THE COST of the edition was about $1,250, making a per copy cost of $1.40. As this greatly exceeds the subscription price of one dollar per copy, the book is made possible only by our advertisers whom we gratefully acknowledge. THE BOOK contains 142 engravings, of which 82 are halftones. 59 zinc etchings, and one two-color plate. There are 30 panels of Senior pictures, 30 group pictures, and 18 panels of snapshots; in all there are about 1,000 faces. IN PRINTING, 1600 pounds of paper were used, three different colors of inks, and 160 yards of cloth. AS FAR AS IS KNOWN, the Tychoberahn is the largest high school annual in the state. lft First Semester Ben Gurney Sada Buckmaster Duane Bowman Dorothea MacLaurin SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President Vice-President Secretary T reasurer Second Semester Ernest Warnecke Lydia Lacey Dewey Swan Doris Cooper CLASS COLORS Red, White and Blue CLASS MOTTO To yourself be faithful, to your colors be true. 16 Alexander, Lorraine A v n aj is to begin with the beginning.

This I had readily consented to do. since I could leave my shop in Chicago to the management of my capable assistant while I took charge of my brother’s affairs until he recuperated. It was now the last day of my two weeks’ sojourn in New York. In the morning I was to leave the city and return to my own business at home. As it was late in the afternoon. I had already put on my overcoat and was about to leave the store when a young lady entered. 7 here was something about this young lady, something different from other young ladies, which immediately caught and held my attention. She was clad in a suit of blue, which, though somewhat worn. was. nevertheless, very neat. Her small feet were shod in a pair of plain black slippers of attractive type. I marveled that she should wear a thick veil over, as I told myself, a face that must be very pretty. I was-seized by a curiosity to see that face. By the movement of her graceful form as she came toward me, I knew that she was young. So interested did I become in this young lady. that, attired as I was, I advanced to wait upon her myself. Is Mr. John Stephan in?’’ she asked. I was struck by the silvery note in her voice. It gave me a pleasant sensation, bachelor that I was. Yet there was something hesitant in her speech, as there is apt to be in the speech of one in trouble. ‘‘John Stephan is not in at present,” I answered her inquiry. “His recent illness has compelled him to remain at home for some time. As he has recovered, he will be here tomorrow. However, if your call is of a business nature, you need not hesitate to communicate with me. I am his brother. Rudyard Stephen of Chicago, and temporary manager oc his affairs.” “Well, yes. I suppose I may communicate with you. You see, I have not much business. I have need to sell an imitation diamond for perhaps a few dollars, and was given to understand that this firm made such transactions. It is a very good imitation of an heirloom that was in my family for many generations.” This then was the reason for the veil, I assured myself. She was the daughter of some proud aristocratic family, and felt humiliated in making this transaction. She went on to explain how the diamond had come into her possession, and why she was forced to sell it. She belonged to a family of southern aristocracy. Her family, having been impoverished by the Civil War. had been forced to sell the diamond; but. being too proud to confess their needy condition, had had an imitation made, and this had passed down for two generations instead of the genuine one. Although its falsity had been discovered, the stone was still highly prized. But now her financial condition had become so low that she, too, had need to sell. I was very much interested in the story of the young lady. It gave me pleasure to think that through my sympathetic questions and promptings I could make her confide so much to me. She was so small and helpless, and the world is always cruel to a defenceless woman. I determined that I would do my best to help her. Let me see the diamond. I requested, encouragingly. Perhaps it may be of some value.” I hoped to get ten or fifteen dollars for it.” she answered as she handed me a small leather case. I opened it and looked in bewilderment upon the stone. It was one of the most perfect of its size that I had ever seen, and during my years of business I had seen many rare 50 Tt mmammarnmni 1 cuts. What a child to carry such a stone! How easily I could purchase it for almost nothing. She was in luck that she had come to me rather than to one of the many unscrupulous jewelers of the city. “My dear madam! I cried; this is no false diamond! It is the most perfectly cut stone I have ever seen.” No! no! You deceive yourself, she replied in a voice full of wonder. This cannot be a real diamond. The real one was sold long, long ago. I was the more interested for her honesty in thus endeavoring to dissuade me. But what did she know of the world! I examined the stone more critically under a lens. The result was that my first conviction was confirmed. I made a few more tests and then again addressed the young lady. I am convinced that the diamond is genuine. I declared. It is worth twenty thousand dollars at least. But the young lady persisted in believing her diamond false. The real one had been lost long ago, she kept repeating. She could not think of accepting an offer of fifteen thousand dollars for it. If it were really genuine, she would perhaps accept five thousand. You do not think I would offer you so large a price if the diamond were false) I asked. I do not wish to cheat you. I expect to make considerable profit myself. However. to satisfy you, I will consult my head clerk. Thereupon. I called in Samuel Jenkins, quite an authority on diamonds, as I had learned during my brief stay in New York. What do you think of this ‘foggy’?” I said, handing him the diamond. . He looked upon it in bewilderment. This is not a false diamond! he exclaimed. It is a real diamond and a good one!” Make sure of that, I said. Place it under a lens. He complied with my request, but his first conviction was unshaken. “You see that I was right. I said, turning to the young lady. But I fear to sell it if it should prove false,” she stubbornly replied. I cannot help but think it so. That can easily be avoided. I quickly responded, not caring to lose an opportunity for so much profit. You will accept ten thousand dollars for your diamond on condition that I give you a receipt stating that the money was paid for a false diamond? That would not be wrong on my part? she asked. And. having been assured that it would not, she hesitatingly closed the bargain. Accordingly, I went to the desk in the rear of the store and wrote out the following receipt: “I hereby pay to Alice Westerfield, ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00) for an imitation diamond. • Rudyard R. Stephan. This I handed to the young lady with a check for the amount and, after putting the leather case safely in my pocket, went to pay my respects to Brother John. I was highly pleased with myself and waited with the impatience of a school boy to disclose to my brother the transaction I had made. Having gained by brother’s chamber, I pulled the leather case from my pocket and handed it to him. I UK (JO A diamond I bought today,” said I. Look inside and tell me what you think of it. Brother John took the case and opened it. I fixed my eyes upon his face and waited to read its bewilderment. To my surprise, he looked upon the stone with little interest. How much did you pay? said he. It is a very good imitation. Imitation! I cried. I paid ten thousand dollars for it! I seized the box from my brother’s hand. The diamond was false! “This is not the real diamond! I exclaimed. I have acted like a child. I then told my brother all that had happened. Owing to the receipt I had given, nothing could be done. I had paid ten thousand dollars for a false diamond. The exchange from the genuine to the imitation stone. I now reasoned, could easily have been made while I wrote the receipt in the rear of the store. But when I think of this episode now. I am not sorry it occurred. Ten thousand dollars is not such a large sum for a bachelor like me. It has furnished me many a thought in the evening. It is the tidal wave in my otherwise quiet and uneventful life. Martin Hein. A WONDER WISH Oh what want I with work and school? I’d rather be a happy fool Than fuss and fret my life away For whys and hows of yesterday. What truly counts is not this clay. Or what effects our life to-day. But the sustaining soul that's wrought By pure and free and happy thought. Away with all which keeps me bound! The joy of Nature I have found; So free and unrestrained I’d be To go where She is calling me. I’d wander where the waters weep. And whisp'ring winds are hushed in sleep; Where grasses from the warm wet earth And flushing flow’rs have come to birth. The bloom is budding for the bees; The birds are twitt’ring in the trees; Then throbbing throats can’t help but sing, Here’s life! here’s joy! and sun! and spring! Oh blue the sky! Oh bright the lake! And all the things about me take Some share to make this sky and sod The perfect whole as planned by God. Oh can't you hear the fairies, dear? They’re summ’ning me from far and near To dance down to the waves and see Their fleet fantastic footing free. The sun is streaming o’er the sheen Of grass that’s growing fresh and green; So thus the joys about me call To come and live and laugh with all. To be as one with shining skies. As one with each small bird that flies. As one with blooming vales and leas. As one with sighing, singing seas. And so I’m going now, good-bye. To breathe beneath the open sky; For what want I with work or school? I’d rather be a happy fool! Betty Marshall, ’19. A DIPLOMATIC CORRESPONDENCE Edith's note came in the morning mail. Bee opened it at the breakfast table and then uttered a groan worthy of Lady Macbeth in her mood of deepest penitence. The family looked up startled. Seventeen years had not entirely accustomed them to Bee in her dramatic moments. ‘‘Poisoned pen communication?” asked Rob. As usual he was the first to recover himself. “I hope nothing’s wrong, dear,” said Mrs. Howard in apprehension. Wrong! I should think so.” Bee’s voice was tragic. Edith is planning to come over tomorrow to spend the afternoon and stay to supper.” “That would hardly seem an occasion for excitement,” remarked Mr. Howard in his mildest tones, while Rob laughed. Mrs. Howard’s face alone indicated understanding. This is not a convenient time. Bee; but still I think we can manage all right.” Convenient time!” Bee burst out. It’s an impossible time. It’s all very well for Edith who has her things made at a dressmaker’s. All she has to do is to st id up and have her dresses tried on, and she makes enough fuss over that. But if she had her sewing done at home as we do, and especially with such a fusser as Miss Robbins, and had to help with the sewing, and nine out of every ten minutes had to get some more cloth or hooks, or eyes, and only these few weeks before school begins, I guess she wouldn’t welcome the idea of company. Even Rob showed a little sympathy as Bee drew this picture. “Oh. well,” he said consolingly, don’t put yourself out for her. Give her a chair and set her to pulling bastings. And don’t make any fuss when it comes to supper.” That's exactly like a boy. You don’t know Edith, that’s all. She’d feel insulted if we set her down to a plain little family supper. No. indeed! I don’t say she'd expect a banquet, but she certainly wouldn’t be satisfied with something simple. I shall have to find some way of putting her off.” It seems to me. Dear.” suggested Mrs. Howard in a voice which seemed more than ordinarily soothing, in contrast with Bee’s rather harsh tones, that it would be best to be perfectly frank with Edith. As long as you would not feel at ease to treat her as one of the family. I advise you to tell her that you are very busy and that it will not be convenient to have her here for supper. “Oh, mamma! If you knew Edith as well as I do. you wouldn’t suggest anything like that. “It is true that I don’t know Edith well,” Mrs. Howard admitted quietly; but I have had the pleasure of the acquaintance of a good many hundred people during my life, and it has been my impression that, in the long run, sincerity pays.” Well. I can tell you that sort of thing wouldn’t pay with Edith. If I should come right out and say that I was too busy to have her for supper, she’d never speak to me again. Edith has to be handled diplomatically.” Bee thought a few minutes. “I know. I’ll ask Nellie to invite me to supper. I can run over there a few minutes after six and come right home again as soon as I’ve eaten. If I say I’m going out myself that'll settle the question for Edith.” Pity women aren’t eligible for diplomatic positions, mocked Rob, as his sister pushed back her chair. Bee scorned to notice the witticism. Will you leave a note for me at Nellie’s and mail Edith’s as you go along?” If it don't take forever,” said her brother. I can’t make myself late at the office for the sake of acting as a postman, you know.” Bee was already at the writing desk in the next room. She helped herself to her mother’s stationery, took up her father’s fountain pen, and scratched off a hasty note to Nellie: “Dear old girl. Please let me come over to your house to-morrow. Edith has written that she is coming to supper if it’s convenient and you know Edith always expects folks to be right up in style when she comes. I’m terribly busy now. too, for Miss Robbins is sewing on four dresses at once. Edith would simply be shocked. So please let me eat bread and butter and apple-sauce at your table to-morrow evening, and then run home. Always gratefully. Bee. The next note she wrote with more care, in spite of the fact that Rob had finished his breakfast and showed signs of being ready to leave. “My Dear: I’m so awfully sorry to tell you that I have an engagement for to-morrow night. Nellie has asked me to come there to supper and I’m afraid to ask her to let me off. Nellie’s a dear girl, but you know she’s a little inclined to be jealous if she thinks you like someone else better than you do her. I shall be terribly disappointed not see you again before I leave for school, but I shall write you as soon as I’m settled. Lovingly, Bee. 63 Bee took up the sheet to read it over just as Rob walked into the room. ‘Til give you while I count twenty-five. Bee, to give me those letters. And if they're not ready then, you can hand them to the post-master, yourself.” ‘‘Gracious! Bee hurried the notes into their envelopes, wrote the addresses, and turned them over to her brother. “There!” she said triumphantly to her mother, everything’s fixed, and nobody's feelings are hurt. I think that a little diplomacy works better than what you call sincerity. About an hour later the telephone rang and Bee was summoned. She came in a dress that Miss Robbins had just pinned on her and seated herself cautiously. Hello? Is it you. Nellie? Get my note? I got a note. Nellie's voice was unusually cool. ‘‘I’m sorry you have such a bad opinion of my disposition.” “What's that? As far as my being jealous of you goes. I didn't know that I’d ever been so devoted to you that I couldn’t stand the idea of your having other friends. And as for your coming here for supper, I don’t remember giving you the invitation; but even if I did, of course you’re perfectly free to break any engagement of the kind.” Nellie! gasped Bee. Her voice was hysterical. “There’s a dreadful mistake.” That’s plain enough.” Nellie laughed unpleasantly. The mistake was in letting me see what was never intended for my eyes. Good-bye, Bee. I hope you'll have a pleasant year at school. There was a decisive click at Nellie’s end of the line, but Bee would not accept it as conclusive. “Oh. Nellie,” she pleaded, you don’t understand. If only I could see you. I could make it plain in a minute.” “Number, please.” said the operator, and with a groan Bee hung up the receiver. Then an awful realization flashed upon her. Not only had the note she had intended for Edith gone to Nellie, but Nellie’s note would soon be in the hand’s of Edith. And since she had not begun, “Dear Nellie, but had used a salutation which would apply equally well to any of her friends, Edith would read down to the uncomplimentary references to herself, and it was not in human nature to stop there. Bee expressed her emotion in a hysterical scream. A pin, I knew it,” cried Miss Robbins rushing in. When a dress is being fitted, is no time to answer telephone calls.” But Mrs. Howard, who came hurrying behind her, knew the trouble was more serious than a pin prick. What is it, child?” Oh. mamma. I’ve lost all my friends!” The poor little diplomat collapsed, and there as no more fitting that day. Bee has no further ambition to distinguish herself in the line of diplomacy; and the older she grows, the more inclined she is to believe that the safest foundation for all friendship is sincerity.

IN THE SAME BOAT It was one of those fine days in early April that cause a fellow to feel glad he’s lazy; and, as Harry Gray, session room twenty-six, swung from a street car at the post office, he felt that Bernard Huebner spoke the truth, in last year’s Tychoberahn, when he called the high school a modern bastile and school days slavery. He opened the door of the school in much the same way that a would-be suicide turns on the gas. But then, like the would-be suicide who sees a copy of Dante’s Inferno in the bookcase and turns off the gas, Harry, who saw Chick Martin trying to explain to Miss Regan why he had failed to have his English on the day before, went down the steps two at a time and left these halls of learning to their fate. He was just leaving Kroncke’s with his fishing tackle when something happened which made him fear that all pleasure for the day was ended. For there, peering into the window, stood Mr. Bames. Mr. Barnes had probably seen him leave the school, and had followed him intending to march him back through the corridors to the office in triumph just as a Roman general with conquered kings and generals tied to his chariot wheels used to drive down the Appian Way. But so absorbed was Mr. Bames in Kroncke’s window display of fishing tackle that Harry was able to walk right past him and to a place of safety, without being noticed. At a safe distance, he burst out with a laugh. ‘‘Gee, that was a close one; I sure fhrj'h he hie! me then! Fishing in Lake Wingra generally resolves itself into teaching the worm to swim; and so it turned out that morning. But what difference could that make? It was much better to lie back against a tree, to look at the blue and white in the sky and to feel, “God’s in His heaven, all’s right with the world.” Harry finally went to sleep. Just as every black cloud has its silver lining. so every little white cloud has a black bubble for its center; and this bubble has a habit of breaking and turning the whole cloud black. Harry’s bubble was a dream; it turned his white 65 cloud black; ihe whole future took on a dark hue. He saw Miss Lyons take down the receiver, call his house, and tell his mother that Harry was not at school. He heard his mother say, Why, Harry went this morning; if he’s not there. I’m sure I don’t know where he is .He’s never played truant before; he seems to like school to well. I’ll have his father look into this.” And then he saw his father’s stern face—and awoke. There was no more sleep for Harry. His conscience began to trouble him. Only the day before, Mr. Barnes had given a very affecting lecture on spring fever. He had said. All of us have some of the cave man in us; when spring comes we have a desire to roam away from the city, to get entirely away from people. He had further stated that even he had such a desire in spring time. Sometimes.” he had declared. I find myself looking longingly out of the window and wishing I could get away. But that is impossible, as you will all find when you get out into life; for in life we must conquer our impulses, subdue our desires, and stick fast to our business ties if we wish any kind of success. We All Have Some of the Ca e Man in Us The remembrance of this emphatic conclusion bore so heavily upon Harry’s conscience that he resolved to go back to school, confess to Mr. Barnes, and stand his punishment like a man. As he drew in his line his bobber went up and down. A big jerk brought a large fish a whole foot above the water; but it fell back and darted away. How he wanted to stay and catch that fish. But Harry’s nature was like that of the prodigal son; when he made up his mind, he was going to do as he said regardless of consequences. He consoled himself with the thought that he was a martyr. This always gives a fellow a sort of melancholy comfort, but increases his determination to follow his conscience. So, casting one longing look at the lake,—its beauty had increased in the last five minutes—he tore himself away and started for school. He had hardly moved a step when there came to his ear the sound of someone whistling a lively tune. He jumped behind a tree and stood very still, then almost gave himself away as he chuckled. ‘‘By jinks, it’s Mr. Barnes with a fish pole! I guess I’ll stay all day!” Georce Harris.

Something happens which apparently cannot be explained. We wonder at it and think about it continually until 3 we evolve a tangled solution. Then the simple facts are made known. The creation of p| our imagination comes crashing down, a Jericho at the blare of the trumpets. The mystery jJ lies open, and we are filled with surprise and chagrin. I ] An incident of this kind occurred last spring at the high school. My chum. Don Phillips, and I were both taking physics, and performed our experiments together. One afternoon in laboratory Don claimed that he had an idea for a machine that would be driven by the wind. I doubted whether it would work, and so, after an argument, we II decided we’d stay after school and try it. |j The last classes of the day were over before we met again and ascended to the Lab. |l There were not many people on third floor and '{j Jfflb the halls echoed wierdly. I thought I heard something beside echoes, but I didn’t speak of it H i - 24, to Don. His machine wasn’t working right and jj he was irritable. Suddenly he looked up and ll said under his breath, Bob! What’s that?'' I g 1 hadn’t noticed anything just then, but we waited, p L vaT listening. Then we caught the sounds of some- [ j ' one cryhig, muffled and low. It wasn’t like a A j baby—anyway, what would a baby be doing on ,1 jRj the third floor of the High School ? We waited, M|R motionless. The crying grew louder and more | v ]]'WC —well, pitiful. Don gripped my sleeve and i Mk VJ pk whispered, Come on! We stole along on our fi n- 7.' rubber heels to the end of the corridor. There. j . t humped up in the corner, was a girl, probably a j,] Listen. freshman, crying as if her heart were oozing out in tears. She was all red eyes, tears, and handkerchiefs. Don and I stood and stared ,| we couldn’t help it In a minute she looked up and jumped at sight of us. Don turned ' red, and I suppose I did the same. Then she laughed! It was positively uncanny! With-out a word, I turned and made for the Lab. Don followed. And we didn’t come out again till we heard her go down stairs. All the way home that night I kept thinking about our finding her crying that way. tjl I supposed Don would have the reason for her tears all worked out He’s captain of a ' dub of high school boys interested in detective work. I’ve always thought I had some Fj! ability in that line myself, but I was baffled by this. I remarked casually to Don. Guess that kid we found up there must have been lonesome. Maybe she’s from away. They say it’s hard for some, coming to a new school. Huh! grunted Don. She’s been here a year longer’n you have, considering you’re a junior. As for being lonesome, she hadn't ought to be; there’s enough fellows and girls dancing after her most of the time. £ Maybe it’s marks then.” I persisted. “We got our three-weeks marks yesterday. £{ Some o’ those butterflies don’t get along very well in their studies.” |’j Huh! he growled again. She gets better marks than you do.% They’re mostly $ G7 Ex’s.” He seemed so ill-tempered about it that I decided then and there I wouldn't mention it to him again, if I never found out what was the matter. Still, I continued to ponder over the incident. Of course, it was no affair of mine, but it stuck in my mind. Just a week later I had an appointment at noon in teacher’s room down-stairs. I arrived a little early and went straight to the room. Finding the door open, I entered quietly. 1 here, curled up in one of the back seats, was that same girl, crying again, now harder than ever. She heard me come in. straightened up, and smiled at me through her tears, blinking her eyes in a crazy way. I grinned back at her sheepishly. I know, and stammered and stuttered, feeling like a great big block of wood. After shuffling around for what seemed an hour, I managed to blurt out. Excuse me, and slammed the door hastily. After this I was so angry with myself, with her, and with the world in general, that I was determined I wouldn’t think of the incident any more. But I couldn't help it. I kept imagining some reason fpr her crying. She surely wasn’t lonesome. I could see that for myself. Don had said her marks were good. The only other explanation I could think of was that she might be poor and unhappy at home. Maybe her father was a drunkard and knocked her around. Some men are that mean sometimes. I decided I’d follow her home after school, not letting her notice me. of course. All afternoon I congratulated myself upon my brilliancy in evolving such a plan, and I feverishly awaited the close of school. But I was in a worse quandary than before when I found she lived in a big house down in the old South district. It had a lawn the size of a city block and the largest garage I ever saw belonging to a private house. I asked one of the boys I met, who lived there, and he said the man’s name was Harcourt and that he was the head of the big bank up on the comer and had mints of money of his own. My last theory was smashed to fragments. Now my curiosity gained more and more of a hold on me. I was burning to ask Don about it, but I had my suspicions that he was as completely baffled as I was. Many wild solutions occurred to me, but they were far from probable. The only thing to do was to forget the whole matter. I told myself. I thought I had succeeded in this, until one day a week later, I saw the girl in the corridor, not crying this time, but laughing to herself as if somebody had just told her the best joke she had ever heard. Just as she was about to pass by. she looked up and recognized me. She stopped and, waving a paper at me. called out, I got it!’ Got what? I exclaimed, startled at the vague it.” “The part in the operetta! Then she explained. At last I knew the simple reason for all her display of tears, after I had worn out my brain trying to imagine mysterious tales of the Edgar Allan Poe type, and had. decided to abandon forever my career as a famous detective. What was the reason? Why simply this—she had tried out for the operetta and had been accepted for the part on condition that she perfect her ability to weep suddenly and effectively. Believing that practice makes perfect, she had availed herself of every op- 1 $ot it! portunity lo practice. All her efforts at home being met with laughter and jeers, she improved the minutes she could snatch at school. It just happened, of course, that I came upon her in her attempts. She certainly deserved the part in the play, for Don and I hold her weeping would have deceived even Sherlock Holmes or baffled Craig Kennedy himself. Charlotte Calvert.

With apologies to Mamie Mutts. JUST ONE MORE FAILURE Pard is fat and I am lean, but we made excellent partners—up to a certain point. The only trouble was that we were not over successful in our several attempts to get hold of a little U. S. currency. Out West, after we had proved our right to a strip of apparently good oil land, the oil wells on it gave out and we were left with a suit of $2,500 to pay. Down South just when we had a fine comer on shingles with traffic all tied up, some fool went and flooded the market with a lot of last year’s shingles. So we didn’t make any cash out of that either. And so it went from one thing to another. Pard lost faith in me, but I got him to try one more thing—burglarizing. Now Pard and I never had much training at burglary. I think Pard once stole ten cents from his dancing partner to pay car-fare with, and I once stole Pa’s switch to prevent future trips to the woodshed. Anyway, we were desperate now; so we stocked up in things a burglar would naturally use. Pard had his father's old flint lock revolver. He said it was for protection, but I have never seen it go off except once when Pard's sister threw it into the fire. Then we got two flashlights, two skeleton keys, a small jimmy and three pounds of gun powder. Oh. yes, then we got a first-aid kit in case we should ever get banged up. We never used it. To pay for all this, we had to pawn two Inger-soll watches, two pipes, a watch chain, three jack-knives, an umbrella, and two old pairs of specs. Out of all this, we got just the necessary ten dollars. Anyway, we felt we were prepared. The object of our first burglary was the home of Mrs. Welltodo in the little town of Mill-on-Ares. down in southern Arkansas. The names sounded favorable. We knew that Mrs. Welltodo got-back from all her social affairs rather early, about ten o'clock, I believe. We also knew that the servants staid down stairs and had gay times while their mistress was away. We got all this information through Pard who sidled up to one of Mrs. Welltodo’s pretty young maids, and. in the process of getting acquainted with her, learned the before-mentioned facts. He afterwards admitted that it wasn’t all his interest in the partnership that made him do it We planned to enter the rear door by force about nine o’clock. This would leave us about an hour’s leeway before Mrs. Welltodo got back; and. although Pard had not found out where the valuables were kept, we figured we’d find them before ten o'clock. The maids would be out of the way, and we thought we could walk off with the jewels just as easy as—well, at least we thought we could. So much for our well laid plans. At nine o’clock one night when we knew that no one could be in the way, we wandered slowly up the street towards Mrs. Welltodo's house. No, we weren’t exactly in a hurry, but both of us felt we had started something we had to finish—in jail or at Palm Beach. We felt as one does on a frosty January mom with the thermometer staring through the window registering ten below and with a tub full of cold water waiting, just waiting, that's all. At any rate we didn’t feel like throwing out ten dollars worth of tools without even trying to use them. As I said, we strolled slowly up to the back door. We could see lights down stairs where evidently the maids were having a good time. Pard said something to the effect that lights did not mean to him “nobody around in the way.” I told him to cheer up and throw a little hot water on his feet and come along. Of course I was given the job of jimmying open the back door—Mrs. Welltodo never trusted her jewels, even with someone in the house, without locking up. I was kneeling, working the jimmy, and Pard was standing behind holding the flashlight. Once I thought I heard a posse of police but when I turned shakily I found out that it was only Pard’s heart getting a little beyond control. I told him to throttle it down a little and I guess-he did—anyway 1 didn't hear much more from him except complaints and wishes that he had never entered the game. We were never destined to jimmy that door open anyway. One of the maids, happening up stairs, saw the flashlight and thought it was the porch light. Just like a woman, I think—a man would never have taken a little flashlight for a big porchlight. Of course she pushed the button and so turned on the porchlight. There we were, kneeling in front of the door and flooded with light. If actors feel as we did then when they are in the spot-light, I pity them. I thought she would run, but she didn’t; she just walked straight to the door, opened it, and looked at us. I fumbled with the apparatus behind my back and looked as unconcerned as I could, while Pard, not wishing tor an introduction, mumbled something about a previous engagement and hastened elsewhere. You see he had not lost all of his early refinement. The girl started to tell me how the pipe in the kitchen had sprung a leak and how she had called the plumbers—that explained how brave she was in coming to the door. She thought we were the plumbers. We had to act now. I finally collected my wits enough to suggest, rather hesitatingly, that we hunt for my knife—I was just trying to explain Pard’s and my actions before the maid came out. Then I remembered Pard. I had my brains working by now and so yelled at the top of my lungs, “Hey, Pard, bring the monkey-wrench.’’ He had heard what the girl said and had stayed around the comer to await the result. He came, holding his hands behind his back as though he had the wrench. Well, of course we couldn't find the knife and so I told the girl that I would charge it to the dust and let the rain settle it. She went into the house first and I followed. I went last in order to avoid trouble in leaving the place— I didn't want to have to stumble over any fat Pard Wilkins in case of a sudden necessary exit. We finally got to the kitchen and pretended to examine the leaky pipe. I sat on an old chest that happened to be there and contemplated the leak. It was leaking fast and there was no wav in our power to stop it. Furthermore, we wanted an excuse for departure. So I told the girl to get a screwdriver ,as we had left ours down to the shop. I fancied she wouldn’t find it very soon. Pard was for immediate exit. He stormed about my getting him into the scrape, but that didn’t help any. I was for telling the girl we had forgotten another important tool and hence must return to the shop. This was a good reason for departure and it was adopted unanimously by all parties concerned. Meanwhile the water from the leak kept rising and rising; we hated to leave the kitchen in such a state—or at least to try to. Just as we had decided on our reason for departure. a ring came at the door. The real plumbers had arrived and were admitted. luckily, by a different maid than the one who had admitted us. Pard said afterwards that it was unlucky, not lucky, that it was a different maid. As soon as we realized the identity of these worthy industrial pirates, we made desperate attempts to reach regions remote from that particular kitchen. The only trouble was that there didn’t seem to be any remote regions. The best we could do was dive for the chest on which I was sitting. We didn't quite fit in there when the cover was down; but, for some reason—probably the maid who had mistaken flashlights for porchlights and burglars for plumbers, had charge of that chest the cover opened from the wall and so, even if we did raise the free end about two inches, no one would notice it. In regard to the maid, I want to say that I can see some resemblance between a plumber and a burglar, but her other mistake was inexcusable. There wasn’t anything in the chest, except a little water—just enough to encircle our feet comfortably. We didn’t stop for that, though. I tried to think I was al-teady at Palm Beach enjoying a nice warm dip; but it was no go. Instead, for some unaccountable reason, the word rheumatism kept taking the place of Palm Beach in my mind. Pard said something about being so darned particular about getting an excuse for a necessary and hasty departure, and from that I gathered that he also was uncomfortable. But just a little cold water from a leaky pipe was not bad at all when I think of what was in store for us.. Well, there we were cooped up in a leaky box in a puddle and with the lid nailed down by the presence of those confounded plumbers. Of course they set all their tools and materials on the box. and I can tell you a pile of lead and steel isn’t the lightest thing in the world.—nor is it the heaviest as we were soon to leam. We were now not only nailed up in a leaky box by the presence of some plumbers but we were actually nailed in by some fifty pounds of lead and steel both trying to reach the floor through the cover of the box and our unresisting bodies. Poe’s “Tell-tale Heart that I heard about in eighth grade had nothing on us. fearing we should soon be filled with lead instead of merely having it sitting contentedly on top of us. But, as I said, lead isn’t the heaviest thing. After the plumbers had finished,—they had drained the floor but not our box; for the joints had swelled shut and our ark was no longer leaky;—Mrs. Welltodo came in to give the maid a lecture for having called the plumbers without her permission. She too would probably have taken a flashlight for a porchlight. Well, the main thing is that she chose our chest for a seat. I can tell you right npw that Mrs. Welltodo is no lean person. Pard and I tried desperately to contract those necessary two inches to allow the cover to rest on the box-sides instead of on us, but we failed. If I limp a little from rheumatism and look a little lopsided, you know why. Well, after about three days, everyone went to bed and we crawled out, dripping but still desperate. We weren’t going to go this far without getting something out of it. Our ten dollars worth of tools was lost and so were we. I let Pard go first so he’d have first chance at the booty. Suddenly he stopped and I saw just ahead a black shadow outlined against the window. It looked most suspiciously like a dog,—a bulldog. I was confirmed in this belief by a sudden movement of the shadow, by Pard’s jumping to one side, and by a stinging feeling in my left leg. Putting my hand down to the leg, I found some- thing missing from my trousers. I could see the shadow moving toward Pard and I knew it was a dog. I kicked him and aroused in him a puppy-et play,—all music and no acting. I could hear noises up stairs as of a host rising out of bed as one. I surmised it was time to depart, but not without one last effort. I grabbed Pard’s dripping figure with one hand and groped along the sideboard with the other. Ah. a brooch, a knife, and a pile of coins were the result. At last, returns for our trouble 1 Nothing less than solid silver would grace Mrs. Welltodo's table, nothing but the best jewelry satisfy her, and nothing but large coins do for money,—the pile of coins must be all twenty dollar gold pieces. Alas for hopes. After I had shoved Pard, protesting against ill-usage, through the door, which luckily was locked with a spring lock, and had come to a street light beyond the hue and cry of Mrs. Welltodo screaming after the murderer of her dear little Pinky Toes—bah. Pinky Toes for a bulldog—I made a sad discovery. The knife was a steel kitchen knife, the brooch a gaudy brass one that probably belonged to one of the maids, and the coins.—ah, worst cut of all—. parts to a tiddle-de-wink game. I had groped along the kitchen side of the sideboard. Pard was hopping mad; he left. I haven’t seen him since. As he went dripping up the street. I turned to the depot. Did I say this was our first burglary? Yes. and it was also the last. Ten dollars gone to waste. Oh, well! Philip Dowling. 73 MADISON HIGH Our hopes, our hearts are all with thee.

SOCIAL LIFE The first social event of fhe year, another one of those brilliant senior ideas, was a Senior Party for the Freshmen. Our worthy class president, Ben Gurney, welcomed the Freshmen in a most fatherly way, reminding them how their mammas and papas had sent them here to prepare them for the big wide world. Fatherlike, he told them that, were his sage advice followed, a mighty class, surpassed only by that of ’17. would arise. After the Senior-Freshmen party, the days sped quickly by, and, almost before we knew it, the Halloween Party, with its dancing ghosts and skeletons and stunts that made the boys' carefully combed pompadours stand up straight, was here and over with. Yes, the Freshmen-Senior party was lovely, and we shall all remember the clever takeoffs and the gypsies of the Halloween party; but these events served only as a pleasing introduction to the jolly Christmas Frolic, the All-Club Supper, and the successful spring parties. , Did we dance at the Christmas party? We did! and the music never seemed mer-lier, or the company gayer. But that wasn't all, for we had beautiful tableaux, Christmas carols, and, best of all, a great big Christmas tree with a real Santa Claus. Oh, we can never forget that Christmas party! The All-Club supper was also very successful this year. The peppy toasts, coupled with Martin Hein’s jokey jokes, made us forget that we really could' have eaten more, and we were dismayed when Mr. Barnes said it was time to go home. The boys, this year, were rather chagrined when they really understood that the girls had had one of the best parties ever, without them. The girls refuse to disclose any secrets regarding the wonderful success of their party, but all hope that the good time will be repeated next year. This year the juniors certainly proved that they are fast obtaining the proficiency of their elder brothers, the seniors, by giving two parties, one for the sophomores and one for the seniors. Both were delightful. Between these more or less elaborate social features, sprinkled here and there were the long-to-be-remembered matinee dances. Here, under the spell of ten-cent music, with an occasional bump or shove, we forgot the eight long periods of school and saw even the teachers treading mbrrily to the tune of Poor Butterfly or Oh, Johnny! We are all looking forward with hopeful expectation to the Senior Banquet and the Commencement Dance, realizing that they will form a fitting ending to the unparalleled success of the social year. And when it is all over, when the last decoration is taken from the gymnasium, we shall realize, if we have not before, the immense satisfaction gained from this social element, and shall say, May the social activities in M. H. S. continue to broaden until every pupil is a democratic partaker of this pleasant part of high school life. Marguerite Schultz. 17. MADISON-BELOIT-JANESVILLE TRIANGLE Luther Salsman Higgins Thompson Ayhvard Mr. Slocum Marvin MADISON-BARABOO-EDGERTON TRIANGLE Coxon Gurney Kayser Bollcnbcck Hein Mr. Slocum Hansen DEBATING All in all, debating this year has been a decided success. Through graduation last year many of our best men were lost to us; but these vacancies were soon filled, and through Mr. Slocum’s excellent coaching we were ably represented in two triangular debates. On February 26, at Janesville, John Salsman, Donald Marvin, and John Higgins did their bit for their country by solving the question of whether the United States should join with the A. B. C. powers in a league for the enforcement of peace. Our team argued that there should be no such league and incidentally ran off with the decision, two to one. Melvin Luther, John Thompson, and Arthur Alyward remained here to fight out the same question with Beloit, but, unfortunately, failed to convince the judges. The other debate in this triangle, between Beloit and Janesville, resulted in a unanimous victory for Beloit. Thus, while every negative team won, the championship went to Beloit. The other triangle included Madison, Baraboo, and Edgerton. On March 23, Bara-boo came to convince us that America should not own and operate her own railroads; but this time the visiting team met its fate at the hands of Roman Bollenbeck, Thomas Coxon, and Ben Gurney. At the same time Madison’s negative team, Martin Hein, Paul Kay-ser, and Raymond Hansen, journeyed to Edgerton to debate the same question. In spite of a splendid fight, our boys secured one vote too few. Edgerton’s negative also lost to Baraboo by a two to one decision, so that the debates ended in a tie all around. We have high hopes for next year since there will be left to the school at least six veteran debaters, all of whom are exceptionally capable. The announcement June 3rd, that interscholastic debaters are to be awarded recognition in the form of an official pin, forms the culmination of an effort lasting for several years to place Madison with other schools in this respect As a result, not only will there be better material available for the teams, but debating will be given a deciJed impetus as a school activity worthy of appreciation and support. • 1 i AN HONOR ROLL Valedictorian _ __ Salutatorian __ Class Orator Ivy Day Orator _ Class Historian __ Class Prophet Advice to Juniors _ __ HONOR ROLL IN SCHOLARSHIP Lydia Hunt _______ _ 94.5 Gladys Green _ 94 Philip Dowling __ 94 • Alice Meidell 93.3 Charlotte Calvert __ __ 93 Sada Buckmaster _ 92.4 Charlotte O'Malley _ _ 92.4 Mabel Winter 92.3 Robert Coxon 92 Mabelle Hoyt 92 Margaret Lang _ ____ 92 Emma Mueller _ __ 92 Helen Olsen 92 Helen Roth 92 Ada Wilcox Eleanor Cox 91.6 Ray Hansen 91.2 Frances-Ellen Tucker 91 Thelma Johnson _ 91 Merrill Goddard, __ 90.5 Ora Olson _ _ _ _ 90.5 Julia Hanks 90.2 Adeline Ashcroft __ 90 Ellen Beane 90 Florence Bradley 90 Mabel Gregg 90 Ben Gurney 90 Jeanette Hutchins _ _ 90 Marie Metz __ 90 90 i THE ATHLETIC BOARD To stimulate interest in athletics by giving the students a voice in managing them, was the purpose of the Athletic Board, which was formed during the past year. The board was composed of seven members,—four from the faculty, and three from the student body. Each of the three student members was elected as the manager of one of the three teams. His duties were to aid in contracting schedules, to help take care of financial matters, and to assume the duties that ordinarily fall upon a manager. John Salsman was elected football manager. Alfred Marks, basketball manager, and Kendall Dexter, manager of the track team. The faculty members were Mr. Crispin, chairman. Mr. West, Mr. Walker, and Mr. Graven. BASEBALL 1916 Contrary to its proverbial popularity in America, baseball in the Madison High School was not heralded with the enthusiasm usual in the early years of the sport. This lack of interest we may safely attribute to the poor athletic field. In spite of this handicap, the class of 1917 began the season with unusual vigor and gameness. The season was shortened, but the games made up in spirit what they lacked in numbers. The Sophomores bid hard for the Championship, but it was an extraordinary year for the Seven-teeners. Closing a hard fought season with a close victory over the Sophomores, they added one more championship to the short, but well earned group of Seventeen’s athletic honors. Juniors____ Sophomores Seniors Freshmen _ w. L Pet. 4 0 1,000 3 1 730 1 3 250 0 4 000 Tenney Park is a lovely place,—for some things. Its gravel walks, however, are certainly not ideal tracks on which to train for a race to be run on a cinder path. In spite of this handicap. Coach Crispin turned out a successful team from the faithful few who reported for practice last spring. After a few weeks of stiff training, five of our men journeyed down-state to participate in the Beloit Meet. They acquitted themselves nobly and succeeded in winning a place. When they returned the squad immediately began to prepare for the Ripon Meet. We sent more men to this meet than to the first, and consequently fared a little better. Although we took places in both of these meets, our star had not yet reached its zenith. At the Interscholastic Meet, a meet in which the fastest teams of the state were entered, Ernie Warnecke displayed unusual sprinting ability and captured first honors in both the 100 and 220 yard dashes. The rest of the fellows all did their bit very well and helped to land our team in fourth place. So we considered the season of 1916 a very successful one in the history of trapk activities. MERLE E. JACKSON, 18. Practice began in earnest on September 5. The first hot weeks of practice were indeed effective in melting surplus weight from the sweating, panting M. H. S. football squad. A large squad and prospects for a heavy line looked promising, but a light and inexperienced backfield did not. A plunging backfield man was yet to be found. Woe be to the Norwegians from Stoughton for beating us 12 to 0 on September 30. Two weeks later we boarded the slow train to Portage at 7:45 a. m. arriving in time for dinner. We tacked twenty-one nails in our scoring post and held Portage to no score. The Waukesha game. October 21, resulted in a tie, 3—3. October 28, we fought our 106 ancient and hereditary enemy, Oshkosh, on their field. The odds were too much against us, however, and we were beaten by a 6-0 score. In this game we uncovered a man whom we can truly call Plunging Red Maher. During the next week, just for practice, Coach Anderson’s eleven of Stoughton came up in automobiles and returned via the ambulance. On November 4, Richland Center came from their land of sandburs. We added twenty-five more nails to our scoring post and satisfied R. C. with six. The next week the La Crosse giant team sent a shudder through the audience, already shuddering with cold, but not through us, the team. La Crosse out-weighed us 20 pounds per man, and so we were beaten I 5-0; but they had to work for their victory. At least seventeen men will remember the next week of practice in snow and cold. But it had to be done, and was done, for the next Saturday we had to play Beloit. This game, the second tie of the season, ended in a 7-7 score. It was, from the standpoint of the team, the most enjoyable game of the season. In this game Kibo Brumm, substitute for Warnecke at center, proved his ability and gave promise of being a regular Fighting Joe Hooker next year. The season ended with two games won by good scores, three lost by small scores, and two at par value. The principal weakness of the team was the inability of the backfield end the line to work smoothly together. Here is hoping good old M. H. S. will have better success next year. Leo LlPPERT. M. H.

When the first call for candidates was issued, a sadly small number reported for practice. In a short time, however, enthusiasm increased and competition became keener. But alas! Old Mr. Weather Man stepped into the game. Thinking it would be good sport to sec the fellows wallow around in the mud. he sent some cold, drizzling fall rains. But the boys showed grit, and so. dipping and sliding in the sticky, gray mud of Brittingham Park, they battled heroically on. It was impossible, however, to play all of the games scheduled. The Sophs came out on top, taking both of the two games played. I here was some very good material on the class teams, as was proved by the fact that one evening an all-class team trimmed the regulars by an 18 to 6 score. Class football was not a brilliant success this year, but the prospects for next year arc brighter. Merle E. Jackson. 18.

Practically all of last year’s team had been lost by graduation, and Madison’s chances for basketball honors looked pretty slim. But even if the candidates lacked experience, th?y had a good coach and plenty of fighting spirit, and this combination proved to be irresistible. The first game was played with Beloit on Beloit’s floor. Madison walloped Beloit to the tune of 25 to 14 and returned home heroes. At La Crosse. Portage, and Janesville, the results may be well summed up by the expression. ‘‘I came, I saw, I conquered.” Richland Center invaded Madison for the first game our boys played on the home floor. At the close of the game, Richland Center went home to hang crepe on the door of their high school. Beloit, Portage, Waukesha, La Crosse, and Janesville all fell before the perfect clockwork of our team. At the La Crosse game, a team of individual stars was pitted against a team of individual cogs all working as a single unit. The value of team work was clearly evidenced by the final score of 12 to 9 with Madison on the long end. At the end of the schedule, Madison boasted a clear record and a thousand percent team. As a result, the team won a trip to the tournament at Whitewater to play for the championship of this section of the state. Brodhead and Whitewater were easily vanquished. and Madison met Edgerton for the title. But now. gentle reader, prepare to weep, for the painful truth must be told. Madison played its best and lost 12 to 14. Of course we still maintain that Madison was the best team in the state and should have won. But Madison had already played the two best teams in the tournament outside of Edgerton. while Edgerton had practiced on second string teams. Thus, in the crucial game, our men were handicapped by having to play a much fresher team. Be that as it may, it can’t be helped now; so let’s forget it. Madison will lose only one player by graduation this year, and, as there are many candidates for that position, next year’s team ought to be the best Madison has ever turned out. —John Thompson, T 8.

Something new this year was a roughneck' practice—an original idea of our coach, Garry Blied. In this style of practice about twenty-five players line up on each side of the basketball floor, each side shooting for the opposite basket. The only resemblance this has to a basketball game is that the same style of ball is used, and the game is started by the customary centers. When the ball is once in motion, an onlooker could not tell whether the performance were a baketball game, a strike riot, or a suffrage meeting. After a few minutes of such play, the floor is cleared and the janitors carry out the remains of the players in wheelbarrows. The juniors won the championship, but they were obliged to fight for it every inch of the way. They were defeated twice,—once by the sophomores and once by the seniors. The freshmen, due to a lack of candidates to choose from, proved to be the weakest contenders. The final game was played between the sophomores and juniors for the championship. The second year men went down fighting gamely to the last; and thus ended the most successful season in the history of class basketball. —John Thompson. 18.

Up to the time of the final whistle in the decisive Junior-Senior game, the Juniors held high hopes of the championship. The underclassmen played well. too. The Sophs deserve much credit for they played fine ball and showed splendid team work. The Freshmen have shown good spirit and promise splendid material for the next three years. The season, considered as a whole, was one of the peppiest we have had. Every game was a good one, and, no matter which side won, the opposite side was a mighty good loser. May the next year's champions be as fine and deserving winners, and as good sports” when they are losers.

JAMES A WRECK ROOM TAKEN OFF GUARD, MANY KIDDED AND WOUNDED. The War Whoop la In no respect a continuation of the Stratford Gazette. We have taken over that paper and now Issue In Its place a greatly Improved journal. We claim to be the beat paper In the world today. We do not tire our readers with daily or even weekly issues. In one number we give the gist of the news of tho year. The War Whoop is In every way a patriotic paper. We are In favor of conscription, provided we are not drafted, and we have backed the forming of a Madison High School Cadet Corps to the limit, though wo have not joined It. We stand firmly against the borrowing of civilian's shoes by the cadets who go on hikes. Our patriotism is fully displayed by the flags which adorn our collars and our building. We believe In dress reform and insist that loud socks, superfluous hair constructions, and chiffon waists should be abolished. We stand for the building of the Panama Canal, for backyard gardens, for taxation of large Incomes, and for a six period day. In conclusion, we wish again to impress the public with the excellence of the War Whoop. The artistic appearance of its pages and the high principles for which It stands make our effort a perfect masterpiece. The public Is sure to receive it with open arms. MYSTERY IN HIGH SCHOOL! At the close of the twenty minute period today, the peace was suddenly disturbed by the loud ringing of a oow-bell. The HIGH SCHOOL DISPENSER OF GEOGRAPHICAL KNOWLEDGE INVOLVED IN MYSTERY. The Inhabitants of the Madison High School were today greatly shocked by the appearance of Mr. Henry James wrapped In bandages and disfigured almost beyond recognition. The reason for this Is not yet fully known. It is rumpred that some deep secret cause underlies the mystery. Mr. James Is not married; nor does he chew, smoke, or drink, having as inquiry shows, but few bad habits. He was observed yesterday in company with a lady, but whether this has any bearing on the case is difficult to arcertain. He was seen skating with Miss Loomis for three days in succession, and it is thought that this strenuous exercise may have something to do with his present plight. sound came from tho vicinity of the office. The students rushed into the corridors, but no sign of the cow who bore the bell could be found. Investigation was made in all parts of the building, but it was fruitless. Various conjectures were made, but these did little to clear the mystery. John Mader stoutly affirmed that the noise was not the ringing of a bell, but was caused by the propping of a doughnut in the domestic science room. Ernest Warnecke argued that a pretzel would be more apt to make such a noise. Detectives Coxon and Wald were summoned, and have begun Investigation. It Is expected that the mystery will soon be solved. Over thirty lessons were killed and more than twenty seriously wounded when General Disorder raldod and completely captured room 101 today during the twenty-minute period. Entirely off its guard, the ro m was attacked from the north-dast corner. The slaughter and blood-shed that followed have never been paralleled in the history of tho M. H. 8. Tho pathetic groans of the wounded and dying were the most heartrending ever known. Little resistance could be offered against the terrific sweep of the enemy. Many noble deeds, however, wero performed. The most striking of these was committed by a Virgil lesson, which fell a victim after fighting bravely between life and death. Oonerfcl Sell, needless to say, was not on duty at the time of the assault. This was undoubtedly the chief cause of the enormous murder. The General will probably be shot at sunrise for neglect of duty. The ambulance corps, headed by President Barnes, arrived too late to prevent the catastrophe. However, he delivered the proper first aid to the wounded. Miss 8ellery of the Red Cross 8oclety arrived a few minutes later. Her soothing words, added to her. remarkable doctor's skill, cased many of the dying. HERR STUCKERT TOWS REVENGE!! A very dramatic scene took place Immediately after the battle. when Herr Von Stuckert, General of the German fortress, stood erect, gazing over the bloody field. With unflinching eye, he viewed the scene for a few moments, then drawing his sword and brandishing it In the (Continued on page 2 column 2) 2 THE WAR WHOOP, JUNE 11, 1917 THE WAR WHOOP VOLUME XVII NUMBER 17 Terras: “Read, and in the substance thou shalt find—nothing.” Editor-in-Chlef—Martin N.Hein Assistant Article Mutilators: Sadie Buckmaster Bob Holcombe Ben Gurney Warren Haigh HIGH TIDE IN THE VALE OF SLEEP Feb. 25. 1917. The inmates of 212 were entertained today during the' twenty minute period In a most unique manner. It happened In the following way: The radiator failed to furnish the amount of heat necessary for a proper sleeping temperature, so Sir Charles Hollatz was summoned to the rescue. Up he came, looked at the offender. and said. How can you expect it to get hot when everything is clogged up?” Wo hadn't expected it to get hot— no wo never expect tho unusual. In order to eradicate the trouble. Sir Charles began forthwith to unscrew tho radiator cap. when lo and behold, up spurted myriads of water, accompanied by clouds of steam, which afforded a most realistic imitation of a geyser. Cries of approbation rose from all parts of tho room, showing the extreme delight of the Inmates. So we say. Give us another, Charley, we need the diversion.” You may talk about your geysers You may talk about your lakes Hut you cannot beat the geysers That our Charley Hollatz makes. THIRTY KILLED IN BATTLE! (Continu'd from page I, column 3) bright sunlight, ho cried, Before the sun tomorrow shall the horizon meet. Revenge I Vow!” Saluting, he marched from the field. SPECIAL MEETING OF THE SENATORS!! There was great consternation in the office when the report of the battle was heard. A special meeting of tho senators was called to decide upon drastic measures. With bowed heads the gray headed Senators and Senatoresses listened to President Barnes's outline of the grave situation. He asked that full power be given him in the crisis. This was granted. When the Senators left the room, many were weeping bitterly. The aged gray-haired Senator ltlner i was able to be at the meeting. INVESTIGATION STARTED. An investigation committee was appointed to find out. if possible, the methods of the attack and from whence it came. It is now generally thought thut the battle began somewhere near Ed. Riley's desk. The committee will begin investigation here. SOCIETY Jan. 30. 1917. The Silas Hicks Memorial Checker Club met at the home of Bernard Huebner last evening. Among those present were Ray Chandler. Arthur Van Vel-zer and George Harris. After a short business meeting, a literary and musical program was held. Bernard Huebner recited Curfew Shall Not Ring Tonight to the enjoyment of all. Ray Chandler and Art Van Vel-zer played a duet. Old Dog Tray, on tho pianola and fiddle. They were accompanied by Geo. Hurris on a mouth organ. After •the program a delicious luncheon. consisting of doughnuts and cider, was served. During the refreshments, an informal discussion on tho death of Deacon Gidding's cow took place, together with other late topics of the day. After several games of checkers the club adjourned, owing to the fact that it was al- PIE RATS OF PENZAZZA PIRATES OF PENZANCE A HOWLING SUCCESS! The operetta, The Pirates of Penzance.” was in every way a howling success. Even the audience howled. The attendants at the operetta were somewhat disappointed because the premier singer of the evening, S da Buckmaster, was unable to participate In the murder. Special credit is due the orchestra who favored us with Its other piece. Through the noble efforts of Howard Shepard. Bernard Huebner was able to emit a few inarticulate sounds during the performance. Howard handed Bernard a lemon, thereby saving the audience that trouble. Tho curtain parted at 8:15 bringing before our eyes a group of men with evil-appearing countenances—The Pirates of Penzance. We have to hand it to Merrill Goddard, he’s sure some chieftain. We would suggest. however, that he tack his whiskers on his chin instead of on his upper lip. Maybe his voice wouldn't bo so hazy. Our own durling, Ixniitz Melchor, was present in full force. Esther McKcnnan was nothing backward when it camo to hitting the high spots. And the cops would have done full justice to any of the Keystone's comedy reserve forces. They were tho main stay, the nucleus around which the success of the play was built. All we would say for Herr Stumpf is Where did you get that hat?” Art Van Velzer is a bass singer, but neveVtheless. a good one. Miss Brewer would make an ideal pirate's daughter. Much credit is due Miss Cooper and Miss Menaul for drilling the cast in such a short time. Much credit is also due a certain group of boys who showed a marked Improvement in behavior over their deportment at the play last year. ready nine o'clock and far past bed time. The next meeting is to be held at the home of Mr. Chandler when the question, Resolved, that cows can be fed more cheaply on silage than on timothy,” shall be debated. 3 THE WAR WHOOP. JUNE 11, 1917 120 VACATED February 23. 1917. Great was the lamentation on this eventful day. It marked the end of the prosperity of room 120, for Mr. West, finding: his quarters here had become undesirable, decided to move to his old abodo in 104. As is usual with a man of family, his children accompanied him. Thus was the fume of that well known room shattered at a blow, and given to the habitation of children who stood but on the second rung of our school ladder. So grcut was the grief of the former Inmates, thut a coflln was constructed (probably by Mervln Flom) to symbolize the death of prosperity in this room. This coffin, after much ceremony, was placed In a conspicuous part of the room. Mr. Barnes, as usual, graced the occasion with a few. appropriate remarks, which remarks, we are sorry to say. have been deleted by our censor. But the ex-members of room 120 have already laid their plans for the future. They are determined to make 104 the most famous of all rooms in the school.

Selected as Execulor and Trustee by Many Thoughtful People ot Means MANY persons of wealth and influence and well qualified to judge of fitness, have named the Central Wisconsin Trust Company in their wills as Executor and Trustee. This indicates a very high degree of confidence, because it means committing to the Company’s management interests held in the highest valuation—the interests of family and other heirs. Whether your estate is to be large or of only moderate size, you can not better assure its careful administration in the best interests of your heirs, than by having your lawyer write this Company into your will as Executor and Trustee. If your will has been written without this provision, the omission may be corrected by a codicil.
