Miss Alma Osterberg, ’00 Secretary ..............................Joe Slater, ’08 Treasurer .............................Dale Brown, ’09 The desire for a permanent Alumni Association has long been felt in our school, and in order to bring about such an organization a meeting of the Alumni was held in the school auditorium at the end of January. A committee was appointed, and arrangements were made for a dance to be given in the gymnasium Friday, March the first, which was to be preceded by an election of officers of the Alumni Association for the year of nineteen hundred and twelve. It is hoped that the organization thus formed will be as active, as successful, and as great a credit to the school as those of other high schools have been. 46 (Slenbille iHtljletic association OFFICERS Frank Birnbaum Lewis Narwold Jay Randall ...

ALTHOUGH Glenville has only one victory in football to her credit this season, we should not by any means, consider the season a failure. All of the games, with one exception were close and well played. But as the season progressed, Glenville became severely crippled until at one time the team was almost forced to disband owing to the number of men injured. Few veterans being left from last year’s squad, the prospects for a successful season did not seem very bright; but by Coach Towne’s patient and able coaching, we were able to hold Central— last season’s champions—to a low score. This game was the most interesting of the season. Glenville was greatly outweighed by a team of veterans, but our light line held at will. The only scores were unexpected, being gained by a forward pass and recovery of a blocked kick. Score 11 to 0. 50 The Shaw and East games were much similar to the first and were desperately fought by our crippled squad. The team showed pluck and training but were weakened by the loss of the star players. The other games followed with scores close, but Glenville, with the minority; then came our victory with Commerce which lightened our hearts to some extent. The second team should be mentioned for their untiring efforts to develop a team worthy of Glenville, and they ably filled the gaps caused by injuries. The prospects for the next season are of the brightest for only four men graduate and the second team men have shown their ability. 51 FOOTBALL REWARDS FOB. SWEATERS. Narwold Davis, J. Schneerer PINS. Roessler Middleton Birnbaum Schleman Bannerman Shields Randall Lehman Clarke, N. 54 Our Basket Ball Team ALTHOUGH the team did not acquire a high standing in the Senate, the fellows ought to be praised for the spirit they aroused in many games. Anyone who saw the Glenville-East game will never forget it, for in this game the fellows showed what Glenville could do and even though East won, “That’s Glen-ville luck,” was heard from most of the rooters. There was this same spirit in many other games but for some unknown reason it stopped a couple of minutes, and then, Glenville lost. There is one thing certain and that is, with such spirit, such material, and such good support from the student body, Glenville will make a good record in 1913. Middleton, Mgr.

In the first, that of March 21, the Juniors were defeated by the Seniors, 6-3. The second game, Senior vs. Sophomores, was played Monday, March 25. Again the Seniors were victorious, 8-2. Other interclass games are to take place throughout the term on Mondays and Thursdays. This year’s work has been quite satisfactory. Each game has shown improvement. Although the Seniors have been successful so far this year, the underclass teams show fine team work as the result of their frequent practice.

The work done last year was mainly for a good foundation for this year. The coach spent most of his time in developing men for this year's team. We had a dual meet with Shaw High, and although Shaw won the meet, we captured four first places, and a few second and third places. Landgrehe won firsts in the broad and high jumps; Schneerer, first in the mile run, and Birnbaum first in the shot put. In the Interscholastic meet, Landgrehe got second in the broad jump, Schneerer got places in the mile and half-mile runs, and Birnbaum got a place in the shot put. 1912 With the advantage of a large gymnasium, equipped with a running track, we got an early start in track practice this year. Inter-class meets have been held every week with a novelty meet occasionally. Practice has been held three times a week, and there has been a large turnout of candidates every time, among whom are men who show promise. More time will be spent on track athletics in the Cleveland high schools this year, owing to the fact that there will be no senate baseball teams. We have dates arranged for four meets this spring, the first one being a quadrangular meet, composed of teams from Tech, Glenville, W est, and Lincoln. This meet will take place on March 28, and a week later we are scheduled to meet West High in a dual meet in our gym. The other two meets are the Interscholastic, in May and the Princeton meet in June. 63 .1 ©rgamjattons Beta Sigma 1912 NINETEEN hundred and twelve has been one of the most successful years in the history of the Beta Sigma Literary Society, and a great deal has been accomplished. In the beginning of the school year, after the election of officers, discussions were held concerning the program of the year. Finally a compromise was made so that two papers on current events and one on travel in the places referred to was to make up each program until after Christmas, when a further course was to be decided on. 1 his plan has worked out very successfully and the girls have taken great interest in the papers and have enjoyed greatly the travel into foreign lands and hearing of the strange customs of the inhabitants. After Christmas present-day drama and its authors was selected as a topic for further study. These programs were also greatly enjoyed for the stories of such works as that of the new play without words and “The Blue Bird” and other equally interesting works were told. The study of the lives of the authors of these dramas was both profitable and enjoyable. Not only was the club busy along literary lines, but the members were also active in social good times. In the Autumn, a Hallowe’en party was given to the Junior and Senior girls not belonging to the club. The decorations, games and refreshments were all appropriate to the season. There was some dancing (of course), and fortunes hidden under the sleeves of tiny witches afforded a great deal of fun and merriment, while peals of laughter came unceasingly from the corners of the gym where two very funny, comically dressed old witches (Ruth Morris and Rose Stuehringer) read the palms of many eager fortune-seekers, and even the faculty sought to have their future fate revealed. Later in the afternoon all the guests were invited up to the library, which was decorated in yellow and black bunting, autumn leaves and Jack-o’-lanterns, and there refreshments were served. Around Christmas time a suggestion was made that the girls visit Hiram House, and all the members of the club eagerly agreed to go. It was quite a merry party of girls (Miss Orbison included) that started from the school. Miss Meyers and Mr. Garven were very kind in showing the party around and explaining their work. Some of the girls became so enthusiastic over the work and the children they saw that they offered to take classes to teach and some could not tear themselves away from the sewing room and its little girls, so they spent their time watching and helping them. So much interest was taken in the work of the Hiram House that the Beta Sigma contributed toward the game room as a Christmas gift to the children. 67 At the bazaar the Beta Sigma flower booth was “a thing of beauty” if not “a joy forever,” and the girls presided over it with so much grace that they had no trouble in selling their dainty wares and finding winners for the two six-pound boxes of home-made candy. But the chief accomplishment of the year in the eyes of most of the girls is the play “The Grove of Single Blessedness,” written by Mr. Phillips. Mr. Vincent Clark, ’12, kindly consented to be the “godsend” of the play and so under the leadership of Mis9 Phillips and the help of Miss Lownsberry, rehearsals have been carried on since February. They have proved a great deal of fun and some work, but the result will certainly prove successful. Thus the school year of 1912 closes for the Beta Sigma with the election of new members, initiation and preparation for the play and the annual dance. It has proved a happy year to the girls of the club, made so by the kind interest of Miss Inez Orbison and her enthusiastic participation in all their work and pleasures, and the Beta Sigma girls wish success and as much pleasure in the club as they have enjoyed, to all future Beta Sigma Girls.

Some of the strongest fellows, however, were graduated last June, and they were greatly missed at the first meeting in September. New and inexperienced men in the ranks had to be sought out to replace the peerless leaders of the preceding year. With a firm determination to maintain the standard of Wrangler efficiency the new officers set about the work of the new year. A number of pupils who could secure the Faculty endorsement were elected to membership early in October. The work this year has been characterized by earnestness and originality. Discussion of present-day problems and debates upon current topics have been held every two weeks during the year. The free criticisms of the members have proven to be very beneficial. Conclusive criticism inspires confidence in the weaker members. The results of the year’s work have been very satisfactory. The presidents of Senior Class, Glee Club, and Dramatic Club are Wranglers. Nine of our members were on the honor roll for the winter term. Many of our best men will graduate this year, but the large list of approved applicants for membership promises well for the plans of the society for 1912-13.

This is only the second year of its existence, hut its reputation has already been established. The “Russian Honey Moon given last year was practically the Dramatic Club’s first appearance. This year, under the able direction of Miss Evelyn Phillips, it has improved wonderfully. At the beginning of the year we had a try-out. To try out, it is necessary to recite some piece in order that the Club may estimate the ability of the speaker. There were eleven people admitted and, incidentally, initiated royally. The Club meets every third Friday and at present is studying the modern drama, using “You Never Can Tell,” by Bernard Shaw, as a model. We are also planning a Rhetorical play, “My Lord in Livery,” by S. Thayre Smith, as our last work in 1912. OFFICERS Raymond Tarbell ............. Ruth Grout ..................

This club is not organized and has no regular meetings except of its officers, the head and sub-treasurers. It was organized by the class of 1912, for the purpose of enlarging our school library. Any sophomore contributing at least one penny a month may become an active member. In this way a great deal of money has been collected and put into the school treasury to be used for additions to the library. The club has had its social functions also and these are always greatly enjoyed. 'I'lie first year an ice cream party added to the fund, but usually the parties are for the members only.

It can be safely said that the orchestra this year is the best that we have had in the four years of the writer’s observation. Under the efficient leadership of Mr. Crabbe the orchestra has never pulled together better nor done better work. Numerous entertainments gave us plenty of chance to show off our skill, viz.: two grammar school concerts, in connection with the glee club, at Mayflower and Woodland Hills; the Bazaar, and at a play given by one of the Glenville churches. The Home Concert and Beta Sigma play are yet to come. We also expect to appear at commencement. 80 The (iirls (ilee Club From Harmony, from Heavenly Harmony, This universal frame began. THE Girls’ Glee Club of nineteen hundred and twelve has taken great strides toward becoming a well organized club. In former years no such pains were taken to admit into the club only girls possessing good voices and the ability to use them and as a result never before has there been such a good Girls’ Glee Club. Although the club has not made any public appearances until this spring, regular meetings have been held since the organization on Wednesday afternoons. In these meetings, songs are practiced and a social time enjoyed by all. Preparatory to the Home Concert and Commencement, special music has been practiced and the result is a credit to the good work of Mr. Manville and the girls. The Club is expecting to hold a dance in the spring.

Is fit for treason, felonies and crimes.—Shakespeare. IN order to avoid all semblance of evil, the boys turned out well to the call for Glee Club candidates. But it was not until the middle of December that the club got down to real practice; notwithstanding this, the work accomplished has been very gratifying. The usual “Settlement” concerts at Mayflower and Woodland Mills schools proved unusually successful, and the boys were enthusiastically received at Rhetoricals; did credit to the school at every opportunity. The results obtained have been especially pleasing when we consider that last June saw the graduation of practically all the best singers of the club. But from the raw material an organization has been developed which has delighted many, and greatly enhanced the pleasure of many of the school functions throughout the year. The “Home Concert” established a high-water mark in this school’s musical career, and the clubs of the future years must be unusually fine if they surpass it. Special mention should be made of the effective and faithful work of Mr. Stewart, the leader; he has surmounted numberless difficulties and brought the club to its present state. We extend to him our sincerest gratitude and hope for many successful clubs in future years.

The attendance, about six hundred and fifty, was the largest in the history of interscholastic debating in Cleveland. The new auditorium was in use with the new stage carpet, walls newly painted, foot-lights in use, in fact, Glenville might well have been proud of their new building. The Glee Club sang very well. The audience was enthusiastic. The weather was perfect. We regret to say—Glenville lost.

Nevertheless there was a fair attendance. Better preparation on the part of Glenville won the decision, 2-1. This year’s debating team offers no regrets for what it has not done, nor praise for what it has done. We merely submit as “fact to a candid world,’ that our efforts were the result of our earnest endeavor, the care and skill of Miss Phillips, the ever-watchful criticism of Mr. Whitney, the enthusiastic support on the part of the student body. We owe our appreciation to the work of those members of the faculty who encouraged us with their timely suggestions and especially to the students who prepared trial debates and generously spent their time in helping us. - AND HOW “PROUD YOUR PARENTS 1 WILL K WHEN THEY HE.AH THEIR SON 3R£AThETOKTH AN IMPASSIONED PHILIPPIC Tull or av e inspiring Sublimity- IT WILL BE THE HAP PlEST MOMENT OT MY whole LIFE PA PUSS FACULTY Kheturirali YOU Rhetorical Programs November 17.

Great interest was taken in all the preparations for it, for everyone knew of the success of former bazaars, and so desired to equal if not surpass them this year. Every class and individual worked with a will and under the direction of Mr. Elliot, excellent results were obtained. The gymnasium, being the scene of most of the attractions, was beautifully decorated. Red and black bunting covered the ceiling and was caught in an artistic center arrangement, while pennants of all kinds added to the brightness of the scene. Around the side walls were arranged the different booths. These were presided over by the several classes and organizations, each having donated what they sold. The booth nearest the door was decorated in red and white. This was the Sophomore Pastry Booth. Blue and white was the color scheme for a pretty rectangular shaped booth where the Seniors had charge of a roulette wheel and home made candy. The Art Classes exhibited some of their handiwork and pennants for sale and were well patronized. The red and black trimmed booth, with the class numeral 1913 on the canopy, served as a stand for popcorn, peanuts and pop, and of course its attendants were kept busy. Every one found their way sooner or later to the pretty flower booth, for in it the Beta Sigma girls were not only offering lovely flowers for sale, but also giving a chance on a six pound box of candy with every purchase. The Wranglers gave their patrons a chance to try their skill at knocking down “nigger babies” and drew quite a crowd. Next to them was a pretty yellow and black booth in which the Freshmen were kept busy selling ice cream cones. At three o’clock, most of the visitors left the gymnasium to attend a play in the auditorium. “The Sophomore” was given with great success by the Dramatic Club. Raymond Tarbell made a good “leading man” and a splendid hero and Doyne Freer was charming as Hope Alden. Buster Brown, as acted by Wilbur Helmer, was very funny and well acted. Everyone was amused by the absent-minded professor Alden, the part being taken by Frank Sheron. 93 The school boys all were acted well. Some very clever acting was done by Dorothy Angell as Aunt Mary, Clara French as the cousin, and Irene Krieg as the servant. After the play, box lunches were disposed of amid much gaiety and then preparations were made for the evening’s good time. A vaudeville preceded the evening performance of “The Sophomore.” It was very good. The first sketch was done by Heber Pfunder, Raymond Hanks and Homer Streich; the second part consisted of a charming dance by Marion Abel. Mr. Manville gave several selections, which were greatly enjoyed, next a girl whistled, and last was a lullaby given in fine style by the G. H. S. quartette. After the play almost the entire audience went to the informal dance in the gym. Here the happy day was ended and everyone felt sorry when the Bazaar was closed at 11:30. The Bazaar was a great financial success as well as an evidence of the great amount of school spirit we have at Glenville. The total profits amounted to about $250. The play was the greatest “money maker,” collecting about $124. The Junior booth came next with about $24, and the others followed close behind. 94 t The Rlack and Red IN December Glenville High School put out an experimental magazine. The novelty of having such a publication brought a large subscription list and the school netted a good percentage. Looking over the criticisms of the magazine given in the monthlies of other high schools, we judge the school has no cause to be ashamed of its effort. The publication was followed by a debate on the various merits of the magazine versus Annual. And this in turn was followed by a vote of the school which gave the decision to the Annual. At some future time, perhaps the school may desire to continue the experiment. The staff of the “Black and Red” was as follows: Glenn Wagner, T3 ...................................Editor-in-Chief Janie Whitelaw, 12 .......................................Assistant Editor Virginia Bixby, ’12 .............................Business Manager Gertrude Jaskulek, T2 ....................................Treasurer Robert Roessler, ’13 ...........................................Art Editor Warren Schneerer, '12 Bell Greve, ’12 Vincent Korfhage, T3 Gertrude Irish, T3 Marvel Codling, T4 Bianca Morse, T3 Gordan Allport, T5 Helen Gloecker, T5 Helen Kirk, T3 FACULTY ADVISORS Miss Davies Miss McHannan Miss Phillips Mr. Rulon Miss Beck 96 Calendar SEPTEMBER 5— Hello!!

RED was the youngest of the “Boys of the Smoky Cave.” Like Red Riding Hood, he had once had a name of his own but the time was so remote that only faint memories lingered even in his own mind. Red, as may be supposed, possessed a mop of—ahem—auburn hair; also a mother who owned a restaurant. He was very popular with the other boys. Usually quiet and order (from a boy's point of view) reigned at the meetings of the B. S. C. Today, however, consternation showed on every face and despair filled every boyish heart to the brim. Even Beaut, who was handsome, and knew it better than anyone else, forgot to enjoy the sensation which he was sure his purple socks ought to be making. It was Red who had launched the thunderbolt—or, more accurately speaking, it was his mother. She had positively declared that Red must learn and speak the “piece” assigned him by his Sunday School teacher for the Christmas exercises. Unless he did so, he could not give the party which the boys had been anticipating for two weeks. “When is that entertainment?” demanded Fat, the practical. Fat is so-called “because lie ain’t,” the boys will always carefully explain to you. “Yes, how long have you got to learn it in?” demanded Stuff anxiously. “Only till the day after the day after tomorrow—three days not counting today.” “Oh that’s plenty of time!” cried Beaut, optimistically. “You ain’t seen the piece yet,” sobbed Red. “There’s fourteen lines!” That this was a calamity showed plainly on every face. Finally the silence was broken by Stuff. “If only yer mother didn’t own a restaurant.” he sighed mournfully. 108 II. That evening Red’s mother tiptoed into the living room where her husband was buried in the sheets of his paper. “If you wish to see a meeting of the B. S. C. in progess, come with me,” she whispered. He followed to the parlor door. Inside were the boys: Beaut at the piano trying to play “You Beautiful Doll” with one finger; Stuff, Specs and Skin playing Flinch on the large reading table; Red and Fat over at one side. Red was repeating over and over: “An angel host most fair to see.” “W’liat is it? asked the man. “Red is learning his piece.” she replied with a smothered laugh. “Flinch!” screamed Specs. “Aw shucks; I’m sick of playing this old game,” said Stuff, throwing down his cards. “Say, Red, what eats you going to have? “And angel host most—” “Is Deary Yarder coming? asked Beaut, leaving the “Beautiful Doll to a solitary existence while he arranged his tie. “There won’t no one come if Red here don’t learn his spiel, grumbled Fat. “Go on, Red. “An angel host most fair to see. “Say is that all there is to that piece?” growled Stuff. “I should think you’d know that line by this time,” added Specs. “Aw, he’s got a spite against the rest of the piece,” commented Skin. “Say Fat, ain’t he going to do no gestures?” asked Beaut. “Well, if you don’t like the way I’m doing, you can just learn him yourself,” said Fat angrily. “I guess there’s one line yer won’t have to teach him,” giggled Specs. “Tell your mother to be sure to have angel cake,” begged Stuff. “Devil’s food would suit you better, retorted Fat. Go on. Red.” . “An angel host—” “Aw, cut it!” “Beat it! “Skiddoo!” and various other protests were accompanied by looks and any missiles handy. 109 “Take another line, Red,” advised Fat. “Here you can't get the last. Say it for a while and give the angels a rest.” “And bear what burden saveth you and me,” obediently repeated Red. “ Tain't ‘burden’; it’s burthen.” “What’s the diff?” “Well, there must be some or it would say burden,” reasoned Fat. “And you always say “said” instead of “quoth” and “my eyes,” instead of “mine eyes.” “Aw, the audience won’t know what it says,” Red muttered sulkily. “How do you know they won’t? Maybe they’ve read it before.” “Well they just won’t, that’s all.” Fhe watchers silently stole away. 'Flic woman was laughing. III. On the night of the Christmas entertainment, the boys of the Smoky Cave occupied the front row in the church. Each and every boy knew the whole piece by heart, especially one line. Each and every boy was ready to prompt Red at the slightest falter in his voice. Red, however, did not falter. He stood up straight and recited the piece in a decidedly singsong voice, finishing each line as if it were a complete sentence and using the gestures which Beaut had painstakingly taught him. The boys could truthfully boast that he had “got everything but the expression.” The audience was nearly convulsed by the stolid look on his face and his stiff movements, but listened politely while he spoke the following: “As I was going to Bethlehem town, Upon the earth I cast me down. All underneath a little tree, That whispered in this wise to me, “I shall uplift of Calvary, And bear what burden’—” (“Burthen,” corrected Fat in a stage whisper.) 110 “And bear what burthen saveth you and me. As up I fared to Bethlehem town, I met a shepherd coming down; And thus he said—” (“No, quoth,” whispered Fat frantically.) And thus he quoth, “A wondrous sight. Hath spread before my eyes this night.” (“Mine eyes,” objected Fat softly.) “An angel host most fair to see, (This line was perfect.) “That sung full sweetly of a tree, That shall uplift on Calvary; What burthen saveth you and me.” In the back part of the church Red’s father looked at his wife in bewilderment. “What does all that jumble of words mean?” he demanded. “What do the boys care about that so long as they get their party?” retorted his wife. “Say, Red,” whispered Stuff as he made room for the “conquering hero” beside him, “Be sure to have ice cream.” Bianca Morse, 13. Ill A Theme Our high school’s a place to learn in, and we’re learnin’ every day; from our first year to our last year they are shootin’ things our way. Math and Physics, Dutch and English; in Oesar—bluff and Hist’ry— flunk; why, high school’s just one round of learnin’; and when Seniors we’ve a hunk of knowledge as would shadow wise old Socrates’ chunk. Now there’s things as come quite easy, and some as come right hard; and some as helps us on our way and some as just retard; but the best things in all our learnin’ (thing as takes the longest, too, for some of us don't ever learn it till our schooling almost through), but the best thing in all our learnin’, and it ain’t found in a book, is just to meet each fellow-mortal with a pleasant, smiling look. For a courteous word or action, or a sympathetic grin, or just a smile of fellowship—say, makes us wondrous kin ; and though it takes long to learn it, it’s worth more’n all else combined, to be to all, from Freshie up, real pleasantly inclined. 112 Observations of an Audience (View point in Physiology.) IT was in a brilliantly lighted auditorium seating about one thousand people, that, being slightly bored by the play I took the chance of studying the faces about me. On my left sat a middle aged couple who seemed very absorbed in the play each in their own way for they never remarked about anything to each other. He was a man of perhaps five feet nine inches, but he seemed smaller for his face was lined and his form bent. You could almost see the desk that you felt he must have pored over for many years. She was rather stout and domineering looking and the diamonds that she wore explained the bent shoulders of her husband. Altho 1 have said they were taking in the play, I do not mean to infer that they gained much pleasure from it. No play could create a diversion great enough to make him forget the crook in his back or her the fact that they had five dollar seats. On my right a young girl was enjoying herself by chewing gum and saying, “Oh this ’ and “Oh, that,” to her young escort, who, I felt certain had rented his dress suit, and from his uneasiness would have appreciated his half-hour cigarette more than the play. She held her hat in her lap, a great creation of fur and ribbon weighing about ten pounds, and plus one pound of rat, it is no wonder, that her head aches two-thirds of the night and her eyes are dull in the morning. My eye next wandered toward the orchestra leader. He was a tall, slim man whose complexion seemed to give out a sort of a yellow glow and seemed to suggest hurried meals, poor mastication, and a diet consisting mostly of pie. I thought what a different man he would be if he could only leave the overheated atmosphere of the theater and work outside on a farm for a while. I then took to thinking of myself; my head felt heavy and the seat was becoming too fixed a proposition and I longed to get up and stretch. Perfume was in the air but that did not prevent me from thinking that the very air I breathed had been cast out by 113 hundreds of others that evening and I thought, what is the use of it all—the crowds, the music, the lights, the laughter? Outside the air is ever changing; a brisk walk would clear my head, and prepare me for a good rest; and if I wished entertainment, the stars and the outdoor sounds of night would give it to me. So I rose from my five-dollar seat and left the poor bookkeeper who needed sleep, his wife, and her diamonds; the girl whose eyes said, “headaches”; the young man whose every feature symbolized the cigarette and went for my walk which cost nothing and gave a great deal in payment and I wished I could take the tired orchestra leader with me.

She mingles also with the mass, And still she is not hid, Her beauty shines above the crowd. Her voice is heard amid.

Mistress Rosie Quite compose, How does your Literature go? “I don’t mind confessin’, I ne’er know my lesson. I’ve ten zeroes all in a row.” 114 A Package of Old Letters IT was nothing but a package of old letters quite yellow from age, tied with a bit of faded lavender ribbon, and, yet somehow, it held my fancy. The old trunk from which I had taken it was quite empty, except for this bit of the past. As it was a dark, gloomy day, I moved to the tiny attic window to examine the package more closely. The ribbon was not like a common lavender ribbon of today, but was embroidered in small silver roses, which were but faintly discernible. It might have been the ties of the bonnet some eighteenth century girl wore long ago. I wondered how she looked ? She probably had a lavender brocaded gown, black mitts, and maybe those low, black slippers that looked so well with the cream white stockings. But I have forgotten the letters! I wonder if I’d better read them? 'J'he Girl of the Lavender Dress put them there, I am sure. Maybe they are love letters that she laid away with her wedding gown. I will just look at one, then I will put them back where the Lavender Girl laid them long ago. Just then I was startled by the loud voice of my aunt calling me to dinner. I hastily put the letters in my pocket, and went down stairs, still dreaming of the beautiful Lavender Girl. The next morning I was much shocked by the following remarks from my aunt: “Jane, where one earth did you ever find that package of yellow papers that was in your pocket? I have looked for that for a year. Those are some of your grandmother’s recipes for cake she gave me years ago. I am glad you found them. You can have the ribbon if you want. That ribbon, my dear, was the one your Aunt Emma always put around the neck of her favorite cat, Cleopatra.” And I said—nothing. 115 Mildred Norton, ’13.

Long ago, the motion of my paddle had become mechanical, and the sudden cramps in my back and arms had given place to a dull ache. My whole being was centered on one longing anticipation; it was for the refreshing breeze of Turkeyfoot Lake, and the dark, wide expanse of water, on the further shore of which, I would be able to see the glowing camp-fire, and perhaps catch a glimpse of my friends awaiting the canoe load of supplies, and their weary companion. Then with utter bodily fatigue, as so often happens, there came a hopeless subversion of thought; and my feverish mind, rushing aimlessly about, struggled with painful minuteness through all the petty details of its recent consciousness. I was living again in the experiences of the last few weeks. Scalped ligature, dissecting table, smell of ether, and the heavy atmosphere of the sick-room, all recurred to me. I performed again, and in detail, minor operations of which in my normal moments, I had no recollection. But a single reminiscence finally merged with distinctness from all the rest. I stood by a bed-side in a distant hospital. The frail, girlish figure before me, I had made my special care for weeks, and now, the color was beginning to return to her cheeks, and the lustre to her soft blue eyes. I had cured her of the typhoid; but alas, what more subtle disease had I brought to her? For whom was that blush as I stood beside her bed, and why did the little white wrist tremble as I reached for her pulse? Ah! What had I done? I turned away in mental anguish as I thought of those endearing words by which I had meant only to comfort the dark periods of her illness. I knew with what implicit love and trust she was awaiting my glance, and I dared not look at her. An overwhelming emotion surged through me. I must tell her! My social position—my ambition—my surgical reknown, I must explain. God, no! I could not do that. Something big 118 and hard stuck in my throat and seemed to choke me. I struggled thus for a moment, then, mastering my feelings, I stooped, tenderly as I could, to say farewell. Ah! That look in her eyes! Was it the fever returning, or was it— “What rot am I thinking?” I cried, rousing myself from the reverie. “Why do I vex myself with what I cannot help? I came to this place because I needed rest.” The pines responded with an ominous silence, and my ear was startled by a sudden cessation of the amphibian din. Along the margin of the narrow channel the glow-worm plied his pale torch. There was not yet a sight of Turkeyfoot. Then, stealthily and with strange perverseness, my weary mind returned to the bed-side, and again that mute glance appalled me. It seemed to be burning its way deep into my heart. “I beg pardon, sir; but would you mind giving me a lift as far as Crook’s farm? It isn’t much further, but my basket is quite heavy.” The voice was so evenly pitched and so musical that it scarcely disturbed me, but seemed the most gentle and natural retriever of my vagrant thoughts. I looked up, and saw that I had rounded a sudden bend and was approaching, on my left, a little pier, barely laised above the surface of the water. On the end of the pier, I could discern, against the deep shadows that lay beyond, the outlines of a graceful, white-clad figure, a large bonnet, and a basket. Strangely enough, this sudden appearance startled me no more than the pretty request. I knew that I had expected neither, and ought to be surprised; but I felt an unaccountable naturalness in the whole situation. I steadied the canoe by placing my hand on the pier, at the same time assuring her that, although I had no idea of the whereabouts of Crook’s farm, I would do my best, with her guidance, to bring her there. She stepped in lightly; I could scarcely feel the canoe tip. “Oh, I’ll show you where it is, it’s right on your way,” replied the voice. (Surely I had heard that voice somewhere before.) Its owner settled herself adroitly among the large bundles near the forward thwart, and placed the basket at her feet. 119 “Most charming combination,” I thought, “as graceful and mannerly as a lady of distinction; and as naive as any country girl.’ I wondered also at her calm assurance of my destination. The stroke of my paddle once more evinced a business-like energy, and the ache in my biceps was quite forgotten. Then, just as I was about to start the conversation with some ordinary remark, something extraordinary happened. rile full moon, rising, emerged suddenly from behind the clouds. My paddle was poised in the air for a moment, and the water dripped gleaming from it. Then I looked straight into the eyes of my passenger. “Lydia!” I gasped. “You are surprised?” she said slowly. Ah! now I recognized that voice. “How did you come here?” I asked in an awed whisper, and rubbing my eyes. There was a short subdued laugh, then her face resumed its look of customary sadness. “I don’t call that very remarkable. Do you forget that I told you that I had relatives at the Portage Lakes with whom I intended to rest and visit after my illness? I thought you might have remembered that.” Her calm, blue eyes met mine fairly. I thought I had never seen a creature half so lovely. Surely, it must be some good angel who had come in her likeness, as a solace to my weary journey. “Come, Henry, if you do not paddle, I shall never get there,” she said simply, as she took off her straw bonnet and placed it in her lap. Her light brown hair fell loose over her shoulders, and gleamed softly in the moonlight. “But tell me,” I said, still wonderingly, “how did you happen to be walking along this deserted road alone and after dark?” “Because, now, no one cares where I go.” The voice was still calm, but a shade sadder than usual, and she was surveying the moon with a wan and thoughtful expression. There was no bitterness in her tone; only quiet resignation. 120 “Lydia ’ I cried, deeply moved, “do you still care for me?” “More than ever before.” “And can you forgive me?” “I have already done so.” “Oh, Lydia! If you only knew—” “I know,” she interrupted. “You wish to tell me that you love me now.” I was startled. How had she guessed it ? Were all the secrets of my heart reflected hack in that sad, sweet smile? “And you’ll accept me now, won't you darling?” I pleaded. Her exquisite white hand, hanging loosely over the gunwhale, played idly in the water for a moment. Then it was raised and extended, pointing to a little sandy stretch on the opposite shore. “Over there, please, Henry dear; there is where I must leave you.” This was certainly inexplicable. Where could she be going? There was no habitation in sight. I longed again to make known my passion, but somehow, in a dazed silence, I obeyed her direction; she, watching me the while, as if in deepest contemplation. In a moment, a tragic one to me, the bow grated on the pebbles, and she sprang out before I could come to her assistance. “Lydia,” I cried desperately, as I followed her. “You must not leave me like this—without an answer. Let me go with you; you don’t know what ruffians you may meet in these woods.” “I need no protection,” she said sadly. I was closer to her now, and would have embraced her, but she evaded me. Then I fancied I saw something in her eyes, beside sorrow. Sorrow was dominant but far down in their depths there seemed to burn the fire of an inner and devouring passion. It was anguish. “Henry,” she said with wonderful calmness, “it was on Tuesday, the twenty-fifth of June, that you left me at the hospital.” “Yes, yes,” I cried, “Oh, Lydia, don’t remind me of it.” “That was on Tuesday,” she repeated, and her voice sounded 121 far off, and strange. A damp, cool breeze stirred her hair, and overhead the pines began a dismal sobbing. “Thursday—I died. Was it the trailing of her garments, or the murmuring of the pines that awoke me? Oh! no. It was the gentle swish of the rushes against the bottom of my boat, and the cool, night mist of Turkey foot Lake. And there, not half a mile away, was the beacon camp-fire. A few moments of vigorous paddling, and I was approaching the white beach. Then came the crackling of fire logs, the sound of merry voices, and (Oh, bliss!) the aroma of frying bacon.

Song of the Modern Man Backward, turn backward, O Time, in your flight, And give us a maiden dressed proper and right; We are so weary of switches and rats, Billie Burke clusters and peach basket hats. Wads of jute have in a horrible pile, Stacked on their heads to the height of a mile, Something is wrong with the maiden, we fear, Give us the girls as they used to appear; Give us the girls that we once knew of yore, W hose curls didn’t come, from a hair dressing store, Maidens who dressed with a sensible view, And just as Dame Nature intended them to, Feminine style’s getting worse every year, Oh! give us the girls as they used to appear. R. A. G. 124 Musings of Skygack on the Bazaar SAW' earthbeings congregated in subterranean chamber. The inhabitants were mostly feminine, dressed in gay colors with a band about the portion of the body which has mental capacity, probably to keep ideas from flowing away. A group of very small earthbeings were huddled in one corner, probably sacrificial victims; each had a chained receptacle from which he withdrew green tags, no doubt means of purchasing his freedom. Across the upper portion of the vast abyss were strung different varieties of paper; their purpose is unknown. Along the sides of the wall are cages in which are several humans, some exchanging green slips for eatables. In one cage there were flowers about the prisoners, probably tokens of great sorrow; in another cage were tall bottles which male earthbeings hit against wall of cage at the same time muttering, “Ye gods and fishes, must I endure all this? Perhaps Os gar can tell me what crime he has committed to be subjected to everlasting torment; I would seek him but the creatures seem to be moving toward the upper regions so I will follow. Was led into another large room filled with chairs. Space in front, traversed by few earthbeings who caused general mirth, also female earthheing who had a bird in her throat. Earthbeings again sought lower regions in order to recuperate by dining, then climbed stairs to afore-mentioned room. Many boys appeared on the stage in this room; these boys seemed to delight in hurling threats at person who attempted to teach them. Afterward two bespectacled dames arrived on stage; they approved of nothing and with much fear picked up a cigarette which had been smoked by male being. A female appeared who was no doubt in crazed condition as she continually sprang into the air by means of her pedal accessories. Later, earthbeings withdrew from hall and dispersed into unknown regions. Gertrude Irish, ’13. 125 Milton, the Poet WHERE more is meant than meets the ear.’ The sage and I were sitting by his open hearth fire. I always came to the sage when I was out of sorts. Tonight I was especially dissatisfied, dissatisfied with myself and everyone else. Suddenly I burst out: “Why is it that I can’t appreciate what I know is beautiful? Look at these poems of Milton. I know that they are wonderful. I have been told so and even I can realize that it is true. But I do not love to read them. They repel me. Why is it?” The sage was silent a moment. Then he said slowly and evenly: “Listen to my parable of the two lakes. They were not far apart but they were vastly different. One was clear and shining and motionless. If you should look down into its waters, you could see its treasures lying on the sea-floor—pink shells, sea plants and even a small pearl or two. The other lake was turbulent—never still. It was not clear. There was something about its green depths that fascinated but frightened you. When the sun arose it colored the silent lake with all its different hues but it barely touched the crests of the waves of the other. But as the heat of the day grew, the clear beautiful lake became covered with scum for it was always motionless. The second lake, however, became clearer, its green depths lengthened and it was almost beautiful. By sunset there was little about the first lake that was attractive but the second was still tossing restlessly. It was almost clear and the sea-floor which seemed almost miles away was visible from the top and the plants which grew there were many times more brilliant than those that grew in the other lake. The pearls were large and precious. The fish which swam there were never seen in any other waters. And when the sun sank, the waters shone even through the night, but they were still restless, never silent.” The sage ceased speaking and gazed into the fire, thoughtfully. I sat and waited for I knew he was not through. Finally, he spoke again. “The clear shining lake represents the light frivolous verses 126 which are treasured for an hour but which can not endure the great test. The other lake typifies your poetry of depth. You cannot fathom it at first sight. You merely touch the crests of its waves. But as time goes on and you read it again and again, you see its true beauties. And that is the trouble with Milton. You had to work hard to understand him and the joy of the first reading was lost. But, if some time in the future you reread these same poems, you will be surprised at the change. I admit that, being a scholarly man himself, he has written for scholarly people; but I think if you persist, your labors will be rewarded.” Again he stopped. This time he had said all he intended and I knew it; for the sage never spoils his point by repeating it. The fire flamed up and then fell but the sage sat motionless. I handled the book of poems with new respect but neither of us spoke. B. M. M., T3. King Solomon and King David, Led merry, merry lives, With many, many lady friends, And many, many wives. But when old age crept over them, With many, many qualms, King Solomon wrote the Proverbs, And King David wrote the Psalms. E. G. P., T 2. 127 Furniture PERHAPS one of the most interesting features of the annex is the new desks. They are remarkable for a propensity to fall at odd and ill-timed intervals. Indeed a kind Providence seems to control them at times, for, we have a pupil ill-prepared on a lesson, stumbling a little but not going far enough to show he doesn't know, when, r-r-rattle—hang, the desk lets go and down he comes and the teacher, to cover up his confusion calls on the next pupil. However, though we are ashamed to admit it, the suspicion has crept in, that sometimes a human hand stealthily reached down has helped to produce the timely fall. A study-hall teacher has just sunk down at her desk after a long vigilant watch, thinking that everything is all right when again that nerve-racking r-r-r-rattle-bang and she must resume her watch till that certain number of pupils who seek every possible chance for diversion, have settled down. Goodness knows whoever sat in the fateful seat settled down soon enough. Vet again that suspicion creeps in, though we would fain not think it, that maybe in some cases that wicked person aided his own downfall to distract—oh no—of course to give the teacher a little diversion. Probably from the scholars' standpoint the desks were an amusing innovaction, to the teachers a distraction, to the contractors a continual source of trouble. Vet. the desks hadn’t afforded the diversion, it would have been vthing else, and, let the te take comfort in the probability—maybe something worse. A. N.

Then you move forward gracefully to the floor, for the seats of these chairs are too narrow to allow any changing of position without disatrous results. After this awful descent thro’ space to the floor, you wave your hand frantically and demand some other kind of a chair. Then the teacher says, “I guess you’ll have to put up with the chair ( ?) you have. They are what the school board has provided. E. A. S., T2.

Here we've lost three games already and you all know we play our big game with Hazelmere three weeks from tomorrow, and we ll lose it, we'll lose it, all because we lack one man,” half sobbed the big captain of Glendale’s eleven. “We know it, Rob. We know it. Oh, why under the sun did Jack Longworth graduate last year when we haven’t anyone to take his place! exclaimed Rex, the stalwart guard. “Don't say, no one to take his place. We’ve some one if he only would. Why in the—,” began Roy, the undaunted center. “Yes, why won't he? It’s beyond me why big Ray Prexton won t play football. Boys—I’ve often wondered. Do you think he is afraid?” asked Carl, the jolliest fellow in the crowd. “Afraid? Not he. Don't you remember the broken arm he got when stopping a runaway last fall? No, it must be something else,” replied Bob. “Well, I’d like to tell him a—” began Bob. “Hush, there he goes,” interposed Roy and all eyes eagerly turned toward a tall, well built figure passing on the other side of the street. A frank, laughing face, clear, honest blue eyes, waving brown hair and a hearty voice won him friends wherever he went and even these boys down in their hearts loved him. “Bob, he is with your sister again. Why don't you have her ask him to play?” “I did. I told her to plead with him. She'll tell me tonight what he said.” Let us follow Ray as he walks slowly down a side street with Arley, the captain’s sister. His dark head is bent in thought, while a pleading voice is saying, “Please, Ray, please, won’t you play? 130 We need you so. We’ve lost every game this season and you’re the only big fellow in the school that isn't playing. Please do.” “I can't, Arley, I can’t, oh I wish I could,” and his eyes plainly said, “if only to please you.” Chapter II. “This must be the place. Such a beautiful cottage too,” mused Arley stopping before a small white cottage nestling among trees and green shrubs. She eagerly walked up to the door and at her timid knock a sweet elderly lady opened the door. “Would you kindly give me a drink of water?” stammered Arley with a crimson face. “Certainly, dear, certainly, come right in. Did you walk far?” sweet tones inquired. “Not very far, just from Glendale’s school, was the reply. “Oh! Do you go to Glendale school? Perhaps you know Ray Prexton. He’s my son,” and pride shone from every feature of her motherly face. “Oh yes indeed, I know him,” confessed Hob’s sister. “He isn’t here this afternoon. He’s taking Lucile out for a drive. You don’t know about Lucile, do you? No? I don’t know why I should tell you. I have never told before.’’ “Please do,” Arley pleaded. “Lucile is Ray’s sister. About two years ago she was very sick and one day when Ray was carrying her downstairs he tripped and fell and she never walked a step since. It nearly broke Ray’s heart and he has never left her alone one afternoon. He either teaches her or takes her out for a drive. Oh he’s trying to make up, although we never have blamed him. Do not cry, dear, please,” yet she wiped the tears from her own eyes. “How proud, how proud you must be of his unself—” tearfully commenced Arley. W hen the door was thrown open and Ray stepped into the room with his sister in his arms. “Arley! Arley? You here?” “Yes, I’m here. I’m going to beg a favor from you. Will you let me take your place in the afternoon with Lucile and you play football? I shall love her I know. Please, Ray, for dear old Glen- 131 dale,” and Arley’s dark brown eyes pleaded more than her voice. So he promised. Chapter III. It was the biggest day of the year at Glendale for was not Rosemere trying to win the banner and Glendale her lost name? Everybody of any account had turned out and black and red floated everywhere. In the front row in the grandstand sat a little cripple girl, her face all aglow with eagerness. “There he comes, Arley. There comes Ray,” and her small hands grasped her companion’s in her excitement. Such shouting had never been heard before as the two squads trudged into the field. “They’ve started, Arley, they’ve started. Oh, Ray—” and the girlish voice died down. An hour later the team in black and red bore Ray Prexton on their shoulders to the grandstand where sat the girl who had made it possible for Glendale to win that day. There they thanked her. Again and again shouts were raised for the man who had won three touchdowns and gained the day by fifteen to nothing. But the greatest reward came that evening when on the still quiet porch, he and Arley heard within voices singing the dear beloved song, Here’s to good old Glendale, to our Alma Mater dear, Start together as our college team we cheer, Let the chorus ringing loud now sound a knell to fear. While we are cheering for Glendale. On the college records we will place each hero's name. It shall stand with honor in our college Hall of Fame; Strong is the spirit we shall surely win the game, While we are cheering for Glendale. Chorus: Hurrah! Hurrah! For Glendale on the hill, Hurrah! Hurrah! Our hearts are with her still, Work and fight and struggle for the college with a will. While we’re cheering for Glendale. And they knew that any sacrifices they had made were not made in vain. Belle Greve, T2. 132 To the Senior If I had a wishing ring, Which makes all things come true, I’d turn it round a time or two And wish these things for you. A life brimful of happiness, A mind both strong and clear; A heart attuned to truth and right, Wherever they appear. I’d wish for you some other things, To make your life complete: Work you must do, a generous task, To keep your spirit sweet. Love you must have for all mankind, The suffering and the weak; And strength of character so firm. You ever for the right will speak. These things, today, I’d wish for you, To bless the coming years; But thru it all, there must be shed, A few, sad, bitter tears. 133 The Hero of Brown T HE annual dual meet between Brown and Riverside was nearing the end. “1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-----roared Riverside. “Great Guns!” burst out Jack Lane. “Twenty-five points, and we have only twenty-three. Brown has got to go some.” “Yes, and only the mile left,” returned his friend Bob. “I told you we would lose,” came in a solemn tone, from a lank youth in the rear. Jack and Bob turned at the voice. “For Heaven’s sakes, shut up! Skygack,” yelled Jack. “It’s bad enough as it is, without your cheerful remarks.” “Never mind, Jack,” said Bob. “Here come Coach and the boys for the mile.” Several fellows came running out of the gym, making for the track. At the rear walked the Coach with a red-headed fellow, talking to him earnestly. “I tell you, Red,” the Coach was saying. “This meet depends on you, understand? You Ye the best I’ve got. Jim will get third, but that will not win the meet. You must get first. Bud Lawson is the only Riverside man to bother you. Stick to him! Don’t let him get away from you! They will try to tire you out. Then Bud will come up fresh and win. See their game?” “Yes, I think I see it,” replied Red. “I’ll do my best, Coach.” “Good! For the honor of the school! Shake on it!” The runners were lined up. “Get on your mark!” Get—set! Bang! Eager eyes followed the runners. “Red is sticking to Bud, all right,” remarked the Coach. “Ah, I thought so. Bud is dropping back. Stick to him, Red! Stick to him!-----what? What in thunder is wrong with Red! Why don’t the fool stick to Bud? There he is running at a break-neck pace with that Riverside man. He won’t last at that rate-------He can just about keep his legs now.---1 wish I had him by the neck!----- Lots of good my warning did. I always heard Red was thickheaded, but I didn’t believe it.-Last lap! Here comes Bud! 135 Fresh as when he started!-----Keep it up Red! Hold it! Bud’s gaining on him!----If Red will only last!” Everything is quiet now. You could hear a pin drop. All are breathlessly watching the race. Skygack is hanging on Bob, Jack’s new derby dangling around his wrist, which in his excitement he had put his fist through. “Hooray! Rah! Rah! Rah! Red! Red! Red!” burst from a thousand throats. And Red, exhausted but happy, fell over the line into the Coach’s arms, a yard ahead of Bud Lawson, Brown getting third and Riverside fourth. Score: Brown 30—Riverside 29. In the gym a dozen pair of hands were helping Red to dress. “Good work, Red, old top!” cried Jack, slapping him on the back. “I fell for their game,” replied Red, smiling weakly. “How I lasted is a mystery to me.” J.

His broad shoulders and fine-cut features won many a heart for him. He paced the station impatiently, half angrily. Why had he been sent to meet this old-fashioned girl who was coming to see his mother? What would the other fellows think, seeing him trot down the street with a carpet hag and a shy little girl dressed like her grandmother? Him, the star of the varsity team. Bah, in such a pickle. His heart leaped as he heard the train whistle. If he could only get home without anyone seeing him. What did he care for this playmate of his childhood? The train drew up with the usual hustle and noise. How in thunder was he to know which one in that awful mass of humanity was Peggy? There a group of jolly school-boys, there an old lady, here a pretty girl, there a prettier one. Tom looked no further. His eye was fastened on the trim figure of the young woman. No thought of Peggy now. From her trim tan shoes to her cute black sailor hat she was stunning. She hesitated a moment and then started forward. She seemed to he waiting for someone. But no one came. Why did he have to meet Peggy ? Why couldn’t he give assistance to her? She walked over to the nearby bench and sat down, laid her trim leather suit case and magazine down and waited. All the passengers were out now and where was Peggy? Oh! botheration with Peggy; he hoped she would never come as long as he could look at that brown hair peeping from under her hat, those lovely brown eyes and that beautiful curved mouth. She suddenly became aware of someone staring at her and raised her eyes and Tom thought he had never seen anyone blush so beautifully. She instantly reached for her magazine, but in her intense embarrassment dropped it. He, courteous gentleman that he was, came to her rescue and handed it to her. A little cry of surprise and a mutual recognition. “Why, Tom, I didn’t know that was you. I am Peggy. Don’t you remember me?” 138 “Peggy! i expected to see a quiet little country girl, instead of an up-to-date city girl. I never in the wide world would have known you.” And Tom, helping Peggy with her suitcase, walked down the crowded main street. He was sure of one thing—Peggy had come to see his mother; he was going to see Peggy’s father after hearing what she thought about it. Cora Lichtig, ’12.

When he lived, where he lived, how he lived, will never be learned. We have nothing left of him but his masterpiece, a poem which touches the hearts of all mankind, a poem which makes you laugh, a poem which makes you weep, a poem which is so true to life but withal so simply told that it can be understood and appreciated by old and young alike. At the early age of three years I learned to repeat this masterpiece, lisping it in my childish way, and fashioning all sorts of childish fancies and romances about it: “Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater, Had a wife and couldn’t keep ’er. Put her in a pumpkin shell, And there he kept her very well.” From these four lines we can tell a great deal about the life of the common people at the time it was written. That the high cost of living was then a great problem is self evident. Peter ate pumpkins, not because lie liked them especially, but because his limited means forced him to it. Peter couldn’t afford a castle to shut his wife up in. He had to be as saving as possible and so a pumpkin shell must serve Mrs. Peter for a prison. That women were then much the same as they are at the present time is also proved. Mrs. Peter was fond of gadding about to the great annoyance of her husband. After he had come home, tired from his labors, he had to cook his own supper or eat anything which he could find in the cupboard. All his protests were in vain. So at last lie resorted to force and imprisoned his giddy young wife in such a manner that she must of necessity stay at home. Peter was a romantic sort of a fellow, who did not like to descend to the common, every day things of life. He might have chosen for his principal diet cabbages or turnips or any of the common and cheap vegetables. But Peter was poetic and must eat something which had a poetical significance. Pumpkins are associ- 140 ated with witches, hobgoblins, black cats and all kinds of fairies, good and bad. Pumpkins would remind one of foaming glasses of cider, the doughnuts, the pop corn and walnuts, the taffy, the rosy cheeked apples and all the other things one has enjoyed at a Hallowe’en party. “Yum-yum!” Peter could taste them all now as he ate his lowly fare. But Mrs. Peter could not sympathize with her husband. She did not like pumpkins and felt very resentful toward him for not choosing something which they both could eat. She hated the little house in which she lived and she hated the garden of pumpkins which grew just outside. They were fine pumpkins, but she would rather have had flowers. Consequently she began to visit the neighbors’ houses and the neighbors’ flower gardens and began to eat at the neighbors’ tables, leaving her husband in blessed solitude. And thus the quarrel arose. Oh, well! Peter should have chosen a wife more congenial to himself. Since Mrs. Peter hated pumpkins, the greatest possible punishment which could be inflicted upon her was to imprison her in a pumpkin shell. And then it was so economical, too! But Peter, being poetical, did not think of that. The poem tells us that after that Mrs. Peter stayed at home and attended to her business. But whether she did it willingly or by force we can only guess. She probably died an early death from her diet of pumpkins, thus leaving Peter free to take a second wife. It would be impossible to enumerate all the merits of the poem but we will mention a few of those most obvious. The rhymed couplet is used for the poem and its form is perfect, thus showing the tendencies of the classical school. Unlike the classicists, however, the writer gave expression to an original thought. A great deal of sly humor is shown in the poem, for we could almost call Mrs. Pumpkin Eater’s punishment one of Peter’s practical jokes if we did not know that it was merely his feeling for poetical justice. Another of the merits is that it is not too long. There is not an unnecessary word in the poem. Much is left to the imagination. I know that many have criticized this masterpiece because of its brevity. I hardly think this is a just criticism, but even if it 141 were, the merits so overshadow the one fault of the poem that we are still moved to admiration. No fear that this poem will ever die! Children learn it and remember it all their lives. Old people repeat it even on their death beds, as the fitting close of their tempestuous careers in life. And the writer—where is he? Ah, perhaps he lies in some forgotten grave, unwept and unregretted. Such is the wage of the noble. March Standing one day at my window, I noted the blue, fleecy sky, The green peeping carpet below me, And the merry-voiced children nearby. Again next day at my window, What a wonderful sight to behold! Icicles hanging from tree-tops, Glist’ning like silver and gold. I saw each crystallized spriglet, Under the sun’s bright ray; And the light wires looked like fringes, As o’er all hung the canopy gray. R. Keller, T5. 142 The Nerve of the Nervii “I see,” said Caesar, “by the Daily Gazette, That the Nervii into their country will let No traders or merchants. I know that I’ve met With some pretty tough cases, but nothing as yet To compare with the nerve of the Nervii. “They boast of their prowess, their skill, and their glory And e'en say that I will surely be sorry If ever I visit their territory. Let’s see what a visit by me, predatory, Will do to the nerve of the Nervii.” Caesar then went to his summer home, A beautiful place in the outskirts of Rome, Took his flying machine from the aerodome, Summoned his soldiers by long-distance phone. And set out for the land of the Nervii. But on the way there, Caesar stopped for supplies At the land of the Remi—a country which lies Across the Matrona—much to their surprise; Laid claims to their country in spite of their cries, And went on to the Land of the Nervii. But when he drew near to the Nervian landing, He saw that twas filled with manned aeroplanes standing Ready for battle. His companies banding. He began the great battle, notwithstanding The much-boasted nerve of the Nervii. fhe Nervian fleet and the Roman clashed. The sunlight upon their revolvers flashed. The wings of a few of the airships were smashed. But together again by skilled workman were lashed, Alas for the nerve of the Nervii! 143 And so, from morning till eve there was fought, A battle that with many dangers was fraught. The Romans’ skill seemed to count for naught, Against the strength of that great onslaught Of the nervy men of the Nervii! But one by one, the Nervian host Fell from the ships and gave up the ghost. “Just wait!” they cried falling, “we’ll do our utmost To keep you warm, Caesar, when you come to roast In Hades.’- The nerve of the Nervii! “Great guns!” said Caesar, “ ’twas a hard won fight. Just imagine, from morning till night, Having to fight at such a great height. But, now that it’s over, I think I’ll alight, And lay claim to the Land of the Nervii. “ Tis a beautiful place for a summer vacation, With its skyscrapers, castles, and high elevation; We’ll he welcomed back home with great innovation.

Twilight From My Window Note yon range of cypress trees, Firmly pointed heavenward, Molded close as falchion sheaths, Each branch slightly inward curved ; Now athwart the golden field, Dark and true their shadows lie, Patient, soon the night is sealed, Stay and watch the sunshine die. Ah, surprised, but wait awhile, Twilight’s triumph is supreme. Still the field, a mottled tile Lets the remnant light be seen; See, the clouds repress the gold, Tyranny is everywhere, But a frayed and ragged fold, Day withdraws unto her lair. Thelma Harrington, T4. 145 On the Hillside GORGEOUS red sun was casting its last beautiful rays over a quiet hillside village in northern Palestine. It was between four and five of the afternoon, the hour of quiet. Not even the many birds that inhabited that section of the country were singing their notes of love to their mates in the nest. 'The only sound that broke the intense stillness was made by a tiny brook as it went, half singing, half sobbing, on its way to the sea below. About half way up the side of the hill, was the humble dwelling of Barsynias, the young shepherd. His young wife, Esther, having prepared their meager evening meal, stood at the door of the tent, with their baby in her arms. Where, in all that broad country could be found a sweeter girl—for, indeed, she was a mere slip of a girl, only nineteen years old. She was looking wistfully up the hill, watching for the return of her beloved, and his flock of sheep. As she stood there, Barsynias, leading his sheep, appeared over the brow of the hill. How tall and handsome he was! How proud his devoted wife was of him! The baby looked up into her sweet mother's face, and pointing off in the distance said, “Papa.” “Yes, darling,” answered Esther, “soon papa will come to his baby girl and her 11131111113.’' Still watching the husband and father, they saw him lead the sheep down to the side of the brook, where at his command, they all lay down. Barsynias stepped to the edge of the tiny river, and called one of the sheep by its name. This sheep immediately ran to its master. This shepherd picked the sheep up tenderly, carried it out into the middle of the stream, gave it a drink of the clear, sparkling water and carried it to the other side. In like manner each sheep was transported to the opposite shore. Then the young herder led the sheep into the fold, counting them as they went. After the sheep were carefully housed for the night, the handsome Arab started toward his house and little family. But as he walked, he rubbed the palm of his left hand rather vigorously. “What has happened?” thought Esther. “Can he have lost any of his sheep? Surely this is not our happy dear one, who always returns to us, at the close of the day. with light step, and 14G cheery voice. She ran out to meet him, and as he fondly kissed her, she noticed that dark lines were commencing to come under his eyes. Barsynias forced himself to be cheerful during the simple meal that was spread, and frolicked with the baby before it was put to bed. After the few evening chores were done, Barsynias and Esther stepped outside the tent in the moonlight. There was no light around them except the moon and the stars. The young son of the soil took his beautiful wife in his arms and whispered ever so tenderly, “Surely God has been kind to me in giving me such a mate and helper. Esther, my darling, you have always been happy since I led you to the altar? You have never regretted it?” Esther stepped back in alarm. Surely some morbid fancy had taken hold of her beloved. “No, my husband, I have never for one instant regretted it. But tell me what troubles you tonight, let me share your burden.” Then Barsynias opened his hand and showed her a tiny red pimple, which seemed to be rapidly spreading, on the palm of his hand. Immediately one awful word sprang to her lips. “Leprosy, she cried. With a little piercing scream she fell, as if fainting, into his arms. But immediately she became calmer and together they considered the terrible situation. “If I go to the Magi,” he sobbed in anguish, “it means that I have held you in my arms for the last time. It means that for the last time I have placed my lips against yours, and felt the life-blood flow from your veins into mine. And my poor baby! It means that I shall not see her grow up into a beautiful young maiden, her mother's own daughter. Never again shall I hear her childish laugh! Oh ! my God, I cannot stand it—I cannot. Yet for her sake, for your sake, I will go. I will go. I will bear this punishment that has been placed upon me.” He went into the tent, leaving Esther standing outside as if in a trance. He took the child up from its lowly bed, and pressed it to his bosom. “My child, my only daughter,” he cried, “I cannot leave you. I cannot! But I must, I must, I must.” He kissed the sleeping child, and placed her back on the bed. 147 He returned to Esther, who was still where he had left her. He drew her to him in a last fond embrace. “Esther, my love, this affliction that has come to us, is hard to bear. I pray God that He will give us both the strength to bear it. And when our daughter grows up, tell her that her father left her as he did because of his great love for her. And you, my beloved, be brave and trust in a High Power for strength.” Then with one last kiss he left her, and went up on the hillside. There they found him in the morning, near the spring where he had taken Esther on the night of their betrothal, dead. God in his compassion, had released his soul from bondage. Grace E. Macomber, T3. 148 The Story of a Savage Who Went to Dwell in the City THE day had been warm and sultry so I planned to go for a walk into the woods. As I went farther into their depths, it became cooler and so I decided to rest under one of the larger trees. As I sat there, a man walked up the dusty road as if he were so tired he would drop. He sank exhausted under a neighboring tree without seeming to notice me. As I looked more closely at him I saw that his features and complexion were rather queer for this part of the country; then it came to me that he might be a civilized Indian and curiosity getting the best of me I spoke to him. “This has been a very warm summer, has it not?” was my rather foolish remark, for the poor fellow looked wilted. He looked up slowly and grinned, then he started the following conversation in very broken English, which I could by no means imitate but will try to translate into good English. “I see you are curious as to my appearance,” he started, “and I am very willing to inform you of my circumstances. I am an Indian who, before January last, had never been near civilization. I came to visit a relative who had moved here from an Indian reservation and I regret my visit more than words can tell. “Although natural to you, the ways of civilized people are torture to me. Everything was so strange from the beginning. My relative insisted on getting me a suit of clothes with shoes and hat and all the other fixings. I could not walk; my feet were crushed and doubled up into those ridiculous stiff leather torturers called shoes. The clothes rubbed my skin and made me feel clumsy and as though I carried a continual burden. Then the hat! Oh, that hat! words can’t describe the trouble I had with that (my cousin called it a derby). It was stiff, heavy and very hot on my head. No wonder white men have such little hair! “Clothes alone did not make up the hardships I had to endure. The furnishings of the house bothered me so. Why couldn’t man live in the open as nature intended? The air of the house was so 149 stuffy I could not breathe; a furnace made the house unbearable in the midst of winter. Then, too, I could not bear sitting in such an unnatural position as is caused by use of chairs, so, to the horror of my relative I sat on the floor. At meals my lot was particularly hard. I had to sit stiffly at table. How ridiculous to use knives and forks when one has two good hands. And the food! Such food to feed a strong, healthy man! Dainty little mixtures, sauces, soft vegetables, but nothing on which a man might use his teeth! Some of the things were very peculiar. I remember that I got a round yellow object and bit into it. I pulled an awful face and gave a war whoop. I was told that the object was an orange, supjx sed to be peeled before eating, and that it came from the far south. Haven't we enough food here without taking that suited to a people living in a warmer climate? No wonder my relative was so short, thin chested and sallow. How can man be natural under such conditions? “After the sun went down and it became dark, my relatives, instead of going to bed, amused themselves by reading and talking. Suddenly my cousin jumped up, pressed a button and the room was flooded with light which hurt my eyes. So I jumped up and lay flat on the floor, face down, to escape what I thought might be an electric storm. My foot caught in something white and fluffy and a rod attaching it to the window came down with a thud on my head. (I afterwards learned that I had pulled down a curtain. It would have been a good thing to leave down, for it excluded sunlight and soon became very dusty.) “After having done all the damage I could, and being very sleepy, I retired. Here I thought I should at last be natural and comfortable. Not so, though; he led me to a lighted room, filled with furniture, pictures, rugs and other rubbish, even curtains, and then left the room. “Oh, what a change I made in that room! I grabbed the curtains, pulled them into a heap on the floor. Then I tried to open the window; I did not know how and after trying I got impatient and stuck my fist through it a couple of times. How good the cool air felt! My cousin rushed into the room to see what had happened and 150 laughed heartily when I informed him. Then he showed me how to get into bed and left the room. “Disgusted, I crawled in between the covers and tried to sleep. I could not, so I got out and lay on the floor where I slept very well, considering the had air. “I could go on and on, telling you of my struggles with civilization, but it would only tire you. I got used to it very slowly and always felt like a slave bound by ties of convention. When summer came, I thought that now at least I could be comfortable, so one morning I appeared at breakfast in Indian costume. My relative was shocked and I soon found out that these lunatics (they certainly can be called nothing else), wore almost the same clothing summer and winter. “Today I could stand it no longer and so I have decided to run away, back to the woods, the sun, the fresh air and the food that the (ireat Spirit meant us to enjoy, instead of living in a stuffy house with artificial manners, food and clothing. There I can hunt .in the open air instead of being cooped up in an office trying to use my brain instead of my brawn.” I was just going to answer the poor fellow when I felt myself slide. I hit my head against the tree and awoke. Yes, it was a dream but the lesson still remains, and henceforth I shall try to live as naturally as possible among the other “lunatics” (as my dream Indian called them) of this world. Eleanor Nall, T2. 151 Newspaper ('lipping 1919 Celveland, June 12th—Dr. Fayette Allport, in his hurry to reach a patient, collided with the electric of Mrs. C—, seriously injuring that lady.

Chicago, June 1—The new vessel “Norka,” was launched yesterday from the docks, with Vincent Clark as Captain. The lady who gave the signal, was the beautiful young wife of P ach, Illinois senator.

O snow, that comes from out the dull, gray sky, O blanket, white, that over all doth lie, Shine brightly; twice dread fate has turned to me. O ice, that sparkles over road and tree, O sheet of glass, that brings us oft to knee, Glare swiftly; twice hath fate withheld for me. O winds of north, that bring the biting cold, O tempest fierce, whose voice is loud and bold, Blow strongly; thrice hath fate been good to me. O clouds of gray, who forming snow withhold, O winter clouds, as ever clouds of old, Break quickly; thrice hath fate brought joy to me. O sun on high, who shines nor soon nor late, O sun on high, bring all to happy state, Thrice in this day hath fortune bowed to fate. Thelma Harrington, ’14. 153 Teacher: What do you consider the most important events in a man’s life? Frank G.: His birth and death. Esther K.

Herbert Lederer informed the Sixth Hour Civics Class that we all knew there was sorrow in life, but we didn’t like to think about it. We understand Herbert is always thinking about Bliss. His friend, W in. Loveman, however, is not blest with such a happy disposition. Poor Will will Greve. In Chemistry there is a Gross man In front of him a Merri man, And I’d like to find any man, Wrho can chatter more than these can. There was a neat missie named Spain, Who for idleness no one could blame; For looks she was there— Such curls in her hair— But where did they go in the rain? 155 There is a young lady named Rose, She’s good looking as you might suppose, With the chaps she is there, She has wonderful hair; Oh, why in our class does she dose? Who unscrewed Bill Loveman’s desk from its frame? Does any one know why Morris Lewis pays for Sidney Eisner’s sandwiches at recess? Does any one know if Herbert Lederer wears a stiff hat to school any more? Does any one know if Leo Grossman has a lease on the floor in the New Literary Society? Why did Mr. Hazel tell Leo Grossman at the trial debate that sand in our drinking water aids digestion. New word (coined in Latin IV) : Hithertofore. G. G.

In Third Year English: The Normans were composed of Norwegians and Swedes.” Miss Davies (almost laughing) : And what language did these Norwegians and Swedes talk?

Miss Orbison: Augustus was made emperor after his death. Mr. Hazel: Did you see the way the thermometer has went? Mr. Allyn (to Physics Class) : In today’s experiment as there is not enough apparatus to go around, you will have to work in groups of two each.

Pupil: You’d be doing fancy dancing. Frances Ritzi (in Cicero) : Who can be so seized by the mind— Mr. Colgrove (interrupting) : I thought maybe you were going to say seized by the neck. 157 Alice Hoffman was talking about the prisons of the Eighteenth Century, and said: . “The prisoners were hanged three times a year.” Unexpected Humor Fred was explaining to his brother the economic and social conditions of our country. He spoke of the trusts, corporations, and monopolies. “Our government is not based on sound principles,” he said. Brother Jason, a six-year-old, sat studious and motionless throughout this discussion. Suddenly a thought entered his young mind, and he said: “There is one good principal and she is Miss Terrell of Columbia School.” Eugene W illiams (in sixth hour Latin) : For voices are thrown which strike my ears. A translation in Latin: The tool was running about. Herbert Lederer (translating): If only we could get up on that wood-pile, we could get a view of the whole state. Miss Lederer: It would be a wonderful wood-pile from which you could see the whole state. Mr. Colgrove (to John Whipple) : Now make a free statement in your own words about what “ought not to be endured.” John (after much thought) : Why, all these infinitive clauses ought not to be endured. In German II: He sprang down, so that the flowers fell into convulsions. German II: W hen does the sun get up? Mr. Allyn was explaining Morse’s telegraph to the fourth hour Physics class. Mr. Allyn: Do any of you boys know any of the signals in Morse’s code? Edgar C: H has four dots. Frank G.: E has one dot. Lloyd B: L has a dash.

Elmer Boyer (in German, trying to conjugate raten) : du ratst, er rat— Miss Lederer: Make the “a” a little longer and don’t have any “rats’’ about it. The bell for dismissal rang, and if the young ladies of Mr. Stewart’s first hour French class had not been such innocent students they would have heard him murmur something like “datn(e),” which in the revised modern vocabularies is French for lady.” Mr. Hazel in Physical Geography: Do they send the cattle away alive—or do they pack them in cans?” Pupil (translating in German C): Die jenigen die dort waren schwiegen—Those who were, were silent. Marguerite Whitney (translating from William Tell) : The dead corpse lay there. Heard in English B: W hat lesson did Scott teach us? Pupil: Why—a—lie died. Mr. Whitney (in Civics): W here is the coal that the government reserves? Hanks: In the earth.

The purple clouds with golden edge, The sun, one crimson flood, The flow ers by the roadway hedge,— All seem to bathe in flood. The cricket chirping peacefully, Awhile the twilight fades, x Brings sweetest messages to me Among the sylvan shades. The frog with croaking lullaby, So drow sy and so dull, As still the dreamy clouds float by, Nowr hush unto a lull. The mother bird, her evening lay, In mellow’ tones and sweet; Sings softly at the close of day, Her babies at her feet. All sounds of life in vale and dell, Do gradually cease, And all the world now feels the spell, Of quiet and of peace. Edna Dueringer. ’12.
