It has an alinosphere peculiarly its own. The pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church. Rev. H. G. Wes- ton, will deliver the baccalaureate sermon on Sunday evening, April 28. We only regret that The Totem goes to press too early to contain some detailed account of that occasion and the address. We congratulate ih( Methodist ])arisioners foj ' the sj)lt ' ndid work (if thcii- pastor, and especially for the i ipe-organ lately installed. The exercises of the twenty- third annual commencement will be held in the Vurpillat opera house on Friday evening, May 10, 1912. Dr. Wirt Lowther will de- liver the address before the grad- uating class, speaking from the subject, The Art of Seeing ' tilings. We are assured of an enl(M-taining and helpful address. Miss Louise Schellschmidt, the eminent harpist of Indianapolis, has been engaged to intersperse the program with selections on that favorite of a ll instruments. A harpist never fails of an ap- preciative audience. Miss Schell- schmidt is a thorough artist on this instrument. Those who have heard her are anticipating a treat rarely enjoyed. — O. G. KINNIGK.

' I found that it had been remodeled and enlarged until it had become • ' normous. I went to the office, and imagine my surprise when I was here greeted by Dean Patti- son, as Sui)i ' iinl(Mident of ' ina- mac High Sidmol. In talking over old tim( s our coiiversalion drifted to llari ' - Parrolt, who was much in 111 ' ' liiiicli.ulil I hen. He was running tor ills second term as United States Senator from Hidiana, and there was no doubt that he would win out, for all the women were working hard for his election, be- cause it had been through his un- lii ' ing efforts and idoriuent ora- tions thai a bill had been i)assed in (-ongress that gave women the |tri ilege to vote. t ' pon Dean ' s invitation I re- mained in dear old Winamac for a wliile. One evening we decided lo isil one of the new theaters and found llial the entertainment for liie evening was provided by a i(dinist whose music was call- ing fortli a wealth of applause and admiration. The name on the i)rogram tidd no secrets, so you can well imagine our delight when our former classmate, Agnes Hoffman, proved to be the inspired musician. But another revelation awaited me, for when I inipiired of Dean who had l)uilt and wlio owned this beautiful up- lo-date structure, he told me that il. together with the adjoining iuiildings. belongi ' d f() Paul Mil- cliell.

There were several other women lawyers present, a ' lKMig them Beatrice Hedges, Mildred Hathaway and Pearl Kis- tler. Women had certainly made [•apid strides in politics. A beautifully dressed woman met us as we left the court house. I recognized her as our Mabc ' le Miller. Upon slopping to talk I discox ' ered llial her name was iu)L Mill(M ' , Init , and she in- formed me that Beatrice Miller was her neighbor, she also having deserted the ranks of solitary bliss. Dean surprised me on speaking •of his teachers. He named Lenore Bringhain and Hazel Johnson. I then inquired concerning the whereabouts of Ethel Smith and Katheryn Hoch, to learn ihat Ethel was a missionary in Africa, that Ivalheryn with Ethel Uinn, and iial Gleo Long and Facnctie Miller had gone to Texas to teach sriioid and had been very suc- cessful. .!v visil to dear old Wina,,iac (•line to an end, but t could re- luni lo my work with a feeliim ' of inlcnse satisfaction concerning I he fate of the class of ni ' i;iis;ui and (lold.

At various times the teachers of the High School took charge of the open- ing exercises with stoi-ies, inter- esting talks, etc. Among these were an interesting account of a journey up Pike ' s Peak by Miss Stratton, stories of the Ohio river and a reading on Forest Preser- at ion by Miss Diederich.

Some of these memorials have been and are of more practical value than others, nevertheless the school spirit and feeling of good-will that accompanied them have been the same, and the succeeding classes certainly appreciate them.

In 1910 the High School cai)tured the Pulaski County [len- nant from Star City, winning two successive games with over- whelming- scores. Last fall, however, football was abolished as a Hig-h School sport and basketball took its place. This is the first year that basket- ball has been played to any extent by the High School boys because it was considered a girls ' game and not fast and exciting- enough for the boys, but before the seas- on was over there was not a play- er who did not admit that basket- ball required even more brain and greatei ' physical endurance than fooiball. As to its not being ex- citing, those who watched the class games can vouch for that. With the aid of Mr. Walker, as coach, four strong class teams wcri organized soon after the be- ginning of school. ' I ' he teams chose their captains as f(dio vs: l ittle, Senior; Conn. .lunioi-:Ale, Sophomore; Metz, Freshman. A new citurt was made on the boys ' ground and every evening games were played by the classes. Every one looked lo the Supho- UKtres to turn on! the winnin; team and lo the .lunioi-s and Senioi ' s I ' oi- shai-in secoinl place. Althoui li Mie Soi ' lis liad Ihe ma- terial il was ini|)ossible for Iheni all lo nieel a! Ihe same time, ami lack of [)i-actice disabled their team. The Juniors had no idea of get- ting second place, but although their team was small, it was fast and they soon realized that all they needed was teamwork. So in every game they played it Could be plainly seen that they worked together. Having beaten the Seniors once and the Sopho- mores twice, the Junior team ad- vanced upon the Seniors a second time determined to put them out of existence and add another vic- tory to their list. The Seniors were equally determined to beat the Juniors and, in the fastest game of the season they did so by a score of fourteen to twelve. This gave the Seniors second place and the honor of beating the Juniors. When the class games ended the Juniors had won five and lost one, the Seniors had won four and lost tw( , the Sophs had won three and lost three, and the Freshmen had lost every game because of the lack of players. They had, however, fought every game to the finish and were not readily beaten by any means. In these games l)elween the classes evei-y speclat u- and play- er stood for his team and class and all the ;anies were watched with interest, noi (uily by mem- b.M-s of Ih.

Wilhout a suilahle ro(un tor indooi- woi-k, the team euiil.l noj pi-aelice to- pet her at all, but, nevertheless, when a challenge came from the North Judson High Schoni team, we accepted. On Friday evening, December 8, the basket ball team, accom- liaiiied by Mr. Walker and Mr. Kiniiick aiul only one rooter, journeyed to Xorlli .Tudson and there inel dis isli ' ,;us dclVal.

The boys all want to thank Mr. Walker for the interest he took in establishing basket ball in the High School, for without foot ball or basket ball, last fall would have been very dull indeed along alhlelic lim ' s. As it was it passed only too (piickly. BASE BALL 1 liable to organize a track team under the 1. A. A. the High School boys decided to play base ball.

The first nine-inning game was played on ' J ' hursday afternoon, Api ' il L ' 5. In this the Regulars won by a score of sixteen to eight. Several games have been sched- uled with other High School teams, but up to this time none have been played.

Upon seeing Ihe evident annoy- ance of his mother, whom he had been bothering with boyish ques- ti(.ns, G.di lui ' ned and left the room. He was ail llaliaii lad of nine years, and had the characteristic personal appearance of his race; black hair, dark eyes and swarthy complexion. However, there was something more than ordinary in the eyes of this boy; they were so large and lustrous, so deep and expressive, that when you looked into them, a strange undeflnable feeling seemed to sweep over you. In height he was above the aver- age. He was slender and of easy and becoming grace. It was a sultry August day, and the sun beat down upon the nar- row stone-paved streets and the bare frame houses in the squalid district of Genoa. The rickety buildings and dirty streets were a great contrast to the beautiful marble architecture of the richer ])art of the city. Indeed, it was hard lo believe that lliesc lani- Jding structures beloii-rd lo Ihal grand city, which has won llie name la snixTha.

Out of the open dour- ways an ariniia of coffee and gar- lic mingled and filled the air. Coli walked to the end of the nari ' ow street, turned into a path that led over a small hill, and walked swiftly to the top. There he turned to see if he was being observed and satisfied that no one else was near, he went on his way. At the bottom of the hill he sat down under an Indian fig tree, and leaning forward, laished away the branches of some shrub- t)ery and looked eagerly into the opening. Then, with a cry of dis- may, the boy drew back; instead of the object so dear to him, he found only splinlers of dry wood and a buiu-h of mangled violin wires. For an instant he sat still, gazing with unseeing eyes into the distance. The whoh atlair of Ihe violin.

A few hours later a well-dressed man, seeing the violin in the win- dow, entered the dingy second- hand shop, (ireatly pleased with finding a genuine oldSlradivarius, he immediately bought it. As he left the shop and walked down tile sli ' eet, the gentleman saw Coli, and, attracted by the remarkable appearance of the boy, he approached and ad- dressed him. (iood morning. 1 was just passing when 1 noticed you, and thought you might take a small part in an oi)era which we are producing in this city. I am look- ing for a lad of just your ap- pearance and I think that you are just the one we ' re hunting. There will be nothing to learn and you can easily take the part, if I can get your father ' s consent. Wliere do you live and what, is your name? 1 am Mr. Arlington, the stage manager. (liovanni was so surprised and eager when the stage manager made an offer of what seemed a fortune to Giovanni for Coli ' s acting, that he did not hesitate in giving his consent to the boy ' s acceptance of the part. ( n tlic night of the lirst pro- duction of Mr. Arlington ' s (tpera, the play house was crowded with Italian music lovers. Coli had .soon learned the small part in the opera, and pleased the man- ager. As it was almost time for Cidi l(. go on. Mr. Arlington, who had been solicitous about I he boy, has- tened to the dressing i-oom to tell him that it was almost time for him to appear. As he ai)proach( ' ii the dressing room at the end of the narrow eoriidor, Mr. Arling- ton heard tlic soft, sweet strains of a violin, lit ' remembered ha - ing left the old Siradivarius in Coli ' s di-essing ■•oom. ' I ' he music was so sweet that as he listened he held his breath, fascinated. He wondered who it could be, for all the violinists were now on. He never thought that the nine- year-old Italian boy could play. He had never heard such music liefore, so sweet and pathetic, then so light and merry. How beautiful! he thought. Yet who could it be, for there was no violinist here. Soon the music ceased. Mr. Arlington drew nearer the door, but, when the dressing room door opened he stopped suddenly. For there in the half-open door, stood Coli, violin in hand, ' i ' hen, it was the boy! The manager rushed to the boy, and catching him in his arms, said, Boy, boy, you are a genius; that was the most beautiful music that I have ever heard. But now, they ' re calling you — wait, the violin — there, l)lay, boy, play! It ' s yours for- ever! He had thrust the boy on the stage, the violin in his arms. Slowly Coli drew the bow across the strings. Forgetting every- thing except that the violin was indeed his very own, he played as he had never played before. The audience was spell-bound. When he had finished, peals of applause met him. He stood there smil- ing, too happy to speak. At last the violin was his again. The dream of his life had come true; he had ])leased the people, his people with his music. The violin was his companion again. How beautiful was the world! When he left the theatre, ( ' oli was handed a letter. He tor. ' it open and read: I have heard you play, and feel that I must make this explanation of atTairs. It was I who took your Njoiin and left the trash as a Joke, lint now I realize what it meant to you, and am truly sorry.

Max Yantison was an English boy who sometimes carried his jokes too far. He had discovered the hiding place of the old Strad, and taktMi the real violin, (lio- vanni had purchased il from him and sold il. But now it was his. Coli was too happy lo mind the intended joke. Light hearted, hf hurried liome. At last it was his, that one com- panion. And he was a great musician.

Jack Menzit ' s, that faithful and loyal old boy, Was a dear friend of Jimmy — in fact of us all. But he hated to stay and the fam- ily annoy, So he hastened away saying later he ' d call. Oh, we must not o ' erlook our own Peggy ' s dear mother. Who felt sure that Jinuny re- sembled his brother!!! It was really her wish more than Peggy ' s, you see, That Peggy should love ami adore Anthony. Thus did Peggy and mother oft limes disagree. YII. You all remendier the i)lot of the play; it was iVicliie, the rogue! who started it all; Oh, really, Cnarlotte, this is what he would say, Have you got a spaie liver? oh, well — dash il all, I really must go to my deiilisi, you know. If I haven ' t I In- cash, i ll no! stand any show. He was interested much in this affair of the mater, And all thru his scheming, things grew hotter and hotter. Tutt was (in his own words) a deuced good plotter. VIII. The plot sailed ou smoothly thru out the lirst part. And -linuny was trying his best to dazzle, H ' was quite an expert when it came to this art. But Peggy was sure that she cared not a frazzle. When Peggy got started, she sure was a case. Jimmy loved her so dearly, he would look in her face And say, Really now, dear, they don ' t understand ME, Oh, I do want some sympathy, oh, why can ' t you see? I ' m just certain, dead sure, you and I could agree. IX. Whoever went to that Senior play. Will mner forget that ai ' tislic old talker. The dear Mrs. (]olo(iuhoun, state- ly and gay. No one else said a word — she was sure the main squawker. That cute little laddie who ush- ered her in. This was Paul who was there with his usual grin. This grand lady stirred up quite a fuss by her call. WMth her incessant fuming and talking and all. We were all really bored and were glad when she went. For if you say patience, our was every bit spent, She tho ' t she ' d atone by those liU lies she sent. .X. Tlic plot, il developed — it grew and il grew; Peggy got Jimmy in it, in one way or other, For only thru suddenness she knew what to do. She had come to his rooms; later Archie and mother Game in to investigate; oh, such a mix-up; Jimmy tried to expiaiii. l u( the more he woul l lix ui) This horrible matter, the worse did it grow. Jimmy told mother and Archie he wished they would go, Mater went in a hurry, but Archi( not so. XI. I ' hru all of her scheming, Peggy got things arranged. There was Anthony engaged to her dear little mother. When mother knew of her ac- tions she was nearly deranged So she married Lord Gracken- thorjie and I eggy the brother. Everything ended right, and we had lots of fun. You ' ll not find such a play; no, not under the sun. We had great times together, the teachers and all, Miss Stratton, so tiny, and Miss Diederich so tall. Such grand times together up there at the hall. XII. So goes the story of Peggy dear. So goes the awful account of her doings. Of Jimmy ' s entaglement and of his wooings. You ' ll never forget them, you need have no fear. ' Twas a iilay of great merit — one to adore, Ami its praises shall echo for evermore ! For of all the High Schocd plays of the past. None is to be compared with the last. ' henever you ' re weary, and think you need rest. Just open The Totem and read and you ' ll hear Of one play, you will all call it best. Of our All-of-a-Sudden Peggy dear. — 1912.

After his Senior year in Physics the ])oem (?) above was written and respectfully dedicated to the Class of 1912 bv —ITS PRESIDENT. JLk tt tt e Time of L P the IBIack Fkg P When the descendants of Robert Clarke had passed the age of fairy stories and their young im- aginations turned eagerly to tales of marvelous and thrilling adven- tures, their fathers or grand- fathers with a look of pride and admiration took the youngsters aside and with due reverence brought forth a carefully pre- served heirlo(un. It pleased the older to see the open-mouthed astonishment of the younger when the sacred ob- ject fell open and showed itself to be a real pirate flag. Then in answer to the eager questions the father repeats the following story: It was a hot and sultry day in August in the year sixteen hun- dred and seventy-nine. The sun sank lower and lower into the Mediterranean, and presently was entirely submerged in the dark surface. Night drew about the little schooner riding at anchor. The crew of the Mary Ann sat in anxious groups on deck, talking in hushed tones, for a feeling of brooding danger hung about. ' JMie air, heavy and suf- focating, hung over the water, now almost motionless, and the sails hung limp, for there was a storm approaching. il iiad been a hard day for the mile li nl and what they feared most was nearly ui)oii them. The Mary Ann was a small trading vessel, in the einploy- NKMit of the East India Company, wliieli rarried eastern exports to I ' lnKlaml. ' I ' liis :;argo was es- pecially valuable and they had been in ( -onstant fear of pirate ships. They had passed the last African p )rt and were about ten miles out when a badly broken rudder compelled them to await daybreak, and conseijuently they had cast anchor. Captain C llarke was evidently uneasy, for he paced back and forth over the deck. Suddenly he stopiied and strained his eyes towai ' d the still crimsftn west. ' t he men ceased their conversa- tion and rushed to the rail. Each leaning forward, scanned the horizon. A gasp of terror es- caped some, for they see coming toward them a small object. The minutes pass and as the ship draws still nearer their fear grows, for they see th(i black flag hanging from the mast. Then the captain ' s curt orders send them hastening to their duties. There was some hope in the storm and the blackness of the night, but even then the dan- ger was great. Fhe pirate ship drew nearer ami nearer, and with its approach the night came and wind arose, rattling the rigging of the Mary Ann. They moved everything from the deck and made ready for the storm; nor were they any too soon, for the storm broke in a gust of suppressed strength and shook the ship angrily. Another thing was in the favor of tin- Mary Ann ; the wind op- jtosed the other ship, and as the eaptain rightly supposed, the at- tacking party was Cdinpelled to cast anchor not far from the Mary Ann. Then it was all either could do to withstand the storm. Captain Clarke gave or- ders that there were to be no lights, tor all their hope lay m the enveloping darkness. The men were eagerly discuss- ing plans below, when young Robert, the captain ' s son, stole t i the deck. He was compelled to grasp different objects to keep his balance, while he stood there eagerly looking about for some sign of the position of the pirate ship. At last he saw a very faint light at some distance, glimmer- ing thru the storm. Many means of escape came to his youthful mind, for he was a brave and noble lad, and was willing to sac- rilice his life for the rest of the crew. But there was one plan which suited him especially, and he did not wait to consider the danger involved, but decided to act immediately. He first went to the cabin and brought out a stout rope and a heavy augur. Then he crouched down against the mast to await the end of the storm. He did not have long to wait, for the wind soon spent its pas- sion and grew more quiet. He saw that the time for action had come and for the first time he realized the great danger. But he kept the position of the ship still in mind and began hurriedly to equip himself for his task. First, he bound one end of the rope about his waist and finally the huge augur he fastened to his shoulder. Then quickly but steadily he removed his boots and jacket and fastened the rope to the rail of the deck. Then he lowered himself slowly toward the water, which still beat against the ship. He could hear the ex- cited conversation in the main cabin, as they made ready to de- fend themselves. Down, down he went until a huge wave caught him and pulled at him violently; then he loosened the rope from his waist and struck out across the inter- vening water. He felt secure in his own strength, for a life near the ocean had given him a strong, well-built body and skill as a swimmer. For another thing, the wind was in his favor, and he hoped that before he should re- turn the water would again be calm. On he swam, each wave taking him nearer his goal. So far his strength was holding out, but he found that the distance was greater than he had imagined. The night was pitch dark and even the water was black. He did not know how near he was until all of a sudden a huge bulk became visible, rocking with the waves. Then he could hear loud voices and he knew that he had reached the pirate ship. A few more strokes and he touched the side of the vessel. Moving about it he was able to locate the men by the sound of their voices, in a cabin on the op- posite side, preparing for an at- tack. He thought it best to keep away from this side and so returned to the stern and climbed onto the rudder. Firmly seated, he select- ed a place on a level with the water and began rapidly to ply his tool. He worked fast and furi- ously and soon he had made one, then two, three, four, ll t six, seven, eight, and then nine holes in the rough wood. The holes were aboul three inches in diameter and liic water gui ' gled and circled as it ran swiftly into the ship. He hoped that they would not discover the source of the leak until it was too late to prevent the mischief. But the real danger lay in the fact that he might be discovered. He had finished the work in safety and now he let the heavy augur sink into the water, and turning, forced his way back toward his ship. The way was hard, but at last he came to the Mary Ann and found the rope just as he had left it. He climbed on deck and foaiid that his absence had not yet ix ' - ' u discovered. Thoroughly exhausU. ed he staggered down to llic cabin where the crew was hdMiiig a consultation. Mien they saw his dripping clothing and wearied look they were amazed and listened eagerl ' while he told his story. He had hardly finished wh n excited cries came from the oilier ship. There, they are sinking now. cried young Clarke, we are safe after all. Captain Clarke gave his orders and the men went hurrying to their places. They i ut the oars in place and guided by the frightened cries of the distressed men rowed toward them. When the Mary Ann reached them they were frightened into quiet submissiveness. The cap- tain and his men sent out small rafts and took the entire band eaiitive. I ' hey discovered that the pir- ates were the same as those whd had been plundering the neigh- boring coasts and for whom the English government had offered a large reward. The Mary Ann was repaired and the crew proceeded to their English port with the prisoners. Young Robert received the re- ward, which aided him in estab- lishing his own trade and a pros- perous future. And as a reward for his bravery the captain gave him a large black flag, the flag of the captured ship. When the story is ended the youngei- will gaze reverently at the family treasure and vow to ever pifscrve to his children the story of the black flag. — FERNE PARROTT ' 13. dEbnxlEr New Year ' s Day — No school.
