A boy had always been elected, but this year the girls were coming in for their rights and had nominated two candidates. One was a small pretty girl, who cared a lot about the way she looked and nothing about her studies. Most of the girls said they would not vote for her, because all she wanted was to be able to lead at the Hop. The other girl was one of the studious kind, who wore large glasses and received exceptionally good marks in her studies. The girls dicln't want to vote for her, becuase she was one of the smarty kind, who liked to run things. One night a few weeks before election, Betty Bell came out of the building and started homeward. Lester Brown had asked her to wait for him, but he was busy in the Chemistry Laboratory, os she started out alone. She had walked a couple of blocks when she heard someone calling. Betty! Oh, Betty! Wait a minute. In a minute Marie Murphy came running up to her, all out of breath. Oh! I thought I never would catch you. You were crossing Pat- terson Street when I came out, and I ran all the way. I'm terribly sorry. I would have waited if I had known you were trying to catch me. I Betty, do you know what a dark horse is in politics? asked Marie, when she had rested a minute or two. No. I never even heard of such a thing before. Well, a 'dark -horse' is someone who is kept quiet until the last day and then is brought up for election. As everyone is rather tired of the old candidates, and isn't just certain which one he will vote for, all naturally vote for the new one. And Betty, we are having such a time I wondered if you would consent to being a 'dark horse.' Oh! I couldn't. I'm not pretty or l'm not good in my studies or I haven't any qualifications that a president should have. Why, you certainly have. I have thought of every other girl and you seem to be just the one. I'll have to think it over firstg l'll let you know in the moming. This is where I turn, so goodbye. The next morning Betty told Marie that she would accept her offer. After that Betty worked every night on arm-bands, and some times she had a hard time to keep Lester from seeing them. The night before election Betty and Lester went to a club meeting. When they came home Betty had planned on telling Lester about the election. For weeks she had been imagining how surprised he would be when she asked him to lead at the I-lop with her. It was rather chilly when they reached home and as they drew their chairs up in front of the fire-place, Lester said: I have something to tell you, Betty. I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but the boys wouldn't let me. You see we were afraid we were 'going to lose the election, so the boys asked me to be a 'dark horse.' I have a peach of a banner, Betty, but I :haven't any arm-bands. Mother has been sick and I couldn't ask you to make them. That is the only thing lacking. Well, don't worry about those, replied Betty. I will have your arm-bands ready for you in the morning. Purple ones with big gold B's. You're the kind of a girl to have, Betty, and you know you are to lead at the Hop with me Won't you feel sort of proud to be the president's girl P And so another girl gave up her plans for a boy, just as they always have. OH, GIRLS! BE CAREFUL! BETTY UPHAM, '23 OUR girls were walking down an elm-shaded street. The afternoon sun, shining through the green leaves, made bright patches on the long thick braids of Madge Greenwald's hair, and the short auburn curls of Peggy Owens. lt's a lovely idea, Billie dear, said Meg to the smallest of the group. Just a wonderful idea, and if this warm weather only continues, and if- she finished wistfully, Peggy 'cas get the car. They were reaching the business section of the town and the girls stopped before a sign, reading aloud in unison: One hundred dollars for the .'l capture of John M. Bead. Can be distinguished by a deep scar over left eye. A picture of the criminal was shown below and at once four pairs were looking upon his ugly countenance. A hundred dollars, repeated Peggy slowly. Just how many sodas would that buy, I wonder? A hundred dollar's worth, answered a teasing voice, and the girls turned to greet Meg's brother Bob. Saturday morning dawned bright and clear, much to the girls' delight. Mr Owen had consented to Peggy's having the machine and at nine-thirty the happy quartette started off. Girls, this is wonderful! said Madge, tossing her head to get a re- bellious lock of hair out of her dark eyes. But where shall we stop for lunch? Wherever we are when the clock strikes twelve, answered Billie laugh- ingly, and nobody knows where that will be. By the way, Peggy, she said, turning to the girl at the wheel, did you remember to bring matches? Indeed I did, Miss Billie O'Dare. Will a boxfull be enough? The morning passed only too quickly for the merry group and after their lunch in a shady woods, they brought books and robes from the car to rest and read beneath the trees. It's raining, suddenly exclaimed Peggy, and Meg held out her hand to confirm the statement. A drop splashed on it and the girls looked at the gathering clouds. For my part, whispered Meg, whose greatest fear was storms, I think we had better find some place of shelter. Those dark clouds mean more than a thunder shower. The girls, never doubting Meg's 'superior wisdom, jumped in the car and were soon on the road. The rain, by this time, was falling in large drops and it was difficult for Peggy to see the road. At the nearest house the car came to a halt and the girls jumped out. I believe it is empty, said Peggy, running up on the porch and peering in through the windows, but the door is unlocked, anyway. She opened the door as she spoke, and seeing a fire-place at the end of the empty room, she called to Meg to bring the matches. But where is anything to burn? questioned Madge, her eyes scanning the room as she spoke. There is nothing to burn here, that I can see. But there might be upstairs, suggested Peggy, hopefully. Who's going up with me? I for one, volunteered Billie. Come on with me, Meg. A The girls raced up the stairs, and Peggy and Madge, sitting on the lowest step, listened to their footsteps on the bare floors above, Suddenly Meg appeared at the head of the stairs. There's a man in that room, she said, in a frightened whisper. He's on the floor asleep, with Mazon's prize Russian wolf hound lying beside him. If he's asleep, came from Peggy excitedly, we had better get out of this house. No, we'll not, said Meg quietly. He has stolen the dog. You and Madge go for some help. Billie and I will remain here. Without a murmur of protest, the girls obeyed Meg's instructions and the car was soon out of sight. After they had left, the girls sat on the porch and Billie whispered softly, Oh dear, why don't they hurry. I can't bear waiting. Oh, Meggief' she called happily, after a few minutes, from the top of the steps, they're really coming. The car came to a halt at the gate, two officers jumped out, ran up the path and into the house. A few minutes later they appeared on the porch again, their faces wreathed in broad smiles. Girls, you have captured John M. Bead and the hundred dollar reward is yours. When the girls returned the car to Mr. Owen that afternoon and told him of their adventure, his grey eyes were smiling, but he shook his head gravely. Oh, girls! Be careful! MRS. ALLENBY: SHE IS A DARN COOK G1.ADYs Osooop, '22 LLEN was Scotch and very young and pretty. She had a fine job - being cook for the Allenby's, the wealthiest people in town. The Allenby's were Mr. B. and Mrs. B. Ellen was very happy and her work was very satisfactory to her employers. The house was large and beautiful and the delight of Ellen's heart. Behind the kitchen, her domain, was a latticed porch with a screen door opening on to seven broad lovely steps. These broad lovely steps were the rendezvous for Ellen's admirers-the two icemen, the milk man, the grocery boy, and the policeman who patrolled the alley behind the house. On fine mornings they would gather on the steps with Ellen in their midst holding a platter of cookies, fruit and sometimes pie, raided alas! from the too convenient ice-box. They certainly had good times, and praised the day they had begun them. The wonderful thing about these parties was that they had never been discovered by Mrs. Allenby. That good lady, having social aspirations, reclined in her bed all morn- ing-that is, if it was the morning after the night before. Olther mornings it was ten-thirty or later before she arose. And so the parties went on. It was a particularly hot fine morning in August. There had been a very swell and forma! party at the Allenby house the night before. Ellen had excelled as never before in fher history as a cook, in making delectable cakes and and fashionable salads. She proved herself a fine manager, too, by keeping the first and second girls fhired for the evening, from nibbling the cakes and flirting with the butler falso hired for the time beingl. Mrs. Allenby had thoroughly enjoyed herself the night before, so thoroughly, in fact, that now lying in her luxurious room she groaned, My stomach feels terrible. That shrimp salad, I do believe. She groaned again and looked at the clock. It said ten. She turned over, closed her eyes, and began drawing deep breaths in what she imagined was a dreamy way. In reality they were small moans, sounding something like the giving out of a bicycle pump. It is no use, she said, I must have a cup of coffee, and she arose and went downstairs. Meantime Ellen was entertaining the usual ,bunch at the usual time and place, with a most unusual lunch. The salad and cake left from the night before was being devoured at an alarming rate of speed and lack of manners, and to help out, the policeman had bought a watermelon, of which half had already been devoured. He stood before Ellen on the lowest step with a large carving knife balanced on one hand and the watermelon on the other. His tongue was already between his teeth as a preparatory aid to slicing the melon. Ellen, seeing his tongue, laughed very loud and long, though musically. This laugh, unfortunately, floated through the house to Mrs. Allenby, making her groaning way to the dining room.. It frightened her a little, for why should her cook be laughing so loud and long to herself? She hastened to the kitchen. Mrs. Allenby advanced and caught the policeman in the act of carving the melon, his tongue working in time with each downward stroke of the knife. Her groans and pains forgotten, she hastened to the door above the steps, to order him away, when she caught sight of Ellen. She was sitting with the ice man on one side and the grocery boy on the other and the milk man on the step above, who were finishing the cake. Mrs. Allenby gasped. Ellen turned around to meet a stare that ex- pressed the poor lady's amazement. Mrs. Allenby spoke first. Ellen, in a voice in which amazement, surprise and a tinge of disgust were mingled. At that word the policeman vanished around the corner of the house, with the half melon in his hand and holding the butcher knife straight out in front of him. Ellen collected her wits. So long, boys, she said, as they beat a rather hasty retreat after the policeman. Not one answered. She picked up the platter of crumbs, cpened the door and walked in after Mrs. Allenby. There the storm broke out. In two minutes Mrs. Allenby had ex-. liausted her supply of adjectives and nouns and was breathless. Ellen said ncver a word. Mrs. Allenby stood staring a minute, and then retired with as much dignity as could be collected in so short a time, and with the parting shot: ML Allenby will speak to you personally, Ellen, and he will decide what is to be done this evening. That evening, however, Mr. Allenby dined at his club, Mrs. Allenby alone. After dinner just at dusk, Ellen wen-t out doors to hang up the dish towels. Slyly the alley gate opened and a stout figure appeared. It strode towards the steps. It was the policeman returning the knife, and incidentally improving the opportunity of seeing Ellen alone. She knew him at a glance and he came and sat down on the back steps beside her. Well, Ellen, are yuh fired? asked he in a cozy voice. Firedl laughed Ellen, this twentieth -century cook! Say, she can't fire me. I belong to the Union, and she couldn't get a cook. Goodness knows what she'd do then. Why, the only reason her husband ever comes home to a meal is because she Jocsn'l cook it. Ellen, darlin', said he, edging closer on the step and stretching his arm out behind his 'darlin',' come and marry me. You're working too hard here. Come and live wid me. I got a swell little house on Tenth. You'd have no work, and wid me earnin' a foine salary, we could- Oh, l-lol Terrence O'Dowd, that's you're scheme is it? cut in Ellen in a hard voice. Fine salary is right! I am making more a day than you make in a week, and work-say, I'd rather work hard here and do as I please than -to marry you. With that she got up and walked into the house. lVlr. O'Dowd departed, still holding the long knife in his hand. Any- thing like being refused disturbed his mind greatly. When Ellen turned on the light in the kitchen, her face was quite red and her eyes sparkled, but there was the most satisfied look about her mouth. Now bring on the rest of 'emf' Calmly she turned off the light and went to her room for a good night's sleep Cwhich, by the way, she gotj. THE DECLAMA TORY CONTEST. The annual local declamatory contest was leld in the High School on Thursday, February 24. There were six contestants. The program was as follows: The Dignity of Labor ............. .. Anonymous Laura Osgood u The Battle of Gettysburg .............. C. F. Adams, fr. Mabel French. 'Happiness and Liberty ........... .... R . Ingersoll Maxine Sprague. A Vision of War ........... .. . . . .R. Ingersoll Glayds Denninger an E.mmet's Vind-icationn Herbert Ott. The Place of Athletics in College Life . . ..... C. Depew Blanche Dusseau. The judges for the contest were Mr. D. S. Spencer, Mr. A R. DePue, Mr. Geo. Cantrick, Miss Martha Wagner anal Miss Iva Swift Th li . e rst place was awarded to Laura Osgood and the second to Maxine Sprague. L O ' aura sgood had the honor of representing Monroe in the sub-district contest, which was 'held at Howell. DEBA TINC. For the Hrst time in its history Monroe this year entered a team in the High School Debating League. Out of the live debates assigned us in the League we won two and lost three. All of them were closely contested and In computing points we find that Monroe won a total of seven points as com- pared with eight points for our opponents. After the League debating season was over we scheduled some debates with the strongest teams we could find in this vicinity. Our purpose in doing this was to get the training that can only come from experience in actual debates. The stronger the opposition, the better the experience, so we scheduled the best teams we could find to go against. These teams were composed chiefly of veterans of other years, experienced in debating and while they defeated us as wc expected they would, we never-the-less gained the 'training and practice we sought. gin 1311101511111 GD the nuzmnrg nf une uf gmunrne Zbfiglg 51-hnnI's musi popular :mil prumising stuhenis, NLTYXIIZIU Sinner inlgusc uufimelg hvzdlg hrnuglyt saahuesz auth persunal lass fn the eniire sfuheni I1nhQ,il1is page uf ilge 15120-Z1 Qgugle is Iuhinglg hehicaieh- CALENDAR FOR 192021 SEPTEMBER School again for another year.

J X ,fl ff ,X kxsh-1-,lf X 1- E ff' 0:0 QD D, FOOTBALL With ten veterans coming back to school this year, Monroe had one of the best outlooks for a very successful season that she has ever known. Coach Parker issued his call early in the first week of school and a liarge number of candidates were on hand. At the close of football last year we lost our football gridiron, but thru the splendid efforts of our Athletic Association we obtained a good field at the south end of Washington street. This field was called Washington Field and by the time of our first game, October 2nd, was ln splendid shape, hav- ing been rolled and a grandstancl erected on one side. Our first opponent was the light team representing Wayne High school. Monroe proved themselves superior in every way and had little difficulty in winning by the score of 55 to 0. After a week of hard training we took on Highland Park High School, October 9th. Highland Park had a very good team and forced us to the limit to win by the score of 6 to 0. Our score came early in the game and from then on neither team was able to gain consist- ently. The following week our boys made a joumey to Birmingham. Birmingham was expected to give little opposition and it was thought Monroe would run up a large score. Due to ragged play- ing and fumbling Monroe scored only four touch- downs, although the score of Z7 to 0 does not begin to show the superiority of our team. Next week we played Cass Tech of Detroit , at Washington Field. This was easily the hard- BLISS KEMMERIJIN6 est game on our schedule thus far, but the boys Football Captain 1921 were not in the least daunted and played the Mechanics off of their feet in the first three quarters. In the fourth quarter due to the individual efforts of Gasser, Cass' All-Star half-back, the Detroit boys were able to acquire and maintain the lead, although the game ended with Monroe in possession of the ball in Cass' territory. The final score of this game was I4 to l9, Cass being the first team to score on us. On Saturday, October 30, the team set sail fon Ypsilanti. Ypsi was knovsm to have a good team and a hard battle was expected. The first half was scoreless, although Monroe was inside of Ypsi's ten yard line when the whistle blew. In the third quarter Capt. Bliss Kemmerling caught a punt on .

Shorty Kressbach kicked goal and that ended the scoring for the day, both teams going scoreless in the fourth quarter. November 6, Nordstrum High School of Detroit was seen in action on Yvashington Field. As she possessed a light team with little team-work, our bcys ran over, through and around them and when the dead and wounded were collected and the score calculated it was found that Monroe had obtained seven touch-downs and that after each one Shor'y had kicked a perfect gcal. The score was 49 to 0. November I3 was the date on which we were scheduled to play Adrian High, but owing to the death of one of her players the game was postponed until November 27, Central High School, of Toledo, substituting. This game was featured by arguments and delays, until, hnally in the third quarter, Referee Steiner forfeited the game to Monroe, when two Toledo men refused to leave the field when ordered to leave by the referee for dirty playing and profane language. At the time the game was forfeited we had gained three touchdowns for 2l points. The official score, though, was I to 0 in favor of Monroe. Novem.ber 20 U. of D. high school of 'Detroit played us on Washington field. Monroe was clearly superior to U. of D., whose team fought every inch of the way and the final score of the game was I5 to 0, two touch- downs, a goal and a safety furnishing the points. On Thanksgiving morning the Alumni met the Monroe first team. A battle royal, ensued, the Alumni showing very good team play for a team which entered the game with little practice. Dick Sturn coached the older boys and did very well to obtain such a good team. Both teams obtained one 'touchdown but owing to the trusty toe of Carl Kressbach, the high school was on the long end of a 7 to 6 score. It is to be regretted that Sid Dewey, who had been playing center, broke his finger in this game. This injury kept him out of the Adrian game which followed two days later. Excitement ran high, previous to the Adrian game. A special car had been chartered and a large number of students and townspeople made the trip. Reports from Adrian had it that the team representing that high school was weak but against us they put up a very creditable game. The teams were quite evenly matched and the ball moved up and down the field, each team lacking the punch to carry the ball over. The game ended in a scoreless tie and Adrian considered herself very lucky to come out as well as she did. The football season of I920 is over. Nine letter men will graduate next june. They will leave behind them, however, a 'record of which they can be very proud. It is as good as the record of any Monroe team and adds a page to the history of Monroe High School to which every student can point with pride. A total of ISI points has been acquired by this strong team against 25 for the opponents. Cass Tech was the only high school team to score upon us. The Alumni acquired one touchdown. Let us take our hats off to this truly good team and the men who made it. Much credit is due Coach Wallace Parker and Captain Bliss Kemmerling. It is through their untiring efforts that this record has been obtained. Bliss graduates in June. But he will always be proud to say, I was a member and the captain of the I920 football team of Monroe High Schoolf Following is the summary: 'Oct. 2-Monroe Wayne . . . . . . 0 Oct. -Monroe High.

The Second Team played three games with outside teams this year and was the victor in all of them. The score of this game was '20 to 0. A few weeks later the team went to Trenton and defeated the High School team of that town by the close score of 7 and 6. In the last game of the season, they again defeated the Scout team, this time by the smaller margain of 6 to 0. Altho the Second Team did not play many games, their services were invaluable to the Varsity and M. H. S. is just as proud of the Scrubs as it is of its first team men. Many good players were developed among the second team men, and it is a certainty that more than one of them will be heard from on the Varsity next year. Following is the summary: M. H. S.

N K ll ix mu sfl M I W VL VL f-X BASKETBALL When the call for basketball candidates was issued a goodly number responded, including the three veterans from last year's team: Capt. Kress- bach, Navarre and Behm. The squad put in several weeks of hard practice before their first game. The opening game of the season was-with Petersburg, X hom we easily defeated, 44-8. Y Our next game was with St. John's Hi of Toledo, and, altho our lads were detemined to win and wipe out last year's defeat, they were unable to get going and lost a fast and close game, 26-21. The following week, the team made the trip to Highland Park, and. mostly because ot the large floor, which they weren't used to, were beaten 30-IO. Orr the next Friday, we had as our guests and opponents, Ypsi Cenrtal, a very strong team. The game was fast and close, the final result be- ing 33-24, in Ypsilanti's favor. The next week was an open date and the team rested, but made up for this by playing two games cn the week following. On Friday they journeyed to Detroit, and played N:fdQtrum, los- ing by the score of I9-l4. On Saturday even- ing, at home, We played Commerce Hi of De- troit. This game was one of the closest ever seen on a basketball court and also a very long cne, it being necessary to play 4 overtime periods to decide the win-ner, Monroe was victorious 38-35. The following week Birmingharr. came to 'CARL KRESSBACH. town, with a carload of rooters. determined to Basket Ba Captain 1921 win. But our boy-s completely played them off their feet, and won by a score of 32-13. The next game was at Mt. Clemens and was a hard game all the way through, but this time Monroe was nosed out by an I8-I5 score. The week following, we had the Ypsi Normal Hi boys as our oppon- ents and our boys, displaying a superior brand of basketball, defeated them 3l-20. This was one of the best played games of the season from the standpoint of team work on lVlonroe's part. The week after the Ypsi Normal game, the team made the trip to Adrian, which is always our hardest game of the season, and this was no exception. Our boys even though they fought valiantly, were defeated 40-5. The next game was with Assumption l-li, Sandwich, Ontario, and although the Canadians put up a game fight, they were defeated by the score of 22-l 7. The last game of the season was with the Alumni and although the old-timers had a reputable list of stars in their lineup, they were decidedly beaten by our boys. Score 42-23. Thus ended our basketball season, which was fairly successful, the team winning six and losing the same number. The team was handicapped by the small floor, and, if the same team had had a larger Hoor to play and prctice on, it would have won a greater percentage of its games. Coach Parker and Captain Kressbach certainly gave all they had for the hest interests of the team. The line-up and summary of the season's games follow: Right forward ....... .....

Since we have to go to press so early it is impossible for us to give an account of the season's games in this issue of the Annual. How- ever, the l922 Bugle will undoubtedly be able to report an enthusiastic and uccessful season of baseball for l92l. SECOND TEAM BASKETBALL. The boys' second team basketball had a very su-:cessful season, winning live games out of seven. The only teams to inflict a defeat upon them were the Highland Park High School second team and Dundee I-ii. lin the first game of the season the second team defeated the Monroe Boy Scouts. The score was I6 to 8. The following week. Lundee visited us and the second team succumbed to them in a close game, the final score of which was I4 to I7. i On january ZI the second team took a trip to Highland Park and were defeated by the score of I5 to IS. Next week our team went to Trenton and brought back the bacon. The final score of this game was 20 to IZ. On February I I, the second team encountered Nordstrum's second team of Detroit and emerged victorious by the score of I7 to 8. March 4, Ypsilanti Normal's second tcam paid us a visit and were de- feated by the score of 34 to I5. The final game of the season was with Petersburg Hi. The score was 38 to I2 in Monroe's favor. The second team is deserving of a good deal of praise, not only for their excellent record with outside teams, but for their help in keeping the first team in shape by daily scrimmages.

S-ix victories out of eight starts is the record which they made for the season of 1921 and their two defeats were caused by Flint and Birmingham, both of whom were in running for the state cham- pionship. They ably revengecl themselves on F lint, however, by defeating them at home by the score of 26 and I9. To start the season the girls came thru with a victory over the Alumni by the close score of Z3 and 22. This game was played January I5th, and the following week River Rouge was our guest. River Rouge never had a chance and when the smoke of battle cleared away Monroe was on the long F . JANE MITCHELL Basketball Captain, 1921 V end of a 62 to I0 count. The following week saw the girls visiting at , Flint. Flint Central had a good team but our 1 girls were hampered by the floor, which was the largest they played on all year. Flint was the victor in this game by the score of 30 and I5. The week of February II, Rosary Hi of Detroit came to do battle with our girls. Monroe was the victor in this contest by a large score, 42 and 6. Birmingham followed Rosary and brought the best team that showed here all year. They defeated us by the score of I7 and 39. After the Birmingham game the team went to lVlt. Clemens , to play the High School of that city. Playing on ei floor of about the same size as at l'li11t, they were victorious in this game, 4 the final score being 26 and I9. To end the season the Alumni, who were feeling pretty mad about the first game, were played again. They were decisively beaten, this time by the score of 36 and 22. The wohle team played well and is deserving of much praise. Violet and Viola Rau played well at forwards, with Elsie Zapf and Katherine Tatroe ready to step in at a moment's notice. Grace Dusseau and Freda Zapf were the centers and were very clever at getting the ball from the guards and passing it to the forwards. Jane Mitchell and Marian Weis played good games at guard and could always be relied upon. Virginia Hubble and Hazel Ciray were able substitutes. The team is to be con- gratulated on the excellent ercord which they made for the season of I92l. Following are the statistics: Jan. I5-Hi School Alumni . . . . .22 lVl. H.

BANQUETS Two banquets were given this year in honor of the 1920 football team. The first one was given at the Monroe Club on Thursday evening, December 26. Messrs. Leo Sturn and Clayton Buck were the hosts. After a sump- tuous repast, the toastmaster, Mr. A. B. Bragdon, furnished a great deal of amusement by clever remarks. He called on Mr. Buck, Mr. Sturn, Mr. Steiner and several members of the team for informal talks. The second banquet was given in the High School dining room on December Zl, by Mr. D. S. Spencer. On this occasion, beside the members of the team, the following were present: Messrs. Cantrick, Hiller, Parker, Servis, Sturn, Steiner, Depue, Bragdon and the host, D. S. Spencer. Mr. Depue made a very good toastmaster and called upon several for short talks. 'ifhetn Roberts was elected Captain of the I92l football team. On be- half of the Athletic Association, Mr. DePue presented Mr. Servis with a gold knife, Mr. Bragdon with a gold belt buckle, and Mr. Steiner with a pair of cuff links, in appreciation of the support given the team during the season. Not the least of the good times at the High School were the dances given after the debates and basketball games. The young people usually danced until ten thirty or eleven. Music was furnished by high school students. JUNIOR PLAY. On March Sth and 9th, the Junior Class presented Our Mutual Friend at the Central Theatre. The play was dramatized by Harriette R. Shattuck from Dicken's story of that name. Under the efficient clirectorship and thru the untiring efforts of Miss Hoekje, the play proved a decided success. Both evenings the performance was given before a crowded house. The cast was as follows: Mrs. Wilfer- lXflajestic Ma ...... .... E lsie Schmidt Bella Wilfer- The Lovely Woman ........ Jane Mitchell Lavinia Wilferi The lrrepressible Lavvyn .... Grace Dusseau R. Wilfer- Cherubic Pa ........... .... G eorge Soleau John Rokesmith- Our Mutual Friend .... A. Navarre, Jr. lVlr. Boffiin- The Golden Dustmann ..... Herbert Bumpus Mrs. Boffm- A Dear, A Dear, the Best of Dears lVlarion Weis George Sampson- Friend of Family ......... Boyer Marx The play is a clever comedy in four acts. jane Mitchell as Bella, the leading lady, acted the part very well, indeed. Elsie Schmidt portrayed Majestic Ma to perfection and George Soleau just seemed made for his part. ,john Rokesmith came to life in Joe Navarre. Grace Dusseau was quite uirrepressibleu in her part as Lavvy, the younger sister. The parts of Mr. and Mrs, Boffin were well played by Marion Weis and Herbert Bumpus. Boyer Marx was the clown of the play and kept the audience in a gale of laughter from the time of his entrance on the stage.

A most attractive affair was the J Hop given on Friday evening, April eighth, by the clss of nineteen hundred and twenty two for the Seniors, at the Knights of Columbus Hall. Stockford's orchestra furnished music for the large number of dances. The hall was decorated very effectively with yellow and white. One corner, where lamps, chairs and palms were tastefully arranged was devoted to the chaperons who were Mr. and Mrs. A. R. DePue, Mr. and Mrs. D. S. Spencer, and Mr. and Mrs. G. T. Cantrick. During the evening punch was served by several of the Freshmen girls. In the intermission caps and serpentine were .distributed among the guests These afforded much merriment and lent colcr,to the scene. Dancing was enjoyed until about midnight. POETS' CORNER E.BENEZER'S DOWNFALL HAZEL B. KNAPP, '23 just as every town has it's gossip, So has every town it's fool, And in the town of Endicott This was Ebenezer Poole. He greatly did admire All the maidens young and gay. And for a fool he surely was The softest of his day. Now his attentions centered 'Round a lady fair and sweet. Her name was Isabella Tutt, He thought she couldn't be beat. But there was also another man Who wooed the dear Miss Tutt. And was very jealous of This Ebenezer mutt. So he planned for him a downfall Both in pride and body. too. That would make dear Isabella see That Ebbie wouldn't do. 'Twixt Eb's and lsabella's home Was a road all dark and still. Where, as Ebenezer thought, Spooks roamed about at will. Xvhen going home along that way His heart went pit-a-pat. So Harris planned his downfall As l think I said before: For he hoped that Isabella then Would favor Eb no more. So when Ebenezer went to see His darling, one dark night. Harris hid beside the road Dressed in a ghost's robe white. And farther down along the road Was a mud puddle soft and wide Near which he placed a fallen log On Isabella's side. And back comes Ebenezer home Very blithe and gayg For Isabell had been kind, He knew not for her 'twas play Along he walks quite flippantly, Forgetful of the ghostsg When out one steps and groans: Beware of bride's or lover's boasts.' With one great bound, Eb leaps ahead As fast as he can go. Unmindful of the log, he trips And lands in the mud below. Up poor Eb jumps, nor turns to look Till he reaches his own door: He feared a ghost would get him, Frightened, he takes the ghost's advice He couldnt run-he was too fat. And frequents that place no more There's a warning in this story, You can find it if you try: Beware of smiles and mud puddles And a rival that's near by. s A SOPHOMORE. LYRIC When I tell you of Phoebe, you'll laugh till you die, Oh! listen, my children, Grandma began, And I'll -tell you a story of '21, A year, I remember, though long gone by, When I was a Sophomore of Monroe I-ligh.', Oh! Grandma, dear Grandma! the little ones say, Was it then that your name was Mulligan Gray? Ah! yes, Mule Gray, to be sure, Grandma cried, And little I thought it would ever be Hyde. But tha-t is less shocking, by far, than to say, That sweet little Kate married Wayne Ucalay. And surely, Oh! surely, you'll think I am off When I tell you, dear children, that Francie's a Prof. And, too, that poor Ruthie is living alone, After being divorced by Georgian Cron. And to think that Kate Mohrhoff is happy and free, With five little children astraddle her knee. And Virginia, the darling, away' from all -harm, Is vamping the cattle at Sunnyside Farm. While Elsie, with 'Some One' is renting a flat, Attending nine kids and a Berkshire cat. When I tell you of Phoebe, you'll laugh till you die, For she's posing as Venus for some lucky guy. And Gertrude, the vixen, completing the tale, Is biding her time in Monroe County jail. Now, children, I'm through, if you clon't like what I tell. You can get down your shovels and go plumb to--bed. -Belly U pham ......0..... The Lumen! iof a Freshman. I go to school most every day, Sometimes I study hard. But when the end of each month comes They're all X's on my card. And when the whole semester ends, I take my test-Alas! I think the teachers motto is, The student shall not pass. Fletcher Meade, '24-. One day I dreamed a dream About old Monroe High, I tho't, how strange should seem I saw two folks go by, Dorothy and Edward Dear, Each looking the other way. They've had a fight, I really fear. Yes, it happened yesterday. Recovering from his surprise, I wandered down the hall, Where issuing from Cantrick's room, Came happy students, they'd had an E, Then I looked around once more, And lo! I did behold Frieda, who over her books did pore, And her face looked withered and old. I've sworn off men, she said to me I've washed my hands of all. My books I have found solace in, Men are no good at all. I wandered on and then I saw Harry with a girl. I stopped and overheard him say, I love you dear, my pearl. that's all. This was too much, to the 'assembly I did flee. And there the Dean was saying, Tomorrow, as far as I can see We'll have a whole day off for once And spend the time in play, Aind please let this be understood, That hence-forth from this day, Vacations will come frequently. The students all rose up at this No, no, oh, no, they cried, For us, we all prefer our school It is our joy and pride. This was more than I could stand: I fainted dead awayg And then I 'heard an awful voice, Report to me, DePue did say. A. A.A RES Q . ' xl f 9 0 0 U ?

I could hear the voice of a distant girl Calling, yes calling fo rme. I got up from that dream, Pearl, And walked to that distant tree. The stars were bright and the moon shone full, But not on you or me. For you in the land of Texas, toil Near the Mexican border line, And I up here on Michigan soil, In the land of the spruce and the pine. But why should it be, Our Dearest Pearl, That our bodies are far apart, ' For surely it is the soul, dear girl That's the really important part? Now if our thoughts together fly Through the great eternal height, The time will come, when the night draws nigh That they will return in their flight. For the year is as a live long day, The day as a happy hour, When I think of the flowers that come in May, After an April shower. Not like a great red norther, That inhabits the Texas lands, Nor like the great west winds, Which are filled with the Texas sands. But as the soft spring showers Which quicken the spirit of Life, Such are my dreams of you, dear, Which come 'mid my toil and strife. IN A TERRIBLE PLIC-HT JENNIE GILMORE, '24 While passing through the streets .One moming early, I met a friend of mine Whose hair was very curlyg But all at once this maiden She did fromm, For to her surprise The rain came pouring down. And surely she was in a plight, Her face was streaked, Her hair a fright. To me there was a moral in this scene, Ut would have been a good one on the screen I surely thought this girlie would go crazyj. I'd rather he my honest self, Than any made-up daisy.

Some time ago the town was shocked to hear oi' an automobile accident. Mr. Button kindly told his classes that the two people implicated were holding hands. He evidently was judging them by himself. Jane and Brower found the ditch one day while driving to Willow Beach. What's the matter, Jane! ! ll Isn't the road wide enough or did you want a nice quiet pla-ce to park? Easton and Harry H. ought to be ashamed of themselves for haunting the convent the way they do. In the first place, there are plenty of good looking girls at M. H. S. and in the second place, we hear that two of the college girls can't leave the campus when they're around. Too bad to de- prive them of their liberty.

AN APPRECIATION The business management of the BUGLE wishes to heartily thank all 'those who have so generously contributed to its financial success. The. merchants of Monroe have been liberal with their advertising patronage and without that patronage our publication could never have been put over. To say that we ap- preciate the support of these business men is only a mild statement of our feelings. We trust that every reader of this book will help us show our appreciation by patronizing these merchants who have so liberally patronized us. At this time we wish to thank those who have furthered this good cause by purchasing a copy of the BUCLE. We hope that in the perusal of its pages you will get much pleasure and will feel that the money you have expended has returned a good dividend. .NS - H A Xcg,fvLf1.1 ,, ,551 1 xwkff U B U 3 I1 u 4 4 EU U U 2 G Mu U U lj U U U 0 0 u U D n U D U U IJ! , U rl rf.
