Our basketball and baseball teams were both of extra fine calibre this season. Our basketball quint proved to be a tartar to many of the best high school teams in the vicinity. The only five to defeat them twice was Pittsford, who had an exceptionally strong team. Our boys defeated some of the best teams, including Newark, which met defeat twice, and Cathe- dral High, which met defeat once during the season, and that at the hands of Spencerport on January 23, 1914-. The Cathedral game was one of the best games ever seen on the Masonic Court. The Cathedral representatives came out from Rochester in a large body, intending to do the town before the game, but decided to wait until their team had won. AFor some reason or other they did not possess that feeling after the game had been played, and the score read: Spencerport 446, Cathedral 26. This must have been the reason for their case of blues. ' The teams took the floor with determination, Spencerport to get re- venge for a recent defeat at the hands of their opponents, Cathedral to prevent the string of victories from being broken. It could be plainly seen after ten minutes that Cathedral was out-classed, for our quint had ten points chalked up against zero for Cathedral. However, the city five soon overcame their slackness and began to score, but it was too late, for Spencerport was leading and was determined to do so throughout the game. The first half ended with Spencerport on top, 17-13. 1 The second half started like a whirlwind. Evidently the Cathedral coach had been expressing his feelings, for our enemy began to score from the start, and gained the lead for the first time during the game. But their sprint soon ceased, for the heavy men on our team applied their weight to full advantage, and it could be seen that the city boys were tire- ing, for their liveliness gradually vanished, and the points began to pile up for Spencerport once more, almost at will, until the whistle blew and the game was over. The crowd was very much excited, for it did them good to see Cathedral trounced. The final score was indicated as 4-6-26, Cathe- dral trailing. as The following players represented Spencerport High on the court, during the season of 1913-14: Lester Welch, captain and center, James Lapp, right forward, Ben Everett, left forward, Leo Goodridge, right guard, Willis Dimock and Harold Dunn, left guard. The High School students are just as proud of their baseball team as of their basketball team. Baseball started its season against W'est High. This game was lost by a I2-4 score. The next two games were victories for the nine, both games being played with Holley, but the third game was lost to Albion. On May I5 we encountered our old enemy, Cathedral High, and fought a sixteen inning game with them, in which we lost out, 6-5. In the ninth inning our boys came to bat with the score 5-2 against them. Lapp, first man up, n1ade a hit and was advanced by a hunt, which Welch laid down the first base line. Dunn hit safe and put Lapp on third, while he him- self trotted down to second, True struck out. Thus, with two men Ollt and two on bases, Goodridge, who hits like an old leaguer, drove out a two-bagger wl1iel1 sent Lapp and Dunn across the pan. The next man to face the Cathedral pitcher was our little right fielder, Peachie, who drove in the tieing run. Taylor fanned, thus ending the -inning with the score tied. The remaining innings saw some classical baseball, played by both teams. The pitchers allowed only a few hits. In the first of the sixteenth, Cathedral put a run across, by means of a wild throw over first. Our nine came to bat determined to tic the score again, but all three men who faced the Cathedral pitcher were easy outs, and the game was over. This is an undisputed record for a baseball game among high school teams, and Spencerport and Cathedral can easily hold it, for no sixteen inning game has ever been recorded in this section of New York outside of- the leagues. The Spencerport team possesses the following members: Infielders: Welch, Dimock, Everett, Dunn. Outfielders: Allen, Taylor, Goodridge, Sackett and True. Batter Sweeney and La . F. L. W. y: .

Colonel Rudd has a violent temper, a Chinese cook, a mischief loving son and an enemy, The enemy, Colonel Byrd, also has a violent temper and a charming daughter, Marjorie, with whom Bob Rudd has fallen in love. lf Colonel Byrd knew of this attachment he would never consent to the engagement. To gain this consent, Bob has visited the Byrd's under the name of Tom Foster, whom the old gentleman likes, but Marjorie insists on having Bob's f'ather's consent also. The feeling be- tween the two old gentlemen is mutual and the prospect for the lovers is dismal. Bob's father has a girl picked out for him, and the girl's mother also favors this match, but the girl, Julia Carroll, is in love with Ned Graydon. A maid is necessary in Bob's home and he thinks of a plan to win the old gentleman's consent. Bob has Marjorie take the position of maid, and she wins over the Colonel, who wishes to adopt her. Meanwhile Bob has invited Graydon to visit him as a college friend who is working his way thru college by selling things in the summer time. Graydon, under his false pretenses, forgets his assumed name and mixes things up in general. Colonel Byrd arrives in search of his daughter whom he declares is in the home of Colonel Rudd. Ching is told by the young people to keep the Colonel from seeing his daughter and exciting times follow. Colonel Rudd disinherits his son because he refuses to marry Julia Carroll, and there is many misunderstandings. At last every thing ends all right. 32 THE CHRISTMAS FAIR. As it was nearing Christmas, the pupils of the Spencerport High School considered it would be a grand opportunity to hold a fair and thus raise money for the athletic association. Each class was assigned a special feature. Visitors entering the English room were dazzled by its singular white- ness, for with large white streamers draped from the corners of the room to the chandelier, it presented a most striking appearance. A brilliant red and green Merry Christmas greeted them from the blackboard. In one corner, the Seniors were appealing to the sweet tooth of all with their delicious home-made candies, while for those who wished to rest at the small attractively decorated tables, lighted by softly burning candles the Juniors served cool, refreshing ice cream. ln the labratory, the Sophomores and the Freshmen were busily en-- gaged in selling their wares. The fancy articles of every description sold by the Sophomores were prettily set off by their colors, blue and white. No one could resist trying his luck at the Freshman grab-bag, glowing in red and white. In the assembly hall was the feature of the evening, an entertain- ment, including a one act farce entitled, Up Against It, a few musical selections rendered by the Kappa Mu and a number of daintily dressed Japanese maids with parasols and fans singing, A Japanese Maiden, and lastly the Scrap Iron Quartetteu in a number of humorous songs which sent the guests home feeling better, for the evening of fun and frolic.

At the weekly meetings the members made a study of music. The society has been a great success and has accomplished its aim -to better acquaint the girls of the High School. At the weekly meetings, after the business had been transacted, the even- ing was spent singing. At the school fair the girls had a part in the program and their songs were appreciated. During the winter a spread was held in the laboratory, where everyone was tempted by the many good things and later in the evening a short entertainment was given in the assembly hall. Besides the members of the society, the faculty were present and all spent a most enjoy- able evening. Later in the winter the club had a sleighride party. Refreshments were served at the home of a member and a jolly evening was spent. When warm weather came, the call of spring could not be resisted and instead of spending their time singing, the girls decided to take tramps to the woods and through the country. VVe hope that the society may continue next year and be even a greater success than it has been this year. 88 The Scrap Iron Quartette TIIIC Sl'ln'.-Il' IHUN QU,'1IfTETTE Pnov. I . N.

Neff Stroup . . . .Erva Stettner SALUTATORY Teachers, Members of the Board of Trustees, Friends and Fellow Students: I, in behalf of the Class of 19141, of Spencerport High School, extend to you a most cordial welcome to our exercises this evening. VVe have assem- bled here to celebrate the completion of our High School life. We rejoice, not at the fact that we are about to leave the place to which wc have become so strongly attached, but we rejoice to think that we have had the privilege of going there. For four years we have enjoyed the hospitality of Spencerport High School, we have been supported by the taxpayers and citizens, received the friendly aid of teachers and the sympathy ,of our fellow students. To- night we are glad that an opportunity presents ,itself for us to show our appreciation and thank those people who have made our High School course possible, and to do so publicly. Particularly do we wish to acknowledge our indebtedness to the Board of Trustees and citizens, who have made the school itself possible and who have given their support and cooperation in making the school a success. It goes without saying that without their friendly aid we should not be here this evening. VVe owe much praise and thanks to the teachers who have worked so hard in preparing us to meet the obstacles of our future life. The steadfast confidence with .which they have supported us has given us courage. When we were struggling to get over some barrier and became discouraged, the teachers aided us and their constancy of support has been the essential prop of our success. But now we shall not have the teachers to guide us when we are in despair, and as the time rolls by we are sure to value more and more their warnings and instructions. The time has arrived for us to leave the Spencerport High School and in years to come we hope to be able to do something for our country which will benefit the school and those who have so faithfully stood by it. Hence, classmates, let each one of us direct our steps according to our talents, which are already beginning to show, and develop them to the highest perfection. ln this way we may help repay, to a respectable degree, our debtors. With what success we shall meet is not ours to know, but time will prove the value of our labors. Again I wish to extend to you a hearty welcome and I hope you will all enjoy these exercises. May they leave a strong and lasting impression upon the younger people, who we hope may have the ambition and privilege of a high school education. 41 1 l CLASS ORATION AMBITION THE MASTER Ambition is the desire for advancement, the desire to improve mentally, morallyland financially. One who is ambitious is always striving to increase his power and to reach a higher elevation in life in order to do greater things. The man who was ambitious when he was young worked to gain, and to-day is well to do. The man who was not ambitious when he was young did not care to do anything great nor to advance and to-day he is a happy go-lucky fellow without anything to show for his time. The many obstacles that come between us and success can be overcome if we are ambitious enough to work hard. This is true as has been shown by the life of Abraham Lincoln. You all know the story of how at night, after he had worked hard all day, he used to walk several miles for books. You know how Thomas Edison has risen from a newsboy to be the greatest electrician in the world to-day. John Wanamaker was ambitious when he was a clerk in a grocery storey to-day he is at the head of two large depart- ment stores. There are many thousand others, even men in our own town that have succeeded by hard work. Since ambition results in Success, we, the Senior Class have taken Ambition The Master to lead us through life. . .--.1 CLASS POEM Old Father Time has brought to a close, The school days of nineteen fourteeng And, gathered beneath the green and gold, Sixteen bright faces are seen. ' For four years, we have studied and labored This longed-for night to see, VVhen we might stand here as Seniors And the pride of our High School be. Freshmen. the time is not long E'er you, our places will fill, So when trials and sorrows aifront you, Put forth extra effort and will. For the prize is well worth the struggle That is needed to bring you through, And ever and always to guide you, Stand teachers, loyal and true. 42 Sophomores, keep up your spirit, Don't think of the dreadful word fail, For in time you'll stand as Seniors, While on high your banner will sail. The same, we say to you, Juniors, . But your time is the shortest of all To spend in this dear old High School, In each old room and hall. May the pleasures and joys be yours That have showered our pathway this year, And each be a memory fond That will make this High School more dear. Be faithful and loyal always, Stand firm in the path of right, And when the final day comes You'll he victors in the fight. Dear teachers, each Senior now offers His sincere thanks to you, For the guidance and help you have given, These four long years through. Long, and still the shortest Of all the years in this life, For these have been full of pleasure While in the rest, there is more or less strife And now as we bid our farewells To this school we hold so dear, We are mindful that our janitor ls one of the most faithful here, The Hrst to come in the morning, The last to leave at night, Always ready to help us The ink spots to put out of sight. Aufwiedersehen, dear Spencerport, We now must part from thee, But the experiences we have had here Our guide in this life will be. And now as we enter the future, We cannot keep back the tear That comes when we think of parting From the scenes of our school days so dear. 48 THE PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF 1914 One bright sunslliny day in May, I was wandering through a large field idly dreaming, nothing in particular occupying my mind, when sud- denly my attention was attracted by a large white daisy which was un- doubtedly the first of the season. As I stood looking down upon it, I dis- covered that it differed from any that I had ever seen. There were two rows of petals and beneath the first I found strange inscriptions written in a very small hand. I read one or two and found the fates of a couple of my classmates. I picked the daisy and saved it for this occasion for I was sure that it could prophesy the future of the class of 1914. This first petal states that a stately young lady of the class will devote her life to the noble cause of votes for women. She is to become an emi- nent suffragette leader and conduct many lectures in the large cities. This, the future of Gertrude Sutherland. A certain young man is to attend a theological seminary and after his graduation will become a celebrated Doctor of Divinity. Whose can this lie? Why, Leo Goodridge's of course. There is a tenor in this petal which decries that Erva Stettner is to de- vote part of her time to the study of art and music. In the other portion I find that she is to go abroad soon but, influenced by the affection for her flag Clflaggj she will betake herself to the United Statefsj. This petal is quite a broad one and seems very bright. One of our girls is to go to college next year where she will attain much fame for.her excellent, scholarly ability. This is the future of Lucia Gridley, the vale- dictorian of our class. Genie Ring will take a dressmaking course in the Mechanics Institute of Rochester. Not long after her graduation, however, Prince Charming will prevail upon her to practice dressmaking and domestic science in her own home. Here it is decreed that one of our girls will become a trained nurse. This is the future of Ruth Leiter, who will volunteer her services in the cause of the war with Mexico. Ruth will be stationed on one of the battle- fields of that country during the time which she devotes to this Work. Roger Ladd is to go to Buffalo next year to take up the study of medi- cine. After his graduation he will practice in a large city where he will win great renown in this field of labor. 'X This petal states that Willis Dimoek is to become a very prosperous gentleman farmer. ,He will enter politics and after he has decided to lead A1 quiet country life, VVillis will become Justice of the Peace of the town in which he now resides. One of our young men is to become a prominent lawyer of New York City. He is of course Stanley Cady, who chose this profession because of his brilliant success as Mr. Bascbm in the Senior Play. Q4 lf Herbert Rogers will enter politics and in this field gain much notoriety. He is to become a member of the House of Representatives and perhaps in this capacity he will be able to do justice to his great oratorical ability along the line of argumentation. Here is a longer petal than the rest which signihes that this person will attain his ideals and be very successful in all of his enterprizes. This young man is to teach in a district school next year for he has decided that a little -physical cutlure will be beneficial to him before his entrance to college. This is the future of Harlow Stettner. Our history authority is to enter Cornell after his graduation at the Spencerport High School in order to take up the study of horticulture. Leonard Allen will become a farmer and locate somewhere near Webster, because of the acquaintances he made of that place while in Washington. Here it is decreed that Irene Brock will graduate from the Rochester Business Institme and then locate in that city for a short time, aifteriwhich slfeiwil live ust nort 1 ofWSpe'nce'rpor-t-onraliifge fruit ifariniq- W,The inscription on this petal is written in large letters and declares that one of our members is to enter a theatrical career and be a great success on the vaudeville stage. This is the future of our President, Harold Fetter. One of our fair-haired girls is to become a teacher and in after years go as a missionary to China. Her many kindly ways and genial manner will tind opportunity for much philanthropy among the heathens of that country. This is the fortune of Ruth Gridley. I.ast but not least in inevitable significance, I presume, my own fate is also revealed. In as much as I am quite satisfied to deal merely with the present I have decided to allow my future to come about as it will without my knowing of its consequences beforehand. TIIE HISTORY OF THE ULASS OF 1911 We, the Graduating Class of Spcncerport High School are about to enter a broader field of life and as we look back upon our high school course, it seems altogether fitting and proper that a brief history of this noble class he given. We hope that we have set a good example for the following classes and that their course in high school may be as eventful and successful as ours has been. In order to tell about our progress and success we wish to leave a few lines by which we may be remembered by ou, friends and schoolmates. It is my great privilege and pleasure in behalf of the class of 1914- to tell about the most important incidents in the life of the class and the relation to the school. At the beginning of our high school career, the school building was under repair and a few additions were being made that greatly enlarged the capacity and gave more conveniences to work with. After climbing over 415 piles of lumber, stumbling up the stairs and edging their way in the as- sembly hall this group seized the back seats but were soon informed that their place was in the front of the room where each retreated good naturedly. Amidst the clamor and continual taps of the hammer, the harsh words of the workmen and the familiar call of the principal Get to work there,', these freshies settled down to business. The class organized under the name of Freshmen under the direction of Bill Dimock, the first class president, who was a capable leader, and like a good shepherd he cared for the sheep. One is inclined to think that fresh- men are a queer lot and out of place with the rest, but this class was an exception for it always seemed to be as bright and gay and have as good a time as any of the upper classes. In the second year came more difficult problems, which involved the read- ing of Caesar's Gallic Wars. Everyone disliked this subject except Butter Ladd, who was a shark in Latin as well as in German, and much hate and all kinds of curses were bestowed upon the famous Roman. Many said that they wished that he had died before he acquired such fame and wrote the book. A new force of teachers had been secured and instructed us throughout the year in a beneficial way. During this period Votes for Women was advo- cated and as representing the cause Gertrude Sutherland, a prominent suffra- gette, came forward and was proclaimed president of the class, under whose auspices there was progress. Some things that every one heard every day in the week and forty weeks in the year were Q daily vocal exercises. Among her favorite sayings were, Miss Brock, tend to your owgn work, pleasefg .qbr Stettnerfwere you tarrgf FJ' fthe quick answerj No, I was late. I want to see the following people after school t0IlIgl1t.,,c then a long list of Caesar and German students was headj and I have the fol- lowing list of excuses that must be in by tomorrow. The next year new problems confronted the class. Advancement was made in science, art and everything in general. Prosperity in the extension of knowledge was evident and they left their Junior year better fitted to sight the problems of the coming year. Each member strove to attain the highest class standing, but Roger Ladd, the fellow that always had every- thing correct, received the gold medal. The year went off well and there were but few events of interest. Entertaining last year's graduates at South Park and the class picnic held on the Steamship Ontario to Cobourg, were among the chief social functions of the year. Those that went had a good time. The final year came at last, accompanied by hard work and difficult problems, but each member faced them with an ever ready and willing hand. Our hopes were brightened by the number of new teachers secured, under whose directions we have been able to complete our course and whose earnest, sincere and unceasing toil have enabled us to do our best work. The first difhcult problem was that of arranging the program to suit all the Seniors, - 46 but this was accomplished only after much consideration and revision. ln the beginning of the fall term the class organized and elected officers. In the middle of December the school fair was held and everyone took part in some way to make it a success. It is well to state here that the notable Scrap Iron Quartette, composed entirely of Seniors, gave its first stage pro- duction, a sketch by Harold E. F etter and Company. In the latter part of January the debates were held and many of the class dreaded them because each one was obliged to get up in the front of the assembly hall, filled with eager faces desiring to hear every word of the procedure, and deliver his portion of the discussion. The subjects debated upon were: Wealth ls Better than Learning, The Steam Engine Has Done More for the WVorld than the Telegraph, and Every Student Receiving an Average of Ninety Per Cent. in His Classes Should Be Exempt From the Final Examinations. Each subject was closely and hotly discussed, both sides claiming victory in each contest. The Senior play entitled The Colonel's Maid, was the next attraction and was given in the early part of April. Under the direction of Miss Tripp the play was prepared and on the two nights it was given each member of the cast rendered his part in a creditable way. The great event of the year which everyone looked forward to with great pleasure and curiosity, was the trip to VVashington and Philadelphia. Nearly all the members took advantage of this great chance together with two members of the faculty and other friends. Everyone had a fine time and gained some idea of what goes on in the capital city and visited some of the historical places in the vicinity. No one will ever forget this trip as long as he lives. The class as a whole has been studious, ambitious and energetic but in social ways it has been a happy, jolly and entllusiastic group. At the be- ginning of its high school course the class numbered nearly thirty members. but as time passed the number gradually decreased and with a few slight additions the ranks stand, tried and true-sixteen members, eight girls and eight boys, an equal number of each, a record that none of our predecessors has ever made. We are also the largest class that has graduated from Spen- cerport High School. , '. u I.: , The class has been well represented in the school athleticsithlroughout its course. Much talent is shown along certain lines among which we have artists, machinists, ventriloquists, musicians, imatators, barnyard comedians, poets and a class politician, a full-blooded Bull Mooser. Each member, through his determination and brave efforts, has survived the wear and tear of the four years and has finally reached the goal. But now as we are about to go from our school, our friends, our teach ers and from each other, and go out out into the world to fill our respective places, we realize that no matter how far our paths diverge, we shall look back with pride upon the many happy days and profitable times spent to- gether while attending Spencerport High School. , 4,7 v THE MANTLE ORA TION We, the Seniors of 19141, upon leaving our dear old high school wish, and indeed feel it out duty, to extend to the Junior Class a few words of advice. Though most of the recollections of our school days here are pleasant ones, we cannot help remembering the few mistakes we made, so we wish to tell you, who will next year fill the places made vacant by us, how you may avoid these mistakes and make your school record a credit to you. The back seats in the study hall are waiting to be occupied by you, the dignified Seniors of 1915, and may you do honor to them by your ever per- fect conduct in school hours. Try to realize the responsibility resting upon you in holding this position, for you are continually setting an example which will be followed by the classes to come, and may you always strive to make that example a perfect one. Never forget the teachers, who are always earnestly working for all of you that you may be fitted for your life work. Strive to raise the standard of the school in every way so that you, the Seniors of 1915, may long be remembered. It would be needless to make any suggestions as to how to accomplish this as the Juniors are known for their very bright ideas. 9 Lastly, remeinher your classmates and schoolmates and work for their benefit and honor, for in doing this you set an example which will be copied by all the classes of the future. Now I present to the Junior Class this mantle honored and cherished by the Seniors of 191-L which is to be guarded by you and handed down on your graduation to the next class as the symbol of your position and influence. Those holding this mantle in their possession nmst nexer be anything but dignified Seniors. May you always do honor to it. With the fond wish that your Senior year may be one of happiness and success we bid farewell to the 1914- Juniors.

The four years that l1ave passed since first we entered the halls of our dear old Alma Mater have been happy ones, and wc shall al- ways hold dear the pleasant memories of our associations with it. As we bid farewell to-night to our high school we realize thatjdoubtless, many of the associations which we have formed in these past four years Will be broken, for each of us will follow the path that is waiting for us. Even though we rejoice that we have so successfully completed our high school course and have arrived at our graduation time, thc thought of the separaf tion, which must necessarily come, brings to us feelings of sadness. Embarking to-night on life's sea, there comes to us the knowledge that we must each direct our own course. No longer shall we be protected and guided by our teachers and friends who have been so interested in our wel- fare. But hence forward there rests with each one of us the task of making our lives a credit to those who have worked for our success. Our exercises here this evening simply mark the beginning of a new life beyond the school walls. And while we all enter this life with success as our aim, yet in order to attain that end it will be necessary to put forth every effort. We will oft times meet reverses but each one overcome will give us a new inspiration to master others. Labor and self-denial are the prices of all excellence. VVe may have many advantages for our success hut unless we have a desire to do something and he something, all else will be in vain. ' And now. classmates, as we are about to separate one from another and leave those who have guided us thus far through life, let us see that all of our efforts will be crowned with success and that the Class of 1914- will fur- nish no drones in the great hive of human industry.

CHORUS 52 f A TRIP TO WASHINGTON Bright and early Friday morning, April 10, 191111, the Seniors, accom- panied by several outsiders, left Spencerport for Washington, D. C. We joined the parties from Charlotte and Webster at Rochester and proceeded on our journey. The scenery was very fascinating and we entertained our- selves by admiring it, playing cards and cracking jokes. Our train was a very long one and, like all others, subject to various delays. After luncheon we were all anxious to obtain a glimpse of Harris- burg in that we had anticipated reaching there sometime during the middle of the afternoon. Everyone began impatiently to Search the maps showing the route which we were taking and finally concluded that Friday was truly an unlucky day. Time dragged. The mountains rose far above us, some- times on one side and then on the other. The Susquehanna was particularly attractive for the sun was just setting as we reached this section and the re- flection of the sunlight upon tl1e water was glorious. At Rockville we caught sight of a stone bridge of fifty arches. This is said to be the longest of its kind in the world. Finally we reached Harrisburg. As we were approaching the depot we secured a glimpse of tl1e State Capitol and a few of the surrounding build- ings. It was just dusk and after a stop of about twenty minutes, we con- tinued on our way, seeing nomore of the country through which we were traveling rapidly. VVe arrived at Washington at midnight. The air was very cool and did not seem to live up to the tales we had heard of the Sunny Southf, In going to our hotel we could discern the distinct outlines of the lofty Capitol against the dark sky. On the following morning we took a sight-seeing trip about the city and spent considerable time before luncheon in the Capitol. Here we en- countered many amusing experiences such as being left alone in the dome or down in the rotunda fondly gazing at some great painting. In the after- noon we visited the Congressional Library. We were all very much taken up by the wonderful works of art found here and loathed the thoughts of leav- ing for we surely realized its worth and appreciated its magnificence. In order to fully apprize its exquisite mosaic work and interior decorations we made :1 second visit in the evening and found the building far more enchant- ing. Easter Sunday was spent very quietly. lVe attended church in the morning and after luncheon betook ourselves to the National Museum. Here we found innumerable fascinating curios and could have spent a week exam- ining them. We indulged in a spread that evening and enjoyed a very jovial time. 53 Monday was an extremely bright, sunshiny day and we started for the Washington Monument. In as much as a great many people had gathered there before our arrival, we decided to walk up to the apex instead of wait- ing our turn in the elevator. This task took us nearly half an hour, but it was, of course, a great novelty. The interior was fascinating. Large tab- lets representing the various states furnished decoration for the walls. The stairway was a very broad one, the flights of which wound themselves about the path of the elevator. From the top of the monument we obtained an ex- cellent view of the city and its surroundings. .lust outside we were chal- lenged by a photographer and had our pictures taken. This fate grew to be part of our daily routine. We then walked over to the Smithsonian Insti- tute where we found many very interesting articles. After luncheon we started for the White House to meet the President at 2 o'clock. This was one of tl1e principal events of our trip. The recep- tion was held in the East Room. About one thousand people were present. Shortly after, we became greatly interested in the Pan-American building. Its sunken garden containing numerous tropical plants was very attractive. Its various halls and reception room were beautiful, although they have not yet been decorated. At a short distance from here we espied the United States Marine Band. Listening intently to the soft strains of many patri- otic airs we rested for an hour or so in the park and then returned to the hotel. There was considerable talk of getting up a theatre party after dinner but much controversy resulted in our going to the movies,,' where some found it a difficult task to keep awake. On the following morning we started out on an all-day trip. VVe left WVashington at ten o'clock in the morning for Mt. Vernon, going up the Po- tomac. This was not particularly enjoyable in that the day was very cool and there was a brisk breeze astir. When we reached our destination the weather had moderated considerably and we found it very pleasant. Here we formed a line and passed by Washington's tomb. We then looked over the barns and stables and began to investigate the wonderful captivating old mansion. We were first conducted to the kitchen, which is set apart from the rest of the house. Here we were very much interested in the crude utensils and furnishings. The quaint old-fashioned rooms seemed to reveallthe tales of their past glories. Having visited all of the rooms, we walked about the beautiful grounds.until it was time for our car to leave for Alexandria, our route taking us through the acres originally owned by George Washing- ton. Upon reaching our destination we visited Christ Church and wandered about the old grave yard where we found many peculiar inscriptions written upon the stones. We left here shortly after one in the afternoon for Arling- ton, where we visited the Custis-Lee mansion and the cemetery in which we saw the most of the battleship Maine, which has recently been raised and 541 Q located near the graves of many soldiers and sailors who lost their lives in its disaster. Upon returning to Washington we saw Congress in session. This was truly a very interesting sight. There was a striking contrast between the disorder of the House, the listlessness of the Senate and the dignity which predominated in the Supreme Court. Wednesday was very disagreeable on account of the rain. We first visit- ed the Post Office and then went to the Navy Yard, which was wonderfully interesting. We employed a guide who conducted us through the various buildings explaining things of interest. Here we found many men busily engaged in the manufacture of large guns and their equipment. VVe visited the President's yacht also and were entertained by his Victrola. The weather compelled us to stay in for the rest of the day and at seven-thirty that ever- ing we left for Philadelphia, arriving there at eleven o'clock. VVe spent only one day in the City of Brotherly Love and this did not favor us with fair weather. Despite the fact that it threatened rain we started out early, going to the Curtis Publishing Coinpany's building. This large edifice was devoted solely to the public-ition of The Ladies Home Journalf' The Saturday 'Evening Post, :ind The Country Gentleman. The various reception rooms and dining halls render this inost attractive. YVe visited Independence Hall and the old Capitol next. These buildings were very interesting. VVe were all enthusiastic over the old Liberty Bell. From here we went to the old home of Betsey Ross. This qu-nnt old place we found as fascinating as we had anticipated. WVe then took .an auto sight- seeing trip through the city, stopping at the mint and being left at the VVan- namaker store. Philadelphia was interesting because of its rel-ition to old colonial times. In the afternoon we visited the Navy Yard, where we were shown through several battleships. To see the sailors during their school hour was quite an amusing sight for they did not appear to be very diligent pupils, while visitors were around at least. We left here at nine o'clock, find- ing our journey home less tedious than our starting out had been. This was probably due to the fact that we were on a sleeper and when we awoke the sun was just above tlfe horizon. We arrived at Rochester at ten oiclock Friday morning. Our trip was truly one which will be remembered by all of us for a very long time. RUTH J. GENTLES. At Vvashington, Gertrude Slutherland to Harold Fetter- My, but my feet are tired! Don't your feet ever get tired? Fetter- No, I have very strong feet. 55 I - I 1.fv'1a--I l PREPARATION FOR A VAFATION After I came from Dr. Uadys, the dentist, I went to the jewelry store to get a Rogers tablespoon and a Ring. I met a girl on the street singing, Hurrah for the Flaggf' as I went past Stanley's lunch where I saw a Welch person who had a Fetter on his leg. I hurried on to get my Allenfs foot ease for our vacation Tripp. Just before I got to tl1e drug store I .saw Sutherland talking in a Gentle way to a reporter who appeared to be a mere Ladd. I obtained the rest of my neces- sities including a gas Leiter and went home, packed my trunk and sent it to the sea shore by Adams express. I put on my suit which the Taylor had delivered and getting in my Everett car drove to Rollins, Michigan, where I put up at the Gridley House over night. The next morning the weather was Sharp, as it was in June and the Dlafyj bels were just in bloom. We were up the next morning with the Rising of the sun and after Dugfganj some bait went fishing for fSjtroup. Dimoclc could not catch any fish because he had no Corke. These fish are fine eating when Dunn but we should have a Hart and look for Rubyfs in- stead of fish. It' you should happen to find a True one Sark-ett it is worth a. Hill of gold. There was a l'hapman piano in the cottage which looked as though some one had Stanzpfezlj on it because of the Hammer marks. The Jinks was surely in it. VVe returned home the next day and our flnstle looked good to me. . J. B. L. FAMOUS DATES OF 191-14.

C. I was one of those lucky individuals who happened to go with the Spencer- port party and it seems selfish not to tell about some of the funny incidents which happened. I can't take time and room to tell about all the humorous things but will only narrate a few of the events that occurred one night in VVashington and one night in Philadelphia. It was about five o'clock in the afternoon when our crowd reached the National Hotel, our boarding place while in Washington. The lobby was packed with people waiting for supper, or rather dinner as the Southerners term it. I elbowed my way through the crowd and ascended the stairs to the sec- ond floor where I beheld groups of two and three hurrying along the corri- dors. Everyone seemed to be in haste except the negro porters, who stood around looking innocently on. I guess they never do hurry very much, at least I didn't see -any of them run very fast while I was in Washington, but I did hear that one of them made a pretty quick dodge one night when Good- ridge threw a cake of soap at him. I reached my room, or rather our room, for only six of us Spencerport fellows and six Webster fellows roomed together. Some of my roommates had already finished prinking and were waiting for the rest of the crowd, for generally we went to meals together. I had just finished combing my hair when a soft melodious voice floated through the transom: Last call fo' dinnah, sah. The crowd bolted. When we arrived in the corridor leading to the dining room we had to fall in line and wait our turn for there was just a mob of people ahead of us. The crowd slowly moved forward and as we neared the entrance I heard one of the waiters yell, Room for two more heah. You can just het I was be- ginning to get hungry and as I turned around to see where the other fel- lows were somebody's big foot came down with a dull thump upon one of mine. I gave a look at the individual with the large feet, showed my teeth and barked, at which one of the porters shouted, Hey, yoh, take dat dog out ah heah, sah. I remained silent until we reached a table and then looked around to see what kind of a waiter we had. We didn't pay much attention to which table we sat down at this night, only that we were careful 4 57 Q F not to get the table we had the preceeding evening for some how or other all the lump sugar had disappeared when we made our exit. I think the fellows used it to make punch. When I saw our waiter I gave one gasp, for he was the same one who had spilt some soup down the neck of one of our party a couple df days previously. We decided to make the best of the situation and began looking over the menu. Leave it to me, sah, all yoh gentlemen, ah done fix yoh up, all right, yes sah. I'll take a lamb chop, remarked Ladd. No, no, replied the waiter, angrily, leave it to me sah, I'se a gwine to give yoh all a good, dinnah, sah, we been used to bein' wid ladies and gentlemen, we Southern waitahs has, an' we know sumthin', yes sah. There wasn't any use arguing with him so we let him have his way. It was plain that he had been out to one of the cafes before dinner. The details of the dinner I'won't mention, but will only say that the waiter did so much talking about himself that we had hard work to keep from laughing. For an end up Ladd threw a penny into a plate as we were leaving, and the waiter, as a result of his earlier imbibings, thought it was a quarter. Thank you, sah. VVhat he said at second sight I didn't want to hear. We would have given him a larger tip but we didn't want to cause a shortage of waiters. We reached our room and there a general inquiry was made concern- ing what we were to do that evening. Some were going to the theatre, some to the Congressional Library, and some to the cake walk to be held by the Colored employees in the dance hall of the hotel. After much discussion the party broke up and I strayed out into the corridor where I was hailed by another member of our crowd, Stettner, I believe was his name. Where are you going? he asked. No wheres in particular. Have you heard the news P Noi - ' Q Cady, my room-mate, is quite ill and I am afraid he is coming down with the measles. For goodness sake, where did he catch the measles? I don't know, replied Stettner, scratching his head, unless he caught them from the Webster Party. I thought this altogether likely for one of the Webster girls had been taken to a hospital with measles a few days before. Ding-a-ling, interrupted the telephone. Herbert Rogers, who was in the room at the time writing letters, answered it. 1 58 Yes, this is room 33. There followed a long pause, and, wondering what the trouble was, I walked back and peeked in the door. Rogers stood at the telephone grinning with all his might. Is this Violette ?--No ?-Oh! yes, I'll go right out and 'catch 'em.' It seems that one of the Webster girls called up to inquire after Ketchum to tell him that his cousin had the measles. Stettner becoming worried, made a hurried departure to find out how Cady was and I put on my hat and started for the street. Half way down the corridor I saw a group of young people, and as I approached them a familiar voice reached my ear. Miss Ring, I would like to have you meet my friend, Mr. Adams. A low bow and a few giggles from the other two girls. The fellow .vho was doing the introducing was blushing intensely. Miss Sutherland, Mr. Johnson. I looked on in wonder, for I saw only one man being introduced and I was more astonished when I again heard the same familiar voice. Miss Stettner, Mr.-Mr.-Oh-Smith. It seems that Donahue, whom I now recognized, was getting one of the VVebster Party, Foster by name, acquainted with the Spencerport girls and had forgotten the fellow's name at the time of introduction. The evening sped on and I reached our room about eleven or perhaps a trifie later. Everyone was in bed. I mean two were in bed, and the others were asleep on those double decked affairs. I don't know what you would call themg they were a frame work structure with a set of springs stretched across the top and another set across the bottom about four inches from the floor. One tourist slept on the lower deck while another made unsuccessful efforts to sleep on the top story and not roll oif. Im- agine the accommodations! One of the Webster sightseers, whom I missed, entered the room soon. I asked him if he knew what we could do with the fellows, for it seemed a shame to have them sleep so well. Looking through the wardrobe I found a bottle of ink with which I painted some of the sleepers' faces and now and then a foot which protruded far beyond the frame work structure. They certainly were some sight by the time I got through. You would have thought they surely had the black measles. Ketchum, my Webster assistant, in the meanwhile had been busy. He had set all the watches ahead one hour and then gathered near his berth all the shoes he could find. I did like- wise and he snapped off the electric light. A second passed, then a smuggled cry from Ketchum. Turning on the light I saw him taking the wash bowl from under the sheets. After thoroughly examining his bunk We 59 again turned in. Donahue, who was sleeping in a lower berth next to mine, was snoring so loudly that I was afraid he would wake the crowd before the desired time. I reached for a suit ease and placed it on Donahue's chest. I reasoned that this would diminish the expansion of the chest, there- by allowing less air to be circulated through the mouth and nose, and thus cause a decrease in the loud noise. My experiment was unsuccessful, for Donahue turned over and the suit case crashed to the floor. I waited hreathlessly and then gave Ketchum the signal to start throwing the shoes at the door. An instant of silence. Then a loud sinash. Ketchum had uiiscalculated and hit the water pitcher. Startled, sleepy utterances came from the double deckers. What happened? Turn on the lightin VVho's hurt? Finally quiet again reigned and the only thing that happened during the remainder of the night was a cat fight. It didn't bother me but it annoyed the rest of the people in the immediate vicinity. Thus the night was, at VVashington, now for Philadelphia. I We reached the Quaker City about 11 o'clock P. M., and were taken to the Continental Hotel in autos. It was a very' large hotel and much different from the National Hotel at Washington. Its numerous stair- ways are enough to mix up any one and I certainly got mixed up before I got out of there. VVe were assigned our rooms and I started in search of mine, and with the aid of another fellow found the place. Six of us Spencerport fellows were to room together and We were to have real beds. Goodness, how delightful we were! After getting located, Ladd and I started down stairs in search of something to eat. The hotel's lunch counter being closed for the night, we went down street to a restaurant. Having taken a short sight-seeing trip through the streets we started back with half of a cake for our room-mates. VVhen we-reached the hotel we made directly for our room, and after we had walked up about five sets of stairs to the third story I stopped and pulled out my note book. It was just as I thought, I hadn't written the number down. What's the rnatter?', Ladd asked. Oh, nothing, except that I have forgotten the number of our room. Do you know what number it is P Why, no, but I think it is number four hundred and somethingg let us see if we can find it. VVe walked and walked but our room was always around the next corner. Finally I gave up. It's no use, I'll have to go down and find out where our room is. 60 I left Ladd with the cake and started down stairs. I had an awful time getting down to the lobby because of so many stairways which didn't seem to lead anywhere. Finally I reached the ground floor and found the clerk. Will you please tell me which is my room and how I can find it? Name, please? I told him my name, that I had got separated from the rest and forgotten the number of the room. He looked on the books. Room -150, fourth floor. Porter, show this gentleman to his room. Number -1-50. I took the elevator this time and got there all right. Ladd mean- while had thought of the number and reached the room ahead of me. It now being after 2 o'cloek we made preparation for bed. Suddenly an idea struck me and I set about to carry it out. Come on here, get up, I shouted, shaking one of the sleepers by the arm, it's morning. Get out, let me alone, will you ? VVhat's the matter with you fellows, anyhow? inquired Allen, sit- ting up in bed. Can't you let anyone sleep? 'iQuit,', yelled Rogers, as he made a swing at me with his left arm. Oh! O11 ! groaned Donahue, when he tried to kick me and hit the bedpost with his foot. I went the rounds the second time but they didn't comply with my request until I told them there was a cake on the stand. VVhereupon there was a grand rush for it. The cake devoured, they all got back into bed except Donahue, who didn't seem so sleepy as the rest. Seeing at once that he thought it was really time to get up I whispered to the others to help the joke along. Immediately there followed a variety of inquiries. W'here's my shoes? shouted Allen. VVho hid my suitcase? Meanwhile Donahue washed, combed his hair and completely dressed. Seeing that the joke was working so well, I got dressed again. Donahue was in the best of spirits and began imitating the negro dialect. Hey, Potah, send up a bath to dis heah room. Yas, sah, right away. sah. Last call foh breakfast, sahf' To keep from laughing aloud I had to get behind the coat rack. Donahue didnit pay much attention to me, for he was busy brushing his coat and pulling down his cuffs. It was only 3 o'clock, so I set my watch to 7, and having helped Donahue to put a stick pin in his tie, took him by the arm and started down stairs to the tune of the snorts and grunts of the others who were struggling to keep from laughing. Going down the stairs I heard steam escaping or some similar noise. 61 Do you hear them getting breakfast? I inquired of my companion. Yes, but it don't smell very good. , I guess he wasn't very hungry. After walking down eight or so short sets of stairs we arrived in the lobby where the porters were scrub- bing the floor with soap suds. This was the odor of breakfast that Dona- hue scented. I marched my victim around the hotel for awhile but was careful not to go near the dining room. This getting monotonous, I led my companion back up to our room, explaining that we would pull the others out of bed if they hadn't already got up. Donahue, still believing that it was 7 o'clock, started in getting the fellows up. He succeeded in pulling some out but when he came to Rogers there were a few angry cxclamations. Rogers evidently was sleepy and didn't want to get up just yet. I couldn't blame him and thinking that the joke had gone far enough, explained to Donahue that he had been greatly deceived. He was some surprised when he found out the real time of day and declared he wasn't a bit sleepy. You fellows won't sleep any more to-night, not if I know it, he shouted. The rest of the group gave him the laugh and went to bed. He found a book on Vlloman Suffrage and read aloud, but Ile either got sleepy or else the book didn't agree with his views, for he soon turned in. Under the prevailing stillness it was but a short time before all were lost in peaceful slumber. FETTER. Leonard Allen on his way to VVashington asked Mr. Stroup for per- mission to be assistant chaperon. Mr. Stroup said, Yes. n In a few minutes Leonard was leaning out of the car window, waving his hands and shouting: Here, Allen, you have got to be more dignified than that, said Mr. Stroup.
