We do not pretend that it is perfect but we have done our best. We hope that our readers will enjoy the good points and deal gently with its failings. We believe that this annual gives a good record of the school year, and we trust that in the future it will furnish much enjoyment to its readers and bring back fond memories of happy high school days. We wish to thank everyone who has co-operated with us in putting out this work, especially Miss Dow, our advisor; Miss Coleman, our business advisor; Mr. Bate, our photographer; Mr. Wood, our publisher, and professional and business men who have made this Ilassa- yamper possible. like H assa yamp ey- HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING Members of the Prescott Board of Education President I)R.

When finally 1 reached home, exhausted, I sank into a Reid chair. There was a long peal of the door-bell; I turned the(Mc)Kee and who should he there but the Cole-man from O’Laughlin’s. With a Savage look, he handed me a bill. “This bill has been Dow-n on the books for a month. You don’t amount to a Berry-hill if you don’t pay your bills.” he Blurt(on)-ed out. “To whom is the hill made out?” I asked in surprise. “Do not the Ericksons live here?” he asked with undisturbed certainty. “Nel-son,” I replied. “You will find the Erickson residence on the other side of that Barn-(ett) yonder; and furthermore, if you Doug less and did not Rob-in-son so much, you would have more success.” Norman Fain, our noted P. H. S. alumnus, was found lying unconscious in the lobby of the Biltmore Hotel. Los Angeles, as a result of a quarrel over whether or not a nickel was five cents. This great celebrity claimed that it was not. The Right Honorable Edwin Weil was arrested last night, when he was discovered in a state of melancholy, in the high school chemistry laboratory at Glengary, Canada, breaking test tubes, as a reminder of his happy, care- free high school days. Clair Scholey, also formerly of P. II. S. has just been expelled from Yale on account of his persistence in sliding down the banisters; many fatal acci- dents having already being attributed to others’ following his example. Word has been received of the arrest and conviction of the Doctor Ned Yount for manslaughter. While the doctor was practicing in the Hawaiian Islands he killed a patient by drugging him with a mixture of H2S and Na Br. IN SPITE OF THE POWDER PUFF Who says girls are not athletic. Even though a rare cosmetic They will put upon their features now and then, For the women all use paint, No modern girl can be a saint, This is merely propaganda caused by men, Girls can swing a wicked right, In a boxing match or fight; As for swimming, They know thoroughly each stroke; They can sure play basketball, Which some boys can’t do at all. And in golf the evasive pill can soak; Many girls can make the dash, And in tennis they’re a flash, They’re no slackers when it. comes to clear the bar; So you see boys, do not crow, And say things you do r.ot know. For with you the girls will soon be on a par. —Lillian Munro, ’25. —Ted Mitchell. Page Twelve The Hassayarmper A Farewell EAR old 1 . H. S., it grieves us very much to say goodbye to you. You are the one who is respon- sible for our four years of study and play. The pleasant memories of your familiar classrooms, the well known voices of our beloved teachers, who have struggled so patiently with us, the energetic school chums romping up and down your stairs, the impres- sive silence of your study hall, with sunshine flooding it, giving to every pupil the joy of the coming spring and sum- mer, the beloved sound of the Victrola patiently guiding the typists on to success—yes, we have been with you, P. H. S., and we love you. We hate to leave you, but pleas- ant, long-to-be-cherished memories will abide with us for- ever. We will leave you, but our places will be filled. We will not be missed, but we will miss the happy school days of our ’teens, and the beautiful companionship of our school-mates. These and many more are the familiar scenes of our school, which we hope will grow dearer in the hearts of every student, and as the years go by, we shall be more and more glad that we attended Prescott High School.

I he great reception took place in the palatial reception room of the Prescott High School. All the members of the class were present except Clair Scholey who had to stay at home to attend to the heavy burdens of his large household. It is remarkable that the Class of 24 has produced many of the most famous people of the time. The ( lass is proud of the fact that Johnnie Leo Parsons, once president of the Class, is now the first woman president of the United States. Other renowned members are Frank llee, the Chinese ambassador to the United States; Ned 't ount, the idol ol the screen, who is famous in the movie world for having been married only six times; Nettie Silver, the famous author of “The Sneak, and other classics; and Edwin Weil, the leader of tin Don’t Work political party who was the close rival of Parsons in the last election. It is very interesting to know what profession each member of the class has chosen. The ambitious Norman Fain, who was the idol of the girls in school, is a fancy rider in Dicky Darling’s Delightful Six Ring Circus, while strange to say, Fay Poe is a snake tamer in the same organization. Dora Rosenblatt has become one of the best revivalists of the time. She has done more, perhaps, than anyone else to abolish dancing, smoking, card playing and tosmetics, in Aiizona. lorn Date has made a name for himself in the movies, not as a dashing young hero, but as a second Theodore Roberts. Arthur Dumont made himself rich as a lady toe-dancer m the Follies, got married and is living happily with his family. Louise Oliver is one of Mac Sennett’s bathing beauties, while Alenc Van Dickson is the venerable matron of the Arizona Home for Blind Mice, which was founded by the great philanthro- pists, Elizabeth Ilollingshead and Learah Cooper. Although Evaline Fales perhaps did not choose such a noble career as her other classmates, she has made a success of her work. In the boxing world she is known as Knockout Nancy, and is the world-champion woman heavyweight. Alban Smith is a clothes model in E. Kay and Co.’s clothing store, and his picture may also he seen in any advertisement of Theobald's Trusty Tonic Treatment for Tough Toenails. Marion Ross and Herschel McMullen have been preaching to the heathen in Africa, and, according to their tales, they have had many narrow escapes from being cooked and eaten. Leslie Childers and Ruth Terry are Page Twenty-five ITKe Hassa yamper touring the world together, dancing. Their popularity much exceeds that of Mr. and Mrs. Valentino of former years. Robert Gonzales is a famous player on the White Gloves football team, while Theodore Martin is the renowned inventor of skidless soap, runless silk stockings, and non-disappearing face powder. Margaret Blaylock is one of the instructors in the famous Ilg-Stevens Russian Ballet Dancing Academy. Lester Ilaskell has been living a very solitary life in a little log cabin on top of Granite Mountain. It has been his practice to keep away from the ladies, and it was possible to persuade him to attend the reunion only by promising to build him a private box which none of the fair sex would be allowed to enter. Barbara Jaeger is a great orator and is talking on the important question of the day. “Why Wear Silk Stockings When Cotton Ones Are Cheaper?” Gladys Weiland is a renowned surgeon and Freda Clements, an artists’ model, while Marion McNeely is an attractive old maid with a dozen fine riding horses, a pack of hounds, and six racers. Mabel Rees, as a lawyer’s wife, is occupying her beautiful Pasadena mansion. Dorothy McGrew mar- ried a farmer and enjoys taking care of the chickens and milking the cows. Willow Johnson is the wife of a poor, but honest carpenter. Bonnie Hayes and her husband, Trengove, the Duke of Flapjacks, have been travelling in Africa for the last year or two, Clara Abbott is teaching in Prescott Farms University, and Amy Aiken is a professor of psychology. The ( lass Reunion was a great success, and after everyone had voted to hold another one in ten years, the members of the Class departed for their respective homes. “What is your occupation?” “I used to be an organist.” “And why did you give it up?” “The monkey died.” Mac: Are you a mind reader?” Bevo: “Yes—sure.” Mac: Can you read mv mind?” Bevo: “Yah.” Mac: “Well, why don’t you go then?” First Person: “1 hear your old man died of hard drink.” Second Person: “Yes, a cake of ice fell on his head.” Mr. Berryhill: “How can you distinguish a member of the Methlane series?” Herschel: “I haven’t read that yet.” Mr. Berryhill: The rest of the class went over that a month ago.” Chorus: “I didn’t—I don’t remember.

Page Thirty-five The Hassayamper The Home Economics Department irm Ji IIE Home Economics Department of Prescott High School is be- coming more popular with each year. There are about thirty-nine students in the sewing classes, six- teen of whom are studying advanced sewing. 1 nder Miss South’s supervision the advanced sewing students were offered a millinery course this year. Interest in sewing seems to mani- fest itself mostly in the Freshman class. However, there are a number of upper classmen designing and making their own clothes. Every year this department gives an exhibit or style show, each girl having on display some article which she has made. 1 here are seven students in the cooking class, under Miss Mclnnes’s charge. 1 he girls, besides their regular class work, have given several luncheons, the most important of these being in honor of the Board of Trustees. Their sur- viving this feast is a sure sign that the girls are good cooks. arious trips have been made in which such topics as cuts of meat, dif- ferent types of cookers and other kitchen supplies were studied. Such trips help to make the work both interesting and instructive. Though the cooks are few in number this year, we are looking for a much larger enrollment in the future. —Willow Johnson, ’24. The Commercial Department OW tremblingly we first entered those sacred realms! How awe- inspired we stood before our places! But, how soon we forgot our first impressions, for was not Miss Douglas there to guide our unsteady fingers? If, one by chance entei's the Commercial Rooms in the after- noon, he will exclaim with pleasure, for the sun streams in at will, filling the rooms with its light, while busy fingers dance merrily over the keys, perhaps to the time of some snappy march. Shorthand, bookkeeping, stenotype, and the xxse of the mimeograph, as well as typing, are open to the student of P. II. S. and adults, outside of school, are not slow to take advantage of this excellent opportunity. Eighteen type- writers, a calculating machine, an electric bookkeeping machine, an adding machine, two mimeographs, two stenotypes, besides our splendid filing eabi- xiet, make up the equipment. We even have a tiny bank in one corner, where our ambitious bookkeepers keep their accounts. Once a month a Remington test is given, and practically every student has received a certificate for writing twenty-five words, with less than five mistakes; and their card-cases, for writing forty-five per minute, with less than five mistakes. The following have received gold medals, having made fifty-five words per minute, with less than five mistakes: Helen Yeomans, Nettie Silver, Louise Oliver, and Ruth Terry. —Nettie Silver, ’24. Page Thirty-seven ie nassayan per The Manual Training Department HE Manual Training department is becoming one of the most im- portant courses in the entire school, for it affords an exceptional opportunity for students to learn the fundamentals of cabinet making and bench work. A large part of one building is devoted to this subject and has about the most complete equipment of any school of its size in this state. Many electric driven machines make up this equipment, some of which are: A large planer, band saw, drill press, cir- cular saw, emery grinder, and two lathes. Each student is given a bench equipped with two vises and all tools needed in the ordinary bench work. There are about twenty-five of these benches so that many persons may take the course. At the beginning of the first year the students start out making the more simple things but after a two years’ course, some very fine and difficult work is turned out, both in the bench work and on the lathes. At the end of each school term an exhibit is given when all of the work made is opened for inspection, giving the public a chance to see what has been done. Besides the regular Manual Training work there is a course given in M echanical Drawing in which students are taught the fundamentals of the subject. This requires much thought and therefore develops the mind, if it serves no other purpose. It is also especially important for any pupils in- terested in building work of any kind. Our school is most fortunate in having at its service two competent instructors, Mr. Barnett and Mr. McKee. —Fritz Ilg, ’24. 5 L'K The Hassayamper Qtfjlettcs Rocks, rivers, and smooth lakes More clear than glass.

The season was a successful one regardless of the loss of our old forwards. Their places seemed impossible to fill at first, but after hours of faithful practice and untiring coach- ing from Miss Nelson, a pair of forwards were developed that would rival our Stars of ’23. To Fay Poe and Lucille Dumont, we owe our thanks for this service. These forwards, with Elizabeth Dumont and Tillie Blumberg as centers, and Marion McNeeley and Captain Dora Rosenblatt as guards, com- posed a team that was hard to beat. And let us not forget the subs, Celia Monreal, Pearl Davis and Elizabeth Pizzoli, who showed up regularly at practice and made possible the developing of the Main Team.

The contest consisted of three games. The winners of the first two were matched for the third. The first game was between the Freshmen and the Sopho- mores, the game being an uneven one all the way through, though the Sophomores put up a good fight for victory. The Freshmen won by a score of 38 to 18. The second game was between the Juniors and Seniors. This was another contest, the Seniors havinlg the best of it all the way through, but of course they had a very decided advantage in having four of the first team men to battle for the Black and Orange. The Seniors won by the uneven score of 56 to 6. The third and deciding game was between the Seniors and Freshmen and proved to be vne of the closest class games that has been played in P. H. S. for several years. The Seniors had the advantage in weight but the Fresh- men made up for this handicap in their wonderful speed. At the end of the fourth quarter the score was a tie, 19 to 19. Five min- utes’ additional play was given and after hard playing the Seniors scored twice, and the Freshmen once. At the end of the game the score stood 23 to 21 in favor of the Seniors. Page Forty-five Senior Sextet Becomes Sole Heir to School Cup IIE girls’ inter-class games of this year proved to be very exciting and quite successful for the Seniors. For three years this class has gone forth with a determination to win and for the third and last year they easily defeated their sister classes. As Sophomores they fought with only such zeal as class spirit can promote, and surprised the upper classes by walking off with the cup. The task did not seem so impossible to them as Juniors, but the games were by no means a ‘‘walk away” for on the other hand, the high school gym- nasium was transformed into a scene reminiscent of an ancient Roman arena, and their class mates again cheered the sextet on to victory. As the champions went forth the last year feeling rather sure of themselves, they met,a team of Freshies that made them sit up and take notice. A few more games were played and the cup was won by the Seniors. As custom demands, the names of the members of the winning team were engraved on the cup. These include: Captain Dora Rosenblatt, Marian Mc- Xeeley, Fay Poe, Gladys Wingfield, Elizabeth Hollingshead, Josephine Lewis and Elizabeth Kay.

He had a little trading- post near the Zuni Indian reservation. Here he lived and traded with the Indians and was apparently content with a life of isola- tion. I often wondered how any man could be happy to leave everybody and everything and spend dreary years in that lonely spot, for it was forty-eight miles to the nearest city, Gallup. Rumor had it that before liquor got such a strong hold on him, “Doc” had been a famous physician in the East, but when I knew him, he was an old man with white hair and a long white beard, not very careful about his per- sonal appearance. He had at least five dogs and cats, who ate and slept with him, and a small flock of chickens, which brought him in some revenue, for he sold their eggs. He took great care of these, and in every nest he had an egg, not a real one, but an imitation affair which had an odor something like moth balls. These were supposed to keep the lice from the chickens. The Indians were pretty sly and they knew they could easily fool “Doc” so they used to steal his eggs and then go and sell them to him.’ But one day by mistake they brought in some of those moth-ball eggs and then their plans were all spoiled. Doc had the kindest of hearts and as we were the only white children on the reservation, he thought a good deal of us. My mother always hated to send us to his store, for he always loaded us down with candy and would not let us pay for it. When we left, he almost cried and bidding good-bye to my sister he said. “Oh. you’re beautiful, my child, you’re beautiful.” 1 often wonder if my old friend is still in Zuni or whether he has now gone to his last reward.

The nassayarnpen k •4 ( w k 1 DEBATE il HE candidates for the debating team went to work early in the year. The preliminaries were held in January and the question debated was. Resolved: “That the United States should retain permanent possession of the Philippine Islands.” Arthur Davis and Dan Sherman were chosen for the first team. Elizabeth IIol- lingshead and Lawrence Metcalf for the second. The first debate of the season was between Clarkdale and Prescott and was held at Prescott, Clarkdale taking the negative, while Prescott upheld the affirmative side of the question. The question for debate was Resolved: “That the candidates for president of each political party should be nomi- nated by a nation wide direct primary.” Prescott won by a majority of two to one. The second debate was with Winslow, and it also was held at Prescott. This time Prescott upheld the negative and again won, but this time unani- mously. The debate with Chandler was also won, as was the one with Tucson, which gave Prescott the State Championship. Page Fifty The Hassayamper LOifMN’s cue ■■.

The Badger gives each pupil of Prescott High School, who has a literary talent, an opportunity to write short stories, poems and essays and have them published. This year we have had prizes for tlie best short story, poem and Badger heading; these being won by Learah Cooper, Ruth Terry, and Frances Hicks, respectively. The editorials of our paper play an important part, while the joke section is eagerly sought by all. The Senior classes have put into our paper their best efforts, and will pass it on to the class of ’25, who, we hope, will continue it. Much credit is due Miss Dow, our supervisor, whose ready willingness to correct and smooth mistakes has helped our “Badger” to be a success. The Badger has been printed this year by the Journal-Miner.

Get Your Lessons First I am just about to describe a boy who sits within my range of view—I said describe, but I mean I will describe his actions. At this minute he is leaning way over his desk with one foot thrust far back. A foot is kept constantly moving, using its toe as a pivot. He is draw- ing something. Ilis tongue is stretched out of the corner of his mouth and' he chews on it often. (Right now he is chewing on his turned up collar.) Suddenly he gazes into the atmosphere, and his chin is thrust out like a poet’s as he looks for an inspiration. He begins to draw again. He works furiously. In a few minutes he turns around and holds up the paper he has been working on, and with a look of mingled satisfaction and triumph he shows me a cartoon. T accordingly laugh at it. He grins back and turns around, almost embarassed by my compliment. Suddenly he looks up at the clock, throws open his history and begins to study. But it is in vain because the bell rii|gs just then, and he closes his book and walks into the history room. Here it is best to draw the curtain. —Bertha Rosenblatt.

The members are active and try to accomplish worth while things. Among the events of this year have been a welcome for the new members, which at once made them feel the friendly and happy companionship of the Mile Ili girls, and a little play at Christmas time. Also at the holiday season the girls fixed up useful and attractive boxes and sent them to the Indian reservation at Yuma. Although the girls are willing workers, they do not slight good times. They have picnics, parties and dinners. On the 25th of March a Father and Daughter banquet was given and every girl joined in to make it a success.

JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET “Cut Vourself a Piece of Cake.” On the evening of May 25, the Juniors gave the departing Seniors a ban- quet at the “Owl.” The banquet room was decorated with greens, and with pink flowers of various shades. An excellent menu was served, and after the short program, dancing was enjoyed for about an hour. 1923—June 7. JUNIOR PROM. “That Old Gang of Mine.” As a last farewell to the Senior Class of ’23, the Juniors entertained with the formal dance of the semester on June 7. The gym was decorated with shades of purple and gold streamers. During the evening enjoyable refresh- ments were served. Everyone had a good time, and departed, saying thaf “the Juniors certainly know how to entertain.” 1923—Sept. 14. SENIOR DANCE ‘Lullaby.” The Seniors, feeling it necessary that the , ...igsters of the school be properly introduced into society, gave an interesting party on Sept. 14. The Freshmen were initiated in a very becoming manner, and didn’t seem at all out of place, for the gym was transformed into toyland. 1923—Oct 19 HARD TIME PARTY “Turkey in the Straw.” On October 19, the Sophomores gave their first dance of the year. Unlike the preceding dances, this one was a “hard time party.” Strips of newspaper furnished the decorations, several prizes were won. and a good time was “had by all.” 1923—Oct. 27 MASQUERADE “A Lot of Applesauce” A Hallowe’en Masquerade was the feature on October 27. The Freshman class deserves much credit, because it was the most successful masquerade that has been given for a long time. Those who won prizes were Barton Cort- right, Alene Dickson, Charles Shaw, and Lorena Tucker. 1923—Nov 11 JUNIOR DaNCE A very pretty patriotic dance was given by the Juniors on Armistice night. The miniature army camp which adorned the stage was the chief feature of the decorations. 1923— Dec. 21 SENIOR HOP “Merry Christmas” This was the first formal dance of the school year, and from all accounts was a great success. The gym was adorned in the usual Xmas decorations, with a brilliantly lighted tree on the stage—whi'e every one seemed to feel the “Xmas Spirit.” The “Rag Time Kids” furnished excellent music 1924— Feb. 16 SOPHOMORE DANCE ' ‘ Goodnight!!!—Ladies ’ ’ A Leap Year party was given by the Frosh after the Winslow-Prescott basketball game.

He swung quickly up the oak hill, crossed the flattened foot-log which bridged Pine Creek and in no time was at the Pine Creek sehoolhouse. lie walked boldly into the class room and sat down at his desk. He was early, and it had been his habit to sit on the porch and talk to pretty little Pearl Wyne, but this morning he didn’t. He was thinking instead and his thoughts ran something like this: “For the luv-a’-Mike, look at Curley Jones, lie’s got the best roof, just gobs, of curly hair, and Pearl told him so, too, and mine looks as if the moths have been in it. ’Taint fair.” Then Jim glanced at the tall stern looking school- master, who was arranging his books on his desk preparing for the day’s work. He was bald-headed, and how ugly it did make him look. Jim sat gazing at him—“Gee. wliat a terrible thing to grow up and he that way.” From this moment, Jim, who was nearing fourteen, feared baldness. That day at the noon'hour he took his lunch and sat apart from the noisy group of boys. In the evening, to avoid walking home with Pearl, he took a short cut way. deserting the trail, crossing Pine Creek on the rocks, and going by Zeo Cook’s little shack. As he passed the old trapper’s camp he saw the latter bent over the stove boiling something in a large vessel, which was sending forth a terrible odor. The old man seemed so deeply absorbed that he didn’t see nor hear Jim as lie walked past his door, up the steep slope, and down to his home. That night at the evening meal Jim Jackson’s older brother, Thomas, noticed his brother’s sullen manner, and remembering that he had not walked home with Pearl Wayne, as he had done since the Waynes had made their home in Pine Valley, lie suspected a childish quarrel and began teasing him by asking him if Curley Jones was his antagonist now. He was surprised to see Jim immediately rise and leave the table, his meal remaining unfinished. The next morning Jim combed his scant supply of hair with a great amount of water, making a “wet lick” on each side. This morning Pine Creek was frozen over and a-s he climbed the oak slope, his breath made clouds of smoke in the cold morning air. Unconsciously he put his hand to his forehead and up through his thin hair but—lo! the “wet licks” on the sides were frozen like ice—yes, they were frozen! Jim sensed a thrill of pleasure as he realized that his hair would stay in place for a while now. His spirits were much higher this morning; in fact be never thought of his thin, ugly hair until he was earnestly studying his arithmetic, when he felt a cold drop of water run down across his forehead, over his nose and down his neck. Another and another followed, down his neck and into his ears, lie knew now—yes, and Pearl, across the aisle, was watching the drops of water run down his neck, with a suspicion of half amusement, half scorn on her face—yes, his “wet licks” were thawing out. Time dragged slowly on and finally recess time swung around. Poor miserable_Jim grabbed his cap and ran towards Pine Creek, anywhere to be away from Pt-arl who had laughed at his hair—yes. laughed at his hair. ine Creek and came to the old trapper Zeb’s camp. Jim TfiCHmughTs ftnrt-JuLcame unconsciously to the old man’s Page Seventy-six The Hassayamper door before lie knew it. He stopped with a start and looked in. Zeb was pouring a hot blaek liquid into a number of bottles, but seeing Jim, he im- mediately put the kettle down on the old blaek stove with a kind of sheepish look on his old grizzled features. “Wal, Jim,” he drawled, ‘‘Yon hev caught me now, I reckon.” ‘‘Course you will wanna’ know what this conglomeration I’m makin’ is, huh? Well, I’m a great discoverer. I have found that grease and this stuff called salad dressing will grow hair on the baldest of bald headed men.” Jim’s eyes opened in wonder. ‘‘What did you say. Zeb?” he asked. “Wall, I’se sayin’ that this new invention I made, although it has a sorter bad smell, will grow hair on a fish. Why,” he exclaimed. “I accidentally spilt a gallon of it in a deep hole in Pine Creek yesterday and the trout ail at once grew pompadours, side whiskers and full beards.” The old man stopped to get his breath. “What? Jim was interested. “Why—er—Zeb. How are vou selling this stuff?” 1 he old trapper smiled and said proudly: “Wal, son, if yon want a bottle of this stuff for that head of yours which looks like a discarded tooth brush, I’ll just give you one.” I hat evening Jim’s head i, iel ed of burned grease and salad dressing, and for a good many evenings following, but his shaggy hair remained the same. One day as he was walking over the oak hill, he turned to see Pearl coming. This time he waited for her and together they walked slowly on. Finally Pearl spoke. “Jim,” she said shyly, “what have you on your head?” “Grease and salad dressing,” he answered sharply. “What? Jim Jackson, are you crazy? Don’t you know such horrible things will cause your hair to come out?” “No,” corrected Jim, “it makes hair grow, and 1 don’t want to be bald headed. This brought a laugh from Pearl and they were soon talking as old friends, while Pearl, to Jim’s joy, said SIIE thought men with bald heads had a dis- tinguished look. That evening Jim went againt to the trapper’s home, and found him sitting in the door of his cabin with his dog. “Well, Zeb,” said Jim, sitting down beside his old friend. “I have tried two bottles of your hair tonic, and my hair is as thin as ever. You know yon said it would grow hair on a fish?” “Didn’t it on you?” asked Zeb. “Not one,” Jim answered, smiling. Zeb Cook burst into laughter and laughed till his sides would burst, it seemed, and then as if it really did pain him, he stopped suddenly and said— “Wal, son, you orter be satisfied. It proved you’re no fish.” And again he burst into a fit of laughter. —Gladys Wingfield, ’24. Page Seventy-seven PRIZE POEM Elizabeth Holling’shead, Senior. THE FOREST AT DAWN Twas dawn in the forest ; the birds awoke. And, 0! what a change from the woods at night, So solemn is it when the moon is waning, Again it is mystic with shadows dark When the moon in its fullness sheds its beams Through skeleton branches, with fairy light. Hut then the gray sky was beginning to glow, And ever with changing and brightening hue It heralds the coming of old King Sol With fiery red chariot and dashing steeds. Diana, on such a morning, would love To roam all among the fresh, sparkling green trees To lead in the choral dances her nymphs. The trees seemed to waken and stretch themselves— They still were so tired, having tossed all night In trouble and unfreshed by sleep; The new-risen birds were beginning to pick Among the green grass for their morning meal Of bugs and of worms, for to them were good. The plants, from the tiniest of little flowers To Rose, with her wildness and thorns so sharp Who showers her petals in breezes soft. Were astir in their beds and unfolding wide. Each blade was a-sparkle with crystal dew And sunbeams so frail, which the leaves drank in With a greed only rivalled by mid-day sun. And now. don’t you think Mother Nature dear Was pleased in her heart with a day started thus? OUR HASSAYAMPER BLESSING O YOU, inhabitants of the city of Prescott, realize the great boon that the gods have bestowed on our fair section of this rich coun- try? Do you know that there flows, close by. a stream which has powers proved greater than any of the ancient world? In fact, those who drink from this fair Hassayamper are blessed with faculties which would put the story of Achilles and the river Styx to shame. If you drink from these magic waters when lying at right angles to the stream you will ever be a willing prisoner, held under the spell of old Arizona from which this spring pours fourth. If, on the other hand, you drink looking upward along the stream, you will be blessed with a wonderful tongue, which will never speak the truth. Nothing is too great for your imagination and you are ever blessed with a clear conscience. Nor have you even an unpro- tected heel, as Achilles had, but you become a qualified Ananias from head to toe. If you don’t believe this story, which is the truth of the most truthful, ask our trustworthy Faculty about it, for they are endowed with great learning and are heavy drinkers of this magic water. —Norman Fain, ’24. Page Seventy-eight ssayamper The Ha THE CROOKED COLUMBUS TALE G—| HRISTOPIIER COLUMBUS was born in Egypt and when but a small child was put into a basket of rushes and left to float on tlie river of the Nile. Two old peasants living in a mud hut on the ______| shores of the Nile found him and adopted him. Christopher was ---- brought up with the best of care, and was an exceedingly good child. When he was five years old he received a little blue hatchet, much to his delight, but was told never to cut anything of value with it. Now out in the back yard grew a cocoanut tree just ready to bloom and this tree was just the thing that caught the boy’s eye the first thing. The tree was felled quickly. Just as it toppled to the ground his father came around the corner of the house and asked in an angry tone, “Did you cut down that cocoa- nut tree?” “Yes, father, said Christopher, “I can't have you doubting my veracity. 1 cut down that tree.” And proudly the father praised him for the truth. From that day on Christopher was known as a very truthful boy. One day the parents of Christopher grew tired of living in Egypt, so they hitched the two old camels to the covered wagon and went to find the wilder- ness, an,1 then lo and behold they entered the most beautiful forest of pine trees filled with deer, wolves, lions and many fowls. “Oh. boy! said Mr. Columbus, “Here’s just the place for us to park.” And they all got out and began to build a log cabin. It was a beautiful cabin and was finished in two days. Even the fire-place was made and the radio aerial put up. The Columbus family were contented here; true, the Indians did bother them a little, but one day Mr. Columbus and Christopher sicked the two camels on them and they never appeared again. Christopher had no chance to go to school so his brave mother taught him all she knew, lie learned to read from the Bible and from “The Pilgrims’ Progress” and he dearly loved “Aesop’s Fables.” One day Mr. Columbus said to his wife, “It’s time for Christopher to make himself famous. He should try to discover America, and, incidentally, prove that the world is round.” “Yes,” said Mrs. Columbus, “I quite agree with you; let’s send him to Spain.” Christopher was very willing to try his luck in a foreign country, so catching his one-eyed mule he set off for Spain and got there in three weeks. Now Columbus was very poor, and, although he was a very willing boy and eager to work, he failed to find a job. lie sold his mule for a couple of German marks but those only fed him for two days. So when his last cent was gone, despair gripped him and he set out for home, a beaten boy. But on the way he sat down on a rock to rest and while resting he heard the bells ringing. “Turn back. Columbus, turn back.” And lit jumped up with a reso- lution to make good. And he did make good, for lie was hired as a scullery boy in a rich man’s house and there lie earned enough to buy himself a cat. This merchant one day asked each one of his servants to send something on one of his ships which was going to a foreign land. Columbus, though loath to part with his pet cat, sent him. Three years passed and still nothing was heard from the ship and Columbus had not earned enough to discover America. But one day the lost ship sailed into port and it was loaded with riches. The mer- chant rushed into the Page Seventy-nine “Look man, see the billions of pesos your eat brought you.” And, sure enough, there was a barrel full of gold. Columbus shouted for joy and then immediately ran to the King and Queen of Spain, who gave him permission to buy ten aeroplanes, take two hundred soldiers and start out to find America. They sailed for two months and then when flying over what looked to be a great island, they saw a great feast going on down beneath them. “Here’s a sweet place to land,” said Columbus, “I’m hungry.” So they all landed in a little clearing near by and went up to be asked to dinner. Columbus was very much surprised to see the Pilgrims all having their Thanksgiving dinner at this time of the year and very much chagrined to find that some one else had beaten him to America. After being intro- duced they all sat down to the feast and enjoyed themselves. Columbus went to New York a couple of days afterward, met Pocohontas as an actress, and married her. They discovered and founded Columbus City, and lived happily ever after. Away, away, sings the wild, wild wind And it tugs at my heart with its song; Away, and away, to the ends of the earth— I have hearkened that cry for long. There’s a tang of salt in the cool sea breeze And the waves leap high in glee; They call me away—away—away— And they sing to the heart of me. Away to the tops of the mountain peaks, High up in the cloud-wreathed sky; With the valley sleeping in calm below— A dreamer of dreams am I. Away to the lands of the mystic East And back to the West again; And I follow the trail of the dust-brown road Far, far from the haunts of men. Ah, to wake in the morn ’neath a tree’s green bough, And to lie on the dew-drenclied lawn— But the wild winds sing to the heart of me— They are calling me on and on. My heart flames up in a burning joy That mere words would in vain express It was born in the sunset’s blood-red glow— In the heart of the wilderness. And here, as I sit with my dreams alone The sky is no longer red; And a dull, dim gray in the West appears, ’Tis the ashes of dreams long dead. —Edith Yeomans, Junior, ’25.

The Ha s s a uqro. p e r ON EATING GRAPEFRUIT T OCCURRED to me this morning while taking my daily exercise of dodging juice, that it might be well to make known to the general public the character of the grapefruit. Now, a grapefruit is not dangerous in appearance and as you look at it, the thought would not enter your mind that you would ic m danger it you tried to cat one. However, before you begin to consume a grapefruit, be sure to provide adequate protection for vourself Procure something to cover your clothing, for a grapefruit will attempt to drown you in juice. Also put on a pair of goggles or your eyes will be completely ruined. I erhaps you were told when you purchased the fruit, “The grapefruit we sell are s; sweet you can squeeze the juice into your coffee and will not need any sugar. Do not believe that statement. Always sweeten a grapefruit or with every spoonful you will experience a sensation such as would be produced by taking a spoonful of vinegar. Should the grocer attempt to withhold the name of this dangerous variety of fruit and call it ‘ citrus fruit,’’ be not deceived, for, as A1 Jolson savs “A grapefruit by any other name will squirt you in the eye just the same.’’' —Robert Martin, ’25. The Drums of Zanzibar Oh drums of Zanzibar, Thy ever echoing rumble rolls Thru swamp lands’ savage glades. 1 hear thee on the upland knolls Bidding men unsheathe their blades. Thru trackless forest wastes I hy echoes call to arms the Komar, A hispering in each throbbing beat, AN rongs to the Gods and past defeat— Wrongs unavenged by Komar. Now thy beats are faster Crying to the God of Vengeance—haste Throbbing—weird-impassioned; Thy voice swells aloft But dead are Komar’s wastes. No answer is forthcoming; The victor shout is still, For lies the mightiest of Komar Buried under yonder hill And the drum beats are but fancy. —Larry Metcalf, ’25.
