For youth that is fleet Is hope that is sweet, In raplures of loving and giving, So blow, hugle, blow, and let the world know That life is a joy worth the living. Blow, bugle, Set the wild echoes flying! And make morning rife with the echoes of life, And silence regret and vain crying. The fire of the night Has vanished from sight, And dead are its last fitful flashes, But on high joyous wing shall the Phoenix Bird sing, As it rises supreme from its ashes. Blow, bugle, Set the wild echoes flying! Blow a tribute to one who through long years has done A service eternal, undying. The years may divide, But our mentor and guide Shall live in the lives she has molded, And like incense shall fire our lofty desire, Till the great book of Life is unfolded, -MARGARET HOBSON ALBERS MR.

Q A MATTER OF INSTINCT My friend Thornton has been dead a little over a year, yet the circumstances con- nected with his violent death have perpetuated his memory more than has his own per- sonality, The series of events which culminated in his death began at an after-luncheon dis- cussion at the Union League Club in New York, at which Thornton and myself were present. Clarkson, one of the group of friends, had entered the club while we were enjoy- ing our cigars, and gave us the accounts of a dreadful accident which he had just witnessed. A workman had bravely rescued a small child from the path of a speeding and heavily laden motor-truck, but in so doing had lost his life beneath the wheels of the truck. The dead man left seven dependents: a wife and six young children. Clarkson took great pains to stress the unhappy state of affairs resulting from the sad event, for he pointed out that so far as he had learned, the family circle was a cheerful and a happy one. All of us, save Thornton, commended the man for his heroic sacrifice. Observing Thornton's apparent indifference, we ventured to inquire what his opinion of the matter was. After a thoughtful pause, he remarked quietly: If I understand the case correctly, the man succeeded in rescuing the child, but lost his life, leaving, practically destitute, a large family. We nodded our acquiescence, slightly nettled. But, he continued, shaking his head sadly. the man did an unwise thing: I daresay, leaving out any sentiment in the matter, he committed a serious wrong. By arbitrarily taking matters into his own hands he failed in the performance of his social duty. I' think that that particular act was not commendable, and the unfortunate man deserving of no praise. Now had an ordinary person made this observation, we would have unhesitatingly censured him with considerable warmth, and become convinced that the man was either insane, or devoid of any sense of chivalry and sentiment. But Thornton was greatly respected, for, besides being a brilliant young lawyer with every qualification for success in his career, he possessed intellectual powers quite above the average. His comment puzzled us, and I think his view of the matter was influenced by his feeling his own sense of security, for he enjoyed the benefits of a particularly cheerful home-life, his close attach- ment to his charming wife and their three small children being a matter of much favorable comment. After regarding him curiously for some moments, Graves, an elderly broker, said: Why, may I ask, do you hold such extraordinary views? My reasons, in a certain sense, are justifiable, Thornton responded, Any man, no matter what his station in life be, who takes it upon himself to beget a family, how- ever large, naturally is required to support that family. Any steps taken to avoid that responsibility are dishonorable means of shirking the obligation. That man, not realizing that his act would mean certain death, rescued a child who does not know what misery and poverty mean. What results? A happy family is plunged into the depths of direst needg it becomes a social burden and an object of charity. And this deplorable condition results simply for the sake of an ideal, a so-called gallant rescue. On the other hand, had the man reflected for a moment, and decided to permit the child to perish, a single unimportant life would have been sacrificed. As it now is, a half dozen or more lives are wrecked, for a devoted couple are forever separated, and the children are deprived of the pleasant experiences of childhood. There are cases which Twenty-six depend upon the circumstances, when we should be irresponsive to the instinctive feeling to rush to the aid of humanity in distress. Speaking plainly, I think the man acted foolishly. The prolonged silence which ensued was finally broken by the sound of Thornton making ready to leave. As he seemed anxious to go, we refrained from detaining him, so I offered to drive him to his home in Glenwood, a suburb, some fifteen miles distant. The road upon which we traveled ran parallel to the railroad tracks on our right, and as we drove along, the speeding Local could be heard approaching the long curve in the near-distance. While in the midst of an animated discussion, Thornton suddenly behaved like a man bereft of his senses. With a look of horror upon his face, he leaped wildly from the slow-moving automobile, and dashed off the road. Stopping short, I stared in the direc- tion of his retreating figure and saw that which caused his sudden action. A small child, wholly unmindful of the rapid approach of the onrushing Death that came hurtling round the curve, was standing on the rails. Thornton had taken in the situation at a glance: the speeding train bearing down upon the unseen child. After I had scrambled from the car, I pursued Thornton, screaming that he could never clear the track in time to save his life. He scaled the right-of-way fence, literally tumbling over it in his frantic haste, while I stood staring stupidly, a mute witness of the hopeless attempt, Slipping and sliding, Thornton gained the elevated road-bedg with a superhuman effort he leaped between the rails, pushed the child from danger, and was struck by the on-speed- ing engine, his body being thrown clear of the tracks and into the bordering ditch. Later, in the room at the hospital, his wife and children, a few close friends, including Graves, and the attending surgeons and nurses watched for the end. Slowly Thornton opened his eyes, and we pressed about his bedside. Then Graves, anticipating the unspoken question on Thornton's lips, whispered: Thornton, the child is unharmedf' Thornton smiled faintly, and feebly muttered: Graves - one's - instincts - do sometimes - impel - one - to - overstep - the - bounds -- of A- reason .... -RAYMOND RICE, '22, -:pf SPRING I l-lark! The birds and flowers tell that Spring is here, When the earth's in all its beauty then that season must be near. Oh the world is full of beauty, and there's music everywhere, I can hear the robin singing. Yes, there's beauty in the air. 2 The golden sun in heaven bids her rays to be more bright, And the flower covered hill wait mortals' coming with delight. Would that I could be a flower standing graceful, sweet and fair, Then the silver dew would kiss me: then I should be free from care. 3 Awaken, oh you people. Rise from slumber, this is Spring. Can't you see the flowers blooming? Can't you hear the birds all sing? But alas. 'Twill soon be over, birds and flowers fade so fast, Let the world be glad and happy while the loving Spring does last. -LUUELLE HOPKINS, Room 208. Twenty-seven LIONS WHILE YOU WAIT Yes, Joe, but why couldn't I' get an Indian guide? The speaker was John French, president of the Independent Film Corporation. Were he even a trifle less brave, he would not have attempted the hazardous journey through the Padrone valleyg but his natural adventurousness, that which had dragged him from the position of student in the College of Agriculture, and which, after a few years, had placed him at the head of a successful releasing concern, now propelled him onward. Ten years had passed since he had last seen this valley, a valley which rivaled for terrors Death Valley itself. John was now conversing with his old friend Joe Ramer, a Iuckless prospector. Wal, I figures, answered Ramer, that all them Injuns are skeered. Thar's very few things that could skeer them. Must be some hoodoo. Ramer himself seemed to be skeered. Fact 0' the matter is, Ramer continued, I heerd about some strange li-ons, People say they roam around, wal, about sundown, Lions! Eh! French exploded. Well, I'll just take an extra rifle-and as for Indian guides, never again will I employ a one of those slithering cowards. Aw, doan be down on them poor fellers, Ramer interceded. They doan know any better. French had come to the Padrone valley not only to see his old friend Joe, but also to see Jim and Laura Grant. Before J im and Laura had come west for the former's health, French hadn't noticed Laura very much. She was-well, passably pretty. Now that a decade had passed, French found divers little questions about her shooting into his mind. It was strange how she wasted herself on the barren Padrone valley. But she stayed for her brother's sake. Say, Joe, French asked, how are the Grants? Wal, John, Ramer replied, I hates to tell you. Jim never knew nohow tuh run a ranch, even his small one. Last year the water all dried up and he lost the whole crop. Now they're livin' off their savin's. Joe, I guess I'll go as soon as possible, exclaimed French. HI' heard that their place was a mile on this side of Bluefieldsf' Yap, agreed Ramer, only you'd better start pritty early tomorrow mornin'. . Tomorrow? Why, I'm going today. You must be crazy, Y'w'll burn up, cried Ramer. That day, French started out on the trail for Bluefields. Six hours later, footsore and bemoaning his foolhardiness for not waiting a day longer, he sighted a lone building. With the added strength of expectation, he reached the habitation. Coming around a corner, he spied a queer specimen of natural science. By his appearance and because of the apparatus in the yard, French suspected that the man was a scientist. After a dubious consideration, French decided to disturb him. Pardon me, does- The supposed scientist turned around and shouted: I never put up strangers. Go to the farm over there. I-Ie pointed to a place about a mile away. The Grants live there, he continued, they may take you in. French, after thanking the man, went on. Arriving at the farm, he discovered Grant in a field. After the preliminary con- gratulations, jim took French to Laura Grant, his sister. French was told of the queer Dr. Hertz whom he had seen on his way to the ranch. About an hour later, as it was nearing sundown, French and Laura went out into the front yard to see the far-famed western sunset. Happening to glance at the lower portion of one of the barns, French saw what seemed to be a mountain lion. The old rascal was gloatingly licking his chops in anticipation of a well-earned feast. Twenty-eight French, disgusted at his neglect to replace the weapons he had removed after his arrival at the farm, rushed into the house for his rifie. Dashing out, he shot at the unmoving lion. Then, without any warning, the lion seemed to melt away, Nothing remained, nothing could be found. A week passed, during which French was visiting at the Grants. Every night at sundown the same procedure was adhered to. While attempting to solve the mystery. French lent a hand in helping Grant straighten out the affairs of the ranch. Then one day an automobile drove up. In it was Bob Walters, an employee of a rival film corporation. He asked the way to Dr. Hertz's. That evening, as usual, the mountain lion was seen, but the next night, strange to say, he made no appearance. About eight o'clock on the night when the lion was not seen, a tremendous explosion assailed the senses of all at the Grant ranch. Fire! Fire! was the cry. Yes, there it was. Dr. Hertz's place was but a mass of flames. Everybody dashed to the burning building. Smells like celluloidf' said French, as they approached the burning house. Before they reached the place, they encountered Bob Walters and Dr. Hertz. How did it start? When? Why? were but a few of the queries. Walters answered: It is of no use to try to save the building, Let it go. But here is Dr. Hertz, one of the best scientists of the world. In order to be free from inter- ruptions, he retired to their desolate valley. Here he perfected his greatest invention. What, broke in Grant. His greatestiu Yes, continued Walters, an invention I tried to buy. What is it? queried Grant. The most brilliant invention of the motion picture age-a screenless projector. A screenless projector? Grant asked. Yes, Walters said, a moving picture projector that doesn't need a screen. The projectors we now use demand something solid for the pictures to be thrown upon. Dr. Hertz's invention would focus the pictures upon the very air. Light vibrations form a fluid-like substance, something akin to the Odic Huid of the Spiritualists or to the sensi- tized substance of films. But a special light vibration is necessary to form this peculiar Huid in the air. Dr. Hertz alone discovered a chemical that would produce this light- vibrationl His secret is dead, however, as the events of the last hour have driven him insane. And so marvelous an invention is gone from the world? demanded Grant. Yes, Walters sadly replied. HI tried to buy it, but he wanted too much, He said he would destroy his invention if I did not give him what he wanted. He did what he threatened. He attempted to dash in to kill himself, but I pulled him out here. Yes, the most marvelous invention-gone. An inkling of the truth dawned upon French. Then this must be the reason for that mountain lion, French said to Laura. Hertz focused moving pictures of that hungry animal on the very air. Laura, we were fooled. Anyway, I' should have known better. French seemed to notice Laura more than he used to. I guess it's true, Laura answered. I bet I know what Joe Ramer will say when I tell him all about this, laughingly said French. What would he say? asked Laura. He'll say, 'An' yuh wasted lots uh good shot on a wuthless spirut'. But French didn't see Ramer for a long while, the reason being that he stayed to help Jim Grant. And, of course, whoever stayed with Jim stayed with Laura. -Rewritten by FRANCIS BEELER, '22. Twenty-nine THE POWER CURVE I gazed in frank curiosity at the man seated across from us. Of modest stature, plain featured, quietly dressed, this man was the type that blends into the mob, and yet, as presi- dent of the local traction company, he had dragged that concern from a very violent flir- tation with the sheriff to its present impregnable position. Truly, here was a book not to be judged by its cover. Davidson and I were sitting through the recital in attentive silence, with an occasional question or two. This matter, gentlemen, Forbes, the traction man, was saying, may not seem to you to require the services of the police. I thought at first that a little search on the part of the linemen would clear the thing up. But I am convinced now that there is no ordinary leak. Every morning at l:45, A.lVI. there comes this extraordinary call for power. At this time practically everything is off our lines except the freight trains. When it was first noticed, I attributed it to grounding, but the regularity with which it occurs, considering, too, the unusual hour-forces one to abandon that theory. The linemen found several small grounds and removed them. This had no effect whatever on the mysterious drain. Then I gave the engineers a try at it. They have been unable to eliminate or account for it. Of course, the story leaked out and has been going the rounds of the barn. And this is really the reason I have sought police aid. For the affair seems to threaten to assume unsuspected proportions. You see, the men superstitiously attribute the thing to super- natural agencies and the theory that we are being warned of a catastrophe is gaining a serious following. A few men rather than risk flying in the face of fate have quit their jobs already and I realize that it is only a matter of a short time when there will be a general walkout. Chief Davidson has brought you to me as a man qualified to handle the matter, by reason of your knowledge of electricity. I must urge you, Mr. Fenner, to bend every effort to the speedy ending of this mystery, and I can assure you that the company will pay well for the successful solution. All our resources are at your disposal. Here are passes over our lines, and should you need aid at any time you have only to use the telephone. Superstition is a force against which even a rifle is useless, said Fenner. I will do my best to bring to light the real cause of the power loss in time to avert trouble with your employees. Let us review the facts of the case. To begin with, about a month ago the men in charge at the power house noticed a sudden and severe call for power about 1:45 each morning. Forbes bowed in silence. Fenner proceeded. And how, Mr. Forbes, was their attention directed to this unusual call? By the peak in the power curve, answered the traction magnate. The peak in the power curve? asked Davidson, blankly. What in thunder is that? Both Fenner and Forbes smiled. You see, Chief, Forbes explained, We make our generators keep a record of their output. By means of an electrically operated writing arm we cause them to record on graph paper a record of the day's outputf' This tracing-this record is-is known as the power curve. Clear to you? Well, I get the general drift, admitted the Chief, but I am hardly up on the details. Later you will see more of it, Fenner suggested. Let us resume. You have had your linemen go over the circuits with a fine tooth comb, Mr. Forbes, and they have found no reason for the loss. Also the engineers can find no clue to its cause. Forbes nodded. I-Iave you a personal theory? Thirty Forbes seemed uncertain. When he spoke it was hesitatingly. WellfI hardly know. I did have a sort of a suspicion, to be frank with you, but, honestly, I don't think it will hold water. In confidence, then, lVlr. Forbes, Fenner was pleasantly persuasive, let us have your suspicion. It can do no harm to air a personal opinion. Well, when I realized that we were up against no ordinary leak, the idea took root in my mind that we were having a taste of what the circus men call-er-'dirty opposition'. Noting Fenner's arched brows and the evident bewilderment of the Chief and myself, he hastened to explain. There is no other traction company in operation in our territory, of course, but you will recall that since I took charge, our company has branched out into the business of selling power. Here we met the city gas and power company, and quite a lively competition has ensued. I am forced to say that we have been getting the better of the bargain, and, while I dislike to entertain the thought, it occurred to me that possibly the other side was striking at us in this fashion. Don't agree with you, Mr. Forbes, exploded Davidson. Theory doesn't agree with my way of thinking. I'm no electrician, but I can realize--and so would any member of the city gas crowd-that this little leak could scarcely be felt by you fmanciallyf' Fenner smiled. You brush Mr. Forbes' theory aside rather thoughtlessly, Chief, he remarked. Suppose that someone connected with the city's gas consumption were well enough versed in Professor James' psychological bunk to realize the probable effect of this mysterious peak on the working force of the traction company, particularly the car crews? It wouldn't be such a small thing then, would it? Forbes beamed. Exactly, Mr. Fenner. You have thoroughly grasped my idea. Unpleasant as the thought is, the only plausible explanation that has occurred to me is that someone who desires to cripple us is attempting to terrorize our men. One thing more, Mr. Forbesf' Fenner remarked, I would like to see the charts that have those power curves on them. From his coat pocket Forbes produced a large envelope. Here they are, he said, and we crowded around the table to stare at them. On the graph paper was a heavy dark line meandering over the face of the paper telling of the day's consumption. Any unusual call for power was easily discernible by the sharply rising line, the duration of the load being indicated by the length of the line at its highest level. It was necessary only to glance at the bottom of the chart to tell the time at which any particular incident had occurred. On each sheet at l :45 A.lVI., when the dropping line told of only a few freight cars on the rails, a sharply rising peak in the curve told of an enormous call for current. Davidson gazed down on the tell-tale sheets in awe-struck surprise. Clever, that power curve stuff, he rumbled his admiration! I get that peak trick now. May I have these? Fenner asked, I will return them at the end of this business, of course. Forbes nodded, And is there anything further to be brought up? If not I wish you good evening. I am relying on you in this matter. Fenner and I arose as the Chief and Forbes made their adieux. When the door had closed after them, he turned to me. Great Old Worldf' he laughed. Now what do you think of that? Looks very serious for somebody, I answered. You and Davidson make quite a team, laughed Fenner. Because Forbes suggested a possibility you are both busy, picking a jury and offering a long sentence. Dead open and shut, I retorted, for to me it was obvious that the derivers of benefit Thirly-one were solely the heads of the suspected corporation. Bet you a quarter we'll knock on their door before tomorrow nightf, Fenner turned, Bet you the niftiest amplifier the De Forest Company can turn out that the only reason you will have to knock on the City gas door will be to pay your bill. You think that someone else and not they are doing this thing? Don't think it, I know it. I mentioned the James' dope to show Davidson something of Forbes' mental processes and not because I favored the theory. And why not? I demanded. For the same reason I would not charge them of doctoring the gas meters-too many people involved and too much chance for a leak, he answered. Surely you don't regard this thing as an accidental ground that forms by coincidence at just that hour each morning? I retorted. It would be possible, yes, he came back coolly. But I am willing to take the line- men's word for it that they have investigated every point when grounds would be likely to occur. Which leaves us just one other possibility. Which is? I demanded. Theft by an individual, or individuals, of power for some purpose. Yes, I jeered, a purpose that must be served at one forty-five each morning, and which is apparently satisfied in two minutes. Some nut, I presume, who goes forth in the wee-small hours to test a freak motor. Fenner's face darkened. That's just what gets me, he said thoughtfully, the duration of the peak. I can't possibly think of anything than would require such an awful bundle of juice for such a short time. There's something I want to think of-something that seems to escape me. There is just one thing I can mention that would require such a load, and only one thing I could suggest off hand. Which is? I am not going to mention what it is just now, came the disappointing reply, It happens to be weaker than the city gas theory. And as I don't think much of it myself, I am not going to get you confused by adding it to your already acrobatic mind. Knowing him as I did, and the hour being late we parted for the night. We sallied forth the next morning with no definite end in view. We intended to make a trip over the lines to see what we might be able to stumble over. Passing through a quiet block on our way to the nearest car-line we beheld a huckster actively disposing of his stock in trade, which seemed to consist entirely of fish. He was selling from a decrepit push-cart, and as we passed he quoted a price to the housewife whom he was bargaining with. Fenner grasped me by the arm. IVIy! that was cheap, he said. Amused, I bantered, didn't know you were up on the value of fish, I laughed. Versatile, aren't you? I know that was cheap, he retorted, and I am going to send that fellow around to the house. Come on. We went back to the cart with its odorous load. Finished with the woman at the door the merchant came over to us. Having heard his prices, Fenner gave him his address with instructions to mention the meeting. Then as an after thought he added, Have you a telephone? I might need fish for a special occasion in the near future, and if I could get it in a hurry you might land a sizable order. I ain't got a telephone, mister, the chap replied, but I live at number nine juniper Street. Send me a post card and I will be right on the job. Fenner carefully noted down the address, and as we rode along on the car I remarked. Now what? Going to treat a flock of radio Hends to a fish feed? You wrote that address down as if you treasured it. Thirly-lwo ln these days of high prices I cherish anything that is cheap 7-even fish, came the reply. And where to now, I demanded, anxious to get the business in hand. The reply was startling. To the zoo. The zoo, I echoed blankly, what do you expect to find there? Animals, said he demurely, we will feast our minds and eyes on natureys wonders, the traction company has furnished the transportation. What becomes of the peak in the power curve, I snorted, are we going to play with our fingers? We are until this evening. Then we will sally forth and endeavor to put an end to this peak. We will sally where? I asked. Just take a guess. Yep, but I think we can do some very close guessing at that. That's all you get till tonight. And so it was that I left the car barn that evening with a party consisting of Davidson, Forbes, a plainclothes-man and ourselves, all in the dark, both figuratively and in reality. Fenner directed our activities. We transferred to a car bound for the open country. If I didn't know you as well as I do, I would say it was the road to nowhere, with just nothing waiting for us at the end, Davidson growled. Until this expedition fails I am in charge, Chief, said Fenner, quietly, and with a grumble Davidson gave in. At Fenner's command we dropped down from the slowed down car, in the open country. In silence we stumbled over a narrow path at his heels. Then a hundred yards or so from the track a clearing and the river. There was a quickly extinguished glare from I7enner's flash- light and then darkness again. Eleven forty-hvef' said Fenner, Uwe have a couple of hours to wait. No talking and no smoking please. My feet had been asleep about a century when I felt Fennens fingers closing over my arm. At the same time I heard a rustle of the bushes in the pathway beyond. An ominous figure loomed in the blackness beyond. With bated breath I watched its shadowy movements. Fearful of even the sound of my own breathing, I was half stiHed by trying to live on a minimum of air. Presently the bulk retreated to the river and I thought I recognized something familiar about its shape. I felt Fenner lean over and touch Davidson. Then he stcpped forward. Fish are cheapfy he remarked loudly. The man whirled and in that instant I placed him. The fish dealer of the morning! There was a startling oath, a quick gleam in the moon-light, a blinding Hash, and a red hot seat on my cheek, a thunderous report and another one at my temple. Dazed for a moment I could not follow closely what happened in the next few seconds. I was vaguely aware that the second concussion had been the roar of Davidsonls automatic. When I saw clearly again, the unlucky fish huckster was dead. Vfell, he had done his best in his peculiar profession. Davidson had hit the poor fellow in a vital spot. Well,'y said Fenner dryly, I had no idea that he would shoot. I never would have Staged this little drama if I had foreseen this conclusion. Anyway, lVlr. Forbes, there will be no more peaks in your power curvesf' What was it? What was he doing?U queried Forbes. He placed a metallic conductor, probably an old boiler in the stream. Then all he had to do was to turn on the power, shut it off, and go out to bring in his haul. Then he was using the company's power ' I' began Forbes. Yes, fishing, replied Fenner, Ufishing with your five hundred and fifty volt trolly wire for baitf' - C. X.

Large wooden wheels, tools and a whiffle-tree are seen in a far corner. When the curtain rises a young girl is seen sitting on a barrel eating an apple and reading a book. Footsteps are heard Without. The girl closes the book and looks up. Another girl enters and is greeted by being hit with the half-eaten apple.

Minnie: Wal, I guess yass, bein' that you're comin', he will. Say, didn't some- body say that Bess Perkins was a'comin' home from that boardin' school 0' hers an' that they were goin' to have a party to celebrate her home-comini, or whatever ya call ut? Ann: Yes, but I don't expect that the party will be of much account and, moreover, I' don't think that ,lack and I will be invited. Jack will be one of the first to know when she comes, being that he is head of the Bank and Post-office and the depot is only across the street. When he tells me, I'll tell you. Minnie: Gee! that'll be line, We'll know it a'fore anybody else. 'Pears to me as tho' my maw oughta be a comin' soon, 'cause it'll take some time to decorate this barn up.

She just came home today on the l0:05. I was speaking to her and she said that she was going away the day after tomorrow to spend her vacation with a chum. She had the invitations all printed in the city, and she said that her mother had the affair all arranged. She asked me to play post-man and deliver the invites. I met your mother and Mrs. I-Iobb and Mrs. Hollister and gave them theirs. I have about forty-five more to give out. Do you want to help me? Minnie fopens letter and reads itjz A party tonight?

SCENE II The curtain rises on what happens to be the garden in front of the I-lollister house. The barn is seen in the background. Silas Hollister is sitting on a bench at the bottom of the stairs, smoking a pipe. From the reflections of the lights, it appears to be about 7 o'clock in the evening. Mr. Hallister.'

Silas keeps smoking his pipe and waits, occasionally taking out his watch. Finally he saysjz Nine o,clockl My friends don't 'pear to be a' comin'. I wonder what that Perkins' party is goin' to be like? I think I'll take a run over and see, but you know, I won't go in. Cl-le leaves the stage in the same direction as the others did.J CURTAIN Th irly-six SEE AMERICA FIRST A trip across the continent and return, by auto, is most enjoyable and truly the only way to see the country. We took such a trip, with three months en route, nine months in New York City, and four months returning to San Francisco, We camped considerably, as we found stopping at hotels more or less of a nuisance, for all one's equipment is taken into the garage, and one is much inconvenienced when some article is wanted from the machine. Some of the camp sites were nicely enough set up to stop for a day or two, but when we wished to stay longer at any place, we generally took a furnished apartment where our auto was easy of access. The roads, of course, are good and bad, but detours as a rule are miserable: as bad in fact as crossing the desert, for even there a good road is often encountered. This is especially so where the railroad bed has been abandoned. Our first stopping place after a harrowing day on the desert through a heavy sand- storm was a timely shelter afforded us by a couple of young cow-boys who were living in an old ranch house, where true hospitality was shown with such cordiality that we remained for three days through a steady rain-storm. Another experience we shall never forget was a thunder-storm such as we hope never again to encounter, and which happened just after driving through fifty miles of the most wonderful gorge country imaginable. This was in beautiful Colorado where we saw double rain-bows, heard thunder so close it struck instantaneously with the lightning, drove over the Monarch of the Rockies, some ll,400 feet, the highest motor pass in the worldg visited a banner movie where every other scene flashed on the screen is an advertisement, drove to the bottom as well as the top of the Royal Gorge, and went to the summit of Pike's Peak via the Cog Railroad. Manitou, at the foot of Pike's Peak, is very interesting with its Cliff Dwellers, Garden of the Gods, and its Seven Falls. This resort, in former years more popularly known as Colo- rado Springs, is still famous for its numerous fountains of various mineral waters. After Colorado, we traveled over rather barren looking country where the wheat had already been cut. From Kansas on, corn was very plentiful. Our itinerary included Missouri with its typical southern homes, Illinois, where we almost lost our tent in a terrific storm and cloud-burst: Indiana with its Vincennes of old on the banks of the Wabash, West Baden, the Carlsbad of America, and French Lick, the Home of Pluto Water g Kentucky with its famous blue-grass and purple mountains: and Ohio with the Veteranls home at Dayton and the capitol at Columbus. At Philadelphia we visited a number of historic landmarks such as old Congress or Independence Hall, the country's first capitol, the home of Betsy Ross and the birthplace of our Nation's flag: the home of William Penn, removed from its original site in the present warehouse district to beautiful Fairmount Park, largest park in the United States. From there it is not far to Gettysburg, where we put in a very busy day about the battlefields and National Cemetery, in a -:lrenching rain. We even located the monument erected in honor of our own soldiers, thu the regiment was really in conjunction with Pennsylvania soldiers as California could not fill the required quota. An interesting hour was spent in viewing relics and hearing the story of Jenny Wade, the only citizen of Gettysburg killed during the war. An odd souvenir of Gettysburg was an original bullet with an inset of the battlefields. Leaving Maryland with its beautiful scenery and old towns such as Cumberland and Hagerstown, we reached Washington, D. C. We were much taken up with Washing- ton with its many interesting buildings-as the Congressional Library, Washington monument, 550 feet in height, War and Navy Department, I..ithographer's and Printer's Building, Fordham Theatre fnow a warehousej, the scene of Lincoln's assassination, and things too numerous to mentiong to say nothing of the White House and Capitol, from the tower of which we were allowed to take pictures by special permit, Then the outlying attractions such as Mt. Vernon and Washingtonls tomb on the shores of the Thirty-seven beautiful Potomac, the National Cemetery at Arlington, the Naval Observatory, Zoo- logical and Botanical Gardens, and the Smithsonian Institute, where are encased wax Hgures of each succeeding lady of the land from Martha Washington to the late Mrs. Wilson. These figures are life-sized and gowned in the original costumes worn at each inaugural ball. Two busy weeks here is almost insufhcient to do this wonderful city full justice. Of New York City I cannot here go into detail as that is a complete story in itself, but I will say it certainly is the place to give you the fullest measure of enjoyment. I wouldn't have missed a term in one of the New York high schools for anything-they are so much larger and more crowded than ours. I took the L every morning and then had to take an elevator down five stories to reach the sidewalk at One-hundred-and-sim teenth Street. After three attempts we finally did tear ourselves away from New York. We traveled on to Boston Post Road via Providence and New I-Iaven, where we visited Yale University: later on we visited Harvard, which we liked better. The famously crooked town of Boston is the most unprogressive city we were ever in, tho in many in- stances this fact can be looked upon as a preserver of historical landmarks such as the Old State I-louse, Faneuil I-Iall, Parker House, Paul Revere's old home, and many others. Bunker Hill at Charlestown, Cambridge, Sleepy I-Iollow Cemetery with its graves of Longfellow, Hawthorne, Louise Alcott and other noted authors, the battlefields of Lexington and Concord, where was built the normal school of America and where the first stand was made by the Minute Men against British aggression, and the old Wright Tavern where Major Pitcairn, while stirring his toddy, swore to be stirring the blood of the damned America Yankees before nightfall-all and much more of which is remark- ably fascinating. A trip up the Atlantic by steamer, to Portland, Maine, and return, was a refreshing diversion: and a tour of the Berkshires, Green Mountains and Adirondacks, was all inspiring. After leaving New York we traveled over twelve hundred miles, in a circuitous route, and found ourselves again within a hundred miles of that metropolis of the East. And alas, we were ready for our return journey. -HELENE SCHWARZ, Dec., '22, ttf JUNE June is advancing in glory, All the birds her coming foretell: They chatter and chirp the glad story, As the flowers awake in the dell. The trees brightly nod as June passes, Her coming brings gladness to all: The daisies that brighten the meadows, All list for her dainty foot-fall. She smiles on the brooklet, and bids it Dance on in its care-free way. The brook, filled with pride, ripples softly, In manner so blithesome and gay. We welcome you, joy-bringing June-time, With your robes of purple and gold, All nature is filled with your spirit, And a place in all hearts do you hold. -ELSA KRAEGER. Thirty-eight A SCHOOL DILEIVIMA Freckles Dodge's voice, changing, contained a whoop that came into his conversation like the back-fire of an automobile. He was fourteen, but as Nature had neglected his growth, so far, he was half a head shorter than most boys of his age. His friends called him uhrecklesn because no one who looked at him could call him anything else. His face was just covered with the little brown spots. Outwardly Freckles was good. With his studious, shy, respectful air, liquid grey eyes, he looked good. No one who ever saw him pass ever said, Just look at that bad, wild savage boy. He ought to be locked up. He was a high school Hsophn and recog- nized by the rest of the pupils as the star of scholars. But goodness meant slavery to him. He had no real chum, No gang of boys congregated in front of his house and whistled for him. On Hallowe'en nights and similar occasions he was locked up. 'He was not allowed to join the Boy Scouts for fear it might make him rough. He was never permitted to do what other boys did and had to be satisfied by watching them. And when he pleaded with his father he was always told, Boys shouldnlt go out after darkf, Yes, he had been compelled to waste his years in slavery and this morning as he waited for the car he thought of killing himself. Say, Freckles, why didn't ya stick around after school last night like I tol' ya to? Milky Mccreery was a slender junior with a hoarse voice, crimson cheeks, and white brows and eye lashes. Milky had come down a side street at Freckles' back, and Freckles had not discovered him until he spoke. UAW, protested Freckles, I couldnit stay. Well, you're going home before noon. Havenit ya heard the news? What we did after school? No, l've seen no one to get the newsf' We're going to strike. We held a meetin' yesterday and about four hundred of us lined up and all the 'profs' heard us too, from Ol' Lampson down. When the last bell rings today, we don't go in-see? And we'll see to it that no one else goes in-see? Freckles stared up into the face of the fearless mutineer. What ya rubberin' at? Donit ya think we're gonna do it? Ya gotta come out flat and say which side you're on, savvy? Freckles did. He knew that Milky was not deceiving him. The School Board had, last Monday, passed a resolution extending the afternoon session to four-thirty. Every- body was indignant. It would be after dark when school was dismissed. Even most of the instructors were against the new order, while some eighteen hundred pupils fumed and raged-all except Freckles, mother, who said it would keep the boys off the street that much longer. Well, what ya gonna do? asked Milky impatiently. Aw I-my mother won't let me strike. I would if l could. you bet. What's your mother got to do with it? asked Milky contemptuously. You're the man l'm talking to, not her, Take it from me, if you don't line up with the strikers, you're liable to get your head busted. l'm telling ya for your own good --see? U Freckles saw. Milky fished a ticket from his pocket. The car was coming. Ya got the ride to school to think it over. The long, red ghost of the high school building fading away into misery was a pestilence in the morning fog, the campus was a bleak, barren wasteg behind the spire of the church across the street the sun was a jaundiced blear as Freckles and Milky alighted from the car. It was early-eight o'clock. Usually at that time only a pupil or two could he seen, Thirty-nine but now it seemed that the whole nine hundred of the morning session were thronging the different paths. At a near corner a squad of Senior boys were barring the way to a couple of Freshman girls. The high school grounds occupied an entire block, but on the other corners Freckles could see another squad at work. Moreover, each entrance appeared to have its particular detail. Freckles' eyes were big and he was seeing. Well, demanded Milky, what ya gonna do? Freckles didn't know what in the wide world to do. Milky gripped his shoulders and pushed him through a crowd of girls where he placed him on the carpet before Shultzy, who was eighteen, six feet high, the football coach and a lot of other things. Whatcha botherin' with him for? snarled Shultzy at Milky while looking at Freckles. Nl-lere comes l..ampson, hissed several voices. Lampson was principal. A car had just dropped him at the corner. Freckles, forgotten, was jostled toward the curb. Lampson was approaching with the deliberate tread of one who was chief justice of the last-resort court. l-le was about fifty years old, short and stocky. His square, sallow face was afrown, his blue eyes cold and fastened upon the crowd. l-le had the firm, set look of one who is about to drown a litter of kittens. Don't block the sidewalk this wayln he exclaimed. Shultzy stepped out, You can't go in, professor, until you agree to have that resolution rescinded. l'm sorry to have to do this, but there'll be no school until you agree. Lampson burst into a laugh. He made a move to brush Shultzy aside. But Shultzy wouldn't brush. Shultzy offered him the alternative of climbing over six feet of muscle or staying where he was. You can't handle us this way, professorf' warned Shultzy. You'd better take it up with the superintendent and president. It's the only way out. Four o'clock or nothing. I order you people off the street and into the school, thundered Lampson. No one moved. The principal looked around. l-le spied Freckles. Herbert Dodge, you a striker? cried the principal. Yes, sir, shouted Milky for the benefit of all. Even Freckles strikes. Why sh0uldn't he? The crowd was thickening. Strikers, neutrals and pedestrians were hurrying to the scene from every quarter. Lampson knew that he could never get through that crowd. l-le bit his lip for a moment and then in a flash vaulted the iron fence and bounded away over the lawns for the building. With yells the boys flowed over the fence in pursuit. Eight or ten of the professors who had gotten to school before the strikers had arrived, sallied out to the rescue. After a short but harmless melee the faculty retreated into the building and slammed the doors shut. A mob of three or four hundred, well spiced with girls, howled outside the building until some one threw a brick through one of the big windows. Then the crowd started a general assault upon all of the windows. And the demon, the one who had hurled the brick, was-Freckles. Cut that rough stuff, shouted Shultzy. It'1l lick us. But Freckles had no idea of quitting. When Shultzy started toward him with doubled-up fists, Freckles swung his books, which were in a strap, and by chance the blow landed full in Shultzyis face. l-le went down. The crowd yelled and pushed for a moment. Shultzy sat up. Nail him, he shouted to some Seniors. Freckles went down trying to fight off his assailants. ul-land him right over to Lamp- son. lt's our only hope. The principal's office, in its erstwhile stufhness, had been transformed by Freckles' brick into the temperature of a sleeping porch. The brick had barely missed Lampson, who was humped down by the phone, fairly shouting, ul tell you it's revolution. What they Forty need is your promise to rescind that resolution. You'll have to come over immediately or the school will be a wreck, Some of the windows are broken nowf' The president gave his promise and hung up. The mob was moving toward the building. ln Shultzy's arms was Freckles. l-le was dumb. Who's the guy in the car? yelled some one. uIt's the President of the Board, announced Shultzy, Come on. Take Freckles to him. It's our only hopef, Let Freckles go up and take the blame for the window by himself, exclaimed Milky. Who is runnin' this strike?', questioned Shultzy. There was a momentls hush as they all stood looking at the car that had stopped at the curb. Are you afraid, Freckles? asked Milky. No, why should I? said he, VVatch me. In front of the building were herds of Freshmen, mostly girls. The president could be seen moving among these, asking questions. Then he moved to the top of the steps. Freckles followed him unflinchingly, while the crowd came after. Suddenly Freckles whooped, I threw that brick. I started it. The president looked down on him. iiwhat is your name?H he asked. Herbert Dodgef' he responded. iiwhy did you throw the brick? was the next question. Freckles was tongue-tied. His head hung low on his chest. l-le had looked at the crowd on the steps below him, l-le was smitten with stage fright. Well, sir, exclaimed the president, Hyour father will have to pay for every cent of the damagef, This was just what Freckles needed to bring him to. Ml won't pay for that window, he blurted out. The audience opened mouths and eyes. The president stiffened angrily. Freckles had trembled a lot when he spoke. Oh, you wori't, smiled the president. His grey eyes were death warrants, his words a harpoon. Then he added, Let me see-who broke that window? Yah-you didlu lVle? ejaculated the president astounded out of his grammar and almost his shoes. Yes, sir, you had that resolution passed, and that's what made me throw it. The mob packed closer toward the steps. Could that be Freckles, the quiet, good Freckles? The president made no answer. No, l won't pay and nobody else will either. Freckles' voice was growing stronger now. You-the Board'll pay for it. This is a strike and the window's a part of the strike. And-and if we don't get our four o'clock back we'll strike some more, The mob cheered. Why didn't the president reach down and seize that frail little body standing before him and shake him? Because the true politician instinct came to him that in ten to twenty years these people standing before him would be citizens with whom he would have to reckon for this day. The president raised his hand for silence, lf I promise to see that the resolution is withdrawn, will you call off the strike and go peaceably back to your studies? he asked. The response hung back. Everyone seemed to be waiting for someone else to talk first. Freckles was the first to speak. uBut we mustn't be made to pay for anything, he whooped, Forty-one No--no! We'll forget and forgive. As the crowd started to go into the building the president shook the hand of the leader -Freckles. Then the triumphant Freckles was carried into the building on the shoulders of a crowd of Seniors. -GUSTAVE ADAMS, '23. ttf ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL A beautiful young girl and an elderly woman were the only occupants of the small unfurnished room. They seemed to be greatly agitated and started in terror at the least sound. The young girl began to weep softly and the woman tried in vain to comfort her. Oh! grandma, she cried, I know he will beat me again. l-le promised to get even with me if I told the police the truth about that dreadful murder. Don't cry, honey, said her grandmother as her eyes traveled sympathetically from the girl's roughly bandaged arm to a deep gash on her lovely cheek, which told a story of abuse. I'll kill him if he dares to hurt you again, she added with firmness. Both women started as heavy foot-steps were heard ascending the stairs. Save me from Dad, cried the young girl as she gazed wildly about the room in search of means of escape. Don't worry, dear, cried the old woman as she gently but firmly pushed her grand- daughter into a closet, which adjoined the room, and shut the door. God help him if he dares to lay a hand on her again, she muttered threateningly. The door was kicked open and a huge bully of a man half-staggered into the room. This newcomer was all that a brute is. Tall and powerful, he would have been hand- some had not an ugly expression been stamped indelibly upon his irate countenance. Say, ma, where's that kid? I must settle up accounts with her, he shouted as he strode rather dizzily across the room. ul know nothing about her, answered his mother. Don't tell me that,,' he cried, and was about to strike her when the closet door was opened and the young girl stepped into the room. Calmly and with her beautiful head held high, she advanced toward her father saying in a clear melodious voice: Hit me if you must, but please spare your dear old mother. You just bet I'll hit you and you'll be lucky to get off with that, he exclaimed as he sprang at her like a ferocious beast about to destroy his helpless prey, The girl lifted her large eyes, which had a hint of that violet hue so often attributed to heroines of fiction, and mutely implored him to spare her. He heeded her not. You will squeal on the crowd, will you? I'1l teach you better, he cried. The lovely, helpless girl crouched in the corner and tried to protect her bandaged arm. Would he strike her? It seemed so, for he raised one of his massive arms and was about to deliver a heavy blow upon the helpless girl's head when a shot rang out in the little room! But-what was that? A whistle. shrill and clear, announced to the motion-picture folk that their lunch-hour had arrived. Report again at l :30 to take the final scenes, said the director as the young girl, the elderly lady, and the powerful-looking man went happily from the land of make- believe to the land of plain facts for their hard-earned and long-desired luncheon. -Aucrs PYNE, June, '24, Forty-Iwo A BIT OF NONSENSE There is a great deal in being fore-handed. Mother was that way. Every Saturday we used to have salt fish for dinner, so she would not be bothered getting up anything to eat on baking day, That sounds like a paradox, but it wasn'tg it was a shame, for the baking was very appetizing and savory, while the fish was-well. not so savory. Now, when you wanted salt fish for Saturday, you had to begin way back in the Week somewhere. Tuesday was a good day because there wasn't anything to do Con top of the regular choresj excepting the ironing, and you had a chance to think, Follow me carefully-you know how long it is from Tuesday before Saturday comes around? Ytvell, mother used to plan ahead of times, foreseeing she was going to be heated and tired, and all ufustn up with cooking formulas, and would need an accommodating viand for dinner that she could slap down anywhere, without hurting it, and tell us children to hop to it. On Tuesday she commenced deodorizing the fish. You see, while the fish abode with the grocer, it was always picking up scents like coffee, spices, matches, kerosene and gasoline, from the clerk's habit of wiping his hands on it in passing. But what you would call the basic flavor was imparted by Tabby, the store cat. The pile of cod fish was the place where the cat slept and took her bath fthe kind of dry cleaning the cat calls a bathlg also her refuge from the yellow stray dogs-or ambush, according to whether she could lick the dog or not. The result was, you couldn't say the cat smelt fishy or the fish catty, but they smelt alike. It was a blend, like this fancy-named toilet water you have to have pronounced for you, ''eau-de-something-or-other. If you just wanted the fish for a smelling fish, it was all right as it was. But when you wanted to use it for an eating fish, you had to go to work and separate the fish from the odor part, or as much of it as you could. It wasnit difficult or laborious, but it took timeg that's why you had to be fore-handed. You put the fish into a good stout pan-a pan that wasn,t particular with whom it associated-and covered it with common ordinary water. The water did not stay pure and chaste very long. In a few hours it was the most uncommon water, yelling to heaven and casting into the air bunches of assorted per- fumes, like springtime tripping o'er the lea, and scattering flowersfl mean the operation was the same and not the raw material. When one dose of water had suffered about enough you poured it off and renewed it, and so on. If you tended rightly to your business through Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs- day, Friday, and Saturday morning, by Saturday noon there was your fish-transformed into a regular eating fishfat least those who had to eat it could. That's how you had to plan meals in those days, no gossiping away your time at pink teas till the last minute, and then tossing on a preserved pig's foot for dinner. -CLARENCE JENSEN, 'ZZ. Forty-three MON ENFANCE Un jour, assise au soleil, je pensais il non enfance. Je me revoyais at Lau- rance, dans les basses Pyrenees. Je pouvais voir dans ee petit village notre maison, si jolie, situee sur une belle etenclue de terrain. La, prenant sa course a travers le jardin rempli de Heurs et dyarhres serpentait un petit ruisseaug bien souvent j' y etais tombee pour en etre retiree, trempee et sanglotante. La maison se trouvait au milieu d'une eour pavee, entouree d'une muraille ou je m'asseyais le soir pour ecouter un homme jouer son Cornet. Que je regrette ces jours-la, si plein de joie, ou je n'avais aucun soueie, aueune pensee que de m'amuser toute la journee! Mes souvenirs tournent vers les jours dlhiver, jours si differents que ceux de notre California. La terre etait couverte cle neige, le petit ruisseau gros- sissait enormement et la riviere qui traversait le Village devenait un torrent sauvage et tumultueux. Mais tant que la neige clurait, les enfants se rejouis- saient. jouer aux boules cle rieige et patiner,-voila des joies qui ne sioulilient jamais.

Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his graspf, With wistful backward gaze we see The swift receding pageantry Of days that came with outstretched hands Across the world from fairy lands To thy divine enchanting bower, With gifts of life and joy and power, Beyond our taking. And as we wave our last farewell To them and thee, we cannot tell The half our bosoms bid us say. As, mute with love, which bids us stay, We turn to that far-shining dawn, Which ever beckons on and on, Beyond our taking. BROWNINC.. ABENJAMIN XVEI-LD. Forty-five STAFF OF THE MISSION MARION C.

Are we frightened? No, hardly that. But we are filled with vagueness and doubt: doubt as to whether we are prepared for such a responsibility, Now that high school days must soon be added to the countless thousands of others in the cradle of Time which one calls the past, we fail to see a single virtue that we might possess. For four, long years, which now seem as one. we strode the halls of our Alma Mater with the self-satisfied air of ones who knew-it-all. Nothing phased us, for of all people, we considered ourselves by far the most brilliant and superior. We were a precocious class-in our own estimation. If teachers criticised us, we felt indignantfa feeling which was externally expressed and visibly apparent. It was beyond our poor power of conception to even imagine ourselves worthy of reprimand. But those sad days are gone-yes, forever gone. We now realize our dignified unim- portance, our profound ignorance of things we should know, And right here we may stop: our despairing search for some value of our high school training ceases. We have found one good quality. We have discovered a oneness of conviction within ourselves, and it is with all the detestable pride of youth that we, the Senior Class, modestly admit that we have reached the highest peak of privileged honor-in being able to truthfully say that we realize the painful insignificance of our own importance, and that, quite contrary to our previous belief, our education, instead of being nearly complete, has just begun- the educa- tion of meeting the world on its own level, judging for ourselves, and discriminating between right and wrong.

Unaware of its approaching doom, the old Mission building stood calm, collected and apparently undis- turbed, while way down deep in its heart a little spark burst quickly into flame-then faltered a moment, as though calling for help. Almost immediately its unmistakable pleadings were answered, and a cold wintry wind growled angrily as it tore its unwelcome way into every nook and corner of our high school home. Before long that tiny spark had grown into a sweeping torrent of flames which thrust its unkempt tentacles high into the night air, devouring all within reach and repulsing, with little effort, man's utmost attempts to control them. For seemingly endless hours it raged on ravenously consuming every atom of flammable substance. When the smoke finally cleared and we could see, at last, the life- less shape of our Alma Mater vaguely outlined against the grey sky, an impressive silence filled the air, as there before us lay the ruins of an almost mortal friend, who had been forced to bow her head to the havoc of fire and leave us homeless. A distressing picture it was. The traffic so much in evidence earlier in the evening was no more, the grumbling con- sonance of fire-fighting was stilled. There was no sound, only suddenly, as though to accentuate the silence, a distant church bell tolled the hour. Then a street-car rumbled, rattled and was gone. A stillness, sudden and palpable, dropped down and spread in the air. Then a silent, world-weary moon peered cautiously from behind a silken cloud and wrapped the earth in a silvery shawl of somber rays whose delicate hues cast themselves reluctantly upon the ruins before us, and transformed them into an elaborate portrait of gorgeous beauty. How strange was natureg The peaceful moon did not know that it was there, or that it was so majestically beautiful, but still it shone on, and the picture of exquisite magnificence was one that could be rivaled only by a duplication of itself. Blobs of soft light freckled the charred embers of the drooping skeleton that crouched before our eyes, and the last pink glows of firelight, from within, flickered and sank --flickered and sank, lazilyeand gleamed in the many dark holes, making them look for all the world, like multitudes of dark, incomprehensible eyes glowering down at us from a clouded sky, Near the center of the fire-swept mass, a tall thin shadow, darker than the rest, towered haughtily, far above the surrounding outlines, as though significant of that worldly quality-- pride. And there, to the left, a little puff of thick white smoke rose suddenly and drifted softly into the cold night air, reminding one that some traces of the pyro-technic maniac still remained active. As we stood listening and dreaming, the watching hills resounded, as the air stirred quietly through the night, with a faint murmuring music, as though some phantom voice were humming peaceful words of prayer. With the absent arrival of dawn, the shapeless bulk of our ruined home took form momentarily, and a blue sky lit by the morning sun flashed a deep felt sorrow overhead: a worldly realization of material destruction, Our old high school home is no more. Those gladdening walls have moldered to dust from our sightg and yet there remains -and forever shall remain--as a golden memory, the picture we saw, on the morning of January twentieth, last, as she lifted her ashen face to the blue pitiless sky. We salute thy noble greatness, Mission! We have shared your ruin, felt your sorrow and gloried in your success. Your name may have a melancholy cadence to those who have known you only in days of disaster, but we who love you know that beneath those convulsions of ruin beats the warm heart of a great immortal personality-the spirit of our Alma Mater.

We had been waiting a long time for a new building. We saw it in the distance and bent-our efforts towards it, but the passing years seemed to bring us no nearer. Then in August, l9l9, Wm. Drew joined forces with us, and we began to see the distance lessen. Combining his knowledge of building construction with his technical training and scholastic experience in high-school work, Mr. Drew in conjunction with City Architect John Reid, Jr., drew up a set of plans. They pleased us, the Board of Education liked them, the Supervisors thought well of them, and the people said, All right, go ahead. Mayor Rolph brought out a steam shovel on November 30, l92l, and started the Church Street unit of a new building designed ultimately to cover the space from Church Street to Dolores Street. Everything was progressing satisfactorily, when on January l9, l922, the fire des- troyed the old building that has been the outward and visible symbol of Mission High School since I897, We were all sorry to see the old building go, though it seemed to some of us that the Spirit of Progress anticipating the years, had removed it to make way for the new. Since the fire we have been housed in the old wooden annex, in tents, and in the Swed- ish Tabernacle, and in the Norwegian Church. We have been separated, some of us com- ing in the morning, the remainder in the afternoon. But we are all here and glad we are here. Nevertheless, we are anxious to get into our old stride all together, and all at the same time. This requires a new building. Again things are shaping themselves aright. We are to have a temporary building erected in Mission Park, just across Eighteenth Street from the school, which with the old wooden annex, will afford enough room for the present needs. It is hoped that this temporary building will be ready by August, in time for the open- ing of the school next term. The Church Street unit, which is to be devoted in the main to manual training, a new Mission activity, and so will not noticeably relieve the pressure for more academic class rooms, will probably be completed by January, 1923. It is hoped that by 1923 the City will be in a position to provide funds for the com- pletion of the permanent building of which the Church Street unit is the beginning. In I9Z4, the school, 2000 strong, should be assembled under one roof. Mission High School will then have a building with l0O class rooms. It will be modern: it will be economically adjusted to the teaching requirements of a great high school. The Mission requires it and should have it. The splendid cooperation we are receiving for everybody in our efforts to rebuild Mis- sion High School as it should be rebuilt, is a good indication of the esteem in which the school is held by the community. We thank all who are helping. F i fly-three x :. ..im,,.l,, :UW-y, n gc J . 12' fe!

But it did not discourage the enthusiasm of the Club's members. At the beginning of the semester, a new group of ofhcers were elected: President, john Shelley: Vice-President, Margaret Crowley: Secretary, Verna Anderson: Treasurer, Carl Jones. The new administration has kept things alive and added many new names to the Club's roll. Several plays were typewritten and made part of the Dramatic Club's library. Among these were: Why the Chimes Rang Outh: One Summer Day, and Uncle Jimmy. Vivian Penninger was appointed librarian, A After an interesting series of try-outs, a new and capable cast was chosen for Uncle Jimmy. This amusing study of rural types, written by Zona Gale, authoress of Miss Lulu Betts, has been rehearsed and may be played before the end of the term. Watch the Dramatic Club next term! iii CAMERA CLUB FRANK WURTHINGTON President The Camera Club is the school's newest organization. Considerable interest has been evidenced by the members. Already we have accomplished quite a few things. We have equipped a dark room, developed and printed school pictures and arranged a series of talks. Our officers are: President, Frank Worthington: Vice-President, Henry Odermattg Secretary, Vera Moliisg Treasurer, Claire McPhillipsg Faculty Advisors, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Smith. Sixty Li-T g-.- ........ a Sixty-one MAJoiz W. S. OVERTON Professor of MILITARY SCIENCE AND TACTICS San Francisco High Schools R. O. T. C. The past semester has been one full of interest to the members of the R. O. T. C. On Saturday, January Zl, Walter C. Rogers, Captain of Cavalry, United States Army, was installed in the office of Professor of Military Science and Tactics at Missiong Captain Rogers succeeds Captain Grissell, who was transferred to Galileo l-ligh School. On the same day, the warrants and commissions were presented to the deserving mem- bers of the R, O. T, C. T During the first two weeks of school, the R. O. T. C. did not hold any drills. The cadets were engaged in the task of salvaging school property and in performing guard detail. On Wednesday, May 8, the battalion was inspected and reviewed by Brigadier- General Wittenmeyer, Chief of Staff, Ninth Corps Area: Colonel Falls, Major Overton, Captain Rogers, and Captain Flood. The excellent drills and formation work elicited words of warm praise from our distinguished guest. The Mission High School Battalion is now the proud possessor of two beautiful national emblems, one Hag the gift of Major Overton, and the other the gift of the Mission Savings Bank. These flags replace those destroyed by the fire. On May Day, a platoon of four squads was entered in the Annual May Day Com- petitive Drill in Golden Gate Park. Although securing third place, the platoon acquitted itself remarkably well. Perhaps the most momentous event this semester took place on Decoration Day. With fitting military ceremonies, the entire R. O. T. C. organizations participated in the national honoring of the soldier dead. i Sixty-two L A W I S ixly-three i: ,N -E sl f 7 '7 -7 5-' .2 J L: rg? zz: .'7-V, -42 .221 Z Lx 1 v :Z , ,-f fv Zi I'-s be SHOOTING fi Pc. .

This aim has been strictly adhered to and has been found highly beneficial. The officers of this organization are elected by popular vote without regard to rank. All members are on an equal basis. In the following of our aim We have done much in making a greater and more polished corps, a unit which Mission can hold second to none in the city. The evil of dismembering our unit and school, due to the destruction of our home, has been conquered and we are again in the foreground as previous to this disaster. The ofhcers for the present term are: President, Theo.

Through the efforts of Mr. Owen, head of the Music Department, and Mr. Kennedy, who was appointed by the Board of Education to aid in the work of organization and instruction, a band has been organized of which we can justly be proud. On April 6, the band led the march from the school to the site of the review of the Marshal Joffre parade at the Civic Center. The band has performed a great service during all reviews, drills, and ceremonies, for the essential factor, the military atmosphere, is admirably created. The students of Mission High are earnestly requested to support Mr. Owen and Mr. Kennedy by enroll- ing in our band. The rare opportunity of learning to play upon a musical instrument awaits those who are interested. The Drum Corps, which is closely associated with the band, is another important unit of the R. O. T. C. This corps has attracted wide attention, for it was the the Mission High Drum Corps that was selected to play at the May Day Drills in Golden Gate Park. More success to our band organizations! wif ORCHESTRA Although greatly handicapped by the fire, the orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Owen, has progressed remarkably. That this organization has been appreciated is evi- denced by the fact that they have been well received not only at the school assemblies, but also at the meetings of the Parent-Teachers' Association. At present they are working hard to make the commencement musical program a success. The orchestra, which now consists of thirty-six pieces, has as its concert leader, Miss Nettie Ballen, June, '22.

F. A. L. meet the junior Division took fourth place while the Unlimited Team took fifth. The star of the junior Track Team was Vernon Mason, who broke the S. F. A. L. 50 yard dash record and tied the S. F. A. L. l00 yard record in the l00 lb. class. Ben Lom surprised everyone by taking first place in the 130 lb. high jump. Gordon Diehl, although not in good form, took second place in the shotput. Fogarty took third place in the I30 lb. high jump. The I l0 lb. Relay Team, consisting of Williams, Kidd, Barry, and Edlin, took fourth place, making a total of 22 points. In the Unlimited Class Donohue and Mancuso were the stars. Donohue ran one of the prettiest races of the season and took second in the 880 yard. Mancuso took third in the l00 yard and second in the 220 yard. Other point winners were Buchignani, who took second in the shot, Ferroggiaro who took third, and D. Hamilton who placed fourth in the discus throw. Pence tied for fourth in the pole vault. There were other meets but the most important of those was the Commerce-Mission meet. Mission's Unlimited beat Commercels Unlimited 22 points: the score being Mission 72, Commerce 50. f N' , In the Commerce junior meet one or two of the fellows did not show up and we were just nosed out by one-third of a point, the final score being Commerce 6825 and Mission 68,15 . Our aim now is to win the S. F. A. L. meet. We can do it and we will, if the school will show the proper interest in Track. With stars such as Mason, Lom, Diehl, and Fogarty in the weights, and Hamilton, Ferroggiaro, Donohue, Leimbach and Pence in the Unlimited, we have some wonderful prospects for next year. When the fellows learn the value of prac- tice so that the school can turn out a big squad, then we can aim for the track championship. Sevcnly-one f I Seventy-t wo 'CIIAMPIONSHIPM BASEBALL TEAM 1022 E 9 U 3 gr a fMzxn BASEBALL The major sport of the Spring term is Baseball, for many years it has been Mission's most popular pastime. When the call for the first practice was announced a large assortment of high class material presented itself to Mr. Chase, the baseball coach. There was an abundance of veterans from last year to help build a championship team. Mr. Chase. believing in lots of seasoning, procured practice games with several strong teams. Our first practice game was with Berkeley High, whom we defeated without much trouble. San Mateo and Tamalpais also fell before our mighty sluggers. Next came a game with the California Freshmen, this game was a hard fought contest throughout, but we finally lost after seven innings of scoreless ball. The first S. F. A. L. game was with Lickg Mission easily won to the tune of 5-2. The next game was with Sacred Heart, and through errors and a slump in hitting, we lost our only league game. Next came the Commerce game with the blue and white looming up as a real stumbling block in our dash for the pennant, but we eliminated them by a dash of big league hitting and classy fielding. ln quick succession we defeated Lowell 9-2 and Gallileo 28-2 and got ourselves in position to tie for first place by a win over Poly. Poly came on the field almost counting the game in their percentage column but they reckoned without Gene Hollister our twirler. The game was one of the best exhibitions of high school ball in years. We beat the Sunset players by a score of 4-0 through tight pitching, errorless fielding and timely hitting. We were now tied with Poly for first place and the championship game was set for Monday, june 5. The Mission rooters turned out en masse and gave a wonderful piece of support and encouragement to their team. Hollister was at his best and held the opposing batsmen to nine hits striking out nine of their best batters. Our boys certainly were a credit to the Brown and Gold: they played wonderful baseball and did not make an error. The final score was 7 to 3--and Mission had annexed another championship to her string! Some of the sidelights on our team: McDonald was a steady catcher. jim also piloted our team, and there was not a better leader in the league. He was Hollister's helper. With his knowledge of the opposing teams' weaknesses, Rosy Hollister proved to be the peer of High School pitchers, with a wonderful assortment of curves, a baffling change of pace, and a real baseball head. Everett Pence stepped in at first base after several men were tried and turned out to be the sensation of the league. His baseball nick name of Wreck-'em-Pence speaks for l'1iS ability at the bat. Joe Sheean handled the plays at second base in faultless style and was a mean man at the plate. Joe Cronin was the star short--stop of the league, with his great handling of all manner of hits through his position. Berger at third was the Babe Ruth of the league with his husky clouts and consistent fielding. Tejeda and Dougherty played an errorless game in the fieldg Dougherty, especially, being a terror to opposing players. Dolan, not as clever a fielder, made up for his field work by heavy hitting. Schmale alternated with Dolan and was always more than safe in handling the long hits. Gallagher stepped in at different places in the lineup, when needed, as utility man, Mitchell, the sub second-baseman, shows promise of being a regular next season. Lyons and Anderson played in several games in a highly satisfactory fashion. Bill Cooke, the manager, could lay aside his schedules and records and step into the lineup in a mighty substantial manner, All the men will be back again next year so we can look forward to another great base- ball year. The practice and training has been above reproach and the coaching of Mr. Chase has put them above their natural class. Captain Flood loaned a helping hand to Mr. Chase and proved himself a real Missionite. Immediately after the Poly game Rosy Hollister was elected Captain, and Bill Cooke manager of next year's team, insuring capable leadership for I923. Sevenly-ihree 130 LB. BASKETBALL TEAM Diem.

Although the team lost to Sacred Heart 25 to 15, and to Lick 35 to 20, it succeeded in defeating Cogswell by the score of 21 to 10. Cronin, captain of the 130 lb. team was noted for his pep and clever- ness in all games, showing the fight and dash of a true Missionite. Calhoun was a consistent point getter for Mission. Manion could always be counted on to shoot a basket when under the goal. Lom, although the smallest man on the team, was full of pep and could dart through openings in the opposing defense proving a hard man to cover. Diehl was one of the steadiest guards on the team, being the mainstay of lVlission's defense. Strudlowski played very good for the first time on the team and is a good prospect for next year. Broyer and Moran were noted for their hard fighting tactics, in addition to a more than average amount of basketball cleverness. Watson was the clever running guard of the team, showing ability as an all round man. Seventy-four 145 LB. IiASKE'l'l5Al,I.

The cause of the poor showing this season is attributed to the fact that several of the players were taken ill just at the commencement of the S. F. A. L. tournaments. But regardless of this serious handicap, the improvised team did not forfeit a game, The schedule was played, but Mission did not succeed in capturing a single victory.

This team reached the semi-finals in the S. F. A. L. tournament by defeating Cogswell 29 to 23. Then defeat was cleverly administered to Sacred Heart, the score being 3I to l3. The semi-finals game was played against St, Ignatius. After leading I0 to 4 at the end of the first half, our boys lost the game. The final score was Z3 to l7. Previous to the S. F. A. L. tournament, the Unlimited team completed a strenuous practice schedule. Among the teams included in this schedule, those of Potter Prepara- tory School and Piedmont Academy were defeated, while teams representing Hayward and Fremont High Schools wrote defeat on our side of the scoreboard. Frank Collins showed fine team work, especially in scoring in the pinches. Capt. William Cooke played forward and had a dead eye on long shots. Long Waldemar Pence at center covered the whole court, showing up as one of the best all-round Hoor men in the league. Willie Gallagher, a fine dribbler for such a large boy, had a line eye for baskets at critical times. Leimbach proved to be a wonder at dribbling and retrieving the ball from the opponents' goal. Leonard and Dale Hamilton, a husky pair of standing guards, were hard to get around. Hansen is a new man and premises to add enough experience to his present ability to round into a future star.

TEAM Scvenly-seven GIRLS' ATHLETICS The manner in which girls' athletics have been supported this term is most encourag- ing. If enthusiasm and genuine interest are determining factors then the teams should sweep everything before them in the coming contests. The splendid spirit of co-operation manifested has been due largely to the efficient and untiring efforts of our physical edu- cation directresses, Miss Caverly, Miss Lincoln, and also to Miss Ciall, who has been taking Miss Lincoln's place since her accident, fir BASEBALL With a wealth of material turning out to compete for places on various teams, the baseball season proved to be a highly successful one. Over sixty girls have reported on Monday and Tuesday afternoons to Captain Loretta Penzel, who understands the art of leadership very well. Miss Lincoln, with the help of Captain Penzel, has done wonders in an incredibly short time. Future prospects for this sport were enhanced by the large number of Freshmen who entered the activity. They are coached by Miss Caverly dur- ing the fifth and sixth periods, in the morning, on Mondays and Tuesdays. The Seniors defeated the Juniors by the score 30-0. The Sophomores 5, Freshmen 2. A final game will be played to determine the champion team of the school between the Seniors and Sophomores. fix TENNIS Tennis, another major sport, is exceptionally popular. From sunrise fliterallyb to sunset, one may see capable players wielding their rackets in the courts. This sport is under the supervision of Miss Caverly and Captain Ingrid Wetteland, who have left nothing undone to aid the players. Through the interest of the Student Body, the girls have received a net, two dozen balls, and two rackets. The teams are also indebted to the Student Body for a silver loving cup that is to be awarded the team winning the interclass tournament. fir SWIMMING We may see many of our athletes at Sutro Baths every Thursday, where they are instructed by Miss Woodhull and Miss MacDonald. Under the able captaincy of Dorothy Steele, We expect a first class team, which will bring honors and fame to our Alma Mater. Swimming week fApriI 24 to April 295 enabled girls to be instructed by efficient teachers at the Y. W. C. A., Y. L. I., and other institutions. Many girls took advantage of this opportunity and now they exhibit the benefits of this week by showing greater interest in swimming. fps BASKETBALL Basketball is a minor sport this term, but the girls are doing very much to keep in trim. The teams were successful last year, and as there are a large number of veterans, we may expect great things in this sport next term. On Friday, practice day, the F resh- men showed their enthusiasm for the sport by coming out in large numbers. The cham- pion team of last semester was that of the Juniors, who went through a season undefeated. Seventy-eight UIR OR ILXFEISALI.

O. T, C., presented a beautiful new national flag to the Mission High School R. O. T. C. Among the distinguished guests present at this impressive ceremony were: Brigadier- General Edmund Wittenmeyer, Chief of Staff, Ninth Corps Area, Colonel Moore N. Falls, Officer in Charge, R. O. T. C., Ninth Corps Areag Major W, S. Overton, Pro- fessor of Military Science and Tactics, San Francisco High Schools, and Wm. Drew, Principal, Mission High School. When the presentation of the colors to the R. O. T. C, was completed, Principal Wm. Drew, in behalf of the faculty of the Mission High School, presented to Major Overton a flag and inscription plate in honor of his promotion from rank of Captain to that of Major. Under the guidance of Mrs. B. Malloy, chairman of the Committee on Exten- sion of the National Congress of Mothers and Parent Teachers' Associations, a branch of the Parent Teachers' Association was organized in Mission High School during the spring term, The purpose of organizing such an association was primarily to bring together the teachers and the parents of the students of Mission High School in more friendly inter- course and to stimulate interest in the immediate rebuilding of a bigger and better Mission High School. At the first meeting the following oflicers were elected: President, Mrs. George Roscheiseg First Vice-President, Mr. W. Drewg Second Vice-President, Mrs. A. jachensg Recording Secretary, Mrs. E. Wilson: Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. C. Roberts: Treasurer, Mrs. A. Gertsenberg. A paid-up membership of twenty-seven members was duly enrolled at the same meeting. The presentation of the battalion colors, the gift of the Mission Bank and the Mission Savings Bank, to replace the colors destroyed by the fire, took place under the auspices of the Parent Teachers' Association in the Swedish Tabernacle. Our honored Mayor James Rolph Jr. delivered the address of presentation and Major Overton of the R. O, T. C, received the colors in a fitting speech of acceptance. Messrs. McLeran, McGregor, Colman, Hayden, Powers and Welch of our worthy Board of Supervisors, and Mr. Frank Harris of our worthy Board of Education, attended this meeting and expressed their willingness to support the efforts of the Parent Teachers' Eighty-two Association to replace the old ruined Mission High School building with a new and com- plete structure. The association is earnestly hopeful of including all the parents of the Mission district in its membership Horace Wade, ex-l924, our boy author, is addressing audiences in Chicago. At the Declamation Contest we were represented by Marie Bergland and Fred Combellack. Wm. Collonan and Helen Strauss spoke for us in the Annual Shakespeare Contest held at the University of California under the auspices of the High School Dramatic Association. Improvement Associations who gave us aid in our recent movement for a new build- ing were: The Mission Street Merchants' Association, The Valencia Street Merchants' Association, The East of Mission Street Merchants' Association, andvThe Dolores Street Improvement Club. In the hurry and bustle of our work we do not forget Miss Lincoln, whose loyal service to the school we so much appreciate. Faculty and students, we have missed her very much and are looking forward to the time when she can be with us again. fps IMAGINATION If I were a wee little fairy-like elf And lived in a forest glade all by myself, lid dance in the sunbeams with blithesome delight And silently glide through the midst of the night. I'd skip through the sweet-smelling wafts of the air And over the billowing grasses so fair. l'd find little flowers of bright rainbow hue And shy little ferns all illumined with dew. I'd visit them all 'neath the great forest bower From the stately oak tree to the tiny wax flower. I'd kiss the brown spots on the dainty foxglove And drink from the suncup deep draughts of its love. I'd chant with the quietly whispering brooks And summon sweet echoes from the once silent nooks. When weary of wandering I'd stop on my way And rest 'neath a toadstool for the most of the clay. I'd sleep 'till the sunbeams sank down in the west And homeward I'd dance, having ended my quest. .-JULIET YOUNG.. Eighly-three x,,,,.'W 3 .Q , v .

I went to sleep very soon after retiring. Then a friend came to me with his head under his arm and asked me if I wanted to buy his feet. I was negotiating with him when the dragon on which I was riding slipped out of his skin and left me Hoating in mid air. At this juncture the clown bounded into the ring and pulled up the center pole, lifting the tent and all the people up, while I stood on the earth below. At this instant I looked both ways from the middle of the bridge where I was standing and saw a train coming towards me from both directions. Then, just before the trains met, I looked over the edge of the basket and saw that the balloon was upside down and rushing to the earth with great velocity. So I opened the cellar door and went down- stairs until I came to the attic, where I sat on the bank of the river knitting a pair of woolen socks for a rattlesnake. Then I awoke and found I had been asleep almost ten minutes. -ViRciNlA CITY RECORD, Teacher fto studentj: Satan always finds something for idle hands to do. Come up here and I'll give you some work.

There was a place where we used to play, We called this place our gym, But now when we go there to play, We always have to swim. The dear old roof that sheltered us Has now fallen to the ground, It sure ha-s caused a lot of fuss, For many a mile around. Now that our dear school has burnt, And we're all left in the lurch, Our French and Spanish now is learnt, In yonder Swedish Church. -A. Swanson.
