GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL JOURNAL June - - 1920 Edited by the SENIOR CLASS OF GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA In grateful and sincere appreciation of all that he has done for Girls High School during his wise and kindly administration as principal, we, the class of June 1926, on behalf of the entire student-body affectionately dedicate this Journal to DR. ARTHUR W. SCOTT Farewell Years rich in kindness and good deeds you've given us, And all the wisdom of your gracious life, And now, we cannot say farewell. Why should we say farewell to one whose kindness Will ever linger in our grateful hearts? Why say farewell when absence will not serve I'o break the bonds of long years’ binding, Nor time erase the memories well guarded. Here, in our remembering hearts? n i 1 . N., June, 26.

H. S. Gertrude and Esther are beginning to talk; they are on the big-little debating team. Esther, Nora, and Geraldine, and lots of other little girls play around quite a bit at a nice game called baseball. Lulu has developed good husky lungs, and Susan Dixon has the makings of a real student. In fact, if we were to name all the unusual girls in June, 29, we would just give the entire roll of the class. .................................. They tell us we’re children, and such like, But we really are grown up and tall. We’ve discarded our dolls and our jump-ropes, Play with “jacks” ? oh, no,—not at all. “Don’t judge by the outside, the inside,” That’s a very good saying, we’re told. Oh, if you only could look inside of our heads You’d think us a hundred years old. Respectfully submitted, A. FRESHMAN.

And as you have stood in front of a mirror especially an old one—have you not often wished that it could unfold to you the reflections that it holds? If you are lucky, some day you may see in the ante-room of the office a great book with the inscription, “The Mirror,” engraved in gold letters on its black cover. This “Mirror” has the power to unfold to you the history that Girls High has imprinted on its pages for the past five years. It can show you the school’s activities, its promi- nent people, and the records of their accomplishments. It can picture for you the growth and development of Girls High as a whole, and of each part of the school. PAGE FORTY MIRROR STAFF Top Row----D. GOODDAY, V. WARWICK, M. TORMEY, R. DOUGHERTY, E.

Moreover, it will portray its own enlargement, the increase in the fineness of its perception, and in its value to the students. It will demonstrate that the Girls High “Mirror” is valuable not only as an instrument for reflecting student activities, hut also as an organ for the expression of student opinion. If you will gaze into those pages which gradually unfold the accomplishments of the present and the plans for the future, you will find that all magic looking-glasses arc not in fairyland, and that Girls High has the most wonderful “Mirror” of all. pac;e forty-one Mary Anne Xeustader President Girls High Student Body STUDENT BODY OFFICERS MARY ANNE NEUSTADER GLADYS LACKMAN ......

Kindly old Hen will not object if I, the Sports and Pastimes Association, write an autobiography, too. On April 19, 1920, eighty-five girls met and named me, choosing Ethel Valencia for my first president. Since then, I have gained in numbers, and in the variety of athletics I offer. My parties and hikes have helped to create a spirit of good comrade- ship. 1 give a banquet for the distribution of awards and installation of officers. I do my bit towards making the P. T. A. stronger by interesting the parents of my girls in my work. I try to maintain high}standards of citizenship, scholarship, and sportsman- ship. These things have justified my existence and have given me reason to look forward to a long life crowded with the happiness that service brings. PAGE FORTY-FOUR WjD . „ Rose Teri.in, debatinc Flo Goi.dstone, dramatic DEBATING CLUB Really it’s hard to know just what to say To honor debating the right sort of way. We take off our hats to the things they have done Not only in work hut also in fun. Not alone in Dramatics, do Debating girls shine Their work in debating indeed has been fine. They have won once again the bright glories of yore, Thanks to “Dippy,” and Trotski, and the RIG FOUR. DRAMATIC CLUB Dramatic Cluh has e’er been a success, But this term has really exceeded the rest. They represented our school in the Shakespeare fete, And twice again gave their play after that date. The members likewise presented a play That made the girls laugh till breathless were they. With Flo for a Pre.x,” Mrs. Tharp for a coach. Their work indeed is past reproach. Ci.emekcia Santa Cruz International Marion McLbaren Speech Frances Olsen Speech ALPHA AND OMEGA Only through making folks understand Can Dame Peace be always the one in command. So this is what our splendid Club aims to do— To reach other nations and learn things quite new. To get well acquainted, and know each other, To love not oneself, but also our brother; Regardless of country, of color, or creed, We’re all one family and brothers indeed. INTERNATIONAL CLUB To overcome defects in action or in speech Is one of the hardest goals a girl can reach. Some girls have joined, about thirty strong— In a club where they found out just what was wrong. They’re learning quickly, and it won’t be long Until they are orators—Here ends my song.

You’ve heard how we sang here on “Good Music Week.” ’Twas really enough to make Schumann-Heink meek. DANCING CLUB Ours is the club where you learn how to dance, And cultivate grace, the world to entrance. This term we were fairies in Titania s train, We danced all around where our Queen had lain. Perpetual fairies we are all going to be. We should, with our training, now don’t you agree? PAlJE FORTY-SEVEN Mildred Gather Edna F. Morris Giri. Reserves Banking GIRI. RESERVES 1 he song of our club is “Follow the gleam.” It’s the song of our lives, our one perfect dream. If with service and joy we shall start life’s great fight We will some day be found at ambition’s height, And the small gleam will then be a great Hood of light. “THE BANK” Under the auspices of the Anglo-California Trust Company, we have organized for your benefit a method of putting a little aside each week, to help you when you need it. The opportunity to open a bank account is offered to all students and teachers. Few lower classmen realize the expense attached to being a ‘‘high and mighty,” and many of our respected seniors wish that they had opened bank accounts when they were lower classmen: so come on Thursday, during the X periods into Room 209. We, of the banking staff, welcome a visit from you, and shall be glad to explain and help vou with any question you may have. A great deal of credit is due to the girls who so ably carry on this work. They are: President, Kdna Morris; Vice-President, Hetty Nagel; 'Fellers, Alice Ferguson, Vir- ginia Leary. Alice Reinhart and Frances Peabody. i I'AGE FORTY-EIOHT Frances Hart Elaine Lipman Orchestra Jazz Band ORCHESTRA Their President s name is Hart, 1 heir Director is Mrs. McGlade, So you see that’s a pretty good start.

They aim to find pleasure in all that they do Not alone for themselves hut also for you. The joy that they find is in good, clean sport, And the members that they have are the all-around sort. When enjoying good times at Camp Wasibo, On their lips is found the word “Wohelo,” So is it at lessons, so is it at play; “Wohelo’s” their watchword by night and by day. “Wohelo” for work, for health, for love, For all that is fine on earth and above. With this for a slogan and the “law of the fire,” A Camp Fire Girl strives towards her heart’s desire. PAGE FIFTY PAGE FIFTY-ONE DEFINITIONS EXTRACTED FROM FUNK.

A ruff is merely clownish stuff When age and dignity set in. A ruff should meet a youthful chin. And where are your songs, my Pierrot ? A lady stole them long ago .... MADELEINE VAN NOSTRAND, June, ’26. LOVE “I love him,” she sighed to the moonlight. ‘‘I love him,” she sighed to the breeze. And she ran to where he waited In the shadows cast by the trees. Ran at his silvery whistle, Longed for his eyes, young and shy, Yet she found him faunlike, elusive; Felt the rise and fall of a sigh. Half despairing, she spoke of a future, Of a home, work, and of play, Knew his soul in his eyes dreamt of freedom, Felt his thoughts to be drifting away. And she sent him away in the moonlight To the fragrance of life, and delight. Sobbed aloud in the pain of her heart-break, “I love him,” she cried to the night. FLORENCE NICOLAI, June, ’26. I’AOB F1KTY-KOUK TEMPLE DREAM In Calcutta the incense is burning In the temples of strange, mystic rites, And the dancing girls, swaying and turning. Are dark jewels of the warm fragrant nights. Ivory and gold, softly gleaming, And sandalwood mingled with musk, Set the priests and the maidens to dreaming, In the lengthening shadows of dusk. Dreams of worship and love, while slowly, The temple bells, softly agleam. Tell to each of the vows that are holy; Of the future that lures like a dream. FLORENCE NICOLAI. June, ’26. DISILLUSION You, who might be the breath of Spring Are content to be . . . most anything. You who broke the morning dew Of my dreaming—Say, can you Go restore a wild wasp’s sting, Go repair a spider’s swing— Put again the tangled lace Of a milkweed in its place? Can you devise a fitting token For the ideals that you have broken? Half of Life and all of Death Lie in one warm, hasty breath. MADELEINE VAN NOSTRAND, June, ’26. I’AOE FIFTY-FIVE MISS BESSY BELLE ELL, begorry, if it ain’t Miss Bessy Belle, and at it again! She’s that good hearted a little old soul, it don’t seem wrong at all, at all. I’ll have to speak to her, as it’s me duty. The Saints preserve me!” It was a morning in May, 1917, that Mike Donovan, mounted police in Golden Gate Park, rode up to where Miss Bessy Belle was picking pansies. Beside her. on a sign which read: “Picking flowers from these gardens is a crime punishable by law,” hung her basket, already half filled with pansies. “Will ye be lookin’ to the sign, Miss Belle?” ievving Mike, coolly, Miss Belle arose. She was a thin, little lady with keen blue eyes and soft gray hair. She wore a small hlack hat- and a black silk dress with a high boned collar. Her neat, strict little person was well preserved, and she1 scarcely looked her eighty-five years. Her eyes flashed defiantly now. “Sir, 1 have all the right in the world to pick these flowers, and you have no right to interfere, you of all people! Why, you were in petticoats when I was fifty! What was this place when I came here ? Sand dunes. Some of my friends made this garden. Why should I not pick the flowers? You tell oh, run along, boy.” Thus settling the matter, she turned back to her flowers. “But,” protested Mike, “it’s me duty to—” “Run along, I told you,” was the sharp and effective reply. Then suddenly recall- ing something, she ran a few steps after the retreating Mike. Policeman Donovan, I saw you without your raincoat, yesterday, and the weather looked doubtful. Don’t let that happen again.” ‘That I won’t, Miss Belle, seein’ yer say not, and I’ll be a-lookin’ the other way when next ye take to pickin’ posies, bless ye.” Picking pansies in the Park was Miss Bessy Belle’s one misdemeanor, for, as a rule, she was very law abiding, and saw that everyone about her was likewise. She had seen San Francisco grow from infancy. It was her city. Scarcely a plot of land was sold or exchanged that Miss Bessy Belle didn’t know of the transaction. I his was why San Francisco never disputed her right to command. She had been a pioneer. PAGE FIFTY-SIX To the girl of 17, arriving in Sail Francisco from Australia in the spring of 1848, all was romantic, adventurous, wonderful, satisfying her wildest fancies. What she saw before her—high, sandy hills, behind which the sun was setting—thrilled her. Along the shores were bonfires, and near each, a tent. Farther inland, was a handful of portable houses, like that which the Belles had brought with them. It was glorious. All Bessy’s wishes for adventure were soon fulfilled. Women, particularly young women, were few. Therefore, Bessy was never at a loss as to what to do; while Mr. and Mrs. Belle were ever at a loss as to what their wild but fascinating young daughter was doing. Behind all her gayety, however, was a deep seriousness. She read much, and, too, there was another reason why she, like Circe, lured suitors, but let none win her. Before coming to America, the Belles had visited a famous mosque in Mecca. Their guide had been a young priest of Mohammed. His whole appearance, and his soft musical voice appealed to her. They met many times during her brief stay, during which she found his charming manner and perfect English most pleasing. Many a conversation flashed back upon her later in her new home. With every young man whom she met, she unconsciously found herself contrasting him. Against him, all others fell short—yet he was an Arabian, she constantly re- minded herself, a Mohammedan. Might he not renounce his religion? But why should she talk so? He was but a memory in a distant land. One day, another ship sailed through the Gate. San Franciscans, among them Bessy, gathered on the shore to greet the newcomers. Suddenly, the girl’s face brightened. In a boat, rapidly approaching, stood a man, tall and dark, whose black eyes flashed back recognition and happiness to Bessy’s blue ones. His was the same face which before was topped with a turban, but he now stood arrayed in the suit of a British noble. It was Abdel, the young priest of Mohammed. He had come for her. It is only fitting to drop the curtain here. Let is suffice to say that a couple sat on the top of a hill, overlooking the bay, and talked. The talk was long. The next day, on the deck of a vessel passing through the Golden Gate, stood a tall figure in the costume of the East. With stern, tired face, he ga .ed out across the water which was to carry him back, alone, to his land, to his duty as a son of the Prophet, as a Priest of Mohammed. And now, sixty-eight years later, on the top of the hill overlooking the bay is a grave which is ever strewn with flowers brought by childish and grown-up admirers. Often one may see a man, in the uniform of the Mounted Police, come and lay pansies near the wooden cross, small and brown, bearing only the simple words, “Miss Bessy Belle, “A Christian and a San Franciscan” E.

PAGE FIFTY-SEVEN EVKRYG1RL Here beginneth a treatise how Dr. Scott summons Everygirl to come and give an account of her life at school, and is in manner of a moral play and a satire on “Everyman.” Dr. Scatt—I pray you send to me Everygirl next period. I have resolved to seal her doom by graduating her, and I wish to see her pass on to a higher institution. Miss Bendheim—Dr. Scott, I shall ring for her now, and the first ring of the phone, which hath threatened to seal her doom so many times, shall at last toll the end. (Exit.) (Enter Everygirl.) Everygirl—I was at school all day yester— Dr. Scatt—Tut, tut. thou must take a long journey. Thou art going to graduate. Everygirl—Ah, no not yet! Dr. Scott—Yes, thou must go. Everygirl—Alas! Alack! I may well weep. 1 cannot go alone. Methinks I will call on Chum for surely in her is my trust reposed. (Enter Chum.) Churn—Why lookest thou so sad? I will not forsake thee to my life’s end in the way of good company. Everygirl—Well said, dear Chum. 1 am going to graduate, and therefore, I pray thee, bear me company. Chum—Ah, no, I’d help thee out, but help thee on thy journey, oh, no. Everygirl—Goodbye. Methought as much. 1 was just saying the other day that I didn’t think that—oh, but I have another friend who I know will ne’er forsake me. Good Times, oh, Yoo Hoo! Good Times—Hello, old top, thou lookest glum. Anything 1 can do for thee? Everygirl—I am about to graduate and I am afraid to go alone without thee to a higher institution. Good Times—I go? No, Everygirl, I won’t go. I always helped thee before when thou wert sad, but go to that unknown place—ah, no, Goodbye. Everygirl—To think that I trusted Good Times! Still, there are Bluff, and Ex- cuses, and Fun. They have always helped me. PACE FtFTY-EIOTTT (Enter Fun, Bluff, and Excuses.) Fun—I’ll help brighten thy gloomy face. Bluff—I’ll help thee put up a bold front. Excuses—I’ll help thee out of any predicament. Every girl—Oh, friends, I am about to graduate, and go on a journey into the unknown realms of higher learning, and I fear to go alone. Bluff—Ah, no. I can’t stand that journey. Goodbye. Excuses—1 would be but a poor companion there. Farewell. Fun—1 should there lose my personality. Adieu. Every girl—Goodbye. All alone now. My friends have all left me. (Enter Rees and Hard Work.) Rees—Everygirl, I have heard of thy predicament, and I am here to help thee. Every girl—Thou helpest me? Thou, the bane of Evcrygirl’s existence? Rees—Yes, E vcrygirl. If thou wilt let me take Hard Work along, I will accom- pany thee on that long journey. I have been thy friend though thou knowest it not, and now, with Hard Work, thou wilt have me to help thee in college. Everygirl—Oh, goodie! Now that’s settled, I must go and try on my cap and gown so I’ll look nice on my last appearance in this world. Dr, Scott—She who hath given an account of herself and hath Rees and Hard Work as companions can pass into a higher institution, with a pleasant face under her tipped mortar board. Finis. Thus ended the moral (?) play of “Everygirl.” AGNES CHEIM, June, ’26. TWICE TOLD TALES” of A. W.

A FOUNTAIN Sparkling waters iridescent, Dew drops trembling, splashing, melting, Waters rising, laughing, dying With a gurgling dripping sound. Colors changing melting, fading Fountain waters ever playing In the flashing sunny light. EDITH PEARLSTEIN, June, ’26. “SHE STOOPS TO CONQUER” The “Rivals” have dwelt in a “Doll’s House,” Have drunk and made merry with life, They have fattened on “Everyman’s” substance, Robbed “Justice,” and triumphed with “Strife;” The “School for Scandal” has aped them, And “Wives” have spoken them fair. But they flouted the “Gods of the Mountain,” And the “Jew” has bade them beware. No “Glittering Gate” will await them, No toll save the doom of the Bell,” They will vanish like “Herod and “Caesar” To the land of “You Never Can Tell.” VIRGINIA CUMMINGS, June, ’26. PAGE SIXTY CHOCOLATE CAKE F all the heart-rending, mouth-watering delicacies of cookery, 1 think that mother’s chocolate layer cake is unexcelled. What could be more delightful than to come home after a hard set of tennis and find on a pantry shelf one of those dearly-loved objects! 1 say dearly-loved because I mean it. That expression may not be rhetorically correct, but, to me, it is morally correct. My heart beats rapidly when I gaze at its smooth, glazen surface. Is that not a sign of its place in my heart? When I could still count my age on my fingers, I distinctly remember my mother’s telling me that I should like apples and love mother. Well, I do. Hut then, I also love chocolate cake. Not that I compare a cake to my mother. Heavens! Have you ever seen a cake that might tuck you in bed each night, a cake that might read Hans Anderson’s “Fairy Tales” to you, or one that might take one atom of your mother’s place in your heart? 1 shouldn’t want to attempt such a comparison. But, as I admitted, a peculiar thrill races down my spine when I see one of those cakes on the shelf at my mercy. Most every girl likes to have something to munch on when she reads. The book, itself, seems to have a better flavor at such times. I believe that certain books demand certain flavors. Apples usually go with Dickens; chocolate creams, with books of the hour, and cake, with comic papers. So if you are reading “David Copperfield,” don’t attempt to eat cake. If you do, Uriah Hecp might not seem the villain that he really is, for cake gives you such a sweet outlook on life. Doesn’t the fact that I like chocolate cake show that I have a very sweet and optimistic nature? A pessimist would probably like salt crackers as an accompaniment to his book. When you take a bite of chocolate cake, you have in your mouth, a taste of the world—chocolate from South America, sugar from Hawaii, flour from the Dakotas, spices from Java, and eggs from Petaluma. If you think of cake in this light, doesn’t that bite compensate for your not having a world cruise? If you give me a piece of mother’s chocolate layer cake and “Andy Gump” of the Chronicle, I’d almost rather be curled up in a corner at home, than to be seasick on the deck of some world-cruiser. After all, there is nothing like home, sweet home—and a piece of Chocolate Cake! l'AGE SIXTY-ONE STELLA HAIL, Dec. ’27. GOODBYE, GIRLS HIGH HERE are times when the whole world’s rosy, and the sun shines every day, When your heart keeps time with the skylark, and you forget that you’re formed o’ clay Till something that’s born inside o’ you, gets restless and listless, implores That you break clear away, from your studies and play, and pass through the world’s open doors. When the chimes of life are calling. And the shades of girlhood falling, Mystic fingers beckon onward toward the wondrous, pond’rous life Where we soon leave youth behind us, (Age and time would never mind us) And will ship our bark out bravely over seas of joy and strife. Now, we’re resting in a harbor, gazing idly out to sea And we wonder, dream, and think, of what our future is to be. Hut we’re on the point of going, Seniors, where the white caps dash and spray, Where there’s none but you can steer your ship on its safe or stormy way. Yes, dear Girls High, we are leaving. Friends are parting; friends are grieving, Hut the finger beckons onward and our minds and hearts obey. For, when the chimes of life are calling, And the shades of girlhood falling, We must bid you fond “Farewell,” Girls High, and hasten on our way. AGNES FARRELL. June, ’26.
