Page Thirteen Page Fourteen TO THE SENIORS Oh, dear, faithful schoolmates, 'Tis most time to say good-bye, Soon you'll pass through the open gates Of clear, Galt Union High. For you we'll shed many a tear, And keep you always in minclg Your sweet memories will be here, lVith the schoolmates left behind. No sluggard is among you, Each faithfully does his work, There will not even be a few In life, who are going to shirk. Your teachers, so that you can learn, Give you their very best, That you give your best in return, Is all that they request. Kindle hope's bright Hame anew, Let misfortunes pass you byg Strive with the best that's in you, Be a creclit to old Galt Hi! -Annabel Mullins Senior Class History 'Twas a bright and clear August morning when twenty-eight timid little freshmen mustered up courage to face the three other classes which con- sidered themselves wise and dignified. Some of the freshmen were quiet enough to hear the seniors admiring our class before many days had flown hy. Searcely had one week of school gone by before the freshies found themselves being smeared with the powder, rouge, lip-stick and eye-brow pencils of the sophomores, juniors, and seniors. There were so many of us that the boys were forced to wait until another day for their share because the girls' material was extinct by the time the rounds had been made. Then after marching us a1'ound the building a few times in costumes we were sent to our classes as we were. After it was all over with the upper-classmen con- cluded that we were sports enough to participate in their games. The boys were 'found to be right up to snuff. too. life were beginning to learn how much X-y equalled and some were even clever enough to say Yo soy un burro. Several of the boys, and girls made a fine showing in athletics. Erwin Hauschildt played on the second basketball team as freshies. Vic's speed team for himself as center. Victor Crump, Otto Sargenti, and Clarence 15-Iauschildt played ton the second basket ball team as freshies. Vic's speed and agility astounded the onlookers who were accustomed to his slow gait in the classroom. Some of the girls got out on the basket ball court and showed the rest of us that they were made of some real fine athletic material. Marion Randall's height secured a place for her as forward on the 'first team. Several of the other senior girls were very good players and constituted the main part of the second team. Wlieii the baseball season opened the sophomore class was represented by Clarence llart, Victor Crump. and Erwin Hauschildt. The end of the first year was drawing nigh, much to our faithful teachers' delight. Some had d1'opped out of the class by the thirtieth of August, but nevertheless our chests were expanded when we were called sophomores. Now we are down at good hard work trying with all our might to make as good grades as we had made when freshies. Some were working at mathematics while others were discussing the Reign of Queen Elizabeth and never forgetting to pester Miss VVilson with their nonsense. As sophomores we took an active part in dramatics. Those who took part in the Buzz Show were Gertrude Fawcett, Clarence Hart, Beatrice Orr, and Angelena Sargenti. Otto and Angelena Sargenti were members of the Buzz Staff for the year 1920-21. Seven little sophies played violins, clarinets and saxophones in the orchestra. The girls' basket ball season opened with our girls on the first team, namely, lVl'arion Randall fcaptainj, Beatrice Orr, and Alyce Peterson. Great interest was manifested in girls' athletics in general, VVe made our first attempt to organize a baseball team. This year Victor Crump, Otto Sargenti, and Erwin I-Iauschildt played on the first basket ball team. Otto Sargenti and Ernest W81'd were added to our list on the baseball team. Although we did not win many games the senior boys did creditable work and are on the team yet. We were now planning our work as juniors, which we would be after the vacation was over once more. VVhen school opened our class had dwindled down to eighteen in number, but we still had the reputation of being a good class. Seven of the junior class were on the Buzz Staff. They were Clarence Hart, Beatrice Orr, Marion Randall, Otto Sargenti, Marshall Angrave, Mar- Page Fifteen garet Colledge and Roberta Nichols. ln the junior year, those who took part in the dramatics were the same as those who took part the preceding year. The girls' basket-ball team consisted of three juniors. Marion and Beatrice were forwards and Alyce Peterson was touch center. 'By diligent practice with the remainder of the team we had a very successful season. The girls' baseball team was represented by Lucy l-lart and Marion Ran- dall of the team. Marion was lirst baseman. Otto Sargenti, Victor Crump, and Erwin lflausehildt played on the boys :First basket ball team. 'l'he base ball team was represented by the same junior boys as those who played on the team the preceding season. Time soon rolled by and on August 28th, 1922 there were more than a score of seniors walking about the hallways teasing the poor freshies. We were not too proud, however, to participate in the school events as they same along. Various members of the class were ollicers in the Student Body. They were as follows: Otto Sargenti, Clarence Hart, 'Victor Crump, Marshall Angrave, Margaret Colledge, Beatrice Orr. The Buzz Staff was composed largely of seniors as follows: Clarence Hart, Otto Sargenti, Victor Crump, lvlarshall Angrave, Margaret Colledge, Beatrice Orr, lylarnion Randall, Angelina Sargenti, Roberta Nichols and Gert- trude Fawcett. The girls' lirst basket-ball team boasted of having four seniors on the team. Marion and Roberta Nichols were the forwards, while Alyce Peterson was touch center and Margaret Colledge was one of the guards. The girls took more interest in the basketball than they ever had done before. This year there was just one senior girl on the baseball team. There is a rumor that she played baseball because she did not like to have to quit eating in order not to become lat. l-lowever, she, Lucy l-lart by name, was captain a second time, and took a live interest in the games. The boys started with great hopes of winning the cup, for Victor Crump was one of the forwards. Otto Sargenti and Erwin .Irlauschildt were guards. Each did his part toward winning the cup. There were live seniors on the baseball team and many in dramatics. They were Clarence Hart, fcaptainj, Victor Crump, Qmanagerj, Otto Sar- genti, john Crump, and Erwin lflauschildt. Most of the senior class partici- pated in the circus staged by the class. The seniors were also in the Buzz Show. , Four years have elapsed and we are no longer seniors. 'VVe owe our sheepskins to our teachers and parents who have helped us throughout the four years. Page Sixteen The Class of '24 ln the fall of l921 a group of scared freshmen hopefully started out to untangle the mazes of x-y and go deep into the heart of the Lady of the Lake. In each mind was the old adage Together we stand-- and they stood together and did not fall. The first class meeting was called and Merrill johnson was elected presi- dent. Next the freshman reception was given. Next the freshman took their turn at entertaining, and gave the return reception. The next year almost the same class registered, but we found to our sor- row that we had lost our president, and so we straightway called another meeting and elected Edward Barber as president. This year we gave the freshmen a reception, and how we did enjoy putting it on those freshmen. ln this way the year passed. Last August we came back full of pep and ready for anything. We watched the preparations for the freshman reception from a distance, and looked the scared freshmen over with amused tolerance. Another class meet- ing was called and Richard Bates was elected president, Edward Barber vice president, lnez Ambrogio secretary, Anna Belle Crump, treasurer. The first really important question we were called upon to settle was where we were going to take the seniors on their outing. Arguments and confusion ran riot, and a second meeting was called. Finally it was decided to take them to the Big Trees, and it is hoped a good time was had by all. Isabelle McKinzie, '24, :sf wk af Sophomore Class I-listory Twenty freshmen commenced to attend the Galt High School in August of the year 1921. Lucille Barquist and Rodney Coupe entered later in the term. Helen Small, Dorothy Gower and Iris Thomas joined us this year and we are very glad to have them belong to our class. Margaret Leak, our secretary, has been the artist of our class, Margaret VVise the clever little advisor, and Williaill Fawcett our faithful treasurer. Geor'e Kammerer, our president, generally receives a good grade in history. Bertha Klement is our husky defender, John Shellenbarger our good debator and Lola Thomas is the baby of our class. George Greeno is our angel who always behaves. Chester Crump is the joker, Wliile Joseph Silva is the gentleman. Velma Boessow is quite sleder and Albert Calanchini, our vice president, too. For this reason they are both very good at basket ball. Matilda Altnow is our prittiest with pretty rosy cheeks, Lucille Barquist the wittiest is always on duty. Rodney Coupe is our singer and Elsie Daniels the dancer. Helen Small likes to flirt with the boys, and Josephine Germain is very quiet at times but when she gets to talking she's noisy as an owl. Dorothy Gower is a chatterer but Iris Thomas likes to quarrel with Bruce on the way to school. I cannot tell about myself so will leave it to someone else. -Felicia Gonzales, '25, . Page Seventeen Freshman Class History High School started August 28, 1922. The freshman class numbered 51, the largest class in the Galt High School. One day at noon the freshmen were dressed up in small dresses and their faces painted so that they eouldn't be recognized. This was being done by the cruel upper classmen. Not long after it was announced that there would be a reception to give us our finished degree of initiation and admit us to the student body. The reception was a very grand affair. Everything was trimmed in green ffreshmen inclndedj. The entire evening the freshmen were treated as if they were nothing but mere children. But in spite of this all were happy and enjoyed themselves. About a month later we gave the upper classmen a return reception. 'lt was a Hallowe'n masqueradeg every one was masked and some very pretty costumes were seen. Prizes were given to the best ones. Mr. Hoffinan, as a farmer and Miss Dickenson as a black cat won the prizes. About midnight a delicious supper was served by the girls of the domestic science class. During the basket-ball season, we played several times with the Grammar School and defeated them every time but one. The class officers were elected as follows: Bennie Dresser ...........................................,.. .. ...., ..................... l Dresident James Doyle ................. .. .... ............................... V ice President Marietta Gaim ............,............. ............. S ecretary and Treasurer VVe also organized a society and every Friday in our English class gave short programs. -Marietta Gann, '26.

Cautiously descending, she reached the 'front porch without mishap, and with her suitcase in one hand and her best hat carefully wrapped in a newspaper in the other, slipped away into the darkness. ln the distance she heard the throbbing of an automobile engine, which soon developed into a fast approaching roar. 'llwo lights came into view as the machine swung off the main highway, looking much like the eyes of a fearful dragon. lt was her father, she knew, coming home from the city. She rushed into the large orchard near the road, and slipped away. The auto rolled by and drove into the I-larlan driveway. At last, now she was safe. Soon she would be in the Land of Her I-feart's Desire. Someday, when her pictures were Hashed on a thousand screens and her name blazed in elec- tric lights above the doorway of cinema palaces her mother would forgive her for leaving as she had done. She almost reached the boulevard when the Figure of a man approached her. A scream died in her throat as she recognized him. l did not want to frighten you, Geraldine, I saw you hiding in among the trees and so I followed you I It was Benny Jardith, her 'fatheris foreman,-war veteran. student and adventurer, with always something suggesting the mysterious in his dark eyes. Well, you did! You scared me almost to death. Nobody asked you to follow me l Relief, sarcasm and rebuke blended in her tones, but she wouldn't tell that she was running away. Once he had risked his neck to get a flaming crimson Hower for her, blooming in a mountain crevice. Love? Geraldine had mentally shrugged her shoulders at the thought. She had ambitions. Besides he was far too old. He must be at least twenty- four, and to her eighteen summers, it certainly did seem ancient. l really didn't know it was you, he lied, quickly. You did toog why don't you go back where you belong? Of course she referred to his tiny cottage where he lived alone. VVhere are you going? asked Ben, his tone solicitous. None of your business ! This in a hnal tone of dismissal. Geraldine! There was a pleading note in his voice, new to her: but she chose to ignore it, and walked rapidly away. On reaching the boulevard, she glanced at her watch. Giving it a hurried glance and finding that the citybound stage would soon be there, she hurried on toward the station. Ben, helpless, and worried, turned to go home, feeling that a heavy burden was due him in the morning. ln exactly twelve minutes Geraldine boarded Page Twenty the stage, all excitement. She was alone, but she knew that she would soon be in the land of her dreams. Early next morning, Mr. Harlan knocked furiously on Ben's front door. lien hurriedly dressed and went to the door, trying to assume an air of indifference. Do you know anything of my daughter ? he demanded, hastily. ' Nothing more than she left last night, on the city-bound stage! Ben replied. You made no attempt to dissuade her? he inquired. lt was none of my business, and do you realize that she is already eighteen years of age, and is privileged to do as she pleases F Ben asked, ardently His indifference in the matter and persistent efforts to evade I-larlan's conviction caused the latter to become very angry. XfVell, you might have persuaded her to stay. At any rate, I thought more of you than thatf' he retorted. He slarnmedi the door with an actual force, so unlike him when in a pleasant mood. Mr. and lVl'rs. Harlan began early in the forenoon the search for Geraldine. but only to return late that night without the slightest trace of her. Witli Geraldine's laughter and cheering no longer to be heard and the young folks only dropping in occasionally, their visits growing farther apart, the Harlans' home soon became gloomy and despairing of amusement. A pall of deep gloom enshrouded the beautiful home. 'l'wo weeks later Ben resigned as foreman. All efforts of his employer to keep him from going were fruitless in spite of offering' higher wages. Mrs. Harlan followed him to the gate. lf you see anything of my little girl, you'll surely let us know, Ben P 'llear-filled, pleading eyes were raised to him, and he swallowed a lump in his throat. 'I'he minute l do, you'll hear from me, he promised, patting her on the head. I might be lucky, he added, and then set forth on the quest. Arriving in the city of Los Dalos he lost no time hunting for her. He searched the studios for her: but only to find that the description he gave was like her, but that she had in every case left either an hour, day or week before he came. Sometimes when he was riding in the street cars he imagined seeing her many times, but when the car stopped at the next block he found her gone. or someone was there remarkably resembling her. For weeks and months he kept pondering on the quest and traveling from one city to another and from state to state, in vain for the one he loved. His money almost exhausted, he had to lind work. ln the same desperate manner he earned money to buy food and fare so that he could pursue the runaway girl. From one town to another, boarding freight trains, ever watchful of the face so familiar, he earnestly endeavored to End and bring her home. For four long years this weary search continued. Then one New Year's eve. as he was leaving a brilliantly lighted cafe in San Francisco, he was pushed by the hurrying erowdinto a neatly dressed-young woman. He was astonished to recognize the face as that of Geraldine. Benny ln- Vffelcome in her voice gave him an impulse to take her in his arms, but he refrained from this and laughed happily. V I-low are you, and where have you been P he managed to say. But she, heedless of his inquiry, asked: ' l-low's mother and dad P I really don't know, Geraldine, l left several weeks after you did, he told her. l've been traveling everywhere to find you for them, he added. Page Twenty-one And you made a tramp of yourself for me ? A note of understanding, tenderness, and appreciation, never before manifested in the rebellious, lovable little tyrant he had known. I was glad, indeed, to do it, he tenderly replied. She told him what she had been doing, relating to him all of the incidents regarding the studios, theaters and even washing dishes in hotels and restau- rants to earn money for clothes and food. Her other cherished dreams had fallen in the dust, but with each fallen cherished ideal, an appreciation of home entered, but with stubborn, defiant resolution kept on. I've been a fool, and I'm ready to go home, she glanced up with tear brimming eyes, that is, if they want me ? Want you, why, they want you more than everything on earth. Four hours later they were home, not the lovely home that she had left four years before. Weecls had grown, and windows were unwashed and covered with spider-webs. Ben managed to get in and they put a few things in order, and he said: I'm going down to the Judge and ask him about this and maybe he can find your mother and dad. I don't want to be alone, she protested. There was something in her voice that made him turn suddenly and seeing surrender in her deep blue eyes. he took her in his arms and kissed her endearingly. And I don't ever want to leave you again, he breathed. flf've loved you since I first met you. This place was a wilderness without you and I spent not a happy moment until I found you. Can you blame me for being a tramp P A tramp ! - He bade her an affectionale good-bye and went to the office and found that the place was not to be rented unless the tenants were suitable and they must deposit fifteen hundred dollars as a security. Wlieii Ben returned he told her of the situation. And then she left the room for a few minutes and soon returned with a tiny box. Here, she said. Astonished, Benny didn't know what to say. Geraldine told him all about it and said for him to go and purchase the lease. Several hours later Ben returned with the lease in his pocket, very happy. We got tired of living here, they explained, and sought everywhere for what we just found here a few minutes agolv Mr. and Mrs. Harlan had come to look over the house and had found Geraldine preparing lunch for herself and Ben. Mr. I-larlan left the room and immediately entered. Pale and frightened, he accused Ben, saying: You knew where I had the box, now what did you do with the money ? He was really very angry, but only for a short while. Father! I knew where it was. Taking the lease out of Ben's pocket she said, This is what I made him do with it. Mrs. Harlan said, Now, dear, you owe Benny an apology, and Mr. Har- lan agreed by responding, Indeed I do ! How can I make it right with you, my son ? Ben whispered to Geraldine and she nodded her assent. A vagrant breeze stirred the blooming trees outside, Hlling the room with the sweet scent of the orange blossoms. If you can spare the time, there is going to be an exclusive wedding at the church in just about an hour. If I am not mistaken, the law says that at least one witness must be present. He then fondly took Geraldine in his arms and kissed the blushing maiden full on the lips. So the lure of the stars had faded. -Elizabeth M. Lauchert, '24. Page Twenty-two KNIGHTS OF THE SILENT KINGDOM PART I Yes, Leonard, il know you are the Devere scapegrace but, son, even the wildest black sheep would be ashamed of your actions. There is absolutely no reason for engaging yourself to that joy Thompson. Wfhy, boy, she is nothing but a cheap actress, vulgar and unaccomplished. You must admit, yourself. that there is nothing to her but her looks. Yes, dad, 'I know she's not much there in the brains but her face sure makes up for all that. l know you think you can talk me out of marrying her, just because she isn't the first girl I've been engaged to, but you can't. I'1n going to marry joy. Do you hear me? Marry her, I say, and what's more, ,I'm going to marry her in just one month. I'm twenty-one now, and am old enough to settle down. 'l'm also old enough' to realize that brains and polished manners aren't everything. You don't see theirbrains, but you do have to look at their face. 'llhere's nothing you can say that will change my mind, dad. so you might as well hold your breath. ' After this last burst of childish reasoning, Leonard Devere' left the room. From his easy chair, Leonard's father thoughtfully watched his dark, hand- some son stalk out, and half unconsciously praised his son's easy, athletic stride. Leonard Devere, the oldest son of a very proud, aristocratic, family was, as his father had stated, the family scapegracef' His only ability seemed to be that of getting into scrapes and having impossible love affairs. Mr. Devere, whose voice carried much power in thepolitieal world, did all he could to keep his son from disgrace, but this time it seemed that Leonard's downfall was inevitable. Mr. Devere was still sitting in a deep study over this difficulty when his wife came to the door and inquired in her sweet way: Busy, john, dear? No, Louise, I am just thinking. Come in and help me. Mrs. Devere walked over to his side of the room, a proud example of sweet. gentlewomanly aristocracy. , VVhat is it that worries my husband now? I suppose it is Leonard's affair with that outrageous Thompson girl. Yes, Louise, youfre just right. I have been talking to Leonard about this last foolish engagement of his, but it is a harder affair to tackle than the most difficult political problem. Leonard is getting to be very set in his ways. But why is it that you do not appear worried? Surely you have not overcome your pride sufficiently to even think of accepting a chorus girl into our family as a daughter? Oh, john, exclaimed Mrs. Devere, surely you know me better than that. But I cannot appear worried when my mind is perfectly at rest. You see, I decided several days ago that something must be done immediately to break Leonard and joy up. Since then I have been thinking and I have decided upon a course to take. Wlieii you see Leonard again this afternoon, pretend that you have changed your mind in regard to Joy. Ask our boy to invite joy here for the week-end house party we are giving. But Louise, interrupted john Devere in a puzzled tone, that will only make matters worse. I-Ie will only become more attached to her. Uh, but john l laughed Mrs. Devere, how little you understand human nature. It is absence that makes the heart grow fonder-not intimacy. Leonard will her to his heart's content and he will have a good oppor- tunity to compare her with really eligible girls like Loreen LeMoine, a11d to see how utterly impossible she is in a renned atmosphere. VVhen the matter was mentioned to Leonard, he took the chance eagerly, and the next afternoon, just before dinner, joy appeared at the Devere man- sion. She was immediately shown to her room to dress for dinner. H Page Twenty-three Dinner was to be served late in the evening because some of the guests were tardy and begged leave for more time to dress. The minutes seemed like ages to Leonard as he sat in the large hall, watching for his beloved to appear on the winding stairway. Down came several dignified matrons, then a group of young society buds, and at last he saw Jo-y's familiar form appear. 1-ler ravishing little figure was rather scantily clad in an evening gown of golden gauze, and her feet were covered with golden slippers. Seems to me she might have worn something not quite so stagy, thought Leonard. But just then her pretty, gypsy-like face, shaded with a mass of bobbed, raven locks, was turned toward him. Then he promptly forgot all about the inappropriateness of her gown. As she came closer, he heard her rather coarse voice raised in conversation with the girl by her side. just then Leonard recognized her companion. Loreen LeMoine! VVhy should Joy introduce herself to Loreen, of all girls! The thought did not at all please Leonard. Loreen LeMoine also came from an aristocratic family. She was a rather tall, delicately built girl. Her finely chiseled features were enhanced by her large, soulful blue eyes, fringed with long, golden brown lashes. I--ler hair of spun gold, piled high on her head, only emphasized the youth of her face and figure. Hers was not a face of beauty but rather of sweet. charming girlishness. Leonard knew that she was true blue and she was proving this now. She was doing her level best to be nice to the vivacious Joy but-was Leonard mistaken, or did he catch a look of pitying disapproval in her eyes? The evening had not begun well. Wliy was it that joy, with her gaudy clothes and loud voice, seemed to be so out of place here. Even her pretty face seemed to have a sordid expression. The evening grew Worse as it advanced. Joy had very poor manners. She grew confused about the different pieces of silver ware. Then she told a practically unpresentable story' to the company, but, worst of all, she tried to carry on a perfectly outrageous Hirtation with one of the younger men. Leonard caught several veiled, pitying glances shot her way from aristo- cratic eyes. The son of a Devere pitied? Impossible! l-lis inherited family pride rebelled at the very idea. This was what he would have to endure for years. Wliy is it Joy could not act like a lady once in a while, at least? thought Leonard. She had not shown up in this light when Leonard first met her in her own environment. His mother's plan was beginning to work and show effects. The next day proved to be even more humiliating than that evening and Leonard was really relieved when the house party ended. Wliile at lunch with his father, mother, sister and brother, just a week later, Leonard announced that he had broken his engagement to Joy Thompson. Then Mrs. Devere showed her lack of real tact. She told Leonard how she had foreseen the result and had planned the plot to break his engagement. Naturally, Leonard was indignant. I-le no longer loved joy, if he ever had, but his pride again rebelled at anyone, even his parents, interfering in his private affairs. Angry words followed. Leonard left the luncheon table and went to his apartment. His parents saw nothing more of their eldest son that day nor yet the next. Then a week passed and Leonard did not appear. At last, when months were growing into years, the Devere family realized that Leonard had, indeed, disgraced them. He had practically deserted them in a spasm of anger and had gone forth to seek his fortune-or misfortune. Mr. Devere raved like a lion and of course clisinherited Leonard, while his wife's tender Page Twenty-four heart was filled with sorrow and her nights with tears, over her best beloved's actions. PART Il Six long, lonely years had passed since Leonard Devere had thrown aristocracy to the winds and had gone over the hills and far away, none knew where. The Devere family knew not whether he was dead or living, living in luxury or starvation, married or single. Wfith Mr. Devere the name of Leonard was a forbidden subject, but his gentle wife could not forget and Every night upon her knees she prayed the Lord above, To please bring hack again to her the only boy she loved. Financial matters had not gone well with the Devere family, either. Four years before, Mr. Devere had planned on being elected governor of his state, but through graft and crooked politics he had been cheated out of his office. There was another hidden reason for Mr. Devere's defeat. Before the election, a reporter had asked his views on the Secret Election Rings. Mr. Devere had told the reporter, among other strong phrases, that he considered the Ring a cowardly, criminal organization, composed of vagabondsg a menace to the United States Government, religion, morals, and civilization in general. All this and more, the reporter had duly written up and it was given a prominent place on the first page of all big daily newspapers. M r. Devere realized that public opinion is greatly influenced by the read- ing of newspapers, but he little dreamed that that article could have such an edect upon his election. I-le had heard rumors of a ring organization in his city, but he little guessed that it was to work against him and his honest principles. Now the election was near at hand again, and at first Mr. Devere's hopes had been high, but of late they had dropped down, down to the ground. This year there was to be more corruption among the officials than ever, one of these election rings had been 'formed around Mr. Deverels strongest, weak- inoraled opponent. Lying lectures, propaganda, bribery-practically no stone of graft was left unturned by the ring in their attempt to secure the election of their man. They had their reasons for doing it. High position in big pay was in store for their promised reward. XfVhat chance had the pride of honest hlohn Devere against a stone wall like that? M r. Devere never thought how his honesty and pride were to have their rewards: he little guessed that there was to be an open election ring formed for the protection and support of the honest and high-minded. One evening especially, his spirits were very low as he was carried home in his car. I-lis campaigners had brought unusually disheartening reports this afternoon. There was not a chance left for him in the world. VVhen, after removing the traces of the office and donning a fresh suit, he went down to the living room where he was met by several bright eyed young girls. They were his daughters and some of her closest friends, among whom was l.,oreen Lehloine. VVell, well! VVhat has caused all these pretty eyes to shine so brightly P he inquired as he went into the room. Oh, Mr. Devere, you should read what we have been readingli' exclaimed Loreen. She, like all of Mr. Devere's daughter's friends, was very interested in politics at present, and watched the papers carefully. Mr. Ilevere took the paper from her hands and read the headlines, Big Plot For Croocked Election Disclosed, Secret Service Undermines Political Ring. Then he went on to read that a big secret service agent, who had received a mysterious clue about this ring, had silently taken up his work and so ferreted out the plots and the leader of the gang. Then Mr. Devere saw another big notice stating that as this agent was unknown to the people he feared they might not believe merely his written statement so the next morn- ing at ten o'clock he would give a speech in the public square and would Page Twenty-five reveal everything he had discovered. Then the public could take their choice, the honest side or the dishonest side, good government or a government filled with graft. The next morning Mr. Devere was there along with hundreds of the others. The throng waited impatiently. No one knew this very clever man who had done so much for their government but all were ready to hear him, up to either scorn him or set him up as a public favorite. Finally, on the stroke of ten, the speaker mounted the platform in company with the mayor who was to introduce him. The throng surged forward to fill up every available space and the introduction was lost to Mr. Devere. He stood well back in the crowd and could hardly see this speaker. 'But he could hear his words, he could hear a clear, manly voice, speaking slowly in a way that went directly to the hearts of the people. This speaker spoke on for some forty minutes. He told every important thing he had found out about the ring. He told how the boss of graft was at present reposing in prison. Then when his speech was finished, the people crowded forward to look at and speak to this wonderful man and have the honor of shaking his hand. The crowd carried Mr. Devere onward and almost before he realized it, he stood in front of the speaker. I-le extended his hand and looked up into the face of his son, his lost son, Leonard Devere. Leonard's face grew pale from emotion and their eyes told more than words. As they looked at each other, a great understanding came between the father and son. just as the crowd was pushing Mr. Devere past he cried, Oh, boy, come home l Then he was pushed on. 'X7Vhen he reached home one of his advisers was there to inform him that now since the Political Ring was destroyed, his election was assured. But his real happiness came when, just before dinner, Leonard walked into the living room. It certainly was a happy little party of six that gathered around the dinner table that evening. The party was Mr. and Mrs. Devere, their younger son, their daughter, Leonard and-Loreen LeMoine. After dinner Len. managed to see Loreen alone for a few minutes, just to tell her that he was at last certain of the girl whom he1 really loved and that girl was herself-Loreen. She was the one whose memory had fired his ambition, whose clear, blue eyes had never left his thoughts, but had always looked straight into his own. At length Loreen laughingly admitted that she had always wanted to be a governor's daughter-in-law. She did not add her real thoughts, that Paradise for her would be that of being her Lenny's loving wife. But Len. knew that they would have loved each other had he been a country blacksmith, but wise men keep their thoughts to themselves, and Leonard was wise-and so was Loreen. THE END -Doris Dunne, '23. Page Twenty-six THE HAND OF THE LAW The new fallen snow had transformed the rugged Sierras into a dazzling white fairyland. '.l.'he pines bowed and groaned under their heavy loads of glistening snow while their smaller brothers and sisters were completely cov- ered by the Hakes. Here in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, john Hall had built a little cabin. The little valley was covered by tall, stately pines and heavy underbrush, which hid the rough-hewn cabin completely from view. In the solitude and loneliness of the mountains Hall found safety from the far reaching hand of the law, l-le had escaped from the grim walls of the .Folsom prison, and while in hiding had found this little paradise. After living here a year he ventured forth to find his family and to get provisions. He had been able, by the help of james Bray, a friendly mountaineer, to find traces of his wife and little daughter, Barbara. Cleverly disguised, he spent many mont tracing them and when he found them his wife was dead and his only sister was caring for the child. After much pleading his sister gave up the child, for in reality she cared not for children. Barbara's future did not worry her and if John wished his daughter, he could have her. Sorrowed by the death of his wife, but happy in the possession of his eight year old charge, Hrall came back to the mountains. Wfith the help of Bray he brought a large pack train, loaded with the necessi- ties of life and books, over the high mountains. All this had happened ten years ago, and now Barbara was eighteen, and her father a broken man of fifty, weighed down by the fear of being caught. Not that he feared for himself, for he was innocent of the theft and the murder he was accused of, but what of his lovely, innocent child if the heavy gates of the prison shut him in away from the world once more. No such thoughts troubled pretty Barbara who knew nothing of the out- side world, but what her father had told her, and what she had read. For Hall had spent many a long winter evening teaching Barbara, who now possessed as good and education as he. She had never been even to the nearest town, which was nearly fifty miles south. For Mr. Bray had always bought all their provisions and clothes for them and therefore very few had even heard of john Hall and his lovely daughter. Barbara was becoming very beautiful in a gypsy-like fashion, for she pos- sessed large dark eyes, curly hair and an olive complexion. Roses of health mantled her cheeks, for she was a child of nature. Hardy and tanned as any boy she rode and tramped over the hills with her father. But as this day appeared so bright to all the world, to Barbar it was the blackest of despair. Her 'father lay on the rude bed unconscious and groaning in pain, and she, ignorant of the use of medicine, could only sit beside him and bathe his feverish brow. Although her father had told her of death, she had never experienced it but once, when her horse, Brownie, had stepped in a gopher hole and broken his leg. Her father had been forced to shoot him. She had mourned bitterly but Brownie had never returned to her. VVould it be the same with her daddy now? As she sat there brooding, the door was flung open and a man burst into the small room carrying a leveled gun in each hand. Hands up! he cried, but poor Barbara, dismayed, could only gasp.i The man was young and a star shone on the lapel of his rough mackinaw, and a cap was pulled down low over his dashing blue eyes. A look of dismay and surprise spread over his honest face. But it lighted again as he saw the man lying on the rude bunk. He slowly advanced to- wards the bed but as 1-lall tossed and moaned he seemed reassured and turned to the girl wonderingly. It was Hall, for he knew him instantly by a deep scar on the right cheek, but what of this girl? Miss, excuse me, but I was sent here to see this man on business. As he is ill perhaps you will explain a few things, My name's Knight O'Connell, Page Twenty-seven he said in an embarrassed way, a dull Hush spreading over his face. How could he tell this girl he was here to represent the law in punishing a criminal of renown, evidently her father? Mr. O'C'onnell, I know not what you mean but l will do my best. My father is very sick and I know nothing of the use of medicine, perhaps you can help me doctor him. I--le was taken sick two days ago and he has grown steadily worse. Oh, please help me save my father, who is all I have in the world! the distracted girl cried. O'Connell turned to the man and by examining him and questioning the girl he knew her father must have the Hu. For Hall had gone over to l3ray's shortly before and as they were all sick, he had undoubtly gotten it there. I-Ie did all he could for the unconscious man and then turned again to the girl. Miss-, Hall is my name, the girl said simply. O'Connell, surprised that she should admit her name to him said, Then your father's name is John Hall? Yes, sir, that is his name, but how did you know ? Oh! for the hrst time she noticed the star and realized the lurking danger, You sir, have come for my father on the business Qpointing to the starj, NVhat has my father done that you should hound him to earth? He is as good a man as ever trod this earthf, Here she broke down and O'Connell, realizing it would be best, told her of the crimes her father was accused of. 'lMiss Hall, if your father is innocent as I really think he is now that I have seen you, l will see he gets as square a deal as ever a man got, he said softly. liarbar felt her wrath melting for how could she keep angry at this ir- resitible young man? For she with a ivoman's instinct knew he would do all he could for her father's cause. He told her the whole story and then remembering his horse asked if he might put it in the barn out of the cold. Barbara readily assented and promised to see what she could do in the way of preparing some dinner for him. lVhen fJ'Connell returned, her father was conscious and as he saw the star, cried, 'The Law. The Hand of the Law! But you have come too late, man-chaser, for I am dying, sir, and I am glad of it for il swear before God I am innocent I But the afternoon wore slowly on and the man's condition instead of growing worse seemed to improve. All night Barbara and Knight watched by the bedside, fearful for the outcome, but by morning Hall was decidedly better. Barbara, wild with delight, went about her work singing, her face radiant with joy. OlConnell, faithful always to his duty, realized he must stay here until this man was better and then deliver him over for trail. Barbara un- derstood, although at times her heart would harden against this carefree fellow of the wilds. Handsome he was, with the grace of the man of the open lithe and strong. He was six feet tall. As the days dragged slowly by, Hall recovered. At Hrst he was bitterly ijemorseful at the thoughts of the future but he knew the kid was only doing his duty as every man must. They never spoke of the future except once, when I-Iall told them how he had been accused on circumstantial evidence of stealing ten thousand dollars from a bank. Also the cashier had been 'found shot by the bandit, and this was the crime laid at his feet by Fate. O'Connell, after a month, realizing his duty was becoming harder to per- form each day, for as he fell more and more in love with Barbara, his job of handing her father over for a death sentence or jail, became worse. lflarbara knew she loved him but her whole strong little mind rebelled against it, loving a man who was here to destroy perhaps her father's life. Page 'I' we-nty-eight ller father perceived the conflict which was going on in her mind and called her to him. Barbara, don't blame U'Connell for doing his duty. I-Ie must do it no matter how hard it is for him. If I was placed in the same position I would have to do the same thing he must and will do. I know he loves you, dear, and don't let anything overcome your love, child, for he is a man, a real man, Hall told her. For he had always longed for a son like Knight and now fate seemed to be playing him another cruel joke in giving him the son, who must be the man to give him to the law. The day came for their departure and sorrowfully Barbara packed her few belongings and was ready to leave for the great outside world. Hall, weak yet. but fast recovering. disappeared into his beloved mountains for a few moments, but returned carrying a sack heavily laden. nlinight, l. must ask you as my only friend to look out for Barbara until she becomes accustomed to the world. Therefore I will entrust you with this gold, which if necessary will be enough to provide for her always, he ex- plained sadly. lt's not necessary to ask Knight to do that, daddy, for he will take care of me always without any gold, Barbara responded and then they told him of their plans to be married shortly. Then, children, it will be my wedding present to you. I suppose I will never need it, and if I should happen to need some I know where I can get all I should ever want. Here in the hills I love, I found it, but how I hate to leave them, he said, surveying the lofty mountains. The sun was just coming up over the mountains as they started slowly up the treacherous trail. As they reached the top they could see a man coming up the ascending trail. By slovel lt's Gleason l exclaimed O'Connel. I suppose they thought I was dead by this time. Gleason was my pal, and we undertook many a hard trail togetherf' he explained to Barbara. Gleason advanced and proved to be about O'Connell's age, twenty-Eve at the oldest. Hall, he cried, so you did capture him, but it was wasted energy. Knight, for Hall is innocent. Tim Bailey, you remember him, con- fessed doing it on his deathbedf' Innocent was a beautiful word to john Hall for it meant renewed life, happiness and prosperity. I-le turned to look at his valley far below which new realized he would never leave for long. But Barbara, with a wild ery of joy was in her father's arms. Gleason told them all he knew concerning Bailey's timely confession. After he had finished Hall turned to his daughter and Knight and asked, XVell, do we go on or back ? iycitlllllllll with a glance at his blushing sweetheart, answered, You and Gleason can do as you wish, but Barbara and I are going on. Wfe will be married to-night, if possible, and then I want to take her home to 1ny people, and you too if you will come, he added. turning to Hall. Happy beyond words, Hall replied, We will all go on together for I want to see my daughter married. Then I intend to hunt up my sister, for although she treated me badly, I love her. XfVe never agreed even as children and as we grew older drifted completely apart, now I hope for a reunion and to be able to really understand and love my kid sister. 2 Barbara and Knight were married that night by a quaint, old-fashioned minister. The next morning they left for Sacramento where Knight's people lived, and Hall for San Francisco, where his sister was living when he had last heard of her. He joined them shortly afterwards and then returned to his little mountain home. Knight bought a home in the foot-hills near San Francisco, for Barbara could never learn to like the turbulent city life, but every summer they re- turned to her old home. O'Connel resigned his position as assistant sheriiii, Page Twenty-nine for he shuddered as he thought how nearly he had assisted in taking an inno- cent life by handing Hall over to the courts. Only an accident had Saved Hall for all evidences were against him and he would have been convicted without a doubt. Hall opened up his mine, which was located across the mountains from his valley. The vein of gold ran through the valley where his home was, but never would he allow anyone to prospect there. Across the mountain where he could not see the havoc that was being wrought in the pursuit of gold he cared not. I-le entered the Ranger Service although he had no need of money for the mine made him fabulously rich. But always to him his valley was home and paradise. -Anna Belle Crump, '24, :iz :fr :ie FAIRIES In the forest is a pool, Near a shady nook, so cool There one sees the elfin dance, I-lears the fairies' merry chants.

Page Thirty ILLICIT GOLD jim Leonard was the son of a man, who, like many others of his type, was reaping untold proht from the illicit sale of liquor. jim, a boy of twenty-two, had done everything in his power to try to keep his father from selling brandy and wine to people who thought they must have it at any price. All his Q-Hiorts were in vain, however, and poor jim was very discouraged. i 'llhe chief cause of his concern was Iris Brant, the only girl in the world for jim, and she had the same regard for him, but this bootlegging had marred their happiness for weeks. Unless something was done soon, there would be an open break. The first trouble was when jim and lris had gone one afternoon to a nearby town, and parked the car, a huge blue! Cadillac sport model, on the corner near a cigar stand. They were just getting in to go home when a man at the cigar stand spoke to his companion and said, There's the bootleg car. Do they peddle it over here ? Naw, they just come over here to advertise, and I guess it pays- This was all they heard, for jim opened the cutout and the roar of the motor drowned out the last of his words, but in the minds of both it rankled for davs. lris had a brother, jack, just three years older than she, the same age as jim. A few years before he had gotten in with a wild gang of young fellows and started drinking. All Iris and his parents could do was of no avail and jack was behaving badly again, and for several months past had been getting his liquor at Leonard's. jim had done all he could to prevent his father from selling the stuff to him, but all the answer he got was, VVhat's it to you, anyhow, and he pays just as well as anybody else? lf it's that girl your worrying about just tell her that the kid can take care of himselff' Hut he can't, persisted jim, 'fheis spending all his money, and he'll lose his job if he doesn't cut it out. l-le's drunk all the time. You know yourself that heis as ugly as the devil when he's shot up. Aw, bunk, what's the difference? his father grunted, and walked out, leaving jim looking after him in wonderment. XfVhat was the matter? His old dad never used to be that way. VVas it the money that was pouring in from the sale of liquor that was changing him? The next day, when jim went down to see Iris, she came to him with a worried look on her pretty face. jim, she said, can't you talk to jack and see if he won't cut out this drinking? l-le's lost his job, and I'm afraid he'll do something he shouldn't, to get money to buy liquor. l'll do what l can, dear, but l'm afraid I can't do much with him. I've asked dad not to sell to him, but he says he will if jack wants it. Oh ! she said, l don't see why he sells it. All those kids are going crazy on the stuH, they are not themselves any more at all. I know, said jack, moodily. You know l she cried in a burst of unreasonable anger, then why don't you do something to stop it? You say you don't like it, but yet you are willing to spend all the money he gives you and you go around in the ear. jim could have told her that lots of the money had been spent on her, and also that she had ridden a good deal in the car, but he wisely kept quiet. There was a 1'DOITlCI'll,S silence and then Iris said hotly, You go home, jim Leonard, and don't you ever come near me again as long as you live. jim stared at her in amazement and then gasped, Iris! I said for you to go home and stay there, the girl said, slowly and dis- tinctly. jim turned and walked slowly out of the gate and Iris watched, the hot flush slowly dying from her face. She took a step toward him, and then her pride got the better of her, and she ran into the house. Page Thirty-one The next day things began to happen. jack had come into the saloon, and jim seeing him, went in to talk to him. Hello, Jack! How's the world treating you these days P he said. Rotten, was the surly reply. Give me a drink, will you P .lim could see that he was very drunk now, and another drink would almost put him out, so he opened a bottle of orange crush and pushed it toward him. l-lere you are, he said. jack stod swaying, and looked at the glass of soda. If vou weren't a good friend of mine l'd throw that at you he said. in disgust. I want a drink of brandy, the strongest you've got. .lim pleaded with him in vain, but he would not change his mind. Finally he thought he might as well let him have it, and then he could put him to bed. ' However, he was mistaken, for when jack got his drink, he walked out into the street, and met Billy Dale, a fellow he did not like. They started to quarrel over some trivial affair. This much Jim saw from the window, and he rushed out to stop them, before anything farther happened. By the time he got there they were both uging their Hsts to their best advantage, but poor jack was getting the worst o it. .lim started to interfere, but a bystander pulled him away, crying Let 'em alone l But Brant is drunk. he can't fight, jim argued, trying to pull away. The man gripped him tighter and said, lf he gets a good beating, he won't be drunk again so soon. And .lim had to stand by and see Iris' brother get the beating of his young life. Both eyes were blackened, two teeth were knocked out, his lips and one eye was cut, his nose bleeding and both knuckles bruised. Of course a light like this could not go on very long without attracting a lot of attention, and now down the street ran two policemen, wildly waving their clubs. Billy saw them and made one more lunge at Jack. He caught him full on the jaw, and there was a crack and jack went down limply on the pavement. The policemen arrested Billy, and at a glance at jack, said, Better take him to the hospital, and jim hurried to get his car. Witll the help of some of the other men, he took jack to the hospital,' where it developed that his jaw was broken and his skull cracked by his fall on the pavement. Two days later he died, and Billy Dale, who was an habitue of the same saloon, was tried for murder in the second degree. He was convicted and sentenced to serve thirty years in prison. He was made to tell where he got his liquor, and Leonard's place was raided. No brandy was found, nothing but the spilt stuff on the floor, which had been emptied out to do away with all evidence. Leonard was tried for violating the prohibition law, but was about to be acquitted, for such is the power of money, no matter how it is gained. Public opinion became so strong that the judge thought it necessary to fine him fifty dollars or serve ten days in jail. Jim left town and did not return for tive years. The old town had changed some, but jim easily found his way to the place where Iris used to live. The house was changed some, and there were several children playing in the yard. I-le spoke to a small boy and asked him where the girl was, who used to live there. Oh, you mean the one who married the doctor and lives in the big house now F the little fellow asked. Well, said jim, slowly, I didn't know that she was married or that she lived in a big house now. Has she been married long, or do you know P No, she ain't been married long. She waited for another fellow, my mother said, but he wasn't no good at all, and he didn't go back to her like he should have. So delivering his ultimatum the boy ran back to his play. Page Thirty-two jim walked slowly away. lris married! It seemed impossible. She had a sister who worked in another town, perhaps it was she the boy meant, and had gotten the two: mixed up. VVith this hope in his heart, Jim started out to find Iris. He asked casual questions but could never End out just what he wanted to. At last he was beginning to be discouraged and was wandering desolately along the street, when some one touched him on the arm. Iris, he gasped. Hello, jim! l-low are you? I thought you were never coming back. -lim continued to stare in amazement. lris had not changed a bit. She was just as she was when be left. l'm on my way up to my sister's. She lives in the big house on the hill. Do you want to go with me? Yes. jim said, quickly, but l thought you lived there. A little boy just told me you did. I do, l stay there with my sister, and work in an ofnce here, and if I clon't hurry, l.'ll be late to my dinner. Come, here is my car. 'llhey took the trolley to the loot ol the hill, and walked up to the house. .lim stayed in town for several days, and when he went back to his ranch. Iris was not with him. They sought to forget the unhappy past, but it was very hard. Roth tried to wipe out the misery that the illicit gold had brought. -Isabelle McKenzie, '24. as vp 4 STAR RISE The twilight's gray and misty veil Has fallen on the summer day: And low is heard the night-wiud's wail Blowing the stars to the milky way. Nestling of the summer eve, Dreaming in your shadowy bower, Round your nest the moon-beams weave Fantastic shades that glide and eower. Fairies ol the violet bed. Sheltered 'neath your heart-shaped tents, Drowsily nods each purple head, Enchanted buds of innocence. Now the world is all adheam, Slowly from behind a cloud Glows a golden woven beam, And stars glide out a shimmering crowd. -Doris Dunne, '23. Page Thirty-three HOW ROSS SAVED RICHMOND It was the tenth of November and the Richmond High School football team had won every game it had played in the Nevada County League that season. But one more game remained, before the great inter-county game, which is played on Thanksgiving Day of each year by the winners of the county leagues. Richmond was a sure winner of the Nevada County League even though they lost the game with Davis. This was barely possible as Davis had as yet made no showing during the whole season. Colusa had already won the championship of Colusa County, so there was enthusiasm about the game. Even the rival towns and everybody in Rich- mond looked forward with confidence in its outcome. Coach Wliite brought his team upon the field for practice the afternoon before the game with Davis. He warned the backs to be very careful about their practice for should anyone of them get hurt, it would so cripple the team that their chances with Colusa would not be worth while. The substi- tutes were none of them able to go in behind the line. Practice was almost over and full-back Thomas was making a run with the ball across the field when his toe struck an irregular piece of ground. He stumbled and fell headlong with his right leg doubled up under him. life attempted to rise but could not. The boys rushed to his assistance. Coach Wliite examined the leg and in a despairing voice said, Boys, his leg is broken and our chances with Colusa are gone as we have no one to take his place. 'ljie only ones we have are Anderson and Brown, but they have never played that position. We have always depended on Thomas and there it stands ! The boys carried Thomas to the dressing-roomg a physician was sum- moned and it was found necessary to take him to the hospital at Roseville where the doctor said it would be months before he could be on the field again. Coach Wliite and Captain Johnson remained on the field after Thomas had been carried to the dressing-room. They were discussing the possibilities of the coming games, but without Thomas they had little hope. The only other person on the field was a tall, athletic boy about eighteen years of age, who, up to this time, had been unnoticed by the pair. He stepped forward to where they stood and asked if the full-back had been badly injured and Captain Johnson told him that Thomas' leg was broken. He told them his name was 'Earl Ross and that he had played full-back on the high school team at Everett, Wasliiiigton. He had already registered at the Richmond l-Iifrh School and would beffin Monday. b ta ' b Coach WVhite, knowing the reputation of the Everett team, said that if he came to the held the next morning, he would give him a hurried try-out. lf he made good he would probably use him in the Davis game as full-back. The next morning, when Coach Xvhite came upon the field, Ross met him and told him he was ready to try out. His work so favorably impressed the coach that he at once told Ross he could go into the game with Davis that afternoon. The Davis and Richmond game began at two-thirty p. m. A large crowd from both counties was present, and an especially large crowd was down from Colusa. They wanted to get a line on the playing on their rivals, whom they expected to meet on Thanksgiving Day. Davis put up an exceptionally good defense, as time after time their line held. The game was almost over when Captain Johnson sent Ross, whose playing had been extraordinary, all through the game, around to the right end. He eluded the Davis ends and was soon dashing down the field near the side line for what looked like a sure touchdown. A Colusa boy was seen to dart out from the bleachers toward the side line down which Ross was coming. Ross saw him, hesitated in his run, then started out again, but his moment's hesitation had given a Davis man time to overcome him and down Page Thirty-four him before he reached the goal line. Time was called soon after with the score nothing to nothing. Every one saw Ross hesitate and thought he had thrown the game, and even Coach Xafhite looked upon him as a quitter. I-Ie was hooted and, as the team went from the held, he was left alone to come to the club house when- ever he liked. Captain ,lohnson was near him during the game and heard the Colusa boys exclaim, 'tI'rofessional! Professional l After the boys had dressed, Ross started home alone, and Captain Johnson hurried up to him and laid his hand on his shoulder. Ross turned and they met face to face. johnson said, Old man, I heard those fellows say profes- sional to you. NfVhat did they mean P Ross replied, They meant that they consider me a professional because I played on a team in VVashington where most of the players received money for playing. But on my solemn oath I did not get a cent and am innocent of his accusations, but I guess I will have a hard time convincing them after what happened today. Those fellows so sur- prised me that I was struck dumb, and I really didn't know what I was doing, but I can proof that I am not a professional. I feel that the coach will not give me another chance. Ross, said johnson, l believe every word you say and if I can get you in on that Colusa-Richmiund game I am going to do it. The dav of the big game was almost here and everything was in readiness, Ross was barred by Coach Wliite as a quitter. Anderson, the substitute was put in Thomas' place as full-back but his work was poor. The game was con- ceded to Colusa by even the strongest Richmond boosters. ' Captain -lohnson had begged and coaxed the coach to overlook Ross' actions and let him play. The best he could do, however, was to get his permission to let Ross practice and at the game to wear a suit as a substitute. The dav of the big game came and all Richmond was excited but little hope was held of winning the game. The Colusa players and boosters had arrived and at two-thirty the Colusa team came on the field. A few minutes later the Richmond boys came on the field and were wildly cheered. At the sound of the gun Richmond kicked off and Colusa carried the ball back thirty vards. Richmond line held good, but their backs could not do a thing. Time after time Anderson had a chance, but was too slow. They were driven back yard after vard by Colusa and only the iron line of Richmond kept them from scoring. The first half ended with no score, but Richmond line could be seen to weaken from the awful work it was compelled to withstand. The second half came and the Richmond team could do nothing but defend its territory. They had no hope to score as they were all the time on their own territory and close to their own goal line. At last Colusa forced them to their twenty yard line directly in front of their goal posts. The Colusa rooters yelled for a field goal. Richmond braced, but were not able to break through and block the kick which sailed over the goal between the goal posts and made the score three to nothing in favor of Colusa. There was now only a short time to play and Colusa kicked the ball far into Richmond's territory. Anderson caught it, but was too slow to carry it back and was downed on Richmond's twenty-live. Only three minutes yet to play and Richmond on their ten-yard line. Captain johnson was desperate. Time was called for an injured player. johnson called Coach Vtfhite and pleaded with him to put Ross in even though there were only three minutes left. VVhite said, No, Johnson. No quitter can play even if we lose the game. Johnson still pleaded and finally the coach consented and they called Ross. The big fellow trotted over to johnson who put his arms around him and said, Earl, l know you've got the goods, but maybe it's too late. If there's a chance, I know you will take it and get by. Don't let anyone stop you. It's a long run, but I'll be with you. Remember the signal l Page Thirty-tive VVhen the teams lined up for their final struggle Colusa was all confident that it was Richmond's ball. Captain johnson called the signal slowly Thirty-three, twenty-two. nineteen. The ball shot back to Ross for a long end run. He charged past Colusa's right end like a wild man. Captain johnson like a flash reached his side to act as interference. Roberts dropped in behind him, protecting him from a tackle from the rear, and with this iron interference, Ross sped down the field. Johnson at his side bowled over every Colusa man who tried to stop them. On they rushed and soon there was no Colusa man who could possibly over- take Ross, and with all the strength that his body could master he hnished that long run and fell with the ball behind Colusa's goal line just as the gun announced the end ofthe game. The score was six to three in favor of Richmond. The great crowds in the bleachers rushed upon the field and literally smothered Ross with affectionate embraces. l-le was carried on the shoulders of the boys from the Held to the club house where Coach VVhite was waiting. Captain Johnson rushed up to the coach and yelled, Coach, l knew this fellow was no quitter, but you wouldn't believe me! NVhat have you got to say now ? Wfhite walked over to Ross and putting his hand on his shoulder, said: My boy, forgive me. I know now that what you told johnson is true, but 'f could not convince myself after your action in the Davis game. You surely are an honor to the school, and I wish we had more like you. Colusa protested the game on Ross' account, but within a few days, papers that came from Everett proved that he was innocent of any professionalism and the game stood as it was. Ross is now playing on the University team, but always writes to Capt. johnson, never forgetting to mention that hard won game at Richmond. -james Christian, '24. REVEILLE Oh, never should this land forget Those heroes who are resting yet, Upon those shell shocked battle fields Vlfhere barbarous hosts were forced to yield.

Page Thirty-six THE RUHR INVASION France, after waiting four long years for Germany to pay her debt, seized the Ruhr basin as hproductive guaranties . France is technically within her rights according to the Versailles treaty. France realizes that if she doesn't get help from somewhere, that she will be bankrupt inside of live years, and she intends that Germany is to be the one to help her. 'llhe war brought on by the German Government, has left the lands of France devastated and practically worthless. lt will take years for France to restore the land to its original value. Germany so far has paid France only two billion dollars while France has already taken out of her own scanty treasury seven billion live hundred million for the purpose of restoration of her lands and building of her public schools, etc. Of course Germany claims that her people are poverty stricken and it is impossible for her to pay France. But Germany's lands were left untouched and the German people have their property and homes, but what about some of the French? Many of their homes have been ruthlessly destroyed, and the future holds only poverty and famine for them. France as the victorious nation can certainly expect Ger- many to at least help pay the damage she alone wrought. Germany claims all of her money is in the hands of the profiteers and monied men and she is helpless. France replies that she will help Germany collect from these men and this is what the invasions of the Ruhr Basin means. It is not the invasion of Germany but simply serving a writ on Stinnes, Thys- sen and Krupp-llohlen. France maintains that Germany has taken all her gold and hidden it in vaults and therefore has cheapened her other money until it is worthless. 'llhe German mark before the war was worth about twenty cents and now its value is mere nothing. France may be mistaken in thinking that Germany has the necessary money, but if Germany was sincere and wished to live up to the terms of the treaty, she would at least provide the fuel and other materials that the peace treaty provides that Germany should deliver to France. 'llhere is certainly no moral reason why France should forgive and have any consideration for Germany. Germany in the last war, ruthlessly destroyed the French coal-pits without any sane reason. Also France has been invaded on an average of once every lifty years since the beginning of the Christian era. .l-ler lands have been devastated, her people murdered and her industries hurt. ln the great Franco-li'russian Wfar, Germany invaded France, causing all sorts of horrors, etc. llut after humiliated France had signed the treaty, Germany still forced her troops on the French. Not until every dollar of the war debt was paid did Germany withdraw her men. The French people drained their purses to the last cent to get rid of the hated Germans and perhaps if conditions were reversed now Germany would End some way to pay her huge debts. Some of our prominent citizens believe that either France had to aequiesce in letting Germany escape payment or act. They also think that if the United States was placed in the same position France is in that she would have acted the same. France in the four years that sho has waited has taxed her own people 'four times what the Germans have been taxed. France believes that Germany has not taxed her people at a high rate for some purpose which has been deliberately studied out, and a purpose which will help Germany some time in the future. France has tried everything but force and at last she has been compelled to use that. I-ler action will at least relieve the suspense of the world in regard to the paying of German war debts. Germany is better supplied today with men than France. Relatively her loss of man power was less during the war than Frances'. The latter believes Page Thirty-seven Germany has secret agents working with Russia and Turkey. It appears to be Germany's policy now to conquer the world by a campaign of evasion and shiftiness instead of by war and force. Ever since the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, German officials appear to have been plotting as to how Ger- many could escape payment. It is a well known fact that Germany has been and always will be in the habit of doing what will benefit their own interests and the French believe that as soon as the German leaders comprehend what is best for their interests they will do all in their power to aid and further their own causes, which will incidentally aid France. France's move in seizing the Ruhr Basin may well be compared to a bill- collector or a sheriff. France as creditor realizes she may only be putting an additional expense on her own people, but she is only taking the risk every creditor does, and odds are in her favor and she is expectant of success. The German industrialists' wealth in foreign countries alone amounts from one billion eight hundred million to nearly live billion. On this money Ger- many has never been able to collect full taxes and France intends seeing that the full amount of taxes are paid. France intends seizing the property of these men and seeing the taxes are paid which Germany has been unable or un- willing to do. For if Germany only got the taxes off these men's profits she could balance her budget and set herself on the way to economic recovery. Stinnes and others of the German monied men have been paying the pro- ductive case in depreciated currency, but have been selling their products on gold basis abroad. They then invest the forthcoming money in foreign coun- tries and therefore escaping taxes. Even in Germany they proht by the taxes for they pay in depreciate currency which amounts to practically nothing. A strike in this district would hurt both French and German industries. But the French will get all the coal above the ground while Germany can only develop her lignite deposits, but these are very poor. Germany cannot hope to vie with France in buying from foreign countries. As for managing the mines the French may have a hard time but they have home talent and experi- ence. If the Germans strike the French can Hood the mines with foreign labor-Poles, Italians, Czechs, etc. Premier Poincare knows how these men are dominating over the govern- ment and he says he is tired of dealing with the puppets at Berlin, but wishes to deal directly with these men. France will be aiding the German middle- class even more than herself and as soon as they realize this France's task. The French hold eight hundred great metal, dye, mining and chemical plants in the Ruhr. Germany is not only threatened by lack of coal, but also by famine. The only weapons Germany has left are strikes, and revolutions, but it appears to be more a war of endurance. lt is also believed that even now all the Germans are not hostile to France and if France forces the indus- trialists to do their share she will receive the thanks of the middle class. There are three danger zones from Germany's standpoint-VVemel, Bava- ria and Ruhr-but the Ruhr is the most dangerous. The French have an- nounced that they will collect the forty per cent tax on all production, which the German Government has not collected. Germany claims that by trickery they have gotten thousands of tons of coal into Germany while practically none of it was going to France, but they admit that the French will take measures to prevent anything like this. Germany admits that there is no union in her government but she fears France wants to annex the Rhineland. Germany is separated as in former days with a weak government at her head. Premier Poincare responds to Germany's accusations saying that the French will occupy the Ruhr until every cent of reparations is paid and not a day longer. But the occupation of the Ruhr will bring results, a crisis of some kind and the question now is, VVhat P u -Anna Belle Crump, 'Z-l. Page Thirty-eight ff'- ff , ,ms sf, is-iff' J 'f ' I 'X EFFICIENCY A simple definition of efnciency is the ratio of effect produced to the energy expended. .lt is one of the things in this World that we must aim for as it will bring success, and through the latter, happiness and prosperity. 'llo acquire eliiciency, we must do our best, and it is only when we make the greatest possible effort that we know what is possible for us to accomplish. VVe may strive to be edicicnt and suffer many defeats, but in the end if we keep the little motto, 'l'ry, try again, before us, we will soon reach the stage where we don't waste our efforts. Then is when we can secretly exult in our success or rather efficiency. One must be efficient to make a success in business whether an employer or an employee. lf you are in the employ of anyone you cannot afford to make mistakes for often they are very costly. Personality has much to do with efficiency. 'lfhis means not only strength but also tact and humor. Therefore every one should try to cultivate a strong and pleasing personality when young, for by so doing he will succeed in winning life's battles. ln our school days we are freed from much of the responsibilities we will find awaiting us in the outside world. But it is the student who tries and is efficient in his school work who will undoubtedly be more efficient and suc- cessful in later years. Efficiency and success are synonymous terms. -Anna Belle Crump,' 24. AMERICANISM Americanism is a term which belongs to America only. This term means a great deal to each and every good citizen of our country, America. Wliat does Americanism mean? It is no more or less than living up to the stand- ards of good citizenship. ln order to be a good citizen it is necessary for an adult to accept more obligations than privileges. A child does not have as many obligations as privileges. A child who does not obey its parents when it is old enough to lgiow that it should, is a law-breaker and is not living up to the requirements of good citizenship or Americanism. lt is still worse for the parent to evade the laws of the country and then expect the child to do the proper thing after having such an example set for him. VVe have to go a long way to make these illegal, but nevertheless it is done, and the time is coming when we may be sorry that we did not abide by the laws. Voting is an obligation or duty of every person who is qualified. Anybody who can vote and does not is shirking his duty and should be considered worse than the person who is not qualified and would like to vote. It is our duty as Page Thirty-nine voters not to elect zi friend who is incapable of iilling the ofhce for which he is running. As Americans we should be patriotic at all times. Always put America before yourself. As good citizens who wish to build up our country we should plan an important part for the foreign children who belong to naturalized citizens. Can you imagine what Anierica would be like if :ill the different classes of people do not acquire our customs? W'e never want to see it in reality and we will not. In short, Americzlnism is that which stands for the good of our country and ourselves, and tends to uplift rather than destroy Ainerica, Our Country. -Lucy E. Hart, '23.

He looks them all over and the best he selects, And tells them the things he really expects, There's where the game begins. The training is earnest and steady in pace, And soon makes them lit for the hard pennant race. lt teaches the skill and the crafty assault That will bring the proud Hag to the City of Galt. rl1l1C1'C,S where the game begins. Gsborn, the Czar of vociferous band, VVith encouraging yells is always on hand. He gives them the axe from the sound of the gun And never lets up till the victory is won. 'l'here's where the game begins. Otto. our captain, is clever and bold, And governs the team like the soldiers of old. He discovers weak spots and watches his chance Through the smallest of opening the ball to advance. There's where the game begins. Kelly and Vic in their forward positions Live up to the mark in our high school traditiong And quickly aside their opponents they bowl As they shoot the ball straight through the hoop of the goal. There's where the game begins. Guards Kenneth and Irwin like sentinels stand, To see that no shots in our basket can land, And try as they will this position to alter, These lads stand their guard like the rocks of Gibraltar. 'l'here's where the game begins. -james Christian, '24, Page Fifty-six SCHOOL SONG Parody on Roola-Boola Some hunclrccl miles from 'Frisco town, 'l'hcre lies our hurg of Galt, Ancl our team's taught all the teams around 'l'o take clcfeat with salt, No other school has as much jazz As olcl Galt Hi School has. just listen to us yell tonight, Fight, fight, hght, hght, Fight, light, tight. iight, Fight, fight.

S ubstitute Guard Galt, 265 Lodi, 12 Galt played Loch the first practice game of the season, on the local court and won. 'l lns showed up many weaknesses, but gave Coach Barton a chance to coach the team. Galt, 21g San Andreas, 19 This was the first game away from home, but Galt showed great class and won, although hindered by the smallness of the court. ' Galt, 145 Stockton, 26. 'X Galt journeyed to Stockton and played the second team of that high school. The boys made a good showing, although all of their team was not able to be on the field. Galt, 243 Ranger Club, 22 The Ranger Club of Sacramento came to Galt expecting victory, but after a hard fight the home boys succeeded in winning. ' Galt, 305 Lodi, 42 Galt gave Lodi a return game and lost, and again two of her players were disabled. Hard luck in the way of injuries appear to try to injure Galt this year. Galt, 36g Preston, 9 The Preston boys came to Galt and met defeat at the hands of the locals. This game showed up the real stuff the boys were capable of doing. Galt, 32g American Legion, 32 This game with the town team resulted in a tie at the end of the second half 30 up. Five minutes more play was decided on. Each team during this time shot one field goal, making the final score a tie. Page Fifty-eight UPPER ROW-Mr. Barton, Bennie Dresser, Chester Crump, Erwin Hauschildt, Kenneth Taylor, Elwood Tufts.

The brilliant teamwork of the whole team gave the rooters a chance for much cheering. Galt, 20 5 Courtland, 13 The second league game resulted in another win for Galt. The game was very exciting and kept the rooters full of pep. Galt, 325 Elk Grove, 20 Galt met her old rival, Elk Grove, in the local gymnasium and defeated her easily. This was the most exciting game, for it was the one that was expected to partly foretell the future. Referee Linquist held the game down strictly to rules, although he was forced to remove several of the boys on both teams from the field in so doing. Galt, 235 San Juan, 20 Galt again met San Juan and this was the fastest and most exciting game of the season. This practically clinched the pennant for Galt. Galt, 135 Courtland, 25 Galt went to Courtland, but duel to the outbreak of influenza among the players and to the small court, Galt lost. Galt, 465 Placerville, 18 Placerville team came to Galt and suffered defeat. This game was so one- sided that much of the interest was taken from the frame. Galt, 275 Elk Grove, 18 U Galt went to Elk Grove for the last game. lf Galt 'won this game it gave her the pennant: if she lost it she would be tied with San Juan for first place. The first half ended with Elk Grove leading. The last half was where Elk Grove made her mistake by putting three men on Crump and Sargenti. Calanchini profited by this and shot eight of the goals. Fine rooting was a feature, of this game and it meant Galt lrli had won the silver cup. The second team succeeded in winning six out of eight games played. They duplicated the hrst team in losing only one league game during the season, and here again M r. Barton's coaching showed up favorably.

Galt, 165 Ranger Club, 12 A fast Sacramento quintet came to Galt to carry off the honors, but Galt finally triumphed in a fast and exciting game. Galt, 17 5 Preston, 7 This time through the good work of the two guards, Clarence Hart and John Crump, the Preston boys were not allowed to put in a field goal. Their seven points coming from fouls for fouls were a feature of the game. Galt, 185 Courtland, 8 This was their first league game of the season and was played at Galt. The game was fast and the boys showed remarkable team work. Page Sixty Galt, 153 Elk Grove, 4 Elk Grove came to Galt and suffered defeat. Both teams were C01lS1ClC1 ably handicapped as several players on both sides were unable to play as they had to substitute in the hrst team game. tors.

Galt, 343 Elk Grove, 2 Galt went to Elk Grove and this game proved so one-sided that the main interest lav in seeing how high a score Galt could run up. Coach Barton put in all of his substitutes and gave them a chance to prove their work. Bates starred in the laughable game by shooting eight goals in the short time he played 'llhe baseball season has inst commenced. so there is little to say. Galt, 14g Preston, 17 This was the first practice game ol' the season and played at lone on the Preston diamond, which was verv fast. ' Galt, 2g Placerville, 1 Galt met lllaccrvillc on the McKinley Park diamond in Sacramento for the lirst league, game and won. lt was a fast contest, Hart allowing only three scattered hits and no errored runs, while our boys gathered ten hits off the Placerville hurler. Galt, 33 Elk Grove, 6 lille Grove came to Galt and succeeded in winning the contest by a rally in the ninth inning when the score was tied three up. Galt, 4g Courtland, 6 'I'he boys went to Courtland and! came back with that sad score. They mentioned something concerning a terrible diamond and perhaps it was. Galt, 93 Town Team, 6 'llhe town team came up for a practice game and to their disappointment came out at the small end of the score. Galt, 123 Lodi, 14 l.,odi came to Galt for a practice game early in the season. The boys showed good class and had a big lead up to the last inning. Lodi rallied in the seventh and tied the score and won in the eighth as this was a seven- inning contest. Galt, 125 Courtland, 2 Courtland came to Galt for a league game and lost. Hart pitched a tight ball all the way through, the runs being counted on errors. The boys showed a remarkable improvement in their hitting ability.

Acampo, 205 Galt, 18 VVe went up against a very fast team when we played Acampo, but held the score in our favor until the very last. lt was a very good game, full of pep all the way through. P. G. 8: E., 23 Galt, 11 VVe next played the Pacific Gas Sz Electric Company from Sacramento. Owing to the good coaching of Miss Dickenson and Miss Bishop we kept the score in our favor. , Courtland, 323 Galt, 23 Owing to sickness and absence from practice we had very little practice for this game. Although we were defeated, we came away with no hard feelings, but determined to put in some good hard practice for the next game. San juan, 4g Galt, 44 This was the first game we had played on an outdoor court but even so we were victors. Community Club, 24g Galt, 14 The Community Club was a very fast team and a strong one, which shows plainly in the score. lt was a very good practice and showed us our weak Darts. I Placerville, 195 Galt, 12 Placerville had a very fast team, but our girls put up a hard fight, but owing to an unfair referee, we lost. Elk Grove, 0: Galt, 2 This game was forfeited because Elk Grove had no girls' team. VVe also played some inter-class games which were very good and afforded much amusement. Much interest was taken in these games. The basket ball season came to a close all too soon for the Galt team, for we all enjoyed the games very much. BASEBALL About the First of April the baseball team was organized with Lucy Hart as captain, and Lucille Barquist as manager.
