With the outgoing tide that sweeps this Senior A class from the quiet shoals out into different cur- rents, all but a few will have been erased from the white sands of Manual Arts, leaving the new generation sparkling in the sun, radiant with hope and ambition. Let us look back into the past a little. Can you picture the scene. The North and South building, with the long board walk between. We were styled the Country Cousinf' and the surroundings and our appearance sure did fit the title. We walked in dust, breathed and ate it. You could write your name on your desk five minutes after cleaning it, and at lunch time, at the lunch counter all the food resem- bled chocolate eclair. But we put up with it and did hard work under trying conditions. Our assembly hall was what is now the machine shop. The floor space in the middle was taken up with school seats, while on each side tiers of bleachers ran up to the roof. In front, against the wall, was a rude board stage, about the size of a cracker box. Our assemblies were Overhanging : that is to say, the gallery gods presided over the assem- bly in the rafters. It was like the days of Shakespeare's Court Theatre, only the mob occupied the boxes and the aristocrats the pit. The rough comedy was enjoyed by all, since 'our playhouse was rough and the play likewise. We were as a settlement on the border, rough and ready, and the conduct of some of our students at that time was of the same caliber. Our social activities were few and the appetite for study was at that time marvelous. Our atfletic field was a snow drift .of dust, and as we were not equipped with snow shoes and skis, we did not try to outdo Norway in her sports, but picked the few hard spots to practice football and a few track events. A. small schcol paper was edited every once in a while, which published the doings of our Hskulef' ' The car service and street facilities were simply marvelous. We had a sentry.posted on the top of the North building, and when he sifted a San Pedro car coming down Vermont, fe gave the signal and school was adjourned for a recess, while the said electric Vehicle plowed its way past our school. Noise? Oh, no! You could hear it when it stopped at San Pedro and school was resumed. The conductor and motorman only made one trip, after that they retired with pensions and white beards to their homes. Such were the early days at Manual: maybe I put too much paint on the brush, but after it dries out, it will be a pretty good picture, NOW You know what Manual Arts is today. The leading and finest- equipped l-ligh School in Southern California. What more do you want? Look around you at the facilities, the equipment. Beautiful, spacious, clean, white buildings, surrounded by beautiful lawns and flowers, that will soon be a tangled Fairyland. With the largest seat- ing capacity and stage of any high school in the world. Our athletic field, manual shops and print shop, tennis courts, truck gardens and cafeteria. Anything else. Yes! Two things which, without them, Manual Arts would not exist, our Faculty and our Student Body-the best set of men, women, girls, and boys ever gathered together under one roof. i What a change! We appreciate the artistic and beautiful things of every sort. In conduct, we are ladies and gentlemen. On our school was thrown the dregs of the other high schools, those that were to be given another chance. Can you imagine what Manual Arts had to labor under? But the garden is weeded out and Manual Arts has a clean reputation. I-IEREAFTER It's up to you. The coming generation of Manual Arts. We are on top, let's stay there. Will it come to the time that Manual will not be able to lose. Will the time come that you will not turn out unless your team is victorious. Remember Los Angeles High School, there is your example. Play the game hard in your studies and athletics, and play it straight from the shoulder. Manual Arts is an infant, five years olcl. What will she be at ten years? It's up to you, the stuclents of Manual Arts. For all of us together, in all sorts of weather, For you and I together, will try To establish for Manual Arts the reputation of a High School for work, a good winner, but a better loser. Your President, LANGDON SMEAD. To successfully edit a book with these proportions it is necessary that much time be put on its preparation. The staff earnestly believes that it has spent all the time necessary. There are some mistakes. There are some places where, if the book were to be printed again, some revisions would be made. We have tried to treat everyone fairly. No one who has asked for recognition in the present Artisan has been refused unless the staff has believed it has had sufficient reason for doing so. No attempt has been made to produce a laugh on every page. We believe that those magazines which have humor reduced to a science should have the Held. An annual is not one of these. The pages of the Artisan are filled largely with the activities of the gradu- ating class. This class is too full of the responsibilities which they are so soon to take upon their shoulders to wish that their annual be an enlarged edition of a popular humorous weekly. Many thanks are due the members of the faculty who have so enthusiastically helped us. Artisan Staff Editor-in-chief . . Assistant Editor . Business Manager Circulation ..... Organizations .

Didrft you all agree that it was the best class that Alma Mater ever claimed? And we are a true Manual Arts class. Starting school on the first February of Manual Arts life we have come straight through, until now we have only a half-term before us. There were only six hundred and fifty in this school before we came, but when we registered, six hundred and sixty-eight strong, We more than doubled the enrollment. Even then We had the majority. We claim the distinction of being the only B9 class in school who voted in two student body elections in one term. Ever since this initial miracle, we have done remarkable things. We always have been the leading spirits and active in school life. Looking back over our achievements this year, look at the success- ful picnics and parties that we have had. Do you remember the score of the senior track meet ?-7l M to 48K2. There is no need to ask in whose favor. No classroom in school can offer any such showing at 316. Three hundred and sixteen has representatives in every organization and every interest in the school. Players' Club members are: Eva Faulk, Law- rence Tibbet and Leo l-lolderman. The track men are: Penn, Hender- son and Hughes. The dancing class is represented by Marie Rendall and Lillian Shattuck. There are three league debaters: Claude Mor- row, lrene Millier, and Ruth l-laag. The numerous Mimerian and Adel- phic members complete the list. There is hardly a student in the room who has not done something for Manual Arts, ' Classroom 25l's specialty is a zoo. All members are guaranteed to be able to stand anything, for they have lived for five months with a rattlesnake, numberless bugs, all kinds of fishes, and a few human skeletons. The inmates of 2l6 say that they specialize in quality, as they number only twenty. They have one mimerian and one of the leads in the opera, Edna Shelton. As one enters 35.1 the studious atmosphere makes itself strong enough to overpower any ordinary mortal. The theory of the survival of the flttest is especially applicable to this room. J umors We hate to talk about ourselves, but just consider what a dull place this would be if we Juniors were taken from the student body. There are four hundred of us and the march down the road of School Life has been one of continuous victories. Consider our star track team without its Junior members. It would be a sad affair. This also applies to the foot-ball and base-ball teams. In dramatics we excell. Ted Vlfatrous who directed The Road to Yesterday, is one of us. Ruth Cornell, Stoddard Atwood, and a good portion of that clever caste belong to us. Our Mimerian list is too long to print. Many of our members have produced some remarkable literary work. ln fact most of the members of the Pen and Pencil club are juniors. I , The junior class is really the happy medium in school line. The Freshmen know nothing, the Sophs know a little more, while the Seniors know too much. Watch us, we will continue to do things. ' Sophomores Having passed from the lowest form of larvae, the scrub stage, Sophs are, by all rules and regulations, supposed to own heads altogether too large for their bodies. But considering what good reason this year's Sophs have for enlarged heads, I think we have kept ours to a fairly normal size. Of course, there are exceptions, but considering- ln debating we have an excellent representative, and the track team would never have won the championship without our help. We have among us great men and womeng we have accomplished great things, and we have contributed generously to the different branches of art, literature, science and history. Taking it all in all, we are a wonderful people: a people apart from the common throng. Snobs we are notg we speak to Seniors and Juniors, and sometimes even glance at a larvae. Oh, life is a sweet and beautiful thing when you are a Soph. Just one long, peaceful dream. Our hopes and joys are magnitudinous, our cares and sorrows infinitesimal. So roll on Old Father Time, we care naught for you. We Sophs live in a continual state of exhilaration. Freshmen When the signs were posted on the walls for the aid of the Fresh- men no one realized the hordes that would read them. Five hundred green, scared, shivering, scrubs gawked up at the signs and believed them. The funny part of it is that we had to ship an enormous mob of them to other schools. Those that did stay look promising. Some day they will be Seniors. Then we will see and hear more of them. Post Graduate Ohfzcer, The Post Graduate Class We are still rallying around the banner of Manual Arts: we cannot break away from the Manual spirit. Although we are Seniors no more, and naturally not so puffed up as we used to be, we are not the has-beens and dead ones that you might believe us to be. We certainly believe in having a good time, even if we do study a great deal, since we have given several informal dances and enjoyable get-together parties throughout the term. We have these not only for the good time, but also to get acquainted with the lower classmen. Taking everything into consideration we are having the time of our lives at Manual Arts. The Post-Grads number about seventy, thus giving us two Council members and four Self-Government representatives, so we play a consid- erable part in school affairs even at the present time. One point in our favor is that we are composed of those who claim various schools as their Alma Mater, thus comprising the knowing ones of different alumni, since we are not all from Manual. Some are taking only one subject in order to specialize, as many do in Arts and Crafts, while many others are taking extra college entrance requirements. Charles Sebastian is taking some studies at U. S. C., but we notice that he comes here every afternoon. I-le said that it was too dull for him over there, so he has to come here for excitement. Alfred Fowks was undecided as to post-graduate work last commencement, but since a little girl is still enjoying Manual life, he decided to do the same. Even Richard Edwards decided to stick by Manual Arts after going to Poly- technic for six months. At that time he said all of the pretty girls went to Poly. What is it, Edwards, some new attraction? So it goes, some returning for one reason, some for another, but, of course, the primary reason is to learn and accomplish as much as We can. This is why we all join in saying, Manual Arts is good enough for us.

If you do not you soon will. To gain a membership in this rapidly growing organiza- tion means four long years of work, better known to some as digging, and the accompanying joys. The vital purpose of the association is to keep its members ever mindful of the fact that they have not yet finished their education, at least in the eyes of the institution from which they graduated and to keep alive that school-day zest and enthusiasm which will ever awake pleasant memories. 'One of the main objects of the Alumni is to encourage real live Hget-togethersi' among the students. The members make it a point to become acquainted with the upper classmen before they graduate and to cultivate the social side of the stuclent's life as the school is cultivating the intellectual side. The Alumni Association was organized, following the graduation of the class of winter 'l3, with a very small membership, but we are pleased to relate that after the illustrious class of Summer '14 joins us, we will be a half-thousand strong, The Association has shown much wisdom in the choice of its officers. The present ones are Charles Sebastian S'l3, Presidentg Theresa Goss S'l 3, Vice-Presidentg Alfred Fowlks, W'l4, Secretaryg Palmer Beckwith S'I 3, Treasurer. Pen and Pencil Most of us already know the aim of the Pen and Pencil Club is to draw out the literary talentjof the school, yet most of us do' not realize the full scope of this work. The organization furnishes the Artisan with stories, besides running the Honce-in-a-whileu section of the Weekly. Next term the Club plans to issue a separate magazine, full of jokes, stories and poems from the fertile brains of the members. Editor Ralph Cleveland has done good workin selecting magazine material this term, and it will be hard to fill his place next year. The officers of the Club are: Douglas Kirchoffer, president, and Alice Bryant, secretary. , if W Bovs' League ' The Boys' league opened the vear auspiciouslv by giving a verv livelv entertainment for the entering Freshmen., but since then has failed to let the students know of its existence. The clubroom has failed to materialize. and the league laas developed into little more than a name. Tlse Girls' l easvue lsas been a great success, and there is no reason why the bovs can't make tl'eir organization mean as much to them as the girls do tfeirs. Ttf- boys should be brought together and get to know carb other f'u'side of classes, and this league is a sure solution of the problem of how to do it. It is oflicered by men with pep and go, who will see tlsat there is something doingg it can be made a real power in our school. Student Body Officers Cafeteria The Cafeteria has been far underestimated in previous publications and deserves much more praise than it gets. It may look easy to feed about l500 people in the short space of forty-five minutes, but-ask Mrs. Hoffman. In order to furnish this one meal for the hungry mob that infests the pie line and the crowd that lines up in front of the calf, the helpers in the kitchen must work from about 5:30 in the morning till about 6:00 at night, besides the extra time put in on special occasions, such as banquets in the evening. Mrs. Hoffman especially has proved to be the friend of many a classroom, catering to an ice cream taste and punch thirst when they give dances. Another important branch of the ,Cafeteria is the candy counter. ln the 45 minutes allowed for 'moon hour, Rusty and his assistants at the Sweet Shop do more busi- ness than some confectionaries do in a day. And yet they talk about the l-l. C. of L. This organization alone does S30 worth of business every day. Girls' League The Girls' League, although the largest organization in the school, is the least known. It is a sort of big sister idea among the girls. Enter- ing pupils are taken care of by the older girls. They are aided in their studies and assisted in their social activites. This particular Girls' League claims the distinction of being the only I-Iigh School League in the country. Council The Council this year is really doing things. Besides completely reorganizing the workings of the Self Government jury system, they have dug out all the past records and patched up the school constitution until it looks like a new one. By-laws have been printed and entertainments arranged for by this industrious body. The Board of Managers, a branch of the Council, composed of the managers of all school activities, has taken into its hands the matter of finance and other things that were considered too difficult to be brought before such a large body as the Council as a whole. The Council has this year been truly interesting for the members, more discussions have been held than heretofore and members have seemed to realize the importance of their positions. Much credit is due to Langdon Smead, Franklyn Harper, Rachel Kimball, Angelena Chapman and Lewis Ballenger, who as officers are the best the school could wish for. Long live the Council. uncil School Co ' A . f e . ' it ' Debating Manual Arts has taxen part in more debates this term than any other high school in the city. We have participated in arguments and debates of every kind: extemporaneous and preparecl. Altho we have not always won, we lave come pretty near it, and We feel satisfied with what we have clone. Santa Monica, Los Angeles, Poly, and Lincoln l'ave been among our foes. Weekly Staff Weekly There is one department of the school that is a greater booster for M. A. than any other activity. This is commonly known as the Weekly. It is an advertising agency, an information bureau, and a news carrier- all in one. It is the only medium of communication We have with other schools that happen to be too far away for athletic rivalry. As many outsiders gain their impressions of the school through that school's paper, this paper must be truly representative of tlie school. It must express the aims and ideals of the school-not in a stereotyped form, but in a way to appeal to the average high school boy and girl. It should not be formal, but should be bubbling over with our good spirits. Does our Weekly do all of this? Well, rather. It has the Manual Arts stamp on every page of it. Need we say more? Carlton Henley has done his best to make this termis Weekly sur- pass all previous eiforts, and it is the opinion of all that he has succeeded admirably. Civic League Through the efforts of Miss Dole and Will Martin, a Civic League has at last been formed. This league has a membership in the Municipal League. The purpose is to instruct tlfe students in the busi- ness of voting, so that when the time for voting comes they will cast their vote with some degree of intelligence. . Latin Club At last it is here. The one club needed to fill out the number of organizations needed for a school of the size and dignity of Manual Arts. What is it? Why the Latin Club, of course. The Senior A's who are taking Virgil, wishing to do something commendable, as they are the first ones to completeuthe Latin course at Manual, busied themselves and formed the Latin Club. It has started off with a rush and gives promise to rank 'cprimusu among the many M. A. organizations. The officers are: Lucile Watson, presidentg June Mcclaren, vice- president: and Earl Davis, treasurer. Latin Club Officers Lucile Watson, Pres. June McLaren, V. Pres. Irene Swartout, Treas Earl Davis, Sec. Self Government The Self Government organizations are doing excellent work this year under the leadership of Marie Stanley and Ross Lopez. Despite the many attacks made on the committees, they are still flourishing and serving as models for other schools who would do well to observe and copy. The new jury system which provided for a seven-man jury has proven how cumbersome the old system really was. More impartiality and fairness is now shown than ever before, while old offenders are being soaked harder than ever. Truly the ln Bad club is still a flourish- ing organization in this school. The idea of selling reserved seats to all entertainments has facilitated the work of the committee, in that there is not now the rush for seats, and the crowd in the halls that was so pervasive and hard to handle in the old days. French Club The French Club has been organized this term under the name of l..'Alliance de la Fleur de Lis. The officers elected at the first meeting are as follows: Ruth Hammond, presidentg Calvin Patton, vice-presi- dent: Alice Von dem l-lagen, secretary: Anita Veale, treasurer. This club has aided, and will continue to materially aid its members in becom- ing fluent in French conversation. The meetings, held twice a month, are conducted entirely in French, and during the sessions no English is spoken. The founding of the club is due to the untiring and appreciated efforts of Miss Levy, who is truly an inspiration to all the members. Girls' Self Government Officers Marie Stanley, Pres.

Mimerian Society The Mimerian society, While not giving plays, operas, divcrtise- ments, or otherwise advertising itself, has been doing truly good work in another and a more useful line. All students failing in school subjects are now entitled to apply to the society for a helper for their special diffculties. This work will aid in placing Manual at the bottom of the list as far as per cent of failures are concerned. Francis Steed as publicly applauded. l-lere's hoping that next term will see tlcm in president of the society has the thanks of many a discouraged student for saving him or her from a D. Adelphic Society Up to the time of going to press, the Adelphic Society had not given any entertainments this term, but unusual care was being taken to insure a program that would make up for some of the previous trite or banal offerings. Quality, not quantityf' is President Emmons' motto. l-le believes, and rightly, that one really good entertainment is worth half a dozen mediocre ones. Many of the students believe that the Adelphic Society and the Players' Club are conflicting organizations, but this is not true. The Players' Club is composed of students of the acted drama, while the Adelphic society embraces not only the dramatic, but the musical and other aesthetic departments of the school that may con- tribute to stage entertainment. . Spanish Club The Spanish Club started the year completely organized and ofh- cered. They have been the hosts of numerous parties and picnics. The club, however, is not entirely social. Those who belong liave taken a keen interest in the language and have joined because of the excellent opportunity for Spanish conversation. Adelphic Officers Fay Emmons, Pres. Fred McCauley, Sec.

Scott Nottingham, 2nd Ass't. Kenneth Borckman, 3rd Ass't. Book Exchange As the years go by, the book exchange, the mcst important, yet the smallest organization at Mantial Arts, finds itself one of greater impor- tance in the school. Each year this organization does more efhcient work in promoting school spirit, by introducing Manual novelties. The great success of the exchange this term is due largely to the efficient work of the boys in charge. Rey Elmore, the manager, has succeeded in obtaining sonie of the lowest possible prices on articles tlat are needed by the students every day, thus saving cash, time and temper for them. The average day's business of the exchange amounts to about 5545, and besides taking care of this, the boys have charge of the 'sl ost and Found department. Elmore states that at least thirty lost articles a day are turned in to the UL. or E' Fitz Chandler, Scott Nottingham, and Kenneth Brockman have faithfully rendered their services as assistant managers this past term. Spigoni Club The newest organization which graces Manual's halls is the Spigoni Club. This club's purpose is to promote good feeling and good times among a certain group of boys who are near enough manhood to be able to grow mustaches in embryo on their upper lips. The member- ship is limited to twenty-five. The ofhcers are: Jesse Frampton, Presi- dent: Clyde Freeman, Vice-Prcsidentg Ted Xvatrous, Secretary: Jay Smith, Treasurer. Player's Club The work of the Player's Club this year speaks well for this young but flourishing organization. The play Mlnhe Road to Yesterdayf, was remarkably well played and was conspicuous for the lack of ama- teurishness in the acting. Miss Ruth Cornell played the lead opposite Stoddard Atwood, and two better leads could not have been picked from the whole school. The Players' Club has strict entrance require- ments so that dramatic ability is absolutely necessary in order to become one of the lucky members. Lawrence Tibbet is president of the club with Stoddard Atwood as secretary. Players' Club terday CS oY I oad 'R from He Sce :- Commercial Club Officers Ronald Lewis, Pres. Elsie Angel, V. Pres. . Louis Ballenger, Sec. and Treas Commercial Club The Commercial Club, commonly known as the Dollar Marks is purely a social club. All persons who have worked in the Student Body office of this school are eligible for membership. The good times that this club have had are numerous, a few of them were hay rides, a l'lallowe'en party, and various other social activities. Altho this club is very inconspicuous, the spirit of the students and teachers interested in it is worthy of mention. Stage Crew Ar the first glance at this bunch one might think that they were dangerous. But don't be alarmedg they only wear these clothes when they are behind the scenes. These are the husky ones who paint the stage floors, pull the curtains, and make all the noise between the acts. The fellow with the derby is the most important, yet the poorest worker. l-le's the manager. Folks have to cultivate the habit of being very nice to this particular fellow if they Want to put on a successful production. , Auditorium Committee It is due to the Aud. Committee that the recent systematic set- ing of the students was installed. Saddler inaugurated this system. When he was obliged to leave school, Crawford was placed in charge. il' he order and dispatch with which the near mobs are now handled has never before been equaled. Stage Crew Auditorium Committee Girls' Clee Club Glee Clubs As this magazine was getting ready for publication, the Glee Clubs were in the midst of rehearsals for the opera Priscillaf, The leads were carefully selected after many tryouts and much hard work on the part of Miss Groves and Miss Willson. Vera. Morrow and Arthur Gilman were selected to sing the leads in the opera, and their voices are probably the best in the school for the parts of Priscilla and John Alden. The Glee Clubs did not make their appearance as often this term as heretofore, as their preparation for the opera lias occupied their time, and they have been traveling to the different grammar schools of the city and giving entertainments. This is a very worthy thing to do, but the students want more of the glee clubs on our own stage. The clubs never fail to make a hit when singing here, so we should hear more of them. Besides we need music, often and plenty of it, to soothe our savagery. K Band Thus far this term the band has been an unseen, or rather unheard, quantity. What has been the matter? The band was conspicuous for its absence at the track meets where it was needed so much. We didn't realize how it helped to have the band playing at our games as much as we have lately when they fail to come out. Perhaps the school has not shown clue appreciation for their part in success, but we are a busy people and no one or an orfzanization is expected to be peeved if not publicly applauded. l-lereis hoping that next term will seem them in those long promised new suits and occupyingtthat much needed band stand. ,.l ....11l. Orchestra The orchestra, or rather orchestras, of this term have far sur- passed any previous musical organizations in this school. Some of us didn't realize that we had two, real professional orchestras in school, until Dr. Wilson made the statement from the platform that this was true. The orchestras have served to make awkward pauses in enter- tainments seem shorter, and their work is developing some real musical talent that will mean a good deal some time. Boys' Glee Club Orchestra Band String Quartet Alpha Sigfrid, Chas. Edwards, Ruth List, Thelma Robbins ulty Fac ga, Miss Groves This write-up will have to be very, very serious. Not because Miss Groves is so very serious, for I remember distinctly at least two jokes that she cracked when I had her for chorus practice, but because life is a very serious thing nowadays. Miss Groves was always an angel child, and she continued to be very angelic through her college life. She never got into a scrape, never did anything naughty, and she never had a single thrilling adventure. But we must not blame her, for she was very, very busy. Here is a list of her achievements. She was born in Iowa-the corn state-however. she claims that the people there starve to death on corn husks. She is one of the few survivors. At the age of fourteen she was through high school. She began teaching at hfteen, and she had to get a special State Certificate in order to do so. Then she went to the State University of Iowa. She specialized in Latin, for her early aim was to be a language teacher. She graduated from college and the Conservatory of Music at the same time, receiving the degree of B. M. fbachelor of musicl from the latter insti- tution. Then she took up public school supervising, where she had twelve buildings with dozens of classes and hundreds of kiddies to oversee. She spent eight years at this work, filling her summers with post-graduate work, with Sherwood for piano and Carl Dufft for voice. After that she became instructor of piano and voice in the Drake Conservatory of Music. While there she concertized a great deal in Iowa and some of the adjoin- ing states. She was also the professional accompanist of the city work. In the meantime she spent a year and a half in Europe studying under Leopold Godowski and August Spaath in piano. She also specialized in harmony and composition under Olaf Andersen, from whom she received a scholarship. She came to Los Angeles in the fall of l9I0 because she had several piano recitals booked in this city. While here she was offered the position which she now holds. She has had many offers to return to concert work, but she thinks that there is more oppor- tunity for good here. She believes that the musical culture of a people depends on the value of the work done in the schools. When asked how she liked Manual, Miss Groves replied that she is more than interested in the work here, for she thinks that there is a wonderful field for musical activities. Miss Groves strongly disapproves of any student dropping any other mental pursuit for the study of music alone. While supervising in public school work, Miss Groves compiled the opera which she gave here last year. Among other things, Miss Groves is much interested in our out-of-door sports, dramatics, and although she is an artist in one field-music-she is much interested in art of all kinds. She is especially fond of directing, but perhaps teaching harmony would be her first choice. l-Iere's hoping that Miss Groves will stay with Manual Arts for many, many happy years, and that her students will plant the seeds of musical knowledge, so that the buds may blossom and brighten over all parts of the earth. Miss Carey The first event in Miss Carey's very eventful life was that she was born in Wisconsin in the year ...... oh, well, never mind. In spite of her slight appearance, she is a strong and hardy athlete. When she went to the University of Wisconsin, she was unable to make the Plvi Beta Kappa, but she iwon many medals while she played on the football team. One cold, cold freezy afternoon in winter a party of University students arrived at a frozen lake for a few hours of ice-boating. There were cracks in the ice, and these were fllled with snow: thus making large ridges in the lake. The party started offg the wind blewg the boat Hew across the lake. There was a drift ahead, nearer and nearer it cameg death would be the cost if that boat did not go over right. They were thereg our heroine clutched at the sides of the boat and held her breath in awful suspense. Ah! they were over. But there was another and another: on, on, whizzed the boat: a slide up and a tip downward. l-low nearly the boat tipped over. Such thrills, such dangers, and such narrow escapes. It was getting late: the stars were coming out, and how the wind cutg but gradually it died down, and the boat was stopped. Out scrambled the happy folk and hurried home, for there was to be a dance that evening. But oh their faces, how sore and how red! Cold cream was liberally applied and an hour's sleep indulged in. Miss Carey awokeg her face was a beautiful white, but horrors! her neck. It is enough to say that her lavender party dress found itself trimmed with a natural crimson collar. Miss Carey viewed the effect in the glassg it was awfulg she simply couldn't go looking like such a freak. Ah, but did she? Why, of course. lsnlt this write-up about Miss Carey? After leaving the University this young lady came out west. Her' principal amusement is hikes in the mountains. She is much happier in mountain boots-than in church. Her early aim was to be a musician. but since she excelled in literature and mathematics, she decided to be a teacher instead. Miss Carey is very fond of rowing, sailing, swimming, skating, and ice-boatingg she doesn't mind falling through ice cracks once in a while either. ln fact, she is quite a mermaid. CI was just going to say 'iwater Baby. J V Miss Carey used to think that the University was the only place, but she found her mistake when she came to Manual. However, she says that she would like to go back and get another taste of a real winter because it might wake her up. We couldn't let her go tho, for she might get lost in that land uonly frequented by infrequent frequentersf' The thing Miss Carey likes best about Manual is the friendly good spirit between teachers and pupils. The only things she doesn't like are big, lazy boys who chew gum and stick their feet upon chairs. She tells them to remove their legs: but as she doesn't supply wooden ones, they don't know just how to obey. Mr. Fonda Mr. Fonda was born in the Indian Reservation on Feb. 20, some- where between the years l850 and 1900. His father was general over- seer of the Indians, and lie got his job through the Spoils System. Mr. Fonda used to play with the little Indians, and his first ambition was to be an Indian chief with war paint on all the time. When another party came into power, Mr. Fonda's papa was removed from office. For a while after this, the Fonda family had a very hard time., The head of the house helped build the Union Pacific R. R., but the Indians got to fighting with the builders, and it made it very embarrassing for papa because he didn't know which side to fight on, so they fthe family, fled to the far west. They had a hard time getting to California because they came up against so many wild animals, wild men, and wild plants. One night, when they were sleeping under the stars, Mr. Fonda, Junior, was suddenly awakened by a strange noise. He got up quietly and fol- lowed the sound, but he couldn't catch up with it. He kept on following and following, and when it was morning, he saw that it was a wild horse and that it had led him to an Indian Wigwam. At this time Mr. Fonda's hair was red, but nowadays he never goes out in a strong wind without his hat securely fastened. After this adventure his family put him to work on a farm at nine dollars a month. a After reaching California, Mr. Fonda, Sr., discovered gold, and when lie became rich, he sent his son to the Worcester Polytechnic Insti- tute in Massachusetts. Mr. Fonda didnit want to study so hard, so he ran away and went to Harvard. All the pupils liked Mr. Fonda because he had lots of money and could do Indian war dances. Mr. Fonda's specialties were argumentation and yell-leading. The study he was worst in was History. Before he finished college, the Spanish war broke out, and he and some of his chums went to hght. He proved to be a brave fighter: the only trouble was that he fought like an Indian and he could manage a bow and arrow much better than a gun. Mr. Fonda, like most of his friends, nearly starved to death down there, and probably the only thing that saved their lives was a dog, which they cooked and ate. After he finished the war, he managed to get back to the United States. Unlike Mr. Hague, he didn't have to go to prison, but he did get the other affliction-a wife. Mr. Fonda was very thing but he soon got fat on his wife's excellent cooking. Mr. Fonda wandered aim- lessly over the country, doing any kind of work he could find, until one day he ran up against a red high school in California. A history teacher happened to pass by and picked up the scattered fragments. These two people became great friends, and since Mr. Fonda had had so much personal experience with History, and since he didn't know what else to do, he decided to be a teacher. Mr. Fonda is very fond of Manual Arts, and so are his little boysg but they are more fond of their papa. Maybe they will be Indian chiefs some day, or else teachers at Manual. They haven't quite decided yet. Note: For some mysterious reason Mr. Fonda did not care to have his past uncovered, so most of the above isn't true, Mr. Whitely Several years ago in a certain town there were several boys run- ning around at large. In this town there were several underground caverns, which were great fresh water conduits. The principal game of these little bcys was to hide from each other in these dark caverns. There was one little boy who had a great deal of trouble, because he couldnit run fast enouglc. Another peculiarity was that he was bad in all his lessons except arithmetic and baseball. Wl'en this little boy grew up, he went to college in Indiana and soon all the freshies got lheirsg for one dark night they were all cruelly thrown into a tarpaulin filled with ice cold water, surrounded by howl- ing lndiansf, Age had not improved his biceps, and, try as he might, he was not fast enough to make the football team. Instead, he was assigned the job of water carrier and did the sponging act. l-lowever, this did not prevent him from being an excellent baseball player, and for some time he had the honor of being pitcher of the Indiana baseball team .... Many years after, when he was a teacher in a high school in the far West, lie pitched at a certain faculty baseball game. While at the University of Purdue this young man studied to be a mechanical engineer, but the Fates in some way interfered with his careerf, and he began teaching. l'le taught the toughest gang of boys in all the country round: and he thought it was necessary to discipline them by making use of the fact that he was stronger than they. Let us hope he succeeded. Soon after he became principal of a high school in Greenfield, Indiana, where he ushered many parties to the famous old swimming hole, and where he became acquainted with Whitcomb Riley, from whom he took lessons in humor. Later he went from heaven fTacoma, Wash.J, to the opposite extreme fliucsonj, where he was again a principal. After serving his term in uthe opposite of heaven, he drifted to California, Something in the conditions out West reminded him of an incident in his youth. His mother always had insisted on his going to church regularly for a number of years. One day a pastor came and talked about evolution. His mother disliked that sermon, for she couldn't be- lieve that man sprang from monkeys. l-lowever, her attitude only served to whet her little boy's appetite for more information along that lineg so much so that he began teaching these bewildering subjects to students, and he has ever since been trying to make them clear. How- ever, he admits that to this day he has not figured out just how the world came about, and how we got here. At least an idea has been evolved that satisfies himself. Our friend spends most of his time now in a room lined with live rattlers, fish, turtles, lizards, and dried butterflies, beetles, and crabs, presided over by Mr. HBoneparte. An expression often heard in hisroom and which seems to be his motto, is: I would not enter on my list of friends the man who heedlessly sets foot upon a worm. . . Let us hope that this good friend of ,tiny creatures will have many happy, prosperous years at our, Alma Mater. As for Manual,, Mr. Whitely ffor it is indeed heb says that of the several places that he has taught, Manual is the finest High School with which he has ever had the good fortune to be connected, Miss McKinley The fellow who invented the air brake would have to invent something much more powerful to stop Miss McKinley. She is everlastingly on the gog she simply can't be stopped. As near as can be discovered, Miss McKinley was born and brought up in the country. Of course, she and her sisters and brothers went thru all the farm rigmarole such as horseback riding, tree climbing, and pig chasing: and she was not without her share of frights from infuriated bulls, snakes, and other savage creatures. Besides the outdoor sports she was very fond of literature. Among the masterpieces that she perused was Darius Green and His Flying Machinef' Immediately she and her brother made a flying apparatus not unlike that of their hero, with the result that they both !?'5!!?A'l Deciding that farm life was too dull, Miss McKinley left and attended nearly all the uni- versities in the country. She and her friends used to do very idiotic things at a certain domestic science boarding-school. The board was always elegantg Hotel Alexandria would go bankrupt providing such a table: but in spite of this fact the girls nightly found themselves in the last stages of starvation, making it necessary to perform nightly visits to the kitchen pantry. One night after securing enough booty to relieve their pangs of hungry, they quietly ascended the creaky stairway to the creaky gym, where they sat on the still more creaky chairs and par- took of the life-giving dainties. Suddenly the gym door opened and the housekeeper looked ing each scantily clad maiden sat shaking in her wiggly chair, not daring to breathe. In spite of the fact that light was never indulged in, they all knew that a row of white ghosts would be clearly seen. The awful suspense ended at last, for the house- keeper's eyesight was very poor. But for some strange reason, dancing was omitted from the program that night. The only reasons for Miss McKinley's being a domestic science teacher are that she earns her own living, and-she loves teaching. She has a dear little house with green parrots all over the dining room: also she is fond of tea and cats. We are glad of it: otherwise she might not be here, and we simply couldn't get along without her. Owing to the fact that Dr. Wilson has always had our interests at heart, we have enjoyed many entertainments this term in our audito- rium - February l2, Lincoln's birthday, a patriotic talk was made by Mr. Frank Tyrell. l-le told the usual little stories about Abe, and even added a few new ones. ' Miss Putnam returned from her trip around the world February I5, and gave us a most interesting talk about her travels. She said that she was glad to get back, and We were certainly glad'to see her. The lovers of beautiful music were given a treat February I6, when Mr. Charles Olerich entertained us with a piano 'recital. Mr. Oelrich is a true musician, andlputs his very soul into his playing. February 29, Professor Clark gave a reading from Les Miser- ables. With his wonderful voice and convincing personality, he held us spellbound as we listened to the story of Jean Valjean. As an intro- duction to his reading, he explained that he had chosen such parts of the book as developed the theme of the saving of a soul through love., Our next exciting event took place on March 20. It was the debate with Santa Monica. Ruth List and Claude Morrow remained on the home grounds while Margaret Shecld and Irene Millier argued at Santa Monica. V March 25 Mr. Wylie paid us a visit and favored us with a violin recital. We could have listened all afternoon, and it was with regret that we saw him depart. Mr. Wylie's accompanist was Miss Grace Bernard. V The Stanford Military Band presented a very good program in April. They- took so long in starting that the program had to be con- siderably shortened. What they did give us we thoroughly enjoyed, and we would like to hear them again when they come South. On April IO the Players' Club presented Hrlqhe Road to Yes- terday. Few there are who realize what it means for a group of students to put on such a large production without any assistance. The director, Ted Watrous, and the caste made a great success of the event. Although the play was selected by a Board of Censors and would not have been the choice of the club, the members put their hearts in it and played to win. Our debaters met our friends from the hill top in a debate on April 17. The question was: Resolved, That further restriction of unskilled labor would be beneficial to Californian Those representing Manual at Los Angeles were Ruth Haag and Scott Nottingham. Sybil McClelland and Dale Van Every remained at home. Madame Esther Palliser gave a wonderful program on .May 6, quite as superb as any given in our aud. On May 7 and 8 the combined Glee Clubs, assisted by the orches- tra, gave the opera Priscilla The cast, under the direction of Miss Groves, did spendidly, and proved that our singers are the best in any high school in the South. Miss Vera Morrow played the part of Priscilla to perfection. Her speaking voice was excellent, while her singing was beautiful. Every one in the cast showed that he had been trained by a person that knew how to get results. This opera was a fitting climax to a most successful series of entertainments. - Exchanges We were glad to receive several new exchanges, and have criticized freely, and hope they will do the same by us, as criticism is one of the helps to progress.

Goodby, l-loward, old manlu shouted the boisterous rice-throwing crowd of friends as the newly married couple hurried up the car-steps. NBe sure to write! Don't forget us! When you make your pile 'out there we'll come to see you. Goodby! Good luck! and the train moved slowly out of the station. Howard turned to the girl beside him. l-lis hand crept out and caught hers. Good luckln he whispered. 'ivvhat else could I find in my promised land-with you?,' Then they fell silent, and as the train sped onward, they dreamed of the new lfe before them--the life together in the strange prairie country that was to bring them happiness and fortune. Two days later, when they arrived at the dingy little down-at-heel town, 'these dreams were a trifle upset. The place was named, with singular unappropriateness, HEnterprise. It had seemed so fine to give their address to their friends at home-Mr. and Mrs. Howard E.. Jackson, Enterprise, Kansas. Both tried to keep their spirits from fall- ing, and with a bit overdrawn gaiety got into the lumbering farm wagon, which was waiting to take them to their new home, a three-room sod shack in the middle of six hundred and forty acres of a government claim. They jolted away over the rutty roads, through miles of sun- baked prairie. The dust rose in clouds. Now and then a prairie dog stuckhis head out of a hole and shrilled a defiance at the intruders, or a ground owl sat like a gray statue and stared at them. Besides these, there were no other signs of life in all the twelve-mile ride from town. l-lowardls face fell a little at the desolation of the place, and Janie, no- ticing his depression, exclaimed in an animated voice: t'Oh, how picturesque it all is! Women are always better actors than men, and l-loward, darting a quick glance at her, could see nothing but excited interest in her face, and took immediate heart. l-le began to plan busily how they would make this prairie land beautiful and fruitful. What a home they would make for themselves here. Of course, there weren't any improvements yet on the claim, except the sod house. But he would work so hard, and together they would make a home and fortune for themselvesg here in the country they had dreamed of so long: their promised land, as they had called it to each other, And so they came into their new life, confident and almost gay, for they were young and strong, and hope and love were strong in their hearts. The spring passed. They became adjusted to their new life, and the novelty of it wore off. A year went by. The land was partly plowed and planted to wheat. A few cattle were in the pasture. But the place took more than the little return it made, and debts were con- tracted. They still lived in the little sod house, but Janie had sent for seeds, and now a few puny ffowers struggled for life around the doors. I-low differently she had pictured it to herself! ln her mind she had seen the plants Hourishing, and the ugly lines of the soddy covered with vines. But the prairie came out ahead in the struggle, and Janie wilted with her flowers under the heat and the monotony of the days. They had had a rough initiation into the prairie life, and their rosy dreams had faded before the dull, practical problem of wresting enough from the land to exist through another year and plant another crop. The letters from the East came farther and farther between, and finally almost entirely stopped. There hadn't been much to write, after the first voluminous letters, and Janie was finding her life a particularly isolated one. As time went on, the curves went out of her face, and she fell into the habit of staring long out into the prairie. The days were a round of toil for them both. Janie learned the drudgery of farm life, looking for immense gangs of threshers in harvest season and even help- ing in the farm work outside, for times were hard Drouths and hailstorms came. The grasshoppers almost destroyed one crop, and the farm had to be mortgaged that another crop might be planted. Then came a time when it seemed that at last their luck had turned and some of their dreams might, after all, come true. The wheat came up luxuriantly. Everything flourished under warm rains and sunshine. The spring passed without the dreaded late freeze, which twice before had dashed their hopes. As the summer passed the crops prospered, and th smiles began to come back to Janie's face and the haunted look of worry to leave l-loward's eyes. welll he announced one day, We'll have the threshers here next week. Maybe, after all, we're coming into our promised land at last. A few more crops like this will put us on Easy Street, Janie. lt's a fine country. For once Janie welcomed the thought of the threshers coming. As she went about her work she hummed a little, and planned how they would build a new frame house just as soon as the mortgage was paid off. Then maybe they could go back home on a visit. l-ler dreams were broken into by a shout from the barn. Wiping her wet hands on her apron she hurried out. What she saw made her draw in her breath in a sharp gasp. There was no need of explana- tions. The prairie had taught her that lesson. She saw that the wind had veered and was bringing down upon them over an uninterrupted path of dry buffalo grass, the prairie dweller's worst foe, a prairie fire. They had seen the smoke all day, but had supposed that some farmer was burning off a weed patch, and thought no more about it. The dry prairie bunch grass, or buffalo grass, is fine fuel for a fire. The ffames lick it up, absorbing new strength, and spread ever onward, a raging fury, from which all the little prairie animals ffee in terror, even sometimes running into the farmers, houses in their fright. Word was sent to the neighboring farmers for help, and the men hurried in the direction of the fire and began a desperate fight to get it under control. Sacks were soaked in water, and the men beat at the edges of the fire with them. Janie worked too. She wet sacks, tore up cloths to wet and bind over the men's months to prevent their breathing the smoke, and at last she seized a sack and set doggedly to work to beat at the fire with the others. But it was a losing fight. This fire was no infant blaze, to be stifled in this Way. It had gained powerful impetus on miles of un- contested prairie. A back fire was started to protect the house, but nothing could save the crops, the fruit of so much toil and sacrifice. On rushed the Hames, eating acre after acre of the headed wheat. Before the fire was checked that night, not one head of wheat could be seen, only the powdery ashes blowing across the blackened waste. Janie and Howard stood by the door of the soddy, Janie's hair was down and half scorched off: her face was black with soot. She spoke in a dull, hard whisper-Hour Promised Land! Then she laughed with a jangling discord, and sank down on the steps and gazed out over the charred and blackened prairie. MAISIE REED. Memories I Stiller than where that city lies asleep, With fabled spires deep in the surging sea, Stiller and dimmer than that windless deep, The pale-flowered, shadowy field of memory. II I walked there with the thoughts of long ago, Dear thoughts and peerless of long-vanished daysg And one drew close-the fairest that shall know Their path that follow down the faded ways, III No more the blossoms o'er thy face, it said: Now is it feaven, here, where pale Howers beg On shall I wander, mingled with the dead, But die not, love, since you remember me. HENRY REINECKE. Beyond His Depth The anaemic little Englishman cautiously entered the canoe and after spreading his silk handkerchief upon the most stable looking cross- board, daintily sat down. A fleeting smile began to play about Ramona's lips, but it immediately subsidedas she caught the stern eyes of her mother watching her, for her mother had told her that one must be polite to an Englishman, especially, if he is rich. ' 5' Ramona jumped into the canoe with such impetuous energy that it gave a sudden lurch forward as it left the shore. Her mother smiled contentedly as they left and waved her handkerchief to them as they disappeared around a bend of the lake. Neither of them spoke for several moments. The Englishman was fascinated by this strong and independent girl, and the girl seemed bored, terribly bored, by her companion. We left the whole world behind us when we rowed out upon this lake, he murmured with a dreamy accent. 'iwhen I rowed out upon the lakef, Ramona corrected him po- litely and yet controlling a laugh. You are a Dianaf, he replied undaunted, Ml love to watch you row and play tennis and golf. Even though I win in every contest? Ramona asked quisically. You will not win in every contestf, he replied with a certain square setting of his chin that did not seem to fit in with the rest of his personality.

I-le seemed to have fallen into a reverie, and yet to have a live interest in the play of muscles in her fore- arm as she guided the boat about the lake. Finally he abruptly asked, nl-low old are you? Sixteen, Ramona answered frankly. Again he was silent and intuitively she was silent also, she did not know what to say to this docile and dainty individual who had so speedily adopted the characteristics of the strong. You will marry me, Diana. You will be pursued to the ends of the earth! I-le said this with such a tense and decided manner that she was surprisedg she was shocked. The shock was probably similar to that a pyramid would experience, if the top layer of rocks was knocked off. She said one word. That word expressed all and nothing. It was I-IUI-I! The Englishman stood up in the canoe as if he had forgotten that the canoe was wobbly and the water deep. V You shall be mine, Dianaf' he replied and jumped forward as if to possess this strong girl through coercion. She also stood up in the boat. uDon't you touch meln she commanded. Sit down. You'll upset the boat. Let it upset, he replied. If we can't live together, we can at least die together. I-le started to take hold of her arms and, in trying to evade him, she upset the boat. A few moments later a young girl climbed up the bank. Nearby a canoe floated upside down, and large ripples spread from the the place in widening circles. Poor man, and he couldn't swim. Oh! he must have been crazyf, Later as she drew near her home, a bedraggled but thoughtful figure, she was still repeating the words- And he couldnit swim! Poor man. I-le couldn't swimf' MELLIE MILLER. F LOTSAM It was awfully hot that afternoon, and especially hot there on Flower street with its monotonous rows of old gray houses, plastered with signs- Furnished Housekeeping Rooms. These old gray houses were once residences, but now, as rooming houses, furnish a living, of a sort, to widows. That is, they do when there are enough hard-up tourists and business college students and other Hotsam of a large city to go around, and when the rent and the interest on the mortgage are not too high. As I said, it was awfully hot that afternoon, and the typical down- town summer noises floated in from the street: Liwatermelons, swee-ee-eet watermelonsf' the tinkle from the bell of an icecream wagon, the swish of the water in the gutter as the street sprinkler went by, the shrill cries of the children and the creak of the garbage wagon in the alley. A swarthy, greasy face smiled at me through the screen door, Vegetables, lady? KNO, I answered, for I felt cross. My mother had gone down town, and since I was the landlady,s daughter, I had to stay home and answer doorbell and telephone or show rooms to prospective renters. I was hot and cross. In tlie back yard I could hear poor little Mrs. Byrne rubbing clothes and talking to her baby, That's right, you little mischief: you sit theah and laugh at you' mammy workin' in the hot sun. Nevah you min', honey, I'l lbe thru heah in jus' a minute, and we'll go in wheah it's cool. , I remembered when she had come to us a few weeks before, carry- iig lcr baby and accompanied by her tall, shuffling husband, who car-- ried the suitcase. She was a pretty, little woman, small and blonde and overflowing with energy, while her husband was tall and dark and as slow as she was quick. She picked out the room, paid my mother, and settled therein her husband and child, talking all the time in her soft, southern voice, while her husband said nothing and moved no more than was absolutely necessary. They had been with us for about three weeks, and Mrs. Byrne had met and captured the heart of every one in the house. Mr. Byrne could not find work and the last weekis rent was yet unpaid. UNOW, don't you cry, baby! Mothah will be thru in jes' a minute. Jes' listen to this, honeyzn and she sang in a sweet soprano voice: Come to a rivah, an' I couldn't get across, Jumped on an alligatah, took him for a ho,se. in time to rubs on the washboard. Just then the doorbell rang and, with a sigh, I went to the door. A small, rather withered old lady in black stood there, dusty and per- spiringr, Her eyes were of a wavering, watery blue, and her mouth sagged woefully at one corner as she asked, Does a Mrs. Byrne live heah? I am her mothahf' I-ler mothahn proved to be rather a tiresome old lady, and, nat- urally, I avoided her as much as possible, Her name was Mrs. Talbot -Hof Louisianan-as she always added, thus making aniopportunity to review the past glories of her family. With a girlish simper she would tell of her former sweethearts and love affairs. She also delighted to tell of her daughter's opportunities to marry prominent men, concluding with the advice never to marry a poor man- See poor, deah Dorothy actually doing her own laundry! Mrs. Talbot herself never did any- thing of the sort, no indeed! She did not even wash dishes or sweep the floor, but at times she would watch the baby, although Mrs. Byrne did not like to leave her alone with the child, for Mrs. Talbot had an unshakable suspicion that it needed medicine of various kinds. Well, Mr. Byrne lead Work for about half the time, and the rent was paid more or less regularly, so naturally we thought that all was well in number four, So you can understand that I was surprised to find Mrs. Byrne crying on the front porch one night when I and the boy across the hall returned from the ujitney opera, as he called it. When Mrs. Byrne choked out my name, I waited, of course, while the boy across tl'e fall went into the house whistling loudly. I am not very good at the sympathy game, and usually turn that side of the business over to my mother. But I did the best I could this time and listened to her story. It seemed that Mr. Byrne had an offer of work up North, bossing a construclirn garg for tle railroad, and, of course, did not feel that he could turn down a steady job. But he absolutely refused to take his mother-in-law along, and to support her in Los Angeles was out of the question. I wondered lsow tliat slow, lazy man had ever gathered cnough energy to take a definite stand. But Mrs. Byrne didn't seem to consider the possibility of persuading him to change his mind. i'Oh, honey! What shall I do? What shall I do? It's eithah my mothah or my man and baby-how can I choose? I knew, of course, that even were I to advise her, it would make no difference, and that really the only reason she had asked for advice was sc- that she might, in telling her troubles to me, more clearly see the situation. That is the way they all do, so I didn't feel called on to say anything, but just patted her hand and felt foolish, Poor mothah is so helpless! She has no money, and can do absolutely nothing to earn her living-not even housework. She is so old and helpless! Mrs. Byrne was quiet fora moment or two and then burst out frantically, I don't care! It isn't fair that I should have to choose! Why did she come out l.ere just at this time? It isnit fair-it isn't- it isn't! I knew then what she wanted to do, and what she would do, no matter what my advice might be, and, as it was getting cold and I was sleepy, I thought I would help her alongg so, in my most grown-up tones, I said: It is really your baby you must consider, it seems to me-the coming generation more than the passing. As your mother would have chosen your welfareg so must you choose your cl1ild's. I thought that sounded really very well, and so did Mrs. Byrne. Do you really think so? Is it my duty to go with Jack? But poor mothah -and she was about to begin all over again, when I stopped her by telling her tf at she shouldn't decide tlien, but should wait untilthe next day. ' ' lust as I expected, Mrs. Talbot told me-soon afterwards-that Deah Jack had a splendid offer in tl'e noith with a new branch of the Southern Pacific. I shall go to them when they are settled in the'ah new home. After their departure it was quite pitiful to see how anxiously the deserted old lady looked for mail. Each day she would carefully go over the mail, both with and without her spectacles, and then say stoutly, I'll surely heah tomorrow. After two weeks had passed and there had been no word, and since there was two weeks' rent overdue, my mother suggested, quite tactfully, I am sure, that Mrs, Talbot get a position as companion or housekeeper until her daughter should send for her. The old lady's pride was broken! And from what mother said there must have been quite an unpleasant scene. It must have been rather a shock to the glory of the Louisiana Talbots that the last to bear that name should go into domestic service. Mrs. Talbot must have remembered some of her girlhood novels, for the next day she was quite cheerful and brought mother an adver- tisement which went something like this: HA. refined Southern lady, of one the first families, suffering tem- porary indigency from pecuniary embarrassments, will consider a posi- tion as companion, or secretary, or young ladies' chaperon among con- genial surroundings in a family furnishing satisfactory recommendations. A personal interview may be obtained at the Leona Apartments, 1 Flower Street, City. Of course, nothing like that would do at ally so the one which mother had inserted ran something like this: HElderly lady would like position as housekeeper. 7I Flower Street, City. This had the advantage of being shorter and, consequently, less expensive. Of course, Mrs. Talbot wasn,t a good housekeeper, and it was a problem how she was going to keep other people's houses when she had never done any of her own house work. ' One evening she brought home from downtown six photographs of herself and proudly showed them to us. Mother was angry, natu- rally, and asked her why she spent her money for pictures when her rent was overdue. Mrs. Talbot cried and cried, but between sobs we gathered that slie thought tlvat if she were to get an offer through the mail she could send her photograph and thus make sure of the position. And besides, she hacln't had a picture taken for six months, and the baby might forget her without a picture of its grandmother. Then she became angry and declared that mother was no lady. Imagine that, when mother was actually giving her charity! At last she got a position as housekeeper for a widower with three children, although I am doubtful if she insisted upon a satisfac- tory tree. We never heard from Mrs. Byrne, and Mrs. Talbot also ignored us after the picture incident, but we saw her again about a year ago. We were eating at a cafeteria one Sunday noon, and I noticed a rather familiar old ,lady about three tables away. Say, mother, I whispered, do you suppose that old lady over there is Mrs. Talbot? Sh-sh, not so loudf' said mother, who always gets painfully respectable when she eats downtown Sunday noon in her other suit. But she looked just as eagerly as I did. Just then the old lady got up to leave. It was the same old black suit, only the skirt was shinier and the silk waist dustier. But it was the face which held my eyes. The cheeks were heavily rouged and the gray hair liung in precarious curls over her eyes. The weak little mouth, now scarlet with rouge, sagged more woefully than ever. Her hand trembled as she gave her check to the cashier. The check was for I5 cents. I LUCILLE. WATSON. Mary Ellen's Mother , ln one corner of the weatherbeaten porch of the McGregor l-lome for the Friendlessf' sat Mary Ellen, doubled up so tliat she was well out of the relentless rays of a midday sun. At the same time eight or ten children ran screaming and jumping from one end of the porch tw the other in an endless game of tag. Both of lVlary,s little brown hands supported an equally brown chin, and her eyes, half shut, gazed thought- fully across the hot stretch of dust and yellow grass that constituted the front yard of the l-lome. Very plainly Mary Ellen was in deep thought: so deep, in fact, that she did not hear the steady ringing of tl'e bell. This bell brought all the boys and girls alike in their hideous, skimp orphanage clothes to the long table of plain, obviously wholesome, orphanage food. But soon the cessation of all wild lndian yells, charging infantry roars, and other familiar noises awoke her from her reverie. Jumping to her feet she shook her head as if in great bewilderment and went slowly into the big dining room. ' But all day she wore a preoccupied air, greatly at odds with her usual energetic nature. The end of the afternoon found her sitting in the same corner with the same half-wistful, puzzled expression on her little face. Suddenly she leaned over the porch railing- Billy,', she called. , A small boy straightened up from his task of laboriously driving a stake in the ground with the back of a tin shovel. l-luh? he questioned. Come heref' l-le moved reluctantly forward. l-le was used to obeying Mary Ellen, as were most of the other small boys. fYou didn't get feathers surreptitiously pulled from the orphanage duster for your Indian suit, if you didn't.Q Billy, did you ever have a ma? An expression of distaste crossed Billy's face. Wunst, he an- nounced briefly, and l don't want another. Why? Mary Ellen leaned nearer to him. That new kid, she whis- the window behind her, and then watched for the effect of her startling pered, is in there cryin' for her ma! She indicated with her thumb statement, nl-lully gee! ejaculated Billy. ul-lonest? l-ler that come a week ago? What's the matter with her? ' l dunno, said Mary slowly. She's cried every day since she come. I been talkin, to her lately, tryin' to comfort her sort of, and she don't talk like you and the other kids at all. Say, Billy, are you sure yours was your mother? ' Yep, said Billy firmly. My ma was my ma all right. I kin prove it by the lickin's l got. l don't believe it can be her ma 'cuz l don't see why she should cry for lickins, and nothin' to eat, not even rice. Mebbee 'twas her aunt. l knew a feller that had a aunt an' she brought him some candy wunst. Nope, it can't be her ma! But she talks about mother all the time. The most be-oo-ti-ful mother. Oh! Billy mebbe mothers and mas aren't the, same thing. You and Jennie and Pat and the rest always say Ma, and she always says Mother. Yours wasn't little and pretty and fun, was she? Well, I guess not! Billy had returned to his work and his remarks were punctuated by little grunts and the vigorous bangs of his shovel as it hit the stake once out of about three efforts. She was awfully big, as big as this house almost, I guess, an' had lots of red hair an' gollyl but she could yell when she got mad. Wunst- But Mary Ellen stopped him, fearing that Billy was about to launch into a lengthy description of one of the exciting scenes with which his short life had been filled. l-le delighted to relate these melees to interested playmates who had been so unfortunate as to have been born into comparatively calm and peaceful households. The picture that Billy drew was so entirely different from that which had been in her mind all day that Mary Ellen's convictions grew. How could two such totally different characters belong in the same class. Clearly a Mother and a Ma were not one and the same thing. The McGregor Home stood in the poorer, crowded district of the city and the children were almost invariably the sort who had known no kindness. After the death or desertion of their parents they were brought in from the streets to the shelter of its walls by some kind stranger or friend. So it was no wonder -that the advent of a little girl who actually regretted the loss of her mother to the extent that this one did, she should creat turmoil and confusion in the mind of Mary Ellen. I don't.know but what I wish I had a mother, she said hesi- tatingly. Billy gazed at her aghast, then with undisguised disapproval stamped on his face, picked up his playthings and disappeared in search of a companion who was not entirely mad. , . The picture of the little, patient woman, who gave kisses instead of blows and laughed instead of scolded, had taken great hold on Mary Ellen's heart and fired her imagination. l-four after hour she sat by the side of the little forlorn newcomer, plying her with eager questions. Then with her fertile imagination-for Mary Ellen had an imagination in spite of the i'McGregor Home --she created for herself an ideal mother. Little, with a face like the Madonna's in the House-mother's room, soft, loving hands, and a lovely voice that would greet her with, Baby dear, mother's home, but at this point, Mary Ellen would shakeher head dubiously. No one would call a great girl of ten Baby even in imagination. But she had never been anyone's baby and in her secret heart she longed fiercely for the little pet name. The days went by. Gradually the sorrows of the little girl who had wept so bitterly at first grew less, and the beloved mother became only a memory vaguely sad and sweet. But it was not so with the image in Mary Ellen's mind. The make-believe Mother whom she still distinguished from the ma of the other children, became her Y M constant companion. lf, through the cracks in the wall surrounding the McGregor she caught a glimpse of some daintily dressed woman, she whispered, That's a mother. If by chance she got hold of a maga- zine or book, every lovely pictured face was always a Umotherf' And so it chanced, that she was in her favorite corner on the porch bent adoringly over the torn and wrinkled picture of a popular Broadway actress. She was weaving her day dreams about tfe pretty flace when Billy, on what seemed the wings of a cyclone, rushed up to er. Yur ma's here, he shouted: your ma's come to git you, Mary Ellen. Mary Ellen raised startled eyes to the jumping figure before her. My ma! Why I havent' got one. Never had one, and her eyes traveled fondly towards the picture, half hidden beneath her skirt. Run away, Billy. Billy's eyes Hashed. She is so, he insisted, mcause I heard Mrs. Lacey tell Miss Roberts to find you 'cause your ma'd come back. An' she's been sick and didn't know where you was, and when she found out she come right away to git you and take 'you away. Mary Ellen heard with bated breath. She got up slowly and took hold of Billy firmly by the strap of his blue overalls. Billy,,' she almost whispered, What's she like, my-my, mother? Billy grinned. l-lere was his chance. He and Mary Ellen had had words over this mother and ma business, Furtfermore she had told him- one day with a superior air tl' at she had a mother as beautiful as a princess waiting for her, and that he didnlt and never would have because he had had a ma and he wasn't entitled to but one. Also for two months she had been worth absolutely nothing as a playfellow. .. Oh! he began slowly, ushe's awful big, as big as this house maybe, and talks awful loud, an' got red hair an'-H But here he found himself precipitated to the porch floor by the sudden rush Mary Ellen made past him. Around the corner of the house she sped, her face pale, hair streaming, and eyes big with terror. Straight through the little gardens kept by the children she ran until sl c came to the very farthest corner of the McGregor l-lome's property. There stood a comfortable old apple tree. She cauglit the lowest branches and swung herself up . Up-up she climbed until the limbs grew so small they bent beneath her weight, and then she stopped. l-ler breath came in short dry gasps, and her little body shook with her emotion. She's a ma,', she kept repeating between her scbs. Hvlfhy, oh, why wasn't it a mother? The mother she had longed and waited for. She sobbed until her head ached fearfully. She grew dizzy, but never, never, would she come down to where the terror of her little life was waiting to take her away. l-ler heart pounded violently against her side, for almost below her she heard voices. The matron and Miss Roberts were both saying they didnlt know where she could be. She leaned over to see the person to whom they were speaking. Suddenly her little numb hands loosened and she felt herself falling through endless green- ery and hard branches. Unconsciously the word she called as she fell was lVlother. Slowly, ever so slowly, she regained consciousness. That she must have fallen directly into the enemy's camp was beyond doubt, but just exactly what was going to be done with her she did not know and wished to put off to the last minute. She was filled with disgust at her- self for not holidng on longer, and her anger and mortification, together with the pain in her head, brought hot tears to her eyes. The something soft beneath her head moved and then all the old terror came rushing back. She struck out blindly with her hard little fists when suddenly the sweetest voice in the world with a little catch beneath the words said, Why, baby dear, its mother! Her eyes opened to meet the infinitely tender gaze of a pair of soft brown ones beneath a cloud of fluffy brown hair. Mary Ellen caught her breath. She lay in the arms of a little, gentle-faced woman, clad in black with something soft and white at her throat. Mary Ellen thrilled. Oh! Oh! Mother! she whis- pered and buried her little face in the soft folds that covered that tender mother bosom. I Long to Dance on the Sea I long to dance from morn till night, On the foam of the seething sea, With head thrown back and tresses streaming, Buoyant, bold, and free.

The Come Back The man staggered a few steps, then fell. He lay face downward on the trail. Finally he rose to liis knees: then, crawlingrto a small tree, he slowly drew himself to his feet. I-le nearly fell again, but steadied himself by putting his arm about the tree. HI 'am so weak, so weak, he mumbled, passing his hand over his fair head. HI have got to reach the cabin, and his deep sunken, dull eyes lighted up with a cold, hard glare. The thin face was drawn and pinched, the rough hickory shirt and blue overalls hung loosely on his gaunt frame. I-le took a few steps, then passed his hand over his closely shaven head. Then going back to where he had fallen, he began to search. I must find my hat-if they see this shaven head, all over- I wonder if the news has reached the mountains yet. I must get off the trail. Tying a bandana handkerchief around his head, he left the trail and plunged into the underbrush. The sun rose higher and higher, and still he fought his way up, up the mountain, until finally he fell across a dead tree. Spasms of cough- ing racked his frail body. Finally exhausted, he lay still. Slowly he rose, swaying unsteadily. He staggered to a pine and sat down with his back against its rough trunk. The Doc was right. I can't last much longer: another spell and I am gone. I have got to do my work first.. I have got to get Mor- risey before the White Death wins. Yes, the Doc was right, but I am going to win. All those years in that walled hell, the White Death slowly mas- tering, he could see Mary and little Honey Bee the morning the sheriff took him away to prison. Her brave words as he kissed her goodby. We'll wait for you. And the baby, your I-loney Bee, will wait too. A farewell wave of her baby handsg then the train pulled out. Now he was going back to kill Jim Morrisey. The thin lips shut in a grim line -in the deep eyes all the fires of death seemed to spring. Yes, to kill Morrisey he would make it. He would beat the White Death. Three years of his seven-year sentence served: all day, work, work: at night, in his narrow cell, lying in his narrow bunk, thinking, thinking of Mary and Honey Bee. I-le would keep up, and then, when his sentence was served, back to Mary and Honey Bee. They were waiting and they would not wait in vain. Jim Morrisey he would punish: prove to the world he hadn't had a fair chance. That Mor- risey's silver tongue had won the jury over to him. Then the White Death had come. I-low he had fought it, for Mary and I-loney Bee. It slowly gained. When they were march- ing from dinner to the cell house to be locked up, the warden hauled him from the ranks and handed him a telegram. Mary died last night. Everything went black, but out of the blackness was blazed in letters of - d W. 4 W, fire: Kill Jim Morrisey! He made the waiting too long for Mary. The one thing, the one thought, kill Morrisey, burned deeper and deeper into his brain. To kill Morrisey he must get out. That night. he feigned sickness: the guard came into the cell: a short scuffle, a soft thud.-Down the corridor, out into the yard, creeping, creeping along the shadow of the wall.-Up above, the moonlight glinting on his rifle, paces the guard back and forth. Slowly, inch by inch, up the stairs: now the top is reached: on comes the guard. Humming a gay little love song, he nears the shadows of tl e guard house: he stops, looks over toward the warden's office, puts a bottle to his lips. His last drink. Long, lean fingers close over his throat: tighter, tighter they clzse. The man in the blue uniform crumples up. Over tlre wall! Maybe he hit the farmer too hard, but he had to get rid of the stripes. Out into the night shrieks the long, moaning blast. The prison whistle! They have found out. Again the call to hunt is sent out into darkness. A cross the river. Safe! He knew fe could find the way through the trees. He could see the cabin. Slowly he pushed open the door. Empty. He stepped across the room, to reach his rifle, which hung above the mantelpiece. He stumbled over something soft: he picked it up. Honey Bee's rag doll. Where was Honey Bee? Of course, she couldn't have stayed here after Mary died. He must find her: but first he must do his work. Filling his pockets with cartridges, he went out. How weak he was becoming. Another spell coming, he must reach the ford. Again the White Death racked his body. He gasped for air. Blood flecked his lips. He must reach the ford and get Morrisy as he crossed to -go home. God! He couldn't give up now. Crawling, fighting death inch by inch, death almost won by Big Pine. On and on, crawling, crawl- ing, dragging tlfe heaiy rifle, on and on. The ford at last. Among the willows he lay, the rifle propped on a rock, waiting and ready. Down the trail came tlze clatter of a horse. They swung around the curve. The horse plunged his nose into the cool waters of the stream. The rifle steady, the sights on Jim 'Morrisey's heart, the hnger pressing, Tightening on the trigger. .Af Ti a DHITET-Uf feetpntlre-foot bridgeff You got it! You got it! A lift into the saddle: brown curly head against gray shirt. My God! Honey Bee! The finger on the trigger slowly re- laxed, the body shook. Again tl'e Wlite Death was master. He took his toll. The gaunt face was upturned to the dying day: the eyes were closed. Down tle mouth trickled a tiny stream of blood, which made a tiny brown splash on the soft green grass. 'il knew you would get it.

Q 1'e:,,,, ' :Z The Taming of Wild Red Red hated the city now. Its charm had Worn off, the lustre of its bright lights had faded, and he longed to be back in the hot coun- try, the wind-swept plains, the lonesome prairie, the scorching desert, or Mexico, where he had always been, where life was little more than the flame of a flickering candleg where men lived and died with six-shooters at their hips. One of the little heathen's chief characteristics was that he despised the words, God, love and dear. l-le generally omitted the deaf, from letter headings, and used ul-lello, Kid, or something of that sort. instead. ' When Red's family decided to move to a little town in the moun- tains, Red thought that he could satisfy his bloody desires, for he was wild and the call of the sagebrush was upon him. l-le must either sat- isfy his desire or lose it. Whether he did or not, his life surprise, re- mains to be seen. ,TWas near midnight as the train slowed down and with a grind- ing of brakes came to a stop to let off two lone passengers, father and son. The cold air making him shiver, and the thin ice cracking under- neath his feet, added only to his discomfort as he trudged sleepily along at his father's heels, toward a dingy structure that bore the dignified name of l'lotel.,' Next morning Red was routed out of a warm bed and sent shiv- ering down to the dining room to enjoy a delicious breakfast of frozen sweet potatoes and shoe sole steaks, with sulphur cured apricot pie'for dessert. l-le did not enjoy the repast half as much as he did to see a man break open seven sweet potatoes and find each one a beautiful azure inside. The man worked himself into a sweat over a piece of meat, and remarked in a cool, casual way that he guessed that they must-a riddled this here steer with bullets, as he didnit see how they reduced him into steaks any other way. The gentleman then picked up a wedge of pie and had it almost to his mouth When, for some reason or other, he laid it back on the table with a decided shake of the head. Then flire was a pauseQ He lookeT:l'the table ov?fr6m Edie EET, and seeing nothing that wouldn't give him all the ailments known, and probably some that were unknown, he stuffed his mouth full of tooth- picks and shufHed out with an air of one 'swell f1lled.', It sure takes some man to do that, thought Red, without mak- ing a howl. Red was puffing up the hill, and as he neared the school house he saw some Wonderstruck country girls casting suspicious glances at him and signalling to their friends that he was coming right in, and that they had better look quick. The impression he got was not a favorable one: 5 so he slouched into tfe schorl room and slammed his books down on a desk, his idea being to bluff the teacfer out a little bit, so fe could have a good time while ste was getting wise to herself. fnd, true to his expectations, tle teacl er, a fair young lady of about twenty-two or three, came timidly toward him and inquired if he wfsfed to go to school there. Red said 'iYes,,' and added tl at his dad was boss of the crusher over there on the hill, and probably said under his breath that he was going to schcol there whether ste liked it or not. But right there he met his conqueror, the person who was going to tame him and make him look at things from a ci ilized point of view. f fter he had stayed at the hctel about two weeks, and before he had noticed any change in fimself, one of lis father's friends who was rooming there asked him point blank if he loved his teacher. Red stopped to think a moment. Vifhat a funny question to ask meg did I ever love anything or anybody, let alone a schocl teacher? Then, turning to the man, he blurted out, Not and retired to his room to think it over. Some weeks went by, when one night after school Red got his teacher mad-fighting mad. Her face was red and her fingers twitched as if they'd like to get into his hair. But no'-she was strong of char- acter and had a better plan to subdue this Wild lad from the desert. Red went home and spent the evening cooking up arguments to de- fend his case. He rehearsed it over and over in his mind, until he had, on the tip of his tongue, what he thought was about an hour's worth of the hottest argument that the little town had ever heard. But the next morning as Red strode defiantly into the schoolroom, ready to turn loose his supply of argument on the slightest provocation, he found her to be all smiles. She greeted him more like a lost and found brother than like an enemy awaiting the signal to ight. They had a good many such quarrels, but she always treated him as before, never mentioning their previous quarrels. After about three such quarrels Red would, in the course of an hour or so, leave feelings of regret. For this he hated himself, arguing that nothing but a sissy ever regretted anything. For of all the things he loathed was a come-pet-me-mother sort of a boy. But he was as powerless as a snake under the spell of its charmer to keep back tle feelings of shame and regret that insisted on coming to him after he had quarreled with her-his queenly school teacher. Red had not known before that he possessed feelings and senti- ments like other people, and when he found it out, it was his first step toward being tamed. He soon became conscious of lter wonderful personality and charm- ing beauty, .and would sit and look at her by the hour, thinking- dreaming. After school was out Red often played in the road near the school house, and would lose his ball or some imaginary article in the weeds, so as to have an excuse for hanging around, incidentally getting one more sweet look, as he thought she looked prettier when her responsi- bilities were laid aside for the day. One Saturday, while Red and a couple of boy friends were out herd- ing cattle, they broke into a honey house belonging to the town forest ranger. During the week following, vague rumors were afloat through- out the village about the big robbery. But before another Saturday put in its appearance one of the boys, after a little grilling on the part of his mother, aided by the forest ranger, confessed and painted the story in all its vividnessg the breaking of the lock with a pick, the stealing of the money and the caving in of some beehives in the apiary. I-le made a clean breast of it, told everything and gave each one their due share of blame. As was a long standing custom, a dance was held every other Sat- urday night. This dance happened to come when the news of the honey stealing was still fresh, and Red, who lived within a block of the dance hall, came, as usual, to stand around and look on. It was about eleven o'clock, and Red was standing in the front door- way. There was an intermission, and the old forest ranger, who was known by all, began making the rounds, supposedly congratulating his friends, as was his custom. But Red noticed that as he spoke to each one in turn he would nod his head toward the door and would look that way with an expression of astonishment on their faces. Of course, they may have just happened to look toward the front door, but Red was quick to hint suspicion and clever in finding out if 'it was he that was being suspicioned. He figured that, after they had looked his way and nodded he could get around to the back door before the human newspaper would reach the next person. This he did. The old ranger talked with another ,lady awhile, nodded toward the front door and resumed talking. But the old lady said something to him, whereupon he looked toward the front door, around the room, and then nodded toward the back door. The lady gave one satisfied look and resumed talking. Red waited and saw many other people look toward the back door, following the ranger's nod. Then, stepping out into the darkness, Rediaid to himself. i'Some guys mightJALanLtl1e clopein short- hand to be satisfied, but not for this gink. Guess lim queered with the school teacher now-didn't care so much about the rest of iem, but there was sure something about her that-well, it was sure hard luck. Time went by and their friendship remained the same. She never even mentioned the honey episode, but, of course, she knew, because the old man was always glad of the chance to tell her anything. So finally, becoming indignant and not being able to understand her power of con- trolling another person's'mind, Red not only asked her if she knew, but told her the story. She pretended that she had never heard anything about it before, took absolutely no interest in it whatever, and quickly changed the subject. Red could not understand. He wondered what kind of a human being she was. But hers was the master mind, which controlled others at will, but always for their good. The last day of the term came and the teacher looked nervous. Probably she feared that Red would spoil the big play that was to come off that afternoon by ruining his comedy part, as he had threatened to ruin it, when in one of his cussed moods. The play had been widely advertised many days ahead of time. A beautifully painted poster was placed in the Palmdale postoffice, fifteen miles away. Some of the people came as far as twenty miles and ar- rived in the morning. Teacher grew very nervous as she realized that her reputation as a school teacher rested in the hands of each individual. But the play came off, was a grand success, and they all did justice to their parts. She was happy now, because she was to leave town next day with the feeling that every one within miles around was her friend. She had well earned the satisfaction of that feeling. Next day, when Red came home from work at noon, he learned that she had visited his house and said that she would like to have him see her off at the station that evening. It was a little after sunset, and the shadows of the mountains were fast creeping over the valley as Red strolled leisurely clown to the station. Almost the entire town population, about fifteen, were standing around in a group, with her in the center, chatting gaily. Red regretted her leaving for other reasons than did the rest of the crowd. Some of the young single men probably thought they no longer had a chance. The old ranger may have looked upon her going like he would if a daughter of his own was going to some far off place for an indefinite length of time. But the feelings of Red were different from any of these. It would be hard to describe the way he felt, as he had never felt that way before. It can simply be said that he was not himself. The place, without lier, he thought, would be void of life, because she was the ginger belle of the town. Red did not look upon her as a mother, a teacher, or a sweetheart: but merely, as he expressed it, as a friend. But, of course, his feelings were deeper than those of friendship, only Red did not use the other term. The shrill whistle of the train took off the gay expression gf the group and put on a more serious one. The school teacher spoke a few parting words with an old lady with whom she had been staying, kissed lqer goodby, and then did the same to her young lady chum. At this juncture the old ranger put his arm around her neck and, saying Boys, you don't know what's goodf' did what they would all like to have done but didn't dare. With that Red, who had stood quite unnoticed by the crowd, turned and left. But it worked out like the plot of a play. Her chum followed him, and before he had gone ten yards caught him by the arm. By this time the farewells were spoken: she led him back and said in a coaxing way, Come on, Redg what you feeling blue about? The teacher, as she came toward him, said, Here you are. I'm going to kiss you too. Red saw black as she did. It was a real kissg not one of those pecking kind that he was used to getting from his grand- ma and other dlo women relatives. With the call of all aboardf, and a whistle, the train started off, and as it did so a huge lump began rising in Red's throat. It rose higher and higher, and when the train rounded the bend and disap- peared from view it fairly choked him, and he stumbled half blinded home. In his boyish mind he was thinking how nice it would be if the train could only be wrecked, cars piled up, broken glass everywhere, screams of pain, etc., and he could get word of it somehow, go flying down on a handcar and rescue her from the burning wreck. But-of course, he didn't want to see anybody get hurt. This is only Red's half of the story. If her half could be gotten it also might make an interesting tale. ' SAM MUSTAIN. l Liifffr ff, lt Q.. X ,2 ' ' W , ' 0 XVYIIV E XX A Christmas Story In June She was a New York girl, and just now a very much puzzled girl. Here it was the twenty-fifth of December and the air of the South- ern California village was as balmy as it was in the East in June. She thought it over for a while and decided that she enjoyed it fora change. But for a regular diet she thought that she preferred New York with its blizzards, skating and sleighing. A young man was sitting beside her on the hotel porch. l-le Wasn't Wondering about Christmas, skating, or anything of the sort. l-lis eyes and mind dwelled upon one thing, and that one thing was the girl. I-le owned a large ranch somewhere up the valley, but he had been in town ever since the girl had arrived. If he received any in- come from this ranch it was wholly the fault of his employees. They were sitting on the porch of an old hotel, Which, if one could believe the landlord, had been famous in its day. But now the village was the type of the usual pueblo-sleepy, dusty and monotonous. Buildings sagged, the streets were lumpy and even the people them- selves looked as though they had been prosperous in days gone by, but now were living on dried meat and chilis. A woman selling sweets passed them, her tray on her head. A blind beggar tapped, tapped his way past the hotel on his way to a saloon. ln the old townhall, a short distance away, a clock began to strike. The clock sounded to Miss Sutton not as an ordinary clock, but as an enchanted clock Whose chimes were sweet music. She turned to the man: Am I awake? If not, please don't awaken me for I don't wish to be battling with the blasts of winter again. O the warmth and the splendor of it all! H The man seemed suddenly to take on the spirit of a man going to battle. Then if you like it so well, the climate, people and all won'ti lt does please me, she remakred coolyg, it's so charmingly inter- esting, you know. Everything, even the brown-legged children and shriveled-up old Womenf, I declare, you make me feel like a pinati.', The man leaned back against a pillar, resolved not to say a word until parting time. What's a pinati?,' asked the girl sweetly. She talked much nicer when they conversed on a neutral subject. This trick of heris was turning the man's hair gray: or it would have if he had been a little older. A pinati is nothing more nor less than a stuffed scarecrow. I suppose you might call it a doll. They use them in Christmas entera tainments. They are hung just above the children's heads. Then they fthe childrenl are given sticks. Then the children start banging around and soon it's raining sweets. I forgot to say the pinatis were stuffed with sugar plums. Oh, by the way, as it is Christmas, the gift that I want lS Goodness gracious! I had forgotten all about wishing you a Merry Christmas. Let me think. l-low do they say it? 'Felis--' HDon't, the man begged. uDon,t say that unless you mean it. The only way-that I can possibly have a Merry Christmas is to have you. I've been waiting and trying to say this for two solid hours, and nothing short of judgment will prevent my fm? Ujuanita, Ricarditoln A little, brown-faced old woman came in sight from around the corner. She was so old that she needed a staff to Walk at all. She arrived at the hotel and sank on the steps very much exhausted. Her hair was as white as snow, her face was seamed and looked more as through it might be parchment instead of skin that covered it. l-ler hands were withered and not far from useless. They trembled when they grasped her stick. Ujuanita! Ricardito! Hurry on, you laggardsln she called down the street. Around the corner came a dog with two puppies following labor- iously in her wake. The oldest dog looked as worn out as her mistress. Panting and tired she dropped at the old woman's feet. The girl leaned impulsively toward the old woman: Have you traveled a long way, little mother? You look tired and hotf' The old woman looked at her and gave a quick little bow. She did not speak at once. Finally she said, 'LSeven miles, thanks to the saints for bringing me here. She lowered her voice, Christmas, Christmas and I had to walk all this way on Christmas. There are five little ones at home, my grandchildren. The father is dead and the mother, my daughter, is ill. I must provide. So l came today to see if some one would not buy a puppy for a peso. The little ones want a pinati so badly. A servant of the hotel came to the doorway. The master will buy your puppies for twenty-five centavos. They are not worth even th t. Aa Whatf! ..MyiRicardito and.my Carlos worth nofmqre lan i l twenty-five centavos? My poor little puppies. Right gladly would I sell myself but there is no one who wants an old woman like -mef' The girlis eyes were moist. Her hand felt for the man's. Oh, well, if I must, you may have them. They are worth much more than that. The servant stooped for the dog, but the man quietly told him to drop them. The servant obeyed and walked off, muttering some- thing about the foolishness of Americans. Will you sell them to me for five pesos? uSenor, she gasped, usurely you jest with mef' l-le put the gold piece into her hand. No, little mother, fere is the money. May the dearest wish of your heart come true, senor. May you never want a thing that you do not get. Good-bye, puppies, you've a kind master. But, little mother, you don't understand. l want you to lake care of them. l hope to be going on a long journey soon. When we- l-come back l will want to see themf' mlqhe old Woman understood. She fell upon her knees and kissed his hand. Then, with the money clasped tightly in her list and the dogs following at fer feels, she hurried to the market place to buy a pinati. The man watched the old woman hobble down the street. The girl nestled close to him and whispered, Felices Pascuasf' Ain't It Awful, Girls? The warning note has sounded loud and clear, And ultra-stylish. modes are now taboo. The maids whose usillyi' dress brings forth a sneer, Must dress in simple middies trimmed with blue. A teacher who o'er freshmen proud holds sway, Sailed forth upon the campus, mischief bent, Espied the fashion show there on display And to her views on modern dress gave vent, It seemed to stand her very liair on end To see those usweet young things she long had known Now wear their skirts so tigft they scarce can bend And often let an ankle chic be shown. Their hair all decked with puffs was a disgrace, Eclisped by nothing told in ancient tale. The loads of stuff they put upon their face Would put to flight the most admiring male. She deemed it proper something quick be done And started forth in earnest search of gore. She sternly put lier foot on honest fun, And in her noon hour class she held the floor. Now girls, if you your teachers, love would keep, Dispense with all those things that are taboo. Go cast them sadly on the briney deep, And dress in simple umiddiesn trimmed with blue. GROVE BROWN.

A, U.,-Manual Arts broke World record in 8-man 220 relay, second in broad jump, third in low hurdles and third in two-mile. Southern California v The Southern California championship was held on the Y, M. C. A. field on the 28th of March. There were so many entries that heats in various races were run in the morning, and it was in one of these heats that our chances for the Cup were sadly lessened. ln the trial heats in the low hurdles Langdon Smead was run- ning in the lane next to V. Murry of Grange. ln some unaccount- able manner Murry tripped and fell in Smead's lane, and rather than walk on Murry with his spiked shoes, fell and received six ldvely spike holes in his knee, beside sliding along on his hip on the cinclers for about three yards. 'f Thus it was that we went over to see the finales in the afternoon with a deep foreboding: and it was not until after the high jump that our hopes rose and we saw a chance. Ray Yerkes ran a close second to Beebe in the mile and annexed three points for Manual. Ray's performance was wonderful when we consider that Beebe is the man that was one-half a yard lfehind Berry of Redlands, when the latter set up a new interscholastic world's record in the mile at the Stanford meet. The next three points to our good were made by George Manrer in the pole vault, when he cleared eleven feet seven inches. Eighteen entries were mad in th pol, so you can see that our little Silent George Maurer is there. After the high jump the entire Manual Arts rooters' section went wild. Neil Creighton won this event with a leap of five feet eleven and one-half inches, beating Anderson of Santa Fe and the rest of the crack jumpers of Southern California. After Neil's achievement Man- ual Arts had a total of eleven points, and the relay was all that re- mained. If we won the relay the meet was ours. . We rose, shaking with excitement as the different teams picked their lanes. 'Thirteen teams started. Dutch Blair, our diminutive football captain, picked the iifth lane. The teams came to their marks and formed in a seething mass as they entered the first curve. Just as the half-way mark was reached we saw a flying figure extract itself from the bunch and tear into the last curve and straight-away. Mosby of Long Beach was a yard in the rear. Dutch sent Bill Penn away on a perfect flying start, and Bill ran and ran till he lengthened the lead to two yards. Ray Hughes ran the third lap, and Ray also did some ground covering, and game little Repath a four-yard lead. Now, there is a young man down at Long Beach l-ligh by the name of Work, and this same young man is about the fastest human being in any high-school around here, and he was the player of our funeral march. Repath started with a four-yard lead, and as long as he was on the curve he held that lead, but when he hit the straight-away his little legs couldn't cover enough ground, and Wrak slowly drew up and passed him by a scant half yard. That was the way Long Beach won the meet with fifteen points, While Manual Arts was tied for second with Anaheim with thirteen points. . A. A. U. The South Pacific Branch of the Amateur Athletic Union held their annual track and held meet on the Oxy Field, April lth. Sev- eral special events were staged for the benefit of grammar and high- school athleies. Among these events was a high-school hundred and a high-school eight-man relay. , Among the entries in the I00 were Wark of Long Beach, New- by of Pasadena, Dell and Jameson of l... A, and Repath and Penn of Manual Arts. Nobody expected either of the latter to even place, but Bill Penn got away with a perfect start and passed the bunch for Erst place in the good time of l0.2. ' The broad jump was an open event, and Langdon Smead had to compete with college and club entrants. But nothing daunted, Lang went ahead and won second with a jump of twenty-two feet one and one-quarter inches. l-loward Drew of U. S. C., the cham- pion sprinter of the World, won this event, beating Lang only two or three inches. Manual Arts also showed the athletic world that they had a two- miler here in the form of Blick Bangeter. We all knew Blick was a Marathoner, but he sprang a big surprise when he Won third place in the long grind, out of nine entries. The relay race was the next to the last event of the day, and when we learned that this team had broken the World record we all went home satisfied with Manual's work. Relay Team Manual Arts has the fastest eight-man relay team in the world, and we are justly proud of the record they have made. This record was made in an official A. A. U. meet. The record is now three minutes, seven and one-fifth seconds, which is three seconds better than the previous record held by the l.os ft-ngeles I-ligh School team of l9l0. Only Manual and Long Beach came to their marks in this race, and it was a fight to the tapeg and we Won by a good fifteen yards. The team ran in the following order: George Blair, William Penn, Frank- lin l-larper, Arthur Gillman, Martin Zolle, Erwin Werner, Charles Repath and Ray l-lughes. The average for each lap of a full two hundred and twenty yards was twenty-three and two-fifths seconds. What We Think of Our Team - Manual Arts has just passed thru the greatest track season of their lives. Every one connected in any way with this team has worked long and hard, and as a result of their combined efforts Manual Arts has the premier track team of Southern Californiag and the chances are greatly in our favor for the championship of the State. . The team is one of the best balanced teams ever seen in action on cinders in this part of the State. Every event was ably taken care of by one or more stars. Every member of the team was far above the averageg a man that made a letter this year was a star and could have a place on any high-school team in the United States. - W 'U n o O v D3 1 o o -G O az -CI .9 ID OO1!'d'f!'1!'NNvI'Y!'v'd'fI Q'v 1-u-4r-n-4'-lv-u-4'-n-av-n-uv-nv-11-4 czoacacncsoacnczcncncaoucnca 2-n-n-41-u-ov-n-n-n-4'-n-4,-n-uv-4 o6l0C7vrTocToo'e'5ocToo'o6oc7v-Tv-Mrfoo' 'NNv-lv-emcqv-HNNN DSN bf-'.-C1-CI-S cs.-C1 2 5322222 5 ' Gi .-C! ,Q -u 5355255 N 656565. 2 2522532 - Q9 9' . . . : 0 gawgasgmaewzs 2 cv 2 5 .gg 5 si iv 5, EI- .EEEEGE fu M355 5562236 s-4:ev1: 2 sgasss isgesgw 2 EHEEEJQEQEEEQE s2::s21:fwsseE g2ega22weU22EU QN34'Nx::'gGJGJ5g 525 DEQQDSQQQE5 I' m.',-:Gmc Q Q4b2444E4E554f cu...-.gg-.'cg...,.. waQw4Q2w156U55 szzzsisegfasaz f'25g'2s's f'Q0ofSmWW :-o3,a2:U CDU ,-. :Io wwQ'g,.CI.S! 5EE,5Eww wmgvo i82l5Q333EgWEE - Us:s:fQga:'.wm3'HCl9.9i E QSSQQSBBEPPWNH o gmwggaassqaq-3gg4q-3-:Q-3 ' 3 ww 'wa: '.E.E'Qaa'-1-lebwg Q5 v-ecofflfflcoe 24-4 9-ew-ea: QI..

As a result of this meet Ralph MCC-innis is the proud possesser of Mr. Quinten's cup. Beswick Trophy Langdon Smead is again winner of Mr. Beswick's trophy. To gain this cup Smead had to earn sixty-one points, in dual meets, for Manual Arts. However, the trophy this year is not a medal, as it was heretofore, but a lare, twelve-inch silver cup. And Lang is not for- tunate enough to keep this cup more than a year, because it is a perpetual cup, and any one that gets it to keep must win it twice in succession. Pentathlon ' Tuesday, May the fifth, was the day the first Pentathlon was staged. There were five events of speed, stamina and strength. Lang- don Smead won the gold medal with a score of 3734 out of a possible 5000. Neil Creighton took second with 3605, George Bluitt third with 35l7 and Kill Kendig fourth with 3370. Our coach, Mr. Fritsch, has inaugurated this idea, and he wishes to make it an annual affair.
