After much arguing and discussing the girls dt-A cided that the aviator wanted to meet Blanch at the landing. which was on the northern outskirts of the city. It never occurred to the girls that the aviator might have lllvallf this queer message for some one else. The next morning at eight o'clock. the girls inet at Blain-h's holne. They had given it much thought and now considered it to he a lark. They laugh'-il and talked llllllfll as they walked to the aeroplane landing. They reached this about an hour later. Vlfhile dancing and eapering about. one of the girls kicked over a brick. As it rolled over. she saw a pieee of paper tied to it. She quickly showed it to her Cl'11llllS. On the paper was type-written these lines: HB.. when I come. step into the front seat of the plane. lt is for the best. The girls could not speak for a few minutes. They all started to talking at the salne tinie. Some of the more timid thought it was a plan to kidnap Blanch. Others encouraged Blanch to do it. saying that the aviator would only give her a ride. Tlu-re was a hahhle of voices. First she was swayed by the timid and then by the more bold. At this juncture a huge aeroplane hove in sight. The girls innnediately became quiet. The great plane circled around for a few minutes and then gracefully settled on the circle. It ran over to the girls and stopped. Blanch stood as if frozen in her tracks. Some of the girls pushed Blanch forward and mechanically, she stepped into the plane. The helnieted aviator immediately speeded up the still running niotor and rose in the air. Vp at ti considerable distance, he shot the plane along at ninety miles an hour. Blanch swooned at first. but the rushing air brought her to. The machine iiew about tive miles and then gracefully settled to the ground. The aviator instantly was out of his seat and helped Blanch to the ground. He tore off his goggles and hehnet.

There's always somewhere a weakest spot, In rim, tire, wheel, in spring or tliill. In door or axle or tioor or sill. In crank, starter, brake-a lurking still, Find it somewhere you must and will!

He would build one car to run around In country, in desert, in city or town: He'd build it so it could not break down: For, said this maker, It's very plain, The weakest spot must stand the strain, And the way to fix this thing, I guess, Is to make this place as strong as the rest. So the maker strove, as makers must-- For he swore he'd make this car or bust. So he made it of iron and boards he could trust. He made the lights so they could not breakg He made the seat for conifort's sake, And he made her to go thru river and lake. In making the engine' that's where he scored: For he made it lots better than that of a Ford: And he made the foundation of iron, not board. The car cannot rattle when taking a spin. For he made it of iron and left out the tin: In fact he made it so nice and new He painted her up and I'm thru. Thru! I tell you! I rather guess She is a wonder, and nothing less. We have used her, abused her, both night and day And have used her after Pa got grey, And the kids have gotten too big to play, But still our little old Chevrolet Is as good as it was on its first birth-day. Birth-days have passed, as birth-days do, But our old car is just as good as new, As when the maker made her so true. Oh, my! so many years ago. A t .90 U I 1 1 L W 1 , , NineteenV hundred and eight ,en came, My c-lr was running just tht' same. I-Iow many more years willl come Before I'll have to foot it lfome? While lifting up my one-ni an top, 'gl heard a spring or something pop, And when I looked, I tho lght I knew My car had done about he do. But I said 1'll take just one more ride With my darling girlie by my side, I took her down a country lane, To tell her of my love again. My car had made a. hill on high, A hill that almost touched the sky: A I was as happy as could be Till my old car she stopped on me. My girlie, said, Oh, it needs more hay. I answered, Dear, no time to play! This stopping short so worried me, I forgot to tell of my love, you see: But said instead, We must walk back in. And get a car and take a spin. Of course this was a tragedy Oi all car owners surely see, So I just cussed the Chevrolet, As I had nothing else to say. So when I weary, full of pain, Was resting safe at home again, I heard somebody calling me To hurry up and come and see! I went: and something met my gaze-- It left me standing in a daze, For some good man had brought my car, And said: Sir, she is sure some star: I never saw a better one, And I have looked from sun to sun, And let me tell you she can run. ' The reason why she stopped on you 'f Was not because she'd lost a screw, rv 'N , But because you thought about the lass iiiigagid forgot to fill her up with gas. if-I5 -LOUISE TAYLOR . 3, . , .T ,GY 1.

His Ford was heard in front of the gate. And then with heart that was light and gay, He laughed to himself in a jubilant' way. And blew his horn for the maiden trim, XNhom he wished to go on a ride with him. She canie to the door with a joyous air, And Wanted fifteen minutes to spare. And then for fifteen minutes he sat In the little Ford and held his hat. He waited and sighed for the maiden trim, XVho had promised to go for a ride with him. Until, as the great town clock struck eight, He muttered, Great Scotts, it is getting late. And beat a tattoo on the little For-d's door. And waited for fifteen minutes IIXOTQ. And thought of those shady spots upon the way, And then midnight came, and then the break of day. That day and the next, and the next one, too, He sat and waited the long hours thru. The time flew on and the years sped by, And he still waited with expectant eye. And lengthening beard, for the maiden VVho'd promised to go for a ride with him. Until one night, as with palsied hand, He sat in the Ford, for he couldn't stand, And drummed in an aimless way. She came, And opened the door with her withered frame. The moon's bright rays touched the siivered hair Of her, who had fifteen minutes to spare. And then in tones that he strained to hear, She spoke, and said: Are you ready, dear? -TRUETT NEAL I fx fx rg! -1 SQ M5 1 T HIGH SOPHOMORES Ruth Mm-Natt CuI'l1vllii Hood Myrtle Barliam Lavenia Isbell Ina Harris Geurggiv Vaughn Lillian Jones Fannin Dennis Flossie Parkinson Nona Holland lllary VVingo Elizabeth Kinder Grady Luthridge John Rivves VVard DQXVQQS Vester Jones Landon Pipkin lllurris Brmlils Claytuii Urn Ollie Neal Fran:-es Fant Spurgeon Reyimlcls Arthur Cato George Huffman Robert Neal Bertha K6llPll1lRl1 Louise Laughlin Paulina Curtis Ben Kvbelnlan Maida Buchanan Jim Fvrgusuii Allen Edwards Bessie Robbin Fay Sears .A NY THE FATE'S DECREE Once upon a, time, in the dark age of nineteen liunlred and seventeen, the famous Virgilonian Instructor of the Roman liaiigiisiuwi sat in his high seat of honor.

Wringing the tears from his sodden handkerchief, he sent them rolling merrily down the hall. like Niagarag and established his strength onee more to review the task hefore him. Slowly he rested again on his throne. his faee red with anguish illltl-El girl was passing the door. Om-e more. he glued his organs of sight to the seats hefore him, while his poor heart heat so loudly that the students in the hall of honor, thinking it to he an aeroplane. abandoned their plaees of esteem and tied to the periscopie windows of that vast edifit-e of knowledge. Hut the wreteln d Instructor sat limply on his throne. Seenes of misery swam like whales hefore his eyes-scenes of funeral pyres, amassed with various and sundry Latin Pupils -visions of base and pertidous villains with horns longer than the lessons that he had assigned them. llgh!

How mueh longer must his veins surge with iee water. in anticipation of the horrihle li nur that was to e:nne'? Gradually, with a deterniination as hard as the third eonjugation. he pulled together his spirits and tied them in a hundle. plat-ing them within his reach for future emergencies. lrresolutely. his wavering hands hegan to turn the leaves of the book of wisdom, Could he endure onee more to gaze upon those names? And yet they were honorable men-all, all honorable men. Once again his heart jumped wildly to the eeiling and hack again-the door was ereaking on its hinges. Firmly, he gripped the arms and hands of his chair. Slowly, but surely, his brain was returning to him and, though his fears still held him rigid, he arose and prepared himself for the last moments of his lifeg as, slowly-to the music of the ereaking shoes of a young mathema- tician in the distance through the open corridors rushed in--the Sophomore Latin Class.

The Freshman is the pioneer who goes hcfore and blazes the way for others to follow. He is the stepping stone on which the Senior places his foot to reach up and grasp higher and better things. He is the foundation upon which the higher classes build. Ile is the Senior ot tomorrow. These things are especially true of the Freshman class of VVeatl1ertord High School. So let us. the Freshman class of 1918. do great things in the his- tory of our school, so that we may make the trail plainer and easier for others to follow. XVe are bound inseparahly to the life and fortune of our school. Let us stand together as one mighty body and show to our school that we are truly Worthy of all it has given us. Together we stand. divided we fall. May our motto through the coming years of our school be, '5Not quantity. but qualitygu and may we strive to our utmost to maintain the honor and glory our school has given us. so that when we have reached such a high summit in our school life we can surely say: Morning is here. and the night fadeth away.

QATHLETICS True education consists in the harmonious development of the body and mind. This cardinal principle has come to be thoroughly recognized by every school, and VV. H. S. is no exception to the rule. Her attainments in athletics have takentlieir place among the best, and her future in this phase of develop- ment, based on theirocl: of a g owing past, looms out before her with brilliant possibilities. The teams reported for practice withgreat enthusiasm, and lar- ger crowds attended the games. This showed that athletics was coming to be better liked in Weatherford. Tho we did not win every time, we showed our opponents that We were scrappers. We are always on the move and in-good spirit, tho we be losing, The work of athletics has been highly gratifying to the authorities as well as beneficial to the students. Greater plans for athletics are being made for the next year, and when commencement arrives many students will lift their hats to a greater Weath- erford High School in athletics.

Our next game was with the Masonic Home of Fort NVorth. The score was rather one-sided, being 237 to O in their favor. but the Hi boys deserve the credit of playing their best until the last whistle blew. i Again we played the li. of P. boys of XVeatherford, and we were successful in defeating them 2 to U. after they had forced us to tight hard to win. For our fourth game we played our old rivals, the High School of Mineral Wells. Our boys outplayed Klineral XVells, but ill luck favored us. so they won in the best game of the season by the score of 7 to 6. The brick wall formed by our line was the feature of the game: never once did Mineral XVells make a gain thru it. Next we played Granbury High School team and they won by the score of 7 to 6. VVhile we suffered defeat, the defeat was great. as the best team did not win. The sixty-yard run of -lack Vllard, our gritty halfback, througli the Granbury eleven was the feature of the game. Our sixth game was played with Thorp Springs Christian College. a team out of our class. The game was characterized by the fighting spirit of the lligh School team, which did not admit defeat until the whistle blew. l'lie score was 2T to O. Not so bad when you consider a team of their class. At last luck came our way and we defeated Granbury High ,HI To fi. XVeatherford completely played them from their feet the entire game. The feature was the perfect passing of Kuykendall, our star full, to our ends. Ilfor- gan and Kirkpatrick. which netted many long gains. Again luck followed us. for in the next game with John Tarletoii fdwllegfi' of Stephenville, the feature of the game was the playing of Stewart. Ward an-l Big Kirk. our back lield men. Every man made long gains thru the lines and on end runs. which went to make the score 66 to O in our favor. After issuing challenges to tthe High School of Mineral lVells. Fort l.Voirtli and many other places, we finally secured the 1-Hth lnfantry team of Camp Howie. Fort lVorth. On Thanksgiving day we played them for our ninth and last game of the season. XVe defeated the boys in khaki by the score of 37 to The feature of thc game was the playing by the entire team of the VVeatherford High School, and the 70-yard run of the soldier boys' quarter back for their only touchdown. And thus closed very successful season in football. There has not been mention of the main factor in the success of our ath- letics for this year. But the success of the football and baseball teams is wholly due to thc diligent work and training of Mr. Lipscomb. -w 21121 K ff ' fn Q 'I-f A W A r 'V ' ' . 1 . -N ra . ' u .J ,L N , . , 1 s '.

W' PUBLISHED Bv- .3 H- , I THE BASE CELUE3 WALLACE JOHNSON- Speck i e center Hel that he is a good iielder would not be a .e covers his .nd gwmtl livlmlcl' of Sl1U1 t l1llS fu cel1t6'1'. CLIFTON RIGGINS-''Bootlegger is the iirst sacker and he ha s his part of the diamond to perfection. He is the lead-off man and is almost sure to get on. He is a good batter and his timely raps have started many a rally. BRYAN HILL-4'Stit'fy is the shortstop of the tea.1n and is remarkable in covering tthe ground. Stifty that person that puts so much pep intlo the squad. CLARENCE DANVSON. Captain-Dawson is far the fastest and best sec- ond baseman in High school circles. llis lielding average can always be found at the top of the colump. A steady player. VIRGIL MITCHELL-- Mitch is that tall, lanky guy that camps about third base. He covers the base like he was raised there, and tfherc is none that get too hot for him to field. JAMES DAVVSON-4'-lint our catcher and a man for the job. His peg to the bases are terrilic and has stopped a great many thieves. FINIS KITYKENDALL-L'Kirk is that hard hitting pitcher you have heard so much about. Time after time he has been the means of starting che team to work with the stick. XVhen it comes to pitching Kirk is the main- stay of the staff. The stuff he puts on some of the balls makes lllally a heavy hitter lay down his stick with a sigh and a grunt. JACK YVARD- Big Jackl' has one of the fastest balls, with a quick hop on it, that 'has been seen for a long time. He has made several records that would be hard to beatg striking out seventeen men in each of two gain-es, and one of these was a no-hit, no-run game, allowing only two men to reach first base.. SAM LEIPER- Frog Hair is the right fielder and he covers his terri- tory well and is also a fair swinger of the stick. XVALTER STEVVART- Study plays left field and is always under the ball when it comes his way. Although he does not always hit! them, he makes the fielders nervous every time he comes to the plate. FRED PERKINSON, Manager- Perk always keeps the team with plenty of games, and is a very clever pitcher, although he did not work in any games this season. ' HOWARD HODGES, Sub.- Chitty, catcher and outfielder. A fielder has no time to lose when Chitty lays one down. TRICKEY VVAR-D-- Shag is another one of o11r pitchers and a brother of Big Jack. A good curve ball pitcher and also a good hitter. K p 'L BASE BALL For our lirst game we played the K. of P. Home of XV83.lZll6l'fUl'Cl. lVe won this game by the score of 9 to T. lfllll' next. game was with the Masonic Home of Fort XVorth. It is needless to say they won this game T to Our third game was played in Fort XVorth with North Side High School. XVe should have won this game as we outplayed them in every stage of the game. The pitching of Jack NVard of VV. H. S. was the feature of the game-1 he fanned eighteen men. The stick work was also good, Dawson getting a home rim the first time at bat, and Mitchell getting two three-baggers. The last inning was played in the dark and as the pitcher could not see the plate, the bases were walked full and the winning run forced in. Score 7 to 6. Next came the Carlyle Military School of Mineral VVells. Through the steady pitching of Kuykendall we defeated this bunch of ex-leaguers by a score of 12 to 5. Only three school men were played, the rest being a bunch of men that had played for many years. Hill, our little shortstop, featured the game with his long three-base hit to left iield. The best game of the season was played with the Mining Team from Strawn. Jack VVard featured with his pitching, fanning seventeen men and allowing no hits. and only two men to reach first base. NVe won this game by the score of 2 to 0. The next game was at Mineral VVells with the Carlyle Military School. This being the same bunch of old heads. they managed to secure a score off 8 to 5 in their favor. For our seventh game we played Bryant Training School in Fort XVorth. VVe staged a battling rally during the entire game and won by the score of 26 to -1. The feature of the game was the pitching of Jack lVard, holding them scoreless to the eighth, when we changed pitchers and allowed them four scores. Next we played the Mineral VVells High School. This was a very inter- esting game. due to the fact that it went an extra inning. VVe won in the last -half of the tenth, wvhen the count was two strikes and one ball on Mitchell, our long and lanky third baseman. There were two outs and one man on base. If Mitch could get a hit it would mean a victory. Things went true to form and Mitch did hit, for he sent the ball far over the center fielder for three bases. Epham, our little first sacker, came home with the winning run and making the score 3 and 2 in our favor. The opposing pitchers were very edective and few hits were made. . Again we played Mineral VVells High, but this time luck was against us and they won by a score of 5 and 3. Mineral Wells won in the early part of the game when they hunched a few clean hits off Trickey Ward Big Jack relieved him and held them scoreless the remainder of the game. Several times we had chances to win by having men on bases. but the winning blow was no't delivered. A!
