I have stopped at Winnemucca where 1 hope to dispose of a large number of books to the wealthy itizens thereof. It being near election time, I attend a politi al rally at the American Theatre. The different candidates are introduced and ea '1 delivers a short oration. When the nominee for the responsible position of Night Watchman is announced who steps forward with a graceful bow, but my old friend Dewey Nelson. His eloquent speech in which he tells of his soptless past and of the hours spent in unceasing study of his lessons, holds the audience spellbound and the burst of applause that greets this brilliant oratory is an assurance of his being unanimously elected. After the speaking, a comedy is shown on the screen in whic h a group of chorus girls perform an artistic dance. But where have I seen that girl with the dark, flashing eyes before. She smiles and it dawns upon me that she is no other than Frances Stuart. The next day is Sunday, and of course I would not miss church, so I go and arrive just as a song is ended. The preacher begins his sermon and his earnes tones ring through the church. Not a smile disturbs the serious calm of his counten- ance as he tells of the evils caused by a woman’s tongue. His emphatic tones are like a voice of the past and when his sermon is nearly ended I recognize him as Clyde Brown. Being completely moved by his emotional speech. I get up and leave the church. I see a cozy little cottage where it may be my good fortune to sell a book. As I enter the gate a man rushes out the door and past me fast enough to enable him to escape being painfully injured by a rolling pin. It may not be altogether safe for me to attempt it but I bravely march up and knock. When the door opens I behold in the lady of the house another old school friend of mine. “Why Bertha Pearce, “I exclaim. “This is an unexpected pleasure.” She blushes and points to the ring on her finger, and says, “Not Bertha Pear 0 any longer, I am Mrs. Lyon now. My husband just left a few minutes ago.” I catch the afternoon train, for, not having such marvelous success disposing of my goods, I have decided to go on to San Francisco. As I sit watching the many different people in the car, a tall lady elegantly dressed and with a commanding air sweeps down the aisle. People stare at her and whifeper to each other. “Who is the lady?” I inquire of my nearest neighbor. “She is a wealthy widow,” is the reply. “She married a second cousin to Rocke- feller and at her husband’s death which was a release from suffering, she inherited all his fortune. Her maiden name was Marguerite Otis.” I gasp, it is such a shock and everything turns black while I seem to be falling. I can still faintly hear voices saying, “get Doctor Brown,” and then I lost all conscious- ness. When I again recover my disturbed senses I see the doctor who has restored me by throwing a cupful of water in my face, just leaving and recognize him as Gerald Brown. “Gracious, you gave me a fright,” says my neighbor. “It‘s lucky the famous doctor Brown was here. You know he is the famous physician that cured the King of p]ngland of the gout.” When I arrive in San Francisco, I go to see my brother, Gerald, who is a clerk in a shoe shop. Of course he is delighted to see me and to know I am soon to bo famous. But I am disappointed at the change in my once modest and well behaved brother for he flirts with every pretty girl that comes in the shop. Alas, if Ruby knew, her next book would probably be “A Blighted Romance.” With a renewed force of “nervous energy,” I am now soliciting my books. I enter the dressmaking establishment of a certain Madam Klinkenhammer, where many beautiful models are displaying as equally beautiful styles. I am dazzled at one of the models in a trailing gown and when I recover my vision I behold my old friend Ada Moore. Upon leaving this p’ace I think I will go back to the hotel and rest so I purchase a newspaper with which I entertain myself. While looking at the pictures my eyes are attracted to two familiar faces and in astonishment I read: “Miss Helen Adamson, an attractive young actress, has quit the stage and will play the part of leading lady to the famous movie actor, Altman Reil, who is said to surpass even Charlie Chaplin as a comedian.” How famous my friends are becoming and to think 1 can say, “I used to go to school with them.” While continuing my reading of the newspaper, I see the headlines: “The Two Sisters. Bernardine and Antonia Laueerica have just returned from a vbP to Spain where they have been guests of honor to the queen. They are, never- theless, delighted at their return to the United States where they spent heir school days.” As I take the elevator up to my room, I am amused at a man wlio is also in it, industriously peering over a book entitled, “How To Improve Your Memory.” When he leaves the elevator he never looks up but continues his industrious search of knowl- edge. The elevator boy laughs and says, “Gee, I wish I was studious like Mateo Legarza and maybe I could be a lawyer, too.” There are so many interesting things to see in San Francisco that I almost forget my c areer. I go to the movies and an quite surprised to see Charlie Garteiz starring in the new version of “A Dancing Fool” in which Wallace Reid once took the leading part. When passing a large building with a sign in front, “Vocal and Piano Lessons Taught at Fifty Cents a Lesson.” I think surely a wealthy person like that could afford to buy a book so I enter and am delighted to find Blanche Goldsworthy as the youthful instructor. I have left San Francisco and am traveling east in hopes that the inhabitants of that section have more of a desire for romantic novels than those of the west. In my travels I find Lois Thompson to be one of the instructors in an orphan school for children. Upon entering the office of a certain large law firm, I present my book to the private secretary, who, I discover to be Nieves Legarza. Who could picture my amazement when I entered a beauty parlor to find Emma Liotard and May Livingstone as the joint owners, one acting as hairdresser and the other as manicurist. They tell me that Therese Pasquale has acquired fame, and a small fortune, by writing a Geology book which is now used by students of that subject, the main feature of the text being its simple language and its diminutive size. Also that Eva Menicucci now spends her time and money in traveling and has already been around the world twice and is planning to go again; and that Ardclla Holman while studying languages in college so far surpassed her professor that he was discharged and Ardella given the position. My sojourn in the east so far has not been as' successful sa I hoped for, bur suddenly a bright idea comes to me. If I was only in New York I could sell an endless supply of books; but the problem is how to get there in a hurry. An aeroplane comes sailing through the air and lights within a few feet from me. “Passengers to New York,” shouts the aviator. I lose no time in preparing for my journey and am soon Ol on my way to the great city. The daring aviator is no other than James Moore so 1 do not feel afraid that the aeroplane will fall. Soon we are running a race with the clouds and the earth is like a tiny cup beneath us. Suddenly there is an explosion and the plane begins to fall. Down, down, we go, and in a few minutes my brilliant career will be ended. I feel afar and sitting up I look in astonishment around me. I am still in the familiar Senior Assembly, but I have fallen out of my desk and the other Seniors are laughing uproariously at my embarrassment. I remember now I was thinking of what awaited us in the years to come when this vision came to me in whi h the curtain of mystery has been raised and I have looked through the window of today and into the realm where lie the secrets of tin? future. ELLA HOLLOWAY ’23 CLASS WILL WE, THE Seniors of Humboldt County High School, do on this eighth day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-three, being of firm bodies and sound minds after convalescing from four solid years of high school drudgery, bequeath: First: To each member of the Faculty, we leave an all day sucker hoping that they will forget all the misery we may have given them.

Our “Glee was considered a smashing success for Presides. As Sophomores we surprised everyone. Five Sophs were on The Winnada staff, four hoys and two girls made the basket hall teams and five of our numlicr were initiated into the Block W. We must admit we made some record. Now we are Juniors and our only regret is that our numlier has diminished, hut we are proud of those from our class that are making Hi in tlm e years. Nearly all the Juniors are in the Seniors’ Operetta. We gave our “Prom” early last semester and as usual everyone had a good time.

The Sophs have not given their party as yet but are expecting to give it at some later date. The other classes consider the Sophs pepless but just wait, they won’t be able to see us for dust. We did win the cup at the Red Cross drive,' they were so surprised, but that’s just a starter. After winning the cup, they thought We deserved a dance so they had one in honor of us. We had a grand march led by President “Bud” Golds-worthy. and Vic e-President Gladys Peaive. After eating doughnuts and coffee, we went home after having a very enjoyable time, thanks to the Student Body. We are hoping that next year as Juniors, we will accomplish a great many more things than the previous year. Bertis Goldsworthy, Fred Ilolloway, Lyle Kramer. Robert Kennedy.

Those elected for the various offices wTere: President..................................... ....Clyde Brown Vice-President.................................. Bertha Pearce Secretary_______________________________________ Ada Moore Treasurer....................................... Evalyn Brown At this same meeting the Boys’ and Girls’ Athletic managers and the editors of the school paper and the Annual were elected. They were as follows: Boys’ Athletic Manager_________________________ Mateo Legarza Girls’ Athletic Manager......................... Therese Pasquale Editor of “The Humboldt”___________________ i.. May Livingstone Editor of “The Winnada”____________________________Frances Stuart The system used by this school of having regular meetings of the Student Bodv is of great advantage to both students and fatuity, as it brings them in closer touch with each other in regard to matters social, athletic and scholastic. In the meetings, the students are urged to make it a point to state their views in different matters brought before them and in this way aid in improving these different phases of school life. The Student Body dues, which are negligible as far as the individual is concerned, are one of the means of obtaining funds for various events in which the admission fee is not sufficient to cover expenses, and by levying this small sum from each person, an amount of money is always on hand for emergencies. Many interesting subjects are brought in Student Body meetings, which show that the students are alive to the possibilities and opportunities offered and make the most of them. On January 19, 1923, officers for the second semester were nominated. At the next meeting the nominees were voted on and the following were successful: President_______________________________________ Helen Adamson Vice-President......................... ------------Gerald Brown Secretary-----------------------------------------Therese Pasquale Treasurer-----------------------------------------Fred Defenbaugh The other officers elected for the second semester were: Boys’ Athletic Manager------------------------------ ..Joe Germain Girls’ Athletic Manager.----------------------- - Marguerite Otis Editor of “The Humboldt”------------------------------ Elmer Lyon Holding Student Body meetings is one of the most representative ways of carrying on school affairs and as practiced in Humboldt County High School is very beneficial to all.

After the track meet in May there will be a number of students initiated into this organization and will receive Block “W” pins. a� ROBERT BANKOFIER ’24 X l F=? I C This is the fourth year for our Dramatic Organization. We have not put on any plays as yet on account of being too busy with athletics to practice. But on April 19 the City Civic Club and the Senior Class of ’23 are going to put on an Operetta named “Polished Pebbles.” The Civic Club is then going to play a drama some time in May and the money from both the Operetta and play will be divided between the Senior Class and Civic Club. GERALD BROWN ’23 «COL ATBXS r ' THE first event, of the year was the hoys' initiation which was given on Friday night. September 8. As I am not a boy, of course I did not get to see it. so for further details the readers of this article will have to ask the boys. Anyway the next morning the Freshmen looked as though they had been treated “pretty good.” On Saturday night the Freshmen girls were initiated and I am sure they enjoyed this event very much. One thing we are sure they enjoyed were the “hot dogs and coffee.” Several clever stunts were carried out, but for full particulars you had bettor ask the Freshmen girls. The annual reception and dance for the new students, and faculty and parents was held on the 29th of September. All the alumni and former students were invited. Dancing was the main feature of the evening: Miss McMillan. Mrs. liucker and Walter Oase furnished the music. A delicious luncheon of apple pie and coffee was served at midnight and this ended a delightful evening. The Junior Prom was given Friday evening, October 81, in the auditorium and proved to be a wonderful success. As we entered the door we were amazed at the beauty of the scene. The hall was decorated in orange and black, representing Hallowe’en. Black cats and witches of paper were all over the wall. Dancing was the main feature of the evening. Paper horns were given away as souvenirs. A delicious lunch of sandwiches and coffee was served at midnight and the dance continued until two o’clock. The Juniors received many compliments on the success of the “Prom.” On Friday, October 13, the students had just an ordinary dance in the gymnasium. Miss McMillan and Mrs. Itucker were kind enough to furnish the music. Everyone seemed to have a delightful time. The Seniors, Juniors and Freshmen gave a party for the Sophomore class on De- cember 8. The reason being that they won the Red Cross Drive which the Hi took over. They were fortunate in getting more members than any of the other classes. The evening was spent in dancing from eight to twelve. Mrs. Rucker and Miss McMillan furnished the music. “Big Eats” were also a main feature. Everyone seemed to have plenty as the refreshment committee ordered double the amount of refreshments but they seemed to disappear somehow. A dance suggested by the Commercial English Class was given in the gymnasium on January 5. Mr. Reavely and Mr. Cavanagh furnished b the music. Everyone agreed that this was one of the peppiest dances of the year. After the basketball game Friday night. January 12, the first public dance given in the high school for some time, was given in the gym to raise money for expenses of the game. Everyone who attended the game were cordially invited to attend: Ewan's onhestra was kind enough to furnish the music. Doughnuts and coffee were served by the committee during the evening. Everyone did his share in making the dance a success and hoped that in the future we would be able to have more public dances. A “circus” was given on January 2( in honor of the new Freshmen who came over at the beginning of the semester. This took the place of an initiation for them. The circus was a great success, as all parts of it were there, including the side shows, hypnotizer from Africa, newspaper boys, freaks of the circus, Mother Goose Rhymes atted, mock wedding and many other things. Oh yes! even the “hot dogs” and “pink lemonade” were served. Oh ! we had a regular circus, and also regular fun. As this Annual goes to press before the rest of the year, we will not be able to write up about the other affairs fo the year, but we have several good entertainments and social affairs coming.

CeriuMn, Sarikof ior, (Je BOYS’ ATHLETICS The basketball season for this year, although an unsuccessful one in the standpoint of games, was on the whole a very good one. The fellows turned out for practice early in the year and kept practicing faithfully. In addition to the first and second teams, there was also a Sophomore boys’ squad coached by Mr. Fuller. The schedule of games this year was a good deal larger than any preceding year. The following were games played for the season: November 12, 1922—Battle Mountain vs. Winnemucca at Winnemucca. Battle Mountain wTere the victors by a score of 14-9. This was the first time we were ever defeated by the “Fighting Hill Quintet.” November 19, 1922—Battle Mountain vs. Winneniueea at Battle Mountain. We easily won this game by a score of 23-13. December 22, 1922—Elko vs. Winneniueea High School at Elko. We were defeated by Elko by the score of 38-16. December 23, 1922-Wells vs. H. C. H. S. at Wells. Our fellows walked a wav with this game with a score of 31-22. January 12, 1923—Elko vs. H. C. H. S. at Winneniueea. This was the best game of the season. The score at the end of the first half was 15-2 in favor of Elko. 11 the second half Winnemucca came back so fast that Elko was defeated by a score of 26-21. January 19, 1923—Lovelock vs. H. O. H. S. at Winnemucca. The Lovelockers won this game by a score of 15-6. February 1, 1923—Reno vs. H. C. H. S. at Reno. Reno defeated our boys by a dose store of 24-19. February 2, 1923—Carson City vs. H. C .H. S. at Carson City. The fellows wen defeated by the Carson City team by a score of 34-17. February 3, 1923—Sparks vs. H. C. H. S. at Sparks. After playing two hard games before going to Sparks, the team put up a good fight but was defeated, 26-12. February 10, 1923—Lovelock vs. H. C. H. S. at Lovelock. We were again defeated by Lovelock by a score of 33-27. February 17, 1923—Sparks vs. H. C. H. S. at Winnemucca. This was the final game before the tournament. We lost by a score of 28-18. Battle Mountain “Spark Plugs” vs. Sophomore boys at Battle Mountain. The Sophomores put up a good fight but were greatly outweighed. The final score was 22-30 in favor of Battle Mountain.

We were also defeated by Elko for the Junior cup by a score of 31-15. This ended the basketball season for the H. C. H. S. boys. Now that basketball season is over, the fellows who were not point men last year. have started track work. We have the same team that we had last year and also some new men that look promising. Tt looks as if we were going to have a better team than last year and if we do, there will be another cup alongside of the one w won last year. “JERKY” HOLLOWAY 23 GIRLS’ ATHLETICS Girls’ basketball practice started during the second week of October.

Our centers played an unusual good game which helped in winning by a big score of 30-10. Winnemueca met the Carson City girls on the second day of the tournament. Although Carson was confident of winning, our girls outplayed them all around. The game ended by all the “subs” playing and a final score of 15-30. Having won from the Capital City team, we were entitled to play Reno tin following day. All our girls played a good game and at the end of the first half, it looked as if we were going to win, the score being 9-7. During the entire game, Reno made eleven points alone on fouls. Reno put in four of their “subs” while we only put in one when our star guard, Bertha Pearce, got hurt. The final score was 22-17 in favor of Reno. Our girls who received honorable mention at the Tournament were Therese Pasquale, Elsie Summerfield and Frances Otis. A girls' track meet is to be held in Reno this year about the middle of May. The girls broad jump was out out and the javelin throw has taken its place. A girls meet is to be held with Lovelock and one with Battle Mountain during May.

THE BEST POLICY SUPPER was over at the Willow Creek ranch and the family had gathered around a blazing fireplace in the pleasant dining room. Outside the night was cold and the dogs howled at the big wintry moon that cast its light upon the newly fallen snow. The owner of Willow Creek sat in his favorite chair and puffed on a well-used corncob pipe while he seemed to be lost in meditation. Occasionally his glance fell on his pretty dark haired daughter Anne, as she sat reading a newspaper by the flickering firelight and a slight frown appeared upon his rigid features. Suddenly the girl folded the newspaper and cast it away -from her with an exasperated gesture. “It’s the same old story, Dad,’’ she exclaimed petulantly, “I can’t understand why people persist in takiiig something that doesn’t belong to them. This time it happens to be a New York banker’s son, James Russell. Quite a distinguished person evidently, but he wasn’t above stealing. He took several hundred dollars from the bank and he hasn’t been heard of since. Do you think he will profit by it though V Of course not,” she answered her own question. “Nobody ever does. It’s against the law. and besides it’s not a good policy.” The frown deepened on her father’s face and he spoke sharply. “Anne, don’t take such radical views of something you don’t understand. Stealing is all right if you can get away with it,” he ended carelessly. A quick flush mounted the girl’s face and she was about to reply when a knock at the kitchen door diverted their attention. Mr. Kingsley went to the door and came back in a few minutes. “It’s a hobo, Anne.” he spoke more gently than he had a few minutes before. “Would you mind fixing him something to eat? He is about famished and mother just went to bed.” “Of course not.” the younjg girl rose unreluctantly. “Better bring him in here where it’s warmer.” The tramp was about the most dejected looking person Anne ever had occasion to behold. His features were hidden by a grizzly beard, his hair had long l� een uncut and his clothes were ragged and dirty. He ravishly partook of the meal Anne prepared for him. When he finished he turned to tho rancher. “My friends,” he said, “is there anything I can do to return your hospitality?” Anne glanced up. Truly this was an interesting “hobo.” Mr. Kingsley winked at his daughter. “This is unusual, most of you fellows scorn to work but if you are willing, I'll give you a job here on the ranch tomorrow. ’ The tramp’s dark eyes flashed eagerly. “It's a go,” he exclaimed, but his voice shook with weakness. Anne went up the stairs to her room that night with a feeling of distress. Whet had occasioned her father’s remark about being honest? Everybody had always looked upon George Kingsley as a really honest man; but he had not been joking when In� said that stealing was all right if you could get away with it. Unable to sleep Anne sat by the window and looked out upon the clear, calm night. The stars twinkled with friendliness and the moon grinned as it sped along its accustomed path through the heavens. She sat long gazing upon the beauty of the night when suddenly she became aware of the figures of two men outlined against the white snow. One was riding a horse and the other on the ground, Anne was certain to be that of her father. They seemed to be holding an earnest conversation and after a little the man on the horse spurred his steed and galloped into the night. The next morning the sun was shining so brightly transferring the snow-dad world into a million sparkling diamonds that Anne’s spirits that had fallen so low the night before were completely elevated and she went gayl.v singing down to break- last. Upon entering the dining room she was surprised to see a young man seated by the fireplace, a complete stranger to her. When he observed her, he qubkly arose and offered her a chair. She tried to keep from staring and greeted him pleasantly. When she looked into his eyes she knew it was the tramp of the night before or rather their new hired man. “I declare,” she told her mother afterwards. “I believe he is the best looking young man I have ever seen although he looks like he has been having a hard time. Bur what a marvelous transformation. “The credit is due to your father's razor and hair clippers. But be careful, Anne, that you don’t fall in love with him.” And Mrs. Kingsley shook her finger at lieu- daughter. “If there is such a thing as love at first sight. I would say I am in love with him already,” laughed Anne. “But what is his name?” “He said to just call him Harry and of course your Dad nicknamed him ‘Hobo Harry.’ ” The young man knew’ comparatively little about a ranch at first but under Mr. Kingsley’s instruction he learned cpiickly and the rancher prided himself upon at last finding a hired man who had no traits of laziness. Harry apd Anne became the best of friends and had many gay times together. He took her to the dances and parties that were given in the valley that winter and Anne found herself the envy of the other gifls. But a large portion of Anne’s gayety wTas forced for underneath it all. her father’s mysterious actions were a source of worry to her, although nobody else seem'd to notice it. Since he had engaged Harry to work he was gone a good part of the time and Anne often saw7 the mysterious rider talking with him when the rest of the' household was wrapped in slumber. And then with the coming of spring came the crisis. A rancher by the name of Gessler had discovered that a number of his cattle had disappeared and it soon became the curiosity of the country to know7 who the thieves were. One afternoon wiiile enjoying a ride on her favorite pony. Anne stopped on the trail near a patch of Cottonwood trees and looked down at the green, winding ranches a'A lying in the valley between the mountains. The murmuring of a brook as it ran gayly over the rocks along it’s course down the mountainside and the gay twittering of birds filled the air with the melody that whispered promise of love. The sun sinking into its golden bed cast its fading rays over the earth and tinted the blue of a spring sky with dainty changeable colors. “What a peaceful world it is,” thought Anne as she decided to wait and ride home with Harry when he came home from work, along that trail. Suddenly she heard the sound of voices elevated in angry discussion coming from behind a grove of rosebushes. When she heard her father’s voice she rode closer a faint feeling taking possession of her. “I know I haven’t any evidence on you.” came in sarcastic tones. You did a good job and got away with it. all right. But 1 can tell a guilty man if he has had an honest reputation and you George Kingsley are a low-down thief. Deny it and add a lie to your other virtues. There was no answer and silence reijgned except for the loud beating of hearts. “I knew it, well, I will rid the world of one dishonest man. Take that.” The report of a gun resounded through the canyon followed by a woman’s scream. The clattering of hoofs down the trail echoed through the still evening and once more silence held dominion. The days that followed were ones of worry and trouble at the Willow Creek ranth. For the owner lay in the grim valley between life and death. From his de- lirious ravings Anne learned the story of his dishonesty. In conspiracy with an ex- perienced cattle thief who was secretly lurking among the mountains, he had changed the brands on Gessler’s cattle and then sold them. Gessler, after the shooting, had sold his ranch and left the country making no at- tempt to convict the thieves. But when the melancholy days drew nigh and the meadows lay bare and brown, and the flowers wearily drooped their heads despairing of their faded beauty it be- came known that George Kingsley was on the road to recovery. Anne in her favorite place by the cottonwoods was again watching the sunset. Except for a li 1 tie aching spot in her heart she was perfectly happy. Of late Harry liad been cold and distant and she wondered if it was merely a delusion that she thought he loved her. If he did love her he had been a long time in telling her so. the girl reflected. A familiar figure coming up the trail caused her heart to bound. It was Harry, yet a serious expression on his face made him look like a different person. “Anne,” he said taking her hand in his. I have come to say good-bye.” Good-bye, Oh! Harry.” “Yes, I will tell you why I am going. You probably have read about James Russell a banker’s son robbing his father’s bank. Well, this brainless boy had been raised to be a spendthrift and belonged to a wild bunch in New York. When his father suddenly shut down on his allowance he began to borrow money and was soon deeply in debt. When he was threatened with arrest and his father refused him money there was one chance left. He offered to go to wrk in the bank and his father, thinking he meant to settle down and not knowing his real intentions, was delighted with the idea. The first day he stole all the money he needed, paid his debts and then beat it for the West. He hoboed his way across the continent and in the place where he learned to he a man there he also found in a dark haired girl the Partner of his Heart. “You have probably guessed by this time that I am James Russell. My father has forgiven me and written for me to come back to New York on a visit. I wanted you to marry me and come too, but I have seen how you hate dishonesty. I know you wuld never marry a thief. I am going to leave Monday, so it s good-bye, dear. He gave her a last farewell look but saw she had turned away from him and seemed to be shaken with sobs. He started down the trail when he heard his name called. “Mr. Russell.” He turned to see the girl coming toward him. Anne tried to keep a sober face while she said archly. “Mr. Russell if we are going to leave Monday, shall we be married to-morrow?” His face lit with delight and he shouted joyfully. “Anne, do you really mean it? ’ Sometime later they went to tell her parents. Her father sitting on the porch puffing his pipe, looked like himself again. When lie heard their plans he was de- lighted. “Harry,” he said. “You’re getting a mighty fine little girl. Be good to her and always remember, my boy, that Honesty is the Best Policy.” EULA HOLLOWAY ’23 ‘ } COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT IN preparing an outline of the work done in the Commercial Department of the Humboldt County High School for this number of the Annual, it has seemed to me well to review in some detail some of the changes made in the commercial work and some other changes contemplated to the end that the commercial department of the Humboldt County High School may be made just as efficient and practical as it is possible to make it. Along with studies that are essentially commercial in their scope, other studies are offered which are more general but which accomplish the purpose of making tlm student's high school training as thorough as possible. In this course as in all others offered in the high school, three years of English as well as a certain amount of mathematics is made compulsory. The work essentially commercial, that is offered is commercial geography, commercial law, penmanship and spelling, commerc ial arithmetic , bookkeeping, typewriting, stenography, office practice and commercial English. In order to offer the most thorough training possible the commercial geography and the commercial law have been changed from half credit to full credit units. It has not seemed possible to give all that can be advantageously offered in these two courses by half year presentation. Last year I instituted a separate class in office practice with a half unit credit. This year that course has been amplified by both Mr. Scott and Mrs. Rucker and designated as a secretarial course. In stenography, bookkeeping and typewriting, each, two years of work are offered. It is of interest to note some of the work that is being done by some of the classes in the e ommercial department. The various members of the typing classes point with pride to the medals for speed and accuracy that they have won. and it is by this means that much of the c lass interest is aroused and maintained. The comme r- cial English c lass has also given much valuable assistance in preparing “The Exchange” —a pamplile t that has been sent out to the Nevada commercial teachers at irregular intervals. As far as can be learned, the commercial department of this high school is the largest and best equipped in the state and it is felt that there is no need for pupils of Humboldt County High School to have the attitude that after completing high sc hool they must go to business college in order to perfect their training. There is no high school in the state nor business college between Salt Lake City and San Francisco offering as complete and thorough general commercial work as may be had in the Humboldt County High School. We feel that it must, be so, in justice to the pupils who attend the high school and desire a commercial training. With these ideals ever in mind, every effort is being made that the commercial work offered in the high school may be the best possible and may fill such a place, that no student having once gone through this commercial department shall find it necessary to go elsewiiere for further commercial training. KARL W. MITCHELL, Instructor Commercial Department SHOP NOTES There is a considerable increase in number of students this year due to the fact that our shop is the only one of its kind in Nevada, and to the fact that the people of the community have a high interest in it. We find it necessary and important for us to do practical jobs and we have been doing this work very satisfactorily for the people for whom we work. We hope with the money which the officers derive from selling bonds, to the value of $18,000, we will have a shop that will do us until the end of high school days. There is no doubt that we need it. because we have enough students and machinery to occupy twice the present available space. The equipment which we have now consists of three thirteen-inch South Bend lathes, one fifteen-inch shaper, one universal grinder, one tool post grinder, a power hacksaw, a sensitive drill press and a Buffalo forge. And also a tool room which can be improved but little. With this equipment we find we can supply the people who have jobs with the best of mechanical accuracy. We have expected a milling machine for the last two years but we feel we will have it next year to complete our mechanical equipment of machines. This year has been a good year for practical jobs and we have had the opportunity to show what can be due in this line by reboring engine blocks, rebabbiting connecting rods, fitting and making piston pins and in other times between larger jobs, we have made machinist hammers, pins, punch sets, combination screw drivers and other things which are necessary for the shop.
