It was a tlny, tl ' 't insignificant place, with narrow, dusty streets, eosy white and green cottages, and proud in- llabitants. The houses huddled close together as if gathering for a t'riendly chat, only separated here and there by vegetable gardens or flower beds. Main Street was a busy little thoroughfare on market days. The little shops 011 each side were crowded with country customers from the neighboring farms, and the farmers' carts rumbled gaily over the eobble stones. HE little village of Uroftvillc hgfgf ' , ' U . The people of this little town usually wore contented smiles, and indeed this pleasant little village was enough to' make its inhabitants contented. Every one knew all a- bout every one else and a stranger, happening to come within the gates, was a. topie of general conversation. The facts about his family, his fi- nances, and his past were discussed by the women over whitewashed fences and by the men at the loung- ing bench in front of the postoffiee. People of Uroftville were very hap- py-go-lueky and indolent. There was always lots of time and no one ever thought of rising before eight o'elock. This town of leisure was noted far and wide for its in- dependent disregard et' time and tide. People, worn out by the noise and rush of the city, came here to regain their strength. There was a peculiar atmosphere of hum-drum monotony that quieted one 's nerves. But once in a while Croftville had a bit of excitement. Sometimes the town would be disturbed by a wed- ding or perhaps some traveling a- gent would come or perhaps a city cousin of Belle Jones would come on a visit and tell the maids of some new styles, for in fact most any- thing Would excite Croftville. One balmy day in early autumn the good people of Croftville were surprised to sec a strange man step eff the train at the small depot. As- tonished eyes watched him curious- ly as he strode up Main Street. Shop-keepers peered out from their doors to get a better view of the tall imposing gentleman. Finally it was agreed that he was one of those city folks. Ile obtained a room at Hotel Parker and each morning l1e set out to stroll up and down the vil- 6 THE MANZANITA lage streets. Then all at once he disappeared, as suddenly and unex- pectedly as he had come. But one week later the train again stopped to let off some strangers. The strange gentleman stepped off, then turned to lift out a tiny girl with brown hair and red cheeks. Then came a tall, manly boy with bundles and boxes, a middle-aged sweet-fae- ed woman with a parrot cage, and last, a very plump black-haired girl of perhaps fourteen summers. Croftville gave one gasp and then began to whisper. Straight through Main Street strode the large man, the family following, up Park Street for a block, and then they halted before a cosy white cottage with an ivy-covered porch and geranium- bordered walk. The next day over the door of a small office on Main Street this sign met the startled eyes of all: Domincus and Son, agents for Gailey Insurance Co. An lnsurance Company! Of all thingslu cried old Miss Jenkins. No one ever happens to have an ac- cident here. VVhatever could have possessed them strangers to lstart a foolish thing like that? Surprises followed in rapid suc- cession. This extraordinary family Cfor so it proved to bel persisted in rising at six o'clock. 'fOhl You lose the best part of tl1e day if you don't, explained Mrs. Domincus in her gentle voice. The oldest girl, Azalia, romped the streets from morn till night with the boys of the neighborhood. She hated school and -always received the poorest marks in her class. No one in Croftville had ever seen such a wild, daring creature. The ladies held up their hands in horror when her latest deeds were reported, and even the men shook their heads doubtfully whenever her name was mentioned. But the boys soon stood in awe of this venturesome girl and there was always a crowd of them at her heels. She kept the neigh- borhood in constant suspense. No one knew what Azalia would do next. ' The merits and peculariti-es of this astonishing family had been discussed pro and con for one whole week when all at once the town's conversation turned into a different channel. This topic had not grown old, there was still volumnes more to be said concerning the Domincus group, but something more amazing than ever happened. For once in its life Croftville rose early one morning. The whole town was a stir at six-thirty and such bustling and such gaiety as the sleepy little villagers witnessed. Main Street was filling rapidly with people at eight o'clock and still more were coming at nine. There was a restless impatient attitude on the part of almost every one. The walks were filled to overflowing and every one was jostling for a place near the curb. The reason for all these unusual proceedings was printed in flaring letters on the bill-board farther down the street. The VVinton-VVesley Animal Cir- cus was coming to town. The mar- velous descriptions of trained ani- mals came next and at the bottom the excited village read these words: HSee Tiny Tad-the mirth pro- voking Baby Clown-and split your sides with laughter! Croftville had sufficient cause to be excited for this was the first cir- cus in eight years. A crowd of THE MANZANITA 7 eager boys had met the train early that morning and had watched the fascinating performance of unpack- ing. And now the time for the big parade was drawing near. On the corner of Main and Park Streets Mrs. Domineus stood, holding little Janet by the hand, but Azalia, not eontented to wateh from the walk, had mounted a soap box. Oh! Mother, will it never come? l'm so tired, ealled Janet. t'Here, Azalia, said the little mother, Htake Jannie up there with you. She is too small to see any- thing from here and the erowd jostles her so. Hlndeed, I won't, snapped Aza- lia. 'Ll found this box and brought if here for my own use, not for the whole family. Besides l'm not go- ing to be bothered with-Oh! here it eomes-here it comes, she squealed. Yes, it was really coming. The band, perehed upon a gilded wagon, burst i11to a spirited n1are'h. The glossy black horses tossed their be- ribboned heads and lifted their feet high in the air with eaeh step. And sueh a parade! Croftville, gather- ed on the curbs of Main Street, eheered and eheered. Wagoli after wagon passed-a cage of lions-a den of snakes-a eage of dogs-air other of lions-a polar bear-seals, some camels-and- Oh! Mother- see the little ponies and look at that white Teddy bear ! Oh! Oh! breathed Azalia, that beautiful horse-look-see him pranee-and look at that lovely lady-all in red-my, ain't she grand! Hello! Mary, whined a voiee, and Azalia looked down to see the tiniest of clowns, riding on a white donkey. 'tHello, Mary, he called again. He was looking at her! Should she answer? Hello, Mary dear! This time he waved his hand. The parade was moving slowly on. He would be gone in a moment! Quick! he was looking now. Hello, she quavered weakly. The word seemed to choke her. The rest of the parade passed slowly by her but Azalia's mind was still on Tilly Tad. She decided he was a- bout ber age, perhaps a little older. She stood as one in a dream. The golden rave ehariots-the ele- phants-the minstrel band-the gi- raffes-the zebra with its monkey rider-all reeeived merely a glanee from Azalia. Come down, Azalia, urged the mother, Heome home with us. You have seen it all-why, what on earth is the matter, child? You look so queer-brush that hair out of your eyes and please don't bite your finger nails, Azalia! Oh! Mother, let me stay till it comes back. It won't be long and l'll hurry home. Oh! please, Mum- sie! Here-I'll take Jannie up on my box, if you will. Well ' '-she eonvsented-' ' here, take Janet and do hurry. I want to set the table. With these words she left them. The band began to play again as the parade turned and started back. Azalia waited impat-iently till the white donkey appeared-yes, there it came and there was Tiny Tad in his cute lit- tle red and white suit and tasseled eap. Oh! if he would only look this way! VVould he wave and call a- gain? No, he was looking toward the other side of the street. All at once Azalia heard him say to Sadie l ' fx 8 THE MANZANITA Jackson, i'Hello, Mary! and Aza- lia in her jealous rage, saw Sadie smile and nod back at him. A tear started from Azalia's bright eye, but just then he turned and looked straight at her. Hello, dearyl his cheery voice cried, and then to astonished yet delighted Azalia he threw a Foolishly blushing, she stood in confusion, staring after his tiny form. Why, Zaly, that clown frowed a kiss to you, cried Janet in a shocked tone. Who is he, Zaly? Azalia walked home slowly- thinking-wondering. She could not forget the clown's small face. How handsome and young he Was! And he had thrown a kiss-to her! At the dinner table she was so un- usually quiet that her father in- quired, What's the matter with Puss today? Didnlt you like the parade? Don't you want to go this afternoon tl l guess you do not like circuses much, eh? Chl yes, she does, spoke up Janet, hut, Father, today, the pret- ty little clown boy frowed a kiss to her! My! l should think she'd he happy 'stead of mad-l would, if 'twas me! And how Mr. Domincus did laugh. Ile laughed till the tears rolled down his face and still he laughed! Threw a kiss to you, did he? Well Puss, l wouldn't worry about that. He does that to all the pretty girls.', As an answer Azalia made a face, stuck out her tongue, and flung herself out of the room. ln her own room she looked in the mirror. The face she saw was really pretty. Her long black hair was topped by a big pink bow, the very tint of her round cheeks. Her brown eyes flashed out from under heavy black lashes and her mouth was curved and dimpled. t'So he does it to all the pretty girls, does he? she said spitefully to the girl in the mirror. t'Huh! didn't I see him speak to Sadie Jackson? And he never threw a kiss to her-and all the neighbors thing shc's pretty. The afternoon was one of excite- ment to every villager. The big white tent, spread on a green com- mon at the edge of town, was crowded to its utmost capacity. Mr. and Mrs. Domincus were there with all the family. Azalia could hardly wait till the performance began. Finally the band on the platform began to play The Star Spangled Banner and the whole audience rose. Twelve jet black horses came prancing out, bearing twelve girls. 'lhey tripped daintly to the rings, where they divided, six going into each ring. The skill of the beauti- fully dressed girls in their daring acts was a source of envy and ad- miration to Azalia. She watched their every move, her brown eyes flashing. Between each act the Baby Clown would come out, mak- ing fun for every one. Many peo- ple afterward declared they had never laughed so before in all their lives. Azalia tried to attract his at- tention by waving her hand or throwing peanuts at him and twice or three times she succeeded in get- ting a grin and a wink from him. The performance over, Azalia left the tent with reluctance. She linger- ed in the menageries as long as she could and walked oh! so slowly down the street toward home. Sud- denly, as she walked along, a bril- liant idea came to her, so brilliant in fact that it made her brown eyes shine like stars. At the same time THE MANZANITA 9 she quickened her pace and fairly ran the rest of the way home, the pink bow flopping gaily over one ear as she ran. A-zalia, cried ber mother as she came into dismayed the door. Where have you been 'Z We have been home for an hour. Look at your dusty shoes. And do fix your hair! You look like a ruffian! Yes, mother, answered our heroine as she skipped to her room. But once inside, she paid no atten- tion to the pink bow but engaged in very mysterious proceedings. When her mother called for supper, Azalia emerged from her room with a triumphant light on her face. Will you please pass the butter, father, said Azalia sweetly as she sat at the supper table. The whole family stared in amazement at this new and strangely gentle Azalia, but she merely dimpled back at them. The supper dishes washed, Aza- lia joined the family in the living room. She tried to read a maga- zine but could not become interested. Then she attempted to crochet but her thread tangled in an exasperat- ing manner. Finally she cast it a- side, too, and leaned back in her chair. As she looked arou11d the room, first at her father, busy over his newspaper, then at the mother mending one of her middy blouses, next at Albert reading Treasure lslandf' and last at little Janet singing a lullaby to her doll, some- thing seemed to tug at her throat and she swallowed hard to get rid of it. The clock on the shelf struck eight. Mrs. Domincus rose wcarily. t'ome, Jannie, dear, it's time for bed. Azalia sprang to her feet. Let me take her, mother, you look tiredf, The mother's face lighted up with a tender smile. That's so thoughtful of you, Zaly, I am very tired. Goodnight, Jannie, pleasant dreams, she added as she kissed the rosy mouth. Azalia flushed guiltily, but said nothing. As she tucked little sister in bed, Janet pulled her face down to her own small one and whispered, I love you, Zaly. Again that queer something tugged at her throat and again she swallowed hard as she closed the door behind her. In the living room once more the minutes dragged slowly by. At half-past nine she arose to say good night. As she kissed her father she felt that awful sensation in her throat again. Her eyes burned and filled with tears. She gritted her teeth to suppress them and turned toward her mother. But the sight of the gentle mother working so patiently for her, touched Azalia's heart. She could not trust herself to kiss her but stumbled out of the room with not a glance toward the neglected mother. The moon shone through the win- dow and fell on Janet's face as she lay sleeping. A low sob escaped Azalia's trembling lips. Oh! well. 11's worth it. I'm not going to stay here in this poky old town for- ever, she declared with an attempt to regain her courage. Azalia crept into bed and 'lay there with sleepless eyes till the clock struck ten-then the half hour-then she heard the rest of the family leave for bed. Another hour passed-another half hour-and then she crept stealthily out of bed, dressed quickly, and pulled a small satchel from under the bed. It was an easy thing for Azalia to climb 10 THE MANZANTTA over the Window sill and drop to the ground three feet below, and she did this as softly as a cat might have done. Outside in the soft night air she breathed easier and with a glance at the moon and her star angels she started on a run. Down the quiet street she ran, past dark- ened houses and shops-on and on -straight toward the green field where the circus te11t was. Suddenly she stopped short. She had reached the place but the tent was down! VVhere were the booths -the horses-and the ticket sellers!! Several big black objects loomed up in the darkness ahead of her. These she soon saw to be loaded wagons. A11d then she saw a group of men who were rolling up the tents. The circus was moving already! It was a good thing she had come early. 4'Are you taking the circus a- way? she questioned. The man approached, whirled around. 'tWhy, where on earth did you come from, chick? Sure, we're moving. NVhat's your business here, anyway? he asked grutfly. Oh! Why-l-I-where is Tiny Tad? she managed to say between 0llEl'tl',9Y'll1g' teeth. 'tWhy, sure he's here. That,s him over there at that wagon tieing the boxes on. But what do you want with him? Gee, you're a queer duck, anyway. And he laughed a coarse, harsh laugh. Azalia looked in the direction in- dicated but she saw 110 little clown, clad in a red and white suit. Slow- ly she walked over toward the wagons. A number of men were working herefwhich one did that man say? That small one, there? VVell, that surely was not Tiny Tad! Pondering the questions over in her confused mind she timidly ap- proached the small man. VVith fear in her breast she asked, t'Are- are you Tiny Tad? The figure turned around. Aza- lia stood and stared. A small dwarfed man stood facing her-no young, handsome, smiling face was his-but old-ugly and wrinkled. Yes, l'm he, he announced with a snarl. What'll you have, miss? 'LOh! I-I-just wanted to-to know who you-who you+were- goodbyef, she stuttered and turned on her heel and started home on a run. On-on-and on she hurried through the dark, once she fell but she staggered on. Vtlith each step she mumbled, Oh! Oh! and he was so handsome today! NVhy did l go? Why did I go'?,' lt seemed that she had been run- ning for miles when she finally reached home. Pale dawn was just showing in the East as she crawled back into the little bed. When she awoke, the sun was shining and her mother was smiling down at her. Get up, Zaly. You are missing the best of the day. Sadie is wait- ing outside for you. Flinging her arms about her mother's neck, Azalia sobbed out, L'Oh!

MUNSON. inertial education that ,v seem the most 1ll1pO1taI1if aim to the business man ap- pear t.l1e most trivial to the student. For instance, spelling is usually con- sidered something that must be 'ttaken in order to procure a di- ploma of graduation. The business man, on the other hand, considers spelling one of the most important qualifications of his stenographers FTEN the features of com- ing!! ill - ,fx I I 1 . and clerks. True, he may not, him- self, be able to spell the ordinary words of business, but he is gener- ally able to detect a misspelled word in l1is letters and so demands accuracy on the part of his steno- grapher in that regard. And he is amply justified in requiring his letters to be free from errors in this respect as a carelessly written let- ter does not receive the careful con- sideration 'that the Well-written let- ter receives. Closely related to spelling is the use of words. Every stenographer should have a generous vocabulary. This is necessary for the proper ex- pression of what is desired to he communicated, bo-th in regard to meaning and to cuphony. It is of- ten impossible for the dictator to avoid repetition of certain words while framing a reply to a letter re- quiring considerable thought. That is left for the stenographer to rect- ify later in the preparation of the letter for the mail. Every steno- grapher should have a good diction- ary ill a convenient place, but that does not mean that it should be necessary to use it for the spelling or the meaning of the Words com- monly used in business phraseology. Another matter that is general- ly viewed very lightly by the stu- d611t is the ability to write iiuently and legibly. Any sort of penman- ship seems to answer for the require- ments of the student-until he seeks a position. Then he finds that one of the first qualifications demanded by the business man is good penmanship, written at a fair rate of speed. That is the reason Why so many of the advertisements for stenographers and other clerks call for replies in the handwriting of the applicant, and at the same time explains why so many of the applicants never receive a favorable reply. The business world, as a general rule, does not demand extensive lfnowledge in mathematics, but it does require intensive knowledge of the branches connected with any particular business. The ability of accurately use the four fundament- als is absolute. The student is very likely to consider that adding simple numbers, performing rapid calcula- tions in multiplication and division, estimating common percentages, and seeking to become proficient in short methods used in mathematical calculations is of very little practi- cal worth. But the business man who has to do with accounts will tell him that not only are they great time savers, but that they are also, effective cheeks against errors. In fact, there are numerous com- plaints from business men in all lines of business that too many of THE MANZANITA 13 the boys and girls graduated from the high schools are woefully de- ficient in ability to perform even the simplest calculations with 'ac- curacy and dispatch. ln stenography, it is not the writ- ing of one hundred twenty-live or one hundred fifty words a minute tl'at counts. It is the ability to transcribe the matter so written ae- curately and with a fair rate of speed. Of course, it is essential that the stenographer be able to record dictation at that rate in many cases, but unless she can make a correct transcript of it later, her ability to take it is of little value. Not only must the work be accurately and quickly done, but it must be artistically arranged as well. lt is useless to add that the successful typist must be a touch writer and not addicted to the eraser habit. ln bookkeeping it is, also, the small things that count. The aver- age high school, and particularly the high school with a two year's course, cannot attempt to make certified public accountants, not auditors, not bookkeepers with a full understanding of corporation, banking, or other forms of higher accounting. lint they can give the pupil a thorough knowledge of the theory of dehits and credits as ap- plied to common business transac- tions together with a knowledge of the usual commercial terms and usuages. As there are scarcely any commercial houses that conduct their bookkeeping records similarly in all their details, it is obviously impossible to drill the pupils on forms that would exactly fit all lines of business. However, if the pupil has thoroughly mastered the prin- ciples as above stated, he can, with very little effort, fit himself into any clerkship that may he open to him. He must not, of course, ex- pect to land on the top notch of his profession at the first effort. ln fact, it is much better for him to ae- cept a subordinate position at first so as to become accustomed to the system in use. Now. these few requisites are not meant to cover the entire field of business essentials. They are simply a few of the qualifications demand- ed by business men as first require- ments. The boy or girl who wants to train himself or herself for a bus- iness career, whether for a clerk- ship or for personal reasons, should take a four year's course and should include such subjects as commercial and industrial geography, com- mercial law, commercial arithmetic, office training, salesmanship, book- keeping and higher accounting. business English and correspond- ence, stenography and typewriting, spelling and penmanship, and Span- ish. These are all highly important considered from a broad commercial point and should constitute the main part of the commercial train- ing, but others such as algebra, geometry, history and civics, do- mestic science, manual training, and chemistry should also be taken, in part, according to the particular end sought. lt is evident that our commercial relations in the future will be largely with the South A- merican republics. Since the com- pletion of the Panama Canal Flllll our attendant interest there, they have come to our very doors. They are rich in their resources but very limited in capital and population. Travelers from those countries in- form us that they present various opportunities for the investment of American capital and American 14 THE MANZANITA genius, with the further assurance that they are both welcome-and needed. United States is rapidly building up the Canal Zone. Our sphere of influence is gradually ex- tending near the zone. Mexico seems to be sending special invita- tions to the United States to ex- tend our influences from the north. The present is a history making PI1 epoch not only in Europe but, also, on the western hemisphere, Hlld it would be impossible to prophesy what political eonditions may be a decade henee. Therefore, it would seem a wise provision for those in- tending to fit themselves for a eoin- mereial life to avail themselves of a good, sound course in the above subjects with a full four year's of Spanish.

All right, Granny, I'm coming, answered Betty from beneath the old oak where she had been dream- ing. Betty seemed to have had many day dreams the past week. Only the week before, a wealthy travel- ing party from New York had stop- ped at the old Benington place to await the quieting of the storm. Among the party was a girl of Bet- ty's age, a dancing, flippant little thing, who had assured Betty in the inost cheerful, bird-like voice that she had never lived in the country and never intended to, for she did11't see how country-bred people could ever keep up in so- ciety or with the fashions. She would have said more but Betty turned her scarlet face away and listened to no more. But the words set her to thinking, and she soon felt a longing to go into that other World and see for herself. Betty, again called the sweet little voice, what's the matter, honey? l don't think you feel well, let me give you some of my herb tea, honey. Obi no! protested Betty, 4'I'm not a bit sick, really, I-l' was only thinking ! Her conscience pricked her to think that she had even thought of such a thing as going away from the only home that she had ever known. So she set about preparing the table for supper, and after- wards went out i11to the lane to call the cows from the pasture. They answered her call and in a few minutes came in sight, strolling leisurely along, headed by old Bess. Again her conscience pricked her as she sat milking the cows and her grandfather laughingly pinched her cheek, saying that he could never in the world get along with- out his little girl. A shower had just passed, sprinkl- ing the dusty road, and leaving the air fresh and wholesome. Betty tripped along the road in high spirits. ln one hand dangled a white sunbonnet, and in the other was a letter from New York, ad- dressed to herself. t'-I wonder who it's from, she mused. I don't know of anyone there but Cousin Eunice and she'd certainly never write, because she never has, and I don't even remem- ber her. After waiting till she was out of sight of the little postoffice and its ever-interested loungers and gos- sipers, Betty sat on the narrow bridge across the pond to open her letter. She could hardly believe her eyes for there inside the envelope was an invitation from her cousin Eunice to spend two weeks at a house party at her home in New York. With a little gasp Betty snatched her sunbonnet from the ground and sped up the road towards home. Falling breathlessly on the porch, she handed the letter to her grand- THE MANZANITA 17 mother. That sweet old ladyis heart beat fast and painfully as she read it. Ohl dearie, do you really want tc- go? Go? repeated Betty, t'Oh! Granny, l'd give the whole world to. Just think, l've never bee11 to a large city i11 my life, and oh! you don't know how inueh it would mean to me. But, Granny dear, don't think that I want to leave you, you know it would be for just a. little While, and Betty kissed the sweet faee. Well, we'll see Grandpa about it, was her only eomment. When showed the letter that old gentleman fidgeted and eleared his throat, but finally said that he saw no reason i11 keeping the ehild at home when she wanted to go, and besides, it would be for only two weeks. ln two days Betty was at last on her way to the city of her dreams. She hardly realized that she was really away from home until she went to her room that first night in her eousin's beautiful home. Oh! how strange and Wonderful every- thing wasl lt seemed more like a fairy palaee than a home. She had this first night free to write a long letter to her grandparents, so she set about it, deseribing all the beaut- ful things and wishing that they were with her. Betty never knew why those two weeks went so fast. She was for- ever going, going, going. A new wardrobe was fitted out with the aid of her elderly eousin, and she was introduced to more people than she had met in all her life before. But she felt all a-tingle with the new life, and her happiness was eom- plete when her cousin asked her if she wouldn't stay a few months longer. L'l'm sure you ought to have a mind of your own, dear, she said. Let me see, you will soon be eigh- teen, won't you? l can tell by your happy faee that this is the life best fitted for you. lf you wish, you may write to your grandparents, and see what they say, and I shall write a little note, too. 'l'l1e grand-parents read the letters together, one letter pleading and persuading, telling about nothing but happiness and good times, the other telling of all the eharms the eity life held for Betty and how much better it was for a young girl than eountry-life. When they had finished reading the letter, the old man sighed, while two big tears splashed down the lit- tle old lady's faee. Oh! why did they let her go? They might have known how it would be, and now it might be years before they would see her again. their own darling baby! But in spite of all this the nare- worn grandmother wrote a brave little letter, telling Betty almost what her eousin had told her, that she was old enough now to know where she would be happiest, and to stay by all means, if she wished to. Betty did stay a few months, and many months more, but she drifted farther and farther away from the old life and those two old people who loved her more than anything else in the world. Her letters be- eame fewer and fewer, and after a year stopped altogether. Often she could have thought of home and loved ones, but she never allowed her mind to dwell on them for even 1 8 THE MANZANITA. a moment. Her conscience never pricked her anymore, for her life in the country was a thing of the past. The little grandmother never fail- ed to write her letters to Betty, tell- ing of her love, and the old grand- mother watched the New York pa- pers eagerly for news of her, for the name of Miss Elizabeth Fremont appeared often in the city papers. One day, two years after Betty had left home, the old man's eyes discovered these headlines, En- gagement of Miss Elizabeth Fre- mont and Frank Thorne, a Young Stockbroker, Announced. Tears blurred his eyes, and he cut the par- agraph from the paper and placed it next his heart. Two months later he discovered a long article about Miss Elizabeth Fremont 's marriage to Frank Thorne. This also went next his heart, and the little grandmother never knew. As he sat reading them over a few weeks later, she slipped noiselessly behind his chair, and from over' his shoulder she read the articles through. White and trembling she made her way from the room. Oh! it just eouldn't be true, or her own little Betty would have written! Even if she had never written at any other time, she certainly would have written now. But no letter had come. In a few minutes the little grand- mother came out on the porch, dress- ed in a black traveling suit. Her face was pinched and drawn, and she clenched her hands tightly to- gether. l'm going to her, Jim, was all she said. She did go, but she did not go a- lone. Leaving the cows and chick- ens in the care of a farmhand, the unloved and forgotten old couple started for that city which had caused them so much unhappiness: The next day, with the number of the street and house clipped from the paper to guide them, they ar- rived at the home of Mrs. Thorne. Please, inquired the little grandmother of the white-capped maid who answered the doorbell, Please, is my-is Mrs. Thorne at home? She is away at present. but you may leave your card or wait for her was the reply. So the excited old couple made their way through the immense parlors to a little reception room, where they waited to clasp their own little Betty in their arms once more. As they sat breathlessly waiting in the velvet cushioned chairs, a shrill voice sounded through the corridors, and then- there appeared in the doorway-Betty? that tall, haughty, overdressed creature? No, it couldn't be! And yet- Obi Betty, is it you? came faintly from the depths of the armchair. The creature in the doorway stared with startled eyes at her un- invited guests. Her hands clasped the heavy curtains in the doorway, and her heart beat quickly but no sound was uttered. At last regain- ing her composure, she said briskly, t'l'm in a very great hurry, now, so please forgive me and make your- selves at home! VVith that the new Betty turned, and with a burn- ing face left the room. Of course she would not dwell on the subject, they had no right to come unless she asked them to, and she just could not give up the party that after- noon for their pleasure. THE MANZANITA 19 As she dressed for the party, her mind turned repeatedly to those two old people down stairs. lt seemed impossible that she had lived with them and loved them just a little over two years before. Her mind was so confused and scattered. If she could only be away from it all-- to think, in some quiet, shady spot, where green grass and wild flowers were plentiful. But no, she must hurry to the party and atte11d to a hundred and one other things be- sides. That night the little broken heart- ed grandmother tossed restlessly a- mong her pillows. What was that soft click, click that sounded so far yet so real? She away and was waited for it to stop, but it kept up the same click, click, click. Sliding from the bed, she walked noiseless- ly to the staircase and peered down. Her heart almost stopped beating at what she saw, for there, at the foot of the stairway, between two great pillars, two forms crouched, and one carried a small flashlight. The clicking had ceased, and papers and rolls were being drawn from the safe: for yes, it was a safe, she had taken particular notice of it as she came up the stairs. But they were making away with the money! And she could not utter a sound! ln a moment those two masked forms had glided out into the darkness with their booty. i Sinking limply on the top stair, the little old lady gathered her scat- tered wits. Yes! there was only one thing to be done. Tip-toeing back into the bedroom, she took out all their hard earned savings, savings that they had been accumulating ever since she could remember, but -it was a thousand dollars, thank God it was that. Hastily writing a little note, she stole down the stairs, and placed it, with the roll of bills, inside the safe. Then the iron door elieked shut, and the little lady, sob- bing, went back up the stairs. Waking the old man, she told him all, and thirty minutes later they, too, stole out of the same door that the masked men had just left, away from that unwelcome mansion for- ever, and back to the little farm where they would be welcomed by the mooing of the cows, by the neighing of the horses, by the cackl- ing of the chickens, and by the bleating of the sheep. The next morning Frank Thorne discovered that his safe had been robbed, and also discovered the thousand dollars and the note. Reading the latter, light dawned upon him, and for the first time since Betty had know him, be be- came really angry, angry, not for the loss of his money, but because of that untrue Wife. Seizing the note and money in his hands, he went with set teeth and blazing eyes to seek her, his wife. Soon he found her. Her face was ehalkly white and her teeth ehattered. 'fOh! Frank, they 've goneli' and Betty sank to her knees, sobbing like a child. Frank gazed at her pityingly. His youthful face relaxed its hardness. After all, there was more than one way. Handing her the pitiful and heart-wringing little note, he gently told her to read it. and left her there, with it and the money. He could hear her moaning from a distant room, and after a long while, she appeared before him in traveling clothes, with a refreshed 20 THE MANZANITA mind and a certain determination around her mouth. She told him simply that she was going hack, for she had not forgotten, and she want- cd him to go with her. He kissed her with gladness in his heart, and in a few hours they were flying over the fields on their way to that brok- en-hearted couple. Oh! how good it was to fly over green fields and smell the sweet fragrance of wild flowers once more! Betty, indeed, was changed. The train was slower than she had ever known one to be, and she felt that she could never wait until she was there with those two ill-treated people who loved her more than any- one else in the world. Hurrying from the train, they got into the only hack to be seen, and Betty urged the yawning driver to hasten with all speed. Her heart gave little bounds of mingled grief and joy as she saw her grandfather leaning back in his chair on the veranda. Jumping from the hack, she raced up the walk, and was soon sobbing in that old gentleman's arms. Her grand- mother appeared in the doorway, tired and sad, but oh! the wonder- ful gladness that leaped into the wrinkled face as she held her own little Betty in her arms again. The old grandfather squeezed the young '.nan's hand with a grip that told more than words, for sometimes the gift of speech is not possible, and silence is best.

The Plea for Life RUTH ROSE, '16 nerr Up to the time of our story, hr. had spent all his i life near l1is rude home by OIINX Baird was a hardy pio- old Fort Steilieoom, on the coast of that beautiful body of water, Puget Sound. Often when but a child he had found refuge in the fort. He could remember the days, when the great wooden doors l1ad shut groups of terrified settlers away from the fierce attacks of the savage Indians: and the guard had locked the heavy door with that huge iron key, with which he had so often longed to play. So he had grown to manhood strong and brave, possessing almost unlimited knowledge of the modes of frontier life Ztlld Indian warfare. At last glowing reports of interior lands were brought to him. These so exeited his long silent desire to roam that after a time, he, with his two sons, husky young lads in their twenties, made ready to leave their little cabin on the eoast. They eros- scd the Cascade mountains and were pressing on into the fertile valley of the Yakima. Travel was not easy in those days. Flach day had its hardships. Trails were to be made, beasts of the forest overcome, game to be killed, and often suffering from hunger to be cndured. There were many hard- ships of whieh travelers today know nothing. It was evening, after a particular- ly hard and trying day. The three weary travelers, having found a lovely spot by a mountain stream. had made eamp for the night. They had cooked their seanty evening meal over a fire built of dry fir boughs. The fire still faintly glow- ed, throwing a pale light on the three sleeping men wrapped warmly i11 their blankets. All was silent. Only the tiny stream, rushing on to the sea, ripplcd over its roeky bed, singing a restful lullabye. The bright moon shone through the trees, shed- dillg its silver light upon the water. Now and then a gentle breeze whis- pered among the leaves, then pas- sed on into silence. The tired men had forgotten their hard-ships and a peaceful quiet filled ther minds. The whole world seemed at rest. But hark! A sudden series of shrill shrieks broke forth upon the still night air, growing louder and morepiercing and shrill. Again and again they came. The startled men sprang up together, anxiety written i11 every line of their swarthy faees. From the peace of the beautiful night they had been plunged into this dreadful chaos. A terrified gleam of understanding erept into the older man's eyes. 'Tis the Indians, he said in quiet tones. We are discovered! For a moment he stood in pensive silenee, then spoke again. VVait here in hiding, sonsg I shall return. Trust in God. Fear not, all will be well. With these words of parting he was gone, leaving his sons in quiet anxiety, awaiting his return. 2 2 THE MANZANITA Stealthily he made l1is way to the edge of the clump of trees where he could see the blaze of the great fire, lighting the sky. All too well he knew its significance. Many a time he had seen these lights and heard the dreadful war whoops of these people. His plan was definite. There was but one thing for him to do. It was indeed dangerous and daring, but his two sons must be saved. He crept silently across the open space toward the fire. Slowly a11d unnoticed he carrie to the clump of' trees. The whooping had ceased. He listened intently. It was the chief who was speaking. He was urging his braves to make an attack on the pale-face intruders. Their hunger for the sight of blood was aroused, murder gleamed and burn- ed in their dark eyes. They were ready to kill. Utter-ing a silent prayer, the noble and strong-hearted white man sprang into the circle and knelt before the great chief, then arose and in a passion-frought voice began his plea. Oh, mighty chief, oh, powerful warrior, leader of a great tribe, noble and true! Would it not be cowardly for you, so great and strong, to attack this group of weak and unprotected men? VVould it not be worthless? Only three sealps! Of what value are they to you? You are too brave, too noble, too power- ful and mighty to do this deed. We are your friends! Grunts and jeers came from the group about the blazing fire, but the chief was much moved by pale- face 's words. He stood silently in meditation, his great arms folded across his mighty breast. The plea was continued, honoring the chief, and heaping fliattery upon him, and telling him of his greatness. The derisive Warriors were quieted by the silence of their leader. The mighty head of the chief bowed. Slowly in deep and meaning tones he spoke the word of freedom to the white man. His gratitude expressed, Baird slipped quietly from the circle. Back to the camp he made his Way to bear the welcome and triumphant news to his awaiting sons. Days of travel followed.

The large eyes whose gaze was fixed on a hole next to a mound of still damp soil, seemed slowly to beeome large as the pupils dilated until only a small rim of topaz was visible. Oeeasional- ly the whiskers twitehed and her upper lip was drawn up, revealing a row of tiny teeth, eruelly sharp and snowy white. Another soft breeze swept over the meadow, eausing the grasses a- gain to whisper among themselves and the golden fur to ripple along the eat's spine. But she paid no heed, never onee removing her from the small hole before her. denly the earth beside the moved slightly, that was all. inuseles of the eat grew rigid she bent lower.

Slowly Puss shifted her weight to one fore foot, cautiously extending the other in front of her. She moved several inehes in this manner without making the slight- est 11oise. Drawing her body to- gether, her legs again stiffened and in another moment a sharp ery of terror and pain rang out, but only for a moment, however. The white teeth sank deeper and deeper into the soft throat until at length the body beeame limp and apparently lifeless. Puss, with a look of triumph, then laid down her victim, and purring audibly began leisurely to wash her faee, apparently oblivious of the presence of the gopher.

Several pupils who had been taking a regular High School course, and some from other schools took' the two years' course. From the begin- ning to the end this class showed good spirit in their work. The of- ficers of the Commercial Depart- ment for the first year were: Carl Bronson, president, Ruth McCorkle, vice president, Bernice Cave, secre- tary, and Lester Rowe, treasurer. In the Freshman and Sophomore tie-up some of the boys of this class took part but they did 11ot Win. In the High School vaudeville, the Commercials put on a pantoinine which was a success. Several pupils also tooks part in the High School opera, The Mikado. At the end of the first year Fred Kane was elected president, Blanche Frolli vice president, Agnes Rianda, secre- tary, and Allan Uren, treasurer. After the summer vacation, the pupils were glad to come back to school. Two or three pupils dropped out and others came. The class took much interest in their work the second year. Good spirit was shown in everything undertaken. The Commercials never seemed to take much interest in the Manzanita, but this year the record for sub- scriptions from the Commercial classes is greater than ever before, the larger number of subscriptions coming from the graduating class. NVc deeply appreciate the courtesy and consideration shown us by the editor of the Manzanita and his staff. The Commercial class put 011 a folk dance at the High School vaud- eville last October. It created a good deal of laughter. The president called several meetings and urged the boys to try out for football and basketball. Lloyd Flcckner and Henry Riboni made good in the football team, each winning his block NV and star. Allan Uren and Henry Riboni play- ed i11 the basketball team, Henry Riboni proving himself a star player. Agnes Rianda a11d Fred Kane Won card cases as prizes from the Remington Typewriter Company in a speed test. Each one averaged forty words a minute for ten minutes with less than ten errors. Blanche Frolli and Agnes Rianda won cer- tificates of proficiency in a monthly test based on material sent out by the Company. A debating society was organized in the Commercial Law class, a de- bate being held every alternate Fri- day. A debating team of three de- feated thc Sophomore class of the High School. Another team from the second year class won a debate from the first year Commercial class. This team will have a debate with either the Senior team or the Junior team for the VVickersham cup. THE MANZANITA 49 List Will and Testament of the Commercial Class 1916 We, the elass of 1916 of the Com- mercial Department of the Watson- ville High School, of the City of NVatsonville, State of California, at the age of two years, being of sound mind, and not acting under duress, fraud, or undue influence of any person whatsoever, do make, puhlish and declare this our last will and testament in the manner following: First: Be it willed that the clas- ses following continue in the same soher, industrious path that we have recently trod, and follow our splen- did example of scholarship and de- portmcnt. Second: 'Fo Miss Phelan we leave our excellent business letters and perfect descriptions which she may read to her classes for the pur- pose of inspiring them to greater efforts. Third: To Miss Flaugher we will and liequeath the undisputed right ot' having the hest hehaved class in the history of the Commercial De- partment. We also bequeath to her the memory of the dreary periods spent in dictating business letters to our tired brains, as well as our appreciation for the help which she so kindly gave us. Fourth: To Mr. Sanders and Mr. Munson, we will and bequeath our sincere thanks and appreciation for the time and energy spent in drill- ing us in the ethics of law and hook- keeping. Fifth: To the Commercial De- partment als a whole we do devise and bequeath a picture entitled Signing of the 'Declaration of ln- depeiidencef' This is our last token of love and adection to youg we trust it will ever adorn the walls of the f'ommcrcial Room.

The neeessity ot' a new high sehool has long been felt. The number of seholars is eontinually increasing, but still we are in the same old quarters. llow long shall we be foreed to stay here? There is need of larger and better elass rooms. When this building was eonstrueted in 1903, was there any intention of putting different elasses into the store rooms? Should the drawing ro-om, where a great amount of light is needed, be in a dark basement? Was it intended in 1903 that the typewriting room. too, should be in the basement? Did any of those who are doubtful as to whether or not a new high sehool is neeessary, ever eome into this build- ing on Monday or Friday and not realize the need of a different loea- tion for our ehemistry laboratory? Have any of these doubters ever entered the Study Ilall at the time an assembly was being held? Then, if not at any other time, will they realize the erowded condition of our school. Let them see the bo-ys lined up along the wallg let them see the Commercial students crowded into their section. They will then under- stand why we are advocating a new sehool. The argument has been brought up that the elass rooms are not erowded and that there are plenty of seats in nearly every room. Of eourse in some classes there are extra seats, as the number of students dif- fer in different elasses. But do you. 52 THE MANZANITA the doubting one, expect two classes, even if there are enough seats, to recite in the same I'OOlll at the same time? lf you say the rooms are not crowded just glanee into the com- mercial roo-ms or into the English room. Think of having the English elasses in what was. onee a small store room, with only one double window tlllll chairs instead of desks. How can you expect the students to do efficient work under sueh eondi- tions? , lf still you are not eonvineed, leave the high school building proper and go out to the two 'tshaeks be- hind it, where are the two highest grammar grades. There see the crowded eondition, feel the change of eold and heat, see there the ehairs in the aisles and hooks on the floor on aeco-unt of lac-k of desks. Then you will realize what a new school would mean to those Eighth Graders. They would either have good rooms in the old High School building or else have rooms in the new sehool, whieh, being mueh larger than the old, would easily aeeommodate them. Students, it is up to you to do all you can when the question arises a- gain! You are the ones who are vitally interested and eoneerned and it is for your benefit and yo-ur wel- fare. So eonvince your friends that a new High School is neeessary and do it so strongly that they will eon- vinee their friends. Have parades that have pep, You may think this sort of thing does 11ot help, but it certainly does, for when the people of the eity see that the students are as o11e behind this movement they will be impressed. Have mass meet- ings! Urge your opponents to at- tend them and then give those doubt- ers some good, straight-from-the- shoulder facts. Fonvince those 'twhat was good enough for me is good enough for you people that they are wrong! Stand behind your sehool board and your prineipal i11 whatever they do and back them up to the last diteh! They are working solely for your interest and if they feel that you are with them eonstantly they will work the harder. This is the one and only way it can be aceom- plished ! Therefore, students, wl1e11 the ques- tion eomes up again, show that you are true to the Blaek and Gold and boost for all you are worth! Show that there is still that W. H. S. spirit that never knows defeat ! VICTORY The ehampionship of the Uoast Counties' Athletie League in Basket Ball! A vietory indeed! The fel- lows certainly deserve a great deal of credit for the way they have fought. At the beginning of the year half of the team was raw ma- terial, yet what was the result? One of the lightest, if not the light- est team in the league, won the ehampionship! XVas it luck? Not by any means! lt was spirit! Now this is no-t a re-hash on sehool spirit, but there is one thing that must be brought out. 'With the en- tire sehool working as a unit, all striving for the same end, and every person sacrificing for the good of the whole, Watsonville High School ean see through to victory any- thing it undertakes. So, students, by giving your heartiest support to all that the High Sehool does there will never be the word defeat mark- ed against you. This was the spirit shown in the basketball tournament that brought sueh honor to the team 'PHE 'MANZANITA 5' and to the school. Keep it np. SUPPORT What is the matter? The revords of the Assoeiated Student. Body show that only one-third of all the students are memhers! The Man- zanita rem-ords shows only two-fifths of the students are subscribers! What is the reason? Why? Have the students failed in this one duty to their school? The two together are only one dollar per year and yet what a small number of loyal students there are. Does this ae- eount for the laeli ot' aetivity in the assenihlies? Does this aeeount for the mlm-fieit in the Manzanita fund 1' lt most eertainly does. The first and most important duty of the student is to join the Assoc-iated Student Body, the official organ- ization ot' the students. Next comes the Manzanita, the only High School puhlieation. Suhserihc, for this is the second duty, and duty it is. Every student at the liegiilxliilg of each year should feel that he must sign up immediately. Ile should he proud that he has two sueh organizations. He should he proud to he a part of them and help them along. lioost them in every way possible! liaek them up hy your moral and financial .support and make them hoth a sueeessi 113 F'-,Q s 1l'a ' O pass in A45 be - K X l g llco' 1 5 ,Q 50 F 5' I -X gf S15 QD N , ' , , .. 5 axis O L 54 THE MANZANITA X ZR' R ' ' we gf ' f' -. ,f .- 2 l I, pp -V Nl .M U.h.f. .

Debating Much enthusiasm has been shown in debating this year. Each class has a team which is prepared to tight hard that the numerals of its class may grace the NVickersham cup. The teams are all excellent as may be seen by the following: Freshman4Percy Dunlap, Thelma Pearson, a11d Louise SCllllll?lI'ti. Sophomores-Eleanor Little, Hel- en Brewster, and Cecil Shank. Juniors-Lucile Krough, Ilarold Mundhenk, and Eva Beilby. Seniors-NVilliam Grul, Ruth Rose, and Marjorie Moore. First Year Commereials-Lucile Webber, Leland King, and Frances Snyder. , Second Year Commercials- llladys Leslie, Reginald King, and Joseph Silva. A Freshman-Sophomore debate was held a short time ago in the Study Hall. The Sophomores were the victors. On Thursday, May 4th, the Commercial Interclass debate was held in the Study Hall. The debaters were first Hlld second year students, Uhe latter being victorious. The splendid success in debating this year brings great credit to Miss TH.E MANZ.A NIT.-X Lp 51 I'helan, our debating coach. The Play On Monday night, April 24, the annual High School play was given at the T 85 D Theatre. A Shake. spcarean play was presented in honor of the three hundreth anni- versary of the death of NVilliam Shakespeare. The production chosen was the comedy As You Like lt, a11d it was a success in every sense of the word. Many people doubted whether the High School could really produce a Sliakespelarean play, but all their doubts fled before the curtain had rolled down on the first act. The large crowd that attended the show came away highly pleased. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr. Frank Mathieu, the coach, and the Misses Tuttle and Young, who as- sisted Mr. Mathieu. Mr. Herrman, who directed the singing, also de- serves much credit. The cast, from the leading to the minor roles, was flawless. Velma Waugaman made a most charming Rosalind and won her audience from tlhe start, as did Kathryn Kirk- land, who played Celia. Miss Kirk- land proved a most Winsome actress. Waldo Maher played the part of Orlando, and he won the admiration of the audience. Harold Mundhenk as Touchstone read his lines like a professional and evoked much laughter. To Lars Bennett fell one of the hardest parts i11 the play, that of Adam, the old man, and Mr. Bennett certainly is to be congratu- lated on his clever acting. Lucille Buckley as Audrey, a country girl, was irresistible and brought down the house with her comical actions. Edgar Hagman al- so wou much applause and laughter. Kathryn Radcliff as Phebe, a shep- herdess, acted her part Well. Henry Blohm as Phebe's lover, whom she treated in a most heartless manner, also did excellent work. Frank Me- Sherry as the usurping Duke, Fran- cis McGrath as the Duke's banished brother, Ray Apperson and Elmer Plaskett as lords attending the ban- ished duke, William Emery as Le Beau, a courtier, and Clifton Angel as the wrestler had small parts but they performed them admirably. Mr. Apperson's vocal solo pleased the audience and won him much ap- plause. The other members of the east were: Lords and Ladies, Jean John- ston, Florence Walling, H. Morse. and Leo McSherryg Lords and For- esters, Arnold Koepke, John Strazi- cich, G. Berry, E. De Back, Hal- bediers, Jeffery VVilson, VV. Bader, Lester McGowan, and Irving Bliss. All appeared to good advantage in their neat costumes. The minuet in the last act proved a very pretty way to end the play and much credit is due Mrs. Eva, Cottrell who drilled those taking part. The beautiful costumes worn during the play and the scenery used were leading features of the production. Truly the High School has every reason to be proud of this excellent performance. The Agriculture Club The boys of the Agricultural Club have been raising potatoes for the past two years, but this year they are raising beets. Several men have visited the local club and have spo-ken to the mem- bers on diderent topics relative to agriculture. Their talks have been interesting and instructive, A short 56 THE MA NZANITA time ago a public lecture on the history of the telegraph, was given under the auspices of the club at the Presbyterian Hall. Several of the boys expect to visit the Davis University Farm this year. Some of the members of the club have withdrawn, owing to the con- dition of their lands. The oliicers of the Agricultural Club this year are: preside-nt, Shel- don Peckham, vice-president, Ed- ward Dunlap, secretary, and treas- urer, Emile liaPorte. The Mikado 'The High School produced an opera last year, something never be- fore attempted in its entire history. The result was another feather in the cap of the High School theatri- cals. lt played two evenings and to crowded houses each time. Several members of the faculty acted as coaches and proved them- selves most capable in successfully putting on such an opera. Mr. Her- rinan deserves much credit for his part in the production, The cast was well chosen and their singing, with that of the large choruses, was very greatly enjoyed. Mr. Edgar Hagman, who furnished the music for tlhe opera, proved a talented pianist. The Annual Election. A very spirited election was held this year. The annual election of the officers of the Associated Stn- dents was held on May 29. Prior to this the canvassing for and of the different candidates was keyed to the highest pitch. For President Joseph Cummings ran against Har- old Mundlienk. This was the office that was so bitterly contested. El- eanor Little and Jean Johnston were the aspirants for the position of vice-president. Marguerite Rod- gers and Katherine Martin strove for the secretaryslhip. There were three canfdidatcs for treasurer, Paul- ine Sheldon, Leland King and Doyle Peckham. These were the only of- iices in w'hi'ch there was any compe- tion. After much excitement and dis- cussion the election was held. The election hoard were Frederic Slhipp, judgeg Jeffrey Wilson and Lewis Lettunieh, clerks, Fred Kane and Elmer Plaskett, inspectors. The election was conducted very fairly, and after some challenging and arguing tfhe following oiifilcers were elected: Harold Mundlienk, presi- dent, Eleanor Little, vice-president, Marguerite Rodgers, secretary : Doyle Peckham, treasurerg 'Warren Roach, member-at-large from the Students, J. C. Corbett, membcr-at- large from t.he Faculty: liars Ben- nett, Editor of the Manzanita, Wal- do Maher, Manager of the Manzan- ita, Jolhn Strazich, Athletic Man- ager: John Donahue, Yell Leader: Henry lgl0'll1I1, Reporter. VVe are sure that these officers will prove themselves efficient and capa- ble during the coming year and that they will leave behind them a stand- ard of efficiency of the highest type.

Miss Redman invited all the Seniors willing to be- come little children for one evening, to a childrens' party at her home on First Street. Great excitement per- vaded the air the week before the party. Nor should it be understood that the excitement included the Seniors only. By no means! How the underclassmen envied the Sen- iors and longed to have a glimpse of them arrayed as children. But all the wishing in the world was of no avail, for it was strictly a Senior party. At last the night arrived, and such fun! There, and perhaps most comical of all, in pink and white bloomers, was the president of the Student Body, and similiarly dressed in blue and white checks was the yell leader of the school. Edgar Hagman was by far the most elegantly attired, in a befrilled pink taifeta gown and black velvet pumps, his hair curled, and a charming pink bow at the nape of his neck. He graced the piano stool as well as any girl. The girls of the class wore their hair either in braids down their backs or in curls. Short dresses and low-heeled shoes lent il more child-like appearance. The boys, for the most part, were dressed in the usual manner of boys about one-half their age. Miss Redman made all the children feel at ease the moment she welcomed them at the door. After each had admired and gazed at all the other little ehil- dren, Miss Redman called their at- tention to a huge spider on the cur- tain. A cord from the spider was given to each child and each was told to follow the'string and find the end. Over the doors, behind the pictures, back of the furniture, up the stairs and down the stairs the twine ran. At the end of each cord was a mysterious looking pack- age which no one was allowed to open until all the other packages had been found. Then they were opened and each contained a little gift, accompanied by an appropriate verse. After the toys had lost their novelty each child spoke a piece. T-his is the one that little Chester spoke: t'You can't guess what I had for supper, Brown beans and bread and butter. Miss Tuttle recited James VVhit- comb Riley's Giant Killer, which delighted all. Eugene Field's Or- phant Annie, and several of Robert Louis Stevenson's poems for chil- dren were also recited. Florence 'Walling sang 'tDon't Ury, Little Girl, Don't Cry. Next the little children were sent to the dining room where a table loaded with goodies made the eyes of every child widen with delight. After they had eaten all they could, they danced. Miss Redman certain- ly made all the little folks have ax good time. Miss Florence Vilalling entertain- THE MANZANITA 59 ed the Senior Class at the Appleton Hotel. As this is leap year, Miss Walling gave a very novel and de- lightful Leap Year Valentine party. Tl1e girls invited and took the boys. 'l'his was not compulsory, however, but this rule was generally followed. The class of 1916 is very wide awake a11d original. On Friday, March 31, the Senior girls came to school dressed in bungalow aprons and wearing their hair in braids. The boys wore soft shirts a11d red and green neekties. This innova- tio11 came as a complete surprise to all underelassmen who at first stood in the doorways, timidly gaz- ing at the Seniors as tl1ey passed through the halls. At assembly tl1e Seniors made a spectacular en- trance, con1i11g in o11e behind the other, loudly yells. During tilt' noon hour lllllC'l1 the law11. The day shouting their class was eaten 011 was a success and will 11ot soon be forgotten. The Seniors have not been prom- inent i11 social activities alone. In tennis Ray Apperson won the single championship of the class and Wal- lace Scott and Chester Kumle the doubles. But, alas! we were defeat- ed by the Juniors. After try-outs for debating the following team was chosen: Ruth Rose, Marjorie Moore, VVilliam Grul, and alternate, Fred Shipp. The debate with tl1e Juniors was held on May 17, the question being: Re- solved: That a commission for1n of government should be adopted by fill? State of Ualifornia. The Seniors had tl1e negative and won tl1e de- bate. ln tl1e production of NVilliam Shakespearmfs As You Like 'It the Senior Class was well represent- ed by the following: Florence Wal- li11g, Kathryn Radcliff, Lucille Buckley, William Grul, William Emery, and Edgar Hagman. JUNIOR CLAII HAROLD MUNDHENK, President MARGUERITE RODGERS. Vice Pres. ANNA KOCH, Secretary-Treasurer The class of '17 gave tl1e first party of this semester at tl1e home of Jean Johnston. Nearly all tl1e members of the class were present. Music, dancing, cards, and games were enjoyed and at a late hour delightful refreshments were served. Every 0119 present pronounced the affair a great success. In tennis the Junior boys defeat- ed the Sophomores 2.1111 Seniors i11 the doubles and fill! Junior girls carried ot? the honors by defeating the Sophomores i11 the doubles. Tl1e girls' singles we1'e lost to the Sopho- mores and tl1e boys, singles have 11ot yet been played. Tl1e teams are: girls' doubles, Ruth Rohr a11d Paul- ine Sheldon: girls' singles, Ruth Hierseh, boys' doubles, Arnold Koepke and Harold Mundhenkg 31111 boys' singles, Albert Ogi. The members of tl1e class showed their dramatic ability in the produc- tion of f'As You Like It. The leading parts were taken by Velma Waugaman and Waldo Maher. Harold Mundhenk, Lars Bennett. Catherine Kirkland, and Frank Mc- Sherry, also had important parts. 60 THE MANZANITA All did exceedingly well. The play was managed by Jeffery Wilson. The committees have been ap- pointed for the Junior-Senior ban- quet and elaborate plans are being made. IGPHOMGRE CLAII ELEANOR LITTLE, President GLADYS ANDREWS, Vice President CHARIS BLACKBURN, Secretary DELO RIDER, Treasurer . After patiently waiting for a whole year the Sophomores were finally allowed a class party. We immediately set to work to make our first real party a success. Delo fRider's home on Ro-driquez Street was chosen as the place where the joyous affair should be held. And a joyous affair it was. Fifty-five out of the sixty-five enrolled Sopho- mores attended. Games, songs, and other amusements filled the evening so completely that all agreed there was not a dull moment. One of the other amusements which proved very popular was the Heats. Ice cream, cake, and candy were served and there was plenty to go around, and more, too. Another, and per- haps the most amusing feature of the evening, was the presentation of a cake to a hungry buneh who came to the door, begging for food. After this act of generosity we were no longer bothered by any outside dis- turbances. The only sad moment of the evening came when it was sua- gested that we had better look at the clock. This was our first party but not our last as we expect to have many more, equally enjoyable. In both girls' and boys' athletics we have made a good showing. On the basketball court we were well represented by Johnny Strazieh. We were one of the first classes to take up tennis. We had a tourna- ment and the winners in this were chosen to represent the class in the inter-class tournament. Those who made the tennis team were: Anita Englehart and Florence Smith, doubles, and Doris Martin, singles, for the girls, Henry Blohm and Johnny Strazich, doubles, tllld Lloyd Palmtag, singles for the boys. These teams are practicing and ex- pect to make a good showing in the finals. The following five Sophomore boys Won awards for good work in basketball and football: J. Strazich, a block W and a star, NV. Fleckner, a block VV, W. Coats, block VV, G. Berry, a star, and L. Rich, a star. Three of the best players on the girls' basketball team, Florence Smith, Doris Martin, and Ruth Heron, are members of the Sopho- more Class. Debating was enthusiastically tak- en up by the Sophomores and so far they have been successful. The try- outs werc held a11d from nine who spoke four were chosen to represent the Sophomore team. These four were Helen Brewster, Eleanor Iiit- tle, and Cecil Shank, with Hilda Phillips as alternate. The question Resolved, that the Philippine Islands should be granted their in- dependence in not less than two or more than four years, was chosen as the subject for the Freshman- Sophomore debate. The Sopho- mores were given the negative 'of THE MANZA NITA 6 1 the question, and although the Freshmen put up some very good arguments, they were defeated. The next debate will be the Senior-Jun- ior debate, the winners of which will debate the Sophomores. NVe hope to get our numerals on the cup this year and the team will do their best in the final debate. ln the school play, As You Like lt. we were also well represented, Henry Blohm taking the part of Sil- vius, T. Reilly that of Amiens, and Frank Oliver that of Oliver. Each did his part Well and helped to make the play a success. Johnny Straz- ieh and George Berry were forest- ers, and although their parts were minor ones, were well carried out. The Sophomore class wishes to welcome Anita Englehart, who has recently come from VVinters. FRESHMEN CLAII HOWARD MORSE, President ROLAND JACKSON, Vice President THELMA PEARSON, Secretary EDNA LEWIS, Treasurer For the last half year the Fresh- man Class has enthusiastically en- tered into school life and school af- fairs. Our class is in favor of peace and literary prominence rather than athletic showing, as is no-w recogniz- ed when our year as Freshmen is nearing its close. NVe intend to carry out the same policy i11 our Sophomore year. Only one of our number gained prominence in boys' athletics, Ulys- ses Meginnes, who won a block WH for his part as a substitute on the football team. Two mem- bers of our class, Thelma Sartain and Lucille VVeber, made the girls' basketball team. We came out creditably in the Sophomore-Freshman debate, al- though we lost to our opponents by a few points. Our team was not quite equal to that of the Sopho- mores in eloquence. Those who won a place on the team were Louise Schuchard, Thelma Pearson, Percy Dunlap and Edna Lewis, al- ternate, and our experience will help us greatly during our Sopho- more year and the years to Follow. Two members of the Freshman class, Howard Morse and Leo Mc- Sherry, helped to make the Shake- sperean play a success. All mem- bers of the class helped the school by selling tickets and giving their support to the play. COMMERCIAL CLASS I-'RED KANE, President ELANCHE FROLLI, Vice President AGNES RIANDA, Secretary ALAN UREN, Treasurer During the past five months the Commercials have taken hold of things with such spirit as they have not had for several years past. They hope to continue in this way and build up a strong school spirit. ln basketball the class was well represented, having two men on 62 THE MANZANITA the team, Henry 'Riboni and Alan llren. Mr. Riboni was one of the star players Hlld the school owes as much to him as to any other player o11 the team for our victory. Mr. Uren was a substitute but he did his share in urging the fellows when they became disheartened. , In thc inter-class baseball games, combined with the sophomores, they played the Seniors several times and won many of the games. They are also interested in de- bati11g a11d expect to make a good showing in it. The Commercial De- bating Society has been holding de- bates every two weeks and quite an interest has been developed. During the past year several of the graduates of the department have secured positions through the aid of the school and the efforts of Mr. Sanders, bo-th at home and in San Francisco. Vincent Anderson, a graduate of last year, is working in a lawyer's office in San Francisco and is going to night school also. Lester Rowe, who graduated five months ago, is working for a large is, , candy manufacturing house in San Francisco. Ruth McC'orkle, who graduated with Mr. Rowe, has been recently appointed assistant secre- tary of the Watsonville Merchants' Association. Several others have also secured positions in different places. Mr. Sanders is urging all who can to go to San Francisco as there are numerous possibilities there, also to take the Civil Service examinations as the government is in need of competent stenographers and bookkeepers. During the month of May a type- writing contest is to be held in Santa Cruz. Six schools, including NVat- sonville, will compete. The local contestants hope to make a good sho-Wing and will try hard to Win a victory for VVatsonville. Preparations are being made for the Commencement exercises which are to be held on June 16. A fine program is being prepared and the graduating class is expected to be the largest in the history of the Com- mercial Department. .m.,.. --vp - X ff v DQQ l I WX V . , .AX ,, . 3,49 My ,fl sf. . . ,jf-,' ' 'Sie Rrgafiiel-29.' ,' X 1 4 G ' EIHI.

A handsome trophy eup engraved with a prominent W. H. S. stands as 2111 evidenee of this feat that aeeompanies a ehampionship. The opening ol' the season found us with only three experienced players as a nueleus around which to build. but the ready response to the opening praetiees by a generous amount of good material soon dis- elosed prospeets for the other posi- tions. As praetiee progressed, in- terest was intensified both in the players and in the sehool as a whole and by the opening of the season enthusiasm, whieh is sueh an import- ant factor in the sum-eess of any High Sehool aetivity, was running high. The opening of the season found the following men on the team, with Stephen Urossetti ehosen as their eaptain: R. Apperson, J. Strazieh, S. Urossetti, ll. lliboni, W. llrul, ll. Bluudhenk, with li. Mc-Gowan and A. llren, F. llillman as an efficient and ready string of men to eall upon at any time for utility serviees. Apperson and llrul were the only veterans of last year's team. all though Vrossetti had had mueh pre- vious experienee. Strazieh, Mun- dhenk, and 'liiboni were entirely U-Nwlwsmg new men and the manner in which they developed is no less than won- derful. Here are the games: VVe opened the season on our own court against Paeifie Grove ll. S. The game was fairly elose and ex- citing, but we were ahead at every stage and won hy 25 to l8. Santa Cruz H. S. was next on the schedule. This game was intensely thrilling, the score being tied mueh of the time. Our fellows eame through with a11 amazing final spurt and won by 37 to 28. Then eame the Monterey game. This was played in Paeitie llrove and for some unaeeountable reason the team experieneed a slump and was beaten. The seore was 21 to 20. Gilroy forfeited. King City, our next opponent. journeyed ninety miles to pay us a visit. This game was slow beeause of the number of fouls made by both sides, but we emerged on the long end of the seore, whieh was 49 to 2323. Then eame the big game between Watsonville and Santa. Vruz to de- eide the ehampionship. This game was made neeessary by the tie for first plaee. whieh existed at the elose of The V. l'. A. l.. sehedule. Santa Cruz had the advantage of her own floor but our fellows and the sehool were determined that she should not win.

VVe won by a seore of 23 to 20. Several other games were played after the sehedule had been eom- pleted. Among them was a decisive victory over the San Jose State Normal and a defeat by the Aead- emy of the Paeifie of San Jose. This Years Wearer of Awards W. Fleekner NAME L. Lettunieh G. Berry .,....

The first game was played with the Gilroy girls on our eourt on Deeember 11, 1915. The seore was 24 to 20 in favor of Gilroy. The second was the return game with Gilroy on their eourt 011 Feb- ruary 26, 1916. The seore was 27 to 19 in favor of Gilroy. The good fellowship shown us by the Gilroy girls on our visit to their eity will be a pleasant remembrance in the minds and hearts of those who went on the trip. The third game was with the Mon- terey girls on the Paeilie Grove eourt, on lllareh ll, 1916. The seore was 49 to 32 in favor of Monterey. There seems to be a splendid spirit of enthusiasm and eoolperation a- mong tihe Monterey girls. VVe eon- gratulate them for their fine work and excellent. play, and appreeiate their hospitality and good-will to- ward us. The following girls played on our team this year: toneh eenter, Jud- THE MANZANITA 67 itll Emery, '17, passing centers, Marjorie Moore, '16, Thelma Sar- tain, '19, and Florence Smith, '18, forwards, Ruth Heron, '18, Doris Martin, '18, and Lucille Webber, '19, guards, Pauline Sheldon, '17, and Lucille Buekley, '16, Ccaptainj. The girls feel very grateful to Miss Young and Mr. Steve Crosset- ti for their encouragement and as- sistance. ln spite of the showing made by the scores, the playing of our team was entirely creditable in every way, and was the result of earliest and faithful practice. The girls derived a great deal of pleas- ure and protit from practice and the games were red letter occasions to them all. Pauline Sheldon, '17 was chosen captain and manager, and Ruth Heron reporter of the' Girls' Basket Ball Team for 1916-1917. Tennis The classes are showing a great deal of enthusi-asm over tennis, es- pecially the Sophomores and Jun- iors. Doris Martin, '18 won the singles against Ruth Biersch, '17, Pauline Sheldon, '17, and Ruth Rohr '17, won the doubles against Flor- ence Smith, '18, and Anita Engle- lxart, '18, The match was very close and Well played, the score being 2 to 1. Miss Phelan had charge of the group of High School girls who put on a bar-hell drill and a volley-hall game for the Children 's Play Ground Benefit on May 13, 1916. The Work gave the girls some idea of what could be accomplished in a new school, properly equipped With a gymnasium.

La Palma, Azusa, Cal.-VVe thank you for sending us such a fine paper in exchange. Your staff is indeed praiseworthy. But here is one sug- gestion. In your literary depart- ment, why not start each story and long poem on a new page? The spaces below can be filled with shorter poems or small cuts. You will find this will add to your ap- pearance. You joshes and car- toons are clever and amusing. VVe received 'so many interesting newspapers that we thought it best to include them here in our column. Flashlight, Salinas, Cal.-A newsy and interesting monthly, up-to-the- times in every respect. 72 THE MANZANITA Florida School Exponent, Talla- hassee, Fla.-A neat, well arranged journal. Come again!
