22 QUIXIAULT Eli'tmna' of Hlara RS. thou who sirt called God of War, of Manly Attributes and Mighty Avenger, I call thee Slave, for that thou art, iu truth, of Mammon. Cowering behind the name of insulted Nations and blood wrongs, thy Master bids thee loose thy dogs of Hell and create Havoc among peoples whilst he with stealthy tread and incarnadined talons tears the bare subsistence from stark forms and stiffening grasp of suffering victims of thy Cruelty. Well may ye bide thy leering face behind the tinsel and brocade of uniforms and glint of guns with their accompaniment of martial music since Time itself cannot efface the records of thy wrongs. On desert sands, in frigid cold, in fever swamps, on mountain heights, thick strewn lie whitening bones and leering skulls, grinning at the newer and newer generations of fools who vainly follow thy mocking voice of Conflict. And they, once the strength and sinew of the world but hurled by thee to blackest Eternity whilst in squalid hut and decaying hovel the widows and orph’ans of the lost, crouch over dying embers! Aye! Coward! that thou art, calling the brawn and stalwart to thy blood red standard in the name of Patriotism.' False cree l of thy Master’s fiendish imagination which blinds the eyes of Man to Reason and brings before the diseased vision a Mirage of phantom Glory and false Duty. But thy Doom is sealed. Man’s sleep is through. The Awakening is inevitable. Bloodshed and carnage with their symbols of strident music and harsh cry of musketry shall be consigned to Eternal Oblivion.

QUINIAULT 21 er aspirations for the future. New pilots were to he chosen and the affairs of another successful year were wisely entrusted to the guidance of Frederick Hart, president; Ellen Arnold, vice president; Eunice Kem-men, secretary, and Ira Glidden, treasurer. Again we found our representatives scoring touchdowns, shooting baskets and wielding the hat. As orators we, as before, stood forth pre-eminently. In this year Frederick Hart and Russell Mack were both members of the team which won the championship of the state. Winning both first and second places in the local contest of 1910 proved our success in declamation. Chapter III. By the beginning of our third year our class had been augmented by many scholars, who, having heard the name of our institution and of our class heralded abroad, had come to join our illustrious band. Enthusiasm seemed to have exhausted its energy and the first semester passed quietly and uneventfully from the school calendar. But when the Christmas vacation had become past history, the whirlwind began. “The Ocean Breeze” was revived after a year of dormant inactivity and it called for our literary and business co-operation with the Seniors. Elections were also numerous and the halls were filled with politicians seeking to poll a large vote for their candidate. And then there was the “Junior Issue” of the school’s official publication. This was. indeed, one of the best editions of the year and proved both an artistic and literary triumph. The fantastic Junior Prom still remains unrivaled as a school social event, both for beauty of decorations and large attendance. The Exodus. The tribe had grown to be powerful, populous and learned and wise officials were necessary to the proper management of our affairs. The administration of the previous year, although glorious and renowned, had been extravagant, so the class demanded Walpoles to fill our depleted treasury. The presidential race had narrowed down to a keen, but nevertheless good matured rivalry between Archer and Benjamin. And in the final test of ballots the latter won by a majority of one vote. Other members of the regime were Elmer Johnson, vice president; Laura Ben-ham. secretary; Blaine MeGillieuddy. treasurer, and Killalv Greene, ser-geant-at-arms. Nor was it class policies alone that engrossed our attention, for during this period our representatives faithfully served the school as members of the editorial and business departments of “The Ocean Breeze.” We have also given two of our favorite sons to act as Presidents of the Athletic Association. It is due greatly to our perseverance, our aid and our ability that the great deficit, which was left by last, year’s graduates, has been lifted from the school’s official publication. Forty-four graduates have now completed their course in the A. II. S. The greatest trials still remain before us. for our future success means more to the honor of the school than our present triumph. And remembering this axiom, let us now and forever strive by our own efforts and our own zeal to enhance the name of our class and of our school far beyond the realms of our city.
