Senior Class Prophecy ONE MORNING I received a strange communication which I read in great surprise. “Come to the cave of the gypsies. Friday, twelve p. m. Important.” was scratched upon the card. Fearful, yet curious. I re- solved to go and discover the meaning of it. A little before the appointed time I entered the dark thick- et which screened the mouth of the cave. Af- ter some difficulty I lo- cated the black opening and while I hesitated be- fore it a hand touched my arm and pulled me forward. Greatly mys- tified and frightened I followed tremblingly. After going miles as it seemed to me. we enter- ed a large hall filled with weird, greenish light and I saw who my guide was. She was an old. shrivelled and gau- dilly dressed gypsy, and her voice, as she spoke, was cracked and hollow. It is you.” she said, ‘“that I am to give the p r o p h e cy concerning your brlliant classmates end their futures.” Immediately I was interested. She led the way across the hall to a large rock before which she stopped. She then rapped upon the floor three times and lifting her hands upward, mut- tered a weird incantation. Suddenly the great rock shook, then quietly rolled to one side, disclosing a narrow dark opening. This is the door to the future.” said the gypsy, enter- ing the passage. We went for a few feet in total darkness, then turning sharply to the left a wonderful sight met my gaze. There l efore me were hundreds of ghastly figures moving here and there, some at work, others not. “Come, we will find your friends.” said the gypsy, and we entered, scanning the faces as we went. Suddenly I started, as a figure rose at one side and walk- ed to a piano. Surely, surely that was our class president. Ix?o Headley, who stood before me with such a satisfied ex- pression. He turned, bowing low to all sides then sat down and began to play. “Ah!” said a voice behino me. “There is the celebrated Prof. Si Headley, the great singer and player, so well known in American vaudeville. He plays mast frequently in St. Louis!” But the gypsy hurried me on and I missed the treat. Then a familiar voice reached my ear and I turned to behold George Hickey addressing a vast crowd on the Bene- fits of Socialism.” But I had heard it all before in Political Economy Class so I turned away. “America’s favorite actor and actress.” said the old gypsy, and upon a platform stood Anna Wright and AUyn Logan in the roles of Juliet and Romeo. Then two figures carrying huge books and wearing nose- Skeat”.— “Yes. I take domestic science. glasses passed us. They were Emil Bennett and Ovid Schae- fer, professors of Science and I atin in a famous Eastern college. Suddenly, as we were passing a ghostly automobile, I stumbled over two feet protruding from beneath. Wonder- ingly, I passed to the other side and there beheld the goggled visage of Raymond Dutnil. He, I was told, was a famous auto-racer. Nearby were two familiar faces. Hester Canine sat at a piano playing accompaniments for Genevieve Huston, who was warbling delightfully. These two. as 1 learned were greatly in demand for chatauquas, lecture courses, and such. As a second Caruso. Ross Morton held a great audience spellbound, and when he had finished, the applause was thunderous. Then we passed a group of athletes. In the foreground loomed the tall figure of the famous high-jump star, Ray Honnold. “Buck wore many medals and was the athletic trainer at Harvard. He was trying in vain to convince his old friends Leslie Hildreth and Leslie Maxwell of the super- iority of red hair over brown. Heiter and Max. so the gycsy said, were star members of the Cubs. Henry Gil- bert was also close by. “Heine,” too, was in demand as an athletic trainer. Georgena Sellar in a cap and gown and holding a yel- low manuscript in one hand was being introduced to a circle of admirers as the “eminent Latin poetess.” The gypsy told me that Georgena was rather fond of athletic trainers. Then a pious young man approached with a book under one arm. Imagine my astonishment when I saw that he was Powell ShoafT! A preacner! I don’t suppose that he ever draws pictures or throws paper wads any more,” I said. “No, he has reformed.” replied my guide. Before I had fully recovered from this blow I received another. Peering over the heads of a gaping audience I saw a circus in progress. Pushing closer I recognized some of the actors, and stared unbelieving. Riding gracefully upon a trained elephant, was Ethel Hinds, dressed brilliantly in a fluffy, sparkling costume. Standing close by, poised dainti- ly upon one foot on the head of a two-stepping horse, was Esther Black. Swinging from a trapese and performing nerve-straining feats, was James Williams. But most won- derful of all was the noble bravery of Frank O’Hair in giving r- representation of “Teddy Roosevelt lion hunting in Afri- ca. Then, following the gaze of others, I looked up. and at a dizzy height far above, was LaVerne Bell walking a tight rope. The whole performance was superb and I was assured that it was greatly in demand. We passed on and came to a figure busily engaged with pen and ink. “The celebrated cartoonist, Richard Leitch,” said the gypsy, America’s foremost pen artist.” A youth carrying two pails passed by us. That is Clif- ford White, respected farmer of Grandview, explained the seeress. A sign Patent Medicine Bureau caught my eye and the gypsy guided me into the booth. Charley Curl was the agent of the concern. In each hand he carried a large bottle. At his right, stood June Drake, at his left, Lena Mopps. “This marvellous remedy makes thin people fat. and fat people thin!” proclaimed Charley. Two weeks ago Miss Drake was a living skeleton, and Miss Mopps the other extreme! Now, see them! This wonderful, etc., etc.—” Many eager pur- Moral of “Courtship of Miles Standish.”—It don’t take a warrior to stand in with the ladies. chasers pushed forward and I was told that they were mak- ing a fortune of it. On the other side Hazel Yowell was demonstiating a magic hair-curling liquid which she poured over Bertha Fry’s hair. They also found many buyers. On leaving the shop I saw two fashionably dressed young women who proved to lie Kathleen Logan and Blanche Cry- der. The Countess de Flei, and the Duchess of Crowburg.” Oh!” I exclaimed. “Then they didn't marry--------?” No.” said the gypsy, they both married Frenchmen. Further on we met a smartly dressed young man with a gold headed cane and a broad smile, who greeted everyone effusively. The gypsy turned to me. “That is Ary St. John. v. great sportsman, and a candidate for the president of the United States. The issue is rather doubtful yet.” Norine Fauble was a foreign missionary and a great favorite with her Chinese scholars. Walter Nugent was an eminent spellbinder. “Oh, I see the ‘Delineator” once ii Lucile Barkley was a farmer’s wife and was noted for her “Domestic Science dinners. We also met Thomas Hamilton in a stunning military uniform. He held an enviable position in the Unites States army. Clifford Rahel, as a fancy dancer, and dancing master was a great success and was called to the courts of Europe to perform before kings. Exia Wade passed with her husband, who was a weal- thy southern planter. June Waggoner had a Beauty Shop conceded to be the most fashionable in Chicago, and Pearl Galeener was the chief hair-dresser of the establishment. Ethel Cline after gaining prestige as an artist founded a home for delapidated cats and does. “Now you have seen them all.” said the gypsy. So I wended my way back to spread the news abroad. —E. C.

As we entered these halls of learning, usually called Paris High School, in September. 1908. full eighty-five strong. Rumor on her fleet wings hastened about with the glad tidings that Fate had de- creed the Class of '12 to be the most noted of all classes. We have certainly made good this report. The present Senior class has always acted as leader in all undertakings, whether in quest of knowledge, on the ath- letic field, in any other sport, or even in mischief-making to annoy our ever-patient teachers. As early as our Freshman year, our class has had boys and girls displaying their melo- dious voices in the Glee Club and Semi-chorus, we have had strong and victorious men on track and field, wonderful base- ball twirlers. football experts, basketball stars and handsome military men. The girls, too. in different ways have always been most loyal to Maroon and White. In all things in which the members of the Class of '12 have entered, they have, each and every time been victorious, coming from the battle crowned with the laurel wreath and in their hands waving the palm branch over their antagonists, cheered on by the fair maidens and youths for whom our class is noted. We know not the meaning of defeat for never has it been our hapless luck to be driven back vanquished. Then. too. in the realms of society, the Class of '12 has held a prominent place. The reception which last year, we as Juniors gave to our distinguished Senior Class of '11. was by far the most brilliant and successful reception ever given by a Junior Class of the High School to their Senior friends. The Class Party, also, given this spring at the home of Miss Kath- leen Logan, was a very creditable and delightful affair. The reader by this time must lie of the opinion that the Class of '12 is a prodigy and by no means is he mistaken for this class has been a great favorite with the faculty (?), has been successful in all undertakings, a class whom all future classes will reverence and whom they should take as a model if they desire honor and glory. The forty members of the Class of '12 have done all with- in their power to boost dear old Paris High and each one feels honored to think tnat he or she is a member of this illustrious class whose name will go down in history as most extra- ordinary. We are sure the underclasses of P. H. S. and even the faculty will always “sit up and take notice at mention of the Class of '12 and always be leady to give a Tiger for Ma- roon and White. —June E. Dmkc, '12. A big joke—June Drake. Senior Fancies EIRI) mid-summer moon, your mystic light Illumes the realms of Fancy's delight. And on the river’s ripples green Casts its glancing, shimmering sheen: While on the verdant bank below A student watches the waters go. And lists to the voices of the night Borne to him o’er the waves so bright. And under the influence of your light The past is brought to his mind this night. He remembers how. four years before. His class first entered the high school door. How awed, by the teachers stern and tall Who guarded them through the classic halls. How that when they had learned the place. They entered in earnest into the race: An arduous course up the mount of learning. An occasion for which they’d long been yearning. How some had fallen the way beside Left behind by tne powerful tide. Which in the class room and in the field. Carried all before it and would not yield. How after a lapse of two years’ time The class had parted at the Rhine Some on German ground to tiead The rest to Rome returned instead. How steadily, an unyielding tide They had surged up the mountain side How at last, at the top, their bosoms swell: Victors of the field they had fought so well. At their feet the Junior legions lie Gazing with eager eyes trained high Upon the tall and dizzy height Where proudly flies the red and white. And farther down the sloping bank The Sophomores stand rank on rank; While in the distance dim and gray The hosts of Freshman students stay. But at their sides the sea of life Beats on with never ending strife. Upon this sea they soon must go Into the battle for weal or woe. Will their voyage upon this sea Be calm, like the waters or the lea? Or will’t be rough, with roar on roar As when high waves beat the rocky shore? Both perhaps, but still they go Into the battle for weal or woe. With jcyous hearts and willing hands To scatter, mayhap, through many lands; But ne’er to forget, where e’er they dwell The gloiious class of nineteen twelve (1912). Lead us on, O moon! steady and true Like the tide which ever follows you. Through days of pleasure and days of strife Guide us across the sea of lire. And the moon sails high and the stars stand still And voices of night pipe high and shrill While the student on the bank below Sleeps while the waters past him flow. —J. O. S.. ’12. Yes, I think I’ll get out of all my exams— Ore.' The Spirit Chapter I. THE DRONING in the room had ceased. Every eye was directed toward the principal who stood white-faced but fiim behind her desk. Every student knew that what she was preparing to say was something that was very serious. A slight shadow of pain crossed her care-worn reatures and she hesitated before speaking as if undecided what to say. There was not a student in the room that did not honor and respect her. Finally with an effort she began: “It pains me very much to say what I have to but it is nec- essary that I should; as you know tomorrow is the beginning of the quarterly examinations,—” she hesitated and then continued. “I had in my desk a typewritten copy of the ques- tions on History and last night they disappeared.” An oppressive shadow pervaded the assembly room; the radiators sputtered and hissed; stopped, and all was silent again. The students looked at each other in a frightened manner and they again heard the weak and trembling voice of the principal saying, “I—I—I hope they disappeared by ac- cident for I want to trust you all. I have '•onfidence in you and I leave it to your honesty and honor to do the right thing in this matter. If I only knew—.if—ye—yes I will leave it with you. That is all. The principal turned away with a wearied expression, and she saw the classes moving about as if they we “ ohan- toms. She was not angry, nor did she wish to nunish. but she had lost confidence in her pupils; those pupils who always dealt honestly with her. honored her, and respected her. She Seniors in back pi of P. H. S. tried to put the thought out of her mind but she could not. She suspected no one, but she was firm in her determination to sift the matter to the bottom. Matters were coming to a conclusion sooner than she had dreamed of. She soon went to her office and there she was confronted by a handsome lad, whose vety face bespoke honesty. His clear, blue eyes looked fearlessly into hers and he immediately began, “Miss Griffin, 1 came because I felt it my duty to do so. I am thinking only of the honor of P. H. S. In the first place. Miss Griffin. I am innocent of taking the examination papers, but I—I—I am sure 1 know who took them. Now understand, I do not wish to be a tale bearer, but it is the principle of the thing. Miss Griffin was now looking steadily into that handsome face and finally said, Harry, I admire the stand you are taking. It speaks well for the school but it is asking a good deal of you to betray your friends.

Miss Griffin.” The principal looked pained and grieved as Harry made this announcement, and spoke slowly. “How do you know this?” “I saw them in her desk this morning early.” But why were you in her desk. Harry?” Harry had not expected a question like this and it irritated him. rt of assembly.—“Let’s all laff. Well you—you see 1 carried her books to school for her this morning.” • That will be all. Har;y. 1 thank you. ou have done the right thing.’’ Chapter II. “Margaret, why did you do this? I was surprised and shocked when I found the paper in your desk. “But Miss Griffin, I did not do it. I don’t know how the paper got in my desk. Please do not question me farther. Margaret was now crying and was distracted beyond control, for she had undergone a kind but rigid questioning. I am afraid Margaret, you will have to leave school. I am very sorry but it can not lie helped. Do not think too hard of Harry for he did this for your best interest. You may go now. I do not hold any grudge against you.” Margaret gathered her books together and started on her way home. She was a changed girl. From a lively and care-free young girl she was transformed into a sad and de- spised little “sneak.” as she called herself. On her way home she met a large broad shouldered young fellow full of life and mischief. It could easily be seen that he was an athlete. His frank, open face inspired confidence at once. “Well, Margaret, can’t you give me a more pleasant look than that? What is the troubleT Margaret soon told him her trouble, and his eyes narrowed, and his jaw grew firm, and a dangerous smile played over his face. There is something strange about this. Margaret. I be- lieve you are innocent. And Harry of all fellows! Do not worry about this. When may I see you again?” Tonight if you wish. Ernest.” she quietly answered. None but girls with the Ernest Nay passed on with conflicting thoughts running through his brain. He knew Margaret was innocent and his only desire was to prove it. She was the best girl in the world he told himself, and he would do anything for her. Ernest soon arrived at school and he immediately went to Miss Grif- fin. He had decided what to do. He startled her by saying. Miss Griflin, I stole those examination papers; I placed them in Margaret's desk rather than my own because I thought a girl would not be suspected. I am not fit to be in school; I know i am a dishonor to it. but I want to do the right thing by Margaret and the school.” His face was flushed with ex- citement; he was not telling the truth and he knew it. but he continued. Margaret knew nothing of it. She is innocent and-------.” In the doorway stood Harry and Margaret looking on the scene in astonishment, and both were nearly breathless. “Why! what is the matter?” questioned Miss Griflin. “I—want-ed to tell—you I—didn't do it. Har-ry did it.” she finally gasped. “Sit down, please. I don't understand this. I expelled Margaret for I thought she did it. and then Ernest says he did it. and now you say Harry did it.” Harry, who had been standing in the doorway with a dejected look, now spoke. Miss Griflin, I want to make a confession. Miss Margaret has never liked me for some reason and I have never liked Ernest. I can not explain exactly. 1 wished to make them both appear in a bad light so I stole the papers and placed them in Margaret's desk. I knew Ernest would defend her and get into trouble himself. I then told you. and this is the re- sult. I am sorry I did it. and I felt so bad over it that I ran after Margaret and told her before she arrived home. I want crimson hair for mine.—Sheets.' them as friends now for I know their true value. I have done «n awfully mean thing but I ask all your pardon. Margaret, Ernest, will you shake hands with me? At first they hesitated and then stepped forward and grasped his hand. They were too affected for words. Miss Griffin merely turned away with a happy smile and said, “I knew I could trust you all. 1 have tried to t eat you kindly. I hope I have succeeded. You have succeeded. Miss Griffin. returned Harry. Ernest and Margaret left school together, each feeling happy and at the same time, sorry for Harry. They walked in silence for several minutes until Margaret said, Ernest, why did you do it? A song suddenly was heard from many throats:— We’re loyal to you. Paris High We’’® faithful to you. Paris High We'll back you to-------- “Margaret, may I still come down tonight? asked Ernest. A pair of laughing blue eyes was his reply. Lita Davis—“Miss Miller wants to sec you.1 CALENDAR, A. P.

D. 1909 marks that event which is un- doubtedly the mast important in the world’s history since the Renaissance—an incident worthy of several volumes of exhaustive discussion and disquisition. It was then that the class of thirteen” entered the Paris High School; the class fiom which all the great men and women of a half century ago came; the class which turned the world upside down; revolutionized politics and government and made the earth a pleasant place wherein to live. Even as Freshmen these extraordinary people exhibited remarkable signs of human intelligence, and what is more they conducted themselves in such a manner that they gave no room for ridicule by upped classmen. Instructors regarded them as infant prodigies, and the desperate and unsuccessful attempts made by these staid professors to discover facts un- known to their pupils was excruciatingly funny. Several times during the Freshman and Sophomore years the (de) merits of the members of the aforesaid class, and their unremitting diligence and marvelous stunts, gained for certain individuals vacations of varying lengths, which the faculty granted out of the kindness of their hearts. In fact this practice was observed during the whole school career. and made a break in the otherwise monotonous journey of high school life. But the height of their gloi.v and power came in the Jun- ior year, when having completed the course of study by pa- tiently imparting to their so-called instructors all that they were capable of learning, they commenced their own educa- tion. This was in the line of athletics. New material arrived and old revived to further the cause of clean sport in P. H. S. and offer a laudable example to other and inferior classes. The lame of 13 spread far and wide and accordingly the High School was renowned for its students. It became a common occurence for strangers who attended basket ball games or field events to say. whenever a star brought glory to himself, “Ah. yes! A Junior in P. H. S. of course. I might have known.” Moreover it was these Juniors who discovered a new and novel use of the aeroplane and at the same time outwitted their school mates who were unwisely attempting to display their class colors. The class of ’13 sent the purple and white up in a visiting airship, gaining for themselves the distinction which was rightfully theirs. So glory, honor and fame became theirs—Freshmen. Sophomores and Seniors alike, revered and feared them, in- structors admired, respected and loved them, and in future years those who had known them were glad to claim the mem- bers of the class of 13 as acquaintances. Any old color so long as its red, is the color that suits me best.—Field—and also Buck” Honnold. All’s Well That Ends Well MARION sat with her hands thrust into her disheveled, curly hair, looking straight in front of her. For ful- ly half an hour she sat there absorbed in thought. Then suddenly she snatched up her pen, and hurriedly wrote a note. After it was finished she put it in an envelope and addressed it. Well, that will teach Mr. Phil Randall that he can't fool with me. exclaimed the girl angrily, as she arose from her seat. The next time he breaks an engagement with me he'll know it.” The cause of all the trouble was that Phil Randall, to whom Marion was engaged, had suddenly been called away on the evening of his Fraternity dance, and had neglected to let her know. Thus she waited until ten o'clock for Phil to put in his appearance and then finally, in no pleasant mood, went to bed, vowing that Mr. Phil Randall could go his way and she would go hers from that day forth. True, she had received a rote from him early the next morning, apologizing for break- ing the engagement. He had been called home suddenly, on account of the illness of his sister and had been so worked up over this that he had forgotten the dance and everything else. “Surely she would understand” but nevertheless Marion did not understand, and so she had just finished the cutting littl note stating that she did not and could not understand, and from that day, they were to be strangers. She took off the solitaire she was wearing and went over to her dressing table, where she began a diligent search for something. At last it was found and the ring was thrust into the box and shortly lay beside the letter addressed to Mr. Phil- ip Randall, Beta Theta Phi House. Madison. Wisconsin. Its a shame this all had to happen just the day before I am to graduate! I don't see how I can sing that song to- night. Mother and father aic both expecting so much on my commencement night, and I know I shall fail completely. Any other song I could sing, but that one! It is Phil's favor- ite, and I despise it just as I do him. Well I'll have to do it but I know it will be a miserable efTort. I'll show him though! I'll sing it as I never did for him! Mother and father won't be ashamed of me! That evening when Marion was dressed in her whit 1 graduating gown no one could tell by the sweet, flushed face that a struggle between pride and love was going on within. She had never looked so well as she did, when the professor announced that Marion Milburn of the Class of 1913 would sing. She stepped before the large audience in the auditor- ium, the sweetest type of young American womanhood. “Without you dear, the day would hold no light. The kindly stars would vanish in the night. The flowers would forget to wake at morn. The rose die sleeping leaving but the thorn. Without you. Dear.” Her voice rose sweet and clear, and as she surveyed the audi- ence, a familiar face caught her glance. It was Phil, and she thought he had gone home. Her voice quivered slightly, and then seeing a reassuring smile on his face she once more re- gained her composure. If P. H. S. was waterproof, would Pearl Black—burn? Without you, dear, no promise would be bright, Hope’s golden sun would darken at its height. The world of all its glory would be shorn. And I, be left a wanderer forlorn Without you. Dear.” The last word died away. Though Marion scarcely heard the applause she felt in her heart that she had not made a mis- erable failure, and was glad, not for her own. nor even for her parents’ sake, but for Phil’s sake, and with this reali- zation, the old love triumphantly returned and crushed all the foolish pride. She was sorry she had written the note and acknowledged to herself that she had been unjust. After the congratulations were all over, she slipped quiet- ly to the dressing room for her coat. A familiar voice greet- ed her, as she passed into the dimly lighted corridor. You were splendid tonight, Marion,” said Phil, can’t you for- give me yet?” “I did many days ago.” said Marion, “but I didn’t real- ize that love was stronger than pride till tonight.” —.V . C.

Sophomore Class History IN THE fall of nineteen hundred and ten, I was one of a large company of Freshmen, who found their way into the Paris High School. We have the honor of being the largest class to have entered this building; but by no means the greenest. We have made mistakes; but this is no worse than many Freshmen have done before us, and no doubt in years to come the annals of our class will go down, not only in the history of P. H. S. and Paris, but be noted in the world's tvents. The Freshman year gradually passed away and the great- est part ol us became Sophomores. Although we have not been as good this year as our instructors might wish, some of us have managed to pull through the first semester’s work and are still plugging away. We have developed a good basket ball team and won hon- ors on the track and baseball diamond. We have defeated the Juniors in many athletic contests, and have, this year, a base- hall team with which we hope to win many victories. We also make some progress along an educational line, and our school work has not been interfered with by our high standing in athletics. While we are producing athletes for the honor of the school, it is not along lines of physical strength alone we .'hall be remembered; but 1914 has contributed largely to the more intellectual enterprises which make P. H. S. an inter- esting and popular high school. The voices of a Caruso and Sembrich have caused public lomment and placer! the Glee Club and Semi-Chorus in thi front ranks of musical organizations of Eastern Illinois. The High School has this year organized a literary’ society, and our class has contributed several of the leading members and officers. The strain which this wide range of interests put upon cur class was relieved, fortunately, by the installation of a new demerit system in the high school, which enabled several cf our more energetic members to take a much needed vaca- tion and being fully benefited by it, they returned with more serious determinations and higher ideals. We have come to realize what we are here for and hope to continue the record we have established, and leave the school, when our four years are over, to go into the world, and become great men and women. —Me., '14. If Faye Huston likes Maxwell, does she like Paul Best? A Sophomore Victory IT WAS in the last inning of a sensational baseball game be- tween the Sophomore and the Junior class nines of Yale College for the championship of the school. In the pre- liminary games the Juniors had won from the Seniors and the Sophomores had easily defeated the Freshies. Accordingly this would be the final game for the leadership of the college and class spirit and rivalry ran high. As it was a fine day the whole college had turned out to see the game which was hotly contested throughout. Class yells and shouts of encouragement were heard continuously. The purple and gold pennants of the Juniors and the red and black ones of the Sophomores, as well as the college colors, were everywhere displayed. At the end of the eighth inning the score stood one to one with the Juniors the first to bat in the ninth. They scored one run on a combination of two hits, an error, and a wild pitch. This brought forth a tumult of shouting from the Ju- nior supporters while their opponents, the Sophomores, cheer- ed their men by relying on their ability to win out in a pinch. The first two Sophomores to bat were weak hitters and one fanned out while the other hit a pop fly into the pitcher’s hands. The Juniors were now sure of victory, but the Sopho- mores advised them to wait and see what the next man would do. “Shorty” Johnson came to the plate determined to take some of the pride out of Bell, the purple and gold pitcher, and to help bring victory to the red and blacks. He knocked the ball into left field and reached first base easily. This brought forth a rousing class yell from the Sophs and caused ? frantic waving of red and black pennants. Everyone was on his feet as victory seemed to swing between the two teams. Could the red and black men score two runs? This would win the game and the Sophomore followers had enough con- fidence in their men to believe that they could do it. On the first ball pitched to Buck” Adams. “Shorty” stole second. The next moment “Buck” hit a hard grounder to the shortstop, getting to first in safety, but “Shorty” was held j.t second base. Now was the time for a good hit and “Jack Lamb, the next batter, struck at the first ball pitched, but missed it. The next ball was a wild pitch, on which Johnson and Adams moved up a base. “Jack struck at the next one and then two more balls were called. The crowd had stopped cheering and it was do or die with “Jack. The ball came on a line toward the plate, low and swift. Lamb struck with all his might. The ball sailed out over the fielder's head. Shor- ty reached home safely. “Buck” was past third, running r.s hard as he could. The right fielder had the ball in his hand. Buck” slid for home; the catcher caught the ball and touched him just as he slid into the base. The crowd was still as death, waiting for the umpire’s de- cision. “Safe, cried the umpire at last. The shouting of the Sophomores was deafening while their colors waved vigorous- ly and serenely in the air. The students swarmed about the ictorious team and carried the players around on their shoul- ders while all looked on and admired. This contest, which made the Sophomores the class baseball champions and es- tablished their supremacy in the college, will long lie remem- 1-ered. as will “Jack” Lamb, the hero of the game. —Albert Foley. ’14.

Freshman Class History ONE DAY in September. 1911. a strange band of savages presented themselves before the door of that high sanctuary known as the Paris High School. Wild and uncivilized as they were they nevertheless demanded admis- sion. Everyone jeered at them and heaped taunts and ridicule upon their poor defenseless heads until they were utterly crushed and made to recognize their unimportance. But there were among them, many who would not endure this without a struggle, and consequently many wordy battles ensued in which, wonder of wonders! the Freshmen were often vic- torious. These uncouth s| ecimens of humanity were not. it seems, so green or ignorant as first api earances would lead one to suspect. They advanced rapidly along the flowery path of knowledge under the guidance of many worthy pedagogues and. although there were no mental or physical feats worthy of much commendation, the Freshmen soon began to win the giudging respect of the upper classmen who had once ridi- culed their uncouthness. They did their best in athletics and gained much-needed experience, but not so many honors. They took part when- ever possible, in all athletic meets and contests and some of their representatives showed many strong points. They are hoping and praying for the year to come in which they may help win many honors for which the school is so famous. In far away 1915 they will Ire Seniors.—Seniors upon whom honors are heajred and glory lavishly poured. So even ‘hough they are now weak let us look with them into a glor- ious future, one in which will be found no regrets for the past hut only joyful fulfillment of all their fondest dreams. —G. Sanders, ’15. If Exia Wade Anna Wright, would Georgena Sellar? The Call of the Sea HIGH up in the mountains of Norway a castle once rest- ed on a lonely rock o’erlooking the sea. Sometimes the sunlight threw its setting rays on the soft, placid, water of the great, silent fjord. Or when the sea was stormy it presented a terrible scene, the wild waves would dash their spray against the cliffs and it would seem that the god of the sea had lost control of the tempestuous waves and the de- mon of the lower world had taken possession. Great white capped mountains of green foam arose and fell with the fuiv of the storm and the wind drove great, blinding sheets of rain into the faces of all who ventured out in the night when the call of the sea was first heard by the people of Norway. Inside the great castle there was joy and gladness for it was the wedding day of the beautiful child of the noble fam- ily. At the great ball, feasting, merrymaking, dancing, everything heart could desire was there. The immense ball room was a great, gorgeous mass of roses and palms while the lights flashed soft, beautiful tints upon the white polish- ed floor. Here the dancers were gliding to and fro. a living, breathing accompaniment to the soft, rich music which is- sued from a palm and lily bower. Guests were also seated in the dining room and laughter and merry jests were free- ly intermingled with the music which swelled here so vi- brantly. In the midst of all this there was heard a strange, wild cry issuing from the direction of the sea, a cry so full of hope, despair, longing and pathos that the hearts of the merry- makers seemed to thrill at the strange, weird music. Once again and nearer it came and with such a strange impelling force in the cry that in spite of the rain, and of the storm the silent hast of merrymakers rushed out into the night. The ciy was heard no more but a low. musical lullaby issued from the mass of white capped waves. A sudden blinding flash of lightning lit up the scene and a woman was seen with her child in her arms, far out in the storm-tossed sea. But the frail, little boat was moving as gently as though it were a soft summer evening in the Norwegian twilight. The waves were washing toward the shore and the boat was drifting nearer and nearer to the silent watchers. On a stretch of smooth, white sand farther down the shore the woman was finally cast ashore. There she was found and cared for in the great, handsome castle on the cliff. She departed from the castle one dark, stormy night and was seen no more by mortal man. Perhaps the call of the sea is only a tradition. Perhaps it is only a legend conjured up by the superstitious Norwe- gians. Who can tell ? But often on dark, stormy nights fisher- men fancy they hear the same wild, weird cry issuing from the bosom of the sea and some affirm that they have seen a lady, shrouded in white, floating along on the stormy expanse of the ocean and then they say that it is the mysterious lady who came to them that dark, wild night in the heart of the storm. Miss Wenz— Allyn, you’re a pessimist!” A Dream ONE afternoon during the third period the Josh Editor was sleeping soundly at his desk, Row Q„ Seat 2, in the Assembly Room and he dreamed he was entering a swell dining room of a hotel named “Hotel de la Para High. He thought his conductor was an old friend named A. P. Harris and this proved to be true. When first entering he noticed our dear old music teacher Miss Price, paying her feed bill to the cashier, who after the second glance he found to be our old time friend the eagle-eyed Miss Carolyn Wenz. He went up to talk to her and while there, in walked Miss Mildred Roland with a Imsket of dairy products on each arm. Miss Wenz said she was running a dairy farm close by anc: furnished the cafe with her produce. Soon Brother A. W. Breidecker. the famous maker of sauer kraut walked in and we soon saw he was the same per- son who was once connecter! with the faculty of the Paris High School. The josher then took a seat at a nearby table and the chief waitress in the person of Miss Ella Slemmons rushed up to give her undivided attention to that table. She was asked if any more cf our former acquaintances were here and she called her chief assistant who was no one else than Miss Ethel Howell of the red hair. All were very glad to see a former friend and gave undivided attention to him. but sur- p;ise of surprises came when the familiar figure of Prof. E. B. Biooks came up to refill my water glass. While enjoying my meal I heard a superfluous use of words behind me and on turning around, saw our dearest of Professors O. R. Jones talking to an eager bunch of youthful admirers, presumably Freshmen, and trying to get them to di- gest a number of unknown words along with their meal. My onductor said he would show me the kitchen of the establish- ment and we started on our way when my attention was at- tracted by the form of the janitor on a high step ladder at- tending to the gas and electric light fixtures. This mechanic, cn closer inspection, proved to be our long lost Physicist. L. A. Pinkney and another hearty handshake occurred. Passing into the kitchen we were now prepared when we saw Miss Ethel Ogden presiding as chief chefess over a bunch of Dom. Scientists and in one corner we found two Millers grinding wheat for bread for the next day and somewhat removed from them we found one girl devouring a Lotta Graham crackers. Having met so many old-time friends and having spent such an enjoyable evening Mr. Harris and his guest were preparing to leave when all of a sudden the dream was brok- en up by Miss Wenz shouting from the rostrum of the As- sembly room. “Allyn, I think its about time for you to wake up.” If butter runs, can a cracker box? Oh, a tomato can. The Ten Demandments 1. Thou shalt have no books open before thee in class. 2.

Charleston Track Meet THE third annua) Invitation Interscholastic Athletic and Oratorical Meet was held at Charleston, Saturday, May 13, 1911. under the auspices of the Eastern Ill- inois State Normal School. This meet is held yearly at Charleston and always proves one of the best drawing at- tractions which takes place in the high school athletics. It is looked forward to the year round by the high schools cov- ering the district of Eastern Illinois. Last year's meet was probably the most successful ever held there, for under the able direction of Walter H. Eckersall, himself a holder of state records in several of the track events, the meet was a pleasure to everyone present, participants and spectators alike, as nothing occurred to mar the meet. With the able assistance of a number of Normal schcoi students, act- ing as police, the immense ctowd was handled in the mcst approved fashion. Thirty schools were entered with a totof 184 athletes. Every event was interesting and the meet was not won until the last event, when, after adding the points, Paris was declar- ed the winner. The relay race which did net count for points was hotly contested between Champaign. Hillsboro, Areola, Georgetown and Paris, it was finally won by Paris, the mem- bers of the Paris team running a very consistent race. The meet was won by Paris with a total of 27 points. Urbana com- ing second with 24 points, and Champaign. Hillsboro and Mat- toon following close. The results of the various events follow: HAMMER THROW:— «. Nickerson, Champaign, a. Lyon. Stockland. 3.

CHIEF POINT WINNERS RELAY TEAM AND TROPHY Let Mer—cury your horse. Baske THE basket ball team of 1011-1912 was one of the most remarkable in the history of the school. With the possible exception of Capt. St. Job , the team lacked experience r.nd this certainly was brou ?' during the season especially tcwaid the latter part. Although they failed to win the Eastern Illinois Championship, the team was rather unfortunate in having to play the strongest team at the tour- nament in the aftei noon, being unused to this the locals fail- ed to put up their best game. The team scored 593 point against 455 for their opponent?. A brief account of each game follows: The season was opened in the local gymnasium on Nov- ember 3rd. 1911. with Kansas High as our opponents. Paris High piled up one o. the highest scores of the season, winning 51 to 16. Capt, St. John was out of the next game. Maxwell and Risser Ailing his place acceptably. This was played on the Kansas High floor. In a close game Paris High won out to the tune of 37 to 23. The next game was played on the local floor with Shelby- ville High. The teams were evenly matched, each having one player, who was a member of the preceding year’s team. However Paris High scored 33 points to Shelbvville’s 21. The fourth game was on the local floor and was against the Paris Clippers, a team composed of experienced players but who were out of training. Paris High romped away with a 31-15 score. Shelbyville Business College came here on December 1st. and of course intended to wipe Paris High off the face of the earth, but they were some surprised when they lost a 29-26 game to Paris High. t Ball On the following Friday Paris High journeyed over to Shelbyvjlle to try conclusions again with the Business College team, this time after a rough and tumble affair, Paris High won a 28-27 game, this being their sixth successive victory. Charleston Normal was next to put in their claims and on December loth, they came over to Paris High and in a fast though rough game the Normal won a 21-13 game. On December 22nd, Palis travelled over to Shelbyville to take the high school into camp, but this time it was a close game, for at the end of playing time the score stood 25-25. The boys went back on the floor with a determination to win the game. Shelbyville threw a foul goal befoie Hamilton caged the winning field goal from close to the side-lines, giving Par- is the game 27 to 26. Wiley High of Terre Haute came to Paris with a deter- mination to win and certainly made the Tigers play to win. In the second overtime game of the season. Collier threw the winning goal. Paris High winning by a 29-27 score. On January 5th, 1912, Paris High traveled over to Bra- zil. Indiana, to try conclusions with the high school there. The game was close and exciting throughout.the first half ending 6 to 6 and the time was up with a 20 to 20 tie. In the overtime St. John threw a foul goal and the Brazil captain threw a foul goal, then Capt. St. John won the game for the locals by the score of 22 to 21. This was the third straight game which required oveitime to decide the result. Marshall Township High came to Paris on January 12th, to give Paris a close game as their team was thought to be stronger than ever before. However Paris took their measure with a 38 to 20 score. The following night Paris journeyed to Charleston to play a return game with the Normal. In one of the roughest games of the year Paris lost by the score of 46 to 20. Paris played Rockville, Ind., High on the following Fri- day night. This was expected to be one of the hardest games of the year but Paris won out with a 28-16 score. This was the first game Paris High ever won on a Rockville floor. Rockville played a return game at Paris on January 20. Paris won this game 31 to 11. February 2nd was the date set for Paris' return game with Wiley on their floor and with two regulars out of the game. Collier, forward, and Risser. guard. P. H. S. showed the fighting spirit in making Wiley play to win with a score of 29 to 21. Brazil High came over to Paris with a determination to even up the series as Paris had won the first game. Paris High played their best and fastest game of the year when they won by the score of 32 to 15. Paris High went to the tournament at Charleston with the team in excellent condition with the possible exception of Risser. Cn the afternoon of February 23rd, they met Onarga High in the preliminaries; Paris High played easy and won by the score of 41 to 29. As there were ten teams present enough for five preliminary games, it was ruled that the winner of the fifth game must play the closest laser a game at night. Paris was the fifth winner and Onarga the closest loser so in the night game Paris used every man on the squad and won with the score of 53 to 20. On Saturday afternoon. Paris High played Hillsboro High in the semi-finals. These two were granted to lie the two best teams entered. After a fast, close game Hillsboro won out with a score of 38-29. This eliminated Paris from further contests. Hillsboro won first place in the tournament. Shelbyville, second and Paris, third. The other teams enter- I love my wife. ed were Sumner. Chaileston. Marshall. Kansas, Martinsville. Onarga and Homer. The coaching of Prof. Pinkney and of Arbuckle, a mem- ber of last years all state team, probably had much to do with the remarkable showing of the team. The team was composed of Capt. St. John, Collier, Hamilton, Honnold, Ris- ser. Maxwell. Gilbert and Benson. Base Ball THIS year’s baseball team promises to l e one of the best in the history of the school, for under the direction of Captain Maxwell the team is fast rounding into form and expects to finish the season with a good record. 0 BENSON.

Puzzle—Find Napoleon in the picture. P. H. S. Cadets THE military organization Known as the Paris High School Cadets was begun in 1893 with Air. Gso:g. Crowell as di illmaster. The first company was small but it increased in numbeis and efficiency each year until ’09 which company has the honor of being the largest in the hh- tory of the organization. In ’02 and '03 there were no com- panies but each year since that has seen a well trained body of cadets which have helped to maintain the high standard of the school. The company of 'C6-’07 under Captain Ben Logan, and Lieutenants McDivitt and Brooks was fully equipped with new Springfield rifles and cnteied in a tournament at Decatur. Here by their superior drilling they won a beautiful loving cup which now adorns the interior of the High School building. Last year during the Home Coming the cadets entered a competivc drill, which included all the lodges of Edgar county and the local militaiy organization, and succeeded in winning a fifteen dollar prize. Later on in the year an exhibition drill was given in the Armory hall which was largely attended and pronounced a decided success. All the movements were exe- cuted perfectly and the manual of arms was especially good. At the close of the drill the company was inspected by Captain John Coady of the militia, who pronounced the company to be in good condition. The cadets also assisted in the Decoration day exercises. The company this year is composed of forty men beside Ihe officers, being equipped with regulation cadet uniforms and Springfield army rifles which they are permitted to use. An exhibition drill was also given during the Home Coming this year by the cadets alcne end was cr.e of the main attrac- tions. being witnessed ty a large number of people. The annual •'hike” to Vei million which was begun by last year’s company, was taken during the winter and good time was made considering the condition of the roads which were pretty bad. At Stepp station a sham battle was held between the two platoons of the company. Unfortunately the tournament which was to have been held here this spring had to lie called off. Invitations had been sent to a number of schools having cadet organizations. However, there is no doubt that, had the tournament been held, the local organization would have up- held the high standard of drilling which former companies have set. The following are the officers of the company of ’ll and '12. Captain RAY HONNOLD. Firit Lieutenant. TOM HAMILTON. Second Lieutenant WALTER RISSER. Sergeants:— Firtt. CLIFFORD RAHEL. Second.

Listen!!! Who are all those noble looking Carusos we see standing before us? Shall I introduce them? No. Everyone knows them. They are that famous Paris High School Glee Club. But. hark! Did I hear n peal of thunder? No. alas! it was only those basses; then a soft, melodious tone like that of a lute announced the pres- ence of the tenors, and then, as we are held in suspense, the whole club breaks into one glad refrain.

The Paris High School Glee Club has just completed one of the most successful years in the history of that organiza- tion. Duiing the year they have lurnished selections for the teacher’s institute, the oratorical contest, and various other entertainments. Near the beginning of the year, how- ever. they began piactice for the Minstrel, which, by the way. was voted the greatest success ever attained by any P. H. S. organization. The performance opened with the entire company in cir- !e. Richard Leitch acting as interlocutor, and Leo Headley. Al- lyn Logan, Leslie Maxwell, and Clifford Rahel as end men. with George Hickey and Tom Collier as star end men. In this pait many jokes, stale and otherwise, were introduced, enlivened with numerous local hits which kept the audience in a continual uproar. The jokes were interspersed with solos by Paul Best. Ross Morton. Ailyn Logan. Rue Link, and Les- lie Hildreth, each of whom acquitted himself creditably and responded to hearty encores. Leo Headley in the “Chicken Rag with Tom Collier impersonating Chanticleer received their share of applause. Tom Collier did credit to himself in his management of the “Big Brass Band and the first part was brought to a close amid a thunder of applause with Col- lier and ensemble in Alexander’s Rag Time Band. The second part opened with a reunion of the Bachelors and Benedicts. Each side at first contended that their man- ner of life was the best; but the Bachelors were finally forced to admit that their lives were cold, barren and cheerless in comparison with the joys and comforts of the lives of the Benedicts. Special numbers in this part were Emil Taflinger When Tom Collier waits does Faye Taf—linger? in Friendship's Name,” and Clifford Rahel in Gee, but its lonesome, kid!” The Burlesque on the Floridora Sextette was one of the best features of the evening and well deserved the applause it receiver!. Headley, Risser and Logan carrier! their parts wcl! while Hamilton. Best and Collier impersonating girls, receiv- er! repeated encores. Leo Headley in his Stump Speech” gave promise of his future career as a political speaker, although it is to Ire hoped that wnen he acquires fame as such he will have both ears the same color. Boys, don’t loaf in the Dc George Hickey and Richard Leitch covered themselves with gloiy in the Jewish Dialogue, and did so well that they afterwards held down the boaids for a week at a local theatre. The jieiformance closed with a cake walk introducing the entire company. The Minstrel was such a success that it was repeated by request. This success was undoubtedly due to the very able supervision and the untiring efforts of Miss Price. A great deal of credit is also due Miss Ethel Staurt for her faithful and efficient work at the piano. m. Sci. room.—Prof. Brooks BASEBALL GAMF. Photo by J«y.

Semi-Chorus LISTEN! what was that?” I was a stranger in the city and I was taken completely by surprise at the outburst that suddenly filled the air. My companion and I stop- ped. listened and were held spellbound for what we heard were a number of young voices carrolling lustily. We were interested at once for the voices were unmistakably that of several fair ones. We knew that we were at the High School building and my companion, entertaining a desire to enter the spacious halls, easily persuaded me to follow him to the mu- sic room. Say. did you ever hear that Semi-chorus sing, gentle reader? Nuf sed. We thought we could enter the room probably unobserv- ed. but as we were preparing to sit down in a remote corner of the room we were greeted with a welcome smile from the conductor. Then, of course, we were the object of about thirty I airs of curious eyes. The singing was continued and my friend and I were greatly impressed by the manner in which the chorus was conducted. The young ladies were obedient to very word or loos of the conductor. “But could you blame them? Can you get about tnat contagious smile and tha' pleasant face?” Suddenly a hand was laid upon my shoulder and turning about I was introduced to a member of the High School Glee Club. He was a very entertaining lad and was soon telling me the history and all the doings of the Semi-Chorus, saying, they were one of the principal features in all high school func- tions, furnishing musical numbers for special day programs, Commencement programs, and oratorical contests. He also spoke of the royal way in which they entertained the High school faculty and Glee Club in honor of Miss Brittian. He then introduced us to Miss Price, the conductor, Ethel Stuart, pianoist, and the following members of the Semi-Chorus:— Blanche Cryder, pres., Esther Headley, music collector, Georgena Sellar, Faye Taflinger, Kathleen Logan, Anna Wrigt. Harriet Fisher, Charlotta Kile. Margaret Colwayy, Lucile O’Hair, Mildred Hamilton. Genevieve Huston. Callie Hunter. Gurneth Guthridge. Fern Goble. Marguerite Hinds, Garnet Chapman. Mary Laughlin. Marie Frey. Nellie Ewing. Glenna Henderson. Blanche Link, June Waggoner. Mildred Pearman, Mable Gaumer, Esther Clubb. Ora Witt, Ethel Cline, Mary Green. One of the most important events in the music depart- ment of P. H. S. for the season of lDlO-’ll, was the May festi- val given at the Methodist church. May 6. 1911. The follow- ing was the program:— PAR f ONE The Sea Hath Its Pearls”...................Ciro Pinsuli Chorus (a) “Berceuse” with Violin Ooligato.........

The Society was organized early in November and the following officers were chosen: President. ALLYN LOGAN. Vice President GENEVIEVE HUSTON. Recording Secretary, LUCILE O HAIR. Corresponding Secretary. MORRIS ARTHUR. Treasurer. LEO HEADLEY. Counselor. L. A. PINKNEY. Sergeant-at-Arn- . LAWRENCE HEUSTIS. Much credit is due the officers for the success of the Society and for their faithful attendance at the meetings. The real purpose of the Society has been to encourage public speaking. This has been brought about by debating, extemporaneous speaking and by relating of current events of the day. The progress made in this line of work by some of the members of the Society has been very good and many have acquired the ait of speaking before an audience. Although the student body have mainly supported the Society yet the faculty as a whole have given encouragement to the students by being rresent at the meetings. The Society has almost seventy charter members and many have joined the Society since its organization. 1'he future for the Society seems very bright and at present it seems an assured fact that the Literary Society will hold a very high rank in the Paris High School. Here’s hoping the Literary Society will progress as rapidly in the future as it has during the past term. ’•'ihe Semi-chorus assisted the Glee Club in the May Festival. —Special to Beacon. “Bess Goes to Europe” A Comedy of Haste (In three acts with a telephone prologue.)

Oh, I just know I will be so frightened.” or “I won’t. I never felt so cool in my life—Say don't you think I'm a little too black un- der the eyes?” The rest of us were ..odging the stage mana- ger and taking a last long look into our little brown booxs and trying to look as though we were used to that sort of thing. Then all too soon the overture stopped, the footlights snapped on, the curtain trembled and rose, and the play had started! Babe Woodward steps to her 'phone and calls up Miss Tapping to find out the wonderful news. Yes, it was true, she was going Wednesday morning and the dressmaker, her anxious mother, her solicitous father and the Bunch” were going to see that she got to the train on time. The breakfast bell, reinforced by the stentorian voice of Mr. Tap ping, brings the conversation to a close. In Act I, we see the Tapping sitting-room reduced to such a state of disorder as only a dressmaker or a cyclone can pro- duce. In this case it is Madame Clayton Griggs, the dress- maker, who is trying on another dress. In the midst of this scene, in walks Mr. Tapping with bundles and railway sched- ules sticking from every pocket. Of course he has made a mis- take about the creotone. Then the trunk comes which is the wrong kind. Then Marne arrives with a box she found on the steps, and later Babe Woodward appears and all the new clothes are admired. In the midst of all this flurry comes a telegram. Miss Elizabeth Agnes Tapping, Rafton, Ohio, U. S. A. Big boats do not wait for little girls. Howard Tapping, 36 Dover Road. Wanstead Park. London. England.” Then to cap the climax the baby gets lost. Mr. Tapping enters breathless. He has hunted all over town and can not find Master Edward Tap- ping. Jr. Mrs. Tapping’s nerves give way. and the act closes with a policeman bringing back the baby, and Mr. Tapping “The most important feature was the appearing of the '12 banner in Act III.' declaring that “The next time Bess goes to Europe, she’ll stay at home.” In the second act Bess is dining at the home of Babe Woodward. Gradually the Bunch gathers and each one brings a present for the departing maiden. Frank presents steamer letters. Millie’s offering proves to be a kimona. Marne surprises everybody by producing a dog—Asbestos by name; he was a perfect animal, he never barked, or got lost, and he ran as smoothly as “Skeatz on the hundred but not quite as fast. Galliger's gift is a bird, a rather overgrown canary. Dan Mitchell puts in a tnrd v appearance offering a bouquet. The act ends with a procession of the friends and gifts, with ’Bestos closing the rear file. In act III Bess and her distracted dad have actually ar- rived at the station and placed their luggage on several of the seats. Marne is the first to arrive, bearing magazines. Bala follows with fruit. The male contingent is provided by Dan and Frank, not to mention the unfortunate 'Bestos. The “stock” is watered, the missing key of Bess is discovered. C. Curl (after looking at a poker chip for five minutes) ‘ and the arrival of Galliger with his bird, and Millicent with the inevitable autograph album complete the crowd. Bess agrees to put some flowers on Dickens’ grave for Galliger, and the crowd have just finished writing in the album when Mr. Tapping bustles in, and a far oflf whistle announces the near approach of the train, Frank. Dan and Galliger collect the luggage and the “stock”; Besus gives her hat a last push; Millicent shoves the album in Miss Tapping’s hands, and amid the cries of Be sure and write.” “So long. Bess,” our friend “Peg” departs for Europe. Then, of course, we had the class song. Half of us sang and the other half were gazing at the nineteen-twelve pennant that had been let down. And ::o the curtain dropped. We took off our costumes, listened to our friends who. of course, said it was the best ever.” and went out of the dark opera house with our grips. Bess had gone to Europe and the play which we had worked and laughed over so long, was a thing of the past. —Elmore Allen, ’ll. •Why that’s a poker chip, ain’t it. No! its a wash-basin. Photo by Jay. PARIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS High Ball! Hix sez bring two an’ I’ll have one myself. 'Compare with me ye women if ye can.”—“Ittick Myers. P. H. S. Athletic Association PARIS High School is full of the spirit of progress. This fact has keen well shown in the recent organization of the Athletic Association. For some time a need for an organization of this kind has been strongly felt, because of the fact that activity in the different departments of athletics has been without definite supervision. Effort without organi- zation is not likely to produce the mast efficient results. Hence the prime object of this association is to raise the standard of athletics in the school, and to get the students to realize that the responsibility rests upon them, and that they are the most important factor in putting the school in a position of athletic honor and supremacy. This year the general sentiment among the students seem- ed to indicate that the time was ripe for the perfection of the organization. A committee was appointed to draw up a constitution and by-laws. A general meeting was held at which the constitution was adopted and the first officers were elected. A large charter membership seemed to indicate that the organization war looked upon with favor by the students, ihus the Athletic Association started cn its first year of ex- istence under the most auspicious circumstances. One of the mo: t important changes that has been brought about by the association is in regard to the wearing of the school insignia. Heretofore the promiscuous wearing of the letter P” has been a condition which to say the least was de- plorable. It not only cheapened the value of the initial but also made it difficult to tell who had really earned the privi- lege of wearing it. Under the provision of the association an official letter has been adopted, which is awarded to those who have made a certain recor d in some department of athlet- ics. The standard is put high enough so that the person who receives the letter can wear it as a badge of honor indicating that he has done creditable work in athletics. No one else in the school is permitted to wear the coveted letter, thus making it a pr ivilege as well as an honor to be able to wear the official insignia of the school. In other respects also, the organization has greatly im- proved the condition of things, and it is believed that, in the future, under the direction of this association, athletics will reach even a higher standard in Paris High School than they have in the past. —L.

Freshman English Class) The horse is a very noble quadruped, but when he is an- gry he will not do so. He is ridden on the spinal cord by the bridle, and sadly the driver places his foots on the . :rrup and divides his lower limbs across the saddle, and drves his animal to the meadow. He has a long mouth, and his head it attached to the trunk by a long protuberance called the neck. He has four legs; two are in the front side, and two are after- wards. These are the weapons on which he runs and also de- fends himself by extending those in the rear in a parallel di- rection toward his foe. But this he does only when in a vexa- tious mood. His food is generally grasses and grains. He is also useful to take on his back a man or woman, as well as some cargo. He has power to run as fast as he coula. He has got no sleep at night time, but always standing awaken. Also there are horses of short sizes. They do the same as the oth- ers are generally doing. There is no animal like the horse. No sooner they see their guardian or master they always cry- ing for fooding. but it is always at the morning time. They have got tail, but not so long as the cow and other such-like animals. P. H.

South Africa, in 1861. While a youth he extinguished himself as a marathon walker, defeating Edward Payson Weston in the Glidden tour in 1776. At this time he held the national representation for truth and voracity. He was a champeen prize fighter, successfully playing the part of White Man's Hope. J. Johnson was defeated by him in 1862. and then allowed to go free. All friends of “Mistah Johnsing' were released from jail and allowed to view the remains. He enjoys the unique distinction of never being the hero of a mov- ing pitchur photoplay and his untimely death in 2001 B.

IMPORTANT NOTICES All students in English classes are expected to listen with one ear and to write with the other. Students in Physiology I C are requested on no account to remember the instructor’s explanation. SENIOR ALPHABET Ais for Anna, whose last name is Wright, As a tliit she ranks clear out of sight. Bis the letter with which Barkley does start, She and E. Bennett are both very smart. Charley Curl for initials uses the letter “C” twice. But for all that, the girls all say Charley's real nice. Dstands for Durnil, our great big corporal. To speak to him of A plus’ is a crime that is mortal. Ethel Cline is quite small when it comes to size But when it comes to brains, she beats all of us guys. Fry is the name of a Senior sedate. Whose greatest nope is to see Carroll at eight. C' ilbeit, cr Heine as we all know him J Is a star, who for our High would risk hand or limb. Honncld is the lad’s name who is six feet one. What is serious to us, to him is all fun. I don't know what to do with this letter. So I’ll leave it to you to make this ryme better. Jerry White is a recruit from the city of Grandview, When it comes to A plus grades he is there some too. Kindly tell me what to do with this thr e-legged letter. But if Cryder began with with K it would work a lot better. Logan is Tubby's name, just as Bill Is her cousin's. With an ex-grad her place you can’t AIL Morton or Jim as his nickname goes. Is a sport out of sight when it comes down to clo’es. Nugent is a new student this year, from Brockton,Ill- inois. And for his success in our High we’ll sure make a noise. O’Hair is a Senior also and we’re proud To have a good looking fellow like Frank in the crowd. Places are filled by 0. Schaefer and Sellar. But W. I . ShoafT is very much sweller. Ouiet and ordeiiy is the class as a whole But when we drink to Faculty, we do so with heart and soul Rahel is a fellow who has the stature of his name. But for him we’ve a friendship sincere, just the same. keeter the Great, is our basket ball star. For he is St. John who is known near and far. The editor-in-chief of our annual is Dick Leitch. T don’t work with him, but he is a peach. Usee we haven’t names for all letters in our class But Maxwell and Hamilton belong to the mass. Veiy few are left now on the roll except Headley and Hildreth who are not so droll. W stands for Wade. Waggoner and Williams, also. These are three students whom we all know. Xtra are Fauble. Black. Hinds. Mopps and Bell If you know any better, their names you must tell. Yis for Yowell who makes old Y lonesome. She’s from Dudley and besides, she’s handsome. Zwe will use for Canine. Hickey and Drake. And with Huston and Galleencr end the rhymes I shall make. Those who think our jokes are poor. Would straightway change their views.
