JUNE l. i925 ALVIN HOWARD, Editor REFORM PARTY TRIUMPHS AT LAST Miss Juett Elected Mayor- Radical Reforms Proposed In the election of Miss Blanche Juett to the mayoralty of Greater Brent- wood, the Progressive Reform Party has triumphed at last Miss .Iuett is a young woman of sterling character whose greatest pride is her native city, Brentwood. The city may llfllw for great things. Possessiug a large heart and a great pity tor all dumb and suffering ani- mals, Miss Juett has promised to found a home for invalid and indigent cats and dogs. We hope this project will win the approval and hearty support of all the citizensof ourbcautiful city, as it is one of the greatest philan- thropic movements of the age. She also proposes a striking reform in the public schools. She wishes the tcachers to provide a dainty repast for each class. The wisdom of this re- form Miss Juctt learned in her high school days. She vividly remembers the hours when she sat suffering the pangs of hunger, while she patiently awaited the sound of the bell which would bring to her the much desired a rticle-f ood . These are only two of the great number of reforms which Miss .luett will bring to pass. Again we wish to repeat that the city may hope for great things. TO HONOR BRENTWOOD Beautiful Star to Give Perform- ance in City of Her Birth Miss Neva Sheddrick. the beautiful young star. is to make her appearance in Brentwood next week at the Brent- wood Opera llousc lnee Coates' llalll in her famous play, The Flirt. Her stage career has been one of continued success. Her dazzling beauty and sweet personality have endeared her to many, to say nothing of the charm of her wonderful acting. Miss Shi-ddrick's rooms are always a bower of beautiful flowers. Many suitors have sought her hand, but she has steadfastly announced her de- termination to remain true to her art. The Flirt is one of the most pop- ular playsofthe season. It run for ten months at the Maxine Elliot Thea- tre in New York, and Miss Shcddrick closed her engagement there to ap- pearin her native city. Brentwood. She is to return to New York when her present engagement is ended. NEW BOOK APPEARS A new book has just made its ap- pearance from the pen of the brilliant young author. .loe Hand. 'I'he title of the book is Strolling Mr. Hand has contemplated this book for some time as he gathered most of his ma- terial from his experiences during his high school days. Strolling has become very popular and is much in demand. Sliding 'l'hrough is another book by Mr. Hand,also very popular. cs- pecially among high school and col- lege students. Uther books by Mr. Hand are Pop- ularity With the Girls. The Single Man, and The Athlete. BRINGS PUBLIC TO HIS FEET Roy Frerichs Biggest Laugh in Bing-Bing's Circus Mr. Roy Frerichs, a former resident of Brentwood and vicinity has scored one of the biggest hits of the season as chief clown in Bing-Bing's Circus. He impersonates Tom Thumb and other diminutive figures, He is the children's favorite and the little ones scream with delight when their funny friend appears on the tanbark. Although Mr. Frericlis is at his best asa clown, he is a skilled tight-rope walker. It islhrilling indeed to see the slendcvtfigure in purple tights make his way swiftly and carefully across the tent upon the tightly stretched wire. People hold their breath for fear he will fall, but they do not know the cool nerve and the firm footing of the man high up in the air with nothing between him and death but his feet. Brentwood will soon have a chance to see Roy perform. for Bing-Bing's will appear in this city early in Sep- tt'lllIN'l'. EDITOIRIAL ALVIN HOWARD, Editor We wlsh to call the attention of the public to the rapid growth of our beautiful city and also of this, our news scatterer. especially after we took hold. We remember our high school days in dear old Liberty l'niou. ln those days Brentwood was only a villageand the NEWS was printed once a week. Now Greater Brentwood is second only to San Francisco. The NICWS is one of the leading dailies and Liberty l'nion is among the greatest schools in the State. And we are editor of the NEWS. Also please notice the good fortune of all our classmates.

BRILLIANT WEDDING OF POPULAR COUPLE Miss Brown and Mr. Hoggen- heimer Plight Their Troth A Wcflflillg of great interest took place in Brentwood last evening. .-lt a brilliantly appointed ceremony Miss Frances Brown became the bride of Mr. Egbert lloggenheimer. The wedding took place in the new Con- gregational Ghurch on Chestnut Ave- nue. The church was beautifully decor- ated with marigolds and potato plant. Preceded by her attendants the charming bride, upon the arm of her father, swept up the aisle to the altar, where the unfortunate groom awaited his doom. Miss Brown was exquisitely gowned in a charming creation of the new yellow lace over red satin. A veil of yellow mosquito netting completed the costume. The groom wore the conventional suit of blue silk crepe embroidered in pink sweet peas. Miss Alicia Hoggeuheimer attended her future sister-in-law as maid of honor, while the Misses .loy lleart- breaker, Helen Street and Marjorie Love acted as bridesmaids, Mr. Ma- grnth Alexander was best man and the ushers were Messrs. Weary Willie, Erasmus Jones and Kacey Speed. After the ceremony a reception and dinner was attended by thc many friends ofthe couple at the magnifi- cent Brown residencc on Liberty Avclllle. Following a honeymoon spent in Oakley the happy pair will reside in Knightsen where Mr. Hoggenheimer is head of the Pork Trust. HEAVY LOSS IN EXPLOSION Work of Many Years Destroyed When Chemist F orgets A violent explosion, which took place in the laboratory of Walter Swift, the well known chemist. de- stroyed one of the greatest discov- eries of the century. For several years Mr Swift has been working np- ona gas by means of which students could obtain their lessons without study. lle was deeply absorbed when a cry from his infant son caused him to drop everythingand run to the rescue. But alas! after removing the heat from under the flask he forgot to re- move the delivery tube from the water and, bang! the valuable work was destroyed. But Mr. Swift is of a persevering nature and will begin at the begin- ning. In a few years he hopes to present his work to the pnbllc. Ella Wurz '03 P Fxliteen IFS.

A short girl with red curly locks and a little turned up, freckled nose entered the butcher shop one day, with her wobbly, bowlegged dog, Needles. She and Felix were very well acquainted. The first day Felix met her he said to himself, Therc's the girl for me, and straightway proceeded to court Sapphire. Finally he asked her to become his wife. The day of their marriage ap- proached and all was in readiness but no Sapphire appeared. Felix waited' and waited and waited which was about ten minutes, and finally growing impatient he started in the direction of Sapphire-:'s nome to find her if he could. Meanwhile Sapphire, who had decided that she cared nought for marriage, fled to the feed stable and there hid in the bar- ley bin. As she sat there all huddled up Felix's voice could be heard through the cracks calling. Sapphire! Sapphire! My darling, for the love of Mike appear, and make me a happy man once more. Sapphire upon hearing the sad and sor- rowful voice of Felix began to weep. When the rooster, who was picking up kernels of barley near by, heard the sobs, he be- came frightened and broke the speed limit. He hurried from the place, making such a noise that Felix's attention was drawn at once towards the bin which con- cealed his sobbing Sapphire. At a. glance he had taken in the situation. Then lift- ing the lid, he helped out his long, lost love, brushing the barley from her hair while doing' so. She sobbed out her troubles on his spotless White vest, which was no longer spotless. Well Pet, brace up and we'll have a wedding' after all, he comforted, pressing her hands. Ruth Lent.

Ruth in drawing' is a. shark, And of genius has a spark, Minerva who has eheeks like roses, During English po'ms eouiposes. t arl at the shop does work, And his English likes to shirk, While in Algebra every day, Mabel is our chief mainstay. Ned Maegurn is a fiend at spelling. What. he gets there is no telling. Kate at typing is some swell. For she surely does it well.

Deer Bill :-Gosh, but it's lonesome sinee you went away. don't seem like nothin's the saim. we had a hadn't. I about six home. IVell, you know them to white kittens your ma gave mine when she Went away? Well you know the darn gettin my dog' in trouble, Red Elkins. They pest him and you know he's a good dog' but theres some things he c'an't stand and eats Yestiddy was April Fools and great time, but I kinda wish we aint been able to set down sence o'eloek last nite, when pa got things are always the one I got from and tease around is one, and so he lights out and ehases em, and then when ma comes out a.nd sees her kittens stuck upon the fenee with their tales swelled up and there eyes poppin out and jest spittin like the fire when you throw water on it, why she tiesnpoor Spotty up and then tells pa, and pa says: AKGIIQS we'll have to get rid of that dog. So yestiddy, that erosseyed Smith kid and me. we got those kittens and tied there tales together and slung' em over the elose-line, then I hollered to ina to eome and see the airship and jest as she got to the baek dore I yelled April Fool I and beet it. Say, you oughta seen them eats! I thought they liked eaeh other but the way they went to it when they was slung' over that elose-line you'da thought they sure had it in for eaeh other. They 1-lawed and spit and seratehed and bit and there was white hare aflying' in every dureetion. Ma did:1't ask where the airship was, just yelled, Oh my poor kittens! and I didn'I wait to hear no more, but erawled through the hole in the fense and hiked through the haek alley to sehool. You know that the new girl with the lone' hare sets in front of me now. IYell she's a. kinda niee kid. grave me some gum last week, but she's awful stuek on herself and loves that brade of hare more than anything: Keeps switchin it around in my faee all the time, so yestiddy I picked it up reel quiet, took my gum out of my moulh tit was the wad she gave me tool rapped it around the end of her brade and then plastered it down to my desk. Gosh, I never knew gum would stiek so. Well she sat still long' enuf to let it git hard then the teeeher ealled on her to read. She tried to git up but that brade was stuek fast and so she stnek. The teeeher asked what was the matter but she never sed a. word, jest started in to ery and then the teeeher eaine down to see what was the matter. When she found out she jumped on me rite away never even asked who done it or nothin, and there I was studyin just as hard as you please. She gave me an awful liekin but that girl howled louder than I did when the teaeher sed she guessed she'd have to eut the end of her hare off, she jest bellered like a youne' ealf and all that fuss over a measly o'd brade of hare. Gosh aint girls the queer tllirigs? Well when I got home for luneh I walked 'in like nothin had happened, but I was shakim in my boots. Ma's eyes was kinda red and she says, Robert, tyou know ma means business when she says Robert, its generally Bobhie.l Robert I shall tell your father on you and he will punish you when 'he eomes home this evening. I kinda wished she'd waited till after luneh heeiause I eouldn't eat mueh then but she didn't say anything' more. Nothin happened in the afternoon eeptin that Jack Rhodes got a lir-kin for laughin at the new girl's hare. she's go! about 6 indhes ent off. She dont set in front of me no more but it wouldnt matter if she Ipnle Eighteen did, her hare's too short to fasten now aml besides I havent any more gum. But I sure got an awt'ul wullopiu from pa th-at night. I ate supper otl' the kiteheu table, standin up and today the teeeher asked me it' there was a pin stiekiu me I wiggled around so mueh. But l'll get even with that pesky girl and them darned eats t'or the two liekins they eaused me. Neither eats nor girls is ally good no how. Yours, Robert B. Ames Jr. I'. S. I forgot to tell you our eow had twia ealves yestiddy.-Bob. P. S. The new girl's mother won't speak to ma now. wimmen is quear as well as girls and eats.-B. Brentwood, California. May 12. 1914. Dear Bill:-Say Bill, maybe you wont believe it, but Ive pretty near lerned to danee. You know they have dafuf-ing sc-hool here now. They have it in the af- ternoon for the kids and at night for grownups. Well yesterday afternoon ma dressed me all up, put that darned old eollar on tlhat spreads out on my eoat tlilton she ealls itl and took me over to the daneing sehool. There was fl bwaeh of kids there. and they looked awful funny. espeeially the boys. I guess I looked funny too, eanse me cars got awful red and felt just like red lamp-shades, and my feet felt awful light and queer in them pumps and silk soeks. The girls was having a swell tilne, sitting -around giggling and fussing their hare and looking at the boys. Well a young lady witih a awful tight skirt with ruffles. and high heel shoes and hair slieked baek and earrings on eame up to ma and ask Does your little boy want to daueef' and I stood up real straight so's she'd see I wasn't very small and Ma says, Yes, go with the lady dear. and the lady nabbed my hand and started to walk ar-ross the floor with me where a buneh of boys were standing. Maybe you think I didnt feel like a darn fool, Pr gr ileuen and that l'at Morse kid grinned all over I'll swan him next time l see him jllsl to nmke him grunt he's :tl fat. Well she takes me up to the buueh. aml says to Fatty Morse, l'erey will you try this boy. Its his lirst time. And l had to put my ul'm around that fat slob, the felt jllsl like a saek ol' flourl and Fatty starts in flue two, one two, and off we goes. Gosh that kid was heavy and he'd land ou my foot every time he'd say two. Pretty soon I got sore. and just tlhen we got to the door an-nd I says Lei's go get eooled off, so we went outside and maybe you think I didu't land into that kid. I mussed him up something fieree, and just as I got through we heard somebody eomin. and I says, You better go home, son, so Fat beat it and the young lady eome out and says. Oh here you are Robert, I missed you. Dont you want to eome in and danee with some of the little girls? I didu't want to and besides I was kinda mussed up but she took my hand and I had to. She hiked over to where there was a big mob of the girls. with me tag- ging after her, and who do you spose she made me danee with? The kid that had to have her hair ent off 'eause I put gum in it. Gee I was sore. Well I put my arm around her and grabs into the onlv thing' I eould find, it was tihe bow of the ribbon she had around her waist, and westarted off. I stepped on her foot just for mean- uess, first thing and she gives a funny lit- tle gasp but don't say nothing. I only wished I'd had on my big boots stead of them pumps. She r-ould danee pretty good so I hangs on to that blue ribbon for dear life and used it for a handle to turn her around wit'h. and every time the rest of 'em turned I'd give that ribbon a yank and switeh her around. I sure got even for tbat liekin she eaused me. I just walked all over her feet and twisted that blue ribbon in fifty different direetions. And then what do you suppose happened? Well that ribbon eame untied and she kept on daneing and there I was hopping around with about fifty yards of blue ribbon in my hand. The fellas just bowled and the kid says, Yon nasty mean horrid bov von, you've ruined my sash. You aint get no manners at all. You just pulled it rite oti' on purpose. And I says, Aw go on, I was just hanging on to it, you did the pulling yourselffl And then the dancing teacher comes up and says, Why Rob- ert, Im surprised at you. Give Marie her sash, and I says, Gosh I don,-t want the darned thing. She must have tfhought I wanted it. All this time the fellows was laughing fit to bust and I slams the rib- bon down on the floor and starts over to clean up the bunch and I catches my foot in that ribbon and falls flat on the floor. Goslh I was mad. And just then ma comes over and the dancing teacher says, Mrs Ames, I think you'd better take Robert home he seems to be rather excited. Ex- cited! Huh! I guess she'd have been ex- cited too if she'd been made a fool of be- fore about fifty people. And then Marie's ma comes rushing up and says to ma, Madam, your son seems bent upon hu- miliating my daughter in every possible mia.n.n.er. and ma freezes up and says I presume it is too great a. stretch of mem- ory to recollect that you were a child once. And she takes my hand and says, come dear lets go home. And Marie's ma just got purple but ma never looked at her, just sails right out and we goes home. 0, I heard her and pa laughing awful hard after I went to bed that night, but it was no joke l tell you. Yours. Rob Ames. P. S. Ill be darned if I go to that dancing school again, and I gave Red El- kins and Jim Barnes a couple of black eyes today when they says something about blue ribbons. Brentwood, Cal., June 28, 1914. Dear Bill: Yestiddy was the first day of vacation and I earned a dollar. You know Uncle Dick. ma's brother that goes to College? Well he came up Friday nite and said he was going to spend his vacation here. IIc's a kinda decent sort of fclla but therc's a girl staying at Ficld's right next to us, who he used to know and he's awful sweet on her. She's a nice girl but she kisses me and musses my hare and calls me Bobbie dear right before all the folks. Well yestiddy morning I was showin Uncle Dick around the place and you know tihose twin calves I was tellin you about? Well they was out in the lott back of our house and so was the old cow. The calves are pretty husky now and Uncle Dick says: Say Bob, ol top les have some sport, and I says, Sure And he says, Go get your little red wagon and a. couple of pieces of rope. And so I did and he started ouit after the calves. They was at omie end of the lot and the old cow was a-ta the other. Well he walks up to them calves and ties the ropes around there necks and starts to leed them over to where t-he wagon was. Did they leed? Well I gess not. The red calf began to run one way and the spotted calf the other just as hard as they could tare. When they got to the end of the roap they fell down and spun around on 'there jaw bones and nearly jerked Uncle Dicks arms out. But he's as game as they make em and hung on. Well those calves gets up in a jiffy and both starts to run the other Way and Uncle Dick gets one roap twisted around his nees and the other around his ankles and then both calves starts off in the same direction and he has to go to. At first he tried hopping, but they went too fast and he trips and stumbles and finally falls down and skates along on his nose. Gosh it was the funniest thing I ever saw. You oughta seen them calves run, arnd there was Uncle Dick draggin and bumpin along behind 'e1n. He had swell white flannel pants on. and they was getting all streaked up with grass and dirt. and he 'had on low shoes and they both got nntied amd flew off and one bounced up and hit him on the ear. Gee he was the sorest guy I ever saw. For Lord sake Bob. he yells, get a knife and cut me loose, and he just swore a blue streak. But I was laughing so hard I couldn't do nothin but just run beside him. Just about that 'time though thc old cow spots 'em and she starts toward l?v:...l I'ncle Dick with her head down and tail n'flyin' and then I gut scared cause I thought sl1e'd gore him. So I grabs my knife and cuts the ropes and those fool calves just kept on running and the old cow keeps heading for l'ncle Dick. Well I cut the ropes around his feet and knees and than we boah starts for the fence lick- cty split. We just got there in time and crawled over as she took a board off with her horns. Well you oughta seen Uncle Dick. All the skin was oif the end of his nose and his hair was full of weeds and his face was pretty near covered with dirt and grass stain and his clothes too. The parts of his face that weren't covered were kinda pale yellow color amd he was scared stiE. He didn't say nothin for about five minutes, then he stuck his hand in his pocket and says, Say Bob this is yours if you never breathe a word of this to anybody, Marjorie especially. I wouldn't have told her anyway, but didn't tell him so, and I took the dollar and just grin-ned an says, Sure Last night I heard him telling Marjorie how he bumped into a door in the dark and skinned his nose. and she says. That's too bad. Bu-t what do you know about it, she saw the whole thing cause she was over this morning and I heard she and ma laughin about somethirng' and I listened and I heard Marjorie say, Yes I was standing in the kitchen window and saw it all. Ile bribed Bobby not to tell. Wouldut that hump you? But I should worry. I got the dollar anyway. Yours, Bob Ames. F. B.

Of these I will now try a little to tell, So you will know they're coming along well. Our Virgie has left us. ,tis sad to say, To go Anacortes, which very far away. And now we turn to our classmate, Grace, IYho to use big words thiuk's it's very good taste. In basket ball Sayde is sure some shark, And in Geometry always gets a good mark. Adella always knows her lessons to a. t And can recite poetry as fast as can be. Our Zelma thinks a lor of a certain boy, And to play the part of Portia. is to her a great joy. But Bertha. thinks each boy a beast And cares for them, no, not in the least. Studious Fern is adapted I0 learning, And her greatest trouble is translating German. May is always smiiipg it surely does seem, And her ambition is to make the team. Now to the boys and to their sports, We find them on all sorts of courts.', In hand-ball Ellis does sure take pleasure, And no other Soph. can to his skill measure. In foot hall Aubrey is sure some ra.cer, Ile can run and dodge like a. nigger Chaser. Frank has his sport in another way, He's courting the girls most every day. In Rugby, Clifford takes interest, they say, And a eleyer player he'll be some day. Sometimes John to school takes a hike, And Uharles comes whenever he likes. And now, my friends, my tale is ended, And all my knowledge is nearly expended. I am a Soph. and proud of the name, And no doubt. you will give me no blame.

Rub Phillips, it read, the answer to your Ad. Ile turned to view 11 sauey, boyish, tai- lored girl. Rub seated herself. I'm Dad's boy and you'll never know me from the real thing if you take me on,-'Baseball enthusiast, happy temperalnent and willing to rejuve- nate. Jones foots the bills,' is what won me. As the man sat silently eyeing her, she glaneed around and said, Where's Aunt Mary, shall I transaet the business with her? The Gloom-man seemed to eome baek to life again and replied 'I hat's the trouble. she put the advertisement in the paper on inspiration. then reeeived a, telegram from home saying, 'Tommy had the mumps' and away she flew, telling me to be sure to se- leet the right applieant. Molly always was the kind ofa sister to get a fellow into Il mess. Aw, never mind, it.'s you deeision that eonnts. let's proeeed. I read the ad and went down to the Tribune olliee early to await developments. I waited and when your man ealled for mail F. 23 I followed 1'l'f.., frm...- ihiuurnatnr .. ... X , , , x is him. Personal interview is always desirable. 'lf you like-a me and I like-a you, And we both like about the same,' she huunne'I, now the question before the house is, a1'e you respeetable? I'm in for a good deeent time. Dad's away for three months and he said I eould do anything' respeetable, if I'd keep out of debt and not marry. t'ould you make it a hundred a month? the salary. I mean. Dad said I never eould earn that mueh. And a three months' en- gagement? Would you for the sake of re- speetability eall for me and take me home eaeh day? The man was silent, so she eontinned, Am I 'the rejuvenator? You interest me, deelared the Gloom- man, and Pm respectable, I hope. Yes. I'll meet your terms. Now, I suppose you ought to know what ails me. Well, I was engaged to the sweetest girl on earth. so I thought: she eloped with her ehauffenr. I'm broken. nothing interests me, you'll hate me. for it's weak, I know. No, she answered softly, I like you beeause you eare, but don't get eold feet. I eouldn't marry yon if I would. I.et's go to the ball game. I want to see the Oaks win. lf we don't eount the eoin, we ean have a jolly time. I'm going home, eall for me soon. Ile followed her to the Iihrarv where she turned and said. I'm sorry about my slang. if you eare. Dad says no one would ever guess the money 'he's spent on my eollege polish. Say, when I have on my evening gown you eau't guess what a pol- ished lady I beeome. I'm going to eall you Cousin Gloom. 'IIe's 41 eousin of 77 mine, ' she sang. The Gloom-man eanght her hand and said. Say, but you are good for the dumps. She quickly withdrew her l1and and said, None of the clasp stuff, just a good time. Give me twenty minutes, then hump. The ball game was over, Bub had proved a good fan and as they entered the auto- mobile she took the wheel. Bub, exclaimed the Gloom-man, almost with enthusiasm, let's don our evening clothes and dine at the 'Poodle Dog! She seemed embarrassed a moment, then said, Oh, rats, its a cinch. We'll go. They were waiting for the ordered dinner to be served, the glittering lights, the be- witching music and the buzzing voices en- veloped them. Bub was demure, trans- formed: the Gloom-man could not account for the change. Bub, he said, do you believe in dual personality? I believe between the two of you I will rejuvenate. And the 'man almost smiled. No, she replied, not dual, just dif- ferent. Then with a bewitching little laugh she rippled, I am sure it sounds queer, but I even think differently in my evening gown. Tivo months have passed. He was again himself. They were returning from the golf links and Bub wasnt the wheel, break- ing the speed lawn, 0 - 'tStop, Bub, le1t's enjoy the sunsetql' he rather demanded. Ah, chuck it, I'm afraid its the clasp stuff, she said, but here goes. Ilm leased, you know. She stopped the car under a large spreading oak. He took out a large bas- ket and she saw it, she said Bully for you, Cousin Gloomf' They had a merry feast and lingered on the slope to see 'the sunset, Bub said. As they started off again, the Gloom- man drew a slip of paper from his pocket and said, Herels your check for three hundred dollars: it's only two months, but ,you've earned it royally and now I want to release you and begin again but on a dif- ferent footing. Bub looked perplexed and uncomfort- able. I know you mean well, but I can't take it all, I haven't earned it, its the sum I named and it makes me feel like a lemon. You keep it, Bub, your services were invaluable. You have coaxed me back to normal and I have better poise than I ever had before. If my love could lease you for life I should be happy. Why couldn't you marry me if you would? Father would object, sho replied ro- guishly. But if father would give his consent? he persisted. Cousin Gloom, which of my two do you like best, evening gown or this? pointing to her golf costume. Well, to tell the truth, I think I should choose the lassie of the evening gown, but I'm not certain. Why? Say, Cousin Gloom, it's getting late so we'll spin towards home and on the way I'll tell you why I couldnlt if I would. They reached the Park and Bub brought the car to a stop under a large electric light and jerked off her cap. This is why. She removed a wig and Don't take it too hard, old man. A boy! the Gloom-man choked. laughed. Bub replaced wig and cap and said, Buck up old chap. The car now stopped at Bub's home and Bub, turning to Cousin Gloom. said: Come on in. we'll settle the matter. You must forgive me, but I did it for a joke. I didn't think you'd get to care that way. The man objected but Bub pulled him inside, pushed him into the parlor and switched on the lights. There sat Bub in an evening gown. I-Ie looked from one to the other in bewilderment. Twins, chuckled the golf clothes Bub. 'tTell it to her, she could if she would, and she's spoons on you, she said so. And then they were alone. Blanche Juett. '15.

When a loud and awful elaviter Sonnrled through the pear-eful night. To their windows rushed the people At. this terrifying noise, And they saw a gravel wagon l'iled up high with girls :incl boys. 'Twas the famous Junior Ilay Ride Setting forth upon its way. But 'twas in a gravel wagon, And there was no sign of hay. Uh, the shrieks that rent the night, air! Oh, the agonizing groans! When a jolt eaused hy a ehuek-hole I'roveal too harrl for some one's bones. Su their painful way they wenfleal. Going westward from the sc-hool, Drawn hy two poor heasts of burden- Une a horse and one a mule. Then they turned into the ereek road, Following the ereek along: Till at last they reaehetl u farnihouee, Then uprose the weary throng. MU Stretched their cramped and weary muscles Grabbed their hats, and pins, and hair. Then advanced upon the farmhouse For there was 11 hay-rack there. Should they take it? lVould they dare to? Should they have a real hay ride? And-remenibring bumps and bruises- As with one voice, Su1'e! they cried. But 'twas quite too full of hay, so Ev'ry boy stripped off his coat, But the Juniors sat by idly, While the Seniors played the goat. For the Juniors lazy creatures. Always did their duty shirk. Seniors were their guests of honor, Juniors sat and watched them work. When the hay-rack was unloaded, And the Seniors quite worn out, Ev'ryone piled in the wagon, Juniors first, you need not doubt. Sandwiches and cakes and apples, All were piled up in a heap, And the way that they were sei on Was a sight to make one weep. And they left the gravel wagon Sf2Ll1diIlQ'4l16l'9 beside the road, Then urged on the weary creatures To draw forth their heavy load. lferrily they clattered onward. Song and laughter filled the air, And the chaperones were busy, Chiding many a spooniug pair. S 'Uourse the Seniors were not guilty, They would not do such a. Ithing. Juniors were the worst offenders, Bet this makes their conscience sting. After all the lunch was eaten They decided to return, Freshies who were getting sleepy, For their little beds did yearn. Fainter grew the songs and laughter, Just a few sang merrily, Many eyes were growing heavy. Many heads drooped wearily. 9 Page lTwenly-Si P TLT!!!-SeVcn Ev'rything was still and peaeeful, They were on their ltoinewa1'd way, When was heard the fort-eful eominent, Gosh! lint here's the deuee to pay! Instantly the steeds were halted, Instantly the sleepers woke, Some in wonder. some amusement, But they found it was no joke. Quit-kly all climbed from the wagon, For it lurehed unsteadily. And examined it on all sides, What the trouble was to see. Soon they found it, 'twas Il hind wheel, And the tire lay on the ground. Then arose a dismal groaning, When the news was passed around. For it piereed their sleep-fogged senses There was nothing but to walk, They might just as well be starting, 'Twas no use to stand an-'l talk. So with many groans and protests They set forth upon their way, Some there were who would be merry But the most were far from gay. Two and two. in threes, and singly, Wearily they plodded on, Rarer. fainter. grew the laughter. All their spirits gay were gone. Well. of eonrse they got home sometime, 'Twas not over half a mile. At the time they swore 'twas twenty, Now they tell it with a smile. Ilad one eome along next morning. 'Fore the wrevk was f-leared away. IIe'd have seen the poor old hay-raek, And the road all strewn with hay. llats and handkerehiefs and apples, Marked -their progress into town, Apples. 'speeially niee green ones, Were strung all along the ground. When it eomes to entertaining Juniors really ean't he beat. You must. travel far and wide e'er You will with their equals meet. Yet wc-'d oiter ai SIIQQPSIIOII, One or two'd noi be anniss, Juniors surely won't be zlngryg Our HllQ,LlCStl0ll'S simply this: 'Tis not really quite the thing to Make your guests of honor work, So we would advise the Juniors Duty never more to shirli. Also when you give at hay-ride You must have at lot of hay, Never use ai, gravel wagon, In ai hay-rack is the waxy. Some who were at bitt partifflar, Didnt get enough to eat: Sundwielies are not improved by Lying' under someoncfs feet. Still eonsidering' the bright side, Ev'ryone had ai great time.

It's just the grandest place in the world. But let me they did to me. Hazing may be forbidden in this school know that it tell you what but the Sophomores don't is. They take a delight in hazing me be- cause I am one of the freshest, greenest. humans that ever entered 'the portals of a high school. Of course, coming straight from the select Miss Shinn's, I thought that I knew it all, but when these same ignorant Sophomores were through I was convinced that I didn't know a thing. The second day that I was here they seemed to become aware of my presence and the third day they were ready to bid me wel- come. That morning Dad brought me to school and I was in the pink of perfection when I entered the door. There I was met by five girls who escorted me to the dressing room where about twenty more were assembled. I didn't know that they were all Sophomores. I thought that they were unusually sociable, but alas all my illusions soon vanished. They told me tha't all Freshmen must go through certain ordeals before they became full-fledged students. They read me a lot of rules, of which they gave me 'a copy. and then performed the ordeal. They took down my hair which I had arranged with such loving care that morning and braided it into six tight pig tails. each of which they tied with .1 diderent colored ribbon. I was a sight! The girls howled with laugh- ter. Just then the bell rang and they left me alone in misery. At first I was angry and was on 'the point of going to the prin- cipal, but just then I happened to get a II!-'-I-ev-Nh-I glimpse of myself in the mirror. I had to hold my sides and roar. My common sense told me that the Sophs thought that I would rather miss class 'than be laughed at. I stood still a min- ute and asked myself, Are you game? lThat's high school slangi. I replied to my question, I am. All Freshmen are warned and cautioned against being late for class but this par- ticular morning I wasn't afraid. I would wait until the class was deep in the les- son and then I would appear. What a sen- sation I would create! And let me an- nounce that it was some sensation! The class went wild and the teacher couldn't control them. She wrote a little note and sent me to the office with it. You might think that I was afraid to go to the of- fice but strange to relate I was not. The principal thought that I was the one who was pla.ying the joke and I allowed him to think so. He gave me a pretty stiff lec- ture but I didn't mind it because I happened to spy a twinkle way back in the corner of his eye. Then he sent me down to rearrange my hair. There are several Sophs in the his- tory class and two of them are girls. When I reappeared they glanced at me anxiously, but I smiled sweetly and took my seat. Of course they expected that I had told and that it would soon be their turn to go to the office. But when the day passed and nothing happened, 'they seemed relieved. The next moming the whole twenty met me at the door and I wondered what would happen. Each girl stepped forward and shook hands with me. I was feeling puffed up and was about to pat myself on the back when I overheard one girl say. 'Tordy acted more like a Sophomore than a measly little scrub. This made me feel pretty small and I resolved to he the meek- est Freshman of the flock. But I could never live up to a resolution and besides you know Freshmen are Freshmen just as pigs is pigs. Consequently I get my nose pulled quite often. I've signed for Hgyml' work and basket- ball. I also belong' to the tennis club. Next spring' the girls are going' to have a base- ball team. I think I'll try out for pitcher. Spring is a, long way off and I may be able to throw a ball straight before that time. But I'm afraid I'll throw it too straight and hit the batter. I'm taking History, English, Algebra, German and Physieal Geography. I't's all lots of fun and vfully interesting. Les- sons aren't very hard and I find that witlh la. little extra work Iill get a. passing mark. Well, I will have to stop now and do 'that little extra work. Good-bye, lots of love from, Your Freshie Friend, Cordy Johnson. P. S. Every Freshman thinks that his class is the greatest institution on earth. But I found that the rest of the school doesn't think so and that the Sophomores think that their sole duty in life is to cor- reeit. and manage the morals and manners of those low beings, sometimes called Freshmen, but more frequently Scrubs Oh I tell you it's great to be a Scrub in Lawrence but Mae I'm long-ing for the time wlhen I shall be a Sophomore.

When you speak of work or of speed. There's nothing that we lack or necd. Now let me explain one by one Who we are and what we have done. Ruth her cooking does first rate, Some man'll find her a good mate. IIe'll have to eat lunch with a smile And often have to wait a while. Henry oft explosions has Trying to manufacture gas. He takes away the heat too lane And just escapes a mournful fate. Chick in Latin has gained renown. He oft has hic and hoc turned 'round But in his class he stands ahead Or next to it his teacher said. Raymond does always want 'lhe facts The Prof. explains them out in acts, If Raymond should more points desire He might arouse the Prof's just ire. Now what can I of Andrew say Who sits adreaming all the day. Of what he thinks, I'm in the dark His thoughts are on 'the sea embarked. Henry has much to learn as yet He is the cooking class' pet. He sits there shyly looking on While all the girls around him throng. Vernon is perfect in one art For he has won a Freshman's heart There's nothing more left to explain You've all been -there-he's not to blame. Emma's a lonely girl this year She misses n, graduate I fear. She sits and dreams for hours at a time. And to disturb her would he a crime.

PNIB'6 7 7 I M ' he va nr he 4 an f 1 f 1 1 f 4 N NYXNSXRNNXXRS iNTRXSRSRRSXYii N A boy about eighteen years of age, sat in the drawing room of an old southern Alabama mansion. Suddenly he rose rest- lessly to his full height. Into his eyes crept a. look of wistful longing, as he lifted his violin and passed his fingers caress- ingly over it. As he gently drew the bow across the strings, soft, sad strains of exquisite music floated through the large French windows and drifted away among the stately old trees and beautiful shrub- bery. All unconscious of time, he played softly on, pausing now and then to gaze unseeingly before him. A soft step was heard in the hall and a tall woman entered the room. She was evidenitly his mother, for there was .a striking resemblance between the two. Ralph, she said in a voice, refined and low, 'fDo stop that sad music! What is ailing you? You know mother, he answered some- what irritably. But, my son, do you want to really go to that horrid wild West? Yes Oh, Ralph, I thought I could have you stay here and grow up a gentleman ! Yes, mother, but ean't there be gentle- men in the West as well as in the East? I don't know about that, she answered doubtfully. Father always says that the outward appearance doesn't make the gentleman, but that which is in his heart. Mrs. Brown looked at the boy -thought- fully, then said, Do you really want to goopi I sure do, he replied eagerly. Well then, you will have to settle it with father. The boy kissed his motfher and hurried away in search of his father. Father and son had a long talk together, which ended in Ralph having his own way. X Exactly a week later Ralph hurried through tfhe hall on his way to the car- riage, which was waiting. At the door he was stopped by a slender girl with eyes and hair considerably lighter than his own. She clung to him with her arms abou-t. his neck. I wish I were going with you, she whispered. So do I, Sis, he answered, but you ca.n't, Who'd stay and comfort mother? Besides the West's no place for girls like you. Good-bye Dot. He kissed her and was gone. The brown eyes brimmed with tea-rs as they saw the horses trot briskly down the avenue. A few minutes later he was being rapidly whirled away. Away from home! Into the world! Out of the face of his father, stern with suppressed feeling, shone his gentle eyes. Again he felt the grip that made his fin- gers ache and heard that familiar voice, he so loved, My son, my son, Good-bye! 'tDear Father, he murmured and then turned to divert himself with the objects whirling by. At first the country through which he passed was well known to him. Gradually it all grew strange. In Colorado the rail- way stopped abruptly at a. small station called Redding. Ralph looked about him w'hen he stepped from the train and saw only a few shanties, strangly, lonely-look- ing out there in the wide plains covered with sage brush. While he stood there a sawed off man in a great felt hat and chaps came up to him. The twitehina' of his sandy mustache plainly indicated the presence of a quid of tobacco com- fortably stowed in his cheek. Yellow hair and, big bushy eye-brows were given force by the blue eyes which gleamed wickedly. Such a face few people liked. He stared lglmgty-Twol at Ralph for -a. moment and then spoke in u deep voice. Air you the young feller -that is due for the Star Rauch? Yes, replied Ralph, I am. Wal, continued the cowboy, l'm Sandy Benard, my right name be John, but you see everybody calls me Sandy. I guess we'll be goin'. He led the way to a pair of bronchus standing in the shade of one of the shan- ties. Ralph followed silently, inwardly amused at his companion. They mounted and rode away through the trackless plain. The Easteruer was by no means asleep. They were surrounded on every side barren plains, only broken here and there by a. clump of sage brush, which occasion- ally held a frightened rabbit or 11 hopping horntoad. The dim purple mountains in the distance formed a fringe for the vast plains. The men rode in silence which was almost unbroken. Sandy stole sly glances at his companion. He saw a youth with honest eyes, clear brow and deter- minedly set chin. a face wholly unafraid. That night they camped at a water- hole. After cooking and eating their sup- pers, they rolled up in their blankets and slept soundlv beneath the stars. It was Sunday morning when they ar- rived at the Star Ranch. The ranch was in the low foot-hills. The ra.mbling ranch house was approached from the front. It was made of adobe with some clay. All of the buildings around the place were as neat as the house itself. As the horse- men rode to the door the owner of the ranch, a middle aged man, came out. He approached Ralph in a brisk, authoritative manner and received him graciously. Af- ter the Boss, as he was called by all the eowboys, had arranged all matters of im- portance with Ralph, Sandy escorted him to the bunk house where the cowboys' quarters were. At first the men treated him distantly. This did not matter much to Ralph for he had his work to do and he did it faith- fully, It was not long until they saw that he was honest and wanted to work. When he first came to the ranch the men had teased him incessantly about his white ll'i'.2,.n...l hands,- Lady fingers, they called them. This was rather embarrassing, but he soon succeeded in getting them as brown and rough as the others. About -a. week after he came, an old In- dian rode np to the ranch on a beautiful black horse. Ralph and Sandy were sit- ting in the shade fixing their saddles. Ralph was silently admiring' the animal when Sandy volunteered That thar lndi'..n is a old risident of the country and ain't never been taken to a. risarvation. What cher thinkin' about? Ralph only started slightly and grinned. Party line nag' he's ridin', aiu't it? With these words Sandy's eyes narrowed to mere slits in his rough, sunburned face and searched Ralph's face like cold points of blue steel. lle found no clue for sus- picion and shifted his gaze again to the horse, where it rested longingly. lle sud- denly spied a fly near the toe of his boot, and spat his vengeance at it. The old chief had seen Ralph and had trusted him instantly. Ralph went about his work again, but he had not forgotten the horse. He decided to have it. The new cowboy was being watched all the time although he did not rea.lize it. The boss was thinking' about retiring amd was in need of a reliable foreman. He was attracted to Ralph and questioned the men regarding him. YVhen Ralph Brown had been at the Star Ranch for a few months, a letter was handed to him by one of the men. Ile looked at it curiously, it was not from home for it bore no postmark. On tearing it open he found a slip of paper on which was written in a cramped hand: mr r brown der ser. red feather is goin to dar happy huntin groan and want you to hav black hawk. give him a home 'tred feather. Ralph gazed at the letter in bewilder- ment. Black Hawk! For him! llleditating a moment he turned and went in search of the letter. the the Boss. After reading Boss looked at the young man. Will you take him? he asked simply. Ralph nodded. The older 'man laid a hand on his Feather was time he ever and get your The young shoulder and said, Red fond of yo11 from the tirst laid eyes on you. Now go horse. man mounted his pi11to and rode away to Red Feather's hut. On knocking at the door, he received a faint, Come. Entering, he found himself i11 a dark room. Its furniture consisted of a. chair, ai stove and a bed, on wl1icl1 the old man lay. Ralph we11t quickly to the bed side and held the offered hand in si- lence. Finally Red Feather spoke. lt was i11 a low voice, Red Feather-is-goin- to-the-llappy-Hunting-Grounds. Take --Black-Hawk.-Take good-care-of him-always. Ralph promised he would and the old man closed his eyes with a sigh. Red Feather was IIOXV with the Great Spirit. In the stable Ralph found the black horse. For a while he gazed at him fondly, then mounted and rode sadly away. A week later the Boss summoned him to the office. An hour or more passed be- fore he again reappeared. He was now foreman of the Star Ranch. The other cowboys, with the exception of Sandy, heard the news joyfully. They had learned to love l1im. Sandy eyed him from a dis- tance with e11vy. He was exceedinglggjeal- ous of Ralph. One day Sandy was wandering about the buildings i11 a very black mood. He passed the open door of Ralph's office in his W'Hlld6l'iI1,2' and glancing in he found it vacant. A sudden impulse to do Ralph harm seized l1in1. Ile quickly had a pe11 in his fingers a11d Ralpl1's account book open. Ill a minute he had changed several num- bers a11d taken so-me bills from the table and was gone just as the foreman was about to enter an opposite door. Ralph discovered the fix up in his num- bers and worked for hours to straighten it o11t but was unsuccessful. VVhen the Boss heard of it. he investigated it but without res11lt. Accordingly Ralph was discharged. The young man felt his disgrace very keenly. After selling Black Hawk, much against his will he left the country. The boys could not believe him guilty. Ilis friend Jack, was sure that he was not. O11e bright June mor11ing', when all out doors was alive and glad, a da1'k figure was seen against the distant horizon by tl1e cowboys of the Star Ranch. As it drew nearer and became more distinct, they be- gan speculating as to the idently of the rider. That's that kid, Brown 011 Black Hawk ! ejaculated Jack. Surely it could not be he! Yes he was coming directly toward them. The cow- boys raised a joyful yell which was an- swered by a well-known shout. Black Hawk, as if knowing that this was home, bore his rider up to tl1e group with a dash. There followed a great deal of hand-shaking and joyful exclamations. Where have yo11 been? asked Jack, slapping Ralph affectionately 11pon the shoulder. The rest were like a bunch of eager school-boys. Tell the whole story, someone cried. There's not much to tell, began Ralph. Only when I left this ranch I was dis- gusted with the West and decided to go home. I got as far as Kansas City when my funds ran low so I had to stop. I hunted work for a week before I' finally landed a job as reporter for a small paper. By the time I had earned enough for a ticket home l had no desire to go. Instead I had all intense yearning for the West and the free open life of the plainsf' he paused and ran his ha11d earressingly over the glossy mane of Black Hawk. The horse rubbed his nose against Ralph's shoulder, and for you, too, Black Hawk, he continued, I arrived in Wyoming a few weeks ago. l Wa.sn't brave eno11gh to face you just then. l didn't like the country so well a11d besides work was scarce. Finally I found myself in these mountains. I just felt sure that you fellows didn't believe me crooked in spite of the dope the Boss had on me. And we didn't, the boys replied, all speaking at once. You aren't of that sneaking kind. Thankee, for the compliment, boys, grinned Ralph. But what became of that man, Mitchell, Igihiay-Four! who bought this there nag off yon? asked one man u moment later. Search me, said Ralph. I seen Sandy ridin' that thar hoss over in Reddin' last week,-sure thing-. 0h! Go oul You were seein' soldiers by the half dozen too, put in Jack. Not on your life, I warn't indulgin'. Fellows, interrupted Ralph, I'm here today with sad news for you. I wouldn't have been here otherwise.-Sandy's dead- stone dead. Whatcher mean? All eyes were turned on the speaker in bewilderment. Ralph drew a pack of papers from his pocket and selected a dirty piece of an old envelope from the others. Read that, he said, It's my pass port into respectable society and back to my honor. Just then the Boss came out of thc cor- ral carrying a coil of rope in his hand. Jack read. 'tl took those bills,-Sandy. For a moment the truth seemed to per- colate slowly, then a lusty shout set the buildings ringing. Glad ha-nds seemed to extend out of space. Ralph saw them through tear dimmed eyes, thinking, these are friends indeed. After these expressions of gladness and trust were completed, Ralph spoke in his most solemn tones. All heads were bowed the moment the rolling tones broke upon their ears. Fellows, he said, I left his body un- der a. tree at Willow Watering. about four hours ride to the north east on the Red- ding Trail. We must get him away bc- fore night or the coyotes will. What's eating you fellows? the voice of the Boss was cool. No one spoke. Ralph's eyes met those of his former em- ployer almost haughtily. Well Brown, What brings you back? C 'He's innocent. Jack put in before ' my-Furl Ralph could answer, and liere's the proof. The Boss read the paper, extending his free hand, gripped Ralplfs and said, For- give me! I have never believed it of you in spite of the evidence! There was no other way. I had to discharge you. Sandy's lying dead away out there, Boss. I came upon him when I was on my way to Mitchell's with this horse. Ile was within a few yards of Willow Wat- ering. His eyes were bloodshot and his hands bleeding, his knees stuck through his trousers swollen and bruised. What was the matter? What happened to him? Rattler. I-Ie raved for hours and about midnight sat up straight and wild-eyed gazed at me. Are you Brown? he demanded at last. Yes. Wal, I reckon as now I've told you, I suppose you're glad to see me dying. Ile wouldn't lie down, Ross, but gazed at the stars a few minutes. Suddenly he fumbled about his clothing. He could not articulate: his hands fell helplessly to his side and he sank back against the sad- dle. His lips were moving. Piece paper- pencil, were all I heard. He seemed to sleep. I got there but could not arouse him. At sunrise he turned his head and reached for the paper, trying to wrilte. I guided his hand as he mumbled. I took -those-bills.-Sandy. Ile was trying to thank me out of that bruised and broken body of his. Poor unfortunate fellow! Now let's bring him home. That night at sunset. Ralph drove the buckboard into the circle of buildings. The body of Sandy lay on a heap of straw in the bottom. Ralph guided the horses into yard thinking of his first coming to the the West. Now he could go home and face his father. Ile had proven his lmnesty. M. S. 'l8. 2. f W Z I Z2 24 74 9: , , X, Z W X 2 7 Qfj ff 9 , ZZ 3:2 ?Z 7 , M is w Z W 7 Z 4 -5' W 'V 3 4-QQ D 3 'C .53 Q N N W ss XN QW -'l'O ETS an . Y!

Ilinur will .llinh a mag 'I Gloom had laid his heavy hand upon the three boys who sat in Room 21, in Tait's Hall, of The Hamilton Military Academy. They were Jack Daulton, Senior, captain and center of the basket ball team, Ray Woodrud, Senior, and forward on the basket ball team, and Willie Dustin, plain Freshman. Talk about your luck. growled Jack, Here are Ray and I waiting to be put in the guard-house and the championship game with Hilton coming oi a week from Saturday night. Besides I suppose Betty and Carol are about crazy because they haven't heard from us since last Saturday. I-t's all your faulty Dusty. If you had held on to those letters we would be in the gym now instead of waiting to be escorted to the guard-house. You fellows make me tired l snorted Willie. As long as Nancy and I delivered your messages safely at the risk of our own necks it was all right. But because I let one slip you are ready to call me seven kinds of a fool and then some, and here I am risking my life for you again. If I'm caught here it will be the guard-house for little Willie. But I'll tell you what I'll do. Wednesday, after the team passes the guard-house you fellows drop a couple of notes out of the window and yours truly will deliver them. Hall will be in his study and there will be no chance of being caught. I'll- but just then footsteps were heard approaching the door so Willie beat a hasty retreat down the fire escape. Cadets Daulton and Woodruff were to be conined in the guard-house Tuesday at 9 p. m., to await a general courtfmartial. Their oiense was the most serious in the history of the school. They had been cor- responding with two girls of the Garwood Seminary and two of the letters fell into the hands of the head master of Hamilton. Waldon Hall. I-'Fizz-a.l ' 'Q' Z iv Z Z Z Z f 7 ,4 f M pd W fd 7! -x Madame wood, was Mr. Hall's bitterest enemy and he refused to allow his boys to have any- thing to do with her girls. She upheld the same rule in her school. Several years before they had been engaged but had quar- reled over some trivial matter and had not spoken since. Wednesday afternoon at four o'clock the basket ball team passed the guard-house on the way to the gym. Ten minutes later footsteps were heard on the walk and two notes dropped at the feet of Mr. Hall, who had just rounded the corner of the guard- house. He picked thm up, glanced at the inscription, frowned and put them in his pocket. After a minute of deliberation he proceeded on his way. Five minutes la-ter Dusty came running down the path. Fellows , he called softly as he reached the window. No answer. He called again. Two heads appeared at the window. What's wanted? asked Ray. Where are the letters? asked Willie. The letters? Didn't you get them? We dropped them out about five minutes ago when you passed. I just got here. Wheelan kept me for algebra. Who is on guard today? Touts Reynolds. I-Ie'd help us out of trouble so go and ask him if he knows anything about the letters. In a few minutes Willie was back with a look of despair upon his countenance. Isle says that Hall came down with some orders a little while ago and went back this way. Great Scott! Isn't that just our luck! exclaimed Jack. Now we'll get it for sure. No chance of playing a week from Saturday night now. You're the best mes- senger I ever saw, Dusty. You conldn't buy a postage stamp without losing it before it crossed the counter. You make Eliza Brandon, Dean at Gar- D me tired. Don't ever suggest anything to me again. Aw shut up! You fellows must think I'm your goat. l hope llall gives you the limit, and with that the cruel Willie made for the gym. Monday at two o'clock the court con- vened. Just as the case was called a. note was handed to Mr. Hall. This is what he read: Dear YValdon: Last night as I was making my usual round of visits I found one of my students. Elizabeth XYall, crying as if her heart would break. On inquir- ing into the cause I learned that she was crying because she had not heard from Jack Daulton of your school, since a week ago last Saturday. In- stead of being angry I was sorry and my heart went out to her. I thought at once of you and of our quarrel of Several years ago. Ivaldon, I am sorry for I know now that I was wrong. I ask your forgiveness. 1 I also ask that you let your boys join with my girls in giving their com- mencement dance. Atfectionately yours, Eliza. Mr. Hall looked up and smiled as he noted the gloomy faces of the cadets in front of him. I withdraw my charges against Cadets Daulton and Woodruff and reinstate them in their former position. Also I wish to state that you will be joined by the girls of Garwood Seminary at your commence- ment. , he said. Bedlam broke loose.

Practical work, has been our motto all winter. and to keep us properly interested in our work we have, after a few weeks of all kinds of work. been allowed to make various small articles the process of making' which leads to thoroug-hness and to an experience which places us upon a firmer footing' and inspires each student with more contidence in his ability. Some of the work is difficult and trying, but in the end we have all enjoyed our small accom- plishments. In our shop we lack many conveniences, but this need of various articles has in- spired initiative and made us resourceful. YYe supply these articles by making' them ourselves and thus learn to attain results under difficulties. Our processes have involved heating? iron and steel of various compositions to proper temperatures for shaping, also the shap- ing, bending and welding of iron and steel of a high temper. We turn out genuine hand made tools, shaped, polished and tempered. Among these articles are cold chisels, wrenches, screw drivers. different kinds of hammers flatters and hot eye cutters, drawing and bench knives, and hack saws. Many of these articles we color in var- ious ways in the tire and with acids and other metals. There is no way of judging how much is done during the term by examining our exhibit, for not more than 3, third of our actual work can be shown on account ot' our economical phase of the work which involves repeated use of various articles and scraps for other steps and phases of the course. A visit to the shop any day will enable you to get 21 fair notion of the character and importance of this department and to understand how intifmately it is related to Y the everyday life of ranch work.

Ii Alhambra met Liberty on the latter's eourt. Both teams entered with the spirit of the game written on their faees, as this was to deeide the ehampiou- ship of' the eounfy. A few minutes after the game started l ranees Ilrown sprained her ankle and Mae Roberts took her plaee. The game was as snappy as eould be wished for and the erowd went wild with enthusiasm. Liberty seored first and kept the lead throughout the game. The seore at the end of' the first halt' stood lfi-T in favor of' Liberty.

School opened in August with promising football material. During the second school week the boys met. and elected llenry Winfree, manager, and Edward He- vey. captain, of the football team. Two weeks later training was going on in earn- est in spite of the warm weather. It was found that we were in argent need of a coach and football suits. When the trus- tees heard of our needs, they kindly do- nated forty dollars M2401 to us. We are all grateful to them for their keen interest in our athletic afTairs, and it was their aid that made us as successful as we were. We secured the services of Ray Shafer. an ex- perienced football player, to coach us. We were a green squad that went through the first maneuvers and there seemed little hope of learning the scientific part of the game. But Ray proved equal to the conditions and we were soon acquiring some ideas of Rug- by. At first it was hard work for the cap- tain and manager to get some of the boys to come out to practice regularly. But gradually they became more enthusiastic, and, in spite of our inexperience in Rugby. much was accomplished. RIVERVIEW VS. LIBERTY We challenged Riverview High of Anti- och to play us 9, practice game on Septem- ber 19th, as we desired to have some prac- tical experience before the scheduled games in October. The Riverview boys, however. were experienced in the game and their knowledge of' it caused them to triumph. Their scrum was heavier, but proved little better than ours. if any. They excelled in the hack field. Their men could dodge. tackle and pass. while we It-'::.',......l s k?3NfRXsY'ifi could not. However, we held our own and several of the boys showed up well. After two hard fought halves the game ended with the score of 18-0 in their favor. We profited by our experience. MT. DIABLO VS. LIBERTY October 10th marked the opening of the League schedule and Mt. Diablo High of Concord journeyed over to play us on the local gridiron. They were a clean bunch of players and too much for us. During the first half we held them down and played good ball. When the whistle blew the score stood 12-0 in Mt. Diablols favor. During the second half our boys seemed t.o lose faith in themselves and our oppo- nents began to pile up a number of points. At the end of the game the score was 37- 0. RIVERVIEW VS. LIBERTY In spite of our former defeats, we were not disheartened and played our league game with Riverview on Oct 24th on our home grounds. But, after two weeks of drilling and coaching we did not come up to expectations. The first half was very Liberty did her best playing. Our tackling and running was better. Our forwards did well but the back field lacked pep In 'the second half we met our downfall and in spite of 1'epeated efforts to cross the line for a try the game ended with another goose egg for Liberty and 45 points tabulated on the score board for Riverview. SAN RAMON VS. LIBERTY The boys practiced hard the following week and were confident of victory in the game with San Ramon High of Danville on Oct. 3lst. Richard Wallace having re- turned to high school, our team was greatly strengthened. It was in this game that the exciting and drilling of f'oaeh Shafer showed to per- l't-etion. even though the game was sonie- xx hat rough. Williamson, one of our best and swiftest baek lield men, was the tirwt Liberty man to make a try. Swift soon followed. Finally, at the end of the see- ond half the st-ore stood 17-0 in Libertyk favor. The Danville girls furnished us with a Hue meal and we eertainly appreciated it. ALHAMBRA YS. Ll BERTY We were seheduled to play Alhambra at Martinez on Or-t. 17th, but did not go on field, the first half ended with neither side having seored. When the eeeond half started, we were determined to win and began with the kiek-off. The ball eontinued to see-saw. now one side on the offensive and now the Second half other. 'Toward the end of the the Alhambra left wing' ran right wing' and over near the around our edge of the field The toneli line was not distingfuisli- able at that point, while the 5 yard line was. The opponent ran aeross the line that eonld be seen and our right wing Jfigl v-l i15 f ' BOYS' BASKET BALL TEAM Top Row: Vernon Cakebread, Henry Winfree, XValter Swift. Joe Hand.

Zird the trustees kindly grave the high sr-hool a vaeation, so we went down intending' to sealp the eounty seat team. The game eommeneed about 3:10 and we had the ball on their 25 yard line nearly all of the first half. Alhambra did not hire a referee from V. t'. or Stanford, as the eounty rules preseribe, but one from Crockett. Many times we were on the point of erossing' the goal line, but were for:-ed baek. After see-sawing aeross the thinking' he had passed 'ouit of bounds stopped running. The result was a try for Alhambra and it was also converted. It was too near the end for us to get a tryg however. we did our best. The see- ond half ended with the score of 5-0 in favor ot' Alhambra. We went home feeling that we did not have quite a square deal and confident we could beat them in another graine. JOHN SWETT VS. LIBERTY The final game of the league was played IFR? l here on Nov. Tth with John Swett Iligh ot' Urockett. They came with the intention of beating us good ami proper , as they did two years ago. llowever, we gave them a surprise. Of all the games this was the best. All our boys were in fighting trim and Shafer was pleased with our showing. Our serum worked tine and the back field was also better than usual. Almost immediately af- ter the kick-otT in the tirst half, Barkley crossed the line and scored 3 points for Liberty. We failed to convert and for the rest of the first half it was about an equal tight. Gradually, Crockett forced us back and forced their way, after many scrums, over the goal line. When the whistle blew the score stood 3-3. During the second half we had the bail in our territory almost continually. Our scrum seemed to be getting better all the time and Joe Hand, our hook, got the ball out on our side line continually. After many scrums and rucks on our 5 yard line the ball was taken over, but we failed to convert. In a minute or so the Whistle blew and the score stood 6-3 in our favor. In honor of our victory Coach Shafer treated us to soda water at the Teacup Inn. .11 BASKET BALL Liberty was very successful in basket ball this year. Immediately after foot- ball was over, the boys commenced prac- tice. Joe Hand was elected captain, and Walter Swift, manager. A great interest was taken in the game and there was much material to pick from. Through the gener- osity of Bruns Brothers. we were allowed to practice in the garage when the weather was bad. The county schedule was ar- ranged in December, and the games were to be played in January. Riverview, Al- hambra and Liberty were the only schools having boy's teams that were represented. Riverview forfeited her games to Liberty and Alhambra, so we only needed to de- feat the boys from the county seat, to win the county championship. LIBERTY VS. TOWN TEAM On Friday evening. Jan. 15. we had a P I,F?:-Oael practice game with n home tca.m of for- mer high school boys. lt was a very lively game throughout and Liberty always kept the lead. The game ended with the score 18-L21 in favor ot' Liberty. I,lBl'Ili'l'Y VS. ALIIAMBRA Saturday evening. Feb. 6, the Alhambra team of Martinez came up to Brentwood with the best intentions. However, they were somewhat surprised. The boys prac- ticed hard during' the week preceding the game and were in good trim. The game commenced immediately after the girls had finished, and was exciting from the start. Liberty made a number of goals within a few minutes. The Alhambra guards were kept on a lively move by our fast forwards, while their forwards tried time and again to ditch our guards, but without avail. At the end of the first half Liberty was con- siderably in the lead. The second half started with a rush. Alhambrafs fighting' spirit was up, but her forwards could not find the basket ex- cept on special occasions. When the whis- tle blew at the end of the last half thc- score stood 26-12. Liberty had won her first boy's basket-ball pennant. We received the championship pennant in the latter part of March and it was set up on the wall in the assembly hall. There it hangs beside the girl's pennant, as a proof of Libei'ty's ability ii. basket-ball. WINNERS OF THE L , The following have won the block L for faithful practice and participating' in four or more football games: 1915. Walter Swift, Joseph Hand. Alvin Howard. 1916. Henry Barkley. Henry Winfrec. Edward Hevey, Vernon Cakebread. 1917. Frank Shellenberger, Aubrey Wil- liamson, Flitford McNamara, James li'a.ke- bread. 19l8. Stanley Nunn, John Suffern. TRACK MEET The animal track meet was held in Pon- cord. April 2-l. The Liberty men were: J. Hand. R. Fox, f'. Mr-Numara. A. Rob- erts, F. Shcllenbcrger. W. Swift, and A. Williamson. 'l'he boys had a very poor truck on which to practice and with no coach they found it dillicult to induce any one to train prop- erly or sufficiently. The captain, YV. Swift and manager, H. Winfree did the best they could under trying' conditions and deserve credit for putting a team in the meet. Two of the team, H. Winfree and A. Howard were, at the last moment, unable to go. W. Swift took third place in the 4-10 and 880 yd. UC. McNamara third place in the ham- mer: aud our relay team, composed of Swift, Hand. Williamson, Roberts, and Cakebread, took third place. Let ns hope that the trustees will em- ploy a young' man on the faculty for next A L A . year who can lead us in all our sports. I i QJ i TRACK TEAM Page I IFN! y -Two ru tif N t .Mn The soeial events of our sehool days are good times to be remembered through life. Let us live over again those of this year. First :-On Thursday evening, September 10, 1914. the frightened, shining, cleanly- washed faees of the Freshmen. appeared tilnidly. in the door-way of Coates' Hall. The amusement. started by playing games but as usual. the greater part of the evening was devoted to dancing. Freshmen. up- per elassmen, and the Alumni joined in the fun. At twelve o'eloek, signs of drowsiness were notieed among the little ones, so we fed them with dainty refreshments made and served by the girls of the eooking elass. The little Freshmen eertainly looked sweet as they sat at t.he table with a green bib tueked about the neek of eaeh. As you well know, our rules forbid festivities after twelve c'eloek. We do not eount eat- inzr a festivity so it was almost one 0'f'lfN'k before we started for home. Tllli HAY RIDE Un the evening of 04-tober 2nd, 1914. the Juniors Have a llay Ride. in honor of the Seniors. The jolly erowd gathered at Liberty about seven thirty and piled into a lumber wagon. This wagon not being large enough They' Well! Ullf of town a few miles and, after unloading the hay from a header- bed. elambered in, young folks and teaeh- fgdtginrrel lim 2 ers, and started for the Marsh Vreek sehool house. Before they real-hed their destination, the horses refused to go any further, so the erowd agreed to stop and eat their lunch. After apples. pieees oi' eake, and sandwiches had been tucked away, they started home. Alas! when they had gone but a few miles the wagon broke down. and the erowd had to walk. Nevertheless we all enjoyed the ride. On Deeember 12. 191-1, the annual Senior Hall, was given by members of the elass. The hall was artistieally deeorated with holly berries and mistletoe. The Seniors wore badges of orange and blaek, those being the elass eolors, and at-ted as floor managers. Delightful musie was provided by the Shafer K 0'IIara Orehestra. At twelve o'elor-k a Tamale Supper was served. and after eating, all went home deelaring. il to be one of the best times of the season. Saturday evening. February li, 1915, at the elose ot' a double-header basket ball game, the students of l.. l'. ll. S. gave a danee in honor of the Martinez girls and boys. The atTair was given in l'oates' llall, and the musie was provided by the Shafer K Wllara Orehestra. The danee elosed at twelve o'eloek, and all went home. the visitors deelaring that they had had a de- lightful time. f 7 XX xx x TflTl5ikffi,iQfi1l0 X T.tiSXNSQQIiSSLX1X'l32XTiSNby of if f P IIIIIHI' Zig E111 EI I I1 -II ' 4BbXYN'WXNwf3XNiTQX?T SM XX il 529 X On the evening' of Marvh 19, 1915, the Luey Ilarrington .,,,,,,,.,,.,,,,,,,, Polly Barkley Junior Class presented His linele John Mrs. Slaters.. .,....,,,,,,,, Einnial Sln-llenberg'er at Foates' llall. before a large and appre- eiative audience.

If not, why not? Did it ever occur to you that a bank account, even though it be a small one, is the safest means of doing business? Your checks are the best receipts for all bills paid, and your funds will be neither lost nor stolen from our vaults. Sometimes bills are sent out by mistake after they have been paid. If you pay by check, however, the cancelled checks are returned to you and can be pro- duced as receipts. Checking accounts are, therefore, more than a convenience-they are an insurance against overpayment. Your checking account will be welcomed at this bank, where you are assured of absolute security and the most courteous service. ANK OF BRE TWOOD COMMERCIAL R G Dean, President Lee Durham, Cashier.

Ilivlix ifrankfurtrrh Erihr Felix Frankfurther was a butcher as you well may know by his title. A short girl with red curly locks and a little turned up, freckled nose entered the butcher shop one day, with her wobbly, bowlegged dog, Needles. She and Felix were very well acquainted. The first day Felix met her he said to himself, Therc's the girl for me, and straightway proceedel to court Sapphire. Finally he asked her to become his wife. The day of their marriage ap- proached and all was in readiness but' no Sapphire appeared. Felix waited and waited and waited which was about ten minutes, and finally growing' impatient he started in the direction of Sapphire's nome to find her if he could. Meanwhile Sapphire, who had deoided that she cared nought for marriage, fled to the feed stable and there hid in the bar- ley bin. As she sat there all huddled up Felix's voice could be heard through the c-racks calling. Sapphire! Sapphire! My darling, for the love of Mike appear, and make me a happy man once more. Sapphire upon hearing the sad and sor- rowful voice of Felix began to weep. When the rooster, who was picking up kernels of barley near by, heard the sobs, he be- came frightened and broke the speed limit. He hurried from the place, making such a noise that Felix's attention was drawn at once towards the bin which con- cealed his sobbing Sapphire. At a glance he had taken in the situation. Then lift- ing' the lid. he helped out his long, lost love, brushing' the barley from her hair while doing' so. She sobbed out her troubles on his spotless white vest, which was no longer spotless. Well Pet, brace up and we'll have a wedding after all, he comforted, pressing' her hands. Ruth Lent.

Deer Bill :-Gosh, but it's lonesome sinee away, don't seem like nothin's Yestiddy was April Fools and we had a great time, but I kinda wish we ha,dn't. I aint been able to set down senee o'eloek last nite, when pa got you went the saim. about six home. IVell, you know them to white kittens your ma gave mine when she went away? Well you know the darn things are always gettin my dog in trouble, the one I got from lied Elkins. They pest and tease around him and you know he's a good dog but theres some things he ean't stand and eats is one, and so he lights out and ehases em, and then when ma eomes out and sees her kittens stuek upon the fenee with their tales swelled up and there eyes poppin out a.nd jest spittin like the tire when ftaou throw water on it, why she ties poor Spotty up and then tells pa, and pa says: 'tGues we'll have to get rid ot' that dog. So yestiddy, that erosseyed Smith kid and me, we got those kittens and tied there tales together and slung em over the elose-line, then I hollered to ma to eome and see the airship and jest as she got to the baek dore I yelled April Fool! and beet it. Say, you oughta seen them eats! I thought they liked eaeh other but the way they went to it when they was slung over that elose-line you'da. thought they su1'e had it in for eaeh other. They elawed and spit and seratehed and bit and there was white hare aflying in every dureetion. Ma didn't ask where the airship was, just yelled, Oh my poor kittens! and I didn't wait to hear no more, but erawled through the hole in the fense and hiked through the baek alley to sehool. You know that the new girl with the long hare sets in front of' me now. Well xx XXX? X: she's a. kinda niee kid, gave me some gum last week, but she's awful stuek on herself and loves that brade of hare more than anything. Keeps switehin it around in my fave all the time, so yestiddy I pieked it up reel quiet, took my gum out of my mouth tit was the wad she gave me tool rapped it around the end of her brade and then plastered it down to my desk. Gosh, I never knew gum would stiek so. Well she sat still long enuf to let it git hard then the teeeher ealled on her to read. She tried to git up but that brade was stuek fast a.nd so she stuek. The teeeher asked what was the matter but she never sed a, word, jest started in to ery and then the teec-her eame down to see what was the matter. When she found out she jumped on me rite away never even asked who done it or nothin, and there I was studyin just as hard as you please. She gave me an awful liekin but that girl howled louder than I did when the teacher sed she guessed she'd have to eut the end of her hare off, she jest bellered like a young ealf and all that fuss over a measly old brade of hare. Gosh aint girls the queer things? Y lVell when I got home for luneh I walked in like nothin had happened, but I was shakim in my boots. Ma's eyes was kinda red and she says, Robert, tyou know ma means business when she says Robert, its generally Bobbie.l Robe1t I shall tell your father on you and he will punish you when 'he eomes home this evening. I kinda, wished she'd waited till after luneh beelause I eouldn't eat mueh then but she did.n't say anything more. Nothin happened in the afternoon eeptin that Jaek Rhodes got a lir-kin for laughin at the new girl's hare, she's got about 6 imtlwg out. off. She dont set in front of me no mol'e but it wouldnt matter it' she Page I Eighteen did, her hare's too short to fasten now and besides l havent any more gum. But I sure got an awful wallopin from pa that night. l ate supper off the kitehen table, standin up and today the teeeher asked me it' there was a pin stiekiu me l wiggled around so mueh. But l'll get even with that pesky girl and them darned eats for the two liekins they eaused me. Neither eats nor girls is any good no how. Yours, Robert B. Ames Jr. P. S.

Dear Bill:-Say Bill, maybe you wont believe it, but Ive pretty near lerned to danee. You know they have daineing sr-hool here now. They have it in the af- ternoon for the kids and at night for grownups. Well yesterday afternoon ma dressed me all up, put that darned old eollar on tthat spreads out on my eoat tliton she ealls iti and took me over to the dancing sehool. There was a bumeh of kids there. and they looked awful funny. espeeially the boys. I guess I looked funny too, eause me ears got awful red and felt just like red lamp-shades, and my feet felt awful light and queer in them pumps and silk sm-ks. The girls was having a swell time, sitting -around giggling and fussing their hare and looking at the boys. Well a. young lady witlh a awful tight skirt with ruffles. and high heel shoes and hair slieked baek and earrings on eame up to ma and ask Does your little boy Want to dam-e. and I stood up real straight so's she'd see I wasn't very small amd Ma says, Yes, go with the lady dear. and the lady grabbed my hand and started to walk at-ross the floor with me where a buneh of boys were standing. Maybe you think I didnt feel like a darn fool, Page melon and that fat Morse kid grinned all over l'll swat: him next time I see him just to make him grunt he's so t'at. Well she takes me up to the buneh, and says lo l atty Morse, l'erey will you try this boy. Its his tirst time. And I had to put my arm around that fat slob, the felt just like a saek ot' t'lourJ and l atty starts in One two, one two, and off we goes. Gosh that kid was heavy and he'd land on my foot every time he'd say two. l'i'etty soon l got sore, and just tlhen we got to the door an-nd l says Lt-L.'s go get eooled off, so we went outside and maybe you think I didn't land into that kid. I massed him up something fieree, and just as I got through we heard somebody eomin, and I says, You better go home, son, so Fat beat it and the young lady eome out and says, 'ttlh here you are Robert, I missed you. Dont you want to come in and danee with some of the little girls? I didn't want to a.n.d besides I was kinda massed up but she took my hand and I had to. She hiked over to where there was a big mob of the girls, with me tag- ging after her, and who do you spose she made me danee with? The kid that had to have her hair eut off 'cause I put gum in it. Gee I was sore. Well I put tny arm around her and grabs into the only thing I eould find, it was tihe bow of the ribbon she had around her waist, and we started off. I stepped otn her foot just for mean- ness, first thing and she gives a funny lit- tle gasp but don't say nothing. I only wished I'd had on my big boots stead of them pumps. She eould danee pretty good so I hangs on to that blue ribbon for dear life and used it for a handle to turn her around witth, and every time the rest of 'em turned I'd give that ribbon a yank and switeh her around. I sure got even for that liekin she eaused me. I just walked all over her feet and twisted that blue ribbon in fifty different direetions. And then what do you suppose happened? Well that ribbon eatne untied and she kept on daneing and there I was hopping around with about fifty yards of blue ribbon in my hand. The fellas just bowled and -the kid says. You nasty mean horrid boy you, yon've ruined my sash. You aint got no manners at all. You just pulled it rite off on purpose. And I says, AW go on, I was just hanging on to it, you did the pulling yourself. And then the dancing teacher comes up and says, Why Rob- ert, Im surprised at you. Give Marie her sash, and I says, Gosh I donit want the darned thing. She must have tfhought I waznted it. All this time the fellows was laughing fit to bust and I slams the rib- bon down on the floor and starts over to clean up the bunch and I catches my foot in that ribbon and falls flat on the floor. Gosh I was maid. And just then ma comes over and the dancing teacher says, Mrs Ames, I think you'd better take Robert home he seems to be rather excited. Ex- cited! Huh! I guess she'd have been ex- cited too if she'd been made a fool of be- fore about fifty people. And then Marie's ma comes rushing up and says to ma, Madam, your son seems bent upon hu- miliating my daughter in every possible mia.n:n.er. and ma freezes up and says I presume it is too great a. stretch of mem- ory to recollect that you were a child once. And she takes my hand and says, come dear lets go home. And Marie's ma just got purple but ma. never looked at her, just sails right out and we gtfes home. I heard her and pa laughing awful htard after I went to bed that night, but it was no joke I tell you. Yours, Bob Ames. P. S. Ill he darned if I go to that dancing school again, and I gave Red El- kins and Jim Barnes a couple of black eyes today when they says something about blue ribbons. Brentwood, Cal., June 28, 1914. Dear Bill: Yestiddy was the tirst day of vacation and I earned a dollar. You know Vncle Dick, ma's brotlher that goes to College? Well he came up Friday nite and said he was going to spend his vacation here. IIe's a kinda decent sort ot' fella but there's a girl staying at F'ield's right next to us, who he used to know and he's awful sweet on her. She's a nice girl but she kisses me and masses my hare and calls me Bobbie dear right before all the folks. Well yestiddy morning I was showin I'ncle Dick around the place and you know those twin calves I was tellin you about? Well they was out in the loft back of our house and so was the old cow. The calves are pretty husky now and Uncle Dick says: Say Bob, ol top les have some sport, and I says, Sure And he says, Go get your little red wagon and a. couple of pieces of rope. And so I did and he started ouit after the calves. They was at olnie end of the lot and the old cow was att the other. IYell he walks up to them calves and ties t'he ropes around there necks and starts to leed them over to where the wagon was. Did they leed? Well I gess not. The red calf began to run one way and the spotted calf the other just as hard as they could tare. When they get to the e-nd of the roap they fell down and spun around on 'there jaw bones and nearly jerked Uncle Dicks arms out. and 77 But he's as game as tihey make em hung on. VVell those calves gets up in a jiffy and both starts to run the other way and Uncle Dick gets one roap twisted around his nees and the other around his ankles and then both calves starts off in the same direction' and he has to go to. At first he tried hopping, but they went too fast and he trips and stumbles and finally falls down and skates along nose. Gosh it was the funniest thing I ever saw. You oughta seen them on his calves run, amid there was Uncle Dick draggin and bumpin along behind 'em. He had swell white flannel pants on, and they was getting all streaked up with grass and dirt, and he 'had on low shoes and they both got untied amd flew off a.nd one bounced up and hit him on the ear. Gee he was the sorest guy I ever saw. For Lord sake Bob, he yells, 'tget a knife and cut me loose, and he just swore a blue streak. But I was laughing so hard I eouldn't do nothin but just run beside him. Just about that 'time though the old cow spots 'em and she starts toward l?1:':...l Vncle Dick with her head down and tail a'flyin' and then I get scared cause I thought she'd gore him. So 1 ,grabs my knife and cuts the ropes and those fool calves just kept on running and the old cow keeps heading for Uncle Dick. Well I cut the ropes around his feet and knees and then we boih starts for the fence lick- ety split. We just got there in time and crawled over as she took a board oi! with her horns. Well you oughta seen Uncle Dick. All the skin was oE the end of his nose and his hair was full of weeds and his face was pretty near covered with dirt. and grass stain and his clothes too. The parts of his face that weren't covered were kinda pale yellow color amd he was scared stiff. He didn't say nothin for about five minutes, then he stuck his hand in his pocket and says, Say Bob this is yours if yon never breat'hc a word of this IO anybody, Marjorie especially. I Wouldn't have told her anyway, but didn't tell him so, and I took the dollar and just grinned an says, Sure Last night I heard him telling Marjorie how he bumped into a door in the dark and skinned his nose, and she says. That's too bad. But what do you know about it, she saw the whole thing cause she was over this morning and I heard she and ma laughin about somethirng and I listened and I heard Marjorie say, Yes I was standing in the kitchen window and saw it all. He bribed Bobby not to tell. Wouldnt that bump you? But I should worry. I got the dollar anyway. Yours, Bob Ames. F. B. '1.J. Ii'-1'..o..l -xv .

Adella always knows her lessons to a. t And can ret-ite poetry as fast as can be. Our Zelma thinks a lot of a certain boy, And to play the part of Portia is to her a great joy. But Bertha thinks eaeh boy a beast And cares for them, no, not in the least. Studious Fern is adapted to learning, And her greatest ironble is translating German. May is always smiling it surely does seem, And her ambition is to make the team. Now to the boys and to their sports, We find them on all sorts of courts, In hand-ball Ellis does sure take pleasure, And no other Soph. eankto his skill measure. In foot ball Aubrey is sure some raver, He can run and dodge like a nigger c-haserf' Frank has his sport in another way, Ile's courting the girls most every day. In Rugby, Clifford takes interest, they say, And a elever player l1e'll be some day. Sometimes John to sehool takes a hike, And Charles eomes whenever he likes. And now, my friends, my tale is ended, And all my knowledge is nearly expended, I am a. Soph. and proud of the name, And no doubt you will give me no blame. Harold Lucas.

F. 23 Tribune. 511, The Gloom-man sat in his elaborate lib- rary staring into spaee, when the soft- footed servant brought in a eard on a tiny tray, Rub Phillips, it read, 'tthe answer In your Ad. Ile turned to view 21 sauey, boyish, tai- lored girl. Rub seated herself. I'm Dad's boy and you'll never know me from the real thing if you take me on,-'Baseball enthusiast, happy temperament and willing to rejuve- nate. Jones foots the bills,' is what won me. As the man sat silently eyeing her, she glaneed around and said, Where's Aunt Mary, shall I transaet the business with her? The Gloom-man seemed to enme baek to life again and replied T'hat's the trouble, she put the advertisement in the paper on inspiration, then reeeived a, -telegram from home saying, 'Tommy had the mumps' and away she flew, telling me to be sure to se- leet the right applieant. Molly always was the kind of a sister to get gi fellow into a mess. Aw, never mind, it's you deeision that enunts, let's proeeed. I read the ad and went down to the Tribune oliiee early to await developments. I Yaited and when your man ealled for mail F. 23 I followed P Tlfmy from him. Personal interview is always desirable. 'If you like-a me and I like-a you, And we both like about the same,' she hummed, now the question before the house is, are you respeetable? I'm in for a good deeent time. Dad's away for tlu'ee months and he said I eould do anything respeetable, if I'd keep out of debt and not marry. Could you make i't a hundred a month? the salary, I mean. Dad said I never eould earn t'hat mueh. And a three months' en- gagement? Would you for the sake of re- speetability eall for me and take me home eaeh day? The man was silent, so she eontinued, Am I 'the rejuvenator? You interest me, deelared the Gloom- man, Hand I'm respeetable, I hope. Yes. I'll meet your terms. Now, I suppose you ought to know what ails ine. Well, I was engaged to the sweetest girl on earth. so I thought: she eloped with her ehauffeur. I'm broken, nothing interests me, you'll hate me, for it's weak, I know. No, she answered softly, I like you beeause you eare, Init don't get eold feet. I eouldn't marry you if I would. I.et's go to the ball game. I want to see the Oaks win. If we don'l eount the eoin, we eau have a jolly time. I'm going home, eall for me soon. Ile followed her to the librarv where she turned and said. I'm sorry about my slang, if you eare. Dad says no one would H ever guess the money 'he's spent on my eollege polish. Say, when I have on my evening gown you ean't guess what a pol- ished lady I beeome. I'm going to eall you t'ousin Gloom. 'IIe's gi eousiu of mine,' she sang. The Gloom-man eauglu her hand and said. Say, but you are good for the dumps. She quickly withdrew her hand and said, None of the clasp stuff, just a. good time. Give me twenty minutes, then hump. The ball game was over, Bub had proved a good fan and as they entered the auto- mobile she took the wheel. Bub, exclaimed the Gloom-man, almost with enthusiasm, let's don our evening clothes and dine at the 'Poodle Dog. She seemed embarrassed a moment, then said, Oh, rats, its a cinch. We'1l go. They were waiting for the ordered dinner to be served, the glittering lights, the be- witching music and the buzzing voices en- veloped them. Bub was demure, trans- formed: the Gloom-man could not account for the change. Bub, he said, do you believe in dual personality? I believe between the two of you I will rejuvenate. And the man almost smiled. No, she replied, not dual, just dif- ferent. Then with a bewitching little laugh she rippled, I am sure it sounds queer. but I even think differently in my evening gown. Two months have passed. He was again himself. They were returning from the golf links and Bub was at the wheel, breaak- ing the speed law. ' Stop, Bub, let's enjoy the sunset, he rather demanded. Ah, chuck it, I'm afraid its the clasp stuff, she said, but here goes. I'm leased, you know. She stopped the car under a large spreading oak. He took out a large bas- ket and she saw it, she said Bully for you, Cousin Gloom. They had a merry feast and lingered on the slope to see -the sunset, Bub said. As they started off again, the Gloom- man drew a slip of paper from his pocket and said, Here's your check for three hundred dollars: it's only two months, but you've earned it royally and now I want to release you and begin again but on a dif- ferent footing. !97 Bub looked perplexed and uncomfort- able. I know you mean well, but I can't take it all, I haven't earned it, its the sum I named and it makes me feel like a lemon. You keep it, Bub, your services were invaluable. You have coaxed me back to normal and I have better poise than I ever had before. If my love could lease you for life I should be happy. Why couldn't you marry me if you would? Father would object, she replied ro- guishly. But if father would give his consent? he persisted. Cousin Gloom, which of my two do you like best, evening gown or this? pointing to her golf costume. Well, to tell the truth, I think I should choose the lassie of the evening gown, but I'm not certain. Why? Say, Cousin Gloom, it's getting late so we'll spin towards home and on the way I'll tell you why I couldnit if I would. They reached the Park and Bub brought the car to a stop under a large electric light and jerked off her cap. This is why. She removed a wig and laughed. Don't take it too hard, old man. A boy l the Gloom-man choked. Buh replaced wig and cap and said, Buck up old chap. The car now stopped at Bub's home and Bub, turning to Cousin Gloom. said: Come on in, we'll settle the matter. You must forgive me. but I did it for a joke. I,didn't think you'd get to care that way. The man objected but Bub pulled him inside, pushed him into the Parlor and switched on the lights. There sat Bub in an evening gown. He looked from one to the other in bewilderment. Twins, chuckled the golf clothes Bub. Tell it to her, she could if she would, and she's spoons on you, she said so. And then they were alone. Blanche Juett. '15. l'II'xmy-FourI ,Qi x , vt gh' 1 'ill I V 'X x 'Q 5 5 I Q1 -r r W Keg - Y 4 yf Y, K X ' .

But 'twas quite too full of hay, so Ev'ry boy stripped off his coat, But the Juniors sat by idly, While the Seniors played the goat. For the Juniors lazy creatures. Always did their duty shirk. Seniors were their guests of honor, Juniors sat and watched them work. When the hay-rack was unloaded, And the Seniors quite worn out, Ev'ryone piled in the wagon, Juniors first, you need not doubt. Sandwiches and cakes and apples, All were piled up in a heap, And the way that they were set on Was a sight to make one Weep. And they left' the gravel wagon Standing' there beside the road, Then urged on the weary ereatures To draw forth their heavy load. Merrily they elattered onward.

So with many groans and protests They set forth upon their way, Some there were who would be merry But the most were far from gay.

Dearest Mae: Well at last I have my heart's desire, I am going to a publie sehool. On August Ill I beeame :1 Freshman in the Lawrenee IIigh St-hool. It's just the grandest plat-e in the world. But let me tell you what they did to me. Hazing may be forbidden in this sehool but the Sophonrores don't know that it is. They take a delight in hazing me he- eause I am one of the freshest, greenest. humans that ever entered -the portals of a high sehool. Of eonrse, eoming straight from the seleet Miss Shinn's. I thought that I knew it all, but when these s-mme ignorant Sophomores were through I was eonvineed that I didn't know a thing. The seeond day that I was here they seemed to beeome aware of my presenee and the third day they were ready to hid me wel- eome. That morning Dad brought me to sehool and I was in the pink of perfeetion when I entered the doo1'. There I was met by five girls who escorted me to the dressing room where about twenty more were assembled. I didn't know that they were all Sophomores. I thought that they were unusually soeiahle, but alas all my illusions soon vanished. They told me that all Freshmen must go through eertain ordeals before they beeame full-fledged students. They read me a lot of rules, of whieh they 'rave me -a eopy. and then performed the ordeal. They took down my hair whieh I had arranged with sneh loving eare that morning and braided it into six tight pig -tails, eaeh of whit-li they tied with .1 diierent eolored ribbon. I was a sight! The girls howled with langh- ter. Just then the bell rang and they left me alone in misery. At first I was angry and was on 'the point of going to the prin- eipal, but just then I happened to get a P Tvnesly-Nine glimpse of myselt' in the mirror. I had to hold my sides and roar. My eonnnon sense told me that the Sophs thought that I would rather miss elass than be laughed at. I stood still a min- ute and asked myself. Are you game? tThat's high sehool slangl. I replied to my question, I am. All Freshmen are warned and eautioned against being late for elass but this par- tieular morning I wasn't afraid. I would wait until the elass was deep in the son and then I would appear. What a sen- les- sation I would ereate! And let me an- nounee that it was some sensation! The elass went wild and the tearlier eouldn't eontrol them. She wrote a little note and sent me to the oltiee with it. You might think that I was afraid to go to the of- fiee but strange to relate I was not. The prineipal thought tha't I was the one who was playing the joke and I allowed him to think so. Ile gave me a pretty stiff lee- ture but I didn't. mind it because I happened to spy a twinkle way haek in the eorner of his eye. Then he sent me down to rearrange my hair. There are several Sophs in the his- tory elass and two of them are girls. When I reappeared they glaneed at me anxiously, but I smiled sweetly and took my seat. Of eonrse they expel-'ted that I had told and that it would soon be their turn to go to the otliee. llut when the day passed and nothing happened, they seemed relieved. The next morning the whole twenty met me at the door and I wondered wh it would h-appen. Eaeh girl stepped forward and shook hands with me. I was feeling puffed up and was about to pat myself on the baek when I overheard one girl say. 'Tordy aeted more like a Sophomore than a measly little seruhf' This made me feel pretty' small and I resolved to be the meek- est Freshman ol' the floek. But I eould never live up to a resolution and besides you know Freshmen are Freshmen just as pigs is pigs. Consequently I get my nose pulled quite often. I've signed for 'tg'ym work and basket- ball. I also belong to the tennis elub. Next spring' the girls are going' to have a base- ball team. I think I'll try out for pitcher. Spring is a long way off and I may be able to throw a ball straight before that time. But I'm afraid I'll throw it too straight and hit the batter. I'm taking' History, English, Algebra, German and Physical Geogfrapliy. I't's all lots of fun and awfully interesting. Les- sons aren't very hard and I find that witlh ia. little extra work I'll get a. passing' mark. Well, I will have to stop now and do that little extra work. Good-bye, lots of love from, Your Freshie Friend, Cordy Johnson. P. S. Every Freshman thinks that his class is the greatest institution on earth. But I found that the rest of the school doesn't think so and that the Sophomores think that their sole duty in life is to eor- rect and manage the morals and manners of those low beings. sometimes called Freshmen, but more frequently Scrubs Oh I tell you it's great to be a Scrub in Lawrence but Mae I'm longing' for the time when I shall be a Sophomore.

Suddenly he 1'ose rest- lessly to his full height. Into his eyes crept a. look of wistful longing, as he lifted his violin and passed his tingers caress- ingly over it. As he gently drew the bow across the strings, soft, sad strains of exquisite music floated through the liarge French windows and drifted away among the stately old trees and beautiful shrub- bery. All unconscious of time, he played softly on, pausing now and then to gaze unseeingly before him. A soft step was heard in the hall and a tall woman entered the room. She was eviderrtly his mother, for there was a striking resemblance between the two. Ralph.'l she said in a voice. refined and low, Do stop that sad music! YYhat is ailing you? Q You know mother, he answered sdme- what irritably. But, my son, do you want to really go to that horrid wild YVest? Yes Oh, Ralph, I thought l could have you stay here and grow up a gentleman ! Yes. mother. but cau't there be gentle- men in the West as well as in the East? I don't know about that, she answered doubtfully. Father always says that the outward appearance doesn't make the gentleman, but that which is in his heart. Mrs. Brown looked at the boy 'thought- fully, then said. Do you really want to go? I sure do, he replied eagerly. Well then, you will hiave to settle it with father. The boy kissed his motlher and hurried away in search of his father. Father and son had a long talk together, which ended in Ralph having his own way. Exactly a week later Ralph hurried through the hall on his way to the ear- riage, which was waiting. At the door he was stopped by a slender girl with eyes and hair considerably lighter than his own. She clung to him with her arms about his neck. UI wish I were going with you, she whispered. USO do I. Sis, he answered, but you can't. Who'd stay and comfort mother? Besides the Wests no place for girls like you. Good-bye Dot. He kissed her and was gone. The brown eyes brinrmed with tears as they saw the horses trot. briskly down the avenue. A few minutes later he was being rapidly whirled away. Away from home! Into the world! Out of the face of his father, stern with suppressed feeling, shone his gentle eyes. Again he felt the grip that made his fin- gers ache and heard that familiar voice. he so loved, My son, my son. Good-bye! Dear Father, he murmured and then turned to divert himself wit'h the objects whirling by. At first the country through which he passed was well known to him. Gradually 79 V7 it all grew strange. In Colorado the rail- way stopped abruptly at a small station called Redding. Ralph looked about him when he stepped from the train and saw only a few shanties. straugly. lonely-look- ing out there in the wide plains covered with sage brush. While he stood there a 'tsawed off man in a sr:-at felt hat and chaps came up to him. The twitchinir of his sandy mustache plainly indicated the presence of a quid of tobacco com- fortably stowed in his cheek. Yellow hair and big bushy eye-brows were given force by the blue eyes which glearued wickedly. Such a face few people liked. He stared Page T hilly-Two at Ralph for 'al moment and then spoke in a deep voice. Air you the yottng feller 'that is due for the Star Ranch? Yes, replied Ralph. I am. Wal, continued the cowboy, l'm Sandy Renard, my right name be Jolm. but you see everybody calls me Sandy. I gttess we'll be goin'. Ile led the way to a pair of bronchos standing in the shade of one of the shan- ties. Ralph followed silently, inwardly amused at his companion. They mounted and rode away 'through the trackless plain. The Easterner was by no means asleep. They were surrounded on every side barren plains, only broken here and there by a. clump of sage brush, which occasion- ally held a frightened rabbit or gi hopping horntoad. The dim purple mountains in the distance formed a fringe for the vast plains. The men rode in silence which was almost unbroken. Sandy stole sly glances at his companion. He saw a youth with holiest eyes, clear brow and deter- minedly set chin, a face wholly unafraid. That night they camped at a water- hole. After cooking and eating their sup- pers. they rolled up in their blankets and slept soundly beneath the stars. lt was Sunday morning when they ar- rived at the Star Ranch. The ranch was in the low foot-hills. The rambling ranch house was approached from the front. It was made of adobe with some clay. All of the buildings around the place were as neat as the house itself. As the horse- men rode to the door the owner of the ranch, a middle aged man, came out. He approached Ralph in a brisk, authoritative manner and received him graciously. Af- ter the Boss, as he was called by all the cowboys, had arranged all matters of im- portance with Ralph. Sandy escorted him to the bunk house where the cowboys' quarters were. At first the men treated him distantly. This did not matter much to Ralph for he had his work to do and he did it faith- fully. It w-as not long until they saw that he was honest and wanted to work. When he first came to the ranch the men had teased him incessantly about his white Igutly-Tllee I hands,- l.ady tingersf' they called them. This was rather embarrassing, but he soon succeeded in getting them as brown and rough as the otlters. About -a. week after he came. an old ln- dian rode up to the ranch on a beautiful black horse. Ralph and Sandy were sit- ting in the shade fixing their saddles. Ralph was silently adtniring the animal when Sandy volunteered That thar Indian is a old risident of the country and ain't never been taken to a. risarvation. What cher thinkin' about? Ralph only started slightly 'amid grinned. Party fine nag he's ridin', ain't it? With these words Sandy's eyes narrowed to mere slits in his rough, sunburned face and searched Ralph's face like cold points of blue steel. lle found no clue for sus- picion and shifted his gaze again to the horse, where it rested longingly. Ile sud- denly spied a fly near the toe of his boot, and spat his vengeance at it. The old chief had seen Ralph and had trusted him instantly. Ralph went about his work again, but he had not forgotten the horse. Ile decided to have it. The new cowboy was being watched all the time although he did not realize it. The boss was thinking about retiring a-nd was in need of a reliable foreman. Isle was attracted to Ralph and questioned the men regarding him. iVhen Ralph Brown had been at the Star Ranch for a few months, a letter was handed to bim by one of the men. He looked at it curiously, it was not from home for it bore no postmark. On tearing it open he found a slip of paper on which was written in a cramped hand: mr r brown der ser. red feather is goin to dar happy huntin groan and want you to hav black hawk. give him a home ttred feather. Ralph gazed at the letter in bewilder- ment. Black Hawk! For him! Meditating a moment he turned and went in search of the Ross. After reading the letter, the Boss looked at the young man. Will you take him? he asked simply. Ralph nodded. The older man laid a hand on his shoulder and said, Red Feather was fond of you from the first time he ever laid eyes on you. Now go and get your horse. The young man mounted his pinto and rode away to Red I eather's hut. On knocking at the door, he received a faint, Come Entering, he found himself in a dark room. Its furniture consisted of a. chair, a stove and a. bed, on which the old man lay. Ralph went quickly to the bed side and held the offered hand in si- lence. Finally Red Feather spoke. It was in a low voice, Red Feather-is-goin- to-the-Happy-Hunting'-Grounds. Take -Bla c k-H a w k.-Take good-care-of him-a l wa ys. Ralph promised he would and the old man closed his eyes with a sigh. Red Feather was now with the Great Spirit. In the stable Ralph found the black horse. For a while he gazed at him fondly, then mounted and rode sadly away. A week later the Boss summoned him to the office. An hour or more passed be- fore he again reappeared. He was now foreman of the Star Ranch. The other cowboys, with the exception of Sandy, heard the news joyfully. They had learned to love him. Sandy eyed him from aiiis- tance with envy. He Was exceedingly jeal- ous of Ralph. One day Sandy was wandering about the buildings in a very black mood. He passed the open door of Ralph's office in his wandering and glancing in he found it vacant. A sudden impulse to do Ralph harm seized him. He quickly had a pen in his fingers and Ralph's account book open. In a minute he had changed several num- bers and taken some bills from the table and was gone just as the foreman was about to enter an opposite door. Ralph discovered the fix up in his num- bers and worked for hours to straighten it out but was unsuccessful. When the Boss heard of it, he investigated it but without result. Accordingly Ralph was discharged. The young man felt his disgrace very keenly. After selling Black Hawk, much against his will he left the country. The boys could not believe him guilty. His friend Jack, was sure that he was not. One bright June morning, when all out doors was alive and glad, a dark figure was seen against the distant horizon by the cowboys of the Star Ranch. As it drew nearer and became more distinct, they bc- gan speculating to the idently of the rider. That's that kid, Brown on Black Hawk l ejaculated Jack. Surely it could not be he! Yes he was coming directly toward them. The cow- boys raised a joyful yell which was a.n- swered by a well-known shout. Black Hawk, as if knowing that this was home, bore his rider up to the group with a dash. There followed a great deal of hand-shaking and joyful exclamations. Where have you been? asked Jack, slapping Ralph affectionately upon the shoulder. The rest were like a bunch of eager school-boys. Tell the whole story, someone cried. There's not much to tell, began Ralph. Only when I left this ranch I was dis- gusted with the West and decided to go home. I got as far as Kansas City when my funds ran low so I had to stop. I hunted work for a week before I finally landed a job as reporter for a small paper. By the time I had earned enough for a' ticket home I had no desire to go. Instead I had an intense yearning' for the West and the free open life of the plains, he paused and ran his hand carressingly over the glossy mane of Black Hawk. The horse rubbed his nose against Ralph's shoulder, and for you, too, Black Hawk, he continued, I arrived in lVyoming a few weeks ago. I wasn't brave enough to face you just then. I didn t like the country so well and besides work was scarce. Finally I found myself in these mountains. I just felt sure that you fellows didn't believe me crooked in spite of the dope the Boss had on me. And we didn't. the boys replied, all speaking' at once. You aren't of that sneaking kind. Thankee, for the compliment. boys, grinned Ralph. But what became of that man, Mitchell, lifhiriy-Fo url who bought this there nag ott' you? asked one man a moment later. Search me, said Ralph. I seen Sandy ridiu' that thar hoss over in Reddin' 0h! Go by the half dozen too, put in Jack. your life, I warn't indulgin'. last week,-sure thing-. on! You were seein' soldiers Not on Fellows, interrupted Ralph, l'm here today with sad news for you. I wouldn't have been here otherwise.-Sandy's dead- stone dead. Whateher mean? All eyes were turned on the speaker in bewildcrment. Ralph drew a pack of papers from his pocket and selected a dirty piece of an old envelope from the others. Read that, he said, It's my pass port into respectable society and back to my honor. Just then the Boss came out of the cor- ral carrying a coil of rope in his hand. Jack read. I took those bills,--Sandy. For a moment the truth seemed to per- colate slowly, then a lusty shout set the buildings ringing. Glad hands seemed to extend out of space. Ralph saw them through tear dimmed eyes, thinking, these are friends indeed. After these expressions of gladness and trust were completed, Ralph spoke in his most solemn tones. All heads were bowed the moment the rolling tones broke upon their ears. Fellows, he said, UI left his body un- der a. tree at Willow Watering, about four hours ride to the north east on the Red- ding Trail. We must get him away be- fore night or the coyotes will. What's eating you fellows? the voice of the Boss was cool. No one spoke. Ralph's eyes met those of his former em- ployer almost haughtily. Well Brown, What brings you back? He's innocent. Jack put in before Fas!-Fuel Ralph could answer, and here's the proof. The Boss read the paper, extending his free hand, gripped Ralph's and said, For- give mel l have never believed it of you in spite of the evidence! There was no other way. l had to discharge you. Sandy's lying dead away out there, Boss. l came upon him when I was on my way to Mitchell's with this horse. Ile was within a few yards of Willow Wat- ering. His eyes were bloodshot and his hands bleeding, his knees stuck through his trousers swollen and bruised. What was the matter? What happened to him Rattler. He raved for hours and about midnight sat up straight and wild-eyed gazed at me. Are you Brown? he demanded at last. 'Yes. Wal, I reckon as now Ilve told you, I suppose you're glad to see me dying. Ile wouldn't lie down, Boss, but gazed at the stars a few minutes. Suddenly he fumbled about his clothing. Ile could not articulate: his hands fell helplessly to his side and he sank back against the sad- CIW K dle. His lips were moving. Piece paper- pencil, were all I heard. He seemed to sleep. I got there but could not arouse him. At sunrise he turned his head and reached for the paper, trying to wrifte. I guided his hand as he mumbled. I took -those-bills.-Sandy. He was trying to thank me out of that bruised and broken body of his. Poor unfortunate fellow! Now let's bring him home. That night at sunset Ralph drove the buckboard into the circle of buildings. The body of Sandy lay on a heap of straw in the bottom. Ralph guided the horses into yard thinking of his first coming to the the West. Now he could go home and face his father. IIe had proven his honesty. M. S.

They were Jack Daulton, Senior, captain and center of the basket ball team, Ray Woodrui, Senior, and forward on the basket ball team, and Willie Dustin, plain Freshman. Talk about your luck. growled Jack. Here are Ray and I waiting to be put in the guard-house and the championship game with Ililton coming off a week from Saturday night. Besides I suppose Betty and Carol are about crazy because they haven't heard from us since last Saturday. It's all your faulty Dusty. If you had held on to those letters we would be in the gym now instead of waiting to be escorted to the guard-house. You fellows make me tired ! snorted Willie. As long as Nancy and I delivered your messages safely at the risk of our own necks it was all right. But because I let one slip you are ready to call me seven kinds of a fool and then some. and here I am risking my life for you again. If I'm caught here it will be the guard-house for little Willie. But I'll tell you what I'll do. Wednesday, after the team passes the guard-house you fellows drop a couple of notes out of the window and yours truly will deliver them. Hall will be in his study and there will he no chance of being caught. I'll- but just then footsteps were heard approaching the door so Willie beat a hasty retreat down the fire escape. Cadets Daulton and Woodruff were to be confined in the guard-house Tuesday at 9 p. m., to await a general court-martial. Their offense was the most serious in the history of the school. They had been cor- responding with two girls of the Garwood Seminary and two of the letters fell into the hands of the head master of Hamilton. Waldon Hall. Pug .Nic Madame Eliza Brandon, Dean at Gar- wood. was Mr. llall's bitterest enemy and he refused to allow his boys to have any- thing to do with her girls. She upheld the same rule in her school. Several years before they had been engaged but had quar- reled over some trivial matter and had not spoken since. Wednesday afternoon at four o'clock the basket ball team passed the guard-house on the way to the gym. Ten minutes later footsteps were heard on -the walk and two notes dropped at the feet of Mr. Ilall, who had just rounded the corner of the guard- house. Ile picked tlnn up, glanced at the inscription, frowned and put them in his pocket. After a minute of deliberation he proceeded on his way. Five minutes later Dusty came running down the path. Fellows , he called softly as he reached the window. No answer. IIe called again. Two heads appeared at the window. What's wanted? asked Ray. Where are the letters? asked Willie. The letters? Didn't you get them? We dropped them out about five minutes ago when you passed. I just got here. Wheelan kept me for algebra. Who is on guard today? Toms Reynolds. IIe'd help us out of trouble so go and ask him if he knows anything about the letters. In a few minutes Willie was back with a look of despair upon his countenance. 'tlle says that IIall came down with some orders a little while ago and went back this way. Great Scott! lsn't that just our luck! exclaimed Jack. Now we'll get it for sure. No chance of playing a week from Saturday night now. You're the best mes- senger I ever saw, Dusty. You couldn'l buy H postage stamp without losing it before it crossed the counter. You make me tired. Don't ever suggest anything to me again. Aw shut up! You fellows must think l'm your goat. I hope Ilall gives you the limit, and with that the cruel Willie made for the gym. Monday at two o'eloek the eourt con- vened. Just as the ease was called a. note was handed to Mr. Hall. This is what he read: Dear IValdon: liast night as I was making my usual round of visits I found one of my students, Elizabeth Wall, erying' as if her heart would break. On inquir- ing' into the cause I learned that she was erying beeause she had not heard from Jack Daulton of your school, sinee a Week ago last Saturday. In- stead of being' angry I was sorry and my heart Went out to her. I thought at onee of you and of our quarrel of several years ago. IValdon, I am sorry for I know now that I was wrong. I ask your forgiveness. - I also ask that you let your boys ,join with my girls in giving their eom- nieneement danee. Affeetionalely yours, Eliza. Mr. Hall looked up and smiled as he noted the gloomy faves of the cadets in front of him. I withdraw my eharges against Cadets Daulton and IVoodruff and reinstate them in their former position. Also I wish to state that you will be joined by the girls of Garwood Seminary at your commenee- n1ent. , he said. Bedlam broke loose. The yelling, eheer- ing' mob of boys with Daulton and Woodruff on their shoulders made their way outside and marched around and around the build- ing. Look. look, whispered Betty to Jack as they strolled slowly up and down in the moonlight on eommeneeinent night, I be- lieve Mr. Hall is proposing' to Madame Brandon under Love-r's Oak.

XXX In giving' an account of our forge Work it would take many pages to give in detail the work as we have gone over it in our course. Practical work, has been our motto all winter. and to keep us properly interested in our work we have, after a few weeks of all kinds of work, been allowed to make various small articles the process of making which leads to thoroughness and to an experience which places us upon a firmer footing' and inspires each student with more confidence in his ability. Some of the work is dilticult and trying, but in the end we have all enjoyed our small accom- plishments. In our shop We lack many conveniences, but this need of various articles has in- spired initiative and made us resourceful. YVe supply these articles by making' them ourselves and thus learn to attain results under difficulties. , Our processes have involved heating' lI?Oll and steel of various compositions to proper temperatures for shaping, also the shap- ing, bending' and welding' of iron and steel of a high temper. We turn out genuine hand made tools, shaped, polished and tempered. Among these articles are cold chisels, wrenches, screw drivers. different kinds of hammers, flatters and hot eye cutters, d1'awing' and bench knives, and hack saws. Many of these articles we color in var- ious ways in the fire and with acids and other metals. There is no way of judging' how much is done during the term by examining our exhibit, for not more than 11 third of our actual work can be shown on account of our economical phase of the work which involves repeated use of various articles and scraps for other steps and phases of the course. A visit to the shop any day will enable you to get a fair notion of the character and importance of this department and to understand how intimately it is related to the everyday life of ranch work. is lit 'iil M l px ini ll f Page Forty-Six 7754-.3 ii - 1 X ., -f 1.- - 0 ' w I V r , GIRLS' ATHLETICS The girls began basket-ball praetiee early in September.

Both teams entered with the spirit of the gatne written on their fat-es, as this was to deeide the ehampion- ship of the eounty. A few minutes after the game started Franees Brown sprained her ankle and Mae Roberts took her plaee. The game was as snappy as eould be wished for and the erowd went wild with eutlmsiasm. Liberty seored first and kept the lead throughout the game. The st-ore at the end of the first half' stood lfi-T in favor of Liberty. When the whistle blew for the set-ond half profound silenee reigned ttntil the ball was put in play. Both teams showed more vigor than ever but our opponents were gradually losing ground.

However, we held our own and The year 1914-15 has been the most eventful year in athletics at Liberty for a number of years. School opened in August with promising football material. During the second school week the boys met and elected flenry Winfree, manager. and Edward He- vey, captain, of the football team. Two weeks later training was going on in earn- est in spite of the warm weather. lt was found that we were in urgent need of a coach and football suits. When the trus- tees heard of our needs, they kindly do- nated forty dollars UF-101 to us. We are all grateful to them for their keen interest in our athletic aH'airs, and it was their aid that made us as successful as we were. We secured the services of Ray Shafer. an ex- perienced football player, to coach us. We were a green squad that went through the first maneuvers and there seemed little hope of learning the scientific part of the game. But Ray proved equal to the conditions and we were soon acquiring some ideas of Rug- by. At first il was hard work for the cap- tain and manager to get some of the boys to come' out to practice regularly. But gradually they became more enthusiastic, and, in spite of our inexperience in Rugby. much was accomplished. RIVERVIEW VS. LIBERTY We challenged Riverview High of Anti- och to play us a practice game on Septem- ber 19th, as we desired to have some prac- tical experience before the scheduled games in October. The Riverview boys, however. were experienced in the game and their knowledge of it caused them to triumph. Their scrum was heavier. but pioved little better than ours. if any. They excelled in the back field. Their men could dodge. tackle and pass. while we l'F.':'..t...l several of the boys showed up well. After two hard fought halves the game emled with the score of 18-tl in their favor. We profited by our experience. MT. DIABLO VS. LIBERTY October 10th marked the opening of the League schedule and Mt. Diablo High of Concord journeyed ovei' to play us on the local gridiron. They were a clean buiich of players and too much for us. During the first half we held them down and played good ball. When the whistle blew the score stood 12-0 in Mt. Diablo's favor. During the second half our boys seemed to lose faith in themselves and our oppo- nents began to pile up a number of points. At the end of the game the score was 37- 0. RIVERVIEW VS. LIBERTY In spite of our former defeats. we were not disheartened and played our league on Oct 2-lth on our after two weeks of game with Riverview home grounds. But, drilling and coaching we did not come up to expectations. The first half was very Liberty did her best playing. Our tackling and running was better. Our forwards did well but the back field lacked pep, In the second half we met our downfall and in spite of repeated efforts to cross the line for a try the game ended with another 'tgoose egg for Liberty and 45 points tabulated on the score board for Riverview. SAN RAMON VS. LIBERTY The boys practiced bard the following week and were confident of victorv in the game with San Ramon lligh ofqhinville on Oct. 31st. Richard Wallace having re- turned to high school, our team was greatly strengthened. lt was in this game that the exciting and drilling of Voach Shafer showed to per- fection, even though the game was some- what rough. Williamson, one of our best and swiftest back field men. was the first Liberty man to make a try. Swift soon followed. Finally, at the end of the sec- ond half the score stood 17-0 in Liberty's favor. The Danville girls furnished ns with a fine meal and we certainly appreciated it. ALHAMBRA VS. LIBERTY field, the first half ended with neither side having scored. When the second half started, we were determined to win and began with the kick-off. The ball continued to see-saw, now one side on the offensive and now the other. Toward the end of the the Alhambra left wing ran right wing and over near the second half around our edee of the field. The touch line was not distingruisli- able at that point, while the 5 yard line We were scheduled to play Alhambra was. The opponent ran across the line at Martinez on Oct. 17th, but did not go on that could be seen and our right wing BOYS' BASKET BALL TEAM Top Row: Vernon Cakebread, Henry Winfree, Walter Swift, Joe Hand.

How- ever, on Nov. 3rd the trustees kindly grave the high school a vacation, so we went down intending' to scalp the county seat team. The game commenced about 3:10 and we had the ball on their 25 yard line nearly all of the first half. Alhambra did not hire a referee from V. f'. or Stanford, as the county rules prescribe, but one from Crockett. Many times we were on the point of crossing the goal line, but were forced back. After see-sawing across the thinking' he had passed out of bounds stopped running. The result was a try for Alhambra and it was also converted. It was too near the end for us to ,fret a try: however, we did our best. The sec- ond half ended with the score of 5-0 in favor of Alhambra. XVe went home feeling that we did not have quite a square deal and confident we could beat them in another game. JOHN SWETT VS. LIBERTY The hnal game of the league was played list? l here on Nov. Tth with Jolm Swett lligli of Crockett. They came with the intention of beating us good and proper , as they did two years ago. llowever, we gave them a surprise. Of all the games this was the best. All our boys were in fighting trim and Shafer was pleased with our showing. Our scrum worked fine and the back field was also better than usual. Almost immediately af- ter the kick-off in the first half, Barkley crossed the line and scored 3 points for Liberty. We failed to convert and for thc rest of the first half it was about an equal fight. Gradually, Crockett forced us back and forced their way, after many scrums, over the goal line. When the whistle blew the score stood 3-3. During the second half we had the bail in our territory almost continually. Our scrum seemed to be getting better all the time and Joe Hand, our hook. got the ball out on our side line continually. After many scrums and racks on our 5 yard line the ball was taken over, but we failed to convert. In a minute or so the whistle blew and the score stood 6-3 in our favor. In honor of our victory Coach Shafer treated us to soda water at the Teacup Inn. BASKET BALL Liberty was very successful in basket ball this year. Immediately after foot- ball was over, the boys commenced prac- tice. Joe Hand was elected captain. and Walter Swift, manager. A great interest was taken in the game and there was much material to pick from. Through the gener- osity of Bruns Brothers. we were allowed to practice in the garage when the weather was bad. The county schedule was ar- ranged in December, and the games were to be played in January. Riverview, Al- hambra and Liberty were the only schools having boy's teams that were represented. Riverview forfeited her games to Liberty and Alhambra, so we only needed to de- feat the boys from the county seat, to win the county championship. LIBERTY VS. TOWN TEAM On Friday evening. Jan. 15, we had a 'olQl practice game with a home team of for- mer high school boys. lt was a very lively game throughout and Liberty allways kept the lead. The game ended with the score 18-21 in favor of Liberty. LIBl'IR'l'Y YS. ALIIAMBRA Saturday evening. Feb. 6, the Alhambra team of Martinez came up to Brentwood with the best intentions. However, they were somewhat surprised. The boys prac- ticed hard during the week preceding the game and were in good trim. The game connnenced immediately after the girls had finished. and was exciting from the start. Liberty made a number of goals within a few minutes. The Alhambra guards were kept on a lively move by our fast forwards, while their forwards tried time and again to ditch our guards, but without avail. At the end of the first half IJi'berty was con- siderably in the lead. The second half started with a rush. Alhambra.'s fighting spirit was up, but her forwards could not find the basket ex- cept on special occasions. When the whis- tle blew at the end of the last half the score stood 26-12. Liberty had won her first boy's basket-ball pennant. We received the championship pennant in the latter part of March and it was set up on the wall in the assembly hall. There it hangs beside the girl's pennant, as a proof of Liberty's ability ii. basket-ball. WINNERS OF THE L . The following have won the block 'L for faithful practice and participating in four or more football games: 1915. Walter Swift, Joseph Hand. Alvin Howard. 1916. Henry Barkley. llenry Winfrec, Edward Hevey. Vernon Cakebread. 1917. Frank Shellenberger, Aubrey Wil- liamson, Clifford McNamara, James Cake- bread. 1918. Stanley Nunn, John Suffern. TRACK MEET The annual track meet was held in Con- cord, April 24. The Liberty men were: J. Hand. R. Fox, F. Mr-Numara, A. Rob- erts, F. Shellenberger. W. Swift. and A. Williamson. 6 The boys had a very poor track on which to practice and with no coach they found it ditlicult- to induce any one to train prop- erly or sulticiently. The captain, W. Swift and nianager, H. Winfree did the best they could under trying' conditions and deserve credit for putting' a team in the meet. Two of the team, H. Winfree and A. Howard were, at the last moment, unable to go. W. Swift took third place in the 440 and 880 yd. --V. McNamara third place in the ham- mer: and our relay team. Composed of Swift, Hand, YVilliamson, Roberts, and Cakebread, took third place. Let us hope that the trustees will eni- ploy a young' man on the faculty for next ., O 4 L... . I' year who can lead us in all our sports. ,J .1 TRACK TEAM -Twol ee fl If I, I. il il X 1 3 .MQ l I The so:-ial events of our sehocl days are good times tu be remembered through life. Let ns live over again those of this year. First :-Un Thursday evening. September 10, 1914. the frightened, shining, cleanly- washed faees of the Freshmen. appeared timidly. in the door-way of Coates' Hall. The amusement started by playing games but as usual. the greater part ef the evening was devoted to dancing. Freshmen. up- per elassmen, and the Alumni joined in the fun. At twelve o'eloek, signs of drowsiness were notieed among the little ones, so we fed them with dainty refreshments made and served by the girls of the eooking elass. The little Freshmen eertainly looked sweet as they sat at the table with a green bib tueked about the neek of eaeh. As you well know, our rules forbid festivities after twelve n'eloek. We do not eount eat- ing a festivity so it was almost one o'elor-k before we started for home. THE HAY RIDE On the evening of Oetober 2nd, 191-l, the Juniors gave a Hay Ride. in honor of the Seniors. The jolly erowd gathered at- Liberty about seven thirty and piled into a lumber wagon. This wagon not being large enough they went out of town 11 few miles and. after unloading the hay from a header- bed. elambered in, young folks and teaeh- -Three' ers, and started for the Marsh Freek sehool house. Before they reaehed their destination, the horses refused to go any further. so the crowd agreed to stop and eat their luneh. After apples. pieees of eake, and sandwiches had been tueked away, they started home. Alas! when they had gone but a few miles the wagon broke down. and the erowd had to walk. Nevertheless we all enjoyed the ride. On Dec-ember 12. 191-1, the annual Senior Ball, was given by members of the elass. The hall was artistieally deeorated with holly berries and mistletoe. The Seniors wore badges of orange and blaek, those being the 1-lass eolors. and at-ted as floor managers. Delightful musie was provided by the Shafer Sz 0'IIara Orehestra. At twelve o'eloek a Tamale Supper was served. and after eating. all went home def-laring. it to be one ot' the best times of the season. Saturday evening. February 6, 1915. at the elose of a double-header basket ball game, the students of l.. l'. Il. S. gave a danee in honor of the Martinez :rifle illlfl boys. The alTair was given in Voates' llall, and the music- was provided by the Shafer K 0'llara Orehestra. The danee elosed at twelve o'r-lor-k, and all went home. the visitors def-laring that they had had a de- lightful time. .2 ff X s X X X fi-Sf-IXRNilRlQfT1R - . - Ihr Alumni' Flag sinh Mall 56 f9RXYXi 5XNRX5GYT?fT' il fa J flifflSXf?Q5?l-lf 5? 5it5F :l On the evening of Marr-h 19, 1915, the Luey Harrington ...,....,.,...,,,.,, Polly Barkley Junior Class presented His Uncle John Mrs. Slaters ........v.,,....
