I.. KINNICY Mr, Kinney has been with the class of '26 throughout its four years of work and he has been very faithful and un- tiring in his efforts to make each of our lives a success. He has ably helped to raise the standards of our High School and put us on the high basis we occupy today, and his infiuence has been inuch felt in the creating of good school spirit and good sportsmanship in our inidst. SUPERIN'l'l'lNDF1N'1 R, C. SMITH As Superintendent of the lVlaconih Pub- lic Schools, Mr. Smith has now finished his third year and his splendid work throughout these years has surely been much appreciated by all. VW- trust he may be with niuch longer in this capacity as he has proven himself an able leader in every sense of the word. The spirit of harmony and co-operation ainongr both the student body and the lllk'IlllK'I'S of the faculty has been especially noticeable during the time he has been with us.

' .1259 X Senior Class Historq VVe are unrolling the final length of the scroll of our High School days and are coming closer and closer to the finish of this record of four brimming years. It is with drooping head and laggard step that we are beginning to realize, that these four years, so filled with laughter and joy, the exuberance of youth, the triumph of labor well-rewarded, are coming to the close of a perfect four-period day in our lives. And what are our High School years more than a long sweet day in the everlasting race for existence? 1 VVe all have seen and known the fresh exquisite loveliness of a spring dawn. Spring comes like a frail veil, touching every growing thing that has lain dormant through the winter, with new life, the wonder of being. So may we liken our Fresh- man year in High School to the influence of a spring dawn. lVhen this class of '26 entered old M. H. S. in 1922, it was with the wonder and aspiration of the very young. VVe somehow, vaguely realized that high above was a radiant goal which must be gained, and child-like we stumbled over the obstacles of the road, while our heads were .erect and our eyes sought the gold ideal. Then came the next step upward. VVe became Sophomores in the golden sum- mer, the noon hour when the sun was at its height, and its brilliance, warm and friendly, was spread about. All the child-like wonder and reverence of the dawn had disappeared, out-radianeed by the flame of mid-day. VVe had grown a little older, a little wiser, and had advanced a step toward the burnished idol. Have you ever seen a sunset in the autumn when the sky vies with the maple leaves for color, and the wind is full of the tang of apples. and the rustle of fallen leaves like the swish of brown taffeta? It is the time when the day-light is begin- ning to wane and the gentleness of the evening, ushered in on batis wings, spreads over the earth. So was our Junior year, still retaining the vagabond, vigor of youth, but also slightly touched by the austerity of a greater advancement toward the god- dess not so far distant now. Then picture the still clear cold of a December night, with the firmament a net of perfect blue, the meshes tied with star-shine. Serenity, sobriety, and perfect peace are predominant. A radiance, all over-powering in its grandeur, permeates the air. The final goal has been reached, the last step taken, and with Burns we are emerging to bear the greef' VVe have reached the promised ideal, so far dis- tant at first, and are now about to leave the protecting wing of M. H. S., and are bound for new streets of life, somewhat prepared by our past encounters with the diversity of Fate, for newer and more difficult experiences ahead. +lxIARTI'IA LINDSTEDT. I .

He graduated from Salem College in VVest Virginia and spent two years as a student at Lombard, where he was an All-State selection in football and basketball. He has thoroughly proved his ability as a coach while here and from a scarcity of material has developed teams that were always feared by our rivals. A coach has about the toughest job in school. He has to be responsible to the school and the townspeople as well. As long as a winning team is produced all is well, but as soon as the team begins to lose, the coach has to bear the brunt of the storm of razzberries, which issue from all directions. VVhile our teams have lost but few games since Jack came, even then it was evident to all tl1at it was no fault of the coach that we did lose. Jack always has the interest of the players and the school at heart and l1e holds a prominent place in High School activities. lt is the earnest hope of the student body that he may be with us next year, but if he goes elsewhere we wish him a world of good fortune. f FIFTY FOUR TH1+l 1926 ,. fe , qw .

I' gr Jack issued a call for football candidates on the opening day of school and by the time the ineligibles were weedcd out, a squad of twenty-five boys was present to defend the colors of Macomb High. Out of this squad only a few had any football experience and prospects looked gloomy. The schedule was later than usual in getting started and by the time oi' our first game on October 10, Jack had rounded a fairly good team into shape. MACUMB 10-ABINGDON 7 The first game of the season was a battle royal with Abingdon, a team that was undefeat- ed the year before. They scored their touchdown in the opening quarter hy means of a forward pass and then kicked goal. The half ended 7-0, but after a thorough discussion of the tE'i'lIlllS faults, the Orange came back and pushed over a touchdown to tie the score. I.ater in the third quarter Dick Mercer booted a pretty place kick over the bars from the 35 yards line and this ended the scoring with Macomb having her first game a victory. MACOMB 0-Rl'SHVll.I.l'1 0 The next week-end our team journeyed down into Schuyler County and fought the heavy liushville team to a scoreless tie, although we would have won easily if Capt. Clingan's punting had not been far below par. XVe had the ball on their one yard line in the first quarter and on the last down Mercer plunged over the chalk line only to be thrown back before the referee's whistle blew. The rest of the game was hard fought and played mostly in midfield, although once our goal line was threatened after a miserable punt. MACOM B 25-CANTON 0 Playing in a sea of mud for the first time this year, our warriors proved themselves able sea dogs and they ripped the Canton line to shreds for a 25-0 victory. Mercer starred in this game with his line plunging and open field running. MACOMB 28-ILLINOIS MILITARY ACADEMY 0 The cadets from Aledo, coached by Don Kinney, brother of our own Mr. Kinney, were the next victims. The night before the game an enthusiastic crowd of boys armed with shovels, went out to the Hilltop and worked until seven o'clock scooping the snow off the field. The sun came out bright the next day and turned the field into a bay of slush and mud, but this failed to handicap our high-powered outfit and they had little trouble in win- ning. MACOMB 34.415 EARDSTOWN O After two weeks of rest we again swung into action. This time against the Beardstown oufit. The field was again ankle deep in mud, but the team showed its best form of the year by winning easily. Tubby Frowein thrilled the crowd by returning two punts, 35 and 50 yards for touchdowns. MACOMB 15-PEKIN 23 On the best day of the season, we lost our one and only game to the powerful Pekin Iileven. Aided by a large crowd of rooters, we went over with high hopes of winning and thus avenging our last year's defeat, but it was not to be and led by the mighty Bruder, they ran our ends dizzy for a 23-15 victory. The first half ended 10-0 and soon after the 4? FIFTY-FIVE THE 1926 'li l SPIDER VVEB second half hegan, we hlocked a punt and .Xllison recovered hack of the goal line. Claiming that a ground rule allowed hut a safety, we were given hut two points. This seemed to take the life out of the team and Pekin scored two more touchdowns, while we were unahle to score hut one and that just a few minutes heforc the game ended, IVIAXCOMB 0- fSl'.XI,lJING 0 Playing' heforc the largest crowd of lhe season, we held the powerful Spalding Institute of Peoria to a tic. This team had tied Peoria Manual who had heaten Pekin and, therefore, we felt very well satisfied with the outcome of this game. It was only hy ferocious fighting that the Orange clad lads were ahle to keep Spaulding from scoring. YVe never had a chance to score, hut Spalding' was within our 20 yard line during practically all of the final quarter. Vicious tackling: kept a touchdown away and two place kicks went wild when the kicker was rushed. The gliillll' ended with Maconih in possession of the hall in midfield after a heau- tiful punt hy Clingzan, which was recovered. CA PT.

His passing as a rule was excellent, considt-ring that this was his first attempt at the gridiron game. On defense he was especially strong and next year will find us well equipped with a center. Dick came to us from the Academy and had never had a football outfit on before. Vndvr Jac:k's able coaching, he developed into a line plunger extraordinary and a constant threat wi hin the 35-yard line with his place kicks. Next year should see Dick become one of the tlashiest foot- ball players ever at Macomb Hi and we arm- sure he will learl a successful team for us next fall. FROYVEIN Tubby camo out for football only after two weeks of practice had passed by. He nt-ver had played football and thought that he couldnt However, as the season wore on, he directed the team from his position at quarterback with increasing ability. Tub did all the passing and it was unusually accurate. Ability to handle the basketball probably accounts for this. Tubby has one more year of competition in athletics and should turn out to be a whirlwind quargere back next year. JACKSON Leland was an able end, also, and only proved his worth in the Pekin game when he stopped the mad rush of the Pt-kinites when shoved in at Dunbar's end. He play- ed a whale of a game against Spalding and, like Dutch, he should develop into a won- derful wing man as he has two more years. 4 HAMPTON Keith was without a doubt the fastest man on the squad and he played a nice game at guard. He seemed to be a bit nervous at times, but as this was his first year that can be expected. Next year, he should prove to be an able guard.

SIXTY J '1lHE 1926 Swim, p SPIDER VVEB a a s Our basketball season from the point of games won and lost was not a howling success, but our showing in the tournaments made up for any shortcomings during the season. Only one letter man was present when the call for basketball candidates was issued and around him Jack built a team that was not a setup for the best of the teams in this section. For the first time in many years we failed to wrest a vic- tory from our honored rivals. the Academy, but this was due to the fact that tl1ey were represented by a veteran team, the best in their history. To .lack goes the lion's share of the credit for all Macomb High School victories and but little blame can be attached to him for our defeats. Our basketeers as usual opened the season at Bardolph and were able to win only after a hard fought game. The score was 13-10 and in our lineup only two letter men were present. Resting over the Christmas vacation. we journeyed to Galesburg and took the worst beating in the history of the school. The score was 33-2 and in this game three men played their first game of basketball. Frowein and Clingan were out of the game which made matters much worse. Playing our first game on the home floor, we handed Bushnell a 22-7 trimming and followed this with a 16-13 win over Abingdon. The boys journeyed down to Schuyler County the next week and took a 11-12 trimming from a greatly inferior team. VVe had them skunked S-0 at the half. but fouls in the second half caused our downfall. The first game of the city series was played next and our team, displaying tl1e customary fight of llacomb High teams, held the highly touted VVesterners to a 2-L-17 score on their own court. Galesburg came to our gym two days later and al- though outplayed, they managed to beat us by the scant margin of 18-12. This greatly atoned for the defeat they handed us earlier in the season. Carlton wrested a hard fought battle from us by a score of 17-1-14 the next week and again we lost after outplaying our opponent. The second game with Academy, played on our floor, found them too hot for any team to beat and we dropped another game. This time the score was 30-1-11. Our losing streak was finally broken at Bushnell. when we took a regular old-fashioned game from them by a 16-5 score. JS i SIXTY ONE THE 1926 I 'ix tai ,M SPIDER VVEB 6 , Alia X Tubby Frowein suffered a severe gash in his head in this game, but he was able to play at Quincy the following Monday, when our team displayed the best form of the season in winning 19-6. The XVestern tournament came next and after winning from Alexis and Knox- ville by the identical score of 25-11, we met Abingdon in the semi-finals. VVe won a hard battle 2-11-20, and then played the Academy for the championship. VVe were ahead 1-1--7 at the last of the third quarter and everything looked rosy for the greatest dope upset of the year, but Chuck McKee who had effectively covered Grigsby, the Academy flash, for three periods, gave out, and the Academy staged a whirlwind comeback and beat us 18-1-1-. Although defeated, we are entirely satisfied for we outplayed them during the greater part of the game and had the Academy supporters in tears begging for a victory. Rushville came here the week after the tournament to get a 22-11 trimming. After seeing them play, everyone wonders how they ever managed to beat us in the first game. Abingdon on their own floor! A hoodoo for Macomb teams and this year proved no exception. lVe lost 18-144, but the team put up a creditable game against the overwhclining odds of their band box gym with a low ceiling. The District tournament at Monmouth found us playing Augusta in our first game. Yve beat them 22-9 and then we met the Academy and were defeated in a close game by the score of 21-20. The team played a wonderful game, but could not overcome the odds they played against in the form of the speedy Academy outfit. Wicks? L 3 vx 4' f CR5. THE 1926 . SPIDER VSVEB ffkfit W - FROVVEIN GREELY MCKEE CHl'Rl'HILL LLOYD FROVVEIN-Capt. Tubby played his third year of basket- ball this year and held down the center position. He formerly was a forward, but lack of material caused Jack to make a center out of him. He was the leading point scorer on the team and his all around playing gained him position on the First All-Star teams at both the VVestern Tourna- ment and the District Tournament held at Monmouth. His presence next year will mm-an a lot to our team. ' FRANCIS GREELEY Fats played his first year at the indoor game this year. By the time the season ended he was going great guns, He could always be depended on for a basket or two a game and his neat dribbling brought forth no little comment. A guard position on the All-Star Team at Monmouth was award- vd him. He also is back next year, :iw 4 Mm JOHN CHURCHILL A sub for the last two years Johnny at last made the team and proved his ability in all our games. His guarding and fights ing spirit were always present and he was awarded a place on the All-Star Team in the NVestern Tournament, Johnny grad- uates much to our regret. CHARLES McKEE Chuck developed into a flashy forward by the time the year was over and he was alway in on his share of the baskets. Al- though not a spectacular player. Chuck played steady basketball and he too will be welcomed back next year. Qt fa SIXTY-THREE THE 1926 , llpw l SPIDER WEB M' I .- S' ibm.

His basket shooting eye came into its own dur- ing the last of the season and he was able to garner quite a few points. He will be with us again next season. GEORGE REED A freshman this year George played a nice game of basketball. He had a good eye and was always fighting for the ball. Three more years should develop him into a won- derful player. QF?-' BROADHEAD DUNBAR CARL DUNBAR Dutch is another freshman on the squad and although he got into but a few games, his ability is evident, VV'ith another year to grow in, he should become a wonderful guard and be able to fill Churchill's shoes next year. VERNON BROADHEAD Broadie was the fastest man on the squad and also the smallest, which greatly handi- capped him. He handled the ball Well, but seemed unable to hit baskets. However, in the two years before him he will no doubt develop into a star forward.

Track at Macomb High School is not a sport that takes very well with most students, because a track meet is very tiresome to watch. Nevertheless we had a fair track team last year and three letters were awarded. The boys receiving them were: Tom Gilchrist, Keith Hampton and Larry Allison. Gilly wo11 every hurdle race in which he participated and in the meet at Rush- ville he broke the record in this event. He also competed in the running broad jump and managed to get a place in all of the meets we were in in this evcnt. Gilly graduates and his points will be missed next spring when track meets begin. Larry Allison won a first in the half mile at the County Blect and a third at Rushville and the Neighborhood Meet at the College. This was the only event that Larry took part in and he too will be absent next year. Keith Hampton came out for track for his first time and by the end of the sea- son had developed into one ofthe fastest dash mcn ever to don a track suit at Macomb High. He ran the 50 and 100 yard dashes and placed in every meet he entered. This year should see Keith capture quite a few iirst place medals. Our Relay team composed of Jackson, Gilchrist, Hampton and lNIcKee took Hrst place in the County Meet. Prospects for a winning team this year are anything but bright, but we feel sure Jack will develop some boys into point winners as he always does.

How different are the sports now than they were in our older sistersl time. Girls then took part only in such games as tennis and German bat-ball. Now we endeavor to develop our athletic ability by various games ust as the boys do. This year the girls did not play hockey, but started basketball practice early. At Hrst. there were enough girls from each of the upper classes to form a Junior and Senior team. For certain reasons, however, the Seniors were lessened until only three remained. Elizabeth Butcher was chosen captain by the Seniors and Violet Hlinner was elected captain by the Juniors. Teams were then picked from the girls who were out for basketball.

Volley ball teams were chosen from the Sophomore and Freshman classes. Dorothy Crain acted as captain of the Freshman team, and Georgia Broadhead of the Sophomore team. Due to the small number of Sophomore girls there were only a few Volley ball games. The game 'iKeep Away in preparation for girls, basket- ball was played, and the Sophomores generally managed to win from the Freshies. Hiking and tennis have also been very popular sports with the girls this year.

The production staff deserves much credit for the attractive stage settings. The first act was staged in the living room of an old southern mansion and was done in antiques.

In the end the entire personnel ofi the two debating teams representing our school was selected from the Club. The members of the affirmative team were Howard McCalley, Max Thompson and Charles Kellyg those of the negative were Elizabeth Butcher, VVilliam Foster and James Gumbart. In constructive argument the members of the two teams spoke in the order named above. On February 25, the affirmative won from Cuba 3-0. One day later the nega- tive lost a very close debate at Carthage 2-1. On March 26, the aflirmative will debate Jacksonville, there, while the negative will meet Keithsburg, here. This will complete the district debates. The question for debate this year was chosen by the State Debating League of which our school is a member. It is stated as follows: Resolved, that the proposed child labor amendment to the national constitution should be adopted by the United States. It is a question of interest and since it is vitalvand fundamental, has deserved our close study.

However. at the end of the first semester, we find only seven continuing, owing to various reasons.

Our course has consisted of many phases of Art study. The material has hcen taken from Nature. Commercial and Historical de- signs and color harmony charts.

The nature of this program had been guarded as a state secret, therefore when the curtain was pulled, the students were greatly surprised to find that they were to have a regular movie with all the embellishments. The first event in this novel program was The Pathetic News of the Day. In this part, the students saw themselves as they are seen by the faculty members. Next came the regular orchestra numbers and vaudeville skits. The students had little dreamed that Macomb High School was concealing such remarkable ability from the rest of the world. The last part of this program was The Faculty Feature Film. After this demonstration, the audience felt that Macomb ranked first as to the excellence of its movie stars, with Hollywood a close second. Finis ,- EIGHTY THE 1926 SPIDER VVEB J!

He immediately starts proposing, and Emma cannot decide, but she tells him if no one who comes to the shop that day goes away empty-handed, she will take that as a good omen, and will accept his oder. Peter wants to stay and see this, so he gets behind a screen to watch the saleswoman. As the different customers come in, Emma finds she hasn't the things they want, and Peter, behind the screen, throws over various articles of apparel to fill the demand. At last, a lady calls even for the screen. In the meantime, Emma finds our Peter has lost all his money. In the end, when Peter comes out from. behind a pile of boxes in a dress coat and shawl, he thinks Emma, who tells him the ornen was fulfilled, is going to accept only in pity, and is very discouraged, but Emma assures him that she likes only him, and with her love, he is really rich!

THE FRESHMAN PARTY As is the custom of the Freshmen, the class of '25 held its annual party on December fourth, in the High School gym. It proved to be a great success and there was a large atten- dance. It was a hard time party, and all came dressed in old clothes, and prizes were awarded for the best costumes. The party started with a grand march., then games were played, in which the teachers took part. Ten cent Christmas presents were exchanged, and refreshments consisting of cake and Iollipops were served. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB PARTY The Home Economics club after re-organization, gave a party in December to initiate new members. The fun began when the girls to be initiated were taken to the gym and commanded to put their clothes on backwards, and then were requested to march up to the second floor and return to the gym walking backward all the way. Following the backward march, was a peanut race. Each participant in this event had to roll a peanut across the gym floor with her nose. A number of the new members were blindfolded and fed each other marshmallows blackened with charcoal. T'he concluding stunt was in the form, of speeches. Each girl could tell either her most embarrassing moment or of her first love affair. Most preferred to relate the embarrassing moment. Refreshments consisting of sandwiches, baked beans, cocoa and cakes were served. FOOTBA I .I .

The members of the football squad were guests of honor. FRENCH CLUB PARTY The Circle Francais had a Christmas party a Week before Christmas vacation. Each member brought a ten cent gift to exchange. Variety was certainly the spice of that party, for the greatly varied gifts were a source of much amusement. There was everything from drums to soap! After the Santa Claus affair, French games were played until the contestants became so boisterous that refreshments had to be served to pacify them. After singing some French songs, we adjourned, and a thoroughly good time was had by all. EIGHTY-TWO THE 1926 yflw SPIDER WEB - fi . A i wa? THE SCHOOI. BOARD ENTERTAINED It has been customary for several years for one of the high school Home Economics classes to entertain the School Board at a dinner. This year it was the lot of the 10B cooking class to prepare, serve and act as hostesses to this august body. This event took place December 17, 1925, and being near Christmas, it was made a Christmas party. T'he table was set in Room 9 and prettily decorated in red and green crepe paper and Christ- mas candles. To each place card there was attached a toy gift which represented the hobby or favorite sport of each guest. Mary Alice Dudman acted as hostess, Helen Zimkoske, Evelyn Stone as waitresses, and Bernice Butcher, Anna Elder, Irene Iilder and Violet VVoolem were chief cooks and dish- washers. The guests were: Dr. A. l'. Standard, Dr. S. F. Russell, Mrs. Minnie VValker. Mrs. liugenia Neece, Mr. S. B. Dawson, Mr. H. J. Deems. Mr. R. C. Smith and Mr. P. I.. Kinney. The following menu was served: Fruit Cocktail Meat I.oaf with Baked Apples Bnttered Beets Potatoes au Gratin Olives Celery Jelly Tea Rolls Butter Date Torte with NI'hipped Cream Coffee Mints FAC I' I.T'Y PARTIES AVhen the task of writing this feature of school life- From Behind The Scenes, as it were-was dumped upon me like a bushel of potatoes, a great many things flashed across my mind's eye. A troop of hamburgers came trudging along hand in hand with baked ham, smoothered rabbit, broiled steak, following on the heels of this brigade was a noisy band of juicy Spanish onions, celery, dill pickles, baked potatoes, Alley Inn baked beans, and behind these came a stately procession: date pudding with whipped cream, chocolate ice cream with fudge cake, cofee and lolipops. Deviled eggs limped along in the rear. Indeed, the faculty parties are social in nature. They always have food, which I've been told is a sign of a successful social. Mr. Kinney and Mr. Decker are the champion eaters, Mr. Gardner is star dish washer. It is a time worn tradition that we take our food to the woods in the balmy autumn days, but the never-ceasing rains has kept us indoors the entire year. VVith spring only a jump and one-half behind, we are looking forward to many delicate ham and egg sandwiches under the budding trees among the violets and pansies. I..mY Vind: mx XYERPI. VV. A. A.

It's almost 8:00 o'clock and you Won't have time to eat your breakfastf' '4Yeahl I'm coming, just a minute,', this from the daughter of the house who was making a lengthy toilet before her daily sojourn to school. That girlf, sighed her mother, as she vigorously beat pancake batter and with the skill of an adept, flopped the golden cakes from the griddle. Peter, what can we do to make her hurry? I have tried every method I know and she persists in spending an hour and a half every morning in combing that shingled head and slip- ping i11to four or five garments. It will have to be stopped. Besides being as slow as a snail. she has developed an extremely violent temper lately, and she and Paul disagree all the time, while I have to put the entire house between Ted and her in order to keep peace in tl1e family, and prevent them from coming to blows. The boys do tease l1er so, and she is so extremely sensitive V' This soliloquy was delivered emphatically to the well-meaning husband of Mrs. Parker. He was, however, so deeply engrossed with his morning paper that the entire complaint was lost upon his ears, and he roused himself only when he heard a veritable bedlam of noise issuing from the front of the house. Paul Parker, if you say that once more, or even so much as dare touch me, I'll yell just as loud as I can, and I'll tell mother all about it. K'That's all right, Sal, old dear, but if you tell on me, you know what I'11 do, and then youlll never get the car again, besides, you know you promised! Paul, oh you wretched boylw There was a desperate tone in her voice. Mother, make him stop tormenting me, he acts perfectly awful. Oh why was I ever cursed with such a brother?l' Here, here, children, what's all the rumpus about? I canlt see why you two must quarrel so. Can't you live peacefully together one instant? VVhy Sally, it is not the least bit lady-like or becoming for you to act like a perfect hoyden, and quarrel with your brothers continuallyf, Mother, I don't have the least desire to be a lady nor do I intend to sit still and let Paul and Ted get away with everything they want without one word from me. Nowadays, girls aren't merely ornaments, but are living, breathing humans who want their own rights ll' Yeah, I'll say they are no ornaments, if you're a specimen, jeered Paul. Say, Sal, you could lead on a bull when you get into one of your red rages, youlre so hot I could roast a frozen apple in two minutes by merely holding it in front of that face of yours. Vvhy, listen Mom, last night I happened to overhear .Iim Ma, was EIGHTY-FOUR HE 196 S FR WI+B T 9- ii PID I 1 at a t eg a,,, F 23e -.. - Randall and Sal, when they were on the front porch. Ole .Iim was talkin' a blue streak about Sally this and Sally that, and sis was takin' it all in just like gravy, and this morning I started to kid her about it and then! Pauli will you quit? Mother, make him stop. He's the worst boy I ever saw. Mother, can't you see I can't stand much more of this. He thinks it is a bright trick to tease me about Jim, and if you l1ad any control over him, you'd make him stop. I tell you, I'll leave home if you or Dad or someone does not do something to him. And Ted is getting just as bad. He learns everything from Paul and I think it's the worst influence the child can get. Paul acts like a rowdy street ur- chin and Ted is stepping in his footsteps just as fast as he can stepli' HAH right, Sally, that will do. I'll admit the boys do like to tease you, but you'll have to learn to abide by them for they will do it, and neither your father nor I have the power to keep them from it. Now come on, youngsters, and eat your breakfast, and let's try to cease this perpetual wrangling over apparently nothing. I don't want anything to eat, mother. Can't you see I'm actually getting fat, and I read some article the other day which said that breakfast is your most fattening meal In Yes, but, my dear girl, I do not intend to permit your going to school without eating something. Now, don't fuss and fume about it, I know what is best for a grownig girl, and no matter what your book of calories relates, you are going to eat some breakfast I At this juncture Ted, the youngest, a lively lad of eight years, caused an up- rising at the table by upsetting a glass of milk over the once spotless table cloth, and he and his father were industriously attempting a cleaning process with all the energy and useless action men apply in performing a housewifely act. Sally seated -herself next to Ted with a petulant gesture and began to nibble a bit of fruit. Her father glanced at her casually, taking a mental inventory of her discontented expression, her sullen eyes and the disgusted glances she cast towards the mirthful Paul, who was engaged in an engrossing conversation with l1is mother. Catching her eye, he indulged in giving her a sympathetic wink. She. however, merely glanced at him, and turned her attention to Shag, her Airedale pup. who had laid l1is head invitingly in her lap. Mr. Parker, looking a trifle disconcerted, but secretly amused, turned to Paul and began to correct him for a certain escapade. No sooner had he begun his monologue than Mrs. Parker immediately interrupted him with: Now, Peter, do not be too severe with him, you know it was not wholly his fault. Besides, I would not punish him in such a, mannerf, Oh! all right, Marge, have it your way. You ask me to correct the children and then you immediately interrupt my methods. Hereafter, I will not lay a finger on them! Here's your allowance, Sally. Paul, you come to the office for yoursf, And with gesture of contempt he left tl1e breakfast room. Ted, will you be so kind as to cease pinching my elbow, and bumping my arm every other minute. You have the most disgusting table manners I ever saw. Yes, Shag. you're a nice doggie, and youire my pal.', The irrepressible Sally turned from condemning her brother to applying affectionate terms to the dog. My word, what time is it? I must hurry. Mother, whereis my green hat, in one of the hat-boxes, in the hall closet? Thanks, yes, Iyll be home for lunch, unless it rains. ,Bye!,' The boys sat long with their mother, until it was time for their school to take up-then all was a rush and a tumble until they were well on their respective ways. At last, another morning begun, sighed Mrs. Parker, as she viewed the break- fast dishes standing in a disconcerting pile. She stooped to pick up a fallen napkin, and began to concoct in her mind's eye an appetizing menu for the luncheon which EIGHTY FIVE THE 1926 f I I SPIDER VVEB M' 'P ' A dk came all too soon in her regular routine. Oh! well, it wouldn't be home without them, and only I know how very pleasantly, lively and diverting it is with tl1e blessed mischiefs to watch hand and foot! She spoke with a tinge of sarcasm and a marked degree of hopelessness in her tone, as she turned and deftly attacked the dishes. MAn'rHA IJNDSTEDT. Future Fates It was twilight in London, a cold depressing fog enveloped the streets and I could only catcl1 glimpses of twinkling light that blurred and faded into vagueness. The cold, damp, stifling atmosphere seemed as a curtain drawn which whispered more of the past than present. That was why I found myself in a mystic dimly- lihted room listening to Senorita Ladell, whose voice contained the same hidden mystery of the fog, yet with an added tinge of warmth. I admit I was lonesome for the sight of a familiar face, so now, after the swift flight of ten years I was sitting before a mysterious magician in the hopes of ob- taining a fleeting glimpse beyond the crystal curtain of realism. Zee lady, she leeke to see dee old freends? Veery weel, theenk of dee past, and look at thees seelvvy screen, an they shall come to thee V' whispered the mystery ladv. I sat reclined in a deep arm-chair and gazed at the crystal screen, whose silvery beauty slowly changed into a sawdust ring. Into the center frolicked two, gay clowns, but I knew before I saw their faces that they were Eugene Russell and Donald Utley, a hand-spring, a smile, a bow-and the picture faded. Again as it seemed, from the very London fog came a second, softly tinted vision of beauty. Still more blizarre than the circus was the cleverly lighted stage in whose center was a marble fountain banked with flowers. A tiny gold and azure figure floated out from nowhere. Yes! It was Sara-- but did I see two, one-time basketball stars glaring hastily at each other? I cannot say for the picture dimmed and vanished. The crystal screen changed to rose, then into a riot of gay colors. A gorgeous ball was in full sway. The one-time Martha Lindstedt fhostessj whirled by on the arm of an Italian Count. It seemed as if I would hear again the old time strains. as my fleeting glimpse of YVilba pounding the keys and Smith swaying to the sound of his own saxophone, faded into nothingness. Slowly this scene of gaiety changes to one of stately grandeur. The Senate is in session listening to the impressive speech being delivered by James Gumbart. who blissfully unaware that he has forgotten to wear a necktie and that his handker- chief protrudes rather conspicuously from his pocket. In accompaniment with the voice of Senorita I.adell, the following scenes changed in swift succession, as if desirous of shortening my blissful trance. I caught a glimpse of Bill Clingan over-seeing a soft-drink parlor, yet one of those present had a suspiciously red nose! From one corner of the street Paul Curtis was auction- ing land to the highest bidders. Lucile Allison was now a civilized matron, whose husband said he was stone- brokeu when she asked to go to the show, the result was a divorce suit in which Mr. Gardner, the much heard of lawyer, was a prominent factor. Elizabeth Tregellas passed before my vision carrying a book. Senorita Ladell explained that it was the latest edition of Elizabetlfs published on Behavior of I-Iigh School Girlsfi The last picture was a tiny farm house nestling among pine trees, and leaning ,firm - We , .

Yes! .Iohn had disregarded the dictates of his head Qwhich led to VVashingtonj and followed the promptings of his heart, the result of which was a bungalow and Ruth. The sunrise became suddenly a dazzling blaze. Only then did I realize the room had become brightly lighted and was conscious of the mystery lady whispering i'Of thee others, the speerit world knows not of, eet ees now dee time to cross my hand with dee seelver!

Spring, spring, what joy and life it brings, Like the joy and love from a maiden who sings For her lover who has left and gone afar. And is now to her returning from fair Adonar. In spring, so sadly the moon floats on high As sad and still as the lover's faint sigh. To some, a spring morn brings lovely gladness Clearing their hearts from a dark sadness. O Spring! if thou can'st to some, joy bring, Bring the sad hearts an old carol to sing, As the twilight of eve wafts gloriously down, And dark night covers soft earth with a crown. RUTH MOON. CHARACTER SKETCH This young man is well educated and is very proud of his education. His great- est pride, however, is his wonderful vocabulary. He has no profanity in this collection. This vocabulary has been used to impress refractory students with their erroneous ways. He has other uses for it, of course, such as to compel the afore- mentioned students to use the dictionaries. One fault, if it could be called a fault, is that the temper of this young man is, at times rather violent. VVhen one of these violent attacks catches him unaware, he gives his vocabulary more exercise than it is accustomed to, which is considerable. He is neat, very particular as to dress. and his taste runs to loud'l neckwear. He is a great friend to labor, in fact, has tried a large variety of vocations. He is now in the position of school teacher. His sense of humor is strong, but controlled. He loves to argue, is a good de- bater and a very fine Democrat. His nature seems, in fact, to have absorbed some of the more favorable traits of the standards of the Democratic party. O. LANCE. 5 2 A e i tf- i.

A beautiful language is hers and more. If we want someone to write a story, someone to- take the lead in a play, someone to play a piano, we call on Martha. She does it, and well. Dependable.

I think teachers just delight To make us work, with all our might, And those words of Mr. Gardner!- livery day they get harder and harder, He thinks we should read every philosophers work, Frivolous thoughts in his brain never lurk. Dorothy Roadstrum is our sheha- Down our spine she makes the shivers ereepa, NVhen she gives us a cold look- VVe duck our heads in an English hook. A teacher I shall never be, You have to be so striet, you see. Mr. Kinney with his cookie duster, To face the assembly must courage muster.
