No school could have done more for its students. This year has been full of interesting events, pleasant associations and solid work. Never be- fore have school interests, school loyalty and school spirit mounted so high as during the past year. This years enrollment dropped considerably from that of the pre- ceding years. On the surface this did not seem complimentary, but in reali- ty, it proved a blessing. The loyal ones stayed with us. In former years Manual has been overcrowded and she has been taxed to her uttermost to care for all the students. Two sessions were necessary to so lengthen the days program as to enable pupils to get the subjects they desired and needed. This was detrimental to the thing which we are now so proud of, and which we feel we have nearly to perfectioneschool spirit. One session is sufficient to accommodate the entire school. The change has had many good results. We have become better acquainted and are more united than ever before. Many other things have helped to bring about this happy state of affairs. Among the most important of these is that the faculty and students have been closer to each other. They have stood shoulder to shoulder and have given their loyal support to every school activity. Our principal and viceuprincipal have long realized that the pupils are often in a position to see the needs of the school. The students have been en- couraged to give their ideas. Every pupil at Manual has some pleasant mem- ory of these two men. He remembers the kindness and consideration shown him when he most needed them. He remembers the advice that helped in times of perplexity and trouble. He remembers the cheerful, helpful talks about hie Man: for the future. He remembers their inclination to listen to 21 ' ' - n sumrestion to which he has given serious thought. Indeed, .iiiledafejliisotlezilliuire blitbthat the office is the center of all of our boasted Manual s irit. It is indeed the heart of the school. Soc1et1es, whlch went out of school ' c . t in blossomind forth. - . 111 196; rllixiziiiLITE, the firsbt and only high school weeldy 1n the City, has done much in melting and solidifying to unity all the interests of th1s great and glorious school. The parties, the playsathe contests, the debates, our music, the student representative, the assemblies and athletics. all have aroused unusual interest and have found a strong support. They, in turn, have done their part in making this a great year. So now we, a group of fourteen students, members of the three upper classes, have been Chosen by you, the student body, to. put forth a NAUTILUS to represent and picture the nineteenth year of student life 1n 'this school. Let. us say that we fully appreciate and acknowledge the responsibllity of lonr. posmon. To put forth an Annual of this kind, we had to study the school act1v1ties of the past ten months most carefully. After doing this, we found that to record all the interesting happenings was practically impossible. So we had to cut down and omit much that has ordinarily been recorded. We have tried to select events which stand out and outshine the rest. We have tried to be impartial and un- prejudiced. We admit our judgment has not always been correct. We are only human beings, but we have done our best toward making this year's NAUTILUS a fair representative of the years work. In looking over the pages of this book, we ask you ltto regard our virtues kindly and to treat our errors blindly? We wish to express our thanks to the many people who, by their encourage- ment, their criticism, their advice and their kindly suggestions, have done much toward making this Annual what it is. We wish to thank the school as a whole for its loyal and active support. If in after years, the pages of this book bring back a connected chain of thoughts and happy memories to you, we, the staff of the NAUTILUs, shall feel that our labors have been amply rewarded. We now leave it in your hands. In closing, we ask you all-Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmeneto join us in the following: Here,s to the memor I of dear old Manual, whose faculty and student body stand for ethics and learning, school spirit and school loyalty. We, thy students, do pledge our hearts, our souls and our sacred honor to love and protect thee, our school, and be loyal to thee forever!

Anmderate sprinkling was Viewed mildly; hut the contagion spread from the planning of the court house to the establishing of the W'oman's Exchange. The Progress Club, in its zeal for fame and a place in the annals of Collinsville Instory, had Ohl Glory lowered from the Hag-pole 111 the park, and every member aided 111 n1endn1g the honored and wind-whipped tatters. VVhereupon its rival, the VVomans Club, by means of raids 011 the club treasury, proudly presented to the 'town a large new one: Undaunted, the Progress Club retaliated by bringing to 11ght some vague assoc1atlons. coneerned w1th the Hag and presenting both Hag and assoe1at1ons to the State Historical Soc1ety. HPut Collinsville 011 the mapf was the slogan on every club woman's tongue. EX-Judge McGallihan,.publisher and occasional editor of the Collinsville Conner, when not engaged 1n stump speeches 011 his various political campaigns, heamed plaeldly on the c1v1e. efforts and rewarded the club workers with tributes 1n the form of a Iew very land edltorlals, often written hastily in his dusty sanc- tum before 1eav1ng 1n the evenlng, or, perhaps, oftentimes as a space-fillen, when a. new 11ne of campalgn engrossed hls already much-engrossed brain.

Irene Xietgahihan stepped out, disappeared within and rushed unceremoniously into the eii'itmi.:il office. The Judge looked up from a mass of campaign maps.

Gardner is going to ofhcially announce, in a few days, her candidacy for nomination for legislator from this district? Miss MeGallihan delivered her news and relapsed into merriment. The editors jaw dropped, as he gazed at his daughter. Then, with a half sigh of relief, he settled back in his chair. ttRenief, he said, paternally, KtRenie, you go try your jokes on your ma. She,s not as busy as I am? Irenets merriment subsided. ttThafs itfi she said in an injured tone. ttWhen I try to help out your paper, you think Itm trying to make it into a comic supple- ment. 111 be going, then, although I,Ve missed out now on all the games on the new club court? The Judges curiosity caused him to weaken a little. ItHow did you get the idea ?,t he asked. - ttYou mean the news, I suppose. Well, the Progress Club met at Barrowis home this afternoon. I thought I,d stop there and pick up Norrie and then drive out to join the bunch at the club. I went around the side of the house, knowing that Congress was in session inside. Just as I passed by the south window, I heard the thunderbolt announced which you have chosen to disregard. And now, father editor, I judge that the interview is at an end? NIf such a thing is true? ruminated the Judge, III wonder what becomes of Gardner. himself. He would have stood a pretty good chance this year for getting to be auditor. Itts ten to one that he doesn,t know about that candidate business. Thereis going to be a slight discord in family polities,'I,rn thinking? chuckled the Judge. hDonit you believe itf, admonished his daughter, as she edged to the door. WHe's tired of politics anyway. And youill be the first one to campaign for the future legislator from District 34? And leaving this information to be assimi- lated, Miss McGrallihan stepped again into her green motor. When the next days Courier appeared, however, the: ttVVith Our Subscribersi, column occupied its usual space. Nor was any other space devoted to any men- tion of Mrs. G'rirdneris invasion into politics. Judge McGallihan kept his counsel, so did his daughter. If they showed an unusual interest in Mrs. Gardner and the Progress Club, they made no sign; but neither did they betray inordinate surprise when, on the following Saturday, Mrs. Gardner sent the Courier an official and- nouneement of her candidacy. Irene, who at times had acted spontaneously as society etlitoiy was promptly given the honor of writing up the news article on the front page. ,Tis a dizzy climb to heights like these, me friendsfy she bur- lesqued to the office force, ' and 'tis not sure I am that ,twill not last? .

The following week two members of the XVomanls Club ventured to an- nounce their willingness to serve on the school board. the movement for a city thlean-Up Day? Irene somewhat apologetically explained to her father that, since one of the McGallihan family was connected with the Woman's Club, it would be quite within the bounds of propriety to accord a little more puthIty to thls movement. llAll right? agreed the Judge.

It was taken as a matter-of-fact in the McGallihan household that the Judge would seek the nomination for state senator. Running f the Judge; if he failed to be elected, it was his custom of editing the Courier with as much interest as ever and with a desire to make up for time lost.

The candidates for the school board could not help a liking for the Collinsville Courier and its work- ers, in view of the sparkling tribute paid to them and their noble motives in desir- ing to work for the improvement of the school system. Mrs. Gardner frankly declared that her interests would reflect those of the pledged her its strongest support in her campaign. As a result both the Progress and the Womanis Clubs unlted in their approval of the stand taken by the Courier and formed the ttCoIlmsville Womanis League? .

Irene, given full sway, succeeded in tempering the whole spirit of the Courier to suit the standard hinted at by Mrs. Gardner As the time drew near for the primary elections she increased the tone of the Courier until each issue was expectantly awaited for.

And whatls more, he,s going to get them? The Judge did. Not only was the name of McGallihan hrst in the results of the nominations for senator, but the three women won their nominations by a satisfactory majority Just a little bit of diplomacy, Mrs. Gardner told herself, Hwill accomplish wonders.

For thousands of years it has been developing, and only a few years ago did it reach its present state of perfection. Let us go back about five thousand years and come up with it to the present time, through all its stages of development, from the hieroglyphics on the crumbling ruins of ancient Egypt and Babylonia to the book-lined walls of some great library. The hieroglyphics comprised the most primitive system of written communica- tion. This system of writing was first used in Egypt and was composed of shapes of objects, making descriptive pictures. Gradually these became more and more simplihed. In all, there were about six hundred signs, but often two or more shapes were combined, thus forming ideographs, or word pictures. In ancient Egypt, on monuments, the pictorial charactersalone were used, and in this use the hieroglyphics remained distinct. However, as it has always been said, ttnecessity is the mother of invention, and in consequence a simpler method was soon devised. When it became necessary to write books, a more rapid method was required, though the first books known to history were written in the year 2400 B. C. and were merely clay tablets. During the first dynasty, the hieroglyphs were greatly simplitied, even on the monuments whenever the pen was used instead of the- chisel. When the Egyptians commenced using papyrus, a more cursive style was adopted; one that could be used with ease and rapidity, but one which bore no closer, if so close, a resem- blance to the original pictorial hieroglyphs than our cursive script does to our printed letters. By most people of the other countries, it was called the Greek hieratic, but the Egyptians themselves called it the documental, or epistolatory, style, for discoverers and analysts have shown that very rapid writing was necessitated by the law courts and ofhces. From this necessity it developed, having been originated in the seventh century B. C. By 400 B. C., it had as- sumed a. convenient form and came into such general use that it was employed for everything excepting religious literature. It was therefore called the de motic, that is, the popular style, or the enchorial, which is the writing of the people. Although a form of the demotic style was found in all periods, in re ality it was a later development of the hieratic. The latest demotic inscription was dated in 453 A. D. Even though a scattered knowledge possibly existed later, it was submerged with its contemporary, heathenism, by the reproaches and subsequent reign of Christianity. Soon after Christianity began its reign in the land of the Egyptian heathens, it became a great desire of the Christians to spread the teachings of the sacred writ- ings among all people, even the most ignorant. In this way originated the Coptic writing aml literature. This Coptic writing was brought into existence during the third century and was written with twenty-four Greek and seven demotic letters. For fourteen hundred years the wonderful language of hieroglyphics was lost to the whole world, for it was not until the sixteenth century that the peoples of linmpe became interested in this lost knowledge. French expedition to Egypt, headed bv Napoleon, was the foundation of the deciphering of this written com- illttnlriltltm. whereby was brought forth the knowledge of many Egyptian monu- ment 1.3: titaeriptions. Among these was the inscription of Rosetta, a most famous 1.-2. 21:hivl:1 nttem'anl was proved to be the means of decipherment, and by which 11.11.1111 1.1? 9m: l.:.1.o1.1'letlge was restored.

MYRTLE DAVIS, 16. 33 Ellie Gnliin Ollnrk IJ-Innwr Enrhpa Nruillv, 17 I have a friend, James Cardell, who was once a deteetivel, but has Since retired from the service. He early formed a habit of collectmg 1nterest1ng odds and ends that he ran across in his work. Hence he pronnsed one flay to tell me the story of a most extraordinary bullet that hung 1n lllS rooms 1n a rather conspicuous place. . . h'About ten years agofl he began, tll was called on to .IIIVCStlgELtC a inurder which had been committed in some apartments on Fifty-ninth street. The call was turned in by the housekeeper as soon .as she dlscovered it. When we ar- rived nothing had been touched. The v1ct1m sat huddled up 111 a Icha1r and a book which he had been reading lay on the floor. He was a stuthous appear- ing young man about twenty-seven years old, and was fairly well dressed. The book he had been reading was one on Analytical Chennstry, and from a card in his pocket we found that his name was George XVllhamson and that he was employed by a large oil company in this city. We found. as we had supposed, from the book that he worked in their laboratorles. The manager 1nformed US that he was a very earnest worker and one of their best men, while the. neigh- bors in the next apartment told us that he seldom went out 1n the evenings or had any callers. He was always reading or studying. ttHis rooms were very comfortably furnished. He had a table, a lounge, several easy chairs and The Clockf This clock was made from an ebony cof- fin and it was several hundred years old. At each hour a door swung open disclosing an engraved gold skull that cheerfully lbit oft the time; that is, it opened its mouth, a note was struck and the mouth snapped shut. It repeated this operation once for each stroke. The 1lower half of the clock opened, but contained merely the works. There was nothing of interest to us here save in the upper left-hand corner a small 1dial like any clock's and a shelf on which rested a brass box containing five cartridges with bullets identical with that one on the wall. The dial pointed to 8 dclock and the box was made to hold six cartridges; that is, one was missing. Near the box was a tube in which the cartridges exactly titted. KtAs it was now a quarter till 3 in the afternoon, one of the men suggested that we set the dial at 3 and wait and see what happened. This we did and then sat down to await the time. When it came the door swung open as usual and the skull behaved as always, except that simultaneously with the last closing of its mouth there came a peculiar click, and for the first time we noticed that in its left eye socket was a round, smooth hole that greatly resembled a pistol barrel. - ltWe could do no more that day, but had to wait until the coroner performed hlS autopsy. What he extracted from the young man's head was a bullet that exactly fitted the hole in.the skullls eye and. was identical with the other five in the box. It hacl struclc him squarely in the middle of the forehead. liHastily dISpatchlng a man for dummy, we slid a bullet in the tube and set the dial ain'hour ahead. When the dummy arrived we arranged it in the chair as nearly like the young man had been sitting as possible. At exactly the time set the tloors swung open, the clock struck and on the last stroke a bullet thudded Into the dummyls head. It did not come from the clock with a loud report, but with a sort of a chug. It merely happened, apparently, that the chair was so perfectly 1n range of the bullet. ' llNow, of course, you will ask who loaded it. As far as I've been able to find out, no one knows.

Before V101 V they reach this age, their muscular fibres contain a large per cent of water and a a are tender and immature. Is it any wonder that you see children with curved 3 spines and other deformities? Tuberculosis is not uncommon among Children factory workers. It seems as if there could not be a worse thing than having children work in cotton mills, tobacco factories and woolen mills. But there is a greater evil yet than any of these. Just try to imagine children working in mines, thousands a of feet below the surface of the earth where sunshine and fresh air never pene- ; i i trate and where darkness and dampness reign supreme. It seems almost impos- i sible, yet these awful crimes exist. It is almost unbearable for men to work in these places, yet imagine children doing this kind of work. You ask why they work in these mines. Because they must work or starye. They choose the work in most cases, and suffer more than they would if they staryed to death. Chlld labor goes hand in hand with disease, crime anrl dependence. De- plorable conditions exist in the southern cotton mills. In the South, where there is a general lack of vagraney laws, the poor are lazy and depend on their off- spring for support.

Child labor laws and child labor committees have been a God- send to the universe. The entire situation was summed up by A. J.MCKe1way 0f the National Child Labor Committee. He said: NThe child is the Saviour 0f the race. What we do for the child, for his protection, for his education, for his train- ing for the duties of manhood, for securing the rights and prolonging the period Of childhood, is the measure of what we shall accomplish for the race that is to be. The ancient Hebrew prophet drew a picture of the golden age of the world, that with the Hebrew and Christian is still in the future, a picture that has never been surpassed in literature, and the central figure on the canvas is that of the little child. The sticking child shall play on the hole of the asp. And when the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, the leopard shall lie down with the kid, the lion shall eat straw like the 0X, the cow and the bear shall feedea little child shall lead themY And so it must be with this civilization of ours if it is to endure? Forces of leonine violence, forces of serpentine cunning, forces of wolfish greed, as well as the forces of peaceful industry and domestic labor must consent to be led in peaceful procession, while walking before them, drawing their might with his innocence, and his helplessness and his promise, is the figure of the little child. God speed the day! God hasten the coming of the age when the child shall not be driven but shall lead; when the child shall not be the prey of the giant forces that are now contending for the mastery, but shall quell and tame their Violence and inaugurate the reign of universal brotherhood. gardimhe Oh, how I tire Of the city's roar; iirer it wearies me more and more.

Elliott, '15 In the summer of 1897, before Manual formally issued forth into the high school world, there was fostered in the brains of G. B. Morrison, the principal at that time, and J. M. Kent, our present instructor in steam and electricity, the idea of a short high school course in steam and electrical engineering. The idea was to give the boy who could not go to college some conception of the main developments in those two great lines of work. This xx as an absolute innovation on the part of these two, but Manual itself was an innovation, so the subject was 111 harmony w1th the school. The course was so arranged as to carry on the work taught in the Physical Science and Mathematical Departments; in fact, to give practical applications of the theories and rules learned in those departments. Three tears of mathe matics and one year of physics were required before the pupil'was allowed to enter this class. Before this course was developed, a great manv hox's left high school without the slightest conception of why they were conipelled to stuilv physics. For instance, many of the boys had learned ttBoyleis law and dismissetl it with the thought of, nWhat do I care what gases will do under pressure .3 for lhey saw no practical application of the meaning of that law.

This includes the developing of the steam engine in all its phases, its valve mechanism, its eccentric, its safety valves. its governor, in fact, all of its workingwparts, and the student is taught the reason for everything in connection with its development. Then comes the examination of the indicator diagrams, the feed pumps, construction of the steam boiler from the standpoint of safety and efficiency, the feed water heaters, the condensers, the heating systems, the Corliss engine, and every phase of the power plant which the time permits is taken up Finally the student is ready, with the addition of a little practical experience, to become an engineer, not an expert, to be sure but a good engineer This course is the finishing touch to the work in mathematics and physics and any boy who goes away from high school without these two subjects has lost some important information which would have proved invaluable to him in' later life, if for nothing else than to understand what is going:r on about him in everyday life. i 1111 ,1 1' '11 Ellnrgittg 0111111125 111. 4111111111, '17 If one should make a trip through the Forging Department while it is in action, he would be interested in seeing a number of amateur blacksmiths busily at work; some of. them making ice tongs, some hatchets and some making other articles, such as bolts, chisels, hammers and tin shears.

That in a broad sense is about what the course in Domestic Art does for the girl. Success in Domestic Art comes only when one has a clear understanding of ones needs and the intelligence and power to accom- plish definite ends. Domestic Art work is trying to mold the girls for after life. We all know how we are drawn toward those possessing simple, unaffected man- ners. Just so may our manner of dress influence others in their dress. The Domestic Art work shows how this simplicity in dress may be obtained and thus starts the girl on the right road to bring her happiness in her future life. Money must be taken into consideration in Choosing one's wardrobe. The girl is taught to make the most attractive clothes at least cost. It is just as much a girls part in life to know how to properly spend money as it is a man's to earn the money. There are three statements, which, if followed, will bring about the best results in dressmaking. They are: First, have regard for the cost; second, Choose the best style; third, take the occasion of the wearing into consideration. When a girl can make practically anything with her needle, she takes pleas- ure in making her home more pleasing to her family. Those who make homes are shaping souls to live a pure existence, but those who make oan houses are some of manls worst enemies. So with this new training in the schools, the young people are learning elements of homemaking which will help them when they take up lifels burdens. 42 what se in one :om- life. nan- The thus The st as ianis iring . the into leas- nnes .uses ,the vhen 3111mm; The first year of Manual Training for boys consists of more advanced work in joinery, 50 well begun by the grade schools.

A few other representa- tives of the Animal Kingdom occupied prominent positions, foremost among which was the beaver. However, the attention of the class was centered upon the birds. Placed upon the tables were eleven cases, each containing several species of different bird families. The Woodpeckers, Warblers, Flycatchers. Sparrows, Blatckbirds, Swallows, Thrashers, Grosbeaks and Vireos were among those rep- resented. Specimens of the Oriole, Meadow Lark, Goldfinch, Scarlet Tanager, Brown Thrasher and Purple Martin were especially beautiful. During the time the room was being photographed, a moth was forcing its way out of its cocoon. But its efforts were quite outdone by the Hashlight and the Class knew nothing of its appearance until the next day. This is onlx; one Of the many wonderful and interesting events that take place in the lahoratorx'. Every day we catch fresh glimpses of nature.

It was a dec1ded success in every way. -1 wy t- The object primarily was to further the study of parhamen- i T tary law and to give the pupils an idea of the manner in - T541 which business is carried on in the United States Congress. 1e The Congress met every Monday. Each branch of the x 1 Congress elected a chairman, clerk, sergeant-at-arms, and mm? ,doorkeeper, who served. for a term of four weeks in the lk:;:;::4 . House and five weeks 111 the Senate. The Congress was held in Miss Gilday,s second and sixth hour political econ- omy classes. The first term the second hour class was the House and sixth hour class the Senate. The next term this order was just reversed, thus giving the pupils of both classes an idea of the workings of both hotises. ' t . The parliamentary procedure was exactly the same as that of o-ur'United States Congress, even to the minutest details. Since the Senate has not the priv- ilege of using the previous question, and since the time was limited in which to discuss business, a set of cloture rules for the purpose of limiting the time Of debate was presented by the committee on rules, and passed by the Senate. The manner in which the legislative work was undertaken by the pupils and the nature of the discussion can best be understood by a consideration of a few of the bills which were introduced. Some of them are: Resolved, That the United States should adopt a national child labor law prohibiting child labor; Resolved, That a Federai employment agency, for the purpose of finding employment for and regulating the supply of farm laborers, should be established in Kansas; Resolved, That the United States should adopt a law prohibiting the manufacture, importa- tion, or use of any alcoholic liquors. The bills which were the most ably debated were those referring to prohibition, child labor and free trade. After a long flght these bills passed both houses and were signed by the president, Mr. Porter Graves. The Senators filibustered the child labor bill in a vain attempt to kill it. Should anyone have entered Room 8 on Mondays, he might for a moment have thought himself in the congressional halls at Washington, for on this Hoo-r were debated the various qtiestions of the day. The amount of good derived from these fiery and eloquent debates, for fiery and eloquent they were, cannot be merestimated It was 110 uncommon thing for the Gentleman from Missoiurii, or the HLady from Arkansas to rise and in a vigorous, who-le-hearted manner procwd to fear a bill apart with their arguments. The vim, Vigor and force that arose frmn discussing the questions pertaining to the hitherto itdead, dismal science or Political Jiconomy was almost unbelievable.

The course is divided into three dlstlnct d1v151ons. The first ten weeks were taken up with the study of classical architecture. This included the different orders 01 classmal columns and the parts of each order. First, the parts of any column in general were drawn. Then the work narrowed down to the different kinds of columns. Every member of the class made drawings and blueprints of the different orders. Some of the work done by the boys would have done credit to a professional architect. Many of the columhs had much tine carving and decorative work on them. This was all shown in the drawings. - The next ten weeks were taken up with the study of steel construction. Much mathematical work was connected with this. A drawing of a steel column of certain dimensions to support certain weights in a building was made. All the weights and the exact amount of strain there would be on the whole colurnn and on every part of it was carefully figured out. The different. ways and different places for connecting steel columns, steel girders and beams were shown. The work for the last half of the year comprised the most interesting and instructive part of the entire course. This part of the work consisted in the drawing of plans for a dwelling house. These plans were all designed by the boys themselves. Freehand sketches, incorporating the main ideas, were first made. N ext came the actual drawing. This was done to scale and worked out accurately. The arrangement and size of the different rooms was the main feature of the drawing and the hardest part for the boys to design. There were plans for the first and second floiors, showing rooms, halls, stairways, etc.; plans for the attic and basement ; elevation drawings of the side and the front of the house; a section cut through it ; and a perspective drawing of the entire structure. Not only was the appearance and usefulness of the house considered, but the actual construc- tlon was given careful study. In this way the students learned much about how a- house would have to be built. . Taken as a whole, the course gives the student in architecture a good founda- tion to- work on if he intends t9 follow up the work. Some of the former students of Manual who have takeh this work under Mr. Brous have gone out and made a success of it.

The necessity of being able to earn onc's way is universal. It is for this reason that the young people should seek some medium through which to earn their independence. Training for the business world is given in most high schools, but in this Manual leads. Young people, realizing the coming need of business training, have enrolled in these subjects, one of the most popular of which is typewrite ing. To know just how one stands, speed tests are held monthly. It is interest- ing to note the progress a student makes. The ambition of every pupil is to be able to write a sufficient number of words a minute to gain some tangible recognition. The passing of these tests not only necessitates much speed, but accuracy, concentration, determination, and considerable practice. The above plcture represents the successful speed contestants in this year's typewriting classes.

Pupils having had two years of art are eligible to these Classes. The leather work includes tooling, cutting, and staining of leather. Etching, soldering, pierced work, riveting and making of bowls and spoons are included in the beginning metal course. In the advanced work the subject of jewelrym making 15 taken up. In the class in leather work the students made a quantity of bags, card cases and novelties which made very acceptable Christmas gifts. An applica- tion of the work done in metal was demonstrated by the Art Club, each girl making a 1d enameling her club pin. The making of jewelry by the fourth year students is confined to work in silver Some of the articles made by the class are bracelets slipper buckles,si1ver sp010ns,hair ornaments, and stone set rings Every pupil must make an original design for the articles he 15 to make. These designs are adapted from birds, insects Howers, and abstract forms and conventionalized to fit the desired shape. The course in arts and crafts is one made popular by its own merits and adaptability toward higher education. i'lifp $111511 Mark In the furthering of 0111' perception of life, the different kinds of people 211 studiz; 1.1 H11 d1'z111i11g 111 this way the differences and likenesses are noticed.

It ' has acquired a name for headlines, leads and genuine news- paper style. A debt of $800 has been paid; the print shop has been well equipped; and THE MANUALITE has fulfilled its purpose of being a high school newspaper nlled with school news and published at a price that will permit every- one to subscribe. The paper has been enlarged from a sheet of three ten- mam; inch columns to one of four twelve-inch columns, thus mak- ing an increase of more than eighty column inches of space. The staff wished to devote this entirely to news, but owing to the debt incurred it was necessary to give some of this space to- advertising. Two separate staffs were elected with an editor-in-chief and department editors for each. The editing of the paper changed each month, one staff rest- ing while the other edited the paper. The staff which was not editing copy was required to do its regular work in the print shop and in Writing copy. A number of new departments were added. Among them are the Mag- pief, which varied in its comic contents, and the llVVeathercockfl a llspeaking the school mindh column. This department was open to student contributions, and proved very popular. The teachers gallery was also a new feature. s In the nnancial department THE MANUALITE has made a great gain. In September the staff was forced to incur a debt of more than $400 for' new print shop equipment. A 15x22 Universal press has been added. Although a platen press, the cylinder ink distribution made possible a. much better quality of work. The old lOXlS Gordon press was kept and is used for school job work. A 20- page library list was the largest single job. Eight cases were added to the six bought last year, making fourteen in all. A large iron imposing table, cast in the school shop, was a great convenience. More type, galleys and a case of wood furniture are among the other supplies added throughout the year. A proof press to be cast in the school shops is now in process of construction. To all this expenditure for equipment must be added the running expenses of the paper, which will vary from $5 for an ordinary issue to $50 for a big pictorial. number like the 8-page number given to the teachers attending the Missouri State Teachers, Association in November. At this time not only have all. debts been paid, but a little money remains in the treasury for new equip- ment next year. Another feature of THE MANUALITE was the very low sub- scription price of 30 cents for thirty-nine issues. For this the subscribers re- ceived not onh the regular 4--page paper, but two 8-page ones and one of six pages. :Xs a result of the moderate cost of the paper the circulation never fell below 1,000 in 2:. school of 1,150. ln itlarrh THE M.xNUALlTE met a great loss in the death of the instructor in printing, John T, Miller. THE MANUALITE grew and thrived under Mr. flittcrk jn-aigrmtii:;n and the paper was his greatest pleasure in life.

I X ,J 5hr Enggt Ephatv On March 17th this year the sixth annual inter-high school debate for the Amherst Cup was held. The subject for debate was: Resolved, That the United States should adopt a system of compulsory military training similar to that of Switzerland. After the preliminary tryouts it was difficult to pick the two teams, as the boys were very evenly matched. The boys worked day and night up to the day of the debate to perfect their arguments. In spite of 2111 this both teams were defeated. The teams as they debated were: AffirmativeeDavid Mindlin, Otto Slaugh- ter, Calvin Hermer, Russell Elliott, and Mr. Kize-r, Coach. NegativehGeorge ESgchneider, Howard Chilton, Edward Baker, Carlton Glick, and Mr. Gustafson, oach. Both teams of Northeast and Westport won, thus making it necessary to hohl a debate between these schools. The result was a tie, btit Northeast was allowed to hold the cup, having held it for two previous years. x The results of the debates were as follows: Northeast affirmative won from Central negative, at Manual. Westport afhnnative won from Manual negative, at Central. Nnrtheast negative won from Manual affirmative, at W'estport Westpurt negative won from Central aHirmative, at Northeast Northeast ztfhrnmtive won from VVestport negative. .

It was upheld in the affirmative by Editha Battersby, Jeanie Murray, Tyra Lloyd, and alternate Margaret Sheldon; and in the negative by Mildred Miles, Gladys Bigler, Lillian SandfO-rt, and alternate Monica Ryan. For several years this same question has been debated in Congress, and in almost every maritime country in the world, so that it was one of great interest and Vital importance. The high school principals thought it dignihed and very suitable for a girls, debate, and a prominent Visitor who said, tThe Manual girls are Characterized for preparedness and poise? thought the subject was very well handled by our girls. .

Mam, WWW, iganln anh illranrwm f. t, -O-----0-0-e Wimm 'N FRIDAY evening, January 10th, the audienee which at- l - tended the Manual play was carried back to mediaeval scenes. t Never before in the history of the high schools of this city has there been shown such an elaborate production, both in scenery and costuming, as was displayed in the staging of Stephen Phillips, llPaolo and Francesca? The entire play cast deserves credit for attempting a play which is not often attempted even on the professional stage. We must extend many sincere thanks to our long- IL------------4 suffering, but well-deserving, director, Herbert L. Drake, upon whose shoulders fell not only the task of directing the cast, but also the tremendous problems of staging and costuming. The play was so remarkably different from anything ever attempted by high school students, that the audience was rather doubtful about how to receive it. But they were soon assured by the direct sincerity with which each member por- trayed his Character that llsomething real and new, had been reached in amateur dramatics. The success of HPaolo and Franceseali was due in a great measure to the capable handling of the four big roles in the play. Ivan Whipple as Giovanni and Naomi Rich as Lucrezia, played most adequately the parts of the middle-aged, em- bittered pair who fought so vainly against the power of youthful affection that had ever been denied them. Naomi Rich was unusually good in her renunciation scenes, and Ivan Whipple took the stern warrior part with surprising Vigor. Perhaps the most charming work was 'done by Richard T-oomey as Paolo, the young soldier brother of Giovanni, and MartIna' MartIn as Francesca, the deli- cate convent-reared maiden who comes all unw1111ngly as rmstress .to the castle of her warrior husband. The love scene as played by Dick and Martma was as, near professional as anything in the play. The four leads were supported by a most excellent cast. Paolo ...................................

The last two plays had cut loose from the average trend of high school comedy and had taken a. serlous and thoughtful turn. As a climax, on Friday,- April 10, 1916, a most realistic production of liThe Melting Pot was given. The play was as great a success as any high school play mm cast could w1sh to attain. T he audience was agreeably sure .,.....-..-...'. prised in seeing the vivid portrayal of such difficult'parts by amateurs. Robert W. Clark, dramatic critic for the Phila- delphia Telegraph, said of the play: liAn achievement, which redo-unds'to the credit of Manual and brings added luster to the long list of the schools successful undertakings, was the production by the advanced classes of ISrael ZangwilFs The Melting Pot, ,l The beautiful roof-garden scene, overlooking a panorama of New York City and the bay, with the statue of Liberty in the distance, which was used in the last act, was constructed and painted by some of the members of the play cast under the directions of H. L. Drake and Mrs. M. M. Miles. The character of David Quixano, the Jewish Violinist, who ilhas faith in America and faith that America will keep faith with him? enthusiastically por- trayed by Richard Toomey, was as real as anything ever acted on ManuaYs stage. Lola McColl, in the part of Vera Revendall, who ilhas found her life work in America? played a difficult role remarkably well. She showed a fine appreciation of her lines. Will Jacobs played with energy the part of Mendel, the uncle of David. He also deserves much praise for his faithful work as stage manager. A The Baroness Revendall found an admirable portrayer in, Martina Martin, whose- stage bearing'and accent were exceptional for a high school student. Edward Pawley, as the Baron, played an unsympathetic part eSpecially well. Ersal Beyer, as Quincy Davenport, made a real dude, giving a good combmation of llthe man- ners of Europe with themillions of America? Tyra Lloyd played .most excel- lently the small but difficult part of Frau Quixano. Naorm Rich and Gifford Terry made the comedy of the play a success. Gifford Terrya as the dignified Herr Papelmeister, made a striking hgure. Naomi Rich, the Irish maid, portrayed the- spirited and capricious maid of the Quixano household.

It is ZangwillS attempted solutlon 0f the race question. The authorls Opinion of America is given In the words of David Quixano, the main character of the play: UAmerica is God's crumble. the Great Melting Pot, where all the races of Europe are melting and reforming , He has hopes that from the Melting Pot will issue forth a new race with new ideals, an exemplifieation of all that the yesterdays have held that is enduring, and that the coming American will perhaps be the coming superman. Zangwillls idea of our weakness is that ilwe are always looking backward. But here, here in this new secular republic, we must look forward? The scene pictured above was the last in the play. The scenery was painted by members of the play east. David and Vera are standing on the roof garden, overlooking the hay and New York. They have been reunited, and as David looks at the Statue of Liberty, at the city and the bay, he says, HThere she lies, the great Melting Pot. There gapes her month, where a thousand mammoth feeders come from the ends of the world to pour in their human freight? Then turning to Vera, l'Ah. Vera, what is the glory of Rome and Jerusalem, where all nations and races come to wotship and look backward, compared with the glory of America, where all nations and races come to labor and look forward? 62 wiv rYll- P?

Be sure to wash your hands, for there seems to be about as much paint on them as on the scenery.H The cooking room served splendidly as both kitchen and dining room, and, after a morning of work, dinner was a welcome call on those six or' seven Satur- days of scene painting. llWhat is that horrible smell? Gracious! Dick! the glue is burninglii That glue was used to put in the paints to make them stick. Plain, common, ordinary glue is not the pleasantest thing on earth to cook at any time, but burning glue is past description. So it was that Saturday after Saturday, before the play, a tired, dirty, but enthusiastic group of workers could be seen coming away from Manual. This was not, however, until after the lights had been turned out on them at six ovlclock. 63 Ely: ttGEym $112?

The entertainment, which was the result of many weeks of work on the part of the pupils and their teacher, Dr. Lena Hoernig, was a pronounced success. The larger part Of the program consisted of dancing, but the Indian club drill and wprk 0n the horse and swinging ladder showed the thorough training which the girls receive in regulation gymnasium work. The First dances on the program were hMusetteY an old French dance, and 'The Village Belle? a French character dance, given in old-fashioned costume by i Misses Elisabeth Morgan, TXrTarguerite Maloney and Elizabeth Van Brunt. Four dances, representing Spain, Russia, Sweden and Japan, followed. hTa- Taof' a Chinese duet dance, given in Chinese costume by Miss Viola Brainard and Miss Millie Ries, was both unusual and striking. erihe Pied Piper, with Cecil Heydon as Piper and girls of the first year gymnasium classes as the Children of Hamelin, was one of the most popular numbers on the program. 7 Two interpretive dances, the Song of the Robin? danced by a group of girls. and UThC Blue Danube, beautifully danced by Miss Hoernig, were fol- Mwed by two short, but pretty, esthetic dances. , it The program ended with a German folk dance, hSieben Spruenge . tSev'en lumpst, which was finished in a very effective way, all the dancers kneeling With their heads touching the Hoor until the curtain went down. 65 added materially t0 the success of the Miss Pearl Roemen at the piano, The program was as follows: entertainment by her splendid accompanlments.

Qwewwe 5112 hike in minnmnnh make milhrvh milw, TIE Sixty-eight bright-faced girls met in the station at Thirteenth and Walnut on October 9th to go on a hike to Winnwood Lake. They started out with the intention of having a good time and accomplished more. When the car came, some of the girls, preferring the baggage car to the pass- senger ear, promptly swooped down upon it and took full possession. After riding some distance on this car, the girls got on a North Kansas City car which carried them about one mile beyond the bridge. Then they walked the remaining four miles to the lake. When they got there, they built several small hres 0n the hill overlooking the lake, and pickles, weinies, sandwiches, marshmallows and cake rapidly began to disappear. After lurich the girls rushed to the dance hall, where they forgot there was such a thlng as weariness and danced every dance ever invented and added some new ones. Viola Brainard was the first to invent a dance. Viola haSIYt named it yet but Charlie Chaplin might have coveted it. Upon Miss Hoemicris sugaestion, Viola Brainard and Mildred Miles gave a parody of the bPonitpeiian bFlowei' GITISX, scattering walnuts instead of flowers. Then ttHer Warriorii was given with variations by'Viola Brainard and Marian Casper. After a recitation by Venus Hickman, the girls, as :1 grand finale, gave a parody of the ttGavottef, The dances were then broken up, V i .1 4 7 . ,1 1t 38 s1 OVVllAlg kl L. 66 ut 1e 61' :h; 1g 1g 1n .Wap' ,. Ellie Stuhmt Epprwmtatiuw Olharlpa Egan, l1 7 Mr. Graves certainly had an inspiration this year when he sent out the call for the organization of a HStudent Representative? to enable him to come into closer touch with his student body. The election was held in the fourth hour classes, each pupil voting for the one in that class that he thought most worthy to become a member of the council. The following were thus honored by thelr classmates: Charles Luthy Gena Palermo ' Ruth Tamm Charles Egner Margaret Sheldon Norton Topping Helen Quinn Elmer Gatlin Elizabeth Warren Hobart Gilmore Wiley Doyle Bonnie Martin Frank Motorano Marion!

As soon as the meeting was called things began to happen. Some one suggested that about all the seventh grade pupils know about the high school is llwho won the pennant in basketball, and Hwho cleaned up in track, and that it was but fair that the ward schools should know something about the other activities of high school life. The outcome of the lively discussion was a motion that a letter should be sent to the seventh grades of the schools in our district, extending a welcome to the graduating class and setting forth our work and play here at Manual in as alluring a way possible, in the hope of making the ward. school people realize the opportunity offered by a live high school like Manual. The letter will be featured in one of our last editions of THE MANUALITE and sent to the schools in question, by some of their present representatives at Manual. Another subject discussed at the first meeting was the need and advantage of a bank at Manual. The idea was enthusiastically received, and next year we hope to have here at Manual a llsure eznoughll bank organization, on strictly business principles, as an adjunct to our already popular Busmess Department. At the second meeting of the council the question of a medal of honor pm came up for discussion. The proposed pin is to be a sort of fllron cross decora- tionll for those that constitute our roll of honor at Manual, in all the act1v1t1es 0f the school from Class room to the athletic field. If the plan continues to find favor with the faculty and council, next June there Wlll probably be a number of happy Manualites wearing this new badge, because they have helped to make Manual a little better than they found 1t: . Beyond shadow of a doubt the student counc11 has come to stay and Is one of the most important movements ever launched at Manual. Such enterprises never fail and always come through with colors flying and drums beating. Best of all, they make better men and women of the students that get behind them and push them, for it means much to stand shoulder to shoulder With a man like Mr. Graves in his splendid efforts to llmake Manual a good place to grow in? So herels to Mr. Graves and the Student Representative, may they live long and prosper! 67 Elie Olnntwta ' ''''''' m-ft'LONG with the many events of the past year, the COUtGStS I hold a place of decided prominence. Besules the regular annual contest from the Eloeution Department, an entlrely new field was explored, that of the literary contest, including the story, poem and essay. With this new act1v1ty,. the field of representation has been greatly broadened, making room for those people who have qualities with which to represent a school but can best express themselves in writing. Un- gm usual interest was shown and the results were beyond the .mn highest expectations. One judge, when asked hls oplnlon, said, llSome of the work done in these contests would do credit to any college graduate? Forty-four entered, and only nine were given places, yet there was not one who did not get value received for his work, for every paper handed in showed careful painstaking work. The fact that this first effort was such a decided success will undoubtedly be an incentive to a larger number of contestants next year and the literary contests will grow to hold one of the first places in school activities. The following wereethe winners: POEMte ESSAYe First Prize, George Schneider. First Prize, Ruby Clasbey. Second Prize, Myrtle Davis. Second Prize, Mary Osborne. Third Prize, Pauline Morrell. Third Prize, Venus Hickman. STORY- TEMPERANCE ESSAYa First Prize, Helen Curtis. First Prize, Mary Irwin. Second Prize, David Cahn. Third Prize, Editha Battersby. The annual elocution and oratorical contest, although unusually late in the year, aroused-much interest. A larger number than in previous years entered the prehmlnaries. The invaluable training in the dramatic line gave to the work the spice of elose competition. Out of the twenty-five who tried out in the elocution preliminaries, four were selected. They were: Opal Conduitte read- ing TCinderella Dinesf, Martina Martin reading ltThe Lion and the M'ouse'w Salvm Hermer reading HSimon, the Gentleh and Richard Toomev Areadilior Jean ValJeanf, The three who successfully passed the oratorieail trcYOl tb were: Edltha Battersby in liThe Fighting Spirit?

There are two great branches of the department, the lunchroom and the regular cooking Classes The lunchroom is run entirely by the pupils, under the direction of Miss Vance. The object of the lunchroom is to provide a substantial noondaV meal at a very reasonable price to any who may wish it. For fifteen cents a rheal may be had which is far superior, both in quality and quantity, to that which may be obtained in any restaurant 01' in any Other school in the City. The money received from lunches is used entirely for defraying the expenSes of the department, buving food needed for the next day and for any necessary equipment. , The regular cooking classes are divided into three years. The first year in- cludes the cooking of simpler foods and making them as attractive as possible for serving. The cooking is taken one day and the next day is spent in the study Of the botany, zoology, Chemistry and history of foods. The second year is a more advanced study of the same work, plus the care of the dining room, the planning and serving of a dinner. The third year, advanced classes study in addition the building and proper care of a home. These Classes are under the care of Miss Morris and her capable assistants, Miss Allen, Miss Stewart and Miss Vance. The school owes a great deal of gratitude and appreciation to these teachers for their splendid work. Their excellent advice and capable assistance in serving refreshments has contributed greatly in making our parties and social affairs so successful.

The halls were decorated with ferns, goldenrod and autumn leaves. Tennis nets were hung in the lower hall and were banked with goldenrod and asparagus. As soon as school was dismissed the girls went to the Assembly Hall. where they were given slips of paper, bearing the number of the romn to which they were to go. Different games were played in these rooms. At intervals of about fifteen or twenty minutes, a procession of girls went through the halls, playing on tin pans, dish pans and such musical instruments as could he found in the domestie science department. The people in the rooms then went to another mom, where they were entertained in some other way. Those who did not care to continue playing games found their way up to the west landing, where fortunes were told by two very real witches. The landing was completer enclosed in Mack and Match cats were used for decorations. The lights were covered with black paper. giving a very weird effect. These witches told many an interesting fortune After the excitement of the games and fortunes manv Visited the in the center of the lower hall. . When the girls assembled in the lower hall they formed in a group :1an :1 Hash-hght picture was taken. They soon separated and went to the sewing rooms, botany and zoology laboratories, where refreshments consisting of cake were served. ' punch howl ice cream and 70 fliere were several committees that worked faithfully to make the party a success. erlam Lechtman was chairman of the entire party. She had four commlttees, one on nnance, one on decoration, one on entertainment and one on refreshments to assist her. i . By givmg thls party, the upperclass girls attempted to make the freshmen g1rls thoroughly welcome and to make them realize that they were important fac- tors of the school. In order to add to the pleasure of the afternoon, the seventh grade teachers of the schools represented at Manual were invited and the girls enjoyed little Visits with their old friends. About four hundred fifty guests were entertained and the party was voted a success from all points of View. 5112 mihgrar Erwahmrn 133mg Happiness, Glee, and F reedo-m reigned supreme in the holiday-dressed halls of Manual, Thursday afternoon, February 10th. Amusement, as leader of the Freshies led them to Assembly Hall accompanied by Excitements and Expecta- tion's Band. Seated in Assembly, they beheld the curtain rise on a most select and famous company of entertainers. Behold standing on the stage, the mar- velous conglomeration of Kubelik, Bernhardt, Pavlowa, Caruso, Melba, and Paderewski. What could have been more delightful than Kubelikls wonderful rendition of the worlds most famous violin solos. Had you been behind the scenes, you might have discovered that the famous Kubelik was none other than our F resh- man, Ben Schlein. Then there appeared before their joy-surprised eyes, Sarah Bernhardt, to charm them by her talent. She rendered a passionate selection which well por- trayed her powers. Sh! It was Helen Clark-but dont say we tolel you. Who stands before us in such graceful posture? Surely it IS no other than the world-famous Pavlowa. As she sways and bends back and forth, who would guess that-she is a Boy! The fairies came tripping down and WhlS- pered it to us. It was Abe Shafton. Whaternore to come? Stately Caruso! And yet he seems somewhat slimmer than we had anticipated. But his voiceeoh! his VOrlCC'. It has not changed since his last Visit to our ancient hall. tHe was never here beforey. He was Ruth Tamm. . . . Please do not forget that this is a pantomime affair glven before a deaf and dumb school. The matrons of this school were Alrce Palmer and Ruth Wilde. I fear they had considerable trouble with the eXCItable pupils, Frances Wilson, Annette VVorkner, Wilma Hoefle, Thelma. O,Rear, Neva Roblnson3 Ovilla Knight, Rose Furman, Hazel Heman, Helen Irw1n, Helen Berner, and Jane Britton, all of whom took their parts very well. . . h h t Next on the program came Melba. Her melodious V01ce- tt ?lugd no heardy penetrated the farthest corners of the room. Though W111 Po ar was Melba. she was one of the best numbers on the .program. . a . Last, but not least, our always welcome artlst, Paderewski, presentetl him- self to view. He was received as he deserved to be and when he ieft, if any furniture remained whole, it was not her faultrYes, he was a glrl. In ot er words Paderewski was Koto Brooks.

However, this was not our only form of amuse- ment. Our committee had been careful to see that we were supplied with many different forms of entertainment. As we left the Assembly Hall, we were ushered down to the rooms on the lower Hoots. Here we played many differ- ent games. One of the best was the peanut race. We had to get down on hands and knees and, with hat pins in our mouths, rolled a peanut to a certain spot. Of course it was a difficult thing to do and rather hard on the dignity of some of our teachers. But, then, what right has dignity at a Halloween party? Then there were cracker and raisin races. Imagine, if you can, trying to eat three crackers in a hurry. Imagine two people chewing the opposite ends of- a string, each trying to reach the raisin in the center first and thereby win the race and the raisin. As we began to tire of these things, we were told where to find re- freshments. Here again we found our committees had made good preparations. T hey served us with pumpkin pie, cider and candy. Tired and happy we went home to remember always that particular party? ' Leaving the great fireplace, the young people gathered around the table. Their brains were suddenly alive with many ideas and plans. Their minds seem to fill with black cats, goblins, ghosts, .skeletons, pumpkins and everything connected with Halloween. Grandpa sat, idly gazing at the tire, seeing inoeach ember and flame, pictures of himself and his friends, all enjoying the gay tlmes, not only of that one day, but of the many happy ones of that year at dear old Manual. a 73 a Gallant you th .Im a tn am ,tw: 5m 4 mC . .

In a short time little groups of interested people, under the leadership of Corinne Mackey, were busily preparing for a St. Patrickls day celebration, and, as a result, March 17, 1916, was one of the most interesting days in the history of Manual. Every nook and corner of the halls was decorated with E E O 3 green andoverhead were clouds of Shamrocks. Large ferns w gave a finishing touch to the decorations. am Regular classes were held until ten dclock, when the p. -.. 4 program began with the boys, debate. The audience listened , . to a spirited discussion between the Northeast and Central teams, and found it difhcult to decide whether to be in favor of adopting the Military System of Switzerland or not. The Kansas University Band took the platform shortly after the debaters and gave us some good music. This program is always one of the most popular assemblies of the year and the standard was not lowered this time. Classes were resumed for the fifth and sixth periods and then school was dismissed, and the general celebration began. Nearly every pupil stayed. The program began with the staging ofta pantomime of old Irish folk lore. The originality and novelty of this won the audience completely; As the curtain was lowered, a procession was formed, and led by a band, St. Patrick and his fol- lowers paraded from cellar to garret. The next attraction was the booths in the upper and lower halls. Great crowds surged around these most of the after- noon. At one booth prizes were given to those who were most successful. pin- ning the tail on a pig. Alas, poor wall! something should have been given it for the adornment it received. The horse racing booth and the auction booth were also popular places, there being plenty of excitement in both neighborhoods all the afternoon. Many great bargains were closed and everyone took home a remembrance of the day. About four-thirty dclock the refreshment rooms were opened, and what ,a grand opening it was. All were fed to their heartls oontent with St..Patr1clrs refreshments, the color scheme of green and white being carried out in the: ice cream and cake. , . The party then gradually broke up, and every Manuahte went home With the feeling in his heart that he was glad dear old St. Patrick had lived. - But there was something else happened that day which, though not noticed particularly by the pupils, caused great satisfaction .in other quarters. This was the fine spirit of respect for discipline and order displayedOthroughout,the day. When the big fire broke out directly across the street, during the boys. debate, perfect order was maintained. The pupils were.dism1s.sed for a few minutes to see it, and when the bell rang every pupil went irnniediately where he belongeclll. This was a big test and the school stood it well. Not only this, but throughofut El the celebration, the students proved that they could enjoy themselves per ecty and at the same time be gentlemanly and ladylike. 75 mumml $rganigatinna abnhwtm FIRST VIOLIN SECOND VIOLIN FIRSEhCORINET Armour, Evelyn Joyce, Mabel.

This loyalty and the faithful work of the- glee clubs was well rewarded, Manual taking the highest honors of the day, winning the silver cup for the mixed Chorus, and second place in the other two numbers. The events of the day began with the sight reading con- test in the morning, which proved very successful. This, with two enthusiastic talks by Miss Casey and Miss Gilday, filled the singers with inspiration and assurance for the contest in the afternoon, and every note they sang showed the force behind it, from the time they marched into the auditorium singing the Manual Ode until the closing number was sung. The girls, number was a beautiful arrangement of the Angels Chorus from the KlMessiahf, the boys, number was llShepherdls Sunday Song? while the mixed chorus sang llThe Hunting Song? ' The results of the contest were not announced until after the evening pro- gram, the reason being, as expressed by Mr. Holmes who was presiding, hthat every school might have the satisfaction of thlnking it had won all three cups. The cantata in the evening, llThe Rose Maider directed by Mr. Frank Chaffee of Northeast High School, was very fine- Manual was again well repre- sented by the special work of Miss Lottie Williams, Paula Larey, our little Caruso, and Milo Buchanan, whose tenor solo was the crowning event of the evening. At the close of the chorus the three cups were presented to the Wlne ning schools-Cer1tral winning the girls chorus, Northeast the boys, and Manual th mixed chorus. a ' . 6 Manual more than ever realizes and appreciates the faithful, patient, highly professional work of our director, Mr. Riggs.

K E'g 2g 5 glUKIUK I D 1 Mg 211E basketball season of 1916 has indeed been a successful one for Manual. Although we did not win the championship, VVestport was the only school in the league outside of Cen- tral to w1n a game from us. The entrance of Polytechnic disturbed the balance of the league, so that it was necessary for one team to remain 1dle each week. To keep the fellows in trim, Mr. Shepherd arranged games with Central High School of St. Joseph, to ,0, be played on our off dates. The first was played on VVest- ..4 ports court, and resulted in an overwhelming victory for . the Crimson. For the return game, Mr. Selvidge took the team to St. Joe, where the lunatics wiped the blot from off their eseutchcon by a Victory gained by football tactics in an exceedingly rough game. It speaks well for the ability of the coach and the gameness of the fellows, that after the St. Joe catastrophe they came back and defeated Northeast in a game that was just forty minutes of speed and scrap. Last year Mr. Selvidge faced the problem of molding a team out of raw material. It is not our purpose to recount the ensuing chaos, but suffice it to say ' that we fought a losing light; but a fight 'it was, nevertheless. The successful outcome of the season this year was the first fruit of the coaches, labor of last year. The men this year demonstrated the fact that they knew how to win, anda what is more important-ho-w to lose. And right here take due notice of . the fact that this team, with the exception of AMindlin, will be in school and intact for two more years. With Koenigsdorf at center, Peabody, Hairgrove and Gilmore guards, and North at forward, we will have a veteran team for the next two years. Gilmore, a freshman, was the only new man on the team this year. The question .151 who Will take Mindlinls place? Middleton, a brother of the immortal llKennyf is the most likely candidate now.

Besides winning the pennant in their division of the league, the scrubs played a great part in the perfection of the iirst team squad. It was largely through their efforts that the first team made such a creditable showing. Out of seven games played, the scrubs turned in high scores on six. As the second team games were played in the afternoon, there was seem- ingly little glory connected with a position on the scrubs. But all of the second team men were present at the big games, and ready to go in if necessary. The real reward for being a second team man was the feeling that came to him when he saw the team playing a winning game. Each one felt that he had helped lick the opponents after the game. And he had! For he had given his time and attention three afternoons a week that the tirst team should prosper. It gets rather monotonous being in attendance, and being used as a dustcloth for the gym furniture in the hands of Eve big huskies three days out of the week for ten weeks or more. But they did it, and their efforts were rewarded with a city Championship. There were three seniors 0n the regular second team this yealz Sheehan, Joyce and Toomey, leaving Egner, Middleton and Dubin to play next year XVith these three to build around we are assured of another good team next year. 102 Enterrlaaa Eaakpthall ' ms 'mvmwvr i ' FEATURE 0f the Liirst term this year was the interclass bas- ketball series. This was a novelty at Manual, and did much toward breaking in the men for the hard work of the War- sityii squad. Owing to the lack of a court at Manual, the games were played on the Armory and Battery 3B,, courts. Even so, the keenest rivalry was shown between the four teams, and every game was attended by a large crowd of rooters. The Seniors, piloted by Dingy Marshall, won the series it after a late start. The Freshmen, with Dubin as captain, started out with a rush, but could not stand the pace, and were first defeated by the Seniors at their second meeting. In this game the Seniors hit their stride, and it soon became evident that they were not to be stopped. . The Juniors under Charley Hairgrove beat out Koineyis Sophomores for third place, after a late start. Although tied in per cent, the Juniors had won two out of three games with the Sophs, and so were awarded third place, leav- ing the Sophs in the cellar. . These interclass games did much for basketball at Manual, and the spirit shown under the difficulties of playing on borrowed courts makes 1t certam that we Will appreciate our long promised GU new gymewhen 1t comes. Mr Selvidge promises another series of games next year, and we hope that they W111 not be played on borrowed courts, and w1th0ut even hope of a. court of our own.

Bit m by bit their bodies grew and bit by bit their minds grew stronger. Then came a time when these small beings en- tered a place of learning called Ward School. Durlng these seven or eight years a few stumbled and fell. Then came a time for the survivors to enter a higher school of learn- ing. Here many more dropped out, until in the-year 1913 a select class of over five hundred pupils enrolled in Manual. This class in its first year was looked down upon and shunned even as the ugly caterpillar. It ate and drank deeply of knowledge, then it went into its second stage, a Sophomore, as the caterpillar goes into its second stage, a cocoon. Here little was heard of this class, it, like the cocoon, was making itself reacly for a great surprise that it was to bring to the world in its next stage. The thlrcl year came, the caterpillar came out of its cocoon a beautiful butterHy, but yet it was not as beautiful as it was to be in its fourth stage, for yet its wings were not fully de- veloped. So it is with the Juniors. They are only at the dawn of their most successful high school year. The Class of ll7 is one of the most enthusiastic Junior classes that Manual has ever had, because all of those that lacked Manual spirit were led astray by two great lights that came onto the student horizon. The first great light was the new Northeast High School. Some were attracted by this light. but those that loved Manual stayed. Then came the second light, brighter than the first, and took with it all those that were doubtful, until now nothing only the pure blood of the school is left. Many people predicted that Manual would not recover from this loss. But she did; she came out stronger than before. The superiority of the Class of ,17 was proved in basketball, baseball, play cast, and girls, debate. On the basketball team all but one were Juniors ; the baseball team was victorious ; the play cast had as many Junior members as the mighty Seniors, and on the girls, debate half were Juniors. Let us remember, fellow students, that this is the time to begin to make a success of our lives. We must keep fighting continually to gain suecess, for those who grow weak and give up will be engulfed in the great sea of failure. So now, Juniorsz let us not think too highly of ourselves and be too blind to our faults; let us strive to make our final year at Manual a great success. But who has brought us to what we are? It has been the patient and long- suffering faculty, headed by our gentle, yet iron-willed, principal, who has urged and pushed us on. So, now speaking for the whole Class of ,17, may I thank the .faculty one and all for the patient and loyal support which they have given us during our three years in dear old Manual. And now, Seniors, as you. leave, some of you to enter higher schools of learning and others of you going out to fight this stern old world, remember that YOU haVe everythlng to gain and nothing to lose. And, Seniors: anmm ..; May you to dear old Manual bring Full many honors more; Until her name and her great fame Shall ring from shore to shore. x s W wmmww x w 2 V WK x 2 mg? MQS Q A22 M r32 gvyzmx gamim' Elgrwihmfa Ahhrwg W ND it came to pass in those days that a castle was builded of QM brown brick, fair to the sight and wonderfully revered. And when the youths of the land looked upon the castle, they said .one to the other, ttCome, let us see this great thing which has come to pass? And they came and saw and re- mained, and called themselves the class of 16. Now it came to pass that in the second year of the sojourn of the class of ,16, a new king came and. was crowned. And for as much as these people had been Wicked and extremely green they had turned from their ways of iniquity and in this the first year of the reign of the new king, they found great favor in his sight. And there was peacethrough the land which continued even unto the third year of the reign of the klng. But it came to pass that in this, the third year of their great king, there came into the land great rumors of the war of B. B. Forthwith they prepared and marched forth to meet the enemy and conquered every foe which came before their path, except one, even Central, Which was the only one to conquer this great class of ,16. And yet again in the following war called tlBoysi Debate, did the enemy triumph, because the allies of the enemies, surnamed judges, decided not in their behalf. So they gathered themselves together and prepared to avenge themselves and ' in the third month on the 31st day they arose and smote the enemy hip-and thigh and slew them yea to the last one, and were the glorious victors in the great war called liGirlsl Debatefi And it came to pass also that this renowned class of ,16 continued in their ways of righteousness and waxed exceeding great. For in this same year of the rule of the king did they produce great feats of dramatics, presenting to the people two plays, the greatness of which was heralded through the land and which did surprise the people in the land there about. But, notwithstanding all these great things, did they wax still greater than in all, in What was known as school spirit. Now it happened that this was coveted and greatly desired by all the classes upon the earth, and the class of 16 rejoiced and were thankful in their hearts for the abundant supply they possessed. And it came to pass that they did give wondrous parties inviting all the servants and hand maidens throughout all the kingdom even unto the smallest Freshie. And there was peace throughout all the land, yea, even in the hearts of the king and his captains. And when they had edited the NAUTILUS under the guidance of Richard, son of Toomey, and Emma, daughter of Kube, they were well content. Now the rest of the great feats and achievements of this class of ,16 are written in the book of Chronicles of the King and his captains. So the class of :16 ran this course, and there were none like unto them all the days of the king. m4 .4 ii at 126 MM thlgw , . 79.12 , , vmeg-Vgg v A, ;r ?; 4 ya , W m $ a QF? , x , YXQMQ W AM? i. .

At the early age of three weeks she kicked forty-four slats from her poor, innocent cradle. Her senior pedigree readeth like unto the diary of a self-made woman. Twice was she of the play cast, and twice associate editor of the NAUTILUS, and the students lifted up their voices in her praise. And she heard them and still her head turned not.

Basil was a candidate for chief cosink 0f the Senior Class, but some young suffragette placed a banana peel in his way and Basil slipped, but he nabbed second place just to show them he had the goods. ttBase,i is some basketball shark and chases ttsportll for THE MANUAL;- ITE.

WALTER BLAKE-Secretary Walter Blake, heaven Chosen as scribe of the happenings of the Senior Class, while possessed of many good qualities, is somewhat inclined toward the frivolous. To him was accorded the honor of kicking the thermometer at such time as Mr. Graves saw lit to enter the print shop- and great was his dismay thereat. Walter has much success with the maidens, for free is he with the coin of the realm. Was elected to THE MANUALITE and is accorded a journal- ist of no mean ability.

After the crowd had side stepped, back stepped, and lock stepped for a few hours, the musicians, who were working on union time, ceased the muSIC, so the dancing also ceased. Strange, isnt it? . Another incident of not much importance was the decoratlons. The walls were trimmed with odorless paper-epardon me, I meant flowersetherels not much difference, you know, they,re odorless. Reed baskets hung from the center walls without any visible means of support and were filled with real, lwe carnations. The only thing the matter was that the invisible wire upon which the basket hung would not stay invisible, so of course much curiosity was ap- peased. On the second Hoor many childish games were played. tDorft get excited, boys; they didn,t play llpostofficelw Among the most notable was a game called ltwink at ,emf and another called llfree lunch? or words to that effect. Another rather hopeless case tSt. Joe ofhcials, take noticeD was expressed on the second floor by a future editor of THE MANUALITE. He amused the crowd by attempting to imitate a college professor giving a lecture on analytical lemonology. The most notable thing, or one might say the one which made us suffer most, was also on the first floor. It was slightly watery in nature, it was sligtlzly purplish in color, it was SLIGHTLY weakish in taste, maybe it was SLIGHTLY spiked, anyway welll never tell; the fact remains, they also tried to make us drink it as we left. Ye gods and little flshes! And now, dear children, after we had so narrowly escaped eternal punish- ment, and perhaps eternal flre, we took our departure, much sicker, much wiser, and strange as it may seem much, yea, much, much more happier. And merely as an epilogue, Juniors of the Junior Class, oh humble pupils of Manual, oh humble dwellers in this vast world, let us say that we, the Senior Class of ,16, although sarcastic may be our tongue, although scornfully may we frown, we wish to thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts; Yes, we might say to the soles of our feet ' WE THANK YOU! !
