The president of the senior class, the president of the Athletic Association, the school treasurer, the manager of athletics, and the editor-in-chief of the Annual were not included in the Board as senior heads as they are now. The first year the Board was unable to do much as it was not organized until late in the year, but each year since it has helped Maine to make many improvements in the school life. The Maine Board is composed of 'two boards, the financial board, and the board of control. The financial board is made up of three committees: Cal entertainments, Cbj Annual, Ccj athletics. The committees on the board of control are: Cal amusement, Cbl order, Ccj school morale. Each committee is made up of a senior head, who is chosen by the faculty advisers 'of the senior and junior classes and the principal, a senior assistant, and three junior helpers, who are chosen by the junior and senior sponsors, the principals, and the six senior heads. All the members of the Maine Board wear small pins which show that each has authority to carry out the duties for which he was elected.

Miller and Mrs. McLean, as faculty advisers. In its sophomore year Robert Longley, Vera Klintz, Dorothy Chesterman, and Hugh Carroll held the offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer. Mr. McKinnon and Miss Ruh were the advisers. Directed by Miss Lund, the class produced the first newspaper ever published at Maine, and called it The Sophomore Cometn. Lawrence Longley, Marjorie Allen, Eugene Starner, and Agnes Durham, as president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, guided the fortunes of the junior year. Among the stars of the class were Ralph Merrill and Bud Carroll, who made their place on the swimming team. Bob Longley and Paul Sieber played on the basketball teams, and Norma Nelson had a leading part in the Pirates of Penzance . Mr. Foster and Miss Lewerenz were our advisers. Throughout this last year Arthur Behrens, Agnes Durham, Paul Sieber, and Vera Klintz have enjoyed the gaze of the public. Miss Lewerenz and Mr. Butts were aids and abettors in all the perpetrations of this, the most capable of classes. For proof of our leadership at Maine, for evidence of our service to our fellow students, you have only to look at the names of those who compose the staffs for the Annual and the Pioneer, the football, basketball, swimming, baseball and track teams. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF1924 We, the graduating class of 1924, of Maine Township High School, County of Cook, and State of Illinois, being of sound and disposing mind and memory, and considering the uncertainty of this life, and being desirous of settling our worldly affairs while we have strength and capacity to do so, do make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking all other wills that we have made. First: We bequeath to the freshman our inherent faculty for going in the hole, Second: We bequeath the literary editor's job to any goof who's dumb enough to take it, Third: We bequeath to Miss Chapman the privilege of extracting from future scribes, the next annual, Fourth: We bequeath to the juniors the privilege of using one year from now, the title The best class that ever graduated, Fifth: To the coming seniors we leave our ability as chemistry students, Sixth: Certain individuals wish to bequeath to their friends these general gifts, I, Robert Longley-the faculty for getting away with it to Russell Hecliger, 2, Helen Behmiller-her many sweaters to supply the basketball team with attractive sweat shirts, 3 Kenneth Knabb-his sleek pompadour to Keats Longley, 4 Agnes Durham-her interest in the junior class to the highest bidder, 5, Marjorie Allen-her avoirdupois and her giggle to Helen Gillick, 6 7 Mary Leyns-her Cassidyan drag to Clodagh Hefti, Mary Whitcomb-her pass key to Helen Courtney so she won't have to bother Maine Board heads next year, rl 'l' H lfl Q l' I L L 39 TL!

THE QUILL 47 JUNIOR HISTORY September 6, 1921, was the beginning of an illustrious year for Maine. Why? Because we freshies appeared on the scene with the resolution to be the pep- piestu class in the history of Maine. And we succeeded in carrying out our re- solution. Early in the year we held our first class meeting, electing as officers: KEATS LONGLEY .... President RUTH MEYER . Vice-President HARRY SPENCE . . . . Secretary BAR SUSTER ..... Treaxurer Miss MELVIN AND MR. MCGRATH . . Sponsor: In athletics Frank Eash, Wilbur Baning, Claude Merrill and Harry Spence made places for themselves. VVhen we returned as sophs in ,22 we were greatly diminished in numbers but not in pepn. In fact we were even livelier than the year before. We elected as officers: GRACE HEESCH . . Prerident NELLIE EDWARDSON . . Vice-Prerident BETTY FABIAN . . . Secretary KEATS LONGLEY . . Treaxurer Miss LUND AND MR. SHADE Sponrorr On September 30, we gave the freshmen a hearty welcome in the gym and presented each with a candy dumbbell. Later, on February 17, we gave a Sophomore Mixer . The gym was decorated with hearts and red crepe paper. Our class members were more numerous in athletics than in the previous year and some of our boys won letters. On the football team, Harry Spence, VVilbur Baning and Bar Suster represented us, while basketball claimed Frank Eash, Wilbur Baning and Bar Suster. In swimming, Claude Merrill, Frank Eash, Leonard Calvert, Daniel Cates, and Harvey Talcott made the team. ln ,23 we returned a wiser, if a smaller, class for we had two years' experience to profit by.

There were about one hundred and seventy-five in our freshman class-the largest that had ever entered Maine, I went on to tell her. Some came from Wheeling, but the majority from Park Ridge and Des Plaines' Old Maine opened her doors to us on September fifth, and we freshmen, with fear and trembling, entered to begin hard, honest work. The first week slipped by and another followed, and still we were the cause of much merriment, for we had not yet become accustomed to the ways of the upper classmen. At last it was decided that we were to have a class meeting for the purpose of electing class officers and sponsors. We elected-wait until I can find my old annual so that I can tell you just whom we did elect for it has been quite a few years since that noisy meeting. It was the year of IQ23'-YCS, here it is, and I find that Dorothy Emmerich was elected president, Sam Purves, vice-president, Harold Griebel, secretary, and Harold Grimberg, treasurer. Our class sponsors were Miss Gray and Mr. Fisher. Next came the Freshman Welcome on the twenty-ninth of September, given by the sophomores. The party opened with a grand march, followed by games and dancing. The sophs certainly showed us a good time and we felt more welcome at Maine after that. Weeks passed and Christmas approached. This meant the selling of Christ- mas seals, and it was decided to have a contest to see which class could sell the most. When the contest closed, the sophs had won, but just the same, we freshmen had made them work hard to get first place. With two-hundred and twenty-two in our class, we sold 53.25 worth of seals per capita! Into athletics our class entered with much spirit. We had George Webster, Herbert Hall, Sam Purves, Arnold Crowell, Charles Crowell, Frederieh Behm and Harold Griebel to represent us in swimming, and Harvey Whetstone, in football array, looked very promising for the future. I guess that is all of much importance that happened in the freshman year, but when we returned the next September, we realized our importance as soph- omores. Our first meeting was called to elect officers and advisers. Sherman Pederson was our choice for president, George Webster, vice-president, Herbert Hall, secretary, and Sam Purves, treasurer. Miss Juanita Deringer and Mr. Fisher were our faculty advisers. This year, as it was our turn to give the Freshman Welcome, we decided to have the freshman girls dress as children, and the boys wear ties colored like the grass. These 'green' freshies entered the gym for the grand march. Prizes were given to the best dressed girls. Then we gave them a real treat! A little play, showing how moving pictures are taken and a few dance solos were given by some of the talented sophomores and freshmen. February sixteenth was probably the most eventful day the sophomore class had ever had. The gym was decked in gay colored streamers that rippled to the music of the Five Suburban Syncopators. With the help of the committees in charge of the Sophomore Balloon and Confetti Dance, the venture was carried off very well. Our sophomore class, if I do say it myself, was the liveliest that ever enjoyed the treats Old Maine gave to us. Helen and I had spent the whole afternoon recalling our high school days, until it seemed that only yesterday we had left our sophomore year at Maine. E1.o1sE TOLIN l - THE QUILL 53 Ladies and gentlemen, students and non-students, lend your eyes for one moment to the special feature page for the sophs . By hard work and a great expenditure of energy, Cdid you ever think they could'?J the sophomores sold the largest number of pledges for this Annual, and their reward was this page. The person who sold the largest number of pledges in the winning team was Grace Ziehn. Grace sold about seventy pledges. Marjorie Hand was next, selling about fifty pledges. A special page was offered to the class selling most pledges for the Annual, and although the Ufreshiesi' worked hard, a sophomore canit be beat. When you're up you're upg When you're down, you're down, When ou're u against so hs , Y , P P You re upside down! GRACE Mowm' I LOVE ME Listen, my children, and you shall hear, About the Sophomore class this year,- Of how in the year of ,24 With opportunity at their door, They sought to reach a higher grade Than any other class had made. Our football team that did not win, Fought with courage, nerve and vim, Our hockey players, girlies bright, Because they practiced every night, And followed every hockey rule, Became the champions of the school. The Freshman Welcomenl 'Member, gang, How our merry voices rang Throughout the gym that festive night? We sure did yell with all our might. The freshman girlies-gingham dresses- The freshman laddies-ungreased tresses! The Feature page! We sure were glad To win the first Maineis ever had. Our agents always on the job, Would find someone in every mob, Whose wishes they could fill By selling him a Maine High Quill. We have nothing more to tell you For our years have been but few But by the time that we are Seniors- With wiser airs and grave demeanors- We know they'll Wish that there were more Like this great class called Sophomore.

By the end of the week we were beginning to feel more at home and looked upon the members of the other classes as the best friends we had. Only Freshmen though we be, You were Freshmen-once, you see. More than ever at the Freshman Welcome, where they entertained us royally, did we realize the kindly attitude of the older Maineites. We were supposed to dress as small children and the girls turned out in full array but the boys seemed to be too bashful. The girls then marched around the room and the judges picked the three best babies. They each received a little gift and returned to their doting mamas. Dancing and bunco were the chief amusements. Only naughty little Freshmen, With small knowledge of the world, But for Maine we're always ready, Standing with our flag unfurled. During September we had our class meeting and elected the following officers: ROBERT DAVIS .,.... Prerident WILLIAM LEYNS ...... Via:-Prexident GRANT JOHNSON ....... Secretary ALLEN DoUcLAss ...... Treasurer When the class of 1927 arrived, they were promptly introduced into society and athletics. They were well represented in football by Joseph Behm, Robert Davis, Lyle Parish, and Herbert Raffel, and in swimming by Alfred Taunk and Harley Truit. We're all good sports! Of course, it's true, Ask Mr. Himel And he'll tell you. And now as I close let us give three cheers and a tiger for Maine and the class of 1927. May they prosper well and be the best ever! Joszrnmiz KETCHAM JUNE June, June, June, and the tune Of the crickets throbs through the night. Through the tremulous dusk the cherry blooms Shine bewitching and mistily white. The starlight wavers, the crickets pause, And silver petals drip from the tree. The dim outlines of the garden and all The joys of the night, steal into me. A vagrant breeze like a crooning sigh Brushes my cheek as it passes by. MARY LEYNS THE QUILL - 61 EDITORIAL An editorial, to me, is like that plastic wad of sustained nourishment which the great American public so greedily craves to the extent ofa 51,000,000 a year, it is as necessary to the Annual as this gum is to the average pupil, although very few, if any, ever stop to consider or examine its content. The usual thing for the editor to do is to thoughtfully rave about the virtues of his or her school, there being no other recourse, I also, will indulge. Maine should be proud of its band of nearly IOO pieces under the exceptional directorship of Mr. Kratt, and should heartily thank the board for its unanimous endorsement of this organization. For the number of pupils in the school we have one of the largest bands in the United States, a fact to be thought of highly. This winter at a concert given by the school Mr. Kratt presented our song, Maine Old Maine , to the public. The song written by Mr. Kratt himself, both words and music, was dedicated to the Maine Township High School, and given to us by him. It received a very hearty ovation and many copies were sold immediately after the performance. Late in the fall the school adopted a seal to be used on all pins, rings, stationery, programs, etc. Ties like this serve to bind closerall classes and alumni. One of the greatest achievements of the year was that for the first time in its history, Maine published a weekly newspaper. Too much praise can not be given our swimming team under Coach Fisher, they have not lost a meet this year and have swum against some of Chicago's finest schools. The champion of the team is Ralph Merrill of the graduating class. I-Iere's hoping, for the good of Maine, his brother or someone else will swim into Ralph's discarded suit and help uphold our 100176 record next year. Mr. Fisher also coached our football eleven whose career, though very creditable, lacked the interesting success of the tankers. I'm under the impression, somehow, that somewhere around the school is or was a girls' hockey and basketball team. Being unable to see all their games I am at a loss to offer plaudits. fSee notes on girls' athletics.j Every noon Mrs. Jiencke prepares for the general comfort of the inner man with a well selected menu, but if the pupil chooses pickles and milk the inevitable catastrophe results. We were forced to drop the domestic science class this year, there being no room available. But then that isn't strange because there are several other courses lacking for the same reason. I Year before last the Honor Society had six members. Last year it had eight. The class of 324 being larger, twelve were elected to it. A more comprehensive account of this society and the Maine Board is found elsewhere in this book. My! On reading this paragraph over I rather flatter it by even hinting at its knowledge of said organizations. We know that this year's Annual is better than last year's, and we also know that next year's will beat this one. We hope as each succeeding year passes The Quill will become better and larger than the one preceding. pill illcllgwfiigm. , W -' ,QL WS, , A ,f xg If Q 1 f ' hx, l '- MI S x X :t :fine ,:....'

Those chosen for the Maine Newsw in the Suburban Times were Muriel Stout, editor-in-chief, Darthea Owen, editorials, Helen Scharringhausen, society and personals, Claire Knarr, class work, Thaddeus Napieralski, boys' athletics, Ruth Meyer, girls' athletics, Emma Galantin, special feature, Gwendolyn Dotts, exchange. f The staff for the Maine High School Notes were: editor-in-chief, Norma Nelson, Frances Pitt, editorials, Enes Freda, society and personals, Leonard Calvert, boys, athletics, Ruth Wessels, girls' athletics, Frances Briggs, special feature, Ruth Anderson, exchange, Virginia Rodormer, What Nots, etc. During the first semester, three promising sophomores were added to the staif, Helen Lenehen, Bernice Lange, and Lloyd Stow. The Press Club was organized at a meeting Of the two staffs early in September. The OHicers chosen were Frances Pitt, president, Ruth Wessels, vice-president, and Thaddeus Napieralski, secretary. Everything went along peacefully until the delegates sent to represent Maine at the Illinois journalistic Convention, held at Urbana, Illinois On November 21, 22, 23, 24, returned with enough enthusiasm to want to launch a school paper of our own. Up to this time every reporter had, tacked away in his head, a little idea about having a school paper, but it wasn't until after the convention fand a few talks at Press Club meetings by those who had been at Urbanaj that the idea was brought Out and dusted and everyone began to work enthusiastically for a school paper. The two staifs were reorganized into one: MURIEL STOUT .... . Editor-in-Chief NORMAN NELSON l DARTHEA OWEN P . Assistant Editors FRANCES PI'r'r j , HARVEY TALCOTT .....

New Officers for the Press Club were nominated at the beginning Of the second semester: Norma Nelson, president, Ruth Meyer, vice-president, and Leonard Calvert, secretary. The circulating manager and his assistants began to work for subscriptions, and the advertising manager, with his assistants, canvassed the business sections of Park Ridge and Des Plaines for ads . 1 3 HGHQKEQEHCES -C..

I 41 I w MAINE HIGH TANKERS MAINE HIGH TANKERS THE QUILL 73 ATRACK AND BASEBALL Due to the fact that the annual goes to press too early, the track and baseball teams are given little space. We would gladly read records of these teams but since there are no games played or meets held before the Annual comes out there is little to be said concerning them. Maine has always put out the finest track teams and very good baseball teams but this year it is doubtful whether Maine will have a baseball team or whether interest in spring athletics will be centered in track. Maine still has several veterans like Sieber and Jensen who will be nuclii for the ,24 track team. In the event that Maine has a baseball team there will certainly be a veteran senior representative to build a team aro-und. At any rate Maine is granted an excellent chance of coming out on top in these sports as far as the West Suburban League is concerned and surely the first place, a place which she has traditionally reserved for herself, in the Q.

H KX! 76 THE QUILL GIRLS' ATHLETICS The Girls' Athletic League has improved a great deal during the last year because the girls seem generally more interested in gym. This is largely due to the fact that field-hockey has been established and everyone was interested in this fascinating game. Preparatory inter-period games were played in which the second period won. In the inter-class games the sophomores were victorious. In the first game between the seniors and juniors, the seniors won by a score of I to 0. In the next game the sophomores defeated the freshmen with a 2 to 0 score. The sophomores and seniors then battled for first place, and the former won by a 4 to 0 score. In the last game the seniors and freshmen fought for second place with the result that the seniors were defeated by I point. This series gave the sophomores first place, the freshmen second place, and the seniors third place. The juniors were unlucky because all of their games were played with less than the required number of players. The League gave a hockey banquet at which the sophomores were the guests of honor. This event, the first of its kind, proved a great success, a fact which augurs well for similar joyous occasions in the future. The basketball games had not been played off at the time of this writing, but the following squads were chosen: Freshmen: Carolyn Biba, Ethel Richardson, Edwina Ricketts, Elizabeth Payne, Lareita Bogue, Dorothy Haas, Ruth Richter, Esther Anderson, Marion Sites, Marjorie Sites, Mae MacDonald, Josephine Neely, and Anne Burian. Sophomores: Vernon Pickell, Gladys Schweitzer, Florence Wordell, Myrtle Witt, Thelma Avery, julia Kleinert, Erna Kleiner, Pearl June, Margaret Hanck, Evelyn Wille, Helen Lenehen, and Eleanor Freese. juniors: Elsie Simon, Ruth Meyer, Enes Freda, Ruth Anderson, Alice Freese, Gwendolyn Dotts, Alice Walsh, Bessie Biba, Marjorie Snyder. Seniors: jean Wray, Ruth Wessels, Evelyn Alexander, Dorothy Chesterman, Elizabeth Hanck, Mary Hardcastle, Agnes Durham, Lucille Weisjohn, Agnes Bergman and Muriel Stout. Maine has a girls' swimming squad for the first time in many years. In the preliminary swimming meet Dorothy Armbruster scored the greatest number of individual points. - The squad is composed of the following girls: Dorothy Armbruster, Eleanor Freese, Elizabeth Hanck, Mora Himel, Clodagh Hefti, Erna Kleiner, Bernice Lange, Jeanette Paynton, Vernon Pickell, Ethel Richardson, Marion Sites, Marjorie Sites, Florence Wordell, and Jean Wray. r a 3 2 Q! u Q 7 1 1 .- lrfl I lltiilllllluul 'l Hill IH Ill! 1 wr lull gnu f 6 KIIKKTXIKCCHIKUKUIIIUKU 5 dll 2 4 1 v 'u '4 : 5 5 : O 5 9 uillxu A Mxktkltilli uigiulxguggqulstxxxuulxulhll K' KI 1 w. 5 5 4 1 uv 5 2 :I 5 .2 37 -4 4 , THU!

Kratt, music at Maine has reached a very high standard. U11 the evening of January 30th, Mr. liratt presented the band, orchestra, glee. and chorus in a very interesting program called An livening of Music . 'l'he auditoriuru was over crowded with an enthusiastic and appreciative audience. 'l'he program ended with a presentation of the new Xlaine song written and coni- posed by Mr. Kratt. Over two llUHLlI'Ctl copies of the song were sold that evening. 'llhe band this year was increased to a tnentbership of one hundred players. lts great progress is owing to tl1e capability of its conductor, Mr. liratt. ln addition to playing for the regular school activities the band has enjoyed many successful co11cert appearances. The orchestra is larger lllllll previous years and has shown its talent i11 many public appearances throughout the year. On l riday evening, Xlarch 28th, tl1e girls' chorus, assisted by tl1e orchestra, gave a performance ot ln lndia , a Iwo-ACI operetta by Paul Bliss.

After having acquitted themselves so favorably on former occasions, these musical organiza- tions in their final appearance will no doubt be greeted by a large and enthusi- astic audience. THE QUILL 83 CLARENCE The class of 1924, with the advice of Miss Parolini and Miss Lewerenz, made a wise selection for their class play. Booth Tarkington is always interesting and usually amusing. No where is he more so than in the comedy, Clarence , which depicts the life of a modern American family, whose numerous troubles arise largely from the father's being overly engrossed in business. The presence of a step-mother complicates matters. Naturally enough the son and daughter are ungovernable and make life well nigh impossible in the Wheeler home. They have reached that age-when though still children, they feel themselves older and wiser than their guardians. Miss Pinney, a charming woman of good sense and sound judgment, is brought to the home as a governess. Mr. Wheeler thinks she can bring peace out of the chaos-and she might have succeeded to a degree, but for the jealousy of Mrs. Wheeler. Clarence arrives. Apparently a nobody- you don't discover that he is in Who's Who until the end of the play-he is employed as a lowly servant. Everybody likes him. All take their troubles to him. After a time both mother and daughter fall in love with him, or perhaps it would be nearer the truth to say, one pretends she is in love, the other thinks she is. But Clarence loves Miss Pinney and when it is discovered that she returns his love, the Wheeler family are forced to fall back on each other. Bobby, who paid court to Miss Pinney, sympathizes with his sister, Cora, Mrs. Wheeler realizes that her jealousy is unfounded, and Mr. Wheeler now sees that the real solution of the family problem cannot be made by an outsider. It can be done only by him with the aid of his ,wife. The play has an interesting plot, but, as is usual, with Tarkington, his de- velopment and portrayal of character are what one enjoys most. The most unique of his creations in this play is Clarence. There is about him a quaint- ness, a dry humor-but why try to describe him? One must know him first hand to really appreciate him. It is no easy task for even a professional to do the role justice, so we have a right to be proud of the way Lawrence carries it off. Frances makes you feel for Violet Pinney what Tarkington meant you to feel-you know, somewhat the way Bobby and Clarence felt. One would have to look a long way to find two people who could portray better than Norma and Eugene the self-willed, knowing, stormy, romance loving Wheeler children. For that matter, we are glad the task is not given us to find a better Mr. Wheeler than Frederick, an amateur with greater histrionic ability than Helen. But if we're going to name all the good ones, there's no stopping until we have listed the whole cast, for all the others, Carl, Evelyn, Darthea, and Thaddeus are excellent in his or her par- ticular role. ' Much of the credit for the success of Clarence belongs to Miss Parolini, who for a second time in Maine's history has proved herself an excellent dramatic coach. Those who are lucky enough to have witnessed both Clarence and It Pays to Advertise will approve this statement. Mrs. Martyn Mr. Wheeler Bobby Wheeler Cora Wheeler Violet Pinney Clarence .

I'll0IKI L'1.Ax1u-.X TIJGYLBHBH THE QUILL 87 THE SCHOOL HOUSE GHOST Here wegwere, my two companions and I, out on the western prairies with the sun setting among the soft, crimson clouds hanging over that long, gray line of hills in the distance. Not a house nor shelter of any kind was visible over the wide expanse of brown grass, dead from .the autumn frosts, now lying gray in the dusky evening light. There were no living things about, not even a badger, nothing but the two big gray horses pulling our buggy and ourselves. 4 It looks to me, I said, as if we shall beforced to spend the night in the open. The others agreed. This was not a pleasant prospect in the middle of November. Even though the days are warm, the nights, without the sun's infiuence, are chilly and often really cold in the early morning hours. We were not prepared to spend a night on the prairies. We would have stayed at the shack of a hunter near the lakes up in the hills had we not been delayed. What say?that we drive on until darkness forces us to halt? asked brother. We have no choice of sleeping places. One is as good as another on the prairie and we might, with good luck, come upon some kind of shelter. So it turned out. After we had traveled about an hour in the waning twilight, we came upon a little country school house behind a swell in the land. Now our worries were over. Bill Watson, the other member of our party, put the horses in the shed, which every prairie school house has for the convenience of those who live many miles away. While Watson fed the horses my brother and I set about to break into the school house. The door was locked but I had a skeleton key which, to our good fortune, opened the door. The inside was typical: the rows of seats, the desk in front, and, most interesting to us, the old cannon-ball stove. We quickly built a fire with the wood from the box in the corner. Some pupil would have a chore to do the next morning. The old stove was soon red hot and it heated the room to a cosy temperature. VVhen Watson came in, he and I stood by the stove to warm while my brother-he was camp cook-made coffee and fried a few slices of bacon. VVe all ate a hearty meal as campers or hunters never fail to do. After lounging about for a short time while we chatted a bit we turned in for we must make an early start in the morning. A school house with bare walls and rows of seats for company is not the most pleasant place to spend a night. This one was particularly dark and lonely, far away from any ranch house. The full moon shown with a brilliant but ghostly light through the east windows making weird shadows on the seats and on the Hoor. But we were satisfied. Had it not been our good luck to find a shelter? And wasn't it far better than a night on the cold ground? It wasn't long before my companions had fallen asleep. I was just about to drop off when I awoke with a start. Rap, rap, rap. Someone must be knocking at the door. Rap, rap, it came again. Maybe, thought I, it is some farmer, who passing by has noticed the glow of the stove through the window and stopped to investigate. We were liable to arrest for breaking into a public building but it wasnlt likely that anyone would come by, we had thought. Rap, rap, rap, a little louder than before. I went to the door and opened it. No one was there Who's there? I called out. No one answered. My voice was absorbed in 7 7 ss THE QUILL the quiet. Again I called. Only the dim howl of a coyote came from the direction of the hills. I gave it up and went back to bed thinking the wind had somehow caused the sound. I was scarcely in bed fifteen minutes when I heard the regular rap, rap, rap, rap. I paid no attention but before long the continuous rap in its regular time got on my nerves. Rap, rap, rap, sometimes louder and sometimes softer but always in time. I awakened my friends and they too heard. Some one must be playing a trick on us, Watson decided. I had my doubts. No one would be abroad at this time of night in this lonely country. My brother was of the same opinion as Watson so he went outside and investigated. , I didn't see anybody or anything, he reported. We had scarcely settled down when the noise began again. Rap, rap, rap, rap. None of us had ever believed in ghosts but now we began to wonder if they might exist. We waited. The sound was continuous. Rap, rap, rap. Spooks? If so, weren't we afraid of them? We decided that we would find this one if one there was. I was to go around the building one way and my brother and Bill WVatson the other. We got up and put our shoes on-campers never remove any clothing when sleeping in blankets. We went to the door and rushed around the school house only to meet at the other side without any of us having seen anything. Watson looked over the stables and my brother explored quite an area about the school while I looked over the building for loose boards which might slap in the wind. We came together again with the same report, Absolutely nothing of sus- picious nature . We gave it up and returned to bed. Strange to say the tapping was not heard again that night. The next morning Watson and my brother decided that here- after they would give some credence to ghost stories. But I still didn't want to let go my belief that there were no ghosts so I took a look under the building. There I saw a big mound of fresh earth. Nature had whispered to a badger that cold weather was on the way and he had heeded the call. In digging his den, the badger pulled out the loose earth with his hind legs. In doing this he had kicked against the low Hoor. This was the explanation of the regular rap, rap, rap, we had heard. We ate our early breakfast and hitching our horses to the buggy, we drove away as dawn began to break in the eastern sky. 1-.gh 4' ol T -TAEER' X ,, THE QUILL 89 W,HEN I WAS YOUR AGE- BY MORA HIMEL When Bob reached the apartment where he and three of his chums were keeping bachelor hall , he sank down in a chair, and exclaimed with fervor, Oh! why! oh, why! do all the nicest girls in town have to have such families? I've just been calling on the 'peachiest' girl you ever saw! Her eyes are as blue as the sky, her hair is like spun gold. She has a complexion like a rose, and the most adorable, kissable- . Oh, can it, old man! affectionately exclaimed his chum, Tom. W'e're more interested in your story. All right, here goes, replied Bob, and proceeded, VVhen I rang the bell and was admitted to the house, her 'kid' sister came into the parlor and said, 'Are you the Bob Vernon Ethel has been raving so much about? Really, I don't think you're very goodlooking. Sis says the man she marries will have to help with the dishes. Do you like to do dishes? Are you going to marry my sister? just then Ethel came down the steps and 'Little Sister' made her getaway. We had not been talking for more than ten minutes when her mother came in. She stayed nearly half an hour, asking me innumerable questions, such as, 'Did I board? Who mended my clothes? How did the four of us get along together? Did the cook steal? Who looked after the house money? And so on and so forth. When she left, 'Little Brother' came in and sat between us, telling me all about the boat he had made. One by one the entire family drifted into the parlor, until I finally became desperate and made my escape. Believe me, if a young man ever comes calling on my daughter, I'll see that he's not disturbed. Ik ik Ik Ik Twenty years later, Bob's sixteen year old daughter was entertaining her friend in the parlor. Violet, it's ten o'clock. Send that young man of yours home and come to bed. One would hardly have recognized the once youthful Bob Vernon in the stout, middle-aged man who boomed this command from the top of the stairs. The young man swore softly, but there was nothing to do but to start to go. At the door, the lingering parting was cut short by another bellow from upstairs. As he climbed into bed, Bob said sorrowfully, How different things were in my time! Why, when I was her age- MIGRATION With bended stalk the sedge grass stands awaiting The coming of snow, the willow withes skirting the field Fringe it with red and gold. The pools in the swamp Lie clear and cold reflecting the low-hung sky, And watching with cool, blue half-filmed eyes the gulls Go wheeling by. Far to the North a moan is heard Its tone prolonged and weird, rising from off The whited wastes and borne to the listening birds. The whimpering cry of the flurried wind whines nearer The frozen marsh, and the fowl, forewarned by the spirits Of God, arise, and wing off to the South. L. J. LONGLEY 90 THE QUILL A RADIOGRAM This is Q. Y. W. broadcasting from the Pantliod Hotel, Grand Rapids. The announcement was suddenly interrupted by the squeaking and the squawking of Henry Schrotenboer's homemade set while in the interval he remarked to his father that this ought to be good. The two men of the household sat at the table with two pairs of head phones on their ears. Ma Schrotenboer rested her weary head and limbs in the room's one easy arm chair, but her hands were not idle for a moment, with the whole week's sox to mend. She could ask her husband and son what it was that was going to be good after it was over. The sputtering ended in a minute and the announcement from the warden of the penitentiary at Iona, twelve miles north of Holland, Michigan, continued: Four convicts have escaped from the institution here and are headed south on foot! The next number on our program?- The Schrotenboers dropped their phones on the table in their excitement and informed Ma that the convicts would be hittin' Saugatuck about tomorrerl Then they fastened the doors as securely as the rusty locks would permit and retired for the night. The next day when Henry went down to the village from school at noon, he found out in front of the tin shop four detectives attended by the town sheriff and a group of men and boys eager for the chase. They carried in their pockets photos of the convicts, over their 'shoulders an assortment of fire arms, and were intent upon scouring the hills before nightfall. Henry was easily enlisted in this undertaking, partly by the generous reward which would, if he could win it, pur- chase him a fine new store-made set-and partly by the prospect of getting out of a half a day of school. The party set out in groups of twos or threes and agreed to meet at Camp-Fire Log upon the beach. The clear bright afternoon sun slanted down through the vividly tinted trees in their autumn glory, the wild geese honked overhead, streaking the clear blue of October skies with an occasional line of gray. The deserted cabins of Saugatuck's summer visitors stood out darkly against the red and browns of the sassafras trees and the green hemlocks. Calm, serene, and lovely was the scene so violated by human steps that even the fat red squirrels, scampering in the trees, stopped hunting chestnuts to scold the intruders. ' When the party gathered at Camp-Fire Log, all had the same report to make. Although they had suspected every tree of harboring a fugitive and had mistaken every fallen log for one of the convicts,upon closer investigation they discovered that their fears were groundless. When Henry reached home he found that Ma and Pa Scrotenboer were pre- paring to take some eggs and a jar of cheese into the village to do some utradinm that evening. Although Henry demurred at being left alone, his father insisted that he must get a new belt for his small threshing machine to do the next day's work and Ma chimed in with the information that she would have to have another yard of that red trimminnbefore she could finish the dress she must wear to Mrs. Vederlink's quilting bee the following afternoon. Of course, they hated to brave the highways which were sure to be lined with escaped convicts gone back to their old game, but necessityl. So they placed the eggs and cheese in the back seat of the family car, a Hivver of long standing, and set out for town, leaving Henry to occupy himself with his lessons. Upon the bridge half way between Saugatuck and Douglas, two sentinels of the government had been posted to watch for a decrepit looking Henry which, a rumor had it, the convicts had stolen from a farm house along the way. So when the Schrotenboer conveyance slowed down to take the bridge not faster than a walk or ten dollar's fine the guards jumped out in front of them THE QUILL 91 and shouted for them to stop. lN'fa let one bloodcurdling yell escape her fast contracting throat and Pa stepped on the reverse so hard that the car spun all the way around and when he let it out and stepped on the gas he found himself speeding down the street in the opposite direction-towards home. In their anxiety to escape capture by the men whcm they supposed to be ccnvicts, even their frugal Dutch hearts did not sink at the thought of the eggs in the back, sadly dis- turbed by the unaccustomed speed. Immediately the astonished guards rushed into the shanty by the bridge and broadcasted the warning, Con- victs in Ford touring car fied from guards at the bridge and are traveling fast towards the north along M. H. R -Ea. -2-...age limi 'vF'l,. '1v'I!Q1 ei-f-'Z T -Q T ei e a, as 'l'-'.' , I I1 , Henry Schrotenboer, jr. picked up this piece of news and, hearing a rattle sus- piciously like the musical noise of a flivver, he burst out of the house to see it pass. Much to his surprise the car turned into their yard and his mother and father hopped out. He imparted the news to his parents with much gusto. Ma looked at Pa and Pa looked at Ma. As is usual in such cases, the woman recovered first and muttered something about the omelet in the back seat. But Pa regarded Henry with a stern eye and, realizing that if he imparted his strange experience to his son he would never hear the last of it, he spoke to him in a commanding voice: f'Have you got all your lessons for tomorrer already'?,' No , responded the boy much disgruntled at the reception his bit of in- formation had received. Then go into the house and git them, his father commanded. So the family filed into the house one by one without any of the things they had gone to town for and with crates of broken eggs in their arms. The old moon smiled down through the ghostly trees and wild geese honking through the sky made a dark streak across the silver light for an instant and then were gone. The hills looming up against the bank of clouds in the west were lighted up by the star filled heavens. The squirrels were asleep and the very rustling of the wind in the trees seemed to laugh at the misunderstanding of men for, inside the farmhouse over the radio came the announcement, This is Q. Y. NV. broadcasting from the Pantliod Hotel, Grand Rapids. The Federal author- ities of this city have just received information from the warden of the peni- tentiary at Iona, twelve miles north of Holland, Michigan, that one of the escaped convicts has been recovered in Texas, another in Kansas, and the other two were found in Canton, Ohio. They left Michigan by train at Muskegon and so were never within fifty miles of Saugatuck, Michigan, where thorough search has been instituted l 92 THE QUILL MUSIC MADE SIMPLE lVIusic is my hobby. That's what it is. I play a cornet in various organiza- tions: the high school band, the high school orchestra, the home duet, and some- times I do a solo-for myown benefit most of the time-because when I get done with it, and turn, with a glance that asks, Is it good? I find I am all alone. Minutes elapse before sister pokes her head over the big arm chair, removes her fists from her ears, and asks, Did you catch him? I hear kid brother's giggle. Suspecting nothing, I ask Whom?', Why the dog, or cat, or something or other.', I get the horse laugh again. I start the next piece and go at it vigor- ously-a little too much so, I suspect. P At the beginning of the composition you'll find a thing that looks like the conventional sign of 'and' used by newspapers to save space. This means it is written in treble clef. This is the top score for the piano. The bottom score has another like it, except that it is made different, and this is written in the bass clef. To make it, you do lesson number one of Palmer method over the paper, swoop down, and make a C except that the bottom of it, instead of continuing in a circle, shoots off at a tangent downward. Next you'll find a fraction written between the staff, like 6-8, 4-4, 2-4, or 3-4. This is the same as a post at the city limits of Des Plaines with the speed limit painted on it. If it's 4-4 go ahead with about the speed that a steamboat can make in a snowbank. 2-4 and 6-8 are the same. Imagine yourself beating it from Dick, the cop, on Hallowe'en night, and go to it. If he hears you, so much the betterg he won't venture nearer than a block. ' This leaves the 3-4 fraction to be explained. It's difficult until you understand it. On Wednesday evening, crawl under the davenport and stay there. About eight you'll hear Alyce come in with him. Don't sneeze or you'll spoil it. In an hour, the family's gone to bed. The victrola starts, and they start dancing. Hey! Donit peek out yet. Wait till you recognize a selection where you remember seeing waltz,, printed on the record. When this starts, peek out. Look at his feet, not his funny nose! It's laughable, but it isn't your object. Bury their method of sliding and stepping deep in your mind, and you'll have 3-4 time ex- plained in a nutshell. Tired? Wait till they sit down near the window. Young people LOVE the moon. He'll soon remember that the light refiects too much and he can't see the moon properly. He turns it out and you crawl to bed. But go quietly! So much for time. Next you'll see a collection of crosses or b's, but you'll never see both together. Why? I don't know, leave it to science. This is just an addition to the signpost telling you to close your muffler. Only on some streets you close it and on others you open it. It all depends on the number of crosses or bis you find, how much shutting and closing of the damper you do. A few more things. In a composition youlll find two dots, one above the other-you can expect them anywhere. This means repeat. just go over the part you got through with. At the end-mostly, not always-mostly, you'll find D. S., which means don't stop . You go back to an S with a line through it, above the score. German and French compositions are full of these. They like to see something that hints at a cartwheel. From this you play to a circle with a cross through it which means go to the coda fendingjg this is a special line written at the end. Simple? Why surely. Now, as a final assurance to show you how easy it is to master music in one lesson, I'll give my experience in band playing. THE QUILL 93 I got out my cornet, inserted the mouth-piece, and blew out the water. Then I twiddled the valves vigorously, to give myself a little assurance and told myself it was easy! ' The bandmaster's stick-baton they call it I guess-went up. I drew a deep breath. We started. Yes, sir! I was up to time and going strong. In the first five measures I had shifted to high and was ripping along until I saw a repeat sign. I threw in the reverse and backed up. I skied down the runs and my momentum carried me up again. I slid into the trio with a flourish and kept going. Then I came to a circle with a cross through it, so I detoured, and swerved dangerously into the coda and skidded to a stop with a blast-just at the right moment. Good, said the bandmaster. I was commending myself on my ability to play so that even he could recognize an artist at the wheel. A fellow cornetist remarked that he had meant the bari- tones with that bit of praise. Well, he doesn't understand music anyway, so he can't recognize talent. WILLIAM SCHULD1' A SCHOOL BOY'S COMPLAINT I jest hate to go to school, VVhy I'd jest rather set around 'nd fool. School is always sich a bore, And always will be f'evermore. You learn a lot? Oh, I suppose! But I'd rather dress up in some old clothes. I don't like to work, but I like to play, 'Stead of going ter school on a real nice day. Georgr'ofy is too much fer me, Tellin' of places I'll never see.. I wish there was no school for me.

The evening started with a short program in the assembly room, consisting of dances by Loma Rider, Clara Reichart, Gladys Schweitzer, Charlotte Hertz- berg, Larry Longley and Thaddeus Napieralski, and readings by Enes Freda and Darthea Owen. After the program, the Freshmen, who had come dressed as children, filed into the gym by twos and prizes were given to those whose cos- tumes were most childish. Ethel Richardson was the winner of the first prize, a horn and a jumping-jack. Those who wished to dance did so in the gym to the music of Miss Manausa and Wilfred Wirth, while those who wanted to play bunco went to the lunch room. Appropriate refreshments, animal crackers and peppermint stick candy, were served. The children, tired from their unusual entertainment, were sent home early. JUNIOR HALLOVVEEN DANCE Dancers swayed to and fro in the dimly lighted gym to the snappy music furnished by the Five Hermits on Saturday, November third. The windows decorated with Cats, bats, moons, and witches, made the gym a fitting setting for the mysteries and terrors of Halloween. Corn stalks and pumpkins were placed in the gruesome looking corners of the gym. Orange and black streamers hung from the lights. A little before midnight the party broke up as it was feared that the witches would soon be riding about. Everyone reported a good time. We're wishing a heap when we hope that future Halloween dances will be as successful as this one was. BRAVADO The soft rustle of seared leaves Eddying o'er the windswept pavement Momentarily startles me Wihen, in Fall, I walk the darkened streets, Alone, at night. Then phantoms haunt My quickening step, and I believe That each dark, old skeletal tree Gives birth to creatures strange and weird, VVhich lie concealed in the sapless bole, VVaiting to catch and waylay me. But what care I as I draw near home And see a light thru the window glowing? Slower my walk becomes, and I Mockingly laugh as I enter the house. C. R 96 THE QUILL SENIOR-ALUMNI DANCE As usual, the senior class gave the annual alumni dance. This event is always looked forward to by all and, if one can judge by the expressions on the numerous faces present, everyone's highest expectations were fulfilled. We assure you that this dance helped to make the homecoming of Maine's alumni more delight- ful. - On the evening of November thirty, the gym was prettily decorated with gay streamers, and by the use of numerous branches and twigs, an autumn back- ground was obtained. The efforts of the Royal Blue orchestra induced the dancers to step lively. The dance ended long after the bedtime stories were broadcasted over the radio. 'RETURN ALUMNI DANCE December the twenty-seventh, the date of the return alumni dance, is and will be remembered for the happy reunion that took place between the alumni and the students of the high school. A forest of Christmas trees greeted the guests as they came into the gym. The otherwise unsightly case was made to resemble a fire-place. This combined with tinsel and electric lights on the trees and the red and white streamers' helped make the spirit of Christmas prevail. The numerous couples danced to the gay music furnished by Thomas Illini orchestra. The hands of the clock were rapidly approaching the numeral twelve when the curtains were drawn on this scene of joviality. BALLOON AND CONFETTI DANCE The sophomores entertained for the first time this year, with a Balloon and Confetti Dance, which was held on Saturday evening, February 16, in the gym. The decorations were of various colors, mainly blue and white. Balloons hung from the baskets and the balcony. It was a great temptation for the freshmen to play with these balloons, but they all had their best manners on that night. The ceiling was adorned with crepe paper, and the windows were made to look like lattices as paper was twisted in and out of the wire protectors. The Five Suburban Syncopators furnished the gay music for the dancers. The grand march and circle dance certainly proved successful. And then-the best thing of all-the confetti storm broke upon us. If a visitor had come into the gym during the riots he would have thought that it was snowing. Well, sophomores, may you be as successful next time you undertake to enter- tain! THE WHITCOMB PARTY Members of the student body, of the faculty, and of the Board of Education were present at a party given by Mr. and Mrs. George Whitcomb for their daugh- ters, on Saturday evening, November 24th, in the Maine gym. It was beautifully decorated in yellow and white, November's colors, and all traces of the ordinary uses of the room were obliterated. 'One corner was filled with easy chairs, a table, and rugs, a favorite spot with the chaperons. About the middle of the evening after dancing to Sengstock's jazz, a delicious drink was served in one corner of the gym, and after this refreshment the dancers were ready to go back to their enjoyable pastime. After the last dance, when all were preparing to leave, everyone was shouting about the good time he had had, even down to the boys who decorated the bleachers all evening. Of course, we aren't sure about them, but we know we had a good time. i 5 , '1' Il IC Q 1' 1 1, l, 137 W x 'W 'I' H IG Q I' I L L liL'f!liIIiIU1 Roms: ISARIIAR KIRACE 'IlAI,Il0'l' . .

Prospect, Illinois FANCY I wandered lonely in the forest, Amid the tall green waving pines, And sang sweet songs of Nature. The trees echoed them many times. The trees had heard them often, But not from my own lips, The song they heard was not my own, 'Twas the song of their sighing tips. 'Twas the song of the lapping water, On that cold and stony shore, ,Twas the song of the Indian chantments, Echoed from days of yore. Slowly I stilled my singing, ' For more song I lacked not the words, 'Twas that I could never rival, The songs of the trees and the birds. THADDEUS NAPIERALSKI 5 THE QUILL 107 Sept..

THE QUILL BRAHMA A lugubrious East Indian God, This hulk of painted wood Squat haunched and heavy bellied, A monstrous crudity sprung from The ignorant brain of some untutored native Searching for an adequate expression Of his muted thought and songg Yet a crystal in this idol's temple With the curse of Death is fraught To any molester of its sanctity, The all seeing eye of Brahma, A frozen sphere of light.
