To look upon so fine a crowd, Enough to make them all feel proud. It is in debate that we have soared, In contests plenty we haee scored. Four are they who this have won. Four we will mention one by one. There 's Robert, he of logie keen, llelen. gifted with silvery tongue. Isabel-well ean it be said, She's got the pep, She's get the rep. And that is all she needsf' Yet one remains of whom to speak, Philip in Whom homely virtues meet. All eannot win in debate, The rest are smart at any rate. 'l'here're are other gifts to be prized, Even tho they be disguised. lloie's is not-,tis musie rare Made to eharin away all eare. llazel's smile is Worth all the gold That even this big world would hold Genevieve's a eharming loss, Gladys a leader in the class. Deseribe our Bertha with one Word, Loquacious? Good, that's the word Such a eontrast to Ruth we see, Something' else her talent must be. Hail to the class of '17, Hail to the colors, pink and green, High hopes are ours of the coming years For what may come we have no fears. -Ruth Newton In the year l936 I returned from studying with the famous Dr, Yuanchidarze, of Korea. My first case in the United States was an operation which I performed on the owner of one of the largest scrap factories in the world. It was not until the last day of my visit to the invalid that I niet his wife. Imagine my surprise when I found her to be my old school mate, Loie Paul. Of course, we began to talk of the class of '17, of which I had heard nothing since the night of the gradu- ation. 'gGenevieve Gibson has certainly turned out to be a successful character in life's great drama, said Loie. HShe is now serving her second term as Congresswoman for the state of Vifashington. You know she was the one who convinced the other members of the need of educating the natives of the Samoan Islands in a better way. This was decided to be done by letting them do the servant work in the private homes of us Americans. you see. Good idea, isn't it? And what has become of the others? MOh, Bertha Tll0II1?LS, you remember her, don't you '? Wtall, she is a very famous singer in the Orpheum Opera, in Cliicagof, answered my class mate. I'm not surprised, I said, for she always got such good grades in music in High School, you know. I Did you hear about Robert 5? No? Wliy' he is now known as Gen. R. VV. Bachelor. Ile joined the army soon after graduating and worked his way up until he is now a general. And speaking of that makes me think of the war, which leads to nurses. Hazel Fisher always wished to be anurse, you remember. Well, she en- listed as a Red Cross nurse in l9l9, but owing to the great demand for aviators, she changed work. She drove the blg 'Sky Scraping Flyer,' which did so much damage to the enemies' trenches. HDid Isabel take up nursing as she had planned as a school girl J? I asked. 'tOh dear, no, was the reply. t'She made much money as well as a great name for herself by her wonderful work as a conductor of a beauty parlor in Denver, Colo. However, this did not satisfy her ideals, for several years ago she married the owner of a large 7 L- eotfee pl2111t21ti11n i11 Brazil. It seems that she met hin1 at the Elllllllill r-oiifereiiee of the 'Anti-Postum Clublf' Let me seeg who else was ill the class? O, yes. Ruth Ne1yt'111g what happened to her?'7 I questioned. She is president of the Congo Republic. You know she Went to Afiiea i11 1920 as 21 rnissionary. Then when the Congo state needed a steady hand to guide it she was elected to the place. And Gladys Finney? Is she still living? And Philip IVl1ite'? Surely he did some great and noble deed I exelainied. Yes, went o11 Loie, Philip Certainly did do l1is share of good i11 the world.

Nevertheless We gained one new member. The shy UD young man of Cedarville. Mr. Earnest Van Walker, entered as a Freshman. The class finished their first year with colors flying. At the opening of the Sophomore year, three had dropped ort. Miss Lela Oswald had launched on the popular sea of matrimniy, and the Misses Beatrice Shaw and Nettie Hyder had departed for Elma and Satsop, respectively. Also at the end of the first semes'er Miss Edith Musgrove was attracted' by the sea air of the harbor, and this left another vacancy. ln the third year, three exceptionally intelligent members-the editor hlnshes-Mr. Robert Bachelor, and the Misses Helen Shnll and Isahel Myers, quickened their pace, joined the Senior Class, and so finished the high school course in three years. Miss Bessie Couch had left before the opening of school to begin training as a nurse in a lloquiain hospitalg and Miss Ludella Eaton was forced to drop her work in January. on account of prolonged illness. The class, now reduced to seven members, is compvsed of lead- ers in the various activities of high school life, athletics, oratory and niusie. In short. they are full of pep.

But the sun was very hot and finally it dried llp the puddle. There. rolling around on the ground where the puddle had been, was a small ball which the bugs ealled the world. Very soon it floated graeef11lly away into the sky. Then a hole in the world opened up and Ollt marched our ancestors. CSee Darwin for full partieulaisj 'l'he population increased an increased Plllil renters of learning were established all over the country, ehiefly among them Oakville. Ambitions students from all parts of the globe flocked to this famous seat of learning until 1915, at Whieh time several members of the illustrious class of nineteen were assembled. They were Mil- dred Sweitzer, Neda Nusgrove, Dorothy Paul, Willard Merry, Paul Provoe, Herbert Fry and Henry Liessner. Soon afterward Jessie Bain shook the n111d from her feet forever and joined Olll' class. Then about Christmas time that hold pioneer Raymond joined our class.

They went in very sheepishiy, with great fear and trembling. for they had heard that the teachers all had Very' bad tempers, regardless of their looks Cwhieh did not allay their fear-sl. Before the first week was over one of the large boys dropped out. The seeond week an girl who had heard very mueh of our school came from Elma to join our class. In about two months another boy dropped out, having become fully educated. About the same time another boy joined, who had been working on his 't'ather's farm during the first two months of school. At Christmas time a girl joined our class, thus making it greater in number than it was in the beginning. At tl1e present time we are a elass of eight. O is for Orvin, our athlete so grand, who can do the pole Vault the best in the land. A is for Austin, a freshman so proud, who believes in hard study, but plays when allowed. K is for K0ochy, known also as Alys, whose heart is like stone, unbreakable and callous. V is for Van Walker, captain of o11r team, to be a great actor is his constant dream. I is for Isabel, our champion sneezer, whom the boys get nothing over, when they try to tease 'er. . L is for Lemmon, o11r basket ball star, who to the rest of us shines from afar. L is for Loie, who's working to get thru, but we know the reason, do you '? is for Edna. a new little friend, who is always willing her note hooks to lend. . E H is for Helen, a se11ior so tall, who tho tl1e biggest, is not quite all. I is for lkey -we call him Raymond sometimes. who got his nickname by repeating some rhymes. G is for Gladys, who's chunky and fat, but she is all right for all o' that. H is for Herbert, a small sophomore boy, who to tl1e girls is quite a Joy. S is for Sweitzer, our funny little Hsophf' who is always there when a stunt is pulled oft. C is for Charles Deane, who never did smoke, and always is there to spring some big joke.

So they stopped and thought it over, And decided upon a. song, Then giggled merrily to themselves, as they Went running along.

'17 COne of the Three.l THE DEVIINS BOX. fiiany. many years ago there lived eight lovely girls and two handsome boys in a faraway secluded garden of Natures mast beau- tiful production. No din of war had ever been heard in this peaceful, quiet garden, and no suffering had been caused by jealousy, spite, falsehoods, prejudice and ignorance. In this garden lived boys and girls made happy by mere truth, beauty, innocence, purity and love. Here the huge fir and pine trees grew ti the heights of their gloiy while the grassy sheathe below seemel to wave its glaglness to the gentle warm winds. Beautiful wild flowers nodded and bowed along the sloping bank of a little brook that gurgled and sang over the various eolored pebbles and ran on and on forever. Here and theie a erystal pool offered its services as a mirror or a bathing place for both swan and fair maiden. The sparkling founfains that rose in their midst made beautiful rainbows in the bright sunlight. Far thru the trees could be seen a white figure moving, ah, it proved to be a beautiful, slender maiden elad in the sheerest of white materials. The wind gently fanned the loose curls of her long auburn hair and no ornament adorned it but a. few modest violets Whieh elung tenderly to the curls. The girl carried a. roll of manuscript in her hand and now and then she would stop and write in it. Yes, she was an authoress, and bit by bit, she wrote down her inspirations as received from nature. Here and there she stooped to caress a timid little tlower and from among the trees the birds chirped and trilled at her. Suddenly, shrill and loud from SOI1lll'xVl102 0 came a voice, llelen, llelen, Polly wants a cracker so bady. llut what is this troop coming running and dancing merrily along? llelen watched them advance, and then with a. merry little laugh she ran lightly away, the group of white clad figures in wild pursuit. K'Oh, you eannot hide from us, cried Ruth, as Ilelen was at last captured, I may he slow and poky but I ani lieeter than you. L'We thought you would be lonesome without us, and anyway, we can all work better while Loie plays for us on her harpfl This was from Gladys, the poetess, as she settled herself comfortably to write. HI haven't enough reeds to tinish my basket. You are not busy, Hazel, so come with me to search for more. So Genevieve and Hazel tripped noiselessly off, hand-in-hand. On Hazel's brown head rested a neat, white nurse's cap, but she was not only a nurse, but also a very etheient doctor. Soon the girls returned with Robert and Philip, who Were toil- ing under the load of reeds. In addition, Robert was carrying a large law book, while Philip Carried a well-worn Bible. In the rear followed Bertha, carrying a basket of asters, and on her dress was pinned a tag which read Flor-ist. So in this pleasant nook of the woods was a scene well to be remembered. Helen and Gladys sat side by side writing earnestly 111 their manuscripts, Hazel assisted Genevieve in her weaving, Ber- tha artistically arranged ureaths with the asters she had gathered Robert was studying thoughtfully in his law bookg Phillip was busy writing his sermon for the next Sabbath, Ruth stood sketching the lofty snow capped mountains which towered over the silver rib- bon of water that ran at its base, Iloie, the mysterious little dark- eyed maiden, played lightly on her huge harp. One was missing. Who could it bel? There! In the distance could be heard the bleat of numberless lambs and sheep, then the sharp but orderly, barks of a dog. Then into view came Isabel, the shep- perdess, following her flock of sheep, now and then resting on her crook or giving a rewarding caress to her large but faithful collie. Wl1y' so sad, Isabel? asked Gladys. as the shepperdess came near. Witli a sigh, Isabel dropped to a grassy couch and said, t'Some queer but great power has hold of me today. It seems to have made me very impatient to open this small locket that I have always worn. I do not understand what those queer words on it mean. but I have always been warned never to open it for evil lurks within. t'Evil? What does that word mean? asked Helen. NVe have never had any cause to know of evil. Open it, Isabel, so that we may know. Do, please, coaxed the others in unison. With a faint but final I will, Isabel unclasped ber locket and opened' the lock. Iio, and behold! A eloud of smoke issued forth and with it appeared two wicked looking personages, namely Raymond and Alice. 'tAha. what innocent little lads, laughed the vile Raymond. t'And, oh, these pure little lassies are a screan1,'l giggled the impertinent and bold' Alice. The other girls and boys cowered in fright and then tied quickly towards refuge. But when they stopped, there stood Alice and Raymond, laughing loudly and wickedly. Yet in all their boldness, they fasinated their audience and soon had them in their confidence. They led them over hills and vales, and finally, footsore and tired, they reached that place called f'Oakville, the home of all demons. There they were placed under the control of four harsh task- masters, namely, Mr. Stewart, Mr. Spuler, Mr. Deane and Miss Hamilton, in the Oakville High Schoolg and the last that was seen of them they were being graduated from this well known sc-hool of evil. if blk ik SF 46 Yes, mother, I'm awake. I'm coming. Oh, was it all a dream? And some dream, believe me. -Isabel M. Myers, 'l7. On the Occasion of Presenting a Statute to the City CEditor's Note.-The following is a speech delivered in the class in public speaking and oratory. Same was recommended for publication by the iustructoinl Your Excellency and Gentlemen of the Council: Ever since his creation man has sought to remember his fellow man, after his departure from this world as well as while he re- mains among us. Those who have been of great service to the public receive recognition of their work. It is entirely fitting and proper that we should do this, for man has always sought to be remem- bered by his fellows, whether it be by a magnificent edifice erected to his memory, or merely by the record of his past performances, as they are handed down to posterity. It has been only since the departure of our fellowtownsman. Philip White, that we realized fully the extent of his undertakings and his work for the betterment of the community. We have missed him in civic life, in business life, and missed his great leadership in all reform movements, and we have desired to remember him by some visible sign, so that we may look on 'his form as seen by the sculptor, and in doing so take renewed courage, as we think of his example in the past and what he wouild do in the present day world. Philip White was born seventy-seven years, three months and len days ago in a magnificent house in the city of New York. His father was many times a millionaire, a very cultured man, a graduate of Yale. But our friend Philip White did not have so easy a time as might be supposed. Early in his career his parents lost their great fortune, amased after years of patient toil. The loss was too much for them, and in a few months they quietly passed away. Philip was left alone in the world, to shift for himself. llizl he shirk the task? No. He met the would bravely, and made a mark that will not soon be erased. At an early age he entered the service of the American navy, soon he was transferred to the naval college, graduated and in a few years was made commander. It was he who commanded the battleship Oregon on her record breaking l ll11 around the Cape. and it was he who was given a medal for bravery in the battle following. A few years later he became head of the American navy, re- taining the rank of admiral until his retirement a few years ago. When placed on the retired list by the navy department he did not think of his career of usefulness as ended. He came to Oakville soon afterward to make his home with a grand-daughter. He at once became a prominent figure in local politics, soon becoming mayor of the city, where he gave an administration which has never been equaled. He completely eliminated graft, established numerous reforms, and made good. Later he was elected to the United States senate. where he served honorably for one terni. refusing the second. Upon the outbreak of war with Germany. he fitted out a vessel at his own expense, and as eoinmander of the vessel. ac-ting under orders from the navy department he sank ninety-two German sub- marines. It was in this last work that he eaught the cold whim-h resulted in his death. Ile was urged to stay at honie. but he. as ever. laid aside all thoughts of self and thought only of his country. Thus passed one of the niost historic.: eharaeters in American politics, naval attairs and in the life of the nation. Your exeelleney and gentlemen of the eouneil, on behalf of the friends of Philip VVhite. who have desired to renieniber hini as they pass to and fro to their daily tasks, I now take great pleasure in presenting a statue of Philip VVhite. whieh I beg you to aeeept on behalf of the people.

'llhat the present state of prepared- ness in the United States is suffieient for defense. The debate took plaee January 25, 1917. and Isabel Myers, Helen Shull and Robert Bat-helor upheld the negative. winning a unanimous deeision. On the evening of February 3, we defeated a team from the llontesano High School, on the question of preparedness, speaking on the local floor, Robert Bachelor, Helen Shull and Philip Wllite. having the affirmative side of the question, and again winning a unanimous decision. February sixteenth saw the Elma first team with us. The team, Philip Wliitce, Robert Bachelor and Helen Shull, upheld the affirma- tive side ef the question and won another victory, two to one. February twenty-second saw the Oakville Iligh School led to victory by Helen Shull, Earl VVilliams and Robert Bachelor, de- feating the city team unanimously on the question of military train- ing in the schools. Oakville had the affirmative side of the question lfebruary twenty-third the Oakville team journeyed to Grand Mound, to debate them on the same question. Grand Mound rc- fused to debate state rules, both sides refused to compromise, so the debate was cancelled. A few days later we received a challenge from the Stevens Debating Club of the University of Washington. We accepted the affirmative side of the question: Hllesolved that the municipality should regulate all public utilities operating within its borders. l ll ut liidu 'tllx ll on thc l il Hooi l l Debate will ts ie plz '1 4' aj, . aj , 1 oe: '. ljii ip White, Helen Shull and Robert Bachelor will handle the question for Oakville.

Wiggs, a barber, was represented by Robert Bachelorg Timothy. his friend, by Philip White. All the ladies in the town are wild over the barber, who pays no attention to any of them. At last 'l'i'n tells him that one of the eight business women on his block has inheiited a. fortune from a deceased uncle. Wiggs, not knowing which one it is. makes love to seven of them, while Timothy tries to find out the heiress. The eighth woman is scorned by Wiggs because he knows her folks have all been dead for years. The other women, i the meantime find out what a tickle-hearted wreteh the harler is and decide to punish him. Next Tim comes in and informs Wfggs that the eighth woman is the heiress. Just as the women are telling him of their decision-that he must marry them all-XViggfs proposes marriage to the heiress, but she refuses him, and he is again left alone. The next play, And the Lamp Went Out,, was in pantominc. The reader was Isabel Myers, while Gladys Finney, Ruth Newton, Genevieve Gibson and Hazel Fisher Cthe last two took the parts of boysj were the actors. The plot dealt with a. young man, the villain who 'tcrept' into the room where Evelyn was sitting. and tried to get her to marry him. She, angry, took her mother's arm, and left. the room. Her true lover came, tho, and by and by he and Evelyn Uwaltzed into the room. The mother ordered Herbert to leave the room. The two lovers sauntered into the conservatory, leaving the mother alone. The clock 'ticked on' and the 'lamp went out.' The last play, A Pair of Lunaties was a screaming comedy. lt dealtgwith two persons, a. young lady and a man, who met at a ball in a lunatic asylum. each thinking the other one crazy. The many foolish actions and speeches indeed seem to prove it so, altho 'tis found at last, that they are sane. The parts were taken by Helen Shull and Earliest Van VValker.

A The Annual High School Play was presented Friclay. Mai' li - the twenty-third, at the I. O. O. F. hall, before 2 large and apprecia- hat the Story ls About tive audience. Thowe in charge certainly displayed good jnclgnient when they selected VVhat Happened to Jule for it has enjoyed a long run with road companies as well as amateur organizations. The play is a coniedy dealing with the trials and tribulations of one Jones, and the Goodly family. Richard Heatherly, future sin-in-law of the staid science professor, Ebenezer Goodly. per- suades the latter to attend a prize-fight with him. While there the place is raided, Goodly, Heatherly and Jones Ca salesman for hymn books and playing eardsj make their escape via a water spout, but so closely followed by the police that Jones leaves a good third of his coat in the hands of an officer. They reach the Goodly home just as Helma. the Swedish servant girl receives a suit of clothes delivered for the bishop of Ballarat CGoodly'S brotherj who is hourly expected to arrive for a visit. The police are at the door. so Helnia is bribed. Jones hides the tell-tale coat, dons the Bishop's and the officers are inet by a Bishop. Then follows the troubles of Jones, for to all. even to Alvina fthe Bishop's sweetheartl he is Bishop Goodly. The real Bishop arrives. Jones sends his suit to be pressed, and tells him to remain in bed. But he wanders about in a blanket and is mistaken for an escaped lunatic. The police return. find the Bishop wearing the tell-tale coat, arrest him and carry him off despite the pleas of his brother. Explanations follow and the Bishop is returned. Jones. in the meanwhile having fallen in love with Cissy, Goodly's niece, explains his presenee by saying it was the only way in which he might call and claim his bride. A sigh of relief from the audience, Jones is saved, all are happy, and the cur- tain descends on one of the best plays ever given here. The acting of every member of the east was unusually good. The costuming and stage effects showed time and thought had been given them. a point often slighted by amateurs. . Mr. Deane, assisted by Miss Hamilton, had charge ofthe pre- sentation and the success of the performance was to a great extent due to their untiring efforts. Many requests for a repetition of the play were received. but owing to the many other school affairs 'which were to take place in the near future, they could not be granted. Mr. Deane- How would you like to have a pet monkey? Genevieve- Oh. this is so sudden. 'i2f lZP Basketb ailiimdi PLAYERS GIRLS Alice Couch ................. Center Mildred Sweitzer ........

If you haven 't seen either, f Youlre an unfortunate geezer, For youive missed one of life's principal joys. Up to two years ago we had no basket ball in our school. At that time Miss Hamilton and Mr, Spuler agreed to coach the girls' and boys' teams, respectively. But we had absolutely no place to play. After the matter was presented to Mr. O. B. VVilliams, he kindly rented us his hall, which we equipped in a very satisfac- tory manner. So well did Miss Hamilton and Ixfr. Spuler do their work that from the start our teams struck a winning gait. Their success con- tinued altho they played town teams of men, and high school grad- uates who were' trained right up to the mark. VVe believe the only teams that defeated us were from two of the larger schools farther west in the county, and they defeated us badly. So successful were the season's games. financially, that we paid all expenses, rent, equipment, etc.-and had a small amount left over at the end of the year. So popular were the games that the people held a special electionand one-third more voted for a new gymnasium than voted againt it, hhut- but- but-well, we don 't know why We never got the gymnasium. I This year theeteams did much better work even than last year. and from the score of llti:-1 against us by Montesano last year, we this year tied them for three-fourths of the game, when one of our men Jas put out of the game and another who had not practiced for weeks was substithted, when the score ran lp to 31 :24. Too much credit cannot be given to Miss Hamilton and Mr. Fpuler for their tireless efforts to develop winning teams. They have ever been willing and anxious to give freely of their time and ability toward this end, and this despite the fact that they received nw additional remuneration for the work, and were already teaching as many periods as High School teachers are expected to teach. All honor to this willing and able pair. . 1 , n- ' - - - u N ' n ' s ' s X. N. I , X Alf J 6,-x.
