We were forty-five enthusiastic knowledge-seeking Freshmen. There is a saying, “Quality not Quantity. We had Quality. Our Freshman year was filled with joys and hardships—hardships because wc were so timid and green. At the beginning of that year, we elected our class officers as follows: Gifford Kysor. President; Florence Paterson, Vice President; and Priscilla Milbert. Secretary and Treasurer. By the closing of the school year, wc were as brave as the upper classmen. On February 9, of that year, our school building burned. From then until June, we continued our work in the Congregational Church. Many hardships and inconveniences had to be overlooked there, yet we found real fun in it too. The classrooms were partitioned off with canvas. Hearing two or three classes recite at one time was nothing. It was musical, decidedly so! Such perfect harmony! What fun! Next year wc were transferred to the Town Hall, and our schedule there was a trifle more convenient. We feel very grateful to our teachers, who so earnestly and faithfully toiled with us under those inconveniences. That year our class officers were: Florence Paterson. President; Pearl Kreatz. Vice President; and Francis Filiatreau, Secretary- and Treasurer. We all remember the Commercial Room upon the stage. Its general characteristics were red ink. black ink splashed all over, crude wooden desks for the bookkeeping classes, and the Bookkeeper's friend. Miss Darnell’s Red Hook. Nearing the close of that year, the stage was used for play practice and Operetta practice. Our classes were interrupted almost every day and we were sent downstairs to study. But in spite of these trials, tribulations and close quarters, we were ready to enter the New High School as Juniors. Here we began making great achievements in athletics. Our boys and girls worked hard to make good teams, and the defeats we had to take wc had to expect because our teams all were new men starting out in the big field of athletics. This year we had many parties with different kinds of amusement. If a person disliked one kind, he could join in another. The big event of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom, and all the hustle and bustle that goes with it. Chickens were killed and the process of dressing them was carried on in the Domestic Science Room. Everybody worked faithfully and without much urging. That year we gave the play. “Safety First. in which our actors and actresses had u chance to prepare themselves for the same job this year, only much more difficult, of course. This year we entrusted our class business to: Clifford Hehel. President; Robert Spencer. Vice President; and Marie Ekstrom. Secretary and Treasurer. And now we are Seniors—a busy year for us. too. There are lessons, Commencement, pictures, and “Annual to think of and to plan. This year our officers are: Viola Talbert, President; Roland Smith. Vice President; Florence Paterson. Secretary; and Robert Spencer, Treasurer. Of course, we have had parties and outdoor sports, but the “Annual” is what requires hard, well thought-out work. We have tried to do our work and to fulfill our expectations of great achievements as well as in other activities. The time for departure from W-H-S is almost here. Before we leave, we wish to acknowledge the kindness and generosity of our parents, who have expended so much time and money in giving us such excellent education facilities. We wish to thank the faculty for all the aid that they have given us—and so at last 1 write the word— “Finis BRIGHT SAYINGS OF SENIORS Viola T.: “I don’t know what this blamed sentence means.

President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Advisor JUNIOR CLASS noble class of ’24, of courage and of nerve, has sixty members, less or more, U y of purpose hard to serve. Sixty members started in the high-school course to take; sixty Juniors stay to win good grades—the ones we make. Friends we are, and comrades true, we work together for the right. Whate’er we think or say or do, helps the Seniors to the ‘‘light. ' We’ve an admission not so new or unseemly to your sight; it is—we love our teachers, too. Not for the marks which they have given (they were not earned with easel, but for the zeal with which they’ve striven. They worked, too, if you please, to teach us sciences and art, and cultivate both mind and heart. We admit we're not a remarkable class, that fact is not denied. But we always manage our grades to pass, we point to that with pride. We're average pupils, everyone, and none are better than some. We've combined our arduous studies with fun. and enjoy the three years since we’ve come. In athletes, we do not lack to hold our honor high, in football, basket or track we make our opponents sigh. In only one way we claim renown (tho we could claim nearly all). We own the peppiest twins in town, the well known players of basketball. Kenneth Kelley’s “First Man of the Land,” he holds the president’s chair. Tis an honor, we know, to head our band but 'twas right of merit that got him there. “Doctor Bugs” may always be found, satchel in hand, running around. And the Oddians with clear intent, chose Anna Milbert their president. Our rings were the big event of the year, for which we long had strived. They made our titles to Junior clear -showed the things we have survived. This reference to the class play is a little one. in fact. But it advertised to all the world the way those Junior folks can act. By literary efforts we made our mark; as orators, musicians and minstrels dark. Our social leaders are not so slow; they gave us all a good time, this the Junior party will clearly show (Ye gods, now, what will rhyme?). Next year as Seniors we'll carry on. with courage we've shown thus far. And finish up what we've begun, “Hitch your wagon to a star.” c jQokout G) SOPHOMORE CLASS Myron Shaver ....

Miss Hoffman...................Advisor e jQokout G) SOPHOMORES LAST! the fourth of September arrived, and our high school days began. As the school was not entirely completed, there was much confusion, and we didn’t know exactly where to go. We were much insulted at being taken to the “Ninth Grade” room to register. Then we found that Wayzata had a Junior and a Senior High. We weren’t Freshmen but “Ninth Graders.” Our first year was very successful. We were prominent both in athletics and along literary lines. In the Equinox-Oddian contest several members of our class won honors. Then, vacation came. When September arrived again, we returned expecting to sit with the Senior High, but there was room for only a few lucky ones. Our great worry was initiation, but it wasn't as bad as we had expected. Several of the Sophomores took part in the Carnival given by the Seniors in November. We enjoyed several parties with the Juniors and Seniors and a few by ourselves. Next year we shall be Juniors, and the most brilliant and talented that Wayzata High School has ever had, for haven’t we proved to be the most brilliant Freshmen and Sophomores? So you will most likely, that is, you will hear more of us either through the annual or through some well known paper or magazine.

Advisor HISTORY OF THE FRESHMAN CLASS HE schoolhouse on the hill was again awakened from its heavy summer slumber, for we, the brilliant Freshmen, came to astonish the world with our superior mentality. At the beginning of this first semester, high school life passed smoothly, but when we received our report cards, we must admit there was a break in that calm which resulted in a gnawing and gnashing of teeth. We are the better for that break because there is a little studying going on, which was not thought necessary before. One thing we shall always remember is the carnival. Just think how many of us Freshmen took part in it, and how many of us came out so unsurpassingly well in raising money for the school! It was here that Henry Hyberg showed his great ability as a wild man. Another thing in which we excelled was showing our parents how bright we were. Oh, they were cjuite taken off their feet when they saw the things made by the sewing class, the things made by the Manual Training class, when they watched the girls do their gymnastics and the boys do their acrobatic stunts, and when one of the English classes recited. Ah, we are the most brilliant, best looking, most courteous class ever known in Wayzata or there-a-bouts. Undoubtedly, several pages of history will be devoted to us in later years. M. B. THE HISTORY OF THE EIGHTH GRADE ■J'ORTY pupils of the Sixth Grade entered the Junior High School in September, Tj 1921. We were a jolly, laughing bunch. Nothing seemed to bother us, but we soon found out that we would never get through the world laughing. Nevertheless, we survived the Seventh Grade and are all studying with great diligence, hoping to enter Senior High with our classmates. The Equinox Society won the contest last year with the help of the Seventh Grade, but the Oddians are planning to defeat the Equinox this time. THE HISTORY OF THE SEVENTH GRADE 3N SEPTEMBER. 1922, the best grade in the history of the school entered the Wayzata Junior High. Our Class numbers thirty. Not all of its members are residents of Wayzata, but, recognizing the excellence of our school, some have come from neighboring towns to attend this institution. We feel already the responsibility toward its support and try to show it by ever-increasing respect to our superintendent and teachers, by careful study of our lessons, clean sportsmanship in all athletics, and loyalty to the school. The Equinox and Oddian Societies welcomed us as new members. There was great excitement when each drew the lot which cast him into the society to which he will belong during his sojourn through the Junior High. We will earnestly endeavor to keep the standards of these societies high and to help them to become a strong factor in the school. We have participated in public programs and two of our members have joined the school orchestra. Ruby Berg won the Lake District prize for the best composition in the “Better Homes Contest. Our “Toboggan Party and Picnic Supper” have gone on record as being a successful social function. We hope to have other social gatherings before the year is over. ookout G) V Skull Days ProM Days !

Vice President; and Aiieen Stubbs, Secretary and Treasurer. Our advisers are Miss Carlson, Miss King, Miss Timme, and Miss Hoffman. As Mr. Selke and Miss Goodman are neutral, they are to give help to both societies on all occasions. On the program committee were Roland Smith, Donald Quay, Gail Stembeck, and Aiieen Stubbs. The first program was given on December twenty-second. There were musical numbers by a boys’ quartet, a reading from “Anne of Green Gables,” a selection from the “Birds’ Christmas Carol,” and a piano and cello duet. On the twenty-sixth of January, the Equinox and Oddians had a party. Card games were played during the first part of the evening and there was dancing later. Refreshments were served at 10:30. The Equinox Girls defeated the Oddians in a basketball game by a score of 23-16. We hear there is to be a contest. The Equinox are sure to make a good showing. You may depend on that. Miss Hoffman: “John, will you tell me what a contract is?” John Peterson: “1 told you yesterday.” Mr. Selke: “What kind of work have you done, Stanton?” Stanton: “I told you once I didn’t work. ODD I AN SOCIETY S is the custom, a few days after school had opened last September, the Oddian Society held a meeting to reorganize and elect new officers. Those elected were: Anna Milbert, President; Irvin Osier, Vice President; and Helen Peck, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Hoidahl, Miss Moe, Mr. Henkel, and Mr. Lindquist are our advisers. Mr. Selke and Miss Goodman are neutral, and are to help both Societies at all times. During the first part of December, a program was given. There were several numbers among which were a solo, “The House That Jack Built,” and a recitation. “Bed-head. Bed-head, Gingerbread. ' The number which afforded the greatest amusement was a debate, “Resolved: That a hen can roost better on a round perch than on a square one.” There were no judges. Everyone was to judge for himself which was best. The Oddian girls played one basketball game with the Equinox girls and lost by a small margin. There was an Equinox-Oddian party the twenty-sixth of January. The first part of the evening was spent playing games and the latter in dancing. AH had an enjoyable evening. The Oddian-Equinox contest is to come off soon. The Oddians will surely walk off with honors. ookout G) THE GLEE CLUB T the opening of the school term last fall, the Glee Cluh reorganized and elected Marie Ekstrom. President; Florence Paterson. Vice President; and Viola Talbert, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Goodman is the supervisor. On March 16, the Glee Club furnished two numbers on a school program. The Glee Club will furnish numbers later on, at a musical program. We hope that interest in the Glee Club will increase in the future, so that the Glee Club will become one of the strongest organizations in the school.

BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA purpose of the Boy Scouts is “to promote through organization and co-UL operation with other agencies, the ability of hoys to do tilings for themselves and others, to train them in scout craft, and to teach them patriotism, courage, self-reliance, and kindred virtues, using the methods which are now in common use by boy scouts, by placing emphasis upon the Scout Oath and Law for character development, citizenship, training and physical fitness.’ (C. Art. II.) The above paragraph will not mean much to you unless you have read the Scout Oath and Law. It pledges him to courage, courtesy and obedience, to loyalty, to cheerful service, to reverence, to cleanliness of body, mind and speech, to honor in the deepest and broadest sense. There may be scouts who slip up occasionally and let the corners of their mouth go down instead of up, when an unwelcome task threatens. But these cases are in the minority and simply mean that Scouting hasn’t entirely saturated the boy’s system. Just as the knights of old were pledged to serve young and old, strong and weak, rich and poor, so Scouts promise to do likewise by being helpful to all people at all times. Every scout is pledged to do at least one good turn daily, and this does not mean simply a regular duty or home task but something extra, something that costs efTort, time, good will, and thought. The Boy Scout organization is far from full grown, as we have just reached our thirteenth “birthday.” Nevertheless, we have acquired a membership of 533,777 strong. Scouting is great fun, but is not only fun. Scouting is stiff work, but it is not all work. It means self-denial, but also has tremendous compensations. The farther you go in scouting, the longer you remain in the movement, the stronger will be your interest and loyalty. You are welcome to join us, and thus make us stronger and happier for your coming. THE “WAYZATONIAN” digest of the affairs in our school is the “Wayzatonian,” which is put out under the able leadership of the two English teachers, Miss Uoidahl and Miss King. This so-called “digest’' is regularly put out once every thirty or so days. It consists of many things in the literary way, besides school and class news. In it you find “high class” stories, poetry by our most eminent poets, and then, of course, there is the page devoted to the wits of the school. All this for the nominal sum of ten cents! It is a well-known fact that it takes more than an editor and a staff to prepare and publish a paper, which should represent the whole school. It requires the backing of the school spirit and the student body. What the “Wayzatonian” needs is the school as a whole. Next year we hope to have ! etter facilities for the printing of our paper. Such being the case, you may rest assured that this school will have the best school paper of any school in our district providing “school-spirit” is there, too. e ) A £_ Mammas Pnitle, The 5p hiti x Mot hen s Little He K t D Spe-aamint K ookout FOOTBALL SEASON OF 1922 HE football team was organized as soon as school opened. Only two letter men were missing, so Coach Henkel did not have the task of coaching a team of “green men. Twenty-live candidates, including the letter men, reported. Blake at Wayzata. Defeat—12 to 7. The score shows that the teams were very evenly matched. Although this was the only defeat of the season, it was the first time Wayzata had scored on Blake for a number of years. “Uv High at Wayzata. Victory—7 to 0. A hard fought contest all the way. It was a struggle between the backfielders of the two teams, but our team showed its superiority and won by a single touchdown. Excelsior at Excelsior. Victory—40 to 0. 'I'he first conference game! Wayzata was confident of winning and was not disappointed. This game afforded fairly good practice for the backfield men, as they were running with the ball most of the time. Kelley made two touchdowns within five minutes. Mound at Wayzata. Victory—56 to 0. One of the most uninteresting games of the season, both to spectators and players. The only exciting moment of the game was at the end of the second quarter when Mound came within three yards of our goal, but was unable to cross it. Captain Talbert was on the sidelines the second half. ookout G) Hopkins at Hopkins. Victory—19 to 6. Wayzata went to Hopkins expecting a rather hard contest. Although Hopkins scored one touchdown, they crumpled before the combined attack of the line and our back field stars, Captain Talbert, Kelley, Thorsen and Shaver. Luther at Luther. Victory—6 to 3. On November 3, Wayzata went to St. Paul and played Luther. Their team outweighed ours about twenty-five pounds to the man. In the second quarter, Luther kicked for her three points. “Toad made a thirty-five yard run for a touchdown in the third quarter, making the score 6 to 3. No scores were made in the fourth quarter although Kelley gave a good exhibition of end runs. Championship game! St. Louis Park at Wayzata. Victory 34 to 0. Wayzata went onto the field with the motto, “Win or Bust.” St. Louis Park seemed to have no pep whatever, but Wayzata had her old fighting spirit and scored the small total of five touchdowns. This was a championship game of which Wayzata can well be proud. Hopkins at Wayzata. Victory—31 to 6. The last game of the season for our boys. Wayzata had already won the championship. but was scheduled to play one more game. Hopkins kicked off. Berger received the ball and fumbled it. A Hopkins player picked it up and dashed twenty yards for a touchdown. This was rather discouraging, but by series of passes, plunges and long end runs throughout the game, Wayzata ran up a score sufficient to beat Hopkins soundly. Aside from the one defeat by Blake, a game which was not a conference game, our boys came through the conference games without a single blot on their record.

F Is for Feser, Filiatreau, too, They’re right on the job the whole game through. G Is for Graham or “Jimmy” for short. His place at right tackle he never falls short. H Is for Held, “Bud,” Oliver, of course, His position as left guard he plays with much force. I Is for indigo, which is the hue The enemy turns when “W” boys smash through. J Is for Johnston, our left half or right end. He is one of the boys on whom we depend. K Is for Kelley, the doughty right half, A gridiron hero, and one, oh-so fast.

N Is for nerve with which our boys play ball, You never have seen them laid out by a fall. 0 Is for Otto—Coach Henkel by name, Who has done his share toward dear Wayzata’s fame.

The Mound-ites swung high, low and wide, but it was of no avail, for “Collier,” with his “snake ball,” “fade-away,” “upshoot” and the rest of his twisters, presented to them a batting problem which they were unable to solve. The next game was played with the Parks, April 28, resulting in a runaway for Wayzata. As a matter of fact, their outfield was kept busy running circles around the flag-pole and chasing the ball down in Dr. Devereaux’s back yard. We met Blake on a decidedly cloudy day. Our khaki trousers, various colored shirts, and our shoes of many sizes and dimensions, set forth a marked contrast with Blake’s uniforms. However, that did not prevent us from inflicting a 9-4 defeat upon them. We played a return game with Mound and suffered a reverse, losing the game by a margin of 9-5. This was due partly to Kelley’s developing a phenomenal ability at striking out. After a week of strenuous practice, we performed the ditto act on Blake by out-slugging them 15 points to their 12. Collier, with his all-powerful arm, saved the Blake players the trouble of navigating the distance from home to first. In all, he sent fifteen of them to the bench. Victory was followed by defeat. Excelsior won a hard-fought game by 2 points. The final score was 8-10. It seemed to be a day of errors. Our next game was played with Deephaven. The whole outfield played a good game, as they did not have to chase after any balls. Even though the opposing team was small and hard to pitch to, we defeated them by a score of 17-1. The game lasted only six innings as they thought they had had enough of Wayzata. The closing game of the season was played with Hopkins. This game, being the last one, seemed to have an effect upon the Wayzata team, for they lost with the score of 11-16. 23 Mound 12 18 St. Louis Park 2 9 Blake 4 5 Mound 9 15 Blake 12 8 Excelsior 10 , 17 Deephaven 1 11 Hopkins 16 Total 106 Total 66 BOYS’ BASKETBALL UR team made its first appearance of the basketball season over at Hopkins, December 15. They lost the lead, which they had gained at the beginning of the game, for they were at the wee end of the score of 20-9, at the final whistle. The main features of the game was Hopkins' phenomenal long distance shots and Kelley’s departure in the middle of the first quarter. The cause of Kelley’s departure has not been published as yet. Our team again met their Waterloo, January 11, hv trailing with a score of 11 to Mound’s 28. Too late to make amends, we staged a rally in the second half and ookout G) held our opponents to one field goal, while on the other hand we made the greater part of our 11 points during that half. Our next game was with Hopkins on our own floor and proved to he the most hotly contested game of the season, as the score, which was 8-6, readily indicates. ‘Toad” played a “whale of a game” at guarding by breaking up any and practically all of Hopkins' attempts to make a close-in shot. It might be added that he played that same brand of basketball throughout the entire season. In contrast to last year’s game, we won from Excelsior with an ample score of 29-9. It turned out to be the most easily won game of the season, and furthermore it was the last conference game in which we came out on top. Evidently we were not destined to win the laurels from St. Louis Park for on February 25 we were defeated on their floor, 22-17. They had a five-man defense that could not be penetrated. They were used to their small floor and consequently sank the greater part of their baskets from beyond its center. However, competent guarding of that part of the floor would undoubtedly have won the game for us. On March 2, we played our last conference game, which was with St. Louis Park. Ours was not to win. They outplayed us to a score of 21-15. Again poor guarding from the center of the floor was largely responsible for our defeat. This game will or should be a marked event in Wayzata basketball history, for “Toad,” becoming disgusted at the way we were “muffing” the ball and missing baskets, took matters in his own hands. He impatiently took the ball away from a Park man, who was about to shoot a basket, doubled half-way to the center of the floor and nonchalantly ran his first and last basket of the season. A thing noted, indeed. We also played four practice games, one with Blake, Minnetonka Mills, and two with Deephaven.

An old. old saying. The girls' team decided ilia! maybe there was something to it. so they adopted it as their motto literally. Just notice what the results were. They won every game except one, and that game, the one with Hopkins at Hopkins, was played before they had decided to have that motto for their very own. The Mound game was the fastest, the peppiest, and, due to an error, the longest game of the season. The game with Hopkins here was a game that resulted in the loss of a great amount of epidermis. At that, wc came off the victors. The first St. Louis Park game was characterized by many fouls and a close score in our favor. The last and the saddest game of the year was the game we played with St. Louis Park here. To us the outstanding feature was the few moments when the team, composed entirely of Seniors, played. We were sad. not that we lost, for we won 22-8. but to think that we had played our last game for dear old Wayzata High. Dec. Jan. Jan. Feb. Feb. Mar. 2—Wayzata.

SENIOR SOCIETY If you happened to wonder why the Seniors were so sleepy Thursday, January 23, why the teachers only called on them for review lessons, why Helen Peck wasn’t at school, and why Mabel Johnson was so stiff, here's the reason: Miss Hoi- dahl furnished the “eats and we furnished the toboggans for a toboggan party Wednesday evening. The costumes were appropriate. Roland clumped around in a pair of Bob’s boots, and Donald had to borrow a pair from Clifford's Dad. Mr. Selkc’s red sweater had a decidedly cheering effect. Bob brought a “varying number of sweaters.” and Viola borrowed a pair of goloshes from someone, unknown as yet. And horrors!!! Most of the girls wore knickers. We rode up on the toboggans “hitched” to the back of the car. Everything went well until some of the tobogganers took a spill, which broke up the party. Bob turned ambulance driver, Pat emergency nurse, and hurried Helen to a doctor. The remaining few found a less steep slide with a bigger bump. Roland took two loads and the rest walked back. Every once in awhile Marie was taken for a little boy who had drifted in with the wrong bunch. Arriving hungry, we found hot oyster stew, pie. and coffee prepared by Miss Hoidahl and Miss Keuhnc. Mr. Henkel and the boys threw crackers at each other, and Clifford’s “spooky coffee furnished much entertainment. Afterwards everyone turned in and helped clean up. SENIOR FEED “Now you find the place and I’ll furnish the eats, was the suggestion to the Senior class by their advisor. “Sure, we’ll do that.”—“Urn! Just watch us.”—“That isn’t hard—” etc. So ran the tenor of the replies. The place finally decided upon was the same at which the now dignified Seniors lia I frolicked and sported when they were care-free and gay Sophomores. How that Thursday afternoon dragged! “I just know that clock is slow. It is. My watch is ten minutes fast by it now. “Say, if we’re going to walk we’d better start early!” These and many other exclamations were heard in the Library, the Assembly Room, and the Corridor. Oh. yes. some walked, some sauntered, a few rode in state, and others just naturally arrived in time. The bread knife plus one or two jack-knives were kept busy sharpening willow twigs for the wieners and marshmallows (incidentally keeping some of the boys out of mischief). What were the girls doing? Oh. helping Miss Hoidahl and chattering among themselves. Soon the order—“Fall to’’— came—and let me tell you there was some falling to. By the time supper was over, some of the boys felt sure they had mastered the art of cooking. Ask the dignified Treasurer of the Senior Class who insisted upon cooking his wieners in the coffee until Miss Hoidahl convinced him that the combination would be neither palatable nor appetizing. When all had eaten until they were sure that they could not find space for another mouthful, the members thought of Home, Sweet Home. A few lagged behind and— what did they do? Now that would be telling, but at any rate, the moon was wonderful, and so was the water. But that’s another story entirely. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF— Irvin Osier quit chewing gum? John Peterson recited in American History? Priscilla Milbert flunked? Ailcen couldn’t play basketball? Toad didn’t talk so much in English? Clifford Kysor was as wise as he looked? Francis F. should happen to fall in love with—Chemistry? Louise Mills got to class on time? Bob S. wouldn't butt in when Mr. Selkc talks? Irvin B. got to school on time? Mr. Selke was a crank? Doris Braden didn't make a mistake in typewriting? All book reports were handed in on time? CLASS OF 1923 IN 1933 AN INC been commissioned by Monsieur Coue to distribute bis books on “Auto-suggestion,' I set out at once on a tour through various states. Since I was to be gone for some time, I wished that 1 could see my old classmates of '23, before 1 left. As things turned out, my wish was to be fulfilled. I went back to visit the Wayzata High School. My, how it had changed! Oh, those beautiful white walls! They were black—with fingerprints! The desks were simply ruined by having initials cut into them with jack-knives—1 couldn't find mine. I saw a decidedly plump person having charge of an English Class. “Miss Hoidahl,” 1 began, whereupon she turned around and feature my astonishment—it was no one else than Priscilla Milbert. She then told me that she was the Wayzata H. S. Principal and had run Miss Hoidahl, alias Mrs. Blankety-Blank, out of office. Priscilla held a letter in her hand, and 1 recognized the writing. It was John’s— Priscilla had the grace to blush. I inquired of the pupils, and they told me that Miss Milbert was terribly rough. Why, if she caught them chewing gum, they were compelled to swallow it. Just think of it! I was thankful that my high school days were over. From there, I went to Minneapolis. Just as soon as I got oft' the bus, 1 was accosted by another plump personage. “Why, Hazel Jorgensen, what a surprise!’’ I began, but she interrupted me by saying, “I am Mrs. So-and-So, and then 1 noticed that she not only wore an engagement ring but also a gold band. We walked down to her apartment, which was near the Loeb Arcade, and here I spent an enjoyable, gossipy evening. That evening I received orders to go to the Western territory, so I hurried off to take the train for California. As I arrived in Hollywood early in the evening and could not do any business that day, I decided to attend one of those risque theaters I had heard about. I went to the heart of Hollywood and entered one of the largest theaters. The first number on the program was a classical dancing number, Ode to a Dying Buttercup, by Mine. Florines. It finally dawned upon me that the slim danseuse was Florence Paterson. It was announced that two popular pug-nosed actresses of Hollywood would do the “Bohemian Fling” and Florence and “Madame Alleand,” alias Aileen Stubbs, danced out of the footlights, clothed in cloud colored chiffon and rose petal gowns. They were light as air. After their act was over, I called on them. I inquired about Marie Fkstrom and how she was getting along with her interior decorating career. “Interior decorating is right,” laughed Aileen. “She’s got a husband to feed. I wasn’t at all surprised to hear it. They are living in Texas, where he is a cow-puncher. I had covered the required territory and received orders to go back Fast. I had to change trains in Cincinnati. It happened to be on Sunday, so I attended the jQokout “Little Church Around the Corner.” There seemed to he something familiar about the young minister—he was chewing gum—why, of course, it was Rev. Irvin Osier. After the sermon I went up to him, and we renewed our acquaintance. Me then told me that his parish wages were insufficient and, hoping to increase his income, he had bought a share in “Wrigley’s Juicy Fruit” stock. I caught the Eastbound train and on the train I picked acquaintance with a young man with curly, black hair. He told me his name was Mark A. Rooney and told me that he was a cousin to Vivian Rooney. He said that she was a dramatic art teacher at Rock Run, North Carolina. If you wish to hear her broadcast over the radio, send in a call to the Carolines, X. Y. Z. Shortly before we reached Indianapolis, the train ran into a cow. The impact was so great that some of the passengers were slightly bruised. I was taken to the hospital. The next day I was able to be up, so I wandered about the hospital. A pretty nurse told me that there was a case of sleeping sickness, and I could go in and see the patient if I wished. “Miss Talbert, your name seems familiar to me,” I began. “Why, you are Viola!” She showed me through the ward and told me that the patient was Stanton Lundberg. Poor fellow! How often he was scolded at school for being sleepy and he just couldn't help it! The next day Viola informed me that patient 333, or rather Stanton, was awake and on the road to recovery. I went to speak to him. and the old fellow was delighted to see me. I inquired about bis illness and he said that before being taken to the hospital he had worked at one of the “57 Heinz” factories, picking warts off pickles. It was too hard work. Much to my regret, I had to leave for Detroit, Michigan, that afternoon. On my arrival there, I was very much surprised to see a new type of car, very common in Detroit, it was a “Mann” car and it seemed to rival the Ford car in number. I decided to visit the well known Ford plant, and when I asked an officer the way, he pointed out a large building which had “Mann Car Co.” painted on the sides. I was curious to see the new plant, so I entered the building and asked the foreman who owned it and where the Ford plant was. “No more Ford plant. Miss Heisterman bought Henry Ford out and is putting out a new type of car,” he said. “Miss Margaret Heisterman?” I gasped. “Sure thing,” he replied. As I was leaving the building, a beautiful Rolls-Royce car glided up and Margaret jumped out. We exchanged greetings, and Margaret gave me a lift to the station. On the way, we talked of our old classmates I had met and she told me that Louise Mills was teaching Sunday School in Stubbs Bay. My, how she has changed. Near the station we entered a Quick Lunch Shop and ordered coffee and doughnuts. The doughnuts were delicious and had the words “Kysor’s Special” printed on them. ookout G) “Why,” questioned Margaret, “didn’t you know that Clifford Kysor has the largest bakery east of Chicago?” My next stop was New York and I longed for the Great White Way. As 1 was sauntering down Fifth Avenue, I noticed a beauty parlor near the Metropolitan Theater. Through the window I saw Emma Short giving a customer a henna dye. I went in and spoke to her for a while. The actresses were her best customers, so she had to hurry back and help, although she was the proprietress. The play at the theater was “Mud and Sand” and in the leading actor, Rhubarb Vasoleno, I recognized—Roland Smith. After the drama, a boxing match was to take place between Jack Dempsey and “Toad” Talbert—why it must be Robert Talbert, and sure enough it was. The way “'l oad” knocked Jack out was a fright! The public clamored for a speech, and in it he said that he owed his success “due to the fact” that he had adhered to such rigid rules as “no smoking or drinking” while attending Wayzata High School down in old Minnesota. A few days later I was involved in a lawsuit concerning the books I was distributing. “The Independent Magazine” had printed a misstatement about them. They said it was “humbug,” and Monsieur Coue instructed me to sue them. 1 went to the office of the “Independent” and announced that I wished to see one of the “Independent Staff.” I was shown into a room where Blanche Hallock listened to my tale of woe. I noticed that when she typed, the diamond on her third finger seemed to be in the way. From there 1 went to sec a reliable lawyer and after climbing several (lights of stairs I saw the sign, “M. Compton—Attorney at Law.” There was Milton, the old boy, dictating letters to his private secretary, Miss Dorothy Nelson. After settling the case, we talked of days gone by, and Milton asked if I knew where he could get another secretary. Dorothy was leaving his employment as she was going to wear orange blossoms that June. There was a big circus in the Madison Square Garden, and I decided to see that before I went abroad. 'The fat lady was just as fat as ever—Pearl Kreatz, I mean. Of course, 1 had to go to see the Hawaiian dancing. Mabel Johnson was the leading dancer. After the sprightly performance, I went to speak to Mabel, and, much to my surprise. I learned that she was again a believer in single blessedness. I took a passage on the ship “Sock In the Wash” from New York to France. The sailor who was scrubbing the deck seemed familiar—no wonder—it was Francis Filiatreau. At the present he was writing a book on “My Adventures Through Foreign Land and a Sailor’s Log.” “Filly” was overjoyed at the news that “Toad had licked Jack Dempsey. Sarah Eastman was also aboard the same ship. She was going to Paris to bring back to the U. S. some of the latest “flapperetta” styles. From her I obtained the knowledge that Helen Peck and Donald Collier had organized a missionary musical expedition to Turkey. Helen played the saxophone, and Donald the harmonica. A ring chaperoned them. c ) A V ill Jjookout Shortly after my arrival at the Hotel Francais, in Paris, I was tackled by an agent. She wished to sell me some “Reduce to Music” records. It was Doris Braden. After much argument I convinced her that Coue's method was better and succeeded in selling her one of the books—the first one, too. It was from her that I learned that Reginia Hyberg had written one of the popular novels of the day “Fain Street,” and that she was teaching Psychology at the “U” of Minnesota. The next morning while propping the newspaper up to keep the grapefruit from squirting in my eye, I noticed the headline—“Pretty American Girl Swims Across the English Channel,” and in the following column—Miss Ardis Erickson, the first American girl to swim across the English Channel, owes her success to the amount of practice obtained while living at Parkers Lake, Minnesota, United States of America. I had my appointment with Monsieur Coue and found him eating an “Esquimo Pie.” He told me that an American was manufacturing it in France, a Mr. Spencer. Of course, it could be none other than Robert M. Spencer, the Esquimo Pie King of Europe. Long live the King! After my conference with Dr. Coue, I decided to go back to good old U. S. A. with pleasant memories not only of Dr. Coue and his kindness but also pleasant memories of all my classmates. -------So now I write----------Finis--------The End. SENIOR TOBOGGAN Oh.

But the tragedy of the last! But Helen didn't go—neither did Mabel nor Pearl. We walked— A jolly crowd, shouting and laughing. Playing tag and the like- Down the slide we went with a whizz and a bang. Sometimes we upset, but then It only shortened the tiresome uphill climb. Finally we began to get rather cold And extremely hungry. So we schoolward journeyed. Sh—Sh—it is rumored—Mr. Henkel got his face washed. By whom? Ask him. Hot Dog!! Dill Pickles!!

When Aileen Stubbs was captain of the team (That famous athlete of Wayzata High) When Carrie Keller won such high esteem (To make a basket she did always try.) The centers? Ah! here’s where our players shone Kosella Keesling here, with Myrtle Kloss. A “fumbled ball for them was quite unknown. With perfect pass the ball to forwards crossed. The guards were ever struggling fiercely on Relentless with opponents on the floor; Said guards were “Pat and Hazel. They had fun When they found out we had the largest score. Our substitutes were always on the job; They helped us win a game more times than one. No accident in games could make them sob; They were there to help us in each game we won. These substitutes were Hurriet and Jane, Miss Ileistermann and Cynthia Batson too. Marie. Viola and Elsie won some fame; Pearl Keller and Sarah were the other two. In closing now, let’s say the team was good Thanks to the efforts of our coach so fine The Championship we won, so high we stood In rank beside the other teams in line. We hud a coach, a wondrous coach was he And Basketball we know from A to “Z.” OUR WINNING TEAM With Luther we had no trouble. Mound sure was a lunch.

The necessity in this case was money, otherwise known in slang as “Bloody Lucre,” and a very appropriate name it is—sometimes. However, the money taken in at the Carnival was gained neither by bloody nor foul means. It all came about like this. The Seniors (God bless their ambitious little selves) needed, wanted, and had to have money to put out their annual with any degree of success. There were a great many suggestions by as many individuals as to what method to use to acquire necessary money, but none seemed to lit the case. Whose idea it was to give a carnival. 1 do not know. At any rate we all know it was a “rip snorting good idea. There were big posters, good posters, bad posters, clever posters, crude posters, neat posters, snappy posters. Robert’s posters, and Fillies posters. Fillie's posters were good, and Robert's were Oh! Oh! -Well, pretty good. It didn't make any difference. Good or bad—they were posted and posted all over (even if I do exaggerate a little) Christendom. So much for posters. As you all know, or soon will, the carnival promoted everything from a boxing match to a fat woman. To tell the truth, it is rather vague in my mind just how one could promote a fat woman at a carnival. If there were ever any rare and priceless articles, animals, and cannibal species to be seen, the carnival was the place to see them. It took a great deal of research work, excavating and exploring to secure all those objects of wonder you beheld in the museum. The acrobats and clowns had at least two or three weeks of severe training in the gym. The swanlike dancers escaped the tiresome hours of rehearsing. But when the big night arrived we were all “raring to go, as also before the night was o’er, we were “raring to quit. Taking it all in all, including little Robert, who how! wowed” the whole evening, the carnival was a success. K. K. (WITH APOLOGIES TO RING GARDNER) Wyzetta min. May 19, 1922. dcre al.

(1 wonder what the joke is. Everyone in the assembly is laughing.) I know not whether it is owing to an immoderate love for the simplicity (That Boh Spencer is the worst giggler!) of former times or to that certain tenderness of heart incident (That’s the third time Myron has gone for a drink this period.) to ail sentimental historians (Pat has a new dress—a circular skirt, too) hut I candidly confess that I cannot look upon the happier days (What is Mr. Selke putting up on the bulletin board?) which I now describe, without the great dejection of spirit (Aileen and Marie will never get their English if they don’t stop pestering that little Ernst hoy) with faltering hand I withdraw the curtain (He is awful cute though) of oblivion that veils the modesty of our venerable ancestors (The hell is ringing.

Crowds of ambitious-looking students cram the halls, and there is a buzz of voices everywhere. Occasionally you can hear a voice: “What are you taking this year?” or “Say, can you imagine me taking Higher Algebra?” We go into the assembly room and join in the high school song vigorously, after which we are treated to, “No one may leave this room without permission. It seems good to hear that familiar voice as you go down the hall. “No talking in the halls. or perhaps it is in the library, You don't belong in here—go into the assembly.” The afternoon passes amid welcomes, difficulties, and misunderstandings. Shortly after dismissal, we listen again to those words so sweet to human ear: .Say, kid, let me take your powder puff.” “Arc you going down town?” “Wait a minute, can't cha! As we are about to leave we hear, O. say 1 lost my glove!” or “Hey—where were you last period?” It is. of course, natural to hear a manly voice call— Get off my neck.” or “You are choking me, let me up.” “Where is my chin guard?

They will come garbed in the specified attire ami present the proper credentials. Humbly yours. THE SOPHOMORE CLASS. THE INITIATION TfF you have ever been a Sophomore, I know you have gone through the thrills of being initiated. TJ After the preliminary inspection to see whether or not we possessed the white stockings and grass rings, or no neckties and a piece of wood, we were allowed to enter through the East Portico. I shall now proceed and tell you my own experience, for I am sure that my feelings were commonly shared by the Sophomores. My two guides were not as gentle as they might have been, for they tied a towel so tight around my head that I thought my head would split. I asked them to loosen it, but they—do you suppose they would do it? Oh. no! that was good for me. They twirled me several times, and one guide said in a low sepulchral tone. “Stoop! Lower! Lower! Watch out for your head! As I didn’t desire a broken head. I stooped and stooped and stooped some more. I found out later that there wasn’t anything there. Now my other guide said. “Up. Up! Since 1 had the full use of my mind and limbs, you needn't think I was going to be carried up. In getting up where my guides wanted me to be. I was ordered to turn around and go down backwards. “Now watch out or you will fall into a chasm of boiling tar! Beware! Beware!’’ e G) L=m gokout Now I just knew that there wasn't any tar. hut 1 wasn’t going to take any unnecessary risks. Ah! what a creepy sensation it gives one to step backward into space. Aha! A deep breath! SAFE! I was led somewhere—I don’t know just where. Suddenly we halted, and I was ordered to put my hands into the hands of the Sphinx. I hesitated a moment. In a second, one was clasped in the icy folds of a hand and the other placed in something warm. Isn’t that a funny feeling to have one hand hot ami the other cold? I was then told to crawl through the cold air chute and on emerging I had to write my name in hieroglyphics on the blackboard over my left shoulder with my left hand. Then I had to sing as loud as I could. And as low as 1 could. How funny my voice sounded! Behind me 1 could hear the suppressed giggles of my guides. Next I was led down a zigzag path—sometimes I was on my heels ami sometimes on my toes. Again I was ordered to step high. Believe me, I stepped. Then I had to walk on something sharp. I was told that now I was in the Detention Hospital where I had to sit on a low stool and meditate on my past sins and to get into the proper frame of mind for the coming operation. Such treatment as I received. Ugh! It makes me get a snaky feeling up and down my spine. “Open your mouth!” came a hoarse command. I thought at first I would be stubborn, but on second thought, 1 did as I was ordered. These are the Eyes of your Grandfather! Now eat them. With that, was shoved into my mouth two slimy, slippery, salty, watery things. Ugh! How awful they tasted! There were three more trials to pass through in that room. At the next table I was told that I had a raging fever and to lower the temperature 1 had to eat. Of course, as I was rather fond of raw potatoes anyway, raw potato dipped in bitter chocolate wasn't so bad. At the third table, I was to get some sustenance to bear me up for the next ordeal. I was to get a bite out of the Hole of Life.” What was it? Oh. nothing except a doughnut rolled in soda. Now for the last ordeal in that room, the dose that was to cure me of all ills present, past, and future. It wasn’t so evil-smelling as it was evil-tasting—sickeningly so. Still blind-folded, I was brought to the Gym where I had to crawl through the tunnel (gym apparatus) and up the spring of life (a bed spring), walk the straight and narrow path (a shower-room bench), crawl through some iron hoops, kiss Minnetonka Stone (rock salt), smoke the pipe of peace (two-for-a-cent licorice pipes , and then swear allegiance to the High and Mighty Juniors and Seniors. At last the blindfold was off! 1 was duly initiated. Just wait until our class initiates a class. We’ll get even! Our_5u P TRe. A.C kv A r cl ft . Va r f?)
