A few days after registration our pride was badly shaken when saw a nursing bottle suspended in the front of the Assembly, decorated daintly with our class colors. Our President, Albert Mosher, was given the honor of accepting the gift. One bright day in that October, cheese and tar were mysteriously placed on the radiators, and as a result we spent a delightful day in the hills. No other thrilling event marked our first year in High School. In September, 1916, as Sophomores we began work in the new building, James Measures, Edward Smyth, Carrie Spencer, Lottie Spencer and Mildred Peterson were missing from the Sophomore roll call as well as Muriel Mitchell, who entered under the yoke of matrimony, and Raphael Gunning, a prominent member of our class, left us at the beginning of the Sophomore year to continue school in Portland, Oregon. Our Sophomre year passed very uneventful and dull, the glamor of High School, by this time- having worn off. To our class that year four members were added- Pearl Williams, Katherine Gibbs, Theodore Franks, and Dorothy Evans, who we are sorry to say only stayed with us that one year. As Juniors in September, 1917, we came back to school with fourteen members. Holger Lamberson- and Mary Magner failed to enter when school started. At the middle of the year we were greatly disappointed to lose Joseph O’Melia, Cecil Healy, Marie Nieman, and Albert Mosher. Cecil and Joseph, because of their working ambitions could not continue that year's school with us. Albert Mosher became one of the five Wyoming boys at Culver and Marie decided to leave us and graduate with the class of 19188 Rlora Kreuger, a popular member, left with our well-loved principal, Miss Flora Kreuger for Wheatland, Wyoming where she will graduate. Only one member was added to our numbers that year, this was Fred Robison. Very few in number, but with lots of “pep” we enter on the “home run” in September. We were seven. Waid Wilkes, who deserves honorable mention, was in the navy at the beginning of the school year. After serving in the navy for seven months he returned to finish with his class in January, 1919. Out of the twenty-one who entered there are now the following, Edrie Perrett, Waid Wilkes. Charlotte Cook, Fred Robison, Forrest Healy, Philip Zingsheim and Mary Buckley. These seven intend to finish together. We hate to leave Rawlins High School, but we hope that we will ever live in its memory as the Alma Mater will for ever remain in ours. —Mary Buckley, 19. ntplipry nf tiff (Hlasa of 1919 (Written in 1929.) Six months ago, having just returned from two years in Europe, I had the good fortune to meet all but two of my former class-mates. I was traveling across the country as fast as trains would take me, being anxious to breathe Wyoming air again. At Omaha I had to change cars. Getting on my car I was just settling myself when a man across the aisle spoke to me, “I beg you pardon, but you certainly remind me of one of my school mates.” Looking up I recognized none other than Waid Wilkes. From there on we had a very pleasant trip talking over our school days in R. H. S. Waid was returning to his home in Los Angeles, California, from a business tr'p to Chicago. He said that his wife’s sister had been sick so that his wife had been unable to accompanv him on his trip east. “I dQn’t suppose I know your wife?” I asked. He looked at me in surprise. “Why you got one of the wedding announcements, surely Mary sent you one. We were married three years after we graduated.” Well, this was a surprise, Mary Buckley and Waid Wilkes. Married! At Fort Steele, I left Waid after promising to avail myself of the first opportunity to visit him and his wife at their home in Los Angeles. Fort Steele is now a city large enough to boast of street cars. It’s growth was due to the finding of oil just outside that city. As I was walking slowly from the depot through the business district I glanced across the street and saw “Fred Robison, Undertaker.” I could not help associating this name of another of my class mates. While I was wondering if this could be possible an ambulance drew up to the door. Fred Robison himself got out and took from the back of the ambulance a huge basket of flowers which he carried into the building. I was about to cross the street when Fred came out and got into the ambulance and drove off. I then went on to the hotel. The next morning I awoke with a dreadful tooth-ache. I decided to go at once to a dentist and have the troublesome ivory removed. So the first thing I did after eating my breakfast was to look up the leading dentist of the city. When I had been waiting for nearly a half hour a very formal and business like woman came out and asked what she could do for me. I asked if the doctor was busy. She informed me that she was the doctor and that I must state my trouble as many of her patients were waiting her attention. Something about her seemed very familiar but her abrupt manner kept me from voicing my thoughts. After the aching tooth had been extracted. I found courage to ask her if she had ever attended Rawlins High School. She said that she had and that she had graduated from that school in 1919. I knew at once that it was Forrest Healy. After making my identity known to her we talked for sometime. She told me that Philip had taken up his long desired occupation, of cartoonist for the Denver Post. Looking up at the clock I saw that I only had a few minutes to catch my train as I was going to Rawlins. In Rawlins I learned that Edrie Perrett was launched in politics, as she was running for mayor on the Socialist ticket. She was the first woman candidate. She had hoped to be the first woman to serve Rawlins as mayor. Thus Fortune seemed to have dealt fairly to the class of '19 and time had brought about many favorable changes in the lives of my class mates. —Charlotte Cook T9. Hill flf tljr OIlaHH nf 1910 I, Edrie J. Perrett, of the Class of ’19, of the Rawlins High School, of the City of Rawlins, Carbon County.

Katheleen Fay Frances Phelan a? mar Class Flower Sweet Peas Colors Blue and White Motto Always Faithful Mascot Bull Dog ijtBtnnj of tljr (Class of 1920 With each heart beating with great expections of Graduation Day, thirty freshmen entered the R. H. S. in 1916. Backward, of course, as freshmen usually are- we all stood back and awaited Miss Krueger to assign us to our place. Much to our sorrow she separated us and we were scattered out among other high school students. During that year we were presented with a cradle but that did not decrease our courage, for we knew we would have our chance next year. Our second year was a disappointment for us all for Fred Myers, Frank Gates, Joe Quinn- Elizabeth Robinson, Helen Rooney, Anna Miller, Charlotte Stevens, and Agnes Nordlund dropped out which, of course, decreased our number a great deal. Nevertheless we again appeared- seventeen of us, freshmen no longer during this year three new members were added to our number, Glodia King, Anna Burnett and Kathleen Faye, but one member of our class Elmer Kinnaman, left to join the navy and we are indeed proud of him. During that year many memorable events occurred, especially the doings of our girls’ basket ball team. Our third year began with greater enthusiasm than ever before, for we were nearing our Senior year. During this year three members of our class have preferred keeping house to going to school; they are Ada Kuykendall, Myrtle Barker, and Emily Wester. There are now eleven of us left, Andrew Peterson- our only boy-Frances Phelan. Eva Anderson, Kathleen Faye, Macey Lackey, Hope Edwards, Marion Johnson, Frances Olson, Emily Meuller, and Grace Bart-nick, who has just come in this year. These are all who answer to roll call from that once large class of thirty and we all hope we will finish school together as the class of 1920. 1920-Atlja Honor be to all the Juniors, Cry the class of 1920 Of our class we make elections, Those who hold the highest honors Thus aloud we now acclaim them, All the individual Juniors, Each according to his merits. She who talks the most is Frances, Frances Phelan, loved class leader; In the. morning chatters Frances, In the evening murmurs Frances. And at midnight still is talking; Eve in sleep she moans and mutters. Macey Lackey is so silent That no other sound anear her Can be heard from her morn to evening Save the silence of our Macey. And so tiny Emily Mueller That in class one scarce can see her, When she stands out in the hallway And the doors are closed between us. She who labors? Ruby Carlson. Thinks and plans and toils and labors, How to work out new excuses For not having read her lessons. If one twentieth part expended Were those labors on her lessons. Ruby could achieve them easily, Rows of nineties on report cards. Marion Johnson never labors. In her mind there is a factory Out of which without her efforts Pour forth words and themes and answers. Figures, briefs and apt quotations, All correct, exact and perfect. Oh, no!—Marion never labors. Who among us knows the secret Of the glance that asks an answer, So demurely asks an answer, Through the lashes downward drooping; Of the smile that hearts can soften Smile that summons smiling answer, Promises, attracts, allures one? Glance coquettish, smile flirtation? Oh, with one accord we answer, Eva knows such smiles and glances, Knows and scruples not to use them. Who has wit that laughs in secret. Quiet, quick and inward humor, That can see odd situations Yet not make her laughter boistrous, Wit that has no painful sting in it? Such a wit has Frances Olson More than any other member Of the Class of 1920. Of the maidens most particular, Nice, exact, of fine distinction. Always first named is Hope Edwards. Fussiest, most exact and careful. Always we acclaim Hope Edwards. In our class there’s some one noisy. Though who is, we are not certain, Marion is not, neither Eva, Frances Olson’s always quiet; Hope and Ruby, Macey, Andrew, Never make a noisy movement. Emily, Grace and Frances Phelan Scarcely ever cause commotion. Who then in our class is noisy? If by strict elimination All these mentioned are discarded- There remains but one uncounted; Kathleen surely must be noisy. In each class there is one person Who devotes to peaceful slumber Parts of every daily period; In Assembly or in class room Some one always is who sleeps most. There are numbers of Juniors Mentioned for this place of honor; Final judgment names Grace Bartnick. Lest you think that all the Juniors Of the weaker sex are members, Now we hasten to inform you That the Class of 1920 Counts one boy among its number, Counts him also its most popular. Popular and honored treasurer. Andrew Peterson his name is. Thus the Class of 1920, Honor gives to all its members, Thus aloud hath now acclaimed them, All the individual Juniors, Each according to his merits. —Sincere Apologies to Longfellow. i iJftatnrij of tljr QUaoa of 1920 I spent a wretched night last night. In the evening I attended a dinner given by the Domestic Science girls—that I might state was the cause of all my troubles. Of course I do not wish to cast any insinuations on the dinner, I merely state that as that was the last time I had partaken of food all evidence points that way. It was shortly before—or after midnight when I tucked myself fondly in bed, and it was between then and morning that all my troubles began and ended. Nightmares? Well I rather guess SO. After dispelling the ghosts and other wierd figures surrounding my bed by casting a slipper into their midst I thought my troubles were ended, but peace that night was not my lot in life. A voice suddenly ordered me to be ready to go to the poor farm in five minutes. “Well, I tho’t, since when have I become so poor that I needs must adjourn to the poor farm?” but as the voice again boomed out the order I hastily dressed and looking into the mirror I was no l.ttle shocked and alarmed to find that my “golden hair was turning to silver grey.” Yes, there were most assuredly very grave signs of grey hair around my temples. Looking at the calendar I was still more amazed to find that it read —“June 30, 1940. ’ The voice was right there to explain things however, “Your case has been the most perfect example of Rip Van Winkle, that any one has heard of. You have been asleep since the night the class of ’20 graduated, and I have just been able to awaken you. I turned and saw a very learned looking man whom I took to be a Doctor. He was short and rather stout, he had a goatee upon his chin and an eyebrow upon his lip, and spectacles on his nose; but behind all this camouflage I recognized Andrew Peterson. Putting on a coat and hat I followed this person outside and climbed into an awaiting aeroplane. We soon arrived at Dixon, and as I turned the corner in one of the halls I collided violently with one of the inmates. This person spoke very scverlv and in unthinkable terms as we picked ourselves up, but when we saw each other’s face we embraced one another fondly and with a tear in our e e. “My dear Ma:ey,’’ I explained—for this was none other than Macev Lackey—“how did you get here?” “Well, it was this way: Mv great grand uncle left me a fortune you know. Well the villian beat me out of all of it. Ah—“dreamily’’—he sure was eood looking- and so very clever, so very, very clever.’’ “Yes’’—I was all svmpathy—“he must have been clever. But say that was sure menn of him, wasn’t it?” Fere Dr. Andrew inferrupted and we again climbed into our plane. l eaving this institution we flew for New York—a matter of a few minutes—and I boarded a steamer for Europe. Th rst thing I noticed on mv arrival in Enqrland was a field for the training of persons in the art of aviation. I applied for entrance and after two weeks training I bought mv plane and prepared for a trip across Europe. There was one thing that interested me. and that was the fact that Marion Johnson was the instructor at that field. T flew to Paris, and when I landed I was accosted by the officer of the law who escorted me to the court just because I had no license on my machine. While in the court Ibecame interested in a case then being tried. A middle-aged woman was on trial for charming her audience so greatly that a magicia of great skill was required to bring them out of their trance. I bought my license, and found out from the judge that if I would take this person out of the country he would free her. This I agreed to do. In case you haven't guessed why I was so interested .n this person I will drop a hint—it was Hope Edwards of the Class of ’20. We left for America immediately before we should get into any more trouble. I tho’t it would be quite nice if I could get into the aerial mail service, so Hope and 1 stopped at Washington to make arrangements for such. We w'ere both agreeably surprised to find that the President was Kathleen Faye and the Vice-President was Frances Olson. We were the Fonor Guests at a piano concert given by the pianist of the day— Madam Frances Phelan. O cfourse she had a very dignified name after the “Madam” but it was Frances, so let's call her by that name. The next day we went to hear a lecture on the abolition of tobacco in the U. S. We recognized this reformer as Ruby Carlson. But how changed. She had her hair drawn tightly back, she wore a heavy cloth waist with high neck and long sleeves, extreme low-heeled shoes, and a skirt down to her heels. As we were walking down the avenues and up the streets after the speech we heard a sweet voice say, “For one dollar I shall g ve you a glimpse into the future. Are you not willing to deposit one dollar to see what the future holds in store for you? We beheld a most charming person in gypsy dress. A red “bandana” was wrapped about her head. In fact, her dress was one of the most charming affairs I have ever had the pleasure of beholding. I decided to have “a peep into my future” even though I do not believe in such things. Anyhow I should not mind having such a charming Palmist do so. She grasped my hand and after looking me straight in the eve for a brief second, she said- “Well, Hello! Emily, how are you anyhow?” “Eva Anderson, I cried with all the pleasure in mv voice, “How, and why are you so occupied?” “Well,” she explained, “I really don't know much about fortune tellrng but as long as the neople are willing to have me tell their future and I can make a good living that way, why not” I could see no reason why she shouldn't and said so After leaving Washington we went to Chicago. We landed on a roof as was the custom, and after making our way to the street we had the pleasure of seeing a “disturber of the peace” taken in charge by a feminine cop. We waited till she had the person safely in the patrol wagon- which she had called, and then tho’t that we would compliment her on her braverv. As she turned at the sound of our voices we were surely amazed to find that this “cop” was Grace Bartn k. another of our class. After she was off duty we had a fine time discussing the whereabouts of all old members of the class of '20, ad laughing over the incidents which took place while that class was in R. H. S. The next day we headed for home. When we were nearly there we collided with a wireless telgraph pole and descended with more speed than dignity. As I was picking myself out of the ruins I heard a familiar voice say. “For pity’s sake, can’t you sleep without falling out of bed?” I awoke to find myself in a most undignified bundle half wav under the bed, I looked at the calendar and found that it was dated 1919. I decided to reioice because I had not slept for 20 years and that I was still a Junior of R. H. S. E. V. M.

There’s Dorothy Zingsheim just inside the Assembly door—or was she? Yes—we reckon she was, but it was a close decision. Three minutes a silent prayer while the roll call was being taken. Now on to English Class. The buzzer in the Language Room is working— nobody thought to cut the wires last night, and it works for a minute and a half. William Hobbs (entering)—“Wysong’s in the Assembly. Listen to him wearing out the batteries.” Stanley Sundell climbs on the radiator to open the only window the Janitor hasn’t nailed shut, and burns himself in the act. But don’t waste your sympathy. The first time he really burns himself the rest are just encores. Miss Craft—“Please finish your conversation now so we can start the recitation.” the class with several regretful remarks obligingly cease. John Larsen comes in late as usual. Dale Magor—“Say, why don’t thev make literature interesting? I can’t get any sense out of this stuff.” Nellie Cohagen takes this opportunity to return the snap shots she just passed to Mathia. Patsy O’Melia—“Wish there was another seat in this class so I wouldn’t have to sit in front.” Elmer Nielson—(suddenly waking up)—“Say, what do I have to sit up here for any how? A feller can be just as good in the back of the room.” Lottie Coulson—(examining yesterday’s paper)—“Isn’t this sentence right? ‘He wrote a promontory note.’ ’’ Annette Hueus—(reading a hitherto unexplored passage in Stevenson) —Vessel—Waiter—Oh, Waiter—“Or perhaps a b t of fear for waiter in so cranks”—And by the way, the sophmore’s opinion of Stevenson was censored. Miss Craft—(After the rest have failed on a question)—“Well PHlm?” And Philip makes a perfect recitation just as we all knew he would. Jimmy O’Donnell—(to Stanley)—“Say there was a man down in the Stock Yards last night.” Miss Craft—“Did you speak. James?” Jimmy—“Oh, I just thought of something Stanley didn’t know.” A truck passes on its way to the oil fields. The entire class follows John’s lead in stretching their necks to see out the window. Wilbur Walck—(remembering in the middle of a word that he is supposed to .stand to recite)—“Oh-ah-ah—(gets up and turns around twice)—“Well, as I was saying—” Feme Mclnturff—Perfect behavior, perfect silence. The class accidentally finished the lesson in thirty minutes- so they had an argument—“Whi is thp mo? useful the knife or the fork?” Ruel Armstrong—“If we didn’t have knives we’d have to pull our meat to pieces and get our fingers all dirty.” Arnold Larsen—“We’d get our fingers just as dirty without forks.” George Edwards—“If we d dn’t have knives, we'd cut out bread with an axe ’’ Morene Kuykendall—“And if we ate with knives, our faces would be all mit up.” Decision of the Judges, Earl, Friedolph and Wilbur—unanimous for the knives. The buzzer sounds again, everybody gets ready for the rush upstairs. Class dismissed. Now we are going to to Geometry, most of us studying lessons on the way. Jimmy O'Donnell—“Say, Miss Sherman, can’t we recite on the fire escape today?” James is dodging a written lesson. In the midst of a deathly stillness, while Miss Sherman is drawing the figure for tomorrow’s proposition—Smack, from the center section. Katherine France slapped Dale Magor. They’re cousins you know. Dorothy Yerxa giggles. Patsy has to explain all the propositions today as Dale has given up propositions during Lent. Wilbur Walck—“I don’t think I can do this one, but I can trv.’’ He got along beautifully, till be missed his chalk He absently mindedly tossed it in the air and caught it in his left hand. Dorothy Yerxa giggles. Elmer NNeilson discards his gum. Miss Sherman—“Louis, if you and Chrystie want to carry on n conversation we’ll let you go to the hall to finish it.” Friedolph—“Say Miss Sherman, I left my book in the Assembly. May I go get it?’’ Dorothy Yerxa giggles. Earl Wilkes moves one s at nearer Dorothv. R”el Armstrong—“Miss Sherman, my book blew out the window.’’ Was George testing his lung power, do vou suppose? The assignment for the next day is made—“Prove any five of the problems on page 196.” Philip Mabonev—“Say, Miss Sherman, which ones are the easiest?” Frances Phelan—“The Bell rang.. Miss Sherman—“The class isn’t excused yet, William, come back and sit down.” Dn-'othv Yerxa gigel s.

MLs Spoor (rxpla'ning tomorrow’s verb) “fumo,” “I smoke,”— blushes nnd decides to call the roll. An’rew Peterson—“TTad to sweep our Spanish room and when I got thru, it was too late.” Dorothy Yerxa—“Oh Well, Gee! There were so many Greek words I didn’t have time to bother.” Katherine France—“Oh, I didn’t even look at it.” Clara Stevens—“P-Prepared?” Ruel Armstrong—“Well—I didn’t understand it.” Fridolf Anderson—“Fad to deliver papers.” (He finished at eight o’clock.) Wilbur Walck—“Lost a sack of spuds off the delivery truck and had to pick them all up.” Morene Kuykenall—“Was sick last night.” John Larsen—“Didnt have time, was busy after supper.” (who was she).

Atuitljrr lawn Once upon a midnight dreary, while 1 pondered weak and weary, Over many a scrawled and blotted paper, handed in the day before. While I nodded nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “Tis some visitor,’’ 1 muttered “tapping at my chamber door, Only this, and nothing more.’’ Oh, distinctly, I remember, it was in the late November. Running on into December, with the fall flu vacation o’er; Sadly I approached the morrow, wondering if I dared to borrow In my grade book, slight sorrow, mercy for the Sophomore, For those poor unlucky classmen, who are listed Sophomore, Poor, unlucky Sophomore. Then forgetting all my worry, papers finished in a hurry, For again I heard the tapping, somewhat louder than before. '‘Surely,” said I softly, “surely, this is not my fancy purely; This one quite a different noise is. from my roommate’s gentle snore. Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore, ’Tis the wind from West Wyoming, Merely that and nothing more.” Here the door I flung wide open, wishin’, prayin’, vainly hopin’, That I’d meet no interrupt on ’till my working hours were o’er; But in stepped a stately Raven, with his tail curled like a shavin’, Like a bold bad boy behavin’, in his talons grasped my grade book. Notwithstanding my dismayed look and with mein nowise uncertain, Fluttered up above my curtain, winked his eye as if a flirtin’, Settled on the pole precarious, opposite my chamber door, Perched and chuckled, “Sophomore.” Then this ebony bird beguiling my surprised look into smiling, By his calm and cheerful manners and his impudence galore, “Though your tail’s curled like a shavin’ you,” I said, “are sure no craven, Proud and arrogant you Raven, wandering from the nightly shore-Tell me what the fellows call you when you step into a store.” Quoth the Raven, “Sophomore.’’ “But why should you seize my grade book, like a bold and thieving pa d crook, Do you doubt those grades are honest, raven opposite my door? Who has sent you to my work room, so to claw my record o’er?” Quoth the Raven, “Sophomore.” “Oh!” I cried with understanding, “you are here for sake of landing Higher grades for those unlucky classmen who are listed Sophomore. Then the Raven chuckling gladly, thinking he’d not done so badly. Scratched across my grade book madly, ere he dropped it on the floor. Then with wings outspread went whirling with his tail so black and curling Disappeared into the darkness, just outside my chamber door, and the night wind bro’t the echo—I’ll forget it nevermore— Echoed softly—“Sophomore.” So if you chance to ponder, and your eyes grow large with wonder, At the meaning of these crow tracks, that are strewed my grade book o’er, They are there but to remind me, of that vis on far behind me. That time merciful must find me, to the class called Sophomore, To the class so ably championed by the Raven, “Sophomore.” —Contributed by McBams, with apologies to Poe. NAMES.

Dreamed he was a graduate With the class of nineteen. He thought that he was standing there. Diploma in his hand; A four square hat was on head, Gowned in his robe so grand. He left his seat, to make a speech. Straight towards the desk he walked His mouth was dry. his lips were parched He sought for words—they balked. He cleared his throat, he cleared it twice He cleared it three times more, The words would start and then they’d stop, Just as they did before. He looked first here, he looked next there, And still no help he found; His knees gave way And with a crash that Freshman hit the ground. “For heavens sake” the usher said, “Why can’t you keep your seat?’’ But the freshman only blinked and rose, Unsteady to his feet. The freshman blushed and stammered some, And bowed a thankful head, “I'm glad I am a freshman still.” With joyous heart, he said. —W. J. C.

I have always liked old company a good deal better than youthful companions more suited to my age so in return the old people thought quite a bit about me, r?nd made me a trifle old fashioned according to their ways. Naturally I was the child picked among all the Grandchildren to take my first ocean voyage by my Grand-mother. The starting point was at Hartlepool- on the northern coast of England, and we took the train to Liverpool. On the way we noticed almost everyone kept their money and small valuables in their stock ngs, for fear of them being stolen. I was a bit afraid at first, hearing all kinds of talk about what would happen, and being teased a lot, but we soon were on our way. On the train we were given a cab almost to ourselves we thought till we look aside and saw a burly old man, with a nose like a promontory which was very red. He was lying full length on the seat along the right side of the cab, with his head propped upon the elbow pad near the window, and his cap pulled over his eyes as if he were sleeping. We doubted at first but soon knew he was in the land of dreams- as he outdid the noise of the train with his snoring. At length it bothered us so, Grandmother asked for her umbrella, to give him a gentle touch in the ribs, but of no use as he still went on working, and we decided to stand the noise. We soon reached Liverpool, qu'te a large place, and took the ship from there. A smaller ship I have not seen since, to take an ocean voyage, nor ever hope to be in again. We were quite surprised with its size. All the work, as much as poss ble was of wood, there was very little copp2r or iron, and everything was badly in need of paint. It was crowded with passengers, mostly of the steerage class- we noticed, when we began to go on, the smell of tar, pitch- and other such foul odors, was not long with the steady rock of the boat before we began to feci as if we would like to be by ourselves for a short time. When we were given a chance to explore the boat, we found no ball rooms of much account, and only one smoking room, which no one ever cared to smoke in. There were many children in the boat, and lots of fun was made bv thumping on the piano in the dining hall and singing until the stewards would give each child an orange to keep him quiet. Of course we practised every day, oranges are good when one is out at sea. One day the great bell in the boat was clamor ng, Grandmother was with another lady and they were both very frightened and wringing their hands desperately. All of a sudden we heard a man’s gruff heavy voice say, “Here they are keep care of them after this.” We' didn’t know what we had done but learned we had fallen asleep in the great fog horn and our elders thought we were lost- or had fallen over board. A few days after, when we were well out at saa, was vacc nation day- for those who were not vaccinated. Rows and rows of people were standing waiting to be examined. I was tired of standing so I sat down. Just then an old sailor passed and I felt a heavy wheelbarrow go ov2r my toes. The doctors were very busy vaccinating and examining. People were vaccinated anywhere, legs, arms, wrists, cheeks, and necks, all with the same dirty instrument. After vacinating, our eyelids were turned back with sharp knives, and over a third of the passengers were put aside, and not allowed to pass into this country. The next day was busy for everyone. All trunks were looked over, and the people searched, to see what was coming into this country, and duties were charged. All new goods and jewelry were paid for by the owner a second time. The twelfth day we landed at Ellis Island- New York. Thousands of people were at this small, sickening place waiting; there was not standing room. Trunks were piled high, newly smashed trunks, large trunks, small trunks, new trunks with the contents spilled, and many other trunks and all portabe baggage. We were not in this place long, our trunks were checked, and we were taken in a cab to the hotel. The cab driver was very reckless, so we decided to get out and walk. “Is that a man or a little boy?’' I exclaimed to Grandma. On every corner were little dwarfs- with unusually large feet and noses. Some were policeman, some were newsboys. The trains here were quite different than those we were used to, instead of a two seated cab, we were ushered into a long train, filled with all kinds of people. We reached Wyoming at last. A few miles from Rawlins, we could see the glaring lights stand out, and the reflections of the sky filled with red colour, were seen in the very smallest bit of water. The shrill whistle of the train blew, and we knew that soon, we would be at our journey’s end with a good rest, after out long and tedious trip. iR. $1. B. Mar Arttmtira On the ninth of September- 1918, about fifty pupils and twenty-five Freshmen assembled in the auditorium for registration of subjects. We were informed that the School Board had discontinued the study of German on account of Anti-German sentiment in America. Instead of the German language the first year of Spanish was substituted in the High School. At the outbreak of the war the pupils with the help of the Domestic Science teacher immediately installed in the Assembly a Service Flag. For the first few months there were only four or five stars on the white field but now the number has increased to sixty filling the ent re field. We also have a magnificient silk flag which was given to the High School Cadets by Mr. and Mrs. Hyland in honor of the r son Kenneth Hyland whose service in the navy is without doubt highly praised. To encourage the spirit of patriot sm in the School Mr. Martin held in his office Thrift Stamps for the benefit of the grades while the Principal secured those for the H gh School. The High School and the grades competed in the sale of the stamps- the grades gained by a small margin the number bought by the High School. One of the most successful drives was that of the Red Cross. At the organization of the Junior Red Cross in the High School the g'rls were organized by Miss Downer, and took up bandage work this was continued all year by the Domestic Sc’ence department. The Red Cross rooms were established on the second floor of the Post Office building and the gauze rooms were later transferred to the basement of the Masonic Temple. During the year there were four Red Cross drives in wh'ch the High School pupils took an active part. In the Second Liberty Loan the High School invested fifty dollars by contr butions of the pupils. In all these five drives school was dismissed for a parade which took place in the afternoon. The proceeds of the play “New Ladv Ban -ock” and contributions from the High School enabled the pupils to adopt for one year three French Orphans. The Children for whom R. H. S. stands Godfather are Yucinne Nic-ant, Offemont, Haut Rh n, Jules Stirlin, Grendvillars, Haut Rhin, Simonne Nagallen, Giromagny, Haut Rhin. —Forrest Healy. Philips Herman of (Caraar Caesar was a no good Roman booze fighter. When he wrote this book he was drunk most of the time and what he did not know he made up. If I had known he was going to write this book I would have given him six cases of “Scotch Highland Whiskey’’ which would have finished him entirely. He was the best scholar of his time and also the biggest liar. He was an imposing braggart and never told anything that was not to h s credit; he lied like the duece when he said that he marched his army ninety miles a day. He was always finding some one that was a traitor and as the old saying goes- “It takes a thief to catch a thief.” —Philip Mahoney. 8. i§. 9 . Arrrrhttrh In January Dr. J. E. Butterworth, Dean of Education at Wyoming University and High School Inspector for the North Central Association visited the High School. At a meeting with the Superintendent, Principal of the High School and Board of Education, Dr. Butterworth stated he would recommend that the Rawlins High School be placed on the accredited list of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools The Association met at Chicago the latter part of March, and the first of April the High School received a notice from Dr. Butterworth that it had been placed on the accred ted list of the Association. Requirements for accrediting are as follows: No school shall be accredited which does not require fifteen units for graduation. Unit course of study in secondary schools is defined as a course covering an academic year that shall include in the aggregate not less than the equivalent of one hundred twenty sixty-minute-hours of class room work, two hours of shop or laboratory work being equivalent to one hour of prepared class room work. More than twenty periods for a week of academic subjects, or twenty-five periods including vocational subjects, exclusive of choral music and physical training, should be discouraged except in the cases of pupils having more than average ability. The School year shall consist of a minimum of thirty-six weeks. All teachers teaching one or more academic subjects must sat'sfy the following requirement: The minimum attainment f teachers of any academic subjects shall be equivalent to graduation from a college belonging to the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools requiring the completion of a four year course of study of a hundred and twenty semester hours in advance of a standard four year High School course. Such requirement shall not be construed as retroactive. The number of daily periods of class room instruction given bv any teacher should not exceed five. The Commission will reject all schools having more than six recitation periods a day for any teacher. The minimum length of a rec tation period shall be forty minutes exclusive of all time used in changing of classes or teachers. The laboratory and library facilities shall be adequate to the need of instruction in the subiects taught. The efficiency of instruction, the acquired habits of thought and study, the general intellectual and moral tone of a school are paramount factors, and therefore only schools wlrch rank well in these particuars, as evidenced bv rigid, thorough-going, sympathetic inspection, shall be considered eligible for the list. The Association declines to consider any school unless such school is in the highest class of schools as officially listed by the properly constituted educational authorities of the State. No school whose records show on excessive number of pupils per teacher, based on average attendance, shall be accredited. The association recommends twenty-five as a maximum. The association believes that the effective work can rarely be done in classes of more than thirty pupils. New schools, hereafter seeking accrediting, shall submit evidence (e.g. a resolution) showing an approval of the standards of the association and of the appl cation for membership by the local board of education or school trustees. The time for which schools are accredited shall be limited to one year, dating from the time of the adoption of the 1 st by the association. The association is conservative, believing that such policy will eventually work to the highest interests of all. It aims to accredit only those schools which possess organization, teaching force, standards of scholarship, equipment and esprit de corps, of such character as w.ll unhesitatingly commend them to any educator, college, or university in the North Central territory. The aim of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools is, therefore, first, to bring about a better acquaintance, a keener sympathy, and a heartier co operation between the colleges and secondary schools of his territory; second, to consider common educational problems and to devise best ways and means of solving them; and, third, to promote the physical, intellectual moral well-being of students by urging proper sanitary conditions of school buildings, adequate library and laboratory facilities, and higher standards of scholarship and of remuneration of teachers. That these aims are, to a large degree, realized as evidenced by the steady growth of the Association and territorial accessions, in number of affiliated and accredited as schools and colleges and in the power and prestige exercised throughout the country in respect to educational policies and practices. The Association is, beyond all doubt, the most generally recogn zed standardized educational agency in the Northwest—if indeed it does not rank first in prestige in the entire United States. It is therefore a distinct honor for any institution to hold affiliated or accredited relationship with this body. The Association’s off.cial recognition gives prestige to a school among educational men and women everywhere. Its recorded approval is a letter of introduction to all colleges, universities and professional schools in the land, and guarantees efficiency and high standing to these institutions. Accredited relations with the Association bring to a secondary school the same distinction and honor as an institution that membership in the society of Phi Beta Kappa or Sigma Xi confers upon an ndividual, or that high rating by Bradstreet or Dunn brings to a firm in business. Moreover- membership in the Association aids boards of education to secure better prepared teachers to erect barriers against untrained teachers, and in general to raise educational standards in their communities. It is the hope of the Association that all schools which are accredited by it will cherish the honor and seek to hold the standards mutuallv and co-operatively established. Any person who has ever attempted to develop an organ zation knows the value of a definite standard towards which to work. For the high schools of the state the North Central Association furnishes such a standard. It provides by its requirements clear program for a school to follow and whatever school follows this program is certa n of offering to its pupils a valuable training for their work in life. BRMMTIH “(Ehf £fcui ICaiUj Utantiirk The “New Lady Bantock’’ was presented to a large and appreciative audience who got full measure of enjoyment from the play. Fanny O'Gorman, an orphan, had run away from her pious relatives at the aga of fourteen to go on the stage where she made a considerable success. Then Lord Bantock, posing as an untitled artist, fell in love with her and married her. He brought her home, still ignorant of his rank to Bantock Hall, only for her to discover that from the ultarespecable butler down to the irresponsible second footman, all the servants were the very relatives she had fled from. Her efforts to keep the news from her husband, and the servants efforts to reform her hold attention through out four acts-until Fanny overcomes her weakness, tells the truth, and becomes mistress of the situation. The receipts for the evening permitted $94.00 to be turned over to the Fund for Fatherless Children of France, and by donation the sum was increased to $108.00, which supports three children for a year.

The Senior play for 1919 was the two act comedy by Rachael Baker “Mr. Bob.” The story concerns a yacht race, from which Philip Royson has to be absent on account of a compact he has made with his Aunt Becky. If he will give up boat racing she will give up her plan to build an asylum for destitute cats. Phillip’s cousn, Katherne Rogers, is also living at the home of Aunt Becky and expects a visit from a girl friend, nicknamed Bob. Philip thinks the exected visitor is a suitor of Katherine’s and when Mr. Brown, a law clerk with important papers arrives at the house, greets him cordially as Mr. Bob. The English butler and Pattv, the maid who wants to min the ballet complete poor Mr. Brown's mystification, and the confusion of indentities becomes more and more complicated until the boat race is over and Mr. Bob has won, when everything is cleared up most satisfactorily.

The end of education which accords with the highest ideals efficiency in the individual. The industrial education in the high school which prepares the student to take his place in society later is a great benefit to a nation. If the schools are to produce American citizens with skill, initiative, and the ability to think and do for themselves—those who can follow directions efficienctly, or can invent a better way, opportunities must be given to use the modes of expression offered mankind for its development. The industry of a boy corresponds to the industry of a nation, and the industry of both are to be thought of as intellectual rather than muscular. A proiect turned out in our shop does not stand for muscular effort alone, but for intellectual activity as well. Careful forethought, systematic planning and proper execution go together. There is something about this plan of doing things, and doing them well which carries a reward unknown to those who think about things only, but never do them. The self satisfaction of having built something ranks high as a reward, for in this production is work done for joy and love, shall they not reap the eternal gain? Typewriting— Type, type, type— On spacer, on shift and on key. And I would that I could utter the thought that arises in me. Oh, sad for the unlucky chap Who types on that short-keyed machine Oh, well if without a mishap His copy is markless and clean. And the clickety sound goes on For speed is gained only by drill But, oh, for the touch of the practiced hand. That our critic’s voice may be still. Type, type. type. On spacer, on shift and on key The speed of the typist the teacher requires, Will it ever be given to me? Miss Nelson states that modesty alone prevents the Sophomores from publishing their individual speed records. We regret to state that the Caesar and History classes are so overworked, that they had no time to give us an account of their work. iBamt iEnnuuntrs Srpartnmtt “If solid happiness we prize, Within our breast this jewel lies’ And they are fools who roam. The world has nothing to bestow, From our own selves our joys must flow, And that dear hut, our home.’’ Home economics education may be defined as that form of vocational education which has for its controlling purpose the preparation of girls and women for useful employment as home daughters and as home makers. Preparation for useful employment in home making implies a spac-ia preparation in an occupation which is a composite of undifferentiated occupations requirng various forms of skill and of related knowledge. Such employment may, or may not be wage earning employment. It is wage earning employment for household assistants. It is not wage earning employment in the general acceptance of the term for home makers. Vocational instruction in home making may be at the same time prevocational training for those specialized occupatons which have grown out of household occupations. As such it may serve as a means of discovering aptitudes and affording some preliminary preparation for such skilled trades and occupations as dressmaking, milinery, catering, housekeeping, and practical nursing. In any case the Home Economics Department prepares its workers for service—service in the home—service to humanity. Can you think of an occupation more noble in its aims tha one seekng to better the conditions of the home and you have bettered the conditions in the nation, for the home is the unit of civilization. (Uummmtal lrj.tartmrnt It has been acknowledged that America is a great industrial nation. Perhaps there is no part of this industry more important than the systemaic accountancy developed in recent years. It was not until bookkeeping became a science that business took such great strides. Great concerns are interested in business management, they demand efficient, well prepared workers. The Commercial Department aims to develop accuracy, speed, correctness, and general preparation to meet the demands of industry. In this department, as well as some of the others, the ability to do things, and do them in the right way is developed. One may study about writing, for many months, and yet be unable to prepare a letter applying for a position in such a manner as to secure the place. In this department practical application of the knowledge learned in the other departments is employed. To write a letter well is of greater importance than to prepare a properly constructed paragraph, because in the letter you have not only the paragraph, but the application of he principle as well. A “17” PUZZLE. A man died and left seventeen mules to be divided among his three sons as follows; the oldest son was to get one half of them, the next oldest son was to get one third of them, and the youngest son was to get one ninth of them. How were they to be divided so that each son got his share without cutting one mule up? Answer:—They went to town and got a lawyer who drove home with them, and put his one mule with the seventeen, making a total eighteen. Then he gave the oldest son nine, the next son six, and the youngest son two. He then hitched up his own mule and drove home. —Reuel Armstrong.

Laramie vs. Rawlins High at Laramie. The game was fast and clean. On this trip the team was backed by a large number of basket ball fans. On February 28, the team played its first game of the western trip. The game was slow and proved to be a walk away for the Rock Springs boys. The score was 30-13 in favor of Rock Springs. March 3 Rawlins vs. Evanston at- Evanston. The first half of the game was very one sided but in the second half the home boys came back and played in their old form. This was another defeat for Rawlins. Score was '42-24. The next day we went to Salt Lake and spent the day there. On March 5 we played the Ogden High School at Ogden and met with an overwhelming defeat. Score Ogden 33, Rawlins 11. The last game of the season for Rawlins was played on the home floor. The game was rough and hard fought. Score Rawlins 24, Rock Springs 20. —Waid Wilkes. dirl’a Uaakrt iltoU erarn Back Row—N. Cohagen (Sub , D. Yerxa (Sub), Miss Sherman, Coach, E.

S. girls basket ball team jour neyed to Rawlins to demonstrate to the people of Rawlins their ability as basket ball players. But sad to state their ability was lacking some little bit, or it seemed when they tried to play the Rawlins team. The game started a eight-thirty and from then until the game was over we all played a very hard and rough game. But as usual (how could it be otherwise?) we won, the score being 16 to 8. It was our first real game this season and so we felt rather sadly delapidated and would have been ready to cash in had not the victory cheered us up so. They, as all losing teams (excluding us) complained about the floor, the referee and all things in general—but that worried us a lot—we won. —C. S. A. ©itr Haskrt Sail (Trip In Surk brings It was time for the train and where were Dorothy amd Frances? They hadn't come yet. While we were sitting waiting and wondering why they didn’t come we looked out of the window and what should we see but two girls just racing down the street, one with a large suit case and the other carrying a bag. After all the excitement the train was late. Of all the alarm clocks that were set the night before for four o'clock. Nevertheless in two or three homes they were not at all needed, for some of the girls including the coach, hadn’t had a wink of sleep that night because, well, there had been a soldier dance and you know the rest. By the time the train did come Chrystie and Mathia were very much interested in a soldier boy that was fortunately waiting for the same train. It didn’t prove to be so fortunate after all, for by the time every body was seated. Frances, Eva, and Miss Sherman had him sitting facing them. But that wasn’t all for before we arrived at our destination a gentleman sitting beside Miss Sherman was fast asleep and his head was nearly resting upon her shoulder. I neglected to say that the train was so crowded we all could no sit together, so the rest of us, Chrystie, Mathia, Ferae, Dorothv, Nellie and I went in the front of the rear car We showed our loyality to our school and such things, except when the conductor would pass through and look at us. With such earrings on we soon reached Rock Springs. Miss Wilson the Rock Springs coach and one of the members of the team met us at the train. They took us to the Palace Hotel but much to out sorrow they had but one room for nine of us. Miss Wilson then took us to the Commercial Hotel kept by Japs. We decided that if we had to stay there all night we would come home on the late train after the game. On going back to the Palace Hotel to see if we could still get the one room, the clerk said we could still have it and gave us the promise of more bv night. We then went to get our breakfast. The restaurant was kept by a Chinaman. There was shomething very interesting to Frances as we en- tered. That was a player piano. She even asked a gentleman to get up and leave his breakfast to have him show her how to put her nickel in. After breakfast, Eva, Frances and Miss Sherman were sent to bed while the rest of us went with Chrystie to see some friends. We also found the candy kitchen where they made delicious candy. We bought some after having something to drink. We then hunted up the house that was said to have been blown up by a pro-German. There wasn’t much to see because it was nearly rebuilt. After a delightful morning bv ourselves we went back to the hotel and found the sleeping ones in much distress. The bell boy had only been up to their room five times trying to fix their window with a shade. We had dinner and then went to visit school. The assembly- the domestic science, and the manual training rooms were not as nice as in our school. Miss Sherman can tell vou all about the manual training room. We practiced thrgwing baskets for a while, then went to supper after which we went to the school house to victory. The game was a very hard one and exciting. Afterwards a lunch was served by the R. S. H. S. girls. There was a dance given for us but we did not attend. Chrystie fared better than if she had attended. I left one gentl?-man at the lobbv door with her and her gentleman friend, in spite of their being called the Coal Dust Twins, asked to throw the morning paper in before thev left, they stayed until they were promised that they should meet Ferae the next morning at the train. You can’t guess what we found t e next morning in the halls of the Hotel. Rose petals sprinkled all through them, that is where Chrystie had walked. However at seven thirty the next morning we were all ready for breakfast and at eight fifteen we were on our wav home. Our chief occupation on the train was playing “Ghost,’’ a very exciting game of cards. —Annette Hugus. A 3Fnu imay WopKCCd CZmzHtz o T«r ' 3awi i hc H ro r School. Wau? rT-jrie-T ir o iuic:.
