L I CRIER WAND MID-YEAR HERALD Explanatory to the fact that there was no exchange of lXTID-YEAR HERRXLDJS with other high schools, we desire to call the attention of our out-of-town readers to the establishment in Westport High School, of a class in journal- ism. This is rather an experiment for high schools, but the experiment has been very suc- cessful. The class has published a bi-weekly newspaper The Crier, and because of its pub- lication, it was thought there was no occasion for a MID--YEAR HERALD. For the same reason, the staff of THE HERALD has deter- mined t-o publish the ANNUAL HERALD as a Senior's Annual, and toward that end we have bent our efforts. We deeply regret any dis- appointment which may have been caused by the discontinuation of the MID-YEAR HERALD, and we sincerely hope that the change will be satisfactory to our readers. SCHOOL SPIRIT It has been said that school spirit is that intangible, indefinite, loyal support which bears the same relation to the school which patriot- ism bears to the nation. At various times in Westport's history, her school spirit has been lamented, and praised, but this year it has been possible to refer to Westport's loyalty only with glowing and enthusiastic admiration. The ardent support given VVestport's own rep- resentatives in debates, plays, and athletics has been most praiseworthy, and the courtesy ex- tended to visiting teams has far surpassed that of any other Kansas City- high school. And yet-has the Westport student body yet found real school spirit? School spirit is manifested in two different ways-by fighting for Vlfestport on the basket- ball Hoor or the debate platform, and by cheer- ing NVestport's representatives -on to their best efforts. Who really serves his school better, the fellow who struggles for Westport in a personal contest, or the fellow who sits on the front row and pours his scho-ol spirit through his vocal chords? This is easily answered. Westport could continue to win contests with- out the cheer-leader, but without the contestant she could do nothing. There are many who now c-online their efforts to cheering, but who should themselves be entered in the contest. Without realizing it, you may be a better bas- ket-ball player, a better tennis player, o-r a better debater than any in the Interscholastic League. If Maurice McLaughlin had held himself in obscurity, who would to-day be ten- nis champion of the world?

Now, ardent Westporters, are you giving Westport the best you have when you hope, and talk, and yell for her? Westport is grate' ful for that, but would you not serve her better by coming out for basket-ball, track, or tennis, or by trying for essay contests, debates, and plays? Let's try, and look forward to West- port as an ever-victorious high school when she has found this true school spirit! ..l.1i.i,. GIRLS DEBATING At last it has arrived! Girls debating in Kansas City's high schools. After years of agitation, it has been accomplished 3 and has it been wo-rth the effort? Undoubtedly! The work of the girl debaters this year compared very favorably with that of the boys, in fact, some people declare that it was superior to the boys' debating. Let us hope that it will con- tinue to thrive and prosper as it deserves. This is one line of high school activity where Kansas City is leading the other great cities of America. But there are many new activities which Kansas City is installing now, far ahead of the other educational centers, and there are many in which Westport is taking the lead over Kansas City's other high schools. Among these activities is Westport's Student Aid Fund. The purpose of this fund is to assist needy students with small loans, and the business is conducted much as Aid Funds in large colleges and universities are controlled. Westport is the Hrst high school in this vicin- ity to establish a student aid fund, and the success of the project is certain. SENIOR RECEPTION Imagine it! a Senior-Faculty reception, and everybody had a perfectly delightful time. This may seem richly imaginative to the underclass- men, awestricken with our austere Faculty, but nevertheless- The reception held on April 29th was the manifestatio-n of a desire on the part of the Faculty to become better acquainted with the student body. It only reached the Seniors this time, but it more than accomplished its purpose. We hear rumo-rs of receptions for the under- classmen next year. We hope so-. lla-i-.-K,-. ASSEMBLY DEBATING The plan of holding the Interscholastic De- bates in the auditoriums of the various high schools attheirregularassemblyhour has proved a great success. Those who remember the small but choice crowds who used to turn out to hear the debates in the evening, are heartily in sympathy with the new plan. The only op- position to this scheme was that the debating would have to be done before partial audiences. This was partly done away with by holding the contests in supposedly neutral schools. Al- though some of the schools were anything but neutral, Westport is to be congratulated upon her absolute squareness. Another example of Westport's superiority in school spirit.

JL iferafure HA PE Kansas City, the Product of Industry tThis essay won first prize in the Manufacturers' Parade Essay Contestj It may well be said that the opening of Kansas Cityys new Union Station marks the beginning of a new epoch in her career of prosperity. The first period of her history opened with the settlement, in 180-8, of a fur trader on the bluffs north of the Eighth Street tunnel. The cityis growth was slow at first, but in 1869 the Town of Kansasl' was raised to a new class by the building of a bridge. The dawn of the third great era was occasioned by the erection of the Union Sta- tion in l877. But the greatest epoch is'now beginning with the opening of our new Union Station, and Qctober 30, l9l4, will be re- membered as the most important day in Kan- sas City history up to this time. Twenty-five years ago, an official of a coni- mercial organization in Kansas City declared that the city could never claim the name, Metropolis of the Vtfestw until she could re- ceive, and properly dispose of, the minerals with which the adjacent territory is rich, the great quantities of wheat, corn, sorghum, flax, and tobacco grown in every state traversed by our railroads, and the wool, hides, horns, bones, and bristles of the vast herds of cattle, sheep, and hogs raised on the surrounding prairies and hills. He asserted that Kansas City could not profess to be the Gateway to the VVest until she could make the brick, lime, cement, nails, oils, white lead, woolen goods, leather goods, rope and tobacco that are needed in the markets of the Southwest, the Vtfest, and the Northwest. It seems that he anticipated Kansas City in l9l4 when he made this statement, and if he saw the Manufacturers' Parade on Qctober thirtieth, he realized that the condition he niade in l887 is fulfilled, and that Kansas City has earned her position of supremacy inthe Trans-Mississippi district. Together with the rest of Kansas Cityls proud citizens he may have witnessed on that day the fruit of his cityis labors. The miniature steel structures, the steel smoke houses and poultry houses, and the other manufactured articles would have convinced him that Kansas City can now efficiently handle the raw material from near- by minesg the exhibits of candy, cakes, pickles, Hours, and other foods would have shown him ff rr' r - '--f ----E.- I ,g K 'i:3AfX!-I-Ii wi s . 18 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHQQL HERALD. that we can care for all the farm products, and the displays of nuts and bolts, barrels, keys, artihcial limbs, Hue linings, overalls, window casements, mattresses, trunks, harness, enve- lopes, and plumbing supplies would have borne witness that Kansas City is well able to supply such articles to all the markets of her tributary territory. ' Manufacture and commerce make the city, and Kansas City owes her remarkable develop- ment to these institutions. Kansas City and all of the manufacturing cities of the United States, feel the hardship of dull business in dry goods and real estate much less than do the other American cities, for their factories form a system of home production and consumption. The employee receives his wage from the manufacturer. He -spends it with the local retailer, who returns it to the factory in pay- ment for his goods. The money is earned and spent in Kansas City, and we are comparatively who patronize home industry, as they do not buy silks and satins, and imported shoes and hats, but the more substantial goods made at home. Regarding this factory as a unit, how much patronage of home industry is due to the manufacturer? Manufacturing, furthermore, develops the natural resources, and creates a cash retail mar- ket for products of the soil. Kansas City's 1,200 factories employ 40,000 persons who sup- port 100,000 people and buy Kansas City food and clothing. Is it a mere supposition that a large proportion of Kansas City's increase in the last ten years has been due to her factories? In twenty-seven years, Kansas City factories have realized for Kansas City what was a magnificent ideal. Wliat ideal will we now find worthy of our effort? The commercial and geographical center of the Trans-Missis- sippi territory, with convenient traffic lines by independent of big business and stock gamble- dom. For a concrete example, let us consider a factory which employs one hundred men, each of whom receive 31.50 per day. This factory then pays il545,0'00.00 annually to men rail and water, and best of all, with an ardent push Kansas City spirit, what shall we ex- pect in the dawn -of the next period of Kansas City prosperity?

Alone in his study, Mr. Robert Edward Reid sank back, gasping, into his easy chair. Damnation, he muttered, explosively. 'fBob Reid, you're an unmitigated donkey, if ever there was one! Why under the shining canopy did you ever accept such a blame fool bet? Wheii it comes to bally, asinine stunts, I'll recommend a man who thinks he knows something. Uh! you chump-you blamed, old, batty chump! You pride yourself on your learning, don't you-your thoughtful, grave consideration of all problems? Sure you do- and now you let a blamed, little, sawed-off runt come along and bamboozle you into a state of complete, brainless idiocy. Ye gods ln For some time poor Bobby puffed noisily at his little, black pipe, but after a while the soft spring breeze, borne in through the open windows from the newly awakening garden, smoothed out the worried wrinkles in his brow and seemed to blow away his troubled thoughts. He sat up suddenly, completely restored to his usual calm, serene state of mind. 'fBosh ! he remarked, waving away his troubles with a careless hand. There's only one chance in a million! and besides, how many girls are named 'Mary' nowadays? They're all Gene- vieves, and Luciles, and Muriels-I'll bet there aren't more'n than three Marys in this whole town!!' all X PK Three days later Bobby started out to win his wager. His plans were all made. He was to drive in any direction that Fancy seemed to lead, and the first native-stone, red-tile- roofed house he came to was to be the house. He had driven scarcely half a mile when he spied it-in fact, it almost seemed to leap out at him from the row of pretty houses along the shady street. It was a pretty place-he was glad of that-set far back from the street among vines and shrubbery. It had a wide veranda running around three sides of it, and its red-tile roof sparkled in the sun. Bobby halted his little green machine in front of the broad, white walk, and squaring his shoulders defiantly, he marched stiffly up to the hospitable front door. Preparing to ring the bell, he was startled by a soft, merry, little voice, saying, I-Iello-of ! and Bobby turned to discover, leaning back in a huge, cretonne-cushioned porch swing, kept in motion by a tiny, black-slippered t-oe, a veritable pink and gold vision, whose brown eyes regarded him laughingly from behind a small, pink-beribboned, white kitten. PF X 2: Seventy-two minutes later, jimmy Wain- wright's interested consideration of the latest best-seller was interrupted by a noisy pound- ing at his door, which opened immediately to admit Mr. Robert Edward Reid. I!ve come for that pup, my good man, he announced, condescendingly, surveying jimmy with eyes full of triumph, but thinly veiled by the haughty, bored expression on his counte- nance. jimmy was startled into rare animation, Honest, old man ? he yelled delightedly. Did you honestly get up the nerve? Rah for you-Bobby, my son, you're 'mprovin' rapidly! Sa-ay Bobby, drop that Lord Percival Mont- gomery stare and tell me what happened. f'Oh! I had a peach of a time, declared Bobby, airily. Well-ll, letls see. About two o'clock I got dressed-I put on that classy gray suit, that new one, you know-and my lavender fixings, you know-shirt, sox, tie, handkerchief-theylll always fall for that com- bination, you kn-ow. Sa-ay I surely looked nifty! concluded Bobby, modestly. Aw, cut it, you chump ! ejaculated Jimmy. HI didn't ask for a description of your manly beauty. I realize itls dazzling to strangers, but long association enables me to survey you with comparative comfort-I might almost say in- difference. Talk up, you bloomin' idiot! As I was just saying, continued Bobby smoothly, I mounted the steps, and was just ready to ring the bell, when I heard the sweetest voice you ever listened to! It said , - 1 ffffgahfex , in -ISIN 20 THE VVESTPORT HIGH SCHOQL HERALD. ' 'Hello-ol' and of course I turned around, and say-ay-y! Bobby was pensively silent for some thirty seconds, but the dramatic effect was somewhat marred by thehaste withwhich he was forced to resume his narrative in order to 'escape the punishment threatened by jimmyls darkening scowl. There,,' he said, impressively, sat the most beautiful creature ever put on earth by a kind and bountiful Providence. She's just a slip of a thing, with the most wonderful goldenhcurls, and brown eyes, and a complexion-jimmy, my man, that complexion makes you think of apple blossoms, and pink roses, and velvet, and peaches and cream-gee, but Mary sure is- Mary,', shrieked jimmy. Bobby-as you love me-her name really isn't Mary!', That's what I asked her,'l replied Bobby, calmly, was soon as I got my breath, and she was so surprised, and asked me how I guessed it. Wfe talked about half an hour, and she let me hold her kitten, and say-she has the sweetest voice you ever heard, sort of high, you know, and real rippling and laughing- babbling brooks aren't in it. She had on a pink dress that just matched her cheeks, and it- had all sorts of little, fluffy, dangling things on it -and,', c-oncluded Bobby, triumphantly, she asked me to come again! Gee, you're a lucky dog! groaned jimmy enviously. Now, if I had done a fool trick like that 'Miss Mary' would have been an old maid with side curls and false teeth like the old maid in the story, who was called to the 'phone by mistake, and said, 'Yes, Iill marry you-who is it, please P' Say, Bobby, I'm a good friend of yours-youlre not going to keep all this to yourself, are yOU, B0bbY, Old man?

Could you tell me, Bobby P Thanks, jimmy, said Bob, gratefully. UNO, it can't be helped. He rose with an assump- tion of cheer. But Ilve won my wager, old man-wherels the pup ? jimmy brought it gladly. You sure deserve it, he said, sympathetically. It's all right- I know you don't want to tell me-but I un- derstand, and I'm mighty, mighty sorry. I donlt mind telling youf, said Bob, one hand on the door knob, the other grasping the dog's chain.

'TTB .1 .W - - X. 22 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. Around' Early Kansas City THE SANTA FE TRAIL The early part of the eighteenth century saw the beginning of a prosperous trade with New Mexico. In the first years the route across the great plains went directly west from the Missouri River to the mountains, and then south to Santa F e by the circuitous trail from Taos. When the traffic assumed an impor- tance demanding a more easy line of travel, the road was changed to the left bank of the Arkansas until that stream turned northwest, at which point it crossed the river and con- tinued south to Raton Pass. The famous trail crossed VVestport avenue at what is now called Mill street. The trail, together with some excellent springs on the bank of the old mill creek, were very largely respo-nsible for the settlement and importance of the town of VVestport in later years. Because of its position, Westport became a great outhtting station. Manufactories of every kind relating to transportation sprang up. Santa Fe was then a town of about two hundred thousand inhabitants, crowded up against the mountains. Although the town was dirty and unkempt, it still retained some portion o-f the grace which long lingered about it. The Palace, the largest mud house in the town, is very noted historically. As the his- tory of Santa Fe is the history of New Mex- ico, so is the history of the Palace the history of Santa Fe. I Many famous characters, such as Kit Car- son, -Iim Badger, Uncle Dick Norton, and others, were closely associated with the trail. The Atchison, Topeka. Sz Santa Fe Railroad substantially follows the trail through the Rocky Mountains, which in this part affords the wildest and most picturesque scenery on the continent. The palace coaches, however, that cross the old trail to-day carry no provis- ion for yelling Comanches, Cheyennes, Arap- ahoes, etc. They lose no time treating and trading with the Indians, and are never out of sight of the miraculous changes exhibited by the advance of civilization. - BESSIE M. K1DsoN, 'l5. INDEPENDENCE Independence, the county seat of jackson County, was founded in 1827. Until 184-O it promised to be the great city of the West. The General Assembly appointed David Ward and Julius Emmons of Lafayette County to select the seat of justice for Jackson County. They preempted one hundred and sixty acres, had it surveyed, and made their final report to the Circuit Court March 29, 1827. George W. Rhodes made a plot of it. S. C. Owens, Garrett M. Hensley, DI. R. Swearington, and john Smith were authorized to sell the lots. This was done July 9, 10 and 11, 1827, the lots being sold partly on time. The cash pay- ments amounted to 337957. The General Assembly added eighty acres in 1831, and fif- teen additions of two hundred and forty acres each soon afterwards. A court house and jail were built and occupied as soon as possible. About sixty persons bought lots and the work of building a town was begun. In 1831 the Santa Fe trade began, and a landing was established at Blue Mills, six miles away. The goods had to be brought through the moun- tains to Pittsburgh by wagon. From Pitts- burgh to Independence they were carried by boat. At Independence they were landed, and the wagons started out on their long eight hun pro was mai I inte but odi1 A1 r sev aw 185 dei Hit the by TC' CO 1'1'1I Tl tO' th H1 tl ga at ei Sf o d I tl s d S 1. i a, however, no provis- nes, Arap- Catlng and ever out of chibited by soN, '15, if jackson itil 1840 it the West. avid Ward County to Jn County. sixty acres, inal report 7.

Several people engaged in the manufacture of wagons and harness. From 1831 to 1834 the Mormon troubles interfered with the prosperity of the town, but it was not long until the Baptists, Meth- odists, and Presbyterians organized churches. A number of lodges were organized in 1846. The business of Independence suffered a severe blow when the flood of 1844 washed away the landing at Wayne City. As late as 1850 mails were dispatched from Indepen- dence to Santa Fe and Salt Lake. Independence was the scene of several con- flicts during the Civil War. It was raided by the Union cavalry in 1861, and was occupied by Confederate troopers in 1862. In 1867 churches were rebuilt and schools reestablished. Soon after this some of the courts were removed to Kansas City, which materially checked the growth of the town. The town prospered even in spite of this, and to-day has a population of 13,000. CORA BENsoN, '15. Mi--.i,l..li WEST PORT The early settlers saw that the junction of the Kaw and Missouri rivers would make a fine place for a settlement. They knew from the natural advantages that it would be the gateway to the VVest. They did not stop ex- actly at the junction of the two rivers, how- ever, but went farther down and formed a settlement at Independence. In 1831 Rev. Isaac McC-oy took up a tract of government land four miles so-uth of In- dependence on the trail leading to Santa Fe. His son john built a store on his father's land the next year. The business prospered, and several others built stores. john McCoy then divided his tract of land into small farms and sold them. Westport was the result of this little settlement. It was built in 1833. Tradesmen on the trail saw an advantage in stopping here, as it was eighteen miles closer than the landing they had been in the habit of using. A Frenchman built a road from Westport to the river, and from then on Westport grew rapidly. Gutfitting stores, blacksmiths and wagon makers flocked to VVestport. Most of the business h-ouses were built along Mill creek, which ran through the center of the town. The first tavern was built by Mr. Yocum at Westport avenue and Mill street. Later Mr. McGee built a hotel at Westport and Penn, which he sold to jack,' Harris in 1847. This hotel, The Harris House, was' run by Har- ris until 1864. A tannery, a distillery, a corn mill, a sad- dlery, and a bakery, together with a postoffice and the outfitting stores, composed the greater part -of the town's business. Between 1855 and 1860 Wesport was at her height. More business was carried on at that time than at any time since. Thirteen stores were in operation. The first church was the Union Church, built where the VVestport Bank is now stand- ing. Four denominations, Methodists, Chris- tians, Baptists, and Presbyterians, raised eighteen hundred dollars by subscription for the erection of the church. The first school was built at Fortieth and Washington. The upper part was used for preachin'. This school was moved later to Biding and Boone. Mr. C. C. Huffaker was the first teacher. During the War business fell off and did not regain its footing until 1867. After 1867 Westport grew rapidly, and in 1899 became a part of Kansas City. W. ELL1soN LUTHER, '15. ,..L...i. ' WESTPORT LANDING When Westport was established, the prin- cipal steamboat landing in jackson County was at Blue Mills, six miles below Indepen- dence. The Westport merchants found this landing inconvenient, and so they had their freight brought ashore farther up the river. ,!,,.--S, ,tm f 'TA' exu- ,,,.,..!---- -ffr-mcrrtt sift it 2 y 24 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. Soon after this, J. C. McCoy had his stock of goods brought ashore in the woods above Chouteau's warehouse. In 1832 a regular landing was established where Grand avenue now reaches the river. This was the beginning of Westport Landing, iwhich afterward developed into HThe Town of Kansas. It would be difficult to conceive a less inviting spot for the building of a town. But this angle in the Missouri River was the best natural road to the West and the South- west, and it was the highest point to which goods for the great Santa Fe and plains trade could be taken by boat without increasing the cost of land transportation and encountering worse roads. This Missouri River landing was part of a 256-acre tract owned by a Frenchman, Prud- homme. Several residents of Jackson County, who had observed the tendency of trade to center at the landing, conceived the plan of founding a town on the Prudhomme estate. VV hen the sale was held, the company bought the land for 34,220 This was the original site of Kansas City. I There were many different opinions about the prospects of the new town. Independence and Westport nicknamed it Westport Land- ing, and so it became generally kn-own. Sen- ator Benton remarked that it was destined to become the greatest commercial center west of St. Louis. The great portion of the early trade of the town was similar to that of all frontier towns, and was carried on chiefly with the Indians, the employees of the mountain traders, and the Mackinaw boatmen. As early as 1840, it was not uncommon on the arrival of Macki- naw boats to see as many as three or four hundred men on the levee, all buying more or less from the traders. The Indian trade con- tinued to flourish at VVestport Landing Cnarned The Town of Kansas in 18395, and at Independence, until 1843, at which time it was temporarily suppressed by order of Gen- eral Santa Anna. josEPH1NE HELLMAN, 'l5. SHAWNEE MISSION, KANSAS VVithin three and one-half miles southwest of NVestport High School there is one of the most historic spots of the Middle West. In 1839 Rev. Thomas johnson with his wife and family left his Ohio home to come to the Shawnee Indians as a missionary. I By l829 he had received appropriations from the Methodist church and a land grant of 2,24-O acres from the government, the total value -of both amounting to nearly f5lO0,000. with tho money he bout tt school, dormitory, chapel, dining room, class rooms, and manual training rooms, as well as a substantial home for himself. The best of material was brought fr-om St. Louis, and the buildings are in ex- cellent shape today. Settlers came here and established homes. The school and mission had nearly a hundred pupils. These Indian boys and girls, and even men and women, were taught to sew, spin, cook, and do carpenter work. They were also taught to love and revere God. The town, for such it was now, thriyed, and a store and a postoffice were established. For many years quiet and peace reigned. The children of the pale face and those of the red man went in and out as one family, all under the wise guidance of Rev. Johnson. A few years of this peaceful life and all was changed. Rev. ,Iohnson took a decided stand for slavery. The Mission became a meeting place for Southern sympathizers. It was only natural then that the territo-rial legislature decided to mo-ve its capital to the Mission. They occupied the building that served as dor- mitory. This building housed two governors. The grandfather of ex-Governor Hadley of Missouri taught here for some time. The legislature passed laws so stringent that they called forth a wave of indignation from the aboliti-onists. Spirit ran high, and in 1865 Rev. Johnson- was wantonly shot down in his doorway. He was buried in the little grave- yard that is situated in the southeast corner of the Mission grounds.

The Shawnee Indians were moved to the West, and the home that had known them so long knew them no more. The property had passed into other hands. Rev. Johnson willed the property to his son, William Johnson, who is still living there. He now owns about two hundred acres of this rich land. There are three of the original buildings, now three-quarters of a century old. The one in which the legislature met is now the home of a dairyman and is in Hne repair. The one across the street on the southwest corner, where the Indians were taught to wor- ship, and where many a dusky bride has been led to the altar, is now a dance hall. William johnson, the son of the founder, remembers many a boyish prank that he and his Indian comrades played there. CHAS. K.

Do you see them ?,' Alice cried as I took up my field gl-HSSCS and gazed at five little specks moving along on the peak of a snow-capped mountain, three thou- sand feet above us. I have never seen a more beautiful sight than those mountains, with the sun shining so brightly on their snow peaks that you could hardly look at them, although the sun had not yet reached down into the valley. Early as it was, it bade fair to be a beautiful spring day. We were sitting o-ut on the veranda of the hotel at Engelburg, Switzerland, gazing up- ward at the lofty mountains that completely surr-ounded this little green valley. How strange it seemed to sit there in our summer clothes and watch those people tramp through the snow. There were five of those specks: one was Alice's father, one, her brother 5 another, a friend of her father'sg and the other two, guides. I, like them, was an American trav- eler. I had known these people when a boy, but had not seen them for years, until I came across them at this out of the way place. Yes, I see them now, I said, and we sat there all the morning, talking and looking at them, and wondering why any one would risk his life just to say he had climbed to the top of that snow-capped mountain. It came around to lunch time, and as the party was hidden for the present, we went in to lunch. We were gone perhaps three-quar- ters of an hour. When we came out to the veranda again, we could still see them, but there were only four black specks, and they had stopped moving. Alice shuddered. Then, I wonder if one of them has-has slipped and-H 'KNO l I said. HI donlt think so. They have probably stopped for lunch, and one of the guides has gone to look for wood. But there is no wood up there! That's right, I had to admitf' but we will wait and see what happensf' We waited all afternoon, but they didn't move from that place. It looked as if they were making some sort of a snow ho-use for protection. I spent an anxious night wonder- ing what could have happened to them. When I came down in the morning, Alice was already on the veranda. The specks had not moved. The girl was sobbing softly, and as I came up behind her, I could hear her say, What can I do? What can I do? Here she was two thousand miles fr-om home, and with her father and brother up on that mountain, perhaps one of them over a precipice. There is only one thing to dof' I said as bravely as I could. I will hire two guides and go up and get them. Stay here, but don't worry. I will have them back safe and sound in no timef' No! she almost shrieked, I can't do that! I must go with you! I tried to persuade her not to do it, to think of the dangers, but she would go. They said we made a record in getting the material ready for a trip of that kind. The tw-o guides secured a carriage to take us to the timber line, where there was one lone house, the last sign of civilization. It was dusk when we got there, so we stopped for the night. After an absolutely sleepless night on the part of Alice and myself, we started out at four in the morning. Wfe went in single file, one guide leading, and the other bringing up the rear. A good, stout rope connected us, be- cause- it would have been death to risk it with- out one., as we often walked just a foot or so away from a precipice, where if one had slipped, he would have fallen hundreds of feet.

THE WESTPGRT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. 27 It was a terrible struggle, dragging one numb foot after the other. Besides, there was the mental anguish. At n-oon we stopped just long enough to eat a bite, and then we plodded on. I was almost exhausted, but I could not help thinking what Alicels suffering must be compared to mine. It began to get dusk, and yet we had not seen a sign of any living creature. We had given up hope of finding them that night, and were looking for a sheltered spot in which to rest until mo-rning. The guide in fr-ont suggested that we go to the lea side of a peak a short way ahead of us. As we rounded the peak, we saw four men coming toward us. When our party got close enough to see that they wcre all there but one guide, Alice fainted. The other party came up before we had re- vived her. It does my heart go-od to think of the rejoicing of those few minutes. Alice's brother said they had been walking along a broad flat space without the use of the rope. The guide who was carrying the rope, decided he wanted to look over the precipice, so he lay do-wn and squirmed out to the edge. just as he reached the edge, there was a crack like a revolver sho-t, for a huge piece of ice had chipped off, carrying with it the guide and the rope. It was terrible to see the guide fall, but what were the others to do? They had no rope. They had waited two days in hope of a rescue party, but their provisions were almo-st gone. They had not come very far when they met us. We made ourselves as comfortable as pos- sible for the night. The next morning Alice, her father, brother, and her father's friend started down with our two guides, while the other guide and myself set out to see if we could secure the body -of the man who had been lost.

Kathrina Norton, a Freshman, having a conventional design very neatly and carefully drawn, won third honorable mention. Pearl Moore's design was very good and quite original, with a kewpie laughingly wink- ing at the observer, with Herald in the background in representation of the sun. Lucile North's was a girl dreamily looking off to sea. Albert XVelch's shows a girl standing bv a hammock, with the trees touching overhead in a sort of arbor. Other contestants for the HERALD cover were Dorothy Kendall, Maud Meade, Sophia Bruckmiller, Gladys Austin, Marian Green, Flora Oliver, Charlotte Nash, Evelyn Ross, Helen Sarver, and Nadyne Meyers. All of these covers are very worthy of mention. SECOND YEAR CHARcoAL WORK Maurine Perkins's charcoal work shows great talent. Her mask of Lincoln brings out his character in a realistic way. Her Dona- tellols Laughing Boy is very expressive and proves that a great deal of thought and painstaking care has been spent on it. Dorothy Kendall has a very pretty Head of Madonnal' framed and in Ro-om 76. She also shows excellent talent, though in a softer and more delicate way than Miss Perkins. Marian Green's charcoal drawing of Per- seus is very good, and there was much hard study on her part to get the effect. Ruby Crary, the winner of the HERALD cover, drew a very good head of Apollo. Margaret Meriwether's drawing of Diana is also worthy of praise. F1RsT YEAR PERSPECTIVE WoR1c The Hrst year work is mostly perspective and those who have done excellent work dur- ing the whole year are Frances Stark, Kath- rina Norton, Mary Elizabeth Lewis, and Lila Merrick.

THE WORK IN ROOM 78 The classes of Room 78 have had an excep- tionally interesting year, especially the De- sign classes, of which I am a member. Be- sides the usual HERALD cover contest, the De- sign girls tried for a prize of five dollars given by Mrs. W. B. Thayer. The design was to be taken from an Indian rug or blanket in the American and Indian Room of the Fine Arts Institute. The prize was awarded to Marga- ret Brackett for a rug design, the design be- coming the property -of the donor of the prize. Honorable mention was received by Lucille Rockwell and Hazel Cope. There were a great many excellent designs submitted and a great deal of good, hard work was spent on them. This year the prize for the HERALD cover goes to Ruby Loraine Crary and hon- orable mention to Lucille Ro-ckwell, Helen Combs, and Kathrina Norton. The third year work is begun by drawing flowers and leaves, which are used in designs throughout the year. From these the Howerf compositions, surface designs, etc., are made. Then there are studies in light and darkf' print designs, and especially the color schemes. These are taken from birds, butterHies, and old Japanese prints, taking care to get the right amount of each color. They are then applied to a print design, still keeping the amounts of color as in the model. Next the colors are reversed in the same print design. The color schemes are also applied t-o a copied and an original dress. The third year ends with practical designs for wall paper, china, book covers, and cretonnes. In Room 78 we also have some first year or free-hand drawing classes. In this work the pencil is used as the medium. Lettering is taken up at the first of the year, followed by a very complete course in perspective. In the perspective work houses seen from the win- dows and interior and exterior views are drawn. The model and object drawing is next taken up, in which pCrf6C'E OL1'f1i11CS HTC worked for, then lights and darks are studied. These classes have an introduction to color. The second year pupils use charcoal as their medium. This work is a. continuation of the model and object drawing, but on a more ad- vanced scale. In this year some work in flower drawing is done as an introduction to design. The elements of color are learned and applied to the designs. And last, but not least, is the fourth year, or Arts and Crafts. It is in this work that the pupil app-lies all that he has learned in his previous years of drawing. Perhaps the pro- cesses of stenciling will give an idea of how the previous work is applied. First, the draw- ing must be made from the natural flower, then the article to be stenciled must be decided upon. Next an appropriate design is made from the flower drawing. It is then made into a pattern and is cut into a stencil. The color scheme is then decided upon and the stencil applied to the material. This process may in a measure be applied to everything made by the Arts and Crafts classes, for all the designs are original. The cases contain many ine pieces of work done in the fourth year. There are stenciled scarfs, centerpieces, sofa pillows, cut leather purses, baskets, and wood carving. VVhen one sees all these beau- tiful pieces of handiwork done in the fourth year, it seems a great pity that pupils drop out after their first year-the foundation year. IRA MAY P1NRERToN, 'l6. -. ROOM 77 One of the most interesting features of the Art department this year is the oil painting class. The members of this enthusiastic class have accomplished some really excellent things. The fact that a canvas by Helen Forney, one of its members, was accepted to be hung in the recent exhibition of paintings by Kan- sas City artists at the Fine Arts Institute, is one proof of its success.

Among others who best represent the oil painting class are Josephine McColgin, joseph Toffee, Gladys Livesay, and Mary Martin, al- though Ruth Underwood, Edna Lemmon, and Estelle Stone, with less experience, are not far behind. In additi-on to the oil painting, Loraine Makimson, Mary Klapmeyer, Cordelia Lee, Muriel Fletcher, and Eleanor Smith have pro- duced some very creditable examples of water- color. Jane Beaumont, Margaret Armstrong, and Marie Ettwein have divided their time be- tween painting and drawing from life. Mildred Jeffers, Geraldine Shepard, and Edith Hardy have made some unusually good charcoal drawings from the cast, their progl ress being evident in the improvement -of their last drawings over earlier ones. Numerous examples of perspective, original designs, and drawing from o-bjects bear wit- ness o.f the industry of the Hrst year class. From many excellent students in this class we find Pauline Brelsford, Edith Hibbard, Bere- nice Fowler, Williamette Loohey, Helen Rick- er, and Loraine Swett. SOME OF OUR KANSAS CITY ' ARTISTS In the Art Institute not long ago there was a rare collection of studies from nature painted by Mrs. Brumsback. Did you ever see a sun- set when the very sky seemed aiireg the water into which it was reflected of the same golden hue, only softened and toned down by the blue of the water? Such is the painting of a sun- set by our artist. VVe may call her ours, I think, for she is Kansas City's best. Mrs. Brumsback paints pictures of many kinds. In this exhibit there were several snow scenes, one of which was called The Morning Walk.,' Passing on to others, how many of us, I wonder, ever stopped to- think how much color there is in a river? In her paintings of the Blue River this thought is brought very clear- ly before the mind. I have yet to tell you of my faVOfitC, which you may compare and contrast with the others. Place yourself at the foot of a hill, or per- haps up a little way, and look with me. First we see a mass of flowers showing forth in all their beauty. On the left side there is a large tree, which casts a cool, refreshing shadow on the little roadway leading underneath it. The road has the appearance of not having been used recently. Glance upward and we behold a meadow, stretching over the hill rising from the road. At the top there are a. few build- ings, which are not prominent, yet tend to take away the loneliness. These little houses are surrounded by the meadow. At a later exhibit, for at the Art Institute the exhibitions are changed frequently, a pict- ure of Mrs. Brumsback's won a prize. It was one of a large boat in a bay, the title of which was The Green Boatf, At this 'ex- hibit there were represented other Kansas City students in wh-om you may be interested. Among these were Robert E. Ball, Jr., whose picture entitled 4'The Pont Neuf, Paris, won a prize, R. L. Lambdin, who showed that even in the commonest things there is beauty, in his picture 'KRailroad Yardsgl' and many other students. But perhaps you know little of these people and say you are not interested in the works of people you have never heard of. Then let us mention pictures painted by people you know better. Vlfaldo Wallis, a former student of Wesstpoirt, is represented there by his picture The Stone Quarryf' Miss Boyd, a teacher of art here in our own school, has several paintings there, among which is Mission Hills Quarry. Then also the teach- er of art at our Missouri University, John S. Ankenney, is represented by several paint- ings, one of which is '4VVhen All the VVorld is Blue and Goldfl Are you not now inter- ested in Kansas City's best Art Gallery?

The work of the club has been largely in preparation for the Spring Musical Festival and Contest held annually by the four high schools of Kansas City. The solo parts of the girls' cantata for this occasion, The Garden of Flowers, were sung by members of the four clubs.

You girls of VVestport who can warble, or even think you can, if you expect to be in school next year, come out for the Glee Club. There will be but half of the present club left next year, and the success of Westpsolrt's mu- sical future depends upon you! ELSIE CORNELL, '15, BOYS' GLEE CLUB Since the Glee Club has become a regu- lar class, the enrollment has been out of the ordinary, the number finally reaching twenty. It is probable, however, that a great deal more could have been done if the club had been as large at the beginning of the year as when the second term started. The contest music and the cantata have consumed a great deal of time, since the se- lections this year were out of the ordinary in point of diliiculty, This necessitated a good deal of singing with the Girls' Glee Club. Both clubs have enjoyed being together, and the standard of the boys' club has been raised by the superior quality of the girls' voices. Eugene Ashe was the successful contestant for an important solo part in the Concert of May 7th. , MEMBERS.

The Princi- pals and musical adherents are greatly en- couraged at the interest manifested by the people o-f Kansas City. The audience was larger than last year and it was a more en- thusiastic audience. Three judges: Mrs. Ernst Pihlblad, Miss Mildred Rosberg, and Mr. Geo. H. Ryden, were secured from Lindsborg, Kansas, the home of the Mes- siah.', In the afternoon each of the high schools contested for the three cups-one fOr the Girls' number, one for the Boys' number, and -one for the Mixed number. The de- cision of the judges was not announced until after the evening performance, because- well-it was feared that the music of the evening might not be harmonious. F-ew of the contestants of the afternoon took much interest in the performance of the evening, because each was so eager to be called forward to get the cup. VVe did notice, however, that the fair sex were ar- rayed in white, while the boys wore choke me collars and twenty-hve for a quarter E. B. T. white bow ties. The contest was a success, even if we did not get a first. Northeast won the Kansas City Musical Club cup for the Girls' num- ber. Westport was second. Northeast also won the Shubert cup for the Boys' number. Central was second. Central won the Carl Hoffman cup for the Mixed number. VVest- port was second. l L i i l BOYS' GLEE CLUB Qi!

VVest- THE ORcHEsrRA THE ORCHESTRA Under the instruction of our able and faith- ful director, Mrs. Hedges, the Orchestra has accomplished exceptional work this year. We have greatly increased both in numbers and variety of instruments. More interest is be- ing manifested in the Orchestra than ever be- fore. The students of VVestport are begin- ning to realize the benefits derived from orchestra practice and also that they receive a credit for the year's work. This year we were unable to have a whole assembly program, but we did furnish a few patriotic numbers at the assembly given on George VVashington's birthday. VVe have also rendered the musical selections for the Christ- mas, German, and Senior plays, and again for the Commencement exercises. In regard to our musical numbers, we will say that we have a large and varied repertoire, including selections from several of the operas, and also many other pleasing numbers. The school should be proud of the Work done by the members of the Orchestra and also of the interest shown by Mr. Sam Gago- da, violinist, and Mr. Leon Hinkle, cellist, formerly students of Westport, who often return for rehearsals. The members have been aided and inspired to do their best and feel that their progress is due to the guidance and constant leadership of Mrs. Hedges. MoR'roN DE,NE.BliIM, ,l5.

Mr. Irion was appointed one of the tw-o State High School Inspectors of Missouri, and in January left us to fill this ofhce. He likes his new position very much. Several of the departments have been in- creased by the addition of new teachers. Miss Chace, our new Drawing teacher, graduated from Westport in 1910. During her Junior and Senior years at Westport, she was a mem- ber of the HERALD Staff. From Westport she went to Cincinnati, Ohio, where she took the Teacherys Art course, a four year course, in three years. Last year she was Supervisor of Drawing and Sewing at Miamisburg, Ohio, a suburb of Dayton. She returned to West- port to teach in the fall of 1914. Mr. Hill, our new Physics teacher, gradu- ated from Oberlin in 1902. He then taught Physics and Mathematics for two years in Jamestown, New York. From 1904 to 190'7 he taught Mathematics in Oberlin Academy. From 1908 to 1909 he studied at Harvard. From 1909 to 1912 he taught Mathematics in Oberlin Academy again. He was Secretary A. WILCL of Oberlin Academy from 1912 to 1914. He studied at Chicago in 1914, and came to VVest- port in the fall of 1914. Miss Lilly has taken Miss Leitch's place, who is now teaching English. Miss Lilly graduated from the University of Missouri in 1914, and was the head of the History De- partment in the Training School at Columbia. Mr. Roberts is a new member of the History Department. He graduated from the Uni- versity of Illinois in 1910. He studied at the University of Chicago from 1911 to 1913. Last year he taught in the Princeton, Illinois, High School, and came to Wfestport last fall. Mr. Appelboo-m has taken Mr. Irionys place in German and Mathematics. He has traveled extensively, especially in India and China, and has taught Mathematics in the Naval Academy in Holland. Mr. Appelboom can speak seven languages fluently. Because of these oppor- tunities he is exceedingly well equipped to fill this position. iii.,- 1 ASSEMBLIES VVell, how have you liked them this year? The assemblies, we mean.

You know it isnlt an easy matter to End entertainment for 1,804 students, that will be instructive as well as interesting. And another thing, did you ever notice that several of the assemblies were earlier in the day than in previous years? Well, do you know why? The Upopulationu of Westport has grown so rapidly that the seating capacity of the auditorium is not sufficient. Accord- ingly, Mr. Shouse has called us together when about one-sixth of us were taking our beauty sleep. There is always a reward for virtue, you know. So, considering everything, don't be too harsh in your criticism. WILL POWER-DAVE PORTER On October 19th, Mr. Porter, whom we all know as an excellent speaker, especially to boys, gave us a fine talk on the value of will power. He described it rightly as the basis of all true character. We always give Mr. Porter a hearty reception, for we feel that he is a real friend. DR. GAINES, OF AGNES SCOTT On November 9th, we were addressed by Dr. Gaines, who is President of Agnes Scott College of Atlanta, Georgia, on the value of a college education. His talk, based on his experience as a college president, was ex- tremely interesting to all of us, as the college which he heads is one of the largest in the South. Dr. Gaines is the first Southern college president whom we of VVestport have had the pleasure of hearing. ' DR. BURTON, OF SMITH Of all the addresses to which the students of VV'estport High School have had the honor for otherwisej to be the audience, probably the very finest from all points of view, was that of Dr. Burton Smith, President of Smith College, on November 16th. A Hnished orator of the modern type, with a strong personality, and a, powerful subject, he held our interest and attention for over an hour, and that is the very highest praise that an orator who speaks at Westport can ever hope t-o attain. The Kind of Life to Live has been discussed in every possible phase and we thought from every possible point of view, but Dr. Burton has a different one, more in sympathy with our own and more practical in every respect. MISSOURI DAY We students of VVestport think we know a great deal about our State University. If we donlt, it isn't the fault of its president, its brass band, or its alumni, for they all did their best to impress upon us the undeniable fact that we all ought to go to Missouri Uni- versity. If we weren't entirely convinced by President I-Iillfs speech on November Z'Uth, there certainly wasn't any doubt in our minds after we heard that brass band. We expressed our opinion on the subject, later, in the lower corridor, by a fine exhibition of our lung power and yelling apparatus. Our interest in Missouri was increased by a program given on December 24th by Alumni of Missouri. Harry Poindexter, a member of the Westport Class of l9'll, gave the opening address, which was followed by several songs by a men's quartet. Miss Mary Robertson gave us a short sketch of University life from a girl's standpoint. The program ended with stereopticon views of the University, explained by Mr. Leland Hazard. l..-,-.Yl-.1........ DEBATE BOOSTER Are you going to try out for the debate? Don't be a piker! Here's a chance to show your school spirit! Help Westport win! These remarks and others equally stirring delivered by Mr. Humphrey, awakened an un- usual interest in the debate.

' THE RHODES SCHOLARSHIP On February 9th, W. QI. Bland, a Cecil Rhodes student, explained the Rhodes Scholar- shipiand described the students' life at Ox- ford. His presentation of his subject was ex- tremely vivid. VVe all understand the signifi- cance of Cecil Rhodes' bequest, and appreciate his true greatness, as never before. WE WANT SOME MORE Did you know that we have some mighty talented people in Westport, in fact that there are a few geniuses? At least did you know it before Miss Josephine Avery and Mr. Ewing Avery, assisted by Miss Cranston, Mr. Bo-gus- lawski and Mr. Cranston, gave us one of the mo-st delightful programmes we have had this year? Here's hoping the other talented students forget their bashfulness and come out and show what they can do. CHRISTMAS PLAY Last December, to the considerable list of notable plays which Westport has to her credit, was added the most ambitious of all, The Wolf of Gubbio. The most confident of us questioned the advisability ,of attempting a play that the professional stage had side- stepped, but the result was a real triumph. To our stage setting was added a beautiful drop curtain to represent the town of Cvubbio, a village in Northern Italy. Schultz of Chi- cago furnished costumes that were both elabor- ate and correct. Westport furnished the talent for the cast of forty players. The drama is written about a Franciscan monk of the fourteenth century, Francis of Assisi. The monkis love of all nature necessi- tated the creation of an animal part-The Wolf, and these two were dramatically the leading roles. The leading woman, Assunta, was taken by Naomi Lowe, who had made her successful debut before, so the delicate, yet strong por- trayal of A Poor Woman, was no surprise to us. The difficulty of Assunta was the few words and considerable 'pantomime of the part. Miss Lowe left nothing to be desired. A truly artistic piece was Miss Kidson's St. Francis-in nature, voice, feature and bear- ing, in conception and projection, she was the saintly priest who dominated all elements and made her conquer all-wolves, little and big, of forest and town. Dundas Ross had the uncertainty of experi- ment in his hands. In spite of a somewhat grotesque costume, he met the situation with sincerity and force. An animal personation at best is a questionable essay of art, and that Mr. Ross held us with the grip of fascinated interest is high praise, which is his due. He was the Wolf as nearly as physical limitations could realize it. Juniper and Leo, two priests, taken by Mr. Bird and Mr. Ritzen, needed no disguise of cloak or wig to get the parts across. Old, kindly, and superstitious, they played up to the traditions of the cowl which they wore with dignity. Lucia was charming and vivacious in Miss Lyman. N icolo, chief man of the village, inn keeper, selfish and hard, was well played by Mr. Waltner. The baker in Mr. Johnson, the potter in Mr. Enns, the furrier in Mr. Rice, the furrier's wife in Miss Chambiliss, the dyer in Mr. Clary, the dyeris wife in Miss Sawyer-all submerged themselves in their parts as they play demanded. Old Lucrezia, acted by Miss Hollebaugh, was one of the finest pieces of impersonation of the evening. Misses Miller and Oliver, playing the children Bimbo and Bimba, were decided hits. Grillo and Vecchio-ugh-one wouldn't care to meet 'em on any highway, much less among mountains such as sur- rounded Gubbio.

But what shall be said of the three Dryads, Miss Robertson, Miss llvelsh, and Miss Hebe- ler, cach graceful, charming, in strange, weird parts-the spirits of trees? Well, it was a beautiful scene. Some one said, No matter what happens now, l have my moneys worth. The chorus and supers in ensemble and in- dividually added inuch to the general effect. The Christmas play of 1914 was a worthy event, conceived in the spirit of the season, and carried out to the delight of all who heard it. CAST QF CHARACTERS XVolf ...................,.............

His ability as an educator was shown by his Work among the local schools. He came to Kansas City in 1882, and continued his educational work here. He was made principal of the Martin, VVebster, and Lathrop schools, successively. As a result of his excellent work he was made assistant superintendent of schools in 1899. He served in this capacity until his death, January 15, 1915. Mr. Tharpe was an honest and upright man, a gentleman of enviable character. He was noted for his frankness and for his evenness of temper. His plans, once decided upon, were always carried out thoroughly and well. He was cheerful, optimistic, and thoughtful of others at all times. His faithful and con- scientious elforts as a public servant, coupled with the virtues of his private life, endeared him to all his associates and insured him a place among our great educational workers, alongside of the other pioneers who have made our Kansas City public school system the wonderfully efficient organization that it is at the present time. F114-up-Q-QA, f 1 l.,.--Tit . 42 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. K THE HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS' COUNCIL The High School Girls, Council, under the control of the Y. W. C. A., is composed of four groups, one from each of the high schools of the city. The 'Westport group, consisting of about fifty of VVestport's representative girls, met every other Monday at the Y. W. C. A. building. The meetings were carried on chieliy by the officers: Mary Swofford, Margaret Shackelford, Charlotte Kirshner, and Gertrude Leslie. Such subjects as True Hospitality, True Loyalty, and The Cause and Cure o-f the Blues were taken up in the different meet- ings. Printed questions were passed out and each girl felt free to express her own ideas on every subject. With the advice of the Council Adviser, Miss Markham, and the Group Advisers, Miss Holmes and Miss Scar- rit, these subjects were helpfully discussed. The mottoes of the Council are To ease the burden of the worldy' and To live pure, speak truth, right wrong, follow the King, else wherefore born P Its aim is to raise the standards of the high school girl so that she will sometimes think of other things besides picture shows and boys Cboth of which are all right as an occasional dose, but not good as a steady dietj. The High School Girls, Council has done a good work and it is hav- ing a real effect upon the high schools of the city. Next year the Council hopes to admit more girls and to enlarge its work. But it needs the help of every girl in the school who stands for the highest things in life. DR. FISHER According to the usual custom, the boys of Wfestport had their annual Clean Speech, Clean Sport, and Clean Living meeting this spring. On February l5th, Dr. Geo. Fisher, an exceptionally strong speaker, gave 3 fme talk, and the effect o-n the boys could plainly be seen. THE FRIENDSHIP CAMPAIGN On February 23d, 24th and 25th, the boys of the high schools of Kansas -City had a Series of three meetings, such as had never been held before in Kansas City. Ea.ch school had its own speaker, and Westport got the strongest and best of the four, David R. Porter. There were two meetings at the Westport Baptist Church in the afternoon. Porter conducted a series of private interviews with the boys after each of these meetings. On February 25th came the big mass meeting at the Y. M. C. A. gym in which Porter and H. L. Heinz- man delivered two inspiring addresses. THE HIGH SCHOOL CLUB This year has been a mo-st successful one for the High School Club. Each of the four high schools have more than doubled their weekly attendance, and the membership in- cludes more of the leaders of the schools than ever before, which is saying a great deal. The club experienced a boom about the middle of the year, which continued until the fmalban- quet, held o-n Monday, April 19th. The meetings have been especially interest- ing throughout the year. Not only have we had good after-dinner speakers, but the dis- cussions have been both instructive and enter- taining. We all hope to have Mr. Foster again next year for our adviser. -.- T GIRLS' ASSEMBLY On February 4th a Girls' Assembly was called to arouse interest in the Girls' Debate. Only eight girls out of the ten hundred and forty-one had been working on the debate, but after some stirring speeches made by these loyal eight, many were awakened to their sense of duty towards the school, and at the tryout the following week twenty-six girls appeared.

The subject under considera- tion was the Single' Tax question, Westport supported the afhrmative. john Tracey opened the argument with a sweeping denunciation of our abominable pres- ent taxing system. His speech was very strong and convincing. Charles Cleeton, speaking first on the negative, showed the injustice and impracticability of the Single Tax. His whirlwind delivery added greatly to his effect- iveness. Clyde Emery explained the pro- posed reform, suggested a plan for its appli- cation, and proved its absolute justice. Carl Trieb violently assailed the Single Tax, de- claring that it would only make present bad conditions worse. The speech of Noel Boul- ware, the captain of the team, was the feature of the debate. In glowing terms he proved that the Single Tax would cause the better'- ment of our people, economically, politically socially, and morally. john Gaylord, conclud- ing for Manual, proposed a change to the in-- come tax, instead of to the land tax. ! In rebuttal our boys seemed to sweep every- thing before them, speaking textemporane- ously to a great extent, they punctured argu- ment after argument, and hammered home point after point. But the judges couldn't get over Manual's gestures and bombastic style, so the decision was awarded to them. There was no hard feeling on the part of Vtfestport, only disap- pointment. And even this seemed a shade less keen after a wonderful banquet, given by the Northeast domestic science department, and a glorious swim in Northeast's fine new pool. The question this year was a deep one, too deep to be grasped without careful study. Perhaps this explains our defeat, but let us not be soreheadsl Rather, let us brace up and next year take a fall out of the other schools. We have it in us, and Westport should certainly hold that Amherst cup, which is the emblem of championship in inter-scho- lastic debate. ... WESTPORT-NORTHEAST DEBATE The Westport negative debating team met the Northeast affirmative team at Central High School. Mr. Holmes announced the question, Single Tax, and then announced the speakers, Newland Carter, Herbert Chapman, and George Sibley, representing Northeast, and ,lohn Powell, Hugh Thompson, and Ma- rion Waltner, representing Westport. Carter 'fkicked off for Northeast, but lost his wind, and failed to follow up. The Cen- tral pulmotor was applied, however, and Car- ter came back. He stated Cnot arguedj that our present system of taxation is unjustg that WY 1 Q Q W W ,. ,, 4,1 , fx f I , ' , , M 5 gf , fi f W ff 1 ' , f I , fix , , ,, fa, ' i f , I ' , ff 'f , I fy fb Boys' DEBATING SQUAD it affords an opportunity for the evasion of taxes, that it permits double taxation, and that it penalizes industry. Carter's break-down seemed to augur well for Westport. Powell, the first Westport speaker, in a steady, co-nvincing argument, proved that our present system is faulty only in application, that this evil can be remedied 3 and that even if the fault could not be remedied, the present system is superior to Single Tax. It looked like a Westport walk-away. Chapman made a fair speech for Northeast, expanding upon the theory of Single Tax, but failed to prove his arguments. Thompson, in a simple, matter-of-fact man- ner, showed that,Single Tax must fail because it permits one class to vote a tax which is to be paid by another class, and because it would fail to provide sufficient funds for govern- ment. Sibley, a short boy with a big voice and lit- tle breeches, filled his eight minutes with state- ments on his own authority that Single Tax is workable. He was the best speaker for Northeast. The best debating of the contest was per- He proved that formed by Marion VValtner. Single Tax is unjust, that it would exempt the greater part of wealth, that such an ex- emption would overburden the farmer, and that Single Tax would bring about a great confiscation of pr-operty and a great financial panic. It should be placed to Waltner's cred- it that he performed the exceptional feat of the morning by giving his who-le speech with- out pause or manuscript. Throughout the debate, rebuttals and all, our boys insist that Northeast failed to cite the authority for their statements-that they introduced statement after statement without any authoritative backing. Our team, on the other hand, built up their argument carefully step by step. The rebuttal speeches of West- po-rt were particularly strong. Westport lost four to one, but we are proud of our boys because of their originality.

Vtfe pre- dict for them a more satisfactory decision in their college debates. GIRLS' DEBATE Subject: Resolved, that the Massachusetts ball-ot law should be adopted in Missouri. For the first time in the history of Kansas City High Schools we have had a Girl's Debate. The feeling has run high among the girls that it was unfair for boys to be allowed to rep- resent the school, while girls could not. A great deal of interest was taken by the girls, as fully twenty-six tried out. Twelve of these were first chosen, and then the num- ber was reduced to eight. These girls worked for six weeks investigating and comparing the laws of the two states and compiling facts and arguments. After speeches had been memor- ized and practiced, our girls went to North- east and Central to meet their opponents. AT NoRTHEas'r Beulah Limpus, Elsie Cornell, Frances Dickson and Naomi Lowe were warmly re- ceived at Northeast, where they carried off the honors in a 5-O decision. Miss Limpus showed that the ballot law of Missouri needed reform, and that the Massa- chusetts ballot was particularly advantageous in being a secret ballot. Miss Cornell proved that the Massachusetts ballot made the party the servant of the people, and Miss Dickson showed that the ballot was constructive, and had been proved a success. The opposing Manual team was undoubted- ly a strong one, and was well prepared. How- ever, Vtfestport was particularly fortunate in her representatives, as a great per cent of their superiority was determined by their delivery. Miss Limpus was eloquent and or- GIRLS, DEBATING SQUAD Xfffx fi , ,.

Although their opponents' arguments were good, they scarcely reached the judges. Wfe feel proud of our one winning team. I Ar CENTRAL Margaret McElin, Edna McCaull, josephine McColgin, and Rose Schwarz went to Central to debate the Northeast affirmative. North- east was ably represented by Mary Redmond, Lucille Turner, and Frankie Thompson. In the set speeches the two schools were evenly matched. Howevler, Westplofrt was more easily followed, as the arguments were put plainly before the audience and definitely clinched. In our last speech the voting ma- chine was introduced as a substitute. QRe- member this. It foreshadows the end.j In rebuttal five speeches were given, with Westport much in the lead. Then Northeast put forth her best speaker, Mary Redmond. Miss Redmond read many clippings concern- ing the voting machine frauds in Terre Haute. She read of a judge who did all the voting, turning the levers until he had worn the skin from his fingers, after which he used a beer bottle opener. And, she added, as a climax, he may not have been in a fit condition to vote. Westport was crushed, and when a vote of the student body was taken it was about 3-2, in favor of Northeast. However, the judges' decision was 4-1 in favor of Northeast. However, since these girls were on the wrong side of the question, they did not feel properly discouraged. For the cause of Girls' Debate, it was a good thing that no school won. Ne-Xt year the excitement will be stu- pendous. As a conclusion, we, of the affirmative, are proud that we could win for .Westport, and we of the negative are not sorry to be martyrs to a cause, although we would gladly have brought the cup to Westport. THE SENIOR PLAY lVestport's achievements are always ones to be proud of and one of her latest is the play which was presented by the C1355 of '15 OH Saturday night, May Zd, in the High School Auditorium. HA Scrap of Paper gave splendid oppor- tunities to the cast-poor, unfortunate paper that is was, to be left in a dusty statue for several years, then dragged forth, only to be hidden so securely that only a woman's wit was able to discover it, then partly burned, thrown out of a window, picked up by a nat- uralist, wrapped about a little beast and stuck into the muzzle of a gun, found there by a lover who wrote a love letter on the back of it, delivered it to the wrong lady-fair, stolen from her by her brother, the naturalist, and finally returned to its rightful owner! There are few really dramatic scenes in the play. Naturalness is the necessary quality and it was the naturalness of the character which made it such a success. The scene between Suzanne and the Baron, probably the most dramatic in the play, was especially well han- dled. As Prosper Couramont, Albert Fish was pleasing and effective and was well supported by Frances Dickson in the role of Suzanne de Ruseville, who played her part with a grace- ful dignity, and a fine, even, unusual appre- ciation of her lines. In the character of Brisemouche, the nat- uralist, Hugh Thompson was all that could be asked. Who of us will ever forget that devil of a fellow Qto use his own wordsl with his cracked voice and his boast of bring- ing down one dog while hunting? Splendid work was done by john Tracey as the Baron de la Glaciere. He was strong in his lines and thorough in his characterization of the taciturn lord and master.

A SCRAP or PAPER Arlo Armstrong was a most dignified serv- ant and Alexander Maitland a mo-st undigni- fied one. In the part of Louise de la Glaciere, Mar- celine Phenneger was so pretty and charming that we could hardly blame the Baron for being jealous. Mathilde, as played by Beulah Limpus, was a jo-lly, light-hearted girl, a good deal of a Hirt, but nevertheless sincere. Helen Bard, as the housekeeper, had but few lines and two appearances, yet she made a never-to-be-forgotten impression with her clever imperso-nations. Ruth Underwood made' an excellent imper- sonation of the prim and easily shocked spin- ster and Olive Meyer was an impudent and pretty maid.

HIBBEN Un May 7th, Wlestport was honored by a visit from Prof. John G. Hibben, President of Princeton University. He spoke on the value of a college education. He told us that the only way to get a maximum output from our resources is to develop our minds thoroughly by a higher education. Prof. Hibben has a way of gripping an audience, and when he got through we felt that we knew him. 48 THE WESTPORI' HIGH SCHOOL HERALD.

The Round Table Club has devoted itself to a study of modern authors this year. The following authors have been discussed and studied: jack London, Harold Bell Wriglit, James M. Barrie, Geo. Barr McCutcheon, Irvin Cobb, Owen Johnson, William Allen White, Eugene Field, Brete Harte, George Bernard Shaw, and Mark Twain. Programs have been given with the idea of informing the mem- bers concerning these authors. A biography, a criticism, and one or more representative readings from the author were given. The club feels that something has been accom- plished, as we are given very little opportunity to learn of modern authors in the regular English co-urses. In addition to this, the Round Table Club has established a club -orchestra, which is unique among the clubs of Vllestport. This Orchestra, though small, is remarkably good. I The club has a boys' basket-ball team and a girls' 'basket-ball team. There are also repre- sentatives from this club in many of the school LASH activities: Miriam Nathan, Haseltine Clark, Ethel Shufflebotham, John O'Keefe, and Lyle Cooke, of the Crier Staff, Hugh Thompson, business manager for the HERAI.D, and joseph- ine McColgin on the HERLXIAD Staff, Beulah Limpus, Edna McCaull, Josephine McColgin, and Hugh Thompson on the Debating teams, and Bessie Kidson with the leading part in the Christmas play. Others taking parts in the Senior or Christmas plays were: Beulah Limpus, Ruth Underwood, Josephine Holle- baugh, Hattie Justice, Grace Hebeler, and Hugh Thompson. There are also representa- tives in the Glee Clubs, School Orchestra, and class basket-ball and track teams. In addition to our famous members and our splendid underclassmen, we have again had Miss Lash for adviser. After much contro- versy and pleading, we secured her for a second year. VVe who graduate were particu- larly pleased, the others are hoping for next year' JOSEPHINE MCCOLGIN, Secretary. WN 91 dm 34 FD 2 as Fw QE 0:5 :s FY' 1 C?

This year has been a successful one for the Clioniansi At the beginning of the year, we were seriously handicapped, as a large num- ber of our members had been lost by gradua- tion. But the true Clionian spirit took hold of things, and we have pulled through with colors flying. Our best program during the first term was the one at which Mr. Stigall gave us a talk on Friendship, We had a party at the home of Miss Helen Merkle on December 19th, and our spirit was at its height. Our second term has been just as successful, if not more so. During one of our meetings, We had an unexpected visit from our dignified friends, the Clay Club. On our meeting of April 9th, we invited the Round Table Club, and had a very fine meeting. We are well represented by our members, in the activities of the school.

We were very fortunate in having Mr. See as -our Adviser this year, and we sincerely appreciate his work.

At the beginning of the year the club con- cluded a study of The Drama, which had been begun during the last term of the previous year. At one of the meetings Mr. Foster gave us the history of The Drama, beginning with the old Athenian days of Greece and bringing it down to the present. Each of the programs was made up of papers on the four most interesting dramatists or dramas of a certain period. After we had completed our brief study of The Drama, we had a number of programs on poetry, dealing principally with the poets who are not met with in the regular high school course. This course of study proved very benehcial and was interesting both for the members who took part and for those who merely listened. That we might round-up the year in the best possible way, the programs of the latter part of the last term have consisted of papers on The Opera. These papers have been ex- ceptionally good.

In the high school course a great number of novels and essays are studied and discussed and even poetry is slightly touched upon, but The Drama and The Opera are usually un- known subjects to the school boy. It is such programs and dis that make the Irving fellows leaders in the school-life of Westport.

Looking Over the past years of the Clay Club, we readily perceive that the year of 1914-15 ranks as one of the most Successful years that has ever been experienced by this Debating Club of Westport students, or in fact by any other society of the school. The Inain reason for this great success was the excellent work of the President, Marion Waltner, and the Adviser, Mr. Humphrey. The President, who served so well the first term that he was reelected for the second term, has done a great deal to promote the interests of the club in the school, and has managed the inside affairs of the club very successfully. Mr. Humphrey has created much enthusiasm over debating and has guided the young and ambitious mem- bers very Well. The programs have all been very interesting. Much experience in debating has been gained by them, which is shown by the fact that the Clay Club placed two men on the first debate team and three on the second team. The roll of the club is made up of some of the best students of Westport, who represent the club in all school activities. Five Clay members made the debate tryout, four held places on the basket-ball squad, live were in the Christmas play, four were in the Senior play, and three held places on the HERALD staff. Clay representatives were also seen in track and tennis. The Crier staff was the only place in which this society's representa- tives were not in predominance. Qnly one member was placed on that staff, that member being Craig Ruby. Mr. Rub President of the Senior Class, after holding 5 Junior Class, was Vice- y, wh-o was elected the same office in hi President of the Clay Club, and he has helped greatly in promoting its interests. On the night of April 2d the Cla Cl b held their annual banquet at tlie Kuppey-yH0tE1. To make the day more interesting some of the fellows took a hike in the mornin g. tl O C 121 f l tol i 'fi-9 1 XVALTNER IR.-XIG RUBY ON .AUSTIN iODER XYILD Ciuwroizn HRENHOFER t that the 'st debate f some of represent Vive Clay four held s were in 1e Senior HERfXLD o seen in was the presenta- Dnly one t member as elected f holding was Vice- as helped lay Club er Hotel. ne of the , 3'.2':o1,4,:,p.-.

The Pundit Club has good reas-on to be proud of this year's work. To begin with, our programs have been very interesting. They have varied from impromptu affairs which were shriekingly funny to meetings character- ized by learned debates on subjects of nation- wide importance such as, Resolved, That the United States should give up the Philippines at Once, and Resolved, That the dago huckster is more good to the World than the Irish police- man. Then, too, we have learned things about other countries-things which we could never have found in books. Charlotte Kirshner's tales of traveling in Europe with a party, and Elizabeth Davis's story of life in Manila, have been instructive as well as entertaining, There was also a young Scotchman, Mr. Somerville, who visited us on the memorable day of the Clay-Irving basket-ball game.

We are proud of our year's work and have benefitted each other by our attempts to entertain and educate. We have had declamations galore and have heard from several members who gave promise of attaining great oratorical abil- ity. We have sung familiar German songs and we have developed some veritable Schu- mann-Heinks. Then we have had piano Solos, violin solos, piano and violin duets, and some Uclassyi' mandolin solos. Our club has a num- ber of pianists, the equal of whom, perhaps cannot be found in any high school society. VVe have had several plays which have dis- played the dramatic powers of those engaged for likely to bej in an unusual manner. One play, in particular, pleased the audience, not because of the clever acting of the cast, but be- cause the props, consisting of soup, rice pud- ding, steak, silverware, etc., were pleasing to the eye. Our grand event of the year was the pre- sentation of the one act comedy, Eigensinn,', ! H. BECKMANN by Benedix. 'Twas some affair. Wfe never realized until the play was well under way what great talent had been among us. We never knew that Alfred Benjamin could be so fatherly and could drink so much grape juice QFD at one time. Miss Wilkin was certainly a charming little maid until that streak of stub- bornness made its appearance. Nevertheless, she endeared herself to the five hundred pres- ent. Arthur Brackett had great difficulty in remaining with his moustache. And wasnit he the most affectionate creature imaginable? For further particulars see Miss VVelsh. We all agree that it was a mean trick they played on the motherly Miss Bard. Welsh was certainly a dear little domestic thing, and wasn't her injured tone pitiful to hear? Poor Irving Smith played undef 3 great strain, that of being rude to M155 Wijkillb Nice work, Irving.

We have grown wonderfully both in spirit and in num- bers, which is due largely to the untiring ef- forts of our adviser, Mr. Phillips. VVe are indebted to many Outsiders who have helped make our meetings successful. On one Occasion the Jaurez school of Mexi- cans in this city visited the Calderones and gave an interesting program Open to the whole school. Senorita Flores gave a reading on the flag, and music was furnished by the string band. Dr. Qsorio, Mexican consul, gave an interesting talk on the plant life of Mexico. Senor Urbina, former editor of Las Nove- dacles, and Senor Jose Lopez spoke to us at other times. Senor Lopez gave us general in- formation concerning Mexico and Senor Urbina spoke on Spanish as a language. The year has been spent mostly in the study of South American countries. Several times . ........... MR. PHILLIPS we have used stereopticonlslides Of Mexico and other countries. As a wind-up of the yearys work we were entertained on April 12th with a lecture by Dr. P. Burnett, who has traveled extensively through South America. He spoke on the points of difference between South America and the United Statesg namely, the political differences, vegetation, and animal life, and customs. So-called revolutions occur regularly every two years, and are taken as matter-of- fact as a dog nght is taken by us. Margaret King Sang for us at this meeting. The play given by the Calderones this year, La Muela del juicio, was produced in a pleas- ing and effective manner. If you lack a pay- ing position just impersonate your dentist friend. In a word, as a result of the year's work we are all better Spaniards and better Calderones. ELSIF CORNELL, Secretary. -.

KIRCHOFER The aim of the Science Club is to present scientihc facts and explanations, modern in- ventions and researches, from botany to elec- tricity. Of course, this sounds formidable, but those who have attended the meetings will assure you that none of the subjects were in- comprehensible. Most of them were illustrated by practical experiments or demonstrations, as, for instance, a lecture Miss Van N eman gave on The Adaptation of Plants. This lecture was illustrated with lantern slides which showed how certain plants adapt themselves to their surroundings, and some even to their enemies, by means of thorns or similar weapons Again we had a talk on Mr. Edison's new invention, The New Edison Machinef' a musical instrument which was ' SECOND TERRT.

CHARLES ADANIELS HERRMANN demonstrated by a representative from the firm which exhibits this machine.

Its prosperity, wealth, and many good times have been discussed by the school, including the faculty. VVe started out in the beginning of the year to hike and have been taking hikes ever since. Our Hrst hike of the year led us to Liberty, Missouri, via Liberty Landing. The old arsenal, the tunnel, and other historical land- marks all fell under our keen eyes. Independence, by way of the Missouri river, came next. Such interesting things as the- Brewery, Cement City, and the Standard Gil refineries were noted. We were allowed to investigate the mechanism of the big clock in the city hall at Independence, an honor con- ferred to only the favored few. We were the hosts of three of our most respected faculty, Mr. Hill, Mr. Roberts, and Mr. Booth. Little Blue and Independence again were favored by our presence and lunch money. We had intended to visit the poor farm, but after eating a good dinner, the hill upon which the farm is situated looked too formidable for our aching joints and full stomachs. SECOND TERM.

We were very fortunate in securing Mr. Harman as adviser, as it is to him that we must give the credit for the high position the club now occupies.

We girls have long wanted a history club and now, We are glad to say, We have it. All have Worked hard to make it a success but it is to Miss Shire's untiring efforts that we feel we Owe most. Witan is derived from vvita, meaning sage -or councilor, and was the name of the council of Anglo-Saxon kings. Didnlt you all hear the boom when we started? It seemed that all Westport did, and stopped to hear, see, and End out about it. In consequence of such notice, we now feel we have taken our place in Westport among the clubs who really do things. VVe intend to end our Hrst year's work with just such a boom and next year to boom all year long. Our work is History and Its Allied Sub- jects. Already we have studied several very interesting movements, like the Invasions of England, ending with the recent attacks upon . . . . .MISS SHIRE the English coast. Then we have taken four very enjoyable excursions. We feel we have a very strong club and we are not only proud of being Witans, but also of those of our number who are doing things in Westport. Our Worthy president has heaped up honors as she has done all through her school course. She was in the Christmas play, had a foremost role in the Senior play and was a winner on the debating team sent to Northeast. Qne of her colleagues at North- east, Beulah Limpus, is also a Witan and was in the Senior play. Josephine McColgin is another Witan debater. Mouriel Heath is vice-president of the Senior Class.

It is the latest addition to the Physiography Department and makes the course here in Physiography one of the best in this part of the country. You would probably like to know h-ow it was established, so I will give you the main steps in its con- struction and operation. One day our teacher in Physiography, Mr. Miller, picked out a couple of eager students to construct for the Department a latticed shelter. He had procured from the Weather Bureau of the Department of Agriculture the plans used by the Government in the construc- tion of such shelters. He gave them such instruction as he thought necessary, and told them to see Mr. Guisinger and get to work. The ,two fellows were Foster Strong and myself. We first made out a lumber bill of the whole shelter and submitted it to Mr. Guisinger for approval. After he had passed upon it, it was mailed to the buyer for the School Board and he purchased what lumber he thought neces- sary, Westport Stock Room to furnish the rest. The live frames were made first, the front, back, two- sides, and door frames. Louver boards were then .latticed into these, until they took on the appearance of huge square shutters. The five frames were each covered with a coat of filler and three coats of white lead paint. The frames were then Htted together, the door frame being hinged to the front frame. The floor was then put in, with a slight space between the boards to allow a complete circulation of the air in the shelter. Supports for thermometers were then put across the center of the shelter, and the whole was placed on a stand five feet high, the stand having been madeiand painted be- fore setting up. The shelter was taken up to the roof and the following instruments were placed in it: Barograph, Thermograph, Maximum and Minimum Therm-ometers, Hygrometer, and plain Centigrade Thermometer. The Baro- graph is an instrument which draws a line to represent the atmospheric pressure from day to day. The paper on which the line is drawn is graduated and the position of the line on the scale is the pressure at that time. Like- wise the Thermograph is a continuous reg- ister of the temperature. The Maximum and Minimum Thermometers show the highest and lowest temperatures reached by the ther- mometer in the course of twenty-four hours. The Hygrometer is an instrument which by comparison with some tables gives the Dew Point, and the Relative and Absolute Humid- ity. The instruments are similar to those used by P. Connor, which the Physiography stu- dents saw on their trip to the Weather Bureau.

Zoology is something more than the study of bugs To be sure, some time is spent in collecting insects, because they are -of great importance economically. But then there are the strange animals living in the sea-such as sponges, corals, molluscs, and fish, of which there are many specimens in our laboratory. One of the most attractive phases of Zoology is the study of birds. Many a student is astonished to find that the trees and bushes are full of beautifully colored birds which he had never noticed before. Y Ylvhy fig?-f-.?iwY1i v.

The greenh-ouse and garden work, as well as the field trips, give exercise to .the body at the same time that habits of observation are being acquired. Since credit is being given for single term work, the classes are quite full. An essay contest in two of the girls, physiology classes on the subject of 'fl-lygiene for High School Girlsl' resulted in some very good w-ork. Miss Catherine Myers, class 1918, won in the contest and her essay appears in THE HERALD. THE PATH OF INDULGENCE AND RESTRAINT Mildred Hastings and Frances Downing were walking home from school one day. It was not because they were very intimate friends, but because their homes were near to each other. Somehow Frances just couldn't care for Mildred-their lives were so different. Fran- ces had an older and a y-ounger brother, George aged twenty, and John, thirteen. Frances was eighteen years of age. Their mother spent almost all of her time attending to her domestic affairs and her children. On the other hand Mildred was an only child, her mother being very socially inclined, and her father a wealthy and influential lawyer of the middle western city in which they lived. Ever since Mildred's babyhood she had been allowed to stay up at night until the spirit moved her to retire. She had eaten any kind and every kind of food she had wanted. The little silver candy dish on the table in her room was always kept full to overflowing. Mildred had a very wrong idea of dress. The clothes that she wore to school were entirely unsuitable, for they were too elaborate. There was no noticeable difference in the weight of Z3 her summer and winter clothes. The coldest weather found Mildred's neck eXP0SCd en' tirely too much. One day she would wear Spring heeled shoes and the next day come to school with high heeled pumps and gay colored spats. She was alternately breaking down the arch and straining the muscles of her feet. She often wondered why her feet hurt her so much of the time. Her hair, which was thin and fine, was always done up in the latest and most extreme fashion, so, altogether Mildred was a very conspicuous person in her classes and the corridors of the high schoo-l. E Yet, despite her parents' indulgence and her extreme ideas 'of dress, she was very independent and in some ways democratic, for she insisted upon going to the large public high school not far from their home. Mildred, by rights, was a very bright girl, but the years of bad training and lack of restraint had begun to show, so that at the age of seventeen she was a colorless and exceedingly slender girl. She was very tall, and her features were very good, but her sallow complexion pre- vented her from being called pretty. Mildred was ambitious to become an accomplished girl, so she studied very hard. Her music and dancing lessons took a great deal of time, so she worked very hard all through the winter. She took no time for complete relaxation or out-door exercise, for all her time was spent with her books. She was always in a hurry, too, 'rushing to and from sch-ool, eating hurried meals, then rushing to a music lesson, and back to her school work again. She expected to graduate from high scho-ol that vear and was not taking chances of failing in any subject. Now Frances Downing's life was wholly different from the career of To begin with, one of her mottoes was, f'Earlv b to ed and early to rise. All summer long 6 she had played tennis with her brothers an hour or two bef-ore break Mildred Hastings. fast. lYhen Frances was younger she was known all over the neigh- borhood as a regular little tom-boy.

Of course she had always eaten candy, but it was not the main article of her diet, as it was of Mildreds. She was not a brilliant student, for her studies had always been rather hard for her, but her physical c-on- dition was so much better than was Mildreds that they maintained an equal footing in their classes at school. It was very seldom that Frances studied at night, as her mother did not allow it. Then she usually found time to go out in the afternoon, but it was very seldom that she went any place on a scho-ol night. That also was forbidden. She went out a large part of the time on holidays, but not enough to seriously interfere with the keeping up of her school work. Frances never worried much about her school clothes. She had the same idea as Professor W. A. McKeever, who says, The first essential of the' clothes of a girl is good health, the second is comfort, and the third is convenience. In winter her ward- robe consisted of several dresses of serge or other heavy materials and middies and skirts. Her hair was fixed in a very simple manner that was rarely changed. Her manner of dressing made her as inconspicu- ous as possible, and added rather than de- tracted from her popularity. Soon everything out of doors began to sl1OW signs of spring. The days grew warmer, Ellld as Frances expressed it, It surely felt good to be alive. Mildred, however, scarcely noticed the change from winter to spring. As the time for graduation drew nearer, she worked harder and harder. Her mother, wh-o was so engrossed with her social affairs, scarcely noticed how alarmingly pale and thin her daughter was getting. She was also very nervous and cross, all the more reason for letting her alone. Finally the inevitable hap- pened. One night about eleven o'clock, while working with her less-ons, Mildred fainted. She was found by one of the maids and a doctor was summoned immediately. The mother and father returning from the theatre, were informed that their daughter had had a nervous break-down. Of course there was no hope of graduating with the rest of her class, nor in the near future. Possibly,', the doct-or had said later, in a year or twof, Frances, however, graduated that summer, not with flying colors, but by no means near the foot of her class. We see the result of the two manners of living-the girl who was pampered and with- out restraint, and the other with the proper hygienic training, who received her reward in happiness and the full joy of living. f'To carry out the rich emotional and intellectual life of humanity, we need a good tool, a good body, a strong and beautiful and well-trained organ- ism, and this is gained only through culti- vationfl CATHERINE NTYERS, ,l8. . i,-ml .., LIFE'S CRUISE The moon rose 0'er a silver sea, The little waves daheed at 50 We, A stately ship sailed away Om Of a quiet, sequestered bay. lldy heart weiit with the Captain there, Wifslied him luck and weather fair, For once I met the gale lVith a strong and steady sail.

CAMERON KRoH REED, lla. .xi , .,, Y --wf?f 'w N., 'Us DITESTIII SCI CE I INFANT DIET The great value and importance of this sub- ject, namely, infant diet, cannot be overesti- mated,rtherefore it has been instituted in the course of Advanced Cooking-this year being the initial one. Children's diet is the foundation of citizen- ship. Whether or not a child shall become a vigorous, healthful adult depends almost en- tirely upon the nutrition in the early part of its life. Wfhen we know that in France a law has been instituted requiring that children un- der the age of one year be given nothing but liquid food, we see the folly of parents who boast that their children can eat anything on the tablef' just as they themselves do. The United States Department of Agricult- ure has taken up the matter of infant foods. A circular is issued for the treatment by heat necessary to make milk a safe food for in- fants. The establishment in Boston and later in New York, Philadelphia, and elsewhere of the Walker-Gordon Milk Laboratories opened a new field in the province of infant diet, and results show the advantages that have been gained so far. Also, in different parts of the world, there have been established six schools for the edu- cation of brides. This training consists large- ly of infant diet. The value and success of the undertaking is so apparent, that we real- ize the need of an extension of this work. The course as given in our high school is not aimed to go deeply into the subject, for there is danger of making one over-confident of her own ability and thus, perhaps, bring about disastrous results. The purpose of the course is to create an idea of the importance of the subject: to teach sanitary methods of handling infant foods, the modification of cows' milk, also its pasteurization when ad- visable, and the disadvantages of most of the artincial foods on the market. As the growth of a child is studied, the changes in its dietetic capacity are noted. Suitable and easily digested foods are, in part, substituted for milk. It is intended that we be so acquainted with the child's needs up to six or eight years of age, that food, fresh air, and exercise will make him the healthy young ani- mal that Ruskin says is the first consideration of youth. It is certain that there is no longer any ex- cuse for a girl who has been a student of Wfest- Port Hlgh SCh0O1, giving a child bananas, pork. hot breads, and pies for its food.

'15, ti: '--- -T-gggm Q V DAINTIES MADE BY THE CLASSES IN COOKING ACCURATE SCIENTIFIC COOKING 'fGood morning, Mrs. Brown. Iive been trying to come to see you ever since I heard of your fall, but every day something has pre- vented me. How are you ? Doing as well as I could expect, the doctor Says, although he tells me I can not hope to get up for at least six weeksf' Well, isn't that unfortunate, with all of your boarders, and no one to do the cooking but Alice? She, I suppose, never had much experience, having been in school ever since S116 got big enough to help. Mrs. Brown loo-ked at her visitor with a Smile, and an expression of triumph, as She said: You would be surprised, Mrs. Grey, to see how naturally Alice fits into the place. I al- most feel as if it is worth my broken ankle to demonstrate what she has learned at school. When my neighbors heard that'Alice was tak- ing Domestic Science in High School, they were very doubtful as to the wisdom of it. I-Ier aunt informed me that I was spoiling her, letting those teachers fill her head with all sorts of notions, learning to waste good ma- terials making fancy dishes that no one can eat. She said Alice had better put her time on her books, her mother ought to be able to teach her how to cook. When I tried to ex-- plain, Aunt Mary wouldnlt listen, but said, I would find, when she got through with her course, she wouldnit be able to cook a substan- ,--SEL 76 THE VVESTPQRT HIGH SCHCDOL HERALD. tial meal without help. I just held my peace, and thought, fthe day will come when we will show themf It is ten days since the accident put me in bed. Alice had been at home just one week. She put on her big apron, and went to the kitchen. The boarders say, she has not had a failure. The foods are prepared in such a variety, and all so delicious, they think she is a wonder. She has learned so many tempting ways of serving that add to the ap- pearance of the table. Une thing in which she takes great pride, and which causes much com- ment, is the excellence of her meats. They are so juicy and tender, and still Well-cooked. She attributes her uniform success to the use of the thermometer. Instead of guessing by the clock, as we usually do, the scientihc cooks of to-day use a thermometer, inserting it through the middle of the roast. By this, they can regulate the heat, and the time required, so they have no failures. They also use the thermometer in preparing many other foodsf, Que would think, Mrs. Brown, she would get tired of being so particular, and grow careless, young people usually dof, The enthusiasm with which she Works ig. the most gratifying thing to me, she is so in- terested in everything. If anyone understands the methods employed in the schools, he must see the benefit of scientific cooking.

Don srlc ART HCOL HERALD. 77 was out of ward school, with a long, carefree summer to which she could look forward, end- ing in high schoorl-Westport High School! Emma Chester sat with her parents in the drawing room of the Chester home. They were discussing Emmafs program for her Freshman year at Westport. U HAlgebra, English, Civics, Latin, GYmf read Mr. Chester slowly. l'And Sewing, do-n't forget that, added Mrs. Chester, quietly. Emma's heart sank. H0h, mother, please, please don't make.m6 take horrid old sewing, you know I JUS'f know it will. Besides, mother, I can sew all right, I hemstitch handkerchiefs beauti- fully, and I have often watched you make my dresses. Why, mother,', her confidence sud- d,enly soared high, UI am quite sure I could make all my clothes if I had to. Mrs. Chester's eyes twinkled. Hear the childf, she appealed to her hus- band, She could make all her own clothes and-She d-oesn't even use a thimble! Oh, well, theylll teach YOU t0 use one at West' port, dear, and she smiled across complacently at her daughter. DRESSES MADE IN FIRST YEAR SEWING CL.-xssEs Silence reigned in the drawing room. Emma huddled disconsolately in her chair. Sewing! Her thoughts dwelt upon the hated word, scornfully. Why the idea was ridiculous. Hadn't she made scores and scores of doll clothes-her doll things always were the envy and despair of the rest of the girls, too-and hadn't she cross-stitched and embroidered just hundreds of towels and napkins? Cf course she had never attempted making anything for herself, but she knew that dresses and things would not be hard-they were just enlarged doll clothes. Oh, if she could only prove to her mother. Suddenly an idea Hashed through Emma's brain. Prove it, of course she would prove it, she would show them that sewing was abso-lutely unnecessary in her course. Mother, I've got it, she cried, rather am- biguously, as she ran across to her mother's chair. l'll make a dress-a real one, all by myself-plan it and choose it and cut it out and everything. Then when I show you that I can already sew, will you agree that T needn't take the stuff next year? Please, mom, please let me, she finished entreatingly. For a time Mrs. Chester studied her daughters anxious face lovingly. Then again the mother's eyes twinkled mysteriously. All right, honey, she said at last, dad and l'll agree, provided you give us good proof. DF Pk bk lk lk lk It was a sultry, blazing afternoon in early August. Upstairs in the front bedroom of the Chester home, Emma drew a long breath and surveyed the work on the table before her. Thank heavens, it was finished, the dress she had planned so joyously.

She had sewed two of the skirt seams on the right side and two on the wrong, she had purchased two yards too much lace for trimming and a yard and a half too little silk for binding and bows. And that was saying nothing of the immense The fluffy goods had become slazy and dingy with much handling, Emma told herself so firmly. To be sure the bows were there, three of them. Two were planted heavily on the shoulders, the other weighed down one side of the skirt. The ruffles were also there, but what queer, uncertain, wabbly looking ruffles they were. The sleeves were puffed, but if one examined them ever so slightly, it was quickly noticed that the puff of the right was vastly different both in size and form from the puff of the left.

There was no reason for such obstinacy-at least none that Emma could find-but the fact remained that it hung, and hung clingingly and saggingly. Emma sighed-a long, long sigh. And then slowly the self-same twinkle which had twice appeared in the mother's eyes, rose up in the daughters She turned from the mirror, slipped off the dress and folded it carefully. Then she washed her hot face, brushed her hair, and ran down stairs. 1 I ,-. -1'? '- - 80 THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOOL HERALD. . Serge and Gaberdine. Mrs. Chester was entertaining a visitor. 11 D Q 12.

After the mortise and tenon joint was finished, work was begun on the drawings of the spe- cial projects that the boys wished to make. This plan enabled the students to make larger and better projects without rushing. The exercises made this year were: sawing exercise, chiseling exercise, scroll saw exer- cise, cross lap joint, mortise and tenon joint, and for the students who- ha.d time after the Special projects were finished, the pen tray and dove tail joint. One thing that has helped in the making of the large articles this year is a hand jointer machine. With this jointer, joint edges can be made so that they lit exactly. Many more Cedar chests, library tables, and other large articles were made than in former years. Among the articles made this year, cedar Chests were made by Kenneth Armstrong, l0S6ph Appleby, Lale Andrews, VVilliam Bow- man, Everett Cathcart, Russel Deck, Robert King, Allan Lytle, Clarence Peterson, and Wallace Watts. Library lamps were made by Dewey Bruce, Gregory Carr, Harold Crot- tY, Kenneth Cramer, Evar Carlson, Russel Derry, Edward Davis, Robert Dickson, Leo Finkelstein, Frank Guthrie, Worth Hines, james Kinney, Reigle Leonard, Frederick Ly- man, Wilbur McLaughlin, Julius Olsen, Wal- ter Moyer, Cecil Perkins, Burrell Pickering, Raymond Robinson, Celsus Sco-vel, and Rob- ert Younger. Library tables were made by Clayton Arnold, john Brink, Arthur Dods, jack Evans, Robert Hake, Leslie Kneayes, Howard Moore, Edwin Peterson, Paul Smith, VanNote Snook, Lothair Schoenheit, and Al- bert Tabibian. Telephone stands and stools were made by VVilliard Brenner, Rolla Cole- man, Thomas Ware, and Charles Wilson.

THE ANTIQUITY OF IRON No other one thing has fostered more the material progress of man than has iron. On account of lack of knowledge of metals, civ- ilization made very little progress in the pre- historic ages. It is absolutely impossible to fix even an ap- proximate date for the earliest appearance of the use of iron. .Authentic Biblical history Hxes the use of iron at a very early period, while a Chinese manuscript of about the twentieth century, B. C., indicates that the manufacture of iron was known and carried on at that time. Western Asia and Northern Af- rica were probably first familiar with its de- velopment. In Genesis, Tubal-Cain, of the seventh generation from Adam, is spoken of as an instructor of every artifice in brass and ' gypt furnishes us the earliest authen- tic records of the history of man, and we know that the Egyptians were familiar with the manufacture an iron. E d use of iron implements. Herodo-tus mentions the use of iron tools in the construction of the Pyramids.

Helmets and armor found there are at least three thousand years old, Img relics were found under the feet of the Sphinx at Karnak, and a piece of iron was taken from the great pyramid at Gizeh. Biblical refer- ences show that the Egyptians used iron at the time of the Captivity, and it is certain that the Israelites became familiar with the art. The iron deposits in the territory of ancient Car- thage were then worked, and even to the pres- ent day are extensively mined. Iron was known to the Chaldeans, Babylonians, and As- syrians, contemporaries of the early Egyp- tians. The Book of Job, covering the patri- archial period between Abraham and Moses, frequently relates to iron. From then on the Biblical chronicles are full of allusions. In Asia relics show that the industry was known there at an early date. India carried on an extensive manufacture of iron and steel, which has since declined. China, japan, and Corea were anciently familiar with the metal. It is probable that in China it finds its greatest antiquity. When these ancient civ- ilizations faded away they carried with them much of the knowledge of the use of metals. In Greece, as in Egypt, the discovery of iron was attributed to the gods, a circum- stance which vouches for its great antiquity. References in Homer, however, seem to point to it as a very precious and rare metal, small quantities of it being offered as very desirable prizes. During the fourth century, B. C-, there seems to have been a fairly wide-Sprwd use of iron, while at that time the use of steel for weapons is recorded. As early as the sixth century, B. C., the Romans used iron exten- sively, and in one of their early treaties they agreed to use iron for no other purpose than fOr agricultural implements. About the be- ginning of the Christian Era the growth of the Roman Empire and adjacent nations gave the use of iron- and steel its first marked aC- celeration. In Spain, where the far-famed Toledo blades came from, iron was worked at an early petri-od. The steel made there was of the best quality. The Roman legions were equipped with swords from Toledo. This in- dustry ilourished until the decline of chivalry. France did not become familiar with the manufacture of iron until a later date, as she was not so fortunate as Spain, where all the ancient civilized nations had their successive sways. It is certain that iron was used in Bel- gium as early as the time of Julius Caesar, al- though nothing more is heard of the smelting of iron there until the fourteenth century, when many furnaces were in operation in the valley of the Meuse. Germany did little with the manufacture of iron until the eighth cen- tury. The industry grew rapidly, and at the beginning of the last century was taken over by the Hrst Krupp. In Norway and Sweden iron was used as early as the eighth century. In many burial chambers iron relics have been found, while the remains of the viking ships show that iron was used to spike or hold them together. It became a general industry there about 1300, workmen being imported from other countries at that time. Documentary historical evidence would seem to point that the manufacture of iron and steel was introduced into Russia by the Brit- ish, but ruins show that some knowledge of the metal existed even before the Christian Era. Even today the greater part of Russian iron is exported, for Russia is very backward industrially. The use of iron probably preceded that of bronze, since its extraction, smelting and work- ing is so much more simple. As I said in the beginning, perhaps no other one thing has done so much for the advance of civilization as iron. When we think of the use to which it is being put in the present European conflict, we wonder what the end will be. We hope that an economic force may not be put into operation that will drag us back into the slime-pits of savagery. FRANK EHRENHOTTER, 'l6. I 'var V ...,-- I I I I , .

It was a close fight, but the Seniors' fast, experienced play- ing made them the winners. All the teams this year have done splendid work. The Senior team is known all over Westport, hav- ing the famous Mae Secrist as captain and the proverbially tall Lorraine Makimson as center. The junior team, if not quite so well known, is almost so. The old standbys, Frances Marr, Martha Castles, and Opal Allen are still here. The new members have do-ne fine work, too. The Sophomore team, as you know, is the same one that was a Freshman team last year and won the cup. The Freshman team is a good, strong one, every member a good player, and all greatly devoted to their captain, Dot Ludwig. The first game, played in the gym on Thurs- day, March 4th, between the Seniors and Sophomores, was very fast, the shooting of the Seniors and the tall jumping of the Sophs being special features. The final score was 16 to 8 in favor of the Seniors. The same day the Freshmen and juniors played. This was an exceedingly close game. The forwards and guards were such fine matches that the two teams tied nearly all through the game. Yet the Juniors proved themselves masters, and won, 14 to 10. Un March llth, the Seniors won their sec- ond victory, this winning them the cup. How- ever, both teams did fine playing. The Senior forwards, Mae Secrist and Florence Emmert, did splendidly, but Frances Marr and Pauline Rudolph made it hard for them. The Senior guards, Ruth Howard and Fay Means, kept up the good work at the other end. They had to guard hard, too, against those Junior for- wards. The final score was 14 to 9, the Seniors the winners. The last game of the series was between the Freshmen and the Sophomores, the former taking the lead. This was another very inter- esting game, especially to the Freshmen. ophomores fought nobly. Captain Ludwig of the Freshman team was a big factor in making the Freshmen win, the game ending with the score 14 to 9.

Although the team did not come up to our C expectations this year, it gave each teamia merry struggle for every minute of P1355 spite of the fact that sprites and nomes of 1 intent were perched abou basket. At the beginning of the season our b0yS , and why HOP- t the Westport were picked as sure winners with a squad of veterans to pick from, but as was the day of the first game dawned.th6fC gloom in our camp, and the evil spfltes danced about with gleeful tread. What was the cause of such dejection among our players? Had i1lriel's band so soon begun their work of evil? Sure enough! One of our old standby' guards was ruled out-first mishap of the sea- SUIT. However, we managed to sail through the first two games without serious damage. By the time of the third game, the ineligible one had been reinstated and we started into the game with high hopes of making it three straight. No sooner had the game started than-Zip-out went one of the stars. This loss handicapped the team so that it was un- able to put over the Hpunchi' in the last few minutes of play. In this way we were followed, more or less, the remainder of the season. First we were weakened by some star's loss, accidental or otherwise Cchietly otherwise jg and then, to cap the climax-we were beaten by a point o-r two in decisive games. VVhile we did not win the championship, we were the closest contenders, and can also say that we have a squad worthy of envy, when we recall the nine victories without a defeat- the second team's record. The loss of the highest prize is not due to the lack of coach- ing and equipment, and we owe a vote of thanks to Coach Hoopes and the Athletic Com- mittee. A GOOD START WESTPORT, 29 5 NoRTHEAsr, 26 r On the night of january 8th, before a crowd of twelve hundred spectators, Westport began its season by defeating Northeast in a hotly. contested game by the score of 29 to 26. The game was a thriller from the start to the final whistle, and was as good an exhibi- tion of basket-ball as a bug', would care to see. The sc-ore was close at all times, the count at the end of the third quarter being 24 to 20, with our boys on the heavy end. The last quar- ter was a grand rush. VVith Northeast only gg THE WESTPORT HIGH SCHOQL HERALD. four points behind at the start of the last quar- ter, the Purple and White quintet started in whirlwind fashion, a goal from the held by Talquist putting the Ayres-Root machine with- in two points of tying the score. Immediately after Talquist's goal, Wickline shot the sphere through the ring for the count of two, and closely following this he dropped a free-throw in, giving our boys a five-point lead. Wick's free-thr-ow was the final point scored by the wearers of the Blue and Gold. VVickline's brilliant work featured the VVest- port play, while Ayres and Talquist played most consistently for Northeast. Red Row, star guard on the Hoopes ma- chine, was declared ineligible on the morning of the day of the game. This was a serious blow t-o the Westport team. In the afternoon our second team walloped the Northeast seconds by the score of 44 to 28. Jim Simpson was the individual star.

WESTPORT, 50, MANQUAL, 24 We won our second contest by walking on Manual, in the new Northeast gymnasium, on the 15th day of january. The game was decidedly one-sided, Our bOys Completely outclassing the inexperienced Man- ual team. Our five, led by Captain Wickline, took the ball to their goal almost at will. The play was featured by clever passing, accurate goal shooting, and brilliant guarding. Time and again Wick, Walt,' and Ritter, by clever work, passed their way to many goals. At the end of the first quarter the score stood l4 to 8 in our favor. After the initial period our boys had things entirely as they wanted them, and it was only at times that the Crimson five would show a flash of form that would halt our fierce attack. With Manual worn out and the score stand- ing 38 to 22 at the close of the third quarter, the remaining period gave our boys an oppor- tunity to reach the fifty mark. It was at the first of this period that Homer sprained his ankle. Timm Simpson replaced Ritterhoff at center and played well. Ruby also played an excellent game, holding his man t-o one goal. In the preliminary mix-up, our second team defeated the Manual seconds by a score of 25 to l6. Gottleib and Captain Kirkpatrick played well for our bunch The line-up: WESTPORT, 50 G. F. T. F.

WESTPOART, 245 CENTRAL, 26 When we met Central in a crucial game, on our own court, january 22d, luck played its part. We just couldnyt win, just simply couldn't-Central-and luck wouldn't have it that way. Our hopes ran high before the game. Red Row was back in the game, and our team was in excellent! condition, the boys having been put through a week of careful training. Hardly had the game started when Craig Ruby, one of the best guards in the: league, was compelled to leave the fioor. This was not only a great material loss to the team, but it greatly affected the mental condition of our boys. The incident threw the boys off their game. The game continued with 'Kensinger in Ruby's place. The play was extremely fast, sometimes brilliant, and oftentimes very rough, the roughness being due to the fierceness of the playing, each team putting forth every ounce of strength it had. During the first half it was a see-saw affair. Central would lead off with a spurt, only to be overtaken and passed by a rally by 'OUI' team- The first half ended with the score in a knot- l3 to 13. Flory had been playing mo-st consistently for Westport. Viner's dribbling and the accurate goal-shooting by Singer had kept Central play- ing up to standard. The third quarter opened with both teams fighting fiercely. But-it was the third quar- ter-our weak period, and so it proved thiS time. Central opened up and by feeding the ball to Singer they managed to roll up the score until at the end of the period the count was 23 to 17. With a six-point lead to overcome, our boys made a fierce attack -on the Central five, in an attempt to cut down the lead and take the game, but after tying the score all our 1101965 were blasted when Singer, in the last minute of play, shot one from the field. The game ended with the score standing 26 to 24. BY defeating the Central second team in the aftem00U, our second squad completed the first round with a clean record. The game was close and very exciting-score 22 to 20. The line-up: W12sTPoRT, 24 wicmine qcaptp, lf ..... ......

A CLOSE CALL WESTPORT, 32 g N ORTHEAST, 28 That final gunshot was sweet music to our ears, for had it not been fired when it was, Northeast might have-, but they didn't. The score was 32 to 28 in Westport's favor. The game was fast and very rough, Htime outl' being taken for injuries by both teams. During the progress of the game the teams seemed to take turns at rallying and slump- ingf' Northeast started out with a rush and for a while swept our boys off their feet. The second and third quarters, however, were dif- ferent stories, the score at the end of the third quarter being 27 to 16-Westport. Coach Rootys .boys did the 'fcome-back stunt in the fourth period.

Qur boys were ili U16 prime of condition and full of fight, while on the other hand, North, the Central star-drib- bler, was out of the game because of sickness. Again it was often remarked that Central WHS over-confident. We started the game with great alacrity and managed to keep right on the heels of the league leaders. All our boys were fighting hard, 'Wick,' and 'gRed Row starring. The second quarter was quite an encour- agement, for when the fire -of battle had died down and the smoke had cleared away, it was found that we had not only overcome the two- point lead acquired by Central in the first quarter, but had brought our end of the score up until it stood 14 to 12. But to-o much prosperity has caused many downfalls. VVith fire in their eyes, the Central boys came back in the third quarter and set a pace with which for a time we were unable to contend. Wickline got busy and by urging his men on and by playing most brilliantly him- self, we did manage to check Central a little. Nevertheless the score at the end of the quar- ter was 19 to 16 against us. In the final period our boys made a valiant fight. We cut down the three-point lead and forged ahead of the Central five when Wick and Flory scored in rapid succession. With our boys in the lead and going at top speed, Van Boskirk, of Central, was injured, and time was taken out while he was recovering. This time out was a life-saver for Central, for it not only broke our speed streak, but also gave Central's team a chance to recuperate. When the play was resumed, the Central five not only tied the score, but beat us by three goals, which were made in rapid succession in the last two minutes of play. In the afternoon our second team again cleaned up by the score of 30 to 13. 'jimi' Middlebrook played in the last quarter, and managed to get seven spectacular goals from the field.

It was the first time in the history of basket-ball that Northeast had won a game against us. Although our boys fought desperately, they were unable to get together in the usual style. The play was excellent at times, but often lagged. It might be said that the slumps in the play were due to the visions of the game with Central on the Saturday night preceding this game-ask Wickline? The playing of the Northeast team was certainly worthy of ad- miration. The wearers of the Purple and White struggled valiantly to victory in an up- hill game against a squad of veterans. Their clever passing and speed dribbling oftentimes brought the much deserved cheers from the m-ost loyal Westport supporters. u The Hrst half was able to hold its reputa- tion with us-Westport had made 26 points while Northeast was gathering 18.

Brother Wickline was the leader of a funeral march carried on by our boys in the second half. He was closely followed by our friends Flory, Row, Ruby and Ritterhoff, the last of whom had supplanted Middlebrook at center. It was indeed a sad affair, for while our boys were in the midst of solemn medi- tation N-ortheast Qscoundrels that they arej copped the bacon. NVhen the half ended, the score was 41 to 37 in favor of Northeast. The Purple and White had played in top form and were fully de- serving of the hard fo-ught game. Some consolation, anyway-Kirk's 'fgangn lined up the Northeast seconds for three out of three. The score was 23 to 12. The line-up: I WEsTPoRT, 37 G. F. T. F.

Everybody seemed to'P1Ck OH the? in spite of the fact that civilization has deve - oped a spirit of sympathy amd Pity for those who are meek and helpless. This is the third time we have run away with the Crimson squad and it is getting to be an old story. Coach Hoopes changed the line-up for this game by inserting Hal Hodges in Walter Floryls place, and by using Middlebrook at center instead of Ritterhoff. The combination worked well and gave prospects of a champion- ship team next year, as Middlebrook, Row and Hodges will be back in the ranks of the Blue and Gold when hostilities begin next year. The game was a cinch all the way. The score, 29 to 8, at the end of the first half, in- dicates that the half was quite a gallop for our boys. Hodges, the lanky forward, and Captain VVickline, scored frequently, and between the two they managed to roll up twenty-three points against the Crimson opponents-a neat little record for one half. The second half was a repetition of the first -more slaughter of the innocents. In the preliminary game our second team made it eight straight by defeating Manualys second squad by the score of 17 to 16. Pretty close-but a miss is as good as a mile. The line-up : WESTPORT, 51 G.

THE LAST STRAW WEs1'PoRT, 29, CENTRAL, 30 The last game of the year was an important contest to both VVestport and Central, for vic- tory had an unusual meaning: if VVestport had won we would have been the only ones tO have registered a defeat against the champion Blue and White live, if Central had won they would be' an ever-victorious team, an honor seldom won here in the High School League. The game started with a burst of speed, each team playing a close defensive game. There was not frequent scoring, as the ball was sel- dom free, and the playing was so fast that the forwards were unable to get away. Row and Ruby deserve much credit f-or the manner in which they held Singer and Van Boskirk down, for in holding these men down rested our only hopes. The play of this quarter was a foreshadowing of the final result-a desper- ately fought game lost by one point, the score at the close of the period was 8 to 7 in favor of Central. The players seemed tired and the minute's rest was a great help. When the whistle blew, both teams were up again, ready to do their best. This period, as the first, was a whirl- wind of speed and strength. We overcame the one point lead in this quarter. The score now stood 13 to 13. The third quarter was our strongest. The boys got busy right away, and the way they did things, made it look to us as if we had that game tucked away. On the start Row, Wick- line, and Flory made a field goal apiece in rapid succession. This gave us quite a lead, but in addition to this, Wickline added two more to his free-throw record. In the mean- time Central had awakened, and although still in a stupor, they accumulated four points, This left us five points in the lead-22 to 17. Now came the' Angel of Adverse fortune. Middlebrook and Wickline had shots, but were unable to score. Then Central, as if a dragon awakened from a deep sleep, sprang up and the way they acted will not be mentioned, but the fact remains-the score was tied, 27 all. Now came the point of highest interest, the time when the girls shut their eyes and boys strained their optics -the last five minutes, or the extra inning. To start the show, Red Row scored, and we were sailing along in pretty fair style, when a cog slipped, Central scored three points just before the curtain dropped. The final score was 30 to 29. In the second team game our bo-ys hung it on', the Central bunch and made it nine straight. The second team, piloted by Kirk- patrick, the fair-haired little boy, deserves much credit for their work this year. The sc-ore was 26 to 21, and said score together with the rest of the second team's scores gives us room to say with revengeful tone, Central is not the only school that can brag of an ever- victorious team. P. S. The faculties of YV. and C. pulled off a game of some kind of ball on the basket- ball court, after the big battle. Westport won, 12 to 6. It was one big laugh-were you there?

We're all pulling for you. t TRACK HIKES The track team this fall tried something that had never been tried before at Westport-Sat- urday hikes. In spite of the fact that many of the fellows Work on Saturdays, there was a fine turn-out for each hike. These hikes proved to 7 -ily J,Yw -v f-f' !i,.-v- '+- Y Q8 imn3um5TPoRTrHGHsx1Kxu.HERALD- be excellent for a number of reasons. Of course they hardened the men up and enabled the fellows to become acquainted with the Othfil' members of the team, but they also gave the coaches a new way to 'crea.ch a difficult man, The first hike was an eye-opener. SOITIC OI the fellows whom we thought to be 'ggir1S,,' veritably walked the legs off of us. Bad weather stopp-ed the hiking, but H-O doubt it willbe continued next fall. THE K. C. A. C. INVITATION The K. C. A. C. indoor meet was held Febru- ary 27th, about two weeks earlier than in previous years. Westport was well repre- sented. In the fifty-yard dash, our men, Booker, Shubert, and Jarvies, did not qualify for the finals. Selbie was -out on account of sickness. The three places were won by out of town men, the first time this has happened in several years, as Westport has always had more than their share in this event. The half-mile started without Westport's being represented, as our men, Shubert and Means, did not hear the call. Shubert was then made anchor man on the relay. In the relay, our team, Shubert, Randall, jarvies, and Snyder, literally walked away from Central, our only go-pponents in the event. Frank Osborne proved himself a dark- horse in the high-jump, by taking second in the event. l M. U.-K. U. INVITATION We were well represented in the M. U.-K. U. Invitation Meet, held in Convention Hall the night of March 12th. Northeast was win- ner of the meetbetween the city high schools, scoring a total of 19 points. Westport took second highest honors with 17 points. Captain Selbie was back in the running, after a brief sickness. In celebration of this return Selbie won two firsts, in the 50 and in the In the 880 Shubert added one point to the grand total by taking 3 third place' Sandzen, Crawford, Denebeimy and Cooke cleaned up in the Class C and D relay. The unlimited relay team got third in the race, after having a Hrst almost won-hard 1L1Ck played its part. ,.l- M. U. INVITATION The twelfth annual High School Meet of the University of Missouri was held on Rollins Field, May 1, 1915. A high wind was blow- ing, which cut down the time on the distance runs. The dirt and cinder track was slow, cutting down the time still further. Westport made a fine showing, capturing second place again in Class A. Class A in- cluded schools having an enrollment of three hundred and fifty and over. Kemper Military Academy won first place with 302 points. XVestport came second with 23 2X3 points. Manual was third with 18 1,f6 points. Central, of St. Joe, was fourth with 15 points. Westport beat all high schools en- tered in Class A. The most exciting events were the finish of the half mile and the half mile relay. In the half, Parker of VVestport made a great Hnish in the last twenty-five yards, beating another chap for second place. About four inches sep- arated the Hrst three men. In the half mile relay, Snyder started the running for West- port. Mel got mixed up on the curve and five men passed him. Haddock was the sec- ond man, and the way he ran around three men brought the stand to their feet. jarvies, ad of about fifteen the third man, had a le yards to overcome. He ran well, leaving Cap- tain Selbie about the same distance to over- come. The track was badly cut up by this time, yet Selbie pulled up in the last fifty yards, and finished a close second. Osborne won the high junio with his SWCEUSI' Ollf' taking the bar at five feet seven and a half.

The meet was nip and tuck throughout, with Westport the popular choice. However, as the end drew near the score was exceedingly close, in fact, Westport led by the unhealthy mar- gin of five-sixths of a point. With this shaky lead we entered the pole-vault with fire in our eyes-the pole vault being the last and deciding event. But alas! It was a great sight-that meet. Athletes everywhere: big ones, little ones, lanky ones, fat ones, old and young, but don't forget that we had our share of them. And rooters!-Well, I should say so. Everybody seemed to be there with his girl. All of our boys did remarkably well. Sandzen, a Class D man, distinguished him- self by winning three first places. Captain Selbie did well by winning two firsts, he could have won more if he had been ent-ered. Jarvies and Parker ran well and are deserv- ing of much credit. The Harvard Cup, a much sought for trophy, was captured by Westport. This cup is to be won three different times by the same school to become the permanent property of a school. Westport and Manual have won it once, and Central has won it twice. Just as we were ready to print, it Was dw' covered that Westport had won the Quadran- gular by 5 points. We also won the K.-U. Invitation. Sorry that we can't tell you about it. Summary 120-yard high hurdles: nd Tal Class A-Llawrence CCJ WOH3 Sflydef CW-7fTiffI,?g, 156 4,5 quist CNJ, third, Matthews CC-P, fourth- Seconds.

TENNIS Although Westport did not win either the Singles or the Doubles in the K. U. Invitation Tournament, she won the tournament. West- port won three cups to Manual's two, and Central's one. Westport got six points, While Manual and Central got live apiece. The annual tournament was held at Law- rence, Kansas, as usual. Wfestportls entire team, consisting of Burton Austin CCaptainj, Marion Waltner, Hartwell Kensinger, and Sto- ver Baucus, was entered in both events. Ken- singer had defeated Ross, of Sterling, Kansas, 6-3, 6-3, and Waltner had defeated Tupper, of Lawrence, Kansas, 6-2, 6-O, when it started raining. The wet weather continued until three o'clock the next afternoon, when it was agreed to enter one man from each school in the Singles, and one team from each school in the Doubles. Austin was accordingly placed in the Singles, and Kensinger and VValtner in the Doubles. The VVestport boys had an easy time of it until the finals. Austin lost to Morley, of Central, 5-7, 6-4, 6-l. Austin's work was scientific and brilliant, and Wesport can well be proud of him. Waltner and Kensinger were pitted against Fitzpatrick and VVarner, of Manual. The Man- ual team won, 6-2, 4-6, 6-1. If VVestport had been able to enter her full team in the Singles, and Austin and Waltner, Kensinger and Baucus in the Doubles, the results of the tournament would have been different, for Westport had the best balanced team in the tournament. Westport, however, won the tournament, and further explanation is un- necessary. Let's win all the Cups next year. TENNIS TEAM At Adi.

Sur i K.VQnlnvIoon . 1 Ye History of Ye Senior Class At last we are at the point of saying Adios to our friends. just think, Juniors, Sophs, and Freshies, cogitate upon your deso- lation, when the strong, guiding hand of your elders is withdrawn, and you are left alone to pursue your rocky course of study, basket-ball, and assemblies at old Westport. You may never have thought of the time when you would be alone and unadvised. However, it is a well known fact that there is an ending to everything, or, as Shakespeare said, It's a long worm that has no turning. Now listen, my children, and you shall hear -some real fatherly advice. Set this up as a model for your attainment: to place five out of six basket-ball sweater-meng five out of eight boy debaters, all of the girls on the debating team, to have six cheer-leaders during the four years, to have the most promi- nent essayist in the Kansas City high schoo1SS to be a constant winner of inter-class events, to have some really good cartoonists and artists, to give a big boo-st to the Student Aid Fund, to cause a revived school spirit, and last Cnot leastj, to have a class of 285 princely members, the largest ever graduated from Westport. When you have accomplished any- thing near to this, you will have made your class a success. But we would not dishearten the under- graduates. Such capabilities as are found in the class of '15 are not fo-und in many classes -indeed, very few classes have wonderful basket-ball players, actors, students, and auto- mobile manipulators such as ours. - So, Fresh- men, Sophs, and parasites of '16, try hard to attain the standard of perfection set down by your superiors, and do not be too much dis- couraged if you do not come very near to it, as you will lose the leading spirits of the school in this class which leaves Westport, June 10th, to assist in the general uplift of the world at large. 1 So, we, the class of 1915, bid a fond fare- well to old Vtfestport, her faculty, and under- graduates, and firmly believe that the memory of the happy days at Westport and the friend- ships we have made will never be erased from our memory.

For three years we have labored toward our present po- sition of dignity, and now from that superior height we look down with condescending grace upon struggling Freshmen, strutting Sopho- mores, and sophisticated Seniors. Our class has made a wonderful record this year in all of the school activities. In fact, it is the junior spirit of endless energy that has animated every undertaking. In basket-ball, two of our prominent members played in a number of first team games, while the Juniors placed more men on the first squad than any other class. In track, the Juniors comprise half of the team, and in all of the inter-class meets the Juniors were well up toward the lead. We turn now to another activity, the debate, where our class was again well repre- sented by having three of its members on the squad. Now, with all that we have undertaken fully accomplished, we look forward to our last year at Westpo.rt, and there also we hope to triumph, for with added experience and fresh confidence we shall ever uphold the honor of the Junior Class of 'l5.

Both amounts seemed impossible, because I never could get hold of enough money to take care of my actual wants. Finally I began to consider the time when I should be grown up and I must engage in some kind of business. I learned that merchants and manufacturers had to begin with money, and so I was determined to save every cent I could, to prepare for the right kind of start. I learned that a savings account could be started with the WESTPORT AVENUE BANK with so small a sum as 31.00, and although I felt somewhat ashamed to take four silver quarters to the bank to open an account, I was agreeably surprised to find that the cashier' treated me with as much courtesy as though I were depositing 31,000.00. My deposits after that were few and far between. I knew that the money that was laid away was secure and was drawing compound interest. I now had the ambition to make and save more money. With a willingness to devote my spare time to work, numerous ways were open for me to earn a quarter here and a dollar there. After I had saved 325.00 I decided it was time to learn how to be independent, so I used some of this money to buy a new suit and other clothing. Having earned and saved the money on my own account, I became critical about what I got for my dollars. At the time I was obliged to buy more clothing, I had 365.00 in the bank and making money was not nearly so difficult a task as it had been before. Now my bank account is over 3100.00 and I have learned the value of money so well that I know as soon as I complete school I can pay my own way and still lay aside a surplus. I have decided to learn some useful business and work my way up in it, saving my money all the time so that when I know the business well I shall be able to engage in it on my own account. I have made the acquaintance of a great many men who are capable but who lack money to start in business for themselves-and knowing that these are the best years of my life and that the future will depend largely upon what I do now, I am making the best of every moment and every effort. - WILL B.
