THE MISSION ALMA MATER To thee, Alma Mater, praises we give, For thou art the fountain of youth From which all things spring so bounteously, To impart all theory and truth! Thy wealth of knowledge is like a garden With wondrous flowers bright and fairg And ev'ry one who desires may pluck A lovely, fragrant cluster there. Thy wondrous wisdom is like a deep mine, Where many jewels rich and rare Cleverly hidden in its mighty depths Are found by ev'ry searcher there. O may we love thy wondrous intellect! May we often explore the mine! May we the fragrance of thy flowers glean! May light upon us shine! How we love thee, praise thee and hallow And long to hear thy name o'er all! O confirm all our great expectations And always lead where glories call! lVIay we ever love thee, Alma Mater! When on life's tumultuous sea We soon are set adrift to fight our way, May we employ our gifts from thee! ELSIE CARLSON, Dec. '26. E81 thee! ILTTE R MEI! THE MISSION MEDITATION Have you ever stood high on a cliff With naught behind and naught before, And heard from far below you rise The sullen breaker's roar, VVith not a light, and not a star, Where'er the eye did glance, With all a great, vast, blackness, An endless, vast expanse, With all a mighty silence, Unbroken, undisturbed, Except when the far off breakers, From the ocean's bosom surged? And standing in such solitude, Do not one's feelings prod, Do not one's thoughts seem nobler, Does not one think of God? MORRIS STOLOVVITZ. SONN ET Yea, I must make my life both full and deep! No shallow surface-living e'er could feed, Or quench, this gnawing, ever-present need, Or lull my soul in a deceitful sleep. My spirit must be open to the sweep Of all the winds, and bow unto the creed Of lofty mountain-peak and lowly reed- Learn with the sun to smile, with rain to weep. The sea must beat upon my foolish pride, And wash away the scales from off my sight, My heart must by the blazing noon be tried And walk alone throughout the starless night. If I am never wholly purified, At least I shall have lived with all my might. lilzhi MAITHER. I 10 :I 116k-'1 lVlISSION HIGH SCHOOL M160 'mx-0 THE NECKLACE OF THE CABALLERO Tecal, chief of the Modocs, strode by the little adobe building which white men would know in future years as the Mission Dolores. As he passed the little church the sound of chanting voices came to his ears. The savage smiled as he made for the creek a quarter of a mile to the east. Tecal loved the clear sky and the song of the birds. The prospect of having them all to himself had appealed to his sense of humor. Therefore when the padres requested all the men in the tribe to come, Tecal had re- fused to go himself, but had ordered all his followers to attend. Having disposed of them thus, he prepared to go fishing. That occupation was worthy of a Modoc chief. Tecal passed down beyond the grove of trees which the padres had planted, down through the grasses beyond, and finally reached the sloping bank of the little stream. He now followed the watercourse southward. At last he came to a deep pool Where he knew the fish would be plentiful. He could see them swimming quietly about under the rocks that edged the pool. Tecal approached warily. He was of no mind to cast a shadow on the sunlit water, and frighten the timid creatures within its depths. What a blunderer that white stranger from the place these foreigners called the Presidio had been. The watchful Tecal had seen him fishing here the day before, and heard him come noisily up the bank, singing. The frightened fish had darted for concealment, and it was an empty-handed fisherman that left the creek. Later on the Indian had overheard the soldier tell one of the padres that there were no fish in the creek. Fray Antonio had listened politely, but a sideward glance at Tecal conveyed an amused twinkle, which found an answering glint in the eyes of the native. Tecal had more important business on hand now than wondering at the antics of the foolish white man. The savage fishermanls methods were primitive, but he soon had a large catch. Two hours passed. Time mattered but little to Tecal, and and hours meant nothing. V The Sun was the Modoc chief's clock. It stood at its highest point when the Indian abandoned his labors. The rays from it shone down upon his tattooed skin, as, well supplied with food for himself and his squaws, he swung southward toward the peculiar moundlike structure that was his home. A gleam of something red amid the tall reeds on the other side of the creek caught his eye. Strange! There were no birds singing amid the reeds near that gleaming object, and the reeds themselves were crushed and broken, as if a terrible struggle had taken place among them. Something was wrong! Tecal crossed the stream, careless now of the scurrying trout, and crept cautiously toward the object. The horrib'e sight which met his eye caused no change of expression upon his face. But for him the beauty of the day had departed, and the song of the birds was hushed. He stood, a proud and lonesome figure, sorrowing and heart-hungry. Before him lay all that remained of the corpse of a Modoc hunter. The skull was crushed, the features horribly marred and gnawed away, the body mangled and dripping blood, but the red- stained chest bore marks which identified the body as that of the chief's own brother. All about were huge prints in the surface of the earth, relics of the doer of this deed. Tecal knelt and examined these marks. Then he murmured the name of the creature which had slain his brother, the native word that meant The Killer. One glance llll THIA: MISSION emu 0619 at what had been his brother, and the Indian swung off to the Mission. Tecal was no coward, but he knew that he and the other hunters of the tribe were helpless against 'fThe Killer. The visits of the creature were periodical. The tribe had suffered seven deaths when he had last appeared. That had been before the coming of the white men. Per- haps, now that the good padres were here, they could help his people get rid of this menace. Entering the lklission grounds the Modoc chief came face to face with Fray An- tonio. The latter essayed a friendly greeting, but the Indian ignored it, and made a gesture for the padre to follow him. Knowing the Indian to be friendly, and realiz- ing that something serious was afoot, the padre did as Tecal desired. The red man led the way back to his brother's corpse. Fray Antonio was a man of wide experience, who had in his younger days been both a soldier and a hunter. The mangled mass of humanity which Tecal showed him was sufficient explanation. He nodded his understanding to the Indian and the two returned to the Mission. Five minutes later a rider left the Mission grounds and galloped up the slopes to the north. Following a well-marked trail, he soon came in sight of the blue water of the Golden Gate, and beheld, a little way to the northwest, the military post which upheld Spanish dominion in this far-off western land. He made for the place, and soon delivered his message to the Commandante of the Presidio. The message was a request from the padres for some soldiers to protect the settle- ment against the incursions of The Killer. The Commandante nodded and im- mediately sent for Lieutenant Rodriguez. II Eight cavalrymen, headed by Lieutenant Rodriguez, rode swiftly out of the Pre- sidio, and over the trail to the Mission. The young commander, his face alight with pleasure in the prospect of some excitement, pressed eagerly forward, and it was not long before he halted his men in front of the little adobe building. Tecal was there, waiting with Fray Antonio. His keen glance flashed over the men, then came to rest on the leader. Recognizing the bungling fisherman of the day before, the disappointed Modoc turned to the padre and voiced his disapproval of the appointment of this man for the duty of coping with The Killer. After a moment's discussion the priest advanced to the young officer and asked him to prove his marksmanship to the chief, to which request the lieutenant readily assented. Fray Antonio led the way to an open space of ground, and Rodriguez, supplied with a musket, followed him. The officer was no fisherman, but he was the best shot in the Presidio. The Modoc chief, an interested observer, soon received utter and convincing proof of the white man's skill with the fire-stick. Satisfied on this score, Tecal, through the padres, made Rodriguez understand the scheme he proposed, namely to hunt The Killer down in his lair. The Indian should track the monster down, and Rodriguez shoot it when the red man had located it for him. As for the Lieutenant's detail, it should be left to protect the Mission. E121 MISSION HIGH Scnooi, emu 'lm Tecal did not propose to attempt dealing with The Killer while hampered with a group of senseless white men who made more noise than all his squaws together. One white man was enough to keep him busy, and upon that one, by means of further conversation with the padres, he managed to impress the necessity of moving quietly, and keeping his mouth shut, while on the hunt. Young Rodriguez, approving heartily of Tecal's plan, left the protection of the Mission to the soldiers, under the command of a seasoned old veteran named Lopez, and set out with his lndian ally to stalk The Killerfl Ordinarily the tribe to which the creature belonged were not man-eaters. But The Killer was a degenerate specimen. He found the taste of Modoc Indian very good indeed, so he made himself a den in the neighborhood of the lndian village, and prepared for future forays on the helpless Modocs. lt took the crafty Tecal but a short time to locate the approaches to the creature's cave, and the two men were soon in hiding near it. Fortunately the monster was out. The huntsmen made no sound, and gave no sign of life. At last they noticed a disturbance amid the tall grasses that grew near the deng there was a movement of a huge something near themg and then The Killer appeared. The shrewd Modoc had chosen his position well. The hunters were down wind from the monster, but within easy musket range. They saw the giant body of the beast lurch clumsily, yet swiftly, toward the entrance to the cave. Rodriguez smiled as he held his musket to his shoulder, aimed at a gray patch on The Killer's flank and waited. His savage companion, outwardly calm, was internally consumed with impatience, anger and contempt for this white man who, at what seemed to Tecal the crucial mo- ment, suddenly developed hunter's fever and was unable to fire when the target was right there before him. Would the fool blunder again and let this golden opportunity slip away? If only he, Tecal, knew how to use the fire-stick, his vengeance upon his brother's murderer would be swift! But to have to depend upon this seemingly useless companion was unbearable! Little did Tecal know Don Ramon Rodriguez. The fire-stick was not a weapon of the Modoc people, but the Spaniard knew how to use it. The Indian's desire for vengeance was not destined to remain unsatisfied. After an interminable wait for the Indian, but at what the Spaniard knew to be exactly the right time, the musket roared. The Killer with a bellow of rage and pain, rose to his full height, fangs bared for battle, then ever so gently sagged, slumped to the ground, and died with a last blood-curdling snarl. The Rodriguez' are as proud and ancient a family as any in Spain. The walls of their home are adorned with many trophies, well and honorably won. But no greater tribute to their skill as huntsmen exists than a certain necklace which a mem- ber of the family earned while serving as a soldier in the King's army in California, and left behind him when he died as a proof of his prowess. It was made by the squaws of Tecal, the Modoc chief. It consists of strong heavy grass fiber, and the claws of The Killer --a gigantic California grizzly bear. WILLIAM NICHOLS. l 13 l THE Mrss1oN axon um GUR MISSION STADIUM Fellow students of the Mission High School, do you realize what wonderful possi- bilities we have for a natural Stadium in our Mission Park? On a beautiful Spring afternoon, have you ever stopped to gaze on the magnificent panorama stretched out before you? ln the distance, the terraced green slopes, flanked by clusters of graceful palms-all enclosing a natural bowl-an ideal stadium in the making. Hundreds of athletes are practicing, some pole-vaulting, some hurling javelins and discs-rivaling in effect th: Grecian athletes of ancient prowess. Not to be outdone, the girls in sensible athletic attire, are following the directions of their directors. It is an inspiring picture! What does it suggest to you? The climatic conditions, the artistic outlook and the neighborhood needs-all combine to prove that the Mission Park should be transformed fwithout disturbing any of its natural beautiesj into a Stadium for the Mission. It could be used, not only by the Mission High School students, but also by the students of both the Horace Mann and Everett Junior High Schools, and by all the youth of the growing Mission District. The Sunset District has two stadia, but the climatic conditions and the fact that they are so inaccessible to the Mission Students in general lessen their value as such to us. It remains for the students of the Mission High School to bring these facts to the attention of those who are ready and willing to assist in any great movement for the good of humanity. Let us, each one of us, constitute himself and herself a committee of one to further the great movement, to carry this propaganda, far out and heyond. Let us have a Mission Stadium for the Mission boys and girls of the future. X. THE HOMING PIGEON CLUB lllission High School has started a Homing Pigeon Club under the direction of Mr. Drew, Captain Rogers, and Mr. Galeno. Meinbership in the club is open to any boy or girl who is interested in pigeons. A loft has been built, and the training of the birds has been started. The earliest record of pigeons kept under domestication occurs in the fifth Egyptian dynasty, about 3000 years B. C. Pigeons with the homing instinct were utilized for carrying the names of the Olympic victors to their various cities. An actual post was established in Bagdad by the Sultan in 1150 and lasted until the fall of Bagdad in 1258 by Mongola, who destroyed the system. The homing pigeon is the result of several centuries of intelligent cross breeding between various races derived from the bizet or rock pigeon of Europe. This crossing has produced the homing pigeons of today, a variety of the pigeon family, noted for its superior intelligence, and physique, and with the peculiar characteristic that it will return to its home loft when released at a distance. When the armistice was signed, the United States Army had 20,000 homing pigeons in service. Pre-eminent among the American birds was the President Wilson. Lib- erated at Grand Pre at 2:35 p. m. with an important message, during intense machine gun and artillery action, the bird delivered its message to the loft at Rampont, a dis- tance of 40 kilometers, in 25 minutes. Upon examination it was found that one leg had been amputated and that the breast had been pierced by a machine gun bullet. The Mocker with one eye destroyed by a piece of shrapnel and his head a welter of clotted blood homed from the Beaumont front. This bird carried a message of great importance which gave the location of several of the advancing heavy batteries, which were doing terrible execution on the advancing American troops. This informa- tion enabled the American artillery to silence the guns of the enemy within twenty minutes. Z. I14l enroll' MISSION HIGH SCHOOL CONTENTMENT Two little'doves sat side by side, As close as close could be, On a swaying screen of feathery green In a beautiful pepper-tree. They came each eve at set of sun, This little he and sheg They tucked their heads in a feather bed As sleepy as could be. Without a thought of rent to pay, Never a worry, he. Where, indeed, shall be go to feed ? Never a question, she. Never a thought of fashion or gown Worried this little pair, Whether each hat were tall or Hat, Their little heads were bare. Without a thought of food or drink Broadcast everywhere, Nothing to bake or nothing to make, Never a dream of care. Every night at set of sun They flew to the waving tree, In confidence sweet, to rest complete, A lesson to you and me. ELSIE CARLSON. DREAMS The songs that sing inside my head Are pretty as can be, But when I put them into words, It spoils them utterly. Visions bright and shining-fair My waking hours enthrall- The dreams that I could never tell Are loveliest of all. BETH MAITHER. I 15 I 'KSTX2 THE MISSION M6311 B619 THE WAR OF 1976 War!

The three presidents of the Earth. namely, Sling One Hi of the yellows, Omo Congo of the blacks, and Colonel August Schaefer of the whites, met in discussion at San Francisco, Earth's largest city. They all fully realized the stupidity of war, for the Earth at this date was in a state of universal peace and brotherhood, the mark of achievement of such prominent and peace loving figures as Dr. L. Glickman, Mr. Charles Coles, and Hon. Paul Daly. With such invent- tions as Dr. jean Andrus' molecular diffuser, whereby people and even planets could be completely dispersed, or the gravity exterminator, by which gravity could be shut off and all the Earth's inhabitants thrown into abyssmal space, peace had become the price of existence. The session lasted but a few hours. The presidents decided to approach the Mar- tians tactfully through Georg Elswurth, the earth's ambassador to Mars. CAuthor's note: his name was spelled G-e-o-r-g E-l-s-w-u-r-t-h, because Mr. Warren Kava- naugh. World famous English authority, ten years before, at an English convention had so impressed those present of the essentiality of a universal language in which every word should be spelled exactly as pronounced that his idea was unanimously accepted by the peoples of the earthj. Georg Elswurth, Earth's ambassador to Mars, was a worthy product of the famous Mission High School, an institution of no little note at this time. The institution itself covered twelve acres, eighteen stories high with escalators giving access to upper floors. One square block was given over entirely to scientific and inventive laboratories and under the guidance of the eminent men, Dr. F. Brand and Dr. J. Andrus, the sci- entific progress of the world had been greatly accelerated. The second block com- prised the great shops in which all the marvelous inventions of the science depart- ment materialized, and even at this time Mr. Bill Nichols, technician was working on a Stellar Express which was to secretly convey Georg to Mars. The famous sunken gardens had been transformed into a wonderful pool of Hvitalityl' water, around this was a stadium which contained everything the imagination of a modern boy could wish for, most of the devices being electrically operated. Within the stadium to the west of the swimming tank, there was a football field, while a little to the right of this second base held down its mediocre position on the envied baseball field. The R. O. T. C. building was a place of no idle minutes. The subareo division Crecently added, had its landing place on the roof of that building. Back of the building was a light artillery discarded since about 1956 because war had been given over to peace. In the unparalleled rifle range, students under Capt. Caldwell were taught rifle marksmanship simply to train the eye and for the manly competition with the planet Venus, held annually. The phenomenal Mission High Band of 500 pieces practiced daily in this acoustic perfect room for its competition with a picked European Band, conducted by Sousa, Jr. A large space in this building was devoted to the signal corps. There was a huge television apparatus and the radio communicating devices that had established the Uni- i16l NIISSION I-lion SCHOOL 14150 IIGXXQ versal distance reception record-having established communication with distant Nep- tune. The rest of the school was devoted to academic subjects--principally Mathematics which played a most important part in this age. Needless to say, it was headed by Martin Euclid Storm, the world's renowned mathematician. The typing class was revolutionized at this time. All one had to do was to speak into a phone and the words were automatically typed. The only language taught was the international language whose chief exponent was Major Santiago Geray. The send-off to Mars was to be a quiet one. But as Georg approached the Mission field he was startled to see some 10,000 Nlissionites there for his send-off. Captain Ed. Pallas, orator, made a plausible farewell speech, after which Robert McWhinney Jr. took those present through the famous Ee Yow, and then Georg with two others entered the Stellar Express and were off. Georg Elsworth was a typical American. His shoulders were broad and his jaw square and set, the kind a psychologist would describe as one with bulldog tenacity. His nose was straight and sharp, his eyes, though a light gray, were piercing and quick to detect. The rather high forehead fading into the slick brown hair gave evidences of the mental capacity behind it. Georgls companion for the flight was Dr. F. Brand, the eminent chemist and scientist also of the famous Mission High School. He was the inventor of the tissue re- storer, the prolonger of human life. lt was thought that for the want of this secret the Martians had declared war. The third character was Dr. Brand's daughter-Winona, who had insisted on going. Her fairness and manners rivaled that of the rarest flower. She was an ex- ception to the twentieth century masculine girl for she retained all her femininity. However, the light in her blue eyes and the twitch of her thin lips betrayed a slight bit of roguishness in her character, which lent the needed pep to make such an at- tractive personality. Well, let's hope our journey will be a successful one, spoke Winona, glancing at Georg shyly. I have the responsibility of all the people of the Earth on my shoulders and the strain will be a great one, answered Georg modestly. The journey was an uneventful one and few words were spoken between them. Georg had kept the throttle three quarters open and the Stellar Express kept well up to 500 miles an hour. At length however they reached the cold country of the North- ern parts of the Red Planet just as Old Sol lent his crimson touch to the broad desolate stretches of Nature's white carpet. Watch your step, Winona. quoted Georg, because this is your first experience on lvlars and the gravity is of much less strength than on earth. Winona however did not heed Georg's warnings and she was sent twelve feet into the air by just exerting force enough to take an average step on our planet. This dif- ficulty was overcome, however, and ten o'clock found them nearing the City of Egad. As they approached its gates they were suddenly surrounded by a group of the hideous Martian warriors. They were about thirteen feet tall. This was due however to the small gravita- tional pull of the planet. The rare Martian atmosphere lent diiliculty to breathing and to hearing, so nature had bestowed on these creatures sensitive noses similar to the ll7l THE MISSION edit - lm' trunk of an elephant. Their ears also were not unlike an elephantls, being extremely large and flabby. Their bodies were covered with fuzzle feathers due to the cold cli- mate. Their heads were abnormally large and their legs and arms abnormally small, due to the fact that all work was done by their brains. Their arms, from lack of use, had lost their muscular mold. They spoke in monosyllabic language that Georg alone could understand and presently it was made known to the Earth's people that they were under arrest and would be hastened to Oorah for trial by the Martian emperor. Georg's plans were being caried out, and all submitted wilfully to be escorted to the nearest broadcasting station. 'alt will be a new thrill to be broadcasted to Oorah from here, said Winona wist- fully. Yes, if this famous Martian device for broadcasting human beings works suc- cessfully, replied Georg. The molecular transmitter delivered the three earth visitors to Oorah without a mishap. They all donned radium injected clothes, the warm properties of which off- set the cold Martian temperature of l80 degrees below zero, Fahrenheit. They were escorted into the court of the Emperor, a magnificent glass palace which lent an untold colorful beauty to the eye of an observer, due to the reflecting properties ofthe glass. Most of the architecture was strange and weird to the Earth folks and most of the colors were bright Vermillion or a dazzling green. lluge batlike creatures, perhaps pets of the Martians, infested the ceiling of the dome. After being escorted before l.Q., Super Intellect and Emperor of Mars, Georg at once assumed the role of first speaker. Allow me to introduce Professor Brand and his daughter Winona, spoke Georg calmly. He added, lt is needless to say that Professor Brand is the famous inventor of the tissue restorer which, I surmise, is wanted by all Martians. Learning this, the Emperor quickly put the Earth folks at ease, assembled his con- suls and Georg was again introduced as spokesman. You probably realize the stupidity of war and the blessing of eternal brotherhood which now predominates on our Earth, spoke Georg, addressing the Martians in their language. He continued, lf all the time, money, and brains devoted to plane- tary wars were devoted to scientific progress we would be advanced at least 100 years further than usual. For example, on earth we can make from coal tar, perfume or TNT,-which do you prefer? On Earth the golden rule governs our land, now we hope to have the law also govern planets. The grievances between us are but slight. It is your desire, we surmise, to obtain the Earth's invention called the tissue restorer, but to people of your mental capacity it is your method to approach us by war? We are glad to share our inventions with the people of the universe and I take this op- portunity on behalf of Dr. Brand to present to you the Tissue Restoreru as a gift, feeling you have repaid us by eliminating war. I thank you l For a time none of the Martians spoke and it was clearly evident that they were struck silent by the unselfish purport of Georg's speech. Then the Martian Emperor arose. Friends, he began, I implore your pardon for my hasty actions. Allow me to explain the cause of our ignorance. fl8l INIISSION HIGH ScHooL 1.4011 'IGN Our people like yours have followed the arts and sciences for ages. Much has been accomplished. Feats have been performed that would convince even the most skeptical. Amazing inventions have occurred with such regularity that they are no longer considered novelties but common products of the age. Still we have failed miser- ably! We have failed for the simple reason that of all these discoveries not one had dealt with the prolongation of life. And this to the Martian people is of the utmost and highest importance. Here the Emperor paused, noticed the effect of his words and continued: Hearing of Professor Brand's remarkable discovery The Tissue Restorerf' our people were filled first with wonder and admiration, then with envy. Not an or- dinary jealousy, but an intense one that flickered and flamed within them. The only recourse was a Declaration of War, a recourse which I now see was wholly unneces- sarvf' In behalf of the Martians, I accept your splendid gift and in reciprocation I want to present your people with a Martian discovery called the Ambition Ray or synthetic knowledge. These rays of various wavelengths when diffused on a person transmit permanently to that person all the knowledge those wavelengths represent. For example, if the chemistry wavelength 0000000000053 mm.J is used the student immediately knows all the chemistry the device gives off, which is about the same as the knowledge acquired in one month's study, and so it is but once a month that these students go before these rays, the rest of the time being devoted to athletics. shops, laboratories, et Cetera. Professor Brand jumped to his feet. A remarkable discovery indeed! The students of Mission High will be the first ones to profit by your kindness! Would that we had it in my school days. The emperor then invited them to partake of a Martian banquet. Soon the entire party was seated at the enormous tables while a host of strange but delicious viands was placed before them. Joyfully they ate, happy with the thought that a horrible and destructive war had been averted. After the banquet, Georg and Winona strolled to the grand balcony adjoining the hall to witness the beauty of a night' on Mars. The Earth loomed in the heavens as a huge full moon. I really believe the Earth received the best of the bargain, spoke Winona de- lightedly. Why have you come to that conclusion, asked Earth's capable ambassador. Because, Georg, and here Winona wrinkled her forehead assuming a Winsome philosophical attitude, what is life without the ability to learn and gain an under- standing of its problems, without which joy and content are never, in their fullest sense, realized. E191 Turn NHSSION Q6 USN' Georg nodded his head approvingly at this girl's radiant philosophy and until late that night two figures were silhouetted in the magnificent, moon-like light of Earth, which their ultra-modern diplomacy had probably saved from destruction.

They seem to have forgotten their own youth- Their eager, hungry searching for the truth. They cannot see my scorn of childish play, Nor yet the yearning, as it slips away, For carefree, thoughtless freedom that was mine. They guess not, though they have perceptions fine, What dread I have, and what unceasing fears Of all the binding cares that come with years. My Words, to them, are bold and crudely new, CWhy should they shrink from all things that are true?Q They laugh at every fairy fantasy, My shining dreams they shatter ruthlessly.

I 20 l M1ss1oN HIGH SCHOOL 14011 'Km' THE TESTING OF THE TENDERFOOT Three teams figured as winners in the Alaska Dog Classic. One of them belonged to Gus Paulsen, victor in last year's race, the second was the property of Cree Joe, runner-up in the previous struggle, and the third was Petroff's wonder team. N o one knew where Petroff had gotten those magnificent dogs. He had appeared out of nowhere, it seemed, with a string of dog-Hesh unequalled in all Alaska. His boasts of what he would do with the team in the race had seemed well grounded, but Death removed Petroff before he could bear out his bragging. The team came into the possession of a young tenderfoot from the States, a yellow- haired, blue-eyed youth, named McKinley. The young fellow was well liked, but those who saw fit to bet on the race placed their money on Paulsen or Cree Joe. Ut- terly unconcerned, McKinley went right ahead with his preparations for the big race. lt was a long race, an endurance contest, and the course was laid over a very rough trail. The day of the struggle came at last. A crowd gathered at the starting point. A long time would pass before another crowd began to collect at the finish line. The real contest for supremacy must go unwatched. But the racers, with the prospect of the prize before them, cared little for spectators. The teams were off! Cree Joe took the lead, McKinley followed a close second, and Pau'sen trailed with a lot of second-raters. Cree Joe's team held its lead for some time, but the space between McKinley and himself varied not an inch. The other teams were far behind, not even in sight. Paulsen was so far in the rear that he could no longer consider himself in the running. ' Half the long course had been covered when the super-blood of the team Mc- Kinley drove began to tell. Slowly but surely, apparently not at all handicapped by their tenderfoot driver, the huskies shortened the distance between themselves and the other team. The other driver saw McKinley's team draw up alongside him, pass him by, and take the lead. With the stoicism of his race, Cree Joe settled down to regaining his lost position. His effort was useless, McKinley vanished around a turn in the trail, nor did Cree Joe again catch sight of him. Half a mile beyond the turn which McKinley had rounded was the intersecting trail to Nome. As McKinley approached the crossing a dog-sledge shot out of the other road, from the east, and the driver toppled off and lay still. The dogs, tangled in the traces stood where they were. Forgetting the race, lVIcKinley rushed to the fallen one to give what assistance he could. One look at the man told him that he was dying and past all aid. Diphtheria had him in its clutches. The stranger opened his eyes, saw McKinley, and choked out, Diptheria antitoxin -for Nome-For God's sake take it quick. They're dying in droves-no antitoxin in Nome- he gasped, struggled for breath, HStuff didn't help me any-didn't know how to use it-. Go quick-never mind me. There was no need to mind him indeed, for he was dead. l'vIcKinley saw two things flash before him-the prize, and a city of plague-strick- en people. His team could take him either to victory in the race, or to the relief of Nome. McKinley needed the money prize, needed it badly. No one but he had heard the dying man's words. The cash was vital to his continued existence in Alaska. It is a hard thing to give up-one thousand dollars in gold. The people of Nome were dying in droves. i211 THE MISSION 0460 0650 A memory of a girl back in the States came to him. She would expect him to-he removed the dead man's dogs from the sledge, and harnessed his own huskies to it. He drove up to the crossing, looked at the trail behind, swore deep and loud, and turned his team westward toward Nome. His long whip cracked over the leader. lVIush! They were off toward the stricken city. II Dr. Seward, health officer of Nome, turned to his little corps of nurses, some of them trained, others volunteers. A look of despair was on his face. Unless more antitoxin arrives today we are beaten, and Nome is a city of the dead! But, Doctor, protested one of the volunteers, we've cured half the cases with the antitoxin the other sledges brought through. Yes, but as fast as we cure them new cases break out. Now we're out of serum. The disease is still rampant and spreading faster all the time! Disconsolately, despairing but still fighting, the gallant workers turned to their terrible task of caring for those stricken with the dread disease. Returning to his headquarters on the outskirts of Nome, Doctor Seward found four of his helpers stricken down. Half an hour passed, and one of the four succumbed. Tears trickled down the doctor's cheeks as little Jess McLeod's body was borne away. It is useless,', he sobbed. 'KWe are beaten! Mush! A soft, mellow voice floated down from far up the trail. There came a baying of huskies, and Dr. Seward rushed to the door, took one look at the approach- ing sledge and reverently breathed, Thank God l A yellow-haired boy sprang from behind his team of weary dogs and inquired in a tired, listless voice, Where do I bring the antitoxin ? Here! How much did you bring, man? We need a lot of it. God grant that you've brought enough I I don't know. I took the place of the fellow who got it. He cashed in on the trail. Dr. Seward promptly made an investigation of the contents of the sledge. Good Lord, he exclaimed, a triple load! enough to save all Nome! But what in the world did the man do for food ? A sudden suspicion occurred to the doctor. What did the man look like ? he inquired of McKinley. In the same beaten, discouraged voice, McKinley answered, I don't remember except that he had two fingers gone. Hugh McLeod! ejaculated the physician. He tried to come through on no food, and bring all the serum we needed. Young man, you and your dogs have saved Nome! McKinley nodded, and turned his attention to caring for his dogs. For a hero who has saved a city from destruction, thought Dr. Seward, 'ithat young fellow is the most unhappy specimen I ever saw. At that moment one of his subordinates came up to him asked. What's Al Mc- Kinley doing here. He's supposed to be running in the Classic right now! Dr. Seward shrewdly put two and two together. As he set out to administer the newly arrived antitoxin, he said to himself, Now I understand a lot of things. The IZZI MISSION HIGH SCHOOL '00 'IGN first of which is that a blue-eyed kid from the States is the finest he-man in Alaska. And the second is that he's going to get as square a deal as he gave! Cree joe hadn't known what to make of the strange dogs, the corpse, and the standing sledge he knew belonged to McKinley. Neither was he able to account for the wild acclaim that he received as he crossed the finish line first. Great was his sur- prise when the thousand dollars in gold was handed to him. To his credit be it said, he instantly reported the disappearance of McKinley and the presence of the strange team and the body of a dead man. As soon as the next two teams had crossed the line, and the drivers had borne out Cree Joe's statement, there began a rush back to the place where the popular young tenderfoot had disappeared. The second-raters in the race had given up and were already grouped about the spot where the body hadi lain, for it had since been removed. There was considerable mystery about what had happened, until an old prospector read the signs in the snow. His conclusions were so accurate that he told everything that had happened except the reason for McKinley's heading for Nome. A week of terrible weather prevented McKinley's return for a while. He stayed in the town, helping out as much as he could, while the disease abated. At last a day arrived when he could travel back whence he had come. But another team had gone ahead, with an hour and a half start over the magnificent brutes that drew McKinley. At that, the first driver arrived only forty minutes ahead of him. But forty minutes was plenty of time. The Nome trail had been watched ever since McKinley's disappearance, and the traveler found an eager audience awaiting him. Having told his story, he demanded the way to McKinley's cabin. He was led to it. Forcing an entry, he placed upon the table a money sack containing a thousand dollars in gold-the equivalent of the Classic prize. McKinley's townsmen weren't the people to let such a thing happen without coming in on it themselves. Consequently, considerably more than a thousand was left on the table in the cabin when the house-breakers filed out, and locked the place as securely as the young fellow had left it. There was a crowd lined up to receive the tenderfoot when he rode into town, and the cheering' and actions of his townsmen showed him that no explanations were neces- sary. When the reception was over, and he returned to his cabin, feeling within himself utterly discouraged, the first thing that caught his eye was a swollen money sack resting on the table beside a card written in a strange hand, which read, Nome Classic Sweep- stakes. He made inquiry of Cree Joe about it. The Indian having recently contributed one hundred and fifty dollars to a certain worthy cause, was unable to give him any in- formation. McKinley then sought to learn something from Guo Paulsen. The latter having recently contributed fifty dollars to the same worthy cause, was utterly ignorant of what McKinley was talking about. All his efforts at discovering the donors of the gold ending in failure, as far as his townsfolk were concerned, he sent a ,letter asking information of Dr. Seward. In return he received a nice long letter, utterly void of any information at all. So, finally, the young tenderfoot who had so successfully met the test of the North was compelled to be content, and to accept the prize for his race against Death.

ELs1E CARLSON. I24I 0630 MISWON HIGH SCHOOL 'Eli 063-0 IN THE AIR Our flying field was situated a few kilometers north of the old French city Toul, on the road that led to Pont a Musson. We had three large tent hangars that were camouflaged so that they would resemble a small forest, from an airplane in the sky. Each hangar would hold ten small airplanes. The planes we used on patrol duty were the one hundred and eighty, and the two hundred and twenty horse power French Spad. This was a compact one-man machine with two machine guns placed on the cowl. The guns were timed with the motor so that they would shoot between the propeller blades as it revolved. The steering apparatus of the Spad was a round stick about two and one-half feet long. To this stick were two wires connected to triggers, which when pressed on, released the safety catch of the machine guns. The pilot gripped the stick with his right hand and his first two fingers passed around the triggers. To shoot he would press one trigger or both as he saw fit. The machine guns were stationary, and when aiming at a target the pilot would manipulate the plane, so that the target was within the sights of a small circular sight between the two guns. When he could see the target within the circle, he would pull the triggers and the bullets would fly thick and fast. Every fifth bullet was a tracer so that the pilot could see if his shots were hitting the mark. The tracer bullet left a small stream of smoke in its wake, and observing this trail of smoke the pilot could judge his aim. We had three flights in our squadron, A, B, and C flights. Each flight had a color assigned to it, and the nose and back of the leader's machine were painted their respec- tive colors so that the different flights could follow their leader. A flight was red, B flight was blue, and C flight white. We had three patrols a day, the first patrol was at daybreak, second at 10 a. m., and third at 2 p. m. Each machine had three men working on it to keep it in condition, one man was in charge, generally a Sargeant, with two Privates working under him. The machines were placed in a straight line in front of the hangars. The man in charge would see that it was filled with gasoline, oil and water, test the wires, braces, steering apparatus, and then he would run the motor until it was warm and then give the motor a thorough testing. When he said the machine was O. K., the pilot would climb into the seat and take off into the wind. The leader of the flight would circle the field until he reached the desired altitude. The other machines would follow their leader, and when they were in flight formation CV shapej the leader would then head for the front lines looking for machines of the enemy and all prepared for combat. We had an insignia painted on one side of each machine. Our Captain was a graduate of Princeton University and we used his college insignia, an orange tiger with black spots. When an enemy machine was brought down, we painted the helmet of the enemy under the forepaw of the tiger, signifying that another enemy machine was added to our list.

Look at him tower toward the skyl When the wind sighs through his strong branches, he smiles happily and seems to say, How fine that feels to be able to sway gently in the breeze. But if that same breeze rustled my weaker branches, I would be surprised if they did not break. How wou'd it feel to be a small, beautiful tree? How would it feel to be a tall, strong tree? Does a small tree feel satisfied with itself, or does it look upward toward its stronger brother? If I were a tree, what would I think? How I envy my taller brother! When lovers come strolling toward us, they give me no consideration whatsoever. They lean against my stronger brother and talk foolishly. I can hear them. He takes his pocket-knife and idly carves their initials on my brotber's strong bark. I know he doesn't mind, because it is a labor of love. How I wish that I were strong and tall, that I may have some consideration. Yes, I have some consideration. The birds love to chirp and flit about my springy young branches. They have such a wonderful time that I often wish I were a bird. Of all the seasons, I love the springtime best of all. The entire world is full of love and life. My branches are filled with leaves and my body is pulsing with sap. A new sap that makes one feel strong, even if he is small. The summertime comes and my branches and leaves begin to dry. By winter they are all bare, and I stand in the shelter of my brother as the wind rages through his branches. How I love my brother now! This is the time that I receive no consideration, which is a benefit to me. Lumber- men come and saw and chop my strong brother for lumber in the cities. My heart is torn as I hear my brother groan when an axe bites deep. How I hate these menll But I, too, shall grow up to be strong and stately. My heart is torn when I think of the fate I shall receive. My bark will be covered with hearts. But, life is life and love is love. and the world still moves. AHTI Ano.

O. T. C. The thrilling finale of the Spring Term in R. O. T. C. activities has for once tempted ye chronicler of R. O. T. C. events to throw his history mill into reverse gear and grind backward, for to recall dim visions of the past while all about us the welkin rings to the immediate, glorious, victorious present, is strain too arduous for our high- spirited typewriter. All of which is to begin again to relate--if there be one uninformed soul left in the land-of the celebration now going on in lVIission High School at having annexed the whole silverware department of the Seventh Annual R. O. T. C. Competition for our beloved school. A whole feast of bacon was provided at this year's military tournament, enough honors for all, but Mission came home with an acute gastritis, while the other schools went home with something like a profound if not voluntary fast. Three beautiful loving cups that were, and, thanks to our Drill Platoon, our Band and our Physical Training Team, three beautiful cups that are in our trophy cabinet. Four medals there were for best-drilled individuals, and two of them adorn the uniforms of Sergeant Malcolm Ross and Corporal Emanuel Cherin. Four thousand enthusiastic Missionites, under the generalship of Mr. Rust, Mel Chambers and their aides, cheered the Mission banqueters to their utmost gastronomic capacities. Shortly before the end of the term Mission, from the park hillsides, cheered the presentation of a much-sought-after trophy to the R. O. T. C. rifle team. This repre- sented first honors in competition with the other high school battalions of the city for the annual Colonel Jesse Colman Rifle Trophy, which has been offered during two consecutive years and which has been twice taken by Mission. Cadets Elvin Caldwell, Robert Turnbull, Robert Anderson, Walter Jensen, and Jack Cullen composed this year's team, which Was successfully coached by Captain W. Flood. An impressive ceremony was ably executed by the Battalion at the presentation. Great is the anticipation of certain enthusiastic specialists among us at seeing, as THE MISSION goes to press, the homing pigeon bungalow being erected on the roof of the West Wing by our Shop Department, where it will be the home of many valuable young birds, which will soon be donated to the Mission High School Homing Pigeon Club by other clubs and experts about the bay region. All members of the student i661 M1ss1oN HIGH SCHOOL 'Jon T.. .uma body and faculty are eligible for this interesting activity, which had its origin in the beautiful and practical ideas and ideals of Mr. Galeno, assisted by the ready co-opera- tion of Mr. Drew, Mr. Crocker and Mr. Rust, Lieutenant William Mann, the U. S. Army Signal Corps, and many clubs and individuals. A great asset by way of visual education was brought to us early in the term when a large sand table was constructed in the Shop Department by our beloved comrade, George Thomas, whose willing efforts and unselfish life remain an inspiration to us after the bereavement we suffered at his sudden death on February Sth. By means of topographical and strategical problems, Captain Rogers has brought to us on the sand table a visualization of terrain and troop movement that could not be had short of actual campaigning in the field, for, on a miniature scale, it is the field, taken from a map and reproduced in the sand, with villages, lakes, railroads, farms and other details to make it realistic. Like so many of the year's achievements, this was made possible by the loyal and constructive support of Miss Kelly, Treasurer, together with support unparalleled from Mission's Associated Student Body. The thanks of the Battalion and of the School go to Cadet Major August Schaefer, who this term has installed a measure of efficiency new to this unit. His splendid mili- tary bearing, his treatment of officer and private the same and his insistence that each man do his assigned Work have greatly boosted the morale of the organization and have helped to mark this as a successful term and to mark himself as one of the very best cadet officers the regiment has ever known. Another six months will, according to cherished plans, see the Battalion housed in its new quarters in the completed Mission High School structure, where every facility has been provided for our comfort and further progress. lt has been an uphill pull for the R. O. T. C. battalion since the fire burned us out of house and home, but we feel that the sweet uses of adversity have brought a spirit of triumph and of appreciation of the wondrous home that is so nearly ready for the Battalion and Band. EDWARD P.-u.I.As. LIGHTS The icy shafts of starlight cold That pierce the shield of night, Are sharp and keen as dagger-points- As heartless and as bright. But lights that shine from homes are soft To greet each welcome guest, They bid the foot-sore wanderer To enter and find rest. If my own life should shed a light for other folks to see, May it, with steady, mellow glow, A peaceful home-light be.

E761 MISSION HIGH SCHOOL M60 uma UNLIMITED TRACK The unlimited track team under Captain Cerrutti and Coach Harris held two dual meets and one triangular meet this year. The triangular meet was held in Oakland against McClymond's and Roosevelt High Schools. The Oakland lads were, the winners, with Mission right on their heels. Not being daunted by their defeat, the team held a dual meet with McClymond's the following week. lt was a fast affair, and the McClymond boys again triumphed over the Brown and Gold. Coach Harris, with twenty athletes, made a journey to Vallejo for their second dual meet. Brown scored Hrst place for Mission by beating a fast field in the century. Austin Keegan made two throws in the javelin, and his second heave was a toss of one hundred and forty-nine feet, which gave him an easy first place. Tim Holcomb tied the Vallejo man for first. Owens won the shot-put and placed second in the discus. At the end of the relay the Vallejo tracksters had chalked up a large score over the Mission Team. The interclass track meet was held in the old Park Stadium on May the sixth. The Juniors upset the Udopel' sheet by beating the seniors by four and one-half points. The scores were: Seniors, 48Zg Juniors, 53, Sophomores, 1425 Freshmen, 5. Captain Cerrutti had a, strong aggregation of Seniors that were primed to win the laurels of the dayg which they would have done if Lambert of the Sophs hadn't stepped out eighteen feet to win the broad jump. The Senior team was composed of Brown, winner of the century, and the two hundred and twenty-yard dash, Owens, first in the shot-put and discus and second in the javelin. Owens was high point man for the Seniors. Austin Keegan won the javelin by tossing the spear one hundred and fifty-nine feet, tying the S. F. A. L. record. HOXVARD HOLCOMB. ,JUNIOR TRACK Francis Lambert, captain of the light-weight team, led the Brown and Gold to Cl 69 to 25 victory over Commerce. In their meet with Poly High, they fought hard throughout the meet, but the Poly boys emerged the victors. The Junior Lightweights won the interclass with a score of 57 points. Sophs were second, totaling 41 points, and the Freshmen upheld their class with 20 points. The one hundred-pound class consists of E. McLaughlin and Barone. The one hundred and ten-pounders are Potter and Lambert. Jack Ireland, Schwartz, Verdueci, Haas, Victoria, Lindsay, Cerrutti, and Hines are the one hundred and twenty-pound weight men, with Carraro, Pepee, Steinway, McCanny and Risso in the one hundred and thirty-pound class. The lightweight team has some excellent material, and we hope to see them bring new laurels to Mission in the S. F. A. L. The Brown and Gold are looking to these men for its future track laurels.

The team was made up of the best players Mission has had in many a year. Lee Platt and Frank Baroni, the two forwards, are graduates of the 130-pound team of last year. Captain Fritz Canrinus, the only veteran of last year's team, showed enough ability to be named on the All-Star team, while Johnny Callaghan, center, and Sweden Sorenson, guard, untried at the beginning of the season, but soon showed their worth. As in any game, basketball is a game calling for teamwork, quick thinking and a complete knowl- edge of the game. The boys showed all of this dur- ing their practice games, and when the S. F. A. L. started it was conceded an outsider's chance to win the title. After the first few games, Mission was recognized as the team to beat. All other teams fell before the powerful onslaught of Baroni, Platt and Canrinus, until meeting Lick in the final game for the championship, when the Mission colors were lowered in favor of the Yellow and Black. Fritz Canrinus-Captain and All-Star. Lee Platt- All-Star and one of the fastest men on the team. Frank Baroni-Graduate of 130-pound team and one of the surest shots. Johnny Callaghan -a new man this year, but well up on all points. Swede Sorenson--Smallest and youngest player, but the scrappiest. Abe Daly-Could be counted on for points for any game. Redl' Holcomb-A new man with plenty of fight and ability. Har Charyn-Could be counted on for his quota of lpoints. Apples Roecheise-Started where he left off after football.

As soon as Coach Haas could make heads or tails out of the conglomeration, it was seen that Mission would make a strong bid for the championship. There were several veterans, Captain Barron, McCue, MacCabe, Zahriskie, and many promising stars, among whom were Fabian, H. Zabriskie, Schick and Kelly. The utility strength of the team was more than average inasmuch as there were several fair substitute pitchers. The teams rounded into form early and many of the preliminary games were played with the best nines of the bay district, In these games the players showed great potential strength in both hitting and fielding. just before the start of the S. F. A. L. we lost several stars, due to injuries and academic axe. In our first start against St. Ignatius, we lost by the close score of 4- to 3. It was one of the hardest fought games ever witnessed in a prep league. The boys faced a hard task in playing the game with Sacred Heart. During one of the practices Bill Zabriskie, our star shortstop, was painfully injured and forced out of competition for two weeks. The loss of Bill probably accounts for lXIissi0n's inglorious afternoon. i851 THPI Missiox 04100 'ms-Q BASEBALL QContinzzedj Our next game with Lowell, our rivals, ended in a fourteen-inning tie. 4 all. The replay at St. Ignatius' field saw the Brown and Gold lowered to the Red and White. Galileo, our next opponent, met a 5 to 2 defeat at the hands of the Brown and Gold. The team hit their stride and showed more power than ever before. They worked as a unit and played as capable as any high school team could play. SWIMMING YVith ten high schools competing in the S. F. A. L. swimming meet, Nlission placed fifth, with eight . W points. George Segurson won the unlimited fifty-yard swim and placed second in the unlimited fifty-yard backstroke, his time for the former was 26 SXIO, and 34 Hat for the latter. William Mills stepped into fourth place in the fifty-yard free and fourth in the hundred-yard free style. We hope to see more en- tries in the meet next year, placing lVIission on the top. BASKISTBALL, 130 POUN D lVIission's lightweight basketball team, under the leadership of Captain Ken Barron, started practice quite late in the fall. ln the preliminary games the preliminary games the team made a good showing, winning almost every game. A'though Ken was the only veteran on the team, the coaching of Mr. Haas soon rounded the other players into shape. The seas0n's record showed four league games played. Starting the league against Lick, Mission lost, 19 to 15, after a hard-fought game, in which Barron and Kelly starred. Against St. Ignatius the team got off to a bad start and lost, 21 to 15. Here Kelly starred in the game by his clever guarding, while Driscoll scored most of the points. ln the Galileo game the team played good basketball, and after playing an extra five minutes won by the score of 16 to I-I-. Sutter played a stellar game at guard, while Barron and Garrigan handled the positions at forward very satisfactorily. Against Polytechnic, we GEORGE SEGURSON lost, 23 to 16, in a ragged game of basketball. i861 MISSION HIGH SCHOOL exif-Jn- - 'Kms l TENNIS TEAM TENNIS Mission is well represented in the S. F. A. L. this season in tennis. Two good teams have been developed from Mission's ranks of Bill Tildens. The l30's, who can boast of a strong offensive team, is composed of Dick Mulcahy, Charles Holcomb, and Jack Mulcahy. To get an early start, the 30's played a hard- fought match with Roy Johnson and Lloyd Winter of the unlimiteds. The 30's won out in competition. Mission is also Well represented in the singles this year. Dick Mulcahy and Charles Holcomb are representing the 130 singles.

I90I x NTISSION HIGH SCHOOL van- 'IC-Aw VOLLEY BALL lg Volley ball has been about the most popular girls' sport this spring. This is due to the V- interest and spirit of the large number of girls T who turned out for it and to the excellent - V coaching that was given by the instructors, lVIisses Davidson, Powell and Steffan. A preliminary schedule was so arranged that every team played four games. The team that amassed the greatest total of points for all games, not the one which won the most games, was decided to be the winner of this contest. The Seniors won this and the Freshman team came in second. The girls showed wonderful spirit in their playing and in turning out to support their teams. Every game was hard-fought as the teams were closely matched, but everyone felt that the Freshman team well deserved the title Volley Ball Champions of l926, since they conquered every other team by their fighting and perseverance. The instructors are well pleased with the results of this volley ball season, for they be- lieve that all the players have learned the value of teamwork and co-operation. The girls are sorry the season is over, because they had really enjoyed playing. Every girl who made the team as a regular or a substitute and who turned out ready to play for ut least two games will receive her award. l9ll N I QI Xi TIII4: N1lSSl0N qElLA,,,i,,,, f, nga, Wzlng ,,,,,,1,.,-,,, , 516139 SWIIVIMING GIRLS' CRI-iw E921 NIISSIUN HIGII Svllool, , 'il' ii i', Y 'il' t+ 14i.' , if ,W ' Wi lm VOLLI-ZY BALL TEAMS E93 1 THE IYIISSION won Emp CREVV Our girls' crew added another leaf to the laurels of lldission by winning the last regatta.

In the first crew race our girls beat Lowell by several boat lengths. Then with less than five minutes of rest they entered the final event between the winners of the first and second crew races. Again they proved too fast for the other schools and earned the undisputed title of champions. In the final race our girls broke the speed record and established a new one of 2:13 minutes.

Trees of apple, peach and pear, Plum and cherry fill the air With a vision of delight, Fairy bowers, pink and white, Petals falling like the snow, Drifting as the breezes blow Through the trees, the lovely trees. What so joyous as to swing 'Neath an orchard tree in spring, Sailing through the fragrant air 'Mong the blossoms growing there, Watching cloud-ships in the sky As they skim so high, so high In the trees, the lovely trees. ELSIE CARLSON. APRIL Oh, April is a maiden fair, With lilies in her flowing hair, She banishes the clouds of care- O happy, laughing April. She sings a song so soft and sweet Accompanied by her dancing feet, Runs over hills on white limbs fleet- O merry, dancing April. Her mantle, green like young leaves pale Is trailing over hill and dale, With apple-bloom she weaves her trail- O pretty, dainty April. Oft-times, in sudden girlish pain, Her tears fall soft like silvery rain, But soon her smile shines forth again- O lovely, lovely April. BETH MAITHER.
