High school days are about over, and now is the time for you to decide whether you will be just a “drifter with no thought for the future, or whether you will secure yourself with a bank account. The larger part of money spent foolishly is spent because it is within too easy reach—your pocket. In the bank it is out of temptation’s way. Don’t think you are too young to start a bank account; your age is the right age to begin. We are always glad to see the young folks in this bank. The United States Bank and Trust Co. Summer Vacation GOOD OLD VACATION DAYS ARE HERE How will you spend these happy days? On a Fishing Trip? On an Auto Tour? or Hiking Around the Hills?

TRoTair The Home Store of Grand Junction Young Men and Young Women For Three Generations I AM YOUR SCHOOL Make of me what you will—1 shall reflect you as clearly as the mirror throws back the candle beam. If I am pleasing to the eye of the stranger within our gates: if 1 am such a sight as having seen me, he will remember me all his days as a thing of beauty and inspiration, the credit is yours. Ambition and opportunity call some of my sons and daughters to higher tasks and mighty privileges, to my greater honor and good repute in far places, but it is not chiefly these who are my strength. My strength is in those who remain loyal year after year, faithful to their work, and content with what 1 offer them and with what they can offer me. I am more than wood, brick, and stone, more even than flesh and blood—1 am the composite soul of all who enter my domain. I am your school. ■Winifred Lass MRS. EMMA ERWIN COOLEY Our friend and benefactor to whom we sincerely dedicate the Tiger of 1922 as a small token of our esteem and of our appreciation of her interest in Grand Junction High School. Mrs. Emma Erwin Cooley An Appreciation by a Friend ONE of the finest collections of natural history in the entire country has been presented by Mrs. Cooley to the school children of Grand Junction. This array of specimens and curios from many lands has already been placed in the room built by the Board of Education especially for a museum. Many of the birds and animals, so artistically mounted, are native to our own western country, but there are also wonderful spec imens of birds, butterflies and insects from the tropics and many other parts of the world. To nature lovers it is a collection extremely interesting, and its lasting benefits to the students of the present day and to those who follow after can hardly be estimated. Many persons in the community, appreciative of this valuable gift of Mrs. Cooley’s, will be interested in knowing something of her early life and the circumstances which led to the making of this collection. Mrs. Emma Erwin Cooley is the daughter of James Erwin, a Methodist minister whose memory is honored as one of the founders of the University of Syracuse, New York, by a memorial chapel on the grounds of that institution. When a child Mrs. Cooley was an invalid, the result of a severe case of scarlet fever. The greater part of her youth was spent on crutches: a fact which has made her deeply sympathetic toward all who are in any way afflicted. Owing to this misfortune of being a cripple, she was naturally barred from much of the school and outdoor life of other children: but, possessed of a keen and active mind, was largely educated in her father’s splendid library. Always a nature lover, she early in life began her collection. She gathered around her birds and animal pets of every description, the indulgence of a wise and loving mother allowing this domestic menagerie, which was often a hospital as well. All the maimed and helpless creatures of the neighborhood found with her a refuge and a home. Mrs. Cooley loves the sea, and the exquisite beauty of the corals and sea shells in the collection adds much to the attraction of the whole exhibit. Mrs. Cooley’s appreciation of music is keen and discriminating. Hers has been the privilege of hearing the finest orchestras of the great musical centers, and her immense collection of disc records has been selected with rare taste and artistic appreciation. Out of this vast store, which she has gathered, hundreds of records have been distributed among hospitals and other institutions, to entertain and cheer the less fortunate, who so much need the soothing balm of music. Hardly second to the pride and pleasure with which Mrs. Cooley regards this collection of natural hository, which has occ upied so much of her time and thought for many years of a busy life, is the deep intellectual joy she has always felt for her library. Besides many gifts to individual friends and many more to the pubic library, she included several hundred volumes of these beautiful books in her gift to the school. These books are the works of the best authors and represent the highest type of the bookmaker’s art. Much of ancient and modern literature are familiar friends to her, but the sweet and tender expressions of truth, inspiring and helpful, are her standards of beauty. Nothing coarse, however brilliantly expressed, appeals to her. Mrs. Cooley has lived in such close touch with her library that the volumes have been read and re-read many times, but never a crease or soiled finger mark of her own making can be found upon them. One practical lesson should be drawn from this library of perfectly preserved books, now that they have been turned over to us: Can students do less than hold them as a precious heritage and give them the care which is their due? Mrs. Cooley has a large fund of kindly humor and is remarkably quick to grasp the underlying thought of an author. It has been her lifelong habit, in all her reading, to methodically jot down the thoughts that especially appeal to her, and this vast collection of quotations, so gathered, has been embodied in a book called “Unfamiliar Quotations.” now in the hands of its publishers. Gems of thought, helpful and inspiring, cheerful philosophy and truths expressed in a new and forceful way are the themes chosen. Generosity and kindness are Mrs. Cooley’s distinguishing traits; she loves to give for the pure pleasure of giving and as an outlet to the enthusiastic sympathy she feels for every worthy object. During the great war her patriotic zeal in the different phases of women’s work was constant and untiring. No personal inconveniences ever prevented her using her voice and influence for the cause. No woman in the county gave more cheerfully and abundantly of her means and service. Simple human kindness is the outward manifestation of a noble character: the expression of right thought, conduct and religion. To be kind, to be unselfish, to be considerate of the rights and charitable toward the faults of others are the traits which make a grand personality. This beautiful and valuable gift has been accepted by the school in the spirit in which it is offered. The name of EMMA ERWIN COOLEY will always be held in grateful remembrance as the kindest benefactor the Grand Junction school has ever known.

Foreword HEREIN we have attempted to inscribe a lasting record of another year of worthy achie ements in the life of Grand Junction High School; and, as the members of the departing lass of 1922, who now enter broader fields of knowledge, have played no small part in these triumphs in their four years’ sojourn here, so this volume is chiefly designed to serve not only as a record of this year, but also as an epitome of their memories of high school days. The Bend in the Road YOU stand at the Bend in the Road of Life, Peering wistfully through the haze. Wond’ring what joy or grief, what peace or strife Will be your lot in future days. Silenced but for a moment is your song. Then all your joy comes back to you. For ’round the Bend you see a road along Which flowers bloom neath skies of blue. In dreams you see the goal which is your aim. And toward it leads the pictured road. Then you in dreams have fortune won, and fame; And, if you’ve felt Ambition’s goad. Success is yours, and all that Life can hold; The joy of having done your best Is yours: and the evening shadows fold You in a night of well-earned rest. As you dream of the bright days yet to be When you have passed beyond the Bend, The shadows that may fall you do not see. But joys with sorrows always blend; And Life's long road may some time be more steep. Sharper the thorns along the way, The pitfalls be more treacherous and deep. And skies of blue may change to gray. Round the Bend in the Road, failure, defeat. May he waiting to hide the sun And crush your hope of a life that’s complete With its battles well fought and won. But. whatever may come of joy or care In the long road that lies before. Choose well every step as you travel there Until the long journey is o’er. If for a moment men do not believe The things that you say or you do. Know in your heart that you do not deceive. And know in your heart that you’re true. Keep ever before you that blissful dream Of the good things that come with time. For ’tis that vision makes Life truly seem So beautiful, wondrous, sublime. And when you at last face the Sunset Glow And have known Life’s joys, and its load. Oh. still see that vision that long ago You saw at the Bend in the Road. —Frances H. Reed. Class Officers Karl Purcell------------------- President Mary Cox------------------ Vice President Helen Higgins---------Secretary-Treasurer Senior Class History [EPTEMBER. 191S. saw the list of students of G.

Modest and shy. had learned the arts of bluffing and of tutting classes, and had elected officers. No more did we feel so very unnecessary in the Senior assembly; no more did we blush when they greeted us with the familiar strains of “How Green They Are.” We, not wanting to be just like every other Freshman class, entertained the eighth grade at a C olonial party, which proved our merits as hosts. Thus, with algebra and Latin and other little incidentals, we completed our first year of High School. As Sophomores, we continued our excellent progress. Two of our Freshmen teachers, Miss Eckel and Miss Groom, recognized our abilities to such a degree that they could not bear the thought of parting with us, and so were made Sophomore teachers. Many were the hours we spent in proving things in geometry that anyone could see were so, and in translating pages of C'aesar. We supported the athletics, contributed to the O. B., gave numbers on assembly programs, had representatives in the Girls’ Mandolin Club, the High School Orchestra, the Minstrel and Operetta, and proved ourselves all-round good boosters. The grand finale which ended our second year in High School was the Sophomore Banquet, in every way a success. In 1920 we returned once more, and, as Juniors, added more laurels to our reputation. A good per cent of the football and basketball squads was chosen from our ranks, and the leading male characters in the Operetta. We chose class pins and twice entertained the Seniors—the first time at a barn dance and the second time at a farewell banquet. At last that high and mighty station has been acquired—we are Seniors. We no longer stand in awe of anyone; we give encouragement to the poor, despairing student of geometry and tell him: Wait until you try solid.” The talent of our class again comes to light when all but one of the leading characters for the Operetta are Seniors; our boys’ quartette is the best in High School, and two of the participants of the Western Slope Rhetorical Contest from G. J. H. S. are Seniors. We have | enetrated the deep, dark secrets of chemistry; have associated, dissociated and reassociated everything; have learned Chaucer’s “Prologue, Hamlet’s Soliloquy; outlined Long’s English Literature,’’ and are at last prepared to graduate—the best class that ever was or will be—the Class of ’22! Last Will and Testament of the Class of 22 CHE last will and testament of the Class of ’22, drawn up this 3tst day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-two, bequeaths the following on such conditions as are herein specified: 1.

Pretty to walk with, witty to talk with and pleasant to think on. dressing the same to Selma McQueen, and her personality to May McDonald. 8. The Senior Male Quartette leave their freak encores to a “four” capable of reproducing the same for one number for each assembly the coming year. 9. James Dodson leaves his “air” to Theodore Layton. 10. Herbert Haines wills his editorship and eye for business to Vestal Bell. 11. Helen DeGroot bequeaths her A-pluses in English to Rufus Hirons, provided he will sufficiently appreciate them. 12. David Sanders wills his “pomp” and “profile” to Fred Meserve. 13.

John Fox leaves the sly half of his name to Joe Carstensen. 18. Charlsie Lapham bequeaths her at- tempts at climbing the social ladder to Harriet Moulton with the advice: Don't fall! 19. Alex Campbell leaves his dignity, gracefulness and bashful ways to Ted Jones. 20. Helen Higgins wills her genius at “landing” the boys to Phfllys Ready, her methods for preparing for the dance to Esther Rigg, and her perfect profile to Jeanette Meyers. The Class of ’23 as a whole is made heir to the following: 1. The school property, including views of Grand Mesa and various church towers to be seen therefrom. 2. Monsieur Arms, who will probably by then be able to unlock the universe by means of the energy in a bit of chalk. 3. Miss Ela (tho we dream forever of outlines. the “Prologue” and the “Essay on Addison”), whom we have found to be the best of pals. 4. The curtain in the assembly, whose scenery will prove a diversion till the speaker arrives. 5. As the Seniors of '22 pass out in order, we leave to the Seniors of ’23, whom we hope will pass in order, our much beloved Prof. Hirons. Duly signed and witnessed by CLASS OF 1922. The Seniors in 1945 IN nineteen hundred and twenty-two, with flying colors our class came through. Eighty-one in all, with average high and looks to charm the public eye. The years have passed and left their mark, but nothing phases Henry Stark, who, after finishing Junction school, went to Africa riding a mule. There he digs in the hills for shining gems to furnish Sue with diadems. Ruby Blann’s Ike De Long’s better half, with the same old smile and hearty laugh she had in the days of 22, when she ditched a farmer for Ike (that's true), and in nineteen hundred and twenty-three she sailed with Ike for Afrikee. Virga Stout, the would-be vamp, on Greenwich Village has put her stamp. She’s the artist’s model of Allen Brown, who thru past cubist paintings has won renown. His lovely wife, nee Katherine Green, whose pictures you’ve likely seen on the screen, is a movie star who’s won a name as great as Talmadge and others of fame.

Practopedics,—now please don’t snort. Slip’s wife was charming Mary Cox; she stays at home and darns the sox. Snooze’s wife is yet to be, altho he’s adopted children three. Polly, who played and all too well, played on the heart strings of Karl Purcell, a Barney Oldfield in his high school days, who now seeks the straighter and narrower ways. Kenneth Xeish and Rollin Shanks joined the boys in the cowpunchin' ranks. Near Fruita town these heroes dwell, spend their time hating women and working like ’ell. The cause of Shanks' discomfiture was; the white lights held a great lure for Helen Higgins, who eloped one day with John Fox, who became so gay as to give dancing lessons to old and young; now his praises all over the world are sung. Kenneth Tolley still carries his gold-headed cane when calling in Aspen in sunshine or rain. Tupper and Ridley forsook Junior girls and sailed off to Greenland on a voyage for pearls. Ruth Hoel and Eva Larson bought them a boat, and for Greenland’s icy mountains they started to float. On the snowy trail they caught their game and an Eskimo preacher (hanged each girl’s name. Happily they dwell in a reindeer tent and all their time in fishing is spent. We all remember Reggie Smith, whose wonderful acting is not a myth. He eloped with the Titian-haired beauty of the Junior class and now their days in acting they pass. Reg frolics upon the speaking stage and his love-making with ladies is quite the rage. Edward McCormick, the lazy dude, whose manners you know were never rude, is an opera star, and his cowboy wails, that he “uster” wail on the Orchard Mesa trails. (harmed Mary By ram, and now they are wed and are still fond of each other, tis said. Wendell Stephens readied the height of his ambition and, without fear of being sent to perdition, is calling out the stations on an Atlantic liner, and his voice every day becomes finer and finer. Edith Fuller, taking a trip to the far. far east, saw Wendell feeling compressed as Fleischmann’s yeast: so she vamped him and they were wedded in Rome, but traveled to Albania and there is their home. Harold House married Leona Diehl, and remarked, “For the South Seas let us steal.” House and his bride, at the ebb of the tide, were stranded on a cannibal isle. They were dined, they were wined in the best heathen style; so they became preachers, the best in the lot, and teach religion to the poor Hottentot. Potter and Campbell formed a bachelors’ club with no women allowed—aye. there is the rub; for Eveyln Roberts and Helen De Groot. feeling quite gay, walked in on those bachelors and lured them away. Now these four own the ’46 Scandal Show; Anna Barry and Gladys Huckstep dance there, you know. Ted Porter said to Amy Ashley, “You must marry me!” Oh. no, Ted, she cried; “that can never be, for Henry Bechtold’s my husband in far Canadee, and another in the States is too many for me.” David Sanders went to Borneo, land of extreme fold. There he and Willie Ell on are digging up gold. If they ever come back, it will l:e in the spring, to see Elsie Lankford vamping and hear Ruth Chee-dle sing. Elizabeth Marshall is a staid old maid, and a staid old maid she’s always stayed: for, after seeking a perfect man, she decided all were like Dapper Dan. Margaret Whitney changed her name to Vannice and dwells in China in a field of rice. Her husband is a mandarin and they have a jinrickshaw to ride in. Jim Dodson became the sheik of Arabv, and after much courting won Irene Beardsley. They dwell in a burg of the sandy Sahara, where Rita and Charlotte weave rugs known as Bokhara.

Her hair is no more sunny than her smile. Bower became a daring circus rider and hooked up with, an acrobat who spied her. Ruth Coffman and Pauline Brown fought a fearful duel over a French count, who was only a fool. Then they made up their quarrel and bought them a house, where they live with their parrot, their dog, ,-cat and mouse. Harold Burgess turned into a civil engineer. His spouse was a Sophomore and to her he’s very dear. Ray Sutton organized an orchestra wherein he plays the drums. Alwilda Calloway does charity work for the children in the slums. Herbert Haines was the editor of the New York Daily Sun, but for candidate for President he decided to run. The Democrats elected him and he’s a married guy. Alice Peck cares for him; so, ladies, you needn’t apply. Honey Meek married a baseball fan. He used to be a Freshman, but now he’s some man. Verna and Eula are famous long since. They’ve had a thrilling experience. To make basketball baskets they sure know how; their baskets are market baskets now. Two handsome lads from White-water town they married and decided to settle down. Forrest Leffingweil as a banker you see. (His complexion is still what it used to be!) Frances Reed is a happy wife; she found a man to run her life. Lawrencfe Young is married, too. He got up nerve, at last, to woo. Amy and Orville are having a good time. They moved to California’s sunny clime. On Soldier Summit Charlsie Lapham dwells. Her husband is searching for artesian wells. Our friends, Anna Ryan and Martha Steele, disport in comedies of only one reel; if you see them, they’ll surely make you smile. Both ladies have been widow's for quite a long while. Two sailors wooed Ruth Fairley and Harriet Northrup. They used to be piratesses, but now' they’ve setled down. Ruth Hartzler is a milliner, furnishing hats to the town. I heard Mattie Jenkins had finally said she’d consent at last to wed little Ed. For Hazel’s fame we have no fears; she’s been a lawyer for ten long years. Madge Fritch is now' a minister’s wife; Merle Oleson is in Russia, that land of strife. Ronald Lewis leads Cox’s army, tooting a fife. Raymond Workman still leads a simple life. As you see, all the Seniors had famous careers As befit personages of more august years; But each was an exception, some in their wit, What others lacked in wit they made up In grit, And tho they are gone, we’ll not forget the class; It’s the Seniors we’ll toast; let’s fill up the glass: “To the class that’s dear to me and you I toast the Class of ’22. By chemistry, by Cicero, By all the Spanish I don’t know; By pow'der puff, by looking glass; By all the hours I’ve slept in class; By all the movies I have seen; I swear I’ll keep your memory green. Here’s to the class that’s dear to me, Here’s to the old days so carefree, Here’s to the class that’s dear to you, The Senior Class of ’22.” —Ruth Rigg. A Trip to Hades HT the age of 107, the Angel of Death entered my home and prepared me for a journey. She said, “I came to Callaway from earth those souls who have spent their allotted time here.” Coming from Hades, I thought she could tell me of my departed Charlnfe l.ifhaa Glee Club (1, 2. 3. 4) Operetta (3, 4) Orchestra (4) Class Play (4).

She is rather tall and slender, with a heart most tender. friends, and so I asked her of different ones who had ‘‘shuffled off this mortal coil,” I thought of the old classmates of ’22, and asked her how they all were. She told me that I had lived to be the oldest member of my class and that they were all down in Hades and were waiting for Latcheses to cut the thread of my life, so that we might have a reunion. She said that she would take me to where my old classmates were, and I was so glad to have the opportunity of seeing them all again that I hurried very fast to ■get ready, and we soon set out. We arrived at the entrance to Hades early in the afternoon and were met at the gate, not by the fierce Cerebrus, but by a well dressed Paige, who took us over to the Marshall of the underworld and then went back to her post. Everything was different from the picture I had of Hades which I had construed in my imagination from the descriptions in Virgil and in my Mythology; but, when I stopped to think that both Edison and Burbank had died and gone to Hades, I realized that it was only natural for them to remodel it and install electricity instead of the old fireworks. The Marshall was in his House, where he had prepared a banquet for myself and a few other members of my class who were at leisure. Dod’s son Jim and Larson were there, and they had a little Steele hammer with which they were tacking up a picture of ex-President Ronald Lewis. In a few moments dinner was served, and it was certainly a lovely dinner: there were Porter House steaks. Lap ham, Dill pickles, Parker House rolls, Ryan’ Brown bread, Campbells soup and a good Diehf of strawBarrys. In the middle of the meal, someone came and said that Warren Potter had returned from a hunting trip and was out in front. Every one ran out to see him. He had been successful, and had on the lawn a Brown Fox, quite Stout and sly, but looking rather Meek. It was tied with a good Diehl of rope around the Shanks. I heard a little twitter above, and, looking up. I saw a little Martin sitting in the tree above my head. David Sanders, the minister. was called away just then on some business. and I was conducted to a corner of Hades reserved for the w'orst sinners. Here I saw Ed McCormick working over a wire. I asked what he was doing and was informed that he was Old Nick’s head electrician during the day and was the orator of Hades by night, when great crowds assembled to hear him on the subject of China. Frances Reed andEvelyn Roberts came along and told me that they were going to the Welles for some water, and asked me to go along. I told them I would, and joined them. I soon came to what seemed to me to be a lovely Welle, but they just scoffed and said that that was only a Hoel in the ground. They then told me that in the Elysian fields they had water that was unequaled in the regions above. They said that their principal source wm I effing well, but that there were other very good Welles, too. They left me at the well and went to By-ram which Evadne Carson was offering at a very low price. As I stood looking around. I saw Margaret Whitney coming toward me, and I saw that she must have died young, for she didn’t look a day older than she did when she was a Senior, and her hair was beautifully waved. I asked her if they made good Marcell waves in Hades, and she said: “Oh, yes; but they don’t call them Marcells down here; they call them Purcells, in honor of our illustrious cartoonist. I was very much surprised, but did not have time to say anything, for just then I saw Henry Bechtold and William Elbon, trying to get two Cox to fight.

They said that they had just drank a gallon of “Hootch” that Charlotte Bergner had made for them from a Peck of Raisins that Harold Burgess had raised in California and sent down by Hazel Edington. 1 found them very uninteresting; so I went over to a lovely garden which 1 had seen from a distant e. Ruth Coffman. Kenneth Tolley, Amy Ashley and Ruby Blann were planting sweet peas, and I asked them where I could find the other members of the class. They told me that Glen was in the Tartaric regions doing everlasting penance for fitting people with shoes that did not fit them. I asked them what his punishment was, and they said that there was a long road; that he had to begin at one end and Slip and Fall to the other end thirty times a day and ten seconds off to study Spanish. They said that 1 would find Mattie Jenkins somewhere close to the little Martin that I had seen in the early part of the afternoon, and that Herbert Haines was in his office preparing the final issue of the “Devil’s Blackmail,” a publication put out by the Seniors of the match-making department, and that, as his assistants, I should find Rita Brandon and Gladys Huckstep. I found a shop on the way to the newspaper office and it was being run by Wendell Ridley. Strange to say, his punishment for flirting in the upper world was that he must speak and conduct himself like a Jew; so, when 1 went up to him, he said: “I sella evreyting. You want von book to Read? Or maybes you wish a De Long and Lank Ford for which to take Irene Beardsley or Sue Saunders a ride. I would paint them Green for you also yet.” And, as 1 turned to go, he called me back. “Oh and Yes, you vill find some good-looking Jaynes clown here; they are bether-looking even tan de ones in the upper woorld.” As 1 went out I met the Barbour, and he asked me if I wanted a hair cut; he said that the women in Hades all wore their hair Bobbed. I told him “No,” and went over to a place where I saw a beautiful Bower of Roses, under which sat Helen Higgins and Ray Sutton and Evelyn Roberts and Henry Stark. 1 did not wish to disturb them; so I passed quietly on to where I saw a Workman talking to Kenneth Neish, who 1 had been told was in c harge of the Devil’s largest coal mine. They were talking about the bank failure, and 1 stayed to learn the facts. It seemed that Harvey Tupper and Ruth Chee-dle had started a bank, but that they argued so much that they lost their trade, and, finally, after the Woman’s Vigilance Committee had reported them thru their able assistants, Madge Fritze and Merle Olson, they had had a run on the bank and it had failed. I almost wept as I heard the sad news; but Wendell Ridley came along Ful-ler Hartzel-ers’ Eskimo Pop, and he cut such capers that I soon felt quite gay again, and, as I saw him mistaking Green onions for Daisies, I fairly doubled up with laughter. The Angel of Death came along then and told me that a committee, headed by Margaret Burroughs, had voted that I be doomed to outline six English books for the writing of the Senior Short Story, and I was led away to my doom. —Alwilda Callaway.

The Orange and Black; Its Future OHE Orange and Black has again enjoyed a prosperous year, for which many thanks are due the student body, the business men who gave their support, and our other friends. Several changes and innovations were introduced into the paper this year, chief of which was the return to the magazine size but retaining the newspaper style as much as possible, and the absence of advertising with the exception of one ad at the 'bottom of the front page, which carried the names of those business men supporting the O. and B. The outlook for future years at present includes a printing establishment—a feature which all progressive high schools are installing and which prove to be a success in all phases. In some small communities the high school paper also serves as the community newspaper. Many high schools publish weekly papers; others, semi-weekly, and a few, daily papers. The natural and logical step for the Orange and Black would he from the monthly to the semi-monthly edition; thence, in time, to the weekly publication. One notable feature evident in a good many school publications, which we have received, is a tendency toward the newspaper style and away from the “joke-book” idea. Instead of a vast conglomeration of second-hand jokes, and a faint scattering of school notes and athletics, the school paper is beginning to-fulfill the true functions for which it is intended, namely: the publishing of news of interest to the high school, providing a medium for the exercise of literary and journalistic talent and endeavor, and to promote-school spirit by keeping the students interested in their school. At the State High School Press Conference,, held last March at the University of Colorado,, the Orange and Black was represented by two delegates. A state press association was formed and is now the Colorado Division of the Central Interscholastie Press Association, an organization composed of over four hundred high school publications in the United States. We were admitted to membership in both organizations. With this honor as an incentive and with the constructive criticism and aid furnished by the C. I. P. A., the Orange and Black has an enviable future before it, and, providing that it has the whole-hearted support of the student body and an energetic, tireless staff, it can easily become of the first rank among high school publications. Essentials of Manliness Y ERBERT Spencer, the great scientist, JL| once remarked; “To play billiards well is the mark of a gentleman, but to play billiards too well is the mark of a misspent life.” How true such a statement is, and yet a great many people go on and on spending their time and energy altogether too liberally in popular sports and other diversions.

With this introduction, I would like to write briefly concerning some of the essentials of manliness, which is a so intended to include womanliness. One of the essentials of manliness is an abundant vocabulary sufficient to express one's views clearly, concisely, c-leanly. convincingly. Our democracy demands of alt its citizens that they should be facile in public speaking. In the home, in school, in the church, in our social life, in common conversation, in business life, in community building and in ail affairs of staJte it is highly important that all who desire to contribute anything to the group to w'hich they belong or who desire to become citizens who are to be reckoned with in all civic and social questions must prepare themselves so that they can use the English language effectively. Tidiness in speech, precision in choice of words, and power in speaking are the qualities that cannot be learned in a day. To be able to speak our native language correctly, fluently and elegantly means that we must devote a good many years to earnest study and faithful practice of the art. Many evils -that harm young people are due to incapacity for interesting conversation and lack of taste for reading and music and worthy uses of leisure, which should be a special object of education at home and in school. Swearing and slang both indicate poverty of language. It is partly because of poverty of words that there is too much spooning and skipping feet and “cheek to cheek social fellowship. Lips that • an not talk do too much kissing: and holding hands becomes necessary when one cannot hold a friend by conversation. Men a.nd women go to brutal prize fights and the like because they have not learned the finer boxing and fern ing of repartee. Time is wasted at sentimental movies because folks do not know the art of good talking. There is nothing more delightful to real i eople than good talk, if they have intelligence and are capable of it. Another essential of maniness and womanliness is courteous independence. The manly man does not say “yes, yes to everything heard or proposed, like the me. too of Po-lonius. in Shakespeare, •who agreed with him that a ertaln cloud looked like a camel,” and then changed his mind when Polonius, on further examination, opined, It looks more like a weasel, Me Too said, “I think it looks like a weasel.” The manly boy or man does not follow the crowd, but oftener leads it: or, if not. dares walk alone, in wiiat be believes to be right. Captain Richmond P. Hobson laid the foundations of his military and moral leadership In the Naval Academy when he endured a boycott of his classmates because he stood for a clean life. Thayer's “Life of Roosevelt tells of the way in which Theodore Roosevelt met the peculiar temptations of university life. He went to college with the fruit of the quiet but firm teaching of his parents, “with a body of rational moral principles which he made no parade of, but obeyed instinctively.” The result was that he was never betrayed into folly. He was never fooled into mistaking novelty for truth or libertinism for manliness. Purity is essential to manly strength, as Tennyson hints in that line about the greatest of King Arthur’s knight. Sir Galahad: My strength is as the strength of ten Because my heart is pure.” A third essential of manliness is up-to-dateness in important knowledge. A man in the most up-to-date clothes would advertise Ki-nm-lh Tolly Minstrel Show (2, 4) Operetta 1, 2. 3, 4) Junior Rotary (4). Vanity, vanity, what a ourse thou art to humanity.

How wondrous wise he’d be. himself a boor, if, in a social party, he showed that he had no knowledge of important current events and great issues of the hour. The citizen otf today must be familiar with the new scientific discoveries. He must also bb familiar with the great moral and social problems that society is trying to solve. The ignorant. like the fanatical, are a very great hindrance when it comes to working out a correct solution for the problems of human life. Sound knowledge helps us to answer the many perplexing questions that arise in the daily run of affairs. Newton’s laws of motion were accepted by most thinking people long ago because these laws apparently answer every question concerning motion which the expert physicist can ask. In like manner, the Copernican theory was accepted because it answers the questions of the astronomer; Mendel’s law w'as also accepted because it demonstrates hereditary influences, and the Evolutionary theory became the commonly accepted theory because it seems to answer every question that is asked by the geologist, the biologist and the anthropologist. For centuries men did not know who had shot the arrows that have killed most of the millions who have died. Not until a few' years ago was bacteriology able to point out the tiny enemies that prey upon human life so ruthlessly. Now, if our knowledge is sound, wfe know the results of indulgence in tobacco, alcohol and other poisonous drugs, and we can also fortify ourselves against the attacks of germs, parasites and microbes that have been firing their poisoned arrows into man’s body ever since men have iived in the world. All the world’s a stage, says Shakespeare, and all the men and women are merely players. A lot of them arc very poor players. Kin Hubbard-, the celebrated Indiana humorist, was once assigned to cover a performance of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.’ He reported the play thus: Thf dogs was good, but they had poor support. True manliness helps a man to play his part well, at least so well that a comparison with dogfc would be unfavorable, i a:ways like the following vow: I am hut one, but I ain one. I c-acnot do everything, but I can do something, and what I can do and ought to do, by the help of God I will do. R. E. TOPE. Superintendent of Schools. A Vision I nHIS, 0 reader, is but a wild, romantic dream, the childish w-amderings of a much over-worked imagination, the most impossible fiction ever written, and the weirdest outpouring of a visionary mind yet recorded. So it is only fair to warn you. if you read further, that what is about to l e written will never be a reality, as you w-;il soon discover for yourself. Read it, then, for what it is and seek not for a moral, for there is none. Our story takes place about the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirty-seven. The scene is laid in Grand Junction, which is now a prosperous city of about twenty or more thousand. The tiTst chapter, if so we may call it. takes plate at thv old high school, where we yent, to s hool in nineteen hundred nd twenty-two. It is much the same in appearance. extept that a new wing has been added. A greater change than this,' however, has taken place. Here we find only the eighth and ninth grades. It is now known as the Junior High. “Where,” we ask. “are the Sophs, the Juniors, the Seniors?” We ask, and—behold! Yonder, where once was only a vacant block known as the Presbyterian grounds, there, in the impressive majesty of its three stories, stands the new G. J. H. S. In chapter two we wander through wide hallways adorned by choice selections of art and trophies of athletic and intellectual skill, and where respectable likenesses of departed classes smile a formal welcome; we are justly surprised to find individual lockers where each student keeps his or her belongings under lock and key; study rooms and class rooms all busy with industrious students (every teacher’s vision). The wonderful Cooley Museum and Library occupy our attention for hours. The greatest surprise comes when we see the fine auditorium with enough opera chairs to seat two thousand or more. An orchestra of fifty pieces is practicing in the pit. The stage is large and fitted with the best of scenery and a curtain that certainly surpasses the one we were used to gaze upon. Several dressing rooms adjoin the stage. Then a trip through the manual training shops and the agriculture department, which have grown to astounding size and are as modern as possible; the print shop where the weekly Orange and Black is published, besides all the printing work of the high school. The Orange and Black and Boosters’ Club both have well furnished offices. We are greatly perplexed, however, not to find a gymnasium. Professor Hirons, to whom we explain our predicament of mind, smiles mysteriously and forthwith furnishes us with a guide. We follow this Senior, for such he happens to be, with a feeling of anticipation. Nor are we disappointed, for in the third chapter we are confronted by a handsome gate upon the arch of which is inscribed the words: “Addleman Memorial Field. Upon enquiry of our guide we learn that the field stands where formerly was that large tract of land adjoining Lincoln Park on the south. Here we find the most modern equipped gymnasium that any athlete could desire. The athletic field proper is found in the big concrete “bowl” or circular “grandstand surrounding the football and baseball field and the quarter-mile track. This, as you were warned, is but a fantastic vision, the product of a disordered mind, placed here merely for the purpose of filling space; so waste no serious thought upon it. Yet, if dreams were only to come true, what a wonderful reality this one would be. A Course in Agriculture ' T T has come to the time when a man engaged in 1 the farming industry has to compete with more of the educated class of people and with men who have made a go of it in the past. To do this it is necessary that he should know how to get the most out of a crop or of live stock, which meet the requirements of the market; that he should know when to plant a crop or fit his live stock so he can get the very most out of it. If a disease should break out, he should know just what to do and how to do it, or what to do to his seeds or live stock to keep them from getting the disease. Smith-Hughes have worked out a course to their utmost ability so the students taking this course could get the necessary work in order to cover the points needed and still have It completed. We have in our high school one of the finest and best equipped courses on the Western Sloi e. This is a great help in the laboratory work, making it possible for the students to make the necessary tests and analysis accurately. The work in this high school is growing more complete every year and the teachers are learning the points which make it easier for the students. Cartoons by Giff The drawings from which the “cut” on the cover and the Senior pin were made are the work of Gifford Fyor-myer, a former student of G. J. H. S. Required. Education HE schools of America have one very important duty to perform aside from educating the students in the use of their brains. That duty is the training of the students into good American citizens. Without including the moral principle, a fair definition of such a citizen would be: A citizen who has a clear conception at least of the fundamentals, and a proper respect for the laws of his or her municipality, county, state and of the United States. The American people, as a whole, are seemingly indifferent to the law excepting when they feel its hand, and seem to care little about breaking the minor laws until they are affected by them in some way. Every citizen of erica, man and woman, should know and understand, as thoroughly as possible, the laws of the municipality, county, state and the nation in which be or she lives. Every school should offer a complete course in citizenship—a course that would not only acquaint the students with the fundamentals, processes and scope of law, but teach them a proper respect for it. Practically all high schools, including ours, carry in their curriculum various required sciences, mathematics and languages, and which cover a period of several years’ work, while civics or civil government is usually offered or required for one year. Now, how much good and just how effective will that one-year course be? It would be far better to place a science, mathematic or language on the elective list and substitute a required courso in civil government, and a four-year course, more advanced each year, would not he in any way out of place. Business Men Give Honors For Rhetoricals OUE to the great activity in rhetoricals and as a further incentive, several prominent business men of Grand Junction established annual medals for the several events and one presented a large silver loving cup to the championship team. The annual medals established were the C. E. Adams medal for Original Oration, the A. C. Parsons medal for Learned Oration, the Biggs-Kurtz medal for Argument, the A. M. Schmidt medal for Dramatic Reading and the Robert Rhone medal for Humorous Reading. The cup was presented by Mr. Roy Chapman. Seniors Win Pepometer Contest ITH a total number of 6913 points, the Seniors won first place in the Pepometer, or school spirit, contest instituted last September by the Boosters’ Club. Their nearest rivals, the Juniors, amassed 5379 points, while the Freshmen gained third place with a small majority of about 800 points over the Sophomores. The official results: 12 11 10 9 8 Scholarship - . 5262 3786 2432 3755 657 Athletics . 440 480 255 150 2S Assemblys . 385 160 225 50 10 Contests . 826 753 340 157 169 Class Rush 0 200 100 0 0 6913 5379 3352 4112 864 This does not include the points made at the Western Slope Rhetorical and Track meet. These, however, will not make any great material difference in the results as they are given above. PUBLIC SPEAKING RECITAL. On the evening of May 26 the Public, Speaking class held their annual recital. Colloquial readings and a play, “Neighbors. by Zona Gale, were given by the various members of the class. Orchestra CHE Orchestra this past year was composed of ten members with a fair variety of instruments. They were enthusiastically received upon their too few appearances in public. Besides various assembly periods, they appeared at and contributed much to the success of the Minstrel Show, the Operetta, “In the Garden of the Shah,” “A Pair of Sixes,” “The Girl From Out Yonder” and the Junior-Senior. They will also appear at the Senior Class Play, “Merely Mary Ann.” June 6. The personnel consisted of Kathryn Welles, pianist; Edward Martin, cornet: Edward Whalley, Leona Rector, Charlsie Lapham and Arnold Porter, violins: Ted Porter, flute: E. Wallace Mast, clarinet: Raymond Workman, saxophone, and Ray Sutton, drums. Miss Harriet Moulton, instructor of music in the city schools for the past several years, was the director. Rhetorical Club J vHIS club was organized January 20 of this year for the two-fold purpose of stimulating more interest and competition in rhetoricals and to send a winning team to the annual Western Slope Rhetorical contest. In both aims the club was highly successful, as is testified by the three-year championship rhetorical cup now in our possession, the number of contestants in the preliminaries and the great interest taken, especially by the business men, several of whom established annual medals for the various events and one who gave a handsome loving cup to the championship rhetorical team. The officers for this year were Reginald Smith, president, Selma McQueen, secretary, and Miss Edra Walter, coach. The entrants in the events and the subjects covered this year at the preliminaries were: LEARNED ORATION. Eugene Mast—“Spartacus to the Gladiators.” Martin Heidgen—“Spartacus to the Romans.” John Morrison—“Flag Day Oration,” by Franklin K. Lane. Reginald Smith—“The Plea for Cuba.” by Senator John M. Thurston. ORIGINAL ORATION. Edward McCormick—“China’s Big Brother.” John Wolf—“The Great Enigma.” Dalton Trumbo—“Service.” Clarice Chalmers—“Duties of a High School Student.” DRAMATIC.

Harvey Tup per.......President Fred Hinton_____Vice President Vivian Crawford______Secretary W. G .Hirons_________Treasurer ORGANIZED May 5, 1919, to promote school spirit and provide a means whereby students may take part in the control of student activities, the Boosters Club has rapidly become the biggest factor in the life and control of student activities in Grand Junction High School and has more than justified the three active years of its existence. The organization easily demonstrated its value in the first year of service under John Cottrell, president, Beth Derrybeirry, secretary, and W. G. Hirons. treasurer. Athletic finances, formerly rather uncertain, became more stable. The annual Piggleteria was instituted as a means of furnishing extra funds to aid in Boosters Club work and was an immediate success. For the second year. E. Wallace Mast was installed aa president, with Alex Campbell as vice president, Elsie Lankford, secretary, and W. G. Hirons, treasurer. This year. 1920. witnessed a gradual enlargement of the field of the club’s activities and an increase in financial returns and expenditures, over $2,000 being earned and wisely expended, with a small surplus left over in the treasury. The Pepometer or point contest, for the stimulation of school spirit, introduced and adopted, was the outstanding feature of the year’s activities. The scone of the club’s activities is constantly growing larger and includes every phase of student activities in the high school. Tts chief value is in the efficient handling of the student finances, which are each yeaT growing larger. The athletic teams are supplied with the best of equipment: visiting teams are royally entertained: banquets are given each G. .1. H. S. team at the close of the season: rhetoricals are encouraged; a $200 Balopticon (a combination slide and picture machine) was purchased and has Proved to be of inestimable value in the clarses where used; the Pepometer was carried out to a successful close; the Piggletteria was a bigger success than ever: the membership includes practically every student in hicdi school—these arc only a few of the many triumphs of the Boosters Club this third year of its activity. and which foretell the big future before it and G.

The deficit in the Senior Class fund is apparent only as the class had- to its credit the proceeds of the class play, which was included in the balance on hand at beginning of the school year. Out of the general fund there was pure hased a Balopticon machine, costing about $210, which has been placed In the school for general use. The value of football, baseball and track equipment bought during the year and now on hand is conservatively worth $250. The foregoing summary is taken from the books showf-ing detailed statements of all reecipts and expenditures. W. G. HI RONS, Treasurer. The Junior Rotary Club Fred Hinton........... President Richard Albright___Vice President James I a timer.. Secretary-Treasurer Henry Weber..............Advisor CWO years ago several boys of the G. J. H. S. attended a boys’ conference at Delta. From this conference w as born the idea of the Junior Rotary Club. F rom a group of eight or ten boys it now has a membership of thirty. The purpose of the club, as expressed in the preamble of the constiution, is to serve our high school in a worthy manner and by worthy means, to aid in keeping our athletics clean, our school life worth while, to f06ter high ideals, preserve worthy traditions and co-operate in every progress and betterment of our high school. The true Junior Rotarian is defined as one who responds willingly when assigned a task, no matter how difficult it may be. He neither shirks nor evades his duty, but does it to the I'est of his ability. The motto of the club is: “He profits most who serves best.” The membership is composed of the various class and student officers, the captains of the respective teams and other representatives from the four upper classes of the high school. The meetings are held each Tuesday noon at a luncheon in the Y. M. C. A. banquet room. In two years’ time the club has accomplished much and plans to accomplish much more in future years. l ast year a point system, designed to promote friendly class rivalry and thereby create school spirit, was worked out and submitted to the Roosters Club, and was subsequently adopted and named “Pepometer.” Among the more notable achievement of this year were the purchase of a dozen large athletic blankets, the presentation of ribbons to winners in the Western Slope Rhetorical, Track and Field meet, and the purchase of sweaters for the Tigresses, Western Slope basketball champions. For the purchase of the blankets and sweaters, two plays—“A Pair of Sixes” and The Girl From Out Yonder”—were given. The ribbons were presented to the individual winners of first, second and third at the Western Slope Rhetorical, Track and Field meet, where only medals for first place are given by the association. The club has made application to the Rotary International for permission to use the name, “Junior Rotary,” so that a copyright may be secured on the name, constitution and emblem, and allow the incorporation of the club as a national organization. This is being done in anticipation of the growth of the club and its institution in other schools, several of whom have expressed a desire to organize Junior Rotary clubs. THE JUNIOR ROTARIANS.

They sit with open book, and now and then, tor appearance’s sake, turn a leaf and go on dreaming. But, behold! there sits a person whose youthful brow bears lines of deepest worry. His feverish eyes scans page after page, or his hoarse whisper implores his neighbor’s quick and timely aid—verily he is the one who prepares for an exam. Over there sit two girls who seem to verify the description of their sex, “How them wimin folks do gab; their tongues is fastened in the middle and they wags at both ends.” Unfortunately to this twain, they are sep rted and one or another is sent into a vast extent of vacant seats to do penance; from which lonely region she gazes longingly at the familiar seat with its loquacious memories, until she becomes sleepy and bored by the very stillness of her retreat. Here and there sit individuals whose attitudes bespeak purposeful concentration. Consider them: their ranks are thinning, their numbers decreasing—they, the ones who study. A study period has its romances, too. There sit two lovelorn individuals, w'hose glances only too plainly bespeak their blissful condition. There sit tw’o unhappy creatures who have “fell out.” There sit two more people who stealthily endeavor to correspond beneath the-firm and purposeful gaze of the teacher. Did you ever notice how many people drop things,, walk around, laugh, sneeze, borrow everything from a pencil to a pin, or blow their respective noses? When the end of the study period comes, every one flings himself from his seat to plunge away, even before the hand of the teacher can reach the bell. r CLASS OP 23.

There’s no such thing! I. Sing, O my heart, and sing a strain Of melancholy sweetness, Of scentless violets in the rain And time’s sad fleetness. Sing how my love has gone away To stay for ever and a day. My heart is broken now, they say. H. Sing, O my heart, and sing a song Of love forever; Sing how a parting, though for long. Is absence never; Sing how that love, if it be true. Can separate never be for twro Who love and trust as 1 and you. HI. Sing, O my heart, and send above A chord of praise For mortals’ dearest blessing—love— Through all our day. All praise to him who took a flower, Wrought love from it in one short hour. Resistless, blameless, matchless power! IV. Sing, O my heart, a repetition old, But new again to ring, Tnat loses lure where days grow cold, But freshens with the spring. A distance cannot keep apart, Though peace may come or war may start, Two lovers who are joined in heart! If I keep this up for a w’hile, I’ll have old Wordsworth beat a mile. Go back, old Muse, and sit upon the shelf. Is love a fact? I’ve half convinced myself. —Syllableswortb. SOPHOMORE BANQUET. The Sophomore banquet will be held Commencement week at the La Court hotel.

Review of the Year CHE year 1921-22 has been a most unusual one in athletics. Three Western Slope c hampionships were in our grasp, but were lost to our ancient enemy, Gunnison. On the other hand, however, we have one slope title and the possibility of another. The close of the football season saw the Timers in second place with only one defeat registered against them and that by the champions. With only one back-Held and four line positions vacated by graduation, the season of 1922 should see the Tigers as Western Slope champions. The basketball season ended with the Tigresses safely entrenched as West Slope champions and claimants for the state title. The Tigers, after winning the Grand Valley Conference title, finished in third place at the Western Slope tournament. Track season had the best outlook in many years, and, although not living entirely up to expectations, was one of the most brilliant in the history of the school. While only second place was won at the West Slope meet and seventh place in the All-Western meet at Boulder, the Tigers have reason to be proud of their 1922 track record. In baseball, the least in the limelight of any athletic this year, the championship appears to be ours, as the Tigers have lost only one game so far. I X DEA t STUDIO Jones (Manager). House. Whalley.

The Tigresses again repeated; their annual performance of winning the Western Slope Girls’ Basketball title and again lost the chance of winning the state championship. After negotiations had been entered into and arrangements practically made for a game here between Littleton, Eastern Slope champions, and the Tigresses, the former were unable to make the trip on account of parental objections. For some unknown reason (possibly the same as that of Littleton) the Tigresses were unable to journey to Littleton and decide the title. This leaves both Littleton and Grand Junction as claimants to the championship of Colorado. RECORD OF GAMES.

Western Slope Meet CHE Western Slope Track meet, held at Montrose May 4, 5 and 6. was, perhaps, the best meet of its kind yet held on the slope. Competition was especially keen this year and the results were very close, while seven records were broken, four of them by Grand Junction. The Tigers were defeated for first place by only 2 Vi points, but won six firsts to Gunnison's five, besides defeating the much touted Gunnison relay team for first place.

S. lacks pep and that the business men of Grand Junction were lacking in support of the high school, is or should be out hiding in the sage brush or some such place in the desert, doing penance lor their sin. The inspiring demonstration of loyalty to G. J. H. S. given in the sending of the Tiger track team to the All-Western track and field meet at Boulder. May 13, was one of the finest indications of the spirit of our high school and the community interest ever recorded in the annals of Grand Junction high school. On the evening of May 10, when it seemed extremely doubtful that G. J. H. S. would be represented at the big track meet at Boulder, Elmer Hampson and Harry Peabody interviewed two prominent business men, who offered to go on the note of any high school organization that would borrow' the money from the bank to finance the trip. The Junior Rotary accepted this resi onsibility and Herman W. Vorbeck, Ole Nelson and T. J. Hampson went security on the $250 note. Fred Hinton, president; James Latimer, treasurer; Elmer Hampson, and Harry Peabody represented the club. The Rotary and Lions Clubs had been asked for one dollar from each member and it was given. Several business men gave larger amounts. At a riotous j ep meeting next morning $100 was raised by subscription from the students. The remainder of the $250 was furnished by the Boosters and Junior Rotary Clubs. In this way a fine chapter has been written in the history of G. J. H. S., and that evening saw the five track men and Coach Beattie on their way to the All-Western Track and Field meet. All Western Track Meet IN the All-Western Track and Field meet, held in Boulder. Saturday, May 13. thie Tigers won seventh place, leaving seventeen crack teams of the West to squabble over places from ninth down. Ft. Collins pulled down first in the meet mainly by capturing a large number of seconds and thirds. The locals undoubtedly w’ould have finished nearer tbe top of the list had their relay team had a fast team to run with. The relay was run in heats, the time of the winner of each heat being taken, and compared with the rest. The Tiger relay team finished a good fifty yards ahead of their opponents, but were up against a slow team, and so were not pushed to the full extent of their endurance. They tied for third. Friedman, of tbe Tiger team, tied for second individ- ual honors, w'ith 7 points to his credit. One man from Carlton, Mo., captured first individual honors. Friedman took second in the high jump and broad jump, and third in the shot put. The high jump was won at 5 feet 7% inches. The broad jumper who took first went 22 feet £ inches.

This has been the most successful year we have ever had in baseball, and this is due to training, coaching and an exceptionally fine lot of material. We were especially fortunate in obtaining the services of Harry Zimmer, a former major league star, as coach. Our only defeat of the season was one of a three-game series played with Olathe, the 1921 Western Slope champions. Sanders, Neish, Stevens, H. TuppeT and Purcell have played their last games for G. J. H. S., and their vacancies on the diamond next year will certainly be noticed. However, with the aid of Sloan, Gormley, Clark, MacKinnon, Medders, Smith, McFall, Chadwick and several recruits, we should have a championship team again next year.

The play is to be given at the Armory June 6, with a matinee in the afternoon. The production is again under the capable direction of Miss Ela. Edward Martin is the business manager. The opening scene is in a London boarding house, where Mary Ann, an orphan, is the household drudge. Among the boarders is Lancelot, a struggling music composer, who refuses to debase his talent to suit the taste of the time. Ho is kind to the lonely little Mary Ann, and she, in return, adores him and his music. Finally he is forced to move to the country, and, somewhat ashamed and reluctant, agrees to take Mary Ann with him. On the day of departure, Mary Ann inherits a fortune from a scape-grace brother who has died in America, and she goes out of Lancelot’s life. Six years later, Marian, a much admired heiress, is planning a concert for her charity work, and Lancelot, now grown famous, consents to take charge of it. The two meet and all ends hapily. CAST.

Louise Jones in Oriental Dance. G. J. H. S. has been especially fortunate in the choice quality of dramatic performances this year. These have aroused a desire for plays of this type.as a permanent feature. This could easily be accomplished by a dramatic club that would sponsor dramatic work among the high school students. The Junior Rotary Plays XN order to raise funds for the purchase of blankets for the athletic teams and sweaters for the champion Tigresses, the Junior Rotary gave the following two plays, the casts of which were made up of high school students: “A PAIR OF SIXES.” A three-ac t fare e of the highest quality, with a ca3t of like quality, and which could be easily classed as all-star. It was given February 24 and 25 at the Armory, where it was an immediate success. Miss Edra Walter and Mr. J. A. LaValliere were the coaches and Harry Peabody the manager. The Cast. T.

Mr. J. A. LaValliere was the director, and to him much credit is due for the sue cess of the play in stage setting and fine lighting effects. The outstanding feature of the play, however, was the acting of Louise Washburn and Mr. J. A. LaValliere. The comedy was furnished by Ester Rigg and Reginald Smith, both displaying a fine type of acting. The Cast.

THE BLACK AND BLUE PUBLISHED WHEN THE SPIRIT MOVES THE EDITOR VOL. 1 2c in the Alleys JUNE, 1922 1c on Trains Tigresses Defeat Fruita In the most exciting game of the football season, the Grand Junction Tigresses defeated the Fruita Lionesses 23 to 0. The game, played at Lincoln Park before 10.000 spectators was spectacular throughout and of which R. Rigg, R. Hall and E. Rigg were outstanding stars. The first half was an exhibation of line offense and defense and the terrific line plunging of R.. Rigg. In the third quarter, Pat Hall, brainy little quarter-back, called a fake end run whicrf fooled the Fruita eleven and allowed Rigg to score the first touchdown of the game and from the 5 Lvard line. Rigg then kicked goal. The real thrill of the day came in the last quarter. Junction kicked; the Lioness end made a good catch on Fruita's 10-yard line, but was downed in her tracks by V. Dills, speedy Tigress end. Fruita then fumbled: Hall caught the pigskin and raced across the goal line with another six points. Rigg again kicked goal. In the last five minutes of play Fruita kicked to the Junction's 10-vard line, where Spike Rigg aught it and made an 80-yard run through a broken field for a touchdown. R. Rigg kicked for goal and got it. Two points were given Junction as a bonus. Time was called frequently to allow both teams the use of vanity cases for much needed repairs. The Lioness line-up was not available from the hospital authorities. The Junction line-up: V. Dills R.E. R. Rigg F.B. M. Steele R.T. M. Unite L.H.B. V. Stout R.G. E. Rigg R.H.B. H. Meek.. - ___ C. R.

LITERARY Once upon a time a new girl came to town. Yea, verily. she was beautiful and clever and classy and all things desirable. She smiled sweetly and looked adorable. As I said before, she came to town. And, of course, they all fell for her. Among them two Juniors and a Sophomore. They loved her to distraction. They all ook her out. They played rings around each other to see who would get the next date. Things got pretty hot, eh? Oh. yes, what happened? She ditched them all for a Senior. N. B.—Yes. we admit that Harold has his bad points, but he is a capital lady killer. Reafcl the jokes among the ads. Athletes May Leave G. J. H. S. It is rumored that Ted Jones, star athlete, will not return to G. tJ. H. S., and it is also thought that Lyle Oates frill accomtfhny him in this decision. In an interview with a Black and Blue reporter, the young men were very reticent about the matter when pressed for further details: but it seems probable that next year will see them enrolled in Olathe high school.
