Another year has elapsed and the mild, pleasant weather of spring ushers in that gala occasion-Com- mencement day. This year the largest class which has ever graduated from this school will pass out into the rapidly increasing ranks of Alumni. Al- most seventy Seniors will receive the coveted Diploma and sever, as students, their relations with the school. Out of the Freshman Class of four years ago about fifty-five remain to graduate. This group, aug- f .a.a.sgf1chf -aim viii ng? if? ,g1a245 mented by incoming students from other schools, comprises this year's class. Our class has been in school during the period of its greatest growth. The student body of about two hundred in 1921 has increased to nearly three hundred. In those brief four years new organizations have been started, class affairs have been instituted, and existing organ- izations not up to standard have ceased to funciton. This rapid growth is a credit to the administration and to the patrons of the school whose co-operation and foresight have made it possible. It is certain that none of the class will cease to cherish the memories of these eventful years. During the greater part of the nineteenth century the educational system of this country was in its early stages of development. The number of high schools and students was ridiculously low as compared to present day figures. Few people ever received a high school educa- tion and, consequently, such an education was not considered at all necessary. A person completing the eighth grade was thought very well educated. Higher institutions were comparatively few and very poorly attended. Since then, the educational system has grown by leaps and bounds. During the last forty years the number of high school students has prac- tically doubled every decade. Universities, colleges and technical schools have shown a corresponding increase. A high school education is now considered most essential. A person denying himself a high school education goes out into the world poorly equipped. He lacks an important weapon in his efforts for success. ' . Just what distinguishing characteristic should a high school grad- uate possess? He should be prepared for citizenship. If he forgets all of the facts and statistics learned at school or if he fails to apply his knowledge to better his position in life, his attendance in high school has been justified if he has learned his place, his responsibility and his duty in this democracy of ours. In this age of political corruption and partisan strife, clear-sighted, unpredjudiced citizens and voters are needed. The only method of abolishing political corruption is the ex- pression of public opinion in the ballots cast at each election. The future of this nation, depends, therefore, on the character and ideals of the youth of today who are the voters of tomorrow. That the gradu- ates of high schools possess the capability for worthwhile citizenship may be expected by the patrons of the school. Citizenship has always received great stress in this school, especi- ally in recent years. Due to the foresight of the class of 1922, a suit- able reward is made each year to the senior, adjudged the best citizen in his class during his four years in school, and this has been an added incentive to the students. Standards set by previous classes have been high. It Is reasonable to expect succeeding classes to sustain those standards. -Lester Barnes gs:a n.sggmhf1fi1if1f n3zg,gfffgg1q242 X Qa.m.sgEwehf limi ff-is ngt 1? 39243 BOARD OF EDUCATION ilu.-ln Carl R.

Ypsilanti, Milan, Michigan.--Com- mercial. Thomas H. Finley, who for six years and a half guided the destinies of the S. T. H. S., left us at the close of the first semester of this year. He resigned his position here to enter the Austin High School in Chicago, where greater opportuni- ties for advancement awaited him. When Mr. Finley came here, Sullivan High School was in its infancy. During his administration it has grown until it now holds a coveted place among the institutions of its kind in the state, with its production of clean athletes, capable stu- dents, and valuable citizens, Sullivan High School has estab- lished a reputation of which any community might well be proud, As an instructor, his patience, knowledge, and smiling countenance soon put his students at ease. The very atmos- phere of his class room was such as to encourage moral refine- ment, it possessed a sunny climate in which meanness and vulgarity could not enter. An hour spent there was an hour filled with interest. He constantly kept before the students of the school the high ideals so necessary for useful citizenship. His moral code was based on the golden rulen and its corollary do right. EH.1n.sErj,ahf sflirgfmis ng ff 15 2 4 2 N 6,15 iN,1 V L : h 1 j .EES big QE so Maia?

High School Journalists from all over the state gathered three hundred strong for the Convention . Delegates from eighty schools were pres- ent. Sullivan High School was represented by the Editor-in-Chief and Business Manager of this year's Retrospect. An extensive program was carried out, featured by an inspection tour through the Publishing Plant of the Daily Illini, the Convention picture, printed on the following day in the Daily Illini, and a trip to the Illinois Memorial Stadium. The Retrospect holds an active membership in the association and is one of the progressive publications which have sought improvement through the attendance of delegates at the Conventions. Several tricks of the trade were learned at this meeting and many ideas gained which influence to some extent the quality and make-up of this book. -Lester Barnes. Qa.1n.sgEggehf sf1irrfmp.gifffgeg1q-z 45 Wcnmorica One afternoon, while rumaging about in the attic, I ca.me across a chest filled with miscellaneous articles of value. Conspicuous among the varied contents was a Diary which I had kept some years before while teaching. As I looked casually through it, my glance focused upon a number of entries, which recalled pleasant memories of my high school days and former classmates. My interest was thoroughly aroused and, brushing the dust from the cover. I glanced eagerly at the first page. July 1. 1935: When I entered the Public Library this evening there sat Miss Ferne Garrett in the chair Miss Jennings has occupied so long. Ferne is a graduate librarian, and is Well fitted for the posi- tion. July 4, 1935: Fourth of July. Huge celebration. Sullivan out did itself today. Speeches by our most distinguished citizens. Mayor Otis Davis gave a brilliant and flowery oration on The Declaration of In- dependence-Its Use and Abuse. ' Aug. 20, 1935: Everyone is Whistling, singing, or shouting Oh, Them Lovey, Lovesick Blues , written by that famous popular song writer, Cecil Creath. Aug. 31, 1935: Went in the First National Bank today, and no one but Mr. Charles Abrams cashed my check. I never dreamed of seeing him a cashier. Miss Eva Behen has recently accepted a position as stenographer in the bank, While Valeet Carnine is private secretary to Mr. Harry Hill, president of a huge Steel Corporation of Chicago. Sept. 3, 1935: School began. Among the faculty of the S. T. H. S. is Doris Carter, who teaches gym and music. If pep and enthusiasm accomplish anything, Doris will certainly be a success. Lauren Hamm is the coach, and there is good reason to hope for a brilliant season. Mr. Everett Worsham is civics and history teacher, and at last repents the torments he caused Miss Hobbs. Oct. 2, 1935: Met Mr. Lester Barnes while walking in the park today. It seems he has become a naturalist. He was carrying a spy glass, miscroscope, and a butterfly net. Oct. 30, 1935: Went to the Opal Andres beauty parlor to get my hair shampooed today. Miss Vera Freeman is hairdresser. Nov. 8, 1935: Took my hat to the milliner's to have it retrimmed. Had needed it badly for some Weeks. The Misses Bertha Appelt and Mildred Kuster have charge of the shop now and Miss Zelma Crist superintends the trimming department. Nov. 15, 1935: For some reason my car refused to run this morn- ing. I tinkered with it for about an hour, but could find nothing Wrong. Called Cole Brother's garage and had them fix it. They brought it back in an hour. How's that for snappy service? Nov. 24, 1935: Saw Mildred Powell today for the first time in years. Said she has to stay home so much with her parents that she f .H.I1.S51Efi6hr flirt 15059 ggi' 13? gl'924f doesn't get out much. She told me that her cousin, Louise Cornwell, is now married and lives on one of the largest wheat farms in Kansas. Nov. 30, 1935: My neighbor, formerly Miss Dorothy Lee, rode up town with me this morning. She was taking her smallest child to the Day Nursery managed by the Misses Opal Purvis and Ferne Ashbrook. Dorothy said she would never think of leaving her children there, were anyone else in charge. Dec. 11, 1935: Saw a great vaudeville this evening. One of the features was The Gold Dust Twins , Miss Alta Frederick and Mabel Blackwell. They gave a dance, a queer, Oriental kind, very interesting and pretty. Then I received the shock of my life-Miss Gladys Young was received with great favor by the audience as Gladys oi the Silver Wire , and she did a toe dance on a tight Wire far, far above the heads of the people. Her grace and beauty are remarkable. The audience went wild. Phillip Floyd also made a hit as the Jazzical Clown. Dec. 13, 1935: My old chum, Olive Elder, who is one of the most able Home Advisors in Illinois, and I, went to Decatur to do our Christ- mas shopping today. Saw Miss Laverne Chaney, a graduate nurse. She is working at the St. Mary's Hospital now. Said Daisy Burtcheard also has a case there. We returned on the 9:45. Kyle Wiard now oc- cupies the engineer's cab of that locomotive. In all his five years' ex- perience he has never had an accident nor has his train been delayed, except by washouts or snowstorms. Dec. 31, 1935: Last day of '35, Heard a wonderful concert over the radio by Miss Marian Harshman, concert pianist, and Miss Phyllis Harshman, American prima donna. Miss Caroline Jennings, president of the Woman's Socialist Party Organization gave a fine lecture on The Woman's Share in Politics. ' Jan. 7, 1936: The first number of the Woman's Political and Domestic Review edited by Miss Genevieve Mautz, arrived today. Contained an article by Olin Kull, America's greatest transcendentalist. He explained in his article how one might obtain complete freedom from the common drudgery of life so as to give leisure for mental de- velopment. There was also a charming bedtime story by The Chil- dren's Favorite, Otha Mills. He is famous over the entire world for his stories written in a way children can understand, and about things dear to children's hearts. Jan. 11, 1936: My teeth bothered me today. I went to Dr. Gladys Darst, one of the most successful women dentists in the state. Jan. 28, 1936: In a contest held recently in Chicago, Miss Kath- eryn Doner was chosen the most charming red-haired girl. Feb. 1, 1936: Saw a good show at the theater tonight. Gladys Moore, leading comedienne of the Screen, sometimes called Mary II played in When a Fella Needs a Friend. The scenario was written by Catherine Robinson, who has made a small fortune in her work. Feb. 10, 1936: The florist, Clarence Engle, moved his down-town headquarters into the room formerly occupied by the Rhodes and Mur- ray Woman's Barber Shop. ' f .s.m.sgi,chf flirt fain ngfi? gsm? Feb. 21, 1936: Noble Ellis, Radical and Extremist, was arrested last evening for preaching insurrection against the government. It seems that since Mr. Ellis was defeated for Justice of the Peace, he has turned Radical, and by overthrowing the government, hopes to oust his rival from oflice. March 17, 1936: Saw an interesting cartoon in the paper today by Charles Shuman commemorating the fight in which Francis Purvis was proved to be the world's champion heavyweight. March 25, 1936: Took my dress to the Mary Warner Dress Mak- ing Establishment. I like their service, and the dresses designed by Miss Opal Rauch, Who has charge of this department, are more than worth the price. March 30, 1936: Learned today that Lee Roughton, who has amassed a huge fortune from his invention of an electric egg-beater, has returned with his wife, formerly Miss Blanche Newbould, from his third trip across the Atlantic. April 5, 1936: I had a pleasant little talk today with Miss Helen Estes, who clerks in Schultz's Five and Ten . We were talking over old times, and she told me that her sister, Edna, has at last settled down. She was married last month to a Wealthy Oklahoma oil man. Said she saw Aimee Thackwell in The Taming of the Shrew . Madeline Weav- er is singing in operas, having made her debut in Carmen last year in Italy.

Raymond is Sul1ivan's leading undertaker. Nov. 2, 1936: Claudia Ledbetter, after a stirring campaign, Was elected Congresswoman-at-large on the Socialist ticket. Miss Daisy Yarnell, running on the Democratic ticket, was her strongest opponent. These notes brought back to me many happy memories of the Class of '24 of the S. T. H. S. I thought of how We had all graduated and gone out into the world, to success or failure, and it was with a sigh of regret that I closed the book and replaced it in the ancient trunk.

The audience was very much pleased with the performance, and when, on account of the weather, it was given over again, some thought it was such a success that they attended it the second time. The play was a three act comedy, and the audience was kept laughing from be- ginning to end. Samuel Hagerman took the part of a city lawyer, and although he was mistaken for the returned Jimmie, he, in the end Won a law case, the gratitude of a Whole family, and the love of Allie Thomas, the pretty young school teacher. Marian Baker played the part of the teacher, and her roll was charmingly played throughout. Mrs. Brooks who rented the Coolbrook farm was a blind lady, and surely no one else could have played this part as well as did Evelyn Keen. Ruth Tabor took the part of Mrs. Brooks' daughter Lucille, and she was of a very shy and winning nature, at least Chesterfield Mc- g.a.a.sg3,ehf sfriiffm p.gff5gQq245 Swope thought so. Ivan Wood played the part of Chesterfield. He was a friend of Val's, and his witty remarks and comic actions were a source of much amusement in the play. Peggy Sommers was a sixteen year old neighbor of Mrs. Brooks'. She was very coquettish, and completely won the admiration of Danny Banks, another neighbor of Mrs. Brooks'. Lorene Behen and William Bland played these parts to the satisfaction of all present. George Pierce or Clive Rhodes was a country lawyer, and presi- dent of the school board with a hankering after the notice of Allie Thomas. Val defeated him both in his tricks in law practice, and with Allie, much to the delight of the onlookers. Melinda Preston was the old maid in the play. Lottie Ballinger played this part, and she furnished much amusement to the audience by her actions and comical appearance. Just before the last act, Miss Edmiston was presented with a beautiful bouquet of roses, by Marian Baker in behalf of the play cast, as a token of appreciation for her work in coaching the play. Between acts a group of six junior girls gave two musical selec- tions, and the orchestra played several pieces. -Lottie Ballinger '25, lllltpior-'Terrier 'Mwnqjircl' T The J unior-Senior banquet was a great success. Every thing was Japanese in character. The decorations consisted of Japanese tokens, the toasts were on Japanese subjects, and Japanese songs were sung. Needless to say all enjoyed themselves immensely. The gymnasium was converted into a typical Japanese cafe for the event. It was decorated to perfection. The classes' colors were every where visible, with an occasional Japanese fan or umbrella peering through, and light was furnished by Japanese lanterns. Large vases of beautiful blue and lavender sweet peas were placed here and there on the tables, while pretty little nut baskets and artistic place cards were stationed at each plate. There was an abundance of food, and fine enough for a king. Ice cream and cake were served, representing the classes' colors, and each piece of cake bore a little fan or umbrella, as favors. That nothing might be left out, popular music was furnished by the orchestra, while Mabel Hollace gave a graceful little dance between courses. After the banquet proper, the entertainment began, Marion Baker, the Junior president acting as toast mistress. The Japanese effect was further carried out in the toasts. Mr. Brown treated the subject of Q .a.I1.ssgEggahf lglillll'-U33 QE 1? 3519245 The Fujiyma or The Key Note and ended his talk by striking the key note, which might be accepted in our land. Other interesting toasts were given by: Helen Keyes ........................ The Land of the Rising Sun Paul Leach ....... . The Seven Gods of Wealth Miss Bach ......... .... ' 'Cherry Blossom Time Everett Worsham ...............................,.. Shintoism Lottie Ballinger .............................. The Unseen Land Lorene Behen sang a solo, entitled Blossom Time in Old Japan . This ended the program given in the gymnasium. The students were then forced to return from the wonderful land of Japan. But this was not the end. A program followed in the auditorium consisting of a play called Blinks and Jinks , a song by a quartet, Japanese Sailor Man , a pantomime, And the Light Went Out , and another play entitled, The Mock Commencement . -Paul Leach '25 1-.Q...-.

The gridiron season of 1923 was not a success from the stand point of victories. Although Coach Raymer put forth his best efforts he was unable to produce a winning team. Probably at no time in the past history has the Sullivan High School football squad had such a collec- tion of beef, Heavy men are an advantage to a football team if prop- erly educated in football tactics. But the number of big men with little or no training was somewhat of a handicap to the past season's eleven, as Coach Raymer was not able to mold into players so many heavy weights in such a short time. Many of the members of the team had had some experience but could not by any means be termed as veterans. Along with these players of some experience appeared several squad members who for their first time played on the gridiron. Injuries early in the season lost some valuable material. Cooley, Taylor and Roughton were lost at the beginning and some of the best players carried bad injuries through-out the season. In Kull, Hill, Freeman, and Francis Purvis a good type of consis- tent players was found. Although this was Kull's first year in the handling of the pigskin he proved before the end of the season his abil- ity as a player. Kenneth Purvis and Bradley both fought their first grid battles this year for the red and black and showed some flashes of high class football. With the material that is left for the next season and with the ex- perience that was received this year Sullivan should prove herself as good again on the gridiron as she has been in past years.

Coach Johnson was handicapped much throughout the entire year by injuries, new men and the necessity of shifting men from one position to another. While Sullivan did not suffer any overwhelming defeats it was not able to produce a winning team. Many new men were broken in this year and with the supply that is coming to us in the Freshman class we should be able to add to the collection on the south wall next season. Wonllriz 'gonnly 'lhnis-kzllvall 'qomsrnamepl' The second annual basket ball tournament of Moultrie County was held January 26 and 27. Windsor again carried off the shield by de- feating Sullivan, in the first game, by a score of 25 to 15 and in the sec- ond game defeating Lovington, which entitled them to the shield. Wind- sor had a fast and well organized five and played high-class ball in both games. Lovington defeated Arthur by a score of 24 to 8 and showed some speedy ball. This victory entitled Lovington to meet Windsor to de- cide the championship but they were unable to make as good a showing against Windsor as they had in the previous game. Sullivan met Arthur in a consolation game for third and fourth places and defeated the Arthur five by a score of 30 to 3. The Moultrie County Basketball tournaments have both been a great success. They were well attended and much interest was shown in them. Sullivan has not yet captured the championship but no doubt with the material she has for next year she will be able to give the other schools a closer race than they have had in the past.

The amount of interest, the class of ball, and the number of teams have been steadily increasing. Up until this vem-. hnwever, the League Tournament had been pri- marily a high school aifair. This year the grade school was one of the contestants and carried 0E first place. There was much high class ball played at times, in the tournament. Quick For the past two or three years there has been a growing demand for some spring sport, and track has been the most favored of them all. Two years ago the first effort was made to produce a track team and some very good results were obtained. Last year the interest seemed to die down again, but it was revived this year. While there has been no exceptional work done so far in track, there are some good prospects and with the County meet the interest should increase. Some good distance runners are showing up and no doubt by next year they will be able to place their Alma-Mater at the head of the list again.

For the first time in the history of Sullivan's high schools a type of student government was introduced in the form of a Student Council. The Civics Club of 1922-23 deserves most of the credit for formulating the idea and constructing the constitution. This constitution after being approved by the prin- cipal, was ratified by the students and went into effect at the beginning of the last semester of the year. The representatives were elected in accordance with the constitu- tion which provides for three representatives to be elected from each class. one from each literary society, two from the faculty and one from the athletic team. This clause also states that there must be a repre- sentative of each sex from bodies sending two or more members. The members of the body, who are chosen for one semester only and who must have a certain scholastic standing, elect their own officers. The Council is composed of eighteen members and the principal, who is an ex-oflicio member holding the power of absolute veto over all of the Council's acts. The Council has the power to manage various school enterprises but cannot interfere with the work of any other organiza- tion in the school. Neither has the Council any control over the discip- line or management of the school but it can recommend measures to the faculty or school board. Last year the Council was faced by a severe test. It was a new or- ganization, there were no previous examples to follow, and by its suc- cess or failure, the students would judge the body. Although nothing of great importance was achieved, the Council proved its ability and worth. It planned and carried through the various details of decora- tion, seating arrangement and other minor matters relating to the Moultrie County Tournament held in the S. T. H. S. gym. The Council also passed rulings relating to the election of captains by the athletic teams and organized the movement to secure better sidewalk conditions on the street leading to the school. Although the problems facing the body this year were not so great, it remained for the council to uphold the standards of its predecessor. Probably the most important thing accomplished was the discussion of certain matters relative to the school management and the recommen- dation of changes to be made to the faculty. The Council also efiicient- ly managed the annual Hallowe'en party at the high school. Much of the future life and importance of the Student Council de- pends upon the interest and support given it by the students. The aim of this organization, that of developing better citizens and fostering school spirit, cannotbe, accQmp.1iShBd.k1I11f2SS,the Student body becomes an interested booster rather than a divided group composed of parti- sans and disinterested studentsj 'The 'possibilities forthe Student Coun- cil are great and its future is bright if it receives the proper support.

Marian Harshman played the accompaniment in a very pleasing manner. Music was furnished by the school orchestra, several good selec- tions being rendered. Hortense Myers interested the audience with a reading between acts. As a whole POCAHONTAS was a great suc- cess, thus, adding another to our list of successful Operettas. 'QOMIZQZ 'MBWYE The musical comedy College Days was presented on Thursday evening April 3, by the Music Department of S. T. H. S. in the high school auditorium. The cast was well repaid for their efforts by the large number of appreciative friends that greeted them upon the draw- ing of the curtains. The scenes represented the campus of Brinkdale College. This scene was materially improved by the courtesy of Mr. Shaw, the tiorist, who loaned to us the garden flowers. The operetta opened with much pep due to the cheering and re- sults of the end of a successful base-ball game. There were three love scenes well portrayed by the amateur play- Es.a.ss,lQgehf a:4gififfracp,gfifg1q243 ers. These were between Dot and Davy, Helen and Tubby, and a num- ber of comedy scenes between Baldy and Prexy. Even with the trials of the lovers, the college scandal about the hero, Davy, and the coming of the World War in which he again proved himself a hero, all ended happily, the old scandal having been cleared up before his return.

'glue literary Tocilizsi Four years ago a movement for the establishment of literary so- cieties was instituted in our high school. A constitution was drawn up and presented for discussion and ratification at a mass meeting of the entire school. After much discussion, debate and amendment, this con- stitution Was ratified. It seemed to the members of the Class of '24, who were freshmen then, that all of this was done with enough pomp and ceremony to install a national constitution. For this reason or because the entire school and faculty took great interest in the work, these societies have been outstanding successes. The constitution provided for the equal apportionment of the stu- dents among three different organizations and the selection of a faculty advisor for each by the principal. All societies are governed by the one constitution, which gives each student the privilege of either ac- Eixu,s.esgEQj.shf sf-an fem nrt 155,192 45 fi Orchestra cepting or rejecting the opportunity to take part in literary Work. Mem- bership in the societies is based upon scholarship, attendance at meet- ings, and willingness to participate in programs. The Greek names, Agorian, Aeolian and Thalian, were selected by the advisors and approved by the organizations. Meetings are held once every three weeks on Friday. At these meetings, short programs are given and business discussed. Each society must give a program before the school once each semester. These societies started out with large memberships and have grown steadily ever since until now a large percent of all students do literary work. Efficient ofiicers and interested members are the leading factors which have contributed to the success of our literary societies. The chief purpose of these societies is to create an interest in liter- ary work, to bring about a closer relation between the members of the different classes and to help prepare the member for some of the exi- gencies in life. Music, debate, public speaking, literature and other de- sirable arts are encouraged and cultivated by participation in literary work. These purposes are, to a great measure, being fulfilled and the student who has never been a member of a literary society has missed much of the joy and profit in high school life.

At the school building harrassed committeemen, in fearful apprehension for their so carefully conceived plans, rushed hither and thither, pre- paring for the reception and entertainment of the colorfully attired guests. After a hazardous journey through the dark halls, the guide proceeded to escort his ward down several flights of stairs and at last disposed of him to the entrance manager. This latter named official forced the masquerader to ascend a step-ladder, bumping his head as he reached the summit. Then with a liberal push from the entrance manager he began to slide down the chute. Before his scattered wits could be collected, the astonished fand somewhat dis-composedj victim found himself unceremoniously seated upon the gym floor. The gymnasium was adorned with a multitude of cornstalks and pumpkins. The vast room was lighted entirely by candles and hideous pumpkin faces. Frolicsome clowns, repulsive hoboes, a ghost with glittering eyes, foreigners from almost every civilized country in the world, ladies and gentlemen of the court, blanketed Indians, country dudes and city sports, society folk in evening dress, soldiers and sailors of Uncle Sam-all gathered in one great room. When all of the guests arrived the electric lights were turned on, flooding the room with light. At the command of the photographer everyone sat still and looked pretty while he took a picture of the motley assembly. The high school orchestra took up its station in a latticed enclosureg the judges-Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Finley, and Mrs. Raymer--seated themselves on the raised platform beside the orchestra's enclosure. The masqueraders were divided into groups. As the musicians played a lively march, each group paraded before the judges. In the opinion of the judges, the hoboes-among whom was Mr. Finley-were the best group, and were accordingly awarded the prize, a box of candy. Other prizes were awarded to the best dressed individuals. Following the awarding of the prizes every one unmasked. The remainder of the evening was spent in playing games, and establishing the identity of friends who had not been recognized in their ludicrous costumes. At the signal from the master of ceremonies, a line was formed and as it passed through the kitchen each person was supplied with a cup of steaming cocoa, a sandwich, and a delicious cake. After these deli- cacies had been disposed of, apples and popcorn were .brought in. Then thoughts of homes and beds caused the gay throng to dis- perse. The party had been a grand success-thanks to the Student Council. .H.I1.SSt1iQEQhr'e7iUR1?f1fcFs2i1QLgfiir? 'ilgqlultiwmepil' tot 'gooikihgq 'glwslw 'goo Wadi?

In high spirits they reached the little town in Arizona where travelers bought the necessary provisions just before plunging into that withering realm of heat. Gaily they began the journey across with their lumbering wagon and horses. For the first few days all went well as could be expected under such circumstances, but as the boys were strangers to the desert and unused to saving water their supply of that most needed article was fast diminishing. As the hours dragged on conditions became serious, not to say dangerous, and physical suffering seemed inevitable. Before long it became necessary to relieve the heaving, failing horses of their misery even though the boys saw in their death the probability of their own. On and on they crept over the scorching torrid sands, seemingly deeper and deeper into the heart of the desert and certainly nearer every minute and every second to that dreadful impending thirst. As Paul stood guard one morning unconsciously watching his sleeping companion a wild idea fiashed into his head. What if he should kill Allan, bury him here, take his money and go on alone? No one would know. The idea horrified himg he was shocked at finding himself subject to such a thought, yet it fascinated him. On the next day he found himself again a prey to the temptation and while he could not bring himself to yeild he lacked the power to dismiss it from his mind. For hours he tried to reason with himself: Allan was miserableg there was undoubtedly not enough water for two but for one-there was at least a possibility-and so on until his mind was completely poisoned. At last as the hiding, covering darkness was being lowered over the tumultuously calm scene Paul was overcome. Seizing an empty wooden flask he raised it convulsively over his trusting friend and brought it down on his head with a shuddering blow. All was quiet. Paul had a frantic desire to run, to scream, anything to break that aw- ful accusing stillness. A moment later he was again the demon master of himself and transferring the money-Allan's money-to his own pocket, he fled, promising himself that he would bury the body in the morning-to night it was impossible. There was little sleep for Paul that night even though he was tiredg his heart, his soul, his mind were in a tumult. When the morn- ing came he started, a little doubting himself to the place where he had turned murderer the night before. But as he reached it he saw no signs of either life or death. Not a thing to show that a human being 5 hr 'filiffi 16:35 gg ti? 9 2 4-f had ever been there. He was startled and for a second tried to per- suade himself that he had forgotten, or that it was all a dream, a dread- ful nightmare. Then the truth dawned upon him in all its horror- Allan was not dead, he was gone. Paul wanted to sink into the sand and remain there forever, for a moment he would have given the rest of his life to live over those last fateful twenty-four hours. The next two days were torture. His physical suffering was so completely overshadowed by his mental condition that he hardly no- ticed his thirst. A thousand times he wished himself dead but each ime he crept on fearing. dreading every moment. On the evening of the second day two wagons appeared -crawling like tiny ants along the unbroken stretch of sand-to Paul the most welcome sight imaginable. The short caravan drew up and an invita- tion was extended to Paul to climb into the second wagon. Every one was uncomfortably silent and when the stranger offered to tell -his story, his listeners seemed strangely uninterested. Paul wondered but was too grateful for their charity to question them. Years crept past one by one. Allan's liberal supply of money was wisely invested and brought more than ordinary returns. At thirty Paul had accumulated a small fortune, at forty he was more than wealthy, and at fifty a millionaire. For forty years everything hercame in contact with reminded him of his shame, he was hampered at every turn. He never married for fear of disgracing his family should his deed be uncovered, he lived in constant fear of meeting or hearing of the man whom he had tried to kill, yet trying all the while to persuade himself that he was really dead. He was filled with a deep seated re- morse almost bordering on repentance, but the dread of humiliation, suffering and notoriety always loomed up stranger than his sorrow. Then one day a letter came unsigned in an unfamiliar hand-writ- ing asking that he go immediately to the home of Allan, the old friend of forty years ago. The terrible struggle thatis so often waged be- tween man's better and weaker selves ensued and for the first time since he started west the former came out conqueror. As he entered the house, to others so attractive and so beautiful, he felt almost overpowered with a shrinking, a sickening dread of the scene that must follow and of its outcome. The walls, the furniture, and everything about the room into which he was admitted seemed to smile mockery and contempt. On a bed at one side of the room lay an apparently old man, feeble but still pleas- ant, who smiled and extended a thin white hand to welcome his old friend. Paul saw the hand, but gathering his almost departed courage he murmured a scarcely audible I can't. The invalid looked pained, there was awful silence broken only by the ticking of a clock and the visitor's short hard breathing. Then Allan as if divining the other's thoughts said gently, Paul, I wish we could forget that. I don't hold it against you because I know too well f .aJ.n.esggahf THEIIIII-U7!2l111Q'If if 5gIS2,4f how it was. I was tempted the same way, although perhaps not so strongly as you were. I wanted to say something before--when we were leaving the desert-I was in the first wagon but I was afraid if I spoke then it would only do harm. Perhaps, after-all-it would have been best. There was a pause: then Allan, his voice trembling, con- tinued: And I-I've waited all these years, and now- there were tears in his eyes- Paul, we loved each other so-I-I love you still- . Very very slowly Pau1's hand moved, extended to meet the trem- bling one whose owner joyfully clasped it as he smiled his last faint smile. Both men were free-at last! -Doris Carter '24, id jgfgnrorily To Hunk or not to fiunkg that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous teachers, Or to take arms against a sea of zeros And by studying end them. To pass: to study: No more: and by studying to say we end The zeros, and the thousand flunking grades That we receive. To work: to study: To study: perchance to pass, ay, there's the rub. For in that passing grade what hopes may come When we have struggled through that six week's test, Must give us pause: there's the respect That makes a calamity of so much diligence: For who would bear the whips and scorns of students, The friends taunt, the teacher's wonder: The pang of despised work: the grades' delay: The insolence of trying: and the spurns That patient merit of the flunker takes When he himself might his own record make With a bare ninety. Who would zeros bear To groan and sweat under a constant strain But that the dread of another year of it, That wearisome toil: from whose tolls No student recovers, daunts the will And makes us rather bear those zeros that we have Than pass to others that we know not of? Thus passing grades do make drudges of us all And the native joy of living Is dulled by the necessity of study And pleasures of great pitch of moment With this regard our attentions seek in vain And lose their charm for us. -Bernadyne Shuman '24. 5 .H.1lE1.':SE32Ghr 1TilREfir3is ggi 19 2 4f uiqonsicliwcc 'lgolll Wake 'goilmllrdla 'Qt 'wsu 'dlllli' Jim Starbuck, wealthy automobile dealer in Cleveland, glanced idly thru his morning mail in his luxurious office in the heart of the city. He was a fine looking man of middle age, possibly forty-five, with silvery white hair giving him an odd and yet distinguished ap- pearance. Starbuck had everything that one could wish--the respect of the entire Middle West, fame for the success of his dealings, the highest position on the social ladder, and money to burn. To his num- erous friends, he was a man without enemies although they knew al- most nothing about his life prior to his coming to Cleveland five years before. Most of his mail seemed to be advertisements and these he pushed aside with an air of impatience. Deeper in the pile, a letter caught his eye, evidently no announcement of some new spot-light, or improved tires, or automobile accessories just on the market. Slitting the en- velope he drew forth a piece of white stationery and on unfolding it started noticeably. In the very center of the paper were the words, Where were you on Aug. 4? -nothing more, no headline, no signa- ture. Mr. Starbuck stared at the five words intently, turned the letter over and closely examined the envelope for a possible clue as to the author. But for all he found it might have had none. Well! he exclaimed as he opened a drawer and picked up an envelope, the replica of the one he held in his other hand. This letter had come to him the morning before and its sole message was, Where were you? -its only diierence being in the omission of the date Aug. 4. He had been puzzled to some extent but dismissed the thought by deciding that someone was playing a little trick on him. Nevertheless, it had impressed him enough that he had saved it. And now he com- pared the two letters. The stationery was identical, as was the hand writing. He could make nothing of the few words. Who could have any desire to know where he had been Aug. 4? It was absolutely ridiculous, and with a short laugh he tossed them into his desk. But all through the day the words, Where were you Aug. 4'2 kept run- ning through his mind. By the evening of the second day after this, Starbuck was plainly agitated-noticeably so. It was a general topic of discussion among his friends and associates. It seemed impossible that two days could change a man so much. Lines of care and worry marred the usually calm and handsome face, his eyes had a hunted look and a vacant stare, and his secretary had confided to her chum that his hand had trembled as he put his signature to some letters. He appeared pre- occupied, troubled, and extremely nervous as if awaiting some catas- trophe. Indeed he was a different Jim Starbuck from the one his friends had come to love. .a.m.sggehf lffiiiifufsi nrt ig gw24Z Starbuck alone knew the cause for his troubled mind and tortured nerves, and he could not or would not confide in anyone. Now, instead of two letters in his upper drawer, there were four. One only asked the question, Were you in Ft. Worth? and the following one the same question with the date Aug. 4, 1900? Jim Starbuck had spent two sleepless nights-nights spent in rest- less pacing back and forth, every nerve crying out for rest, and his mind struggling vainly to keep down the thoughts which returned ever and again and each time clung with a more merciless hold on his mind. Yet he could not tell-he could not and he would not. His busi- ness must not suffer-his friends, many of them had found in him an ideal which must not be destroyed. Ft, Worth -a city of terror for him! Aug. 4, 1900 -a date he would never forget! For over twenty years he had tried to dismiss it from his mind and of late he had told himself that he had, but here it was back, all back, with even added terror and horror. It must be im- agination on his part. The idol of the people pulled himself together and betook his weary, nerve-racked body to his office in the hope that he would forget. But Mercy was not with Jim Starbuck that day, for the first thing that greeted his dull eye was a White envelope, only too well known to him. With hands trembling as if with palsy, he hurriedly opened the envelope so sinister to him. This time the message was Do you remem- ber the accident at Ft. Worth, Aug. 4, 1900? Starbuck sank into his chair and covered his face with his hands. No longer could he doubt or bolster himself up with hopes. After twenty long years it was known. Jim Starbuck at twenty-one had been a reckless, carefree, wild youth with plenty of money and no need to Work. Idleness had lain heavily over his hands and he had engaged in practices altogether un- becoming to any boy. But he had paid, as all must pay someday. One night, twenty-three or four years before, driving at a rate of speed and in a way only the drunken can drive, his car hit another bringing death to an entire family. The papers had been filled with the tragic story. Starbuck had escaped-his license number was un- known and he had not been man enough to confess. Through all these years he had carried the load and burden of unconfessed crime-bur- den enough to silver anyone's hair prematurely. Now when miles from the scene of tragedy, he had begun to breath freely, someone, some fiend for revenge, was blackmailing him. A That night he slept the sleep of the utterly exhausted, resolved to unburden his mind the next day. Well for Jim Starbuck that one of his characteristics was delay, for with the morning light came another of the dreaded envelopes. He could scarcely bring himself to open it. Starbuck, expecting only a T .l5i.3E1.9S'E326hr 1fiiEffsfas1gfifg1g245 sentence, stared at the paper in amazement, for on it was written the following letter. Detroit, Mich. Feb. 23, 1924. Mr. James Starbuck Cleveland, Ohio Dear Sir: Were you in Ft. Worth Aug. 4, 1900? ithat awful sentence againlj Had you been there and witnessed or even heard of the terrible auto- mobile accident you would have wished for some safety device for cars. For years people have been in need of safety brakes and just such accidents as the one referred to would have been avoided if there had been such a thing. The Starr Safety Brake Company has just per- fected such a device and your adoption of the same would mean much to both of us. No doubt you think our method of advertising queer, to say the least. We knew that a man in your position would not trifle with or even read an ordinary advertisement. We had to adopt a way, unusual and gripping, that would obtain your interest and hold it. Our short questions were intended to arouse your curiosity for what would follow. We sincerely hope we have been successful to some extent at least. Yours very truly, Starr Safety Brake Company, Per.

Thanks, thanks to the old radio, For the lesson thou hast taught! Thus the coupler is broken And a new one must be bought, Thus to find another station And see what it has brought. -Hal Sona '25, Qmmlpiun Glmll 'Elma 'likmecomibg 'glory It was a wonderful day for Grandpa and Grandma. It was their sixtieth wedding anniversary. For sixty short sunny years they had been together, sharing in all things alike. All the children and grand- children had flocked to the old fold for the great event. John, the prin- ter, had been the first to come, then Kenneth, the banker, Harry, the farmer, Thomas, the doctorg and then Eddie, the same devoted black- sheepg all to be greeted with a motherly kiss from Grandma and a hearty handshake and cheering laugh from Grandpa. Then there were the girls, Molly, Vena, Maggie, and modern, vivacious Annie. Grandpa, after the children had all arrived, had retreated to his 5 .H.E.Sg2Qhr TRN It-Dig ig f ix? 'Z 4f room overlooking the old fashioned rose garden, to hide the tears which had unbidden dimmed his eyes at the memory of bygone years, when with his dear ones gathered about him he had told them bed-time stor- ies, and had tucked the covers about them when prayers were said. Sitting there he reviewed step by step, his advancement from a mere boy to the influential citizen he was today, how his native town had grown from the few scattered log cabins with their sparce rocky fields to the well built little city in the midst of the flourishing country. His meditations were interrupted by a light tapping upon his door. As he dried his eyes the door was cautiously pushed open and Grandma, a happy light shining in her eyes, stepped into the room. Her arms were outstretched. Come- she commanded, her voice vibrant with pent-up feeling. Grandpa took her hands in his and peered down into her eyes, and finding there a perfect understanding, kissed her tenderly and arm in arm, they descended the stairs to their children. The dinner hour was a joyous one. The dinner, the pride of Grandma, of chicken, potatoes, gravy, light-bread, salads, pudding, cake and pie, served to take their memories back to the time when as boys and girls they had surrounded this same old table, talking and joking. Say! here's where I carved my initials with my new knife and Dad licked me with his razor strop, laughed Harry. Well now! you've got my place. Ma! make 'im move ! protested John. If you don't pass me more o' that cake I'll upset the bloomin' table to get some! shouted Kenneth, that shrewd banker. What would the directors have said had they heard him then! Boys shouldn't eat more than three pieces, Ken, rebuked Grand- ma though you could see that she didn't mean it. And Kenneth like an obedient son subsided amid gales of laughter and shouts of Let me whip 'iml and So you will be cute! and That's it Ma l and Give me a piece! and Me too! After the last dish of food had been disposed of, Grandpa and his boys retired to the living room to have their after-dinner cigars and to talk of business, while Grandma, rosy-cheeked and happy, helped the girls with the dish-washing. After a while they joined the men and for a moment all was still. It was a crisp autumn day and darkness was falling upon the earth. To take the chill from the air Grandpa had built a fire upon the hearth and now, as when children at home, they had gathered to hear the stories which in the years of prosperity were not forgotten. Little brother, John Jr., voiced the wish of all when nestled in Grandpa's strong old arms he said coaxingly, Grandpa, tell me a story,-please. What do you wish to hear about, Johnny? asked Grandpa, men- tally reviewing his rapidly diminishing supply of stories. And Johnny, remembering that he was wearing his new 'Injun' suit, promptly re- plied: An Injun story! Qzi.1,n.sg3ehf1fiiEif1-Imqiggf 1521924-f After a moment of speculation as to the best Indian tale he knew Grandpa began: At the top of a small hill and silhouetted against the dark sky, a lone Indian seated on a lank pony, watched a crawling wagon train make its way over the Ohio prairie, and prayed to the Sun God for their blood-reeking scalps. The Indian turned toward the fast setting sun and hurled his tomahawk to the ground. Then again he turned his attention to the hated pale face's train. There were many wagons, perhaps fifteen in all, each drawn by a team of oxen. The white can- vas tops glistened in the sunlight. Men on horseback rode to and fro along the train herding the stock, and stopping occasionally to speak to the drivers. Their guns, held in the crook of the arm, were ready for instant use. Apparently satisfied the savage turned his pony and dis- appeared from sight among the hills. Maria sat cuddled up in one of those white topped wagons looking out over the prairie-thinking. She thought of how but a few weeks before they had been secretly married. His father's wrath had been hard to bear, and now they were on their way to the West-and free- dom. Now, somewhere beside the train her Phil was watching over her. Just as the sun sank the train was stopped and the wagons were arranged in a circle, and the horses were firmly tethered. A great fire was built within the circle and all gathered about it. The men smoked and conversed in low tones of danger of Indian attacks. The women chatted, sang, and made merry, while destruction awaited them in the form of painted, naked, savages, silently surrounding the band and ad- vancing. In camp, the horses trampled nervously and the dogs issued low warning growls. The men felt as if an enemy were slinking in the tall grass. The fire cast a wierd light making and dispelling a thousand shadows, which with the sounds of night seemed to take the form of some great evil. A whoop from a host of yelling shadows rang in the ears of the startled band, and before they recovered from the shock, a hundred gaudy, death-bringing arrows fell in their midst. The band rallied. On ly a few times did the Indians burst forth between the wagons and death seemed near. These were met with lead from the white man's 'fire sticks.' It was in the midst of this battle, with Phil at her side, the shots whizzing, the arrows falling around her, and the mingled whoops of the Indians and the terrified sobs of the women, that little James was born to Maria and Phil. At last after what seemed an eternity, with many of their number dead and with only a few bloody scalps at their belts, the Indians with- I .a.a.sggehf 1faifffufs1gfifg1q245 drew. The remainder of the night was one of terror. The women scremed at everything and the unnerved men fired many useless vol- leys at the shadows. With the coming of the day the little company could see their damage. Some of the wagons were complete wrecks and must be left behind. Bodies of the dead, the blood-stained ground, the wailing of the women and children, all helped to make the scene awful. The dead were reverently buried and as a last salute was fired, the grim men and tearful women started on their way. After their arrival in the Illinois country fthen called the Westl, several days were spent in finding a suitable place for the cabins. The next days were spent in felling the trees for them. The cabin raising of the leader was quite an event, a dance and feast being held on that occasion. After that the other cabins were built and the little town settled down to the life of farming. It was here that I, as James, the boy born in the battle grew to manhood. When Grandpa had finished, the little group trooped silently up the stairs to bed. The next evening after the dear ones had all left, Grandpa again retired to his room to hide the tears, and again when Grandma found him there, they side by side, and arm in arm, descend- ed the stairs in perfect understanding of each other, to their evening meal. -Gloyd M.

'glue 'Pearl tdllrlrliolr There undoubtedly would have been no account written of the clever play that was the latest hit on Broadway had not the promis- ing young author, George Strawn, realized that in order for the exact- ing literary critics to throw bouquets, he must be considered undeniably dead. There was a hush in the spacious, dimly lighted playhouse on Broadway. Then suddenly all was completely dark except for the daz- zling brightness of the foot lights, as they shone against the rich velvet stage curtains. There was a slow, majestic movement of the curtains and the stage was revealed. The play had begun. Would it be a success? The audience sat spellbound. How eagerly they followed as the actors moved about. How anxiously they awaited the development of the plot. Now the mass would clamorously applaud. Now the silence was tense. One spectator, a young man, seated in the velvet draped balcony near the stage, was particularly anxious. No audience could have more breathlessly awaited the success of the hero than the play writer await- ed the success of his first play. At length with a great dramatic climax the play came to an end. The majectic curtains with the same graceful movements, this time, closed the stage from view. There was a hush in the playhouse. The audience stared wonder- ingly. Then the silence was broken by a thunder of applause. As the echo of the last cheer passed away, the mass arose to its feet clamoring lustily, Author! Author! Again there was a hush in the theater. Again the silence was broken, this time, by the preliminary chords of Chopin's Funeral March. As the deep mournful chords of the instrument, touched by a master hand, reached the ears of the waiting crowd, they realized that the play was the work of a dead master. At once the audience came to its feet and stood reverently, with bowed heads, till the final chord was heard and its echo died away in the perfumed air of the playhouse. Then slowly without the accustomed confusion and jostling the audience filed out of the massive theater. Later, when the group of reverent people had completely deserted the playhouse two joyous faced young men stepped arm-in-arm on to Broadway.
