THE MAROON AND GOLD A YEAR BOOK PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1922 SILHOUETTE ISSUE f-1-v rm 93822 MONMOU I H ILLINOIS GLENN CUDD-Editor-in-Chief WILLIAM P. BERNER-Business Manager Foreword We, the Class of '22, wish to thank our Parents, members of the School Board, Faculty, and all those who have made it possible for us to attend a school such as Monmouth High School. For three years, we have dreamed of what an annual ought to be. This year we have worked hard to make that dream come true. We have endeavored to fill this book with memories, and through it to show our love for our school. As the Alumni and Friends leaf through these pages, we hope their thoughts will go back, and that they will live again their high school days. We hope that the present students of M. H. S. will treasure this volume and because of the records of achieve- ments and of fun portrayed in this book, by word or by pic- ture, they may take greater pride in being members of Mon- mouth I-Iigh School. vv1unummnnnnnnnInnnIIInlr.nII.IInnnnnn1annumImm:nnnIIIIInInnnnnnnnnnnnnIIIIInnnnnnnnu11vIIIIInnnnnnnnnnIIueIIIIInnnnnnnnnnnmmmnnnnmnnnwmnmmnnunn 1.Hmunmmmmnm.. Page Four Memory There is a mystic borderland that lies just past the limits of our work-day world, And it is peopled with the friends we met And loved, a year, a month, a week, or day, ' And parted from with aching hearts yet knew That through the distance we must loose the hold Of hand with hand, and only clasp the thread Of memory. But still so close we feel this land, So sure are we that these same hearts are true, That when in making dreams there comes a call That sets the threads of memory aglow We know that just by stretching out the hand In written word of love, or book, or flower, The waiting hand will clasp our own once more Across the silence, in the same old way. mmmvIIIIIIuIummmumInuuuuuuumnnmnmmIumIInuinIummmIIIIIIIIIInum-mf1IInInnniminninm-mmmmnuunm-:mumIIInnnnnmuuummnnnm 1922-THE 511.1-1oUETTE-1922' To Miss Lucile White, our beloved advisor, who has so faithfully and willingly guided us through our High School career, we, the Class of l922, gratefully dedicate this volume, The Silhouette.

Debate Monmouth High School was unusually successful in forensic work this year. We debated Burlington, Galesburg, Geneseo, and Davenport and succeeded in defeating all except Davenport. We were fortunate to have Marshall Briley and Willis Hub- bard, two of last year's veterans, back on the squad, and the other four boys, who made the team, developed into quite re- markable speakers. The question debated Was, Resolved: That the City Manager Form of Govern- ment is the most desirable for American Cities. As a preliminary contest, before the Big Eight event, a dual debate was staged with Burlington the early part of March. Monmouth won both decisions. This made us very confident when We went up against our old friend Galesburg on March l7. Our arguments were so con- vincing that we secured four out of six of the judges, so this put us in the finals with Davenport and Geneseo. We defeated Geneseo 3 to 0, but Daven- port did the same with us and also with Geneseo. This, then, made Monmouth rank second place in the Big Eight. Power and intelligence were stamped upon themf' V. .- F Season The affirmative team was composed of Donald Beste, William Soule, and Mar- shall Briley, with Marion Jacobs as alter- nate. This team managed to do the travel- ing the first two times so we clidn't get to hear them until the final debate with Geneseo. Donald Beste and William Soule proved w ' speakers could be developed by hard intensive preparation, and Marshall took us by storm with his impassioned burst of oratory. The negative side of the question was sup- ported by Floyd Patterson, George Graham, and Willis Hubbard with Max Rodgers as alternate. This team debated Burlington and Galesburg on the home floor and then went to Davenport for their final debate. Much credit for the work goes to Mr. Bryce Hoover who proved such a splendid coach. Four members of the team are Seniors so it leaves two of the squad and also the two alternates as splendid material for next year. We are proud of the boys who won second place for Monmouth, and we hope that next year we can push it up to first. Prove all things is ,A nmnmnnnmnunnnnnnnmnnm ty-0 n nw in Class Prophecy of the Class of '22 Asyamo Ja Qakinn, Tokyo, Japan, April 15, 1932. Dear M. H. S. Classmates: Yesterday as I was searching through my trunk for some books, I came across an old diary that I had written while I was in high school. just think ten years ago we were seniors. Perhaps you did not know that I am in Japan. I am secretary of the Y. W. which has just recently been organized in Tokyo. VVe are now trying to organize Girl Reserves in the high school. By the way, the other day while I was over at the high school, whom should I meet but Louise Shughart, Frances Munson and Hilda Swanson who have just commenced teaching there. Doctor Martha Kettering is doing a wonderful work here. Besides her practice she has several first aid classes of high school girls and women. I read in the Tokio paper that Ernest Lukens and james jared had come over from America and had accepted positions in Mr. Komatsu's ship yards. Speaking of reading the paper, I suppose you are all reading the serial that is running in the American, The Green Square written by Dorothy McDonald? I spent my spring vacation this year in Korea and while l was there I saw john Patton and Harry Landuyt who are medical missionaries. They said they enjoyed their work very much and were having great success. I received a very interesting letter from Beth Carson today. She is pretty busy visit- ing all of the schools and making out examination questions. She has been County Super- intendent for about six years and is finding it difficult to make out examination questions that the pupils don't know. Mildred Johnson is teaching the Law school. Beth also writes that Wiley Clark owns the Rock Island Southern and is making quite a success with it. Well, friends it is late in the afternoon and I have several reports to get in before six o'clock, so I must close and get to work: besides. I am going to hear the noted American lecturer-VValter Mitchell, tonight. Your classmate, IVIARIORIIQ ROOT. 1503 E. XVashington Street, New York City, New York, June 2, 1932, IZ p. m. Dear Pals of '22: VVhen I sat down at my desk this morning and saw june 2 staring me in the face, it came to me like a flash that this is the tenth anniversary of our graduation, and then I realized that the Round Robin was still in my unanswered mail and that I could visit with some old pals of '22. Oh, I haven't changed a hit in the ten years since we left M. H. S. for when the Robin addressed from far-away Japan, came to me two whole weeks ago, I resolved to add my letter at onceg then there was Grand Opera that night and I must hear Gertrude VVhaling whom perhaps some of you do not know is singing in our city this season. I put aside the letter for several tomorrows, just as I used to put off doing things in I-I. till I finally would be forced to use midnight oil. This has been a busy day. and is late, but I'm going to visit with you anyway. I had to cross the city twice today to confer with two of my Civic nurses, Edna Hilsenhoff and 4imm-niI1iiIiinmmmIIuiiniIinummmumiuunmni um me--nn Page Seventy-Two 'FT Myrtle Freeman, who are doing work among the poor of our city. When Mr. Meeker used to talk: about social service work, l never dreamed it could be so fascinating as it is. Rave on, Tink, I can almost hear some one sayg so to be contrary I'll cease at once. June second-I wonder if there ever will be another June day so perfect as was our commencement day in 1922. How dignified we felt marching into the College Auditorium that night and how tired we were before the address was finished. VVe wondered vaguely if we would ever get our diplomas. l remember john took me home that night-I wonder where he is and what he is doing nowg do any of you know? Did any of you dream that Ed VVinship would ever be a minister? il spent last Sun- day in Brooklyn and attended the First Presbyterian church to hear one of Ed's good sermons. Orville Riggs is a member of his church and is now owner of the railroad-the Stationary Express from New Yark to San Francisco. Tomorrow I shall see some other M. H. S. friends. for I've an appointment at the Colonial Beauty Parlors owned by Grace Cavanaugh and Rose I-Iennenfent. Why the ex- travagance? Well, you see I have a date with a university professor tomorrow night, guess who,-Icel Masterson, who is now head coach at Columbia. Speaking of Columbia--the National Swimming Contest for women was held there this year and Nancy Pinkerton won all honors. I chanced upon Margaret Robinson, Bessie Balmer, Theo Darrah and Mildred Smith, the other day just before they sailed for Europe where they expect to spend some time sight seeing, then go on to the Orient. Perhaps they will visit japan and see you, May. I suppose you all read Glenn Cudd's last poem in the Atlantic. I have read several poems of his and think they are great. They certainly make you feel the lure of the moun- tains. VVell,friends,feed the Robin well so that he will keep fat during all his long journey and reach me safely again before many moons. Good night, UTINKH 'Wyanoke Hospital, Richmond, Virginia, june 8, 1932. Dear Friends: Marj and Tink, I was glad to get your letters, and to find out what you were doing, and learn the whereabouts of some of our famous class of '22. I will add my little note to the Round Robin before I go on duty, for these are very strenuous days. I am head nurse here, and love my work, but we are terribly busy most of the time. Ethel Hanna and Elizabeth Dungan finished their nurses training course and were on duty here until about a year ago. Dame Rumor whispers that there is to be a double wedding at the Trinity Methodist Church soon. I also heard that Geraldine Ditto, one of New York's noted designers, was making their trousseaus. However, Gertrude McCrery and Ellen Swanson are taking places so our staff is complete. Our hospital is so crowded that we expect to build an addition to it in the fall. Herville Chewning has the contract and is working on the blue prints now. I see by the Richmond Gazette that Ruby Dennison and Geraldine MeCutchan will be here some time next week to lecture on Woman's Rights . They live in Denver, you know, and are becoming quite prominent in the political world. I was quite surprised the other day when I went to the Art Gallery with a friend of mine to purchase a painting, to find Mary Cook and Ruth Fillman clerking there. You can imagine my further surprise, when Mary showed us a number of paintings, to learn that the artist was Mildred Mosley. I received a bit of news from Hthe old home town yesterday. Mother says that Marion Stice has a new airplane and is carrying the mail between Monmouth and Cameron. lt is time for me to go on duty so I must close.

C., june 25, 1932. Dear Classmates of '22: One of the few luxuries that I still enjoy now that my time is so full, is the answer- ing, with my own pen. my personal letters. And so when the Robin put in his appearance several days ago, I began to scheme for an hour when I could visit with you, for I have some interesting news this time. I suppose you have all been reading the Doris Blake section in the Tribune now edited by ,Iewell KIcCrery? Wlhen I was in the VVhite Mountains recently for a little outing I met Eva Bliss, Mary Brownlee, Mable Martin and Helen Clark. They are going to do Chautauqua work this summer, entertaining as a string quartet. You will all appreciate knowing that Lowell Deen is U. S. Senator from Illinois. He won newspaper notice recently by presenting to the Senate a bill petitioning that Leap Year customs be abolished. I sometimes find our National social functions a bore, but it was a real pleasure to Mrs. Soule and me to give a formal reception at the White House in honor of Major Gen- eral tieorge Graham who paid us a hasty visit from XVest Point. I frequently see Attorney Drain as he is city Attorney in Philadelphia and he often comes here on business. I thoroughly enjoyed your letters and I often think of our High School days-I be- lieve I took more real pride, though in being president of the class of '22 at the high school than I do now in my present capacity as PresidentAat any rate, I know I had more time to call my owng but duty calls here, so I must hasten. Iiill, I hope you will someday represent your state in our Senate. From what Katherine tells us we will no doubt have some of the girls of '22 in our ranks soon too. Of course you all know that our class advisor married an eminent Frenchman while she was abroad the summer of '22. Her husband was elected two years ago Ambassador from France, hence they make their home in our city and I enjoy seeing them frequently, It is high time this Robin was migrating- Sincerely, XNM, SoUL11:, President of U. A. Esterville, Missouri, July 13, 1932. Dear Old Class of 22: Do you remember way back when-. I hardly know what to fill that blank in with because we had such jolly good times in the olden days. My, but the old saying t I'ime flies surely means everything. Here it is ten years past graduation time and it seems as tho it were but yesterday. VVeIl, I believe it is time to start the most important part of the Round Robin before I go Iarther. Iisterville is a peach of a little town, and our friend George Gardner is proprietor of the theatre here, and just last night, who do think I saw- The Portmanteau Players featuring the Misses Dorothy Payne, Margaret Hageman. Marion Hanson, Dorothy Ran- kin, Irene Strand, Mable Reed, and Fanny Smith. Anna Anderson is Domestic Science teacher in Hubbardridge. a small town near here. In this same school Sweden Larson is director of a four piece brass band. In recent years Clarence's nick-name has been changed to 1rish . I cannot understand how it all happened. Remember way hack in 1920 when Clarence Glass had such wonderful Physiology les- sons Cexcepting one day, of coursej. VVell as'time has passed he has become a great musician-playing bewitching, melodious, enchanting music on a one-piece jews-harp. In this snappy little town I am owner and proprietor of Hotel' Allen and have for my waitresses, Alice Boultinghouse, Margaret Frank, Vera Talbot, and Metta Gibb.

Yellowstone Valley Ranch, Billings, Montana, August 10, 1932. Hello Folks: just returned from a visit to old Monmouth. Had a bully good time and saw several of our classmates. John Strand had such a love for M. H. S. that he couldn't stay away, so he is back at the old school taking Mr. Phillips' place. l-le has Doris Lee as his secretary. 'Dean Thomas has a pleasant job as motorcycle cop. Louise'Liby is assistant to Dr. Stott. Josephine Tinder and Josephine Francis are stenographers for the VVestern Boiler Pipe Company. You remember Christine Fielman, you never could guess what she's doing. She's dean at McMichael Home. Oh yes, Louise Mann is dean at Sunnyside. Frances Boggs and Dorothy Moore are proprietors of the Dolly Madison Tea Shop, you probably have heard of it, it is the old Carr home, you know. It would be a crime if I forgot to tell you about Frank Themansong he is Monmoutlfs new mayor. I had a ride with Sticky in his airplane, he is quite an aviator. He took me to Cameron and guess whom we saw! Alden Ryan was in the depot. He is traveling salesman for striped paint and a left-handed monkey wrench. Q Enjoyed your letters, folks. 1 must cut mine short for Bill and I are going on a buf- falo hunt this afternoon. You no doubt k11ew that Bill Berner and I are living on a ranch out here. We're some cowboys, believe me, and hot on the trail of the buffalo.

S. 1 feel a bit older than l did when you used to call me little Willie Hubbard . Say kids, those letters were great. I said, Ch, raspberries, more than once when I read what some of our honored few were doing with themselves. I guess I can give you a line on a few more of our pals, then we'll have about all of them. I suppose you want to know what l've been doing the last ten years, or maybe you don't give a rap, anyway here goes. You remember when I used to go out for debate and all that stuff? VVell, I didn't care much about it as I was thinking about something else. Ever since Old Tommy Ryan gave his exhibition at the high school l had dreams of being a prize fighter. Now my dreams have come true. l have been at it for five years and have been fly-weight cham- pion of the United States for the past three years. What am I doing now? VVell folks l'm just in lnck. l was married August 24th and we are spending our honey-moon in Los Angeles. My bride is the-well it's alright, maybe we'll drop in and see some of you before long and you can decide for yourselves. Floyd Patterson and Herbert McMorris are the owners of the Sunkist Orange and Lemon Ranch. We've been out several times. Some place, I say. Ernest Ryden has a very fine walnut grove near Long Beach, VVe were going past one of the large department stores one day when we looked in the window and what do suppose we saw? Madeline Allen and Genevieve Gardner demonstrat- ing white-shoe blackening. Of course when they saw us and recognized me, we had to go in the store and buy some. No way out of it. Now prepare yourselves for the shock of your lives. Percy Stripe is a movie actor. He lives in Universal City. He is the star in the latest production, Not Far to Millers. He's some actor too.

It was 'silly and cowarly of her to cry, she icnew, but the tears would come. If only something would happen! she thought, wiping a hot tear-drop that trickled down her cheek. Here live been teaching for three months and nobody comes or goes. Not a young person but my little pupils, and not a friend but Mrs. Collins. Sighing, she closed her hot eyes and tried to sleep. This horrid old neighborhood, she muttered. The folks just fight and quarrel all the time. Christmas is coming, and if things were only fight, and there was somebody to start it, we might have a celebration orfor something. She opened her eyes wide a momentg somebody to start it was repeating itself in her mind. No, that somebody isn't you, she added aloud, sharply, as if contradicting a voice. I can't sleep anyhow, she groaned, I might as well plan this thing out once for good and all. Tomorrow we'll see what the cold daylight will do. When I'm done planning perhaps I can go to sleep. The next day the idea persisted even while she was hearing classes. A Christmas of peace on earth and good will among neighbors-f--wouldn't that be worth working for? She would speak to Mrs. Bert Collins, her landlady, about it. Mrs. Collins, however, was not enthusiastic. I dunno, she responded, settling her plump form into a comfortable chair, and taking up her crocheting, as you could get this bunch of folks into any sort of neighborliness. Now, there's Claus Schumann, he was a Pro. A--fwhat 7 ' A Pr0fPro-German, you know, least-ways, everyone thought he was. He didn't want Henry to go to war, and the boys here painted his house yellow. Henry went, though, just the same- -enlisted, I guess. Feel kind of sorry for Mrs. Schumann. She hasn't dared to speak to anybody since. And Henry hasn't come back. The poor thing ! exclaimed Dorothy. Then there's lots of others, continued the woman. My own sisterein-law is' one. Hain't spoke to me for six years. Wan't nothin' I ever done neither. Why don't you speak to her, then Y Me7 Speak to Jane? Say, I'd be a fool to do that. She wouldn't answer mc. What is the reason 7 lsn't any reason that I knows of. Never was, only she got mad one time cause the threshers came here before they went there. Said she'd baked up for 'em, and we made 'em come here first. I didn't have nothin' to do with it, but you should ha' heard the names she called me l Did Bert and Sam take up the quarrel 'V' Well, no, they're friendly enough themselves, I guess. But Jane, she won't let Sam be decent when she's around. So l guess Christmas wouldn't be much with her there. t'Then there's the Beckman's and the Colburns. Pauline Beckman got mad at Ted Colburn a year ago and they ain't speakin'. They used to be the life o' the hull place. Pauline, she would ten to plays and socials and things. She was great on it. And Ted was a grand helper. Ted is nice an' generous, and he was awful sweet on Pauline. Dunno what she could have against a feller like him. Clean and fine as they make 'em. We're a tough lot to do anything with. Dunno as anythin' could make us feel very Christmassy, even il' we was polite. So don't you bother your head about it, Dorothy Hemming. Take my advice and let it be. Dorothy gave her a wistful smile and went on to her room. They need a lot of loving, she mur- mured aloud, and I guess I'll have to love a whole lot myself, just to start it. She sat down quietly in the dusk and thought things out. If I could only get each one of these people to do something, she said at last, they'd come and make a happy Christlnas for themselves and everyone else ! The next afternoon Dorothy turned the key in the school house door early, and set off down the road to Pauline Beckman's. She had met the girl before, but her face was so cold that Dorothy had been chilled. Now, however, she could understand the girl's attitude. Finally she found herself sitting down in the Beckman living room, Pauline opposite her, showing dead-pale in the early twilight, her long black lashes and coal-black hair contrasting with the White- noss ol' her skin. The teacher felt bustling and nervous beside her. I came-came to ask you? stammered Dorothy, about-about a Christmas program, she finished, and breathed hard with relief. You see, continued the young school teacher more boldly, I have never had much experience in anything like this, and someone said you were so good at it, so I thought I would ask your advice. I see. And I brought several plays and dialogues over to talk over with you, she went on, vividly describing ......H................................H.............iH....H...H....H.......1............HV1.U...N....H.u...............m....Hiii......m..H.mn.IIIin.Imin...i......m..wH,..... ....................iH..iii.I...H............,,......i.....i.......i.....,............

Here's a third, Dorothy's eyes were sparkling now, with some children of the woods, whom a group of snow fairies and Santa Claus visited. That gives'enough parts for everyone in the school. Pauline looked the paper over. This is better, she exclaimed. With the little girls as fairies and the little boys as Santas, there would be a good chance for costumes, and children love them! That is a good deal of work, asserted Dorothy doubtfully. Pauline clasped her hands tight, and a bit of pink appeared in either cheek. Perhaps I-I could help you do it, Miss Hemming? Would you let me ? If only someone could help rehearse! I could do that, cried Pauline. Let me help you, Miss Hemming! I'd love to, and it's-it's lonely without something! Dorothy nodded, suddenly very sober. I know, she said with a catch in her voice, I knowl When the parts are assigned, then, you'l1 help me drill the children 7 Pauline had risen, too. I shall he so happy, she agreed. Then she laid her hand on the other's arm impulsively. And Miss Hemming, won't you come over to supper Friday, so we can plan things together Y Plans for the celebration continued rapidly. We're getting on, Mrs. Collins, we're getting on ! sang Dorothy, as she entered the house one night just at supper time. Yes, you be, retorted Mrs. Collins. Can't hear anything from my Sally but Christmas, and what fairies wear, and what will be on the tree for her, and if there will be anything to eat. Eat'Z Why, yes, I suppose so. I hadn't thought much about it. Folks most always like something, went on Mrs. Collins, big and little. And I jes' thot, how nice it woudd be to have a little supper, cake and coffee, and things. I've been talking to some of them, and they all feel that way. Is that so? Good! Did each one say she'd bring something ? Everyone I asked. That wasn't Jane Collins, though, nor Mrs. Schumann neither. Some one else'1l have to ask them. I guess one of the women will ask Jane, but we're all kind of scared to ask Mrs. Schumann, or ashamed, or somethin'. I'll ask her, proffered Dorothy. I'll walk down Saturday and take her the invitation myself. Well, if you do, we'll all be real grateful. Mrs. Schumann is a good woman and she does make the best Christmas cookies you ever tasted. But there is another thing, Dorothy, who's going to get the Christmas tree '! I hadn't thought-but we'll buy it, I suppose. Now, you take my advice again, and let the fellers get you a wild tree from the river. I tell you, Ted Colburn is the feller to ask. Ted would make an awful nice Big Santa, continued Mrs. Collins. You've got little ones to have a dance at the end, haven't you? Why not just then have a jingle of bells, and let in Ted for a big Santa? And not let a soul know. That is a fine idea, Mrs. Collins ! Saturday, true to her word, Dorothy stood at Mrs. Schumann's door and delivered the invitation. The fat little woman looked it over in pleased surprise, then peered at her over her glasses. It iss very nice, she said, waving the painted card. At de school house, it says. Dot iss nice. Setzen Sie, Fraulein. Vill you a cup of coffee haf?, Undt mine cookies. Here is almond cookies, undt odder kinds, Fraulein. Dorothy nibbled thoughtfully, and wondered how to ask her to bring some to the celebration. Do you make many Christmas cookies, Mrs. Schumann Y Once I make many, many cookies, she answered soberly. Now-ach, the neighbors, they not care for mine cookies, undt so I make not many. Mine boy, he like dem so veil. Your boy '! ' Mine boy, ya. She rose and went to the clock shelf. Here is mine boy. He go to sea, in the navy. Proudly she showed his picture, a handsome young fellow in a close collared uniform. Why, he's an officer! exclaimed'the girl, involuntarily. Ya, he officer. Noncommitally she spoke, but one could see she was bursting with pride. Henry, he enlist and go on the big sea. He not come home yet. He iss a gude boy. Dorothy wondered at the iss but did not know how to continue the subject, so she finished her coffee and said, You will come to the Christmas tree, will you not? All the neighbors iss going, ya '! The woman asked the question wistfully. Yes, they are all coming and they want you. They told me to be sure and tell you. A smile came into the woman's eyes. Dey vant me to come? Undt my man, ya? Den, I make cookies, I make many cookies- she spread her arms wide- for all, I make the cookies, undt mostly for the kinder. Henry, he like de cookies, so I make them for the kinder, I make them for him, ya. Undt now, it is a long way to the Collins house. You vill let mine husband take you black. She would not take no for an answer, and soon the cutter came to the door drawn by a sleek bay. As Dorothy was about to get in, Mrs. Schumann held her hand. You vill again come? she asked earnestly. It iss lonely. Mine boy iss gone and now come the young folks no more. But you vill come 7 And Dorothy promised, wiping a little dimness from her eyes at the pathos of it all. ..........................m..m........m-HIimH-mnmmmImmmmlmlIIi..-.-um..m.I..ll...i........-...I-.Im1H......HumH...H...mm..H......HH...--nl-...ll---1InN...I.--.-I-.....-.U--1.Him..-.umnmmu..........mm.....m...........-...mu Page Eighty-Ono .... .. ....................... ....... ....

The tiny school house was strung with streamers of green and redg the lights were bright over the desks where the guests sat, while back of the mysterious red curtain, Ted Colburn's Christmas tree perfumed the air. Dorothy was here, there, and everywhere, giving a pat one place, and a warning another. Now and then a new group came in, and there were happy greetings of Merry Christmas ! Once there was a ripple of greater excitement when the Schumann's entered, with laughing and shaking ol' hands, but Dorothy was with Pauline, and could not see. At last the curtain was drawn, and the program really commenced! Every piece was received with enthusiasm. It did not matter if Johnny Baker forgot his, they ap- plauded just the same, or that the song rang out of tune, and had to be brought back by the teacher's sweet voice. Every Christmas wish was re-echoed, though the faces of a few were still wistful. Then the little play started, and came to a close when the fairies drew before the woods-children the hidden Christmas tree, lighted the candles and danced about the wondering ones right merrily. Suddenly the outer door opened-there was a jingle of bells, and a Big Santa came in! Such a scrambling then! Sqealing with surprise and delight, the children, Santa's fairies and all tumbled out from behind, and under, and around the branches, until suddenly, what with little space and the crowding pupils, over went the tree! Then there was consternation! Santa righted it at once, though little flames sprang up from the paper and pine. But Jane Collins, prompting from the entry, was the first to see that a burning paper had brushed the fairy gown of Sally Collins, and she was on fire! She ran out and caught the child, smothering the flames in her own wool dress, and Pauline ran to help Santa put out the burning tree. Dorothy was there, and Mrs. Collins. So was everybody, it seemed. They were all talking at once, and the first thing anyone knew, the Collins sisters-in-law were holding hands and wiping away the tears and Big Santa was talking to Pauline Beckman, who looked as if a little bit of heaven had dropped right down into her shining black eyes! At last the hubbub was over, the presents distributed, and the Collins women, together, were pour- ing hot coffee into extended cups, and passing cakes and cookies. Mrs. Schumann was there too, bless her, hunting for Dorothy, while she led in tow a big blond fellow. It iss mine poy, mine Henry, explained the plump little woman. He iss come back from the navy, and he say now he vill stay alretty yet l Dorothy's face was bewildered. Your--son, she faltered. I supposed he had been killed. Not on your life, laughed the young man. But I enlisted for several years, and my term is just over. So I've come back home-to stay. And I'm mighty glad that there is someone here to be a friend to my mother. When the little supper was done, and the getting-acquainted just started for Dorothy, there was a little gathering of men and women in the rear, with some earnest talking. Bert Collins stood up. Folks, he said, clearing his throat with an effort, we've been thinking back here that this gath- ering is the best thing tbat's happened to us for a long time. But there's one thing that seems wrong to usg this school house is too small and too crowded for a thing of this sort. Blank amazement on some faces. What we propose is, that instead of this place, we build a community club house: you may have a piece of my land, joining the school yard on the west to build it on. Then there was talk, but Sam Collins had risen, and held up his hand. There'll be lots of work to do, and a good deal of material to be used, he added. Every person will have a chance to contribute. I will give you part of my standing timber for the building, and the use of a man and team for a time. How many will do the same? I Will! And I! And I! came a half a dozen voices. There was a wheeze, and Mr. Schumann rose. Chentlemen and ladies, I gif you two hundred dol- lars to help finish up inside wid! Good for you, Schumann X cried one: and then followed more donations. At last Bert stilled them once more. Before we go home, people, I think we owe a rising vote of thanks to our little schoo1ma'am, Miss Dorothy Hemmingf' Finally the school room was emptied, save for those who were helping clear the place. Henry Schu- mann was the last of those to leave, and it was he who put out the lights and turned the key in the door. Together he and Dorothy walked the few steps to the Collins home under the twinkling stars. There are lots of friendly folks in the world, aren't there? she said, looking up at the countless number of heaven's lights. Yes, but it needs someone to find them out. Your name is Dorothy, isn't it? Do you know that means, 'Gift of God' ? That's what you've been to this community. And I'rn hoping you are going to stay awhile, and we may have some good times together, and-and know each other better. Do you think we may? And Dorothy happily nodded, yes. MILDRED McKEE, '24.

The Cub Reporter Henry Jones was just graduating from High School, and like many young men of his age was casting about for some occupation so that he might support himself and his parents. They were a family in moderate circumstances but since the factory in which Mr. Jones had worked had closed down nearly a year before, it had been pretty hard work for them to make both ends meet. Hen- ry knew that they had sacrificed so that he might stay in school, so he determined that he must make good in some line of work in order to in some measure repay them. He decided to give up all hope of going to college: which hope he had cherished for years However, they had sacrificed for him, and now it was his turn. The town in which they lived was a very small town, and like most small towns afforded no great opportunities for young men. There was a factory but now that was closed. Besides that, there was nothing but perhaps work in a grocery store or a lumber yard. Neither of these jobs looked very enticing to Henry. Mr. Hopkins, Principal of the High School, had become interested in Henry and had asked him to come and consult him concerning his future work. He decided to go to see Mr. Hopkins at once. On Monday evening Henry called on Mr. Hopkins. Come right in, said Mr. Hopkins. I thought I am glad you came, Henry, I may I would follow your suggestion to come and talk to you. he able to be of help to you and I may not. Have you decided on anything definite as yet? No, I have not. I have thought of become. I had thought pretty seriously You had some experience along that Yes, I edited the school paper last After a prolonged conversation it was decided that Mr. Hopkins would communicate of his, Mr. Smith, who lived in a near-by city and see if he could obtain a position for many different jobs but the more I think the more undecided I however, of newspaper work. line in school did you not? inquired Mr. Hopkins. year and enjoyed the work immensely, answered Henry. with a friend Henry in 'the office of the Morning Sun, which paper Mr. Smith owned. A few days later Mr. Hopkins phoned Henry that he had received a reply from Mr. Hen ry reached Smith. When Mr. Hopkin's house, he learned, much to his surprise and joy, that he was to be given a chance as reporter for the Morning Sun. After thanking Mr. Hopkins for his kindness, he hurried home at once to tell the news to his parents. I've a position at last, Mother, he exclaimed. 'Tm glad, Henry, that you have a position, but I hate to have you leave home. Don't worry, Mother, I'll get along fine, and I'll come home as often as possible. The following Monday, Henry reported at the office of the Morning Sun. Mr. Johnson, the city editor, to whom Henry's letter of introduction was addressed, was seated at a desk at the far end of a long, narrow room which was cluttered up with desks and waste paper baskets. At the desk was a proof-reader, reading allg accepting some: and throwing out many writings which were submitted. Down stairs the great presses were running. making a terrible racket. Henry felt very small indeed, standing there alone. No one paid any heed to him, so he proceeded to the desk of the city editor. Are you Mr. Johnson 7 he asked of the man seated there. Yes, said the man. Here is a letter of introduction, sir. Mr. Johnson adjusted his glasses and glanced thru the letter. Any experience Y he inquired. A little in High School, sir, replied Henry. Mr. Johnson turned him over to an assistant who showed him to the desk which he was to occupy when he was writing up his reports. The following weeks were weeks of misery for Henry. Try as he would he could not get much news and could not all they were couraged when No, sir, You soon the steel man, satisfactorily write up that which he did get. If his articles appeared in the paper at changed so much that he could scarcely recognize them. He was getting pretty dis- one day the editor rushed into the room in a fury.

It is reported that 'he has bought him out, but no one can get the straight dope. Our best reporters have failed in this job. Here is your chance. If you succeed you will be rewarded. You have until next Monday night to give us a full story. Good-bye, good luck. Henry was so bewildered he did not know what to do. Gradually he awoke to the fact that here was his chance to make good. With renewed enthusiasm he set out to get the story. He found it impossible to get thru the impregnable defense of office boys at the offices of McNamara Xt Co. Day after day he tried but with no success. Finally, discouraged, he went for a long walk in the residence district and tried to plan some way to see Mr. McNamara. One very impressive looking home especially attracted his attention. Upon approaching the stone block on the curb, he saw the name McNamara. While he was there he saw a man past middle age approach an upstairs window and pull down the curtain. That must be my quarry, murmured Henry. He knew that it was useless to try to gain entrance through that large plate glass door. That night, in his room, he hit upon a desperate plan. It was worth trying. Things couldn't be worse. On Wednesday morning, the last day of grace, Henry was on hand at the McNamara home obout four o'clock armed with a long ladder. Stealthily he approached the house, raised the ladder to the window where he had seen the man the day before, and started upward. When he reached the window he saw that a bed was near the window and the man was serenely sleeping upon it. Noiselessly he raised the window, entered the room, and took on position of vantage astride the prostrate form of Mr. McNamara. To say the least, Mr. McNamara upon awakening, was surprised and greatly annoyed. He started a terrified yell which was quickly muffled by a handkerchief stuffed in his mouth by Henry. Soon he quieted down and lay glaring at Henry who still maintained his position. 'I'm here for business, sir, said Henry. 'Tm a cub reporter for the Morning Sun, and I want your story of the deal between you and Gibson. I admit this is sort of a crude way of getting it, but it means a lot to me. It's my chance to make good. I intend to stay he-re until I get the story or get thrown out. Do I get the story ? An emphatic shake of the head answered his question. They glared at each other for some time in silence, then the older man motioned for Henry to remove the handkerchief from his mouth. ' Well, young man, he said, when the handkerchief had been removed, this is rather serious busi- ness, breaking into a man's house and making demands of him. Yes it is, said Henry, but I have to have that story. They remained silent again until gradually the ridiculousness of the situation began to dawn upon them. Hal Ha! Hal laughed Mr. McNamara, this is one on me. Indeed it is, said Henry who was still perched upon the older man. Soon they were laughing like good fellows. You win, son, said the older man, finally, you get the story. Thank you so much, sir. It is really important to me. I was willing to take long chances. I am sorry if I have caused you any inconvenience. Nothing very serious, replied Mr. McNamara, do you know, I had determined to give my story to the paper today anyway, so I am glad to give it to you. As soon as I dress, we will go down and have breakfast together. An hour later Henry left the house in the best of spirits and with the story in his coat pocket. He hastened to the office, copied his story and turned it over to the editor. The editor, dazed with the success of the cub reporter, was profuse in thanks and words of admiration. The next day Henry's parents received the following telegram: Will be home tomorrow for two weeks' vacation on full pay. Am leaving newspaper officer Have accepted position of private secretary to McNamara Sz Co.fHenry. CHARLES LAWRENCE, '23 .I 1I.....................................................l..-..

The membership has been doubled, also the interest, This organization is now ranked, with the hundreds of others of its kind, as a national organization. The follow- ing code, which represents the three sides of the triangleg spiritual, mental and physical, was recently adopted: I will keep my sympathies warm and my spirit alert, for l would hear the King when l-le calls me to service. l will train my intellect that it may do my bidding, for great tasks await me. I will keep my body clean and strong, for it is the temple of the l-loly Spirit. The girls are trying to make this the most worthy organization in school by living their code. and by following their motto: All the time, any time, ever able and willing. Three members and one advisor attended the Girls' Conference at Dewey Lake, Michigan, last summer and brought back many new ideas and lots of pep The biggest undertaking this year was the furnishing of a Christmas tree and gifts for more than two hundred needy children.

PRINCETON 12-IVIONMGUTI-I 0 On October 1, 1921, Monmouth's untried bunch of aspiring football players met unlooked for opposition from Princeton, going down to defeat in the first game of the season. The team seemed to be unable to get together and play real football. This, along with a few bad football breaks and a slight dose of over- confidence, was probably responsible for the defeat. In spite of the lack of ex- perience the team showed promise of future ability. KEWANEE 7-IVIONMOUTH 32 On the Sth of October the team went to Kewanee and came back in more ways than one. With the whole team playing together and everybody showing lots of pep, Stripe smashed the ball over the goal line within the first two minutes of play. The Monmouth offensive netted four more touchdowns before the final whistle blew. At the first atempt to use the Osborne Shift Captain Drain broke through the Kewanee line and ran forty yards for a touch- down. Besides the brilliant offense the team displayed a stubborn defense, keeping the Kewanee score down to seven points. Both line and backfield played real football. ROCK ISLAND 14+MONMOUTI-l 20 Playing their first home game on October 15th, Coach Niergarth's bunch of scrappers provided the surprise of the season and defeated the confident Rock Island team. At the end of the first half, the visitors faced a three touchdown lead which they were unable to overcome. Monmouth had an aggressive spirit that could not be beat. Captain Drain carried the ball over the goal line twice on the shift play. Rock Island received the following kickoff and fumbled the ball near the goal line. As it rolled over, Buck fell on it making our third touch- down. In the last half Rock Island opened up with passes making two touch- downsg Monmouth then tightened up, and the final whistle found the Maroon and Gold the victors by a 20 to 14 score. 111.11111111111-11...1111.....1.1-....1...11...1.1111111.111.111111111..1111.1.111...11.1111.1.1.11.1....11.11111111111111.1........11.1.. Page Ninety-Eight PEORIA MANUAL O-MONMOUTH 49 On the following Saturday, October 22nd, the home spectators again wit- nessed an overwhelming victory. Peoria Manual was unable to combat the pep and hght of our team. The Maroon and Gold romped up and down the field seemingly at will, making one touchdown in the first quarter, two in the second, one in the third and three in the fourth. Peoria was unable to gain through our men at all. Every player was worthy of just praise and glory. If any special feature of the game could be picked out, it would probably be the sensational open field running of Walters. The game ended with Peoria Manual snowed under by 49 points. BURLINGTON 7AM0NMOUTI-I 42 At Burlington, Iowa, on October 29th, the team was again victorious. The Hawkeyes were unable to hold our team at all. Monmouth gained thru the Burlington line, around ends and by forward passes. The forwards opened up gaping holes in the Burlington line and the backfield took full advantage of them. The Iowa team was greatly out-played during most of the game. The final score was 42 to 7, Burlington getting but a single touchdown. MACOMB 24-MONMOUTI-I 0 The team suffered the second defeat of the year on November 5th. Ma- comb's clever combination of line bucks and forward passes was too much for us. Nevertheless the game was a scrap from start to finish and Macomb had to fight for every foot of the ground they gained. Although the score was against us, the game was no disgraceg for every man did his best and fought his hardest. The only axplanation for the score seemed to be that Lady Luck was A. W. O. L. QUINCY 0-MONMOUTI-I 0 Handicapped by the absence of Drain, probably the best ground gainer on the team, the eleven was unable to maintain a consistent offensive. However the defensive play was great. The team fought all the time, not permitting Quincy to score, and held magnificently at the critical moments. Quincy's principal gains were made by onside kicks and forward passes, while the fast Monmouth 'backs' were slowed up by the soft and slippery field. Fighting against these adverse conditions the team was unable to score and the game ended a scoreless tie. GALESBURG 7-MONMOUTI-I 2 Playing with the breaks of the game against them the team was unable to produce the much desired win from Galesburg on Thanksgiving Day. The Monmouth defense was stubborn and at times even brilliant. Early in the first quarter Monmouth scored two points on a safety when Rosey tackled a Gales- burg man behind his own goal. After being given the ball on a penalty on Monmouth's 28-yard line, Galesburg managed to make the cnlv touchdown of the game. In the last quarter the team opened up with forward passes, but the whistle blew before the Maroon and Gold could score. r..IH...H.H.......H...HH...mm...Hmm-mr.II..,HI.IHI..I..........HH.HH.-..................-rm...Hin.IH..II..-.rr.....................H..imm......................HH................................H................-.....mr...H.............H...-......i......,....i Page Ninety-Nine .... .,.... .,.....i....3..5,.E...T...L?...H...E.........g..TE...H...g..U...E...:F..:i:..E....iT,....i...g..5...5...,,,,,. The Team CAPTAIN DRAIN Captain Drain was a stellar performer at fullback. Picking holes with unusual skill, and always an aggressive player he was a very consistent ground gainer and could always be counted on to advance the ball. His courage and fighting spirit gained the ad- miration of teammates and opponents alike. CAPTAIN QELECD BUCK Although he started out with no experience, Buck rapidly developed into a good end and a crafty football player. He was very successful at breaking up end-runs and running down punts. He will undoubtedly make a good captain for next year's team. I-IAYNES Haynes was a fast and aggressive tackle. He showed an extraordinary ability to get in and muss up plays at the start, and was often down on punts as soon as the ends. The ability to kick goals and a good boot on the kickoff were also of much value to the team. Rosey was a scrapper and never missed a minute of any game. I' DEEN At first inexperienced, Deen proved himself an aggresive and - k dependable guard. Frequently he broke through and downed the 3 A man with the ball before he could get started.

Pzure One Hundred P Although handicapped at the first of the year by lack of ex- perience, Berner developed into a capable football player. He had more speed than the average guard and used it to advantage. His playing at guard was always steady and consistent. Walters played a good game at both half and end. He was a speedy man on end runs and was always dependable on the defense. His specialties were picking off the runner and grabbing forward passes. ...W .... .... .... ...iii..,H.E........g...f..E..i2i...g..U...E,.,:l:...LF.,E.,,.E ...... .... ..E...5,...,.....,,. STRAND Strand playing at center was a tower of defense in the line and a rallying point for our defense. He passed the ball accurate- ly, took care of his man, broke up plays, and in general played a superior game of football. BERNER LEWIS Lewis at tackle was immovable on defense. Cn the offense he used his weight skillfully and seemed to have little difficulty in re- moving his man when a hole was desired. He was always eager to have plays run off right tackle.

MASTERSON lVlasterson playing his first year at end showed marked ability. He caught forward passes when it seemed impossible and could always be relied upon to ditch the interference on end runs. He was also a speedy halfback and could hold down that position when called upon to do so. WINSHIP Winship at quarter proved himself an able field general. He handled the ball well and never got rattled or became excited in the heat of the game. Although he was not a flashy player his qualities of coolness, steadiness, and reliability were an unlimited asset to the eleven. STRIPE Having proven his ability as a lineman, Stripe entered the backfield and proved that he was equally able there. He carried the ball with exceptional ability, and was an invaluable man in backing up the line. Percy was probably the best all round foot- ball player on the squad. GRANT Grant at the first of the year was handicapped by injuries. Later on his speed and punch at half back proved a decided asset to the team. His skill in throwing long passes accurately was almost uncanny. The all-round football ability which he displayed ranks him as a player of exceptional power. LARSON Larson played a good game at end. He demonstrated his ability to go into the game at any time and put up a scrap. ln spite of lack of experience he was a reliable end.

Beginning the year with only two letter men, he developed a team which always played real basketball, and whose floor work and style of play were A. No. l in character. While the students of Monmouth High School honor each one of the members of the team, they appreciate the part that good coaching had in making it a winner. Monmouth played I3 games on the regular schedule, winning 7 and losing 6. We scored 26 more points than our opponents, and in return games defeated every team to which we had lost, excepting one. Galesburg in her return game defeated us by a lone point. We are proud of this record and especially proud of the team that made it. The first game of the year was played with Kirkwood in the Armory on December l7. Kirkwood was outclassed throughout the game and we won easily by a large score. The next game with Corpus Christi on the 22nd, showed the need of more experience but Monmouth again won. The first game after Christmas vacation was played in Abingdon, January 6. The score at the end of the game was reported to be 27 to 26 in our favor and the Maroon and Gold players left the floor thinking they had won. Shortly after an error was discovered in the score book and the game was declared a tie at 26 all. An overtime period was played which gave the victory to Abingdon by 3 points. The following evening we defeated Aledo here, our team being too fast for the visitors. The next week the team went to Macomb receiving the only bad defeat of the season. We were unable to locate the basket or to break up the speedy offensive play of Macomb. Friday and Saturday, January 20 and 21 were red letter days. On Friday, Abingdon was beaten by I5 points, and on Saturday evening, we evened the score with Macomb in one of the fastest and hardest fought battles of the season. The game was close throughout but ...............inni............1......................................V..........................1.1........i........................................... ............. mi... .....I.II........in......................................,............,................i.. Page One Hundred Five- a rally in the last quarter clinched the victory for us, fthe count being 21 to l7J. On Friday, February 3rd, the team again played at home giving a treat to the fans and silencing all possible critics by another decisive victory. Kewanee was unable to break up our teamwork or pierce our defense. At no time during the game was there any doubt as to the outcome. The next evening the team lost to Galesburg in the G. H. S. gymn. Handicapped by a very small floor, and unaccustomed to the wobbly baskets, we played at a decided disadvantage. These facts together with the fast game on the preceding night probably account for the defeat. The next Friday a small gymn brought the same result at Aledo. Most of the regulars were being saved for the coming battle with Peoria on Satur- day and the substitutes were unable to cope with the Aledo team. The game with Peoria was probably the most spectacular of the season. With the Peoria team in the lead at the half with what looked like a sure winner, the Maroon and Gold came back with a supply of fight and pep that overwhelmed the visiting quintet and sent it home in defeat. The game with Galesburg in which we lost by one point was disappointing to everybody. The team fought hard and came across with a brilliant last minute rally that should have gained the victory. The last game of the scheduled season was played with Kewanee the last Friday in February. With Monmouth ahead almost up to the end of the game, a lucky shot from the middle of the floor in the last minute of play gave the victory to Kewanee. The game was hard fought and in no way a reproach to the team. Monmouth's first District Basketball tournament was held in the Armory March 2, 3 and 4. Qur team was runner-up in the tournament. The game with Macomb T. C. for the championship of the district was lost by one point. All of our other games were Won easily. Avon lost to us by a 47 to I8 score and Alexis was overwhelmed by 40 points. In the Macomb game we were unable to get started in time to overcome our opponents, lead. Our forwards being unable to locate the basket, the score was 9 to 5 at the end of the first half. The first of the second half Macomb dropped in two baskets increasing the lead to eight points. When the team did get its stride it was too late. The game ended leaving us one basket short of victory. The game with Bardolph, the runners- up in Class B, was a walk away. Bardolph was swamped by a Hood of 46 counters. A survey of all the games played during the year shows that Monmouth has a total of 475 points in contrast to the 336 made by her opponents and a sum of I0 games won and 8 lost, The record is above the average and is an honor to Monmouth High School. f 1 -v Page One Hundred Six mm11Hwwwwwwmmmww11wwwwwwwwwwwwNW1VL111mnmlmnmmmmmnmmmnmfLIVInmnunnnmmm1WmmnnmuHIIIIII1IIIIIIIIIIIII.IIIrnunlnnnnnunumVHIIII1I11umumunnnnmvHV1Immmmnmmm.VIIIIIIIIIIIIII4uunnmnmunum 2-THE SILHOUETTEY1 .......,......... ..................................,.................. mmmmnnnnmLI1I11111IIIIIIInIIIIIIIIIIIIII14.1IIII111I1IIummIIIIII.mummmlmmn1nnnn1I1IInIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIHInm11IIIIIIIIIIInnnuIIIIIIInnunuumnmmmw 1 nmmmnmmummlmmmmmunn III1IIIIIII1Inmmimunumm mmmwIIII1Inu1IIIIIIIIIII1III1mmmnmmmNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIInunnnnnnnnnIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIInIIIIIIIIII1I1nIIIml11nnnnIn1nn111IIIIIIIImu1vv1I1IInInllllIIImummmmnmn Page One Hundred Scvcn IImi111I1Iumumn---mnummumn-vu Immmnummmummmu in-umm vmnuummuu num-nnmnn 1IIIIIInuuvI1IIIIIIInnnumumnnmmmn um aims s1LHoUE'TTeH - l 9 2 2 1 - Basketball Players Capt. Holliday at center played a superior game. He had a dead eye' f b k ' ' ' or as ets and he certainly could go up in the air after the ball. It was a pleasure to watch Lawrence at forward. He was fast, clever, a sure shot, and handled the ball in faultless style. Stice was a reliable center. His height was an advantage on the tip off and he played a type of basketball that could be depended on. lVlasterson's floor work was exceptional. He seemed to be everywhere at once, breaking up the opponents plays, intercepting their passes and working the ball toward the basket. Ike played forward and frequently dropped in some long shots that took your breath away.

Drain at back guard was inval bl ua e to the team in getting the ball off the bankboard and passing it to the forwards. The opposing forwards seldom got a second shot at the basket. Gray was a basketball player to be feared and respected. He was big rangy, hard to guard, and hard to get away from. He usually played center. Strand always had lots of pep and fight. He seemed to be tireless as a Hoor guard and played a hard game from start to finish. Billy was the mascot. He was always loyal to the team and was just as sympathetic when the boys lost as h h e was appy when they won. III'mminmmmIIIIIIIIIninnniimimm:uumum-nummmm.-mmlm Page One Hundred Nine Dec. Dec. Jan.

I8 II Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Monmouth Class Basketball Tournament The annual class tournament was very successful. The rule requiring each class to lose two games before being eliminated, gave all the teams a chance to show their real ability. The tournament was begun on March 30, when the Juniors and Seniors met in the High School gymnasium. Coached by lVlr. Lee, the juniors put up a hard fight and kept the score close until the second half when Mr. Long's proteges rallied and piled up the score against them. In the second game of the tournament the Sophomores won a two-point vic- tory from Mitchell Holliday's Freshman team which, nevertheless, played a fast game and made the second year men work for all their points. The game between the winners of the first two contests brought its only de- feat to the Sophomore team which was going strong under the expert coaching of lVlr. Phillips. After some fast basketballfthe final whistle left the Seniors vic- torious by a single point. The two classes which had lost at first then played and the Freshmen succeeded in eliminating the Juniors. However, in the following game the Freshmen were in turn defeated by their rivals the Sophomores, who re- mained to contest the championship with the Seniors. This they did successfully in the following game. The Seniors spoiled their good record by losing I8 to I5. It was a battle from start to finish but the long shots of the Sophomores were too much for the graduating class. Both teams having now lost once the championship was decided by another game. ln this final game the Sophomores got the jump on the Seniors and maintained their lead to the end in spite of their opponent's last quarter rally. This made the class of l924 the high school champions. The class had a good team, made up of good men, and coached by a good coach. They deserved the title which they won in five hard-fought games. Congratulations, Sophomores! Considering the fact that very little practice was had by the respective teams, a good grade of basketball was played and there should be an abundance of material for Monmouth High School in the future.

Mon- mouth placed third, being surpassed by but two of the nine schools represented. Captain Holliday won first in the 440 yard dash. Don Vance finished third in the 220 low hurdles, and Percy Stripe won third place in both the high and broad jumps. Our relay team composed of White, Grant, Vance, and Holliday carried off the honors in the half mile relay, this being the second consecutive time that Monmouth has won that event at the Big Eight meet. In the Monmouth College meet a lot of eleventh hour candidates came out and showed that M. H. S. had an abundance of track material. Of the regular team, Vance won first in the l20 high hurdles and tied for third in the 220 low hurdles. Grant placed third in the hundred, Stripe won second in the broad jump and a third in the high jump. Gray won a second in the pole vault and Holliday beside his usual first in the 440, won a second in the hundred. Additional honors were won by those who had not gone out for the regular track team. Holt placed second in the quarter and third in the half mile. Van Gundy won third in the 50 and 220 yard dashes and I-lankens placed second in the 220. Winship tied with Vance for third in the 220 low hurdles and Briley won second in the javelin throw. White, Grant, Hankens and Holliday won second place in the relay. The sum of these points gave Monmouth second place in the meet. Although its activities were greatly limited by a lack of funds, the team made a good showing in the meets in which it was entered. The men who earned their track M's were: Captain Holliday, Percy Stripe, Don Vance, Leland Grant, and Lee White. ..-...in-......-r.........mm..i,...

Shall I do it in poetry or in prose? l believe I ean tell you better in prose and make it more clear. So here goes. Un this evening, at six-thirty o'elock, the Lincoln Debate Club held their Founder's Day banquet. About thirty-two couples were there to enjoy the delicious dinner and the snappy program which followed it. Xlilliam Soule the president of the club, acted as .toastmaster and introduced the speakers in a very clever fashion. Mr. Phillips told how things looked f'By the Vkfayside Lookin' On g john C. Allen, Ir., told how it felt to be f'On the Far Side Lookin' ln g XVillis Hubbard. On the Inside Lookin' Out : George Graham. From the Top Lookin' 0n g Marshall Briley, l'From the Inside Lookin' Out g and Max Rogers, From the Bottom Lookin' Up. Mr. Niergarth played a Cornet solo and Blake Root played several selections on the violin which were very enjoyable. The surprise of the evening was then sprung. During the program the college 'tmob celebrating their victory over Knox, came up and yelled for them tthemselves and usj. lt is planned that the banquet shall be held each year and if they are all as great a success they will certainly be entertaining affairs. February 17-Although it is a few days past St. Valentine's day, we had a Valentine party. VK'e Excelsior girls were delightfully entertained by Miss Ewan and Miss VN'illiams. The first thing we had, was a heart hunt, and we sure had to hunt, diary, for they were hid everywhere. But it was worth it since we were allowed to eat all that we found. Of course we made Valentines, some of which were very artistic in design. Later our fortunes were told by throwing a ball through a heart. The fortunes were sure keen. For exampleg Mar- jorie ,lloot was to he married as soon as she was out of school. Genevieve Gardner was told that she would be an old maid. Delicious refreshments of ice cream and heart shaped cookies were served by the hostesses. liveryone left tired but happy, April 7-Tonight, diary, I went to the ,Iunior Class play. l'Mr. Bob . It certainly was a clever play and well worked up. The respective parts were certainly well taken, from the maid, played by Sarah Mary XYitt, to Mr. Browne played by Henry Buck, who was so generally misunderstood. April 21-This was the night of nights, diary. At seven-thirty the fun began and there were over fifty present to enjoy it. Hut you will want to know what it was. The annual Senior Class Party. A number of games and stunts, among them charades, were played, lf you ean't imagine Forest Lewis and john Strand representing the llig 4 you should have been there diary. The silhouettes were easily guessed although a mistake was made once in awhile. Later in the evening refreshments of strawberry ice crtain and wafers were served. At a late hour we departed to the tune of flood Night Ladies. ' April 28fThe gala -occasion of the year tin each Sophomore's mindj. Needless to say it was the Sophomore party. There were many good addresses given at the party. Among them was a speech given by Mary XYarfield who spoke on the subject, YYhy lYe Should Oil Our Streets. Donald Beste also spoke on his favorite topic, The City Klanager Plan of tiovernmentf' Julia Buck and Max Rogers then rendered a duet accompanied by Marion Jacobs on the dumbbells. The evening was closed by a five course luncheon consisting of toast, orange ice, more toast, chocolate wafers and still more toast. The decorations of orange and black, the class colors, were very pretty. May 5-Promptly at 7:30 on the evening of May 5 all the happy-faced freshmen dressed in gay, new frocks and new spring suits assembled in the High 'School Gymnasium for their first party. i.iii..my.H......i......-1.....H1....H......,..i.i.w.ii.ii.. ---- it.imMoll...-iiiii... .W1imiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiii.. in ....o...m.. it i i i .mi ii .........m4........

Nothing short of a calamity could have kept one of them at homeg for had not they been planning all year just what they would wear, with whom they would come, and a dozen other details! Then, too, the party was to be a trip around the world, and oh! the joy of such a long trip i11 the company of such delectable friends. The fun began with a jolly game of American Slap--Iackg then they journeyed to Scotland to see the Highland-Fling. Of course they could not miss Ireland's famous clog- dancing. They found French fashions a pleasant change from the hilarity of Ireland. Italy's music charmed for a whileg then the statnary of Greece held all spell-bound. Quaint Gri- ental japanese ladies sang the farewell that ended this joyous trip. When they were all back in the gymnasium once more they were served good Ameri- can ice cream and cake. Home Sweet Home warned the Freshmen that it was ten o'clock and that their first party was over. May 8-The Annual junior-Senior Banquet was held in Gymnasium of the High School. The program was based on Peter Pan and a woods setting was used. Blue and gold, the Senior colors were used in decorating. The following was the program: DO YOU BELIEVE IN FAIRIES ?

The bet he made with his business partners, and the trouble he got into with his partners, his friends and his fiancee is the theme of the story.

Our Alumni When the flowers of springtime scent the air with fragrance sweet, Can be heard the merry laughter as our High School seniors meet, Can be heard the frequent question, Say, what you going to do? I expect to go to college, hope that you may do so too. Long ago in l890 in a class that numbered nine, Seniors asked that selfsame question, and have asked it since that time, Every year our seniors ask it when they leave dear M. H. S. Hoping to be great world leaders, expecting surely great success. Many of their dreams are realized, much the glory and the fame That has come to our alumni honoring the High School's name. There are preachers, doctors, teachers, many walks of life are blessed By those from Monmouth High School who work and live their best. When the flowers of the springtime scent the air with fragrance sweet Can be heard their merry'voices as our I-ligh School seniors meet, And the winds waft in a greeting to the Class of 22, From Alumni who are saying, We expect great things from you. .............mi.mimmnmmnmumimiw---mimimmm...mm.....m.....i Page One Hundred Thirty-Two . ,...,,.. .... .... .HTl:...iti...Emu,,ig,.,i...E..E..g..U..E...:F..2iL..E...E...,.i .... 6...E...5........

The announcement reads: To the Teachers: There will be an important teachers' meeting at 3:40. Room 116. Please be prompt.

Marshall came in the front door and happened to see me. VVell, he came back there and began kidding me. Now that sort of thing should be stopped. Mr. Fillups-You are right. I shall ask Marshall's Drug Store to keep Mr. Brylie occupied until you and Miss Oeleson are through eating. Miss Kraine-Mr. Principal, I have an awful time keeping Gerald Milar from talking in my 6th hour library. l wish you could cause him to cease. Mr. Fillups-lt shall be done. I think that a good yardstick will do wonders with these people who talk in the Library all the period. Miss Huntre4I wish to report that Rholand Mclionnal is using a Verified Transcription in getting his Latin. Mr. ,laxun-Yes, and in my 6th hour History class I can't keep Hiren Zae from going to sleep. Merle Koolie does his best to keep him awake by means of a pin, but the scrap that always results is worse than Biren's snores. Mr. Fillups4l realize that this sleeping and dreaming in class is getting to be a serious thing. It will have to be stopped. Miss Beyaires-Yes, but you don't want to blame the boys too much. I know they don't do all the sleeping in class. The other day Opal Henderson sat in my class and dreamed about someone all period. And that day wasn't the first time that has occurred. Miss Sermon-I have almost the same trouble, only a little different. Yesterday Percy Stripe went to sleep at his typewriter. Now he is a pretty good typist and when he went to sleep he kept right on writing. The worst part was that when I went over to see what he was writing he was working away on a letter to Irene. Miss Tennente-Mr. Fillups, I think that these Memory Books should be kept out of the High School. ln my Civics class yesterday john Paten sat all period trying to think what to write in some girl's Memory Book, Mr. Llong-wl wish that you could make Ed Wiiisliip study his physics lesson one night a week instead of regularly visiting the College Dorm. VVhy, they say that he is out there nearly every night. Mr. Fillups-I was just talking to Dr. McMichael about that very thing. He says they are going to enforce a law prohibiting College girls from going with High School boys. Miss Browne-If that's the case, Ed won't be the only one. That rule will strike Chick Laurense and Blake Rute pretty hard. I understand they go out there quite often. ...Hn....,..................H...................tt.......................ii....................it..............................t...............itiiitm.....i.....Hit.it..........i.......i.........................................................,................,.............t... Page One Hundred Thirty-Six M r. Nl r. Mr. M r M r. M r M r Meeker-l don't approve of having the Baud interfere with classes the way it has been doing the last few weeks. The other day when l was giving a test in one of my classes Wilye Spiser and Klaran Frue got up and left when the period was about half over so they could play in the band. Now I think that Economics is more important than the band. NeargirthANo sir, that isn't right. The Band is the most important organization in this school. VN'hy just look what it has done for some of the boys. Frederick Strong's lungs have grown three inches since he started. And Olan Keastar's arm is six inches longer than it was three months ago. And it is because he hits sixth position on his trombone several times a week. Meakre4But how about Bill NValters flunking Economics because he has to leave class often. NeargirthfThat may be, but what of it? XVhy Andy Haidan has lost 10 pounds since he started playing a bass horn. Meakre-That's alright but just the same Economics is more important than any band. VVhy thel Neargarth-That's not right. XVhy I played in a band for ll years and never took Economics, and look who I- Fillups-Here, peace, cease. You must not argue like this-. Teachers meeting is adjourned. VVe will take up this discussion next week. EPTLOGUE Time-Next Day. Place-Same. The bell on the much fabbused telephone is heard to ring. VVhen it is answered the following important message is delivered. VVill you please tell -- -9- to call at the principal's office at the end of the period.
