It is our aim to truly repre- sent our school and to stand for the principles of education that are continually held before us. EL SERRANO frfhe Nlountaineerl is truly a mountaineer, or pioneer in its work of representing the mission of our school in train- ing men and women to be workers in the cause of God. It is the aim of every student in La Sierra to better serve his Maker by being a true Friend to Man, and it is the purpose of this annual to uphold this aim. -P.

Mc DOWELL As a Senior class we've gathered here To greet the friends we love, And ask upon our future lives A blessing from above. To-night we have not reached our goal: We'w'e only just begun. The hardest battles of our lives Must yet be fought and won. XVe'll keep our pledge of Loyal Service Enshrined in every heart, As in the sorrows of mankind We'll always bear a part. And thus to him we'll ever be A true and ready friendg No matter who, no matter where, A helping hand we'll lend. We wish to show our gratitude For all the loving deeds, That father kind and mother dear Have done to fill our needs. We thank our teachers one and all For lessons they have taught, And for the work that day by day In kindness they have wrought. We come to our commencement hour Beneath the silver and blue, And pledge, by the help of heaven's power Forever to be true To the standards that our school holds dear The principles of truth, In service to the God we fear We give the strength of youth. So now, we say our last farewell And leave each pioneer, Cur thoughts will here forever dwell With the school we hold so dear. But we trust in the God of all great love, That when our journey's o'er, We shall meet each one in courts above- The class of twenty-four. T.. nnfnn- ,-nu n EIGHTEE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS GLENN MARTIN Friends, parents, teachers, and students, we welcome you here to-night. Our hearts are filled with pleasure as we realize it is your faith and interest in us that have brought you here. It is only fitting at this time to express as much as possible the feeling we cherish in our hearts as we come to the close of our school days at La Sierra. To our parents who were our first teachers and who have labored, sacrificed and prayed through all these years to make this hour possible, we give our sincerest appreciation. To the members of the faculty we extend our thanks and gratitude for the many hours of service spent in our behalf, and for the little deeds of kindness strewn along our way. We realize that they have not come here to seek fame or money, but in unselfish service for the Master. Above all we thank the God of this great universe for placing within our grasp the opportunity for a Christian education. Two years ago we came to an unfinished school, a school without a name and without a reputation, but with a brilliant and promising future. La Sierra was founded upon the highest ideals and principles of Christian training and we came with a determination to help her maintain that standard as long as time shall last. During those early days we passed through many difficult experiences which loomed up in our minds as the worst of hard- ships. For a time we ate and studied by candlelight: our only source of heat was the sung and the floor, our place of rest at night. At times those pioneer experiences seemed discouraging, but they are long since past and we look back upon them as the happiest moments of our school days. The trials and NINETEEN inconveniences of those days put into our characters the quality of endurance and the uncomplaining spirit which come only to those who have learned to pioneer. Now as we look back upon our joys and sorrows, achievements gained, friendships formed, and lessons learned, what has it all meant and why have these teachers and loved ones sacrificed to keep us here? Has it been for the ultimate purpose of receiving a diploma? Vlfe answer Hnolu Such an ambition would be far from the ideal of true success. It has been that we might receive a preparation to fit us for the lVlaster's service, and make each one a better friend to man. We are finishing our academic education, so why do we speak of to-night as Ucommencementn? It is true we are leaving La Sierra, but we are commencing in a greater school-the school of life. This school will greatly differ from the one we have just finished. Here our lessons have been learned from books and practice, under the guidance of faithful teachers, but in the school of life each lesson must be learned through real experience. Character building has been compared to the construction of a temple. If we have laid a foundation of Christian devotion and have made Christ our chief cornerstone, putting in each successive step with care and painstaking, we will not only be of service to man, but will meet with the approval of Cod. Cn the other hand, if we have been careless and have neglected to reach perfection in every instance, though unnoticed now. when storms of strife come, our characters will fall into eternal ruin. The cares of this world are but for a moment. the vexations of life are few compared to the great importance of things eternal. And now as we sail forth upon life's great ocean, we have placed our aim high, our determination steadfast, and service to man and C-ocl foremost in our hearts and minds. The world is rushing on to its destruction, heedless of its impending danger. Wie must face conditions and needs that have never arisen before. The greatest call to-day is for youth who will consecrate them- selves to Cod and live wholly to win souls for Him. To-night we wish to answer that call, as long as life shall last we will surrender ourselves ancl our lives in service to God and to our fellow men. It is our determination to so learn the lessons in this school of life that when we complete the great commence- ment in the school of the hereafter, our standing will reach per- fection and our lives will be molded after the pattern of the Divine Teacher. ln earthly preparation for that time we aim to follow in the footsteps of that one who was the greatest friend to man. Could we draw back the curtain. That surrounds each others' lives, See the hidden motive for the action, We woulcln't be so quick to criticize. Where we think we see but evil, We could see a lot of good, We would love each other better If we only understoodf' A FRIEND TO MAN MAUR1NE NETHERY Unspiralion received from S. W. Foss's The House by the Side of the Road , There are high born men who live beyond The reach of the common touch, Who will not see the countless throng And have no thoughts for suchg Who scorn when others ask a part In their heaven scaling plan, But I shall fill some lower place And be a friend to man. There's the man who shines like a morning star, Whose ever glorious name ls written on standard, banner and flag And carried aloft by fame. But I would let the star-treacler be And the great soar high as he can. I'll live next door to some helpless soul And be a friend to man. I'll earnestly seek in the dark and in the gloom For the souls that are weary and sad. I'll weep with them as they weep in their pain, Then comfort and make them glad. TWENTY I'll journey on to mountain heights Or over the desert stran' With a heart all love and sympathy I'll be a friend to man. Then I'll turn from them that are sick and sad To those who press their way With joy in their hearts and a song on their lips I'll laugh with them and be gayg I'll cheer with the first when the fight they've won: And join in their every plan. I know there's nothing better to do Than being a friend to man. Then let others climb to heights of fame, And joy in standing alone, I'll walk with the crowd and learn with them What the high have never knowng I'll serve alway in some humble spot As loyally as I can, I'll be true blue in this work of life And be a friend to man. Boys flying kites haul in their white winged birds. You can't do that when you're flying words. Thoughts unexpressed may sometimes fall back dead, But God Himself can't stop them when they're said. -Will Carleton.

OUR SENIOR PICNIC VERNA GODDARD Patter. patter, patter, was the first sound that greeted Senior ears as the hands of the clock pointed to three that Sunday morning in April. The evening before fin spite of threatening weather, skeptical faculty and marauding Juniorsj, sandwiches, salads, cakes and other goodies had been carefully prepared, packed and guarded by enthusiastic Seniors and faithful Soph- omores. And when those of us who had stolen a few hours of sleep awoke to the sound of rain, there were some misgivings as to whether or not our planning and labor had all been in vain. After considerable trouble and anxiety, each had found his place in the big truck or on the trailer and we were off-Iaughfng, shouting and waving our pom-poms, made especially for the oc- casion. Three hours of riding brought us to the snow, and soon some of us felt icy rivulets beginning to trickle down our spines as a result of the generous handfuls of that chilly substance aimed at our faces. By this time the sun was shining, and as the truck made rather slow progress up lfill, the more energetic of the crowd ran on ahead. catching on for a short ride when out of breath. Vve continued cur journey for a short distance beyond Forest Home, and then all clmbed out and built a camp fire on a bare spot of earth Our class teachers evidently considered it their duty to see that we had clean faces for dinner, whereupon a general campaign of face-washing ensued. No one had brought a delicate appetite with him, and as many of us had had no breakfast, the call to dinner met with hearty response. I-low good everything tasted up there beneath the blue sky, the snow-capped mountains rising on either side of us, with fleecy clouds tumbling about their peaks! We couldn't help wishing that we might transplant a few of the beautiful trees to the hills at La Sierra. After dinner we began to climb, snowballing each other as we went, and at times wading in snow above our knees. Some of the boys had brought sleds, but they were a doubtful success as trees and rocks are seldom conducive to good coasting. Two hours later we returned to camp with tired bodies and wet feet. Our chauffeur had a hot fire going, anticipating our needs. While trying to dry our shoes, our class advisors with our chauffeur told us several amusing stories, taken chiefly from their own life histories. Our class prophecy was also read, and after a light lunch of hot cocoa and cookies, we piled into the truck and started home, stopping at Forest I-Iome to see the fish hatch- ery. To cap the climax, the sky clouded over, the rain soon began to pour, and we were glad to have the canvas top put up over our heads. We reached the Academy about 7:30, very tired ind sun-burned, but happy, having had a thoroughly enjoyable ay.

We have set our faces westward, with our hearts as true as steely We've at last made our advances to a graduation year. Like the ships that are in danger Of the angry waves at sea, We must plough through foaming billows and the gale, But we'll not give up the battle till the victory's duly won, And we'll overcome the foe named Fail. Then we'll sail for the home port To the haven of our peace? Safe from storms and winds that oft the hearth oppress. We shall know life's many lessons and we'll anchor at the shore With the prize of endless ages-the trophy of Success. JOYS OF BEING A JUNIOR MARY LEWIS juniors! Yes, juniors at last, after a struggle of three years. Gur way has been through deep English books and incompre- hensible histories, with here and there a dash of horrible mathe- matics, nights of endless study when the outdoors is magically calling us to flee from our tasks: yes, and days, too, when that TWENTY-NINE contagious disease, Spring Fever, stealthily scatters its germs among the students and its poor victims clamor for vacation. lVleantime, the teachers spend many of their precious moments endeavoring to find some means to induce the sluggish minds to study. Even though these trials are remembered, we can now laugh at the exasperated Freshman when he is heard complaining of his hard studies, and can saucily toss our heads when the Sophomores remind us of when we were struggling with book- keeping or physiology, two of those annoying required subjects which now we look at with the satisfaction of their being com- pleted. Oh, surely we have some hard studies, but with these comes the pleasure of delving into the depths of English and American literature, searching out the truths in our denominational history, and study of the testimonies. With these comes the subject noted among Juniors as the greatest subject in developing the mind in the lines of deep thinking: namely, Espanol. We have the thrill of organizing into a class for the first time in our experience for the purpose of entertaining and helping the Seniors through one of the greatest milestones in their education. The class spirit reigns supreme and the interest deepens as the time of graduation draws near, and the juniors do all they can to make the memories of their last days at L. S. A. those long lo be remembered. The event draws our minds to the future when next year we will be the Seniors of '25 and will go out from here continuing to work toward our aim in life, whatever it may be, and still striving for the greatest aim of a higher education in the school above. LA SIERRA ACADEMY IRENE WAQAR Pause a moment, and let me endeavor to paint for you a beautiful scene: not with gorgeous colors upon an artist's canvas, but a fadeless picture that will be stored away in the wondrous art gallery of your own mind. ln your imagination, picture a little valley enclosed entirely within a circle of mountains-those to the north and south, high, snowclacl peaks rising toward the sky. A little town lies in this valley. Then looking over rolling fields to the rugged hills to- ward the west, you see three large stucco buildings on the gentle slope at the foot of the hills. This is l..a Sierra Academy. Doubtless you would be interested in seeing more of the academy itself, so come with me for a walk around this rapidly growing school. The building in the center is the administration building, which is now almost completed. The buildings on each side of it, which are exactly alike, are the girls' and the boys' dormitories. A wide hall runs the entire length of the second floor of the dormitories with the rooms along each side. All the rooms are very comfortable and homelike, with white plastered walls, hardwood floors, and practically all have three large win- dows in them. Returning to the campus, we see wide gravel walks between the buildings and extending down to the road where ragged robin rose bushes grow. Before many more days have passed, a large lawn will reach from the front of the buildings down to the road. Trees and shrubs are being planted in various parts of the campus. A short distance in the back of the girls' dor- mitory stands a little white building half hidden by drooping pepper trees. This is the school laundry. As you stand on the porch of the Administration building and look down toward the valley, you can see the fields of cool, green alfalfa, the strawberry patch, the young fruit trees, the new barn, and other evidences of the rapid growth of the school, and also of the practical work that the students of La Sierra are learning which will fit them for a greater work as students in the great school of life. THORNS AND ROSES RUTH WHITESELI.. Une purple misty day, when the clouds were grey and lower- ing, it seemed to Jane that she was entirely shut away from the world. She was a girl of wonderfully high ambitions. Life seemed to her as an object of which she must make some- thing, yet she found when she launched out into the great tide of life, it meant more to her than she had ever dreamed. She had planned a wonderful career which was suddenly thwarted by the hand of misfortune. This seemed more than she could bear, but she tried to be brave. On this particular afternoon, ,lane's mother sat nearby sewing, all the while enter- taining thoughts of success for her daughter. It was with a voice very impatient that Jane said, O what is there in life for me? Her mother paused, then looking tenderly into her daughter's dark eyes said, Jane there are hopes, ideals, love, sadness, and uncertaintiesf' Yes I'm sure the latter applies to me all right, sighed jane. If one could, Jane, he would always seek the path of roses, THIRTY it is the ideal way. There are certain principles, however, that come in every successful life. These principles are truth, love, zeal, and industry. They reach out into the unseen. They en- able one to walk, and fight in the dark, and at last to come out victorious, for the triumphant life is the life of high ideals. jane sat quite still with her own thoughts and ambitions. Yes, she wanted to make a success of life,-but how? Her mother kept on with her work. None knew better than she that there was a fight to come in .Iane's heart. Jane would find thorns, and cross many canyons of grief, before she could fully realize that the path of life is amidst thorns and roses. After a long silence it was with a voice very bitter that she said, Yes, life is far too short for what I have hoped to accom- plish. I have wished for a path strewn with roses, but I find it is not within my reach. I must plant my own roses if I wish to pluck them. Looking fearlessly into her eyes, her mother answered her wistfully, Jane, you have the seeds, why not plant them? They will be the most beautiful and enduring. The conversation was interrupted by a caller. It proved to be the old minister who had come to their house many times be- fore. The conversation drifted from one subject to another until he finally mentioned The life that counts, illustrating its value with many instances of successful lives, and the work each had accomplished. After the minister left, Jane had much to think of. She did not continue the conversation with her mother, but busied herself in the kitchen. The minister had pictured success in a different light than she had ever seen it before. Her father came home in the evening, rather out of sorts, and T H I R T Y-O N E Bud insistently teased the cat till all was confusion. Jane grew impatient as usual, slammed the door and went upstairs to her room, not waiting for supper. She sat by the window buried in her thoughts. There was a gorgeous sight before her,-the pow- erful sun had not finished painting the sky with his dashing brush, and the great full moon was just coming up over the low purple hill, waiting for even to come, so as to radiate a deeper light. Jane picked up a book of quotations from Emerson, thinking to find something to win her side of success. Upon opening the book the first quotation which met her glance read: We get out of life exactly what we put into it. This thought lingered with her. Something must be planted before we could reap re- sults. What could she plant? She truly wanted to reap a path of roses, because she had found so many thorns. Her mother came in at this moment, and seeing a troubled look on Jane's face, asked her what the trouble was. Jane explained to her that she was thinking what seeds to choose that would produce a path of roses. not only for herself, but for others. l-ler mother was silent for a moment and then said thoughtfully, The seeds of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, long- suffering, and self control. These can grow in anyone's heart, and drive out the thorns. jane was silent, then with trembling lips said, None of those seeds are found in my heart. Someday they will bloom, Jane, and flood your heart with happiness, even as the roses bloom after sunshine and shower. Others will feel your success, and the God above will look down and approve. ln after years Jane often remarked that her service to others began on the day when she was made to see what true success really amounted to.

FM- x THIRTY-FOUR THIRTY LA SIERRA Bessie i. sMiTH Nestled down among the foothills, Where some days are warm, some cool, Where the wind cloth whisper softly, Is the La Sierra School. To the left a row of gum trees Stand like sentinels straight and high: In the distance snow capped mountains Rise into the azure sky. In the school there are the young folks Filled with sunshine, mirth and song, Now and then a burst of laughter Ripples down the halls so long. Day by day we to the class rooms Make our way, though warm or cool, For we study here preparing For a place beyond the school. There are darkened souls beyond us Calling for the light to come. Can we leave them groping, waiting? Ah! Our work has scarce begun. We will go to heathen darkness, Willing, ready, heart and hand, Tell them of our living Saviour, And the nearness of the end. IVE STILL ACHIEVINC., STILL PURSUING Bessie i. sMiTH We, the Sophomores of 1924, have begun to realize that life is not an empty dream. As we look back over the trails we have conquered, our hearts are made glad. We are inspired by the words in the Psalm of Life, from Longfellow: Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal. The star of hope shines brightly in our eastern horizon. Above us we see the Juniors and still higher the smiling faces of the Seniors. Beyond them we see more school work, hard tasks, un- conquered difficulties, but beyond that, hidden in the thick mist of time we see ourselves in some far away mission field telling the story of Jesus, or going from house to house in Bible work. Some look forward to the ministry, some to selling our books and placing literature in the homes of the people. Some want to be doctors or nurses to minister to the sick and suffering. Some see themselves in conference offices as workers and stenographers, Our hearts are strong and brave, but in our own strength we could not reach the dizzy heights of success. We have a con- stant Guide and Companion who sticketh closer than a brother. I-le is interested in every joy and sorrow of our school life. If we are willing I-le will mold us to fit the place He has for us in His great plan. By His help we want to act so that each to-mor- row will find us farther than to-day. The secret of success is constancy of purpose. The lives of great men who have gone before remind us that it is possible to make our lives sublime. As we climb over the stones we are encouraged to think they have gone before us: our Guide tells us He went over the path first. Wie hope that we can leave some footprints in the sands of time that will en- courage some wayworn traveler, who may come after us, to take STILL ACHIEVING, STILL PURSUINCY' heart again.

IIVIPRESSIONS OF A FRESHMAN LOUIS HENNIC Never shall I forget as long as I live that Sunday evening as I watched the family disappear over the hill in the cloud of dust. A strange feeling of Ionesomeness came over me as I dropped down on my trunk and a lump came up in my throat that would hardly stay down. The sun was just going down in all its glory and it made me think of the night before and I wondered what all my friends were doing. This was my first experience so far away from home. Suddenly I was awakened from my reverie by the clanging of a big gong and a sudden rush of seventy or eighty boys. I won- dered what had happened and allowed myself to be carried along with the crowd. Every one seemed so bent on reaching the same destination that I was all fired to see a fire. Imagine my surprise when I was informed it was only supper time and we were on the way to the dining room. I followed the boys in and while they were finding their places at their tables I was near the door waiting nervously on one foot and then the other. Before waiting long a cheerful little lady came over and asked, Are you a new boy? I immediately answered affirmatively and was taken to a new table where I was introduced to the host and hostess. I was given my permanent place on the left of the host, who was a sober- faced boy of about my own age. I soon found, however, he was not as sober as he looked. The blessing was said while we remained standing and then the pleasant-faced lady I first met stepped forth and gave us a Iittle talk on proper conduct in the dining room. We then marched to the serving counter where everything looked so tempting. Yes, I must have some of this, and I'll try some of that, it looks so good, I was saying and before I was through my tray was nearly running over. We all arrived safely at our table and l began to think I was going to enjoy my stay here. As I had been nominated waiter of our table, the hostess asked me to get her a spoon, to which I gladly responded. When l returned some one proposed a water drinking contest. My glass was full and the others quickly filled theirs. Here is where I cover myself with glory, I thought, as I had always been a fast drinker. At the word go, I took one long swallow. What a taste! VVas that water? I looked at the remainder in the glass and then at my newly acquired friends. They had salted my water. I soon found myself joined in laughing with the rest of the table as the taste began to leave my mouth. I was an initiated member of table number eight, the jolliest of La Sierra dining room. The next day I became better acquainted with all of the bells that regulated our daily routine. However, I have grown to enjoy them and I know I will miss those bells on May 28. A wide-spreading, hopeful disposition is the best umbrella for this vale of tears.-Howells. Vlfho will not mercy unto others show, l-low can he mercy exer hope to have.-Spencer. A man that is young in years may be old in hours if he has lost no time.-Bacon. STRAWBERRIES AUDREY LEA It was a beautiful sunny morning at La Sierra and the red strawberries were peeking out from under the green leaves all over the patch. Their fat sides fairly glistened in the sun, in- viting the crew of girls, who were the pickers, to come forth to pick them. It's certainly wonderful to pick strawberries-I mean to eat them, isn't it? said a girl who was gorging herself on the delicious fruit. The berries are truly wonderful, announced another girl, trying to stand up, but her back and legs were so stiff that it seemed easier to sit down. In spite of this, the girls all agreed that the fruit was well worth the time and trouble. The delicious short cake they would have the following day for dinner would make them forget all their aches and pains. All at once one of the girls began to pick and put berries into her pan very fast. The others followed her example, for here came the assistant farm superintendent, who had given them strict orders not to eat any, but it was such a temptation, who could resist! The berries were all picked and taken to the kitchen. An announcement was made at supper that help would be needed immediately after worship to stem the strawberries. As a result ten or twelve boys and girls reported, and the berries were stemmed amid much laughter and fun. The following day the students of La Sierra feasted on strawberry short cake. This is a small illustration of the many phases of industrial work which are energetcally carried forward and made to pros- per by the students of La Sierra. FORTY A J e . J -1 it Eyli nllllltfrlif f e JA!-L f Eli iililtg 'X et t cz 1 .1 ,i ' t c jff gi tfcp if 4 --,-' - THE OPEN DOOR Issac Disraeli has described literature as the avenue to glory and Chaucer acclaims it the way to all good learning. Every student in the school of life holds within his soul the sleeping embers of higher ideals, greater ambitions, and a wider service. These motives lie dormant within hfm until he finds the door that admits him to the field of self expression and the world of good literature. When this discovery is made he be- comes aware of the two great purposes of literature. These are, according to De Quincey, to teach the truth and to move to ac- tion, and it is his opportunity first to learn and second to profit by the knowledge gained. Such is the burden of every class which has for its study the subject of English. A student entering the ninth grade finds himself confronted with the study of composition, which at first causes him to fret a bit over the difficulty of applying correct grammatical usage, and which later enables hm to write business letters with ease, personal letters with enjoyment, and newspaper articles with a degree of accuracy. Thus the course is fnished and the subject of Rhetoric is pursued with the idea of eitended practice in the FORTY-ONE expression of one's thoughts and inspirations and in the culivat- ing of a clear and forceful style. In the third or fourth year the student approaches the study of literature with a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction. It is in this field that he meets the great men of past ages, as- smilates their inspirations and ideals, and aims to cultivate their power of opinion and self expression. Here, too, he learns to spurn the men, who, because of weak wills and wrong guiding influences, have failed to reach the zenith of their capabilities. The knowing of these great men gives the student the desire to peruse the pages of their written thought and seek out the ma- terial conducive to a broader and higher mental, spiritual, and moral life. As the student wanders along he enters the realm of poetry and there discovers the fountain of deepest feeling,-the overflow of the human heart which is felt and expressed the same the world 'round and ages through. Whittiei', in memory. carries hfm back to hs early chldhood with the lines: Blessngs on thee little man, Barefoot boy with cheeks of tan! lt'ith thy turned up pantaloons. Any thy merry whistled tunes. lVith thy red lips redder still Kissed by strawberries on the rill. At the turn of a page he is awakened from this reverie by the challenge Scott makes to his patriotism: Breathes there a man with soul so dead lt'ho never to himself has said: This is my own, my native land? and to this he replies in the words of Van Dyke: Oh it's home again and home again, America for me, I want a ship that's westward bound to plough the rolling sea, To the blessed land of room enough beyond the ocean bars, lVhere the air is full of sunlight and the flag is full of stars. In return for the privilege of so great a country he is prompted to say with Foss: Let me live in a house by the side of the road and be a friend to man. The fire of determination grips the whole being as the sug- gestion comes from Kipling: If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you 56 56 if- 56 55 H4 Yours is the earth and all that's in it. Again the heart is lifted in silent devotion at a glimpse of Tennyson's purity of heart portrayed in these lines: For though from out the bourne of time and place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face ll hen I have crossed the bar. And finally as the day is done and night comes on untold comfort is found in repeating with Longfellow: And the cares that infest the day Shall fold their tents like the Arabs And as silently steal away. So the student wanders on in this expansive field, scaling great- er heights and depths of feeling through the guidance of the master thinkers of all ages. The one hundred and forty students enrolled in the English Department at La Sierra Academy have taken a deep interest in availing themselves of the opportunity of entering the open door of self expression and resvice to be gained through the study of English, ever keeping in mind the ultimate thought of prepara- tion for the lVlaster's service.-I. S. SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS oscAR GERHART Say, Harold, do you have those geometry theorems for this afternoon? Yes, like fun. How about studying them out together? All right. Come on into my room. Two heads are better than one, anyway, they tell us. Accordingly the two boys entered the room, closed the door, and settled down to talking about their lessons, as a sort of pre- lude to studying the theorems. Geometry is about as hard as algebra was last year, one commented. It is, sure enough. But it will come in handy when you have to stake out your mission grounds in South America. Well, that's true, too, I guess. ul suppose, Harold continued, that you would rather FORTY-TWO disect frogs or guinea-pigs, though I wonder what good a knowledge of the anatomy of brutes is going to do a person. A great deal. For one thing, you can see something of the wisdom of the Creator who made them, and for another thing, it will prove a great help to you folks who are planning to take the medical course. Perhaps so, but physiology is better adapted for that pur- pose, I should think. There you learn directly about the human body and its structure. I think that is the most interesting study anyhow. Have you ever taken botany? the other questioned. Oh yes. And I see that Miss Godfrey has quite a class in Botany this year, too. Whenever I see her taking the class out for a tramp, I feel as though l can hardly resist joining them again. That's the way I feel, too. To tell the truth, nature in every form is interesting to me. That's the reason that nature studies of all types are so fascinating, because nature itself is so grand and wonderful. Have you ever taken physics? was the next question. Never have. I would like to know, though, just what sub- jects physics deals with. It deals with the laws and habits of universal bodies, and of our own earth, more particularly. Also it touches on electricity, machinery and such things. You will do a good thing if you study it next year. No doubt I will. And now while I think about it, let's get down after these theorems. Enough said, was the answer. Small service is true service while it lasts.-Wordsworth. F O R T Y-T H R E E THE NORMAL DEPARTMENT ALMA BAKER Power in education is most fully realized when its knowledge has been applied and this power is most effective after having been directed into a channel for special training. The Normal work is the first new course to have been added to the growing line of study at La Sierra. We have enjoyed its instruction and training. It leads us to appreciate more fully that there is a proficiency toward which we may climb and to which we may attain in this art of teaching. To reach the round of success in its art, it depends upon the foundation work and the prepara- tion and development that it holds out to us-the principles of Christian education. The studies in psychology and in the life of the child itself, the principles that have to do with his physical as well as mental and spiritual development, and a course of in- structlon in Normal art work are among the many subjects we have enjoyed in the course this year. It has been said, Never has the world's need for teaching been greater than to-day. ln our church schools are gathered youth and children whom we are told by the Spirit of Prophecy will be called into responsible positions where they will stand to help meet this crying need of the world that prevails to-day. Of what importance then that the teachers who are to train these children shall themselves first receive the highest possible training that they may become better fitted to aid in the developing and moulding of these growing minds and characters. Here is the fruit which must come as the results from this first higher course which has been added to La Sferra's program-Christian teach- ers, teachers who are prepared to cooperate with God's divine plan in education, teachers who have a sympathy and under- standing of how to deal with youthful m'nds, teachers who are true to prfncple and whose characters have themselves been moulded after the divine pattern, teachers who can deeply ap- preciate the importance of the task and responsibility that is theirs, teachers whose characters are as pure as gold. Picture for a moment the flood waters of a river as they spread out over the land, bringing life and verdure to all the country over whfch they stretch. And yet, far in the distance is a mountain slope, the heights of which, however great its need, these waters may never reach. Take then the life giving waters of this stream, conttruct a channel through which they may course and put a power behnd them and they may be forced to the highest point of the mountain's far distant summit. This pictures to us the power and effectiveness of the specializing process in education, knowledge focused into a definite line, knowledge directed into a specially constructed channel and knowledge applied with the motive power of an aim and a pur- pose behind it. t Such training will enable the teacher to influence the hearts as yielding now to its touch as is plastic clay, opening the doors of young lives and perhaps mfsshapen characters where no hu- man influence has before found entrance, but which is now made possible because of the key discovered in the preparation and training received by the teacher in the well fitted Normal de- partment of a Christian school. Well then may we wish for the success and growth of our Normal department at La Sierra, where this training may be realized and the result of which we are told is cooperation with the Divine Teacher and the nicest work ever assumed by men and women, that of dealing with youthful minds. Though the summer brings its pleasures, long glad days with freedom's joys: I can feel my heart grow lonely For my thirty g'rls and boys.-Elizabeth Vipond. Dear Alma Mater: All loyalty to thee! My appreciation of La Sierra Academy is shown by the fact that I am spending another year within its portals. Here I em delving into the subjects of the Normal Course with an enthusiasm and interest which I have never ex- perienced before. Though La Sierra has become more dear to me during the past year, memory continually carries me back to the enjoyable pioneer days of 1922-23. Sincerely yours, Kathryn Reid.

Many delight in lovely paintings and are ready to worship the talent which can produce a beautiful drawing, yet all these things are only imperfect copies from nature. Art can never attain the perfection seen in nature. The Maker of all the beautiful things is forgotten. I have seen many who would go into ecstacies over a picture of a sunset, while at the same time they could have the privilege of seeing an actual and glorious sunset almost every evening in the year. They can see the beautiful tints in which nature's invisible Master-artist has, with divine skill, painted glorious scenes on the shifting canvas of the heavens and yet they carelessly turn from the Heaven-wrought picture to paintings of art, traced by imperfect fingers and almost fall down and worship them. What is the reason of this? It is because the enemy is almost con- stantly seeking to divert the mind from God. -fTest. Vol. 2, p. 590. It is refreshing to teach classes in which every student enjoys his work to the extent that such remarks as these are made. I do enjoy this classf' King. There goes the bell to quit and I've just gotten started, C. V. My, how quickly this art period, I. W. I wish this class were twice as long, it is so interesting, D. W. The first year art class began the year's work making char- coal copies from prints and still life projects. Later postal work was taken up. Small copies were made, at first, after which we studied the enlargement of pictures. The photograph will show some of the pictures which the students have enlarged. Several days were spent sketching the hills, cottages, trees, et cetera, sur- rounding the campus. Some of the students have finished these sketches in colors and are having them framed. This latter part of the year we are giving to the study of water coloring, which all are seeming to enjoy. The second year is largely devoted to artistic decorating and commercial and decorative lettering. Normal Arts-Our pedagogues have a share in this enjoy- love, deepest interest and heartiest sympathy he assumes the God-given responsibility of able work. My go with each as imparting to his little bigglessn and perpetual question marks a bit of this phase of life to develop the asthetic nature and which will, I trust, prove to be of great usefulness in the future lives of both teachers and pupils. SEWING. PEARL COOPER lf there be a man that labors not, or a woman who does not occupy herself with spinning, some one in the empire will suffer with hunger or cold. -Chinese. Among the industrial features listed in the Testimonies which should have an important part in our school program, mending is mentioned. In speaking of the kind of workers to send to foreign fields, the efficient seamstress has her place. What an important part of a woman's education is this phase of industry. Each member of the first year class has made a complete set FORTY-SIX of garments for herself. The book Textiles and Clothing has had a prominent part in our work and it has been both educa- tional and practical. The second year girls have made woolen shirts, dresses, spring suits, skirts, summer and graduation dresses, A continuation of the textile study has been carried on in research and theme work. I trust that the sewing department with the other industrial departments may have the place in La Sierra Academy that God designs, and that our school may be all that it should be. A PRACTICAL SPANISH COURSE CARLTON F. WICAL When we first took up the Spanish course there were a num- ber of questions in our minds regarding the new field of learning which was opened to us. l-low soon would we be able to talk in Spanish? When would our new learning be of practical value to us?', ul-low does the Spanish grammar differ from the English grammar? Within the first week we learned some of the simplest verbs together with the verb to be and a number of other words to enable us to form many simple sentences used in every-day con- versation. We learned the Twenty-third Psalm and other com- monly used Bible verses and a gospel song at the outset. A list of victuals and articles used at the dining table was given us and we were soon talking Spanish at breakfast, dinner and supper. The one thing which did more than any other to make our training practical was the rule that all class conversation or reci- tation must be in Spanish as far as possible. It was also re- quired, in the advanced class, that we be able to give Bible FORTY-SEVEN studies and talks, in Spanish, which proved very helpful indeed. The Spanish studied is that of the Latin America rather than the literary Castilian. The unfailing courtesy of the Spanish- speaking peoples was early presented for our study. These peo- ple in their every-day life treat each other as superiors. ln this respect they may be taken as an example for Christians. Another very interesting feature of our Spanish study was the study of our First Spanish Readers. In this we learned the geography, history, literature and customs of the several Spanish- speaking countries and interesting facts concerning their principal cities. In this way we added greatly to our fund of general knowledge besides learning the current idioms of the language. By the close of the first year we were able to carry on a prac- tfcal conversation. Beginning with our second year's work we took up the First Spanish Reader and the First Spanish Grammar again, but en- larged our study and entered more into detail so that we were equipped with the fundamentals of Spanish grammar and a larger vocabulary. After this the thing most needed was practice in Spanish com- position both oral and written. We obtained these from two main sources. For literary style and lessons in Christianity, the Bible was studied in connection with the Standard of Attain- ment manual, all in Spanish. For current language with idioms. et cetera, we studied a text-book of Spanish composition: also we read and made a paragraph outline of an approved Spanish book. This is only a brief summary of the ground covered by the two years study given in the Spanish department. It gives one a practical foundation and a full start for learning the language in its entirety besides a fair range of practical speech. OUR HISTORY DEPARTMENT PEARL WINETEER no Pencil and paper, please! W'liat for? asked the freshman. an A test of course, snapped the sophomore who had forgotten the assignment for the day and planned to bluff it through. u Vfe always have a written lesson if we haven't studied. I really believe Professor Vollmer knows by the temperature of the room whether we've studfed or not. 'But why do we need to study history in our schools? asks someone. There are a number of reasons for it's place of im- portance in our school. Chief among these, is its relation to the Bible and the prophecies. For example, we all know how very important the prophecy of the twenty-three hundred days has been and still is, to the Christian. Had it not been for the rec- ord of both the date and the history concerning the decree to restore and rebuild jerusalem, how could the men of the nineteenth century have figured out the close of that period without its be- ginning. Then again as we see the fulfillment of every prophecy of the Bible in its proper time and place we are led to see the absolute proof of the divinity of the Word of Cod. Again, we find its study of value in our great national prob- lems of the day. As we see what man did under similar cir- cumstances and the results, we can learn by their mistakes and failures, many a profitable lesson. As the youth behold from the pages of history, the lives of great men, their deeds of valor, loyalty, and service, they will thus be molded into the ideal citizen of tomorrow. MECHANICS DEPARTMENT HAROLD JAMES One of the busiest departments of La Sierra Academy is that of Mechanics. In this division students are instructed along lines that are most practical and useful in everyday life. The principal study is that of the upkeep, care and general repair of automobiles. The student is instructed how to main- tain an automobile or gas engine in such condition that it will give the greatest service. He is also instructed how to make repairs if such are needed. Not only is he given theoretical train- ing, but practical work is given. The Academy maintains a small repair shop in which the mechanic students work on and repair any cars which may be brought in. This line covers nearly every phase of automobile upkeep and repair. When the fact is considered that on an average, every other family in the United States owns a car which must be kept in running order, the importance and value of such a knowledge will readily be seen. Not only is the study of automobiles given but the student obtains a general knowledge of mechanics. The forge at the shop is kept continually in use, the students making tools or doing other iron work. The fire escapes on the buildings of the Academy were designed and constructed by mechanic students. The electrical wiring about the Administration Building was largely installed by this department as was also part of the plumbing. These few items show the practical nature of this course and serve to illustrate the value such a knowledge will be to the student in after life. FORTY-EIGHT THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT PLANS TO SERVE- The Students: By furnishing environment favorable to spiritual development, By furnishing healthful exercise-an aid to physical de- velopment. By helping them to develop tact, perseverance, courage, endurance, common sense. By equipping students in the department with a knowledge of desirable qualities in various agricultural products. By helping them to gain an understanding of the environment favorable to the production of various agricultural products and giving them opportunity to gain skill in furnishing this environment. By arousing in students an appreciation of and a love for the beauties and spiritual lessons found in nature. By furnishing remunerative labors. The School: By furnishing an abundance of fresh vegetables, fruits and other foods. By helping to bear the financial burdens of the school. The Community: By helping to solve The Boy Problem, encouraging the organization of boys work clubs and helping to furnish employment for them. By endeavoring to make the school farm an object lesson. The Denomination and the World: By helping to furnish recruits equipped for the practical duties of life-an essential element of success in many fields of missionary endeavor.-Edward T. Bush. FORTY-NINE AGRICULTURE CLADYS RYDER Did I hear you say that girls were not interested in Agricul- ture? It might have seemed that way when school commenced, for there were only two girls in the class, but soon they out- numbered the boys. What's more fun than taking a hike across the field to observe the irrigation system, or to see the neighbor's brooder houses and the baby chicks? just call at our brooder house and see our little White Leghorn roosters learning to crow. I'm sure you will agree that they have good reasons to crow when you compare their large combs with the others. Then too, I believe they would like to boost the class that has been so inter- ested in seeing them and their companions grow up and give the next year's class the privilege of planning their home. Oh, yes, that trip in the school's Ford to inspect Cassel Brothers' Hatch- ery was only one of the many little trips we enjoyed. They called us W'andering Jews, for we had no regular class room. First we held our class recitations in the basement of the new building. then in other class rooms as they were being finished, and late' on our instructor's front porch, and in the garden. It has been somewhat disagreeable when they were working on the building and in stormy weather, but we give Professor Bush a vote of thanks for his interest in us. THE MUSIC BEAUTIFUL FRANCES BROWN The melody of praise is the atmosphere of heaven. Above the newly created earth, as it lay, under the smile of God, the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy. So human hearts have responded to Gods goodness in notes of praise. lVlany of the events of history have been linked with song. The earliest song recorded in the Bible from the lips of men was that glorious thanksgiving by the hosts of Israel at the Red Sea: I will sing unto the Lord for he hath triumphed gloriously? The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. Men have received great blessings in response to songs of praise. How often by words of holy song are unsealed in the soul the springs of faith, hope, love and joy! It was with songs of praise that the armies of Israel went forth to the deliverance from jehoshaphat. When the army returned from the battle field. laden with the spoil of the enemy, they were singing praise for the victory won. Through song, David, amid the trials and dangers of his life, held communion with heaven. I-lis experiences as a shepherd lad are very sweetly told in the shepherds psalm. Jesus often met temptation with a song. When sharp words were spoken, when the atmosphere about Him was heavy with gloom, distrust or oppressive fear, was heard his song of faith and holy cheer. On the last sad night of the Passover supper, as he was about to go out to his betrayal and to death, I-lis voice was lifted in the psalm: Praise ye the Lord, all ye nations: Praise I-lim all ye people. During the last of the world's great crisis, Gods light will shine brightest, and the song of hope and trust will be heard in clearest and softest strains. The history of songs in the Bible is full of suggestion as to the uses and benefits of music and song. Music is often used to serve purposes of evil, and it thus becomes one of the most allur- ing agencies of Satan. But if it is employed in the right way, it is a precious gift of God that is designed to uplift the thoughts to high and noble themes, and to inspire and elevate the soul. As the children of Israel cheered their long journey in the wilderness with song, so we should to-day glaclden our pilgrim life. There are few means more effective for fixing His words in our memory than repeating them in song, and song has such wonderful power. It has power to subdue rude and uncultivated natures and power to quicken thought and awaken sympathy, to promote harmony of action, and to banish the gloom that de- stroys courage and weakens effort. It is one of the most effec- tive means of impressing the heart with spiritual truth: tempta- tions lose their power, life takes on new meaning, and courage and gladness are imparted to other souls. As our Redeemer leads us to the threshhold of the Infinite, we may catch the themes of praise and thanksgiving from the heavenly choir round about the throne. And as the echo of the angels' song is awakened in our earthly homes, hearts will be drawn closer to the heavenly singers. Let us prepare while here on earth to join in the song that only the ransomed will sing. The minds of the students at La Sierra Academy have all been turned to the uses and benefits of good music. The girls' Lyric club has found great favor in the eyes of the people of the Academy or connected with it. Besides the Lyric club, the chorus, the boys' club and the male quartette have furnished ex- cellent music. A large orchestra has afforded many an oppor- tunity to play and learn more of what good music really is. The music department has had as many as forty-five students taking piano lessons. Vi! hy do so many young people want to study music? It may be just to entertain or amuse themselves, but I am sure that there are some who find it a greater pleasure to make someone else happy.

We, the pioneers are working to make this school all it should be for its future students. Let us in imagina- tion make a visit to La Sierra some ten years from now. We come up the wide boulevard, past the thriving little town of La Sierra, to the school. It is so altered in appearance that we scarcely recognize the place where we spent so many happy days. The rose bushes along the road have grown tall, and the lawn is a velvety green. Scarlet and white verbenias border the cement walks that divide the campus. Set a little back, between the girls' dormitory and the admin- istration building, is a music and assembly hall where the stu- dents have chapel, while on the other side of the building is the church school. The little frame laundry has long since been replaced by a more substantial structure equipped with all modern conveniences. We learn that the kitchen and dining room are in the basement of the administration building now, and that the concrete struc- ture to the left of the girls' dormitory is the church. Farther back on the hill is the same old swimming pool, but now a large gymnasium has been built around and over it. Near it are tennis and basket ball courts. Such are our dreams. In spite of all these improvements, I am glad to return to the present La Sierra, for how can I be sure that the future school will have the same good spirit that we have? May the existing feeling of good will, enthusiasm and Chris- tian endeavor ever pervade our school. FIFTY-TWO A C1111 IVIIITIH A COLPORTEUR BAND Hello, Stanley, are you going to attend our Colporteur ln- stitute that begins to-morrow? It was Fred speaking. He was leader of the Colporteur Band and was very much interested in the work for he had made quite a success in this line of work last summer. Well I hardly think I shall. I have lots of studying to do and anyway it's no use for me to waste my time doing that for I never expect to peddle books for a living, and if I should I know it would be a pretty slim one at that, answered Stanley. But really I think you have all together the wrong view of it. l'm sure if you saw it as I do you'd be right into it. Well tell me, Fred, how you look at it, I have a lfttle time that I can listen. You know we have a band of about fifteen and we are going to have an institute next week. It is going to be mo-st in- teresting l know, for Brothers Painter, Renfro and Reynolds are coming and they are going to give a course in gospel sales- manship. Before I tell you all about this, however, I guess l'd better tell you why I think that Colporteur work is so profitable. FIFTY-THREE First of all it is very interesting work, this going out among the people and telling them of better ways of livingiit strengthens our faith and experience. It gives the people the message that they get in no other way, and you know, Stanley, we need to work hard and fast if we do our part in finishing the gospel to all the world in this generation. Then, too, it pays financially. lVlany young men and women have earned their scholarshfps by canvassing. Well that sounds pretty reasonable, Fred. Yes, one more thing,-you remember Walter, he canvassed and in five hundred twenty-seven hours he took one hundred thirty-seven orders. They amounted to i3l236.4O, or an average of 52.35 per hour. l thing that's pretty good. And a young woman I heard about recently sold 5500.25 worth of magazines in two hundred thirty-nine hours. You see it certainly pays fi- nancially as well as in other ways. I must admit, Fred, you are about right,-from these reports and it surely sounds interesting. I think l'll come to your first meeting, anyway. Good! l'm glad to hear that, came from Fred. The boys parted and a week passed before they got t'me to have a talk on this subject again. They were starting to supper when they met and Stanley was the first to speak. Fred, remember that chat we had last week? I certainly am glad we had it. I went to the first meeting as I said I would and it was so interesting that I've gone to every one. Yes, Stanley, I saw you there and I surely was glad. And say, did you know that I am among the six boys who are going to canvass this summer for a scholarship. I'm so in- terested in it I can scarcely wait for school to let outf' Stanley, I'm surely glad and say, I'm going to work for one too. I am so glad you have decided to do it. I know you will not regret your choice and I wish you the best of success. Thanks, Fred, and same to you. So saying they parted just inside the dining room door. D. V. C. THE IVIINISTERIAL BAND HAROLD MURPHY Two years have gone by since first our academy was found- ed,-two years of golden memories, of pleasant association and trials intermingled with hardships. And yet with a steadfast earnestness our school has held to its aim,- Training of work- ers, to educate the youth and to train men and women to devote their lives unreservedly in willing service for others. In our school there is no class that offers a more practical ex- perience and work than our Ministerial Band. The object of our band is to teach young men a true knowledge of the ministry and methods of work taught by the greatest of teachers, Christ. Each meeting is patterned after a church service, it is opened with song and prayer: then the speaker of the hour follows, each member having his day in which to speak. In this way each member is given practice and experience in public speaking. In connection with our speaking vital drills are given in posture, breathing and articulation, and in this way we learn to avoid wrong habits. In order to get the very best from our Band we have chosen Gospel Workers for our text book. Between its covers we find the true pattern. Our band is divided into groups which go out to various churches and assist in the services, thus obtaining the most practical kind of an experience. The past year's work in our Ministerial Band has been of inestimable value. The practical training and instruction we have received we prize as gems in our education, and there comes a deep satisfaction for service rendered in behalf of others, a satisfaction that deepens as that service widens, and finds its ultimate compensation at the foot of the great white throne. FIFTY-FOUR SPRING WEEK OF PRAYER ARTHUR GOBER Without exception, the spring week of prayer was the best that I have ever attended. There was an abundant evidence that the Spirit of Cod was present, and worked mightily for the salvation of all. Not only is it the work of the Spirit to Hreprove the world of sin, but to convince of righteousness. Many, both of students and teachers, testified that they had tasted a depth of the love and righteousness of God which they had never before tasted. Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord. This was demonstrated daily during that week. There was no excitement as Elders Daniels and Macc-uire led the student body beside the still waters while the Spirit said gently, but clearly: This is the way, walk ye in it. Some tried not to listen to the 'voice at first, but many found their way to the upper chamber, where they found rich blessings that the Master was waiting to give the humble seeker. The Ministerial Band met daily for prayer. Those meetings meant strength to us and will long be remembered by the group of young men. Prayer Bands were formed in the dormitories and sought the Lord most earnestly each day. Many souls took their stand for Jesus, some for the first time. From this time on we determine to make every week a week of prayer. He who speaks slang is l.ucifer's servant.-Langland. The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. -Thoreau. FIFTYFIVE THE IVIISSIONARY VOLUNTEER DEPARTMENT ARTHUR COBER One of the greatest factors in the Seventh Day Adventist denomination is the Missionary Volunteer Society. This depart- ment serves two purposes. First, it trains and holds the youth together, second, it provides for practical work. This is called for in the name. Let us consider the name: V-Volunteer, M-Master, S-Service. We have volunteered for the Masters service. And the Master's service is always practical. Success in any work depends largely on thorough organiza- tion. In our work at La Sierra we are endeavoring to lay a broad foundation, and at the same time carry on a large aggres- sive program. The faculty being heart and soul in this plan, have cooperated fully with us. Big week found many of the students in the field doing their bit to help finish the work. Harvest ingathering was not overlooked. Some were out for their first time and reported a good experience. The present committee is working hard preparing a good pro- gram to put into operation at the very first of another school year. We have at present about six bands, other than the prayer bands, which are no small factor in our work. All the bands are doing good service. The Ministerial Band, under the leadership of Professor E.. H. Emmerson is going direct to homes with the message, and it is our prayer that many will be brought to the truth that we hold up before them. The Christian Helpers Band has been mending clothes and carrying them to homes where they are needed. Each week the Correspondence Band meets to write letters and prepare Signs of the Times to mail. Thus we strive to win souls for the Master. THE SUNSHINE BANDS DELOS comsrock The Sunshine bands form a large factor in the missionary ac- tivities of La Sierra Academy. Every Sabbath a company goes to the Woodcraft Home, near the Academy and holds a meeting with the old people there. Miss Cooper has charge of the music and usually takes someone to sing gospel hymns. The young men or Elders of the church give short talks on Bible studies. Some of the members of the band with the person who speaks, go to those who are confined to their beds, and have prayer with them. There is one paralytic who has taken new hope in God because of a song that was sung. It is good experience for the students and the old people are very much pleased and cheered by these weekly visits. Elder Emmerson's band is a very active company also. Every week they hold Bible studies with a family which is very interest- ed in the Bible and want to know the truth. Several times the neighbors of the family have visited the studies and seemed to enjoy them very much. Often someone goes along to sing, mak- ing the study more impressive. The band has a list of names of people whom they are send- ing the Signs of the Times magazine. These names were sup- plied by members of the group who knew of people whom they thought would be interested in the paper. These are the main activities of these missionary bands, but in addition to this, the members are always on the lookout for some Christian help work to do or an opportunity to say some word of cheer. The student members of the bands find their work instructive and uplifting, and it encourages them in their service for Him who loved them and gave Himself for them. THE PASTOR'S REVENGE CA Story, OSCAR GER HART Two men, together with their families, had moved out West on the level prairies of Kansas. They had attended school to- gether when boys, and had been intimate friends ever since their early associations together. They had grown up and mar- ried. Then, attracted by the daring spirit of the early pioneers who were taking up homesteads in the wild and undeveloped land in the West, they had decided to follow these pioneers, and share the joys and hardships of building a home in these regions. The older of the two, John Gordon by name, was a quiet, easy-going, rather retiring fellow. He was a man who lived up to his religious convictions. He was an earnest Bible student, and loved to read no other book better than the Bible. He had been pastor of a little Methodist Church back East, but when he came West, was compelled to give up his position. The other, Ralph McDonald, was a rough, hard-working man. Although an intimate friend of Mr. Cordon's, he did not believe in the Bible or religion. He said there were as many good people outside of the church as there were in it, and that he could see nothing in the Bible that would save anybody. Mr. Cordon did not believe in arguing, so each went his own way without any conflict. Mr. lVlcDonald owned a beautiful collie. He took great pride in the dog, and thought almost as much of it as he did of his children, but it had one bad habit. It had a weakness of eating hens' eggs, and, while it never robbed its master's nests, it did visit lVlr. Gordon's hen-house, and devoured as many eggs as it could find. It was chained up during the day because of this FIFTY-SIX indulgence and vain attempts were made to break the collie of the habit. When the men moved out West, the collie was taken along. No sooner were they settled than the collie resumed its thieving. Mr. Gordon said little about this although it was proving a large financial loss to him. One day, Mr. Gordon was walking out over his homestead, with a gun under his arm, when he saw running along through the underbrush what he thought was a coyote. He raised his gun and shot the creature, which leaped into the air and came down in a crumpled heap. He walked up to it, and was hor- rified to find that, instead of a coyote, it was lVlcDonald's pet collie. He picked up the dog and carried him home, and with a heavy heart, related to Mr. McDonald what had happened. lVlr. McDonald regarded him coldly, then, with a sneer, he answered: Pretty nice scheme you've worked out, John. I thought you were more of a man than to do a thing like that. I understand it all. Don't explainf, he said, when lVlr. Gordon attempted to explain that it was purely an accident. Mr. McDonald and his family left his homestead a few days later and returned to the East. He never spoke to Mr. Cordon after the incident, so the latter was greatly surprised, when he found a note tacked on his stable door one morning, on which was written the following words: I am taking my family back to Pittsburg to-night. I will be back as soon as possible, and I'll square things up with you. Your lifelong enemy, Ralph McD0nald.f1 John Gordon was alarmed at the thought of what Ralph might do. He had seen him beat other boys his own size into unconsciousness when he had gone to school with him. And he knew his nature was unchanged, and that if he felt that he had been wronged, he would be sure to get his revenge. FIFTYSEVEN Summer changed into fall, but Ralph had not come. Winter was rapidly approaching. The birds were flying south in flocks. The frosts were growing more intense each week. One night. late in October, the sun sank to rest, not behind the boundless prairie, but behind a bank of clouds. The air was crisp and frosty. A moaning wind whistled around the ranch house, then sank into stillness. Then, suddenly it arose again, and fairly shook the house. A storm is coming, Mabel, Mr. Cordon announced to his wife, as he entered the house, milkpail in one hand and a basket of eggs in the other, and those yearlings are out in the pasture. I've got to bring them in to-night, or they'll all freeze out there. Accordingly, he donned his overcoat, bid good-bye to his wife and children, and, saddling his riding horse, started out. It was a long mile to the pasture, and once there, it was almost like hunt- ing for needles in a hay stack to locate the cattle at nightg but it had to be done, or the cattle would perish. With the lantern in one hand, he galloped along, searching the ground for foot-prints. Meanwhile, the wind had become a furious gale, and the sky was overcast with clouds. It was ex- tremely dark and soon snow began to fall. He saw it was hope- less to search for the cattle, and that if he expected to reach home safely, he must start back at once. The snow, already blinding his vision, was coming down faster than ever. But where was the gate that led outside the pasture? He could find it nowhere. Finally, he stopped his horse, jumped off and tore down part of the fence, and resuming his position in the saddle, dashed through the opening in the fence onto the road, which was cov- ered with snow. He tore madly along through the drifts. when by the side of the road, he saw a snow-whitened figure lying on the frozen ground. He stopped his horse, jumped off and shouted at the individual. There was no response. l-le turned his lantern on the man's face,-it was Ralph. l-le grasped him about the waist, picked him up, and began rubbing him. Life was not yet extinct, for the man began to groan. Gordon shouted at him. Wake up, friend. Your freezing to death out here. Ralph aroused himself with great effort. Mr. Cordon shook him. Ralph opened his eyes in a dazed way and stared at his rescuer. Then reason seemed to come back to him as he was lifted on the saddle. Do you know who I am? Ralph asked thickly. Sure, Ralph, I know you. You're the best friend I ever had. Mr. Gordon answered. They arrived at the house, shortly. Ralph told his intentions of coming out and murdering Mr. Gordon that night, how he had been caught in the blizzard and becoming drowsy, he had lain down and soon became unconscious. I see now, Ralph said, that there's something more in your religion than there is in mine. If I had been in your place to-night, and you had been lying there, I'd have put a bullet through your head. Then rising feebly from his chair, he reached out and grasped John's hand, and said, We're friends, John! Turning to his wife, John said, Well Mabel, the cattle are lost. I guess, but l've got my old friend back again, and that's worth more than all the cattle in the world. Do not hope for progress, hop for it. Don't get angry when folks lie about you. What if they had knovm the truth and told that? L. S. W. B. A.- VERA ROBERTSON Necessity is the mother of invention. This little statement has been proved beyond the shadow of a doubt in the minds of the La Sierra student body this year. Our parlors are unfurnished, our classrooms are in need of more furnishings and there are various features which, if we had in our administration building would make things more con- venient, but just step into one of our dormitory rooms and see what meets your vision. Three large windows, two large closets, and best of all, a nice washbowl piped with hot and cold water. What extravagancelu you say. But we do not think it is extravagance. We think it is merely a necessary convenience which did not cost the school a cent. Why, how is that? you ask. Well, here is our secret. We started school this year with sixty boys and seventy girls in our dormitories. Of course we expect our students to be neat and clean, but it was a difficult task with only two washbowls in each dormitory. At 5:45 the rising bell rang and every student was up, and grabbing a towel and wash cloth, would run to the bath room, each one trying to get there first so he could finish his toilet and be on time for worship. It was indeed an amusing sight to see thirty students around each washbowl, towel and wash cloth in hand, awaiting his turn. One by one they would finish and rush to their rooms. When about half of the students were finished the first worship bell would ring and they would have to go unprepared to worship, or not go at all. Attendance at worship was so poor that the teachers became alarmed and thought it due to a lack of religious interest and they began to investigate the matter. Students were continually being reproved FIFTY-EIGHT for tardiness and absence from worship and it became monoton- ous. A few ambitious students associated themselves together and said, This must be remedied, and they devised a plan whereby they could get the student body to work. Cne day posters were seen in nearly every room and hallway in our buildings. On the posters were written the letters L. S. W. B. A., and an invitation to every one to be at chapel the following day, and the meaning of these letters would be re- vealed. Everyone grew curious over the notices and they be- came a matter of general discussion throughout the school, but none, aside from the association were able to understand the meaning. Everyone was anxious to find out the secret and promptly attended chapel the next day. A dialogue was given illustrat- ing what may be seen, should one step into one of our bathrooms just after the rising bell. Students rushing here and there trying to be first one at the washbowl, some getting through in time for worship, some half washed and others left out entirely. It was very amusing for onlookers, but not so much so for those who were in danger of censure for not being present at worship. The second scene was that of a room having a washbowl in- stalled and boys preparing for worship. There was no rush, and they had no trouble at all in getting to worship, clean, neat and on time. This last scene inspired the whole student body to get wash- bowls for the rooms. lt can be done, they said, and we will do it. And do it we did. The school was divided into the individual classes, Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors, and each class set a goal of 5100 to be reached in thirty days. The following clay fThurs- FIFTY-NINE dayj the classes met and devised plans by which to raise money. Competition began at once. The Freshmen even went without their dinners to begin their work. A reward was to he given to the winning class, hence, the enthusiasm with which each class worked. It was nearer thirty hours than thirty days when the first goal was reached, for on the following Sunday at 6 P. M. the Se- niors sounded theii note of victory. Of course you couldn't expect anything but victory from seniors, especially those of '24. just six hours later, at midnight, the Juniors sounded their Over the Top Alarm. The Sophomores and Freshies were still working hard and in a few days each class had reached its goal. The faculty and board were amazed at the enthusiasm with which the student body plunged into the campaign and instead of merely giving the winning class a reward, they were so pleased that a picnic was given for the entire school. When we returned from our picnic weary and tired, we were cheered to the extent that our weariness vanished when we saw our washbowls had already arrived ready to be installed. Lucky stones are found in plucky paths. It is surely better to pardon too much than to condemn too much.-Eliot. Men and fish get into trouble because they do not keep their mouths shut. Be pleasant until ten o'clock every morning. The rest of the day will take care of itself. QEI Serrano Published by the Senior Class of La Sierra Academy. Subscription Price 51.00.

We are glad, not because we dislike to work but because we like to see things accomplished. To you, Wise Old Owls, we wish to show our gratitude for your steadfastness. You have helped us in our campaign and in many other ways. The faculty and board have granted our requests and given us many suggestions and good advise, for which we are thankful. It is a hearty thank you that we extend to Miss Small. You have been kind, patient and always ready to give helpful criticism and to work in our behalf. You, juniors, sophomores and freshmen, have given your loyal support in subscription campaigns, in gathering pictures and material to make the El Serrano a success, and we give you a vote of thanks. All have worked heartily to make this, our first Annual, a success and build a strong foundation for future service. THE STAFF. SCHOOL SPIRIT There has been much analysis of school spirit, from the Fresh- man whose heart beats with the desire to show loyalty, to the Alumnus, who feels a thrill whenever he sees the old place. School spirit is opposed to selfishness. A student who does any- thing-from editing the school paper to grinding at his own lessons-for personal glory, does not possess it. School is the place to begin to show loyalty to something bigger than ourselves. SARAH E. IVIONETTE. 1 m Advertisements 1 1 Probably no school in the United States is as fortunately sit- uated as is our own La Sierra Academy, tucked in here among the beautiful California hills and looking out across Happy Val- ley to the mountains. And certainly no educational institution cculd be better located than in such a land of plenty. Here in this fertile spot two acres, properly handled under in- tensive methods of cultivation, is sufficient to yield a comfortable living for an average American family. Practically surrounding the school is the Rancho La Sierra, consisting of several thousand acres, which has been held intact and cultivated on a large scale since the early days. This huge property has now been taken over by the John P. Mills Qrganization, lnc., of Long Beach, one of the largest land merchandising institutions in the state, and is being subdivided into small farms. The foundation is thus being laid for the development of a prosperous rural community adjacent to the Academy. Prob- ably nowhere else in the United States will such ideal living con- ditions prevail as in this favored region, peopled by independent home owners, each living on his small tract of land and produc- ing on it a comfortable living with something to spare. The old rancho is being cut into 2 l-2, 5 and 10 acre tracts, each of which is provided with an abundant supply of domestic and irrigation water. The water supply, in fact, not only assures the agricultural success of the community, but stamps it as the most outstanding realty development in the state, there being no other small farm project development anywhere in California so well provided for in the way of irrigation supply. Soil and climatic conditions are also ideal. The district is practically frostless and suited to the growing of every imagin- able variety of fruit and vegetable. . The soil-a rich brown Hanford loam, is unusually fertile, maturing crops much more rapidly than they can be produced in most districts. Poultry is the foundation of Happy Valley prosperity, condi- tions being ideal for egg production. Profits of from 51.50 to 52.50 per year per hen are the rule among Happy Valley breed- ers, and from 500 to l500 hens are easily kept on a 2 l-2 acre farm. In addition a piece of ground that size will produce sufficient green feed for the poultry flock and more than a sufficiency of vegetables and fruits for the use of the family residing on the place. An independent income is thus assured to the owner of a small Happy Valley farm, and he has the rare privilege of bringing up his children in the finest moral environment, away from the contamination of the cities, and with the best educa- tional facilities in the land right at his door. Already many of the small farms in the tract have been pur- chased and new homes are being established. La Sierra Acad- emy invites good Americans to bring their families and locate in this vale of contentment. lVlr. E. Kaselack, director of sales for the John P. Mills Organization, with offices at 1709 E. Ana- heim street, Long Beach, is making a special appeal to friends of the school, and several prominent members of the student body are assisting him in telling the public the advantages of living in this district.-Advertisement.
