This showed good judgment on our part for he has proven himself to be our greatest athlete and one of our very able students. Tim feature of our Freshmen initiation was a girls' football team coached by John McGougb In the Freshmen declamation contest of that year Margaret Wilkes won first pin-c. Although we did not win very many honors in athletics, declamation or other activities, yet snjmo members of our class were n the football and tr;u-k squads, and we were preparing for greater deeds to come. Altogether our first year was one of peace and happiness. The following year Scott Murphy was our president Murphy was dur- ing life sojourn in our high school, one of our most active members. He made a place on the school debate team besides being one of our shining lights in track. The only social affair worth mentioning this year was a sleigh ride. Unfor- tunately for us the Seniors also planned a sleigliride for the same night.. They ran awav with our sleigh so we had to have a party in the gvmmLsium until ■ i they returned. Then our own sleighing party proceeded as we had planned During lliis year we in turn helped to make life miserable for the Freshmen. When we were juniors we won much honor and glory One member of our class. Lansing, was on the basketball team, and several on the football team, and Ralph Shield won fourteen points iasi year fur Missoula in the Interseho- lastic Track Meet. We gave two very successful dramatic productions which enabled us to give a very delightful banquet and “pronLX The banquet was served at the Palace Hotel Only members of the -Junior and firuior classes and of the Faculty were present, hut to the danre after the banquet, in the Elks' Temple the Alumni for two years back were invited. Scott Murphy was again president in our Junior year. When at last we became Seniors, we started the year right by voting to have an Annual. Xo Senior class since nineteen hundred and thirteen had pub- lished one. We did something else worthy of notice, by se Luting Osden Drey or as the class president. Tie is so full of ilpep“ and enthusiasm that he is the very best person that wc could possibly have chosen U lead us through our la st year of high school life. Thu other class officers are Florence Dixon, vice president; Tom Swearingen, treasurer; Oscar Nelson, secretary. The Senior boys have taken a very active part in athletics this year. “Dutch’1 Lansing being captain of both the football and basketball teams, and Ralph Sticht the track captain Roger Trafford, Josephine Shccdy and Margaret Wickes won places in tluh declamation contests. The Senior play produced this year was one of the best that lias ever been played in this high school. The Girls' Literary Club, newly organized this year, has for its officers three Senior girls, and the girls of this class have taken a far more active part in it than those of any other class. The Senior girls have engineered three very suc- cessful parties so far this year; one, in honor f the Senior boys: the last, in honor of Miss Simpson, our faculty bride-to-be. The Senior boys reciprocated with a party for their feminine classmates, The presidency of the Students1 Association is held by a member of the Semi or class. We have been more active all the year than any of the other classes. And now we are almost through with all of our labors, and our pleasures here, for surely our life in high school has not been composed of hardships alone, We began our career in this institution of learning with eighty members, but. although some additions have been made from other schools, we have been re- duced to fifty-five. Thus we can say that the words of the Good Book are true: uMany are called, but few are chosen M —L. M., '16.

Editorial Gentle Reader, please handle this volume with care. To you it may seem like a primer, but to those who have made it—well, it is as huge a work as the dictionary. We fully realize now why Noah Webster fainted at the completion of liis task, and we think that our lunik is even better than Noah’s because its plot is a trifle more £ 1 connected.” The editorial staff has had its troubles. At the beginning of the year the Business Manager and his assistants determined the size, shape and price of the ads, organized forces and started work at once. As soon as the other duties had been assigned, everyone “got busy 1 The snap-shot editor snapped every- one lie could catch; the literary editor read stories and sonnets; the organizations were written up; data was kept for the calendar, and subscriptions were taken. The editor undoubtedly seemed mad to everyone who saw her rushing about dis- tractedly, Certain individuals avoided her if they could but if she was luekv % SB enough to catch one you could hear her say, “Gladys have you finished those Society notes yet?

The Faculty Knowing that a teacher's influence remains throughout our lives, shaping our character, our deeds and giving direction to our future occupations, the class of 1916 cannot estimate the good you have done, nor arc we able to give you the thanks due to you. At this time we cannot thank you. Nor will we try. But in vears to come we will have manv successes mixed with failures and a ft we expect to come out triumphantly in the end. Looking hack we will be able to see the good you have done us and just what a prominent part you have played in our history; the making of our lives and the establishing of our well being, morally, physically and mentally. A glance over the past year will show the truth of this statement. You have done all a teacher should do and all that a student should expect of you. Through your guidance we have become Seniors and have graduated. We realize more and more that we have the best corps of teachers in the northwest and that nowhere in the Union is there a more conscientious, school-spirited group of persons Ilian the twenty-two that make up our faculty. “It will uoon. Yi arc in dutv hound to follow vnur teachings, realize vour «■ • ■ expectations of us and follow your ideals through our lives. These few words express onr thoughts concerning the ones who have given ns ideals to work for. and we cannot attempt any thanks for what good you have done us. Twenty years hence we will realize what you have accomplished in your patient workings with us and then we will silently Imt fervently give thanks to those who have shaped the trend of onr lives. Some of us may not see you again, bnt we will always have a cheerful remembrance for Our Faculty. ■ Shurik Smith. Garrison, Simpson, ! look, hmstiansen. TKAl'l I KKS Hitch, Tastle.

Our president with his genial, sunny way, has led us up the steep heights of popularity and fame. In all his work hr has been ably seconded by our vice president. Constant and true has been our fair secretary to alt the calls of class duty. Last, but not least, comes our Will, who has so ably guarded the strong box which represents the financial achievements of the Class of M7. After the glad rush of holidays, while the year was young and new. the long looked forward to carnival arrived with its train of stunts. The vaudeville, with its celebrated Parisian dancing dolls, was the most profitable of the evening A visit to the chamber of h errors was so horrifying that it called for all the ladies to he escorted. The house of mysterfiss was a place long to be remembered Many fair Sophomores' dreams were disturbed by the continual reappearance of these mysteries. At the coming of the sweet spring days, along with nature's musical, tin1 talented Juniors held their musical with all its powers to soothe, (.lever numbers were given by prominent singers of the city. Nor must we forget the brilliant Freshman who ablv assisted us. V The most brilliant of social functions up to this date is the Leap Year dance Both courage and skill were ex IB bi ted by the fair sex in selecting their partners and conveying them to the dance. The young men were noted on this particular occasion for that innate modesty which is a strong characteristic of the Class of '17. for they blushed becomingly when they shouldn't and failed to when they should Some demure maidens failed to render proper assistance up the long flights of stairs to the dance hall on this rare occasion, which comes but once in four vears. Several of the ho vs constituted themselves a private detective s force to locate valuable missing articles, such as powder-puffs and button hooks. The proceeds of the Leap Year dance were increased at a later {bite by 1 sweet sales. on which occasions the boys showed their appreciation of all past favors by donating the goods and generously purchasing the same. As a fitting climax to a brilliant social year will be the Junior Prom, at which time the departing Seniors will receive the hard-earned benefits of the year gone by. —FL C , 17. Jfresfymen OFFICERS. Jack Stone ....... Matt Pearce ...... Dorothy Dixon..... Earl Barry ....... . . President Vice-President Score tar y - Treasurer Sergeant-at-Arms COLORS: Orem and Hold The Glories of ’19 The class of 19, has nearly finished its brilliant career as Freshmen with a membership of 225. Much class spirit has been exhibited and many have been the activities. The earnest members gathered eggerly in the assembly room to select officers for the school year; After several stirring moments, those elected were Jack Stone, president; Lois Jones, vice president, and Dorothy Dixon, secre- tary-treasurer. Soon plans for a party were formed, and days filled with enthusiasm fol- lowed. The gymnasium, for that was the place of our merriment, was decorated in the class colors, of green and gold. The room was packed to its utmost capacity, A sleigh ride proved to be extremely exciting. This eventful party took place on an icy night when the wind blew frantically. The heavily laden hob. which here- tofore had glided over the white surface of the earth, plunged into a huge drift and required the efforts of many to pull it from the snowy depths, Tn the meantime, interest in the meetings grew and the recitation rooms Failed to hold those who look part in the heated discussions. Humors of another good time spread quickly. Tn fact, there was to he a masquerade. Costumes queer, and costumes dainty, were that night taken from dark recesses. The cup of joy was bubbling over and the merry-makers were dancing into the night But lo! a crash like thichder sounded upofi the peaceful atmosphere. What unoor classman had dared to break the plate-glass window in the door of the gvm ? Tbi episode shall fleer lie forgiven; if cost many weary hours of toil to bring ns back from the jaws of deht. Track meet drew near and the Sophomore trembled with terror as he gazed upon the mighty and swift-footed Freshman. Our opponents put forth every effort but in vain; the score would rise lo 108i while theirs would go no farther than bi. The Fresh in an victory was shouted from the housetops; Still another laurel taken, we were defeated by the Seniors only in the interclass meet. Again, the first year stars. Earl Barry and Robert Egan, did exceedingly well to win points for old Missoula high in the iniei'schnlastio meet. The Sophomores, however, not diseouraged at former defeats, eagerly sallied forth to win the debate. To have the numerals of '19 engraved upon the Konah shield, because that was the reward, was the goal of our debaters. Breathless, the audience awaited the outcome. We were again the victors, and the first Freshman class to hold this honor. Another star had been added to our alreadv well-filled crown At different times other honors had been conferred: Anne Hall placed second in the Dixon declamation contest; Matt Pearce made the debate team of M. fl. S,: again the only first-year student who had been success- ful. The Freshman historv of ‘19 has been illumined with honor and distinction, a fid it has lived up to its motto, ' ‘ Excelsior ' —E J.. 19. As if is new. V IlTERART Soxy’s Mistake “There «he goes now, exclaimed Soxy, looking down the hall toward a pretty brown-eved girl who was hurrying across the hall. 11 She sure is a peach of a girl! ’ ’ “Some queen, all right,” said good-natured Red. “She’s about the prettiest girl 1 know. Come on, let’s have1 our fortunes told. This is the place right here,” The boys were at the Junior carnival and they had seen and done everything except have their fortunes told, Soxy's fortune was quite favorable. He was told that a dark-eyed girl had come into his life whom he admired very much, lie should cultivate her acquaintance for she would have a good influence on him. Red stood by during the fortune telling with a broad grin on his face, but Soxy was thinking of the dark-eyed girl in the hall. After the boys had had their fortunes told they wandered up and down the halls. It was growing late and there were not many people around, “I wish that Barbara would go to the sleighride with me.” said Soxy, for Barbara was the dark-eyed girl, “but Ilank Gibbous is always hanging around her. I suppose she'll go with him. He lives right across the street from her and she sold him some of her books, so that they are pretty well acquainted. I don’t believe she likes him much, though.” “There they are now.” said Red. “I suppose he’s taking her to the dance.” 44 T suppose so, ’' answered Soxy,4 41 ain 't going to the dance myself. Come on in here, he added, as he slunk into a classroom. “There’s nothing going on here, ’ ’ Although Soxy didn't say so. he didn't want Ilank to see him. As he slid into a seat he pulled out a book to see whose seat he was in. 44Well, I'll he jiggered! he ejaculated, “this is Barbara’s seat. See, this history has her name in it. Say. Red. I have an idea! I'm going to write a note here in the front and ask her to go to the sleighride with me.” Red thought it was a brilliant idea and Soxy wrote the note in the book. After he had signed his name lie wrote, 1 S. If it would be convenient for vou, I would like to have you let me know whether or not you can go Monday night. I’ll meet vou at vour gate at sevon-thirtv.” -i «77 The next morning when Soxy awoke, the first thing he thought of was the note. Then he felt exceedingly foolish, “That was a silly thing to do, he thought, “she’ll be sure not to go with me now. I don't know what possessed me to do such a thing. I guess that fool fortune-teller had something to do with it—and things seem so much different at night than in the broad daylight. She'll think that I was afraid to go up and ask her to her face. Gee, I’m a nut!” The thought of that note bothered Soxy all day Sunday. He decided to go 11 i i bo school early Monday morning and erase it. However, when Soxy went into the room Monday morning, Barbara was already there. He blushed, stammered a good morning and hurried out. About seven-fifteen Monday night Soxy stood on the corner where Barbara lived. He was fifteen minutes early, but he wanted time to think what he would say. At the same time Hank (ribbons, wearing a dark blue dress of his sister's, which was verv much too tight for him. was standing in front of her mirror trv- ■' 1 Mi ' jii ing on hats. He finally chose a wide-brmmed. floppy hat. and snatching up a coat, stood and grinned at his reflection. Then he took a history buck from the dresser and, glancing at the inside cover, he grinned all the harder. ‘ I'll be there all right, old chap,M he chuckled to himself, “at seven-thirty sharp,” Soxy had been waiting only a minute when the door of the Brooks home opened and Barbara came down the walk. He was startled for he did not expect to see her for at least fifteen minutes. To his annoyance she seemed surprised to see him there. Oh, hello.” she said, and as Roxy came up to her she added, “I was just going down to Grace’s after her English notebook.” Soxy was still more annoyed, but he asked if lie might accompany her. Neither mentioned a note in the front of a history until thev were nearly at m Grace’s. Then Soxy summoned up all his courage and said. ££T suppose you got mv note, didn’t von?” J Hb' Your note?” questioned Barbara in surprise. “What note?” Why, didn’t you get it?” said Soxy. feeling relieved but mizzled. “It was just a note asking you to go to the sleighride,” he explained. “I wrote it in your ancient history.” Why, I don’t take ancient history.” said Barbara. Oh, don’t yon?” said Soxy, now thoroughly puzzled, “That’s funny, but will you go t.o the sleighride with me anyhow?” “Why, yes.” answered Barbara, “I should love to go. It ’s next Friday, isn’t it?” she added, as they went up the walk to Grace’s. “I don’t believe there is anvone home here,” said Roxv. r ' “No, there isn’t,” said Barbara.” for there isn't a single light burning. Well, I guess I’ll go hack home again.” she added, and both of them started back the way they had come. Hank had sneaked over into Barbara s yard and was growing rather uneasy waiting for Soxy. As Barbara and Soxv came up to the gate. Barbara’s father came out in search of his evening paner. He heard Hank’s steps at the side of the house and went around to investigate. Hank, however, had caught sight of Barbara and Soxy coming up the walk and was so surprised that he didn’t hear Mr, Brooks coming. There was a bright moon and Mr. Brooks recognized Hank in spite of his effeminate clothing. “Well, Henry,” he exclaimed, “what on earth are you doing around here in that kind of a rig?” Hank, however, did not wait to answer, Tn his excitement he dropped the history and raced across the yard past Roxy and Barbara, “Why. that was Henry!” exclaimed Barbara, and then they hurried over to the place where Hank had dropped the book. Soxy picked up the book and there on the inside cover was the note he had written just below the name, “Barbara Brooks.” “Ree?” he inquired, as he showed the note to Barbara, “It has your name in it.” “Oh, yes,” exclaimed the girl, “that is the history I used last year, but I sold it to Henry this year. ” The next morning Hank met Roxy with a sheepish look, but as Soxy handed him his history he said, “It’s all right, Ilank. She is going with me. 11 I t anyway ■M. S„ ’18. A Modern Cinderella It was a beautiful moonlight night The world looked as if the fairies had scattered precious diamonds on the gleaming snow. Old Sentinel beamed down upon t lie campus of the University of Montana with a fatherly aspect The beauty and mystery of the wonderful night made little Betty Brownlow happy just to be alive. She clutched a tiny package in her arm and hurried up the steps of the Dorm. “Hello you old darling! ' she cried to her room-mate, Dorothy Duncan, I have just been to the postoffice to get this package, 1 wonder what it is. Ct is from Aunt Mary. Oh! I can't get this old string untied fast enough. Ouch! There it is.” “Oh ] Ah ! The girls cried in unison. Dot took up one of the dainty red slippers, that had just come from Aunt Mary in Paris, and exclaimed, “Betty 1 Do you mean to say these will fit you? 1 didn't know your feet were so small. This slipper looks as Cinderella's must have done.” “Oh!” Betty cried. “They will look wonderful with mv new red dress tonight at the athletic ball. Dot, I '11 be all in red and gold- Oh ! I am so happy P’ Seven silvery chimes rang out over the quiet campus. The girls started to dress. Betty began to comb her hair in great haste. Dot. rushing to find her brush, was keeping up a lively conversation with Betty. Betty suddenly became quid and her rosy lips formed themselves into an irresistible pout, as site said, “Oh! dear! I wish I were going with Bob. I was such a chump to get angry at him. I know ho would like me in my new dress and slippers. Red is his favorite color. ’ Soon the girls were dressed, Betty was radiant in her scarlet dress and slippers with the little touch of gold on them. From the tips of her tiny toes to her beautifully coiled hair, she was perfection. Her new scarlet slippers added to her lovely costume. She made such a pretty picture, and her dress and slippers were so bright, that Dot exclaimed: “You look as if a fairy godmother had touched you with her wand and turned the school girl into a md Cinderella,” The dance was a brilliant affair. The soft lights, beautiful music, and charmingly gowned girls made the old “gym” look like a fairy palace Betty was easily the most beautiful girl on the floor, and indeed, Bob, from his place in one of the cozy corners saw no one else that whole evening. Bob refused to dance that evening and no inducement of his friends could make that “dumpy stag” dance. After the dance, Betty slipped her precious slippers in her pocket and she and Harry May brook scurried across the campus to the Dorm, as it was late and Betty must be in before twelve o'clock. A little while after they had disappeared, Bob slowly and reluctantly crossed the campus. His head was lowered and he walked like man in a dream. The moon was shining brightly on the glistening snow. Suddenly; with a erv, Boh S.T a C ? fl • J I ■ darted forward and picked up a tiny high-heeled slipper. It was scarlet and had a rich gold buckle on it. He did not know how long he stood there looking at the pretty slipper. It was so small, that he could hold it out on the palm of his hand. Some time later a sweet voice at his elbow said, “Did you find my slipper Bobby? 1 1 came to look' for it, I thought no one would see me, and—” “Betty!” Bob said fervently, as he turned and seized her little hand in Ins large ones, “Don’t, Bob. I am awfully sorry that, th—— 1 was so horrid! Please forgive me. (Pause.) May I have my slipper? It is getting late and f just had to come to find my—” “Betty, dear, I am going to keep the slipper for a while. And, dear where can I find your father? I have something to talk over with him,” Boh said with determination —G. P.f '16. Pug” Henderson, Substitute “Pug” Henderson was the biggest, ugliest, awkwardest boy in high school. They called him “Pug” because his nose resembled a tumed-up cucumber. ITis face was almost repulsive, in its freckled singularity with the rest of the world, IJis disposition was jovial. Good nature seemed to radiate from: every pore, TTis clear blue eyes were always smiling, yet if one took the trouble to penetrate the smile, he might see an indomitable spirit peacefully reposing behind those de- ceptive curtains. The day of days for Missoula High School had arrived The great champion- ship football game between Butte and Missoula was to be played that very after- noon and the weather was perfect. The time came for the game, The band struck up a lively air as the Butte Invisibles trotted haughtily onto the field. Missoula soon followed and the local rooters sent up a deafening cheer. The referee called out, “Are you ready. Missoula ? '' The answer came, “We are.” The game was on. “Pug” Henderson, as was his custom, sat on the sidelines with the rest of the “subs.” He watched the game in an unconcerned way, as the two best teams in the state fought it out for the State Championship, lie never took anything seriously; he wasn't built that wav. But what does that excitement among the players mean ? Some are running for water, others are shouting, “Give him air!” Something has happened to one of the players. Soon a light-haired boy is being carried limply from the field. The figure of this boy is so familiar that a groan escapes the bleachers as M+ IT. S. rooters realize that Dutch Lansing, our Dutch, and the brains of the team, has broken an arm and cannot continue in the game. The voice of Coach McGough is heard. “Anderson, take Lansing's place at quarter, and you, “Pug” Henderson, take Andy's place at half. You know the signals. Let's see what you've got in you. If you show a yellow streak now the game is last. I'm going to watch you.” “Pug” felt the blood rush through his brain. For the first time in his life he was serious. A score of b-b and three minutes left to play was anything but ludicrous. His muscles became tense; his jaws came together with a decisive click. IIe‘d show Me Gough that there was no yellow streak in him ,was his thought as he took his position at half. “22. 18. 41—hike,” snapped out Andy. Now or never thought “Pug” as he automatically jumped into place to receive the ball. lie gathered the pass, tucked the ball under his arm and plunged through the hole the tackles had opened for him. Did he make a big gain? Did he? He made a touch down. Tie was so all- fired mad that a stone wall couldn't have stopped him. And Missoula won the championship? They did. by a score of 13 to 6. And what did “Pug” Henderson say? Well, after the game they all crowded to him to congratulate him on his wonderful touchdown and everything, but he didn't seem to care much about their compliments. “What does McGough think about it. does he still think I'm yellow?” he asked. McGough happened to he standing within hearing distance and he came over and slapped “Pug” on the shoulder and said. “Pug. old boy. I'm proud of you. I'm going to pick you for my all-state team.” And “Pug” was so happy that genuine tears of joy began to trickle down his dear old homelv face, —F. P., '16. ■fcf Wlien Marse Patty Came After Mammy Lou Mammy Lou was finishing the week’s ironing in the old out-kitchen of the big house. It was getting late in the afternoon, and the long shadows from the persimmon tree lay across the threshold, warning her that she would have to ‘ ‘step lively’’ if she got through before supper time, “No, Miss Lizzie, I jes’ caint tell you’-all no mo’ stories dis ebeninh ” she said, shaking her head decidedly. “Seems lak hit sorter disrupts my min’ when I tries to talk and wirk, too; an I jes’ gotter get dis vere ironin’ done. ” “But you promised, Mammy Lou,” wailed a chorus of small voices. If Mammy Lou never did anything else she never broke her promises to the children. “Did I, sho’ nuff ?” she mused. “Now huccome me do dat, when I knowed I had all dis yere wirk to do, an ’ de beans to shell, an7 dat ar pullet to pick, an ’—” “Let me shell the beans,” cried Lizzie, “and Tommy and Maribell can pick the chicken. Then you can tell the story while you iron just well’s not. You know you do it lots. ’ ’ “Hum-m-m, well I s’pose I might,” replied the goodnatiired old darky, always glad of an excuse to humor her beloved charges. “Now. Miss Lizzie, let me tie dis big towel ovah yo’ clean dress; an’ vo’ Miss Maribell, run arr get an ap’on foT yo’ an’ Marse Tom. Dar, now!” “Now we’re ready, Mammy Lou,” prompted Lizzie when the beans and feathers had begun to fly from energetic fingers. “Le-me-see, ” pondered Mammy, absently testing a fresh iron. Shall I tell erbout de brin’Ie cow what got les5 in de woods ’cause she was too squint-eyed to go straight home, or ’bout-—” “Aw! don’t tell none of those baby stories,” protested Tommy. “Tell another ha’ut story, about Uncle Zcb what was cornin’ down dc road by the graveyard and a ghost come out and grabbed his coattails,” he pleaded, and the others gave a shiver of delight as they added their appeals to his. “Well, I dunno, children,” Mammy said. “It’s Friday and de dark ob de moon an’ hit aint jas’ de time fo’ to tell you’-all sech tales. Old Marse Patty mighty ’tielar how we-uns talk ov-ah his ’fairs.” “Uncle Zeb don’t say 'Marse Patty,’ he says ’de debble,’ ” volunteered Tommy. ■ “flush-h-h, chile!” hastily interposed Mammy, rolling her eves to the darkest comer of the kitchen. “Taint p’lite to speak of de gem’man dat away ” “Oh, go on, Mammy Lou. You know Old Patty can’t touch you with that rabbit’s foot around your neck,” urged Tommy. “M-hnm ! Well, whar’s I at? Dar, now! I ’dare to goodness ef I ainf gone an’ bu’nt you maw’s bes’ tablecloth, astanding here disaways. Old Marse Patty oughter get me sho ’ nuff. ’ ’ “What kind of a coat did he have on?” interposed Maribell. Considerable help was needed to get Mammy Lou started; “Hit was dat long-tailed preachin’ coat,” replied Mammy rising obligingly to the bait. “He was cornin’ down de lane in de dark, when all a sudden he felt somethin’ bangin’ on his coat tails an—” , ■ How did he know it was Marse Patty ?1 ’ inquired Lizzie. “He done heard de 'free raps,” solemnly replied Mammy. ‘Free—slow— raps!” She struck the table three times with her hand, “When yo’ hears 'free —slow—raps, dat-a-way, hit means, To’ better watch out! ,I’se er cornin’!” Den you mus’ say, fWho is yo?’ Hit muss’ be 'free raps, not seben or one, day don’ count. If der comes free mo’ raps hit means, 4I’m old Marse Patty!’ Den yo’ got-ter say, “Who yo’ atter?’ and ef der comes free mo’ raps it means £T’m atter you! ’’ Oil! Lawdy! What dat ? ’ ’ Mammy Lou, her eyes bulging nearly out of her forehead, leaned over the ironing board to peer into the dark corner behind the stove. Listening intently. the children heard, clearly and distinctly, three slow raps coming from that direction. Everything was suspended and each gazed awe-stricken toward the corner where the mysterious sounds came from. Mammy Lou clutched wildly at the rabbit’s foot around her neck and man aged to gasp out in a whisper, “Who is you?” Almost without a pause there came three more raps. - f “It’s old Marse Patty,” whispered Lizzie, clinging to Tommy in terror. Old Mammy Lou, her face the color of ashes, and her eyes wide with horror, managed to break the string holding the rabbit’s foot and held it straight towards the corner with as much steadiness as her hands could muster. Again, clear and loud, came three more raps. With a howl of terror the children flung themselves into the protection of Mammy Lou’s apron and all rushed frantically from the room. At that moment a crash came from the corner followed by a loud, rasping cry. Mammy Lou, from the doorway, saw a black object emerge from the corner, heard a series of terrifying squawks, and turning to flee missed her footing and rolled to the groimd. The half-picked chicken, which Tommy still held made a cushion for Maribell and the beans were scattered everywhere. Edwin, sauntering up the path to ask when supper would be ready, viewed with amazement the shocking scene. “Why, Mammy Lou!” he exclaimed, “What on earth made you come down stairs that way ? ” “Oh, Marse Edwin!” she wailed, “It’s de free raps, free—slow—raps! I reckon old Marse Patty sho7 come foJ yo? Mammy dat time.” Bewildered, Edwin listened to the story, which he could make out with diffi- culty from the excited tales of the children arid Mammy’s frightened interjections. When it was told, he threw back his head and roared with laughter. “You silly old fool!” he said when he could speak again. “That was only the chicken behind the stove looking for crumbs and she must have happened to pick them up three at a time. T guess she must have upset a pan or something when she tried to escape.” Mammy Lou picked herself up and stalked indignantly up the steps. “Jes’s if dis old nigger don7 know a chicken from, de debble hisself!” she snorted. “Now chilTen yo’-all jes’ go ’long. I don7 tell yo’ no more stories on Fridays noways.” —W. K., ’17. ifootball At the beginning of the school year of 1913-1914, under the expert coaching of McGough, we looked forward to a bright year on the football field. The team was very light and for the most part inexperienced, but appeared to be very fast and full of fight. The first game of the year was with Hamilton. Some say the score was 96 to 0 and others that it was 110 to 0; at any rate, it was so large that most oi mem tost track of it. The next game was with Butte, early in October. Butte was looking for revenge for the 31 to 0 drubbing that we gave them the year before and they partly got it. The score was 13 to ( in their favor. Then came the Gallatin game. It was our turn to go after revenge and the boys played like veterans. They showed more real football in this game than any high school team that had ever played on Montana field. We went them one better and beat them 24 to 0 against their score of 26 to 14 of the previous year. This ended the home season and the boys played two more games away from home, one at Biiilipsburg and one at Victor. The scores were respectively 43 to 0 and 61 to 0 in our favor. At Victor the boys had a most enjoyable time. They gave us a chicken dinner about an hour before the game and the boys sure did fill up. Most of them ate so much that they could hardly run. If they hadn't done this there is no telling how large the score might have been. This ended a very suc- cessful season. The team lined up as follows: Ends, Kemp and Doty; tackles, McQuarrie, Dorsey, Spencer, Toole; guards, Eahart and Carver; center, Hester; quarter, Auderson (Capt.); halves, Jones, bansing and Murphy; full back, Metlen. 1914. Again at the start of this year, with Hester as captain, we went out after the state championship. With seven letter men back, the prospects looked extremely bright, and we could see no barrier between us and the championship. The first game of the season was with the team from the College of Montana from Deer Lodge. The score was about 100 to 0 in our favor. Our next game was played in Butte. The keen rivalry between the schools was in evidence everywhere. It was one of the most heart-breaking games that Missoula ever had. The field was covered with ice and snow and a cold wind was blowing across the gridiron. During the first half of the game our team had the best of it but could not score. In the second half the play was about even until the last five minutes when Butte started a march to our goal line. There was only ten seconds left to play when Butte pushed the ball over and won the game, 6 to 0. Two weeks later we brought Great Falls here. The university field being too wet, the game was played at the ball park and resulted rather disasteroualy for Missoula. In the first quarter Great Falls scored a touchdown on a fumbled punt and this was the last time that they got within striking distance of our goal. In fact, they did not make first down once during the entire game. Missoula could gain almost at will until she got within ten yards of Great Falls' goal and then through lack of head work and team work the ball would stop. This was the case all through the game and it ended 7 to 0 in favor of Great Falls. On Thanksgiving day our boys went to Billings to play. This was probably the longest trip ever taken by a high school in Montana to play a football game. It proved a walk- away for Billings. In the early part of the sramc two of our men were hurt and had to be taken out and the remaining veterans were hurt to some extent. Any- way. we got beat 65 to 0 to the surprise of both sides. The treatment received in Billings more than offset the defeat and tile boys felt and still feel endebted to Billings high for the fine time which they had there. This ended the season. The fellows who played the different positions during the year were A. Nelson, Crouch and Wilburn, ends; MeQuarrie and Spencer, tackles; Hawk, Maddox and Carver and 0. Nelson, guards; Deschamps, center; Lansing, quarter; Hester (Capt), Anderson and Jones, half-backs; Metlen, fullback, 1915. Well—er—ah—well, anyway, we got beat by Stevensville 24 to 21. After this, on account of parental objections and lack of interest in the game, football was dropped for the year. The men who played in the game were; Lansing (Capt.), II. Sehlossberg, Lawrenson, Doty, Wilburn, Granger, Maddox, Barry, Clark, Anderson, Bell and Banning. The First Morning of School After Vacation I awoke and, oh! 1 found it very late. I jumped into my clothes with greatest haste. For I did not have any time to waste, As it was now already half-past eight, f madly rushed outside and to the gate And then I found my shoes were still unlaced. These quickly tied, I up the street then raced, But missed a ear which was my fate. I ran and finally arrived at school One minute after that old bell had rung, And I was counted as a tardy one. And now according to the foolish rule, Must stay these forty minutes after school And that is why I have this sonnet sung. —A. W.. '16. Wilburn. fonvard; Lansing, center; Lawrenjeeson, sub, ScHlofes- berer forward: Grander, sub h, guard; Courtney, K iard. For the two years previous to 1914, Missoula's team had been steadily gain- ing prominence and at the start of the 1914 season, a contender for Thu state championship was expected. and the followers were not disappointed, that is, not so much. The following is a list of the games played with the scores: Missoula 10 Missoula 43 Missoula 28 Missoula 36 Missoula 30 Missoula 19 Missoula 39 Missoula 32 Missoula 41 Missoula 35 Missoula 36 Missoula 52 Missoula 33 Missoula 16 Philipsburg 17 Philipsburg 27 Helena 20 Big Timber 22 Wallace 20 Burke, Idaho, 13 Butte 20 Helena 29 Wallace 13 Forsyth 7 Butte 24 Dillon 28 Carbon 19 Helena 17 That is not such a bad record, is it? Winning twelve out of fourteen games is an excellent record and one that we should be proud of, to say the least After beating decisively all the good teams in the state we went to tournament at Boze- man easy favorites, but the luck broke against us and Helena beat us in the last game by the close score of 17 to 16. It was a game that will be remembered by those who saw it for many years to come It is not half bad to get second place among the twenty-five teams entered. The team that represented Missoula were: Eaheart and Jones, guards; McQuarrie, center; Hester and Lansing, forwards, and Whistler and Pox, substitutes, Eaheart and Hester were picked on the All-State team 1914-1915. Three men were left from the team of the last year, namely: Mt-Quarrie, Lansing and Jones. With these three Coach Me Gough built up a team that was nearly as strong as the former team. Fox was placed at forward and Crouch at the vacant guard. Hawk and Wilburn acted as substitutes during the season. During the early part of the season class games were played and resulted in the class of 1915, then Sophomores, winning the championship. The class of ’17 was secondj H6 third, and 18 was in the cellar After this the regular team started in to have regular workouts. The first game of the season was played with Helena and proved a defeat for the home team, 19 to 10, The team went to Great Falk from Helena and turned the tables, winning easily by the score of 29 to 20, Two weeks later Philipsburg was played at the gym and defeated to the time of 45 to 6 On Washington's birthday we played Helena again. Much to the satisfaction of the home team and followers we defeated the champions 43 to 33. This was one of the fastest and best games ever played on the university floor. Captain Mc uarrie was the star of the game, shooting one long basket after another. The whole team played excellent ball and deserve much credit. On the following Friday Stevensville was taken into camp easily 35 to 17. The next week the last home game was played with Butte and Missoula got another victory to her credit. The tournament was a repetition of the year before. The following is a list of the scores in the games in which Missoula contested: TRACK-1914. Early in tho second semester Coach Me Gough started the track men to work, taking long runs and indoor exercise to develop “wind” and endurance and the result of the hard and continuous work was very satisfactory. There were no interschool meets in 1914 and only a meet with the university freshmen which 9 a resulted in an easy victory for the high school. The rest of the time was taken b‘ ■- Q up by hard work on the track which the board built for us at the end of Sixth street east. As the time of the meet approached everyone seemed in the “pink of condition ' and the championship seemed almost within our grasp. But, the meet proved faster than we had expected and we had to he content with second place. Gallatin winning first with 33 points, Missoula second with 26, and Butte, touted to win the meet, third with 24 points. The men who were entered from Missoula were : A. Anderson, ( Andersson, Gavin.

The following placed: Kemp ((’apt.), Foster. Stitch. Murphy. Denny, Anderson and Dorsey. Missoula's was the only team that had so many men place. Gallatin had only three, Oort Howard making 24 of their points himself, and Butte also had only three men who placed. This shows that Missoula's team was well balanced and one that earned everything that they got bv teamwork and not bv having individual stars. Too ■ “ it ■C-1 5 a O much credit cannot lie given to John McGough for the training which he gave the hoys and for the spirit which he put into them. 1915. By tho same stiff, long, training that had been prevalent since the coming of McGough. the boys worked during the spring of 1915 and in the end they got their due reward, the State Championship, This was the first since 1908 that Missoula had won the annual meet at the university, and the first time that it had been won by anybody without the help of individual stars. We had the best balanced team in the meet and for that reason we got the honors. This was truly a fitting climax to Coach McGough s career here as athletic director. The following men were entered: C. Anderson. Lansing. Metlen, Roberts. Bladder. Carver, Trafford. Sticht. Graves. Marble. Jacobson, McQuarrie. Beckwith, Hawk. Wilburn and Phillips.

Every live and school-spirited student in school belongs to this organization. Its main purpose is to manage and finance school activities, draw the students closer together and provide social events. This year the association has accomplished all three of these aims. It has successfully pro- moted and financed all school activities. The organization lias now a greater membership than ever before and has succeeded in making its members feel as if they were a part of the school. The first social event of the season was the Fresh- man initiation, at which time the Freshmen were formally introduced into the school. The success of the Students' Association this year was largely due to the work of the officers who are Lewis Lansing, president; Frank Phillips, vice president; Ozete Hatcher, secretary; T. It, Ilazelrigg} treasurer. THE BOYS' SENATE, Next to the Students' Association the Boys ’ Senate is the oldest organization in school, for it reaches back to the time when most of its members were in the primary grades. In 1910 it adopted a strict constitution and since then has been on a firm basis. The officers of the senate are elected every semester. This year the presi- dents were Sinclair Maclay and Lawrence Rerg. The boys have taken even more interest in this organization this year than in the past. At the beginning of the year Mr. Simes, our censor, prophesied that the senate would be the liveat body in school; and it has certainly come up to this prophecy. The interest has been so great and the attendance so large that it has been necessary to limit the membership. One of the things the senate has to he proud of this year is the winning of a debate from the Girls1 Literary Club on the subject of simplified spelling. The senate lias certainly accomplished its purpose, to advance the art of public speaking and to teach the use of parliamentary rules. The school's most able speakers have developed their talents while debating weighty, national ques- tions in the senate. INMISSOUI ETKA LITERARY SOCIETY. The Inmissouletka Literary Society is named after the Indian word for Missoula. It is a girls’ club, and was organized to bring the girls more closely together, and to stimulate their interest in literature and dramatics. It was started in the early part of the year, and the membership steadily rose to about seventy. Any high school girl or lady member of the faculty is eligible, so long as she is willing to take an active part in the club. No dues are charged, but at social sessions small collections are taken to pay for refreshments. The club meets twice a month. One session, consisting of a business meeting and a pro- gram. is held on Friday at 4:00 o'clock, in the assembly room. The other, which j ■ 'i' is a social meeting, is usually held in the gymnasium. The programs consist of original papers, readings, recitations, songs, and instrumental music. Some of the subjects given during the winter were : Mon- tana, Dixie, Humorous Selections, Hallowe'en, Christmas. A Scoteh-Irish and a War program were also given. Two of the most enjoy- able sueiill gatherings were the Old-Fashioned and the Co-ed parties. The officers of the club are . Ilazel Egan, president; Lcathie McCarthy, vice president, and Harriet Hall, secretary-treasurer. Idle committee which has charge of the programs consist of Ozete Hatcher. Lois Showed, Alma Burkhart, Marie Jones and Marjorie Simons. Each program is under the leadership of one of the girls of the Senior class, and is chosen by the chairman of the program committee. The leader is responsible for the success of the program of which she is in charge, and supervises and corrects all original papers and the choice of selections Although tins organization was just established this year, it lias been succcss- fill, and will undoubtedly continue so for vears. It has served to bring the girls ■ ■ i together and to overcome their reluctance to speak before an audience. besides furnishing many a good time to its members, TI1E GERMAN CLUB. The German Club was started last year under the leadership of Miss Sehocler- mann. AH students in the German department of the school and members of the faculty are eligible to membership. The members of this organization have certainly enjoyed themselves and profited greatly by the work of the club. Reg’ ular meetings are held every week, at which time the members enjoy programs of reading, recitations and music. Several social meetings are held during- the year. Last year the club gave two parties and a picnic. The Christmas program this year was one of the most enjoyable parties given in the gymnasium this season. During the party Santa Claus entered and gave everybody a present. Some received dolls or horns, while others were lucky enough to be given candy. Each year the German Club stages a play. This year the play, “Ein Aruerikanishehes Duell,” was given. £ 4 r ZETA PHI. ? I should know what God and man is.'' “Flowers in the crannied wall. I pluck you out of the crannies, I hold you here, root and all. in my hand Little flower, but if 1 could understand What you are root and all and all in all. The Zeta Phi was organized early last fall by the students of the biology classes. We have twenty-five charter members and on account of its popularity more students are constantly asking for admission. We have had several long hikes and picnics, which have been the talk of the school. Many interesting lec- tures, an excellent debate, “Eugenics vs. Euthenies,” and many lively programs. We hold tin highest honor of any society in our school of having written the first biology play. This play was written by tlie members of the “Zeta Phi ’ Ji pre- sents the ancient past, near past, present and future. Ji is a lively and snappy play. The “Zeta Phi” meets every Wednesday evening at 4 :1a under the super- vision of Florence Dixon, president; Joe Smith, vice president; Fbha Anderson, secreta i'v-treasu rer. THE FARRARIAN CLUB. The Farrarian Club, under the direction of Miss Evelyn Castle, is a girls’ musical organization, named in honor of the popular American prima-donna, Geraldine Farrar. Comprised of forty members, it is nevertheless one of the smoothest running of the high school activities. The invariable costume of white “middies” and skirts, and red lies, donned by the Farrarians is a well-known feature. The general assembly has been entertained not only by the Farrarians, but by the Girls' Glee Club of sixteen members, and by the Girls' and Boys’ Quar- tets arid the Mixed Quartet. The Farrarians have sung at such public perform- ances as the teachers' institute, the lvoeum lectures, the high school Christmas J j Vb- program, tin1 tableaux and the Junior musieale. They will also appear on the commencement program. Although the chorus was organized only last fall, it has shown its worth and we hope it has come to stay. THE ORCHESTRA. The school is fortunate enough to possess an orchestra. It has about fifteen members a net is led by Miss Castle, The orchestra has put in a great deal of hard work this year and has developed into an organization of which the school may well 3 o proud. We all enjoy the orchestra as it plays at all the school social affairs. The Seniors are especially thankful to them for the music they rendered at the Senior play last winter. Our High School Days To that magical isle, down the river of Time, The island of Long Ago, They are taking awray our high school days- - We turn now, and watch them go, While remembrance fondly plays. There are fragments of scraps of 1912, When lusty and young, W'e came As Freshmen, to tackle the scornful “ Sophs,M To begin to make us a name, To win the respect of the “Profs.'’ Down the river of Time, float the cherished names Of our teachers and athletes bold— Of Ketcham and James, oi' Logan and Wright Wise heads, with hearts of gold, Our leaders in learning and might. The thrill of winning in contest keen. The pride of victory, The uplift of friendship proven true, Enrich our memory, Inspire us to be and to do. And bo, as we wave a cheery goodbye, We classmates of 1916, To our high school days now floating away, While the mista roll in between, We bid their influence stay. —Harriet E. Hall, '16.

Lawrence Rerg—Evan Reely, Matt Pearce. Feb, 28.—At the city auditorium of Butte. Missoula entered the lists in the inter-high school debate series and rarne out with the small end of a two-to-ono decision. The question for discussion was the same as that used in the local tryout, namely: Resolved. That the legislative assembly of Montana should be superseded by a non-partisan elective commission of not more than eleven mem- bers, Missoula maintained the affirmative and was represented by Evan Reeley, Mat Pearce and Lawrence Berg. Butte upheld the negative, the team consisting of Emmett O’Neal, Tom Brockway and Elsie Conley. The judges were Rev. W. II. I-Iannum, president of the Presbyterian college at Deer Lodge; Professor W. F, Brewer of the English department of the State College at Bozeman, and Miss Lucy Carson of the English department of the State Normal at Dillon. The Missoula team showed up well both in the main speeches and in rebuttal. Their constructive argument was very well organized and was presented in a finished, convincing manner. Moreover, the team was exceedingly well balanced, it being difficult to say that any one of them was decidedly superior to the rest. On the other hand, it was verv evident that the strength of the Butte team lay principally in Tom Brockwav. Though not a polished speaker, he was prob- ably the most effective debater on the floor. He devoted much of his main speech, as well as all of his rebuttal to refutation of a kind that was exceedingly telling and forceful. Buttes victory was due rather to strategy than to superiority in argument. Instead f defending the present legislative system, Butte very adroitly pre- sented in the second speech an elaborate substitute reform consisting of a modified cabinet government for states. Another feature in the strategic presentation of the negative was a series of questions which were put to the affirmative. Some of them the affirmative answered, but others they did not. T V On the whole, the two sides were quite equally matched, and neither team can he said to have been much superior to the other. The Missoula High School should be proud of the work of her team. And in view of the fact that none of its members graduate this year, we can expect to have a debate trio second to none in the state next year.

Say, you girls haven’t any serious objection if I put my foot on it to hold it down, have you?77 Dot (impatiently)—“No! No! But please hurry. Hazel! (In the meantime the contents of two coffee pots boil over, the gravy scorches, and Lelia upsets the creamed peas, while the guests in the dining room are remarking about the deliciously-flavored turkey and Ida's grand biscuits). Time—2:15 P. M. (Guests are being served with the last course and the girls of Section T taking a hurried hand out in the kitchen). Gladys—Now, I7m going to fill up on plumb conserve. Mrs, Robertson told Hazel where there's a whole jar full. Chariot and Dot reciting Chaucer between hurried mouthfuls of creamed peas, potato, turkey, etc. I ’ll bet Miss Rich springs a test in Chaucer today. Agnes S.—“I'm glad Thanksgiving only comes once a year.71 Chorus—(f So—am—I. 1 Hazel (busy with a turkey bone and trying to translate German at the same time)—“Gee, this turkey's good—I know I’ll flunk Dutch test next period.” Time—2:30 P. M. Closing bell rings. Smoke suddenly clears away. Aprons are doubled up and flung into desks. Drawers slam. Dishes cease to rattle. Miss Jellum (smiling)—“Girls, your dinner was very successful. Every- thing tasted lovely. Tomorrow we will visit the gas plant.77 (Amen!) The Farrarians Sweetly sang the lark upon the bough When Spring had followed in drear Winter's wake, But Nature searched afar for means to make Some substitute, in which it might endow The lark's sweet trill arid yet the human guise Might it retain, and live to brighten life On earth; to lessen sin and strife, And then ’twas said, “The lark’s fame dies.” For, in its place, the club Farrarian Was formed, and here and there does reproduce The lark's sweet trill and yet the human guise Each fresh young voice sounds clear as clarion; In unison, cures sorrow and abuse And many and charming are the songs they've sung. —M. G., '16. Perverted Proverbs pi He that falls in love with himself, finds no rival. (Moral for Sophs). As ye sew so shall ye rip! (Let the Seniors verify). The eagles and the l S. coins are symbolic of their flight. (Ask the Juniors). Where there's a will there’s a won't, (Especially in stubborn Presides' heads). Some women’s heads are turned by flattery—some by peroxide. Generally speaking, women are—generally speaking. Twixt optimist and pessimist the difference is droll; The optimist sees the doughnut, the pessimist, the hole. The world is looking for a man who can do something, not for the man who can 14explain why he didn't do it. When two Senior friends part they should lock up each other's secrets and exchange the keys. Every Frosh, Soph, Junior and Senior should keep a fair-sized cemetery in which to burv the faults of his friends. � SOME PEOPLE’S IDEA OF HAPPINESS.

Who dearly loved the Seniors With thoughts sincere{?) and kind (?). It’s very true, they’ve shown it. Ah—such a class is hard to find. When prom day drew quite near to them. They stood as firm as a brick wall; ■ And ’stead of dropping far behind At once began to call: “Money! Money we must make Or ‘a little short7 we’ll fall.” And so these little Junior folks Got up a marvelous “spree,” Outclassed the Seniors two to one. They sure did go some—(Gee). And they’re the real true lively kids. It’s very plain to me! Ninety-Nine Reasons For Patronizing Our Advertisers 1. They make this annual possible. 2.
