OU knew when you met her that the Widow Mallory was Irish. It might have been her dusky crowning glory, it might have been her merry grey eyes or her pretty pink cheeks, or her tilted nose, or her dimples: but whatever it was, it was not any accent in her speech, for she spoke American Eng- lish, sometimes with wilful disregard of grammar. She was fond of the expression, Ain't us, kids? when talking to her three children. john, the oldest, was dark and sullen in ap- pearance, but had a disposition which was the widow's joy and despair. Unexpectedness was the keynote of his character, and though she was always expecting the unexpected it never failed to surprise her. Rosie, five, chubby and slow, serene, even- tempered, was the real baby of the family and sweetly accepted all the coddling and spoiling she received. But Edward! Ed, the violent, the rude, Ed the gentle deceiver, was the cause of loss of sleep, of worry, of secret spasms of laughter on his mother's part. His supreme ego had carried him successfully through near- ly four years of life. He got every- thing he wanted from a deferred bedtime hour to weird articles of clothing. He had only to fix on Rosie a commanding stare and she handed him the cocky or the ba- nana or whatever it was she had that he wanted, and got it back af- ter he had taken a bite. But he was not as bad as that sounds, for he was usually quite well-mannered. The widow and her children all lived together in a little brown house. There was a hedge around the little brown house, and in this hedge you might find anything from Rosie's dolls' clothes to the long, lank cat flong and lank from the loving of john and Rosie and Edl that be- longed to one of the irate neighbors. The hedge kept in the loud disputes of john and Ed, and the sight of the widow shamelessly playing teaparty with Rosie, and it kept out the little ruffian sons of the aforementioned irate neighbors. But these are not all the charac- ters in this story. There were three others: Mr. Bell, Mr. Kenney and Mr. Benson, bachelors three, enamor- ed of the Widow Mallory, and fre- quent visitors, each alone and some- times all in a body, to the little brown house. Mr. Bell was round and merry, and brought candy and big, fat oranges: Mr. Kenney was round and serious and brought books: Mr. Benson was nervous and hasty and brought only himself. Mr. Bell the children en- dured, Mr. Kenney they disliked, and Mr. Benson they ardently despised. lnteresting as this arrangement was, of visitors often and many gifts for the widow fstill more for the chil- drenl, it could not last indefinitely. Things began to be serious: the bach- elors three came more often separ- ately and more often left in a body, the candy came oftener, the books became more serious, and Mr. Ben- son more nervous. So Mrs. Mallory ran away. That is, she put on the children's hats, hastily packed a suit- case and took the train for her sis- ter's home across the state. When she sedately led the children up her sister's walk, no questions were asked: only, after the way of sisters, the reason for the sudden visit came out in the long talk over the late supper table. Together they laughed until Myra's husband came in from his garden to see what was l2 THE LINCOLNIAN funny, and John bounced out of with a thud and came downstairs. The tears stood in Kate's grey eyes. Oh, she giggled. Fancy me having a beau at my age! At your age! said Myra. You talk like you were fifty. lt would be a more sensible age for having beaux like them! So they laughed more and did not talk seriously about Kate's admirers for two days. Then sitting on the back step, watching the children play, and shelling peas, Myra decided that the occasion merited putting the men to a test, as the heroines in novels do, and picking out one. Then you can decide whether you want to marry that one or not: any- wayihe will be the best of the three. Well, said Kate, l'll think about it. What would you say were the requirements of a good husband? Faithfulness first. This was the only noticeably husbandly quality that Myra's husband possessed, so she made the most of it. He will have to be good to the children. And not treat you like a slave. And good-natured. And thoughtful about birthdays and suchlikef' -Q And industrious. And home-loving. Willing to wash dishes! Handy about the garden. Not too stupid to have around. Thrifty, so he will have some- thing saved up for your old age. Yah, l'll never be old. Yes, you will, and then you will wish- One thing--he must be willing to stay up with Rosie when she has the toothache, and Ed when he has the earache. Well, it wonit hurt if he is good to them, but he should-be firm and not spoil them like you do. Me spoil them! l'd like to know what you do, Myra Doran! with your teaparties every afternoon and your baking every day for them! Well, we'll ra, blushing, and talk about your drop them, said My- suitors. What you want to do is to a few tests. then? put them thru What tests, Well, l know what l'd do. Tell me, then, for goodness sake! l don't know what l'd do. lf they are faithful and anxious about you they will find your address and write. That's easy. If they don't write, that leaves them out. Yes, but they will probably all write if they are as interested as you tell. Then you can try them out on housework, and there you will prob- ably lose one, anyway, because men do hate housework. Then have some trouble and if any of them survives you can marry him. lt sounds easy! It started easy, for Mr. Bell was ruled out the next day because he hadn't written to inquire anxiously about the widow's welfare. But when they went home a few days later he met them at the depot and seemed so glad to see the children that Mrs. Mallory's heart melted and she felt inclined to try him again. The housework test was harder. The sight of Mr. Benson dabbing at the plates and Rosie watching him in open-eyed wonder was too much for gravity, so for more amusement she suggested that he amuse Rosie while she finished washing the dishes. Ro- sie was too polite to refuse to play with him, but she was disdainful and John was inclined to laughter. Mr. Benson's idea of play was to go down on all fours and make rushes at Rosie, who simply walked away and waited for him to get up and be- have. At last, perspiring and flushed, TH'E L1.N.c.oLNlAN I3 he arose, mopping his brow, and' said he would prefer to dry dishes. So he was out of the gameg only tem- porarily, it turned out, for he squan: dered several dollars on a pretty doll for Rosie, winning her heart com- pletely. I Mr. Bell behaved beautifully when called on to display his housewifely ability. He took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and plunged into the soapsuds, his broad face contrasting happily with Mr. Benson's uneasy ex- pression the evening before. Not only did he wash the dishes, but skilfully swept up the crumbs from under the table, explaining that he had done it years before for his mother. Then, told to amuse the children, he organized a screamingly exciting game Lof tag, he himself sprinting nimbly about obstructions and contributing to the noise. Mr. Bell certainly has made a good showing tonight, reflected the widow. But l'll have to give him an extra test to make up for his not writing. And she laughed, showing that her affections were not deeply concerned. Mr. Kenney failed dismally in both trials, explaining that housework was the woman's job, and trying to im- prove John's mind by reading him a stupid poem about birds. John lis- tened interestedly, but told his moth- er later Mr. Kenney was an awful fool. njohnl you little villain, how can you! Mr. Kenney is a nice man. Maybe you think so. A Run along and call Rosie: it's getting dark. Things ran along for a month or more, when the Benson one proposed out of a clear sky. Er-Mrs. Mallory, l don't suppose -ah-l don't suppose 1 er 1 you'd marry me? The widow gasped and blushed and looked as if she had done something wicked. Subconsciously she noticed Mr. Bensorfs hair growing on the back of his neck, and she said: No, no, l can't, no, the children --Myra-no, l wouldn't. It was not very romantic, but it excluded poor Benson finally. About this time Mr. Kenney left town for a week and during his absence the little brown house was very quiet, Mr. Bell not putting in an appear- ance. When he did come he explain- ed that he had been helping to amuse his landlady's Eastern guests. The widow was piqued and planned a sud- den ending to the farce for the next week. Tuesday afternoon a sad voice asked Mr. Kenney over the 'phone to call that evening, and Mr. Bell's land- lady sympathetically took a message for him. Promptly at seven the two men arrived at the opening in the hedge around the little brown house, and, eyeing each other questioningly, hurried up the walk. The house was quiet, the shades were drawn, and a sober widow met them at the door. Come in, she said, controlling her countenance remarkably: this is to be a sort of farewell party. Farewell party! from Mr. Bell. Farewell party! from Mr. Ken- ney. Yes, l heard something this after- noon that will take us out of your circle. What, for lord's sake? Mr. Bell was disturbed. . Well, smiling as near wistfully as possible, you know my finances were limited, anyway, and now l have almost nothing, and l'll have to work in a laundry or somewhere to earn our living. No, neverl l'll sell all l own first! This manly exclamation came from Mr. Kenney. You will never be compelled to do that! l have 14 THE. LINCOLNIAN enough for two-five, I mean: and you will be happy and never have to worry. The widow saw Mr. Bell's glare and his rude behavior. Go home and tell your ma she wants you, Kenney, he said, push- ing Mr. Kenney out the door. Beat it quick! And Kenney did, after uselessly getting on his dignity and refusing to do any such thing, the widow's giggle making his ears burn. Now, you poor kid, l see through you like a piece of tissue paper. What you need is a guardian, so you won't get in trouble trying to be kind to silly fools. What do you mean? l am per- fectly able Oh, yes, you ain't. What I mean is-l'm an old fool, too, but l like your kids, and not having any of my own, l want yours. On the side, l want you. His face beamed and belied the on the side. He awkwardly ex- tended his arms and stood there, look- ing fond and foolish, until the widow made up her mind to accept him. You knew she was going to choose Mr. Bell, didn't you? l did, too, as soon as he neglected to write, for she was Irish and feminine. ' The Little Gray Mouse PRlNGTlME, the herald of the good old summertime, breathed vibrant life into the winter- chilled world. How the people of the eastern town of Dorset looked forward to its comingl One of its early fresh days brought many people out, on rambles thru the poplar-shad- ed walks and on jaunts into the neighboring countryside. Two girls had been enjoying themselves in this fashion and were now returning to their homes. The girls were chums. Elinor was beautiful in every feature, with cheeks of pink, eyes of blue, and hair slight- ly darker than golden: Anna was slender, and her only claim to beauty lay in her large, dark eyes and heavy, dark hair. As the two were strolling along the street they talked of their various interests. Oh, Anna, l wish you could see my new dress. lt's a perfect dream. Mamma just finished all yesterday ex- cept the collar, and l am going to sew the lace on it tonight. Then l will get my hat and pumps and when everything is completed l will show you how l will look on the evening of the dance. Clee was the keynote of Elinor's voice as she spoke. Then she added: How about it, Anna: aren't you real- ly going to this dance? Why do you always stay at home. when you could be having such a grand time? Come to this one, won't you, please? Anna nervously turned the mat- ter aside. Se did not want Elinor to know why she did not go. But be- cause of her shyness she was not popular with the boys: consequently, although she loved to dance, she was always a wallflower. At this point of the conversation a troop of four girls overtook them. They were a chattering, happy group of ravishing young creatures. They nodded carelessly and smiled to Anna, then burst into exclamation: with Elinor over the coming event, the first country club dance of the sea- son. Elinor, can we see your new dress now? Can we? Oh, please, Elinor. The four girls, arms locked togeth- er, leaned toward Elinor and pleaded. But she would not yield. ' No, girls, not yet, she said, play- fully. You said you wouldn't show me yours, so l won't show you mine. Oh, Elinor! Say, who is going to take you? Bud Fisher? burst in Tot Meredith, questioning Elinor. Elinor shook her head. Now, Tot, why not you tell us the name of your very dear friend? Tot blushed. Then Mary Strath- more broke into an interesting mys- tery. l wonder whom our new Doctor Richards is going to take? He's one fine fellow, l'll tell the world. Y' know, l think that smart Alice Ma- thew thinks he likes her. Her broth- er told my kid brother that Alice pre- tended she was sick and had her mother have him come in and see her. Guess l'll try the same stunt. l got to get my tonsils out, anyhow, giggled Edith Locke. Genial merriment spread over the little company. Well, Elinor, seeing you won't show us your outfit l guess we had better sprint, smiled Christie Thomp- son, in hope that Elinor might weak- en. A babble of voices ensued and then in a chorus of So longs! and Good-byesl the girls tripped gaily off, leaving Anna and Elinor alone. The two girls again resumed their I6 THE LINCOLNIAN walk. The conversation dwelt rriain- ly on the foolish prattle of their friends: then it drifted into a little bit of seriousness. Anna, why don't you join in the conversation more? The girls don't know what good fun you are. Don't be so shy. l don't know what it is, Elinor. that makes me so shy, Anna replied. I suppose they must think l am dreadfully stupid. Oh, Anna, they all know that you are not stupid. If you would get in with the crowd you wouldn't be so bashful. Anna looked up at Elinor with one of her rare smiles, and said: l'll try. Here the two girls parted. Elinor lived a few blocks west of Anna's home. Surely, you'll try. Well. so long, concluded Elinor and left with a cheerful nod. So long, Anna returned, and then walked slowly down the street. thoughtful. The group of girls after they had left the two chums walked to the chocolate shop for their daily supply of sweetmeats. l wonder what Elinor sees in Anna that makes her go with her all the time, Mary Strathmore remark- ed. Anna probably knows some- thing, but she never talks when we meet her. lf you do say something to her she gets fussed and blushes as if she were being introduced to Doug. Fairbanks. But l bet Elinor will be a queen in her new dress, interrupted Tot Meredith, still interested in Elinor's outfit. She liked Anna. All the girls did, for that matter, but Anna was too slow for companionship. So she turned the conversation to a more interesting subject. Elinor looks good in everything shemwearsk We shave got to admit that she has good looks, Christie Thompson added. Now that they had come to the chocolate shop, they placed them- selves on the stools before the foun- tain of youth. Here they always had great fun teasing the red-headed, freckle-faced, giggling soda dispenser. He told them whatever they wanted to know about the village populace, for at least three-fourths of its num- ber visited his place of business once a week. when he had prepared the con- coctions they ordered he began his usual stutter. l g-g-g-got some more news for you! Have you, Brick? the girls said. continuing to eat, not being much concerned in what he might say to- day. Yeah, Brick grinned. Well, let's have it, said Tot, dis- interested. W-w-w-well, a f-f-f-friend of yours has left t-t-t-town, he continued. Who? Tot said, still eating. D-d-d-doctor Richards, he con- cluded, his face wrinkled with a grin from ear ot ear. The four girls ceased eating: they shouted in chorus, Doctor Rich- ardsl lmmediately the four heads looked around to see if anyone was there to hear. But no one had heard them. The only listener in the shop was a little lad who was diligently draining a soda glass, the noise of which was sufficient to distract his attention from anything that might be said. Cone? they questioned, fearfully disappointed. Yea, f-f-f-for a day, Brick re- plied, giggling because he had tricked the girls. The four damsels cast him haughty glances, finished their ice cream. L ggggg T THE LINCOLNIAN I7 bought their candy, and trotted home- ward. As Anna was nearing her home a crowd of youngsters hailed her. Turn- ing about, she saw them hurrying after her in excited haste. With the children Anna was perfectly at ease. Stooping down, she welcomed the lit- tle group and caught the smallest child in her arms. The little, chubby fellow, apple-checked and dimpled, wiggled about and chuckled. He was happy. An-na, he said. Yes, it's An-na, she replied, tickling him with her chin. One of the boys spoke next. Oh, Anna, when kin we go to the woods on a picnic, Anna? he asked. You don't want to go, do you? Sure! all the youngsters cried. Let me se?how will tomorrow do? Creati shouted the boys. Coodyl Goody! yelled the girls. Then all of you come to my house - tomorrow morning at ten o'clock. Now, don't forget. We'll all be there, Anna: we will. all right. These last words were spoken in various tones, but in the minds of the speakers was the one thought- they were to go on a picnic with Anna. Bye-An-nal the smallest child called after her. This meeting with the children had cheered Anna, so she was happy- hearted as she ran up onto the back stoop and into the kissed her mother, the table for dinner. Mrs. Walters brick house. She who was laying was pleased to see her daughter in a happy mood and listened to her plans for the morrow. And did you enjoy your walk with Elinor? her mother asked. Y-yes, Anna ansyered. Yes, we had a splendid stroll thru the woods. Elinor is such pleasant company: l always like to go with her. Anna had liked the stroll thru the woods, but the meeting with the oth- er girls, her shyness, and Elinor's mention of it, had made her feel bad. She did not want her mother to know this, but her mother had noticed it long before and was trying to help her daughter overcome it. However, preparations for the picnic began af- ter dinner, taking Anna's mind into a realm of pleasure. Clear, cool evening beautified the ending of this spring day. Anna sat on the front porch, where her mother was knitting, and there she visualized her plans for the next day's outing. Elinor was also out on her front porch, nodding to passersby, sewing, and thinking occasionally of Anna. The other four girls were completing the day together. They had been playing tennis and were now coming home. En route from the courts they passed the oflice of Dr. Richards. Therefore a discussion of him was in order and it immediately proceeded, gaining in speed as the girls neared their homes. DR. RICHARDS, however, was un- aware of this popularity as he sat on the Limited, homeward bound from New York. He was looking out at the Heeting country landscape and watching the blazing sunet. He had lived in the village as a little boy: then he went with his parents to a western city, where he remained until his college life began. While he was in college his father died. His moth- er now came to live with him, where they became very companionable to each other. At the end of his school career he had a chance to be of ser- vice to his country. Upon leaving for overseas his mother went to the village to live in her father's old home, and while Dick Richards was I8 THE LINCOLNIAN abroad she passed away. The life he had led with his mother formed the fondest memories he cherished while in France, and her death saddened him. The strain of battle, however, prevented him from feeling the great grief and time eased his sorrow. On his safe return to America he decided it would be best to start his practice in his home village. So he was liv- ing in his grandfather's house and was establishing a good beginning. The purchase of instruments had brought him to New York. Now having accomplished his work he was returning to the village. Darkness had blotted out the scenery from the traveler's view, so Dick turned his chair about and started to read. Soon his eyes fell from the book and passed down the aisle, noticing the passengers. He possessed an inher- ent liking for studying human nature and this afforded a good opportunity. ln one seat was sitting a girl, titter- ing and simpery because of the at- tentions of a gentleman. Next to her an elderly woman looked discontent- edly at a book. Farther up the aisle a bored-looking feminine individual gazed at the black landscape. Dick did not like these types. He put on his cap and went onto the rear plat- form. The train had now stopped at a water tank. ln the night air he heard the creak of the frogs, and he liked this. Dick liked nature, for it made him feel good to be near it. Then there was a shunting of cars, a clanging of a bell at the road cross- ing and the train rolled on, its wheels a steady rhythm against the The lights of a disappearing were soon obliterated, and after the lights in the car were being darkened. All the occu- pants of the car had retired, so Dick went inside and made his way to the sleeper for the night. beating tracks. village shortly Anna awoke early in the morning. She had just finished packing her lunch baskets when the first of the youngsters appeared. You are certainly on time, Danny, old boy. Y'bet l am, Anna. l brought my fish pole. Did you? Fine! At ten o'clock all the picnickers, ten strong, except Patsy Morrison, were assembled in the Walters' kitch- en. Patsy when she saw Dan with a fish pole had to have one, too, so she went home after her brother's. promising she would be back in a minute. Patsy did come back, but the in a minutei' if multiplied by thirty would be a more accurate statement of the time of her second arrival. Into the jolly woods they tramped. Morning mist sparkled on the trees, but the sun would take this away and then in some open plot of grass near the river they would have their picnic. Dick Richards arrived home that morning. After going home for breakfast he went to his office. As his instruments had not yet come. he could not work with them, and as he had no engagements until in the afternoon he left on a walk thru the woods. I-low beautiful and soothing the woods were to himl lt was a a thin profusion of color veiled by gray mist. Gradually the sun pierced this curtain of vapor and the near at hand took on shape. right a river, bright blue mixed with white foam where the sunshine caught objects To his it, and an emerald green in the shad- ows of the overhanging, shrubbery- covered sides flowed swiftly on its downward course. Slowly the other colors molded themselves into masses of ferns, their dew-covered leaves sparkling under the light of the sun: into shrubs bordering the roadway that lengthened in a winding course THE LINCOLNIAN I9 through more trees: into flowers of brilliant hues, and lastly into a sea of gold, the sky. The mist had now nearly all dispersed and the sunbeams filtering thru the green verdure form- ed golden paths which seemed to lead to heaven. ln and out among the trees, birds circled and twittered, ad- ding glorious life to the scene. How wonderful this magnificence of nature was to Dick Richards! How he wanted to have someone with him to enjoy this beauty! lf only he had his mother to talk to! Girls he had known, but with none had he felt the freedom of expressing his innermost and deeper feelings, for he had a mortal fear of being laughed at. Now he felt lonely and he wanted above everything else a friend. Breaking away from his reverie he took out his pocketknife and cut a twig from a tree, to whittle. Slowly he mean- dered over the road, stopping at in- tervals to look longer at the varying woodland scenes or to watch, per- haps, a woodpecker drill holes in a tree. Once when Dick stopped he thought he heard voices singing. He listened, but he believed it must be some sound his fancy had created, so he wandered on a little farther. More distinctly the voices now' sounded, followed by faint echoes. These were human tones, not fanciful. Thru the trees he saw a pathway leading to a sunlit, open plot: perhaps this was the direction from which they came. Dick, curious, followed the path that, taking him to the light, climbed to a knoll which looked off into a radiant, moss-covered valley. ln that little valley fairies were dancing around their queen and paying her homage with songs. This thought Hashed thru Dick's mind: then he saw a cir- cle of merry children and a young girl, her dark, heavy hair blown by the breeze, dancing in the most grace- ful fashion he had ever seen, the dance of the fairies. At Hrst he did not move, but silently, as if held by magic, he watched the girl. Then quietly and unnoticed he descended the hill and as the girl dropped down onto the grass with the children he expressed his appreciation by a hearty handclap. The children look- ed from the stranger to the girl and back to the stranger again in mute bewilderment. The girl was surprised and with a quick, nervous movement twisted up her hair into a loose knot. My, but that was a beautiful dance, little girl. l hope l have not intruded, but l would appreciate an invitation to this party of yours. , Although the girl did not know this stranger, his sincerity of manner won her confidence in him. Why, we should like to have you, most certainly. l- she began, but was interrupted by a child's voice. Running toward her was a small girl carrying a fish in one hand ,and a pole in the other. Oh, Anna! l gotta fish! l gotta fish! yelled the girl. lt was Patsy Morrison, the tomboy. The children clustered about Patsy as she held her prize aloft. Danny, he caught three, but he says he won't come till he gets an- other and- At this point Patsy noticed that the party had grown since she was present last, and immediately she rec- ognized its new member. Why, hullo, Dic. Richards! l didn't know you was comin'. When did you get here? The name struck Anna speechless. Fortunately Patsy aided her for the moment by entering into the conver- sation with her prattle about the fish. Now, being forced to overcome her shyness, Anna soon became an inter- esting hostess. Dr. Richards noticed the slight Hush come over her face 20 THE LINCOLNIAN and, realizing her timidity, aided her in overcoming it. . Boys, Anna ventured, let's get the fire started and boil some water. Buddy, you and Robert gather the chips, and Harry will get the water from the spring. The doctor helped in erecting a device from which the pail was sus- pended, and made the fire. ln an- other minute the little blazes circled into the air. Anna spread a white cloth upon the ground and graced it with tempting eatables. Then when the tea was made the group of chil- dren, Anna and the doctor seated themselves on the grass to partake of the lunch. And even Danny. de- spite the fact that he had not caught the other fish, came in answer to the luncheon call. ' Late afternoon found the picnick- ers homeward bound. Dick Richards on that walk gradually saw and felt that in Anna he had found a girl with whom he might speak freely about the thoughts he loved, for she, too,'loved'nature's fair beauties. The sweet and natural way Anna had with each child that ran to her with some fiower or some grievance impressed him deeply. The youngsters, some of them tired, but all happy, parted in front of Anna's gate. Not one neglected to express his childish pleasure and the hope of another picnic soon. Here at the gate Dick met Anna's mother. Although Mrs. Walters did not resemble his mother in stature or appearance, Dick recognized in her the same charm his mother had possessed-the spirit of motherliness. Dick as he left the Walters home knew that he had met a real friend, one of whose acquaintance he night be proud. A few evenings later an excited and unusual Anna darted into Eli- nor's home. So different and full of life she was, compared with what even she, her chum, had been accus- tomed to seeing her, that Elinor felt powerless for a moment. But it was only for a moment. Joy over this change in Anna immediately took the place of surprise ,and quickly an eagerness to know the cause fol- lowed. Elinorl Oh, Elinor! burst -out Anna. Something wonderful has happened! What is it? breathed Elinor. l am going to the dance. Yes, Elinor put in, coming closer. And who do you suppose is going to take me? who do you think? Anna was vitalized all thru her body. Oh, tell me, quick. Don't keep me guessing, her chum pleaded eagerly. Doctor Richards! Words did not come to Elinor to express her feeling. If they had, she probably would not have used them. Her eyes dilated, her smile became more radiant and she took Anna in her arms. Oh, Anna, you don't know how glad l am. Quickly Anna related the meeting in the woods to Elinor, the picnic, and the walk home. Then he came this afternoon to call, and-asked me to go to the club dance, she explained, and added has- tily, Oh, we'll have to hurry and get my outfit made. The days before the event num- bered five. ln those few days were crowded such preparations that the dressmaker, Anna's mother, and the two girls were kept busy until the night of the dance. The rustic ballroom decorated with bluebells and greenery, a-glimmer with the beautiful gowns of the girls and women, and lighted by bright- hued paper lanterns, presented a pic- THE LINCOLNIAN W 2l turesquei scene. Here again was the same crowd of girls, this time with their boy escorts. They had collect- ed and were engaged in a mile-a- minute chatter when Elinor entered with Bud Fisher. Immediately the conversation turned to her, but at this moment the orchestra began a catchy rhythm which set the dance in motion. Before Tot Meredith be- gan, however, she managed to whis- per in Elinor's ear: .. . . .. Your dress is one winner. At the end of the first number Christie Thompson remarked to Eli- nor: nl see Alice Mathew didn't bring her friend, the Doctor. lt looks as if he isn't'coming. said Edith Locke, because all the girls in town seem to be here al- ready. An amused twinkle lit up Elinor's eyes. The second selection soon started the whirl of dancers gliding over the Hoor. Presently a newly-arrived couple swung into step and mingled with the crowd. Several people nodded to them and then watched them quizzi- cally. But when Christie Thompson caught a glimpse of them she recog- nized one and was mystified at the other. There's Doctor Richards, she said, but who is that girl with him? She could not see distinctly under the dim lights any distinguishing fea- ture in the doctor's partner. But Christie did see that she was a most capable dancer. ln another corner of the ballroom Edith Locke also rested her wonder- ing eyes curiously on the same cou- ple.

But who in the world is that with him? And at this moment Tot Meredith stepped on her partner's feet and embarrassed him still more by caus- ing a collision with a dignified old couple who were trying to navigate gracefully ot the punch bowl. Jack, she gulped, and ,then in order to avoid being conspicuous she struggled to get in step again. What is ,the matter? the boy questioned. jack, she said, did you see what l saw? Oh, quit your 'kiddingf Tot. What did you see now? Was-that Doc. Richards and Anna Walters who just swung by? Tot asked incredulously. Where? Jack Porter looked around in startled surprise. Here, as the music of the second selection ended, Mary Strathmore caught Tot by the arm. Did you see Anna with the Doc- tor? she excitedly asked. lt was she, was it? Why, l was so surprised. l step- ped in all directions. Eight young people from several different parts of the hall looked eagerly, as the crowd separated, in search for the doctor and Anna. Fi- nally they saw them. They were standing with Elinor and Bud and gaily talking. What a changed and beautiful girl Anna was, radiantly de- lightful in her new gown! She felt a little shy at first, but she had no time to think of this as the group of happy girls bore down upon her and 22 THE LINCOLNIAN showered her with compliments. This was'the Anna they would cherish as a companion, the girl whom they had never known in truth.

The Soldier Speaks T last it is over and we have come homel It has been a mighty experience--one that a will never forget, but which stand out in his mind, to his fortune or misfortune, a towering crag above the uninteresting plane of the commonplace. l was a drafted man. Not for the reason that l was uninterested in progress or that l was necessarily a coward fl was really a very average young fellowj, but because l had 111811 must some dependents relying on me and was deeply engrossed in my own al- fairs. But after l had registered and when my questionnaire arrived l cheerfully signed away all claim to exemption and waited, not entirely without eagerness, for my call to the service. There is something about it that grips men's souls. It is not the kill- ing nor the being killed, but it is the thought that one is doing his bit in the great sacrifice: that he is helping out a great ideal. You feel the com- raddship of all the nations and the friendship of every person as you meet them. lt seems that one is making humanity his debtor instead of being always the creditor, and it is a great feeling. And so we went ot the camps. The life there was far from easy: it was grim work, deadly business: and to watch the men drill with the rifles bayoneting the dummies gave me a ghastly feeling of the realistic. But l was used to the rough life. I had been raised in the hills and the long hikes and tiring toil held few terrors for me. l would finish up a day's drill in fresh good spirits when many another less fortunate youth was in the last stages of exhaustion. l was no Hercules, but l really had remark- able endurance for a young fellow of my age. Those months of drill changed me but very little. l was more quick to execute an order and probably more mechanically smooth in execution, but l had still the same youthful mind, the easy cheerfulness and lack of re- sponsibility which had been my early characteristic. Now and then an uncomfortable thought would lodge itself in my brain that whispered that possibly l should never come back. It stuck presistently several times, but l would throw all that to the winds and try to occupy myself with work. On Saturdays we would always flock into town and liven things up a trilie. We did not want to think, the general feeling of the young fellows was to see some life now, really live, for soon it might be too late. T The older men were mostly more quiet and thoughtful than we. They were not afraid to think as we were and the men with families were often silent and grim. A few were unruly and were not pleased with the situa- tion, and it was rumored that there had been an execution of one too independent an unfortunate. l re- member, also, a few who called them- selves conscientious objectorsn-the officers said they were merely pro- German or just afraid to get into the great mix. One grave, strong-faced man l remember who refused even to work in a military capacity. He was court-marshaled and given twenty years in a federal prison as an ex- ample. just before he started on his term he was offered a last chance to come back, but he refused it. l saw him just before he left to serve his term and there was a strange luster in his eyes and it struck me that he did not look like a man to be afraid. We younger fellows, however, just laughed and bucked in: it seemed to 24 THE LINCOLNIAN l us that the slacgsefri 'gwere choosing the harder route of-the two. ' So the days passed'and the time drew near for our entrainment for the east. On the morning of our de- parture l was in the most sober mood that l had ever up to that time ex- perienced. l felt very sad when l told my mother goodby: not only my own sorrow opprossed me, but the suffering which l knew she felt then and would feel later though she tried bravely not to let me know. For my father, also, while he said but little, l knew that it was a great trial for him. As the train pulled out from the station, my native town, a great lump rose in my throat and an invisible weight seemed to be slowly crushing in my chest. indeed the first day on the crowded train was one of the most gloomy parts of my army experience. Most of us were busy with our thoughts and did not care to listen to those feel like talking. But soon the mist of to clear away and with ful buoyance of youth to our former optimism few who did gloom began all the hope- we returned and thought- lessness, sang songs, told yarns, and thumbed a rather dog-eared deck of cards to speed the dragging hours on their way. We arrived at Camp Mills a very weary, dirty, but tran- quilly cheerful lot of men after nearly a week in the passing. Circumstances were somewhat diflierent in the cos- mopolitan city of war, but everything bustled and moved with such a vim that we could not but feel the vi- tality of the great city which lay so near us. l managed to make several excursions about New York and was greatly impressed by its magnitude. its splender, and r-ish: its great ca- pacity for doing things. Here, too, the feeling among most of the men was to see some life be- fore we left, and every opportunity found us in' the swing of the city to have one more purple passage while chances were good. We were not destined to remain long at Camp Mills, however, and the end of a few weeks found us ready to pass down the gang plank to transport for over-seas. Of that trip l can say but little: leaving New York did not have a similar effect to our departure from home. .We were anxious to be on our way and see what lay before us. Then, too, it was the first ocean trip for many and the novelty of the experience relieved the situation of the monotany of our long train trip. We made a brief stay in England though we managed to see but very little of the country and soon we found ourselves in the realm of the Royal Lilies. Here it was rather damp and seemed to put in a good share of the time raining, but as no one there seemed to bother about the rain we set our faces and tried to make the best of it. lt was grim business here, no child's play to be sureg we drilled steadily during our brief stay of six weeks, often under the supervision of French officers. But what gave us the greatest feeling of reality was the rumbling of the far-off, growling thunder away to the east and north: the voice of the great war calling out to us to prepare for a terrible tomorrow. We were moved again, this time into a rear-guard station among the reserves. We were seeing signs of war now and beginning to realize the vast scale on which battles were be- ing fought. From the few papers that we managed to lay hands on and from talking with the other Lnen we learned that the enemy had, since spring, been driving into the heart of France with all the desperation of a dying hope of chance. We also learned that by means of the timely THE LINCOLNIAN 25 aid of the American forces the tide had been checked and that we had fallen heir to the task of starting it back again. Well l remember the night before we first went into action-there could be no mistaking such preparation. It was to be our great experiment and we hoped that we would not fail. Up to this time l had been a man of my only little reflection. For months thought had been live and to take my chances, face death with a laugh: if l came through all well and good, if l went west it could not be helped and l would not be alone. But as l lay there in the darkness and quietude of the night my carefully erected stoicism of feeling and immunity to thought began to melt and give way before the onrush of new emotions. -My mind reached out and in an instant spanned the five thousand miles between myself and home. l thought of my mother and the care- free smile died on my lips. There are those who invest their time and efforts, their very lives in the making of money or in some similar pursuit until it becomes all that they care for: but my mother had devoted and consecrated herself to the raising of her boys. Her willingness and desire to sacrifice her own pleasures and comforts for their benefit was due to the fact that she lived not for herself but for them and to see them happy and well supplied with every advant- age possible. If some cause should arise which would call the men who live to gather riches to give up their lives' accumulation for a principle, most of them would fail to come for- ward to the sacrifice and if forced would surely raise a sorry din: but my mother had given what she had spent her life in carefully molding and more. Many people can see what they have worked for vanish and stoop and build it up with worn- out tools but she had not only given her life's produce but her ideal: and when the ideal is gone life is a blank. l looked also at my father, he who had never been so eternally youthful, so cheerful, and full of hopes. But he was growing old and in his hair there were streaks of silver and as l looked his shoulders seemed to stoop a trifle more, his gray head bowed while all the careful plans and specu- lations which we were to finish on my return faded dim, and l choked and shut my eyes on a little house- hold shrouded in the terrible shadow of gloom. As l lay there with the far-off din of the high explosives rolling to my feverish ear it seemed to me that l was a coward going laughing into battle and possibly to an easeful death while my old parents suffered many times the pangs of death and stood alone, weakened, to fight the great battles of life that should have been mine. Then my mind's eye turned in up- on myself and l began to wonder if l were really what I had believed my- self to be. Was l ready to face death? Had l lived long enough in this life to be ready to leave it now? Was l as carefree and fearless as l had tried to make myself believe? Then my thought drifted to religion and l wondered what my religion really was. As I have said l had been a man of little contemplation and tho during all my life l had been trained along the orthodox path it had been merely a form with me and had had no deep effect, as is true, l believe, in many more cases than we usually suspect. Suddenly the question presented itself: How do I know but that this thumb-wom re- ligion of ours may be but a form of revised mythology, for while we are trained to believe one, yet stripped of its halo of undoubtability one seems as absurd as the other. How was I 26 THE. LINCOLNIAN to know but that some other man's religion, the Hindoo's belief in rein- carnation or any other creed might be the truth and my own involuntarily accepted ideas far astray? Might not all these religious doctrines be merely man-made confessions of his own weakness and a resignation to all philosophy by attributing the infinite, inconceivable universe to be the work of a god to relieve his own mind of the task of accounting for its exist- ance? That night, as l lay there with my face to the stars staring into the dark- ness alone with my thoughts, l made the change from the thoughtless boy into a philosopher. Not that l wish to boast: l merely wish to say that l became a man, for all men are phi- losophers. Then the great questions, doubts, and fears that come to all men poured in upon me and l strove long to answer and to understand that which may only be answered by long experience and thought and possibly then only by resignation. My brain worked with feverish clearness and speed and my mind leaped up follow- ing new paths, climbing heights where it had never explored before, ever plunging in and bringing forth from the inner apartments of my brain the plunder of all former reading with amazing accuracy. But again and again it was baffled as if facing the unanswerable, again leaping up in a wild frenzy to know, until this Mind seemed to possess my whole person, gripping me with a great strength, amazing me by its violence of desire like a great chained monster beating at its fetters and prison walls until they rocked in its madness to free its self and know the truth. This was a new experience for me and there was something wonderful about it that held me spellbound like a child with a new plaything. l had never had time to realize before in my rush for a good time and seeing life that there was within myself the most marvelous creation in the Universe, the mind of a man, for it is really a part of the Great Supreme, whatever that may be. As these new thoughts crowded fast on each other through my mind they filled me with a sudden wild exhilaration and my spirit seemed to rise the prison of darkness and seek divine joy among the clouds of light. l wanted to live-live to think, to create everything all anew for myself and find what l really was and what l thought. l wanted to learn more and to bring the spoils of great read- ing to feed this strong new appetite. Then l knew that l was afraid. Life had a new luster for me now and l wanted to live to remember this great war that l might some day tell of it to my children. Even in my former doze l had realized that the world was beginning to move in a new orbit: that the great things were happening now, greater and swifter events would come soon. The whole world was seething, struggling for a new birth, a renaissance and even in this day of slaughter: Bliss was it that dawn to be alive. But to be young was Heaven. Was it to be thus awakened and then to die? The thought of the trenches and the approaching struggle with grim death chilled me and make me shudder. There was none of the glory of war here: it was just numb- ing, terrible realityg dying like corn- ered rats in a hole. l have heard of and even talked to me who claim not to be afraid in battle, who, according to their story, like to fight. l know of but two pos- sibilities where human beings may be unafraid in modern warfare: one is lacking the necessary intelligence to realize the conditionsg the other, being so weary of life that death, even in THE LINCOLNIAN 27 this form, has no terrors for one. ln the first case the individual would be merely an object of pity, in the second, he is really a coward, for the great battle of life has so broken and cowed his spirit that he shows white and flies in despair to his last refuge -death. But for a man in all the strength and glory of youth, with high plans for the future and with a great en- thusiastic desire to live and progress, and see ideals completed: for him to go down into the Valley of the Great Shadow by sheer force of spirit and face a thousand forms of loathsome death, takes courage. Somehow that night passed and I arose the next morning in a strangely excited condition, intensified by an absolutely sleepless night. After six hours of the most terrible suspense conceivable, we went into action. At last our trial had come and we did not fail in the hour of great need. For four days we threw ourselves upon the enemy's lines and sent him reeling back toward his own territory. At the end of that time we were given a short rest and then moved to Soissons, where l was -gassed, Rheims, Verdun and finally to the Argonne Forest, the remembrance of which is etched upon my brain with terrible clearness. Here, while going over in my last service, l was shot through the chest and both legs by machine-gun fire. During alliof my experience under fire l was highly conscious of the great strain under which we all acted. ln the most ap- palling positions l seemed like one in a dream, scarcely knowing what was happening. My Argonne adventure nearly suc- ceeded in dispatching me West and l lay for several weeks on the border- land between the living and the dead. But even when the doctors despaired of me my constitutional strength and toughness of fibre, gained in the hill- lands of the West, came to my rescue. ln the hospital again my newly-ac- quired thoughts came to me once more and again l lay wakeful thru long nights, when sleep should have quieted me, and let my stimulated mind work over-time in the develop- ment of new ideas. l had seen something of war and its disastrous effect upon the life and health, the intelligence and the morals of nations, and was convinced that it could accomplish very little. It could stop the German hordes, but that was all. War can notlmake the world safe for democracy, war can not make the world a decent place to live in, war can not make an end to wars. War breeds hatred, hatred breeds war. When any group of per- sons grow so sure of the truth of their views that they must force them on others by means of arms, just then another group, equally sure of their honesty and justice, grow tired of the normal means of accumulating power and spreading doctrine and resort to arms: the liberal progressive forgets that evolution is the only sure way and resorts to revolution: the conservative, unwilling to stand on the judgment of an over-wrought public, hold to the old order not by justice but by the arms they control. War destroys the riches which have been slowly accumulated thru the ages, it kills the best of manhood and depraves the mental and moral ua- tures of the participants, changing them from sensible, cool and kindly crazy, chauvenistic, animal by hatred and passion. lt moral nor practical. War people to controlled is neither never was moral, but for a long time men have delusion that war was practical! What fools ye mortals bel been laboring under the What we need is men to think for themselves. l had followed my course 28 THE LINCOLNIAN ' because that was what every one else did. Had l been born in Germany l would have been found in the front trench fighting all that was best in the world in fear of death and longing for peace, because that was what most Germans were doing. It made me think of thaht strong-faced ob- jector to war who l had seen many months before go quietly to a ewenty- year prison term, to a position of social ostracisrn because he was man enough to follow the dictates of his own conscience. The officer said he was a coward and treated as they would any ordinary criminal. But what would have been the story had there been a few thousand more heroes like this coward in Germany, or a few thousand less heroes like the cowards who rushed to a miser- able death upon the bleeding hosts civilization because they were afraid to do otherwise? The trouble is not that we have too many men of con- science in America but too few in Germany. Few who have attacked these men claimed that they were not moral, but contended that they were not practical: but practicality has not always proved a good judge of ethics. When we have a world full of people who will not kill each other because they are told to do so then we may look forward to the itme forseen by Robert Service: When Hans and Fritz and Bill and me Will click our mugs in fraternity And the brotherhood of labor shall be The brotherhood of peace. ln my days of convalescence I worked long on my salvation of man. l built a Utopia, l civilized humanity, I brought to earth the end of wars and the brotherhood of man. But when my carefully erected air-castles confronted reality, when my passion- ately soaring hopes were .arrested from their elevated Flight and brought to cool their heels in the dark, frosty chambers of cold facts, l often felt that progress moved in a vehicle more decripit than the proverbial snail. When my faith weakened, my en- thusiasm chilled, l would throw the political economy and the shade of my tired eyes aside and walk out under the open sky 'to be refreshed. Here the night breeze cooled my weary brain and the quiet stars lifted the petty cares of this small world from my shoulders and their beauty entered my soul to be food and drink. Then revived and again hopeful l would return to my den, but now l turn to my literature, to the prophets of hope, and climb with them, the best minds of the ages, to the spotless, snow-crowned heights of inmortal poetry or to dig deep into the rich mines of divine philosophy. Oh! l know if it were not for literature our mad-houses would be over-flowing. So after the battle we have strag- gled home again. We have accom- plished all that armies may do and must leave to the honesty of states- men and the decency of public opin- ion the task of making a world that is fit to live in and safe for mankind. lf men do not wake up after this bomb- shell l shall have to say with Mark Twain, that l am ashamed of the human race. It is our work ot move ong if we fail. on our heads fall the results. Only the future will tell what our ffeorts have accomplished. Ad Captandum Vulgus fAn attempt, By ELMER WRIGHT The fiower of love has leisure for growing, Music is heard in the evening breeze, The mountain stream laughs loud in its Hnwing, And poesy wakes by the eastern seas. HE arrival and departure of the steamer at the little port of Koholalele was always an oc- casion for the Konakas to indulge in a holiday: the men would come in from the plantations, dressed in their best, and the women would be re- splendent in gay calico mother hub- bards. Apart from the various crowd of merrymakers at the wharf stood a little group of a dozen or so white people-missionaries and planters. Yes, l know just how it feels, Miss Jardin, spoke Mrs. johns, the wife of the missionary. When I landed here with my husband l would have given anything to see my mother back in the states. There was a lump in my th'roat that was choking me. l couldn't swallow-the lump would neither go up nor down. The young woman addressed was about twenty-five years of age, with dark hair, blue eyes, and a nose slightly turned up: admirable teeth and a complexion to which the tropical sun was threatening speedy ruin. Withal, Alife Jardin was a very vivacious-appearing young woman, very generous with her smiles-Alice's smile was indeed bewitching-in fact, as some of the bookkeepers said later, it produced the same effect as tasting the lotus Hower. Two weeks later. Scene: The veranda of the mis- sionary's cottage. Mrs. Rogers, her peice, and one of the young men from the office are conversing upon the porch. Jack Cray is a very en- gaging young man whose father has sent him down here from the states to discipline him. He has quite won the graces of the minister, Mr. johns, and his wife, in the year he has been in the island, and as Mrs. Rogers notes, of Alice herself in the scant two weeks they have been on the island. K Jack is praising in very flowery phrases the virtues of the island, and he tells of the glorious sunsets and the moon in the summer months and the enchantment of a tropical night -a moon, a gentle Pacific breeze, and the mournful, melodious sounds of the not far distant Kanakas sing- ing before their huts. How much like the old planta- tion days of my girlhoodn Mrs. Rogers interrupted. lf there were only banjoes instead of ukeleles and uncle jake bringing out nice cool- Stop!-enough!

Mr. Gray, isn't this that awful man whom we saw yesterday and you told me About later? asked Alice. For a figure came up the pathway toward the house and then walked toward the trio on the porch. jack arose and lit a lamp which was suspended from the ceiling of the porch. By its rays they saw a gaunt man with shaggy beard and hair streaked with gray and a sun-browned face. The man seemed wilder than any of the savages yet seen by any- one on the island, with his uncovered matted head, his ragged shirt open at the neck, and sleeves torn to the shoulders. His trousers were ab- 30 THE LINCOLNIAN breviated, disreputable affairs sup- ported by a piece of rope about the waist. l-le stated his errand, which con- cerned the minister and sat down upon the steps while Alice went in search of Mr. johns. Jack discussed the man and told Mrs. Rogers about him. It was not a pretty tale he told -one of idleness and perpetual drunkenness it was-of days when the man seemed mad: and others when his brain was clear and he was easily the master of all. Mrs. Rogers undertook his defense, arguing that when a person loses his ideals and all other incitements to better one- self go, fear or remorse following up must scourge him forward-. At this point the beach-comber rose and came toward the couple. l overheard your defense, madam, of my present condition. l thank you. And you, jack Cray, do not know what it is to have such a temptation put in your way as was put in mine. l wonder what you would do in my place. His tongue loosened, he talked on and on, philosophizing on life, quoting from Shakerpeare and Emerson, and then he spoke of the spell of the tropics-the singing of drpiping waters, the rustle of the palm in the breeze--how in this land forgotten was trouble: one dreamed of love and happiness while the gleaming Southern Cross shone brightly in the sky-and how the Hawaiian sun grips your very heart. The minister appeared and the fel- low delivered a note he had. As he turned to go Mrs. Rogers laid her hand on his arm. Won't you finish your story? How can the story of a drunken life possibly amuse you or this young gentleman here? And the parson has preached several sermons for my benefit, so what Mr. Gray may say will hardly reform me. But-l thank you for your kind words, madan. When other incitements fail, fear and remorse following behind must scourge men forward. Yes, madam, in a low voice, l am going forward. Wait just and get that upper drawer with you, it may help you. a moment.

His gaze is restless and he walks quickly, look- ing about apprehensively as if fear- ful of being seen. Another man ap- pears at the corner coming in his direction: he darts into blackened depths of a doorway and is unseen, while this man passes. Rounding a corner 'he bumps into a woman. She starts back as she recognizes him. lt is now under the white Hood of the electric arc light that we recognize the man as jack Gray and the woman with the shawl as Mrs. Rogers. Oh, Jack! How could you-tell me you're not going to leave Alice in this way-ohl what have you in that bag? All this time she is sobbing incoherently. Take your hand from me--l am through with your scolding-you- you have spoiled my hom+yes, you with your miserable Puritan notions. Mrs. Rogers interrupts him, but he goes ruthlessly on: l go across the island. ln the morning l sail upon a steamer at an eastren port, and neither you nor this little domineer- ing sugar company will ever see me again, and he added, patting 'his bag. a good share of its money. THE LINCOLNIAN 31 With this finale he jumped into a light trap which was harnessed and waiting for him and slipped away into the darkness. May l be of any service to you, Mrs. Rogers?

Mrs. Rogers, drying her tears, told her story: how her neice had married this man and she had come to live with themg how Jack was at first suc- cessful but in later years was failing: of all the dishonorable rumors she heard about' him and how she remonstrated with him, and he scorned her advice: finally of his of affection for his wife while she still loved him as ever. She took upon herself the blame. Yet the man who had been the beachcomber could not see how she could possibly be the cause for any man leaving his home, for she was tall and handsome -tho her hair was graying a little. had had had loss Now passion is always a curious thing. The beachcomber, for we may still call him such, know that the happiness of the woman he loved, whom he had loved for ten long years, depended upon the happiness of her neice. Passion, as has been said, is complex, always. Like white light it consists of many various colors none of which are separately discernable except on examination by a prism. It is not always perceived -it expresses itself in a Mona Lisa, a Moonlight Sonata or a Hamlet. With the beachcomber it found ex- pression in his wild scheme for the preservation of the peace of Mrs. Roger's home. Even if he should ride to overtake the fugitive, by the time he had caught him it would be too late to return: for the robbery would be known to all. Briefly he outlined his plan to Mrs. Rogers and much against her will induced her to permit him to follow it out. They awoke the stables, hired a horse, and started in pursuit of the fugitive. The next morning the city was startled by the news of the theft of a large sum of money from the vaults of the sugar company. The vice- president was missing, some even sus- pected that he was the thief. The telephone lines were out of order, Jack had indeed laid his plans well, and the city was cut from all com- munication. Still later in the day the people on the streets were aroused by the appearance of Jack Gray with the missing money. Mrs. Rogers was driving the carriage, for he was un- able to-his condition indicated that he had gone thru a real man's fight. They arrived at the bank and were instantly surrounded by a small crowd. Among them was an officer who stepped forward to arrest him for suspected robbery: but when he heard from a bystander the story of how lack had, single-handed, gone in chase of the robber and in a desper- ate fight secured the money but al- lowed the man to escape and gain the steamer before he could be ap- prehended. His description of the thief was vague, in fact certain points of his story were very loose+at least they appeared so to his wife's aunt. Upon a southern plantation, one which has produced some of the greatest results in the way of scien- tific farming in this great war, in a house which boasts three service stars on its little flag, lives a kindly old gentleman. Tho almost eighty years old he is still quite vigorous and active. With him lives his wife's neice-for his wife has passed on a 32 THE LINCOLNIAN few years-and her daughter and a son who is not in France with his brothers. The niece we may call Mrs. Gray and this venerable gentle- man the beachcomber, the robber of Honolulu. Q30 The Brotherhood of Man HE best interpretation of the phrase The Brotherhood of Man seems to me is given by Newel Dwight I-lillis in his book Man's Value to Society. He says that the business of life is the art of living smoothly and justly with one's fellows and the acquisition of skill in calling out the best qualities in those about us. ln order to do this we must de- velop our three greatest faculties, the body, the mind, and the spirit. By building up these powers that we pos- sess and striving to perfect them, all our relations with our brothers will tend toward the betterment of hu- manity. The first and fundamental faculty, the foundation of our endeavors is the body. Seldom do we find a self- respecting and self-respected man or woman, slouching and slovenly. For he knows that thru this miscarriage of his body ills result which grow into diseases that injure not only himself but put a burden even on his fellow men. So we find that in order to serve our neighbors and the world, as well as ourselves, we must have' vigorous, strong, and healthful bodies. The faculty of the mind holds second place. Here is where educa- tion aids us in training ourselves to master the situations that confront the world. Without education, whether it be from schooling or experience, we can not uplift our standards or those of our brothers. Far-sighted- ness, clear judgment, intelligence are what we need. The most dominant faculty is that of the spirit. ln an oft-repeated com- mandment is expressed the highest attainment of the spirit. Love thy neighbor as thyself. This inner- power that we have has to be allowed to control our body and mind to achieve the more ideal and better life. It should also give love and hope to others and evoke good from even the wickedest and meanest of mankind. Man, we know, is the center of many concentric circles. The first is the homeg the second is the immedi- ate neighborhood: the third is his business: the fourth is the community: the fifth is the world at large. Many of us, although we believe in the doctrine of the Brother of Man, do not practice it in our homes. We feel that our relatives will overlook any mistreatment: we do not realize what help we might give. Oftentimes one of the family is selfish and greedy, desiring more than his share. Then again we might have a parent who is partial to one of his children and neglects the others. We must not have Jan Families if we want com- ing generations to serve humanity. The immediate neighborhood is generally the scene of petty hatreds, jealousies and sometimes quarrels. Be- cause one person has wealth or posi- tion, another, who is not willing to work to acquire these things, perhaps, is jealous. He takes pleasure then THE LINCOLNIAN 33 in any fault he may find against his neighbor. Here he does not see what wrong he is doing to himself. Never can he achieve anything for himself in aiming to destroy what patient labor his brought to his neighbor. We must help our neighbor and our neighbors will help us. The statement has been made in- numerably that the employer gets a maximum return from paying a mini- mum wage to his employees. This has been true in business in past cen- turies and still exists in a less degree' today. However there is also the case where the employee has gotten th maximum wage for a minimum work. He has misused the advantages that have been given. Neither of these are examples of justice and fair play. Education is needed in the business world to teach men to work together. ln the community all of us have a chance to do good. Some of us are leaders able to conduct socials, do church work, or organize clubs. Others, not capable of leadership, can do just as much good by taking care of their own homes and by making them attractive and beautiful places in the community. But one of the most destructive forces in the com- munity life is race prejudice. lmmi- grants coming into this country bring with them the customs and manners of the old world, many of which are distasteful and disagreeable to the Americans. As a result we often hold aloof from them, allowing them to colonize and keep with them their old-world ideas. Then we are not helping them or giving them a chance to become good citizens. Organiza- tions to aid these people should be established and this would give them an understanding of how to live better lives. At the present time the great- est work in assimilating the foreigner with the American-born is being done by the public schools, night schools, and libraries. Our relations with the world at large demand of us all to be good citi- zens, to progress, and to be leaders when called upon. To be a good citizen requires a clear understanding of the affairs taking place about us. This requires education that will en- able us to know what our fellow-men are doing and thinking. We must not condemn our neighbors' ideas if they are against our own views. We should learn what he believes. then take what is good in them and dis- card the rest. ln that way all of us will be good citizens in our country, and progress. Summing up, we find that by de- veloping our body, mind, and spirit along these live lines we can come every year to our goal of a perfect Brotherhood of Man. THE LINCOLNIAN Bang, Bang, Bang!

A Piece of Good Luck By MARIE ITH capable hands rolled in her big, white apron, Mrs. Flanagan stood in the door- way of her neat, yet not too well- furnished, little home in a small town in Southern California. She saw nothing of the brown, rolling hills, for she was watching her husband, clad in dirty shirt, old slouch hat, and grimy overalls, saunter aimlessly out of the yard and down the street towards the town. Mrs. Flanagan turned with a sigh and went back to her work. As if to give vent to her pent-up feelings, she kicked at Pete, the old, gray cat, as he scurried past her. Oh, Pete! do get 'long now! Do get out of my roadl You're the very image of him, always gettin' around in my way, and never on hand to do any- thing, not so much as to even catch a mouse! exclaimed the irritated woman. And barely dodging another blow,' the poor cat escaped by the back door. That forenoon Mrs. Flanagan had to bake eight loaves of bread for one of her neighbors, make curtains for another, finish two aprons for her daughter Mollie, do some ironing for a friend, besides bake a cake for a bazaar and tidy up the house a trifle. Oh, welll what's the use of worrying about it? she sighed, as she paused for a moment to rest, and caught sight of the unfinished tasks. Any- how, she continued, l guess if it was ever anyone that was born to work, it's me, for the lrish are all workers. And with this comforting conclusion to fortify her low spirits she turned to her manifold morning labors. lt was one of those lovely, balmy spring mornings when one is happy just to be living, and before she knew LA BELLE it Mrs. Flanagan was humming a gay little lrish song. Through the open window she saw her husband, who had returned from his walk, busily weeding his garden. lf there was ever any one interested in a garden it was Mr. Flanagan. There was nothing, not even a game of pool, that could lure him away from it, and it may well be said that thi was something to be thankful for, because this was the only thing he did in the line of work, save for mowing the lawn about twice every summer. It was left for Mrs. Flanagan, there- fore, to keep their one daughter, Mollie, in high school and get for her the things she needed, by doing whatever odd tasks she could for her neighbors. She always said that though they were as poor as church mice, some day their luck would change. It was part of her religion to believe this. One morning, a few days later, as she was busying herself about the house she heard footsteps on the porch and a voice calling to her, Oh, l say in therel May I use the phone? The question was asked by a flushed, stout young man, who stood without, nervously twitching his hat in his hand. Why, l guess you can. just step right into the hall, responded good Mrs. Flanagan, directing the way after a comprehensive look' at the red touring-car full of well-dressed actor- folk parked in front of her cottage. The new-comer, after some few minutes of conversation over the tele- phone, hung up the receiver with a bang, exclaiming with the greatest vexation, Well, now, if that isn't tough luckl What are we going to do? 36 THE LINCOLNIAN Of course, kind-hearted Mrs. Flana- gan was all sympathy for the poor young man who looked the picture of distress, and was ready enough to tell her his troubles. He explained that he was the head of The Supreme Motion Picture Company and now, after he had brought his company miles out of the city to stage a very important scene, it was only to dis- cover that one of the actresses was very ill and could not be with them. 'Mrs. Flanagan listened with heart beating almost to suffocation and face alight with the excitement of a great hope. Why couldn't she? She had always wanted to be an actress. She was sure she could be if opportunity would only come her way, and here it was thrown into her very lap. Trembling and fearful that her wild courage might fail her too soon. she asked in hurried voice, Was- was the part very important? Just what part was she to have taken? Oh, sirsll l'd so love to actl I was just thinkin' that if it was to be an lrishwoman or a coon, why, l make up beautiful for either. Here Mrs. Flanagan paused for sheer lack of breath and gazed timorously at the rosy, young man, who was hastily ex- amining her with practised glance. Bless mel Now, maybe you could! ejaculated the youthful man- ager, half-amused at her embarrassed enthusiasm and half-disposed to give his eager listener the chance she so evidently craved. She was to have played the role of negro-mammy. he continued, still making mental note of her large figure, expressive face, and big eyes. I-lm, he mused, l think that maybe you'll do. Anyway you can try and if you make good, you'll get the biggest day's pay you ever got, added the stranger smiling at the happiness shining on Mrs. Flanagan's broad, ruddy face, and de- lighted to find his own gloom turning into sunshine. Mrs. Flanagan, who could do any- thing from a 'cake-walk to hanging her husband, joyfully agreed to do her best, and hustling around deftly prepared a lunch for the entire troupe who, by this time, were fairly ravenous. For this service, she had slipped into her capable hand a crisp fifty-dollar bill, the sight of which al- most took her breath away so unused was she to any but the smallest sums carefully saved and as carefully secreted on the pantry shelf. That afternoon found her out with the company, acting with all her heart, and strength, too, for she was on her knees crawling around among the thick brush and deep grass, hid- ing in an old well with a blonde doll for a child, or shooting the villain and pleading for the life of her dear, colored husband. The time passed all too quickly and the gay crowd dashed off in the scarlet car, leaving her to resume her dreaded household duties. when her husband came home he found the whole house in great dis- order. The kitchen looked as if it had been the assembling place of a Sunday School picnic. The.table and sink were strewn with dirty dishes and food in a fashion such as he never before had witnessed in his wife's usually spotless kitchen. and wonder of wonders! there was no one at work even attempting to set things to rights. Mr. Flanagan became alarmed. ' BridgetI he called in a loud voice. Bridgetl Are you sick? No, came back faintly from up- stairs. l'm taking a bath. What do you want? Well, jumping Jemimal Who in the world has been here to leave this place in such a mess? snarled the angry husband. Oh, just some picnickers from Los Angeles, replied his wife, sweetly. A little later Mrs. Flanagan ap- THE LINCOLNIAN 37 peared, looking as fresh as a daisy in her gingham dress. A bathtowel scarcely concealed wet strands of thin, wiry hair, but in no way inter- fered with her activities, and after some hustling and bustling around, the kitchen was restored to its natural order. As Mrs. Flanagan was explaining to her slightly mollified husband about the picknickers and showing him fif- teen of the fifty dollars given her, the door opened and Molly, tall and still awkward, came in. She was a girl of about sixteen years of age, possessed of her father's big brown eyes, reddish-brown curly hair, and clear-cut features, and her mother's complexion, as clear as wax delicately tinted with rose. She would have been a striking looking girl had it not been for the cheap, rather poorly- fitting dress that made her clumsy figure appear still culmsier. Hellal everybody. What's going on here, anyway? called Molly in unrestrained fashion, adding before anyone could answer, By the way, Ma, can l have my silk stockings for Saturday? Well, Molly, l've been tryin' to save for them but as fast as l get a few cents your father finds it and spends it for foolishness, replied her mother sadly. That's rightll l Always pick on me, grumbled Mr. Flanagan, resent- ful because he knew she spoke the truth. Here's your mother been makin' fifteen dollars this afternoon and now she's complainin' because l used twenty cents to buy a package of seeds. Seedslu retorted his wife, sharply. You can't tell me you bought any seeds because l know you didn't, she finished in a tone that always precluded any further argument. When Molly heard the joyful news of the lately acquired fifteen-dollar fortune, she gave a happy shout and exclaimed, Oh, goodyll Now l'll have a new hat, the silk stockings and a decent- No you'll not, Molly darlint, protested her mother. I have to pay that money on the grocer's bill: but, she whispered confidentially to her disappointed daughter as Mr. Flanagan slouched out of the room, I have some more, my dear, that will buy those pretty things for you. And she told Molly of the crisp fifty- dollar bill that had dropped so unex- pectedly as if from Heaven itself, and suggested that some of it be set aside as a nest-egg for her college educa- tion. A few days later the postman brought to Mrs. Flanagan a long, im- portant-looking envelope, the con- tents of which set her heart a-flutter by informing her that she had really made good in the play and that the same company would soon be demanding her services again, this time as her real Irish self in what would undoubtedly be the hit of the season. Mrs. Flanagan was so brim- ming over with joy that she could hardly keep the happy secret to her- self. She spent most of her time alternately trying different poses be- fore her little, cracked mirror, and planning what she would say in the note that she would leave to Molly and her husband. On the morning she was to leave she was thrown into consternation by Mr. Flanagan's announcement' that he guessed he would stay at home that day, and it was only after some very clever coaxing that he was persuaded to go on an errand. Breathing freely again, Mrs. Flanagan, after writing the carefully thought-out note that she was going with friends to Los Angeles to set up a cooking school, ran out to the big, purring touring car and rode happily away. A FEW days afterwards, a splendid green roadster with yellow wheels 38 THE LIN COLNIAN stopped in front of the Flanagan cot- tage, and the neighbors, peering from behind kindly-sheltering lace cur- tains, beheld a woman in trim auto tags step out and enter the yard. Mr. Flanagan, sitting idly on the front steps, gazed admiringly at the trim tan boots, snug tan hat tied down with a floating dark-green veil and wondered who his distinguished visitor might be. But as his wander- ing glance rested on the ruddy cheeks and deep blue eyes of the woman, his wonder gave place to a sort of stunned stupidity and he gasped helplessly Bridgetl 'iYes, it's Bridget. Where's Mol- ly? she questioned without prelimi- naries. She's out milkin' the cow. We've been takin' turns, replied the still amazed man. just at this moment Molly herself came running into the house. Oh, mother! protested the girl. Where have you been and why did you go off and leave us that way? she asked all in the same breath. Then, as she spied the car-her ideal car- words could not come fast enough. Her mother, broadly smiling and de- lighted at her surprise, was showered with questions until, to silence them, she told the two to jump into the car for a spin and she would tell her tale in her own way. And Mrs. Flanagan, who always vowed that her luck would change some day, amid the stares and admiring glances of her envious neighbors, whirled away with her family. Jack's Trip to Mt. Tacoma By HOWARD ERICSON EN years ago jack went to the mountainng he was ten years old. What he did and what he saw he has recorded. Here it is set down, lacking only its original scrawl. On june 29 we started on a trip to Mount Tacoma. We took horses and carriages to go with, eight being in the party. We got up at 3 o'clock in the morning and left at 5 o'clock. The menfolks had on kakie suits and also the women had on kakie suits and us boys we had on overalls. When we left we rode down past the car shops and onward until we struck the mountain road. Later when we arrived at the city limits, two miles distance, there was something the matter with the brake so we had to go back to the barn to get it Ext. The fellor there knocked the block off of it and this made us 3 quarters of a hour late. As we went along we enjoyed the scenery and different places. One place we stoped stoped at we had our pictures taking in a mass of ferns and by a big log as tall as we are. The log was laying down. Back farther the ladies had there pic- tures taken and also the men. We rode on until we was about half way and then we stoped and rested the horses while we had lunch, we had sandwitches, pickles, olives, radises and so forth. The eatables that we had for up at the mountain were sent by express on the Tacoma Eastern Railway until Ashford and there a livery wagon got the boxes. When they got them they took them to the Longmire Springs livery. When we left the place where we had our lunch we road across a bridge of the Nis- qually Canyon into a place called Lagrande. ln Lagrande we seen them building a place with big high walls we did not know what it was. We thought it might be a Resorvoyer or Power plant. We kept on riding which said 5 miles to Elbee. l mean a little a man which was driving in a wagon and stoped at the place where we had our lunch. He had two boys with him first and they road on and he got off the wagon and got on the train and road until he got to Elbee and there he got off. The man asked us if we seen until we seen a sign miles to Alder and I4 When we got to Elbee ways passed we seen his boys in the waggon since he was off. Soon after we came to the gate of the Ranier National park. Here you Register that they know you are there in case you get killed or lossed or something happens. Then we kept on going to Longmines and it kept on getting dark. You could here the russel of the trees and the rapids of the nisqually River. We thought we would never get there but afterwards we went around a turn and there was a bunch of tents and the Sun of the Park. It was lit up with japaneese lanterns. We was glad to see them and l guess the horses was too. Soon after we went over to get a tents for the night and then we went to bed, that was the end of that day. The next morning we felt fine be- caus we had slept in a soft bed. lt was cold to get up but we wanted to put up our tents. Soon after the men folks and us kids went over to get the boxes and tents and after a little work our camp was campleted. l took some breakfast over to the women and they built a camp fire and made the coffee. We kids had ours and while we was eating a man came down, he just came from a mineral bath. We asked him if he would like a cup of coffee but he said know, he just came from his 40 THE LINCOLNIAN breakfast before he had his bath. Then we went over to our own tents and got dinner. We had beans sal- mon eggs bread cookies and coffee. In the afternoon we hitched up the horses for a drive to Nisqually gla- cier. Bud and I we stood on the sides of the rig and took short cuts by running up the switch backs and catching th rig on the other side. Soon after we got to the glacier l was disapointed in it, because l thought it was all white but it is brown. It is ice covered with dirt and rock. When we had seen this we went up the Gov. road to Gap s point it is 5,400 feet high. We climbed along big places where the rock caved in. The women got scared when they got about two blocks from the top and went back, but th men and us boys we went to the top. Then we went to the bottom and took the rig and went wizzing home. Then we had supper. We had salmon, eggs, coffee, br ad and beans. Afterwards we went to bed, the bed was hard but soon I was asleep. Today we went to Indian Henery. We left camp at 8 o'clock. We took the trail for a while and Bud and I was ahead. We got to a place where a man was camping. The man he looked kind of funny and we got scared and waited for his pa. After while we got on quite far and every littl while Bud's pa would write comicle notes and leave them on the way. One said O, you kids another Register here fhe meant like we had to do when we entered the parkj and one said have an egg. I'-ie wrote it at the time Bud and I had an egg. Soon we got to -now and I thought I would tak a tumble. I put on my specs. We had a wear smoke glasses so that the sun wont blind you. I put mine on and then we crossed a stream and l went in, -by accident. l only got my foot wet but I had on greased shoes and it didn't hurt. Then we climbed up a mountain or a hill untill we struck a rock and sat down to eat our sandwitches. When we got home that night we was dead tired so we walked over to th shasta water springs and made some lemon- ade. After which we had our pic- ture taken by the fire. It was an exposure. The next day it was Sunday so we got up and had some breakfast. We kids decided we would write some post cards so we went over to the store to get some. When we got there we seen that all they had was Photographfs. They was ten cents a piece or three for a quarter so we didn't take them. We and went home wrote letters. After dinner we road again to the glacier. There we seen a trail and we knew it would take you to Paradise Valley so we thought we would go a littl ways up it. Soon it got steep and slippery and I almost slipped. Then Bud's pa he decided to go back. I-Ie got cold feet and so did we. And we didn't go to Paradise today. This being Monday we got ready for another hike. But when we was all ready, why, Bud's pa he could not find the fillums of his camera, so he told us to get a head and not bother him and he would come later, so us kids we did. When we had walked a little way up the Government road we seen a waggon go wizzing by us and in it was Bud's pa and the rest of the bunch. Now they had got a head of us and we had a run to catch up with them. Bud's pa he said he had left th fillums when we was at Indian Henerys hunting Ground. Then we all went around a corner and we seen a sign post 4 miles to Paradise. So to take this trail to get instead of the Rocky one yesterday. lt was easier. which said we decided to Paradise we went on We walked milkman's brother which was THE. LINCOLNIAN 41 in snow IO. 20 and 25 ft. deep and water running underneath. We met Mr. Bc Mrs. Reese and the cooke which was going up to Reeses camp where the people stay overnight which climb Mr. Tacoma. Soon we seen another sign which said Pari- dise and it pointed the Direction and we went that way and it seemed as if we would not get there. lt seemed you was over one hill when you would get to another. At last we came to Reeses camp and here we had something to eat. We had the same thing that we always did except beans. When we was done we went over and got a drink and in the mean- time the menfolks they went up a foothill. Us kids we followed and then the women hit it up too. The snow it almost blinded us but we kept a going. Then we got to a steep hill which we had to dig our toes in to get up. when we got to the top us kids we hollered to the men folks which was on another foothill now. Then we went to meet them. They come halfway. The snow here it was worse and l had my face in it more than my feet it was so slippery. When we told the men where we had slimbed up they said that we did more than they would give us credit for. Soon we had looked around enough and slid down the hill where we came up. At the bottom there was another which we slid down and had our pictures taken while we was sliding. Now we started home and on the way we finished our lunch. Tonight it was our last night so we had some more Shasta Water. The bed wasn't so hard tonight. The next morning was Tuesday, so we hustled around to get hreakfact and get camp broke up. All of us men and boys we took the boughs and boards back to the place where we got them from. Then we all took our bundles and went to get the rigs. As we drove around the corner we seen the mountain it was big and pink. Soon we was outside the Park and near Ashford. Here us kids, we went to sleep and l slept until we got to Lagrande. There was an explosion there. They was blasting that same Reservoyer or Power Plant Place. The next thing we seen was old Hop val- ley and you to go up a steep hill to get out of it. About seven o'cloclc we reached Spanaway then we left the Mountain road and took a differ- ent one. We past Lakeview and seen ODI' milking the cows. About 9 o'clock we was home and was awfuly tired so we went and had some supper and then went upstairs to bed. l slept like a top and never woke up. The next morning l felt fine and we all was sunburned. One woman's face peeled off and she said she was going to take some mosquito netting along next time. THE LINCOLNIAN Forgive! F orgive! By M. R.

LWIN BARTLETT RUMMEL. alias Eificacious Battling Rum- my,,proved to his brother when at the age shown in the above pic- ture that he possessed all the capa- bilities necessary to the making of a perfect white hope. His brother suffered the disastrous experience of a black eye, while E.. B. R. grinned triumphantly, his own head of ivory consistency having felt no effect from the impact of his opponent's fist. Years healed the black eye and Elwin Bartlett grew up. And as he progressed, the deceiving, innocent and wistful look remained on his countenance, earning the new title, Eccentric Bantam Rooster, for him. At this dramatic period of his life- journey, his curls began to sprout. Many feminine admirers thronged to see them and he giggled and sput- tered in delight Cas he does later in lifej. Then this wonderful prodigy was taken on a distant journey to the great city of Puyallup to pick berries, which incited a desire in him to study botany. This earned a credit for him later in High, for our good Mr. Schartow gave him the degree of Em- inent Botanical Reformer. He turned the class Bolsheviki. His curls sprouted some more and so he had a haircut f25cJ. Now he felt himself quite a man and knew that High School needed him. There- fore, hard-headed, simple-faced, hair- on-end Cremember, the haircut was 25cJ, and with specs perched on his nose, E. B. R. flopped into Lincoln. For two years he remained in ob- scurity, but this could not last long. Eventually Miss Burgess revived the fire of youth within him and thru her exasperating efforts succeeded in placing a subway from his ear to his brain, and gradually some knowl- edge was able to pass through. Then he became the worthy adver- 44 THE LINCOLNIAN tising manager for this famed paper and made it more famous fwith his picturesj. Now love has entered into his life and as a result he is Ever- lastingly Beseeching Richards. ln the future he hopes to have an Ex- ceptionally Brilliant Romance. Then when he has acquired enough coin to buy an Elegant Brass Ring he will forthwith have the Ecclesiastical Ben- edictory Rites solemnized. Following the ceremony he aspires to a trip on the Elevated Bunktown Railway. Thence to a peaceful Electric Bunga- iow Residence he will take his Exu- berantly Beautiful Richards. Now we must ask the reader to bear in mind the fact that this is only E. B. R.'s version. Does she echo it?

Her athletic work will be con- tinued at the Chicago School of Physi- cal Education. And if she puts in her usual pep there we all know that success will be hers. HERBERT FREDERICK NEUBAUER THE LINCOLNIAN SHERED into this world one shimmering moonlight night, our friend and brother, Mr. Herbert Frederick Neubauer, gave promise, according to the observation of the stars, of becoming the world's greatest baker. Wasn't this a most wonderful future to aspire to? His parents did not realize this. ln their 'I mind's eye they saw him married to the first lady of the land, they saw him ruling over the forty-eight states, and they saw him living a life of do- mestic tranquillity, peaceful and happy in the historic White House. No knowledge that the sage, grave men of science might have given them would ever have changed their opin- ions. No human being, skilled in the art of foretelling events by the situ- ation and different aspects of the luminous, nocturnal, and heavenly bodies would have convinced them that their son would become a baker. His natural tendencies along the pastry line were shown early in the beginning of his career. lgnatz, his canine pet, barked fearfully and scratched at the Hour barrel. Our worthy friend's sister heard the noise, came to the round, wooden cask, looked within, saw, and then yanked out-Mr. Neubauer. Passing on to another incident, we find him especially joyful when mak- ing mud pies. Last, but not least, is another sign of his exceptional abil- ity. Besides being an indication of his great power, we consider this oc- currence as one showing bulldog ten- acity and determination. He always won first place in any pie-eating con- test. We feel that we have now ver- ified the statement of the horoscope to a sufficient extent to convey to our readers that the future occupation of Mr. Herbert Frederick Neubauer is that of a baker. Years rolled into the past: our friend lived on. But a crucial mo- ment came. A dreadful fever came over him: he became a hero worship- er-l beg your pardon, a heroine worshiper. On and on he went, impelled by this muse. Grim fate aided him by cutting the life thread of the most renowned and famed devotee of the heroine, placing our friend as the most powerful worshiper. He would be Vernon Castle ll. Then entered into his life a beau- tiful being of feminine loveliness, which brought him back to earth on the road to the bakery. His interest in Terpsichore lessened, faded, and died. His rapture for this beautiful being of feminine loveliness increased, and he realized that the law of happi- ness demands as its price, work. And here we find another mark of his future occupation. He always works as if he were needing dough. 46 THE LINCOLNIAN RITA BELLE BREWER Prohibition may come and Brewers may go, but Rita Belle will live on forever. At least she will live for- ever in our memories as the merry, capricious, and raven-haired maiden, the perfect student.

Romeo and 1uliet, and delighted her heart by acting the most dra- matic of its scenes, the one on the balcony. A chair served as the bal- cony, a silver platter sitting on a plate-rail was the moon, and the Per- sian cat was Romeo. And Rita was the beautiful Juliet. After the passing of sixty more months Rita was given the oppor- tunity of witnessing the performance of a melo-drama. Her attention was very keen thruout the first three acts. Then it .was attracted to a shining bald-pate in the front row of the main floor. fwe forgot to mention the fact that Rita was three stories up., At that moment the stage-lights dimmed and the villain could be seen slowly creeping across the platform. But Rita had forgotten about the vil- lain, for her eyes were fastened to the shining astrich egg in the first row. Within another second there a crack: the egg ducked, then slowly turned around. An apple had hit it from the gallery. Who threw it? WHS That night Rita knew she wanted to be a huntress. She called herself Diana and started to hunt and forth- with proved again that she was a good shot by putting a chipmunk to sleep. Now she is hunting for a man who is her equal.

For a moment the strange figure waited, her eyes flash- ing fire. Arthur Dean turned his eyes to the intruder. The next thing he realized was a flying leap toward him and a packing bunch of feathers perched on his nose. Helter-skelter. pell-mell, he ran out of the coop, out of the barnyard and into his house. We will now draw a curtain over the tragic scene of the banclaged nose. Nevertheless we have to recount the overlasting result this pathetic experi- ence has caused. lmmediately he swore that he would always hate chickens. We might add in pass- ing that he has kept his word. ABE M. OLSWANG BE MfATCl'l YOUJ OLSWANC otherwise known as Olly or Oil Can, was extremely anx- ious to have his picture put in this column, because he said it shows the wonderful business ability l have and l want everybody to think I am a wonderful financial genius, etc. This is what the prevaricating scribes would have us think, but to tell the truth the dear editor had to chase him around the block and then have one of these fights, such as you can see at a movie any day, to get it away from him, for altho he doesn't look it from his likeness, that you see before you, he is exceptionally mod- est. Abe is a local flower, or maybe thistle, for he was born a few miles up the sound at Bellingham and, ac- cording to his own statement, hasn't been out of the state: nevertheless he is a wise and ever-growing wiser young man. At the age of one he began to count the number of vehi- cles which passed his abode: at two he could multiply and divide and finally at four he decided that the little burg of Bellingham wasn't big enough to show his wonderful talents in and so begged his dad to move to our own great city. When he started to school at the age of six he startled his teacher by rapid calculation. We could go on and on relating the virtues of this wonderful man, but as we don't pretend to be anything of a young fellow knew nothing about it 48 THE LINCOLNIAN A , - scious victim of a plot between Ob V as Gardner and Polly Pollen and the lamp post. Oh had been fussing the chickens, as usual. and Polly had not Baron Munchausen we will leave the remainder to the imagination of the reader. But there is one thing that must be related. When he first entered the halls of Lincoln to grace or disgrace them, he was the uncon- been far behind him when the time came for some sort of an athletic dance or something similar. Ob was quite a fiend for the dance game and had become quite a jazzite. Of course he wanted Oil Can to go along, but bashfulness overcame him and he was afraid to ask a lady friend. What did these two plotters, or Bolshevilci, do but call a certain fair one and Ob impersonating Oil Can arranged with the girl to go to the dance. Of course the innocent and they withheld it from about a half hour before affair was to come off. was afraid the girl would was a poor sport if he did him until the fatal Oil Can think he not show up and so he rushed around and went for the girl. Of course everything turned out nicely and so little 'ioil Can suddenly became another fiend of the dance hall. We will now end with his favorite expression, Come on, let's go, Fat- heads.

At any rate, we wish there were more such fairy folk. Who could make a more delight- blue, song- thxt Ilew. ful Phoebe than Fritzie ? lt's right in her to be a heroine and she can flirt to perfection. What's puzzling me is-where, how, when she learned the art or who showed her how. My quizzes are still to be answered. But, as all good folks know, all sweet little girls are not angels by any means.

HARRY LYONS LTHOUGH this tale of the life of Harry Albert Lyons will im- press the readers the same as Hearts and Flowers impresses an audience when played before the last act of a tragedy, still it must be told. This splendid specimen of a well bal- anced youth, we regret to say, is pin- ing his little heart away. His eyes have lost their lustre, his shoes and face no longer wear a shine, his hair and head are becoming lighter, he looks downcast and haggard. What is the cause of this? you ask. Over- studyil No. Under-study? No. Love? Yesl Love has caused this great grief that weighs so heavily upon him. Why are you not faithful, Stella? But do not care, Harry, if other suitors are taking your place. Dance and drink-Postum. l have been ranting. l have been deploring Harry's present existence. l must begin over again. Harry was a true sportsman in his earlier years. His greatest skill was acquired in 50 THE LINCOLNIAN roller-skating, marble playing, and ping-pong. This early training ac- counts for his proficiency in dancing, billiards, and arm-movement penman- ship, respectively. Harry at one period of his life nearly succeeded in getting a permit to enter the Mohler Barber College. Harry was always fond of perfume- bottles. Whenever he found one, he would fill it with water, and flatten a stubborn cowlick into position. One day, however, he went farther. His cousin came to spend the day at Harry's house and they were enjoying themselves immensely until our hero discovered that cousin's curls would afford splendid practice for barber- ism. A chair, an apron, a pair of scissors, a perfume-bottle and Harry were the characters in the next scene. Following this occurred a scene be- tween Harry and his mother. Harry soon had an idea that he did not want to be a barber. ..l...1. MARGUERITE ET us gaze with 'our critical organs of sight upon the petite countenance, or rather the like- ness, of Marguerite Ann Reding, a product of Iowa, Ossian being her birthplace. What a pensive look she has as she sits so comfortable in her grandfather's chair and watches the yellow canary float around the photo- grapher's cranium. Sweet little thing, clear old ladies would say. ANN REDING Cute, girls would say. Some chicken! boys would say. However, let us delve into a more profound study. That she likes noise can be seen by the work of tonsorial art ac- complished with the aid of bowl and scissors, namely, bangs. This indi- cates fierceness of temper which, if allowed to continue, might develop into violence. Now let us notice the ribbons. One is perpendicular: the other is all awry fprobably the re- sult of the temperj. This dislike for bows in her childhood apparently still exists except that the spelling is re- vised to beaux. Last, but not least, is the best indication of her character. We see she is holding a bell. lm- mediately our minds go back to the farm house from which issued the summons that we welcomed, Manda ringing the dinner bell. lt is always said that the road to a man's heart is thru his stomach, so we see that Marguerite Ann, despite her temper and despite her dislike for beaux, and despite the ambition to become a soap-box professor for the cause of Feminine Suffrage, still has the op- portunity of winning the masculine heart by the development of her culi- nary ability and the ability of ring- ing the bell. THE L'lNCOl..NlAN Sli MIRIAM REBECCA EDEY Happy is the Man who gets me. HIS iittle bundle is the proud possessor of the name of Mi- riam Edey. Miriam has always delighted in studying, even in gram- mar school. When Miriam entered high school she entered right into the list of activities of the school organization and we all love her: but we must say Miriam has one bad fault. We all hate to confess it, but it is a failing of the whole Senior Class. lt is this: Lots of times fsometimes too often, Miriam forgets to follow out her program of the day. ' Miriam is a member and has served as president of that Fifth Period Demosthenes Club. She is a shark in advanced oral and we all love to hear her recite. We once heard that Miriam was one of the best students of an English teacher. lt came from Miss Dood herself, so we have to believe it. But, just once, near the end of our high school days, Miriam was heard to say: l haven't my story, Miss Dodd. Miss Dodd looked and thought much. Miriam was the president of the Dramatic Club of l9l9. That is why we have such good results from the Dramatic Club. We could rave on and write a book about Miriam, but a two-hundred one must have close with say- seeing this is only page book and every their chance we must ing that Miriam will go to Pullman next year to major in English. We know when she begins to teach she won't be too cross if all her stu- dents aren't in her class when they ought to be. All ,Lincoln students and teachers wish Miriam, from the bottom of their hearts, the world full of happiness. THE ANDERSON BOYS AN it be possible? Yes. These are the handsome Anderson boys, Roy and Wallace. Alike in statue were they as two peas in a pod, but as unlike in mental capacity as an aphus is like a rhinoceros. But it seems that from the time when they should first awake in this great atmosphere the femine attraction for Wallace superseded that of Roy's. Although Roy was in reality the handsomer, Wallace's curls took the cake and he thereby conquered the weaker. But even though the younger lad had his elder in that point, it was destined that Roy should he the wiser. The keen sense of intellect shown in the above portrait suggests in Roy the ideal mathematician, while in Wallace, we have the future Artist of Music. 52 THE LINCOLNIAN These two home-grown lads have been all that a proud mother could wish for. When still tiny tots, it is said, they were ever assisting about the house. Never did they quarrel although at one time Roy nearly broke Wallace's drum, but Wallace, the kind-hearted lad, laughed to see him drum in so many parts. Today we see these two fair-haired lads almost as they were in years gone by. At the young age of two weeks Wally began his musical career, which was in the form of a long drawn out bawl. At the age of six- teen months we see the awakening of the great capacity for the drum. Here he used the washtub and his own little hand for instruments. At seven he was presented with an ln- lian suit and a tin drum by his aunt in Montana, and this with him. on his rocking horse, drove the surround- ing habitation to despair. Such a noisel At his aunt's wedding he broke the orchestra's drums and led the grand march as Cupid. But for all that, today we have him as Wally, the great drummer. Altho he has many enemies in the school band, for he drowns all other noises with his drums, the school is indebted to him for this kind act. But he is not a perfect lad. He has a few weak points, such as hard collars, loud neckwear, young ladies, and getting excused to work on screens, but go- ing over and playing tennis instead. Oh, how dead Lincoln will be without this lad of frivolity roaming about its halls. Handsome Roy is the member of the Anderson family of whom it may well boast. Women phaze him notl But Pickles point. As seem to be his weak a mathematician, Roy shines. We can see that he will some day become a second Orr. He started at the age of fourteen months to count with his hands and feet, and when asked how many made a dozen he would raise his hands and two toes. At two and a half years he took first prize at a baby show and figured out how much interest the prize of Sl0.00 would bring him when he reached the age of three. When in third grade in grammar school he showed the teacher that by counting your fingers backward from ten down to live, and adding the five on the other hand, made eleven. The teacher instantly pro- moted him to the fourth grade. And so he grew in mentality, and finally came to grace the halls of Lincoln with his glorious self. l-le has still managed to keep from talking to any young lady and makes a little noise on the fiddle. His physiognomy sug- gests within him a kindness to ani- mals, and he is often seen petting little frogs in the will some day be nearby pond. He professor of math- ematics in Anderson's Technical Col- lege for Fatheads. THE LINCOLNIAN 53 ETHEL FLORENCE ROBINSON O write of such a brilliant, won- derful, pleasing, excrutiatingly de- lightful, powerful, distinguished, and notable genius as Ethel Florence Robinson is, is impossible. There- fore we will study her picture. That she does not like love stories is quickly seen. Why, what are these v silly, insignificant, preposterous, senti- mental, and entirely unintellectual compositions that have their basis in love, to Ethel? The better. But we must Ethel does not like all does. Her favorite real thing is not say that books, for she pastimes are strides into realms of physical geo- graphy, chemistry, biology, trigo- nometry, economics, Pancoast and parliamentary law. As president of a club Miss Robinson is especially capable. She can give extemporane-' ous speeches fproviding they are pre- paredj, she can carry on a conversa- tion fmostly a monologuel, and she can lecture on how to quell a Bol- shevik riot. ln short, she can talk. Some years ago our friend decided that her greatest ambition was to tickle the ivories. So she forth- with notified her mother that she wished a few checks in the future in order to offset the debt that the master of the pianoforte would in- cur. Mama agreed, so daughter was pleased. Years floated away, l beg your most humble pardon, Miss Ethel, l meant months. Soon our friend was trilling melodies, vibrating Loves Old Sweet Song, and thun- dering Out on the Deep. The piano tuner came next. Nevertheless Ethel is still striving to beat Paderewski. What l have not said I will not say. 'Tis better thus. RALPH PlNKY CONRAD E call him Pinky, but it ought to be Reddy, the boy with the red hair, red freck- les, red collar 'n everything. This little bunch of sweetness was born in Tacoma about fourteen and one- half years ago. The state was sure lucky to have one so famous to be born within its boundaries. Who would think by this picture that he was witty? But he really is, even enough to be our dear personal editor. And they say that a red-headed person is never found in an asylum. lf this rule holds true we can expect to hear great doings in the future ad. He is so 'bright' my Ma calls me 'sun. ' We feel life of this sun-colored l often heard to say: l'm safe in saying, here is a real future red-headed president. 54 THE. LINCOLNIAN I This young lad started eating when very young. He was known to go about with two loaves of bread and a piece of cheese under his arm--a second Ben Franklin--offering every pretty girl a bite. The above por- trait shows him in one of his many artistic poses. But even though this freckled-faced lad has a great appe- tite he became quite an athlete for roughneckj and his many caprices then, had Fairlas Doug-banks cheated a mile. When seven years old he won the pie eating contest at Sunday School and then for full measure went back to the eats and ate twenty- two sandwiches and two and one- half cakes. At grammar school he was sent out of the room three times a day for eating green onions and would then go down and eat every one's lunch. But this brick-headed youngster finally was allowed to come to Lincoln on the conditions that he did not eat in the lunchroom. This he merely laughed at and so his sense of humor grew until he finally be- came the great personal editor of the paper and thereby has shown his wonderful intellect. CARL HOWARD ERICKSON. ARL HOWARD ERICKSON. Ah, the name sounds familiar! Drop off the Carl and the well known name of our dear literary editor stares one in the face. who would think that such a person as he has developed to be stands behind such an innocent name or grew from such an unoffending appearing little fe- low as the one in the accompanying picture. But, ah, who knows? Strange things happen in this old world of ours. Little Carl Howard was very young when he first saw the light of the stars in our western sky fEditor's note: Only his mother was with him, but he has made up for that in the last few yearsl, for he hailed from somewhere in the great state of New York from a city called Bison, or Buffalo, or something similar. A photograph was once shown to the writer of the history of this mar- velous man which turned light upon the characteristics of the present in- dividual. Woe unto him, it con- demned him forever more. When the editor was asking for a picture to print in this worthy paper, the guilty one denied its existence: but the truth will out. So young a man the appeared about four or fivej, to be kissing one of the fair sex under an umbrella! And she so young. tool But the film contained and held the proof. Then to look at him! Who would think it? But enough of his young days, for he was des- tined to grow up into prominence and favor-'that is, among a certain set fof girlsj. THE LINCOLNIAN 55 Outside of winning prizes in essay contests, writing snappy stories for the Lincolnian and other small, sun- dry things, he gained the approval of the class sufficiently in his Junior year to be elected to the post of steering this worthy magazine thru the ruts of selecting some good stor- ies out of all the poor and uninter- esting ones handed in. Of course he made a success of this occupation and his fame grew, and now at Com- mencement time he is one of the big men in school fthat is, he thinks he isj. Before ending this eventful, or un- eventful, history, as the case may be, we wish to relate a little incident which happened in the junior year of this worthy. All the girls had turned him down for some reason or other, and he couldn't get anyone to go with him to the Junior-Senior prom, but confidentially he told a fellow classman that he intended to take a certain member of the femi- nine tribe with a name which some- what resembled Engles, or something like it. He was never seen at the prom with the aforesaid fair one. What happened between them re- mains unknown to the present day, but we have our surmiaes. But then, it is said that you can't keep a good man downn: so he soon seemed as good as ever, despite the tender romance. 0 '15 0 DOROTHY NELSON. Where did you come from, baby, dear? Out of nowhere into here? And if you don't treat me nice I'm go- ing right buck where I came from. She does look as if she were tak- ing this world on approval, doesn't she? That's just what she has done all along. When Dot likes a thing she's crazy about it, but when she doesn't she simply hates it. Dorothy has been somewhat quiet around school this year for some reason or other: we can't say why. But we are told she is a regular girl -loves to dance and play tennis and 56 THE LINCOLNIAN heaps of other out-door sports all girls love. Dot is a good typist-very speedy. As to the future, Dorothy doesn't say much, but some long time ago we noticed a Diamond on her left hand. So Dot's future seemes to have been planned for her by some lucky chap whom we have had the misfortune not to have 'become ac- quainted with. Here's to your success, Dot, and heaps of congratulations as to your prosperous looking future. 99549 The Grasp of the Woods IGI-iT-BlRD'S singin' near the creek With a voice that's loud an' clearg The night-breeze brushes 'gainst my cheek, An' the lappin' of the river is pleasant to my ear.

Editorial TEMPUS FUGIT ANY of our readers may be unagreeably surprised to find that we have so far deviated from time-worn, traditional path as to fail to head our editorial columns with a heavy typed Commencement or a deeply profound-looking A Farewell Lemonln We have never especially loved tradition. ln a sense what is true of one day may hold good for all time, but then tra- dition becomes dictatorial and its demand of obeisance seems too much like harnessing progress, like dressing the man of today in the rusty, worn-out armor of past ages. But we may run out of ideas and find it necessary to close this epistle, so bravely begun, in some such manner, so we must lie on. As we contemplate the end which is now so near there arises in us a natural wish to let the mind travel back over by-gone days and revisit again a few of the memories that lie along the way. Back in the heart of every person who has ever gone thru high school there is a warm spot which belongs to his tender recollection of Freshman life. The Freshman, in all his innocence, his youthful high-spiritedness, his ignorance, shall we say, is really a source of happiness to himself. He comes fresh from his position in the lower grades to work and associate, to live and have his being among per- sons who seem to him almost devinely mighty. He looks on the upper-classmen and wonders if he shall ever attain such a masterful personage, such great knowledge and such a manly physique as they possess! l-le feels his smallness among these super-men, but still, as we think back, there is something joyous in his exclusive freedom and his care-free happiness that ever makes the memories of this period full of sweetness. By the time the Sophomore year is reached the feeling of being an old-timer is usually prevalent. The Sophomore, as his name suggests, fully realizes the position of distinction to which he has achieved and is well aware of his superiority in schoolly knowledge over the mere Freshman. At this period the newness of the system has worn off and to those who go to school merely as an experience or a lark the Sopho- more year is usually more uninteresting than the others. ln thinking back this period seems to have made the least impression of any of the four vivid recollections. Next in order come Junior days. lt seems that every one loves Juniors. They hold an enviable position, with many of the privileges 62 THE LINCOLNIAN and advantages of the Seniors, and opportunities to expand, they are encumbered with scarcely any of the responsibilities which go with the Senior year. The Junior has had some experience and has reached an age where he feels that he should begin to get into the swim and do things. From this naturally sprang the far-famed Junior Prom. Few high-school classes have any real organization until the junior year, but the new realization of coming power never fails to bring a certain self-consciousness of their ability and that they are but a step from the positions of their seniority. lndeed the Freshman is known for his innocence, the Sophomore for his wisdom, so is the Junion famed for his ambition or his pep. It is a good characteristic and if used with judgment and followed with hard work may accomplish much. So we arrive in our reflection, back to ourselves, the Seniors, and realize again the nearness of the end. Every one, we believe, should have some feeling of responsibility at the beginning of the Senior year. Not the foolish false pride which is often noticed, but he should real- ize that the Seniors are the models after which the under-class men cut their cloth and form their ideals and that his example will have its effect, for good or evil, on those who are younger than himself. The Seniors have naturally more freedom, more privileges and op- portunities to think and act after their own ideas than any one else. They are older and should be more capable of more thought, and have a closer, more personal relationship with the faculty than was ever before possible. The purpose of this is to give the Seniors a chance for some self-development that they may stir their resources and have some of the individuality of men and women, for they are fast approaching that position. The attitude often taken is The Seniors can get away with anything. This, however, is a sadly mistaken viewpoint and if practiced largely would soon result in the loss of these very advantages and privileges that are of such prime importance in the Senior year. Most students do very little real thinking until the fourth year. Many do very little then, but the simple fact that the public school period is about to pass into their lives' history has a steadying effect on many thoughtless heads. The fact grows very plain as the end draws near that many have been in school merely because their par- ents demanded it, or because they considered school just the proper excuse for a four-years' loaf. Any student who is honest enough to stop and think it over will realize that it is possible to go thru high school and gain a surprisingly small amount of knowledge. The attitude of many of us high-school students is, that it really THE LINCOLNIAN 63 doesn't matter much whether we study any here, just have a good time for a little while and then just watch us in Students do not seem to realize that they are faster, right now, than they ever shall again and college next year! forming character that if, during the past four years they have been in the habit of letting pleasure come before plain duty and following the course of least resistance, this is very apt to be a mrakecl characteristic in later life. The student who lets work slip over until tomorrow or next year is very likely to continue this policy when that time arrives, but he who takes a stand and resolves to get a certain point if it takes all night or all year will not only succeed during the present, but will be building a strong habit and laying the foundation of a strong character. l-le who loafs until the habit of procrastination is formed, is always behind in everything, even tho in after life he may see his fault and try to conquer it: but the conscientious worker who has made his natural tendencies bow before his will, is ever ahead even tho he may choose to stop and rest, for he has the stock of strength and spoils of all former victories as momentum to carry him thru. The time to act may have been yesterday, but that's too late. It is not tomorrow, for tomorrow will be full of other duties. It is nowl Act nowl Tempus fugitl 0 FIC 0 MANY THANKS. Before starting out on any attempt able. To these business men we are at a Flowery tribute of thanks, we wish to impress one fact upon our gentle readers. What we have to say here is by no means a mere form or a following out of customs: these few brief lines spring from the heart and not from the head, for if we did not feel these thanks, they would be omitted. First of all, we wish to thank most heartily the advertisers who have made it possible for the Lincolnian to exist. While we are sure that they have been repaid many times over for their small investment in our en- terprise, without their promptness and general good feeling toward us the burdens of the closing fiscal year would have been well nigh unbear- sure the whole school feels indebted and joins with us in sending them many thanks. Next in line of our constituency who deserve thanks for their patience come the subscribers, whom it has been our purpose to please. They have reaped the benefits or evils of our attempts and have been the judges of our failure or success. Pri- marily, in the publication of a period- ical of any kind, the subscribers are considered, and as they are the source of our efforts we naturally thank them for their support. While the number of subscribers could have been increased considerably, yet each individual subscriber has done his duty, and for that we thank him. 64 THE LINCOLNIAN To those who have contributed to the paper is due the credit for our literary success, and we cannot say too much in their praise. They have shown the interest which is necessary to the success of any enterprise. Those contributors whose material was not used are also warmly thank- ed here, for they have given us the opportunity for choice in material and have helped to uphold the standard of publication. The Staff of Nineteen-Twenty has also been of great assistance, for while the issue published by them was for the purpose of receiving training under the present staff, they have helped to publish other issues. Everett Stiles, a Junior, has done highly commendable work in the ad- vertising department, being the man- ager's chief assistant. If the Junior Class produces many workers like Everett, we foresee a brilliant record for it next year. so to the Juniors also we wish to send a salutation. There are a number of committees that have put in a great deal of time and energy in the making of a good Commencement issue. Dorothy Nel- son, Roy Anderson, and Roy Ham- merlin have shown fine spirit on the Class Pictures Committee, while Ralph Conrad, Adah Harkness. Nancy Hed- burg, Miriam Edey, and Arthur Po- chert have handled a big job, that of the personal write ups. Each has shown eagerness to do all possible for the benefit of the common end, and to them the Staff extends again Many thanks. And now we wish to thank the faculty advisers of the Staff, Mr. Sper- lin, the editorial adviser, and Mr. Ed- wards, head of the Business depart- ment. who have been very helpful and interested workers with us. Their positions were to act as overseers to the management, but they have in all cases offered helpful suggestions and finally left us to exercise our own judgment. Mr. Sperlin, with his kindly sug- gestions, and Mr. Edwards, with his ever ready joke, we thank many times. The services of Miss Cowell of the Art Department, and of Mrs. Pugh of the Stenographic Depart- ment, have certainly, been appreci- ated also. Miss Gowell has directed the art work and has given much good advice and criticism. Mrs. Pugh and her students have saved the Staff many weary hours of pecking a typewriter. So to these and to all those whom we have omitted we will say again, Many Thanks. Q it Q THE HOPE OF THE WORLD During the past few years the students of Lincoln High School have heard a number of good speakers in assemblies. Many of these, we believe, have produced a lasting effect for good. lt is true that many have gone over something like the same grounds, that of inspiring the stu- dents to higher things, but it is hard to deliver a really effective talk to such an audience without having this the predominant feature. lt is not uncommon, however, that in the de- sire to arouse interest the speaker falls into the easy sin of appealing to our egotism. He pounds the table and in an awing voice pronounces that he is now addressing the hope of the future worldg the business men, the senators, the presidents, if you please, of proceeds, the next generation. He telling us of the great beauty of our school and the excel- lencies of our opportunities, predict- ing brilliant careers for us within a short time. He tells of the meagre- ness of such fineries which was char- acteristic of the lives of any of our THE LINCOLNIAN 65 great thinkers and actors, both past and present, and tells us how we shall talk stu- probably outshine them. Such usually has an effect upon the dent. He looks himself over in a new light: big men are calling the world's salvation, the future ruler of the nation, and he immediately looks around for the Secretary of State. He then adjusts his thumbs in his vest pocket in a suitable manner and strikes the pose nearest to some favor- able Premier whose picture has ap- peared in the latest magazines. An overdose of highly complment- ary gush on the greatness of students at the age when they are usually fairly well impressed with their own greatness has an effect similar to a drug placing them in a fine country. viewed through roseate glasses where everyone is wise and rich and wonder- ful. While everyone realizes the im- portance of proper inspiration. too much flowery language tends to shine off the surface merely and has no lasting effect, for growth requires strenuous exercise of real thought and not just a soft, high-sounding phrasing of great ideals. ln fact, most men who have done great deeds have not acquired their powers by just spinning off idealism, but by hard, consistent plodding. Edison once said that genius was one per cent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration. True idealism tempered with though and consistency is one of man's noblest assets, but gushing rhetoric from one who does not know what he is talking about or doesn't practice his theories is truly ridiculous. This surface polish is what has often made a high school student a joke to practical thinkers. Another point where the student has misunderstood our speakers is in thinking that the greatness of our op- portunities relieve us of the necessity of effort along lines of school work. A beautiful school and fine equip- ment should certainly promote edu- cation, but only insofar as they fur- ther deep thought and study: they cannot take its place. We once heard a high school teacher talking to students on the subject of mountains. This person mentioned that mountains made us feel bigger. We have nmought this over somewhat but somehow cannot come to these sentiments as a con- clusion. We stand on a brilliantly moonlight night, on the ice-fields of a great mountain. The glistening snow reflects the yellow moonlight in a radiant splendor far more grand than mere day, but in all the sub- duced loveliness of night. We look upon this great mass of bristling crags and yawning valleys, finally culminating in the great peak above, and we think the vastness is awful, and slowly we remember the one and one-half billion of insects called men who rush and struggle about the earth: of the countless multitude that has, since the beginning of time, marched on, each one playing his small part and moving on to the un- opening grave: of the untold millions of unborn generations, and we are lost. Our eyes roam upward until they rest upon the studded gallery of the heavens where world whirls by world, solar system by solar system. where our own small earth has no position and your promising hope of the world dwindles in size to the mi- croscopic. There is nothing more effective in removing the colossal egotism of a man than nature, and in the mount- ains nature is at her best. A little solitude sitting around a camp-fire staring silently into its embers, and what thoughts crowd fast into the noise-fagged brain of urbanitel For one who wishes purest reflection, this 66 THE LINCOLNIAN is the prescription and he will find much food for thought. It is not that we would destroy self- confidence: while egotism is a very disgusting fault, under-valuation is a most dangerous one. We are in- deed the hope of the world, but this is a gift as purely as life, and an in- heritance, achieved by no effort on our part, is no grounds for vanity. The world's hope in us may prove a very meagre one, feeble and wretched, or it may be glorious and full of promise for the future accord- ing only to our response. Thus not basking too freely in the too warm sun of our own admiration or being too greatly impressed with what we are, but fully realizing what by consistent effort we may be, let us resolve to have a new birth of freedom from ourselves and from all things, that the world's hope in us may not be in vain. 0120 THE Before we pass out and leave the editorial work to the future, we wish to make a few remarks in farewell. While the trials of the past year have been numerous and weighty and at times we were sore beset nearly to the point of tearing our hair in de- spair, still the work of carrying on the Lincolnian has not been without its interests and pleasures. As a means of bringing plain facts to our readers before they make too strict a criticism of the success of the Staff of Nineteen Hundred Nineteen, we present the following: The managers for the present year have labored under a number of de- pressing difliculties. Foremost among them was the Great War which has just closed. The war has had several disastrous effects, as most people know. The Class of Nineteen is really the War Class, for while there have possibly been more members of some of the other classes in the. ser- vice, they have been affected as in- dividuals and not as a class. Shortly before school opened last fall the Selective made to of age. centage Draft measure had just been include those from IB years which affected a large per- of the boys in the Senior Class. Affairs were unsettled: some pupils had already entered the ser- vice, and many thinking that they LAST. would soon be called failed to sta rt in the fall 3 a large number, shortly after entering, left for the Students' Army Training Corps, or went to work. Big events were happening and the great exodus of students from the upper classes had a highly disin- tegrating effect on the remnants of school spirit. This is hardly a fault, for it is certainly encouraging when the students show that they are in- terested in a wider sphere than the affairs of one high school. Those who remained were busied with the different financial enterprises, such as the Bond drives, the Red Cross work, etc., while at a conservative estimate fifty per cent. of the student body were drawing salaries for work done after school hours. With a few such facts as these before us, it is easily seen that few had much time for school activities. Yet that is far from all. The inflated prices due to the war had a depressing effect upon the business departments. The phenome- nal advance in cost of paper, coupled with the scarcity of workmen, brought the price of the publication bound- ing upwards nearly three hundred per cent., comparative value to that of previous years. Of our two means of revenue, subscriptions and adver- tising, the price of subscription re- mained the same, and we made only THE LINCOLNIAN 67 a twenty-five per cent. raise in ad- vertising rates. The natural result was a heavy cut on the quantity and an equally heavy reduction of the stock of the magazine. Following upon these disadvantages came a five weeks' forced influenza vacation in the middle of a school term, the end of the war, and a gen- eral strike-all effect upon the having a disastrous market, making bus- iness uncertain, which, in turn, was felt in our general coffers. The Class of Nineteen-Eighteen gave us a liaming salute in their last issue, setting forth the benefits that we would inherit from them, and fin- ished by leaving us one hundred and twenty-five dollars in debt. We re- alize all that they have done for the school, but also have a sneaking sus- picion that if we had many such pre- decessors our continued existence would, indeed, be miraculous. This is not a complaint, a hard-luck story or an apology: we merely hope that in judging the work of the Class of Nineteen the reader will have access to facts and make his conclusion ac- cordingly. , Our publications have not been su- perfiuously larger and in some cases the material might have been improv- ed upon, but we have made an hon- est effort and are willing to accept matters as they stand. In the day of the greatest financial distress of half a century, with school spirit waning and the students interested in bigger problems, we have stood by our guns, we have fought the good fight, we have kept the faith, and present our products proudly. We have guided the ship through a day of storm and we hope our successors will make the best of their future advantages. We cry: To you we throw the torch, Be yours to hold it high. You have our good wishes and our best hopes. Carry Oni And we will shout to you our last farewell. The Principal's Page O this is Commencement time: this is your Commencement num- ber. You have sent out your Commencement Announcements, Commencement Banquet, Commencement dresses, Commence- ment addresses, Commencement presents-all these and more pro- claim the great event in the lives of your Seniors of Lincoln High School. We offer you our compliments and congratulations. What is Commencement? Surely not the end of all things. Surely not the end of your education-whether you go on to college or not. Education is not an end any way. It is a means, not an end. Commencement is not the end, but the beginning of life in its broader outlook. Let your education go on. ln college if you can, out of college if you must, but continue your education. Look far ahead for the end. I listened to a long sermon, in a big church, in a great city, and out of it culled one phrase that stuck, A far look, for tired eyes. A far look, take it. It is good for tired eyes, for over-wrought nerves, for weary bodies and brains, for discouraged souls. Take the far look. At the end of it is hope, ambition, fair attainment, satisfaction. Take your eyes off the book. You have had your weary eyes glued to the book too long. Take a far look. The book is not the end, though you may have been lead to think so. Take a far look, beyond the book, beyond the author, beyond the facts of his- tory or the facts of science the book may have contained. Rest your eyes on the far-off horizon of thought, and fact, and fancy, and achievement. Take your eyes off yourself-yourself as you are now. Take a far look. See yourself as you will be, as you hope to be. Dr. David Starr Jordan has well expressed what I would say to you in these words, So live that your afterself-the man you ought to be -may in his time be possible and actual. Far away in the twenties, the thirties, the forties of the Twentieth Century, he is waiting his turn. His body, his brain, his soul are in your boyish hands. He can not help himself. What will you leave for him? Will it be a brain unspoiled by lust or dissipation, a mind trained to think and act, a nervous system true as a dial in its response to the truth about you? Will you, boy of the Twentieth Century, let him come as a man among men in his time, or will you throw away his inheritance before he has had the chance to touch it? Will you let him come, taking your place, gaining through your experience, hallowed through your joys, building on them his own, or will you fling his hope away, decreeing, wantonlike, that the man you might have been shall never be? So this is Commencement. Let it be the commencement of all great and good things in your great and good future. Take the far look. The near look is narrowing, stultifying. The far look is full of hope, and courage, and achievement. Take it. -W. W. PARKER. The Vice - Principal's Message TAKE YOUR MEASURE E measure the force of gravity by the pound, or kilogram: space by the cubic foot or cubic meterg length or distance by the foot or meterg value by the dollar, time by the liour, etc. There are many quantities, however, to the measurement of which we must apply standards that are not so easy to set down in Arabics. Some of these we measure roughly by comparisons, improvising standards for the occasion-beauty, for instance, or patriotism or kindness. T But what of ourselves? Do we halt now and then in our busy lives to take our own measure? We ought to. How can we? Well, not by a common standard, to be sure, as we measure weight and length, but after all by very real standards. We are all growing. We are growing like some one-into a person different from what we now are. We plan to grow but, whether we plan to or not, we grow anyhow, though without the planning it might be considered a negative growth. We grow toward something that we are conscious of-something we have in mind that is better than we are now but which, after a time, we hope to equal, to realize. This gives us our standard of measure and we measure ourselves by comparison, repeated comparison, with that thing in our con- sciousness. We call it our ideal. Our self-measurements are not re- corded in any particular kind of units. We record merely that we are approaching that ideal, filling up the measure, as it were, or that we now are. We plan to grow, but whether we plan to or not, we doing one or the other all the while. Your ideal may not be per- fectly delineated but you have it, and the more consciously you strive for its realization the more perfectly it will be delineated-just as the patient work of the sculptor brings the statue out of the shape- less block of marble. Perhaps the following questions will help you to determine whether you are measuring up to your ideal or falling away. Try them. Do you drift or do you drive? Do you follow or do you lead? Do you help or do you hinder? Do you decide or do you wabble? Do you stand four square or do you shift? Do you make excuses or go over the top? Do you deliver the message to Garcia or do you let George do it? Do you DO? Let me repeat, try them on yourself. How do you measure up? -ELLIS I-l. ROGERS. 0116155 Bastian Class History HISTORY OF THE CLASS NINETEEN HUNDRED AND NINETEEN HE Class of Nineteen Hundred and Nineteen entered the halls of Lincoln High in the fall of l9l5, with the promise of a splendid future before them and with the ambition to upset the world. The Freshman days were spent in the usual innocent activities in which all first-year students indulge. Certain individuais longed to become popular, others wished for distinction in the study line, while the greater number passed through in the usual way. The class was not particularly successful in athletics nor entirely without merit, but soon made itself known as a factor in the school life of Lincoln High and a large factor, too. Soon the majority of the class with the exception of a few way- ward, disappointed, or unambitious individuals passed into the ranks of the Sophomores and began to look back at their less fortunate fellows who were entering as Freshmen, for like all Sophomores they immediately began to feel their importance. Several of the members of the class made different teams, others were prominent in theatri- cals and operas, while all the school activities felt the new life infused in them by the ambitious and lively Nineteeners. Things had been happening in the world, the unrest caused by the great war gradually crept into the school. Those who were affected by it felt a longing to get out into the world, earn bigger wages in the shipyards, join the army and go to France, and all in all the roster of the class dwindled and dwindled until only a part of the former great class of l9I9 was left and the greater part of these were of the fairer sex. The Junior year was still a strong part in the class history and more of the students of the l9l9 class became important in the school life. The state debate team was mostly a junior aggregation, the football squad had its quota, other athletics were only supported by the juniors who were just beginning to realize the material inside of themselves and were stretching, as it were, and basking in the sun of popularity. The next season, the Senior year of the class of l9l9, saw America in the throes of the great World War. Prices soared, wages went up with them, the interest of the community was focused on the great struggle instead of the school as formerly, and so the class of l9l9 dwindled and shrunk to a comparatively small size but yet upheld its traditions and the honor of the school. The year THE LINCOLNIAN 73 l9I8 was the first to see the separation of the two high schools in publishing the monthly magazine and so the Lincolnian became a feature of the life of Lincoln High. lts first year was entirely suc- cessful and the school found it no hard matter to carry the full weight of the undertaking. Then the class of l9l9 stepped into the shafts, but conditions had changed. The cost of publishing a paper had risen about two hundred per cent and it became doubtful whether one could be put out at all. But the difficulties were shoulclered and altho the present publication has not come up to what it would be in ordinary times on account of the great cost, the class of 1919 is far frim being ashamed of it, for altho not as large, it has fulfilled the purposes of a school publication. The Senior year also marked an epoch in athletics, for almost everything fell to the class. It took the highest place in the awards for the lnterclass Competition Committee, due to the fact that almost all the best athletes were in the 37 or 38 men in the Senior class besides those who ran the Lincolnian. With the help of the Senior advisers and mostly thru the efforts of Mr. Putnam, the lnterclass Competition Committee was organized. This will be, without a doubt, a big influence on the school in the future. So we of the class of l9l9, altho we are the War Class of the High School, publish this Commencement lssue and say that we have clone our best in all activities and although we will probably be soon forgotten, we hope that a bigger and better Lincoln High has been the result of our endeavors.

M -an NINETEENERS The Class Prophecy of 1919 OTHING has appeared to me as being more difficult than writ- ing a class prophecy. In vain have I racked my brain for a new plot different from all the rest. I have perused many ancient books on magic, philosophy, and prophecy in pursuit of an inspiration, but it is all of no avail. So at last in disgust and despair I cast all books aside. What shall be done? The prophecy must be written. I have heard of people having visions by taking opi- um. lf I should take it, it would be just my luck not to have the vision l desired: but then, what else could be clone? i I set out to obtain some opium, when new difficulties arose. Where could l get the opium? Laws were very strict against its being sold. All the drug stores refused to sell it without a prescription from some doctor. I went to a doctor friend to obtain the desired prescription by telling him that I had not slept for over a week and desired some strong sleep- ing powders that contained an abun- dance of opium. I-le seemed to know that l was lying and declared my worried and haggard look was due more to over-study and excessive worry. ln vain I pleaded and begged for opium, but the only remedy he could offer was a month's rest. Restl That was impossible, so as a last resort I decided to go to Port- land and see if I could obtain some from the Chinese that dwelt there. so intent was I upon obtaining the desired opium that I paid little atten- tion to what was going on around me as I wandered to the depot. Midway across Eleventh and Broad- way I heard a shout, a scream, saw a Ford come dashing wildly down upon me-and then I went sailing thru the air. On and on I sailed. I was won- dering when I should land. Had I gone so high that it took all this time to return? But something was wrong. My body seemed suddenly very light. Could it be possible that the impact had sent me so high in the air that I was out of the earth's influence to ever draw me back? Fully eighty years have I wan- dered-a ghost-thru many strange and foreign lands, vainly seeking dear old Tacoma and my friends. Where I am can only be answered by how I came, struck as I was destined to be, not by an auto: but by a measly Ford I was sent into infinity. I-low high I know not, but the' region was strewn with immense stars. Or were those imaginary stars? It seemed only a short time, but many years have passed. I am on earth again -'have been for some time. So greatly have things changed that I wandered for many a day in Tacoma and would probably have been wandering yet in my pursuit of some old friend who could tell me of the past had it not been for my ac- cidentally coming upon an old, dilap- idated sign swinging loosely in the wind in one of the most defected regions of Tacoma and bearing the names of Malone, Rummel and Ols- wang, Peanut Brokers. Malone, Rummel, and Olswangl That sounds familiar. Ah, yes: I remember now. Malone ran the high school paper and upheld women's rights. Rummel chased ads and bought l5c pies for the girls. Ols- wang was financier and general chore boy for all the women, old and young. I was greatly elated at find- ing this and entered the tumbled- THE. LINCOLNIAN l09 down shack over which the sign hung without further assistance. Behind a battered stove sat an old, gray-haired man, shriveled and bent with age. His long, snowy white beard nearly touched the Iioor as he leaned forward with both shaking hands resting on the handle of his cane. Who was it-Malone, Rummel or Olswang? I could not talk, nor could I be seen as I gazed curiously upon so old a man. My qUe8li0h WHS soon answered. as a man of middle age entered and put his hand upon the old man's shoulder, saying, Grandfather Olswang, I do wish you would give up your idea of staying here till death takes you away, just because both your partners have died here. Come and live with me. There is plenty of room now that Abe has graduated from Lincoln High with the class of 20l9 and is going to col- lege. Grandpa Olswang raised his aged head and replied, 'Tis useless, 'tis useless, grandson. Fully seventy-five years have I been here, and here shall I stay until my death. My part- ners have gone long ago, as well as all my friends of old. My stand and the posterity of my friends are all I have to keep alive my memory of them. Ah, how things have changedl Sit here beside me, grandson, and let me tell you of myself and a few of the friends with whom I graduated in the good old days of I9l9. After my graduation from Lincoln I went to Alaska to make my for- tune selling straw hats, but it did not pay, as I found out after two years of hard bluffing. So when one day Ralph Pollen, Chas. Preppernan, Ob Gardner and John Mund came along and asked me to accompany them on an expedition to the North Pole, I consented, glad to get away. We set out in February with our guide! and dog teams, loading our sleds with as much provision as they were able to carry. Late in August, having been delayed by the thaw, we arrived at an Eskimo village some- where in the Arctic circle. There Ralph got sick on fish, but was nursed back to life by an Eskimo belle. To show his gratitude, Ralph married her and refused to continue any fur- ther on the expedition. We decided to go on, however, without him, but before we could get started John was stabbed in the back by our guide. who had quarreled violently with him the day before over money matters. That night, after burying John, Charles left in pursuit of the fleeing guide, unknown to us, and was never more heard of. After six months of waiting, Ob and I again set out. But luck was against us. Ob's team and sled were lost when they broke thru some rotten ice while crossing a riv- er. We decided to turn back and arrived. after many delays in villages, at Juneau, july, l930. I had had enough, so, leaving Ob there to find comfort in driving a lumber wagon, I came back to the States. On the way down on the boat I was greatly surprised to find Flor- ence Baker firing boiler and Marjorie Connor, third assistant cook. They both had escaped matrimony thus far. I learned thru them that Ethel Dow was married and lived on a chicken ranch on the Spanaway line. Cene- vieve Reap was selling tickets at the Shell theater and julia and Pearl Whitmore were on the Pantages cir- suit, staging Whitmore Sisters, the Acrobatsf' On arriving at the Municipal dock I met Hilmer Holgerson, checking baggage. He told me that Sam Mont- gomery and Dick Tofte had just left on a fishing expedition as fish clean- ers. - On buying a paper at a small lI0 THE LINCOLNIAN fruitstand on my- way up -town. I was glad to recognize Ralph Conrad as storekeeper. He told me he -had hitched to. Gertrude Piper and was doing very well with his stand. On inquiry I found out that Rita Brewer was employed in a barber shop on the tenth floor of the National Realty building. As I needed a shave, I went there. She welcomed me with open arms, and was so glad to see me that in bombarding me with ques- tions about my welfare she cut me several times before completing the shave. She was giving a party that evening and desired my presence without fail. ln order to escape, l promised, and departed with a some- what marred complexion. Such is life when women will assume men's positions. I was reminded that I had forgot- ten my dinner, so I proceeded down the street in pursuit of a restaurant when I was seized by a husky police- man as a suspicious character. As l was about to buy my freedom with a five dollar bill I was astounded to find it was Adah Harkness. What the 1 is the world com- ing to, anyway? I blurted out be- fore I made known my discovery. 'lim Abe, Adah: don't you know me, your old-time friend?' She blushed beautifully for a cop and begged my pardon, but declared l looked like a crook with those scars on my face. l told her where I had been and she laughed. To my inquiry she said she had been married twice, but her husbands died both times, and as she had to make a living she took what she could get. Poor guys. I thought this was a good oppor- tunity to find out about some of the rest of the gang, so popped the ques- tion. She seemed glad to tell me all she knew, as if to make up for what she had done. Rose Mattoon and Elida Wolner run a small restaurant on Sixth avenue. Ted Brown sets type for the Tacoma Times.. George Bergstrom works for the Cas com- pany. Carol Beach teaches school out at Midland. You'll find Clifford Fox and his wife, Elsa Arnold, running a confec- tionery store on Seventeenth and Broadway. Marguerite Reding and Dorothy Day both are wives of prom- inent business men of Steilacoom. lrene Setzer has just been appointed president of the Women's Suffrage League. Our conversation was suddenly in- terrupted when Adah was called to assist an old man across the street. and as my hungry feeling had not abated during our short conversation I again proceeded down the avenue. only to come in contact with a fa- miliar personage talking to a peculiar shaped blind man turning a hand organ. Ah! She recognizes me, comes toward me with extended hand and a countenance wreathed in a lusky smile: How are you, Abe? l'm so glad to see you. I had to admit I had forgotten her name, but she relieved the situ- ation by telling me she was still the same old Myrtle Carceau, old maid and seamstress. The blind man she said is none other than Harry Lyons. He had become blind and somewhat crippled when he dropped a can of trinitrotoluene in his chemistry lab- oratory. lt seems that his arms and legs when blown off were found a short distance from the ruins. Harry and his dismembered limbs were ush- ered to the hospital and Arthur D. Pochert, who had become . a horse- doctor, having inherited it. from his family tree, was called.

Mrs. Preston rejoices in having old pupils help her maintain the school after her ideals. fMrs. Preston wasn't present., Mattie Manchester and Gertrude Malmstrom were going to leave for Spokane in a week or so in hopes of finding positions as bricklayers. They said they were well acquainted with bricks. Ordia Parks confessed being married, but said it didn't interfere with her postofhce work.

Having graduated from Lincoln, l surely was capable of a high position. So l applied for a job at the Scandinavian Bank. They said they had a president, but were badly in need of a janitor. But my ambi- tion was a little higher than that, so I proceeded on, willing to do any- thing or nothing for a little funds. At Ninth and Tacoma avenue l met Howard Ericson driving a junk wagon. When l told him l was look- ing for a job he told me to hop into his wagon and he would take me down to Old Town, where he knew of a good paying proposition. The job proved to be a peanut stand which the owner, Dot Nelson, was anxious to sell, as she wanted to go to Everett and enter the blacksmith business with Martha Roma Schmid. l took paid on installments. Cekada and the stand and lt was a cold and windy day in january when Walter Malone came in half naked in his which foretold hardships. He was scanty attire the same old radical and women's rightser as in nineteen. He told the story of his life since graduation, as follows: I went back to Idaho and worked on a section gang. Was doing well until one day l ran across Bartlett Rummel, who had been kicked off a freight train while beating his way to Washington. He induced me against my will to roam with him. We started on the next freight train, but didn't get far before the brakeman, Adaline Noblett, not know- ing us, which was a good thing, l'll say, kicked us into a river which we unluckily were crossing at that mo- ment. It was hard pulling in the swift current, but we managed to make the shore about ten miles be- low the bridge. After drying our clothes we pro- ceeded to the nearest farmhouse, which proved to be fifteen miles away, to get our supper. l was be- ginning to hate life, but Bart said that was because of the bad begin- ning. 1 At the farm, known as Sherwood, we were assailed by a dog that de- parted with part of the seat of my trousers before l made the nearest tree. Bart, being accustomed to such things, reached safety ahead of me. We sat in the tree with the dog be- low until the farmer, our noble friend Mr. Herbert Neubauer, came and call- ed the dog off. Herbert gave us a warm welcome and a first class feed, which his little wife prepared while the little Neu- bauers sat around curiously survey- ing us. Employed on Herb's farm were Marion Smith, Elva Kirlcham, and Elsie Roberts, as milkmaids and general farm hands. He had plenty of work we could do, but Bart said we had promised to work for Hazel Sines, who ran a cheese factory about Fifty miles away. That was new to me, but Bart was the leader. Herb said if we didn't like the cheese fac- tory we could go to Ruth Moos or Hazel Frost and they would be glad to employ us in the lumber camp they ran, about twenty miles from Tanwax, Washington. Two days later we started for the cheese factory, only we didn't get very far before Bart changed his mind and decided we would journey THE LINCOLNIAN IIB back to Tacoma. Tacoma was nearly three hundred miles away, but we started anyway. We struck an l. W. W. camp near a large forest some twenty-five miles from Boise.

W A As l was getting rather liiriesoline, being in business alone, l decided to take Bart and Walt in partnership. Their capital only amounted to S5.l7. but that didn't make much difference to me. as l had bought the stand for less than that. We built the place up and made a regular fruit stand in a short time. -- After about two ye8rs.we all got married, one right after other. which was very foolish, l think, as we didn't get a chance to profit by the other's mistake. Walt was strong on woman suffrage, as of old, but he got sick of it after Freida Richmond made him carry the banner at all the suffrage parades and do the washing and general housework while she at- tended meeting. He says Art was right when he said home is the place for the women: Art's wife wasn't lis- tening. He said this because he doesn't dare go home. During the next fifty years in our successful business we saw or heard of a number of our friends. Ed Anderson ran a livery stable at Port Townsend and said he found great pleasure in his horses. john Ockfen devoted his time to raising pigs at McKenna. William Farley said there was nothing like farming in general. Ethel Robinson was mar- ried and helped her husband run a dog pound somewhere in Oregon. lt was rumored that Antoinette Schindler and Mildred Petey had mar- ried twin brothers who operated a coffee millir ,They had a hard time telling them apart. One would al- ways accuse the other of flirting with her husband. Effie Nelson was gov- ernness in Mrs. Preston's household and said it wasn't half bad. Helen Deidrich produced a reducing com- pound which she sold at enormous profit. lt was a well known fact that Beatrice Clark was a genius at sweep- ing chimneys, altho she didn't care a great deal about it after her mar- riage. Tillie Witenberg had not yielded to Cupid. She says she got more pleasure out of loading car whee-ls at the South Tacoma shops. Ed Ben- son. having lost his distillery thru discovery. set to raising cabbage for making sauerkraut. Agnes Versland called trains at the depot. Ruth Smith was snake charmer in Freder- ick .Allen's Great Traveling Menager- ie. Fred said he had some good ma- terial to pick from among his gradu- ate friends for his menagerie, such as Sophia Pruness Pearl Shanes and Lola Sater as nimble toe dancers, Emil Cekada and Nevil Crippen made first class strong men and clowns. Aaron Elyn could not be distinguish- ed from the original Goolash-Coolash wild and hairy bushwhacker. Helen Sherrill gave accordion les- sons when her household duties al- lowed. Helen Ramsay slaughtered cows at the packing house. She says it's all in a lifetime. Mae Potter was .a lumberjack in Northern Can- ada.

As a matter of fact, we were only a drop in the bucket to the many that sought her. She refused the Prince of Norway twice, the Prince of Sweden seven times, and the Grand Duke of Bul- garia nine times, besides many oth- ers. ln the end she married a prom- inent shoemaker in Omaha. We made a second choice before long, however. My wife became sick, which forc- ed me to take a trip to California. As the climate was very pleasant, she improved very rapidly: so rapidly, in fact, that we were soon able to ride about and see part of the country. At the beach we met Nancy Hed- berg, who was lifeguard there. She eral times. It seems her husbands were men whose lives she had saved. She didn't happen to be around when then went swimming after they were married. At the Hot Springs we met Marie Loga, who was spending her vacation there S e said she was teaching Mexico. Faith Glass was also there, as her husband, a dime novel writer, had overworked on his latest produc- tion, 'Bloody Bill, the Man Killer.' From the Hot Springs we hired a Hivver and proceeded to Sacra- mento Valley. A large olive grove attracted our attention, so we stopped for a short while. The farm proved to belong to Helen Dryden, or rather her husband. She was greatly elated at seeing us and showed us about the place. Ruth King was employed there and said that there was nothing like olives for increasing the height. As we were departing we ran across Gladys johnson dickering with Hel- en's husband over water which she sold to the valley farmers for irriga- tion from her reservoir in the near- by mountain. Two weeks later we left for Port- land. We were greatly surprised when our tickets were collected to recognize our old friend Douglas 'Bowman. He was hoping to become president of the road some day. At Portland my wife decided she needed a new hat, which we duly purchased at Leo Nelson's Millinery Store. l was in hopes of seeing Leo, but his wife said he was shooting craps some- where. At Helen Parker's cigar store l met Ward Thomas. He and Stanley Hicks were in the bootblack business. It was not very profitable, he said, but they had had hard luck and it was the best they could get. How- ever, Lena Layne, reputable clairvoy- ant, told him he had a great future ahead of him if he could see it. We hope he can. l thot l wouldn't be anything better than a banker my- self,-but l saw far enough ahead to make a prominent peanut broker. Tiring of Portland after a few weeks, we returned to 4Tacoma. Ma- rie Nelson happened fa be on the same train. She was going back to her old job as cook at some lumber camp near Eatonville. She said that Lillian McCreary and Marie Meyers were also at the same camp and worked with the idonkey engine. Wherever l went it seemed l saw some representative of the class. Even in such an out of the way place as Tnino l saw George Anderson driv- ing a milk wagon. Tacoma certainly looked good to me after my absence, and l rejoiced at being back again. lt happened to be the Fourth of july and the city was crowded with people coming to see the carnival at the Stadium.

The serious side has been dealt with by some of the greatest speakers of this country, but they have also touched the humorous side. Our first speaker of the year was Edgar C. Wheeler, secretary of the Y. M. C. A. He spoke to us of the work of the Seven Sisters and pointed out the importance of their work and urged us to boost for them. The Christmas program was given by the pupils of Miss Dodd's oral classes and was much enjoyed by all. The Girls' Clee Club furnished some very delightful musical numbers. Dr. lra Landreth brought to us a splendid message. He said that if we wished to take our places in the world and to become real men and women we must have purpose, purity, preparation, and persistency. We were greatly pleased to have an opportunity to hear Mrs. Grace Manners Brougham of England. Her subject was Leadership. She said that other countries would look to America for leadership and that we must be prepared. Soon after that we had as our guest Dr. Russel of Camp Lewis. We were exceedingly interested in his talk. He gave us an inside view of the recent doings of science, and told of the wonderful things accomplished during the war to benefit mankind. We were all delighted as well as instructed when we had the pleasure of an address from Dr. Carpenter. His subject was Worlds in the Mal:- ing. He gave us an idea of our earth in relation to the moon, stars. and other planets. We had a Glad assembly, too, to welcome home our boys who had just returned from Over There. Andrew Sandegren told us of their trip over and some of their experi- ences in England and France. Hubert Watson brought to us the joys of the return trip. It was a great assembly. At another assembly Mr. Putnam presented the letters to the football teams. Although the Midgets were the only ones to win the champion- ship, the others played splendidly and we are proud of them. At a recent assembly we had two very interesting speakers, Dr. Merritt and Dr. Blaisdell. Dr. Blaisdell spoke on the Business of Discovery. l am sure everyone rceeived something worth while from it. A From these interesting assemblies we ought to have got something worth while and something to remember as one of the bright spots in our school life. - 0350i G. A. A. THINGS certainly have been lively over at the gymnasium lately. One thing followed right on the heels of the other. The first was Mac Mc- Gee's Circus. Although it was es- sentially a boy's affair, the girls helped out. lt was great fun practic- ing for the Highland Hing and the Spanish dance, and most fun watch- ing the others practice. 0 3 0 TENNIS All the' matches are arranged for the tennis tournament. Most of the Senior matches are played off and some of the under classmen, but the G. ALEXANDER BALL THE LINCOLNIAN l23 others have been rather slow. , Ada Harkness will probably be champion this year. The championship is especially desirable this year because there is a tennis racket offered for the winner, and letters for the win- ners of the class tournaments. 49139 - SWIMMING At last the wish of Miss Easterday and some other teachers is granted. The tank is open and everyone is taking advantage of it. I..et's hope the Flu doesn't bother again. 039 GYM DEMONSTRATION As a fitting finish for the year's activities, Miss Acker staged a gym 9 MUSIC EVER since Lincoln High School came into existence the music de- partment has made itself one of the many necessary parts of the school life. The pupils of the school can well be proud of the work this year as it far surpassed anything over done before in our school, partly because of the music department and new instruments, and also because some of the pupils have had four years' training here. A vote of thanks is here extended to Mr. Ball for the keen interest he has shown this kyear. The music de- partment, as it now stands, compared with that of five years ago, is a splendid example of what his earnest and unselfish work has done for our school. Ours is a practically new school. Despite this fact, the music depart- ment has almost one thousand dollars in the treasury. This is the result of the five operas and other entertain- ments given by the pupils. In addi- tion to this, Lincoln is the proud pos- sessor of nearly 53,000 worth of in- struments, including our beautiful exhibit for the parents of the students to see what is being taught in the gymnasium. The program: I. Grand march. 2. Spanish dance. 3. Reap the flax. 4. Dumbbells. 5. Bubble dance. 6. Wands. 7. Tactics. 8. Club drill. 9. Carnes. I0. Mazurka. II. Polka miniature. Moment musicale. IZ. Indian dance. I3. joy. I4. Spring. 330 NOTES concert grand piano. the band instru- ments, and also the assembly song books. Up to this time there have been five operas presented by Lincoln students. The first was Queen Esther, followed by Cinderella, Captain of Plymouth, Chimes of Normandy, and ,loseph's Bondage. It was a great success, being a heaviex opera than was ever before attempted. Many difficulties arose, and at one time it was thought to be almost im- possible to give it, because of the five weeks of school lost through the Flu and also because of the shortage of boys who could devote their time to it. However, it was put across suc- cessfully, as all our productions have been in the past. The Lincoln High Band is a new feature in our school life which is well on the road to success. The boys, who are given the use of the instruments, are now in fine shape, showing promise of doing big things next year. As yet they have not ap- peared publicly, but we hope in the LINCOLN GROUP THE .LINCOLNIAN l25 future to become well acquainted with them and their music. If anyone wishes to know what the orchestra has been doing this year, just ask those who have been at school this term and they will tell you that the music in assemblies was great. The work in the opera shows the line quality of music they are capable of. We sincerely hope that in the years to come the pupils will have as fine an organization as this 49 'F to favor them in assemblies, pro- grams, etc. Everyone has heard the Girls' Glee Club. Several assemblies were given by them and a fine spirit was shown by the girls in all their work. It is the sincere hope of those now leaving that the standard of the music department will continue to rise in the future as it has unfailingly done in the past.

All the time was spent in sewing carpet rags fglory be, for the convalescent soldiers at Camp Lewis. A good deal of the time of the Tokolah Club has been spent in enjoyment, but you can see that they do some good while they enjoy themselves. May l0th and llth the officers of the club and Miss Easterday, Miss Amiclon, Miss Kelly, and Miss Holroyd enjoyed a house party at Fox Island. They reported a most enjoyable time. They went swimming, had hikes, and ,, , IZ6 THE. LINCOLNIAN M took many good pictures. Certain members of the party were of a mis- chievous nature and attempted to play a joke on other members, but that was part of the fun. Evenings were spent sitting around the fireplaces, toasting marshmallows, popping corn, and telling stories. On the 20th there was a hike at Chambers Creek. A camp supper was enjoyed. just another of the good times the Tokolah Club is al- ways enjoying. 0 U 0 EXCHANGES Comments received during the year.

The question was, Resolved, that the United States should join the present League of Nations. At the Lincoln assembly the Stad- ium team, composed of Rose Port- man, Walter Burroughs, and Gilbert McLean, upheld the League of Na- tions in opposition to the Lincoln team which consisted of Theodore Brown, Eugene Hiclter and Helen Dryden. The decision went to Stad- ium. Walter Malone presided and the Judges were Rev. H. S. Black, Rev. J. O. Milligan and Frank Latcham. On their invasion of Stadium High. the affirmative team, consisting of Neville Crippen, Emil Cekada, and Audley Mahaifey, also lost the de- cision. The Lincoln team was op- posed by Valeda Brockway, Chrys- tine Malstrom, and Braven Dyer. The judges were Rev. joel Harper, Prof. lra A. Morton, and Elmer M. Hay- den. Notwithstanding the reverses met by the Lincoln teams, they pre- sented their arguments very credit- ably and hope to win from their riv- als in future contests. NEVILLE CRIPPEN Athletics t By GENE CHARLES McGEE FOOTBALL. INCOLN was defeated in football this year, but she had a good team and tried her hardest, just the same. The team was handi- capped sadly from the first by lack of experienced material. Also Coach Putnam was away for part of the time in a training camp. Although Mr. McGee helped coach in the mean- time, the team did not profit by Put- nam's absence. Things started out bright and shiny with only the lack HICKER. of veterans a dark clougl on the hori- zon. Then the flu came along and things were upset all around. Sta- dium held practice in spite of this, and there is where they got ahead of us. The Lincolnl team was unable to dorany practicing, 'almost of the boys got jobs immediately. After this was over and we returned to school we found that the coach was serving his country somewhere else. Mr. McGee took charge then and Captain Pollen helped coach the team. ' the went to the Stadium with defeat staring us in the face. The team played hard, as was shown by the number of crip- ples after the game. That was what lost the next game for us, although the subs played a good, hard game. Then the team was given some in- tensive training before the last game and it was started with the best line- up we had, and thelboys were learn- ing how to play. Lincoln tried as never before, but the Stadium line was too good and the game was lost by a close score. All the first team boys deserve credit for their perform- ance. Then about two days before game Putnam came back and we The line-up was: Ends-Kolstad, Brooks, Caldwell, Williams. Tackles-Hicker, Perkins, Stiles. Guards-Parker, Wade, Kendziora. Center-Gardner. Quarterback-Pollen. Halfbacks-Cook, Preppernau, Da- vis, Cultum. Fullback-Otto. 0 86 BASEBALL. Mr. Putnam is coaching baseball this year and at present the outlook is about even between the two THE. LINCOLNIAN IZ9 schools. The class games were won by Stadium except in the Senior divi- sion, but as the Lincoln bunch has its strength concentrated in the Sen- ior team the chances are not as bad as they might seem. George Ander- son started to come back, but he is not in school at present. lf he were here the series would be a cinch for Lincoln, but the chances are even without him. Captain Gardner is tuning up his batting eye and he is sure binging them on the bean. Pol- len, Gardner and Erickson are the onlyiones who have played on a first team beffiiie. The coach will have to work upia few of the likeliest men and get' them ready for first team playing. 'S'5m'e of these are Mullen. Kautz, Preppernau, Cook, Pease, and Hageness. 9345 BASEBALL Baseball practice had been held at the same time as the practicing 'for the circus, so as soon as that stunt was over, the baseball season opened up. The 9-A's almost ran away with the championship at that, and they were the ' only team besides the Seniors who put up any showing at all. The main event was the cham- pionship game between the Seniors and 9-A's held in the Boy's Gym Tuesday evening, May l4th. There was an admission of five cents, so there was quite a large audience. The first three innings were very ex- citing and ended with 9-A's in the read. Then the 9-A's became some- what careless and in the fourth in- ning the Seniors piled up a score of I3. After that the going was com- paratively easy for the upper class- men, although the 9-A's put up a game light. Helen Maloney, Betty Benson, and Camilla Berg were the stars for the Fresh. Helen is an ex- ceptional pitcher-she pitches a clean straight game and has splendid con- trol. We predict an athletic , future for her. The 9-A team will. probably be champions next year and in the years to come. The Senior team still plays strong enough to win, but is broken up by the loss of three of its good players. It does not work to- gether as smoothly as formerly. 6553 WRESTLING. LINCOLN won wrestling this year. Our school has always been a jump ahead in this game, because we have always had good coaches and it is popular. Every year the Lincoln boys work hard and steady and they deserve their victory. -We won five out of the eight matches. Coach McGee has had wide experi- ence in wrestling and his knowledge helped was: 95 lb.-Cook. IOS lb.-Dyer. II5 lb.-Williams. l25 lb.-Rudd.

H LINCOLN4 was also beaten in bas- ketball ithis yearf iiWe have no hard luck explanation to 054.1 al- the team to win. The team though in every game our tearri failed to hit its regular pace which lit has shown in games with'otlier teams. The first defeat was a great 'surprise to us, as we had played and defeated a team of stars that had returned to the Lincoln gym for night school. After the series was over we did beat them in an informal game played in the City League. the Lincoln team being called the Winged A's and the Stadium team the First Congregation- al Church. ln this League the A's finished nearly in the top place for the whole city, while the Stadium l30 THE. LINCOLNIAN team was two or three places behind it. Some good games were played by the team in the City League. Two of the team will be back next year, but the others will not. The line-up was: Center--Gardner. Forwards-Erickson, Olswang, Nel- son. Guards-Preppernau, Pollen, Mul- len. 936 TRACK. Coach Hennig has worked like a Trojan to get the track fixed up this year and at present the chances of a good track team are likely. The track is in fine shape and the boys are turning out every night with en- thusiasm. Some of those who have shown up good are Anderson, Eaton, Cook, Cultum, Rumbaugh, Prebula, and Sandegren. Caldwell will also turn out. Both Cultum and Caldwell have reputations as runners. Ander- son, who is a shark at putting the shot and pole vaulting, broke his wrist the other night when he made a record pole vault. lt is doubtful whether he will be able to enter any- thing but the' runs in the big meet. Q- as Q TWO -MILE RUN. A big two-mile race was held on Friday, May I6. Kirkwood Eaton led the field all the latter part of hte way and' won easily. Andrew San- degren was the only one who made Eaton run. He was second and Ad- ams third. The entry list was small. The race was conducted by McGee and the first three received prizes. 0950 SOME THINGS LINCOLN NEVER HEARS ABOUT. Butch Davis buying a bar with money of his own. Mr. Parker excusing a boy to go to his grandmother's funeral the opening day of baseball. Mrs. Lamb selling bars for five cents and giving free lunches. Hubert Watson missing a night walking home with Hazel Salter. Pinky Conrad missing a day talk- ing to her in the halls at noon. The Freshies winning a game of baseball. G-959 BUNKUM Q BAILED HAY CIRCUS. On the lath and l9th the big Bunkum 6: Bailed Hay Circus was given to record breaking crowds. Mr. McGee made a big success of the cir- cus and took in a good stake for the Athletic Fund. The circus was a great success and all the crowd were pleased. There were several comedy attractions and some clever acrobatic work, specially some horizontal bar work by McGee himself. Sadie, the trained elephant, got a laugh from everybody, and so did Husko the Strong Man fEarl Worth, and Stiela- coom Bill the Dead Shot fPaul Ottoj. The whole thing was so successful that a similar affair will probably be given next year if McGee is still here. McGee deserves a lot of credit for the circus, as it was a big undertak- ing and it took a great deal of time to work up the acts. Another fea- ture was the mammoth sideshow. Here Chow-Chow Pete the Wild Man was the big feature. Madame Wis- kerino, the bearded lady, delighted the kids. The circus made more money than all the athletic teams put together have raised this year. , one Life holds much in store for those Who wish to find it: Opportunity comes to all of us, But there are few who mind it. Success does not always come To those who would be great: But Happiness is always the reward For those who can give and take. M. R. E. THE LINCOLNIAN l3I ALIASES. Walter Malone-Whats Mutt.

Mr. Rummel was standing in the door-way of the Lincolnian Office when a scantily clad urchin with a bow and arrow stealthily snuck around the corner.

Done this l9th day of May, 20l9. By Mr. Arthur D. Pochert, B. V. D.: P. D. S.: P. R. ln memoriam of the old days which l spent at Lincoln High during my youth l do, at the age of one hun- dred and one, write these lines for my descendants to read, that they may profit by them ln my freshman years of innocence and stupidity fwhich quality l still possess to a marked degree, as l am sorry to sayl, l first became a fol- lower of the gentle art of fussing with the fair sex: but as l see it now, that was when l turned off the straight and narrow path. My story follows. May you not be overcome with the pathos of my blasted youth so you cannot finish it. One ibright, sunshiny, placid spring morning when the merry, hap- py, cheery, charming robins. spar- rows, hawks, crows, 'bluejays and humming birds were singinvz ri- e-'ly to themselves, I plodded my weary way to school. Being rather hungry, l bethought myself to take some slight refreshment in the form of a pie at Hazel Clark's. As l dropped in and settled down on the softest wooden bench of the establishment, l noticed a mere slip of a little girl reclining at the far end of my bench. Her big eyes, which were as beauti- ful as the stars and seemed veritable wells of expression. regarded my pie with a longing in their depths that l could- not long resist. Seemingly as if by accident she dropped her school books, and l of course rushed to her assistance.

When l finally graduated from high school and entered college l still remembered the little girl l left be- hind. Often l went to see her, and I do truy believe that she had a fond affection for me. even though she showed it little, being bashful, as many are. When l graduated from college l went to see my beloved and told her l would soon be able to sup- port her in ease, as l intended to go immediately into the business of a peanut vendor. l then went away and for five years l diligently kept my wagon going thru the street of a large city as l sold the peanuts and popcorn.

Walt Malone, trainer of crocodiles and eater of snakes, will endeavor upon his entrance into the wide world when through his studies to start a poultry farm. All chickens apply at once. Gene Hicker, sometimes known as the human excuse for suicide. intends to devote his entire time to his favor- ite avocation of studying the habits of ants. Gene intends to travel to the tropics and put to use the great armies of ants which inhabit the jun- gles. The only study he has made of aunts so far is to see if he can discover a distant one who will leave him a fortune. Abe Olswang. he of the famous brain for finances and ping-pong, has not considered just what he will do in the hereafter--that is, in the time to come after he finishes Lincoln High: but it is thot by many of his friends that he won't have to choose his life work-it will belchosen for him. Draw your own conclusions from his past record. Art Pochert, the inexhaustible talk- er fhe took first prize in 'competition with a flock of phonographs in his freshman days and has since improv- ed considerablyj, will endeavor to control himself sufficiently that he may not fall for every member of the fair sex he meets in the future and take up the study of medicine and surgery. Art's father is a butch- er, so he says he inherits the art of carving honestly and ought to make a success of the surgical part, at least. Ralph Pollen has made such a suc- cess of his studies in high school that he intends to become a professor of Creek in Yale university. They may need a Yale lock on him before he is through. Always remember that he must be humored. The only other thing he says he might consider is the art of dentistry, and this is be- cause he says he is such a good one at pulling boners in the agricultural class that he might be able to pull teeth. ir? l I I Q: fn Q N.
