THE 0.41-:NATION AN APPRECIATION li ', if ITHOUT wishing to become sentimental, l believe that it is not out of place for me to state that, as a faculty, we are decidedly a happy family. Smiles and kind words for one another are certainly the rule. Personally, l have ample reason to value most highly the loyalty and kindly attitude of the teachers. l do not believe that one could get together a group of sixty persons who would be more willing to serve whenever help is needed or who would be a better example of co-operation and team-work. In a big school like ours there is a vast amount of work to be done outside of the regular teaching and, while the principal cannot escape responsibility to his superiors for the success of all of it, it is a wonderful thing to have willing and capable teachers who possess the initiative and dependability needed for assuming charge of the various phases of the work. Thus, one is moderator of the Student Council as a whole, others of the various standing committees, still others of the societies or clubsg others have charge of the library, the Carnation, the Crimson, the funds of student organizations, the Savings Bank, the making of the school program, the examination of pupils from outside schools, the advisory groups, the senior classes, graduation credits, tardiness, books, supplies, the coaching of plays and entertainments, office work, assisting in the conduct of athletics, debating, study rooms, making graphs of teacher's grades, supervision of dances, etc.- it is difficult to even enumerate them all. lt goes without saying that all of this work requires a large amount of time and energy and unselfish devotion. Teaching itself is considerable of a nervous strain, and it would be much easier to rest during a vacant period and to leave school promptly at dismissal. lt may be truly said that all of these responsibilities are a part of our job, but it surely is gratifying to have the assign- ments taken so willingly and cheerfully and performed so faith- fully. ARMAND R. MILLER. y Bic BUSINESS fi , E are engaged in the greatest of business enterprises and our capital is unlimited. Even in the early days of recorded events it was recognized that the foundation of every State was the education of its youth. The history of any individual or nation must be a sad one and a failure if at any time the training of the mind or spirit ceases to receive adequate attention. And this training should continue throughout life. Personally, I am feeling more and more the responsibility that rests upon my shoulders as one who endeavors to contribute his share-however slight-to the education of boys and girls who will some day assist in directing the thought and destinies of this country. Of late years there has been a change in the emphasis placed upon the chief objective of our work. For too long a period those most interested stressed the imparting of mere information and the amassing of facts-preparatory to the living of a life at some time inthe future. Now we are realizing that our most important duty is to develop right attitudes toward efficient and worth-while citizenship for the ever-present. No longer is the bookworm or winner of prizes, scholarships and high grades rec- ognized as a fully educated person unless he has other qualities of mind and heart which will contribute to the main purpose in life. This statement must not be construed as belittling the value of knowledge on its own account or gained from books. Far from it! Never before has there been need for a proper perspec- tive of the present in the light of the accumulated knowledge and wisdom of the past. We must hold fast to the good and ever keep an open mind for the truth, as we may see it from every angle. Those who are busy in the task of cultivating the head, hand and heart of the youthful citizenship of the land at the most plastic and impressionable time of life are surely engaged in very real and very great business. And this is our task. We are, then, a privileged class. M, M. H. THE CARNATION .-,ggi 7 IVIcKlNLEY HIGH SCHOOL ...gf 8135- THE CARNATIQN THE SAVINGS BANK URING the autumn of I92l the Student Council took steps to organize a bank. After some discussion a deci- sion was reached and Mr. Miller asked one of the teachers to take charge of the work and perfect an or- ganization. A constitution and set of by-laws were adopted. The constitution provides for a Board of Directors con- sisting of nine members, seven of whom are elected by, the Student Council from among the students, the other two being the Principal and the teacher selected by the Principal to take charge. The powers and duties of the Board of Directors are very similar to those of any bankg that is, to decide on questions of general policy. The teacher in charge, who is the Cashier, has charge of the daily routine, and selects the clerical force, which, for the most part, is changed every school term. A regu- lar set of accounts is kept and a daily balance is obtained just the same as in any bank, and the same degree of accuracy is required. The banking office is in 218 and business hours are from 8:15 to 8:45 a. m. and from 2:45 to 3:00 p. m. All the funds except a necessary cash reserve are invested in Liberty Bonds and U. S. Treasury Certificates. The pupils at McKinley are taking a very decided interest in the idea of saving. This is shown by the fact that with a school population of less than l,500 there are over 1,000 actual accounts on the books. Many of the pupils begin to save during their first year in school, so as to have money to meet necessary graduating expenses. Others save for any emergency that may arise. Some of the pupils use the school bank as a feeder to an account in some of the regular city banks. They deposit in the school bank in small amounts, such as the larger bank would not like to accept, and when their account amounts to enough, S l 0.00 or more, they withdraw from the school bank and deposit in the larger bank. lt not infrequently happens that some of the pupils who have been saving systematically find themselves confronted with some emergency which requires the use of more money than they have at hand at the moment. They then understand the value of hav- ing something in reserve when they can come to the school bank and get what they have saved in a time of prosperity to meet the emergency which has arisen. Many instances of this kind may be cited. ln one case a girl wanted a new dress. She could come to the school bank and get enough money to supply the want, money that had been saved in small amounts. ln another case a boy needed a new pair of handlebars for his bicycle. He could come to the school bank and get enough money to supply this need beca-use he had been systematically saving the dimes and nickels which had come into his possession. Another boy found himself wanting a new suit. His account at the school bank supplied the funds to satisfy his desire. ln addition to the practical benefits that the systematic de- positor may receive there is the benefit of the formation of one of the most helpful habits that may be formed--the habit of thrift-to save something during early life to protect against ad- versity that may come with more advanced years. BOARD OF DIRECTORS. BY BARBARA MILLER. K 4 THE CARNATION ...sq 9 THE SAVINGS BANK .ggi I0 jg?-U THE CARNATION CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT p F ERHAPS you have noticed that, as classes of prospective grade school graduates were led about the school on their visit to McKinley, their arrival in the chemistry laboratory was somewhat of a surprise to them. To the great majority it's something new, and perhaps you might hear one little fellow, who you would think was about to begin the fifth grade instead of graduating, say: Say, Jack, l'm gonna take this when I come up here. ln all probability that statement was prompted by curiosity, but if that little fellow goes through two years of high school, his reasons for taking chemistry will be a great deal better than that of mere curiosity. Everyone should have general knowledge of chemistry for at least one reason. That is, to have a better understanding of the everyday things we do and use. Chemistry deals with ele- ments and compoundsg their properties, characteristics, and re- actions. Since everything is made up of various groups of ele- ments or compounds, chemistry deals with everything. As an illustration, let us go through a few of the many things we do or use in which chemistry takes a part. You arise in the morning and go to the basement to start the furnacefire. After the fuel has been inserted, you will strike a match. A chemical reaction takes place. You light the fuel, but do you know what is actually taking place? Master your very first lesson invchem- istry and the question mark will be erased. You go upstairs to wash your hands which become soiled while tending to the fur- nace. Yes, the soap cleans them, but do you know the why of it? Then again, do you know of what soap is made? . How it is made? Chemistry again will answer these questions. You then go to the breakfast table. As you put the sugar into your coffee, do you realize that it is only a compound of carbon and water that is going to give your coffee a pleasing taste? As you eat your toast do you know that the bread in the making went througha chemical reaction? Do you know as the toast was made there was another reaction which gave the toast a sweet taste? So you see, chemistry does play an important part in our everyday lives. Chemistry cannot be taken before the fifth term in high school. Mathematics and physics are not absolutely essential for the study of high school chemistry, but naturally, a person with a knowledge of these subjects is at an advantage. During the first term of chemistry, one studies the funda- mental principles: The elements, their characteristics, properties and reactions. During the second term the study of the elements is continued, especially the metals. Also, more attention is given to compounds formed by these elements. The experiments per- formed are naturally of a more difficult nature than those of the first term. Some organic chemistry is also studied. Third term chemistry is altogether different from that of the first and second terms. Here one is given qualitative analysis. If one really likes chemistry in the first and second terms, he will surely like the third term extremely well. Here one is given a solution, the composition of which is unknown to the embryo chemist. He is given a scheme of analysis and, if this is followed carefully and accurately, the student will find out what elements are present in the unknown solution or salt. The fun of solving cross-word puzzles cannot be compared to the enjoyment re- ceived from chemistry three. I assure you that regardless of what you intend to become in after life, you will never regret having studied chemistry. MICHAEL LEVIN. L . THE CARNATION - CHEMISTRY CLASS ...gl 1213s THE CARNATION MACHINE SHOP ANUAL training is the attempt to train together the head, heart and hand, especially through the use of various tools and machines. ln no other department of the school is there found so great a personal interest as in the Manual Training Shops, since most boys are mechanically inclined. This shop is one of the most important in the school, as it gives the student the finishing touches to his work in Manual Training. As one great educator has said, Much importance is placed upon machine shop practice, not only because of the fine educational training which it provides, but because of its technical and practical value. lt provides for the development of orig- inality, initiative and real thinking power, instead of training by rule-of-thumb, the instruction is entirely through blue-prints, job sheets, questions, problems and guided discussions. ln the machine shop as in no other division of the work, the metals are either cast wrought iron or steel, and the process is necessarily slow, patient and persistent effort by the student is more certain to be rewarded by character development and mental breadth. Again the senses are quickened by the neces- sity of close observation, and the reason schooled by its constant use of method, together with the planning of the logical sequence of the processes. Judgment is slowly, but surely acquired, and the will strengthened by the mastery of each new difficulty. From the forge shop, where the metals are worked when heated, the student goes into a new field. ln the Machine Shop, where the metals are worked cold, he also meetsa wilderness of belts and pulleys. Belts go in every direction, but each transmits power to a certain machine. The atmosphere is filled with a spirit of activity, the grinding of tools, cutting of metals, and the hum of belts, gives one the impression of a busy manu- facturing plant. The lathes, the fundamental machines of the shop, have many more clutches, handles, gears and pulleys, than the small speed lathes for wood-turning. The many polished steel parts of the machines shine brightly from the sunlight that pours in through the skylights in the roof of the shop. The equipment consists of ten lathes, a planer, shaper, milling machine, two drill presses and a universal grinder. The course in machine shop practice is divided as follows: Each project is presented in the form of a blue print and opera- tion sheet, from which the student receives the major part of his information, description and instruction. There is a series of thoroughly practical projects involving the uses of the lather, planer, shaper, drill presses, milling machine and grinder which are worked out by each student in logical order. The vice work enables the students not only to become familiar with the various hand processes of metal work, but to acquire skill in the manipulation of the common machinists' hand tools. The work includes laying out, filing, fitting, scraping and finishing. Lathe work includes the following operations: Cutting off and centering up stock, roughing out and finishing cuts, straight and taper turning, use of the compound shile rest, chuck work, in- cluding inside boring, face plating and thread cutting. The drilling deals not only with the ordinary processes of drilling, counter boring, and reaming, but includes the laying out and accurate spacing of holes in the given work. The grinding treats of abrasive processes, grinding machines, hand and machine operations, the grinding of both plane and cylindrical surfaces, and the sharpening of taps, reamers and milling cutters, while the grinding of hardened steel arbors, spindles and gauges forms an integral part of the work. ln addition to the regular course of exercises, the majority of which are machinists' small tools, some of the following machines are frequently designed and built by the students at the close of their senior year: Jackscrews, motors, steam and gas engines, small grindstone stands, and small machine tools. The students by this time are well acquainted with the vari- ous machines and have a fairly good idea of attack to a prob- lem given them. JOSEPH H. BAUER. THE CARNATION ...ggi I3 MACHINE SHOP ...gy I4 jig. THE CARNATION MECHANICAL DRAWING A W RAFTING may well be called a science in some ways, an art in others and a branch of engineering in another, but, figuratively speaking, it is a mode of expression that may well be compared to a shorthand system. It is a method of ex- pressing accurately our ideas regarding form, shape, size, rela- tion and construction of things. It therefore gives a student pre- cision and enables him to express himself much more clearly and exactly in scientific matters, when description is necessary. ln fact, a good mechanical drawing can convey, at a glance, an idea more accurately than a half-hour of oral description. Be- cause of this fact, mechanical drawing is better adapted to the working out of complicated machinery. Mechanical drawing, from the standpoint of anyone who has studied it, is nothing more than applied descriptive geometry or geometry that deals with the representation of solids in space. To make it more clear, let us imagine two planes, one horizontal, the other vertical, intersecting in a straight line, called the ground line, and forming four right diethal angles or quadrants. An object may be placed in either one of the quadrants and its form or outline projected perpendicularly to both planes. The form drawn on the horizontal plane will then be called the top view or 'plan, and the form drawn on the vertical plane, the side view or elevation. Due to the fact that a drawing must be in a single plane fthe plane of the drawing paperl, the vertical plane must be imagined as being rotated about the ground line as an axis until it coincides with the horizontal plane, form- ing a single plane. A practical draftsman sooner or later discards these complicated mental processes for simpler ones that meet his purpose just as well. Another branch of drawing, architectural, is more or less of an art because success in that branch is attained not only by hard study, but with talent as well. The latter is probably the reason why there are so few good architects. A machine drawer, although he needs little or no talent, has to have a liking for his work, and must study as well. His work is not as artistic as an architect's. A mistake by either is apt to cause serious trouble by a loss of time and consequently money. A good illustration is that of a concrete building in the east that tumbled before com- pletion either because of faulty material, faulty workmanship, or faulty architecture. lt was never determined who was to blame, but it could have been the fault of the draftsman as well as of anyone else. Not a nail is driven, a girder put in place, or any kind of construction work done today without the help of the architect. I-Ie is the one who starts the construction work and it may well be said, Around him the work revolves. G. K. PATTON. THE CARNATION Nagy 151s , , , I MECHANICAL DRAWING CLASS f ...gl I6 THE CARNATION TI-IE WOOD-TURNING SHOP ACK in the southwest corner of the first Hoor may be l seen what is officially known as Room ll3. The boys ltwiviit ' 1 ' ' h k ' 1. in the manua training course, owever, now it as t e wood-turning shop. It is a long shop, well lighted by a row of high windows on each side. It is equipped with twenty-five benches and twenty- five speed lathes, including an instruction demonstration bench lathe. The shop is well supplied with tools of a good quality for both bench and lathe work. The shop is the center of the manual training activities dur- ing the second year in this course. Up to this time the classes had a year's foundation work, consisting of joinery and cabinet making. They have learned a good many things about wood working, and about wood itself, also many things about the care of wood-working tools and that the grindstoine is not a mere ornament. ' i And the classes are now ready to try their hands at wood turning. A study is made of the lathe-its mechanism and con- struction, its adjustment and care. Each boy is assigned to his own individual machine to operate and control. It is fascinating, indeed, and the boys feel like they are breaking into the big league, for before this time they have had little to do with ma- chinery. And where is the boy who does not get a thrill out of watching-yes, and making the wheels go round? They now have issued to them a drawer full of queer looking toolsg turning gauges, screw chisels, and several others, all of which are unlike those to which they have been accustomed. The boys are compelled to begin at the beginning to learn the uses of these tools. ,They learn not only their uses, but the care of them as well. And that brings us back to the grindstone. There are two grindstones in the wood-turning shop. The various processes are learned by completing certain exer- cises and by working on various useful projects. Here is im- pressed upon the student as never before, the importance of be- ing ever on the alert. A mental lapse, though for only a moment, may destroy the result of several hours' work. The work which is done gives practice in spindle turning, face plate turning, and chuck work. ln addition the work offers a splendid opportunity for applied design, and an opportunity to learn some new methods of wood finishing. Following the wood-turning course, the subjects of pattern making and molding are then taken up. Here bench and lathe work in the making of various types of patterns are combined. Classes begin- to understand the true meaning of the word ac- curacy. The various moulding processes are not only discussed in the pattern making class, but illustrated in the moulding shop by using patterns made by the pupils. The climax of the wood working courses comes when boys behold the metal casting, the form of which has been fashioned by their own pattern, and they are eager to pass on to the metal work, whichfis the beginning of the third year's work.

THE CARNATION THE ART DEPARTMENT STRANGER, traversing our halls, will surely notice that Rooms 307, 308 and 309 present a somewhat different appearance from the average classrooms. No wonder! They are the studios of the McKinley's artists. They are the workshops of Miss Barbee, Miss Place and Miss Brown, all of whom are graduates of Pratt lnstitute of New York. There are two general art courses, the household art course and the commercial art course. The two courses have subjects in common, but the main difference is that the household arts course includes problems which correlate with domestic science, while the problems of commercial art generally pertain to art as a whole and all its troubles. However, nearly everything given in the household art course is given in the regular art course, except a few things that apply directly to dressmaking and similar subjects. Pose drawing, lettering, still life in water color, and out-of-door sketching are some of the things done only in the regular art course. ln the last terms both courses offer textile de- signing, book making and art history. The regular art course fcommercialj is a four-year course with double periods daily. Those who cannot take all four years of it have the opportunity of electing a substitute the first four terms and taking this work in the last two years of the general course. This interests girls especially, who intend to become teachers, since the first two years of art lay a general foundation for all the principles. The household arts course alternates cooking and sewing with art and emphasizes block printing, botik, pottery, and stencil. The Art Department has a splendid all around equipment in- cluding a collection of very interesting pottery, from all parts of the world. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT T ' HE. Commercial branch in McKinley courses is primarily l 'nie .- for those students wishing training in practical business affairs. The subjects offered in this department are all extremely practical and are usually taken by students who expect to enter the business world upon leaving high school. Pupils are constantly leaving McKinley well trained to take their places in the business life of our city. The following subjects, some of those offered in the Commer- cial Department, furnish a varied course of training: Typewriting, office practice, arithmetic, penmanship, spelling, bookkeeping, salesmanship and advertising, business administration, stenog- raphy and accounting. These along with other subjects in other departments fit a student for life in the business world. It is needless to state the great importance of the Commer- cial Department. lts advantages are apparent and its results justify its importance. Too much stress cannot be laid upon the importance of practical studies, such as those offered in the Com- mercial Department. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT the many subjects offered by McKinley High School, from chemistry and trigonometry to arithmetic and book- keeping, there is one with which every pupil is familiar, and that subject is the study of the English language. Six terms of this work are required for graduation in any four-year course. The benefits of an extensive knowledge of our tongue are manifold. Good English is not only essential for the tenure of a really high-class position, but also is an indication of good breed- ing, ancl adds in no small measure to the enjoyment of life. Any successful engineer is able to make an intelligent report in good THE GARNATIQN 4119134-. English of his work, just as the letters dictated by a high execu- tive are free from mistakes in grammar. For that matter, no one who had but a limited knowledge of English would be able to prepare for such a position. My second assertion is not likely to be questioned. As for the third, there are only a few of us who do not derive great pleasure from reading, and it is certainly impossible to enjoy good books without the ability, afforded by English, to understand them. The courses in this subject offered at our school meet all the requirements mentioned above. English one and two, as the study during the first and second terms is popularly called, are practical in nature. One's knowledge of grade school grammar is reviewed and increased. Certain books are also studied. English three is entirely devoted to composition work in descrip- tion, narration and exposition. English four consists of the study of literature, The Merchant of Venice and The Ancient Mariner being read. ln English five one continues the work of English three. Everyone must participate in a debate. After the short story has been studied extensively, each pupil must write one of these, strictly original, of course. Burke's Speech and Macbeth are not likely to be forgotten by those who have completed their sixth term in English, another literature course. English seven and eight are given over to the study of English literature from the Twelfth Century to the present time. They are not compulsory, and are purely cultural. There are two other features met with in every term of English. Each pupil must read at least two books and report upon' them. The authors are selected, consequently one is re- stricted in his reading, which must be done outside of class. The other feature is the memorizing of not less than one hundred lines of poetry, likewise by selected writers, each semester. A course in public speaking is also offered. This training is, of course, invaluable to certain pupils, and it will be a great benefit to anyone. It will be seen that the courses in English afforded us are valuable, supplying knowledge which is certainly exceedingly useful in later life as well as at the present time. FOREIGN LANGUAGES KgAQt!, have offered to us at McKinley courses in Spanish, Latin, French and German. These languages can be taken from two to four years, but you will probably not be satisfied with only two years of any of these languages. It is at the end of this time that you begin to enjoy the subject. The first year you are introduced to the languageg the second year you become acquainted with itg the third year you become friendlier, and the fourth year you become true pals. The pupils who take a language for two years miss the best part of it. lt takes at least two years to get a general idea of the vocabulary and grammar of the language, but, after having it, you cannot help but enjoy the work. The third and fourth years you read stories and poems, with a little grammar in be- tween, but on the whole your lessons are like social recitations. Everyone enjoys listening to a book report in an English class, and this is the same kind of work. You learn the ways and customs of the people, their manners and their government and their life in general. To tell you about the foreign language department, and not to tell you about the advantages you receive, for, after all, that's what interests you, is unfair. D6 you realize that the language taken at McKinley is going to help you advance more rapidly in the business world? Do you know that foreign languages help you, not only to speak English better, but to speak it with more ease and grace? The world of today needs men and women who speak a foreign language more than ever. We are trading with Mexico, which means that Spanish speaking people 'V I ...gf 20 jet- THE CARNATION are in great demand. French and German are both used to a great extent in America and Europe. Latin, called a dead language, is the best means to procure a foundation for any other language. Many more advantages could be pointed out, but the main thing is that the study will help you advance, and that is sufficient. The number of pupils taking the various languages varies. The largest number is found in the Spanish departments, the sec- ond largest is in the French Department, then the Latin Depart- ment, and last the German Department. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the German language has only been taught the past few terms on account of the war. lt doesn't matter so much the language you take, as it does the good you receive from it. HISTORY DEPARTMENT ISTORY at McKinley High is each year increasing in its Value and extensiveness. lt is now possible to take his- tory as a major study. The histories now offered are: lndustrial, Ancient, Medieval, English, Modern and American. These courses offer the students an extensive study in history which is of great value to them in University. The amount of History required in most cases is one year, that being Modern and American in the last two terms of school. Most pupils, however, take at least two years of history and many are majoring in this important subject, taking the full three years. ln the study of History one not only learns of the past, but also learns the relation of the past to the present, which is es- sential in order to understand conditions of today. The histories excluding Industrial cover the period from the ancient ,to present day happenings. They deal with the important events which f in any way affect the present history of the world, and give one a broader conception of the life, habits, and governments in other nations. MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT HE pupil' who takes mathematics at McKinley is certain to be repaid for the time and effort he puts into the study of this subject, since he has the advantage of attending a school where the staff of teachers is most capable, and where the field of subjects is unusually broad. There is general mathematics for the student who wishes to obtain a general and miscellaneous knowledge of algebra and geometry in a short timeg this course may be completed in a year. It is especially adapted to the needs of the pupil taking a two-year course. One may make a more de- tailed and lengthy study of elementary algebra by taking a year of it. The same thing is true of geometry. For the scholar de- siring to continue, there are two terms of advanced algebra and another of solid geometry offered. There is, too, a term of plane trigonometry available. Likewise, the commercial pupil is trained in rapid calculation and the like by the study of commercial arithmetic. Thus one may see that the study of mathematics at McKinley affords a strong foundation. One is fitted for the mathematical work encountered in business by commercial arithmeticg or, by longer study in this field-by studying algebra for four terms, geometry for three, and trigonometry for one, for example- one is equipped for college work in preparing for a profession. But even to anyone who does not contemplate the direct use of mathematics in his life occupation, its value is very great. One's mind is always actively employed while solving a problem. Moreover, accuracy is cultivated, and the reasoning powers de- THE CARNATION ...gil Zl veloped. This is true in so great a degree in no other subject. Every lVlcKinleyite should avail himself of the opportunity to become acquainted with this important study, for, as has been said, he will derive no small benefit from the work. THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT F ERI-IAPS one of the most interesting groups of subjects taught in the curricula of McKinley High School is the sciences. Practical and theoretical, somewhat difficult, yet interesting, this work is quite popular with all pupils who really make a serious study of it. Included are biology, physics, chemistry, physiography, and general science. The latter is a general mixture of many topics, usually taken by those who do not intend to take as much science in later terms as might be possible. Botany is the study of plant lifeg physiology deals with animal lifeg and the two are included under the head of biology. Three terms of physics are offered. ln the first, one takes up machines, properties of gases and of liquids, accelera- tion, and elementary principles. ln the second, magnetism, heat, electricity and light are discussedg while the third includes a de- tailed study of topics already given attention. ln chemistry one and two, one learns much concerning properties of metals and other elements and their compounds, but chemistry three, spent almost entirely in the laboratory, deals with analysis. This is probably the most interesting subject one can take at high school, if he is the least bit scientifically inclined. Physiography may be termed physical geography. The origination of hills and valleys and other pleasurable work is taken up. The values of the above studies are self-evident. One who intends to follow any scientific calling can get an excellent founda- tion for his work right here at McKinley. Be sure not to let this opportunity slip by. THE BOYS' GYM i. HE boys of McKinley, under the direction of Mr. Voss and Dr. Grueb, have outlined a definite program from which they receive the most benefit and at the same time the most pleasure possible. Of course, all the gymnasium work at McKinley is under a great handicap due to the lack of space and apparatus. The large gym, which contains a very limited amount of equipment is entirely too small for the proper' physical advancement. The small gym is also inadequate for the size of the classes and the work that should be done. lVlcKinley, nevertheless, taking the situation as it is, has de- veloped a system in gymnasium work which tends to create an interest in and a desire for the work. The classes are so arranged that the boys of the same term are placed together. During the year the following events are taken as outside work: Running high jump, running broad jump, standing broad jump, and shot put. The boys are divided into three classes, the midgets, juniors and seniors, so that boys of the same size and age will compete against each other. Indoor baseball is played each term, as long as the weather will permit. In the winter, as indoor work, the following events are made competitive: Front pull up, push up, pole climbing, and work on the horizontal bars. At the end of each term the scores made in all the events are added and the boys are ranked accordingly. The gymnasium department of lVlcKinley is not as adequate as it should be for the size of the school. The average high school boy does not receive the proper amount of physical edu- cation. The tendency is to limit the training to the small group of boys competing in interscholastic athletics. Of course, it would be desirable to have more time each week for gymnasium work. It would be well to have a swimming pool and many more con- veniences. However, conditions exist which prevent a model department. Nevertheless, no matter how efficient the depart- --'asf 22139 THE GARNATION ment may be, it does not matter how much time may be given to the work, if the boys in taking the work do not wish to receive any benefit, the gym itself is of little avail. McKinley boys are anxious for development and therefore co-operate with the efficient instructors for the best possible results. GIRLS' GYM NE. of the most popular departments at McKinley is the girls' gymnasium, which is under the care of our excellent instructors, the Misses Watt and Varian. Interest has been aroused in the girls' gymnasium classes by the organization of baseball teams. The purpose of the teams besides making gymnasium work more interesting for our girls, is to teach them a few rules of the game, so that, when they witness the interschol- astic contests, they may understand the plays. Although four years of physical training is required, the work does not become tiresome, but is pleasant exercise and sport, when taken under the guidance of such able instructors as ours. There is a special class for girls, which meets during the seventh period, and which is made up of the girls who have shown that their work is above the average and of those girls who are interested in dancing. There is also a class of this sort which meets during the first period and is, for the most part, not quite so advanced as the seventh period class. ln these classes Rus- sian bar exercises are given and also some floor work, consisting of simple combinations, although few dances are attempted. Those girls whose school work is good may get special permis- sion to take gymnasium work every day from the office. i ln all gymnasium classes work must be taken twice a week during all four years. lt is needless to say that physical training is just as important to the body as is study to the mind. There is nothing more beneficial than exercise properly taken, and since athletics have played so great a part in school life, the boys and girls of the country have been better prepared to take their places in the social or business world.

The sky was an ominous grey color, full of clouds that fore- casted a snowy Christmas. A raw, cold wind whistled up and down the streets and not many people were seen. Down Evans avenue there came a man. He was apparently about twenty-eight or thirty. A disreputable looking black felt hat was pulled down over the head of yellow, curly hair, but left to View a pair of thoughtful blue eyes, brooding eyes that could look merry if their owner were in a happier frame of mind. His nose was straight and perfect, while his full lips would have disclosed beautiful white teeth had he been smiling. He was very tall and powerful looking. Q He came to a stop before a house in front of which a pile of coal lay apparently ready to be put in the basement. He eyed it speculatively a moment, then turned and went up the steps to the door. Here he hesitated as always, his pride made him reluc- tant to ask for jobs of menial character. Finally he rang the doorbell. When the housewife answered the door he hesitantly asked for the job of putting the coal in. The woman looked at the snow clouds in the sky, thought a minute and then asked what he would charge. Upon hearing that he would do it for a dollar she said the job was his. He stood wrapt in thought a moment beside the wheelbar- row and finally began to shovel in slow heavy loads. Suddenly he was accosted by a small boy, who came flying down the steps from a neighboring house. Here, you, watcha mean, takin' my job away from me? lVIiss Gillis promised me seventy-fi' cents fer puttin' that coal in, an' I was goin' to put it in this afternoon, too, and o-o-oh, now I won' get that seventy-fn' cents and I on'ey needed that much more! he ended, wailing disconsolately. He didn't look to be much more than ten years old. The man had to smile at the idea of this mite of a boy handling the huge shovel, which even he found difficult to work with. What's your name, sonny, and what did you only need seventy-five cents more for? he inquired, smiling. lVIy name's Danny Woodruff, but I don't see anything fer yuh to smile about when yuh go an' take a fella's job, the little fellow cried with a fresh burst of tears. I needed that seventy-fi' cents, too. It's on'ey two days 'til Christmas an' I jus' got a dollar an' a quarter and I gotta get two dollars. My mummie's sick an' I wanna buy 'er a mos' beeyutiful cap that's down at the dry goods store, an' it costs two-o-o dollars an' I need sev- enty-fi' cents more an' now I can't git it, he sobbed, digging his grimy fists in his eyes while the tears ran down the poor little face until it was almost raw. i During this tearful speech the man had stood leaning on his shovel, gazing thoughtfully at the woe begone little figure. He sighed and his clear blue eyes lit up as he smiled. Well, son, I see your point of view. The job was really yours, but the work was assigned to me. Now I'll tell you, sup- pose I do the work I'm supposed to, and pay you the seventy- five cents for your job and l'll keep the twenty-five cents. Will that do? He regarded the small, dubious face with serious amusement. You know we really ought to be friends anyway, for- my name is Danny, too-Danny Jones. The lad's howls had quieted and now he regarded the man gravely, Well, would ut be fair? Would ut really an' truly be my money? Of course, he was assured, You deserve the seventy-five cents for letting me have the job, I think. ...gy 24 jg... THE CARNATION Well, then, he decided, 'l guess maybe l'll stay an' talk to you while you're workin'-if you' don't mind, the youngster ended up shyly and rather hesitantly, for it was clear that his friendship for the other had been won. Gee, ut's an awful load off my mind, remarked young Danny as he settled himself on the curbstone, shivering. You know, he pursued the subject with greater interest, it makes you feel so nice an' sorta warm an' happy way down inside when you can git up on Christmas morning and go in and give your mother somethin' an' then she'll kiss you and hug you an' say a lot of nice things an' tell you how much she likes the present. l'm gonna git my mother the most beeyutiful fancy cap l ever saw. lt's down in the dry goods store window. lt's got all lacy things an' ribbons on it an' it'll look so purty on my sweet little mother, he glowed enthusiastically. Then as he was diverted by another thought, What you gonna give your mother? Huh? The ,elder Danny had listened to this monologue with a strangely sweet look on his face, but his eyes were full of tears. He put down his shovel and thought a moment. What was he going to give his mother? His dear little gray-haired mother probably waiting and longing for him now back in that little Indiana town. He hadn't seen her since he-came home from war. He had been a wanderer. The Wanderlust was still strong within him, but even in that moment he felt a certain inexplicable some- thing creep into his heart, a something akin to a happiness he had not felt for many a day. He looked down at the earnest brown eyes regarding him so seriously and felt a tide of warm color flood his face. Why, Danny, l-I-l haven't decided, but-she'll get something-some- thing which lu hope will please her. Then the conversation branched into more general lines and other topics were discussed. When the coal was in the basement and the shovel and wheelbarrow put away, Danny Jones collected the money, a crisp dollar bill. He didn't like to ask for change and yet didn't know how to get some change for little Danny. He put the problem up to his little friend. Dontcha' wanna come to my house an' wash up, Mr. Danny Jones? asked the youngster, Han' then l could give you my quarter an' you could give me your dollar an' that ud be right, wouldn't ut? Danny Jones nodded gravely, But I'll tell you, sonny, l don't think l'd better wash up in your house because- well-because l can wait. Aw, come on, the little fellow urged him, my mother won't care: you better, he added seriously, 'cause your face is awfully dirty! Well, Danny Jones succumbed to his young friend's en- treaties, all right, but let's hurry. Their business was transacted inthe kitchen where Danny had washed his face and hands. Then a voice that somehow vaguely reminded him of the past was heard from the next room, Danny, dear, come here a minute, will you? It was said just in the tone in which his mother had used when calling him. With this reminder came a thousand memories. Little Danny had left the door ajar when he unceremoniously rushed away, leaving his guest alone in the kitchen. Danny could hear a low hum of voices and catch an enthusiastic phrase occasionally of the boy's excited chatter. Such a nice man. He knows so awful much! Such nice eyes, mother! ln a moment little Danny bounced in and imparted the de- lighted news that there was a thermos of hot coffee and a half a cherry pie which his mother had said they might have. When Danny Woodruff finally had to part with Danny jones he thought sure he was going to cry, 'cause he liked him so awful much! Danny jones, too, felt a pang of sorrow when he went down the bleak street, leaving the solitary little figure behind him. THE CARNATION .ttf 25 jig..- He stopped in a confectionery with the idea of buying a package of cigarettes. The little old man who kept the store was nowhere to be seen. Glancing around the little store Danny's eyes fell on an old-fashioned till, it was wide open and con- tained money--bills of several denominations and silver in abundance lying there, waiting for someone. Money, the thing I need most, thought Danny Jones, here it is, within my reach. With this I could go home and put up a good appearance. I could take my mother a fine present, and then his eyes fell on some goods in the window, marked Soiled--to be sold at re- duced pricesf' It occurred to him that should he take this money to present himself as a gift in splendid wrappings, he would be cheap, worthless, even as was this soiled goods in the window. He turned and walked out of the store. Christmas morning a long freight train passed through Cen- terville, lndiana, and on it was Danny jones, but he did not pass through. He jumped off and looked at the familiar old station, with a feeling of satisfaction. His face glowed with happiness at the thought of his coming home on Christmas Day, bringing to his mother a faultless gift, free from Haws, as was a perfectly turned-out factory article. Ten minutes later a happy little gray-haired mother was cry- ing with joy over a penniless son who returned to her with the look imprinted on his honest face that meantq'First Class and Unsoiledf' n LUCILLE WALLACE. FAME DOES Nor sPo1L HERE had been no excitement in Pleasantville since over eight months ago when its noted native son, now a great Mig author, Pierce Norton, had come home. But now the town was agog with excitement for the far-famed motion picture actress, Dolores Pettingill, was returning to her home town. ,The people of the town had known her in childhood under the colorful name of Petunia Smith. However, when her ability began to shine in Hollywood, that name didn't seem exactly appropriate. Now, she was a high salaried and really gifted young actress and was therefore deeply revered by her friends in Pleasantville. However, all the people in Pleasantville were not her friends. Among those who weren't, a certain Mrs. Sophronia Winkle and her daughter, commonly known as Sissy, stood out. H , Mrs. Winkle lived next to Mrs. Smith, but didn't know Petunia very well, because she had just moved there five years ago when Petunia went to seek her fame and fortune in Holly- wood. From all l seen of her, l sorta thought she wuz a skinny lank lookin' girl. Now, take my Sissy fer instance, l'd say she's a sight better lookin' than this Dolores Pettingill, her with her high falutin' names, as if her own name wa'n't good enough for her. Oh, she'll put on a lot of high falutin' airs all right, but she won't git very far with me ! Mrs. Winkle was wont to remark the day before Petunia's return. Sissy Winkle cherished other opinions on the subject, for while she was no adorer of Petunia's, she wasn't going to let her know it. She was going to don her best dress and go to call on her in the hope that Petunia would notice some startling re- semblance in her, or an unusual ability to act and insist upon her coming to Hollywood. Petunia was coming home to help her mother sell the furni- ture, pack up and go to Hollywood, where it was hoped that her poor health would improve. All the townspeople planned to go to the station and meet the actress when she arrived. The Mayor was learning a very impressive speech, which he was going to deliver. He was very proud of the way it began, therefore most of the town had heard -5gj261g.-.- THE GARNATION p about it. He was going to assume a kindly pose and start Wel- come, O famous daughter of Pleasantville. Although the name of 'Dolores Pettingillf is renowned from the sunny coasts of Cali- fornia to the rock-bound coasts of old New England,-nowhere is it so loved and respected as in Pleasantville, for here we know it stands for our dear little friend, Petunia Smith. Sissy Winkle aptly expressed herself in saying that Part of it sounded some- thin' like a patriotic song. Petunia- was to arrive on the noon train Saturday. Saturday morning in Gint's store Sissy related how Mrs. Smith sure was gettin' swell, hirin' a white maid to do the cookin' and polish the stove. - She based her claim on having seen the maid that very morning. I guess, tho' it's 'cause Mrs. Smith had a purty bad stroke Tuesday and didn't feel up to it herself. Having volunteered this she sailed out in triumph under the impression that this peace of news would cause a stir. On her way home Sissy met up with the Mayor, a Mr. l-Ioosengoofer. Oh, how d'ye do this morning, Mr. Hoosen- goofer? Huttered Sissy. Why, good morning, Miss Sissy, re- turned the good man, with the benign manner that caused the people of the town to say that he wasn't one of those stuck-up kind. And how are you this morning? he inquired. Oh, why l'm just feeling grand this morning, snickered Sissy. But, oh, Mr. Hoosengoofer, have you heard the news about Mrs. Smith? , Why, no, I hadn't heard anything about her, why? Noth- ing serious I hope! that gentleman exclaimed with an intended look of anxiety on his face. Oh, no, simpered the young lady coyly, just that sheis got a white maid thet's been workin' around the house all morning, and we can't jest exactly get hep to what it means, unless Mrs. Smith is feelin' worse again. She had quite a stroke Tuesday. .Poor woman, she'll have a hard time of it when Petunia gets home, becuz I heard as how she needs a maid all her own to help dress her. Now kin you imagine that? ended up Miss Sissy in a disgusted tone. Well, now, Miss Sissy, if you have no more marketing to do, suppose I accompany you home and we stop in Mrs. Smith's a moment. l've been meaning to ask her to ride down to the sta- tion with me in my machine, proposed Mr. Hoosengoofer pomp- ously. ' All right, giggled Sissy nervously as they started down the street. They were truly a queer looking couple, Mr. Hoosen- goofer and Sissy Winkle. Mr. Hoosengoofer was short, fat and pompous. He was baldheaded, red-faced and had a wart on his nose, but was single and therefore considered a very good matri- monial subject by most of the ladies in town. His small beady eyes glowed with self-importance, while even his long, thick, black mustache bristled aggressively. As he waddled along that morning in his tall black hat, frock coat, yellow vest, gray trou- sers, yellow spats and patent pumps, by the side of the robust Sissy, he was, indeed, a figure. Sissy was a tall, plump girl of buxom appearance. I-Ier fat, rosy cheeks bespoke a good appe- tite while her small, blue eyes were rather coquettish at times. She wore her hair in as many puffs, rolls and curls as she could gather it into. So you can readily see that she, too, made a very pleasing figure. When they finally arrived at the Smith home, Mrs. Smith answered the door, looking somewhat surprised. She was a small, gray-haired lady, with sweet, mild blue eyes and ever-smiling lips. Why, good morning, Mr. Hoosengoofer and Sissy! she ex- claimed, ucome right in. Once seated, Mr. I-loosengoofer cleared his throat portentously and prepared to speak while Sissy yearned to ask about the maid. Mrs. Smith, the mayor began, I was just wondering whether or not you could make use of my car to go down to the' station and meet your daughter when she THE CARNATION -.sf 27 jig. arrives. As Mrs. Smith didn't say anything, 'Sissy struck in, now that she had the chance. My, won't Petunia be pleased when she finds out that you have a maid. But l bet she'll make her be more perticler about her personal appearance than she was when I seen her this mornin'. My, she was a dirty lookin' sight. She'd been polishin' the stove. At each word Mrs. Smith had looked more surprised, but finally, with a queer smile, she went to the stairway and called: Oh, Pet, come here a minute. There was a moment of breath- less silence and then down the- stairs came a girl in a gingham apron, which showed the remains of stove polish and her wavy brown hair was caught smoothly back in a knot. Cn her pretty and regular featured face there was a smudge of stove polish, which could not hide the delicate refinement of the face. As she came down Mrs. Smith laughed and said: Pet came unex- pectedly at midnight last night. Mr. Hoosengoofer and Miss sWinkle, may I present my daughter? . LUCILLE WALLACE.

Returns After Five Years Abroad vt o Lawrence, called Larry for convenience, had long idolized Malcolm Harridge. The subject of his idolatry was a now famous violinist, who had left New York five years ago, alone, except for his best friend, his violin. After studying a number of years, he played at a Paris theatre as a substitute, and from that time forth his career was one of success. He had become famous overnight, now he was returning to his native land, while all Europe held him in admiration. Needless to say, perhaps, Larry was a musician. His father had played the violin and no one could play like he! Larry had inherited much of his father's talent. After the death of his father, Larry's only consolation was his violin, which he played for hours at a time. The money which Larry and his mother possessed began to slowly dwindle away, until his violin had to be sold with the rest of their property. The death of Larry's mother left him alone except for his warm-hearted land lady, Mrs. Schmidt. Malcolm Harridge was in New York. There was no doubt about that. He had landed the day before and was to give a recital that very night. Oh, thought Larry. If I could only hear him play. But tickets cost money, and to be sure, Larry had none too much after paying his rent. However, he decided that he would wait outside the theatre and perhaps get a glimpse of the idolized musician. That evening Larry hurried to the hall, but the crowd was so large he could not get close enough to see the artist as he hurried into the building. The concert crowd gradually dispersed, but Larry stayed until the concert was over and the crowd poured from the theatre. Long after everyone had gone, Larry waited for the appearance of the violinist. When he did not appear, Larry cautiously approached the edifice. Growing bolder, he entered. As he saw no one he concluded all had gone. His sur- mise was confirmed when the lights of the auditorium were turned off. Turning to leave he saw a violin case standing in a corner. It must be Mr. Harridge's, he said aloud and his heart gave a thump. I'II take it home and return it tomorrow. With that, he picked up the violin and quickly hurried home. The next morning, when he opened the case, he could not resist the temptation to play the violin. So he began to play slowly at first, but the music grew faster and faster. No one will know I found it, he said. 'Tm going to keep it. Placing it under his bed, he went to work. As the day advanced, the yearning to play again on the won- derful violin grew stronger and stronger, until he thought he could not wait for evening. When the whistle blew, for the closing of the office, he fairly ran through the corridors and streets to his home-and the violin. Y He played and played, and had no thought of stopping, when he heard someone knock at the door. A sudden dread seized him. Was it the police? Quickly hiding the violin, he opened the door. Instead of the blue-coated figure he had expected there stood his landlady with a covered dish in her hand. You didn't get no supper, and I dink maybe you vas sick. Iss you all right? she asked anxiously, handing him the dish. Why, I forgot all about supper! Thanks, Mrs. Schmidt for bringing it up. Dat's all right, Larry. I guess you vere so busy playin' you didn't get hungry. Did you buy dat fiddle? Larry started and said, Oh-er-why-ah-no. It was-it is myli I THE CARNATION --e3f.291ga-- Your fadder's? finished Mrs. Schmidt. Vell, dat's nice dat you play him so fine. Cute Nacht. Good night, said Larry mechanically. Here was a com- plication. Surely everyone would have heard him play and know he was a thief. I'll take it back tomorrow, he decided and went to bed, but not to sleep. All sorts of thoughts haunted him. Suppose Mr. I-Iarridge would turn him over to the police? What if they should arrest him before he returned the instrument? Finally he fell into slumber disturbed by dreams of his arrest. Upon awakening he looked at the clock. It was stopped, for he had forgotten to wind it. Dressing hurriedly he went to the door and called, What time is it, Mrs. Schmidt? Just seven-thirty, Larry. Iss you late? A Yes, he answered and rushed into his room again. A few' minutes later he reappeared ready for work. Give me an apple, please, will you, Mrs. Schmidt? I haven't got time for breakfast. Good-hearted Mrs. Schmidt picked the finest apple from her basket and polished it on her gingham apron. Good-bye, she said as Larry left, and in answer received a mumbled, Don't wait for me at supper. 'Byef' The hours dragged along. Wouldn't it ever be five o'clock? At last! Larry hurried out of the building and set off towards home. Arriving there, he snatched up the violin case and left again. This time he got on a trolley car and rode quite a long distance. When he alighted from the car he entered a hotel and inquired if Mr. I-Iarridge was in. The clerk said he was and gave him the number of Mr. I-Iarridge's room. Larry walked up the stairs slowly and once stopped as if to go back. But he kept on, however, and rang the bell of the room. A valet came to the door. Is Mr. I-Iarridge in? Larry asked. Yes, replied the man. Come in. Larry entered visibly embarrassed. I-Ie sat down on the edge of a chair, but soon rose, when a minute later a tall man entered the room. Well, son, he said. What can I do for you? just then his eyes turned towards the violin and he started. My violin! 'Yes, Larry said. I-I found it in the hall and took it home. I--Q So you are the one that caused all this trouble, Harridge interrupted. You see, I told my man, Briggs, to take it, but he put it down for a minute while he attended to some business. When he returned and found it gone, he of course thought I had taken it. Now tell me your story. Well, I was standing around the hall, hoping l'd see you. But when everybody had gone I went in and saw the violin. I took it with the intention of returning it, but when I had played it I felt as though it were mine. But the landlady asked me about the violin and in thinking it over I decided it was plain stealing and made up my mind to return it, and here I am. Harridge had taken the violin out of its case during this re- cital and was tuning it softly. When he had finished he handed it to Larry and said, Play something. Larry seized the violin eagerly, and began to play. All un- knowingly he played the story of the lost violin. As the music ceased the artist said, My lad, I believe you have talent. I'll make you an artist. What? almost shouted Larry. I mean that you live with me and l'll give you the best musical education in my power to bestow. And I know you won't fail. Are you willing to try? Geel said Larry. I sure will, and to think I almost stole your violin. And two big tears swelled up in his eyes and rolled down his cheeks. You didn't, though, Larry. And never forget that Honesty is the best policy. I won't, said Larry, thoughtfully. And he didn't.

Say that Missouri leads the nation in the production of lead and of walnut lumber, in the it V , gk Il V QWQCS l growing of chewing tobacco and farm productsg praise the paradise of the hunter and fisherman: describe Kansas City and St. Louis, the greatest markets in the world for farm tractors, hay, clay products, cattle and wheat, for horses, mules, shoes, stoves, hardware and tobacco. Having begun existence as a fur trading and producing ter- ritory, it has enlarged that industry constantly until, as one com- pares the produce in the time of the early pioneers to that of the present day, the early activities in this field appear dwarfed by contrast. Today almost all the furs produced in North America come from a district with a radius of about six hundred miles around St. Louis as its center. lncidentally, hardly a trap- per in the country ships his pelts to any city other than St. Louis. The distinction of being the world's greatest fur trading city, formerly claimed by Novgorod and Leipzig, now belongs to the Mound City. In the picturesque early days when Texas waged war with Mexico for her independence, when people were needed to populate the colorful West, a slow, steady, endless procession of heavy prairie schooners, followed by men and boys, dogs and live stock, lazily wencled its way through and from Missouri, the gateway to the unknown and promising lands of the setting sun. Again in the gold strikes this rush was repeated. Today this procession continues to move westward, by rail, of course, over the rich and valuable land of Missouri to the uncertain pros- pect offered by their destination. Missouri has taken the lead in educating the farmer. An experiment station is conducted by the State University, by which valuable circulars are also distributed. Every year the farmers are invited to a series of lectures given at the University for a week. The youths are encouraged to compete for prizes in vari- ous agricultural contests. 'Corn is the chief crop, about 2 I 2,000,- 000 bushels being grown in l920. ' The days of ignorance are past. Cnly three per cent of the people are illiterate. The schools of Kansas City are second to those of but one city in the entire Union. Among other well- known educational institutions are Washington University, Mis- souri University, Rolla School of Mines, and the School of Journalism at Columbia. Likewise, the time is past when every man or youth neces- sarily packed a gun, or when lynching was common. Justice has emerged triumphant, making Missouri a safe and peaceful place in which to live. P In short, we live in a State which, all things considered, need bow to none other. It is known the world over. Its products are rich and plenteousg its industry is flourishing, its natural re- sources are rich and valuable, its citizens are prosperous and law- abiding. Boost Missouri. She's worth the effort. GASEOUS WARFARE RADICAL change has come ab.out in modes of warfare. When one thlnks of the projectile of a cannon, his mind pictures an exploding shell filled with shrapnel, bits of which are scattered far and wide, with disastrous effects. How- ever, a new type of shell has sprung into being. This new style, far more efficient than the old, is a container loaded with poisonous gas. . . The new type is infinitely more dangerous, for the cannon ball might -be seen 'or heard, while gases may be invisible, in- -,asf 32 jg... THE 0.4RNA1'10N audible, and odorless. A relatively heavy piece of iron may strike a man without causing death, but a small quantity of the right gas will absolutely overcome him. The cannon ball is spent when it has exploded, while the gas may search out the most hidden dugout, lingering for days. The gas is far more efficient in its deadly work than the shell, which is yielding its place more and more to its superior. Many gases of different types were used in the late war. The first was chlorine, a yellow gas extremely unpleasant to breathe. lt is sent to the enemy by allowing it to swoop rapidly down without warning on the wings of a favorable wind. Being heavier than air, the gas will not rise. Its choking effects are not likely to be forgotten by any student of chemistry. Phosgene, later developed by the Germans, is so fatal that one part in ten thousand of air caused certain death. Mere traces have a marked effect upon the heart, so that even slight exertion must be avoided for days. One may wonder how the allies were able to guard against this deadly poison. The fact of the matter is that they were informed through their Intelligence Department in advance of the use of this gas. By experiment they discovered that hexamethylene tetramine counteracts phosgene, and they were able to provide gas masks soaked in that liquid for our men. This country manufactured chlorpicrin in great quantities. Shells were filled with the liquified gas, and about twenty per cent of tin chloride was added. Together the two produce dense white fumes that penetrate gas masks. I Mustard gas has a great advantage in that it is liquid at tem- peratures but little lower than ordinary, and is volatilized by the sun's heat. Conveyed to the hostile trenches in a shell, its con- tainer is exploded, and the liquid impregnates soil and clothing with no one even suspecting its presence. When it is evaporated by the sun, it attacks both skin and lung tissues, producing severe burns in the one and causing bronchitis or pneumonia in the other. It is extremely hard to drive awayg in fact, it will lie in wait for the unsuspecting soldier for days. Other gases of less fatal effect were used for special purposes, under which head come tear and sneeze gases. These will cause anyone to remove his gas mask, and then the more poisonous gases come into play. The use of poisons in warfare has been opposed on the ground that the death caused thereby is cruel. Yet that death is no worse nor more agonizing than one due to a rifle ball. When gun- powder was discovered, its use was regarded as villainous in the extreme. The United States has consistently opposed attempts to bar this weapon, and her stand is well defended by the fact that every belligerent in the World War employed this mode of fighting. And it will certainly be used in the next war. BOOTH TARKINGTGN 3 , OOTH TARKINGTON was born in Indianapolis in 1869. tjwimsl Here he .spent most. of his tlme. As a lad of eleven, he began his friendship with James Whltcomb Riley, at that time his neighbor. Mr. Tarkington has acknowledged that the spirit of Riley has exercised over him a strong, if often un- consciously felt, influence all his life. Mr. Tarkington loved Riley and, whenever he could, would go to Riley's home. Booth Tark- ington was raised in the old family house on North Pennsylvania street and here he continued to make his home. He went first to Phillip's Exeter Academy, and later to Purdue University at Lafayette, Indiana, before he became a member of the Class of '93 at Princeton. His popularity and his good fellowship are still cherished memories on the campus. Whenever he came to the campus, the boys would cheer him until he sang his favorite song, Danny Deeverf' At Massua Hall, at the Princeton Club in New York, they have a poem dedicated to Mr. Tarkington in THE CARNATIQN -.sf 33 js.. memory of this song, and the way he would try to escape from singing it. He was elected to the Indiana State Legislature and sat for a time in that body. Here he accumulated, no doubt, material on politics which he afterwards put in literature. The subjects for most of his novels and plays were found in contemporary American life. The popular novel called Pen- rod is said to reproduce quite accurately some of the author's own boyish pranks. Quite recently his novel, Monsieur Beau- caire, was filmed and proved a great success. He is one of the most distinguished Hoosier writers and truly deserves a name given to him by a great critic, The Hero of Books. THE ATOM Q I-IE atom is one of the marvels of modern science, and 'Vg Q . . . . . . . flap consequently is a much discussed subject in the scientific Anil? V world. If you should ever happen to be present at a meeting of scientists, you will be sure to meet a group of men gathered together in' a corner of the room getting themselves tangled in one another's beards over the subject of the atom. If you should pick up a scientific journal and turn to that part which is littered with mathematical formulae and diagrams, you will in most cases find one article or another upon the consti- tution of the atom. And our conceptions of this constitution are constantly being amended. Q T To begin with, the atom is very, very small. Nothing is more important than for my readers to get that fact firmly planted in their minds. lt is not only so small as to be invisible, but if a thousand atoms were put together, they would still be invisible. We are accustomed to think of the point of a needle as rather small, but a million atoms could sit on it without discomfort. From these illustrations you can readily imagine what a minute thing the atom must be. . , ' - According to the atomic theory, the atom is not solid at all, but is composed of protons and electrons' with open spaces about them. Ordinarily one would think of steel, which, like everything else, is'--supposed be composedhof atoms, as a veryisolid sub- stance, but, when regarded as composed of atoms, it seems, in- deed, a very hollow substance. Should this' fact' become common gossip of lower New York, it would be a hard job to lease'tl'ie upper floors of those immense skyscrapers. ' V The atom is very much like a little solar system. The proton is in the middle, just as is the sun in the solar system. The proton is said to be a charge of positive electricity. Around the proton revolve the electrons, each in its orbit just as the other planets, each in its own path revolve around the sun. The electrons are said to be negative charges of electricity. .The simplest atom known is the hydrogen atom, which consists of one proton around which a single electron is revolving. These protons and electrons revolve at an immense rate of speed. Take any figure that you have in mind and add a' half a dozen zeros and thechances are that you will still be under-rating their speed. Quite recently there have been a number of articles upon the subject of changing one element into another by changing their atomic construction. 'Not long ago a professor in Europe was supposed alto have changed mercury into gold by the action of the intense heat of a mercury lamp upon mercury. It is not de- termined as to whether 'or not his experiment was a decided suc- cess. But if this should become a commonplace thing, you can imagine how the value of gold would decline. It would actually cause a momentary revolution. And then the alchemists of old would rejoice over the successful ending of their long quest. Another much talked of subject relating to the atom, is atomic energy. Much has been said about this subject, but with practically no material results. So it is no wonder that -43134139 THE CARNATION Connington used the harnessing of atomic energy as a feature of the plot in his late fictious novel entitled, Nordenholt's Mil- lions. lt is believed that the atom contains an indefinite amount of energy. The great problem is to harness this energy. lt can be concluded from the foregoing discussion that there is no limit to the number of amendments that will be added to the ideas of the constitution of the atom in the future. lt is only a matter of time. So we will have to wait patiently until something new happens. MICHAEL LEVIN. AMERICANIZATIGN 'W ERHAPS, to reaily know the value of being an Ameri- QSY can citizen one must be foreign born. To have known the oppression of a despotic government, to be perse- cuted for your views, and then to come to the land of the free, to fulfill your hopes and ideals. The things American-born boys and girls simply take for granted are a priceless gift to those who come from countries where education is given to a chosen few and public libraries are unknown. The Americanization system of the United States permits these foreigners to attain the equal privileges of a native-born citizen. There is no other country in the world that provides for this as does America. The Americans feel that the naturalized citizens are their perfect equal. Edgar Guest, in his character- istic way, expresses this sentiment of the people, as follows: l'le's taken out his papers, an' he's just like you and me. He's sworn to love the Stars and Stripes an' die for it, says he. An' he's done with dukes an' princes, an' he's done with kings an' queens, An' he's pledged himself to freedom, for he knows what free- dom means. He's bought himself a bit of ground, an', Lord, he's proud an' glad! Q For in the land he came from that is what he never had. Now his kids can beat his writin', an' they're readin' books, says he, That the children in his country never get a chance to see. He's taken out his papers, an' he's prouder than a king: lt means a lot to me, says he, just like the breath of spring, For a new life lies before usg we've got hope an' faith an' cheer, We can face the future bravely, an' our kids don't need to fear. I-le's taken out his papers, an' his step is light today, For a load is off his shoulders an' he treads an easier way: An' he'll tell you, if you ask him, so that you can understand, just what freedom means to people who have known some other land. A. L. THE CARNATION -eil 35 PERPETUAL MOTION ERPETUAL motion is, literally, a device or mechanism Exfglii capable of maintaining its own state of internal motion gihiygl forever, without depending upon a supply of energy from external sources. ln this sense, the heavenly bodies con- stitute a system which approximates very closely to perpetual motion, since their movements would probably continue forever if it were not for the dissipation of energy due to their slight tidal influences upon one another, and to the possible existence of some unrecognized resisting medium in space. The phrase per- petual motionn is not commonly used in this sense, however: for a perpetual motion is technically and almost universally under- stood to be a device or apparatus which is capable of performing an indefinite quantity of mechanical work, without absorbing an equivalent quantity of energy from external sources. Many centuries ago, when the search for such a device was begun, the problem of perpetual motion was one worthy of the attention of a philosopher. Before that there was nothing plainly unreasonable in the idea that work might be done by the mere concentration of machinery. lt had not been proved that energy is uncreatable and indestructible in the ordinary course of nature: even now that proof has only been given by induction from long observation of facts. Consequently, there are many people today who believe that perpetual motion is not impossible. Many fields of science have been searched in vain in an effort to dem- onstrate its practicability. The fallacy lies in the fact that most persons who have tried to invent a perpetual motion machine have been ignorant of the principles of physics. lf a perpetual motion machine is invented, it will be invented by a man who is thoroughly acquainted with all the principles of physics and has discovered a flaw in them. Be these things as they may, the field of perpetual motion offers a fascinating study to anyone who is the least bit inclined scientifically. JOSEPH Nl. CROSS. OUR TRAFFIC PROBLEM AST summer, l took a trip to New York, and the thing that impressed me most while l was there was not their far-heralded skyline, but rather the ease with which traffic moves. The principal aid to lack of congestion is the use of traffic towers every three or four blocks on all of the principal streets, including Fourth avenue, Fifth avenue and Broadway. ln each of the towers is a policeman who, by a manipulation of buttons, changes the north and south How of traffic into an east and west one. Three colors are used for the signals: One for Go, one for Stop and the other for Traffic Change, such as we have in some places in St. Louis. However, the outstand- ing fact of the New York system is that the chain of towers runs unbroken for fifty-five blocks. Then again, all towers work in unison, and, unlike St. Louis, drivers are not forced to stop every other block by a sign which is not in concord with the preceding one. Left turns are allowed in this ingenious system by placing a policeman on the street at each corner. No sound is heard there from angry drivers who are tooting their horns, because they know their turn will come in scheduled time and not when the traffic policeman at the corner decides to let them go. Why cannot something like this be done in St. Louis? Day by day the traffic problem is growing larger. New York, with ten times as much traffic as we have, handles it all much more easily. Cannot St. Louis profit by the New York system? FRED PERABO. F ' ,-:gf361Qr- THE CARNATION HOW WATER CAME TO BE r i A CHEMISTRY TALE OW Oxygen was a daughter plump and fair and much QP if-il beloved by both her kith and kin, because she was so ll-f 'MJ very democratic, yet of a family come of such high lineage that ever were they most careful with whom they moved and married. Her father was a man both useful but haughty and known, for his sterling qualities, Sir Silver was his name. The mother, Lady Sulfur, came from the Phombic family, and 'tis said this is the reason for her daughter's plumpness. And now their daughter's age had come to such that ladies think on marriage, and both the mother and the father deemed it best that they should give her up, although they each did like her most especially. if And thus it chanced that many suitors came to Woo the hand of Oxygen. And one most pressing of them all was Aluminum. He it was who had an especial affinity forher, but she refused each time he asked, deeming him untrue because he courted many and so seldom e'er was seen without a lady in his company. Father said he was afraid this suitor was too large. Indeed, he mused, lt would take three the size of Oxygen to make a wife to suit the bold knight, Aluminum. U i I And then there came quite frequently a man named Silicon, but he, her mother said, was of too large a family, for was there any place on earth wherein ,a Silica was not found? And more than that, it was well known this family did always hold their wives in close subjection and never let them out of sightg and so he finally did leave. A - - is Now came a prince who seemed, indeed, a worthy man-by name, Prince Gold. And he was welcomed and made much of and for awhile all signs did point that he would be the lucky man, but time did prove that proud and haughty was he to such a point which was beyond the liking of our democratic Oxygen, and so much humbled he did ride the road which from Sir Silver's castle leads away. ln after years did this prince marry Aqua Regia, a princess noble.. A ,, And after Prince Gold came yet another and another, and some of high birth and some of low birth, but each was either too active, too inert, too dense, too easily boiled, or too light in weight, for such a maid of roundness must needs have a man of size, and even some did quarrel with each other and once a knight of villainous nature named H2504 did strike and kill Sir Copper, a cousin of Sir Silver. And then right glad was Oxygen that she was wed to no such knight who seemed so brave and much beliked, but yet a bad man underneath. And so a year had passed and Oxygen was still no wife. But on a sudden came to town a nobleman, Sir Fire, whom 'twas said from the first' time all nations great and small had worshipped. All bright and red and gay, his friends did speak of him. And Oxygen did think he must be great and so did dress herself in her best robe and did await his visit. But, ah, me! what a change of heart did now take place when this Sir Fire did come in all his noble splendor. For there, instead of joy and love, Sir Fire no sooner had this maiden met, but that he grew and grew and spread and spread and became hotter and hotter until the very castle was in ,Hames and all in dire danger of the Angel Death. Wheun, lo! a king, HQ from up in the high heavens came along, charging for the burning home and sought the freightened Oxygen. And she, when she did see him, knew him to be the man for her, and, running to him to be saved, fell into his arms, and they became a drop of water, 15120, and then the flames did disappear. NORMA YERCER. T II E C A- R NA T I O N 37 A GLIIVIPSE INTO OUR GOLDEN WEST RRIVED the great day! Tearful good-byes and clamber- ing up and down the train stepsg a last lingering shaking of hands and the train started to roll along. We wended our way through the mass of baggage, excited fellow-travelers and smiling porters. As it was night, we scrambled into the queer box-like creations that were to be our haven of rest for the next four days. Morning came, and with that joyful feeling that usually accompanies a sunny morn- ing, I struggled out of the box. When I finally stood on the floor, somewhat unsteadily 'tis true, I looked about me with in- terest. It seemed so odd that so many people could be tucked away into nooks like so many puppies, and yet, in comparative comfort. The first stop of interest was Albuquerque. Around the sta- tion squatted the Indians, both men and women, selling their wares. Pottery, rugs, rings, everything they themselves had made. It was a pitiful sight, really. The dumb, sad expression on their faces reproaches one, as if they were being pushed out of their own territory, the land they and their ancestors had in- habited such a long time before white people ever dreamed of coming here. The next day was greatly looked forward to! We were to stop at the Grand Canyon of Arizona for the day! We lingered at EI Tovar only long enough to receive our meal ticket and then hurried out to the Canyon's edge. As soon as I had taken in the immensity and the extreme beauty of the Canyon I felt myself grow smaller and smaller, till I was sure I could fit into one ofthe miniature Mexican hats I had seen for sale in one of the curio shops. The Canyon is seventeen miles wide in its narrowest part and so deep that the Colorado River which flows at the bottom seems only three feet wide and is in reality three hundred feet wide! The Waves appear to be fairy ripples, but really are three to six feet high. Yes! the sight frightens one--not physical fright, but awe-inspiring thrill just causes one to tremble. Next day we arrived in Pasadena! It was all I had imagined it to be, numerous flowers, romantic palm trees hiding vine-cov- ered homes: orange trees, lemon trees, fig trees galore. Yes, it was the California of the dreams of many of the inhabitants of our United States. We hadn't stayed in Pasadena long when a very natural long- ing came over me to see the much talked about Los Angeles, so off we went and in about three-quarters of an hour we were stand- ing upon the streets of Los Angeles, looking about us for all the world like a pair of country bumpkins. Looking upon the thoroughfare of Los Angeles from a busy corner, it appears that the traffic system is summed up in the words: You go your way and I'lI go mine and may the best man get there first. We tried to cross the street together, but before I'd got half-way across I glanced back and saw mother dancing back and forth between two cars, the drivers of said cars taking it all as a matter of course in the days' experience. After we had finally reached the other side of the street and had made sure that we had all our bones and that they still were where they belonged, we proceeded to stroll down Main street. Large de- partment stores, picturesque theatres and beautiful cafeterias lined both sides. That afternoon we rode out to Hollywood. As we got off the street car, my heart felt just as if it had deserted me and then hurried back to its placeg palpitation, I believe you call it. Pola Negri was driving by! Our next trip was to Catalina Island. Those who didn't suc- cumb to the sickening appearance of waves jumping nervously .sf 38 jg.. THE CARNATION up and hitting you in the face, caught enchanting, rainbowy glimpses of the flying fish jumping happily in and out of the waves. Catalina Island is owned by Wrigley and has been since l9l 7, when he purchased it for three million dollars. The atmosphere of the island is one of supreme content and cozy neighborliness. The bathing in its clear, green waters is divine, just baby ripples like so many dimples break its smooth surface. The beautiful abalone shell comes from Catalina waters. Along the shore, huge rocks rise out of the water and on these rocks are families of seals, lazily sunning themselves and now and then they splash gayly in the water. There are also fish of all types as Perch, Catfish, Octopus, Leop and Shark dart around in Catalina waters. Came the day when we left our beloved Pasadena, and made our way to San Francisco. Frisco is cold, damp and rainy, though you deeply injure the dignity of an inhabitant of San Francisco by frankly expressing your opinions on the subject: they give the usual expression for their climate a romantic hoist and say it is but a heavy dew. When we saw Golden Gate I was disappointed! I hadn't ex- pected a golden gate studded with precious stones to rise out of the water, but I didn't even see any semblance of a gate. But after the guide had explained how the name originated, it all seemed quite simple. The harbor has two arms which almost meet, the mountains disappearing mistly into the clouds and the sun shines with especial red-goldiness, turning the water to flow- ing gold. After a few days of Frisco we left for Salt Lake City. ln my mind's eye I could see presumptuous looking men parading up and down the street and at their heels women tripping obe- diently and devotedly, but Salt Lake City is quite as civilized, interesting and comparatively beautiful as other cities of the same size. Of course, we visited the Marmon Temple. That night we left for the mysteries of Yellowstone Park. We were all piled into trucks and driven to the different camps. Starting from the west entrance we drove about one and one-half hours before seeing anything of interest, then suddenly we all gave exclamations of joy, for in the distance we saw smoke com- ing out of the ground. There are huge pools of this steaming water right in the ground. The water is a turquoise blue and the pool is deep, sometimes the combination gives a resemblance of some flower like a morning glory. The water seethes furi- ously as if something had made it angry, and this was its only way of giving vent to its emotion. The ground, everywhere, is gray. Old Faithful can only be expressed by exclamation marks. lt plays every 63 for is it 62 ?J minutes: it rises gradually till it is at its highest, which is l50 feet: ISO feet of boiling, frothy water coming out of Mother Earth's mysterious bosom. lt gives the ap- pearance of a glorious waterfall upside-down. At 6 o'clock one evening it played and the setting sun, as if in affectionate and admiring adieu, sent a clear rainbow over its frothy whiteness. The vision lasted for but 3 minutes, but I believe if it had lasted any longer our eyes and hearts would have hurt with the heavenly beauty of it. Finally we were on our homeward trip-but there was yet one stop to make-Colorado Springs. We went through the Garden of the Gods first and, truly, the name is not exaggerated. As soon as we entered the Garden through huge portals composed of gold-orange stone, I felt subdued. It is another Paradise on earth and it belongs to us. The stones all through this Garden are of an orange hue and portray some animal, Hgure or picture with barely any use of the imagination. Everything was so very beautiful, I felt as if I were treading on sacred ground! Nature could be seen everywhere tenderly moulding the soft, bright stone into picturesque objects. The same trip included a visit to the Cave of the Winds, Seven THE CARNATIQN -413913.- Falls and Manitou. Every place gives an idea of the mood Mother Nature must have been in when she shaped it. Cave of the Winds is gloomy, yet certainly magnificent: Seven Falls is soft and white like a sweet, young bride. When we arrived in St. Louis I came to earth with a sigh that came from the very regions of my heart. It seemed as if I had fallen out of a cloud of romance and adventure into the old prosaic routine. ' HERTHA BECK. IVIY EASTERN TRIP C, E started out on july 7th, bound for Washington, D. C. It was our first experience at touring, but we had five igtfffgifg weeks. It is impossible to tell all the thrilling experiences I had during the trip, but I will tell only the outstanding incidents of my trip through the East We pushed on after reaching Washington, D. C., with a leisure to see more, and finally ended our trip in Albany, N. Y. The State Capital there is said to be the most costly of any State Capital in the United States. I failed to see its beauty or its costliness. One had to look twice to believe this statement, but I found out that its interior couldn't well be judged by its exterior. It will pass in a pinch, but, frankly, I see nothing in it which would surpass our own State Capital. But, wait, I'm starting at the end of my trip. The first memorable thing I saw was the Washington Monu- ment at Washington, D. C., which is 550 feet high. It is a beauti- ful thing, and after riding to the top of it in an elevator and view- ing the Congressional Library, the White House, the State, War and Navy Buildings and The United States Capitol from my dizzy position, I decided to walk down! Alas, what folly! I counted 937 steps on the way down, and for two days afterward I was unable to move about agilely as previously. We next paid the mint a visit. Oh, what a sight! Millions of dollars in one, five, ten, one hundred and five hundred dollar bills right before one's eyes! From here we went to Arlington Cemetery, the National Cemetery. It is quite immense and very beautiful, especially the Rowan Memorial amphitheatre, dedicated to the Sailors and Soldiers of the World War. It is entirely of white marble and is built upon the Roman style, having marble benches for seats, and countless pillars for its walls. It is a huge structure and the voice echoes throughout its marble pillars. Just outside is the Unknown Soldier's Tomb, which brings memories of the bravery and supreme sacrifices of Our Boys. Of course, we couldn't miss seeing the Capitol, which of all the things I have ever seen or even imagined is the most beauti- ful! Its countless rooms, paintings, tapestries, statues, and its beautiful architecture and relics of olden days, enthrall and inspire one, who gazes speechless at its wonders. It would take volumes to tell of its many interesting and historical points, but that which I found most thrilling was the President's room. We left Washington next day and on our way we stopped at a farmhouse to inquire about a detour. The people were very kind and showed us a cabin which the Indians had built, a tree under which Indian Warriors were buried, and a Quaker church, built and attended by William Penn. This was something we had not anticipated. We drove on, now thinking of Indians and Quakers. While in Philadelphia we saw Independence Hall, where Articles of Confederation, the Constitution of the United States and the Declaration of Independence were framed and signed. Alas, we were too late for visiting hours and came away a bit disappointed at not having seen the interior of Independence Hall, but cheered by the thought of all we were to see in New York City. Ah hah! Our hopes were not shattered for the city that never sleeps, was a wondrous thing to behold, with its thirteen thousand taxicabs, its subway, its elevated, its eleven thousand policemen and its six million people. 1 J --.s3f4O THE OARNAQIQN First we took a ride in the subway under the Hudson River, and I was truly glad to again set my feet on stationary ground and to have the subway cease roaring in my ears. Then, taking a street car, we visited Battery Park and the Aquariums. These also proved fine and educational sights. On our way we saw the immigrants coming in from Ellis Island, some with all their worldly belongings wrapped up in plaid shawls and frightened, yet happy, expressions on their faces. From here we took a boat to Bedlow Island on which stands the glorious Statue of Liberty! What a tremendous and mighty thing it is! Its proportions are unimaginable and the sight of it is 'very impressive. What a significant and awe-inspiring thing it must be to the immigrants slowly drawing into port! But now comes the thing I enjoyed most, this was my trip to Chinatown, the Bowery, and the Ghetto. Never, never, will I forget it. We took a sight-seeing bus and arrived first in China- town. We inspected a Mission which, in the past, has been a meeting-place for the two Tong factions. It was a Chinese theatre and to those who gained the refuge of its interior, it meant safety from the opposing faction. But as soon as a member of one of the factions stepped forth from this theatre his life was in peril. This, however, did not last forever. One night the lights were extinguished and the Tong factions held the most bloody battle in their history. When the police arrived many Chinamen were dead, many dying, and others wounded. This ended the life of the theatre, and now it is a mission where the lost, the despondent, and the wretched may find solace in a comforting sermon. A cup of coffee and a piece of bread is given to them three times a day, and they also may sleep there for the night. After they have heard the sermon and eaten their meager supper, they remove their shoes, wrap them in their coats, and place their heads on such a pillow. We entered the Bowery next. What a wonderful and yet what a sad picture it presents. Narrow streets, so narrow that two automobiles can hardly pass each other, walled by tall grim tenement houses. Nine and ten months old babies crowding in the dirt of the sidewalk breathing in the germs of the street. Dirty, screeching children tormenting old, hungry men, fruit carts by the hundreds, squalid quarters, and wash hanging from every fire escape. The guide expressed the latter rather cleverly when he said: The flags of all nations are seen flying from the fire escapes. This proved a busy day for us, but we arose early the next morning and went out to Coney Island. The beach and board- walk there are beautiful and we walked for two hours along the boardwalk and even then did not see the end of it. We crossed the street and entered Lima Park, which is the real amusement park. I never shall forget Coney Island and Lima Park! They occupy blocks and blocks, and their amusements are unsurpassed. I simply reveled in the Ferris Wheel, the Virginia reel, the Chute the Chute and the side shows! We traveled on to Niagara Falls and I received another de- lightful surprise in the form of water. It is beautiful to behold and one marvels at it at first, but when we had heard its roar, seen its rainbows and its mist for four hours, I grew restless and amazed my parents fwho had seen it beforej by asking to go on. Perhaps I was too young to appreciate its wonderfulness, but at any rate when I arrived on this side of the Free Bridge after see- ing the interesting and historical things I had seen, I opened my arms wide as if to embrace the whole city of Ugood old St. Louie and exclaimed, Gee, it's good to be back! H VIRGINIA WEBER. THE CARNATION -.ggi 41 jg.. IIVIPRESSIONS GAINED ON A VACATION TOUR ll LLINOIS is a typical Mid-Western State. The agriculture Il gives it an air of placidity while the manufacturing shows it to be progressive. The many little towns one passes through on the way to lndiana have a peculiar quaintness that causes them to appear very attractive to the tourist. A drowsy quietness pervades the air in the afternoon. Occasionally a sun- bonneted woman beneath an umbrella passes down the street. Brazil, although not little or quaint, is an ideal lndiana town. lt is very progressive and very socially inclined. lts hotel and restaurants are up-to-date and well equipped. On Saturday night the town is alive with strolling people, as it seems to be the cus- tom of many villages to gather in the business sections of town on Saturday night. It seems as though the home of blames Whitcomb Riley, the beloved Hoosier poet, is the most appropriate and fitting monu- ment that there could be. It is a neat, clean-looking yellow frame house, with a white vinefcovered porch. In the rear of it there is a summer kitchen which is particularly old-fashioned in ap- pearance. There is a little green terrace in front of the house, which is shaded by tall elms that are set near the sidewalk. One can almost see the old poet among his native surroundings, so simply and homely do they impress one. The minute the State line between Ohio and lndiana is passed, one detects a certain difference. The people of Ohio seem more lively and there is more traffic along the highways. One of the most beautiful of the Ohio roads is the Dixie Highway. One of the most exhilarating feelings one can have is rushing along at a good speed with miles and milesiof white road stretching before. The farms of Ohio are few and far 'between because they are usually very large. Dayton and Cincinnati are very interesting cities. Dayton's chief pride is her' air fields, while Cincinnatfs is her zoo. A tour through Ohio alone would prove intensely interesting, but it is still more interesting to tour Illinois, lndiana and Ohio. l..UCll..l..E WALLACE. FLAT Rock ON THE Bic RIVER GUESS that quite a few pupils have spent vacations or week-ends at Flat Rock, but the rest may be interested to know something about it. ' Four weeks of vacation had passed before we decided to go to our cottage at Flat Rock. Of course, this decision was wel- comed by all, and after rushing to pack our things, we took the next train to Flat Rock. Our cottage is situated on one of the many hills at that place, and is but a short distance from the river. No matter where you look, you will see these great hills covered with tall, majestic trees. There are cedars, oaks, and walnuts swaying in the breeze and forming one of the many beautiful pictures of nature. After you have seen the trees, you will notice the thousands of little wild Howers, each having a different color, size and shape. Last, but not least, you will find a great number of flat rocks, and then you'll know how the land got its name. The river is an ideal spot for swimming and canoeingg that is, provided you're a good swimmer, for the river at Flat Rock is about I6-I8 feet deep. The place appears lovely to you in the day, but it is magnificent at sunset. The sun casts a reflection on the river which contains so many beautiful colors that it would be useless for me to name them. Standing on the bank of the river you cannot help but say: lsn't nature grand. The woods that surround our cottage are inhabitated by .all sorts of woodland creatures who enjoy twilight most of all. At one moment you will hear an owl call for its mate, then silence .iSI42lIgg... THE 0A1zNA1'10N reignsg then there will be an answer. Perhaps a frog will sing or a fox will howl, but when you learn that they are just calling for their mates and mean no harm you will enjoy hearing them. This is Flat Rock. FLORA FOX. OPOSSUM COLLEGE POSSUM COLLEGE! The name's enough! Oh, please, read my story, for Opossum College is an interesting school at Readsville, Missouri. The town boasts of two stores, a garage, church, and a school, besides Opossum College. The college is really just a school where reading and writing and arithmetic are taught to the tune of a hickory stick. My cousin and I spent an afternoon at the school during the past summer. The school is for children who live out in the real sticks where for miles you can see nothing but hills cov- ered with brush, and occasionally a log cabin or a frame home. Most of the children who go to Opossum College walk about three or four miles up and down hill and think nothing about it. I walked three miles to the school and thought l'd die. The path we took was through the woods, up and down hill, with many spiderwebs and bugs. On our way, my cousin and I met two boys going to a nearby creek for drinking water. After walking a little farther, all of a sudden we stepped into a clear- ing. There in the middle of a large cleared square was a small, but clean, schoolhouse, namely, Opossum College. Logs were piled in the neatest way for fires. A huge school bell, rusty with age, near the building, helped to give a business-like appearance. School was in progress, so we entered as quietly as possible and sat down near the back of the room, where a bench happened to be vacant. Immediately my eyes began to wander, as did those of the pupils at seeing visitors. Seven pupils, three boys and four girls, there were-the boys, barefoot and in overallsg the girls, barefoot and in gingham dresses, one with a pig-tail down her back. The teacher, a dear young girl with only an eighth grade country school education, conducted the lessons. The one-room schoolhouse was bare, but clean. Across the front of the room was a cheap-looking blackboard. A large desk, similar to those our own teachers use, and which seemed to be the young teachers' pride and joy, was the best and only piece of furniture, and stood in the middle of the front of the room. There were two rows of desks and oh, such desks! They were made of sugar tree wood and not even painted. Two children sat at a desk. The side walls each had a single window from which one could see nothing but trees. In the back of the room were a few nails, on which hung caps, and dinner pails. 'I Soon the two boys we had met came with the fresh acreqek water. Everybody drank out of the same long-handled dipper. My, but that water tasted good! The school teacher brought us the register, and, oh, how she smiled when I wrote, St. Louis, Missouri. I noted that I was her first visitor from a large town. lsn't Opossum College a contrast to our St. Louis schools? Aren't you glad you go to McKinley High rather than Opos- sum College? Still several great men went out into the world from this little backwoods school. HELEN OLIVER HOOK. K 2 ff I N' f ':' 'Qi' 'Ne JC lwfwtef fro.scHw.4nt1. IEDIVIFQUDIRIUXXILS THE GARNATION .si 43 jg... THE SCHOOL OR many years McKinley has stood as a tower in the world of education. Time after time classes have come to McKinley, entering upon a new stretch in their educa- tional journey to be trained in an atmosphere unequaled for its democracy and freedom. Year after year students have left McKinley, always to reflect credit upon themselves and their Alma Mater. For more than twenty years McKinley High has been filled with students who have ever measured up to that high standard left for them by those who instituted our school. She has been a leader in all she has entered. McKinley has produced men who are exceptionally successful in all courses of business and profession. lVlcKinley possesses a record of 'which the students of our institution can justly be proud. As McKinley students of today we are extremely fortunate to be able to look back in admiration upon the feats of former lVlcKinleyites. We are proud that we have a high standard to which we must rise. We are glad that we can possess many cups which our predeces- sors have left us. V ln fact, we frequent a building of which every part is a reminder of our graduates and the wonderful spirit they have left us. We have a glorious past. What shall our future be? Will the people who enter our halls in the future point with the same pride at our accomplishments and be inspired with the same spirit that we have been? Shall we live up to that high standard left for us or shall we be the first who have ever let the banner of McKinley be lowered in the sight of ourselves and the other schools? Shall we place personal pride and prejudice above the honor and prestige of our school? Let us, the present students of McKinley, earnestly strive to establish a record enviable to Mcliinleyites past and future, one that shall be a strong incentive for those who are to carry the banner of McKinley. whether it be as a junior or a senior high school. VOTING in I cKlNLEY is a human foundry. .Plastic and unformed characters enter, these are forged into shape by participa- tion in school activitiesg they leave with definitely shaped habits. The finished product is generally very good. The power of voting, which all of us now hold, is a very im- portant phase of our school activities, for this is the only means by which many of us share in the school government, so like that of St. Louis, with its Mayor, its Board of Aldermen or Student Council, and its great voting public, the Student Body. However, comparatively few of us are Student Council Repre- sentatives. Nevertheless, this important function is somewhat maltreated. As a general rule, we do not regard elections seriously enough. Instead of considering, previous to election time, the candidates and their qualifications, we are prone to vote for someone be- cause of such trivial facts as that he possesses a keen sense of humor, or, perhaps, our friendshipg whereas we should vote for him only if, after carefully considering his fitness for the office, we decide that he is the most capable of those running. It has been pointed out that our government resembles that of St. Louis, though, of course, on a much smaller scale. There- fore, it is not unlikely that the spirit in which we approach the elections we hold at McKinley will have much influence in deter- mining the manner in which we shall vote as citizens of St. Louis, if, in truth, we vote at all. More thought beforehand about elec- tions would be beneficial now and hereafter, for a valuable habit would thereby be formed. High school pupils are the select citizens of the future. Let us be worthy of the great expenditure made by our parents and their friends to make us Ht for govern- ing our city, perhaps our State, or even our country. ...gy 44 jg.- THE CARNATION TEAM WORK ug HEN a person mentions the phrase, team work, one im- mediately thinks of the work of an athletic team. This, however, is not the only thing to which that phrase might apply. Team work can and ought to be found in every phase of life, whether it be the life of a beggar, a millionaire, or a pupil. The team work of a pupil is what we should be interested in. First, there is the team work in each class. To go day in and day out, doing just what you are told and no more, reciting just when you are called on, is not getting the most out of the sub- ject. Co-operate with your fellow classmates, express your opinion on different topics. It may not be fight, but you will profit by your mistake. Then, there is the team Work of the school at large, and here is the place to bring up the traffic laws. These laws were made for your good, not for the teacher's and principals good. Co-operate with the rest in obeying these laws and regulations. There's also team work to be done during auditorium ses- sions. Speakers are procured because they will help you, but sometimes our attention is none too good. If you lack team work, you can make no headway. Work together for your own good and the good of the school. NEWVJUNIORS! Y this time no doubt you have gotten over your first frights Wil and thrills and have become a full-fledged citizen. The word citizen might amuse you, for you have been in the habit of connecting it to the inhabitants of a city or village and not a school, but let us remind you that, after all, McKinley is a small village and her pupils are her citizens. Gnly the build- ing represents a school, the government is like that of St. Louis or any other city. We have a Mayor and a Student Councilg we make our own laws and live up to them. What more could a city do? You may not be interested at first, but sooner or later you will be caught by the spirit and then is the time when you will enjoy the hustling and bustling of lVlcKinleyville. When you are acquainted with our clubs, sports, and govern- ment, you will get real pleasure out of school, and at the end of your course, whether it be 2 or 4 years, you will say, How I hate to leave lVlcKinleyville. I Get acquainted right away, learn about McKinley, and enjoy every day of school. We will all help you, for in your hands lies the future of lVlcKinleyville. INDIFFERENCE GREAT trouble with high school pupils is not lack of Q mental ability and intelligence. It is the presence of a happy-go-lucky attitude which is more harmful than one at first thought might suppose. This state of mind is, in many cases, directly or indirectly the cause of failure to make good grades, and poor support of school institutions. That its effect on grades is detrimental is readily seen. ln- difference causes one to pay poor attention in classrooms and to do little outside preparation. All of us know that home- work is essential to success in any of the courses McKinley offers, except such subjects as Manual Training and Household Arts. As for good attention in class, this story will illustrate my point. A former teacher here gave a pupil a new book at the beginning of the term, and, at the end, received it with no signs of usage. He was a G pupil. When he was asked how it was possible to make good grades without doing any outside preparation, he replied that he had paid close attention to everything that oc- curred in class. lido not wish to advocate that We do no home- THE CARNATION --.gf 45 jg,-r work, but this incident shows what close attention to recitations will accomplish. Absence and tardiness are also often caused by this poor spirit, and these have the effect of lowering one's grades and of forming a very harmful habit. A high school pupil is going to get but a limited benefit from his schooling if he is a cut-and-dried sort of student, doing what is required and no more. ln following this path of least resist- ance, one can never hope to become a member of the Student Council of one of the six standing committees, or to join a school club. However, he who serves his school in any of these ways serves himself. As a member of the Student Council he receives valuable training in leadership, public speaking, and Parlia- mentary Law. The benefits of clubs cannot be overestimated. All of them give training in Parliamentary Law, as well as in debating and speaking, acting, knowledge of a foreign language, or engineering, depending upon the nature of the club. The meetings are very interesting. If you're one of these dull, listless people, shake off this spirit of indifferenceg get into the life of the schoolg obtain your money's worth for your time and trouble by becoming a real, active, bustling lVlcKinleyite. PEP WEE'K j L. vi' HO said McKinley had lost her pep? Who said lVlcKin- ley wasn't interested in athletics? Who said McKinley f..'9r:f4aX couldn't get a crowd to football games? People said these things, but lVlcKinley has shown them their mistake. lVlc- Kinley realized that she was rapidly losing her position in athletics and decided to regain some of the old-time spiritand vigor con- cealed in the heart of every true lVlcKinleyite. Working upon the correct assumption that the right spirit was at McKinley but simply hidden, McKinley launched a three-day campaign known as Pep Week. A pep committee was appointed in the Student Council and a definite program outlined for the entire three days. Plans were made: the student body co-operated: planstwere com- pleted. A lVlcKinley edition of The Crimson, a football rally, tag day, color day, flag raising, and the thermometer tosshow the rise in McKinley pep were all features of this campaign. I As a result of these efforts on the part of lVlcKinleyites, seven hundred rooters' were present at the opening football game to see lVlcKinley battle the' Central High champions to a six to six tie. Once again' the loyal spirit of McKinley has come to the surface to show itself in true McKinley style. The old lVlcKinley pep, talked of in past terms, is at McKinley for a long season. It has come to stay. CLUBS T E' have at lVlcKinley a great variety of clubs such as 'the Literary Clubs, Musical Clubs, Foreign Language Clubs, Athletic Clubs, scientific Clubs, and Art Clubs. I-Iow many of you belong to at least one of these clubs? If you don't, you are letting a golden opportunity pass by unnoticed. You are losing half of the pleasure McKinley offers toyou. And why? It is just because you think these clubs are dry and without pep. The clubs are a part of the school, as important to the pupils as a certain subject. They are its social side and furnish us with knowledge, not acquired from books, but from real experience. They help you with your studies, they teach you true sportsman- shipg they entertain you with programs, not filled with dry, tiring talks, but interesting topics taken from various subjects, yet you are Willing to 'pass them by. They have parties and social programs, which no one could help but enjoy, and yet some say the clubs are tiring. These some are the ones who don't belong to any club and don't know. join a club uponfthe word of a friend, and within a few weeks you'll joinimore 'ir clubs upon your own word. 46 lgen- THE CARNATION MCKINLEY co-OPERATION HE McKinley Student Council has taken on new life. Not J for many years has there been such enthusiasm displayed or has there been such a desire to do things. The aim of every person in the Council this term has been to work to- gether in an effort to accomplish things which have hitherto been deemed impossible. It may be truly said that McKinley's gov- ernment during the past term has been a representative body working eagerly for the betterment of the school. The Student Council at McKinley has been really doing things. The student body is willing: it always has been willing to work, but has lacked leadership on the part of the Council. During the past term that necessary leadership has shown itself with great effect. What can be the cause of this new enthusiasm in lVlcKinley's government? Are the members of the present Council more capable than those of previous Councils? No, it is not that the present government possesses any outstanding genius who makes it successful. It is simply that the Student Council of l924 has learned to co-operate. lts members have found that individual effort in any undertaking is useless. They have learned to fail together and succeed together. They know that without co-oper- ation confusion results. C McKinley can well afford to congratulate herself on this new McKinley spirit of effective co-operation. MCKINLEY HOSPITALITY nk I cKlNLEY extends a cordial welcome to the stranger who may enter her gates. The McKinley students pride themselves in the fact that they are unusually friendly to the new pupil and to other strangers who come to McKinley. Pupils from other schools entering McKinley find a warm wel- come awaiting them the minute they enter lVIcKinley's door. New Juniors find it easy to get along with such a friendly group of upper classmen as their guides. Outside speakers and other visitors are never disappointed in the welcome given them and the courtesy shown at McKinley. There is a McKinley spirit of hospitality which dwells in each classroom, which roams about every hall. This spirit is found in the large number of societies which all extend to the stranger a welcome which makes him glad to be in McKinley. The school is filled with an atmosphere of homelike friendliness. All are welcome. There are no snobs in McKinley. Jia' , , 1 1 F f p. X 4. - Q' S 5 I V T I -j causes Business .

It swept and stung my reddened cheek, And blew my loosened cape, It tore around the green fir trees, And angered the foaming lake. The white-capped waves came rushing in And wet the soft, white sand,- Eaeh moment darker grew the sky, And mist spread o'er the land. The tall fir trees did bend and sway With a loud, melodious sou-nd, While the thick, green needles of the trees Came rustling to the ground, Then softer, softer blew the wind As it had been before,- And I with joy did travel back To the old log cabin door.

THE CARNATION MCKINLEY CHAPTER OF NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY THE TORCH Albert Mueller Amy Lu Wiggin Edward Deffaa Fred Perabo Harry Bode Vilma Hennings Elaine Debus Pauline Kinnin Orville Goerger Minnie Solomon Morris Swadesh Louise Schaller .f 1,2 H- HE above are the members of the McKinley Chapter of iZ:55j1'wSp the National Honor Society from the Class of january, l925. These students were selected because of their good high school record in scholarship, leadership, character and service Every school has literary societies, dramatic clubs, and musical organizations to help develop the talent of its students. Each of these organizations has its pin or badge, and the members usually receive public recognition for their work. ln this way they Very often assist in helping students gain a truer and better perspective of life-they enable them to know how to cope with the later problems that arise. Of course, there is the danger that students will neglect their school duties, making their outside activities paramount. This is wrong and it was because of the fact that scholarship should be recognized and emphasized that many high schools and other secondary schools began organizing honor societies as early as I776. In some cases individual schools organized honor societies while in other cases comparatively small groups of schools organ- ized having unity of purpose regarding the standard of scholar- ship and method of recognition. This was the beginning of the honor society and paved the way for the National Honor Society. When many local societies sprang up, each independent of the other, yet all working toward a common goal, there was a decided need for a strong organiza- tion, and what could be stronger than a National Honor Society receiving the support of all schools believing in such a society? It was this long-felt need from all sections that brought into existence the National Honor Society. However, in drawing up the constitution, the committee had to overcome a serious diffi- culty. lt seemed that scholarship alone was too narrow a basis, and yet there was the danger that scholarship would not receive the proper recognition. It was only after considerable discussion that it was decided that character, leadership and service as well as scholarship be used as a basis for admission into the Society. The records of the first and second years of study are counted as well as that of the third and three-fourths majority of the Faculty Council is required for the election of each member, so it is evident that it is the record from the first day of high school to the day of the election that determines the election of the members. Not more than i521 of the class may be chosen, so that is an added incentive. The meaning of service, leadership and character, as defined by the McKinley Chapter is given before the Faculty Committee. Service is interpreted as a willingness to render cheerfully any service to the school when called upon: to show a desire to take part in the student government, and to maintain a loyal school attitude. 1 Leadership is shown by successfully holding school offices, and other such positions of responsibility: by showing initiative in promoting school activitiesg and, by contributing ideas that might be applied to the civic life of the school. Character, the most difficult of all to define, can be shown by demonstrating an honest spirit in class workg by meeting obliga- fContinued on Page 901 . . -fx 5g5g.',--.Q. . K f . . .k.,., X .

THE OLYMPIC GAMES fp, NCE again a McK1nley1te has accomplished a feat w ic Qysqlyx time it is Dan Kinsey a former McKinley student who reflects glory upon himself and his alma mater. This its Q1 ' ' ' ' . X ' , scored first place in the 1 10 meter high hurdles as a member of the United States Olympic Team for 1924. TRACK THE CARNATION Dan Kinsey entered McKinley High in May, l9l8. He dis- tinguished himself in all branches of athletics, being one of the few five letter men McKinley has produced. Dan was able to earn his letter in all the major sports offered at McKinley. As half back on the Crimson football eleven he was known and feared by all opponents. In baseball, tennis and basketball he won fame in high school athletic circles. Especially in track was Dan able to gain glory for McKinley. Under the coaching of Mr. Castleman, Kinsey has developed and advanced until last july he earned the title of The WorId's Greatest Hurdlerf' Kinsey is at the present time a student in the University of Illinois, where he went upon leaving McKinley. Dan is already a ranking athlete at Illinois, showing well in all branches of athletics. Running under the Stars and Stripes, matched against the world's leading hurdlers, Kinsey scored a victory for the United States, for the University of Illinois, for McKinley High and for himself. Two other former McKinley athletes earned the privilege of representing the United States in France last summerg a record of which any school may justly be proud. These two McKinIeyites are Frank Johnson and Loren Murchison. Frank, also a student of Illinois, ran with Kinsey in the l I0 meter high hurdles. He won his lirst preliminary heat only to be nosed out in the semi- final, a very creditable showing, indeed. Loren Murchison, the other man, is Well known to all readers of the sport page. He has established many indoor sprint records which are envied by many competitors. Loren was a member of the United States 220-meter relay team which not only scored first, but also estab- lished a new world record. As accomplishments of former McKinIeyites are acknowl- edged by the world, so often do we, the present students of McKinley, receive a thrill that causes us to swell up with pride and to be justly proud that we are attending McKinley.

Castleman X S usual, Coach Castleman put a winning track team in the field-a team that showed the ability to come from behind and win. McKinley proved exceptionally strong in the midget department, which augurs well for the future Crimson teams. The juniors also made an excellent showing with such stars as Hill, Deffaa, Kulla, Jarrett and Readmon. The senior athletes were fewer in number, but Frederic, Edwards, and Wise gave satisfying accounts of themselves. McKinley opened the season in an auspicious manner by walloping Webster Groves, 84-5 I. Yeatman was the next school to fall before the Crimson, the Northerners being defeated, l43M-I UM. Soldan followed and was handed the short end of a I37-l I6 score. Principia defeated McKinley, l3l-84. At the Mississippi Valley track meet in which 27 schools were entered, McKinley scored 5 points. Lake Forest won the imeet with a total of 45 points. HIGH SCHOOL TRACK AND FIELD MEET . After many postponements, due to inclement weather, the annual public high school track and field meet was held at Francis Field, and when the smoke of battle had cleared away, McKinley was found to have emerged victorious. The meet was the closest, hardest fought, and most interesting in years, and A743-T THE CARNATIQN not until the final event had been run off was McKinley adjudged the victor. The final score was as follows: McKinley, 93 2X3 Soldan, 90 Cleveland, 84 IX6 Yeatman, 5 6 5 f 6 Ben Blewett, 3 U2 Too much credit cannot be given to Coach Castleman and his boys, for although Soldan and Cleveland both placed more men in the preliminariesiand were favored to win, the fighting McKinley spirit prevailed. The Crimson tracksters, however, were forced to break five records to win. The new record holders are: Bohr, in midget 75 yard low hurdles, Peckman, in the midget broad jump, and the midget fifty, Kulla, in the junior low hurdles, and Coil, in the junior pole vault. Jarrett shattered the junior shot put record in the preliminaries, but Levy of Soldan established a new one in the finals. Peckman tied the midget 50-yard dash record. TENNIS HE McKinley tennis team, composed of Collins, Grimm, ygifaijjl Weber, Lieber and Paust, proved themselves to be true McKinley athletes throughout the tournament. The McKinley spirit of courtesy and fair play dominated, and although not extremely successful in the number of matches won, the lVlcKinley netsters proved themselves worthy bearers of lVlcKin- ley's banner. Zach Collins, a veteran of last year, played a fine brand of tennis, only to be checked by the stiff competition offered by the other schools. Herbert Grimm, a new man on lVlcKinley's team, proved a worry to his opponents by his very steady place- ment game. Carl Weber, also playing his first interscholastic tennis, was able to give the l..eague's best a run for their money. The doubles team, composed of Lieber and Paust, made a credit- able showing of which McKinley is proud. McKinley met'Yeatman to begin the season, and after a series of hard fought matches returned on the short end of the score in every case. Yeatman, displaying surprising power, espe- cially in their first man, Norton, served notice right then that they were competitors. The McKinley stars refused to be beaten without first exerting every power possible to win, and it was only after that ever-present do or die spirit had shown itself that our boys good naturedly accepted defeat. The lVlcKinley's next foe was her west end rival, Soldan. Weber, lVlcKinley's third man, was able to hand Grollneck of Soldan a trimming. Joe Smith of Soldan, last year's champion, defeated Collins, 6-3 and 9-7. Henker, Soldan's second man, beat Grimm, while Soldan's doubles team trimmed Lieber and Paust. The final match was played against our neighbor school, Cleveland. Here Collins showed form in defeating Prosser of Cleveland, 6-3, 7-9 and 6-l. The fast drive and speedy back hand which Collins displayed proved too much for the Cleve- landite. Grimm followed suit by beating Henkel. Weber did not fare so well, however, succumbing to the attack of his oppon- ent. The doubles team, Lieber and Paust, were defeated by Hankart and Brenner.

The papers gave Central an overwhelm- ing victory in predicting the result. Central was confident, still jubilant over their l923 victory. The Crimson eleven, however, took an entirely different view of the matter. Every rrran was determined to avenge last year's defeat and fight as he had never fought before. The final score, six to six, does not signify the superiority of the Crimson warriors, which was again and again displayed throughout the battle. At the opening whistle the McKinley stands were filled with seven hundred lVlcKinleyites, the largest number from McKinley in many years. The Red and Black team, although playing a good brand of football, did not display the class the Crimson did. Central was kept on the defensive throughout the game, and except for a score and a last quarter rally, did not threaten the Crimson goal. The scores for both teams came in the third quarter. McKinley scored on a pass from Bodge to Deffaa while Central was able to complete a long pass which netted its only score. 'Both teams failed to kick goal. lVlcKinley's line showed plenty of power in repulsing the speedy Central backfield, time after time. The Crimson backfield, aided by splendid inter- ference, repeatedly tore through the Central line for long gains. The unusual gaining of Frank Willmarth, Crimson ace, was a feature of the game, until he was removed shortly before the half time, suffering a wrenched ankle. The McKinley team worked as a well-oiled machine in turning back the charges of Mike Walker. lVlcKinleyf6J Central f6fl Antrobius ..... .... L eft end .... .......

SOLDAN ln the second High School League encounter, McKinley was crushed by the strong Soldan eleven. Soldan, displaying one of the best teams seen in the High School Circuit for many sea- sons, was able to pile up a total of forty-one points during the game. The heavy but speedy back repeatedly broke loose for long gains, while the Soldan line withstood the Crimson assault. Coach Cook, possessing a great variety of reserve strength, gave many of his substitutes a chance. The Crimson backfield was effective at times, but unfortunate fumbles spoiled any chance for scoring. McKinley, although badly beaten, fought until the final whistle. Again a large McKinley crowd witnessed the game and showed true loyalty in spite of defeat. Soldan played a clean, fast game and deserves credit for her victory.

YEATMAN McKinley met Yeatman in her third league game at Francis Field, on the afternoon of Saturday, November Sth. The field was in a poor condition for the fast McKinley backfield, as it was muddy with water standing in some places. Had the field been dry the result would have surely been a victory for McKin- ley. The tie score of 0-0 was the final result, although the Crimson had outplayed their rivals throughout the game. Yeatman showed pep and spirit in their attempts, but were unable to advance against the strong McKinley line. Only once during the entire fray was McKinley on the defensive. This dur- ing the last period when the ball was advanced to the McKinley l2-yard line-there the Crimson line braced and held the Blue and Cold for downs. The slippery field made end runs and forward passing difficult. Line plunges were the chief mode of offense. The playing of Mess, Deffaa and Freeman featured McKinley's attack. Broe's punts were a great asset to McKinley, gaining yardage on each attempt. Early in the game Mess, McKinley full back intercepted a pass and had advanced to Yeatman's I5-yard line, only to be called back and penalized for the holding of an interferer. Mc- Kinley playing an offensive game, repeatedly gained their yard- age, only to be checked by an inopportune fumble.

CLEVELAND McKinley entered the Cleveland contest determined to prove to her rivals that she was still the same old fighting McKinley that she has always been. Every Crimson warrior was eager to finish the l924 football season with a showing of which anyone might be proud. The team knew that the Cleveland game would probably be the last game in which the William McKinley High School would ever participate and were determined to make that game truly representative of McKinley spirit. The desired end was accomplished. Not only did McKinley fight, but they actually outplayed the strong Cleveland team, which had been doped to beat her by a large score. The final score of 6-0 in favor of Cleveland was the result of a lucky break for Cleveland and a tough break for McKinley. The school was represented by a large number of really enthusiastic rooters, who cheered their favorites with many McKinley cheers, During the first half of the game Cleveland kept the Crimson team on the defensive, but were unable to score. A strong wind made punting against it difficult: however, Broe showed well in making several long punts against the wind. The second half of the game found McKinley taking the offensive, keeping their south side rivals on the defensive. The end runs of Freeman featured for McKinley while Musgrove starred for Cleveland. During the third quarter a McKinley score seemed inevitable, after ,Freeman had scooped up a fumble and had carried the ball to the Cleveland 20-yard line. A series of line plunges by Mess and Deffaa made it first clown for McKinley, only to lose the ball on an intercepted pass. Again in the last quarter McKinley threatened, but lacked the final punch to put over a score. Cleve- lancl's lucky score came in the last few minutes of play, on a pass from Haynes to Musgrove. The ball apparently had been knocked to the ground, but Musgrove managed to lodge the ball between his knees and dashed over the line unmolested, the Crimson boys thinking the ball grounded. McKinley would have been glad to win, but, nevertheless, she is proud of the team that represented her in the last game of l924. THE OARNATIQN ---2581 13 I, Bob J'avre H'. Q 1.

There is a captain for both the Senior and the junior teams, who helps coach her team and who arouses enthusiasm and inter- est in the games. BALL Both Senior and Junior teams are divided into sides made up of nine girls each. The winners of the games between these sides are matched in a final game, the victor of which game becomes champion of the day. There are many skilled players on the team who have be- longed to municipal playground volley ball teamsg several of whom belong to the team holding the city championship for 1924. After the practice games of the term have been concluded, the girls hope to give a spread for all volley ball players. All girls interested in volley ball and wishing to become members of the team are required to pass an examination on the rules of the game before being admitted to the team. It is not surprising that there are so many girl lVlcKinleyites who belong to the team, since volley ball, besides being an interesting diversion, has a practical value, for it develops accuracy, a sure eye and speed. 84 134- T I1 E C A R N A T I O N GIRLS' BAS President. . . ......

The plan is as follows: The girls have organized into one group known as Girls Basket- ball, which in turn is divided into two groups, consisting of girls who are placed according to their respective terms. 'The girls in the second term, fourth, sixth, or eighth terms are coached by Miss Runge and meet on Wednesdaysg those in the first, third, fifth and seventh terms are coached by Miss Neibert and meet on Thursdays. Each of the term groups have elected a captain who helps each team, encourages attendance, and arouses enthu- siasm and interest in those girls who have chosen her as their leader. A first and second team for each term will be chosen by the coaches. The first team of each term will meet the first team of every other term in the final games. If practicable, the win- ning team will be determined by accounting as victor that term team which wins the greatest number of games. This is the first time that anything like this has been tried, and every girl is working hard to make her team the champion for this term. KETBALL To the members of the basketball teams points are given for attendance, faithfulness and skill. Fifty C501 points are given to every girl who makes the first teamg forty C401 points to every girl who makes the second team, and thirty C305 points to every girl who attends regularly and works faithfully but who does not make either the first or second team. Any girls making fifty points will receive a basketball emblem at the close of the term. These fifty f50I points in basketball may be used by any girl working for an Athletic M as fostered by the G. A. M. this year. In this connection let us say that the basketball girls are co- operating with the G. A. M. Every girl who plays basketball automatically becomes a member of this club and thereby helps to advance the standards as set by this new and splendid organi- zation, the G. A. M. Some of the basketball girls have belonged to the baseball team, some to the volley ball team, and still others participate in the tennis tournament, with the desire to gain enough points to receive one of the first Athletic Ms to be pre- sented to girls at McKinley. And so it is real girls with a genuine interest in basket- ball that you will meet any Wednesday or Thursday afternoon at 2:45 in the big gymnasium. There are about forty girls who regularly report on Wednesdays and the same number who attend Thursday practice. Every player is perfecting her game under the guidance and help of her coach. Many excellent play- ers have been found among those girls who have played for the first time ,this term. We are sure that if the girls who know nothing of this excellent sport will witness some of the final games, they will Want to become members of the Girls' Basketball next term. A spread will be given for all girl basketball players at the'end of the term. THE CARNATION QSBE l W I- BASKETBALL ...gy se. 13...

V. .Helen Melloh The Girls' Tennis Club was organized early this term and nineteen. girls responded to the call for players. After the girls had organized, a schedule was drawn up for the fall tournament. There were three pairs and thirteen byes. The three pairs played off their games quickly, Hertha Beck, Evelyn Anglebeck and Claire Weiler coming out victorious. After a few had played their second round there came a siege of bad weather, lasting so long that the finish of the tournament seemed doubtful. Aft- er the third round the tournament si ft e d down to the semi- finals, with E v e l y n Anglebeck a new devotee of the sport, and Marjorie Omsley playing one m a t c h , and Marian Wiggin and Elise Mardorf playing the other. Elise Mardorf was the champion of the - spring tournament. In the first match Marjorie Omsley won two out of three sets from Evelyn Angle- beck with the score of 6-2, 4-6, 6-3. Both played very well, and although Evelyn excelled in swiftness, Marjorie won by her steady playing and by her readiness to receive balls. The two sets between Marian Wiggin and Elise Mardorf proved very exciting, both players playing their best. The first set was won by Marian Wiggin with a score of 6-2. The finish of the second found her again victor with a score of 6-3. Marian won by her low and swift serving, although Elise, too, played very swift and accurate games. r After a delay of several days, the finals were played, Marian Wiggin winning from Marjorie Omsley with a score of 6-2, 6-3. This was perhaps the best game of the sea- son. Marian won by her smooth, swift and low serving. It must be said that this year's tournament proved very interest- ing and ended Very - T successfully.

GIRL ATI-ILETES OF MCKINLEY Motto: One for all and all for one Colors: Blue and White Moderator .................. . . .Miss Watt Treasurer .................. .Amy Lu, Wiggin . There are more athletic teams for girls at McKinley this year than ever before, and now, to top it all, there is an organization which includes all manner of athletic diversion. This is the club called The Girl Athletes of McKinley, which has certainly lived up to its name and has had more than a successful term. There have been hikes, swimming parties, skating parties, and still more hikes. Although no system for the awarding of points toward the winning of an athletic M has as yet-been devised, never- theless credit is given for membership and good attendance on either the basketball, baseball, tennis, or volley ball team. Every mile that a member hikes, swims, skates, or cycles, goes to her credit. To arouse enthusiasm and to forward the McKinley spirit, credit is given for attending football games. Though many girl Mcliinleyites have joined the organiza- tion, the members ask that every girl who likes athletics attend the meeting and join the G. A. M.

When the majority of the students of a high school look for- ward to the National Honor Society as their goal, it is bound to have an influence for good over the school as a whole. Many Principals of schools who have watched the growth of honor so- cieties from the beginning say that the advantages are numerous. There is more enthusiasm among both parents and students and a greater number of really, serious pupils in the school. With the desire to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimu- late a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership and to encourage the development of character, McKinley High School obtained a charter from the National Honor Society and formed a chapter to this society in November, l922. It was a big step toward better citizenship in our school and it is very apparent that we have been amply rewarded. PAULINE KINNINI , W , . it Q ' '.

R-I idea of the necessity of co-operation between the home and the school is by no means newg it has always I-21515 been more or less clearly apprehended and the associa- tion designed to accomplish this desirable end, in one of the most important and significant organizations in the country today, the Parent-Teacher Association, which has branches in every State of the Union, not necessarily bearing that name, nor always re- lated to the National Association, but formed to bring into closer relations the home and the school, that parent and teacher may co-operate intelligently in the education of the child. Another one of the aims of the Parent-Teacher organiza- tion is to surround the childhood of the whole world with that loving, wise care in the impressionable years of life, that will develop good citizens, instead of law breakers and criminals: and last, but not least, to carry mother love and thought into all that concerns or touches childhood in the school. Parents vote for the laws which make education compulsory, they pay the taxes which make the schools possible, and through the children, which they bring into the world, supply the raw materials upon which the processes of education may work. Parental understanding of the child's difficulties, and the teachers' efforts to overcome them, make it a well-known fact that school officials welcome any contact that can be achieved between themselves and the parents. The Parent-Teacher Asso- ciation finds its proper setting wherever there are children and friends of children-as teachers and parents. It is, therefore, an organization as obvious and natural as school itself. . Parents co-operating with the teachers contribute in large measure to the efficiency of our schools. Parent-Teacher Associations establish the habit, among the parents, of coming to school once a month, not merely when there is some trouble. The home environment of the child is made known to the teacher and thus a great deal is learned about the individual child, which otherwise he would not know. Someone has said that every mother should belong to at least one club. It keeps her in touch with events-keeps her from becoming rusty during her years of home devotion, and if a mother has children in school, what better selection of club, can she make than that of a Parent-Teacher Association? Children respect parents endowed with the wisdom and knowledge necessary to cope with present-day problems and con- ditions, and they have a better school spirit when they know that parents and teachers are meeting together monthly in an en- deavor to aid each other, they come to look upon the organization as having been founded for the sole purpose of their well being. The wise parent endeavors to keep a few yards ahead of son or daughter and a few hours a month are none too many to devote to work of this kind. Let no father or mother plead lack of time as an excuse for not taking an interest in the child's school work. Why should teachers care so much if parents care so little? The future trend of a child's life is often determined by his first year at I-Iigh School. Failure at this time often results in dis- couragement, and most of these failures could be prevented if parents would take an interest in the problems that confront the child at this time.

CRIMSON MEANS TO THE SCI-IO0L VER since McKinley began its career as a high school of St. Louis, it has shown itself to be a pioneer in advancing new ideas and activities into the realms of the high. school. The establishment of our weekly paper, The Crimson, was one of the earliest and most important things introduced by McKinley. The Crimson is of value to the school in many ways. Pos- tion to the whole school, and it thereby helps to promote the interest of all students in the various activities going on about them. By reading the Crimson, pupils may keep themselves con- stantly informed of the progress made by lVIcKinley in athletics, debating, literary activities, and other pursuits. They may keep in touch with the accomplishments of all the societies at McKinley, and in' that way learn to appreciate all the advantages offered them by the school. A very fine feature of the Crimson is the weekly letter writ- ten by lVlr. Miller to the students. These letters, pertaining as they do to conditions and circumstances concerning all at Mc- Kinley, are an effective means of putting before the student body the questions and difficulties that arise daily. Being written, they are more intimate with the student than talks in the auditorium can be. The educational importance of the Crimson is outstanding. ln the paper, pupils who like to write, have an outlet for their efforts, and an opportunity to Hnd out what they can do along that line. The regular space given to poetry and limericks helps to encourage those who have ability to compose verse. In this connection, may be brought out the democracy of the Crimson. It is an undertaking carried on by the pupils and headed by an editor and associate-editor elected by the school. lt is open to any suggestions or contributions from anyone out- side the staff. The paper is self-supporting, for it is financed by subscriptions from the pupils, thus eliminating the necessity for securing advertisements. Faculty Advisor. Editor-in-Chief. . Associate Editor.

You will find no finer men or women anywhere, than the teachers who compose the faculty of our own McKinley High. President Coolidge in speaking of teachers says: lt is not too much to say that the need of civilization is the need of teachers! The contribution which they make to human welfare is beyond estimation. In our own country this service was never better performed than at the present day. The earnest, conscientious men and women, running from the head of the great university down to the kindergarten, represent a force for good, which is immeasurable. The influ- ence which they create for better things, the inspiration which they give for higher ideals, are the chief contributing force to the stability of society and the march of progress. The McKinley High School Parent-Teacher Association was organized April I3, I9 l 5, and has the honor of being the oldest P. T. A. in the High Schools in the United States. At this same time a Patron Association was organized, but after several lengthy discussions it was decided advisable to combine the two organi- zations and during October, 1923, they became one association, now known as the United Patron and Parent-Teacher Associa- tion of McKinley High School. The meetings are held at the school on the first Friday of each month of the scholastic year. ' Twice a year a reception is held. These social gatherings are usually preceded by an interesting entertainment in the audi- torium. All parents of McKinley students are cordially invited to attend and become a member of this necessary association. MRS. ROBERT ROY KEEBLE.

Q. ..Arthur Miller Sergeant-at-Arms ................. .Roy Beck The New Seniors of McKinley, after organizing, have com- pleted one of the most enthusiastic and enjoyable terms ever finished by a class. Every action of the class, whether individual or collective, has been accompanied by a certain spirit of pep and enthusiasm which has caused not only the success of the class, but has meant much to McKinley. From the first meeting until the last, the gatherings were marked by the large attendance and plenty of pep. Talking about large classes, the New Seniors can truthfully say that their's is the largest class that has camped at McKinley in many terms. The total enrollment is about one hundred and fifteen. One hundred and fifteen real lVlcKinleyites account for and assure the success of the New Seniors. The New Seniors are known for their originality and their ability to complete their plans. A progressive luncheon was the first unique social event of the New Seniors. This, followed by a dance, a Weenie roast, and other interesting happenings, fur- nished the class a varied social program throughout the year. The New Seniors can boast of furnishing the school with many important officers, both in the school government and the many organizations. The class has been a large factor in the increased pep at McKinley, co-operating with all organizations for the good of the entire school. Whether the New Seniors are the last graduates of lVlcKinley or the first from Roosevelt, this much is certain, the June, 1925, graduating class will be a record breaking crowd.

Excite- ment ran high for several days. It was finally announced that Albert Burns was the successful candidate. When the positions of chairman of the six standing commit- tees had been filled with the most competent and efficient people, the Student Council was ready for work. The Athletic Committee has proved to be very enthusiastic. They have arranged rallies, looked after and made the necessary arrangements for the football games and superintended the sale of tickets. In addition they have supplied the team with their necessary equipment. The Conduct and Attendance Committee look after the traffic regulations, tardiness, and the Citizenship Campaigns. These are all very important and the committee is to be con- gratulated upon the success of Citizenship Campaigns which seem to arouse much interest. The Personal Property Committee has been busy with our Emergency Room. The drapes have been cleaned, the rug renovated and the supply of medicine replenished. This room T, COUNCIL is a convenience of which we had been in need for a long time and therefore we appreciate it the more. The Auditorium Committee has arranged many interesting and worth-while sessions in the past and are still full of ideas for more which we will enjoy. The Finance Committee sees that all debts incurred by the school are paid. They have acted wisely in the past and we feel sure that the school funds are being put to the very best use possible. The Social Committee has conducted two successful New Jay Parties which were immensely enjoyed by those attending. Then came the calamity of the non-attendance at the foot- ball games. The Council immediately focused its whole attention upon the matter. The old McKinley spirit was not dead: it just needed to be awakened. A new committee was formed to work along with the Athletic Committeeg it was to be called the Pep Committee. Plans were immediately made for Pep Week. Something was planned for every day of the week- Tag Day, a Football Crimson, a Rally, etc. The co-operation of the Student Body was marvellous. The sale of tickets ingeni- ously shown by the use of a giant thermometer, mounted steadily. Pep Week went over big! But the Council has done more. Tardiness has been reduced. Theft has almost been eliminated. The Employment Bureau has been revived and many other conveniences and services have been rendered to the school. ' The Student Council at all times acts to the best of its ability. If it fails, or if you are dissatisfied, it is your fault! This is your Council, the members are your representatives and it is your duty as a citizen of McKinley to give your co-operation. We need it. ' Respectfully submitted, NADINE PEETZ, Secretary.

For this reason, all of us should not fail to re- ceive this very valu- able training in public speaking which the Assembly offers. For the benefit of the new pupils, it might here be said that the Assembly is the oldest boys' liter- ary society in McKin- ley. The principal purpose of this society is to train its members in the art of public speaking. f certain gems of litera- tureg in public speak- ing, as is shown, espe- cially by the extem- an poraneous speech, in parliamentary law, as is indicated by the parliamentary drill, and in helping to cor- rect the faults of others constructively.

Elmira Orthwein The members of the College Club are proud of their organi- zation which is, at present, the largest club in the school, boast- ing a membership of one hundred loyal and enthusiastic girls. At the beginning of the term very capable committees were appointed by the president, and, as a result, the club has had a most satisfactory term. The Art Committee produced such very attractive posters for the programs that the Bulletin Board has been 'ia thing of beauty all term. The programs themselves have been both instructive and highly entertaining. The afternoon devoted to St. Louis writers proved very popular. Poems, short stories, novels, and plays, were discussed. Short sketches of the lives and achievements of the authors, a few readings, and the recitations of poems all contributed to the success of the program. A desert program sounds very dry, but the one given by the College Club girls was intensely interesting. The recitation of the Arab's Farewell to His Steed, The Bedouin Love Song, and Pale Hands fitted in well with the papers and speeches, and the review of the book, The Winning of Bar- bara Worth, with readings of passages descriptive of the desert proved exceedingly attractive. , Another program was devoted to the fourteen noble seniors in the Club. The recitations given were, College Songs, The Owl and the Pussy Cat, and the Bold Fisherman. These were found to be very popular. The seniors finished their day with stunts to show the Club that they hadn't forgotten how to play. The College Club girls are keenly interested in debating and keep their interest alive by presenting a short debate at each regular meeting of the Club, between the last Wellsley debate and the time the teams were chosen this year. The College Club girls owe a debt of gratitude to Miss Smith who has coached the College Club debates throughout the year, With Miss Smith's kind assistance the conscientious efforts of the Club have borne fruit: for out of the eight girls chosen to rep- resent Mcliinley this year seven are College Club girls. lsn't this a record to be proud of? The Social Committee, always active, gave a College Club dance and a party during the term. So, as at all times in the past, the College Club stands for serious work as well as for good times. i T THE CARNATION '0l1ggQ ' COLLEGE CLUB , , J nl , 1.

This ability is usually attributed to the fair sex. But, boys, let the Literary give such ability to you. Silence is golden, someone says. You're wrong, says the Literary. ltis certainly not golden when the teacher asks you a question, for there are few golden goose eggs. You have to talk and say anything in order to bluff. Also when you are going to be candidate for President or Street Commissioner, it won't do you any good to be silent while the other candidates attack you. You'll have to talk, attack them, and set forth your remarkable abilities. However, speaking genius is not given only for the afore- mentioned purposes. You will find that it is very important and necessary in other fields. Let us find out what the Literary really does. You need no Alladin's lamp nor charm to find this out. All you have to do is to attend a meeting of the Literary in Room 213 and see for yourself. You will find out that one of the qualities given is debating ability. So if you are interested in debating, here will you be able to obtain ability and development. If this is perhaps too dry for you, you will probably enjoy the entertaining features. These consist of talks on current events, science, trips, and other subjects. lf you have an ear for 'wit only, you will be satisfied in the humorous stories, poems and jokes. Another feature, which has dramatic qualities, is the presenting of pantomimes. Probably you do not know what these are. If so, find out by coming to the meetings. Certainly one of these many numbers is your dish and by giving such a number will you obtain speaking talent. H The members also keep in line with school affairs. They showed their school spirit in that all of the members who do not work pledged to attend the first McKinley football game. At the beginning of the term the society was endeavoring to give another entertaining play in the auditorium. All members were hoping that it would go through. The Literary in the past has sent out its members to make a name for her and for themselves. From time to time letters come from former members or they, themselves, visit the meetings. These members have acquired ability, and the Literary wishes to continue to help others to do likewise now and in the future. The members at present are those for now. Possibly you are intended to be one of those for the future. Find out! If enough has been said to interest you in the society, but not enough to explain all to you, come up to the meetings and find out for yourself. You will find them more interesting than they have been described, for you will be able to take part in the programs and affairs. Remember always that: The Literary Leads Today!

Of course, you have heard of the O'ita before, because it represents cne of the largest clubs in school, but have you heard all about its meetlngsiand activities? Probably not, or you would already be a member. We give hikes, parties, plays, and just oodles of things to entertain our members and to make up a real, lively society. The meetings are always jolly affairs, with interesting, appropriate programs and peppy games. However, the purpose of the O'ita is not merely to furnish fun for its members, but really to help them in various ways. The chief aim of the club, of course, is to encourage an inter- est in literature, by having debates, declamatory contests, and literary programs. Also, The Gold Bug, our club paper, helps the girls to develop and display any editorial ability or wit that they have. This paper is frequently posted on our bulletin board: so that the rest of the school is invited to read it and, in this way, keep in touch with O'ita activities. The O'ita promotes the use of better English and speaking in public. This is not a very difficult task, as it is the natural result when one is an active member and partakes in discussions held at the meetings. Add to these attractive qualities a friendly crowd of girls and a moderator who is always ready and willing to help the members, and what more could a girl .look for in choosing a wide-awake society? - We know that after attending one meeting and witnessing all of O'ita's pep you won't wait for more urging to join us. Watch the O'ita board outside of 205 for the date of our next meeting. If you're too timid to come alone, bring all your friends, but you won't feel strange or neglected. After you are once an O'itaite, you will have many new friends and will forget all about being bashful. Don't forget lt's never too late to join! OLIVIA UTZ, Secretary.

E dward Harmon Sergeant-at-Arms ............. Melvin Barkon Librarians ..... Harold Welge, Wilhelmine Plank Early this term Mr. Miller gave his consent to the reorgani- zation of the Mask and Buskin, McKinley's former dramatic society. No sooner was this done than try-outs were held to determine the membership. The first meeting of the club was held on October l6th in room 301. After the officers for the term had been elected, a committee was appointed to draw up a constitution. Program and art committees were also appointed, so that as soon as pos- sible the members might start to fulfill the purpose of the club, namely, the study and presentation of amateur dramatics. At this same meeting the club was informed that the Parent- Teacher Association expected a play on November 7th. With scarcely more than three weeks in which to select a play and cast and to rehearse and prepare the stage settings, the club set to work on their first public performance. , The Violin-Maker of Cremonan was the one-act costume play chosen as the first presentation of the new Mask and Buskin. Nicholas Georgopoulos, Hertha Beck, Edward Harmon and Ralph Rector were those who had the leading parts in the play. They were aided by Pages, Citizenesses and Violin-Makers. This play was repeated on December Sth, before the Student Body. Miss Brown, one of McKinley's art teachers, very kindly con- sented to help with the color and stage effects, and to give gen- erously of her time in assisting the art committee, and cast to pre- pare the costumes. The Mask and Buskin also presented a short sketch for the Thanksgiving Day exercises, given in the auditorium, on Novem- ber 24th, entitled The Courtship of Miles Standish. The cast was composed of Elise Mardorf, Mariann Wiggin, Albert Renje and Eugene Thomas. ' Thereafter at weekly programs short one-act plays were pre- sented. The Minuet, a- serious one-act play, The Lamp Went Out, a humorous pantomime, and a Christmas play, were staged in November and December. lt is the hope of the organization to let every member appear in an auditorium performance once a term. The membership will be limited so as to carry out this purpose. Tryouts will be held every term for those who desire to be- come members of this worth-while organization. . AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT To F. Buckley, a well-known violin maker, of 4048 Olive street, the Mask and .Buskin is greatly indebted for the use of the violins, 'cellos, and other musical instruments in the stage setting of the play, The Violin-Maker of Cremonaf' on Novem- ber 7th and December Sth. To Miss Alice Glatfeller, of the St. Louis Antique Shop, of 42l4 Olive street, the club is also deeply indebted for the use of the early-Colonial chairs, spinning wheel and reel, rugs and pictures in the stage setting of the Thanksgiving sketch, The Courtship of Miles Standish.

Alita Trader, Dorothy Althans The Carol Club was reorganized about six terms ago, due to the need for a cage for all the song birds fluttering unappreciated around McKinley's corridors. Under the able supervision of Mr. Maginn, the club has grown from a membership of fifteen to the present membership of forty. Not only have advances been made in the way of membership, but also in music. Mr. Maginn has shown his ability in cultivating the girls' voices, as many can testify who hear them practice every Monday and Wednesday, the fourth period, in the auditorium. Business meetings are frequently held to discuss financial and social affairs of the club. During these meetings the president officiates and many of the girls prove themselves first-class de- baters. During each of the preceding years the girls have given a spread, but this year it was decided to do something to help others. An entertainment for the old ladies of Bethesda Home was finally decided on as being the best way in which to give happiness to others. CLUB Miss Blodgett helped with many practical suggestions and kindly consented to chaperon the girls. on Monday, the tenth of November, at 3:00 P. M., the Carol Club arrived at Bethesda. A very enjoyable program was given, which Consisted 'of two piano selections by Miss Olive Davis, two vocal solos by Miss Nellie Boswell, a former Mcliinleyite, several readings by Miss Hertha Beck and a number of songs by the Carol Club as a whole. Needless to say, this program was highly enjoyed. Q 1 While refreshments were served the Carol Club rendered re- quest numbers. Among them were Annie Laurie, Sweet Garden, and many well-loved songs of years gone by. When the time came to go, the Carol Club felt amply rewarded by the smiles of thanks on many of the old ladies' faces and the numer- ous invitations to come again. It is easily believed that the Carol Club enjoyed this little party more than any spread they could have given, judging from the way it was talked of afterwards. Aside from little social doings of this kind, the Carol Club is asked to sing at debates, plays, and other entertainments and, judging from the applause it receives in most cases is appreciated greatly by the audience. Many plans are being formed for the new school year which means that the club will be very busy, interesting, and lively. Any girl interested in music can be assured that a jolly and bene- ficial time awaits her in the Carol Club, and every girl is welcome to come and join in the work. ln closing, it might be well to add that the same number of credits are given for participating in the work of this interesting club as are given- for regular chorus work.

N o rman Morgens The lVlcKinley Glee Club, under the able leadership of lVlr. Maginn, has -proven this term to be the best Glee'Club that lVlcKinley has had. On several occasions the Club has met with the best of success, particularly in public appearances before the Patrons'-Teachers' Association. ln the near future the Cllee Club is expected to give a min- strel, as there are many members who have talent. The worth of the art of Music as an element of social enjoy- ment is recognized as a practice of musical skill. There is prob- ably no science or art which inspires so much delight in all classes of society as that of music. People of higher education make music a valuable portion of their program. However, a man may know, whether in art and science, that there is nothing half so interesting as music. few may be attracted to hear some new or interesting fact or discovery in or out of science, but it is music alone which is a means of enjoyment to all. A It is only when music is connected with words that one's emotions are excited and is capable of producing a picture. Many people who listen to a symphony, without the mental picture, never receive the greatest possible benefits. The progress of the art of music, like all other arts, is de- pendent on the advancement of the human mind. The power of appreciating the charms and beauties of music, and of bene- fiting by its employment, grows up with the skill which calls new thoughts into exercise. Glee Clubs organized to develop and encourage part singing by male voices are growing in number and popularity everywhere. ln the community, in the school, and in commercial and industrial organizations, the advantages of a male chorus to vary musical programs, and to give pleasure to singers and audiences, are becoming increasingly apparent. The first problem that confronts such clubs is the one of ob- taining suitable material. There is a vast amount of music for male voices, but most of it has been written or adopted for male quartets or choruses of more than average skill and train- ing. The group of singers brought together by their own impulse for the joy of singing, find themselves with little music, suitable for their purpose, and discouragement is likely to ensue. The Glee Club at lVlcKinley, although now successful, can be of much greater value to the school, if so made by the students. Boys who are interested in the study of music as an enjoyable pastime, are cordially invited to investigate the Glee Club at McKinley. There is fun as well as serious work, and the benefiits are apparent. Perhaps the Glee Club is just the organization for which you have been looking. You had better investigate. THE SECRETARY.

' The Orchestra appeared before the school at one of the audi- torium sessions, and the concert was appreciated by the entire school. The McKinley Orchestra will also make several public appearances in the coming term. Although the organization is quite large this term, there is always room for more. If you play any musical instrument what- soever, and can possibly be free the seventh period on Tuesdays and Fridays, you should at once become a member of the Orchestra. For one who likes music and is able to play an instru- ment the Orchestra is necessarily of interest. Support your school and become a member of the McKinley Orchestra. Any person desiring membership should see Mr. Maginn, the director, as soon as possible, and arrange to attend the meetings. One great advantage of the Orchestra is that all its meetings are held during school time, and the McKinley Orchestra does not require any of your after school time. Members of the Orchestra are not required to take chorus music. For a person'-who wishes to study' music as a profession, orchestra work is of a great importance. Fundamentalsilearned and the experience gained in high school will undoubtedly be of great value to persons who desire to take up music as a pro- fession. Such persons should at once become members of the McKinley Orchestra. The Orchestra has a very able director, and through his help the McKinley Orchestra is one of the best in the high schools of St. Louis. The music of the McKinley Orchestra is very beneficial. The experience of performing be- fore large audiences, is gained. For several terms the McKinley Orchestra has not been very well known to the school. The Orchestra very seldom appeared before the school or made any public appearances. Many said that the Orchestra had lost all of its pep, but for the last few terms it has been one of the liveliest clubs in school. Mr. lVlaginn's excellent supervision has brought about this change. just keep your eyes on the McKinley Orchestra and watch the improvement. The Orchestra naturally consists of pupils who wish to make it the best one McKinley has had. Although the members of the McKinley Orchestra are working toward this goal, they must have the support of the school. Every term there are changes, and Mr. Maginn has to rely on the pupils of the McKinley to furnish the necessary membership. If McKinley can defeat the other high schools in baseball and track, why can't she defeat them in music as well? If the pupils of McKinley desire to see the lVlcKinley Orchestra where lVlcKin- ley always is, come and be a member. ' McKinley possesses a reputation for her ability to compete in all branches of activity. From athletics to debating she produces formidable representatives. The Orchestra is one of the branches of activity of which McKinley is proud. V Boost for a bigger, bet- ter Orchestra in l925. I... C. B. THE CARNATION ,.,5qll33gQ-..

Interesting programs consisting of jokes, riddles, poems, descriptions of great German cities, folk stories, etc., are pre- pared. Games are played and songs are sung. At one of the meetings, in celebration of Schiller's birthday, each member answered the roll call with a quotation from one of Schiller's worksg also, the story of his life was told and a scene from one of his greatest plays, Wilhelm Tell, was given. Last term we had a IOO scoring system. Points were given for attendance at meetings, answering l roll call with a prov- erb, being an officer, being on the program, etc. A prize was given to the one having the highest n u mb e r of points. Belle Weiner, who was our Presi- dent, won the con- test. Although our mem- bership is not as large as may be desired, we hope for a greater en- 1 rollment next term. 5 Anyone who has suc- cessfully completed ' his first term of Ger- man, or who can i speak and understand I German to some ex- tent, is eligible for membership, and may be assured of pleas- il ant hours well spent. . ,il THE SECRETARY. -.1.gfll81gr-- THE CARNATIQN SPANISH CLUB Motto: Adelante, siempre adelante Well, that sounds interesting.

Misses Barbee, Brown and Place OFFICERS President .................. .Vilma Hennings Vice-President .............. Dora Mae Silber Secretary-Treasurer .............. Bessie Corn The 'iraison d 'etren of the Art Club is to create a more general interest in art and to further' an appreciation of the beautiful. One does not have to pass an examination in draw- ing or any other branch of art to belong to the Art Club. One does not even need to be taking art as a subject. Of course, the success of the member depends largely upon his ability and appli- cation, but lack of talent does not bar him or should it discourage him from joining. The greater part of last term the Art Club was very busy with batik work. This is a method of textile designing in which the design is applied on silk with a brush dipped in hot wax. The next step is to fill out the design with dyes. A great many differ- ent and pleasing effects can be procured in scarfs, handkerchiefs and many other things. This year Miss Brown has introduced quick pose sketches, and the Club is making Christmas cards under Miss Barbeeis leadership. And so, if you are at all inter- ested in art or have any suggestions concerning the Club, come to the meetings held in either Room 307, 308 or 309 Wednes- day evenings. Miss Barbee, Miss Brown and Miss Place will do their best to make the club worth your while. f 1 TI-IE RIFLE CLUB Moderator ..., Dbii M I-, W. H.

Klenk The Rifle Club, under the capable leadership of Mr. Grocott, has just completed a most successful term. Although The Rifle Club was organized late last spring, it did not begin in earnest until the term just completed. The membership was limited to twenty, so as to determine just how manygmembers could be handled by Mr. Grocott. During the past term many of the members passed the junior Marksmanshipn test of the National Rifle Association, which the club joined early in the term. Many of the boys also became expert marksmen under the careful teaching of our moderator. To him is due all the credit, as most of the boys and matches with other local schools. The results of these matches were very favorable to McKinley. They proved that Mr. Grocott had really been successful in developing a repre- sentative team, which was able to hold its own with local rifle teams. V Plans have also been made for the entering of a team of or several teams to represent McKinley, in tournaments to be held next spring 119255 under the supervision of the National Rifle Association of America. Summing up the events and doings of the Rifle Club this past term, you can easily realize success the club has had. W. T. K., Secretary. get 120159.

This year, if the teams fulfill their promise and bring it home again, it will be the permanent possession of McKinley. It has been the custom to select the teams from the O'ita and College societies, but this year, in order to get the best McKinley has to offer, the teams were chosen from the school at large. The proposition for debate was, Resolved, That the Federal government construct a navigable channel with a minimum depth of eight feet, and a minimum width of 300 feet from St. Louis to Cairo, to be completed within a period of five years. The teams to debate this question are: if THEBOY ll N the first Princeton Cup Debate of the year, McKinley I was defeated by Cleveland. The affirmative of the ques- tion: Resolved, That the United States enter the League of Nations immediately, was upheld by McKinley. The con- test was close throughout, although the Cleveland boys showed better in delivery. A large and enthusiastic crowd witnessed the contests which was held at Cleveland on the seventh of Novem- ber. McKinley is scheduled to meet Central in the next debate, which takes place at McKinley on January 9th. By winning the S Affirmative: Esta Fleming, Margaret Probasco, Minnie Solo- man. Alternate: Margaret Warner. Negative: Laura Briscoe, Ruth Henckler, Gladys Kammerer. Alternate: Emily Bausch. The affirmative team, which will debate Cleveland in Cleve- land's auditorium, is being coached by Miss Battle. The negative team, which will debate Yeatman in McKinley's auditorium, is being coached by Miss Smith. When we take into consideration these coaches and the abili- ties of these girls, we cannot help but whisper, I think we'll get that Wellesley Cup, don't you? DEBATE three remaining debates, the McKinley boys can claim the Prince- ton Cup, although the first debate has been lost. Debating each year is coming more and morehinto promi- nence in the high schools of St. Louis. McKinley's team works hard, and whether they win or lose they deserve the support of the school. i McKlNLEY'S DEBATERS FOR i924-l925 William Evans Rene Lusser Fred Hines Cullen Coil IHHU MLQUPIR, THE CARNATION ---sQfl23jge4-- A HUMOR DUMB-BELL-o-GRAMS A A fortune awaits the man who invents an adjustable engage- ment ring.

M. WHELPLEY, Ph. G., M. D. Dean of Faculty 2108-21 I0 Locust Street Saint Louis, Mo. lt was Wednesday, the day for raisin bread. He was worried, for he knew that since one thousand men voted on what millions wanted most in a shaving cream there was no longer an excuse for a dingy film on the teeth. Altho he knew that it was much better than the average ten-cent smoke he wondered which one of the fifty- seven varieties to buy. As he walked across McCall Street he instinctively jumped out of the way of the world's finest automo- bile before he realized that no metal could touch him. The worried look increased and he told himself that he could use the extra fifty dollars a month and wondered if, after all, good oil wasn't cheaper. As he entered the office he caught a glimpse of himself in the hall mirror and was convinced after all that clothes do make the man. But, alas, the insidious part of it was that not even his closest friend would tell him: yet he was certain that if he wore his garters around his' neck he would change them oftener.-The Owl. His Lucky Night Rastus was sporting proudly a new shirt, when a friend asked: How many yards does it take for a shirt like that? Rastus replied: l got three shirts like this out of one yard last I night. -The Pathfinder. PATRONIZE THE ADVERTISERS eyzsjgi.
