We are glad to have mingled with yon in work, in l lay and in your rivalry during this time. We believe that in your youth, good health, high aspirations and noble enthusiasms you have the best possible equipment for your life’s work. Remember that your best words, deeds and actions are necessary elements in the formation of your own characters and you exert an influence over your friends which may enter largely into their characters. See wherein you can increase your efficiency and overcome the obstacles which beset your pathway. Fidelity to duty has been the distinguishing virtue of all who have risen to positions of trust and command. -The sense of work accomplished, of loyalty to school, of honest effort and duty done, should be yours in the fullest measure1. We feel assured that in the years to follow the various members of this class will so intertwine themselves among the undertakings and achievements of their respective communities as to retlect honor upon tin school from which they graduate. rhe Aberdeen High School will follow you in your coming endeavors, rejoice with you in your achievements, sympathize with ou in your temporary defeats and believe in you always. —GEORGE B.

Freshman Year. The entrance of the Freshmen into High School, was attended with the usual confusion and fearfulness; however, goaded on as it were, by the encouraging smiles of the teachers and the scornful jeers of tin upper class-men, the verdant ones began their four years ascent up the ladder of Progress. At the first meeting of the Freshman Class, the following officers were elected: Paul Vernon, President; Dorothy Watson, vice president; Doris Wilcox, secretary; and Eric Strommer, treasurer. Orange and Black were selected as the class colors, while the yellow rose was chosen as the class flower. Sarah Elway won the medal in the declamatory contest. Sophomore Year. At a class meeting held early in the semester, we elected the following officers: .Marion Crary, president; Dorothy Borden, vice president; Sarah Ivana, secretary, and Harry Martin, treasurer. We were worthily represented in debate by two of our members, and also in basket-ball by a fine first team. The second annual school picnic, which was held at Westport, was the most enjoyed event of the school year. Junior Year. In football the Junior Class was represented by Quick Keil and William Hugo, both stars of the first team; while in basket-ball we were ably represented by Cecil Turk. The efforts put forth culminated in second place in the interclass basketball series. The school championship was won by the girls’ basketball team and also by the junior debating team consisting of Arthur Williams and Dorothy Borden. —25— Q U I N 1 A U |j T The Junior Prom was a genuine success and exceptionally well attended. Junior officers were William Hugo, president; Macon Gibson, vice president; Joe Fox, secretary, and Eric Strommer, treasurer. The silver medal in the declamatory contest was awarded to Dorothy Borden. The third school picnic at Westport was marked with the usual success and good time. Senior Year. The last year has been decidedly successful in all branches of school activities. Officers for this year were: Tom O’Hare, president; “Quick” Keil, vice president; Doris Wilcox, secretary, and Dorothy Watson, treasurer. The German play, which was given under the direction of Miss Rupp, proved a very pleasing German comedy. Arthur illiams. the capable Editor of the Ocean Breeze was selected to edit this year’s Quinault. The Senior Class Play, “Charley’s Aunt.” coached by Miss Hobi, was the most successful comedy ever given by the Aberdeen High School students. 1 Ians are in progress lor a ('lass Night to be held the evening pre- (“ding Graduation on which occasion the Seniors are expected to par-ticipate. We were represented in Debate by Edward Remmelmeyer and in Football by seven first team men. I h “ foui tli annual school picnic was held at the renowned summer resort, Westport, and an excellent time was reported by all. In closing, we wish the Students, our Teachers and Successors the best of good luck. —JEANETTE HOGAN, ’17. q I! I X 1 A II L T Class $ropf)ccp Central—Number please?” Arthur—“One eight five Prospect.” Eric—“Hello, H-E-L-L-0 !” Arthur—“Hello, is this one eight five Prospect?” E.—“Yes.” A.—“Is .Mr. Stronnner there?” E.—“This is Mr. Strommer.” A.—“Hello, Ek. this is Art. I happened to notice in the paper that you were in Frisco so I thought I 'd call up. I’m at the St. Francis.” E.—Where in the name of Xerxes did you drop in from, Art?” A.—“I came in this morning from India on the ‘Alcazar.’ Been on a government survey on II. M. S. for the last five years. Lonesome hole that; if Sherman had ever been there he would certainly have substituted it for another in his well known idiom. By the way, Ek. what are you doing?” E.—“.Just at present I’m lecturing on natural science. I have been touring this country for the last year or two with my most famous lecture on the ‘Mental Ability of tin Angleworm.’ Been making a good thing out of it, too.” A.—“Do you lecture here tonight?” E.—“No, tomorrow night, the eighth. By George, Art, do you realize that this is June seventh, 1937?” A.—“Well, what of it?” E.—“Just twenty years after we graduated from the old Aberdeen Hi.” A.—“I guess you’re right. I hadn’t thought much about it. I haven’t seen or heard of any of our class except Dorothy Watson, since about 1922 or ’23.” E.—“And Dorothy’s about the only one I haven’t heard of or seen. Where did you see her?” A.—“Oh, she came out to India about four years ago with her husband. He’s an army officer, the ‘Duke of Dedbroke’.” E.—“So Dorothy’s a duchess?” A.—“Yep, and raising a couple of strapping little duklets. Speaking of Dorothy, what became of Doris?” E.—“Doris was elected to Congress last term on a ‘ten hours of housework for men’ platform. Catherine Miller was her campaign manager and I understand that she had Mark Ilanna backed off the map.” A.—“Whew! Class of Seventeen seems to have run strong to feminism. Guess it was because there were so few boys. Say, what became of the fellows that were called out with the Naval Militia? E.—“Carl McClung was the only one who stayed by the Navy as a —27— Q IJ I N I A U L T lift job. lie lias become invaluable in the signal service because lie saves the bother of erecting an aerial. Sarah and Russel were married, of course.” A.—“Where are they now?” E.—“Sarah has gone on the stage and made a hit on Broadway. She’s a peach of an actress and is advertised as the Divine Sarah II. I saw her last winter starring in ‘Quality, Not Quantity!’ Russel is her business manager and directs tin productions in which she appears.” A.—“And what’s become of Marian?” E.—“Oh, she’s writing fiction. I met her a couple of months ago in Tombstone, Arizona. She had just had her latest story accepted by the “Friday Morning Stake” and was nearly tickled to death about it. The story was ‘The Mystery of the Missing Link,’ or ‘Who Stole the Sausage?' They say she has Edgar A. backed off the dock at that kind of stuff. Next?” A.—“Jeanette Hogan?” E.—“She went East and studied under Herr Brush and later went to Europe. I saw her in Chicago last spring. She was traveling as accompanist to Josephine McNamee who has become famous as a concert singer. It seems they both went to France and married Frenchmen of artistic ability. They were, in fact, so artistic that they exterminated themselves in a duel, so the merry widows decided to tour America. They are appearing as Madame Ilinote der Scuiek and .Mademoiselle Jeanne I)e Ivreticler. A.—“What became of Gertie Goehrend and Grace Johnson?” E.—“Gertie and Grace? Oh, they conduct a “Sanitarium for Overworked Husbands” near Palm Beach. I understand they make a success of it because ‘Dim’ and ‘Cecil’ do the cooking. A.—“To return to the superior minority; what became of Tom O’Hare and Hank Callison?” E.—“They pulled through the war all right but came down fast when they tried a flyer in Wall Street. Tom went into partnership with Francis Slover in the ‘Superior Soap Soapoolfying Syndicate.’ They’ve built a little town of their own at Slivslotohoma. Indiana. They have a race course built around it and spend their spare moments trying out the merits of their automobiles. Hank reverted to science and is occupied in solving questions of economic importance. At present he is trying to find out why man, the lord of creation, pays $12 per pound for potatoes while a potato-bug gets his for nothing.” A.—“What became of Ed Remmelmever?” E.—“Ed has been spending the last ten years trying to convert the Esquimaux to the Single Tax theory of government. I saw him in Seattle several months ago. By the, way, I ran across Bruce Ellis in Seattle. He is clerking in the perfume department of the Bon Marche and has become quite a dude in his manner of dress. He told me that Lorentz Mattila was in town for a few days. He had just come back from the Fiji Islands where he won the pocket-pool championship and a gold medal as big as. a cart-wheel.” —28 Q U I N I A U L T A.—“What became of Julius Tobey?” E.—“Julius married Elva and they moved back to Elma. lie is easily the big man of the town weighing close on to four hundred pounds. I saw him on my last visit to tin Harbor. Lono is running a peanut and popcorn stand but is contemplating a move because his brother’s kids eat up all the profits of the business. Julius is giving dancing lessons. Speaking of dancing, you remember Sidney Ilyatt and Carrie Carman ?” E.—“I saw them last winter when I was in St. Louis. They were appearing in the “Imperial Siamese Ballet” and were making quite a hit. They studied for some years in Peking under the famous Hop Sing Chow.” A.—“What became of Elwood Hogan?” E.—'“ Elwood went in for motion pictures and at present is playing opposite Mary Donovan in the ‘Mercies of Mary’ or the ‘Romance of a Red Cross nurse.’ The pictures are quite the rage, I believe, and they are said to make enough money to permit them to have spuds and meat at the same meal.” A.—“Where is ‘Bill’ Axlandf” E.—“I saw him a couple of years ago last fall at the Pike County Fair Rubeville, Missouri. He was selling ‘Life Elixir’ at one dollar a bottle and they were going like hot cakes. That evening when I went out to the town pump to help him mix up a supply of ‘Elixir’ for the next day’s trade lie told me about some of the rest of the class. He said that he had seen Dora Jones. Loretta Wells, Mary Tornquist and Ellen Anderson in Argentine the year before. They were traveling with the Bangrang Brothers Circus as the ‘Four Flying Fishers.’ Their stunt was the aerial stuff and a good one. William Anderson was with the same show as ballyho and Sarah Ivana was private secretary to the boss himself. Bill also saw Maude Cosgrove, Irene Green, Alberta Prentiss and Julia Benson while he was knocking around in South America. It seems that they went down there to some little ham sandwich republic and started a revolution. They won out and the United States has recently recognized the Republic of Greprebeco with Julia Benson as its first president.” A.—“By the way, Ek, what be.....” Click! Clack! Bang! “Some- one certainly must want to butt in on our conversation.” E.—“1 hope they are enjoying themselves.” A.—“As I was going to say, what became of Winifred Paine and Dorothy Boutyette? They graduated in the mid-year class, you remember.” A.—“Sure. 1 remember them. They married a couple of brothers who were going into the interior of China to preach Socialism. T haven’t heard of them for four or five years. By the way. Art. you remember ‘Dinah’ Achey, don’t you? I heard the other day that he had gone to Africa and was gaining quite a ‘rep’ among the pygmies as a heavyweight prize-fighter. ” —29— Q U I N I A IT L T A.—“Speaking of Bert just puts me in mind of George Arnold. Where is he?” E.—“Oh, he’s a minister now. lie has quite a flock in Grenasgras-ville, Oregon. George is the same religious soul as he was as a boy. Art Mackey told me about him. Art is a confirmed bachelor, although he has plenty of jingle. I understand that he is nursing a shattered romance. It seems he wanted to marry that little girl In used to fuss over during the noon hour, but she wouldn’t have him.” A.—“Have you ever heard of ‘Quick’ Keil?” E.—“You bet I have. He is managing the ‘Green Sox’ nine. Last year his team walked away with the pennant in the Bushville County Tri-C'ity League. I saw him last summer when lie was up in Philadelphia scouting for some recruits. I saw Ralph Vammen there, too. He had charge of the pretty girl contest at the ‘Centennial.’ Ralph makes it a business now of managing such things as fairs and expositions. He was always strong for that class of stuff, you remember.” A.—“Sav, Ek, what became of -—” Bang! Thump! Thwack! E.—“Get off the line! What do you think this is. a public lecture?” A.—“As I was saying, what became of Lilian Milette? She used to help out on the ‘O. B.’ and ‘Quinault’ you know.” E.—“Lilian stuck to the newspaper business. At present she is editor of the ‘Feminine Fight,’ a paper devoted to the theme of ‘vir 'st nihil. They say she has proved her theory by properly training her hubby up to standard specifications. I tell you Art. this country has become ‘war’ for the married man. That’s why I still am a bachelor.” A.—“So it would seem. Well to continue, what became of Julius Berggren?” E.—He was killed in South America about two years ago. He was a movie taker and was trying to hang up in a tree by bis toes and take some snaps. He lost his footing and fell into the mouth of an alligator. Hard luck, I proclaim. Ilinman Harris was telling me about it. He was with him. Ilinman left about a year ago to take pictures with a North Pole expedition. They haven’t come back yet.” A.—“How about Margueritte Whelan, Margueritte Loomis, Mildred Gerhardt and Marie Robinson?” E.—“Oh, they’re all married off and living around near Aberdeen. I haven’t seen them since I was down that wav in ’33.” A.—“And Mildred Foelkner?” E.—“She is a policewoman in Tacoma. I have good reason to remember her. She pulled me about four years ago when T was preaching on a street corner without a license. That was in the days before I began my lecture tours. I spent my time then preaching Hinduism and the transmigration of souls.” • A.—“And how about Josie Moore?” E.—“Oh. she’s married to -—” Bang! A.—“Hang it! Central sure has her nerve.” —ARTHUR WILLIAMS, ’17. —30— QUINIAULT class mm We, the class of 11)17 of the Aberdeen High School, being of sound mind and memory, and on the point of departing from those halls forever do declare this to be our last will and testament. To the Freshmen of the year now coming to a close we bequeath the following Rules for Conduct, the carefully condensed result of four years of observation and experience: First. Be kind to your teachers for it is your duty to hold a good example before them and. moreover, we have found this to be the most efficient method for obtaining satisfactory report cards. Second. Be kind to your books. Do not treat them harshly. Indeed we recommend that they be used as little as possible for the less wear they receive the greater the possibility of your regaining possession of vour library fee. Third. Be kind to your classmates for you might want to be president when you are a Senior. Should you obey all these injunctions you cannot fail to become men and women, successful in society, finance and politics. To the Sophomores. Alas, we hesitate. For a class so bountifully provided with wit, grace, wisdom and all the other qualities in the category of success we can think of no suitable bequest. But wait— one thing we have possessed which is of real value and which owing to lack of time we must leave behind us. Therefore, to the Sophomore class we will leave all the deposit of chewing gum which in four long years we have accumulated with much labor and expense. We regret to say that upon investigation we find that “Charley.” the janitor, has filched a large part of this treasure but there is still much remaining, of many assorted kinds, and when in the coming year you desire an exciting, soul tuning and jaw developing exercise we commend you to its use and wish you joy thereof. To the juniors we bequeath: First, our seats in the auditorium and with them the hearty wish that their occupants during the coming year may acquit themselves with a dignity worthy of their exalted position. Second, we leave to them Room Fourteen—and may the lofty ideals and tin brilliant ideas which we have so successfully shown forth within its walls, continue to rule— and taking possession of its new inmates, gain them a position as exalted as our own. To certain needy individuals in the school we make the following bequest: —31— QUINIAULT To Ed. Green, one pair of long trousers donated by Editor “Art” who, although he parts with them regretfully has been induced to do so by the urgency of the need. lo Leslie Morgan, Art Mackey bequeaths his most valuable possession, a bottle of hair glue, warranted to break the back of the stiffest pompadour. To Roger Blackburn, one bright idea in chemistry, donated out of pity for the heir’s low grades, by “Bill” Hugo, who would give more were it not for the fact that this is his only one with any bearing on the subject. To the Faculty we will give all good things in full return measure, as they have meted out good grades to us. Who could ask more? To the school as a whole, our classmates, teachers and all concerned, we bequeath our untarnished reputation for high scholarship, nobility of character, general efficiency and modesty, and our best wishes for a future bright with all happiness and success. In testimony whereof we set our seal. CLASS OF SEVENTEEN. Witness: Marion Crarv. SCHOOL-MATES What friends like those, our school-mates? True, other friendships we will form. But the heart grows cold as one grows old And the friendships that here we form Seem firmer, truer and more warm Than those that come as the years unfold. What joys like those of school-mates? At study, work or play There’s a ready smile and a cheery “hello” That passes the lips from the heart below Without selfish thought of personal pay. School-mates, a word that should Be written in on the whitest leaves Of our Book of Life, in the purest gold. Friendship, love, nay. ’tis more than these . A greater something that will never be told And only by school-mates be understood. -32— —KRAZY KAT, ’17.

E. Smith, for the purpose of commencing its High School career. From the first, the class was favored with reasonable success, to which it has steadily added. The officers selected for the first year were: Ed Edwards, president; Carl Anderson, vice president, and Roger Blackburn, secretary-treasurer. Class colors were fearlessly chosen to be green and white, and the white rosebud was designated class flower. The class was represented in athletics during its first year by “Bill” Thompson, Levy Johnson. Roy Thompson, Carl Anderson. Elmer Elliott and Estell Ilerren, all of whom proved their merit to the class and to the school. The class came back in full strength for the Sophomore year. Officers were: Estell Ilerren, president; Roy Peterson, vice president; George Vaughn, secretary, and Gordon Gibson, treasurer. A success was made of the Freshman Reception which was the main class social activity for the year, and then all efforts were put to athletics. Those of our membership wTho won athletic distinction during the Sophomore year were: Levi Johnson, Carl Anderson, Elmer Elliott, Estell Ilerren, Ralph Harris and Ed Edwards. In debate the class was represented by Roger Blackburn, Ellen Marsh and Lorena Wyndearo. We now come to a year which has been very eventful both to the nation and the class. The Class of Nineteen-Eighteen started out with a rush, electing for officers: Carl Anderson, president; Ralph Harris, vice president; Hannah Schwartz, secretary, and Joe Fox, treasurer. Soon afterward, a constitution was adopted, and plans for the Junior Prom commenced. This year our class furnished four men for football: Carl Anderson, Ralph Harris, Elmer Elliott and Estell Ilerren. The Junior Prom was held on January nineteenth, in the Eagles’ hall and was a great success, due to the earnest efforts of the various committees, and of the whole class. In basketball our team won the interclass championship, being undefeated; the players were, Carl Anderson, captain; Roy Peterson, Ralph Harris, Wallace McClymont, Estell Ilerren and Ed Edwards. A debating team, composed of two Juniors, Charles Miller and Roger Blackburn, and one Senior, Ed Remmelmeyer, won the interclass championship in that line. Meanwhile, the nation was becoming involved in the world’s great conflict, and when war was declared, no shirkers were found in the Class of ’Eighteen, as six of our boys went with the Naval Militia and Company “G”. These were: Carl Anderson, Harold Anderson, Weir Allen, Ralph Harris, Wallace McClymont and Fred Pearson. The other members of the class have willingly and eagerly shouldered the extra burden of keeping the class at the front, and we are sure that “Nineteen-Eighteen” will always be remembered as a successful class by those who look back in later years. -ROGER E.

They proved themselves to be nothing below the standard and for the first few weeks entertained their superiors by numerous errors and maneuvers peculiar to Freshmen. Although somewhat “green” as to matters of procedure. a class meeting was held, at which Russell Austin was elected president; Lily Nordgren, vice president; Helen Chamberlain, secretary, and Edward Green, treasurer.. They were introduced into the social whirl of A. II. S. by the Sophomores at a dance given in the new Gym. In athletics the Freshmen proved themselves worthy ot the Purple and Gold, their chosen colors, being well represented in football, track and basketball. The class was reenforced and made even stronger by those entering in the mid-year. The first thing of note in the Sophomore year was the class meeting held for the election of officers. Those elected were: President, Gordon Tebbs; vice president, Marion Vernon; secretary, Cecelia Carlson; treasurer, Russel Austin. The annual reception given to the entering class was a decided success and in school athletics and activities the Sophomores have still maintained their supremacy. “Jinges” Ingebright-sen, affectionately known as the “baby elephant,” and “Fat” Mitchell, of Mellon's Food fame, have both occupied places of honor on the school eleven and are proudly claimed by the class. Two Sophomores are members of the “Ukie” organization, and several talented musicians of the class at times contributed to the enjoyment of the student body. It is hoped that the two remaining years in A. II. S. will be as successful for the class as those preceding. HELEN CHAMBERLAIN, ’17.

The ambitions of our entire Grammar School life were realized and we were in High School, the largest entering class that has ever entered the A. II. S. On census being taken we found that we had about 120 members enrolled as Freshmen. Many of us were shaking as we entered the dear old brick building, for we had heard dire threats of what happened to Freshmen in High School, but our experience was far different from our expectations. We were treated very kindly by both faculty and upper classmen, and we wish to extend our heartfelt thanks for this same treatment. A few weeks after the opening day we had our first class meeting. This meeting was for the election of officers. The returns from this election showed the following candidates elected to their respective offices: President.............................. Peter Murchison Vice President ............................. Phil Sherk . Secretary...........................................Sue Hunt Treasurer ................................ Orland Duell At a later meeting we chose for our class colors, Red and White, being very conservative in our choice, and chose for our class flower the red rose bud. 1 lungs ran very smoothly for a few months, then the Seniors thought that too many of us were wearing white collars. The usual edict was passed and as a consequence the following day, as someone said, “white collars in the Freshman Class are as scarce as hen’s teeth.” Our class has been represented in the athletic line. On the call for football men Phil Sherk. Leonard Carlson, Clarence Callison and Chester Armburst responded. Phil Sherk and Leonard Carlson made their “A 's this year, while Clarence Callison and Chester Armburst were members of the second team. We were also well represented in basketball, P. Sherk, L. Carlson and Ed. Sehustra being members of the A. II. S. team. Our class team, however, did not make the showing it should have. We have good material, however, and expect to do better in the future. On the call for track men we expect to be well represented, especially in the jumping department. Ed. Sehustra and Fred Tebb being famous for their aerial activity. As a finis, to our history, will say that as a whole we have had a very successful year. We are proud of having the largest entering class on record and sincerely hope that all members will persevere and stick to the Blue and Gold, until three years from now when we shall go out of this school into Life’s School, always treasuring best memories of our Freshman year in the dear old A.

Tin first issue was somewhat delayed owing to the fact that Dorothy Borden, who was elected editor, failed to return to school. After tin appointment of Arthur Williams by the Board of Control, the staff was organized and the paper issued at regular three-week intervals until eight issues had been printed. The increase in High School activities has had the effect of creating so much news that literary efforts were practically crowded out and, sad as it may seem, often the jokes found no room in the paper to rest their weary feet. There could he more co-operation from the students in this work but it seems to be a popular fallacy that the staff should be capable of doing it all. There has. however, been quite a little material handed in by those not on the staff. One notable feature of this year’s Ocean Breeze was that it was self-supporting, a condition hitherto practically unknown. The credit for this is due to tin efforts of the Advertising Manager. The paper has now completed its tenth year of service for the Student Body, and it compares favorably, in fact is better than the majority of papers from schools of this size. Don Lyons Mary Donovan Eric Strommer STUDENT BODY OFFICERS The Student Body, during this past year, lias not been quite as strong, perhaps as was the organization the year previous. Owing to the illness of our President, Don Lyons, the organization was without a head the greater part of the year. The Student Body tickets were advanced to one dollar and fifty cents, but a large1 number of the students purchased them regardless of the price advance. The student affairs have run smoothly, and the finances were ably handled by Eric Strommer, Student Body Treasurer. The members of this year’s board of control were: Wilhelm Keil, Senior; Carl Anderson. Junior; and Ed Green. Sophomore; Mr. Hawley, Mr. Holmquist and Mr. Miller. Don Lyons presided over all meetings as chairman and Mary Donovan, secretary of the Student Body, acted as secretary. Although Dorothy Borden was elected Ocean Breeze editor last May, her failure to return to school gave the appointment to Arthur Williams by an act of the Board of Control. Since this book goes to the press somewhat earlier than usual, it is impossible to give results of election for the coming year. QUINIAULT War cttottte£ The war this year gives us ample opportunity for a new department in this annual. The first to leave were the boys with Co.

Lieut. Springer, a former officer in Co. G. took charge of the drills. The boys have been divided according to size into two companies of about fifty each. These companies drill on alternate days. On Monday nights there is a drill for any who wish to come from either company. A great deal has been accomplished in a short time in this line. RED CROSS CIRCLE Not to be outdone, the girls of the school have organized a Red Cross Circle and are cooperating with other circles of the city. Jeanette Hogan was elected chairman of the organization. Gertrude Goehrend is inspector and Marion Crary has charge of membership. —50— “Off with your hat as the flay goes by!

If this copy has flaws, which it doubtless has, the staff begs the honest reader to kindly overlook such small errors and take it at its face value, a monument to the Aberdeen High School, gratefully erected by the class of SEVENTEEN. The boys of the school who have been called away on duty for our country carry with them the sincerest wishes of all the student-body for good health and fortune, wherever they may be. —51— QUINIAULT The Senior Class extends their thanks to Miss Ilobi for her work in coaching’ this year’s Senior Play. The class also wishes to thank “Pete” Murchison for his willing services as play manager when the elected manager, Henrv Callison left for the front. WHY THIS BOOK? This book is a reflection of school life. It is a compilation of scenes and activities dear to the hearts of the students; it is a review of countless incidents and pleasant associations, which are an inseparable part of the process of learning. It is not perfect ; it would not be fair to make it so. 1 hat would work a hardship upon the class which is next to follow. lo the editor this volume is an achievement—a reward for toil and planning; to the lower classmen it s a model for annuals which are to come; to the artist it is a thing of beauty—its decorations and colors are pleasing to the eye; to the printer it is an arrangement of cold, inanimate type and metallic plates, which make its pages. But these are least among its virtues. To the class of ’17 this book, in years to come, will be a stimulant to memory. When the greater duties ol liie have effaced tin vividness of academic days, it will furnish a refreshing hour to turn these pages through and through, and thus to catch a glimpse ot schoolmates, who have scattered far and wide— some, perhaps, too have attained to fame and wealth. Therein lies its greatest purpose. Senior, keep this book ! Preserve it; cherish it ! Its value will accumulate at a high rate of compound interest. As time goes by, you will not measure its excellence by the mere one hundred cents von paid for it. but with an ever expanding esteem, you will think of it as a thing of inestimable worth. T. W. BIBB. I I he time has arrived when we may glance back over our fleeting career in High School. For four years we have played and worked together and now we must separate, perhaps never to be again assembled together. Is it any wonder that as a class we approach the dawn of a new to-morrow with many longing backward glances, in spite of the rosy future ahead. e hope that in the last four years we have learned the blessings ot friendship, tin worth of knowledge and the power of courage. During this four years, so quickly fled as we try to look back, our teachers have striven, by word and example, to plant in our hearts the seeds of successful manhood and womanhood. And oh. you of Seventeen, if you have failed, where lies the blame except on yourself? But we will entertain no such thoughts for this is a period of happiness. The first mile-stone on tin road of life has been reached and at —52— q U I N I A IJ L T last we have rounded the curve. Ahead of us lies,—what? It is our privilege, our duty and our joy to press onward and explore what life holds out to us. We hope and trust that, as we wander, our paths may often cross those of our fellow class-mates so that we may to-gether glance hack at our happy days in the dear old A. II. S. Remember, oh class of Seventeen, to play square is the thing that pays. “It. is a false belief that life necessarily wears itself out as the years go by. Life means living, and so long as we live with our eyes open toward the future, with our ears attuned to catch the melody of the present day, with our hands eager for the new task, with our feet impatient for the unexplored path before us, we shall not grow old but we shall remain young in heart and mind and spirit which after all are our real selves.” The school year which is just closing has been in some respects a banner year in the history of the Aberdeen High School. The total enrollment—.‘ISO—shows an increase of 69 over that of the pervious year, and the graduating class—in number—is the largest in the history of the school. 1 beljeve, too. that from tin standpoint of scholarship the past year lias been one of the best in the history of the school. The percentage of failures is less than in any previous year. The attendance record—• though not what is should be. by any means—shows that a large percentage of students have been perfect in attendance. We are beginning to realize that there is a close connection between attendance and scholarship, and that the student who is habitually “making up” work is at a serious disadvantage. When President Wilson issued the call to the colors twenty-five of our High School boys responded. Ten of them were Seniors. We are proud of the record. These boys are doing their duty, and they are setting an example for the rest of us to do our duty—whether at home or on the firing line—in the time of our country’s need. The withdrawal of these twenty-five boys left a serious gap in the ranks of our school—especially in the ranks of the Senior class. For a time it looked as if the Senior play would have to be dropped, and without the proceeds from the play the publication of this Annual would have been impossible. But the play was given—a splendid performance it was, too—and this issue of the Quiniault will, 1 believe, compare favorably with any previous number. As one who has been connected with our school for a period of six years. I look back with much satisfaction upon the activities of the past school year. The association with the members of the Senior class has been (“specially pleasant. I know that 1 speak for all the members of the faculty when I say to the Seniors: We are glad to have had you with us; wherever vou go. our good wishes follow you! —H. E. HOLMQUIST. —53 Q U I N I A 11 h T When the Joke Turned The Land of Lost Souls Trip To Mars Lingua Latina A Sophomore’s Dream Q U I N I A U L T When the Joke Turned “Oh. fudge!” said Martie Schultz to herself as she was walking home from the library one afternoon. “I wish Bob wouldn’t get so serious. I have gone with him for so long that the other boys never call on me any more. They act as though I were married to him. 1 like him but he is getting too serious.” Martie was a nice-looking girl, very small, with dark curly hair and sparkling, mischievous brown eyes. She was full of fun and did not like to “get serious” as she called it. She seemed to think that ii she went with Bob. or even married him, that she could never have other gentlemen friends. Bob did not want her to feel that way, in tact he never thought anything about her having other friends, although he did want her to go with him, sometimes. She had been mischievous all her life, and brimming over with jokes and fun. Every member of her family and all her friends had had at one time or other jokes played on them, which sometimes proved rather embarrassing and quite serious. But she herself always took a joke good-naturedly, and no one could help liking her. When she had been in High School, she was so friendly and full of fun that all the students liked her. As she was walking along the street this afternoon, so deeply was she thinking that she heard or saw no one. “Say Mart.” came a voice close behind her, “Are you deaf?” and her friend Bob stepped to her side and began talking. “I have called to you for the last five minutes. I thought maybe you were peeved. Nothing wrong. I hope.” Oh. no. nothing wrong,” said Martie curtly. “Whew,” whistled Bob. “Guess I’ll beat it. I just thought I would ask you if you wanted to go to the show tonight. Mary l’ickford, at the Burke tonight.” Martie liked to go to the show, especially to see Mary Bickford. “Yes, I will go,” she said. After a pleasant evening at the show, and at the La Velle enjoying ice cream and sodas, they started home. Bob seemed unusually serious and thoughtful, consequently Martie was full of fun, and at her worst behavior. “Let’s sit here a few minutes. Mart.” They were coming through a small grove of trees near the Schultz home, and as he spoke he slipped his arm around Martie. “Never mind, Bob, I am perfectly able to assist myself.” Her words stung him, and he spoke bitterly. “Mart, why do you treat me as you do? You know I mean well toward you,” he continued. “Ever since we were children I have thought so much of you. Can’t you care for me, just a little?” —55— Q U I N I A II L T “Oh. this is so-o-o sudden,” said Martie, mischievously, meant to make fun. but when she saw tin hurt look in his was heartily ashamed of her conduct. “It's late, let’s go home, “We’ve been to the movies and you are sentimental. You differently tomorrow.” “No, Martie, I won’t. I love you, and have loved you She had eyes, she ” she said, will think ever since I finished school three years ago, but you were such a child then that I hated to tell you. But now, I mean it.” “I am sorry, Boh, give me time to think.” At the door, before he had scarcely had time to say good-night, she had shut the door and darted upstairs. At the top of the stairs she collide;! with someone. ou ! Marie, I thought 1 had met myself. When did you come?” Marie was indeed a picture of her cousin. Martie. The sparkling brown eyes, and curly brown hair, features, all were the same except a tiny mole on her left cheek. It was nearing the gray dawn of the morning before the two girls stopped their chattering. Marie was almost asleep when she was aroused by a generous kick from her cousin. “Say, Marie, how would you like to be me for a few weeks?” You? Oh, I would love it, but that is impossible.” “Xo. it isn’t, or rather I mean, you can be for three weeks. I will explain tomorrow, but you will take my place for three weeks, won’t you?” Marie promised and they were both soon asleep. Early the next morning they began their planning. “Well, Martie,’ said the real Martie. “from now on von are I, and I, you.” After Marie’s hair had been trimmed off a little on the sides, and hung down her back in three curls and she was dressed in her cousin’s clothes, she looked like the real Martie. Martie dressed as her cousin would, and by putting a little drop of iodine on Martie’s cheek, and a little paint and powder Marie s, tin mole was soon remedied. After rehearsing the walks, laughs and favorite sayings and expressions, they went gaily down to breakfast. It was quite easy for Marie, but with Martie, her position was rather difficult. There were questions concerning her parents, her journey, her work at school, and to Martie it seemed as if they asked a million questions she did not know how to answer. However, the day passed quickly and was full of fun for both of the girls. Toward evening Martie took her cousin into the parlor and said: “You will have company this evening.” Who?” asked Marie. “Heavens! Mart, what will T do or say?” “Just act as if you were me, and say what you please. I don’t care.” said Martie. “I like Bob but he is getting too serious, and I want to have more fun. That is why I wanted you to take my place, and I will be your cousin. I will go with you and Bob to the dances, shows, etc., —56— QUINIAULT and you must always introduce me as your cousin, Marie Schultz. “That will be ’oodles of fun, wont it?’’ “There is Bob, at the door now, I think. Go to the door, but don’t forget to introduce me as your cousin.” “Hello, Mart,” said Bob. “I thought I would see if you wanted to go to the concert.” Robert Lansing is going, he got tickets for us this afternoon. Alice is going, too, of course. They are going to be married in June. Oh, you have company, I see.” “Yes. this is my cousin, Marie Schultz, Mr. Burton. The would-be Marie, who had been standing by the window, turned and came towards Bob. “Why, I am pleased to meet you, B—, Mr. Burton. Martie often speaks of Bob.” But Bob stood speechless, staring from one girl to the other, then finally said: “Well, I’ll be hanged. If you two aren’t alike, no twins ever were.” Then after a few minutes he said. “What shall we do about the concert tickets?” “I’ll stay at home and you take my cousin, said Marie looking at Martie. “No you won’t,” said Martie. “I’ll stay at home and talk to uncle and auntie.” When the two were gone, Martie threw herself down on the lounge saying, “And I wanted to go so badly, but now Bob has taken Marie instead of me.” In the days that followed things didn’t seem to work out as Martie had planned. 1) seemed as though the “Cousin” was always the one too many. So, of course, she had to stay at home. One afternoon Bob and some friends stopped in front of Martie s home. Both girls hurried outside and were greeted by Bob. with a cheerful: “Hello, girls, won’t you go for a spin?” Again Martie was the one too many. She spoke quickly: “No thank you, I don’t care to go. I will read while you are gone.” As she stood on the porch to see them off she felt very lonesome and blue. It seemed as though Bob was always coming after Maiie. “I don’t care,” she tried to assure herself; then through the chug of the car came Bob’s voice: “Better come along, Miss Schultz.” “No, thank you, Mr. Burton.” As he turned to assist Marie into the car, he put his arm around her and gave her an affectionate squeeze. Martie had seen. “Oh. Bob—” she said half to herself, half aloud, and banged the door and rushed up to her room. —57— Q U I N I A U L T A few hours later when Marie returned she went immediately to her cousin’s room. She was met at the door by a red-eyed, tear-swollen faced, little girl. “Oh. Mart! I am sorry,” said Marie, “don’t you want to change places again? I am getting tired of leaving you at home all the time.” “No, I don’t want to change back,” said Martie shortly. “It has only been one week, but I will wait until those other two weeks are up, if I die of lonesomeness.” “Bob wants us to come over this evening, a number of young people are going to he there and make candy. You will go. won’t you?” “I don’t believe I will, Marie, I have a headache; but you go and enjoy yourself.” I he next two weeks seemed centuries to Martie. There were parties, dances, concerts, picnics and motoring, but it seemed as if there were partners without her, and she was always the one too many. Bob always insisted on Marie being his partner. It was Marie this, and Marie that until Martie became terribly jealous. “Bob does treat me so coldly,” she thought, “I wish he wouldn’t.” One evening Boh came over and the three were sitting in the parlor. All evening Boh seemed to be rather thoughtful and glanced at Martie so often that she felt as if he wanted her to leave. She thought she could stand it no longer, so she left them and went to her room. How foolish I am, she thought, “I will carry out my plans, as I planned.” She resolved to go back for the rest of the evening. She went slowly down the stairs, which seemed to creak in tune with her feelings, but as she stepped between tin curtains which separated the living room from the parlor, she stopped suddenly and flushed very red; then she turned quickly and left. Bob and Marie were sitting on the sofa, and he had evidently kissed her, just as Martie stepped between the curtains. Though she turned quickly, Bob had heard a sob from her. In a moment he was by her side. Don t cry, Mart,” said Bob tenderly, putting his arms around her, I knew you, besides I was in the drawing room and heard you and Marie planning. I played a part too, Martie, I wanted to see if you cared for me. Do you?” Sobs were the only answer for a few seconds; then with her eyes shining through her tears, she looked up at him. “Bob, I care,” was all she could say, but that was enough. When they returned to the parlor a few minutes afterward, Marie was smiling and seemed to know all. “The joke turned, didn’t it, Mart, old dear,” she said, “but never mind; the three weeks are up tonight, and the joke is over.” —58— —ELVA BADGLEY, ’17. Q U T N I A U L T The Land of Lost Souls T WAS Saturday morning, the 10th of August, 2015 A. D. Lewis Crawson awoke with a start. A dull sense of oppression clung to him, the aftermath of a night of restless and depressing dreams. lie was held by an unseen force and was unable to rise. lie lay back in bed. closed his eyes, and began for the thousandth time that morning, to ask himself this question, “Will my fate he that of Jack Bodnar?” He then reflected on Bodnar’s attempt to set a new altitude record. Back in college. Jack and he had been chums and had together participated in the usual number of college pranks. Two weeks before, he had heard that Jack was in Paris and would make an attempt for a new record. Lewis had heard nothing more, being engrossed in his own plans for a similar flight, until he had chanced the night before, to note the following clipping in a local news sheet: “Paris. France, August 9.—Yesterday, the machine of Jack Bodnar, American aviator, who recently attempted to set a new record, was found near a small village, three kilometers south of Havre. i o trace of Bodnar s body has been found. In some mysterious manner, the machine had been saturated with oil ami on the lower lever arm were scratched these words: ‘This is a region of lost souls.’ The instruments registered an altitude of 40.160 meters. As Lewis lay back, he closed his eyes tightly and again and again this paragraph flashed before his mind. He pondered over the words, “This is a region of lost souls.” What had Jack meant by those words; under what circumstances had they been written, and, above all, why should his machine be saturated with oil? Would his fate be the same? He dared not ask himself that question. For a moment he thought of giving up his flight but he as quickly thrust the idea aside. For months his flight had been heralded abroad and every hour of these last few days, each air-line had poured its quota of spectators from all points of the globe. To refuse to fly now would be impossible. After a time In arose, threw on his dressing gown, and went to the window. A blanket of fog hid the city from sight and he reflected bitterly that it resembled his view into the future. He lit a cigarette and began to pace his room. He casually glanced into the mirror, then started back with a frightened cry. es. that body was his, but his face was strangely obliterated by a gray, mist-like veil. Even as he looked, this slowly disappeared. 11 is cigarette seemed to choke him; he flung it aside, dressed hurriedly, left the house, and disappeared into the fog. ITow strange it was outside; all gray, cold, and invisible. lie could —59— 0 U I N I A U L T hear the sounds of the city traffic but could see nothing. lie might as clearly have been in London, as San Francisco, for all that was visible. Yet, in this teeming city of millions, there were hundreds of thousands whose whole thought centered on his coming flight. At Market and Kearny he paused, then slowly mounted to the station of the Transcontinental Air-Line. As he stood in the lighted entrance of the station, many stopped to stare at him. He was a man above medium height, square shouldered and square jawed. Ilis face was one of set determination and purpose, and over all, was the hold stamp ot fearlessness. The pallor of his complexion, and the nervous twitching of Ids hands, as he repeatedly lit cigarette after cigarette, only to throw them aside after a moment, made a bold defiance to the fearlessness of his face. A ship from Paris arrived, having made the trip in twenty-nine hours. While crossing the Atlantic, it was delayed for three hours by fog. Among the two hundred passengers, was a young fellow who hailed Lewis affectionately. Hello. Frank, said Lewis, in a scarcely audible voice. Hello yourself,’ replied the boy. “Cheer up, you look as glum as a railroad magnate when the air-lines were first started.” Hut Crawson would not allow his anxious thoughts to be put aside. “Tell me about it.” he begged. About it? Oh ves—well, there is nothing to tell.” “Nothing to tell?” exclaimed the other. “Jack went up and didn’t come down; that’s all.” replied the boy in an awed tone. “To tell the truth, Crawson, the whole thing looks mighty queer, to say the least. I can’t sense it at all.” “And no more clues have been found?” Nothing, answered Frank. “Jack evidently met with an adventure that will always he a mystery to this world. Hut say, old man, cheer up and come down to dinner with me, you look like the ragged side of a scare-crow.” At dinner, hrank kept up a continual stream of conversation that lie intended to use in diverting his brother’s mind. Frank was Crawson’s “kid” brother, a happv-hearted college boy. whose unusual good nature refused to he kept down by worry about the flight. After an hour of this one-sided conversation, he was forced to exclaim: Say. Lewis .this is about as interesting as a visit with the mummy of the late King- Pharaoh.” Lewis answered him with a wan smile. After dinner they went out to the Fair grounds together. The sky had cleared and a brilliant sun bore down on the city. Over-head, the blue was flecked with fleecy clouds and black against this back-ground, were countless numbers ol air-crafts of all sizes, shape's and descriptions. The grounds of the “Centennial Panama Exposition” we're in the same place as those of the Fair of 1915. The buildings, of a much more —60— Q U I N I A U L T fantastic and gorgeous design, covered about two thousand acres, extending along the shore of the bay up into the Presidio. On the day of Crawson’s flight, the weary ticket sellers had by two o’clock, checked off upwards of a million tickets. Crawson was noted the world over for his fearless daring, his likeable disposition, and pleasing personality. In every nation, accounts of his achievements in aviation were on every tongue. It was two-thirty when at a cry of “Let ’er go.” Crawson arose into the air. lie flew twice around the grounds and inspected tin panorama beneath him. Along the shore and up the slope, spread a fairyland which was almost unbelieveable, even in that age of wonder. At his left, and rising some hundred feet above him, stood a gigantic copy of the wonder of a century before, “The Tower of Jewels.” Out over the Golden Gate, the blue water shimmered in the sunlight. At the edge, the brown cliffs rose in beauteous grandeur. Alcazar gleamed white in the brilliant sunshine. Around its walls were spread the submarine flotilla and above them hovered Cncle Sam’s huge air fleet. Far to bis right he could see the road bed of the old railway, now overgrown and the rails crumbling with rust. Above and below him, darted air-craft whose owners cried shouts of encouragement to him as he passed. From below came the indistinct sound of cheers as be tilted his machine upward and began his flight, lie fastened his gaze on the earth until it slowly became smaller and smaller and finally was lost to sight. 11 is nervousness, which had been forgotten in the beauty of the scenery, was returning in even greater force. lie strapped himself securely to the machine and thought grimly, as he did so, that they would at least find bis body. By this time, the air was growing cooler and he fastened his electrically heated coat more closely about him. lie hitched his respiratory apparatus over his head, increased tin speed of his machine and elevated its planes to a greater degree. Glancing at bis wrist-watch, he found that he had been in the air ten minutes; a glance at the dial of his altitude recorder showed a height of one hundred thousand feet. lie remembered. with a start, that Jack had reached but forty thousand meters, practically one hundred and twenty thousand feet. lie glanced again at the dial and noted that it marked one hundred and fifteen thousand feet; and he was still climbing. He laughed nervously, and the loud reverberation in bis helmet made a cold shiver pass over bis body. Was this land of lost souls a fact, a joke, or a hideous nightmare? He glanced at the dial and saw, with relief, that it marked one hundred and forty thousand feet. Suddenly be noticed that the sun, which bad been shining brilliantly, was being slowly obscured by a black cloud. Immediatelv lie slowed down and approached the cloud. As he entered the vapor-like substance, it appeared to be no more than a heavy mist, but as he slowly rose, it grew thicker and blacker, assuming vague and fantastic forms, lie noted, with a fear that chilled —61— Q U I X I A U L T liim to the bones, that a thin, oily film was appearing upon his machine, lie tried to pull the lever for a downward glide, but fear held him motionless. The fantastic shapes assumed a more definite form. Horrible faces leered and grinned at him. ghost-like figures glided noiselessly past and disappeared in the murk. He heard a demoniacal laugh and strove to place the sound. Then he suddenly realized that lu could hear no voice but his own. He shivered in apprehension of what was to come. The figures, half human and yet horribly otherwise, seemed to Crawson’s terror-stricken eyes, the reincarnation of the misery, crime, and woe of all the world. They reached out long, snaky arms towards him as if to snatch him away, but always, they disappeared as lie cried out in terror. Good God ! lie could not stand this. He closed his eyes resolutely, but the oily coldness of their forms, as they brushed his cheeks and hands drove his imagination wild, until lie was finally forced to again open his eyes. . .. .Once more he tried to lower his machine but in spite of the fact that he elevated the planes downward, the machine climbed slowly and steadily upward. As he climbed up. the darkness settled closer and closer, and soon Crawson noted thankfully, that the horrible faces were shut off from his view. He glanced at the dial and noted that it registered one hundred and ninety thousand feet. Weird lights flitted by in the darkness and strange noises came to his ears as he rose up and ever upwards. He found his knife and reaching over, grasped the lever handle. He wrote with pains-taking care, for the murk was such that the electric lights cast their blaze out, two or three inches. By scratching slowly and carefully into the varnish, he penned his message to the world. 11 is machine lurched violently and a swishing sound was plainly audible to his ears. The dynamo had stopped and an icy coldness was beginning to penetrate his body. Suddenly his air supply was shut off, lie gasped, choked and lurched forward. A desire to see the altitude, forced him to feebly light a match, and bend over the dial. The air supply in his helmet was rapidly giving out •and lie breathed with extreme difficulty. The figures on the dial stood out black and grim, yet Lewis allowed a feeling of satisfaction to come over him; he had set a new record at one hundred and ninety-nine thousand feet. Suddenly lights flashed before his eyes, flames shot out into the air in all directions, giving a lightning-like flash of demon-like features, distorted and twisted into leers and grins. Then darkness settled down over the mind of Lewis Crawson. It was two days before they found any trace of Crawson. A party of boys, out on a hike, found his oil-soaked machine on a slope of Mount Tamalpais. Scratched upon the lever handle, in an almost illegible scrawl, were these words: “Bodnar was right.” —ARTHUR WILLIAMS, ’17. —62— QUINIAULT A Trip to Mars Dear Dora :— Since writing to you last I have had many wonderful experiences. When on earth last I was at Tokio, Japan. I started from there May sixteenth. 19—. We were on the boat starting to Alaska when a tidal wave struck us and I was taken to Mars. I arrived there and was very much surprised at what I found. The people there are made of chocolate cake and they live in houses made of candy. It was very wonderful. Everything is exactly opposite to what it is on earth. The people in Mars dig apples out of the ground large, nice rod ones, too. I assure you. They pick potatoes off the trees; and everything that grows on top of the ground on earth grows under the earth on Mars. Mars is not so Dig when you are on it. But you have a hard time staying on, as there is no gravitation. You jump up and instead of coming down you go on up. I had a terrible experience while T was there. I jumped off a rock and instead of going down 1 went up. ’t ou can imagine my consternation. But luckily for me there was a tree which I grabbed hold of. I climbed down and was going to step down on the ground when I stepped onto a chocolate cake boy. Of course In was all mashed. I felt dreadful. His parents wept tears of white icing. Another experience I had while I was here was in getting into the houses. The people are so tiny that I can’t get into the houses; so T stay out at nights under the beautiful trees. But one night it snowed; and the funny thing about it there is that when it snows it snows the nicest, biggest flakes of popcorn. Well as T said T was out walking, and eating a great deal of popcorn, when what do you think I found ! A little boy up to his neck in popcorn. Of course I pulled him out, but he vas nearly suffocated. I wanted to bring him home but his parents wouldn t think of it Well 1 think I will have to stop as it is nearly time for the car that comes from the earth to Mars once every century, ’k our chum.

This star was Lingua Latina. Now Lingua Latina grew rapidly and finally became a great sun. sending off rays which came to be known as Lingua Ilispana. Lingua Francia, Lingua Itala and even Lingua Anglica. She had a peculiar penetrating power. All who were exposed to her beneficent rays were made to glow brightly, illumining the world multos annos. They became exceedingly wise and were especially skilled in the knowledge of medicine and drugs. Many were the inventions which were made, the names for which were coined from Lingua Latina. Among them are to be found the velocepede automobile, autopede, aeroplane, incubator, and thermometer and others commonly used by man. She also furnished the key to science, mathematics and literature and Lingua Latina was the only dictionary needed. The people living under the rays of that sun became strong-minded, efficient, business men. the sort of men the people were looking for. They were not seeking a progress without. tears. Lingua Latina proved also a very effective cure for many ailments. It gave encouraging results in the treatment of such maladies as shiftalysis, lazipox. slackitis, negleetfulosis and blufferia. It is predicted that when tin people find a little more of this element to work with, discoveries will bo made which will startle the whole civilized world. There was one remote land, however, where Lingua Latina was not appreciated but was so neglected that she ceased to shed her lifegiving rays upon the people, for not culture but eulturine satisfied their feeble aspirations. In a short' time they were in the densest darkness with no Lux Latina to guide them. Quacks advertised many fake cures which they recommended as being more easily applied than Lingua Latina and, mirabile dictu, just as good. Though some successful experiments were made but people were at a loss as to what they should name them and finally inventions ceased entirely. The people gradually forgot the blessings of Lingua Latina and thought she was no more. The loss of that great light caused a blind spot in the education of the people which made it impossible for them to understand the literature of past generations. When the people became sick, no one knew what to do for them and though among the archives proscriptions were found, they were now only curiosities which Lingua Latina alone had tin power to interpret. The people could only look at them sadly for Lingua Latina was dead to them and they also must die. Dictum sapienti satis est, BERNICE MacLAFFERTY. —65— Q U I N I A U L T A Sophomore’s Dream OMEW HERE a clock struck ten with loud resounding chimes. I wearily closed my “Idylls of the King.” satisfied that I knew less than when I started in to review it, fully an hour before. I was aware of the fact that I was nearly asleep, but nevertheless, I continued to gaze with an abstracted air off into unlimited space. Struggling against sleep I let my gaze wander O' ei the room, pause at the dying fire and finally come to rest on the bright, gleaming armour of a knight in the corner. “Queer fellows—those knights,” I murmured indistinctly as T lazily viewed it through half-closed eyes, in which light it assumed an amazing size and loomed up a shining light in the dark corner. I was vaguely speculating on the weight of the helmet and was scanning it—when slowly, before my horrified and incredulous eyes the visor began to move upward as if pushed by an unseen hand. I leaned forward in my chair hardly daring to breathe. After vhat seemed centuries the visor came to rest on tin forehead revealing a human face. Startled, I fell back. I tried to scream. My voice was gone and words refused to come! The knight slowly and painfully stretched his arms and advanced with halting step toward me. Within a few feet of me, he bowed ceremoniously, “Nay. noble damsel, be thou not afraid, for known am I, from Arthur’s hall I come.” I began to show signs of reviving and straightened up in my chair. To my great surprise. I found myself answering with a wonderful show of self-possession. I beg your pardon, but I don’t believe I have ever had the honor of your acquaintance.” I was doubtful of the manner in which this strange person should be treated and was relieved to find him smiling and saying with an-otherly courtly bow. “Fair damsel, Launcelot. the chief of knights am I.” Needless to say. I was quite overwhelmed by his stately manners and to be perfectly honest, was highly flattered with his attentions. Mv, wasn t he handsome! Those flashing black eves—what a grand adventure to tell tin girls. I pictured myself the center of a spell-bound group. They would be simply green with jealousy to think that I had entertained a real knight. These and similar thoughts raced through my brain but I was brought back to the present by a slight cough, lie was patiently waiting for an answer. “Er—I—I—am so glad to know you. Mr. Lance—Launcelot.” I began to wonder what I should do to entertain him. With one eye on the piano, I stammered: “Would you like to hear me play?” —66— QUINIAULT “I really do play beautifully,” I added confidently. To iny disappointment he didn’t seem at all impressed but T arose ami walked to the piano. He followed with mouth and eyes wide open. 1 sorted some sheet music wondering if he would enjoy “Pretty Baby.” •lust then the telephone rang insistently. lie was across the room before I could turn around. I followed. Taking the receiver down 1 struggled to calm myself enough to say “Hello,” but I found myself gently pushed back into a chair. “Nay, nay, damsel; I pray thee let me conquer this evil monster.” Choking with subdued laughter 1 rose from the depths of the chair into which he had pushed me and began to explain. “Why, it won’t hurt you. That’s a telephone. Don’t you have one? Goodness, I suppose not.” I again took the receiver and said “Hello” in tones that must have given the person at the other end of the line a deafening shock. “No-o-o, father is out of town. Yes—certainly—Good-bye.” With this I hurried to the writing desk to set down the number for father. At the click of the receiver I turned to see the noble Launeelot regarding me with a blank expression. I left him regarding it suspiciously and was soon aware that he was standing watching every move I made. “How very rude,” was my first thought. But I soon discovered it was the paper knife which was holding his attention. “Why hast thou no long swords, damsel?” he inquired, flourishing it around in true knightly style, with such a light of battle in his eyes that 1 then and there, thanked my lucky stars it wasn t quite up to the standard size. Before 1 had time to explain he seized a tall goblet of liquid glue and raised it to his lips. I was powerless to do anything but go into spasms of laughter. The harder I tried to stop, the harder I laughed and the harder became the glue. He was sputtering and gasping, for his lips were sealed. Although he could not utter a word he was using signs and gestures that woidd have convinced a wooden Indian that he was in sore need of help. I rose, unsteadily, and securing my handkerchief from the table in my flight ran after him. Pushing him violently into the corner and standing on lip toe, 1 grasped his arm and tried my hardest to reach his mouth. The higher 1 reached the higher he grew. He seemed to grow and grow until his mouth became indistinct and far away. I was contemplating getting a stool when—suddenly the clock began to strike twelve. I stood transfixed. At the last stroke the vision —67— Q U I N I A U L T clamped shut with a metallic ring and I woke with a start to find myself effusively embracing the cold armor in the room. I glanced hastily around me. The fire was out and the room cold. Shuddering I picked up my “Idylls of the King” and as I passed the old armor in the corner, instinctively widened the distance between us and hurried off to bed to dream of my English exam, on the morrow. —JOSIE MOORE, ’17.

Several men from last year’s team were out and a number of new players from other schools formed a squad about which Coach Hawley built a fine team. The main trouble with the team was that the material was light. Yell leaders were Dick Hook, Ralph Vainmen and Pete Murchison. These, by the aid of a Rooters’ Club, formed a good pep organization. The most notable event in this line was the big Thanksgiving Rally on the eve of the big game. Students turned out in all sorts of duds and costumes and made things lively for the evening. At the various assemblies, business men from town spoke and there were also talks by students, team members, faculty and Alumni. Manager Brachvogel secured as many games as possible but limited finance curbed us somewhat in this direction. The outlook for the coming year is not particularly bright. It is, in fact, doubtful if there will be any inter-scholastic athletics because all the High Schools are depleted by the present war. Another fact to yau.se great regret is that Coach Hawley will probably not be back, having enlisted in the officers’ reserve training school. For four years Coach Hawley has worked hard and faithfully to turn out successful teams in Foot-ball, Track and Basket-ball. In the years 1913 and 1915, lie produced state championship teams in foot-ball, and in other years the teams have ranked high in state athletics. Besides his duties in these lines he has enthusiastically supported the school in every activity that it has taken up. Elmer Elliott was elected captain for the coming year at the annual banquet.

The High School lost the first game of the season to the Alumni, who greatly out-weighed the High School. The game was speedy and the boys showed up well against their larger opponents. Elliot scored a field goal in the first quarter from the 30-yard line. In the second half the High was forced on the defensive and Lyons did some good jHinting. The Alumni scored in the last quarter and kicked goal the game ending with the score of 7 to 3. —71— QUINIAULT Coach Don Hawley As a manager Warpy was a peach. In spite of financial handicaps, he secured a number of good games. The class of seventeen would have been proud to claim him. but he unfortunately left school at the end of the first semester. For four years it has been the good fortune of the Aberdeen High to have as its athletic coach Don Hawley. Hawley is a cracking good coach and a mighty good fellow besides. His track, football and basketball teams have always ranked up well with every other state team. If Mr. Hawley is called to the colors before next season the school will have a vacancy in every phase of its activity that will be hard to fill. Manager Ted Brachvogel VANCOUVER 0. ABERDEEN 48 Aberdeen easily beats Vancouver Hi. The High School easily beat the Vancouver team by the score of 48 to 0. Vancouver failed to pass Aberdeen s 80-yard line and they made first down but once. Lyons made six of the seven goals he tried for. MONTESANO 0. ABERDEEN 18. Aberdeen outweighed about 10 pounds, per man, but in spite of this disadvantage three touchdowns were scored. Sheik did some fine ot k in running back punts. Monte once crossed the line but it was on an incomplete pass and the ball was returned to its original position. U. OF W. FRESHMEN 18. ' ABERDEEN 0. Aberdeen was outweighed about 25 pounds per man but started —72— Q U I N I A IJ h T with a rush and made more yardage in the first quarter than did the University men. The Freshmen made one touchdown in each of the second and third quarters. The High came back hard again in the fourth quarter and the U. of W. had to work hard to keep them from scoring. A number of long passes were attempted but they all failed. The coach and supporters of the team were well satisfied with the showing made. The score was 13 to 0. ELMA 0. ABERDEEN 0. On a very wet and muddy field Aberdeen was unable to score against Elma. Elma had a very good team this year. The Aberdeen team was crippled by the absence of “Dim' and Lyons who were out oi the game on account of injuries. Ilerren. our left end, twice received a pass across the goal line but. owing to the wet and slippery condition of the ball, failed to hang onto it. Neither team scored a point during the game. EVERETT 19. ABERDEEN 0. Everett scored three touchdowns, two of which were flukes. The ERNEST AXLAND About Captain Axland there is scarcely enough to be said. As a football player he was A No. 1. Light but fast, with grit and nerve enough for a whole team. At school he was one of the most popular fellows, and his absence has been felt. Owing to the fact that he was on the Border at the beginning of the year and went with the militia again at the end, we have had mighty little of his acceptable company. Here’s a little sketch of life on the Border as Axland saw it last summer: “They took me from the cool state of Washington and brot me down where it is summer all winter and hell all summer. “They took away my good clothes and gave me a suit of red hot khaki. “They took away my good name and gave me number 494. “They took away my good job and put me digging ditches and walking a marathon until my arms and feet wore out. “They made me go to bed when I wasn’t sleepy and get up when I was. “They made me go to church on Sunday. “In church the preacher said, ‘All turn to number 494—Are you footsore and weary?’ And 1 got ten days in the guard house for answering, ‘Hell, yes’! —73— QUINIAULT field in Everett was frozen over and members of both teams were scratched np considerably. Everett made first touchdown in the second quarter by a series of runs and a pass. In the last of the third quarter Everett tried for a field goal but failed and an Everett man fell on the ball. The Aberdeen players thought the ball would be brought back to the 20-vard line and made no effort to recover the ball. However, the referee claimed that an Aberdeen player had touched the ball with his finger in trying to block the kick and gave them a touchdown. Aberdeen then played harder than ever and forced the ball to within 10 yards of their goal-line, but fumbled in an attempt to pass and an Everett man recovered the ball and ran 90 yards for the final touchdown. The score was 19 to 0. “Dim” was also absent from this game. HOQUIAM 3. ABERDEEN 0. This was a very interesting game as it was the great annual fight between the two teams. Ho |uiam crossed our goal-line twice but the ball was brought back each time, once for off-side playing and once because of an incomplete pass. Brown of Hoquiam punted in this game on an average of about 10 yards farther than did Lyons. Hoquiam succeeded in putting the ball over the bar in a place-kick during the third quarter. They tried place-kicks several times but only the one was successful. Aberdeen’s chance to score came in the last minute and a-half of the game. Lyons twice tried to cross the line but was brought back by the ruling of the referee. The next play resulted in a fumble and Aberdeen’s chances for victory were gone. Lyons and Hugo were the stars for Aberdeen while Brown did fine work for Hoquiam. TO A. H. S. To you dear old A. II. S.

At the interclass games the Seniors were successful in carrying off the Championship. After the class games were played, the first and second teams were organized. The second team was very successful in twice defeating the Hoquiam team. The first team was fortunate in securing games with Elma, Hoquiam and Montesano. Much excitement was caused by a dispute over the championship and as yet it has not been settled as Montesano refused to play a return game after defeating us by a small score on her own floor. —80— Q U I N I A U L T ABERDEEN vs. ELM A. On Friday. February 2nd, the Aberdeen girls played their first regular basketball game of the season with the Elma girls at the new “Gym.” Fine team work was shown and the game was very exciting because of the close score. At the end of the first half Elma was slightly in the lead, but this was easily overcome during the second half. At the end of the game the score stood 14 to 7 in Aberdeen’s favor. Our guests were entertained the remainder of the evening at an informal dance. A. II. S. vs. HOQUIAM HIGH. On Friday, February 16th, the Aberdeen girls played their old rival Hoquiam at the new “Gym.” The game was a decided victory for Aberdeen. At the end of the first half the score stood at 14 to 1 in Aberdeen’s favor and the final score was 18 to 8. HOQUIAM HIGH vs. A. II. S. Our second game with Hoquiam was played Ihursday. heb. 22nd, at Hoquiam. The game seemed to lack “pep” but in spite of this we won by a score of 14 to 7. MONT ESA NO HIGH vs. A. II. S. The most exciting game of the season was the game placed with Montesano, Friday, March 2nd, at Montesano. From the very first the game was close and hotly contested. The “Monte girls being used to the gym and their team work being more efficient, they kept slightly in the lead during the whole game. The final score was 14 to 14 in favor of Montesano. After the game the Montesano students gave a dance in honor of the Aberdeen team which was enjoyed by both high schools. ELMA HIGH vs. A. II. S. The last game of the season was played with the Elma girls at Elma. From the first the girls had the advantage over their opponents. The Elma girls fought hard, but were unable to stop the local team from piling up a score of 14 to 6. This was the second game these teams had played. After the game the Elma students entertained the team at an informal dance. Much of our success was due to the careful training of Mr. Hudson, who acted as coach for the season.

Lyons, Harris. II. Harris, Arnold, Turk and Herren of last year’s squad, are out. Resides these Berger, Wilson and Ilobi have graduated, while Edwards has quit school. There have been a number of meets arranged in different weight divisions and these will probably attract a good many candidates. A new departure will be tried when during the last week of May, a tennis tournament will be held. It was with great regret that track was dropped but it seemed the only way out of the situation. Last year the team won highest honors in all indoor and out-door county, local or Harbor meets. The team would have undoubtedly been as good this year as the majority of last year’s team did not graduate. Chronicles Chapter I. 1. And it came to pass in the third year of the reign of Heholmist, King of Aherdenhi, that these events arose. 2. And King Heholmist was a prince of the House of Lelandstan, and had come up out of the south to rule this people. 3. And in the south he was a man of mighty valor and held seats in the halls of judgment of that land. 4. In Aherdenhi his name became a password of the people, and his signature a passport to bliss. (Here tin1 translation is a little vague, perhaps class-rooms is the more literal meaning.) 5. There dwelt in the land of this King a mighty man of valor who for four years had held command. 6. The strong men, even all of them, were given over to the care of him. 7. And his name was Hawlea, a name to be conjured with and feared bv the people of all nations round about him. 8. And the strong men, even all the strong men, were given to his care and training. 9. And it happened that roundabout this land were mighty peoples. 10. Even these, the Hoquiamite, the Monteite, the Elmanite and the Everettite, the Freshmanite, a branch of the house of UnofW., and the Vancouverites and the Alumnites. 11. And it became rumored in the land of Aherdenhi that there were mighty armies in these lands. —82— Q U I X I A U L T 12. And Ilawlea, even he, the strong man of the land, the man of valor, called out the young men of the land. 13. And from sun rise to even and from day unto day and week unto week, the mighty men came to him for care and instruction. 14. And the weak became strong and the strong stronger. And it came to pass even so. And this had consumed some thirty days. 15. And the maidens of the land, even the fairest of them, went out among tin people and cried. 16. ‘Hear us oh you Bznisman, for we are sore in need of kale and will trade unto you this token for a mite.” (A mite in this land is ten cents.) 17. And the maidens of the land, even the fairest of them, went out and spoke thus and great were the results thereof. 18. And the men of Aberdenhi, the former men of valor, met the men of tin land in a great tournament. 1i). And the young men fought well and hard but the old men gained an advantage thru experience thereof. 20. And the battle waxed long and hotly hut at sun down the hosts of Ilawlea were forced to retreat. 21. And it became rumored thru the land that the hosts of the Vancouverites were advancing from the south. 22. And the hosts of the men of Aberdenhi, girded up themselves for the fray. 24. And the hosts of tin land of the Vancouverites retreated with great loss even unto the number of seven Touchdowns. 25. And there came up also the Monteites and their fate was similar to that of the Vancouverites. Chapter II. 1. But the men of the land of Aberdenhi became reckless and offended their great god Luk. 2. And the forces of the Freshmanites came and met the forces of Ilawlea on the field of Stewart. 3. And the battle waxed hotter and hotter, but the men of Ilawlea were less than those of the enemy. 4. And in the fourth watch tin forces of Ilawlea were surrendered over. 5. And there came also the Elmanite, hut the forces of the enemy were repulsed. 6. And then Ilawlea, even the strong man, the man of valor, addressed his men thus. 7. “We have withstood the plots of our enemies, let us hence to the gates of the walls of the Everettites.” 8. And so they embarked. Hawlea and the men of valor, even all of them, for the city of the Everettites. —83— Q U I N I A U L T 0. And there they were defeated, even all the strong men of Aber-denhi. 10. And it eame to pass in the third month of the third year of the reign of King Ileholmist. 11. That the Hoquiamites, even they, the land at the West of the land of our King, became incensed. 12. And rose up, declaring vengeance on the strong men of Aber-denhi, even the men of Ilawlea, the man of valor. 13. And the forces of Ilawlea advanced and met the forces of the land of the Hoquiamites at Electripark. 14. And the fight waged back and forth, and neither side could gain even an yard. 15. And the maidens of the land of the Kings, and the old men and the youths, sang loud rooting yells and danced to give courage to their strong men and flung at each other curses and imprecations. 16. And in the third hour the men of the land of the Iloquiamitc were renewed by new men. And they forced the men of Ilawlea for a fieldgole. 17. And the men of Ilawlea responded nobly but the great god Luk turned away his face and the fight was lost. 18. And these events came to pass in the third year of the reign of Ileholmist. It). That in these battles the men of Ilawlea. even tin strong man. the man of valor, fought well and nobly. 20. And the men of Aberdenhi swore vengeance and even in the swearing thereof was resolve. 21. And the rumors of wars during the fourth year of tin reign of the King from the south are feared little. 22. And these are the main events in the third year of the reign of Ileholmist, the wise man from the south. The Young Men’s Commercial Club A new experiment in student activity was tried this year in the formation of a Young Men’s Commercial Club. The object of the club was to bring the boys of the school into closer relationship with the business men of the city. Owing to the war, which took the most active members, and lack of any definite aim, the club dwindled away after an existence of some six months. The meetings were held every Wednesday evening in the High School until the early part of this .year when the Chamber of Commerce rooms at the Hotel Washington were opened to the club. —84— Q U I N I A U L T The plan, which is unlike any other school commercial organization, was originated by Mr. Holmquist, the principal. The idea is an attractive one and brought a large amount of press comment from newspapers and civic magazines of nation-wide circulation. It is the idea of Mr. Ilolmquist that next year the meetings can be held during some period within school hours. The first meeting of .boys brought out about twenty of the most active school workers. A committee was appointed to draft a constitution. At the next meeting the constitution was read and adopted. Officers elected were Tom OTIare, president; Ilenry Callison, vice president; Eric Strommer. treasurer, and Arthur Williams, secretary. Besides regular meetings the Club took charge of the Thanksgiving Rally, which proved the most successful football rally in recent years. Another feature of the year was the big banquet at the Hotel Washington on December 13th. Besides five speakers from the club, Mr. Holmquist gave 1 Ik address of the evening. The feed was a roaring good time from beginning to end. Various men who spoke at the meetings of the club were: Mr. Blyth. who spoke at the meeting on November 8. 1916. His talk dealt with “Salesmanship and Business.” On November 15th, the club visited the regular meeting of the city council. On December 6th, Senator Boner gave a talk on “Legislation in Washington or How a Bill Becomes a Law in This State.” In the early part of the year tin club took charge of the City Commercial Club or Chamber of Commerce, potato raising contest. The boys took charge of securing lots, getting entries and explaining conditions and rules to members of various schools. Every member of the club served on some committee, there being a Board of Control composed of chairmen of various committees and a member of committees as Special Cooperation, Entertainment, Publicity, National Affairs, Membership, Education and Employment and Labor. The members of the club were: Russel Austin, William Axland, Ernest Axland. Roger Blackburn, Ted Brachvogel, DeWitt Bertrand. Edgar Anderson, Charles Murchison, Pete Murchison, Eric Stroximer. Henry Callison, Ed Green, Russel Linn, Joe Fox, Cecil Turk, Edward Remmelmeyer, Harold Ewart, Leslie Morgan, Gordon Tebb, Elwood Hogan, Robert McKeever. Arthur Wiliiams, Anthony .Joseph. William Maxwell. Tom OTIare, Wallace McClymont, Ormond Hill. Harold Anderson, Carl McClung. Neil McPhee.

Leslie Morgan Dorothy Watson ...Sarah Elway Catherine Miller .Jeanette Ilogan This three-act farce was presented at the Grand theater on Friday evening. April 27. by the Senior class. The scene of the play is laid at Oxford, where Jack and Charlie find themselves involved in the usual complications of love. The way looks easy when Charlie s aunt wires she will arrive. The boys immediately invite the girls and then—horror of horrors—the aunt wires she will not come. Lord Babberlv, much against his will, is forced to impersonate the aunt. Because of Donna’s extreme wealth Spettigue and Sir Francis lay furious siege to her heart and hand. Babbs enjoys the situation, especially flirting with the girls, much to the discomfort of their gallant suitors. But then the aunt arrives, accompanied by Ella, with whom Babbs had fallen in love during a previous visit to Monte Carlo. After a series of situations and climaxes Babbs, the “aunt” from Brazil, “where the nuts come from.” regains his masculine garb and all ends happily with a bright outlook for the real Donna and Sir Francis, Jack and Kitty, Charlie and Amy, and Babbs and Ella. The play this year was brought to the point of production through trials and difficulties to try the temper of a most divine saint. When the Naval Militia left, Harold Messer, who had the part of Charlie, and Russell Linn, as Brasset, left. Their places were filled by Eric Strommer and Leslie Morgan, a Sophomore. The date was set for Friday, the 20th. On the 17th. Tom O’Hare and Henry Callison left. Their places Charlie Wykeham.......... Lord Fancourt Babberlv . Sir Francis Chesnay......

These two deserve much praise for the work they expended in bringing their parts to form in so short a time. When Henry Callison, who was also business manager, left. Pete Murchison, president of the Freshman class, took his place. The Senior class owe a hearty vote of thanks for his work in this direction. The cast this year was ably coached by Miss Agnes Ilobi. who for three years has been unusually successful in her stage directing. The play was. as usual, a success in every way. The audience was kept, in a roar of laughter during the entire evening and tin man at the box office was kept busy as well. The music for the play was furnished by the High School Orchestra. The German Play HERE is the broken key? What has become of the pearl handled knife? Where can the vase, and the bronze figure be found? Who took Richard’s ring and where in all creation is Eveline’s garter? These are only a few of the articles whoe mysterious disappearances form the plot for the play, “Klepto-manie, which the German 4 class staged in the auditorium of the school on Friday night. March 23. The cast of characters is as follows : Professor Leberecht Buchner... Eveline, his wife............. Lili, their daughter ......... Dr. Richard Frisch, Dili's fiance Assessor Ilastig ............. Antonie, the maid ............ .....Eric Strommer .......Marion Crary .........Sarah Elway ......El wood Hogan .......Julius Tobey Margueriette Whelan I he story of the play centers around Dr. Frisch, whom Eveline suspects of being a kleptomaniac. Sin confides her suspicions to her very absent-minded husband; tells of the mysterious disappearance of a piece of black sealing wax and one of her garters. The professor is unconvinced and thinks her very foolish, but Eveline is determined to prove herself in the right Frisch comes to call on Lili and while awaiting her coming complains of having lost a ring given him by her. He is so sure that he left it in his rooms and cannot account for its disappearance. Desperate for fear of her anger when she discovers its loss, he forcibly takes possession of a ring like it belonging to Antonie, tin1 maid. She protests tearfully but in vain since he is determined to keep the knowledge of it from the one he loves. Lili finally comes in inquiring for the cause of Antonie’s grief and he tells her that the ring was too tight and he had to take it off and hurt —88— GERMAN PLAY KLEPTOMANIE” CAST Reading left to right: Eric Strommer, Margueriette Whelan, Julius Tobey, Marion Crary, Elwood Hogan, Sarah Elway. Q U I N I A U L T herfinger in the process. After awhile Eveline enters and notices the absence of a pearl-handled knife from tin table. She endeavors to get it from Frisch on the pretense of sharpening a pencil but, to her disgust, he produces a much smaller one and indignantly protests his innocence of any theft. After his departure Antonie enters with her tale of woe and adds proof to her suspicions of Frisch. Then comes Assessor llastig seeking the Doctor to obtain from him a pocketbook which he had left on the table tin last time they had lunched together and which he believes is in tin young man’s possession. Eveline accepts this as another link in the chain of evidence against Frisch. The professor, however, still feels that Frisch is innocent and his stubbornness so incenses Eveline that she resolves on an experiment. She leaves a broken key on the table and prophecies that it.too, will disappear. Antonie in dusting breaks a vase and hides the pieces. Then Frisch enters and seeing on the shelf a small bronze figure resolves to borrow it and have a duplicate made for a birthday gift to Dili. The Buchners enter and first of all Eveline misses the key. She accuses Frisch and while In protests suddenly discovers that a vase also has disappeared, while Dili exclaims over the absence of the littie bronze figure. In his excitement, Frisch pulls a han Ikerchief from his pocket and the bronze figure falls from it. Now proof is complete and the discomfitted young man leaves the house in a rage. But now comes llastig. telling them that Frisch has returned his pocketbook and explained its accidental taking. lie also reports that the doctor is very angry over the accusations of the Buchners. Being asked concerning the bronze figure he tells why Frisch took it and at the mention of the proposed gift Dili relents and goes back to defending her fiance. Then Antonie enters and informs them that her ring iias been returned and finally comes Frisch, himself having discovered his own ring in use as a bookmark. lie accuses the professor of putting It there and that absent-minded gentleman admits lie did so. Upon investigation all the other missing articles are discovered; the pieces of the broken vase being produced by Antonie, and the sealing wax, knife and garter with numerous other things each marking a place at which the professor was interrupted in his reading. Peace being restored and the somewhat dazed professor duly forgiven, the play comes to a happy ending. —90— MARION CKARY. '17. r i n i a r i, t Declamation HR ANNEAL declamatory contest of the Aberdeen High School was given in the school auditorium on the evening of Friday, May 4. The award, a handsome silver medal, went to Ruth Hill, Freshman. This is the first medal in four years to go to any other than a member of the Class of ’17. Miss Ilill was unusually good altho closely crowded for honors by the other members. -Much credit is due to Miss Rupp, Miss Hanson and Miss Fink, who each coached fro mtwo to three contestants. The number of contestants, Much credit is due to Miss Rupp, Miss Hanson, .Miss Bush and .Miss Fink, who each coached from two to three contestants. The number of contestants, eight, was the largest in a number of years.

Ruth is a Freshman and was the youngest of the contestants but proved far superior. She probably will be sent to participate in the State contest. Brenda Wartman of Montesano won second prize, her selection being the sleep-walking scene from “Macbeth.” George Hoag of Iloquiara won third place. Other contestants were Carl McNutt of Elma and Grace Whelan of Cosmopolis. F. L. Morgan of Iloquiam, F. W. Loomis of Aberdeen, Mrs. A. F. Bellman of Cosmopolis, W. L. Boomer of Elma and A. R. Rankin of Montesano were the judges. Debate Debate this year was, for some reason or other, a rather dead letter in the school. There were no interscholastic nor any first teams in the school. One reason for this was that tin course in Public Speaking covers the ground thoroly and reaches a greater number of students. Debate this year was under tin direction of .Miss Fink, Miss ilanson and Mr. Balkema. The question for debate was: “Resolved: That a system ol compulsory military training of an equivalent of not less than two hours a week should be adopted in all high schools of the state of Washington having an enrollment of over twenty boys.” On Friday afternoon, February 2, the Sophomores lost to tin Freshman team. On Friday afternoon, February 23, a Senior-Junior team defeated the Freshman team. The Freshmen upheld the affirmative.

Q IJ 1 N I A U L T Chorus The chorus, which numbers nearly one hundred and fifty voices, has done exceptionally good work the past year through the conscientious and successful efforts of Miss Cavanagh. Though the chorus has sung very few times at assemblies, beautiful selections have been prepared and these will be rendered when the occasion presents itself. Wanda Wolkowicz, the accompanist for Chorus and Glee clubs, is a talented and capable pianist. The High School Orchestra The High School Orchestra has accomplished much this year. At the first of the term, it was decided to have an orchestra composed only of boys, and on most occasions this has been the case. The membership has been increased considerably and the orchestra is now composed of three violins, cornet, flute, drums and piano. Before the war there was also a piccolo, but now “Yorkie,” the player of that instrument, is with the Naval Militia. The orchestra has furnished music for several assemblies, a dance or two, the Senior Play, and expects to play at the Graduation Exercises. Owing to the fact that several of the musicians were in the Senior Play cast, the orchestra was changed slightly, by placing Wanda Wolkowicz at the piano, for whose able services the orchestra members are very grateful, and the addition of Mr. Timpi, who, although not a student, is young and a competent player. Those who have played with the orchestra this year are: Leonard Carlson. Eric Strommer, Arthur Williams, Elwood Hogan. Roger Blackburn. Wanda Wolkowicz. George Mitchell. Harold Litle, Mr. Timpi, Dewey Wilson and Harold Ewart. -94- Q U I N I A U L T ukelele club Left to right: Elta Cady, Catherine Hook. Helen Chamberlain. Helen Morley, Henrietta Brumberg.

Organized in the late winter by four frivilous “Freshies,” Catherine Ilook, Elta Catly, Ellen Jones, Helen Morley. and two sedate Sophomores, Henrietta Brumberg and Helen Chamberlain, the club has played a number of times in public, and in such a manner as to delight music lovers. Notably at the St. Patrick’s Day entertainment, given by the Student Body, the “I'kies” proved a success when they responded most graciously to encore after encore. —95 — Q li 1 N I A i; L 'I’ HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA Left to right: Eric Strommer, 2nd violin; Roger Blackburn, solo violin; Dewey Wilson, flute; George Mitchell, cornet; Harold Little, drums; Arthur Williams, piano; Leonard Carlson, 1st violin.

JEANETTE IIOGAX, ’17. —96— Q U 1 X I A U L T Many happy times mark Ihe social calendar of the past school year. Due to the departure of Company G and the Naval Militia, it was deemed wise to forfeit entirely the Senior Ball, an event much anticipated by every graduating class. However, the Athletic Ball and the Junior Prom stand as the pleasant events of the year 1917. Successes both socially and financially they are no mean credit to the High School. Many informal dances were given to honor our own and visiting football teams by the Naval Militia and Company G at the armory. These parties were keenly appreciated by the students and young people of Aberdeen. The Sophomores honored the Freshmen with the annual Frosh Reception at the new Gym. Ferns and class colors were used cleverly for decorations. Games, dancing and light refreshments filled a too short evening. The committee was composed of Russell Austin, Henrietta Brum-berg, Wanda Walkowicz, Fern Weatherwax. Helen Chamberlain and Edward Green. The High School Orchestra furnished the music for dancing. The annual Thanksgiving Ball was given in the armory in honor of the Aberdeen and Hoquiara football teams by the Naval Militia on the evening of tin annual game between the two squads. This was the first large dance of tin season. Friday evening, December 15, 1916, the Athletic Ball was given in the Eagles’ hall by the Associated Students of the High School. Ropes of greens and school pennants and colors transformed the large hall into a bower of greens. Punch was served from a booth attractively decorated in blue and gold. The committee for this event included Tom O’llare, Catherine Miller. Mary Donovan, Dorothy Watson, Henry Calli-son and Eric Strommer. The Junior class gave the annual Junior Prom on Friday evening, January 19. 1917. The Eagles’ hall was decorated in greens and the class colors, green and white. Good music and a large crowd fully repaid the Juniors for the hard work. —MARY DONOVAN, 17. —97— Q IJ I N I A U I, T ♦ ♦♦ SUimni ♦ ♦♦ Genie Maude Mason Ada R.

U L T I Consider, my daughter, the way of a man in a quarrel with a woman. For lo! his slogan is “Defiance—not Defense!” and the serpent himself, had not more ingenuity, in taking the initiative. Behold, when he hath neglected and forgotten thee for an whole fortnight doth he return unto thee in sorrow and repentance and with tears and words of pleading? Nay verily! He is mightily “offended,” and summoneth thee haughtily upon the telephone, saying: “Look who’s here! Even I, Algernon whom thou hast cast out and deserted! Alas, where hast thou been? And what in the world have I done that thou hast forgotten me? Yea, why hast thou not called me up?“ And lo, she that was prepared for battle is covered with confusion and apologies, and her tongue is broken against her. When an husband arriveth two hours late for dinner, doth he approach with fear and trembling, and flowers and explanations? Nay, nay! He cometh with the grouch - that - knoweth-no-brother, and divers complainings that he must work so hard, and that the dinner is cold, and his wife not waiting upon doorstep to greet him with kisses and a cry of joy. For, alas, every man knoweth the advantage of being the “injured” one, in a quarrel. And whatsoever thou dost, my daughter, thou art always “in the wrong.” If thou flirtest with a man, thou hast shattered his illusions. And if thou wilt not flirt with him, thou hast stabbed his vanity. I fthou takest his words seriously, thou hast “misunderstood” him. And if thou takest them lightly thou hast “insulted” him. If thou arguest with him, thou art “nagging” him to desperation. And if thou closest thy lips and wilt not argue, thou are pouting. If thou flatterest and coaxest him, thou art trying to beguile him. And if thou criticiset and reprovest him, thou are robbing him of his selfesteem. If thou sighest and weepest, thou borest him to distraction. And if thou clingest to him, thou art a nuisance and an incumbrance. And if thou droppest him, thou art a coquette without scruples. If thou desirest to marry him, thou menacest his freedom. If thou refusest to marry him, thou “wreckest his life! Therefore, I charge thee, seek not to put any man in the wrong, but for whatsoever he hath done, suffer thy- —107— Q IJ I N I A IJ Ij T BIJOU BARBER SHOP Children's Hair Cutting a Specialty self to be “blamed,” today, yesterday and forever. For, whatsoever tack thou takest he shall confuse thee and rout thee “coming and going.” (New York Evening World.) Don’t forget, gentle reader, that humor, like history, repeats itself. Rena B.—Who is Burbank? Eva M.—A professional grafter. Leslie M. (looking under desks and chairs)—I guess its on the roof. Victor C.—What's that? Leslie M.—The chimney. Ralph V.—My dear, if you could see my heart you would see your name written there. Lilian M.—Yes. But I’m afraid it would look like a hotel register. A teacher is only a signpost pointing the way. The pupil must educate himself. A lobster will be a lobster still, if the bottom of the ocean is lined with signposts. Store Phone 496 Res. Phone 1956-R J. J.

By Jack Milton Shortfellow, In Three Reels. Reel 1. Interior of a department store in Cruller, Wyoming. Restless Ranson is the owner. Paper Weight Paulson, who is a very close friend of Ruby’s sells tooth brushes, nail files and grapefruit. Rubenstein is a clerk in the store. Ruby is accused of stealing green trading stamps. Ruby quits, very excited over the affair. Paper Weight also quits. Reel II. Paper Weight starts training cross-eyed jellyfish for an extended vaudeville tour over Strand circuit. The jellyfish becomes very proficient in the art of imitating a pancake flopping in a fryingpan. Reel III. Aboard the “Peace Ship Oscar II, mid-ocean. Just as Ruby and Paper Weight leave for Europe Restless comes running down the dock, but it is too late. He then engages a submarine and pusues the Oscar II, intending to blow up the ship. Just as the periscope is seen nearing the surface, Paper Weight throws his jellyfish overboard. The jellyfish makes jelly out of the currents in the ocean and further progress of the submarine is stopped. Therefore, Restless has nothing to eat except jelly on which he soon starves to death, “jammed” in a wave of jelly. The papers said, “In spite of all, his body is well preserved.” Ruby and Paper Weight reach Europe safely and live happily ever afterward.

A Henry, which bore, mid snow and ice, A printed card of strange device. For Hire! The driver lay outstretched beneath, Profanity poured between his teeth. Against the axle, these words rung In accents of unknown tongue, For Hire! Against a pole in the morning gray, Badly wrecked, the jitney lay. Still grasping in his hands of ice The driver held the strange device, For Hire! —Exchange. It was cold, It was cold, Her hands were cold, too.
