LEO Dowxi-:R SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In tl1e fall of the sixteenth year of the twentieth century a goodly com- pany of ladies and youths pilgrimaged to a land that to them had been un- known. It was not, however, an unheard-of place: for many and thrilling were the tales coming from the 'tlllestf' Having declared it a city villa of that world-famous tribe of 1920, they proceeded to civilize it according to their own customs. But all could not be done in a day. The denizens of that land were slow to understand the new order of things: but the light began to dawn upon them when o11e of the illustrious newcomers XVOII the Mary Louise IVhite contest. In time minor reforms were brought about, such as proving that ta-1-lijzzai'-I-Qab-I-lf, and that Latin is a dead language, to say nothing of their convincing essays on 'tHow I Spent Last Summer. Also thev could answer the most difficult questions in Greek and Roman history with apparent UH ease. Still much remained to be done, and, after lecturing in the motherland for a brief three months' furlough, they returned with different titles. having learned that the term '4Freshma.nl' was a discordant sound to the natives. In this year, true to form, they retook the Mary Louise Ivhite prize, and also captured the Prize Debate. Having made a little headway the previous year, the colonists scattered, some continuing their former occupations, and others turning to new fields. In this manner Ft. Latin was strengthened and Mathematics continued on the immense Plane, Geometry. Port. English-had been established the preceding year, and was not left Shorthanded at thetimc. Gen. Science was followed by a group of stalwart pioneers who learned from him that all was l10t gold that glittered. This year they also expounded the history of England to the natives. They were somewhat surprised to find that said natives knew something about England. It seems that the natives, had, by tradition and crude inscriptions on parchment, kept a fragmentary record of what was told them by early explorers. Much help was gained in military matters by the study of Caesars Gallic IVars in the original language. This led to the organization of an Army called the H. S. Vfs fHouse Servants and Valetsj. They were clothed at their own expense in uniforms resembling those of a modern bell-hop. The year following, leaving most of the established settlements in the hands of successors, they made great headway in their scholastic undertaking. The arrogant inhabitants, being forced out by the steady progress of the set- tlers, were at that time greatly diminished in numbers, and bade fair to become extinct, while at the same time showing no evidences of becoming civilized. The colonists predominated in everything pertaining to the place, both literary and physical. These sturdy people went so far as to win from the natives at track meets and the like, and startled the wo1'ld by their watery victory in the famous Tug of VVar. A democ1'atic form of government was established at that time, and continues to this day. This was due to a new idea introduced to them by Medicine Man Morris who patiently set forth his theory until it was thoroughly imbedded in their minds. A movement was also put on foot Page Eleven to teach the natives something about Physics. One group of informers worked on thirteen different cases, teaching each a littleg but only one, Hocus Pocus Fergus, was able to survive the terrific mental strain of more than a month's work. Others studied solids in the University of Geometry, and discovered many perfect ones, some resembling to a marked degree the human head. During June of that year, a dread disease called Graduation carried off all but one or two of the original population, leaving the control in the hands of the settlers. The disease also took two or three of the settlers themselves who had been too diligent and were therefore too weak to throw off the con- tagion. Still, this was the greatest year that the domain had ever witnessed. The colonists were called ttSeniors, a derivation of the word t'Seigneur,', meaning ttnoblemanf' As would be expected, they ruled wisely and justly tsee Appendix, Note lj. By this time they had become highly intellectual and would tolerate no common literature. A work by one Edmund Burke was even criticised and condemned. Finding prose too dull, they read the poelns of Milton, Burns, and Shakespeare, This too became tiresome, so, for recrea- tion, they read at odd times a worthy contemporary work called t'Bill Nye's History of the U. S. Under Hocus Pocus Fergus, they studied the compo- sition of compounds, using a text-book on Alchemy tderived from Chemistryj. Perhaps the most familiar was a compound made of saccharine matter, lac- teal fluid, and cocoa. At the University of Geometry tsee Appendix, Note QQ, Analytics was studied, combined with a subject known as Algebra. Dominating in all branches of learning and athletics, they now give prom- ise of making Burke and the Admiralble Crichton shiver in their graves, and were Milton alive, he would not need eyes to see the brilliance of their careers. Should that plague, Graduation, e'er return, let us hope that all or none may gog and that in the future state all may strive even more nobly and with more success than they did as the Class of ttTwenty', in old iVest Side.

SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY One day when I was wandering around by myself on the prairie east of Denver. I noticed an airplane graieefiflly soaring above me. As I idly watched it, the plane landed and the pilot came towards me. Though dressed as an aviator, little winged-shaped things on his cap and shoes, reminding me of the statue of Mercury in the hall at high school, suggested the flight of time. On closer View I saw strange markings on his suit like camouflage in orange and black. The figures bore an uncanny resemblance to the number 1920. Approaching me he introduced himself as the fate of the 1920 class of West. HI am taking you, he said, 'tto the Land of Years Unborn and Deeds Yet Undone. There in the Theatre of Time you will see a movie of the future. Soon our plane a-lighted before a majestic theatre flying an orange and black pennant. I was far too excited to notice the cast of eliaraeters or the name of the play. The scene opened in an Orphans' Asylum. A big boy came in dragging a little girl by the hand and the matron in the next room called after them, 4'VVhen will you children grow up? At that they turned and who should they be but Herman Clow and Eva Greenameyer? Herman was much the same for he teasingly yelled back at the exasperated matron. She was fair, fat, and forty with something rather familiar about her appearance. It was Marie Bollinger. She gave Herman a smart rap on the ear and sent him down to the kitchen. He made for the pantry but was violently thrown out by the cook, a wiry man with red hair, Robert Graeber. I11 the midst of all this confusion the doorbell rang and Eva admitted a jolly opulent-looking man, Gordon Gillard, who proposed in a philanthropic manner to give the orphans a treat by taking them to the circus. The matron gave orders to the handy man, Norman Dunnavant, to have the Ford ready for the children who were too young to walk. Oh, the wild excitement of an orphanage getting ready to go to a circus! Finally the matron and the cook started with about fifty of the older chil- dren and Norman came in the Ford with the babies. Of course, Lizzie balked and with it and the kids Norman had his hands full until a Cadillac roadster drew up beside him. It was Irwin Colemere, who assisted Norman and then hurried to catch a train for New York where he was to assume the duties of business manager for Farnum St. John on the Orpheum circuit. In the grounds a strangely dressed man with long hair and a weird ex- pression- was excitedly mingling with the crowd giving out anti-circus pro- Page Twenty-seven SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY tContinuedJ paganda. It was Herbert Quaintance. The matron found a friend, the fa- mous heart specialist. Mildred Thompson. Vllhile they were talking, Herman. in quest of a balloon, ran pell-mell into a stern looking man who scolded him well. declaring that in his school days all the boys were model young men. It was Harry Horner, the proprietor of the New Light institution. In the mean- time Robert, the cook, was having his troubles. W'hile procuring the tickets he tread upon the hat of a lady who proved to be Mary Sereff, the author of many stories of Bohemian life in New Yo1'k. At last they were all seated. The ring master was a wonder. He showed unusual ability and leadership. Of course, it was Howard Christenbury. The prize act was bare-back riding by Mildred Jackson, who said that she got her training with a. pony in Latin. Six natty jockeys, Blanche Almberg, Louisa Baker, Marie Backus, Ida Marcus, and Dora Lucas, came in jauntily dressed in riding suits with shining boots and belts. The circus had clowns but Vharles Ramus was the most amusing while posing as the governess of a naughty child. The orphans became almost uncontrollable. A kind old maid, Florence McC'oy. with a little lap dog. bought them some taffy because they were good to her Sweetums.,' Marie confiscated the candy bringing forth a howl from the children and an irritated growl from a nearby Greek scholar, Louie lValters. At last the circus was over a11d the orphans started home. Robert and Marie were with the older children wildly blowing on tin horns and squealers, waving balloons, and eating peanuts. Norman was last seen trying to patch a tire and console a heart-broken baby. In the Current Events. I saw the future of several of my class. Francis lVyant, the noted humorist. was making a tour of the country. Pictures of the Rocky Mountain National Park were shown. The special feature of tlllS playground was the women guides among whom. I saw Crystal Callahan and Lucille Knox. Much helpful work in sanitation was being done in Mexico City. Two well known workers were Irene Plank and Thelma H1ll. The interesting invention for the reproduction of the voice with the movies was demonstrated. The inventor was lValter Judge. Avis Conroy, the heroine of the hour, had gone through the hands of the treacherous Turks to rescue some Armenian children. Violet Lerch and Margaret Hearne were engaged in a most patriotic work as farmerettes. So ended the Current Events. The main feature was a play entitled The iVager. The scene opened at a large banquet in lVashington. Educators from all over the United States had come to hear Arthur lVitt. the principal of the famous West Side High School, speak on loyalty and school spirit. After the talk a small group gath- ered in the lobby. Among them were John VVeisz, an evangelist of the Billy Sunday type, Kenneth Greenawalt, secret-ary of the Department of Educa- tion. Mrs. Lilly Edquist Bennett, president of the National Mothers' Con- gress, Helen Warner, art supervisor of the Chicago schools, and Mr. Cheatem. a profiteer. The latter was saying something about that utommy rot stuff, school spirit. 'tLook here, Mr. Cheatem,', said Johnnie, 'chow do you get that way? I'll wager that every member of the class of '20 is still loyal to WVest.,' I'll give you a million dollars for a school building if you prove it, Mr. Cheatem answered. Page Twenty-eight SENIGR CLASS PROPHECY CContinuecD 'CIS dot possible? Here's to a million dollar VVest. VVe'll score four points already, myself, Kenneth, Lilly and Helen here. Then we'll find the members of '20. In New York they found Frances VVinter, the artist. She greeted them with a happy story of how much the work on the Annuail had helped her career. There they also ran across Elwood Claughton, the actor, and Eugene Madden, the politician of Tammany Ring. Both spoke pleasantly of iVest, Elwood thinking of the 'time he was Tam o'Shanter and Eugene remembering Senior English class elections. ttThat's seven ll' said Lilly. GCI , .L 'd v . 79 ' CC , . l'7 neiei sal a ii old, replied John. Now foi Europe. At London they met the charming wife of the American ambassador, Mrs. Frances Kirchner Thomas. Her pleasantest memory seemed to be of the Fashion Show. It had given her so much poise. VVhom did they find in Parliament but Harriet Schwartz? Harriet was writing a book on Burke because she had become interested in his epigrams in English. Esther Sapper was her secretary. Both were eager to taflk of old times. In Ireland they encountered Ed O'Hara who was raising potatoes to feed the starving people of Cork. He and Charles Hagerty. who was a lec- turer on the proper conduct of Irish wives. including his own, had a gleeful tilne remembering IVest. Elsa. VVuebbenhorst was a linen maker. She asked John if the Home Economics department was still flourishing. He answered. HI forget. 'tIVe will find Chet in France. said Kenneth. They found him in'Paris, a costume designer in a fashionable dress-making establishment for which oc- cupation he thanked the class play. ' Stanlino VVillissi, as he now called himself, was in the Italian Opera Com- pany. His melnory was of Scrooge. IVhile they were talking, another mem- ber of the company entered. Mable Peterson or Mme. Pierrefils' most pleas- ant thought of lvest was the Chinese Operetta. All of the party were happy except Mr. Cheatem. who though annoyed by Johnny,s constant. ttSince de day vot you got de egg was still confident in his wager. The next stop was Marseilles. Here Jack Zelinkoff was engaged in ex- ploring 'the bottom of the Mediterranea.n. Dahlia Dill and Caroline Kuch examined specimens that Jack brought up. He asked about IVest's baseball team and Dahlia and Caroline wondered about the Physics lab. In Russia they heard that Maurice Dill, the head of the Soviet govern- ment, was besieging the castle of a nobleman. an Earl. when he discovered that the earl's wife was Gladys Swem. an old IVest Denverite. Ivith her. as a governess for her children, was Eleanor Crook. Because of this he gave up the siege. Mr. Cheatem was satisfied with this report. so without stopping they went on to China. In Pekiiyg at a school for Chinese girls was Margaret Regan teaching Domestic Science. She 'told Helen that the training she received in the luncheons served to the football boys had helped her hold her position. Australia proved to contain a Quaker colony headed by Joe Groussman. Frank Bodine, Gertrude Ellis. Louise Braun and Florence LeGault were there. The girls raised cats. lVhen the party arrived. the colony gave them a royal welcome with pennants, yells. and songs of lVest. On now to the Philippines they went, meeting Gerald Miller there doing his utmost to secure independence for the islands. He and Kenneth exchanged memories of the Debate. Mrs. Zella Hensley Brown worked for VVoman's Suffrage in Manila. V Page Twenty'nine SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY fConcludecll The 11ext stopping point was Alaska. VVhd should be there but Mabel Slee and Leo Downer! Mabel was a fish inspector at a Cannery. Leo, with his charming Esquimo bride, ran an athletic school for the natives. His boys sent a gift to the present students of West. Mabel declared that nothing had made her so happy for a long time as this little journey into Memory Land. The famous woman president of Berkeley University they discovered was Kathryn VVernet. Kathryn jokingly said that as King of Wisdom in ttEager Heart' she had been started on the right road. Raising spineless cactus in the California desert was the occupation of some of our class. Clarke Williams, Mrs. Mary Rogers Smith, Miller Mussey, and Fern Spratlen were all there. Fern still wrote poetry. All four were glad to see the party. In a Mission convent in Southern California Helen and Lilly found Ruth Harvey, Garnett Buck, and Ruth Antles. Garnett was the Mother Superior, the others newcomers. They were pale, wan, and sad with their shaven heads and somber dress, but they enjoyed a brief respite in talking of gay high sc-hool days. Herbert Lomas was in Dallas, Texas. On seeing John he began an ex- cited account of the Minstrel Show and how he was preparing his darkies for the vaudeville. The two gave a performance on the spot, to the astonish- ment of those passing and the delight of some of Herbert's little negroes. At last they were ready to go to Denver where they found WVilbur in- stalled as Mayor. Such a time as Mr. Cheatem had trying to drag them away, so fast and furiously did they talk of old times! On leaving the office they met Hilma Stephenson who was a. stenographer. Hilma took them to see Margaret McKinley and Mary Maddox, both of whom were married. Mar- garet was wealthy and had built a handsome night school. Mary was a so- ciety nia,tron whose hobby was butterflies. Their memories of YVest were many and happy. Among the boys our party found in Denver were George Bieri who ran a grocery store at Fifth and Galapago, Ralph Hanson, the leading man at the Denham, and William Hamill, the rector of St. Barnabasl Among them it seemed that every event of the four years was recalled. Victoria Thorpe was librarian at the Public Library. She told Kenneth that she got her training at West. John found that Gertrude Lawson had added Davis to her name and had a vocal studio. Cf course, Gertrude vividly remembered the Chinese operetta. They found two more in Denver, Virginia Johnston and Edith ,Mc- Knight. Lilly saw Edith clerking at D and F's and Helen met Virginia going to her settlement work among the Poles. It is needless to say that they were still loyal. t'Look here, Mr. Cheatemf' said John, after the five were assembled, shall we go on? There are still more? t'How do you get that way, J ohn?,' retorted Mr. Cheatem, with a twinkle in his eye as he handed to Kenneth the completed plans for the million dollar high school. The movie ended. I turned and my guide was already leaving. There is one more, I cried. t'Yes, yourself! That you will not be permitted to know. But one thing I may tell you. Search never more in prophetic realms. Therein lies your doom I To this I solemnly agreed. MARJORIE COLLIER.

CRAWFORD MAY CLASS OF 1921 AT THE BAT JUNIORS PROMISE TO BE DARK HORSES NEXT YEAR CLUB HAS FINE BUNCH OF RECRUITS After three years of sturdy work, our Junior team is rounding and blos- soming into rare form. We are not boasting. Ive are simply working and pulling together. Mr. Kcpner is the boss and the players are for him. This club of ours has many worthy semi-pro members. Any team has a. chance of winning a pennant with such veterans as Castillierra, Scheele, Brannan and Harrington. Castillierra has ripened into a real star. Scheele is a promising moundsman. Great things happen when Brannan has the ball. Harrington is getting well tuned up, although a little late about getting into camp. During our first year of training, we were occasionally struck out by such big leaguers as Baker, Hopkins, and Ford. During our second season, one of the opposing pitchers we disliked to bat against was IVedgewood. a veteran 'tspit-ballw artist, whose curves, originated by IVentworth-Smith, developed acute angles which proved very disastrous at times. The third season has been a great success. VVe played a brilliant game in the out-field. proving stars at social hours, parties. athletics and literary societies. Our in-fielders had some difficulty in grabbing the short-circuit t'grounders from the battery of the slab-electricians, Fergus and Aylard. Of course, a few of our team-mates have tried to steal bases. but such basemen as Cowden, Hamilton. Van Landingham, and shortstop Moore, composing an invincible in-field, have caught these unfortunates and put them out. C Our boss says. t'Of course, I am pleased. The league looks pretty good. There's plenty of punch to the team, and they have the proper spirit. They are prompt and regular at practice. They hit the ball hard and their batting average is steadily increasing. As our last season approaches, there remains very little to be said. IVE ARE GOING TO BE THE CHAMPIONS! 7 J on CoN NELLY.

THE STORY OF A FOOL WHO BECAIVIE WISE Simon Nutting. aged fifteen years. aeeepted a position in a Company known as The XVestern Uranium Food Products Uompany of Denver, located on the eorner of Fifth Avenue and Fox Street. Ile was to aet as third assist- ant to the General Manager at wages of ten dollars a day with a promise of a raise if he made good. Of eourse the wages were exorbitant for a boy of fif- teen with only one year's experienee: the money was not all to be paid to him at once however, but to be deposited in his favor to be paid in full if he served three years. Ilis work consisted in earrying packages of produets and systematieally arranging them in their proper plaees, as well as assisting in the laboratory, in testing the produets, It was surprising that Simon continued to receive his pay deposit notiee in spite of the faet that he was often called to the offiee for mistakes and failures. Ile deeided the position was too good to quit unless he was discharged. so he worked more faithfully and paid more heed to the orders of the General Manager. thereby beeoming more efficient. Ile was summoned one day to the offiee and reeeived notiee that he was now to beeome the set-ond assistant to the Manager. the first assistant having left to advance to a higher position in another firm. Ifpromoted-ser-ond assistantfv pondered Simon. 'I'here must be a mistake. I'll risk losing my position. just for the privilege of asking the Manager about my promotion. No, I am not w'orthy. Ile knoeked at the Manager's door and was admitted. That glenial exeeu- tive explained: Our eompany is different from others-we promote not on the basis of effieienry. but growth. You are paid in proportion to the amount of our produvts you eonsumef' X Hut I don't see- NVell. eontinued Manager Kepner, you. the Sophomore elass. have grown so mueh and have developed so far beyond the state of being a 'IVise Fool., that you are ready for promotion to the position Junior, lny set-ond assistant. XVhen you shall have reeeived your diploma two years hem-e. you will be worth ten dollars a day more than you were last year. Ohl I see. answered the now enlightened Simon Nutting.

His sharpshooter scouts made an enviable record in Tennis. His Navy tied for first honors in Football, his dreadnaughts proving all but irresistible. The Basket-ball artillery failed to gain the highest record for marksmanship but deserve much praise for the splendid spirit shown in battles fought. The girls' Basketball Battalions under General Holland carried on a vigorous civil Warfare. For their valor and blood- thirstiness, we may call them the Battalions of Death. The Baseball infantry cannot fail to be victorious in its wonderful aggressive warfare. At the cry of 440:11-ry on Y they will charge over the top and drive back the opposing forces. The Track Aviation has great possibilities. New planes, Zeppelins and pilots have been added to their forces. Patriotism has run higher than ever before during this year's campaign. Many lVest Side Liberty Bonds were bought, placing the Army and Navy on a good financial basis. Enlist- ments poured in and t-here was no recourse to drafting for either financial and moral support or for lighting men. TV. M. XVEISZ.

A number of dreadnauglits. eruisers, de- stroyers. and submarines answered his call. After six weeks of cruising and target practice the nations decided it was time to declare war. The first battle against the Vikings ended with a 20-0 yie- tory for VVest. ive then sailed for southern seas for combat with the Rebels. YVe returned with a Q1-7 score. In a gale and blinding snow-storm we fought the Thunderbolts in an indecisiye battle. Seagulls of bad onien hovered over us as we met the Angels. Our casualties were 14 to their T. The campaign ended by our declaring a truce with East sharing with them first football honors. Flagship lVobido, battleship Clow, destroyer Downer, and submarine Dill were considered as best among the Men-of-Vifar of the city.

MARIE BOLLINGER Think, if you will. what two hundred and seventy-three people in one society can do-especially when that society is Castalian. It is not possible to describe in detail all the programs and wonderful work of this year. The policy has steadily been to give training and oppor- tunity to as many people as possible. In the three plays of the year, 4'Peace Maneuversf' NA Christmas Carol. and 4'Miss Civilization? forty-'three different members have taken part. Aside from the fun of being someone else,'7 everyone loves to be in a play for the comradeship and good times at rehearsals. Twenty jolly Castalianites have appeared in stunts, including uliing of the Cannibal Islands? Santa Clausf, and '4April Fool. Castalian is also justly proud of her musical talent. Eighteen soloists, both vocal and instrumental, besides many members in chorus have entertained us this season. Oratory and debating have engaged the efforts of twelve more. In addi- tion to the contests we appreciated the four speakers of the Armistice Day Program Who so vividly brought back to mind the memories of that great event in our national history. Not counting anyone twice. approximately eighty-five members have taken part in the programs of the year. And everyone loves to Work for Cas- talian. Many have rendered praiseworthy services which have not been known to all, services varying from the composing of rhymes to the joyful pounding of tacks. The buying and making of the green burlap screens for stage scenery we consider a real achievement. lVe have always loved our society because of the fun and opportunities we have had, and also because of the untiring leadership of enthusiastic mem- bers of the faculty. And. as the class of 1920 leaves Castalian to the under- classmen, we sincerely wish for them the joys and benefits which We have re- ceived. ' GERTRUDE LAWSON, '20, Page Fifty-nine PRIZE DEBATE As the result of the competition between the two so- cieties, there was an unusually large attendance at the Prize Debate held on December 5, 1919. The subject of the debate was: t'Resolved that the Philippines should be granted immediate independence. The affirmative, chosen by the VVebster Debating So- ciety, had as its representatives, Kenneth Greenawalt, Gerald Miller, and Helen Castillierra. Harold Scheele, Chester Chartrand, and Marjorie Collier upheld the neg- ative side for the Castalian Literary Society. The debators attempted to prove that for political, social, and moral reasons the Philippines should or should not be given their independence. The arguments pro and con were well chosen and developed in a logical and vig- orous manner. The delivery was excellent in all cases, but the earnestness and conviction with which Helen Castillierra spoke, justly brought the individual prize to her. The debate decision was awarded to Castalian. AN NA MARIE BOLLINGER. Page S Page STXfj'flIIlU DEBATE ARTISTS ORATORICAL CONTEST Friday evening. January 23, 1920, the most talented speakers of the VVebster Debating Society and the Castalian Literary Society engaged in the annual Oratorical Contest. First. a Castalian representative, Chester Chartrand, gave a splendid oration on 'tAmerican Ideals. Gerald Miller, of Webster, then presented very clearly and accurately the facts about 'tThe Mexican Situation. Another lvebster orator, lVilbur VVeisz, delivered with the sincerity of one who has seen actual service, a most convincing oration, t'Americanism. Joe Shevlin, Castalian, spoke briefly but vigorously on t'America's Century. He was followed by Mvron lVilson of Webster, who with equal ability delivered ttlieconstruction: Our Tribute. Two Castalian speakers were next in order: John lY8lSZ, in f'Democracy,'False and True, 'denounced the spread of li0lSll6VlSIllZ Marjorie Collier, in 'tThe VVay of Friendly Hearts,f' spoke most feehngly tin the growth and beauty of the spirit of social service.. The last speaker, kenneth Greenawalt, of VVebster, surpassed .all ln. originality of thought and excellence of delivery. His 0I'HlJ1OI1, dealing with the unequal distribution of wealth and opportunity, was on 'tAmericanism and Justice. The decision of the judges, awarding the gold medal to Kenneth Green- awalt. met the entire approval of the audience. Both societies may well be proud of their representatives in this contest. for the interest, merit, and talent displayed have never been surpassed. HAROLD Scum-:r.E, 'QL THE STEVENS ORATORICAL CONTEST The Stevens Oratorical contest drew a large crowd to North. Side High School on Friday evening, February 28. The chairman, Alva A. Swain, amused the audience by his humorous presentation of the o1'ators. A musical number given by each school not only pleased the bearers, but also greatly encouraged the school representative. The topic of the orations, as select-ed by Mr. Stevens, was: 'tVVhat Constitutes Good American Citizenship? The prize was awarded to James E. Foley from Manual, but our representative, Kenneth Greenawalt, was most excellent in both depth of thought and deliv- ery, and we are as proud of him as if he had won. His speech was directed against profiteering and excessive wealth as a violation of American princi- ples. VVith the excellent training which we are receiving at lVest, we should be able to decorate our school with many more Stevens' prizes, such as the two works of a1't we now have in our auditorium.

Page Sixty-tw llnrf-0 IS URATUI l IC H Y F THE MARY LOUISE WHITE CONTEST ., A NIESSAGE 'ro Tnosn WE LEAVE BEHIND Dear Girls: lVest offers a Ureat many o ortunities but there is none reater for P1 ., 7 you than the annual sight-reading contest, founded long ago by one of our beloved teachers, Miss Mary Louise White, whose name it now bears. It has gained in fame each year, and now the girl that Wins may well be proud. Do yo11 like to read? Do you enjoy an evening around the fireplace? Then you would better enter this contest, for the training received is excellent and the prize is a valuable set of Shakespeare. The last contest was held in our auditorium on Friday, January 30, when the following girls participated: Mildred Thompson, Gladys Swem, La Verne Harrington, Vera Baeder, Mary Coyle, Jean Clarke, Maxine Swem, and Grace Cunningham. This contest was different from those of previous years in that each girl read an entire story instead of a selection from a. long book. As the stories were meant for children, they required a great deal of maternal and sis- terly feeling to be read aright. The long period of suspense which followed after the last girl had read was calmed by the customary musical numbers. Cecil Ellis, whose ability to play is equalled only by her willingness to respond when asked, played a duet with William Casey. Lillie Stein, our girl cornetist, gave a beautiful solo. Stanley Willis, our talented bass singer, rendered a selection from t'Faust, and the Girls' Glee Club also did their part. Even at that it seemed hours before our old friend, Mr. H. B. Smith, finally ap- peared on the stage, and after much joking, presented the prize to Miss Jean Clarke, a representative of the Sophomore class. So, my dear friends, you have something to work for. Just as we t1'ied to make this contest better than last year's, so you should try to make yours better than ours, and let the name of Mary Louise VVhite go down through the ages as an inspiration to all girls.

The primary purpose of the corps is physical training and not the making of soldiers. The cadet is taught obedi- ence to superiors and discipline, important virtues which are essential to success in civil life. Thisiyear two asmokeless smokersl' were held in which cadets were the only participants. These two events clearly showed that in the cadets, West certainly has some fine athletes. A hop is to be given May 14, which p1'om- ises to be most successful, as cadet entertainments always are. A social club has been formed consisting of all the commissioned officers of the school. The members are: Captains Greenawalt, Adams, Hanson, Cordingly, and Eno, First Lieutenants VVade, Horner, and Colemereg Second Lieutenants Gustafson, VValton, and Seldon. Sponsors are elected by the different companies each year. The honor is simply a mark of our esteem and admiration. The duties are social. Miss Josephine Harvey is Major Sponsor. The Chief Sponsors are: Ruth Harvey, Virginia Johnston, La Verne Harrington, Lilly Edquist, and Vera Bryce. The big event of the year to all cadets is the Annual Competition Drill. A banner is given to the best drilled company in the city. Last year Com- pany 17 West finished second. This year VVest should put a company in first place. There are also contests in which the best drilled squad and indi- vidual are chosen. The Cadet Corps has improved greatly in the past year under the able instruction of Captain Hobson, Captain Fowler, Captain Jones, and Lieu- tenant Moylan. CAPTAIN HAROLD F. ENO, '21.

Page Seventy 72 f A rvw P- U2 : 4 'x ,- I V, n P- O 0 0 C The year 1919-1920 has been one of success for the Y. VV. C. A. Our activity began with the ullig Sisterl' movement, through which we endeavored to extend to the entering girls something of the cordial welcoming spirit of VVest. The second-hand book store served two-purposes- helping the students and replenishing the treasury. The meetings which followed the splendid initiation service were full of interest. Few of us will forget the talks of Miss Slack and Miss Goding. VVe did not neglect parties, either. The girls all donned uniforms for the Military Ball, which was fol- lowed by a most hilarious Kid Party. Hikes and roller- skating parties also met with the approval of the mem- bers. At Christmas, under the direction of Miss Baker, we gave Eager Heart, which is an exquisite representation of the Christmas story. This play was such an extraordi- nary success that we hope to give it annually. Following closely on t'Eager Heartll came many en- joyable events, including the Colorado Conference and the Fashion Show. One of the most pleasant memories of this year's work in the Y. W. C. A. will be of the friendly interest and assistance of the faculty, of whom we wish especially to thank Mr. Kepner, Miss Baker, Miss Krumrieg, Miss Holland, and Miss Scott. The Denham party that was so successful has made possible the victorious climax of our Y. W. C. A. year. The proceeds will be used to send about twenty-five dele- gates to the Estes Park Conference for the girls of Colo- rado, VVyoming, and Kansas. This ten days' outing will be full of jolly friendship and inspiration, during which our girls will prove themselves 100 per cent Americans in body, mind, and spirit. MARJORIE COLLIER.

In each Monday night meeting of the Hi Y, though the numbers were few, quality was manifest. No finer social contact was ever felt than that enjoyed by the fellows around the Hi Y table. Songs, yells and speeches encour- aged us to keep pulling away at our end of the rope, and helped us climb out of many a hole in our lessons. Our leader, Mr. Hook, helped us along only as one who has his heart in his work can help. Vocational talks by successful men helped us plan for the future. Every fellow who is for Clean Speech, Clean Life, and Clean Athletics should give his support to the West Deu- ver l-li Y Club. ' FRANCIS WYANT, '20.

Association of lVest Side High has had a most successful year from every standpoint. The splendid co-operation of the parents and teachers has made the work most delightful to all. The membership increased from 50 to 225 active members. The Association held monthly meetings which were well attended. Three night meetings for fathers proved to be very encouraging. Through the eiorts of the Association. lVest has been benefited in many ways. lVe have been made to feel the closeness of the older people to us in all our school and social activities. Foot- ball blankets were procured for our team use, a bass drum for the orchestra, and a Victrola for the entire school. lVest gave 55180.50 to the Armenian fund, which means the lives of three children. They planned a banquet for the Seniors before graduation, and also dinner for the athletic men, to which some of our interested alumni were invited. and which gave new life and enthusiasm to the boys. May 11th was the closing meeting of a very successful year, when the new oliicers were elected. lVe hope that the Association will be as helpful to the students of lVest in the coming year as it has been for us. the Class of 1920.

Dearest Georgie: Today I have been thinking of you and of our old high school days. Among all those good times the Senior Picnic comes first to my mind. I shall never forget how mysterious the teachers were as to the .plans and how the clever invitations didn't enlighten us a bit. Then, don't you remember how, when the time came, the cars were waiting for us and Mr. Hook taught us Tom McDonald just to divert our minds from our destination? Our thoughts turned to Englewood and Littleton, but weren't we glad it was Rocky Mountain Lake Park! Weren't those games we played fun? In one wild race we girls jumped until it was impossible to hop over the pole again. But we almost beat the boys, didn't we? And the jolliest of all was the reckless manner in which the faculty discarded its dignity. Of course you will remember Paddle, Paddle, Who Has the Paddle? Will you ever forget the way Mr. Motherwell used that paddle on the boys? And didn't they, in turn, mistreat Mr. Kepner and Mr. Morris? That was a chance to Htreat 'em rough! Can't you see, even now, that wild centipede race, when the boys straddled the poles and tried to keep step? The shorter ones had to either ride the poles or spill off amid shouts of laughter. The winners of the events proudly displayed their funny little prizes on their coats or dresses and kept them there for a week. Then, oh that lunch! Hot dogs never tasted half so good, and we had pickles and eggs to go with them. Best of all, there was steaming hot coffee. Don't you remember how surprised we were when, on top of all that had come before, the teachers served us ice cream and delicious little cakes? Tired as we were when dusk came, I wonder if we could have been more happy? The girls said it was jolly good fun and the boys said the faculty were sure good sports. Although twenty years have elapsed, the scenes of this picnic are still vivid in my mind, and I love to recall them. Could we wish anything more delightful, Georgie dear, for the Seniors now at West? Affectionately, MILDRED THOMPSON. Page Seventy-six SENIOR PARTY One of the mostsuccessful parties ever given in West Side High was the annual Senior Party, which took place on the evening of November 21, 1919. The halls were artistically decorated with the class colors and the pro- grams in red and blue were very appropriate. The evening was spent in dancing. The cheerful colors, the pretty frocks, and bright lights seemed to spread a spirit of good humor among all. The snappy music furnished by Hollyls Jazz Orchestra made the evening especially enjoyable and it was necessary to open both first and second floors to accommodate the crowd. Cooling ices and dainty wafers were soon served to refresh the dancers. But all too soon the strains of ttHome, Sweet Home were heard. And though the hour was late and the dancers very tired, it was hard to persuaade our 'tlight fantastic toes to adopt the more serious step that would take us away from this scene of pleasure. Even expert criticism declared this party to be the most delightful and best managed ever given in the good old halls of West. HILMA STEPHEN soN, '20. XTI-IE JUNIOR LEAP YEAR PARTY Leap year does not come very often. and the Junior girls realized this when they planned their party for January 16th. On that evening they called for their partners and took them to the school building, as though objects of their amusement for the evening. The girls rose to the occasion, and after filling out the programs. de- manded music of the orchestra. An excellent selection had been made. in- cluding among the new dances an old-fashioned rye waltz falso for the girls' amusement-J . They failed in but 0116 respectg the boys waited in line for refreshments, as usual. lVhen ttgood-night time came. the dancers were most enthusiastic over the program and declared it was 'tgreatf' One budding legal expert sug- gested that a day be added to eagch year, making ninety-nine leap years to a century.

The program was varied and contained something to appeal to everyone. There was a Physical Cul- ture Squad, or Physical Torture, if you like, commanded by Captain Greena- walt, and an Awkward Squad commanded by Lieutenant Wade. The Boys' Glee Club rendered some very appropriate numbers, such as uHow Dry I Amv and t'Hail, Hail, the Gang,s All Here , Bill Casey, the West Denver Pade-rewski, played some selections on the piano. A ukelele duet, a speech to the fathers by Mr. Kepner, several boxing bouts, and a fine wrestling match completed the program. Then the fellows and their dads lined up for the Grand March to the Lunch Room, where coffee, doughnuts and speeches were in order. The coifee and doughnutswere made all the better by the fact that they were served by some of the nicest and prettiest girls in the school. the Sponsors. The speeches, which were the dessert, were delivered by such great waiters as Mr. Kepner, Colonel Hutchingson, Mr. Fergus, and Lieu- tenant Moylan. Everybody voted that the entertainment was a complete triumph for the Cadets, and the dads, who were the guests of honor, went home with the feeling that their sons were not attending such a bad school after all. K. VVADE, '21. Page Eighty-one GIRLS' OPERETTA As there is so much excellent talent in the Girls' Glee Club, Miss Starr has decided to produce 4'The Feast of the Little Lanterns, a Chinese operetta. It will be given at the XVOHl21Il,S Club on May lst, 1920. Marie Bollinger is to portray the principal char- Chan, a clever little maid. Vera general nuisance, Gertrude Lawson governness, and Nora Gallagher the mystery, promise to be stars. A chorus of twenty-four girls will sing and dance in the most acter. Princess liaeder as the as the elderly approved Uhinese fashion. Between acts several solo and group dances under the supervision of Miss Holland will be given. As the girls have obtained the ball room for the even- ing. there will be dancing after the entertainment. MIIADIIED THOMPSON. Page Eighty-two PERSONNEL UHINESE 0l'li JUNIOR-SENIOR PROMENADE. The Annual Junior-Senior Promenade, held on the evening of May 7, 1920, at the Brown Pa.lace Hotel, was by far the most elaborate affair ever given by the students of West. The Patrons and Patronesses, members of the Parent-Teachers' Asso- ciation, distributed the unique programs, which were of black leather with monograms in orange-thus carrying out the school colors. Howard Clhristenbury, President of the Senior Class, led the grand march, which marked the beginning of this long-anticipated event and dis- played to advantage the gay and charming gowns. McElroy's orchestra of several young men making a nation-wide tour, provided the-delightful music for the evening. The orange ice and dainty cakes added a note to the color scheme and proved most refreshing to the dancers. The committees were headed by Kenneth Greenawalt and Crawford May. The members were Mildred Thompson, Gerald Miller, Gladys Swem, Elwood Claughton. La Verne Harrington, Harold Eno, Louise Cosgrove and Carl Gustafson. MARGARET HEARN1-1, '20. CLASS PLAY OF l92O By the time this Annual is out the class play will be only a happy memory, but as it goes to print the play is fast becoming an absorbing? reality. 'tMy Lady's Dress, by Edward Knoblauch, is one of the most excellent of modern dramas. It is a dream-play with wonderful little scenes giving glimpses into the lives of some of the worldls workers who have to do with the material, the trimming, and the making of a woman's gown. The opportunities forhacting are really remarkable and thirty-four of the most talented members of the class will appear in the cast. Though the play contains much subtle humor and is fascinating through- out, it. is more serious than those usually attempted by high schools. In spite of difficulties ill acting and setting We expect to present it in a most credit- able manner. Should any unkind critic be displeased with our performance we can only say that in acting, as in everything else worth while in ilife, not failure but low aim crime? VVe believe that My Lady's Dressl' will be the finest thing in a year, unusual for both number and excellence of events. Page Eighty-four ALUMNI OF F ICERS-I 920 NFZW ION C.

Page Eightyfsix A FACULTY MIX-UP Once upon a time a fellow named Smith entered a Baker shop and asked for some cakes that were Longan Sweet. He said they were Fer Gus and himself, adding, HI vouldn't Bay less don den cents for demf' The Baker said that he Couden give him Moore than eight cents' worth because the Miller hadn't left. him any Hour. Smith then said that the Baker had to give him a Peck of the cakes and put them in Ay lard pail that was hanging on a Hook near them. The Baker then got sore and the two began to fight. The Baker called to his wife. who was weaving in the next room, to come and help him. but she said, t'My Loom is broken and I have to fix it. Smith struck the Baker a blow that made him see Starrs. Just then three Copps-Bartosch, Krumreig, and Rich- ards-entered and Smith had to run and Hyde. He met two of his cronies-Hamilton and Hopkins. They jumped into a nearby' Ford. sped past ttHarvey's Lunch Room, around Mother's well, and on thru the city. The Copps came after them, but they Kep ner tnearb breaking the speed limit and the Copps Couden catch them. The three cronies were wanted for stealing a 'tTub from Miss Van Landingham. If the Copps caught them they would Stringhaiu up to a tree for their crimes. However, they escaped into lVedge WVood, and jumping out of the Ford they lay down in the shade of the trees. Smith was the first to break the silence. t'Great Scott! he Sess, 'tthat was a close call In ' THE END.

SUMMER FRIENDS Many summers the vines have spread Their chains of leaves above my head. And the little gray hawk hangs aloft in the air, And the prairie coyote runs here and there.

Walls that are crumbling shall not long retain me, Bells that have called me, silent soon shall be, These were my friends-these were my close companions, Joyous their service, given faithfully. These were the servants, you and I the masters, They were the Place and Time that marked our ruleg Sweet Friend, I cannot leave you-dwell within me, The happy, living Spirit of Our School. G. E. H. BURNS I've heard mony a wonderful sang, An' rantin' tales mony times, But never they've held my interest lang As the Scotch bard's jolly rhymes. The wee mouse creature which Burns loved so, The louse on the lady's bonnet, The daisy sweet in the woodlands low- Say we, They're na' worth a sonnet. But Burns knew better: yes, Burns -knew best: For in earth and heaven above, All things, both great and small, pos- sessed His wealth of tender love. IRENE MADDOX. Page Ninety-two PERSPIRATIGN Home TORTURE ROOM9 There is a room in West Side High Of many a groan and many a sigh, And many a boy would rather die Than visit Room One when hour seven is nigh. If in the hall you do delay, Or on the stairway you get gay, In this dear room you soon hold sway, A very welcome guest, we'll say. Or, if to school a little late You come from loitering with some mate, You've sealed and signed your sad, sad fate, For in this room you cannot prate. If no excuses can be given, Then to this room you're surely driven, Your heart may be with sadness riven, But you may sit and think of heaven. FRANCES T. MILLER. TXVO LADDIES Of a' the classes in our school, We dearly luve the classes Where we may hae a jolly time An' laugh at a' the lasses. But in this class we do na' laugh At ony clever lassie, For we hae mony a foolish lad In this, our English classie. Ane foolish lad of wham we boast Is acquaint wi' you, I trow, For he is by his classmates ca'd And known to you as Mo. Anither lad we hae in class, A very knave, I vow, Wha's always by his teachers ca'd You naughty Herman Clow. LOUISE BRAUN. Page Ninety-three A BALLAD OF THE FLUNKER The teacher sits at her high desk, Gazing with stony eyes At one who vows he knows his work When well she knows he lies. Vainly he talks and bluffs it out, Trying to be a hero. Grimly she looks and grimly smiles, And gently plants a zero. Our teacher writes a little note And seals it with three blows, And sends it to our boy's fatherg And this is how it goes: Your son a disappointment provesg Too gay a lad is he. I must this letter to you send To tell you of his D. The first two lines that our boy reads Very loud laughs he: As he does read yet on and on The tears do blind his e'e. May this to you a warning be If you are a blufiing lad. Quite soon a merciless teacher's note May rouse the rage in Dad. KATHRYN YVERNET. TO YVEBSTER Our compliments! 'We're glad to see That you enjoyed your long, long naps, And this year woke with energy Which beat us in some lively scraps. We like you well, we must confess, And wish you many a new success. A.

' THE TRAGEDY OF A TRAGEDY Act 1. I enters with Me and Myself. I studies Macbeth with Myself. Macbeth appears fierce to Me. Act 2. Macbeth challenges Me to a test. I bravely accept, and so does Myself and Me. I and Myself arm Me with a sharp pen and paper. Act 3. The fight rages. Macbeth begins by thrusting at I, Me, and Myself with a sharp question. I dodge, but it strikes Me in the head. I moans. Macbeth strikes Me with three more questions Act 4. Macbeth conquers Me and stabs Myself and I with an everlasting zero. Act 5. I dies, and so does Me. Myself Hunks. Page Ninety-flve CLASS WILL Being in our right mind illltl of a sane character and benevolent disposi- tion. and knowing that we are near decease, we do hereby make this our last will and testament. ive do declare null and void all previous wills made by us. Vide appoint Mr. Kcpncr executor of our estate treal and otherwisej. After due and lawful consideration we leave the gavel to the coming Senior Class. We wish to state that this is not a nut-cracker, nor is it to be used to break the fudge made by the chemistry classes. VVe leave to the coming Senior Class the right to give parties and to place on the market if possible a good edition of the '4VVestward Ho. To the Junior Class we will the privilege and right of holding seats on the first floor and becoming an organized group of iVest Side Citizens. To each member of the class we give the license to become a. coat-hook broker. To the Sophomores we leave the right to occupy a seat in the Assembly Ilall, if one can he found. And to the Freshmen we leave that awe-struck, vacant stare that makes teachers tremble and wise men sit in sack cloth and ashes. This ending the list of our class properties, we as individuals wish to bequeath the following: To the whole school we leave our sacred memory. May it not be trailed in the dust Y To the next Trig. class, we leave the ability, provided coal doesn't be- come scarce, to swelter in Room 21. The reference library with its many delightful books, such as the t4En- cyclopedia Brittanicaf' and Bullfinch's '4Age of Fablef, we leave to the faculty. To Mrs. Miller we leave a new volume of books entitled, '4My Reasons for Tardiness and Absence. by Herman Venus Clow. This will be a nicely indexed, leather-bound volume containing some one million, five hundred thou- sand reasons. To tl1e next Animal Board we leave all the toil. midnight oil, and soiled note books. Several tables in the lunch room are left to the strongest and most courag- eous of the boys. Mental. moral, and physical persuasion should be used in case the girls get there first. Billy Sunday Miller leaves his second-hand sawdust trail to Harold Eno. John lVeisz's composite and entertaining formulas are left to Mr. Fergus, and are to be used by him at odd times when he wishes to dispel ennui in the chemistry class. Herbert Lomas's great discoveries on the subject of producing oil from oil shale are also left to Mr. Fergus. Charles Hage1'ty's experiment with the reduction of the H. C. of L. is left to any senior or sen- iors who wish to apply for it. This does not mean the '4High Cost of Living, but the High Cost of Loving. Mr. Motherwell shall be given an annual pass to the golf links of Colorado Springs and a special train will be chartered for him as often as he desires. Page Ninety-six His monthly allowance of one golf ball, given by the Junior Class, shall be continued. ' Mr. Morris's name shall be placed in 44VVho's lVho so that his reputation as the greatest football coach ever known shall never die. To Miss Harvey will be donated twelve indestructible waste-paper baskets, the bottoms of which are not removable. A taxi shall be hired by the Junior Class for Mrs. Moore's personal use, whenever Social Hour is held at the Neighborhood House. The French Class shall be given its choice of rooms hereafter, so that the boys will not be humiliated by seeing Miss Copps cold-heartedly lock the ice-box each day. In so much as the seventh hour has become loathsome to us, we adj ure the faculty that it shall be struck from the teacher's hand book. Kenneth Greenawalt leaves his fiery speech, and the next Stevens' Prize to the school. Charles Ramus bequeaths his exalted position of cartoonist on the VVest Denveritew to Robert Stanton with the best Wishes for his success. Mary Rogers leaves the pleasant position of hall duty sixth hour to any Junior who likes to run on errands. To any Junior or Senior who doubts what Shakespeare said about the ucourse of true love, Mildred Jackson leaves her dearly beloved t'Vergil. lvalter Judge. Esq., leaves his leaky fountain pen to Charles Kitner. , On Luther Titley, the flashing young beauty of the Stone Age. who re- sides in the flourishing town of Barnum, we bestow, the distinguished title of 'tThe Barnum Bum? lVe give the Sopliomores the privilege of annoying said gentleman. . Ralph Hanson leaves his drag with Mr. Motherwell to any new Senior who can qualify for it. The qualifications necessary are that he be susceptible to kidding and have a lazy disposition. VVe hope the person who qualifies for the shecpl1erder's position will give his fellow stockmen as hearty a welcome as Maurice Dill did, during the recent stock show. Hereafter, the Cadets shall have a special room wherein they shall hold all of their uSmoke-less Sinokersfl Virginia Johnston, Lilly Edquist. and Ruth Harvey bequeath their places as Chief Sponsors of the Cadets to any of the Senior or Junior girls who can rightfully hold them. Ruth Harvey bequeaths her position as an able assistant of the secretary to Margaret Casey. Ma1'ie Bollinger bequeaths her position as president of the Y. VV. C. A. along with all its joys and cares to Vera Baeder. Everything that was left to us by the class of 't19. we leave untouched to the class of SQL Romnrr GRAEBER.
