A ln the days ot old, when such things as mon- key dinners and the like were unknown, people were infinitely more healthy than at the present time. Although they used the common herbs and roots quite extensively, the ancients did not dream of such preparations as are now in use under the name of 'Cpatcnt medicineft This pre- dominance of healthy people may be ascribed almost wholly to their practice of what is now termed the simple lifef' A minor cause was the great brutality of war, when the survival X 'f'Prize Essay. The W. C. T U. of Kansas City awarded to Mr. Walter Wolf ten dollars in gold as a prize tor the best Tem- perance essay. ot the fittestv was literally interpreted. The Spartans went even so far, in their desire for a universally healthy nation, as to destroy by eX- posure on mountain-sides all intants unhealthy at birth. This, of course, was the height ot cru- elty and folly. It seems, however, that although the health of present generations is not what the people ot former days enjoyed, there is a steady movement in the right direction. This movement hasman- ifested itself in the past decade by a vast num- ber of physical culture clubs, gymnasiums in schools, etc. Some of these organizations are de-- voted to a special game, as baseball or tennis. The followers ot any particular pastime claim for it advantages which they concede to no others. Whatever the individual merits of each sport may beg certain it is that all pastimes are bene- ficial, it not carried to extremes. Not only do they give pleasure, but they leave with the par- ticipant better physical and mental stamina. Then, too, they are to be valued for the sense ot fairness which they impart to a person. There is on the ball-field an unwritten' code of honor, which metes out to each player his just deserts, which applauds a good play and derides a poor one. A boy who 'fplays fairt' will generally carry this sense of justice to his other occupations. It is now a recognized fact that without a sound body a sound mind is the exception rather than the rule. But to attain the sound body, a person should make an early start. Perhaps the best way to begin telling what a boy should do to gain health is to tell what he should not do to destroy it. Anything that has a stunting ef- fect, physical or mental, should be condemned in no uncertain terms. One of these retarding agents in a boy's growth is the use of tobacco. Enough has been written on this subject by doc- tors, scientists, and amen who known to till vol- umes. Certain it is that the physical growth is retarded, while that the mental growth is like- wise made slower is the statement ot thousands ot physicians. Thus in no way is the use of tobacco conducive to good results. One boy may smoke a dozen cigarettes a day, with no lov the ire but tio: die wa yes use sul bv U d ri Wh it the str eel OP en Hi an th a n an is pl re th dll to h Q P. in 'th nz lii ta ff.

We assume that the first boy experiences no apparent bad' effects, but who can say that in later life a reac- tion will not come? We read of a man who died of the effects of a sand-bag blow which was received on the back of his head twenty years previously. Why should not the excessive use of tobacco have the same slow but certain re- sults? There are other habits which are caused by smoking, as, for instance, the use of strong drink. We have yet to hear of a strong smoker who did not drink to some extent. The smoke, it is shown, irritates the delicate membranes of the mouth and throat, causing a craving for strong drink. After the stunting or retarding agents have been removed, the growth of a boy is given an opportunity to assert itself. The boy should be encouraged in all vigorous ga.mes and sports. He should be given good but not sumptuous food, and nice but not extravagant clothing. He is thus prepared for mental labor of a more natural and active kind. The necessity of good literature and of a normal educational and moral training is apparent.. The boy should be taught that sim- plicity in everything is the keynote of the best results. This is shown by the tendency all over the world to return to the simple life of our ancestors. There are, then, several important requisites to the training of any person. First, for physical health all stunting agents are to be avoided. Plenty of exercise, plain food and simple cloth- ing are of the utmost importance. Second, for the mental and moral training, a good education, natural environment, and an abundance of good literature are necessary. These physical and men- tal attributes constitute, to our mind, the prime ffessentials to a sound mind in a sound body? W.xL'rER Worn. 'O5. THE PALMS. The palms shall wave around our way And joy shall bring, on this, our festal day. 1. Walter Wolf.-This magnificent palm seems to show that knowledge along all lines will be the particular acquisition of the owner 5 but to counteract this intense seriousness is developing a strong sporting line-a tendency toward red neckties, ornamented by a scintillating crystal of enormous size. Age, it is hoped, will serve to 'unite these divergent characteristics, and he will live to be an honor to old Westport High. N. B.-It will be very' old then. 2. Fern Wittman.-Here is modesty com- bined with much sincerity. A nature which, if it were what it would wish to be, would fill an ideal pattern. But the ideality interferes with common sense. The line of the head is vague and indistinct, showing that while searching for far-off things, the duties that lie nearest escape the doing. 3. Mabel Eggleston.-Strong will, with per- sistent tenacity of purpose. Poetical, artistic, and harmonious traits are at the bottom of an undertaking, while mystery seems to be at the end. Neat in dr-ess, devoted to friends 5 liable to disappointment in affection. 4. Katie Bell.-Will be a successful essay- ist and preacheress. Enjoys responsibility, but does not care to have it divided. After careful study of this hand, we have discovered that when it was put down its owner evidently thought that 'a mark was made upon the world. All the essen- tials of success are found herein. 5. Sidney Hodge.--No plums will fall into this hand, great muscular effort will have to be used to pluck them from the tree. Get to work, Sidney. Nevertheless, with that face and figure, there is a chance that you may some day stand opposite a lady actress. You are also gifted with a successful recklessncss. 3Hiff'e:-g,?52a f- Y fizljgf' gf iQQijfjfi ' . 1---3 9 V I V Y V F D 'Y C F' 1?-iffi 4?Z?'?t?e!1'e':'ff4'?W'Fi -1 f'1'f'-':fS'f-f:'1'1- :'i+S-r-:21f:2s-'-':2-- . 1 v -- . .

Cam-eola Burns.-Intensely worldly. Very fond of singing. Idealistic. It. is said that moths will gather round flames to get Burns, and there will be many moths that will circle around the adorable Cameola. Capture one with deli- cately singed wings, and your future is secure. 7. David Childs.-This palm is broad. It will hold much and little will escape its grasp. You get a great deal out of people, but give lit- tle in return. Your laugh ought to be infec- tious. You have a discriminating mind. Your chief aim is to provide amply for yourself. Your intellect is shrewd, searching, and commercial. You are somewhat sensitive and fond of names containing the letters Nu and LLP, 8. Melvin O'Reilly.-This hand belongs to one who is a little afraid to step out boldly. His ruling characteristic is that someone will have to stand behind him and give him a push over a hard place. He is highly imaginative, espe- cially upon astronomical subjects. Gay and pleas- ure-loving, but that is not the only kind of loving. l 9. Mary Abercrombie.-Here is developed a marked tendency toward the artistic and beauti- ful things of life, which explains, no doubt, your fondness for showy things and your love of dis- play and ornament. Your thumb shows that you are very self-willed, and, right or wrong, of great determination. This being the case, you would make a great hit as Carrie N ationis successor. You are a prize-winner, and, in spite of a few freckles, have an attractive personality. 10. Mabel Rams.-This hand shows a strongly developed abutting-in line. You have a great liking for small boys, but they ,re afraid of you. The matrimoniai line is very, very faint- ly developed. According to the stars, you will probably become a lady book-agent. But if you never go out on a dark night, this may be averted. 11. Inez Marens.-A strong luck line ex- plains perhaps the good fortune which this young lady has so far enjoyed, she is of an impulsive, winning nature, and will have great attractions 'for the opposite sex 5 in fact, there will be mar- ryin's before she is twenty-seven. 12. Ada Jones.-Shows a very loving dis- position, rather fault-finding at times. Will love a tall, dark man, her junior by some years. She. is strong of character and will divide the rule of the household about -equally with her husband. fBoth will probably live long and hap-py lives. 13. Lenoir Robertson.-This nature is of the clinging vine variety. It will, so to speak, cling as long as anything or anyone will let it cling. It has a tender heart, and the usual head accompaniment of a tender heart. There will be times when it will be driven to despair by refus- als of its proposals, but it will always recover promptly. Its motto is Try, try again? It always possesses a sweet and seductive voice, which it uses upon every possible occasion, and it can always be counted upon to put. up a 'fspielj' where it will do the most good. 14. Helen Lynn.-This is a strong, psychic hand, and denotes that it will take Payne's to obtain the price of a watch. lt is sentimental, with a strong inclination to Hirtation. The tips of the fingers show decided. lines, that closely re- semble numerous broken hearts. 15. Nellie Beery.-We find from this hand that she will make a good wife and guardian of a home, and her Child's comfort. The go-verning line is the line of the head, which no doubt ac- counts for the appearance of her head several seconds before the rest of her appears. The nat- ural attractiveness of this person might suggest instability or fickleness. But let it go at that. 16. Paul Parker.-This gentleman's talents seem to lie entirely along religious lines. He will make an eminently successful evangelist, and will tour the country. It is hoped he may even con- vert some of his hardened fellow'-Seniors. As he is a distinguished vocalist, there will be no excuse for his taking a pretty singer with him. 17. Ralph Smith.--Here are shown the lines of greatness and success. He will have many opportunities which,iif improved, his name will shine forth in the halls of fame. His only handi- cap is his name. There is only one man by this name who ever attained greatness, and his pre- tfix was John. Therefore take notice and change the name. ,-afgn.: -1, w--.

K 1.. i .. , . . 19 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 18. William Peet.-You have a roving spir- it which will finally lead you to the Land of Promise, better known as Kansas. You have a good, honest paw, well adapted for fighting. However, we would not advise indulgence in this pastime, as, owing to the solidity of your figure, when you do come down, you will come down hard. There is much affection bottled up for you in the future, but donft pull the cork too early. ' 19. Mary R-eintjes.-This hand shows that you are very pessimistic, and inclined to depres- sion. Your life will be made up of many disap- pointmetnts, the greatest of which will be- in your heart affairs 5 but if you follow the line of least resistance, all will turn out fairly well for you. 'Your lifel-work will probably consist of plying 'a small sliver of steel, punctured at one end, and carrying a cotton or silken thread, for the lines of your hand show marked ability and original- ity in designing. ' 20. Harry Lambert. - Great celerity in fmovement. Really remarkable swiftness. You undoubtedly will enter a track team, and gain. great distinction in being the only person who can beat his shadow for three blocks in succes- sion. The lines up and down the forefinger de- note a kinship to the Ram family. You will strike a balance, always in your own favor. Sus- picions are entertained that you smoke. 21. Harold Folk.- There's nothing in a namef' Otherwise Folk would not be so fond of graft. He will become immensely wealthy in a. business which consists of allowing his friends fthe use of his superfluous dollars, in return for which he expects a materialistic recompense. Re- member the fortune-tellers then, Harold. They aren't afraid of tainted wealthf' 22. Alberta Cooke.- Duty, not beauty, is written all over this hand. You will become an exponent of higher education, president of four- teen clubs and a prominent member of fifty- seven varieties of sororities. In this capacity you will affect a great reform among the faculty of Westport High School. 23. Arthur Jones.-The strong markings upon this hand indicate that this is indeed a nice boy! His favorite piece of literature is 'iParadise Lostf, Little boy, take care lest some envious maiden kidnap thee. Take to agricult- ure and the Deere plow-almost any dear will do. 24. Boon Gregg.-A careful inspection of this claw reveals the astonishing fact that Boon will never be President. His is a knotty, philo- sophic hand. Boon will be the great reasoner of the century. Socrates. Plato, and Aristotle will take a back seat' when Gregg appears. 1 25. Gladys Rose.-A roseate future shines upon Miss Rose. A slight tendency, not exactly in accord with the cherry-tree story, will help her along materially towards success. Author will be her occupation till some one of the hordes of suitors is lucky enough to procure her hand. 26. Robert Ormsby.-Robert, you have a fault which ought to be corrected. You are a 'little too anxious to answer every question asked in all your class-rooms. With this fault elimi- nated, no other shadow lies across your brilliant and versatile career. ' 27. Gertrude Smith.-A gentle but spas- modic nature. The luck line is hugely developed. It has carried you through, even to t.he point of lgraduation, but upon the receipt of your diploma it will immediately desert you. We are sorry to say, Gertrude, you will have to get to work and struggle with fate, all unaided, for the rest of your life. 28. Charles Mount.-The strongly marked lines denote a strong individuality. The little iinger shows a decided tende-ncy to prevarication and equivocation. The line of sun running into the line of heart indicates that he will pursue his love-affairs to the detriment of his business, but he will be left a legacy which will save him from want. As the will is to be contested, he will have to pawn his medal from the Daughters of the 'Revolution, to hire a lawyer. Future vocation, stenographer to Sultana of Borneo. 29.

Sad fate! tfor the children a.lso.j Judging from observation, no fortune accompanies this profes- sional career. 31. Mabel Merrick.-If you were not pre- vented, on account of being a girl, you would probably become a deacon. You will never be bothered by the servant question, as you will do your own work. Not always will you wear silks and satins. You will attract many admir- ers by the magic of your music. You will dwell in pe-ace and contentment on a little farm, with your first and only love. 32. Laura Patten.-Palm shows a love of adventure which will finally land Laura in Paris as a modiste and designer of creations She will travel to Turkey and there obtain steady employment as a fez- and turban-maker. She will attain a green old age, and will live until she dies. 33. Mabel Palm.-Miss Palm's palm points to a palmy future.. She will fancy all sorts of ailments, but they will be as' shadowy as the shad- ows cast by then broad leaves of the palm. Of the palms possessed by Miss Palm, one will be lost on the journey of life. However, she will not regret the loss. 34. Francis Peterson.-Born under the sign of Virgo, and is thus a warm, impulsive, gushing, exuberant, magnetic personality, and in every way disposed to impart knowledge. Will give to the world a new and magnificent system of philosophy. 35. Mabel Storr.-The line of the heart shows capability for deep affection and unswerv- ing devotion. The owner is rather timid and is very punctual in keeping all engagements. The fourth finger shows artistic development and love of pretty things, but belongs to much more of a wisher than a doer. Will live in a Storr house until two figures exactly alike appear in her age. 7 36. Jessie Lonsbery.-An impression seems to have been gained that this hand would be snatched away, if pressed too hard, but that is a mistake. The natural amiability evidenced in the mount of the moon together with the depres- sion in the plain of Mars, all go to prove that, .though there may be girlish reluctance in giving the affirmative particle, the all-import.ant ques- tion will not be turned down with NOP, ' 37. Le Roy Bennett.-You are destined for a life of adventure 5 probably a detective, as your mind drifts to logic, and you have great reason- ing faculties. You will die with your boots on. You will also write one of the leading books of the century, f'Stories of a Stealthy Sleuthf' 38. Flora Hood.-This hand belongs to a dear little girl who thinks she has all the trou- bles in the world, but there are' a few left for other people. The thumb indicates much intui- tion, and thus she will win many friends on her journey through life. Her virtues are not hood- ed and will in the end bring their own reward. ' 39. Leona Vaught.-This palm shows a ten- dency to bashfulness which will make you a quiet, peaceable neighbor and a true friend in need. You will be a gre-at traveler and a lover of Nature. In middle life you will be wooed and won by a tall, fair man wearing glasses and a plug hat. You will be very happy and live far past the threescore and ten. F 40. Harold Waltner.-This little darling was born on February 14. He is of mild and aiectionate disposition. Though he early in life fell over the spelling-book, he will be able to let some girl know that he wants to be her valentine. 41. Mabel Carr.-You are a great reader, particularly of novels of the better kind. You will be what is popularly known as a 'fhome ibody, preferring to remain by your fireside rat.her than to visit extensively. However, you will have many suitors at your own home, who will make you good offers. You will not accept any until a tall, dark man conquers your stub- born heart.

Sybil Sloan sat on the steps of the broad veranda in front of her home, looking very dainty in a pale pink dress of some sheer mate- rial. The rose, which she lwirlcd round in her fingers, so exactly matched her gown and the color in her cheeks that altogether she presented a very pleasant picture to J ack Pemberton as he came up the walk towards her. There is no denying the becomingness of all that pink, Sybil-no, don't get me a chair, I ,ll sit here on the' steps, suiting the action to the word. I just stopped in for a moment to ask what time I shall call for you to go with me to-morrow to the club dance 'PU . f'You're too late, Jack. Tom was over last night, and as you hadn't asked me, I felt at lib- erty to go with anyone I wished. So when he asked me, I accepted his invitationf' KWhy, Sybil Sloan, I think that was a very unfair way to treat a fellow. You knew I in- tended to ask you. I call it unpardonablej' protested Jack. Sybil saw that Jack was getting angry, and she usually knew how to deal with him when his temper was about to get the better of him. But to-night she, too, was angry. So she tossed her head and said, with a most complacent air: 4'Well, I 'in sure I dontt see how I was to know you were going to ask me, when you didnft say a word about it till now-the night before the dance. Iim no mind-reader, and of course, rather than stay at homer I told Tom I'd go with him. Anyway, I donpt see why you expect me to go everywhere- with you. I'm going to be partial to no one. I should think, if you intended to cut me in this fashion, you could at least have chosen someone other than Tom Holmes to accompany youjp said Jack, hotly. . He has always treated me nicelyf' Sybil answered, and by this time the rose in her hand had lost nearly all its petals. CfYour idea and mine are quite different with regard toftreating people nicely, judging by the way you have just treated me. I think it 's totally unpardonable, repeated J ack. During this speech Sybil had risen. D0n't pardon it, for all I care,D she said, and. then deliberately turned and walked into the house. On his way home Jack tried to remember whether or not Sybiljs vo-ice had sounded at all relenting in her parting words. By the time he reached home he fully believed it had. He also concluded that he was more to blame than she in this, their first quarrel, and so he began immediately to plan some way to right himself with her. He wanted to go to the dance, but knew he could not enjoy himself if he were denied the pleasure of being with Sybil for at least part of the evening. In this turmoil of thoughts, J ack saw Ned Beamer going by, and called to him, Come in a minute, Ned. I 'm in a pickle, and I 'd like to have you help me out. Sure, old boyg anything you want, just name it, said Ned, in his usual good-hearted way. Jack was soon telling him all his troubles, and it didn't take Ned long to see a way to the shore. I pll tell you what, you come with me, and we will stag it to-morrow night. Let me see-I ,ll get a dance with Sybil, and then tell you just where to stand in the hall. As we swing by you, I 'll have her programme in my hand, and will drop it in front of you. Of course you 'll make a dive for it, and as soon as possible you go in search of the owner of the programme and-you know the rest. I think that will work, all right. '4By Jovel I believe it will, too, said Jack, whose face began to brighten. No need to hurry off, Ned. On your way down town? All right, Ijll see you to-morrow night. Thanks for your trouble. So long. A On the night of the dance, Jack arrived rather late, and found that Ned had his pro- gramme filled, and that the second dance after ,- .....,.......-....,..- . .,....,.-,pg-e-1-1-I-r---gee .

Jack put in all his time till then engaging a few after- intermission dances. When the orchestra began playing the f'Dolly Vaiden waltz, Jack knew this was where he was to score. Soon hc saw Ned and Sybil com- ing toward him, swinging slowly up the hall. Sybil was all in white, with huge red roses at her belt, and Jack thought he had never seen her look so beautiful. As she and Ned passed, Sybil caught Jack's -eye and gave him one of her sweetest smiles, which was far more than Jack expected, or thought he deserved. His heart was beating so wildly he almost forgot to capture the programme, which Ned dropped with seeming carelessness. Jack waited until Ned had left Sybil, and then approached her. 'fSybil, I believe you dropped your pro- gramme as you passed me. Is this it ?'J Oh, yes, thank you, I'm glad you found it, said Sybil, without the least- restraint in her voice, and Jack was reassured. MI hope you have forgotten my rash words of yesterday evening, Sybilf' As she didnpt deny, he continued: If you have, prove it by giving me the next dance, which I see is not taken, and the next-it, toof' said -Iack, eagerly glancing over her programme. Yes, you may have it,7' said Sybil. Them, you meanfp replied J ack, boldly, to which Sybil nodded her head. i At the first strains of the music they were off. 4'Do you know, Jack-I must confess some- thing-I was so afraid you wouldntt come to me to-night, and I knew you were: too proud to make any first advances after the way I treated you last night, so when Ned dropped my pro- gramme in front of you, I knew it was done too cleverly to be. wholly an accident. I deter'- mined to see how the little farce- came out. That 'Is why I saved these two dances for you, said Sybil, glancing shyly at Jack. Well, who would have thought that you, Sybil, would even have dreamed of our plot? You, who only last night told me you fwere no mind-reader,7 U said Jack, taking in his own big one the little hand which rested lightly on his shoulder. As Jack and Sybil passed Ned in the whirl- ing crowd, Ned thought to himself that if he made a life-work of patching up lovers' quar- rels, he would surely make a fortune. Gnxnxs Rosn, '05. - Much excitement has been created in Lon- don by the discovery of a new material in the world of photography, called upliotolinolf' It is composed of linen and permeated with the iphotograph, thus producing a high translucency. The result is many picturesque effects. One picture when colored and viewed by reflected iight shows great similarity to oil paintings. An advantage of this process is the indestructi- oility of the picture, it is also waterproof and do-es not fade in sunlight. By the aid of this process much greater enlargements may be made than formerly. As the picture is trans- parent, its uses are extensive, especially for scen- ery and lamp-shades. tThough the process of making the picture is now a secret, it is to be hoped that the world may soon enjoy the ben- etits of the invention.j - Experiments have been recently made in Bavaria in the preparation of artificial cotton. Although the trials have been conducted only in the laboratory, there is no doubt that the process can be enlarged upon. Since the arti- ficial cotton can be produced at a very low expense, it may in time displace the natural product. A coronet of modern shape, but three thou- sand years old, has been discovered in the Etrus- can graveyard of Tarquinia. Many graves have bien opened and the brcastplates and such 'things which they contained prove that Etrus- can civilization was far in advance of the Roman. . f K -- - -s .. - .f. . - -.-.1 . .- 1-,warns-.s N .- nf.-H f... .,.-.-.s...-.v,.-, .--swsa.-W..--is-L.-I ., S-- ..fs-...s-s-H. ..,.:,: -..

About twelve o'clock on Friday, May the fifth, nearly fifty pupils of the Westport High 'School could be seen scurrying from all direc- tions towards the Union depot, carrying suit- cases, boxes of lunch, and canes and colors. At the station the crowd was great, and Westport, Manual, and Central yells deafened the ears of the bystanders who had come' to see the nine carloads of excursionists leave for Columbia. They were to be the guests of the university, which has introduced a new feature, High School Day. Though the Westport car was not hung with bunting, W ostport, as usual, was in the lead, for the engineer refused to wear any other colors, and not only adorned himself, but hung the blue and yellow from the highest point of his engine. About half-past two in the afternoon, sun- dry boxes of lunch and candy were opened, the more thoughful ones dividing with those who, in the lmrry of departure, had forgotten to bring anything. About this time the boys sud- denly disappeared, and, looking out the window, we girls found ourselves stopped in front of a lit.tle station. The boys welre running pell-mell towardila lunch-room a block away, with that marvelous rapidity which betokens work in the gymnasium and on the track-team. In less than two minutes the bell began to ring, and if the boys ran fast before, they.. certainly broke all records now in returning to the train. Beef and mustard sandwiches, slices of ham ,between stale buns, soggy pies, and sacks of candy which we knew were at least two years old were: dis- patched without regard to the possible eixigen- cies of the future. An hour or two later we stopped at Moberly, and as we stayed there fif- teen minutes to await the regular train, every- body had time to refresh themselves by saunter- ting up and down the platform, and getting more lunch. When we finally pulled into Columbia about eight oiclock ini the evening, there was much hustle and bustle in the eager, dirty, and tired but happy crowd. The little station was swarming with college students who had come to welcome us, and the Kansas City Club was much in evidence. Everybody tried to give the college yells, but most of them had shouted themselves hoarse before five oncloek. Seeing a number of boys who had formed a chain, we girls pressed in after them, and in some unconscious way reached Academic Hall. It would be hard to forget that first View of the campus.. We entered by a broad gravel path, shaded by wide-spreading trees. This walk branched into two stone walks at The Co-l- umns, six immense old relics of the: buildings which burned years ago. These colunms, cov- ered with ivy, are greatly reverenced by the stu- dents, and are: more highly honored than any- thing else about the university. Bodies of Aca- demics and Farmers,t' a.s the agricultural stu- dents are called, charged across the wide green square, yelling at the top of their voices. The whole scene was lighted by the brilliant glow that streamed from the open doors of the great hall. ' Then the girls followed their ,teachers into the Auditorium, where each girl 'was called and given a place of entertainment. Then we passed out.. Through a pouring rain I went to the home of one of the professors, a delightful place, with yet more delightful inmates. But I after- ward learned that my good-fortune was no greater than that of the other girls. Our hostess welcomed us most cordially and too-k us to a dainty little room, where she helped us dress for the dance. When we were ready, college friends had arrived, and after a hasty dinnefr we walked under a now clear sky to Academic Hall. There wel saw a number of old friends: Mr. Ankeny, our former drawing teacher 5 Miss Dobbin, the mathematics teacher of other days, and a. host of Westport graduates, Clifford Smith, George Underwood, Audrey Cocke, and others. Even these sources of attraction could not hold when we heard the: excellent music wafted up from the second door, and two by two the dancers glided over the smooth mosaics of the second and third stories.

And to thosef who wearied of dancing, the cool, palm-hidden corner where ices were served, and the roomy, moonlit portico offered especial inducements. -The next morning we rose early, and, look- ing over the quaint little city, strolled toward the college buildings. They are arranged in a quadrangle, one side of which is filled by f'The Columnsf' and just opposite them is Academic Hall. On the other sides range- the Engineer- ing Buildings, the Law Library, and Zoological Hall. Bead Hall, the Girls' Dormitory, and the Agricultural Building are on another street, while the Observatory and Medical Laboratory stand apart. The latter is one of the most in- teresting places, although so grewsomef that I prefer not to tell the experiences through which I passed behind its walls. Then came the baseball game, lunch, and then the track-meet, after which the crowd sep- arated to ,gain rest and refreshment for the evening's enjoyments, and the long night jour- ney ho-meg Dinner over, all repaired to the Auditorium in Academic Hall, where a most entertaining programme was given by the Universit.y Glee Club, ending with a musical comedy in which the characters wore the Kansas City Manual and the St. Louis High School colors. Then a mad race for grips, a thoughtful walk to the depot, a regretful sigh for the past pleasures, a chorus of good-byes and thanks, a groan from the engine, a parting yell, and the train pulled out for home. HARRIETTE DORN, '05, Among other things added to the Biology Laboratory this year is a splendid new aqua- rium. The interest it arouses and the mysteries it reveals keep a constant set of spectators about it each intermission. This is but one of the many improvements already planned for this department. STUDY HALL ENTERTAIN- MENTS. Owing to the crowded condition of the school at large, but few entertainments co-uld be given in t.he Study Hall, -but those that were heard, with great inconvenience to the pupils, were very clever and interesting-only another proof that it is Hqualityv and not quantity that counts. As we glance over the lists of distin- guished persons who have addressed us the past year we find the school had the rather unus- ual dist.inction of an address by Mrs. A. E. Amphlett, Oxford, England. With an individ- ual simplicity, Mrs. Amphlett told of the uni- versity life in that grand old town. Not the least interesting was Mrs. Amphlett's own per- sonality. Dr. A. C. Abbott, Dr. L. S. Rowe, and Mr. C. A. Young, ofl Kansas. City, all grad- uates of the University of Pennsylvania, gave an hourps programme full of inspiration, Then we had Dr. Henry Churchill King, president of Oberlin College, Dr. Woodrow Wilson, of Princeton, and Judge O. H. Dean, representing Dr. James B. Angell, president of Michigan University, who was too indisposed to be able to come himself. Every pupil in the school must have fully appreciated the remarks made by these gentlemen-representative American mein-not only in their own field of education, but in the life of the nation. Of the home talent, Dr. James'M.i Green- woodfs straightforward talk on: the subject, Are You Headed Bight ?'J was of inestimablie value. Intersperscd through these lectures of a more serious nature stand out prominently the pro- grammes given by tho Dillenbeek School of Ora- tory, under the direction of Miss Bainbridge, the delightful musical numbers contributed by Mr. F. V. Steele and Professor Springer, and last, but not least, the charming readings by our own Professor Metcalf. What became of the water-bucket on the Botanv picnic? Perhaps Mr, Hohman can explain.

We hope that our hosts inay receives full returns for their kindness, in a inuch increased attendance next year. The Missouri Statc University has shown a mi-iced interest in the Work doing by the high schools. This has shown itself in the visits inade at different tinies by nienibers of the lilac- ulty: Dr. Loeb, of the Departinent. of History, Dr. Hill, of the Teachers' College, Dr. Merrian, assistant, Dr. Hedrick, of the Mathematics, and Mr. McLean, the teain coach, have all spent some tinie with us in listening to classes and looking over the building. We could have had the pleasure of addresses froin these gentlenien yveire it not for the crowded condition of the Study Hall. Although ive have alxvays felt deeply indebt- ed to all nienibers of the Board of Education, yet we feel that thanks are especially due to Hon. Gardiner Lathrop, who has left Kansas City to reside in Clhica go. We are aware that in losing hini we have lost ai true friend. Mr. Tiathrop has always shoyvn a local interest .in Westport High because, perhaps, hc lived in this part of the city for a, nuniber of years, he knew this school as the high school of the old toyvn of Westport, and it was he who presented the diplonias to the class first graduating froin the school after West-port was incorporated in Kan- sas City. We owe niany of our little conven- iences, which were possible through a careful knowledge of our needs, to his influence.

But, as in every growing and progressive community, the demand soon exceeds the supply, it was no cause for surprise that a majority of those most inter- ested should meet together and formulate a, re- quest that a splendid and worthy high school should be located in the best rrsident portion of the city upon thc present site of Westport ings. The University of Pennsylvania published in its la.st issue of the Alumni Register a quota- tion from Dr. William W. Smith, chancellor of the Randolph-Macon System of Colleges, which has especial purport for high-school pupils. The young Woman or young man just graduating from school finds himself suddenly confronted with the problem of Whether he shall continue his education or shall start into active life. Much may be said regarding the advisability of either course. Dr. Smith settles the question of the value of higher education in the statistics cited. To quote: That a boy with only a common-school edu- cation had, in round numbers, 1 chance in 9,000 That a high-school training increased this chance nearly 22 times. That college education added gave a young ma.n about 10 times the chance of a high-school boy, and 200 times the chance of the boy whose training stopped with the common school? There seems to he a growing tendency on the part of high-school periodicals to adopt the attitude of critic and censor toward each other. ln fact, the TTIEKALD has recently been called to account for failing to fall into line, and it takes this opportunity to explain its position in the matter. With but five years of publication to its credit, the HERALD hardly assumes itself com- petent to pass judgment on all similar efforts, but even that limited experience is sufficient to develop a thorough appreciation of the time and labor involved in bringing out each issue of a creditable school paper. The H.I+ll!,XLD regards its exchanges as so many welcome guests, and would as soon think of suggesting a change of dress or an adjustment of subject-matter to them, as to suppose it the privilege of a hostess to disapprove of the eos- tume-s of her invited friends or to publicly re- quest of them a change in deportmefnt. l The TTERALD will continue to show its appre- ciation of its contemporaries by taking from them all the available good things and present- ing 'them to its readers. But, for thee present, it must decline to do other than extend its thanks for all past favors and for those that it hopes will continue to come. OUR ANNAPOLIS CADETS. Westport is justly proud of its two pupils, Harold Train and Herbert Underwood, who have been selected as prospective students for the Annapolis Naval Academy. This is the first time that Westport will be represented in that institution. There is no cause to fear that a reputation in any Way discreditable to the school iwill be eistablislied, but rather is there the assur- ance that a full realization of the true Worth of the school will result from the work of these boys of Westport High. . ia 5 gy' 'S f we ies V age r!

The Fourth Annual Declamatory Contest took place at Allen Library Hall, on Friday even- ing, June 2. To say it was a success is but to repeat the words heard on all sides. To further say that the judges experienced great difliculty in choosing is again to voice the idea of all those present. Individual criticism can scarcely be made where the work was so uniformly good and the earnestness and sincerity so marked. That Miss Harriette Dorn and Mr. Joseph Farmer were awarded the prizes-each ten dollars in gold- vvas but a return for the finish and extreme ex- cellence of their work. An especial feature of the evening was the presentation of a gold medal to Mary Abercrom- bie for the best examination in American His- tory. The presentation was made by Mrs. T. B. Toomb, in behalf of the Elizabeth Benton Chap- ter of the Daughters of the American Revolu- Hdn. Mr. Walter Wolf also received a ten- dollar gold-piece as a prize for the best Temper- ance essay. Mrs. Middleton, representing the W. C. T. U., in a short but very interesting ad- dress presented the money and also offered sev- eral medals as mementoes to the other contest- ants who had received honorable mention.

' Once a year those who study the modern lan- guages gather in the lunch'-room to partake of the viands of their brothers and sisters across the sea. The date for the luncheon this year was the 30th of May. The lunch-room was draped in the red, white, and black of the German flags, and the red, white, and blue of the French flags. The Fac- ulty were the special guests, and Mr. Sass, Mr. Scott, and Mr. Green made themselves extremely entertaining by falling already prey to the care- fully laid traps of the pupils, who asked ridic- ulous questions which were answered by the un- suspecting ones by Oni, 'fdaj' 'fNein,'l and 'fNon. The tables were beautifully decorated with flowers. At intervals down the center of the long French table were tall vases of pink and white peenies, at each end were smaller vase.-1, ,.,, ...,,....,..,.-.- .. . .,. - I -.- -.......f.- . -- sr' -..-L '+-'-e.-f-i-3-v:+'b?1A: '-f I :'f :'--.

The phenomenon over which they are puzzling is taking place in the princi- pal cemetery of Marion, Ohio. A 4,200-pound stone ball, 36 inches in diameter, is slowly re- volving from north to, south about a horizontal axis. 'The ball rests free, with only a slight bearing on a large stone column. The rough, unpolished spot on which it first rested has moved over five inches since the first of August, and is now half-way to the top. No hoax in the moving of the ball is possible, as this would require extensive machinery. The most likely theory is that the heat of the sun expands the lball unequally, thus drawing it toward the south. Dr. Jules Rhens, of Paris, has been making experiments to ascertain the effects of radium upon the skin. The application of the rays of il-1600 ounce o-f radium gives no pain, but in a day a small red mark appears and remains for a fortnight. It then disappears, but leaves a scar similar to that left by a burn. If the rays are applied longer, the mark beco-mes vis- ible sooner, and if not treated medically, the fwound becomes painful and remains for a long period of time. Some of the wounds which were burned three months ago still show no signs of healing. I Professor Scott recently picked up near Dodson a trap-door spider. The species to lwhich this specimen belongs is commonly found farther south, in Texas and California, and it is quite unusual to find one so far north. The nest, which is a tube, about 45 inches in length, covered by a neatly fitted trap-door about 2 of an inch in diameter, has been mounted and is on view in the Laboratory. It has been discovered by Professor Chaveau that after exposure for fifty or sixty hours to the action of radium, viper or cobra poison be- comes harmless. ,.,N: V V WKVY A A - .Q I ' ,, , SYN: - - - - f 3 - V - -W' lg 7 ' .-- W- ' 2' lk .

On April 8, at Sportsman's Park, the West- port High School baseball team trimmed the Central High School nine by the close score of 10 to 9. It was an eleven-inning contest of the hair-raising sort. It was anybody's game until Westport made the winning run in thepeleventh inning on a two-bagger by Jennings, combined with a couple of errors by thewearers of the 'fblue and white? Central took the lead in the early part of the game, but was soon overtaken and passed by our boys. Again in the eighth inning Central tied us and then for three in- nings both teams struggled to score or to keep their opponents from scoring. At last, Central being unable to hold us any longer, our boys showed their superiority as players and quickly won the game.. Jennings, our new pitcher. an- grily caused eleven men to walk to the bench after they had fanned the air for three consec- utive times-the best record made by any pitch- er in the league this year. The next game played was with Manual, in which we were beaten by the score of 8 to 7. It was a tight game from start to finish, and one which was hard to lose. Our boys started off good and but for a little hard luck would most surely have won the gamel. In the last inning, with a man on second and third, Waltner hit a nice long single which scored two men and brought the score up to 8 to '7 in favor of Man- ual. Our next man up worked hard for a hit, but failed to connect, and our side was retired without scoring. Westport annexed her second victory by eas- ily defeating Kansas City, Kas. The boys from over the Kaw played ai good gamei, but were out-- classed by our boys in every department. ln only one inning did Kansas City, Kas., score, and then Jennings was only leitting his arm rest a little and giving them some encouragement. In that inning they crossed the rubber five times while our boys had scored 13 runs. at the end of the ninth inning. Westport batted like fiends. in this game, knocking one Kansas City, Kas., boy out of the box and making the second one feel like a flying machine. Manual, the much-lauded wonders and early' leaders of the league, were given a reception by' Westport at Association Park on a certain sunny afternoon during the last part of April. They were served with 18 pills of the run variety, while we in turn only received 7, which we accepted as a matter of courtesy. It was a walk- away from start toi finish for Westport 5 it really Ibecame monotonous to see nothing but the boys. in blue cross the place. Bramble, of Manual. was knocked out of the box almost every inning, but, as there was no one to take his place, he- stayed the limit. The Manual boys simply could not touch Jennings, only in thee last in-- ning did they connect with a few slow ones, but they were of little consequence in the run-get- ting. The boys all backed him up well, and when a hit was accidentally made, it was quickly gathered in and the man was soon put out. The batting averages for this game were as follows: Ragland, 600, Drake, 250, Dryer, 2005 Jen-- nings, 333, Oiltielly, 600, Waltner, 8333 Coop- er, 060, Dillingham, 500, Gregg, 500.

Double play-Jennings to Waltncr to Cooper, Cpllielly to Waltner to Cooper. , After winning from Manual, our boys be- came too coniident and thought they could not be beaten. The result was that when they played the next game with Central, they were sadly left. They started out like winners, which made them think they had the game cinched, and they didn't half try until it was too late. The iinal score was 12 to 8 in favor of Central. The last game with Kansas City, Kas., re- sulted in the bringing of Westport7s average to the front. In the early part of the game things looked like a victory for the Kansans, but our boys braced up in the latter part, and by a few well-placed hits runs were made. On the whole, the game was rather erratic and uninteresting, except that it decided Westportts place in the finals. The regular line-up for 1905 was as followsg Right. Field, Dillingham. Left Field, Drake. Center Field, Ragland. First Base, Cooper. Second Base, Waltner. Third Base, Gregg, R. Pitcher, Jennings. 0 Catcher, Dryer. Short Stop, C'Rielly. Substitutes, Folk, Waltner, Wright. M.u1.u.Ts or P.L.xYnRs.l Waltner has hit the ball good and hard all season. He is always there to start a batting rally and has a hit up his sleeve when it is badly needed. His iielding has been good and steady, seldom making errors. He has proved an ex- cellent captain, and what he has done for West- port will always be remembered. 2: a Dryer, our catcher, is an all-around good one. He has a good arm, which is shown by the few number of bases which are stolen. Although not a very hard hitter, he is always ready with a good long one when it is badly needed. :ia :lc 2: Jennings is not only the best player, but the headiest man on the team. He is an excellent batter, pitcher, base-runner, and fields his posi- tion well. lp Q V fr 72- -if The third base is well taken care of by R. Gregg. He covers a large area of territory, and is a true thrower to any base. His batting has not been up to his last yearps mark, but he has held his own with the average batter. :lf FK :if O'Hielly has played a very good game at short stop, although he is a triiie wild at times, lie seldom lets the ball pass him. His batting has been about the 350 mark. 4. .v . -. fp ff .5 Cooper, a new recruit for this year's team, has developed into a good, steady first-baseman. He is also fair with the stick. v 4. v. 34 -.- 2- Dillingham has played hard this season, and has developed into a good right-fielder. He does not often connect with the sphere, but when he does, it generally counts. as as 2: Although our center-iielder is short, he is fast, not only as a catcher of flies, but at the bat. He seldom goes to the plate without mak- ing a hit or getting his base on balls.

Westport not only has earned the reputation The umpires, as a rule, have been very satis- of being the best baseball players in Missouri. but has won an equally strong reputation for be- ing the most sportsmanlike players in the league.

The serious illness of the instructor, Miss Stoner, during the greater part of the 'term pre- vented us fro-m taking the usual invigorating work, but she came back just in time to keep the spring fever from overtaking us. P14 24 P14 We have been learning various swimming movements which will be of use to us this sum- mer-we hope. Pk F14 bk On the 20th of May we had a change from the usual routine, for the girls of the Gym had a picnic, and each girl was privileged to invite one other. P14 P14 P14 It is proverbially known that athletic girls Shave tremendous appetites--no canary-bird diet for them-and for a, couple of days before there were running matches from one house' to the othe-r where neighborhoods would permit. Mys- terious phrases could be heard, such as, fcYou bring thisf' or, No, I have that. Of course it was all very athletic, cultivating every muscle in the body. There wasnit any use for the swim- ming exercises, but plenty for certain facial mus- cles, when the day came. You remember the 2Oth? It was an ideal picnic day, and with all sorts of games sandwiched in between, the hours fairly fiew. Highly enjoyable all together, even if there were no boys allowed.

The Alumni reception was enjoyed not only by Clionians, but by certain nieinberjs of the other society as well. However, we do not be- grudge theni thel pleasure they got listening to Clionian witl and brightness, from seats on Walt- nerjs barn. 4 This year the Society, while it has been very successful, has had the usual needs for assist- ance, and so we wish to thank our adviser very heartily for helping us over the dilhcult places, and for all the things she has done for us.

They give us many rous- ing songs, and the Clionian spirit. always rises to its highest pitch when they are singing. Charles Mount will surely make a successful business man. The poor Freshmen and new .members could not escape his capacious fist when he thrust it out for dues. . The brightness of the Clio-niain posters is synonymous with the programmes that are given in the Society. Credit is due Miss Julia Green for their suggestiveness. The Clionians have talent in the Society in the presentation of farccs. Considerable skill and vivacity were shown in the farce, KA Court- ship under Diflicultiesf' rendered by Miss Anna Brainerd, Mr. Arthur J ones, and Mr. Fred Ryan. The Clionian-Round Table dance was cer- tainly a success. There was not a Clionian there who did not enjoy himself or herself to the full- est extent, and the only criticism offer-ed was the failure to obtain enough extras resulting from the lack of time. Our Programme Committee deserves especial mention, as the programmes have been .interest- ing, and have shown the result of hard work and tireless energy. The last business meeting of the Clionians was distinguished by a pleasant informality, which does not often appear in the meetings ot that staid body. One enthusiastic member pro- posed vote of thanks to the Programme Com- mittee for its pains, and the good results of the preparation of the Alumni programme. This was answered by a speech from the chairman, who added a vote of thanks to the Treasurer, who had collected the dues so assiduously that the Clionians literally had 'fmoney to burn? However, before there was time to have it sec- onded, somebody else amended it, adding the whole staff of officers, but this in turn was amended by including the adviser. Kliss Stoner. This had scarcely been seconded before another If young person had added Mr. Underwood, say- ing that without his friendly encouragement the Society could not have accomplished all that it has this year. He had not reached his seat when the Society jester arose and proposed thanking the whole Society. The motion was carried amid laughter and cheers. The Clionians have been trying all this year to entertain the members of the other Society, but they have been so lousy, trying to do all the things that devolve o-n such an important body, that it has been impossible to get this in. They hope to do it next year. We wish to thank the members for their reg- ular attendance at the Society, as they have sim- ply surpassed themselves. At one meeting of the Cliontins, we had a great deal of fun-- ---- so much fun, in fact, that our laughter drew the greater part of the- Fac- ulty. One of the teachers, who had been con- nected with the other Society, came in to-o. Speeches were called for, and a former adviser said that the increased number of the Society was indeed astonishing. It is no longer po-ssi- ble to designate the Clionians the smaller Soci- etyft though we are becoming anxious with re- gard to our oft-repeated aphorism of 'fQuality, not quantity. When a. Clionian leaves school, he is not for- gotten by his Clionian friends, and every year he receives a dainty invitation to come once more and mingle with his former classmates. This year's entertainment was as much of a success as have been those of the preceding years. For the first time in the history of the Society, some of the Clionians were able to put them- selves in the teachers, places and understand the difficulties of a teacherjs position. One of the ladies, whose coiffure has been greatly admired, was given the opportunity of seeing herself as others see herwg while the stately proportions of fthe principal were exemplified, as pronouncing the whole proceedings rather frivolous. But it was thought decidedly otherwise by the Alumni, who enjoyed not only the programme, but also the punch and cake that was served in the hall, with toasts and speeches. ln the Declamatory Contest that took place .Tune Qd, 1905, honors were won by Joseph Farmer, President, and Harriette Dorn, Vice- President, of the Clionian Society. 1 l 2.

THE DANCE. ' From, the time that the band struck up with the lively Radium Danceu until the faint, dy- ing strains of Ho-me, Sweet Home' floated through the Casino, the hall was a throng of delighted couples. The early streaks of dawn put in an appearance altogether too soon for us. The faces of all beamed forth with intense en- joyment during tho-se tive short Cas they seemed 1 I to usj hours. The evening passed so quickly that there was time for but one extra, though some of us were booked for fifteen of more. During the intermission we were entertained by a clever programme, in which one of the Fac- ulty, one of our Alumni, and members from both Societies participated. This was a unique method of making the evening enjoyable not only for those who danced, but also for those who did not care to. Someone has said that each year the open session has been more of a success than in the year preceding, but certainly We could not have had a better time than on the night of May 12. if Sk 222 News FROM THE FRONT. We have learned that Miss Winifred Adams, one of our Alumni, is studying medicine at Ann Arbor-a very unusual course for a young lady. George Underwood, We are proud to state, was recently elected to the Phi Beta Kappa at M. S. U. He was also granted a scholarship of -33125 for next year. All of this is the result of exceptional study. Mr. Underwood was an R. T.

The Debat- ers have been improving this year, and we hope by next year to have a larger and better organized body than at any preceding term. The order has been greatly improved, and the strict adher- ence to Parliamentary usages is quite noticeable. Although We have had fewer debates this term than last, owing to the study of Robert's 'CRules of Order, yet the matters of business that have come up have been dealt with in a manner equal to that of much older and better organized bodies.

The Iota Kappa Beta Society was organized in the fall of 1904 by a handful of girls who wished to make a particular study of history, hence the name of the Society, Iota Kappa Betaj' Greek characters standing for History and Life. The membership of the Society is limited to twenty, so that congenial and serious work may be done by the members, without the diversions occasioned by larger numbers. As this is the first year of the Society, it has seemed best to hold the membership for this year to an even smaller number until the organization fully completed and put into smooth running order. Next fall we hope to begin the new term with our full quota. These restrictions and the Greek letter may' seem suggestive of a secret or- ganization, but the Iota Kappa Beta is not a sorority. The scope of the topics to be reviewed is in- finite, and in that we feel that we have a firm foundation for work in future years. There is no reason, then, why the Society should not grow in strength as Westport High School grows in size. The work of the past term has been very en- joyable, so much so that we have taken up the study of buts one country, Holland, and its de- pendency, Java. There is so much of interest in Holland that too much time could not be given to her with her queer manners and customs. It was surprising to us, when we studied about Java, to learn that there was a country so unadvanced and apart from civilization. The most novel idea to be read was that the people carry um- brellas of different colors over their heads to suggest the different ranks. For one of the bi-monthly social aifairsxthe Society was entertained by Miss Wilder. There were light refreshments, while an interesting col- lection of forty-five shoes, gathered from all parts of the wo-rld, and the Ancient Histories of the-m gave a rare turn to the afternoon's pleasure.

The article closes with these remarks: . - -odi-. 'fThere is another thing that should be well founded and strongly built upon in the high school-character. College is the place where one can only give the finishing touch to his char- acter. Good or bad touch mainly depends upon the individual-upon his former character. This is particularly so in a co-educational institution. Although the students are often advised to build good character, in college, a greater part of the school time is spent under their own pleasure. There are more chances of losing the firmness of one's character-beginning of bad touch. So in high school one should not only build a good character, but should also appreciate it, and be strong and ready in any emergency to resist temptation, and by so doing to uphold the dig- nity of the high school which he left. ,l As we know so little of sun-spots, we are always interested in new discoveries. It was discovered not long ago by an eminent astron- omer of England that dro-ughts and famines could be foretold by the position of certain sun- spots.

IS A LAWYER ,IUSTIFIED IN DEFENDING A BAD CAUSE? One be-comes interested upon the first reading ,of this question, for it means at great deal to every lawyer. If the negative be proven, a law- yer commits a crime whenever he defends a bad cause, if the positive be true, he does what is right in defending a bad cause. An endeavor to settle the question in oneis own mind brings these points foremost: As all people are not versed in the law, it becomes necessary to authorize persons to act in the place of others in law proceedings, even for those who are capable, it is prudent and custom- ary to hire attorneys to manage their cases. A decision is modified by the circumstances , hence we see how a lawyer affects the decision by bringing out the circumstances in favor of his client. This question, I think, has more to do with criminal than civil causes, for, in the first place, there is more involved, and, in the second, a lawyer must use more of his own ingenuity and eloquence. A Now let us read the question again: 'fls a lawyer vindicated in maintaining a cause morally defective P A lawyer is in that occupation for the same object as the Wall Street business man, for the same purpose as the day laborer, namely, to make money to earn his bread. Hence his nat- ural instinct does not allow him to wait for and pick out good causes to defend, but prompts him to take any cause wherein there is sufficient pay for his labor. I anticipate your thought that this is a low element to defend him, nevertheless that justification comes foremost in the minds of the majority to-day. Is there any restriction in the law as to what sort of a client a lawyer should take? No, for the law considers a man innocent untill proven guilty, then a lawyer is defending an innocent man in the eyes of the law and is therefore 'us- . P t J tified as far as the law is concerned. Consider that when a man is accused of a crime the first law of nature plays an important part-that of self-preservation. The State con- siders this so far as to furnish the man unable to pay with a lawyer to defend him. Then, since the man is justified in defending himself, is not the lawyer who must act in his stead justified in defending him? Again, consider that the man does not corn- mit a crime without some cause or motive, if he is in his right mind, if not, he certainly ought to be defended. If possible, sift his motive, and perhaps we would not be so apt to fix the abso- lute baseness of the crime. Do not misunder- stand me in thinking that I excuse crime, not in the least, but we are all human and liable to temptation and sin. Thus a lawyer may know the law in a certainicase. He knows his own opinion, but he does not always know the heart of his client, then is he not justified in giving his client the benefit of the doubt? Lastly, follow the- results of two cases-one wherein a guilty man is successfully defended, and another in which a criminal receives the full punishment of the law. In the first case, the man is set free or his sentence lightened a great deal, he has a chance to repent and live a new life, whereas, in the second, the criminal has per- haps received just punishment, but is he likely to repent behind prison walls? has he a chance to live a better life? f'Earthly power doth then show likest God's when mercy seasons justicef' Reflect for a moment and consider these things, and I am sure the question will arise in your mind as it did in mine, Wherein does a law- yer lack justification in defending a bad cause?

Reaching as I have the pinnacle of human achievement, the place of Senior, I feel it a duty to advise you, the lesser ones, as to the philoso- phy of life. Find you first for yourself those Wise Ones who may be Ksvorkedj' and for the go-od of your card,', work them-but subtly, mark you, for 'tis an art to be used most deli- cately. If you have a. tongue, use it, giver to your thoughts their fullest expression, for 'tis he in whose bosom swells the greatest happiness when the 'fcardsv be passed. Yet think you not too deeply, lest you bc- come tangled in the meshes of your own wisdom and be even as he who ponders not. Be you full of wit, but beware how you express it, for oft they who laugh with you laugh also at you 5 make you the jewels of your wit rather as diamond than pearls. ' Guard you the fruits of your labor with sacred vigilance, for there be some not as dili- gent as you 5 you may be alone or among the few in righteousness, and greater is the glory shared by few, and thus be faithful to yourself, and it follows as a dog his master that you shall be successful. KA SENIOR? ,l COLLEGIATE SCHOLARSHIP. The Association of Collegiate Alumnae has granted a scholarship for the year 1905-06 to Miss Mabel Eggleston, who is one of this yearis graduates of the Westport High School. i Miss Eggleston entered the Westport High School in September, 1901, and in each of the four years of the course has distinguished hGT- self by superior scholarship. To her literary at- tainments she has added considerable skill in art work, and her selection for the honor conferred is certainly the reward of merit. The year's work is probationary, but there is no question but Miss Eggleston will prove her claims to further consideration.

BRADY'S INSUBORDINATICN. The hot, dazzling Cuban sun was just rising as Lieutenant Brady looked out of his tent at the retreating ranks of his fellow-soldiers. Brady would have given a month's pay to be allowed to go with them -to the big Spanish block-house, but two weeks before he had sprained his ankle in dismounting from his horse, and was just beginning- to walk with a cane. With a sigh of disgust, he hobbled off towards the mess-tent. Jim', Brady was the son of an Irishman, a business man in New York. He had received a good education and obtained a cadetship at West Point. Here he had done very well and was regarded by the officers in charge as a prom- ising young officer, when the death of his father called him away just at the end of his second year. lt was found that the affairs of the elder Brady were not in good shape, and young Jim, now twenty years of age, was compelled to re- sign from West Point and support his mother. He obtained a position as clerk in a large New York bank, and was working in this position when the Spanish-American War broke out. He immediately joined a volunteer regiment and was commissioned first lieutenant. Jim was a big athletic fellow, and, after the cramping work of the bank, enjoyed the outdoor life of the camp exceedingly. The thought of going back to clerk's work after the war was most un- pleasant to him. The night before the general set out for the block-house, he gave Brady command of the camp, with this injunction: I may send for the battery I am leaving here. Colton is to bring it and you are not to come. You are pos- itively not to leave campf' A Colton, the sergeant of artillery, though a very capable officer, was somewhat liable to get drunk. He had narrowly escaped court-martial several times for this during the campaign. About eleven o'clock, while Lieutenant Brady was comfortably smoking his pipe and reading a novel, an orderly came running in with a mes- sage' from the general, which ordered Colton to be sent with the battery. He was to bring it L1 a certain hill and open fire upon the block-house. A map of the route by which the cannon were to be brought was enclosed. ' CfT'ell Sergeant Colton to come herefj said Jim to the orderly. The orderly saluted and hurried off, but re- turned in about ten minuteswith the news that Colton was drunk. Brady hobbled down to the sergeantps tent and found Colton in a drunken stupor. He would not be sober until the next day. Meanwhile, what was to be done? There was no other man whom Brady could trust with the important task of moving two heavy guns across five or six miles of bad roads and across a river. But Brady did not intend to give up. The general must not be disappointed, besides, here was an excellent excuse to get into the fight, which was what the Irishman had been wish- ing for. Brady at once decided to take the can- non himself. While he was preparing the battery for trav- el, the lieutenant sent forward half a dozen men to the river to construct a raft. Then he him- self started, with twenty more men, the artillery mules, and the ammunition. Brady rode his horse, with one foot in the stirrup, the other in a huge carpet slipper. The sun beat down fiercely, but at last the cannon were brought safe- ly to the river-bank. Here the raft was ready, and the lieutenant sup-erintended the loading of the artillery upon it. Everything had been safely taken over, and the last cannon was being hauled up the opposite bank on a Kcorduroyi' track when a Spanish shell came whistling down. Nobody was hurt, but when the smoke cleared away it was seen that the shell had demolished the ropes by which the cannon was to be pulled up the bank, and all had rolled back into the water and were slowly settling down, deeper and deeper.

Bradyts face became white with rage, and he relapsed into his native brogue. Come on, ye cowardly spalpeens! they eanit hit you,', he yelled, and, regardless of his ankle, jumped knee deep into the mud and water. The men hesi- tated a moment, then followed him with a cheer. Everyone took hold of the ropes and sturdily heaved. The shells were splashing water and mud, but they kept on. Pulling and cheering, they at last brought. the big guns safe to dry land. The remaining two miles was an easy jour- ney through a grove where they were safe from Spanish shells. At last they came out upon an open hillside, the place to which the general had directed them. Below them lay the block-house, to left of it were the earthworks of their own regiment. A little breastwork was thrown up and the big guns were set in position. It was then that Bradyis skill in marksman- ship served him in good stead, for without Ool- ton there was but one gunner-himself. There was something inspiring in the whole idea of his failure to obey, the conquest of his difficulties, and the very pain that his sprained muscles gave him. Over and over again the effects of his well-directed aim against the hastily built block- house could be seen, and when, after a half- hour's firing, the white flag was hoisted over its shattered roof, Brady knew his work was done. A little later the general himself rode over to congratulate Oolton. Instead he found Brady, grimy, perspiring, covered with mud to the waist, smoking his pipe with a contented grin upon his face. Brady!'7 exclaimed the general. What do you mean, sir? This is disobedience and insub- ordination. Have to send you to the guard- house K Brady saluted respectfully and looked hum- bly penitent. Two months later the general told me this story. As he finished, he pulled a document out of his desk. A commission for Brady, making him a captain in the regular Armyjt he eX- plained, looks like a reward for insubordina- tion, lim afraidf' E. R. S., '06, MORAL ASPECTS OF THE MONROE DOCTRINE. The Monroe doctrine is the one political principle which has been and is accepted by American statesmen of every party. Every pres- ident in whose administrative term any question involving the principle has arisen, has repeated, and, if necessary, has extended the doctrine, and been applauded for so doing. P There seems no reason at present for antic- lipating a change of view on the part of influen- tial public men. Should it become necessary for this Government not only to make a display of force, but also- tor use force- to uphold this doc- trine, we may be sure that timid and ultra-con- servative men will seek reasons for abandoning this time-honored principle. In their search they will be- assisted by the anti-imperialists, who hold that the Monroe doc- trine has no foundation in international law and equity, that we are in no danger of foreign ag- gression, that our interference is unwelcome to those in whose behalf it is made, and that the doctrine menaces seriously the peace and pros- perity of the world. lt seems worth while to consider whether the objections just noted are fair and sound. In other words, to examine the moral basis of the doctrine. We are not to inquire whether any reasons for having the doctrine still remain, nor 'whether or how far it has been modified in our time. All that concerns us is to know that the doctrine in its present form and in modern application represents a policy that can be de- fended, as one justifies his conduct toward his neighbors, a policy that makes for the peace of the world, a policy that conduces to the inde- pendence of the nations affected by it, a policy that is generous, humane, and benevolent on the -part of the government. that maintains it. One answer to these claims is furnished by - , ..,.,.,,..-1..-f,..,lr.,- 52 THE WESTPOBT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. history. Our Government has upheld this doc- 'trine for over eighty years, and has asserted it on many occasions. In one case of its application, it frustrated the attempt of the Emperor ot France to wrest the government of Mexico from the inhabitants of' this country and to set up an empire as next-door neighbor to the United States. On anotfier occasion it protected Vene- zuela from a forcible annexation of territory by Great Britain and secured for it a peaceable hear- ing before a constituted tribunal. And still lat- er, the action of the American Navy in prevent- ing a blockade of the port of Rio de Janeiro, broke up a plot., of which the commanders of sev- eral European squadrons were cognizant, to re- store the imperial government of Brazil. These are the most conspicuous, but by no means all of the occasions when action of the 'United States has been based upon the Monroe doctrine. In every case, not only in those men- tioned but in many others, the Government has intervened not to destroy, but to preserve the sov- ereignty of the weak members of the American family of republics. It has never exacted or claimed a penny of indemnity, nor has it ever asked for or taken an inch of territory from any country whose sovereignty it has defended. It has in every case t.aken the part of the weaker nation against the stronger. During the last twenty years nearly the 'whole of Africa has been partitioned among the powers of Europe, who upon diferent claims have seized parts of Asia. There are few, if any, of the islands of the Pacific which have not been annexed by the colonizing coun- tries of Europe. During all this time that encroachments in other countries have been going on, the conti- nents of America have been wholly free from the exploits of European enterprises against na- tive governments. Was it because Central and South America offered less enticing fields for such enterprises? By no means. There is not a region on the globe not already controlled by Great Britain of more importance to the Gov- ernment than the strip of territory between Mex- ico and Venezuela. The colonization of the Ger- mans in Brazil is more than suggestive of aspira- tions which might be realized were there only native governments to overcome. If the duty rests anywhere, it rests with the United States to defend these countries from ag- gressions, and that nation is the one disposed to do so. . It is said that it might develop South Amer- ica better if European countries were in posses- sion of it, but no such consideration can enter into the argument. It is not disputed by any- one that the governments of Central and South America are justly established. It is universally ladmitted that the people of these countries have a right to preserve or overthrow their govern- ments. The Monroe doctrine forbids that right to powers across the seas. It is not for us to decide whether the other nations would make the republics better or worse. Our policy must be a consist-ent one. ,A f In the primitive community, every individual exists on condition only that he be strong enough to defend it. The primitive situation prevailed, and to a certain extent still prevails, in respect to natural governments. International law, arbi- tration tribunals, and the like are much more 'difficult to establish than civil governments over communities. Two centuries have not passed since the first principles of international law began to be ac- cepted by nations. They recognize the binding force of certain rules. In some cases two sover- eign combatants have not been allowed to ar- range peace, but have been forced morally, if not -physically, to accept a settlement proposed by a council of powers. Thus, gradually, a system among nations corresponding to civil government is establishing itself. Although the Monroe doc- trine is not a part of international law, consid- ered, agreed upon, and established by the con- cert of powers, and although it was originated solely by the United States, as a strong nation, yet gradually other nations have conceded our right or our duty t.o defend it. i EDNA NELSON, '06. j FQ Soi the co: taining attachi the vei at Whi answer they si Ms often who h too yo him w bound withir passed she m three-Q she as a mar appoii turnet about told t to suc TE fully ' ' CCT-'I but he beyon baptiz W .

' Some people believe, when they want to know the condition of the health or of anything per- taining to a friend or relative to whom they are attached, that if they 'fcut the Bible and read the verse at the top of the left page of the place at which it opens, that verse will contain the answer or some allusion to the answer which they seek. Mary Edwards, an orphan of sixteen years, often wondered what had become of her father, who had left home when she was very young- too young to- remember him. All she knew of him was that the ship in which he had sailed was bound for the East Indies, expecting to return within a year. But fourteen years had now passed and no one had heard of him. One day she met a friend who had just returned from a three-years visit to the Oriental countries, and she asked him if he had heard, in his travels, of a man named Alfred Edwards, but she was dis- appointed to learn that he had not. She re- turned home discouraged, and, while thinking about it, she remembered that her mother had told her of cutting the Bible to find an answer to such trouble as the one she was now under. Taking up the book, and holding it prayer- fully to her, she cut it and the verse she read was: i f'Therefore, they sought again to take him, but he escaped out of their hand, anid went again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized 5 and there he abodef' When Mary read these Words, they decided her to go in search of her father at once. Her guardian and friends sought to turn her away 'from the attempt, but she was so very determined that they finally consented to allow her to go. When she arrived there, she searched for three months, but without success-she could ind no trace of her father. One day, as she was walking in the suburbs of the town, she noticed fa. very odd little hut, built in the style of a. small drawing which had belonged to her father. As she drew near the hut, she decided to ask its occu- pants for a drink of water. Her knock at the door was answered by a colored boy, who admit- ted her into a small room that was very neat. I While the boy went out in obedience to her requestfor water, she examined the room more closely. She found nothing unusual in the fur- nishings until she glanced up over the rude man- tle, there she was surprised to see at family group of three. Looking closer, she saw that it was a picture of her father, her mother, and herself. 'She hastily crossed. the room and was staring at fit with wide-open eyes when a man of about fifty years entered, and, seeing the girl making her- self so much at home, said: f'My dear young lady, I am afraid you have made a mistake in the house that you have entered. You a.re in the home of Alfred Edwardsf' I f All the answer the girl made was to turn her face towards him-no other explanation was needed.

If it wasntt a success, it was no fault of ours-We did the work. The unipirejs decisions are someitinies like foul balls: you ean't tell just how they light. After tak- ing Manual into camp to the tune of 18 to 7 the last time, she was given a decision of 4 to 1 this time, thus giving Manual the pennant. Near the close of the garner we had an excel- lent opportunity of running the score to a tie: with O'Rielly on second, WVt1ltllGI' on first, and Jennings at the bat and two outs, a. fly was knocked to third, and the baseman fumbling it, advancing O7Rielly and Waltner. O'Rielly was called out by the umpire on the charge of inter- ference. On the strength of this, the decision was given to Manual. Jennings pitched by far thee best game of the season, striking out twelve Manualites While season, striking out but six Westports. In interest the game had all the value of a professional game, and far the best work was done by Westport.

I Cadillac Automobile Co., Kansas City, Mo. CHICAGO, May 23, 1805- Gentlemen: 5 Mr. Lott's Cadillac Runabout arrived about a Week ago, and I took it into my space in the Oak Park garage and I tuned it up. Have therefore a chance to find out what a Cadillac Runabout is like. I ship it up to St. Paul to-night, over the I Great Western. I am more than delighted with the machine. All stories about two cylinders, vibration, speed, smoothness and power are now set at rest. I am riding in steamers, four-cylinder cars, autocars and everything.

Poor little Freshmen! there, dontt you cry, You'll all be Seniors in the- by and by. Don't cry for nursey, for mother donpt Sigh, You 'll all be Seniors in the by and by. Next year, when we were Sophies, our heads began to grow, We thought that there were very few things we did not know. Called mother a back number, told dad he was a, jay, Thought we were oracles till we he-ard the teacher say: CHORUS. Poor little Sophiesl back, back with you, You flunked in Latin, which of course won't. do, Your minds are weak yet-still, if you try, You ,ll all be Seniors in the by and byf' We had a class of Juniors, such as is seldom seen , Haughty and proud our manner, and dignified our mien. Spectacles on our noses, studio us were our looks, We burned the oil of midnight, pondering o'er our books. CHORUS. Still those old Seniors to us would say: You're childish Juniors yet, so run away. Don't fe-el so lordly, and hold your head so high, Wait till you 're Seniors in the by and by. Now then, at last, wetre Seniors, now then, we know it all- Know all about the great things, know all about the small, We criticise Bill Shakespeare, pick out old Milton'S flaws, And could give Noah Webster words that would make him pause 'C CHORUS. For we are Seniors, all things we know, Watch the world tremble when our brains we show. We all be admired in the public eye, When we get busy in the by and by. l l, Winn .,,,,., .4 , c..,.
