Junior Chronicles Now it came to pass, on the seventh day of the eighth month in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and sixteen, that twenty-four wise men and women returned to this land after a long journey. And it so happened that they chose one Elbert Kelsey to lead them over the rugged paths. Loie, of the House of Francis, they selected to give him gentle advice lest he err in performing his many tasks. Now there was in this group a certain maiden, Levia by name, third daughter of Bert Lanini. To this damsel they did give their gold and silver lest it be lost or stolen. And straightway they made Doris Mae recorder of all events, so that their posterity might know of their brave deeds. And it came to pass in the second month that a dreadful malady fastened itself upon these people and caused them to act in a ferocious and barbarous manner. Philosophers and wise physicians did examine them and did declare the complaint to be football in the men and basketball in the women, and they did tell the leaders that the disease must be contagious. But it so hap- pened that these wise men could offer no remedy and the teachers of these people awaited the results with fear and trembling. And as they did await the result they saw Leland, the fourth son of Henry Frederick Harbers, suffer severely for this disease, and likewise did Ross, the brother of Raymondg Luther Thomas, of the House of Hansen, and his follower, George, third son of Peter Becker, fell victims and did grow fearless and warlike. And after they did wait ten long weeks their members were restored to them, and lo! none were seriously injured. Likewise it came to pass that one damsel Eva, of the House of Jennings, second daughter of Edward Jennings, was afflicted with the dire disease bas- ketball. Little hope did the elder brothers and sisters have for her recovery, yet after several months she was restored to her normal condition and there was great rejoicing throughout the land. And mark you, these people of Junior Land did send forth their members to act what they were not, in the great play of the Universe, and they did select for slaughter one drama of much fame, The Private Secretary. Lo, the multitude that did witness the play did cry aloud, How splendid and as- tounding this work ye have done! And their heads did swell with one accord at the commendation they did receive. And now it came to pass a dispute arose among the tribes of the different lands. They decreed that their youths should handle sword as well as the pen. In order that the dispute be settled it was determined that the question be debated. Two wise men, Leland, from the House of Harbers, and Elbert Olin, from the House of Kelsey, were selected as representatives of the Junior tribe. ,J And behold they did labor hard, but their minds became weak and tired. The most learned physicians were summoned, but they knew not what to do. The results were awaited with much anxiety, and after several months of strife and turmoil everything was put asunder and these wise men did fully recover. Now, on the eleventh day of the fifth month, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventeen, this tribe did hold a great festival and did send invitations to the tribe on the mount above them, and to those of the north, east, south and the west, saying, Come ye, and join in the dance with us. And the guests did come as bidden, and great was their joy when they saw the preparations made for their amusement by the people of Junior Land. Now it so happened that after a year of hard labor the members did cease from their toil and went far and wide that they might enjoy peace and quiet for many days. LEVIA LANINI, 'l8. Z3
