We dropped anchor in Nagaski harbor about sunrise one cold morning n Xovetuber, and as soon as the sun had warmed the atmosphere somewhat we went ashore in lighters, small boats used to transport pasesngers and su� -' lies to and from shins lying at anchor i’1 the barber, there being no pier or dock on account oc the shallowness of the water. On being set ashore w were besieged ly a number of men who are t«. Japanese cities what our cabmen arc to American cities, the difference being that instead of having a cab and horses he has a jinrickisha which lie himselt mils, stopping at all places of interest, where lie ceases to be a horse and he conies a guide and interpreter. About the first place he takes his passenger is to a tea garden where tea is served by beautiful Japanese girls at five cents per cup. The tea is good, but the comfortable seats are better. After riding for a while in a “ricksha” one felt it a real pleasure to sit in a big chair and watch the little figures in kimonas and wood-en-soled shoes hurrying back and forth between the tables seeming to keep time to music made bv an orchestra of three pieces of nondescript character, peculiar looking instruments which were m perfect harmony with the surroundings. After an hour in the tea garden we visited some of the temples—places of worship where symbols of the Shinto religion are to he found. In one of these temples a bronze horse is the symbol and it is worshipped by the Japanese who live in the section of the cite where it is located. Everyone entering these places is required to leave lv� shoes outside, a decided inconvenience for Europeans whose shoes are fastened on, but a small matter to the Ja -whose shoes are blocks of wood with a strap across the toe. The eating houses are of great m- 4 THE OCKSHEPERIDA terest to travelers. One noticeable feature is the absence of bread, finely cut dried fish being used instead. A meal for two, including a Ixrttle of “Saki (their native drink), will cost alxmt thirty Sen (fifteen cents in United States money). In the event of a tourist Incoming lost a little policeman wearing a red coat and carrying a short sword will be glad to tell “Honorable American’’ where he can get a ricksha to take him back to the ship. From the Mountains (By Roy Hildebrand) The morning was clear and cold as I picked my way to a high i eak above Rapid Creek canon. The snow seemed a great heavy blanket hiding and protecting the seeds and grass below mv feet. As I looked down into the canon the l eauty of nature’s work amazed me. The sparkling water falling over icy pedestrals and threshing itself into foam among the rocks, the tall pine trees with their cloaks of snow, and the hump-backed range cattle feeding along the bank, made a picture an artist would have found hard to reproduce. Looking to the east and far down the valley the cone-shaped bills appeared to be a huge Titan camp where but recently the soldiers had pitched their large, white tents. The tractless shimmering plain, over which the wolf and jackrabbit hold domain, was spotless in the morning sun, while above me, rising to a great height, loomed the silent mountains. Here and there the forest of pines was broken bv patches of ground pine hich lay white in the untrodden snow. The high rocks and precipices, over which the shaggy mountain goat climbs at will. l«x ked grim and aweinspiring in the gray white color they had assumed. The clear blue sky, together with the blueish-purple haze surrounding the snow-clad mountain peaks, seemed a fitting background to this paradise of ice and snow. When finally I looked again into the canon lx low and toward the cabin where a thin spiral of smoke was slowly mounting into the atmosphere, the thought came to me that no mere human being can fully understand or comprehend the beauty over which nature rules. When great Titian lived, the old lad Made golden haired girls all the fad. If Mis Johnson had been On the green earth just then She’d have made a good model, bedad! John “Celery” Hawkes in his time Has been praised both in pro e and in rhyme, But this secret we’ll tell. And we know very well he'll never In-classed as sublime. THE OCKSHEPERIDA 5 From the Business Manager (By Charles Halley) This is the first time this year I have attempted to write an article for the Ockshcpcrida dealing with the business end of the paper, which, as you all know, is the most difficult part to be handled. Being business manager, it involves the general care of the paper but more especially it deals with the advertising, and the business manager must see the merchants of Sheridar and endeavor to secure their patronage This is necessary for the simple reason that we could not publish a magazine were it not for the income derived from advertising; or a magazine like the Ockxlicpcrida might be published by charging from three to five dollars for each year’s subscription. Thus it is plainly seen that it is the advertising alone which enables the students of Sheridan High School to publish a magazine, and it is about this advertising which I wish to talk to the high school students. Hose many of you ever took aver the advertisements in the Ockshcpcrida and consider what they are offering you? How many of you who, when purchasing some articles at one of the local stores, thank the owners for their advertising in the Ockshcpcrida, or if they do not advertise, remind them that the high school students arc supporting their advertisers? It is probable that, during the six months the Ockshcpcrida has been published. not over a dozen students have ever done either of these things. It is a lack of interest on your part, and on the part of the other students. The majority pay their subscription, receive their paper every month and enjoiy it, they never help to get out an issue eithe by boosting among the merchants or by handing in material. The Ockshcpcrida is supposed to be published by the students of Sheridan High School, but it is not—it is published by the fourteen members of the staff. If the students would do the small thing mentioned above (thanking the advertisers for patronizing the Ock sheperida, and patronizing them), it would be easy to obtain seventy-five dollars a month from advertising, whereas now it is very difficult to secure fortv to forty-five dollars a month. The merchants of Sheridan would be very anxious tQ advertise since thev would lie getting some returns for their money while now it is very difficult to secure advertising since all regard it. and justly, as being a contribution to the paper; finallv. for seventy-five dollars a month Sheridan High School could have the best high school paper published in the United States, while now we have only an ordinary magazine. When you consider, it is not very much trouble on vour part to do those things which we have mentioned. Whenever you purchase some art.!.;' -• 6 THE OCKSHEPER1DA from a firm which is advertising in the Ockshcpcrida, thank them for patronizing your magazine and the high school’s magazine: if they do not advertise, remind them that the high school students are patronizing and boosting Ockshcpcrida advertisers. This would l)e of immense help to the staff with very little trouble on your part. I would love to talk to every student individually about boosting for the Ockshcpcrida. and I did talk with a few, but I am not able to see every one in school, so an article is the only means of reaching all of you. The Ockshcpcrida just made expenses of the printing on this issue, because it was extremely difficult to obtain advertising, and if you wish to see the Ockshcpcrcrida out of debt at the end of the year it is up to you to •help. You can boost, and easily. Here are our advertisers for this issue: J. Krank Heald. Sheridan County Savings Bank. Bentley! Petrie. P. C. Duncan. Citizens State Bank. Mills Printing Co.

But what about the “after effects? Miss Cooper (in English)—“From where I am standing I can see a little house on the hill. Charles Gettys—“I want to see it.

Professor Hawkes recently taught the “tango in geometry class. Old Santa generally visits Freshmen only, but this year he brought sever d Sophomore boys new pompadours. 10 THE OCKSHEPERIDA (By Frederica Buell, Hazel Cossitt and Charles Rose). The Freshman, like the rest of the classes, are exceedingly sorry that Miss Furr has had to give up her work in High School. A number of the Freshman have called on her at the hospital. Hallie Moore spent her Christmas vacation in Macon, Mo. By this newly acquired knowledge of Algebra, Clarie Mills has proven Miss Johnson’s age. Ask him what lie found. William Anderson has become jealous of Manville’s skill as a poet and has himself handed in some poetry. Here is a sample of his work: There was a young maid from Fall River, Who went to town to purchase some liver: She went to a show and blew all the dough, Now her parents will never forgi'v her. Also this: There was a young man named Cow Mooer Met a girl and thought he know her. He lifted his hat and she gave him a bat And he lit on his ear in the sewer. A Latin Match was held between and B sections of the Latin class aftet school one evening. The B section won. Mr. Miller took his Commercial Geography class on an interurban trip to the mines at Acme. Every one who went reported having an excellent time. Jt - Harry—“Why do you always comb you hair. Leonard?” Leonard—“Miss Kochen doesn’t like boys who don’t comb their hair.” THE OCKSHEPERIDA 11 Alumni Notes By Alger Lonabaugh. Many of the Alumni spent their Christmas vacations at home. Among them were Berenice Stevens, from Ferry Hall, Lake Forest, Chicago; Florence Taylor and Vivian Church from Lincoln, where they are attending the University; Paul West, from Casper: Dorothy and Lester Worthington, also Ruth Evans, from Laramie: Helen Huffman, from Lincoln. Several of the Alumni girls have h en married recentlv. Mabel Achin-soi. Ruth Carrol and Clara Wade, all Ding Christmas, or near-Christmas, brides. Ella Haltenhoff. a graduate of the lass of 1909. is attending school in S earf sh. South Dakota, specializing in Cerman. B'r nicf Robinson a member of the • resent Seri r class, is also in Spear-fish. Since his father’s election. Tiverton Tynan is manager of the furniture store. Jouvenat and Harvey Luce except that they are doing excellent work in classes. Another Alumnus who spent Christmas at home is Richard Hamilton, whose father lives on Piney. He was the brightest pupil in his class. Since then he has been graduated from Ann Arbor and is now working for the government. He is a good illustration of what determination will do for a fellow who has to “work his way” for an education. He made his way entirely through high school and college. Dorothy Buell is teaching school near ClearmonL . She plans to enter college next fall. Clinton Burnett, a former member of '.lie present Senior class, came horn, for the holidays. We are very glad to hear that Fay Xellie and Edith Polly were in town l el is improving. for a sjlort vjsjt Christmas week. Robert Wood is now one of Unc'c Sam’s regular mail carriers.

Me were all very sorry to hear of Miss Furr's illness and that she had licen compelled to give up teaching. It has been reported that she has tuberculosis. but the doctors think it is only asthmatic trouble. Miss Furr hopes to continue her work in a little over i year from now. Mrs. Vernon Griffith is substituting until a permanent teacher can l e secured in Miss Furr’s place. Mrs. Griffith taught here formerly. , On New Year’s eve our basket ball team played Buffalo High at that place. The score was 29 to 11 in favor of Buffalo. but when we realize that our boys had had ’ less than two weeks’ practice. we think they did very well. A return game to be played here on Friday. January 16. has been scheduled. On Wednesday evening a stereopti con lecture was given in the High School Assembly by Miss Johnson. She has traveled extensively through l.urope and talked very entertainingly o. Switzerland. The slides, which were very Ireauti fully colored, were loaned by the Keystone Company, from whom we intend to buy slides. The lecture was not as well attended as t should have been, as it was well worth while. The proceeds of the entertainment were $10.50. The Glee Club has settled down to hard work and is well attended, usually. A ruling was made at the first of the year to drop anyone who was absent from a meeting more than three times during the year without a good excus.x and this is going to be carried out. The Club is planning some good tipies to begin in the near future. The Boys’ Music Class is still working faithfully and learning rapidly. Roy Hildebrand has proven to l e fine on high tenor, and George Johnson on second bass. They are singing several dassical pieces, including the “Bud frog on the Bank” ami “Sunday Fi-1.-ing.” Much time has been spent teaching the lioys to read music. EXCHANGES By Louise Enochs.

The first basket ball game was scheduled between Sheridan High and Buffalo High for January i. The trip to Buffalo was made in two autos both of which broke down several times. One had several punctures and “Chick who is an expert mechanic did all the pumping up of tires. Mr. Forsythe was forced to get 011 and push in the other one because it had to make all the bills on high. The trip going took some four or five hours. The game was played in the Blffalo armory. The Sheridan boys were at some disadvantage because the floor was so slippery and they had no boundary except on one side. At the end of the first half the score stood five to thirteen in Buffalo’s favor and at the end of the last half each side about doubled their score, making it twenty-nine to eleven. Buffalo had the ball most of the time but the Sheridan boys displayed verv good team work. The Sheridan players scored as follows: Cope. Center—Two baskets. McMaken, L. Guard—One basket. Addelman. R. Guard—One basket and one free throw. Granger. R. Forward—One basket. Brown, L. Forward. Lonabaugh, Reynolds, and Thorn were substitutes. Jeffers, umpire: Forsythe, referee.

Granger and Forsythe both picked out the same girl, but Forsythe got the Home Sweet Home with her. The boys stayed at the Zindel Hotel and surprised the people, but not very agreeably, by getting in at 4:30 a. m. There was a dumb waiter in Manager ‘'Bill’s room and the Inns sent his shoes down to the lower floor. Hill didn't consider this a very good joke. The High School has rented the Kirby to practice in in the afternoons, and the players are working hard under Coach Forsythe. The schedule foi games has not been officially given out. but it is about as follows: A game with Buffalo High School on the 16th; two games with the Alumni, the first to Ik ] laved the 23rd at Buffalo, and the other to be played in Sheridan: three games with Spencer, two with Billings. and three with Carneyville. dates for which have not been set. The gymnasium classes were organized for the boys soon after the foot ball season. A great deal of interest was shown at the time, and about thirty were out for the first two drills. However. about that time skating was very good, and nearly all decided that they preferred the out-door sport to the in- side drills. 'Phis had the approval of the instructor, Mr. Forsythe. The City Ball Park, owned by the Sheridan public schools, has been rented for the purpose of making a skating rink out of it during the winter months. This is in charge of Mr. Kerr. The skating has been popular with the town people generally, but would have been more so if there had been some snow, and the ice on the creek had not been so good. Skating has been one of the chief delights during the last six weeks. The weather has never been more delightful for the sport. All around 11s we hear of big snow storms and extremely low temperature, but Sheridan has been I leased with a streak of fine weather which could not lie excelled anywhere. We have had sunshine, moonshine. Hear skies, and brisk atmosphere which have made the skating ideal. Teachers and pupils have spent many hours on the ice. and the outlook is still good for a continuation of these condition- . The popular locations for the skating are the City Park, near the Crystal ice Speaking of skating, the roller skating at the Kirby is not so poor.
