If you were pleased with your present circumstance, if you were contented to struggle no more, if you were happy as you are, would you strive to progress, to accomplish something greater? No, you would probably say! Such an answer would show that that vital spark which distinguishes the human race is extinct in your heart. Truly, the progress of humanity depends almost solely upon the. ambition of the people to better their conditions, no matter how well they may be situated. Ambition serves to instil a spirit of rivalry, ambition brings about progress-for the better and higher things of life, both materialistic and spiritualg it fires men to do the original, the unprecedented. But-ambition must be of the right kind, there is ambition for fame and notoriety, for Wealth and power, and for service. The desire for fame and notoriety lies deep in the hearts of most people. How many of us do not love praise and glory? How many would not Wish to be some famous personality in the day,s news. Few, I fear. Fame is the magnet that draws multitudes to its polesg that causes men to attempt and to accomplish great thingsg that sends men across mighty barriers to discover new poles. Although a large portion of illustrious people are actuated only by a thirst for notoriety, yet many accomplish useful and worthwhile things. What matters, we might ask, if one did aim at fame, providing he has actually done some lasting good for humanity? Little! Yet it does matter, for certainly the 'value of the prize is enhanced, if pure and noble emotions won it. Power and wealth have instigated men to do infinite good and to cause great suffering, destruction, and harm, they bring out the best and the worst in their characters. Some men, driven by the lust for power and riches, have caused terrible ruing others of more stable character have used their ability and power as an instrument of service and inspiration. Of the former type history has many examples. Who does not know that Napoleon, inflamed by a mad purpose to subjugate the World, drove through Europe with his fiery legions and nearly conquered it, that the pain and destruction he precipitated will forever brand him? He was, indeed, a genius, but the havoc he wrought clearly testifies to the misdirection of his talents. We can well see that ambition is not a commendable thing, if it is not directed along the right channels. An honorable purpose alone justifies our existence. The other kind of ambition, that for service, I feel, is the basic principle that makes the successful man. In the last analysis, we can only justify our existence by that point, for what is the use of living if we are going to be human parasites? Were We created to be leeches? Does ought else besides ambition cause men to progress, to create, organize, and carry out projects? The lives of illustrious men, of famous men, will move us to realize the extent that service cO0Illl'l1i1l9d on Page 2462 tit 7 lil?

S .X P . . 2 - . ., , are but fields of cnde ivor in which each individual is working with and for others, partaking of all individual aims and ambitions and cooperating with the whole group. All is a part .of learning. How well we have learned the lesson of group adjustment determines the ability to serve. Sometimes the more immediate purpose of learning-namely, learning to make a living-dims the greater purpose, learning to live. Learning to live implies contact with others, working for self? but at the same time keeping in mind a more distant but greater goal, the aims of the class, the welfare of the school, and the progress of society as a whole. VVe must recognize in others their rights and privileges. Since our work is to be among other fellows, we must know how to meet them, to recognize, naturally and easily, nobility of character in anyone, however circumstanced. The pages of the Blue Chick are filled with pictures of personalities. On them we have made our influence. They in turn have influenced us. Individual achievement in school can well be compared to personal success in later life. Each is dwarfed by the greater service to the classmates, to the school, and to society. All learning, all abilities, all social powers are but opportunities for service, and for the use of these opportunities everyone is held accountable. 'iii 20 lil? MR. LEVVIS B.

The purpose 3 of the committee is to aid, advise, and help any pupil concerning his course. Miss Robertson, chairman of the program committee, prepared programs on honesty and courtesy for the home rooms. These programs met with success. ' A new Permanent Record Folder has been adopted which contains all necessary data for the permanent record of each pupil. It is in use for all 11B, 10A, IOB, 9A, 9B Classes. The card does away with the Organization and Registration Cards. Members of the Guidance Committee visit all eighth grade schools to advise them concerning their courses for High School. The parents meet the members the same evening, to confer with them about the courses they have chosen for their children. t . sit 273+ Mxss Nmu S'l'I'AR'I' M M M Miss Er.1zAnl4:'1'1r J.

HE following is a yearly resume of the log of the good ship Cherry and W VVhite on one of her regular four year cruises on the High', Seas. 3 This material is taken from the personal log of one who made the trip and also from the quite detailed log of Captain Talbot and Ex-Captain, now Vice Commodore, Wagner. This was the cruise of February 1930. February 1926-February 1927. We came on board four hundred strong, not knowing much, nor that either. So motley and so large a crew, we have reason to believe, had never stridden up the gang plank of the Cherry and Whitef, Although we all had a bit of experience in fresh water sailing, and were quite willing to show what little we did know when it wasn,t needed, or was out of place, we were landlubbers as far as any real seamanship was concerned. The first and, incidentally, the worst thing we got in our heads was that we we1'e passengers. But, after the first red letter day had passed, we awakened to the fact that we were now sailing a vessel that took lots of work to handle, and passengers were politely asked to get off and walk. Enjoyable times almost too good to be true, equalled on board, greeted us within the first year. heard that the colors of the 'tCherry and Whitev in Water Seamanship, and had also conquered our football for the first time in years. A holiday was and never before or since Almost simultaneously we were National Champions ancient rivals, Chester, in declared on board for the first victory, and so great was the enthusiasm over the second that we all hollered till we got another holiday. But we soon snapped out of this when Captain Wagner and his able Mates,' directed us along the paths of toil. In the Second Year of Our Cruise February 1927-February 1928. Things on board the Cherry and White soon began to take definite shape. There was this that you could do, and this that you could not do. And there was just so much pleasure and so much work. Life on board was really rather gay. You had your duties and when you had completed them you were entitled to enjoy the pleasure of projects on the side. Gradually We were coming into our own. Already we had chosen those among that mighty Senior Crew whom we wished to emulate. We also learned that our port, Graduation, was ours to make on schedule, and the Captain and his officers were merely helping us on. The opportunity was given us to select the type of work we wished to do on board, so we could offer no excuse for not completing it satisfactorily. Lastly, we had come to realize what a neat little craft we had, and how excellent were her officers. The Third Year on Board February 1928-1929. Now was the time for real development-making the vessel ship-shape in preparation for our last tack into the Port of Gradua- tion. Four times now we had landed here to deposit the Senior Crew and take on more lubbers', while we moved up.

QTimc: September, 1926. Place: VVilmington High Schoolj. XX GROUP of awestruck Froh slowly walk through the portals of a place where they will study and play for four short years. They gaze its diffidently about, quite bewildered by their new environments. The first contact with high school life and activity comesg a Traffic Squad member quietly leads them to their respective rooms. Thus the Class of ,30 begins its illustrious career. The scene shifts. A lone Freshie', forces his way through the crowded halls and passes the alert T. S,s. He is on his way to the Cafeteria, yet, even though he follows the directions given by a dignified and trusted Senior, he finds to his amazement and discomfort that he has been directed to the girls' gymnasium! A search for the Elevator', next engages his attention. In these and many other ways the green Freshie learns the ropes,,. Then, we see the snake-dance up Market Street, an event in celebration of the winning of the National Swimming championship for the second time. A memorable holiday follows. Following this, we see the beginning of a new era of progress in the school. The lowest of the lower classmen participates in the happy event occasioned by the publication of the first issue of the TV. H. S. News in February of '27. Act II. fTime: Sophomore Year. Place: Halls of W. H. SQ Drama stalks forth. Our grid team knocks down Chester, the Ancient Rival, for the first victory in six years! So enthusiastic does the student body become, that it rushes forth and takes a full holiday, one that it will recall with twinkling eyes of reminiscense. Imbued with a fiery school spirit, the Soph,' girls' basketball team tri- umphs over both the Freshmen and the Senior teams. fThree cheers lj Student Government was the next innovation in Wilmingtoii High School, a project consisting of a Student Council and a House of Delegates. Act III. fTime: Junior Year. Place: The samej In this act, we perceive Mr. VVagner addressing a meeting of the B3 class. He tells them that, because of an epidemic of grippe, no B3 Party will be held: but he promises that during the A3 term the deficiency will be remedied. The class strag-gles noisily out of the auditorium, some be1'ating the announcement, others finding solace in the promised A3 affair. An event occurs that thrills the Juniors. They triumphantly march down the aisles of the auditorium, and haughtily meet the gazes of cheering Seniors. Ah, how mellow will that scene grow in the memory of the Class of '30! Those beautiful chrysanthemums! This bouyant, inflated spirit extends to the gay A3 Party thrownn in t e boys' gymnasium.

Dull, gray-clad labor, and cares, that abound in such ruthless endeavor, Know not, Ye, that memory is bliss, and in vain has Hell tried to sever, To burn, with its evil-tipped flames, the bonds that have held us together, We, who have tasted true friendship, who were inseparable ever. From realms of unbounded distance we were bonded to falter or fail, But to win our dark way through the onslaught of worlds that were new, all deep veiled. Oh thou sweet mother of many, Alma Mater, our queen and our love, Serving first in the sternest necessity, thy restrictions and precepts we loved. When novices were we in thy house, thy house with the gracious wide halls, Our hearts were half conquered with terror, our wonder o'ershadowed by awe, And our eyes, our eyes large with reverence, wont to roam and to stray toward our masters, i l As eagerly, wistfully watching, we whispered, and walked with the fasters. Those glorious lords of creation-would we ever attain such renown-? Those glamorous lords of the nation, so kindly, yet ne'er looking down. Hero-worship-'twere surely misnomer for this servile reception of crumbs, Yet our heroes, our rulers, our princes, those others were surely become. Had the chance to have served such a being, such a majesty, fallen to us, We had died with the joy and the pride. Ah! to dream they would e'er notice us! Till now, face to face with departure, we are leaving these well beloved halls, And amid our chaotic emotions, is the vow that we go to serve all. Lengthening shadows, so wierd in proportion, cluster 'round us, we fling you the challenge! As we smile and proclaim in strong chorus, Go hence, for these treasures are ours! ALICE Monsr: 'iff 112 E4- UI'IIOI CLASS JANUARY 1931 CLASS JUNE 1931 T EE GLASS QDEF 'GH through the portals of Wilmlngton High School. As he stared diffidently around him, he was conscious of frankly amused glances. The little chap 'l l l' HREE short years ago, a small, awkward youngster ambled bashfully had a rather hazy idea that he was in a place identical with none he had ever visited. However, he had no great length of time to ponder over this situation, for he was immediately trundled into classes and deluged with work and advice. Thus did the class of 1931, then known as the Fresh, begin his scholastic career. Since his arrival he has increased in mind and body-and, in varying degrees, in the knowledge of his own importance. During his first year he was righteously awed by his elder schoolmates and superiors. This condition was alleviated to a degree by his first real school experience-the welcoming home of the champion High School Swimmers of the United States. From that epoch, a new era was born for him. He rapidly became more familiar with his environment, until, in his second year, he assumed such an air of arrogance that he received the nomenclature 'fSoph fa degeneration of sap j. Never- theless, his Sophomore year was a crucial one, because he then began to participate actively in the affairs of that uncanny realm indefinitely referred to as Extra-Curricular Activities. He found the task that was not too great nor small to suit his spirit nor prove his powers,', and began to work for the glory of his Alma Mater--and the good of his soul. But he received the thrill of his life at the beginning of the current school year when he became the Junior Class. By this time he had developed into quite a big boy,-intelligent, good-looking, and very, very sure of himself. So mature did he feel that, after throwing one successful party fB3j, he attempted that most difficult, yet truly most delightful task-entertaining his parents. Of course, the affair was successful, for the Class of '31, as his name Qluniorj suggests, was now very clever indeed. As a final gesture he showed the entire school how to celebrate a holiday by staging the Thanksgiving Assembly. But, as he neared his ultimate goal-fall goals are ultimate in a paper of this kindj-he received rather a serious jolt fhis own expressionj. The responsibility and dignified course of life that he must adopt when he becomes the Senior Class was made startlingly evident to him during the last month of the semester. When the 1930 Class bade his Alma Mater farewell with Senior Morning, Class Play, and the Prom, the Class of '31 could only gasp with surprise and admiration. Surely he could never excell, perhaps not equal, such efficiency and finality of effect. At the very least, 1930,s parting program served as an added incentive to greater diligence during his last high-school year and until then-au revoir, and may the Class of 1930 have all the work, play, and success that he deserves.

Class: At last, after eight years of training, the class of '32 was ready to sail the High Seas with their Pirate Ship, in quest of treasure. 'l l'4' Q EACHER: Boys and girls, we have only a few minutes of this History The first year upon the ship was trying. Some carelessly dove for treasure, never to return above the surface of the water. Some took life easy, making merry, while others did their work. They were soon discovered by the Chief Pirates, and were marooned on a lonely island' But there were many who put the best that was in them into their work, always hoping that someday they would find that great treasure, the treasure of Success in Life. They did not always have to work. They had their times of Sport. The first year, several groups of Pirates from the ship were chosen by the Chiefs of Sport. They were called Teams. These Teams went in search of the chests of Championship, containing the treasures of Basketball, Football, Swimming, Hockey, and Tennis. The Pirate Team of the Class 1932 showed real sports- manship. Then, in the latter part of January, 1929, the Pirates had to fight that dreadful Pirate Ship Failure Although a few individuals lost, the Class of 1932 came out victorious. In February, 1929, the Class started a new year of Adventure on the High Seas. Some Pirates thought they would take life easy for a time, and not work. Soon they discovered that they were letting small, but valuable treasures pass by them unheeded. It was too late, however, for, when they went back to look for the lost treasures, their ship forged far ahead. There were others, who, though discouraged at times, still put the best that was in them into their work. Their motto was: 'If at first we don't succeed, we'll try and try ,till we do.' Each half year the pirates selected a leader, from their class, to be the President. From September, 1929, until February, 1930, the B2 Class Presi- dent was Howard Stayton, and the A2 Class President was Allen Jenkins. Then again the groups of Pirates from the ship were chosen by the Chiefs of Sport. Again, the Teams went in search of the chests of Champion- ship. The Class of 1932 showed even more sportsmanship than ever before. This time, the Sophomore Team won the Championship in Girls' Swim- ming. Naomi Corrie, of the Class of 1932, broke a swimming record, which made the Class very proud of her. Another outstanding swimmer on the Sophomore team was Jane Glover. An outstanding Pirate of Boys' Basketball was James Wallace. In the .... Teacher: That will do Class! There is the bell.

N February of 1929, we entered into this greater institution of learning as the most trivial of the insignificant. Here our pride, attained during our 3 last year in grammar school, was dashed earthward. Our humiliation was so overpowering and our desire to escape ridicule was so great that we hurried to our assigned rooms fif we could find themj far from the sight of the stately senior. A bell rang and a member of the Traffic Squad entered our room. We prepared for the defense, but no attack came. He had come to lead us to the auditorium, where the seniors were waiting to Welcome us falthough we did not expect a welcomej with several sympathetic speeches. ,Though we had entered this school with the understanding that terrible things awaited us, nothing outrageous happened. After the members of our class became better acquainted, we elected home room officers. Two or three weeks later, class officers were elected. The result was as follows: First Term: President, Elman Stausbachg Vice-President, Margaret Knox, Secretary, Harriet Finnertyg Treasurer, Newton VVhite. Two of our illustrious students, Elman Stausbach and Virginia Boston, were sent to Washington, D. C. to place a wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier. Examinations and time lessened the childishness of our inexperienced minds, and as the second semester passed, so far had we progressed, that the term green hom suited us not at all. At last February rolled around once more and our Freshman days were over. I +21 123 E+ JJFEP.

Just as the machinery is a vital factor in the operation of the factory, Extra-Curricular Activities are a vital part of the school life. 'l l l' OW complete is a school without Extra-Curricular Activities? You Student participation in school activities leads to a greater interest in the school as well as in the activity. Instead of a dispassionate regard for their source of learning, the pupils have a true school spirit, with no interest in mind other than the glory of their Alma Mater. The different organizations of the school are of a highly educational character, for, while the pupil is taking part in the activities of the organiza- tion, he is receiving instructions relative to its purpose. Since education extends to a knowledge of your fellow men, these activities further education by giving pupils the opportunity of getting acquainted. There is no doubt but that Extra-Curricular Activities are beneficial to the Student Body. The election of officers in the various organizations develops leadership to a high degree, and, within the members of the organiza- tion, the tendency is toward productive cooperation. These activities prepare the pupils for their future, and aid in the choice of a vocation as they acquaint them with many phases of education and broaden their minds with a taste of social activityf' The qualities of these activities are of such a nature as to bring out the best in the pupil's character, and to urge him to greater efforts in order to be better qualified for World Citizenship. There has never been found a better way of gathering knowledge than in the school of experiencef' and Extra-Curricular Activities give this knowledge by furnishing the experience. +Zf125lZ4' HOVVARD SCHULTZ l'rr.wi1l1fnf, Sfllfll'lIf K'uun1'iI, First S1'rm'st0r 126 E?

The Student Association is composed of the Student Council fcorres- ponding to the U. S. Senatej, the House of Delegates fcorresponding to the House of Representativesj, the governing bodies, and all students who buy Activities Tickets? Each member of the Student Council superintends a committee, composed of members of the House of Delegates. Each committee has under its care some specific sphere of work. The following are the com- mittees: Lost and Found Committee. Athletic Committee. Poster Committee. Service Committee. Improvement Committee. Publicity Committee. Point System Committee. Assembly Committee. Activity Sales Card Committee. VVays and Means Committee. Charter Committee. The most important innovations of the Association are 1. The Budget System. 2. Point System. 3. Lost and Found Department. The Budget System is a method of pooling money to pay school expenses. Each student pays one dollar and seventy-five cents a term for a Student Association Ticket which eliminates club dues, admission charges to athletic games, and subscription to the News and YVhisp. The Point System aims to stimulate interest in Extra Curricular Activi- ties and, at the same time to prevent-onef'student from holding too many offices in various activities. The Lost and Found Department has proven a most effective medium for the transmission of lost articles from finder to loser. Sponsor, Miss Caroline M. Fitzwater.

Previously the gowns were loaned to the Society through the courtesy of St. Paul's Church and the Latin Department. , With the trip to Washington in view, members of the Society sold Christ- mas cards during the first term and writing paper in the second term to help defray the expenses incurred by the trip. i The new members of the second term were initiated in the same manner as those of the first term. This occurred on Friday, March 7, 1930. Speeches illustrating the four ideals of the National Honor Society, Character, Leadership , t'Scholarship , and Service,' were delivered by Herman Sim- mons, Sylvia Van Pelt, William Rickel, and Aleen Richards, respectively. After Louis Feinstein, president, gave the oath to the new members, Reverend Aquilla Webb of the First Central Presbyterian Church spoke to the assembly. The greatest, most enjoyable event on the social calendar of the Society,- one toward which every one looks with anticipation, and, in truth, for which each pupil in the whole student body, who has any hope of becoming a member of that august body, waits-was the trip -to VVashington. The members of the club, while in the capital, experienced the most enjoyable occurence in their high school career. The members of the Society finished their successful year at a picnic, which was held at Miss Lynam,s home, June 12, 1930. It seems that not only does membership in the National Honor Society betoken great honor and academic success, but it also brings moments of the purest joy and of the keenest of youthful experience. To be a member is indeed an honor. -fit 132 tif' UCIETY S NOR 0 JNAI. H NA'l If L -.. z sl 2 a VJ 'E S L 5 ,Q TRAFFIC SQUAD A W SEMA 'l I l' OFFICERS First Term Second Term President ALv1N B.

Order must be established in any organization before anything can be accomplished, hence, the existence of the Traffic Squad in VVilmington High School. N the modern world the necessity for order is becoming more apparent every The Traffic Squad has become an efficient unit by which traflic in the halls is controlled. lVIoreover, its activities have been broadened to include supervision of study halls and lunch rooms, a plan which gives Traffic Squad members valuable training in leadership. Because of the extra work which the Squad', has taken over this year, it has become necessary to increase its personnel and to organize various groups for special work. However, the sponsors are do-ing all in their power to make the group one which is representative of scholarship, leadership, and service. The Assembly Committee attends to the organization and seating of the assemblies, the supervising of halls during the assemblies, and the passing of students to the auditorium in an orderly manner. The Correction Board disciplines those cases which are brought to its attention by Traffic Squad members. Pupils, who do not yield to the usual persuasive methods, are reported to the Correction Board which considers the ease and which, if necessary, punishes offenders, i -if 1 35 113+ I i i H ll hzsp 1 W llmmuton High 94-hool's quarterly magazine.

By giving the first successful Tea Dansrmt, the Book and Quill Club has contributed a charming feature to the entire life of VVilmington High School. These dansants are given after school hours in the girls' gymnasium. They have proved a great success. All who attended the assembly in charge of the Book and Quill Club on December third enjoyed it immensely, partly due to the fact that Dr. George Ryden, head of the History Department at the University of Delaware, was present. Dr. Ryden gave a talk, entitled The Romance of Research in Delaware History. The Book and Quill Club has shown a decided increase in its membership over last year. The present Junior and Senior classes must maintain the present high standard, not only by attending the meetings regularly, but also by contributing to the programs. -if 145 53? COMBINED DEBATE CLUBS K A I GE M S I EBATING in VVilmington High School took the greatest strides of its existence during the season of 1929 and 1930. The three clubs, Freshman, Sophomore, and Senior, were extremely active in the work which their coaches had outlined for them. Mr. Des Jardines was coach of the Sophomores and Millikin instructed the Seniors and Freshmen, along with the Varsity. The Freshmen covered instruction and discussed activities: the S0pll0l1101'OH undertook impromptu speeches and prepared debate: the Seniors and Juniors, coming nearer the finished debate product, indulged in prepared debate and a most interesting variation of debate work, the Mock Trial. At the end of the first semester this big program was concluded by an all-debate Banquet held in the Cafeteria. VVithout a doubt, the biggest thing the debate clubs have yet done is represented by their admission into the National Forensic League, in November of last year. In order to gain admission to this national organization the school must be accredited, and have had a wonderful debate program over a period of two years: the students in the inter-scholastic contests must have all to- gether compiled 100 points in accordance with the point system set down by the League: and, finally, the students who make these points must be in the upper third of their class. Point awards are made on the following system: students in Class A High School, such as ours, receive twelve points for each victorious forensic encounter, nine points for each tie, and six points for a defeat. When a student has ten points to his credit, he is entitled to enter the National Forensic League and receive a Degree of Merit: thirty points entitles him to a Degree of Honor: sixty points to the Degree of Excellence: and 100 points to the final Degree of Distinction. Six members of the Varsity Debate Squad were awarded degrees and pins at the Good English VVeek Assembly. Miss Millikin presented the follow- ing awards: Owen Saddler and Edmund Fuller, Degree of Merit, James Rosbrow and Harvey Maguigan, Degree of Honor: James Nichols and Earl Shelton, Degree of Excellence. The schedule for the '29-'30 Season, up to the end of the first semester, had brought in four victories and one tie, retaining a no-defeat record.

The play chosen ii was the Thirteenth Chair, a mystery by Bayard Veiller. The success of the presentation Inay be attributed to three points: the east, the departure from the usual type of play presented in the High Sehoolg aIId the efforts of the coaclI, lVIiss Robertson. The first meeting of the club, held in the Attic Theatre, was a tea in honor of tlIe new members. At a later Ineeting, it was decided to divide the club into two groups, the Drews and the Garricks. Each group had its own coach, a member of that group, and prepared a one act play which was pre- sented in the Auditorium on January 10, 1930. The winning group, Drew, was presented with a silver loving cup donated by Miss Robertson and some of her friends. On the date assigned the Drew group presented The Man Upstairs by Augustus Thomas, and the Garrick group presented Evening Clothes Indispensible, by Roland Pertwee. Both plays were very good, but the judges awarded the cup to the Drew group. The Attic Theatre was renovated and it is now quite a cozy place. +24 1419 lt?

V The College Stick, a two-act comedy by Lillian Stoll, was chosen to be presented in the auditorium. The story of the play is concerned with the college life of Mary VVinter, the College Stieku. During a vacation, she mysteriously changes into a charming young lady, quite up-to-the-minutev. Another play given by the members was entitled No! Quite Such a Goose, a comedy written by Elizabeth Gale. Because of its humor and rare interest, it won instant approval when presented. George Vennum, President, has been very active and has contributed much to the progress the club has enjoyed.

Its name is the Senatus Popuflusqiue I Romanus, abreviated to S. P. Q. R. The first event of the year, the election of officers in the old Roman way, admirably fulfilled the purpose of the club. The officers were elected in the same manner as those of ancient Rome. The club was first divided into the Comftia Centuriata, which may be compared to the modern election district, and then the voting proceeded in tlIe undemocratic fashion used by tlIe ancient Romans. At the next meeting, the Pontifex Maximus administered the oath to the new officers, whose duties were varied. The consuls presided at alternate Ineet- ings. The Censors acted as secretaries, the Quaestors, as treasurersg whereas the Curule Aediles, aided by teachers of the Latin Department., arranged all the programs. The greatest event of the year was the Saturnalia, an ancient festival, which the Romans celebrated in December. The program began in the audi- torium with a burlesque, entitled Very Trngical lllirth. III a humorous manner it described, through shadow pictures, the wanderings and tribulations of Pins Aeneas as he fied from Troy to Rome. A colorful dance, the Roman lVate1' Carriers, depicted Roman women conversing on their way to the public water fountain. In the boys, gymnasium, which was artistically decorated with crepe paper and banners, the guests played several Roman games. Then the boys of the Sophomore Class presented tableaux portraying historical events. The final attraction was the banquet made realistic by following Roman customs and ceremonies as far as possible. .The Saturnalia ended with a blare of horns, which kept the true Italian spirit. The theme of one program was Magic in Roman Religion. Some Sophomore girls dramatized the AquaZic:iuf1n, a ceremony to produce rain by sympathetic magic. Then, they imitated another rain ceremony in which the players, called Argii, solemnly threw straw puppets into the river Tiber. Other dramatizations were the Lemuria and Fernlia. fContinued on page 264D aff 159 LE CERCLE FRANCAIS If ME QEME ANQAEIS 'l l I' OFFICERS First Term Second Term President JAMES Rosnnow ETHEL Lou BRADY Vice-President JOSEPHINE ALLEN DonoT11EA BAUGHMAN Secretary ELIZABETH HICKMAN BELMoN'r FAmEs OXVEN SADLER ISADORE TANZER -' departmental clubs in the High School except the Literary Society ' of the Senior Class.

In November the members presented an attractive program, which consisted of talks about Indians, the display of Indian relics, and the singing of Indian songs. In December, the members visited one of the historic spots of VVilmington that has not, yet, given way to modernization-The Old Town Hall. In January a charming play, dealing with the Civil VVar, was presented. Throughout the whole year the club has enjoyed exceptionally fine pro- grams and instructive dissertations. af 164 iii?

With that idea in view the programs were planned to have something of an educational value and to provide recreation, too, so that the student might see that mathematics is not such a dry subject after all. The first meeting was a demonstration in Cookie Making. A paper was read by Miss Stuart showing the correlation of Mathematics with the Art and Science of Cooking. Frances Woods gave the actual demonstration of the process of making the cookies, calling the attention to the mathematical forms in the equipment, the ingredients, and the process. The artistic side of mathematics in this project was illustrated by mounted pictures cut from magazines, showing beautifully arranged table settings, and a series of artistic breakfasts, luncheons, and dinners. These were explained by Marguerite Jack- son, Lucille Garton, and Thelma Rodman. A poem Learn to Keep House was read by Audrey Hayden. Tea and cookies were served by the hostesses, Ruth Davis, Rose Chambers, and Pauline Campbell. The second program was, also, a very interesting one. Mr. Musser gave a talk on The Signs of the Zodiac in which he explained the mathematics of the solar system, and the supposed effect of Zodiacal constellations on the character of a person. The boys were quite anxious to know their achievement and personality colors, as well as their successful fields of work. The third program was a very practical talk on The Matheznatics of the Naval Academy at Annapolis by Mr. Frank Reynolds, vice-president of the Board of Education. Mr. Reynolds, who is a graduate of Annapolis, emphasized the necessity of accuracy and thoroughness in Mathematics in its application to naval training. At the last meeting of the first semester, Bliss Cochran spoke on the Relation of Mathematics to Art. Another interesting program consisted of a dress show in which the application of mathematics to dress design was shown. As a whole, the club has vividly portrayed mathematics in everyday life. elif 167 its COMMERCE CLU B GDED I GEI GERHJE 'l l l' FIRST TERM OFFICERS Group I Group II President DOROTHY SKLAR JAMES MITCHELL Vice-President ERMA BOWMAN AIIBERTA WILSON Recording Secretary HOWARD CLARK MABEL MORAN Corresponding Secy.

Because 3 of the division in the Senior Commercial Class, the club is divided into two groups, Group I and II. Q The purpose of this club is to create more interest in business, and to prepare the student to meet the requirements in business competition. Prominent business men and women address the club from time to time. In addition, there are many social activities which enable the students and teachers to become better acquainted. Much of the success of this club is due to the interest and effort. of the Sponsor and to the Commercial teachers. 231691-24- CHEMISTRY CLUB GE EE SW Y 'EEHHJE 'l l l' OFFICERS l'1'csident 'PHOMAS NEWELL Vice-President CARQLYN MULLINS Secretary DonoTHi-:A VVILLIAMS Treasurer ABIIAHAM GOLDEN . HE Chemistry Club has as its objective a better comprehension of and ll a greater interest in the science of chemistry and its applications to i industry. This purpose the club attempts to accomplish by sponsoring trips to nearby plants, such as the Worth Steel Plant at Claymont, Delaware, the Willxlington Gas Company, and the Pyrites Plant. During the first sem- ester, members of the club visited the Worth Steel VV0rks where they were fascinated by the many and varied applications of chemical processes. At the regular meetings which convene each three weeks, the students' understanding of the subject is increased by talks given both by faculty members and by speakers from different industries. Mr. Loomis of the Physics Department addressed one of the meetings, he spoke concerning the exactness of science. -if 171 W M 'l l l' OFFICERS First Term Second Term Prgsidgnt IDANIEL I'IERIlMANN IMINALD Bifimixo Vice-President HFlI,EN 'FIERNEY AIAKY JE1cvis Sem-gmruy NIARY Jmcvls JEAN l'Eix1ceE T1-mgurgr XVl1.soN IQILLINGSI.

The number enrolled in the Physics Club has probably exceeded that of former terms. Trips to many industrial plants throughout the city and nearby points have provided interesting, instructive, and enjoyable programs. These inspections of plants have given the students first hand knowledge of the application of physics to modern industry. To increase still more the club spirit, pins were adopted to signify membership. During the year, members of the faculty and many prominent men in industrial and research work have addressed the Physics Club. Many phases of the subject were clearly presented by moving pictures at several of the meetings. 172 K A W N M '! l l' OFFICERS President First Term Second Term Vice-Presirlent ICLEANOR BIYCHANAN DIARGARET BIEALEY Secretary ANNABEI,I.E SINIITH E'rHr:I.

J. DONALD BEST OUNGEST of the Extra-Curricular Activities of VVilmington High School is the Radio Club. When organized in October, 1929, its 3 primary purpose was set forth as the complete radiofication of Wilmington High School. During the first semester of its existence, the organization was taught radio technique by Mr. E. Brant Boylan, Chief Engineer of VVILM at the studios of the Delaware Broadcasting Company. Trips have been made to the factories and laboratories of the Radio-Victor Corporation of America at Camden, N. J. Such prominent men as Mr. H. E. Kaign, Mr. Herbert Hunter, Mr. H. B. Duncan, Mr. William Frederick, and Mr. I.. B. Hathorn, all radio engineers, have consulted with members of the club. Plans as they now stand call for a mike in Mr. Talbot's office, a large dynamic reproducer in the auditorium, the cafeteria, and each of the gyms, and magnetic speakers in all the homerooms. By means of this system Mr. Talbot can command the attention of the entire student body at once. Many of the educational programs now being broadcast will be made available to the various departments. The construction of a short wave receiver, with the ultimate goal an amateur radio station, is another ideal on which the organization is working. Several members have built short-wave receivers of their own design, and report trans-oceanic and trans-continental receptions. As there are no more than forty amateur stations operated by High Schools in the United States, most of which are in technical schools, this second project of the Radio Club may bring distinction to Wilmington High School.

VVhat kind of a success would A any business man be, if he were confined to an office all day long with no chance of recreation or exercise? VVould his mind be able to function properly and would his disposition remain amiable? Of course not! This illustration might just as well be applied to school pupils as to business men: for what pupil, who studies all day long in school and goes home in the eve- ning without any beneficial exercise, can perform his school work in a satis- factory manner? The great importance, then, of athletics in the school is to develop the pupils physically, and, in this strengthening of the body, the mind is also made stronger and more productive. Athletics provide necessary physical development in giving the pupils an opportunity to participate in all sports conducted by the school. To take part in these various sports, the pupils try out', for the teams, the most successful candidates being placed on the Varsity to compete with other schools. These teams, selected by competition, organized and coached by able in- structors, and totally inspired with thoughts of victory, comprise those pupils who, by their superior qualities of clear reasoning and physical alertness, must uphold with success the glo1'y of their Alma Mater in the athletic field. Outstanding in school athletics is t.he maxim of sportsmanship. VVhether won or lost-games played square,', purely for love of the contest and the sport, have a great infiuence in ennobling the characters of the team members. In these games the team is drawn more closely together thereby promoting friendship and cooperation as well as the important element of leadership. During each athletic season the enti1'e student body watch eagerly the activities of their team. They are filled with a greater pride and respect for the school when it emerges with the bacon,'g for the team represents the school. It is the product of the school and, therefore, exemplifies its purpose-to produce a sound mind in a sound bodyv. at 179 is r 1 f vs. wi- 4 , ,. .:..: +, ..- .4-5 , 1 i g.. in ' - in 1 l .n 4 ,.- 3 vi-4.151 W ,- - af- '4 'W 'J 431 ,ugv : 9 j ,... is ' . a.

H. S. met Swartlnnore Prep team which outweighed ours ten pounds to the man. W'ithout getting a start the VVilmington team lost 37-0. An almost identical repetition of this occurred on the following Saturday, when Chester, the ancient rival, scored 7-0 against Reeseis men. At the next game on November Sith, however, YV. H. S. had scored 7-0 in the game with York during the first live minutes, but, since they slowed up, the final result was 11+-7. At Tome, November 16th, the High team encountered its worst defeat in several years. The score was 5i-0. However, the jinx that was continually dogging Sam's men was overcome when the W. H.

Fourteen K opponents were met in the course of this time. Led by Captain Johnny Warner, and assisted by his running mate Jake Shaeffer, at the forward position, the team annexed ten of the fourteen starts. The four reverses were suffered at the hands of Tome, P. I. D., Swarth- more, and Atlantic City High. Jimmy', Wallace was at the pivot position for the Highlets during the greater part of the season. Due to an injury received in one of the games, Jimmy was on the side-lines during the completion of the schedule. Benn Cohen stepped into the breach and performed in fine fashion. At the two defensive positions were VVindy,' Wiengarten and Smoky Davis. These two Highlets played a bang-upn defensive game throughout the season. Some of the teams that were met and defeated were Beacom and Goldey Colleges, Chester High School, and P. M.

It was largely through the efforts of Sam Reese, and Gil Grady, that the Cherry and White tankmen sent three of their opponents to the short end of the scores. The tankmen were handicapped at the outset of the season through the inability of Bill,' Hill. Later in the season Hill joined the squad and made up for his lost time by assisting the Cherry and White Splashers bring home a few more victories. Baltimore City College, Norristown H.

HERE are two distinct divisions of dramatics in VVilmingt0n High H SchoolQthe Combined Glee Clubs and the two dramatic clubs, the I Citamards and the Thespians. Although the Combined Glee Clubs are auxiliaries to the music department, nevertheless they form a close part of the dramatic activities in our school. The value that accrues from these two activities amply justifies their existence here. One of the main aims of secondary education is to cause a student to find himself , i.e. to discover in what direction his talents might lie. Many pupils who wish to pursue some work allied with dramatics, have an opportunity to do so by becoming a member of the clubs. After the student has actively participated in a few plays, he can then decide whether or not his preconceived notion was based upon any true ability, and, if so, can mould his career accordingly. Not only does this show a student his correct path, but, if it does become his aim, it gives him a foretaste of the real obstacles to be eneounte1'ed, and gives him a little praetiee. Drama- tics serve as a valve for the super-charged ego and a treadmill for the doubtful talent. The pleasure members derive from these activities repays the tedious and lengthy labor involved, for these clubs, so to speak, become training schools for those who wish to gain an ability to entertain friends at social gatherings of divers sorts. A balance between the rigors of school work and pleasure is made by supplying a worthwhile and interesting diversion. ' On the other hand, the practice that participation in these activities gives serves to impart an ability to speak easily at any gathering, to express one self with smoothness, and to, in general, exercise more poise, things which are great assets to business men. One can hardly appreciate the many influences dramatic training creates in the character of an individual, but certainly one can realize their more immediate worth, both in school and immediately outside. all 195 Es THE BOOMERANGH I QQ I AM +54 .

His treatment meets with a brilliant success, to the satisfaction of Bud,s mother, Mrs. VVoodbridge, who has been overly concerned about the state of her young son's health.

HILIPPA GETS THERE is the name of the Senior play, June 1930. It is a rollicking, enjoyable piece, full Of humorous situations and in- 3 teresting characters. The production, coached by Miss Edith Robert- son, dramatic sponsor of the school, is the story concerning an art collector who has just purchased a famous and expensive picture. His daughter, Dora, is in love with a young actor of whom the father disapproves. He orders him out of the house, but the young man, in order to be near his lady-love, conceives the bright idea of impersonating his twin sister, Philippa, whom no one knows except Dora. He successfully carries out the impersonation, and, in the mean- time, succeeds in unearthing a pair of crooks who had entered the house as members of society in order to steal the picture. Phil's deception is finally discovered when the father receives a telegram from Philippa stating that she will arrive that night. Matters are finally explainedg the irate father consents to the marriage of the two on strength of the fact that Phil saved his picture. There are numerous other farce-like situations among a fake French count, a Swedish maid, who later appears to be a private detective, and the lady crook, who vamps the father.

'l l l' HE highest point of interest in the programs that the members of the George Markovitz and Cloyd Johnson opened the program with some lively tap dancing. Burton Wilson played a violin solo, and Louise Tarantino followed with a vocal solo. Throughout the entire program Gene Gaumer and Gerald Kadel flitted hither and thither in the capacity of comedy fdumbj waiters. A dialogue, entitled The Crystal Gazer, was enacted by Margaret Mitchell and Delma Smith. Rather in contrast, but equally enjoyed were the Wilmington High School Orchestra and its newest competitor, the Kitchenette Orchestra, conducted by Muriel Rubincam. The High School Orchestra pre! sented The Perfect Song, its rival gave several rather imperfect selections. David Chalmers sang the Road to Mandalay and the Chant of the Jungle. A formal dance by six couples completed this hilarious program. Joseph X. Labovsky was Chairman of the program, and Earl Shelton acted as Toastmaster. H2019- CHAIR NTH HE THIRTEE GT H I IEDM W AR Z HE Citamards presented the three act mystery play, The Thirteenth H Chair, to a full house on the evening of Friday November 1, 1930. The 3 author of the play, Bayard Veiller, is also the author of the famous Trial of Mary Dugan. The Thirteenth Chair is a murder mystery, which takes place in the house of a wealthy New York Lawyer, Mr. Crosby. In attempting to solve the secret of one murder through the medium of a spiritualistic seance, a second murder is committed in the dark. The son of the house, Will Crosby, has just announced his engagement to his mother,s secretary, Helen 0'Neil. She is under suspicion because of having been in the rooms of the first murdered man a little while before his death. Matters are complicated when the medium, Madame La Grange, turns out to be Helen O'Neil,s mother. Through her ingenuity the mystery is solved, the murderer confesses, and VVill and Helen are left to live happily ever after.

The musical portion of the production was coached by Mrs. Gallery, sponsor of the club, the dramatic end was under the direction of Miss Robertson, and the dancing choruses, which were numerous and quite novel, were led by McCloskey. The story was extremely vivaeious, and the musical numbers were very modern and tuneful. The plot itself was very interesting and intriguing, besides the modernity and vivacity of the musical web of the operetta. Alan O'Day, a wealthy Easterner, wished Sandy Bank's hand in marriage, but she would not accept because her mother desired Alan's money. The action shifted to Alan's dude', ranch, a diversion to drown his unhappiness, near which the mother moved together with her daughter. Sandy was involved in a series of comical and breath-taking situations after her niece, Geraldine Bank, became the owner of some rich oil land adjacent to Alan's ranch. Sandy emerged successfully from her dilemma and finally realized the faithfulness of her friends who were protecting her interests. She was reconciled to Alan. With this the story ended happily.

Mr. Allen's was the most fragrant, since it was a vegetable bouquet W I Q W IA IK S -1--1-+ ' . F a full house and a large number turned away from the door are a mark of success for a play, then, the Faculty play was an overwhelming successg 3 many people purchased reserved seats at seventy-five cents. However, we, the student body, look askance at such a suggestion. The more we think about it, the more irrcsistably we are drawn to the conclusion that curiosity on the part of many people to vindicate their previous impressions of the VV. H. S. Faculty caused the huge crowd. Of course, that,s our private opinion. The play was a three-act comedy depicting the comic attempts of a group of amateur actors and actresses to present a play in opposition to the wishes of the husband of the leading lady. lNIr. Frederick Ritter, the husband, en- tirely disapproved of his wife's enthusiastic desire to ultimately become a great. actress. When Mrs. Pampinelli, the producer of the play, rehearsed it at Mr. Ritter's house, he fainted, and remained in the unconscious state for twenty-four hours, that is, until the play was presented. The most hilarious part came behind scenes at Horticultural Hall where the amateur play was given. Mr. Steen, who played the part of an imbecile very well, almost, or rather, he did ruin the play. The final act was given in Mr. Ritter's house. Mrs. Pampinelli convinced Mrs. Ritter that the New York stage was the only fit place for her talents, but Mr. Ritter by a series of tricks and sarcastic remarks in the end brought her to the realization that the family came before the stage. Mr. Allen, in the part of an outraged man, did some excellent shouting. In fact, he was hoarse the next day because of his vocal exertions-fperhaps induced by the party which took place after the playl. Mr. Loomis attempted to carry on the old tradition of VVilmington High School that no play should be presented without the scenery falling. A play within a play is considered one of the hardest productions to successfully present, but the faculty didg for more howls of laughter were occasioned at The Torchberzrers than at many previous plays. During the intermissions, the members of the cast received of the scullion variety. Miss Robertson coached the play.

And, drifting on, did never seem like measured space With Father Time, a captain, at the helmg Then light and dark would be one glorious day, And journeying through this land I would alone Set my course, for, selfish creature that I am, I would have no other with me, No other hand upon the wheel except mine own. But alas! this is but a wild fantasy, For, when one has spent his time in dreaming thus, And is by some cruel force Brought back to life in mockery, It only 'rouses more his black disgust And makes more plain the eloek-like rules of Course.

He was a child of eighteen years A silent creature And in the study of his works He did be-mar his features. He studied every day and night By midnight oil His eyes and ears grew dark, and then, With hours of toil At first his feet and legs did melt From solid ground. Then all the residue was seen To crumble down Until at last the one thing left A noble brow Was graced with a crown which said School, and I, are over now.

It is awarded annually to a deserving girl who has been a leader in scholar- ship and school activities. The continuation of this scholarship will depend to a very great extent upon the enrollment of the outcoming graduates in the association. if 241 lie AELHJWHIMH ASSQGCHAH GDN School Number One, VV1lm1ngton, Delaware, met at the school for the purpose of forming in alumni association. The purpose of the organi- zation was to promote interest in the activities of the school and to perpetuate the memories of the institution. E 'l l l' URING the months of May and June, the Graduating Class of 1875 of The life of the organization has been a hard one. Some years, due to the laxity of its officers, it has ceased to function. As a consequence of the World War the association lay dormant from 1916 to 1922. On December 9, 1922, a meeting of a committee of forty men was held to reorganize the Alumni Association. The work progressed slowly, but finally the reorganization was effected on October 9, 1923. .In May, 1924, the annual reunions were resumed, but have been poorly attended.

Thomas A. Edison exemplifies service raised to the nth power of usefulness-and the reward thereof. Continuously, he has lived for the better- ment of the conditions of his fellow-beings. The wonder is that at four score and three years, an age when most men, if alive, do nothing, he is still working with unabated vigor! I-Ie can and does inspire everyone of us 3 if we are material- istic, the unsought riches he has accumulated might interest us, but the greater urichesl' is his ser-vice. Yet, the fact remains that it is industrious application that enriches and fulfills our lives. Nothing, is too high to which one may aspire as long as the best goes toward that end. As Young once said, Too low they build who build beneath the stars. Sing a song of Seniors, With noses up so high, Sing a song of Seniors Whose reign is drawing nigh.

An announcement to the effect that the Blue Chick will not be published, because of a lack of support, is made. The Class rallies to the standard, despite a series of discouraging reports and counter-reports, the Blue Chick will be published. Again a new project is undertaken. The Student Association inaugurates the Budget System. The next event startles the Class. Mr. VVagner is called from his position of Principal of the school to a higher place in the educational system of Wilmington. Many regret his departure. However, Mr. Talbot assumes the vacant post. The Class of '30 entertains the parents at the Senior Reception. The parents first see the entertainment provided in the auditorium, then, they go to the boys' gymnasium, where they meet the teachers. The successful Senior play comes quickly on the heels of the Reception. The final bow of the Class of 1930 was made at the Prom given in the du Pont Biltmore Hotel. Au Revoir, Alma Mater! -'El 251 li?- VVILMINGTON HIGH SCHOOL NEWVS Uforztimlerl from Page 1372 large Senior High School. This organization was the l'Vilmingt0n High School News. It was first established in mimeographed form in 1926, from which it soon evolved into a four page, three column weekly journal published by the school print-shop. However, the continuance of this size paper was found impracticable, partly due to printing uncertainties, and partly to lack of sufficient space. To meet the demands of an ever growing student population and an increasing curriculum, the News was subsequently enlarged to five columns plus greater length. The printing was turned over to the 6'Star Publishing Company and the News continued to serve the School during 1928 and 1929 in the same size. During the first term of the past year, there was very little change in the size and content of the paper. At the beginning of the past semester, however, revolutionary changes were made, and the News emerged from the process an entirely remodelled organization. Primary among the changes is the enlargement of the paper itself. Two inches have been added to the length of each column and one extra column has been added to each page. It had been found that, with the old size, it was quite impossible to properly handle the schoolls news. Much time has been given to a universal improvement and increase in variety as well as to perfection of arrangement of the content. From the earliest time, the editorial rooms of the News have been located CK'ontinue1l on Page 250 EQUITABLE TRUST Co. 9th and Market Sts. 3rd and Union Sts MUNDY BRQTI-IERS ---for- - l Furniture 814--816 King Street Open Evenings all 252 lik- can H EA RN BROS.

Coincident with the enlargement of the sheet, the staff moved into the present light and airy office in Room 18, half of which is devoted to class-room purposes. The fourth fioor location of the News was cramped and lacked the centralization afforded by the present quarters. An extensive ofiice improvement program has been carried out by the staff, including the acquisition of a telephone, a large cabinet and a pigeon hole . Individual tables for each staff member are planned for next semester. One of the most interesting things accomplished by the News during the past year has been the organization of a bureau for the purpose of distributing school news to city newspapers.

M. HISTORY OF THE JANUARY CLASS, 1930 CContimwd from Page 32D i what this trip meant to us, and that the only wise thing to do was to sail on with it. Many of our friends had taken life boats and struck out for themselves. In all probability they reached land, but never did they get into port. Most of them are forced to live very near the coast, since they do not have before them the high road that leads out of the Port of Graduation, and gives the opportunity of embarking for a last cruise on a College Ship which takes one still nearer his goal. In our selection of leaders for our division of the crew, we chose Harry Moore for the first half of the year and Frank Cates for the completion of the year. This year we had our first social gatherings as a group in Crew Parties. We had two during the year and each was a joyous success. The Last Tack' The most notable event during the last year of our cruise was the loss of our beloved Captain Wagnei' who -took a position where he might still be in touch with us, although quite indirectly, as Vice Commodore. The only thing we had to sustain us in our loss was the fact that we had received an equally able and understanding man in his place, Captain Talbot. Not long before this we suffered the most distressing loss of our First Mate, Albert T. Steelman, whose death occurred most unexpectedly. All of a sudden things began to fly.

HISTORY OF THE JANUARY CLASS, 1930 CContinued from Page 256D for our arrival at the Port of Graduation. The first half of the year was not so strenuous, but when we returned to our duties in the latter half, first it was rings and pins, then it was the measuring for our special cermonial uniforms for walking down the gang plank, and then came Odd Day. Some of the other Crews had the nerve to say, We never had to wear anything like that when we were Freshmen, as we called the Midshipmen on board- The very idea! Couldn't they observe the Senior Dignity in spite of the Bell Hop and Fairy Godmother top pieces? Our capable leader for the whole of our final year was Irvin Etchells. Among the last celebrations, we gave a play called The Boomerang to which we invited all of the lesser crews. In Olll' Baccalaureate Service we were given the parting message that Where there is no vision, the people perish. Certainly, Seamen, such as we, could not but agree, citing from our own knowledge, that where there is no vision the ship and all its crew perish. Now after all our careful seamanship we were entitled to the huge social event of four years, the Senior Prom-when we left shipboard and hired the best hall in town for a hop.', But somehow we did not completely realize what the successful completion of our cruise meant until we saw the tears in our mothers' eyes as we walked down the gang plank-that-last-night. And so ended as happy and as beneficial a sea voyage as any of us had ever enjoyed.

You free me from the onus of despair VVhich holds my suffering gaze to the marl, Then with head upturned to Heaven I wink, I grimace back at the gestieulating stars. God of blackness! You are not d1'ab, dreary, or dull! You are frolicsmee, blithe, and blissful, As charming as a beautiful maiden! Night of Nepenthe! OYVEN I.. SADDLER '30 THE VIOLICT The Sun saw as it rose anew, A violet of velvet hue, Entrenehed within the dewy grass Of California's Golden Pass. Its roguish face scarce seen between The young and tender leaves of green , Dew-wet and glowing in the dawn, As timid a baby fawn. Its beauty nestles quiet thcreg It does not know it is so fair, And modestly it seeks the shade Ivithin the green and mossy glade.

My old alarm clock has served me well, I have no complaint to makeg But if I should hear the junk man's bell, I would beg him that clock to take. For I hate to get up in the morning, My bed is so soft and warm, While around me the light is just dawning, And without is raging a snow-storm.
