In the fall on entering the Freshman class the roll was just one hundred and sixteen. This group was the class of “fourteen” which very shortly gave promise to become the leader in high school activities. This promise was richly fulfilled in that so many of our number were chosen to represent our interests on the athletic field and the public platform. During the Freshman year we were seated in four different rooms because of :he large enrollment. We had no organization as a class but each person held the nighest kind of class and school spirit. There were few actual failures our first year l-ut a great many from our ranks changed schools or sought employment. Oh! how glad we were to welcome the new Freshman class when we ourselves had been safely launched on the Sophomore side. This year was marked by a rapid rise in activity. More of our boys were chosen to occupy places vacated on the football team. One of our number succeeded in managing and directing two splendid benefits for the Athletic Association. One was a musical given in the Assembly ball at the Franklin building, at that time the high school. The next was a two-nights’ minstrel performance which netted a magnificent sum. Our class election occurred soon after our entering the New High School building which was January 1st, 1912. Russell Coles was elected president and Bessie Miller, secretary. The next event of importance was the annual Spartan-Athenian debate. This event was the biggest of the year, save perhaps the banquet and fight which followed. The debate was given before all four classes of the high school and the public was generally invited. Never befor-e were the two opposing sides so evenly matched. Each had speakers of equal ability and both were determined to win. On the sixteenth day of February the two opposing hosts assembled and war-fare started. After much brilliant oratory on the part of the six students, the judges finally retired and after much deliberation decided that the affirmative had won. In April the Spartans banqueted the Athenians, as was the usual custom. That memorable night will never be forgotten by members of the class of Fourteen. The largest class fight in the history of the school was waged about the Y. M. C. A. where the banquet was held. However those intending to come finally reached the festive board.—some at rather a late hour. This year, as the previou's one, there were exceptionally few failures but the same misfortune happened this year when many of our classmates moved from the city, thereby changing schools. The Junior year was about as successful as any. Our members became most prominent in all activities. The work was easy and pleasant. Our election was very satisfactory. Robert Rhone was president and Bessie Miller, secretary. This was the first year we had close associations with our superiors, the Seniors. We were mighty proud when they gave us a good representation at Margery Hall. They enjoyed themselves so well that in very short notice they returned the compliment by a very pleasant party. Spring athletics were entered into with more spirit than ever before. Chapman, Rhone and many other's showed their star work in a brilliant manner. Coles and Hopkins easily won the County Championship debate at Fruita. The following day the track team, representing the G. J. H. S. was composed mostly of Juniors. That evening Edward Wilson, another of our classmen, won the County Championship Oratorical Contest. At the close of the year a splendid banquet was given at the LaCourt hotel as a final compliment to our friends, the Seniors. 21 Our Senior year was the most trying of all. For a time our work seemed awfully hard but at last as the year began to draw to a close we realized that the test bad been severe. The ability of the members of our class to overcome difficulties and to win was plainly shown by the number graduating. Our classmate Edith Glasstford, who gave so much promise, was chosen as having the highest average throughout the four-year course. Horace Hopkins was an exceptionally close second. These are to be complimented for their brilliant work. Surely the world holds honor and position lor such students as these. Again we must emphasize the fact that our class has furnished the best material for leaders. Our football season, last year is acknowledged by every one to have been the most successful ever. Our team scored 197 points during the season, while our opponents scored but 6 against us. We met the largest and best teams of Western Colorado and Eastern Utah. The finances were deftly handled by Robert Rhone and Arthur Chapman piloted the team as captain. As the year draws to a close we must realize that never again will we be so well organized. Now we must find the ways of the world. Surely we have profited by out high school experiences and we sincerely hope that with work and ambition we may oecome benefactors of mankind. SENIOR'S FAREWELL. Graduation time is fast approaching and soon we shall meet as a class for the last time. Soon we shall no. more be greeted as we ascend the stairs, by the smiling face of Professor Allen. Soon we shall study and recite together for the last time. What a feeling of sadness comes over us when we think of these things! We have tried to be a good example for those who shall follow in our footsteps. It is with the best wishes that we give up our places to the class of T5. We wish to call the attention of the Eighth Grade to the splendid opportunities offered by the High School of Grand Junction. We hope that each one of them will enter the Freshman Class in the Fall. Now we must bid farewell to our old G. J. H. S. Parting is always mingled with sorrow but let us look on the bright side. After four years we have reached the goal which we have been struggling for. The faces of our kind and patient teachers will always appear before us when we look back upon our school life in Grand Junction. Each one of us will go on his or her separate way. We go out of these doors only to meet a greater and deeper task—life. No matter what we enter upon we shall endeavor to make this old world better. ALUMNI NOTES. High School students, ere it is too late, seize your opportunities, realize that the teachers are striving to make useful citizens of you and are not present to merely guard your conduct and to hinder your good times. If you but give the faculty a chance you will be convinced that its members wish the best in life for all of you. Do not wait until you are through school to appreciate their endeavors. Though, when you are through school, you divide into the many and diversified walks of life, stick together while at school for the great purpose of a better and more enlightened nation. Everyone is like a link in a chain'. When we cease to do our duty we cause the breaking of one link which often causes disaster to many. So let us do our duty to God and Man in such a whole hearted way that the great chain of human advancement may forever do its duty. WARD A.

OLIN MACE, 15. 26 Junior Class History No freshman class has ever yet escaped that peculiar and nan-pleasant form of torment which it is the delight of the more aged members of the High School to bestow upon the young and new ones. But as our class has always been rather distinguished, we were entertained more than is usual. Our some-time-to-be friends went to the trouble to decorate the school grounds as a welcome for us and so, as a result, on the morning of our arrival, great, green footprints were scattered promiscuously along the side walk. We appreciated that very much. We were further amused by a short song service which they held as soon as we were all assembled. We were grateful indeed, for the beautiful melodies which they rendered for our benefit, although the burden of the songs was somewhat the same and soon became very monotonous. But their fun didn’t last long; for, on account of a peculiar swelling of the head, it was thought advisable to move them into larger quarters so that neither the old building nor their heads might suffer in case they should accidentally come in contact. After their departure we enjoyed ourselves immensely and besides there was actually enough space then to permit us to be slightly afflicted with the same ailment that had caused their removal. We only made them a few visits that year because they still persisted in the little song service and we preferred to stay at home where there was no danger of our being disturbed and annoyed in such a rude way. Our second year was spent in the new High School and, merely because we were the largest class in the building, much attention was lavished upon us. About the first thing we learned was the way in which to render the song we had heard so often the previous year, although for some reason or other it did not produce the same sensation—at least not on our ears, as it had the year before. The most important debate of the year was given by members of our class and all the students missed their lessons for a whole afternoon just to hear it, even the Freshmen were allowed to attend, although it is very doubtful whether they enjoyed the afternoon or not. This year, our third, we have actually been allowed to associate with the wonderful, soul-inspiring Seniors. They permitted us to join them in the Literary Society. an honor which we appreciated very much, and also to mingle with them in a few social functions. On close inspection, however, we have discovered that they are not quite so dignified, illustrious, know-it-all and-then-some as we had been taught to be-lieve. In fact, we found out that they were really human beings like the rest of us. As our class has always been noted for unusual things, so this year, also, though, not through any fault of ours, people are still inclined to believe us a little out of the ordinary. The entire Junior class, with merely four exceptions, succeeded, in the month, of March, in being marked tardy—or worse. Never-the-less we all expect to be Seniors next year and we intend to show the classes who have been and the classes who are to be just how things ought to be and will be done. 27 MILDRED HAMMOND, ’15. b I JO SStfTD SOPHOMORE Claude Baker Willard Barnett Brice Blackwell Earl Blackstone Irene Bates Lenore Benge Edwin Boone Amy Brown Mary Brown James Bucklin Bernice Burkett Gertrude Campbell Kenneth Caldwell Marslene Chambers Arvilla Eddins Alfreida Elkins Henry Fidel Betty Francis Janet Francis Ella Fuchs Ruth Frey Cleworth Glasco Gillian Glasco Mary Glassford Gladys Glendenning Georgia Grady Genevieve Greenfield Arthur Groves Agnes Hale Maude Harvey Anna Heckman Harry Hill Harold Holmburg Philip Hindman Dorothy Johnson Harold Johnson Fay Klever Mark Knight John Lamb Warren Lane Sanford Marmaduke Dora McCarty Eleanor McClymonds Caroline McMurray Marion McNemee Blanch Paxson Audrey Rader Lavena Ramsey Richard Rider Helen Ryan Glen Schrader Alma Smith Helen Smith Helen Seegmiller Louise Smith Helen Talbert Mary Thompson 29 SOPHOMORE CLASS Sophomore ( lass History To attempt to write the history o; the present Sophomore Class is a task of tome magnitude and one to be approached with due deliberation. This fact is obvious, when one considers the importance of the class as a whole as well as of each individual member of it whose attainments qualify him or her not only for senatorial dignity but even to aspire to the lofty dignity of being one day mayor of Fruita. On the day of entry as Sophomores our numbers reached the very respectable total of sixty-two and our class was conspicuous in many ways for its superiority over all previous classes, particularly in the utter abence cf “greenness-’ usually associated with freshmen. The only place where that color was to be seen was among the Juniors and Seniors, who, observing our self-possessed and dignified demeanor, and remember, ing their own somewhat ungraceful debut, allowed the “green-eyed monster-’ to be pretty plainly visible. There were many events in the history of cur class during the past year which are worthy of comment, but space does not allow for reference to more than one or two; among the most memorable was our sitting for the taking of our photograph, a task which Mr. Dean finally accomplished, but only after the expenditure of much time and patience, not to mention the damage done to his camera and general outfit. It is not to be wondered at that the successful accomplishment of this undertaking taxed Mr. Dean’s well known ability to the utmost, for rarely, if indeed ever, has such a gathering of embryo statesmen, senators, diplomats, suffragette leaders, etc., been gathered together in one small space. It would not surprise me in the least to find one day that a future president of the United States was that morning ampng the crowd that faced that sorely-tried camera in the Dean Studio. Our Banquet is worthy of mention as being easily, and, of course, necessarily the most successful of all social events in the history of the High School. The dinner was excellent and was done ample justice to by the guests who, notwithstanding their extremely high standard of intellectuality, showed surprising appreciation of the lighter pleasures of life, if one is to judge by the extraordinary rapidity with which the many good things provided by the management disappeared. The toasts were numerous and appropriate and were proposed and responded to in a manner to do credit to even practised after-dinner speakers. There is a rumor to the effect that some members of the Junior and Senior classes assembled in a body near the hotel for the purpose of preventing some of the guests from being present but this I am inclined to believe is a well intentioned libel on the part of some partisan who is anxious to have it appear what bold, bad men the Seniors and Juniors are. We did not “shine” in basketball but that is of slight moment, and does not disturb our equilibrium, mental or otherwise, in the very least degree. There are some, I might say many, for unfortunately their numbers are by no means insignificant, who infinitely prefer the vulgar plaudits of the un.lettered multitude at a foot ball or baseball match to wearing the laurels of a Shakespeare or an Edison, but such have no place among the intellectual lights of the Sophomore Class; we believe in the importance of mind over matter and, while in no way despising athletics as an aid to health and relaxation from study, we have no desire for the development of muscle, at tne expense of intellect. The Seniors are well provided in the matter of muscle and not to speak of “Bones,” they have “Fat,” as everyone must admit. If the decision of the editor-in-chief was not so emphatic regarding the space to be occupied in our annual for this history, I could dilate to a much greater extent on this subject, but I think J have written sufficient to show what a really wonderful crowd we 1914 Sophs are, and whatever doubts there may be in the minds of others on this point, in our own there is absolutely none at all.

We now are the verdant ••freshies,” Laughing, happy, bright and keen. Soon a Soph,—then a Junior, Then! The Class of M7. September 3, 1913, one hundred and one bright green girls and boys entered ihe assembly room of the old High. Here the teachers had all been changed but Prof. Hirons. Feeling that we knew him because we had been in the same building with him when we were in the eighth grade, we all flocked into his room, taxing the capacity of every desk and seat, each determined to be the successful occupant. But, fate in the person of this same Professor, ruled otherwise. To him we were an algebraic problem, which he solved by dividing us into four equations—H, A, W, and P. And really, we were far more comfortable—not being forced to share our desks with others. The new teachers, who speedily took our measure, and with whom we have spent a very profitable school year, should feel honored for the privilege of teaching such a Freshman Class.. By referring to honor rolls of the past months, you will find ihe names of more Freshmen than ever before. Is that not a credit to both teacher and pupil? Of course, we have had a magnificent corps of teachers and we, the Freshmen of the class of ’17, honor and thank them. They have quickened our thinking powers, have awakened and invigorated our logical faculties, and best of all have taught us that it is not the knowledge acquired, but the effort called forth in its acquisition that will make us students. Here in this dear old High, we have spent many happy hours, in the class loom and out. Friday mornings we have always had some treat provided for us by Prof. Allen, our Superintendent of Schools, either an address or music, the speaker or musician being introduced by Prof. Allen in his own inimitable and pleasing manner. Twice during the school year we have gone to the new building to listen to addresses given by our State Governor, Mr. Ammons, and our Senator-at-Large, Mr. Taylor. We have our own literary society, and glee club. Being so far from the other ouilding we are more independent, not having “those gone before” to lean upon. Thus we have learned to use our own gray matter, and in so doing have become more individual in our thinking, consequently in our acting. It may be egotistical, but as that is the prerogative of a Freshman, we feel that as a class we have made a record of which we can be, and are, very proud; that those taking our places next September must work diligently to keep up to the mark. But we have no doubt but that they will. During the year we have lost a number of the one hundred and one with whom we started in the race for the Sophomore goal, but a few new ones have taken some of the vacant places, giving us a present membership of 92, about eighteen or twenty of us having started together in the first grade of the Lowell building. Taken as a whole, the year has been a successful one for the pupils and we trust a satisfactory one from the teachers’ standpoint. We regret leaving this dear old building that has been our school home for so many years, nevertheless we will be quite proud when we join the upper classmen in greeting the class of T8 with “How Green They'Are.” 35 ELEANOR CULLEN, T7. 36 Through four years of hard struggle the Senior class of 1914 has passed and now has entrusted the preparation of a fit monument of the class to a board of editors. The editors have put forth their best efforts on these last words of the class. They nave endeavored to extend the sphere of interest to all classes; to point out the mistakes of the year, and to arouse the interest and enthusiasm of the student body. The result of their labors is this book, a publication for the school issued by the Seniors. The board of editors are indebted to others for their kind assistance and advice in preparing this annual. Among those whom they desire to thank are Marian Hatch, T4, who wrote the short poems about the comic photographs; Bessie Miller, ’14, who wrote the history of the 1913 Girls’ Basketball season; Mildred Hammond, T5, Henry Fidel, T6, and Eleanor Cullen T7, who wrote the histories of their respective classes; Olin Mace, who wrote the Junior roll in his own witty manner; and Mary Glassford who wrote the story of (he Sophomore Banquet. Edwin Faber and Edith Kennedy, both Freshmen, contributed cartoons. Professor Tope was our never-failing source of aid and advice. Just a word here about our cartoons. Never before have the Grand Junction High School Annuals published as many cartoons as we have this year. We are publishing four times as many this year as last. Stevens, cur staff artist, drew all of these but five oi six. Great credit is due him for the splendid results cf his work, especially his Senior cartoons. It is not customary to mention the work of members of the Annual Board in the editorials but we feel called upon in this instance and in one other,—that of our business manager, Warren Patten. The Annual Board and Senior ( lass should congratulate themselves upon their wise choice of a manager for the “Tiger. Only through his efforts in procuring more advertising matter than ever before, have we been able to adopt the additional features and extra reading matter that we have. Our ousiness manager is entitled to a large share of praise for the time and effort he has spent in making this volume a financial success. To all these do we acknowledge our debt cf sincere gratitude. This year sees a complete change in the form and name of our High School Annual. After much discussion the Annual Board of 1914 has changed the form of the 37 Annual to its present shape, believing that this form is better adapted to the publishing of a High School Annual than the former. Last year saw much dissatisfaction with the name, the • Bengal,” a name utterly without significance; so this year we have changed the name to one which we believe has some significance, the “Tiger.” All of our school activities are carried on under this name, so what is more fitting than that the Annual of the school should bear this nanle? We have gained the consent of the class of T5 to this change of name in order that we may establish a permanent name for our publication. We hope that the other classes, when their turn comes, will see the wisdom of having a fixed name for the Annual and will retain the present one. Never before have the business men of Grand Junction responded so generously to the appeal of the High School Annual, hence they are entitled to consideration by the students, who should bear in mind that the money received from our advertisers is the life of the “Tiger.” We all know the golden rule—“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” or in our case “as they have done unto you.” Let us follow this rule, fellow students, and give the advertisers of this publication a portion of our trade. Read their advertisements. You will find bargains and will benefit both yourselves and the merchants and professional men by your patronage. Class spirit is most helpful and healthful for a High School. As an expression of class spirit, we approve of class scraps carried on in a spirit of friendly rivalry but in the unfortunate happenings at the Junior-Senior party last spring we consider that things were carried too far. The efforts of the underclassmen to break up the party developed into pure rowdyism and resulted in the ruining of two new dresses. We hope no more such deeds will be committed by Grand Junction High School student We have endeavored to put out a first class Annual this year and to do this we have given jokes and humor a large share in our book. Jokes always appeal more to the imagination when they concern people whom wre personally know. Some of us are hit by slams and jokes but we trust that no ill-feeling will result since everything was meant only in a spirit of humor and good nature. So if you find yourself the subject of a joke or slam, “don’t worry—smile.” It is the custom yearly to devote some space in the editorial columns to attacking the students for their lack of school spirit. We do not intend to do this this year. We think, on the contrary, that a great deal of school spirit has been shown this year. The football and basket ball teams have had all the school behind them and boosting for them; over one hundred students attended the Delta excursion, and the Athletic Association benefits have been exceptionally well attended. Possibly the school has mot stood by their debaters as it should have done but nevertheless we affirm that school spirit is not dead but is burning brightly in the hearts of each student fn High School. 38 Great interest was aroused in the story and poem contests this year owing to the special inducements of extra English grades made by the Annual Board with the permission and aid of the faculty. Some very good stories and poems were produced. The Annual Board extend their thanks to all who participated in the contests. Thanks are due to the Misses Eaton, Ela and Allen for the time and trouble they spent in judging these contests. There were fourteen entries in the story contest and four entries in the poem contest. The first prize for the story contest, a handsome pennant, was awarded John Lamb, ’16, for his story. “The Mystery of Maule’s Well,” Margaret McConnell, 17, winning the second prize with “A Modern Cinderella.” Of the entries in the poem contest, Margaret McConnell, 17 received first prize with the poem “The Valley Called the Grand:” while Madge Davis, '14 won second prize with ‘‘The Luck' Horseshoe.” Last fall the school beard took an unprecedented step and hired, with its own money, a coach for our football team and again this spring employed Mr. DuCray to coach spring athletics. The board is just as anxious as we are to get rid of our old High School debt and has helped us immensely by taking the expense of a coach upon its shoulders. Not only does this action aid the Athletic Association financially but the results were also seen in the work of the football team last fall which, working without the vision of paying for a coach, went through the season undefeated. For the tirst time in the history of the school we have a coach for track and baseball: hence the track work this spring has aroused more interest than ever before but still not as many boys have entered track work as ought to have entered. The coach was hired not to train a crack team especially, although we should like to have one, but to physically develop all the boys in school; so let's help him and show our appreciation of the action of the school board by coming out, if not this year then next, for both football and track. Iligli School Students mid Their Studies (By Richard E. Tope, High School Principal.) The public school system of the United States is purely an attempt to educate all the children of all the people. That we do this efficiently is attested by the fact that since the civil war the public schools of the land have decreased the illiteracy of the colored race from 97 per cent to 20 per cent. We have received foreigners from every nook and corner of the world at the rate of over a million a year and have made them into good American citizens and reduced their illiteracy from 100 per cent to 10 per cent. In the same length of time we have lowered the illiteracy among our native people from 12 per cent to 2 per cent. This is a record hitherto unknown in the history of the world. To do this we have provided school buildings and equipment complete in every detail; we provide for the maintenance of the system by public taxation; and we command the attention of the American people to this great educational ideal by compul. sory educational laws. Moreover, we place in control of this gigantic enterprise a vast army of efficient men and women who are consecrated to the work to which they have been called. Education is an uplifting, sifting, refining, organizing, interpreting influence. As such it is moulding and transforming the American people until today they are the wonder and admiration of the world. We are not only teaching ourselves but Uncle 39 Sam is the schoolmaster of the world. We expect the progress of the twentieth century to be marvelous, and in view of this fact, we know that the problem before the young people here in Grand Junction this year is to begin making definite plans for life so that twenty years hence they will be able to fit nicely into some good position that offers an opportunity for service and a recompense that will mean a life of happiness and influence. To the student we can say that an education comes high, but it is worth all it costs. For all the hard work, the self-denial and deprivations the student undergoes to get an education, he will receive a bountiful remuneration during a long, happy, prosperous and useful life. On the other hand there is little in store for the youth who neglects his opportunity and fails to prepare himself for the life of the age in which he is to live. Accidents are rare and luck is a mighty treacherous thing to depend upon. The fellow who hangs around waiting for something to turn up usually wastes a lot of pis own time as well as that of others. We make our own destiny and when one attempts to shift the blame from his own hand he is simply trying to cover up his own silly and irrational method of living. To the parents we can say that public education is an investment, a perpetual annuity. We need to stop talking about the cost of education and think and talk more about the cost of ignorance. Show me a community today that is complaining about the probable cost of good roads and I will show you an unprogressive community. The progressive community will be found trying to escape the overwhelming cost of bad roads. Just so with education. Ignorance is responsible for most of our troubles and mistakes and worries in this life. Add to the devastations made by ignorance those chargeable to lack of will power and to laziness and you have the sum total of human misery. Ignorance loses the farmer each year more than his total income. Ignorance is the cause of 80 per cent of all the death in the United States. Ignorance is the cause of our urban congestions. Ignorance causes the masses to lose in their struggles against the interests. Ignorance thwarts the dreams of the ambitious, and wrecks millions f human beings, who, because of it become our human derelicts floating upon the sea of society or incarcerated in our asylums and hospitals and penal institutions. The public schools of the United States are yielding the best return on the investment of the people’s money of all the investments in the nation. Of course we can not tell what the rate of income is. You might as well try to measure the influence of the sunlight and place a value upon it. A study of the latest report of the United States Commissioner of Education leveals some interesting facts concerning the high school growth in this country. Within the past twenty years the number of high school pupils has more than trebled,, increasing over twice as fast as the population ofthe country. In addition to this fact It may be stated that its courses are given so well that statistics show that graduation from a high school course multiplies the student's chances for success in life by ninety. In other words a boy or a girl who is willing to invest enough in life to enable him or her to finish a high school course with credit has ninety chances for a successful life to one chance without this preparation. Another interesting thing is to note the tendency in choosing high school studies. More students are choosing algebra than any other subject. English literature, rhetoric, composition, history, geometry and German are on the increase as favorite subjects. There is a decline in the popularity of all the natural sciences and civics. It will be news to many people to know that Latin is increasing rapidly and stands next to Algebra as the most popular study in the high school curriculum. Aside from German the other modern languages show a decrease. There never was a time when the substantial disciplinary and cultural studies were being given as much attention by ambitious students and wise parents as they are today. 40 (First Prize.) JOHN LAMB. Alexander Pyneheon was dead to begin with. Every one was quite sure he was dead, for had not the coroner already signed the burial permit and was not the dead man in his coffin all ready for the funeral? What better proof could a man want to be sure a man was dead? Alexander had fallen in the road the day before while taking a walk and was pronounced dead half an hour later, by one of the leading physicians. Alexander Pyneheon was the grandson of old Colonel Pyneheon, the builder of the house of seven gables. He had died in very much the same manner as Alexander, on the very day his new house was open to public. The land on which the Douse was built, was obtained by unfair means from a laborer by the name of Maule. ';n this land was a very fine spring, the waters of which were said to- be the sweetest in that neighborhood. During the building of the house a remarkable change occurred m this spring. The waters became harsh and bitter to the taste, and were said to have a strange effect on the person who drank of it. As I said before, Alexander Pyneheon was dead and his funeral was to be held that afternoon. A great many of his friends and relations had collected to witness the reading of the will which they supi osed was in his strongbox, but upon looking nothing was disclosed but some old letters, deeds and mortgages. It had always been the custom of the Pyncheons to read the will of the deceased before the funeral, and, fearing to break this custom of so old and respected a family, a great hunt was made for the missing document, by his neighbors. But nothing came of the search. Everything had been thoroughly searched that might possibly contain this paper, except the very clothes that the dead man wore. Finally, an adventurous relative, summoned enough courage to approach the dead man. He first searched the coat pockets and was beginning on the vest, when he was greatly startled by a movement of the dead man. Was it possible that a man was about to be buried alive? A doctor was present and said that Alexander had had a severe attack of catalepsy and that by giving stimulants he might possibly live long enough to explain about the missing papers. A messenger was immediately dispatched to get the necessary articles and soon re- 41 turned with them. Almost as soon as they were administered the eyes of the patient opened and he struggled to speak. It was evident to every one that he could not live more than five minutes, so the doctor, who was a nephew of old Alexander, asked about the missing will. Alexander managed to mutter a few words about a secret drawer in his desk, then suddenly sitting belt upright in his coffin, he uttered a pierc- ing cry, and fell back lifeless. No further search was made for the will that day, but the funeral was held as had been planned. The next day Alexander’s desk was carefully examined, but no secret drawer was brought to light. While the search was going on, Dr. Wentworth, for such was his name, was looking through some of the old rooms. While in the library he noticed a small writing desk. On opening it he found only one drawer, which slid back and forth upon a small shelf. When closing it the back caught on, something and refused to go clear in. Using a little extra force on the handle he heard something click and the drawer slid in with ease. But when he pulled it out again the whole frame which enclosed the drawer came with it. In the top of the frame was a hollow deep enough to hold a large flat package. Upon examining it he found it to be some valuable papers and also the will. Everyone knew that Dr. Wentworth was Alexander’s favorite and it was generally expected that he would inherit the large part of the estate, as Alexander had no children and his wife was dead. When the document was opened and read, it was found that the doctor had ieceived one-half c. the money and the rest was to be divided equally among the rest of his relations. A private account book showed the fortune to amount to $150,000, but no bank book could be found. Finally one of the people present remembered that Alexander had no confidence in banks and never kept any of his money there, so if he had as much money as his records showed, it must be that it was secreted about the premises. 1 wilight had now fallen so nothing more was done that day or for several days after. In fact the doctor was about to drop the matter, as ho had a large fortune him self. Several days after the reading of the will, the doctor was going through the old house. He was in the attic and was going through some old letters when he came upon -an old paper with nothing on it except the words, invisible ink, at the top of the page. Thinking it might be of some importance he took it home with him and held it close to the fire. Slowly these words came to view: TO FIND THE TREASURE, GO TO THE PARLOR AND MEASURE FIYrE FEET STRAIGHT EAST FROM THE PICTURE OF OLD COLONEL PYNCHEON, THEN FIFTEEN FEET SIX INCHES STRAIGHT SOUTH. THEN RAISE THE CORNER OF THE CARPET AND PUSH EACK THE SLIDE. AND DESCEND THE LADDER TO THE BASEMENT. THEN MEASURE-------. It was not clear after the word measure, so the doctor could not make it out. As soon as he had finished with this paper, he hastened to the old house that was supposed to contain the money. Upon gaining entrance he immediately went to the parlor and made the necessary measurements and lifted the corner of the carpet. Everything was as described in the paper, so as soon as he pushed back the slide and went down the ladder, he found himself in the cellar. He had neglected to bring a light with him so he was in total darkness. As soon as he had procured a light he returned and made the last measurement. Just as he was examining the wall, his foot caught on something and threw him headlong, and also put out the light. In searching for the lamp, his hands came in contact with a piece of iron. At first it seemed to be firmly imbedded in the earth, but upon being shaken, it gradually worked free. Then rising to his feet, the doctor gave a great pull on the crooked end, and suddenly the whole wall seemed to give way in front of him. One fair sized stone hit him on the head. Bright flashes appeared before his eyes. Then everything went black. 42 When the doctor regained consciousness he did not at first realize where he was, but as his mind cleared, he gradually awoke to a realization of his surroundings. His head ached as if it would burst, although the rock had hit it a glancing blow. He rose unsteadily to his feet and lit his lamp with his flint and steel. When the flame flared up, judge his surprise to see an opening before him containing fully twenty-four square feet. He held the light in the opening and discovered a room about 10x12 feet. In one corner was an old oak chest, which was secured by an iron band and a huge padlock. Upon examining it he found that the staple in which the lock hung was almost consumed by rust. One hard wrench finished the work begun by rust and left the chest free to be opened. He almost feared to raise the lid, but, conquering this dread, he opened the chest and laid bare the contents. In the top was a shallow tray which contained some old papers, which later proved to be some stock in a trading company back in England. Under this tray was a second, containing some old silver plate and old fashioned jewelry. Under this was by far the richest treasure of all. Piles of gold and silver coin fully eight inches high covered the entire bottom of the chest. He had accidentally found the treasure. The next day the wealth was divided as had been specified in the will. That afternoon the doctor was looking through the secret room with some of his relatives, when he heard the sound of running water. Holding the light close to the ceiling he discovered two leaden pipes coming from the ground in opposite directions and meeting about the center of the room. An architect was called in to explain these pipes but he said he could tell nothing about them unless he cut small holes in each. This he did and water came in tiny streams from each. The water from each pipe was tested and the first proved to be very soft and pleasant to the taste while the second turned out to be so bitter that it puckered a person’s mouth. The water was then tested at the union of the two pipes and it proved to be identical to that of Maule’s Well. The architect explained the presence of the pipes in this manner. During the building of the house, old Colonel Pyncheon had this secret chamber built. During the digging an unknown spring and the channel of Maule’s well were tapped about the same time, and as the new spring had no outlet the waters were joined and both turned into one main outlet, thus making the waters that had formerly been sweet, hard, as they were at that present day. Thus one of the most baffling mysteries of that day was cleared up by accident. 42 y--v T U551NS” SAILING “SHE'S A FRIEND TO ALL OF US.” 'IMM‘ ME R JUNIORS: Pleasing LAYFUL OSING PETTY flULINE IERCE A SUNDAY'S OUTING 44 A Modern Cinderella (Second Prize.) MARGA RET McCONN ELL. It was certainly blue Monday. Blue, real indigo blue! To begin with, the sun had absolutely refused to show his face. Not that anyone blamed him, if he could have managed by some herculean effort to have penetrated through the great, thick overhanging, gloomy, gray mass of clouds, the only sight to have repaid him for the effort, was miles of mud and water, dripping and slippery walks. But being possessed of experience, he did not think it worth while to make the effort. So the little town of Shelly was left sunless, cheerless, and gloomy. It was certainly a very discouraging day for one te be obliged to go to school and have to wear ones best Sunday shoes through all that mud, without rubbers. It did not tend to make one any more cheerful to have to admit that it was one’s own iault that rubbers and an umbrella had been left at a particular chum’s home. Betty was naturally of a cheerful disposition. But a sunless, cheerless day with a secret knowledge of a half-prepared Latin lesson, had their enervating effect upon her. She was in a state of “nerves” when she finally reached the class room. The morning dragged wearily along. Betty tried and did manage to get through the Algebra recitation and to gain a few precious moments to apply to her neglected Latin. But still her face betrayed the unusual gloom. “What’s the matter, Betty Boo?” said one of her class-mates, caressingly at the morning recess. “Betty Boo” was a nick name given her by her chums. She had acquired this from her merry habit of bursting in ui on a group, always with a “Boo! girls, here I am!M Of course the Betty came from Elizabeth. But anyone who ever knew Betty' would not have to be told how utterly impossible was stately, dignified Elizabeth. So in the natural sequence of things it had to be Betty—and it had seemed natural to add the “Boo!” So “Betty Bco” she was to one and all who knew her well. “Betty Boo” sighed and looked out of the window at the sky, atmosphere, and ground; then, with another sigh, at her muddy shoes. “Come, cheer up Betty Boo! I’ll pass the hat and take up a collection, and you can get Tony the boot-black, to give you a real ten-cent shine,” said one of the girls. “Come, come, don’t mind the absence of the sun,” said another, “there goes the bell and the worst is yet to come.” The group laughing at this, even Betty, sought their seats. “Now for the horrid old Latin lesson.” Betty was conscious of her lack of preparation, so, when Professor Ellison called for the present tense, passive voice of ‘ Amo,” she gave active instead, then when the Professor corrected her. she started with the passive, mixed it up, broke down, then started again with passive voice. Then ihe Professor said with severity: “Miss Elizabeth, you may remain at the close of the afternoon session.” So now' she w'as sitting all alone in the big, horrid school room, waiting for the appearance of the Professor. She had learned the conjugation, both active and passive. She could give it now without a mistake. She looked at the little time-piece strapped to her wrist. “Four-thirty,” it said. She wondered why the Professor w as so � cng in coming. She w'aited a while longer—still no professor. She took out he ' algebra; she would prepare that for tomorrow'. She worked busily for some time. Then she heard a step. Well, at last the worst w'as at hand. Betty’s heart beat hard and fast The door opened to admit—not the Professor but the Janitor! “Why, Miss, w’hat you doin’ heali?” he asked. “I am waiting to see Professor Ellison—by request,” said Betty. 45 t f “Well, Miss, he has been gone some two hours,” said the janitor. “1 saw him leave soon after dismissal bell rang. I guess he clean, plumb forgot his appointment to see you. I would consider the engagement cancelled or postponed, at any rate, if 1 was you, and get right along home.” Betty replied: “Thanks, I think 1 will.” It was a very indignant Betty that trudged along home. To have to be told before the whole class to remain after school, then to be totally forgotten! It was too much! She slipped in the back way and ran up to her room. She threw herself on the bed and burst into an uncontrollable storm of weeping. After a while she sat up with swollen eyes and burning cheeks. She gave a few little short catchy sobs. But still she kept wondering what could have been so important as to make the Professor so utterly forgetful of her. She dried her eyes, combed her hair and really felt much better. When Betty went down to supper, there were no visible signs of her recent stormy outburst, thanks to the soothing effect of the cold cream, abundantly applied and the finishing touches of the dainty powder-puff. When the family were all seated at the table, Tom, Betty’s big, handsome, uncle, remarked: “I saw Professor Ellison, in the barber shop this afternoon. He says Fred Grant is coming down for the big ‘blow out’ tonight. I say, I’ll be jolly glad to see Fred. Can i have him up to supper soon, sister mine?” Betty’s mother smilingly nodded her head, saying, “I’ll be pleased to see Fred myself.” “Professor says Fred is very enthusiastic over the affair. You see this is his first Alumni. He only graduated last year from the same college the Professor did,” said Tom. “Is Professor Ellison going to the Alumni ball tonight, Tom?” asked Betty's mother “Why, yes,” answered Tom. “O, I see now,” said she, “Miss Sherman, the teacher, telephoned me yesterday asking if she might have her masquerade suit sent here and come here to dress. She wanted me to help her, but she wouldn’t say with whom she was going, but I think I know. It must be Professor Ellison.” The conversation changed to other topics. But Betty knew now why the Professor had forgotten her. “Well,” she thought, as she went up to her room, “I’ll have good lessons tomorrow. for no doubt he’ll be like an old bear after being out so late.” So she began to apply herself. She had nearly finished when she heard the telephone ringing, then her mother’s voice answering. “Betty,” called her mother, “Mrs. Brown has just ’phoned that Johnny has the croup, she thinks, and Mr. Brown is out of town, and she is afraid to be alone. She wants me to stay with her tonight. Now you explain to Miss Sherman and have Nina do her hair for her and help her with her dress. I’ll have Nina sleep in your room. Tom will be in by twelve, I guess. If anything goes wrong telephone me. Now be sure you explain that Johnny has the croup, to Miss Sherman.” So kissing Betty goodbye, good motherly Mrs. Stamford hastened on her errand of mercy. Scarcely had Betty’s mother been gone ten minutes, when the door bell rang. The maid, Nina, answered the door. Betty wondered what it was, but said nothing. Suddenly another peal of the bell, then whir! went the telephone. The maid was at the door, so Betty flew down the stairs, thinking, possibly it was her mother who was at the ’phone. But it was Miss Sherman. She had just received a telegram, she said, saying that her mother, in« a distant town, was ill and she was leaving on the first 4f train. Would Mrs. Stamford see that the suit was returned? She was in a hurry, but would write. “Nina,” said Betty. “Miss Sherman is not going to the ball tonight, her mother is very ill.” “Oh,” said Nina, “isn’t that toe bad and her costume has just come and also a box of beautiful roses. I’ll have to put them in water.” They wsre certainly beautiful. Such a lovely pink with the dainty green. Oh,” sighed Betty, with her nose among them. “Oh! but they are b-e.a-u-t-i- f-u-1!” Because they felt lonely, Nina soon locked up the down stairs and they went up to Betty’s room. Betty, having prepared her lessons so early, had nothing to do. Suddenly she had an idea. “Oh, Nina,” she exclaimed, “dress me up, just for tun. I am most as big as Miss Sherman. Oh, please, please do! It will be jolly! 1 will do a real skirt dance and maybe an Irish jig for you. Oh, please do!” The costume was all laid out, ready for Miss Sherman in the best spare bedroom. So Nina good-naturedly agreed to dress Miss Betty. Now' Betty had an abundance of nut-brown, wavy hair, which Nina with deft fingers proceeded to coil up in the most approved manner of the old Colonial days, not forgetting a nice fat curl clinging to one side of her neck. After this task was completed, it was given a generous dose of powder, much to Betty’s delight. Then the costume was put on. “Oh! It just fits you to a T. Miss Betty,” said Nina. “My, but I wish I could go to the ball tonight,” said Betty. “I can dance, you know. Wouldn’t it be fine to go? I wish Uncle Tom was here, I believe he would take me.” After a great deal of parading before the glass and many flattering compliments from Nina, with the assurance that she looked a real and truly Martha Washington, Betty proceeded to give the promised skirt dance for the entertainment of Nina. Jingle! Jingle! went the door bell. “Oh,” said Betty, all out of breath, “let me go! It must be mother, let me surprise her.” So awray she tripped down the stairs, followed by Nina. She unlocked the door to admit her mother,—there stood a man instead. “Good evening. Miss Sherman,” said a muffled voice. “Oh!” said Betty, gasping. “It’s you Professor Ellison. Won’t you come in?” “Why, no,” he said, “if you are ready we will go at once. It is getting just a little late. The cab is waiting.” Never in her life did Betty make such a quick decision. She wanted to go; here was opportunity really knocking at her door. She could play Cinderella and return before the unmasking, of course they would find out afterwards. But, oh, what fun to make the Professor think she was Miss Sherman. Well, it would serve him right. He had not treated her right and revenge is sw'eet. All these thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant. Then turning to Nina she said, “Nina, pin those rcses on me and bring me my coat. I am going to the ball—as Miss Sherman,” she added in an undertone. It was with a fast beating heart that Betty allowed herself to be handed into the waiting cab. The mask and rattle of the cab seemed to explain any oddness in their voices. The brief view Betty had of her companion, revealed to her that, with his knee breeches, silver buckled slippers and the three-cornered hat, with his powdered wig, he wras George Washington. Arriving at the ball room, her companion gravely and gallantly escorted her to the dressing room, where she hastily removed her wrap. Her heart, although exceeding the regular speed limit, had slow'ed dow n enough 47 for her breath to catch up. So with a toss of her head, and a shrug of her shoulders, she comforted herself with the thought that she was in for it now, and might as well have all the fun she could,—and she did. Betty could dance well at any time, but under the excitement, she far outshone her former feats. She was besieged with partners, for every dance. But what surprised her most was the number of dances the Professor claimed. How lovely he could waltz! How could any one be so splendid and yet be so severe in the class-room, thought Betty. Merrily, merrily, on went the dance, and merrily, merrily, flew Betty’s feet. Surely Cinderella could not have had such pleasure. They were just half through the Lancers, when Betty heard some one say, “Just half an hour, we unmask at eleven-thirty.” Betty’s heart bounded. She must get away just as soon as this dance was ended. Where was the Professor? What if he should insist upon staying? But no, the fates were with her, for at the close of the dance here was the Professor looking for her. Before he could claim her for the following dance, she murmured, Oh, I am afraid T am tired. Don’t you think it very warm?” Yes,” he answered, “it is warm. Come with me.” So taking his arm the lovely Martha Washington and the stately George passed out of the ball room. As their promenade took them past the cloak room, Betty was thinking hard. Could she manage to faint? Xo, that would cause a commotion. She decided she would plead extreme fatigue and ask to be taken home. So busy with ner thoughts was Betty, that she hadn’t noticed that the Professor had turned aside into a rustic alcove and—Betty’s heart leaped into her throat! Could it be possible? Was the Professor going to propose? Oh, what if he should? But no! what was this he was saying? Although panic stricken, and on the verge of tears, she heard him say: Miss Sherman, I don’t know what you are going to think. I have no excuse to offer.” Betty put out her hand in protest. She must stop him. But he insisted. “T must explain,” he said. I am not Professor Ellison, T am an imposter!” Here Betty suddenly sat up very straight. Not Professor Ellison? Then who on earth was he, and what had she done? Gone, an invited guest to a ball and—and -with an unknown man! She could not speak. So the masculine voice went on: “When Professor was returning from town late this afternoon, he accidentally slipped on the muddy crossing and was unfortunate enough to give his right ankle a severe wrench. It was necessary to call assistance to get him to a doctor’s office. It took some time for the doctor to get it properly bandaged, it was so badly swollen. So it was late when he reached his room. His first thought was the impossibility of his attending the affair tonight. “He had me try time and time again to telephone you. Then he recalled that you were to be at Mrs. Stamford’s. Then when he realized how late it was, and that you were probably all dressed for the ball, he said to me, ‘You go in my place, Fred. Take my suit and I will write a note of introduction and explanation. Miss Sherman should not be deprived of the evening’s pleasure on account of my unfortunate accident. So. hastily dressing in the chosen suit of the Professor, I was soon ready. Not until T had reached Mrs. Stamford’s, did T remember that I had left the note. Here was real trouble. What to do I did not know, but the cabman had opened the door and was waiting. I must go in, introduce myself, explain and apologize. But when you met me at the door and thought I was Professor Ellison, being ready, ! weakened. Besides there was the maid. I thought I would explain on the way, but somehow I felt if you knew the truth it might spoil your evening. So, it was 48 cowardly, I know, but I put it off. But I just had to tell you before they unmasked, for it wouldn’t have been right for the rest to see your surprise. 1 know 1 bungled this affair and am a traitor to the trust the Processor had in me. He and I have long been friends. He was my teacher in the state college. I am Fred Grant, the Professor’s guest,” he concluded, removing his mask. “I can’t ask for pardon, but please don’t let it spoil your evening.” Like an image of stone sat Betty, while he had hurried along in his explanation. Not the Professor!—but Fred Grant, Uncle Tom's best chum! Oh! what a glorious joke! What a relief! (For Betty had been regretting what she had done.) Now that she knew who it was, how could she ever have thought that it was Professor Ellison? Then she remembered that Fred still thought she was Miss Sherman. It was too much! She burst into a rippling peal of laughter. Poor Fred! he was amazed! Betty laughed until the tears ran down her face, and she raised the mask to wipe them away. Then Fred saw! “By Jove,” he exclaimed, “the joke is on me! You are Betty—Mftss Stamford, I mean. Tom’s little n----!” Here he joined in the laugh. “How about Miss Sherman?” asked Fred, suddenly looking sober. Had he bungled this thing worse than he knew, and left Miss Sherman waiting at home. Then smiling, dimpling Betty explained about the telegram for Mies Sherman, saying that her mother was very ill and Mrs. Stam. ford’s being called away, and how she had dressed up just for fun, his coming and her daring to play a joke on Professor Ellison because he had humiliated her so before the class, by telling her to stay after school. Then how he had gone away and forgotten her. “I must go home at once. I am an uninvited guest, and,” she said, looking at Fred beseechingly, “they must never know!” “They will never learn of it from me,” he hastily assured her. Next morning Betty confessed to her mother. She felt she must do that. To 3ay that Mrs. Stamford was shocked is only a mild expression. Betty very humbly accepted her reproof. The awfulness of the thought, if it had been the Professor! and he had discovered it was her! Oh!—Betty never allowed herself to think any farther. Professor Ellison soon recovered from his accident and Miss Sherman returned, but they never knew of the affair. Betty never saw either without a shiver, and she always had a perfect lesson after that. Fred was a frequent visitor at the Stamford home—to see Tom of course? But “they say” who ever “they” are (I am sure I don’t know, do you?) but anyway “they say” Betty’s dream of college life and a grand career, are in danger of not materializing, that is, if Fred Grant has his way. And between you and me I think he will. 49 I he alloy Called the Grand (First Prize.) MARGARET McCONNELL. Girt ’round with rugged mountains, Fair Grand Valley lies, With her heritage of sun and water, 'Tis a land of Paradise. From my doorway, to the east. In pensive mood I stand; I behold the works of nature In the Mesa called the Grand. Slowly sinks the evening sun. Beyond the mountains in the West, Softly creeps the tents and shadows In the Mesa’s mighty breast. High above the lofty peaks, She rears her mighty form. First to sense the changing season. First to sense the coming storm. Deep in canon and in cavern, Where the pine and pinion grow, The Snow King hoards his treasure For the valley down below. When the quaking-asp and cedar Whisper to the pine, “Don’t you hear the bluebird singing? It must be the glad Springtime.” The south wind gently whispers To the Fairy King of Snow, “The thirsty land is waiting, You must bid the water flow.” The sun then, with the south wind. Change to riverlets the snow. And they join the mighty river For the valley down below. And here this mighty river Turned aside by man. What once was barren desert. Is now. “The Valley of the Grand.” 50 Surrounded by a mountain wall. Where the Storm King has warpath, Safely rests the lovely valley, Free from the Storm King’s wrath. Oh, the fragrance of the valley! Where peach and apple bloom, And the breezes of the mountain, Mingle with orchards’ sweet perfume. Oh! the liquid notes of meadow lark, How I love to hear her sing! While from bough of yonder tree top Robin Red-breast says, “ 'Tis spring!” You may seek the wide world o'er; North and south, east and west; You cannot find a fairer spot. For our motto is, “The Best.” Would you seek a home of plenty, A wealth-producing land? Then I bid you come and tarry, In the Valley of the Grand. When for me life’s shadows gather. In this valley of the west, And I hear the ‘ One clear call, Life is over: now comes rest.” When the soul and body sever. Should my fate and wish agree, I shall rest through all eternity ’Neath a valley orchard tree. The Lucky Horseshoe (Second Prize.) MADGE DAVIS. A farmer was goiiig home from town, His wagon with purchases laden down, When, just beiore him in the dust, He saw a horseshoe covered with rust. The man believed, as many men do, That good luck comes with an old horseshoe, And stopping old Dobbin’s easy swing, He resolved tc get down and get the thing. His luck began right then and there. For a scuttling rabbit gave Dobbin a scare. And the poor old farmer with all his trust, Found his Sunday clothes all covered with dust. Far down the road the old nag stopped; The farmer collecting the things that were dropped, Started out on the homeward road again, With his eye on the clouds suggesting rain. But he did not leave the horseshoe there, In spite of all his troubles and care. But placed it carefully by his side, To bring him good luck for the rest of his ride. The raindrops were falling thick and fast, When the farmyard gate he finally passed, And he saw in the meadow the new mown hay Which now all spoiled on the wet ground lay. ’Midst the lashes of his wife’s sharp tongue, The horseshoe above the door he hung. But the luck it brought did not bring gain, For the weavel began to destroy the grain. The hired man refused there to longer stay, Unless the farmer would raise his pay, The horseshoe fell down on the farmer’s head, And in twenty-four hours the farmer was dead. But the lucky horseshoe still remains, Bringing ruinous pests and destructive rains; Yet still, like the farmer, we give our trust To an unlucky horseshoe covered with rust. 52 Glee Clubs “The man that hath no music in himself, and is not moved with concord of sweet sounds is fit for treason, strategems and spoils. Let no such man be trusted. Miss Moulton waves the magic wand that produces this music from the following glee clubs: The Girls’ Glee Club, the Franklin Glee Club and the Boys’ Glee Club. Each club practices at least once a week. The natives never allow them to practice twice in the same place. When Mark Twain said of classical music, “It is better than it sounds.” he must have been listening to our Boys’ Glee Club singing “There Was, There Was, a Tack, a Tack; There Was a Teacher, Too.” “There is music in the sighing of a reed. There is music in the gushing of a rill.” There are forty lovely “gushers” in the Girls’ Glee Club. The Girls’ Glee Club is composed of the girls of the three upper classes, and since the Freshmen are so exclusive as to have a building of their own, they have their own Franklin Glee Club. Membership in these clubs is entirely voluntary. The Glee Club sang for the County Teachers’ convention. The music was splendid and greatly appreciated by all. The entertainment on which the greatest effort of the year was made was the operetta, “The Windmills of Holland,” given April 3, 1914, at the Majestic theater. This was the first time in the history of the school that an entertainment of this kind had ever been given. The proceeds went to the Athletic fund. There w’ere about forty who took part in it. All were dressed in the quaint Holland costume and made a striking picture. Miss Moulton, the director, is very popular with the students, and she stimulates in them a desire to do their very best. She was ably assisted by Miss Lind ley, and Miss Wilhelmy. The eight leading characters of the cast were: Mynheer Hertogenbosch, a rich Holland farmer—Russell H. Coles. Vrouw Hertogenbosch, his wife—Ruth Marie Smith. Wilhelmina, their daughter—Marian Hatch. Hilda, another daughter—Bernice Burkett. Bob Yankee—American salesman—Orville Levan. Hans—student of music, in love with Wilhemina—Glenn Cheedle. Frank—rich farmer’s son, in love with Hilda—Paul Knight. Katrina—rich farmer’s daughter—Jessie Sawyer. The Class Play The Romantic Comedy, A Rose O’ Plymouth Town.’’ by Beulah Marie Dix and Evelyn Greenleaf Sutherland will be given by the Senior Class of T4 on June 2. The cast was selected by Miss Lindley, who is training them. The play takes place at Plymouth in New England between the years 1622 and 1623. It is divided into four acts. Act I.—An early morning in August.—Stolen Fruit. Act II.—An afternoon in October.—A Maid’s Toys. Act III.—A night in March.—The Red Light on the Snow. Act. IV.—The next afternoon.—The Better Man. The play opens with Barbara, wife of Captain Miles Standish, Miriam, who loves John Margeson, and Aunt Resolute Story. 53 “WINDMILLS OF HOLLAND' There is trouble in Plymouth Colony with Weston's men, and the men of Plymouth are planning some remedy for it. Although Miriam is very much in love with him, John Margeson pays little attention to her. He seems to have taken a great fancy to Rose, the little French girl. Rose and Miriam are very closely attached to each other and Rose decides to make John pay for his disloyalty to her friend. Garrett Foster steals some corn, which at that time was as prescious as gold, from the fields of the Colony. He comes to the house where Rose is, and for some reason she hides him. Naturally they fall deeply in love with each other. Jealousy arises between John and Garrett, and as a result they have a fight. Phillippe, the brother of Rose, is accidentally wounded. Garrett is banished from the colony by Miles Stan-dish. Garrett, almost frozen, returns later to warn Plymouth of the Indians who are on the war path. During this same night he holds the stockade unaided. Because Garrett had on the red British coat of John, the latter is given the credit. It was later found out that Garret was the real hero. Rose takes the better man, Garrett. John is sent to the government. Phillippe and Miriam are betrothed later. Barbara and Aunt Resolute are always present with their advice and assist in bringing about a happy finale. CAST.

County Debating find Oratorical Contest 101. } Last September, a large, new pennant was hung in the front of our assembly room. On it were the words, “Champion Debaters, Mesa County, '13.” The boys who •von this pennant for us were Russell Coles and Horace Hopkins. At the county meet last year at Fruita, on the question, “Resolved, that the Initiative and Referendum should be generally adopted for state legislation.” they won an overwhelming victory over their opponents. The following evening. May 11, Edward Wilson easily won the oratorical contest, and received a gold medal. The excellent work these boys deserved a large attendance of the Grand Junction students, and faculty, though very few manifested any interest. 55 County Champion Orator 1913 County Champion Debaters 1913 SOPHOMORE DEBATE One of the most anticipated literary events each year is the Sophomore historical debate. On April 16, 1914, the twelfth annual debate was given, the question this year being, Resolved, that the Grecian Empire has done more for the modern world than Rome.” The affirmative was supported by Mark Knight, Helen Smith and Willard Barnett; the negative by Herbert Nichols, Agnes Hale and Harold Holmburg. Henry Fidel, president of the class, was chairman. After prolonged deliberation, the judges rendered their decision in favor of the affirmative, giving Willard Barnett first place, Helen Smith second, and Harold Holmburg third. To these three, books, purchased by the Sophomores, were awarded as prizes. In connection with the debate the following program was given: Piano Solo.........................................................Lillian Glasco Reading ......................................................Marslene Chambers Vocal Solo.......................................................Bernice Burkett Piano Solo.......................................................Blanche Paxson 57 JUNIOR-SENIOR PARTY. On the night of February the fourteenth, the Juniors most delightfully entertained the Seniors at a party given at Margery Hall. The large room was artistically decorated in red crepe streamers which were festooned from the corners and sides of the room and converged in the center in a shower of hearts and cupids. Large pennants hung at each end of the room under the canopies. The smaller room was decorated in crange and black streamers and many beautiful pennants hung upon the walls. One especially interesting feature of this room was a group of pictures in a large frame. Upon close inspection these proved to be pictures of some of our dignified Seniors in the time that was. This was a complete surprise, as the Juniors had obtained these pictures unbeknown to us. We easily recognized the bright and smiling face of Horace, and Hazel was there with her little kitten in her arms. Various other pictures of happy childhood days confronted the Seniors, and several persons were heard to remark, Oh! What a change!” 1 lie first pat t of the evening was spent in amusing and enjoyable games, and about ten o'clock the party adjourned to Sawyer's for “eats.” The banquet room was a most pleasing sight; it was decorated in the Senior Class colors, blue and gold. The long tables were prettily arranged and the Junior colors were prominent in the 58 lavender candle shades and the lavender and white mints. After a most delicious repast, the prizes were given for the different contests in the earlier part of the evening. Several toasts and speeches were made, Rex Rankin acting as toastmaster. Arch, ie Sills gave a short talk on “Class Spirit and Class Fights.” This was followed by a short talk by Arthur Chapman on ‘Baseball;’’ the last of these interesting speeches was an amusing bear story by Superintendent Allen. The party then, returned to Margery Hall and spent the rest of the evening in games and dancing, and as the last strains of the “Home, Sweet Home” waltz died away the Juniors and Seniors departed to their homes, each feeling that a most enjoyable and memorable evening had passed all too quickly. •JUXIOIl-SEBJIOR BANQUET OF 1913, Owing to the early publication of last year’s Annual, the banquet given by the Juniors in compliment to the Seniors was of necessity omitted. After the Commencement exercises the Juniors, Seniors, School Board, Facul. ty and the honored guest. Rabbi Friedman, adjourned to the La Court Hotel for the banquet. The room was beautifully decorated in the Senior class colors, violet and white. Large bouquets of lavender and white peonies adorned the long tables, and the silver candle-sticks with their brightly burning candles made a most pleasing scene. At each plate were beautiful hand-painted place cards and menu cards. A spray of violets was painted on these and the names were printed in gold letters. The menu consisted of the following: Salted Wafers Radishes, Pickles, Iced Cucumbers Chicken Patties with Mushrooms French Peas Mashed Potatoes French Rolls Fruit Salad Mint Wafers Neapolitan ice Cream. Cake Coffee Salted Nuts. After the banquet the following toasts and responses were made: Toast Master—Robert Rhone. To The Seniors...... Response ........... To The Ladies....... Response ........... To The Faculty...... Response ........... To The Board........ Response ........... To Our Honored Guest Response ............ ......Ardis Mozingo .....Warren Harris .....Leslie Stevens .......Lenore Neeb ... William Anderson .......Julia Carlson ....Florence Allen ---Dr. G. R. Warner ......Russell Coles Dr. Wm. S. Friedman Shortly after midnight the guests departed and each one spoke in appreciation of the efforts put forth by the Junior Class and the committee in charge of the affair to make the banquet of ’13 one of the most pleasant irn the history of G. J. H. S. 59 S F NIOU-JUMOR I A 1ITY. The Seniors entertained the Juniors on the evening of Aj)ril the eighteenth at Margery Hall. The party was a hard time affair and the guests were dressed accordingly. Prizes were awarded for the best costumes, or rather the worst. The principal feature of the evening was an indoor track-meet, which consisted of races, games, etc. The latter part of the evening was spent in dancing and, despite i ne ragged costumes, every one enjoyed themselves immensely. Delicious ice cream was served on paste-board plates, and an abundant supply of cake accompanied it. This was the last party at which the Seniors entertain the Juniors during the school term, and their guests felt that they had been entertained in a most delightful manner. THE DELTA EXCURSION On the morning of November the twenty-second, a large crowd of H. S. students and G. J. people went on the excursion to Delta. The train left soon after eight o’clock nnd the time quickly passed in singing and yelling for our old High. About eleven o’clock we arrived in Delta town and were met at the depot by the band and a good- ly bunch of rooters who escorted us up town. At noon we ate the delicious turkey dinner served at the Baptist church with a “coming” or a “becoming’ appetite. (The Tigers ate with a “coming” appetite but the turkey failed to arrive at their plates and gracefully went to roost until after the game when the Tigers ate dinner and the rest of us had ‘‘lunch.’ ) In the evening after the basketball game the Delta students entertained the visitors at a reception and dance. At ten thirty, the train started homeward and in spite of the sandman” the bunch managed to keep awake, for anyone caught napping was in immediate danger of an attack, for it was no time for “pleasant dreams.’’ In the wee, small hours of morning a tired but happy crowd arrived at the Union Depot and went heme to get a few hours sleep before breakfast. THE FOOTBALL BANQUET The “Tigers” were royally entertained at the St. Regis on the evening of December the twenty-seventh. Local admirers gave the boys a splendid banquet and everyone was very proud, indeed, of the Champions of Colorado. Professor Dodds was toastmaster of the occasion and the following persons made most interesting responses: Henry R. Rhone, “Football;” Prof. J. II. Allen, “Success of Football;” Glen Schrader, “Why We Won;” Capt. Arthur Chapma n, “Prospects for Next Year’s Team;” Robert Rhone, “Finance;” Harry Hill, “How I Trained;” Phillip McCary, “College Football and Blacksmithing;” Willard Ross, “College and High School Football;” Prof. R E. Tope, “Football versus. Books;” Referee Albrecht, “A Good Game;” C. E. Ross, “Why We Support Football;” Glen Merrill, “History of Grand Junction Football;” Coach Frank Du Cray, “Summary of the Year.” Herman Vorbeck presented the handsome pennant to the players with a most interesting and delightful speech. Glen Schrader was unanimously elected captain of the 1914 Tigers. It was a late hour when the banqueters left the hotel and all felt that this season of football had been worth while and had been a most successful year foi high school athletics. 60 KELLEY’S ARMY. DEAN OF WOMEN SHOW-DER BOWES. A A Freshman Sophomore Junior Senior HOW THEY GROW. 61 The students have enjoyed many fine lectures and musical entertainments this year at the high school building. Each Wednesday morning Supt. Allen has asked some person to give us a short lecture or a vocal or instrumental recital. The student body always looked forward to these programs with great pleasure. Among the lectures we have especially enjoyed were those delivered by Gov. Ammons and Congressman Taylor. Gov. Ammons lectured on “The Call of Colorado.” Mr. Taylor s subject was “Eife at Washington, D. C.” Prof. Motton of Colorado College gave an interesting address also, his subject was “English As the Most Important Study.” We are indeed glad to have had the opportunity of hearing these lectures as well as the many others which have been delivered this year at school . The High School benefits have all been a huge success this year, and Robert Rhone is to be congratulated for his ability to carry on such campaigns for raising money for the Athletic Association. The benefits at the Majestic and Crystal theatres have been well attended and the students hive all shown real school spirit in the buying and selling of tickets. The Popularity Contest” and benefit given at the two theatres was most exciting and drew a large crowd. The pictures were especially good, and on the whole it was a most successful affair. SOPHOMORE BANQUET. The Sophomore banquet, held as usual after the annual debate, was especially enjoyed by all the Sophomores on April 18, at the St. Regis hotel. Although many attempts were made by the upper classmen to capture the members of the class, all reached their destination except our worthy history teacher. During the evening the following enjoyable program was rendered with Mark Knight acting as toastmaster: Toast to the Roman Debaters—Helen Smith. Toast to the Greek Debaters—Harold Holmburg. Reading—Helen Ryan. Reading—Marslene Chambers. COMMENCEMENT W EEK. The baccalaureate sermon will be delivered by Rev. Shattuck at the Congregational church on the evening of May the thirty-first. The class play will be given at the Majestic theater at eight o'clock on the evening of June the second. On the fourth of June the commencement exercises will be held at the Park opera house. This is the night of nights” for the Senior class, for it is the first and last time we will ever graduate from our dear old High. Principal Kelley of the Colorado State Normal will deliver the commencement address. After the exercises the Juniors will entertain the Seniors at a banquet. This is the grand affair of the school year, and is always anticipated with great pleasure. 62 9 9 Athletic s G3 MR. FRANK N. DU CRAY OUR ATHLETIC COACH. To the careful coaching and training of Mr. Frank N. Du Cray, the student body rightfully attributes Grand Junction’s recent triumphs on the football field. He inspires his men with his own determined and nervy spirit; and, by patient training, he brings to the surface their utmost capabilities. It is much to his credit, that, with insufficient facilities, with few exceptional pupils, he has turned out teams which call forth the admiration and the confidence of the school. He, too, should have the unqualified backing of loyal students; for, in athletics as in life’s work, unified effort is necessary to the highest success. The entire student body hope to see Mr. Da Cray with us next year. 64 Flic Athletic Association Coach—Frank Du Cray. Chairman—Principal R. E. Tope. Secretary-Treasurer—Homer Dodds. Advertising Manager—Robert Rhone. Though the Athletic Association this year numbered over fifty members, many of these were persuaded to join only by offering them a season ticket to the football games. It is surely a reflection of discredit upon Grand Junction H. S., that its students are not sufficiently interested in its foremost activity to join the body which presides over this, without a special inducement. Yet, such is the situation. The athletic enterprises of the school have been a great success. For the first time the Association has allowed the girls to join them, and this was a good step and it should be carried farther by electing a board of directors and allowing the girls to be members of it. There is no reason to regret this; on the contrary, at almost every meeting called by the President, all officers and members were present. During the last two years the school has not been represented on the baseball diamond, but I am sure that with the interest that a few of us are working up, we will have a team on the diamond this year. While the team’s reception in previous years has been rather a dubious one, it is to be hoped that the students will awake to the pressing need for their support, and, by a hearty response, round out the prestige of Grand Junction in athletics. The retiring officers wish for those to come all success in the administration of that school activity which has heretofore been such a success; may they carry on the work which has been thus far nobly advanced.

We were indeed fortunate to have the services of an up-to-date coach, Frank DuCray, who was placed in this position by our Board of Education. Practice began in earnest, with two squads on the field every night, and every man meaning business. Our first games showed something unusual in new material. We won three games straight from Fruita, totalling 59 to Fruita’s 0. After the third game the men resolved to do their best to go through the season without being scored against. With a •‘Goose Egg” as the goal of our opponents, we worked harder and more diligently than ever. Delta was our next victim and we all knew that we must play “football” to carry out our resolution. The day came, with a large crowd of rooters on the side lines for both teams. In the first five minutes of play we had scored a touchdown and when time was called the score stood 25 to 0, in a hard fought game, in our favor. Glenwood on the following Saturday was an easy victory by a score of 47 to 0, for us. Again we must meet Delta, but this time on her grounds. We took some hundred and fifty rooters along with the earnest resolution of repeating the score of a fortnight before. Time was called and when the whistle blew for the first half we had 26 to Delta’s 0. In the second half w’e were forced to punt in the last two minutes of play. By accident the ball struck our left half on the arm and bounced straight across the field. A Delta man recovered the ball on our two-yard line and thru a fluke Delta was given 6 points, this being the only scoring done against us during the season. Thanksgiving Day, on the following Thursday, closed the season. This game wras played with Price, Utah, on our grounds, before a crowd of several hundred rooters. The first half was a hard fought battle resulting in no scoring for either side. G. J. rallied in the second half and when the time was called the score stood 40 to 0 in Junction’s favor. Thus, wre are Western Colorado and Eastern Utah Champions for the season closing Nov. 27, 1913. The prospects for next year are even better than they were this. Only four men will be lost through graduation, still some thirty-eight rooters will graduate whom we will sadly miss. With Schrader as captain and with Murray, Rayburn, Franks, Hill, Peck, Gallupe, Rankin, Rhone, Johnson, Stong, and several good men among the scrubs a good schedule should be played. 67 68 THE FOOT HAUL SQUAl). More interest was shown by the boys this season, in football, than in any,previous one. In the past seasons we have had two squads to begin the work with, but after a week or so some of the boys never again appeared on the grounds for practice. They thought, that because some were so much heavier than they, or that some were a little faster, that they had no chance for the varsity, so they stayed away. These men were doing great harm both to themselves and to the team itself. A decidedly great change took place during the ’13 season. There were some twenty-four men who reported for practice at the opening of the season and everyone stayed with the work, with the idea that he was a better man than his opponent and that he would convince the coach of the fact. This made the work very enjoyable and interesting. I sincerely believe that the boys are now realizing the value of athletics to both mind and body. If each man will do his part and try to convince one more of the immediate value of athletics, this work which has thus far been so nobly advanced will continue with still more vigor and interest.

To get the members of the school deeply interested in the inter-class track meet three loving cups were offered as the first three prizes by three of our most prominent business men, a pair of boxing gloves as a fourth prize was given by another. With these in view the school as a whole was anxious for the day of the meet, which was April 18. With a large crowd to witness the events the Junior Class, or the present graduating class, carried away the victory with 65 points. The Sophomores were a close second with 5 4 points. Freshmen third -with 14 points, followed by the Seniors with ‘‘one” lonely chalk mark. The winners of the individual cups and boxing gloves were as follows: Rhone—20 points—loving cup, given by Chapin Vorbeck. P. Knight—12 points—loving cup, given by O. M. Elliott. Hughlett—12 points—loving cup, given by J. Wolf. Anderson—-10 points—boxing gloves, given by the Outing Shop—Craun, Sills, Stong, Chapman, each 10 points. THE COUNTY MEET. Every year the schools of Mesa County assemble for a track meet and oratory and debate contests. This meet is held at a different town each year. I ast year it was held at Fruita, and Grand Junction carried away first in the three contests. The first prize for the school making the most points in track is a handsome loving cup, which was given by Chapin Vorbeck. This cup will belong to the school winning it three years straight. We now have it and we are going to keep it by winning the next two county meets. THE COLOR AIK) SPRINGS STATE H. S. TRACK MEET. During the last few years we have been represented at the state meet at Colorado Springs, which is conducted under the auspices of Colorado College. The cream of the track squad are always entitled to go. Four men represented our school at the Springs last year. Bob Rhone came home with a handsome loving cup, signifying second place in the 4 4 0-yard dash. He won third the year before, and is going after first this year. Ergen Craun came in fourth in the half mile, but this year we hope to see him do better. This year the prospects look promising for a good relay team, a jumper, a weight man, and several good sprinters to represent G. J. H. S. at Colorado Springs and carry away more of the honors.

We cleared for the athletic association about $90. The girls did not show the interest and loyalty to the school and team that the 1912 team showed, consequently the team was not as much of a success as it might have been. I sincerely hope that next year every girl will turn out, not with the anticipation of being first, but to do her level best to help produce a winning team for her high school. There is no honor in being on the first team unless you are capable of playing a good level-headed game, but there is a satisfaction when you know that you turned out and helped the girls to be a success. Ruth Pierce was elected captain of next year’s team, she being one of our “star” players this season. Muriel Coles was chosen as business manager. On account of not being able to come out to practice she did not make the team this year, but there is no doubt but what she will be one of the “stars” next season. THE TEAM. Hazel White—Right Guard. Ruth Pierce—Left Guard. May Nelson—Running Center. Aline Drury—Standing Center. Gladys Birdsall—Left Forward. Bessie Miller,—Right Forward. Substitutes—Lillian Smith. Gladys Keifer, Avis Munson, Ion? Cope, Marion Fletcher. 75 THE 1914 BASKET BALE TEAM. CAPTAIN EDWIN JOHNSON. A great deal of interest was shown this year in basket ball outside of the school as well as in school. There were basket ball teams throughout the valley and three in town outside of the H. S. team. The Y. M. C. A. had two teams, and Hoel’s Business College had the third. A schedule was immediately arranged between these three teams and the High School, this, of course, putting a stop to the class basket ball. This schedule was a six-week schedule, and every team went into the work with lots of vigor and interest. The “Y. Cardinals were the best team of the four, winning every game which they played in the league. The other three teams were fairly well matched, all having a chance for second place up to the last games of the league: this, of course, made it very interesting. The H. S. finally won second only by winning their last game. Financially basket ball was not a paying proposition this year, this being due to the fact that there were three league games every week and from one to three games with outside teams also. Naturally with so many games every w'eek we could not expect paying crowds every night. With Johnson as captain, wre hope to have a first place team next season as only one or tw'o men wri!l be lost through graduation. THE TEAM. Center—Murray. Guards—Capt. Johnson, Schrader, Stevens, R.

Clasped in a close embrace were they, Heedless alike of time and space, Knowing of naught that could betray To prying eyes their hiding place. They cared not that the hour was late. And in the sky the moon hung low. Each in the other found a mate. (And can this life more bliss bestow?) But I discovered their retreat. And madly wrested them apart; Then, only, was my joy complete; And exultation filled my heart. For I had toiled with weary sighs. And torn my evening gown, alack— In search of those wee hooks and eyes. Just in the middle of the back. Under the sun there's not a thing new. Now we all of us know that is quite true.

Pondered he upon their learning, till his dizzy head grew sore, Envy filled it, nothing more. While he nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came, rap-rapping, For admission to his dreaming yearnings never felt before; Tired was he of bootless striving, while at knowledge ne’er arriving; Sighed not he to master physics, and it’s mysteries explore; Craved he for those social graces.

Hard he worked, till shorn and shaven, came he to the fair Lenore, Whom, with many flirt and flutter, to the party forth he bore, This one time, if nevermore. Now into the dance he whirled her; round and round the room he twirled her; Scarcely did his hasty footfalls seem to touch the polished floor; ’Twas his luckless lady’s toes that caught the tapping and the rapping, Ah! that dancing! like the prancing of the savage men of yore. Of the dark and savage warriors from the nation’s barbaric shore. This it was, and nothing more. Still no word the lady uttered, not an eyelash then she fluttered; But look of stern decorum on her countenance she wore, Presently, when home returning, near a street lamp softly burning. With the mien of injured lady stepped she to her father’s door. Quoth she, to the Junior turning, “You’ve the manners of a boar!” Only this and nothing more. Long he wailed with childish raving, cursing then his idle craving; Like a flash the truth came ringing, stinging to his bosom’s core; Though the silence was unbroken, ghastly, grim, the truth seemed spoken— That a Junior’s not a Senior; he’s a Junior, nothing more.

To perform on battlefields bloody and dire Feats that should waken the muse and the lyre. Not from the jungle this challenger came, Who has now climbed the ladder to glory and fame, But out of a High School squad he arose. And his stern career has known no repose; He has thrown his opponents and trampled his foes; His proud head is crowned with the laurel and rose. Though we are indifferent, sparing of favors. Our brave old Conqueror never wavers; He always is ready the scent to pursue, Never neglecting a thing he should do, Making no blunder he may live to rue, Sure his own courage will carry him through. Then what’s the matter with the Tiger? Let’s cheer him to the sky! For the races he’s run, And the honors he’s won, For our dear old G. J. High! FLOWERS When you think of flowers, think of THE GRAND FLORAL CO. They have them; flowers for all occasions. 112 Phone Randolph 470 202 Main Street EDUCATED PEOPLE ALL KNOW THAT The Gibson Lumber Mercantile Co. are the leading dealers in all kinds of Huihliiig Material We sell Lumber, Lime, Cement, Plaster, Beaver Board, Elaterite Rooting, Felt Roofing, Roof Coating, Building Paper, Mouldings, and Interior Finish Through four years now in our toilsome course, We have hollowed and cheered him until we were hoarse; Unafraid we have patted his tawny hide. With words of encouragement marched at his side. And onward to victory still he will ride; Undaunted he fights our leader, our guide. He ate up brave Delta and valiant Montrose; He battered their noses and tattered their clothes, And even that gallant old fighter, Salt Lake, Has shuddered to think of the wreckage he’d make, And then there’s poor Fruita; alas! what a shake He gave them, and oh! how their spirits still quake! And now must we leave him, this Tiger of ours? Shall other hands deck him with garlands of flowers? See how he stands there with fire in his eyes, Waiting, so eager to leap for the prize! Yes, we must leave him, break the fond ties; Proudly he goes on; new foes he defies. Then here’s a farewell to the Tiger! Goodbye, old comrade, goodbye! And a parting tear For our friend so dear— Farewell to the G. J. High! 113 I 114
