In a week oritwo we heeame aequainted with the high sehool and its ways and were soon forgotten as green Freslnnen. A term passed and we passed on into the Sophomore elass. that is most of us. still green and just like any other Sophomore elass. the smartest hunch in sehool. Like all other elasses we were deelared to he. hy all the teaeliers. the dumlv- est huneh in sehool twe admitted that and proved itj. Still we progressed and eaeh day helped each week pass that made the months go to luring us nearer to our goal. VVe were promoted again and now we were Juniors. Now we began to spunk up and take notiee and also he reeognized by the Seniors. VVe were making great strides in many ways and all the sehool began to think that we were just a real niee elass. and we were. Mr. Ilarris r-an tell you that. The time passed and with mueh regret we left Mr. Ilarris and the Junior Class to become Seniors. Then the greatest. the hardest. the easiest, the longest. the shortest. yes. the last year of our high sehool career started. Books went home. midnight oil was burned. and eaeh and every day lmrought new problems. But it was not all worry and work for good times. and plenty of them. were had hy all. . The time grew shorter and shorter. the work harder and harder. the stu- dents weaker and weaker. and then. well. we just kept on going day in and day out. i Now as our sehool lives grow shorter and shorter we wish to leare in the hearts of all the students of our high sehool the good will of all our elass. lVe hope you and our sehool may continue to proeeed and progress. Now. ladies and gentlemen. I will elose my leeture with a hriel' summary ot' the Senior elass that is now passing into a new world. NVQ: have laid our plans and aeeomplished them. lVe had our business to attend to and our hnsi- ness men did it. VVe had the high standing of the sehool in athleties to uphold and we hope we did our share. ive had our orators. our poets. our aetors alto- gether, we had a real class and now we are passing out. lVe are sorry that we tll'9 going and we hope we will not he soon forgotten. -'I 7'IlIIl'ff-Y llinshrruf. flu' lllvflingv Pot ' Seniors 'l'ln-so :Irv .vm-:urs wo will ilrvznn about, So lmppily spent togetlwr: Tlwso are years wo will singlo ont To 1-:ull our best over.

As we rushed on. glimpses were caught of swarthy men returning to the lields. children happily splashing in puddles of water. women again putting out, their half-dry washing. lirown and yellow lields of wheat. cool damp woods. wide vistas-yes, the country was wonderfull A gust of sluoke blurred the vision for the moment.

Mrs. Spear sighed, 0h. it is such a bother to have to travel with three chil- dren. But I just couldn't refuse. I'm going to visit Dorothy Retz. She runs a boarding house at a seaside resort in the summer and teaches at Dwight School. Englewood. New Jersey. in the winter. Ray-don't mark on the lady's grip.

Ile cer- tainly was an abject pictu1'e of Woe. The room was packed and the tension was ahnost to the breaking point. The Honorable Judge Mope Kendall rallped for order. The ease was stated. It seemed that Letty Burke and a, Fred Oxley had owned neighboring ranches in the Rocky Mfountains and Miss Burke had the goods on Mr. Oxley. because she had caught him in the despicable occupation of carrying some of her rocks over on his land. Mr. Oxley plead guilty. Ile claimed it was a beneticent purpose entirely, that he fully intended building a stone house out of it for the betterment of the community. lVhy, he said in his great voice. what could be more heavenly than for the innocent sheep to arise from the hillside on a jeweled morning, the great towers of nature rising above and around them. with sweet grasses growing at their feet and as they look out over the great rocks and hills and valleys. to see in the distance a stone hut-a lnunble dwelling-they would not be afraid, no-7' he paused for it to take eh ect. llis voice was trembling with passion.

Tliere was so much confusion we conldn't get all she said. but it was evident that everyone's sympathy was with poor Mr. Oxley. t'Oh. Frances said. I know their clerk.

IVe stayed until luncheon time and then went up to Hips otliee. Ile had an important business appointment with Mary Coats at 12:30. She has the agencies in New York for lawn grass and Atwater-Kent radics now, Yes-professional women are becoming more and more prominent in the business world. On the way to lunch Frances told me of the almost uncanny progress Maurine Boyer was making. She went to lVashington. D. C., and for a month had charge of a kitchen in one of the noted l'estaurants and then was advanced to the position ot' private. social and business secretary to the President of the United States. Really. it is appalling. After lunch we decided we would window shop. l+'rances. will we have tilue to go to a store and see it I can get some tan shoe laces? . Sure, we'll have time. Frances answered, MI believe Ackmen's would be the best. they have the reputation of having the most exclusive shop. They haven't at thing that isn't imported. VVell. Irene Moore is living on a cotton plantation in Georgia now and she really doesn't have time to get those things, so she wrote to me, I ex- Jlained. 1 So we went to Aekmenis.

He is a graduate of Morton High School of Richmond and of Earlham College. lVhile in school he made an en- viable l'8CU1'll for himself in track and basketball. This was our first year in our gymnasium with Chick as our pilot. He was a tireless worker and always on the jump to help his men make a name for their school. His team was 1'ated as one of the best in the county, being one of the two teams to upset Union City. Chick was always working for the uplift of the future as well as the present of old lVinch-ester High School. He always had as many as possible ont. giving them instructions and a fair chance. He emphasized that athletics must be learned from the bottom up as well as anything else. Chick. through his earnestness and energy won the sincere co-operation and good will of all who worked under hun. To express our sincere thanks for what he has done for us, we hope to see him in the saddle next year. -TARLTON DAVIS. Tribute from the Players I really learned a few things this year. Chick knew his stuff, and was always ready with something new to put across to the fellows. -Rip Thornburg Although I don't like to work, Chick made me work for something and boy, we sure got it. -Tub Davis I was always hard to teach anything to but Chick was there. He taught me many things. -Spark Stoker He taught me the art and did it well. I wish we could have Chick next year. -Harry Fraze What Chick doesn't know about basketball isn't worth knowing. Regret that we can not have him wit-h- us next year. -Roger Phistney- Chick is a sport, a fine fellow and a real man worthy of his position. -Herb Ryan Chick put forth his best efforts. Sorry we did not do better. Better luck next time- -Gerald Alexander Chick is a man and he is wittyg He used his head and we beat Union City. -Brig Younge. I hope that some day I can accomplish as much as Chick. He did wonders this year. -Tommy Graft No one knows how much we all appreciat Chi k.

It is just talking the time of our hoys aml not letting the1n develop their minds, People must think good hasket shooters are all that is necessary in life. And just look at that gynmasium. the money it cost! And the taxes are going to he twice as much next year! The idea of hiring a coach to teach any one to put a hall through the hoop is simply silly and the added money it takes to have one is outrageous! The noise they make practicing through school hours disturhs the pupils trying to make something out of themselves. The teachers that encourage athletics should he put out. -XVe are not paying them to put such fool notions into the children's heads. They are pnt there to teach them Reading. YVriting and Arithmetic. The hoys have to practice every night and that keeps them out too late aml they do not get their proper work. It would he different if they were winning. hut all this tllllt' aml energy is just wasted, and the way the lmys get out there half dressed is certainly a disgrace to lunnanity. Let the hoys develop their muscles on some work at home such as throw- ing coal in the stove door instead of getting out there and making fools ol' themselves. --III'1lil'IN Ilomsox. The Boostefs Wewpoint 66'l'UXti live the liooster of our XV. ll. l.et's put the knocker so far il from the door of Athletics that they can not hit the coming teams. It takes Basketball players to hit just at the right time and at the right place to get through the net of life. The knocker talks ahout the cost of such places to teach hoys haskethall. lt' the average parent were going to school today he would not kick ahout the money it takes to keep things going. They do not realize that the hall is whirling on the rim all the time and that one wrong push will put ns hehind the foul line to stay forever. So he sports and let's do our hit to give the school children a place where they can go to keep them otl' the street. A basketball team cannot always win-it takes the disappointment of losing to appreciate the ones we win. If you don't get the work out of the hoys at home you think you should just promise them the chance of going to practice haskethall. that's all you need to do. All things will he accomplished if they have something to look forward to. 1 ,f Page Fifi!!-ffl'l' Itll.lCY 'l'll0RN15URG Rip CAl l'AlN 'l'his young man is the Captain of our team, and we will always remember him as one of the best athletes that W, H. S. has ever produced. Rip has played his part at forward in the most commendable manner and has proved a valuable man for the W. H. S. outfit. In fact he has always shown superiority over his opponents in a remarkable fashion. No opponent was ever too large or too rough for him. T-he opposing guard who was watching him generally had his hands full because he is a scoring machine. We are sorry to lose Rip this year for we will be without one of the best forwards ever graduated from W. H. S. TARLTON DAVIS Tabby Tubby is another oi' our indispensable men in the W. ll. S. scoring machine. He played h+is position at forward with remarkable ability, being there on a defense as well as offense. He is a fast, clean player and a crack shot at the basket. His accurate pass work and his ability at swishing the draperies from most any angle of the fioor helped pile up the score. lle has gained a reputation of being one of the best forwards W. ll. S. has ever turned out. We are very sorry to lose Tubby this year because he is sure a star. RAY S'1OKlu R Spr1rl.'y Whenever the VV. H. S. team came on the tloor 1 headed by Spark llug, the bleachers settled hack and felt safe. As a center, Spark always got the tip off. Assured that far, he stepped back and as back guard made it impossible for the opponent to make a basket. His long arms and cool head saved many a long shot from the enemy going through the hoop. llis position could not have been filled by anybody whofsurpassed his ability. His strength and size were a great asset to W. H. S. and the terror of the teams of the county. He was without doubt the pivot of the team, and with him out of the game, the strongest chance of winning was gone. With Sparks' graduation we lose one of our best men, and know that our loss will be the gain of some college five, 1 I ng! If niy gm The Mc tmyl ot THOMAS GRAFT Tommy Tommy is anot-hfer one of our fast forwards whose remarkable ability was displayed at all times. When it comes to swishing the draperies for field goals, Tom- my is always on the job. He is a fast floor worker and exceptionally accurate in passing. He showed an unlimited amount of pluck and always played a clean game, When we needed a few points we could always depend on Tommy to drop a few through the nets. We are very glad to hear that Tom will be on deck the next two years. l ROGER PHISTNER c4R0gen Here is our all around man. He can play one position as well as the others. Roge th' year has played forward, center, guard and has plaid them all with' remarkable ability. He is another scoring machine. This is the first year that Roger had had a chance to show his ability as a basket ball player, and he has been very success- ful. We are very glad that Roe will be on deck next year. w I l l HAROLD YOUNG ccB,,iyx1 Une of the most necessary things in basketball is defense, for a team without it would be helpless. W. H. S. is far from being that way because of Brig Young, when he holds down the floor guard position the opposing forward had better watch his step or he is very likely to lose the ball. Brig covers a lot of territory in a short time, and it is an exceedingly good pass or shot at the basket that makes him better. He is good at breaking up plays, and he is another scoring machine. We are glad to say that Brig will be on deck next year. The Ml'Itl-Ilfl Pot Page Fifty-severz IIERBICRT RYAN Il0rb Here is one of the cleanest and fastest forwards that W. H. S. has ever turned out. He is a steadv player and exceptionally good at floor work. He is always fighting and a real scoring machine. When it comes to swishing the draperies he is there. We can depend upon him for several baskets each game. You know it is hard to find a man to play defense as well as offense at the same time. Well, here is the man that can do that. Watch Herb next year. HARRY FRAZE Old Mun Harry played the position as forward with' remark- able ability. He is one of the best trarineb W. H. S. has ever had. Although Harry has not had the chance as the others have this year he will shine next year. He can't -help being one of our fastest forwards, be- cause of the way he trains and works to learn new points, This shows that he will make a real forward next year. Watch him. XVILLIAM bU'1H1EI,. , 'tliilln Bill is also one of our guards that plays his posi- tion with wonderful ability. His steadiness and con- sistency as a player has made for him quite a good reputation as a basket ball player. Bill is a fast and clean player, and one of the most consistent trainers on t-he squad. He had a very good way of breaking up plays, it would startle the crowd to watch him. But Bill had bad luck at the end of the. basket ball year. Owing to injuries Bill was unable to finish the season, and we are very sorry to lose him this year. Puyf' If'ifty-vigil!

Bloney will always be remembered for her ability to make a basket right in time of need. She was all for the game and team and none for herself-for which we all greatly admired her. She will be with us next year and we know we shall hear a great deal from her. MARTHANN PAYNE- l'ui11ie. When the season opened and a center was needed Marthann was chosen to fill the place. She always secured the tip-off and carried the ball down the floor. She was as good on defense as offense and will always be remembered as one of the Flashy Fighting Six of '24, Marthann leaves us this year with the graduates. LOUISE DAVIS-- Lou Louise was chosen as side center at the first of the season and held her place all through the season. She was rig:-hlt there and as quick as a minute. She will al- ways be remembered for her ability to break up plays and to carry the ball to her goal. Lou has another year with us. ALICE FORREST- .llicl.'cy Mickey will always be remembered as the best guard ever produced by the W. Il, S. She showed that she was a real player by -hier ability to play any position in the game. Mickey was a real sport, always laughing through defeat or victory. She is a Junior and has one more year with us and we can rely on Alice as a large asset. RUTH GIBSON- Gibby Ruth was a line mate for Alice when it came to passing' the ball. She was right there and on the iob. When Ruth secured the tip oil. then we knew that we would have a chalice at the groal. Ruth is a Sophomore. RACHEL DRAKEH Rr11 A capable leader-a fine sport and a sure basket shooter-'that's Rae. At the lirst of the year when a captain was needed, Rae was unanimously elected. She proved her ability to make baskets in the tournament. Rae is a Junior and will be with us next year. Page Sixty-four The Melting Pot Girls, Basketball IIE girls started out this year with a great ambition to win for them- selves a place in iVinchester athletics. This they did. .Xlthugh they only won tive of the thi1'tcen games played. they showed their ability which will some day bring them fame. I'nder the able supervision of Miss Esther Engle they were developed into a team that carried them strong in the tournament. which was held here. In this tournament our girls made a splendid showing copping a IST-T victory from Green Iligh School girls and putting up a real tight with the strong XVayne team, being defeated by a small margin of 18-13. p They certainly owe their development to Miss Engle for her untiring clforts to develop a team that the iVinchester students and citizens should be proud to back. Vile know that next year we can, with her assistance, have a team to be proud of. iVe will lose only one player from the regular line-up by the graduation this year. ive surely hate to lose Marthann, who only played ene year. but has colnpleted her High School career. VVhen the Basket Ball season opened. the call for Basket Hall girls was given and thirty-live answered the call. From this bunch. the following play- 0l'S were chosen: Moore and Drake. forwardsg Payne and Davis at center. and Forrest and Gibson at guard. These girls with a great desire to accomplish something started the season of '21 and '25. Rachel Drake was elected captain and they started out October 2-ith. facing the iVayne team as opponents. A great victory came from this battle whieh inspired the team with a desire to work harder and be real sports, Mllllell at guard, Dodds at center. Bagley at guard and tlartley at forward occupied the bench ready to assist in any way to help the team. iVe received. for a token of honor. large yellow letters, which were greatly appreciated by each and every girl.

Would the end of the basketball season be the end of spo1'ts? Would there be a baseball team? Would any tennis games be played? These were a few of the questions being asked while all was suspense until the announcement that cross-country running would be started at once. After such notice it could not be denied that a real attempt was to be made toward having something more than the ordinary in track and field athletics. Of course base- ball games were played when possible, as well as a few tennis meets. the idea being 'to give everyone a chance to compete in some out-of-door activity. Baseball and tennis presented the opportunity for another victory or two over our neighbors from Union City, But from the start, the thinly clads received the most attention. There may have been a few misgivings as to the success of this comparatively new venture into a branch of athletics which reouires as much, if not more, scientific training than any other in order to be even passing fair. Whatever there may have been of doubt has since passed away in the face of a successful season, To those who know the months and even years of effort which it takes to make a good sprinter, a good hurdler, or a good jumper, there can be no doubt as to the success of Winchester High School in field and track athletics this year. The first meet of the season was the invitational at Wayne High School in which an injury to one of our hurdlers was probably all that prevented us from winning the meet over Wayne, Union City and Lynn. As it was, Winchester won a very close second. The second event of the season was the inter-class field and track meet and the horseshoe tourney. This was won bv the Senior Class. Several surprises were re- leased in the way of promising material for next year. Perhaps the greatest victory of the season was Winchester's defeat of Wayne in a dual meet, the score being 54 to 45. Winchester's right as Randolph County Cham- pions in track and field for 1925 cannot be questioned. With high hopes, a small group of five made the trip to the Elwood Sectional meet. Everyone of the five did his best and all dcse1've praise. Although VVinchester failed to score in the meet, this fact does not indicate inferiority in any sense. The Elwood meet was as fast as any in the state. In spite of keen competition and lack of experience. our boys were barely nosed out of placing in several events. Those who competed at Elwood were Darrell Briner, Riley Thornburg, Harrv Fraze. Chesteen Kendall and James Armstrong. lt is hoped that with such an excellent start, the succeeding years will see VVin- chester High School athletics romping away with a large share of the blue ribbons and medals of this state. V Page Sixty-six The Melting Pot The Crystal Ball 9' T had once been a splendid old mansion-but a city had now surrounded it. lt ij seemed strangely out of place, too-with the roar of the metropolis-always that death-like .stillness-nosign of life. It was apparently empty-had been for years. Yet an odd looking man hastily mounted the front steps, quickly unlocked the door-a click of the latch on the inside and the house resumed its stately, dignified, but somehow uncanny weird appearance. Once inside, the man leisurely took off his coat and hat and groped in the dim light for the hanger. Then he slowly traversed the long hall, t-hvat kept its secrets in silence behind locked doors. There was a musty, damp smell about the place, but the man was used to that. He mounted a winding stairway, down another hall-this time counting the doors as he went. At the fifth door he rapped thrice, crossed him- self-then entered. There was a table. a chair and a glass ball-that was all, The man sat a long time in the chair. watching intently the crystal before him. At last the ball began to take on a little color-but it came slowly. He stroked the ball with his hand. It seemed to catch- fire. He clenched his fists tighter. As the ball became a bright rosy pink, the light gradually died out of the room and left it shrouded in darkness with an uncanny stillness. A gust of icy air struck him in the face. He started-listened. The sound of a voice, at first very soft, came to him intermingled with the moan of the wind. I tell you Tolliever, I can't do it. The thring haunts me! I-I'm afraid-it's too horrible. You afraid! You! The man sneered, Kid, now's no time to show your yellow streak. What do you think's gonna hurt ya? I suppose I am a coward, but I can't help it-I guess I'm afraid of the super- natural and then--well, Tolliever, it's justfnot right. Parker, what's wrong with you? the other man demanded. Saying it's not right to steal, when you've 'been doing it for the past ten years. I know, but this is different, Parker replied. Oh, of course it WILL be a trifie more scary perhaps, but dead people won't hurt you and-think of the money in it --his eyes glittered, jewels in the casket amounting up in the thousands. Suddenly Parker jumped to his feet. Tolliever, I'm going to quit and turn over a new leaf. I'm through: with this kind of stuff. It's too risky. You'll get over that, old boy. You just didn't get enough sleep last night, that's all that's the matter with you. The larger man calmly lighted another cigarette. Why, Parker, there's absolutely no risk at all in this deal- then as a second thought l'e added, the-re can't be! He seemed to brace himself a little. The night just made to order, pitch dark, heavy fog, and a. strong wind to cover up our sounds. No one knows but us two. Parker, you can't back out now, y0u've GOT to go. It was after midnight, between one and two o'clock. The wind had risen steadily- if anything the night had grown blacker. Two men stealthily left the rickety old tenement house and were soon swallowed up in the darkness of the night. The old grave. yard stood on the top of a steep rocky cliff. The broken tombstones were barely distinguishable in the thick fog and the sighing pine trees, blown about by the wind, were like vague phantoms of the air. A light flickered for an instant and then disappeared, and there was no sound save the ripple of the water in the great chasm below and t-he howl of the gale. Soon, two men entered the grave yard. It's over somewhere near the edge of the cliff, Tolliever whispered, pointing in the direction. Martin D. Cyler's the inscription. There was a low roar of thunder and a lightning' flash illuminated things for the moment. p Their fiash-lights flickered around over the stones. The Melting Pot Page Sixty-se-ven Tolliever, we're in for a bad storm, Parker complained, I move we beat it back to town. He turned his collar up against the wind. I Beat it back to town the devil, a little rain won't hurt you, I'm in here for money, you superstitious infant. He started away toward the. edge of the cliff. If we work fast enough we can get throughl and beat it before the storm breaks. In a few minutes he had found the grave. You know I'm not in favor of this, Parker was still dubious, are you sure no one knows but us? But the other man's answer was drowned by the noise. of the storm. The lightning flashed constantly now, and the peals of thunder rolled incessantly through the clouds. The two men worked in feverish 'li-aste. Then, the deluge of rain came-but still they kept on. There she is. We've struck it! cried Tolliever above the din, and he quickly broke the rotten top of the casket. The body was in the last stages of decay. The treasure will soon be ours, he cried, triumphant. ' Tolliever, for God's sake hurry, gasped Parker, here hold my arm, there's the bag, I can reach it. A man's head slowly emerged from behind a nearby tombstone and two deadly black eyes greedily watched the scene intently for a moment. Then one. mad leap, re- volver shots, the light extinguished and darkness. Nearer and nearer the edge of the cliff they fought. The dying screams of Park- er as he went down, down into the great abys-s below. The other two men still fought. Tolliever felt something hard hit his leg. It was his pick! He clutched at it frantically-the. other's grasp relaxed and he fell in a heap in the open grave. Tolliever staggered to his feet, every fiber in his body quivering. His brain swirled. He-he was a murderer! He shuddered and covered his face with his hands. There was again that streak of lightning, seemingly covering the earth for the moment in living flame.. as a man threw himself over a cliff into the dark waters below. The crystal ball slowly lost its color, the room grew light, and Ivan Blake, the great medium, emerged from his trance satisfied. -CHRISTINE HINSHAW. Y Q 1f 4 'L Q f,K.-x 'ff ff 7:7 'ixlfai' inf if: lege' V Page Sixty-eight - The Melting Pot Student Government ' LTHOUGH student government is as yet an ideal, its rapid development in the future is very, very probable because of the excellent qualities it possesses and the most desirable results it will tend to bring about. In the first place, it develops the initiative. self-reliance and character of the student by allowing. him to participate in affairs which before were considered the business of the school ofiicials. The rise of self-government t-hfus trains the student, not only for school democracy, but also trains him, by showing him the pure, deep-lying, wholesome' motives of a true democracy, to become a more efficient, patriotic, whole-hearted American citizen when he receives his full rights of citizenship. Student government not only creates a desire in the heart of each student tomake laws which- he knows are right and just, and which he knows can honorably be obeyed. but it also trains him in the organization, enacting and workings of each law, until he can understand implicitly the reasons for, and the basic standards of each law which is endrawing to aid in holding up our standards of justice. By teaching the stand- ards all of the.se things, self-government is training them to be the leaders of tomorrow, who will uphold the principle of democracy in opposition to hated autocracy. By putting students in charge, the beauty of co-operation and neighborliness in social affairs is portrayed. By appointing committees to discuss the various subjects, a marvelous social spirit is developed and the social standards are so raised that an ideal companionship of teachers and pupils exist. The hated presence of the Master and man influence is eradicated and the minds and mental ability of both teacher and pupil are heightened until they can more easily appreciate and enjoy the fullness of knowledge with which, each might aid the other. Although examples of student government in some of our schools have failed, the general conditions were. no worse and in some cases, much better than when all author- ity rested with the school officials. Although probably not accomplishing any more, however, reports show a most favorable development of character in the students of schools which are self-governed. The youth of today in the United States are not the heavy-disciplined, humble ones, as are found in the Old World, where children are born slaves and the teaching that they must be satished and not complain, is instilled into their very soul from early childhood. The children of America are the products of modern times and demo- cratic ideas. Soon will an educational plan, no doubt, be adopted furthering the principles of student government and democracy, behind which will stand, the teacher, ns an adviser and one who only exercises a veto in extraordinary circumstances. The success of such a plan not only depends on the honor of the student but also upon the backing and time which the teacher is willing to give in order that such an ideal structure may stand the test. The enthusiasm of both teac-her and pupil, is the necessary step to making student government an organized system. -IRENB Moons. The Melting Pol Page Sixty-nine The Force of Destiny R. BLY stood in his wife's apartment looking out of the window at the cold black sky, dotted here there with tiny specks of light. These tiny stars seem- ed to reflect their lonely brightness in Mr. Bly's soul and give him renewed faith in God. The soft June wind blew ringlets of disordered hair from around his pale, ashen brow. He uttered a soft sigh, which the winds took up and gently bore far, far away into the -paths of the unknown. He turned to his four year old son, who was sitting in the middle of the polished floor, running his steam engine. Don had not yet learned what the sting of death meant. Nor could he realize that his beautiful mother would never again kiss those chubby hands as he knelt at her feet and murmured, Now I lay me down to sleep. Nor would she ever kiss the tear stained face after a fall, Nor would he ever gaze into his darling baby sister's face, as he tried to play Peek over the edge of the cradle. It was only this afternoon that they had been lowered into the breast of the shol- tering mother earth as fate had snatched them from the restless sea of time and placed them on the Golden Shores of tomorrow. They had been taken without a moment's warning when a train on which they were riding -had been wrecked. The father gathered -his motherless child to his bosom and prayed to God to always help him do the best for the only thing he had left in the world to live for. Where's Mother? questioned the child. Heaven! was all the stricken father could answer. Heaven? queried the. sleepy child, with a puzzled frown as he cuddled closer to his fat-her. And somehow as the child fell'asleep there seemed to come stealing through the gloom an answer to his prayer. ll! ,lf Pl' Ill RY S1 Eighteen years had passed. God had answered his prayer. This father and son were constant companions. Each was dearer to the other than life itself. No wonder Don was prostrate with grief one morning when he arose. and did not see his father. Upon investigation he found his father lying in his bed cold and dead- with never a word of Farewe.ll. This broke Don's heart and as he knelt down by his father's lifeless body and kissed his marble brow, there seemed to come a whisper, It is better thus, son. But to Don's young heart it seemed as if God hated him and was punishing him for some undone wrong. To forget, Don started traveling but nowhere could he find rest for his troubled soul, which called for Love, Hope and Companionship. Finally he decided to go to visit a friend who lived on a ranch in the west. He tried to read but despair clutched at his aching heart. Fate was always at his heels. But. Oh God, why am I so haunted? he would often sigh. On this particular morning he went out riding, And as usual Fate intervened. Don's horse lost its footing and they fell down a steep embankment. Mr. Steed, another rancher, happend by, in looking for some straying cattle. Upon first seeing Don, he thought he was dead. But when he poured some water from his canteen on Don's bruised head and face, his 'eyelids fluttered, exposing a pair of beau- tiful brown orbs, full of suffering and pain. His curly head was cut and the blood from the wounds had flowed down his neck and arms. Mr. Steed took him to -his ranch and called a doctor. Doris Steed, the rancher's daughter, was a light, athletic girl with dancing bluc Page Seuefltll The Melting Pot eyes and a crown of golden curls. Doris bathed his wounds and when the doctor came he pronounced it a 'broken hip. Don was too sick to be moved. Many days followed full of suffering and pain, which were made easier by t-he sunny disposition of Doris as she encouraged him. And because of the tenderness and love she gave him the eternal ache in his heart began to heal also. For he had learned to love Doris, the only person who had gained -h-is confidence. besides his father. And to her he told his story. Many days followed full of happiness for the lovers. For was their happiness not nearly complete? One day out by t-h-e rose arbor, Doris plucked a rose and put it in the lapel of Don's coat. This is to remember me by. Remember you by? Why, Doris, how could you think I could ever forget you when I love you so? Why, dear, you mean more to me than life itself. And thus these lovers pledged themselves. That evening found Don and Mr. Steed alone on the porch. Mr. Steed, I love your daughter and I want to ask your consent to ask her to marry me. Does Doris care for you? Yes, Mr. Steed, I am proud to say she does. Tell Doris to come here. I have something to tell you both. When Doris came out, Mr. Steed was pale and trembling as he said, This has long been a secret of my heart, but now I feel as if I must tell you. It grieves me much to tell you this but I believe it my duty and if my wife were living I am sure she would approve. Nineteen years ago we lived near a railroad at Winton. One night I heard a terrible crash. My wife and I dressed quickly. Everyone-was hvur- rying towards the railroad. We joined the throng and ahead of us we could see the dead and hear the moans and sobs of the injured and dying and the sounds echoed back broken and mysterious. ' The scene. dazed us. We were suddenly brought back to th-e tragedy again by the lonesome cry of a tiny babe for its mother. We looked around. The babe lay far apart from anyone else. Our only child had died a few months before and my wife caught the sobbing child to her hungry bosom. And because no one claimed it there we took it home without furt-hier search. And in this we did wrong. But we always did our best by this child and she seemed as dear to us as our own. This seemed to forgive us. With this Mr. Steed kissed Doris on the forehead and turned into the house say- ing, God bless you both, my dearsl Doris, sobbing, laid her tearstained face against the fragrant rose, sobbing -her heart out for her father and mother she never knew. She suddenly felt alone and unwanted. Why, Doris, I am so sorry, but none of that can make any difference in my love for you. Life is full of tragedies. But some day they will be unfolded to our troubled minds. For too, was made motherless by this same wreck! The following Sunday the bright sun cast its golden loveliness -through' the. lacy curtains on the happy couple as they were united to share the rest of their life together. They went to his home in the East on their honeymoon. From there they went North on a hunting trip. They went hunting every morning. Both were perfectly happy. One morning Doris caught the toe of. her tiny boot on the root of a tree and fell. Her gun exploded and blew away part of her right side. Don, horror stricken and half dazed carried his bride of but a few days to their rooms. He called the doctor, then attempted to stop the flow of blood from her side. But it seemed impossible. The nlvltiugf Pot Page Seventy-ww When the doctor came he said because of the loss of blood, Doris must be given blood. To this Don gladly offered himself. When the doctor examined Don's blood to see if it was pure he found that it was, but-he turned white and seemed transfixed. But a moan from Doris again hurried him on. After the operation Don sat by her bedside watching for some sign of life.- The doctor, after cleaning his instruments, came over and laid his hand on Don's shoulder. ' Do-ah-er-is this girl your wife? Yes, indeed she is, was Don's proud reply. Well, son, you know the law compels us to reveal circumstances to parties im- plicated when we believe they are innocent of the fact, but--ah-er-this girl is also your sister. Impossible, impossible, cried Don. Yet there seemed the awful realization that among the many killed at this wreck, they might have buried some other babe with his mother. Oh, Doris, Oh Doris! he sobbed, as he lay his head on her bosom and kissed her, but those lips were cold and unresponsive. A week later it was a sorrowful group that gathered around a grave into which an oak casket was slowly being lowered. Everyone was prostrate with grief at the awful tragedy. The awful silence was broken when ,Don fell at the foot of this bride's grave ami cried, Unmereiful God! What have I done to deserve all this? -FLORENCE MULLEN. G oi '..i W, . .. 'l 0 as HI! .

He was very obedient to his master and was often commended for his loyalty. He had two comrades who were in constant attendance. They were Pride and Good Grades. Now it -happened that in a nearby castle there lived an enchantress called Girl. One day she. and her train were passing down the valley called Hall, when Everyboy and his comrades were returning from hunting Correct Answers. They met. Every- boy forgot Answers when she waved her hand and caused him to fall deep into the pool of Confusion and Embarrassrnent. The next day he deserted the hunt for answers and looked for Girl. He found her in the field called Assembly, and only a stream called Aisle separated them. They talked until a monitor called Conscience reminded Everyboy of Work. That night when he went to Court, he had lost his desire to serve his old friend History. For several days he wished to cross the stream, but Pride and Conscience held him back. Soon a way opened to him and he crossed to her on the Bridge of Neglect. The bridge keepers were Bad Grades and Poor Deportment. His earliest comrades de.- serted him. Duty reported him to Teacher, who went to Tyrant History, who gave him 50'k for Experience, and told him to go to the House of Enchfantress. This he was very willing to do, especially as he was accompanied by First Love. Her home was called the Castle of Pa, and it lay just beyond the very dense Wilderness of Elders. Everyboy hoped to be admitted by Persuasion, but Pa sent his servant Refusal who threw Everyboy into the moat of Rejection. Realization took him to the Desert of Despair with only Sh-ame and Sorrow for his companions. Here for a long time1.Everyboy wandered wearily, until at last he came to the Grove of Remembrance, and found the Spring Comfort. He drank and lay down to sleep. He dreamed of the Fine Times that he had in the Court of Tyrant History. Guardian Angel came to History and told him of Everyboy's plight. Tyrant History sent him a boat, Pass- ing Grades on which he crossed the River of Examinations and came into the Lake of Credits. Later he presented himself to Tyrant History, and was delighted to ac- cept as his comrades, Good Application, Better Grades and Best Deportment. . --WILLIAM Prrcm-m. , ' 1 . , The Illeltmy l ot Page Seventy-tho er , , . , , ,,.,. , , A ,, A ni., ie,-,ww ,-,44Q.,T,--,,,,, When We Fall We All Fall Hard Y plane was soaring along at a rapid rate above the rolling clouds. Suddenly the swis-hi, swish' of the propeller ceased and I realized that my plane was shooting downward into space. I made an attempt to get the plane under con- trol but all in vain. I could hardly get my breath as I sped through the air, down, down, and then a crash-a numbness and all was gone. When I opened my eyes I found I was in a lovely white room lying on a snow whfite 'bed in about the center of the room and next to a large fioor lamp from which a bluelight seemed to spread over the whole room. At first I thought it was a dream, but suddenly I was aware that someone was holding my hand. Ivtried to turn my head to see who it could be, but I found to my great surprise that I could not move. By my attempt to move I must have electrified the person because at that moment a pretty young girl clad in so-lid white stood by my bed, smiling down at me, not in pity, but joy it seemed as she said, you did--you did, I failed to hear the rest, for at that moment all became a blur. I must have fainted. Again I opened my eyes to find I was alone. My hand was lying limp at my side, I could not stir. This time my room had changed. It was morning and the beautiful streaming rays of the sun came across the room from the big window beside me and a perfumed odor of roses swept across my bed from a large bouquet on the little table near by. All this seemed so strange and the keen pains had begun to shoot through my head. ' . Someone had placed a little bell in my hand that lay limp by my side for when I tried to put my hand to my head it jingled and in an instant the door to my ,room was pushed'ge.ntly back and the same pretty girl entered with a glass of cold water. She walked to my' bed. I felt better although those keen quick pains were still in my head. She drew the table with t-life roses on it nearer to :ny bed, smoothed back my hair with a fairy like touch and left the room with the request that I should go to sleep. I lay there trying to recall all that had happened. I could not sleep, neither could I figure out just what had taken place. At times part of it would come back, then it would seem td take the shape of something else until finally I must have overtaxed my brain andbecame delirious. From that time until days later I remember nothing. It seemed to me a long sleep. But I was weak, sore and weary when finally I became myself again. The doctor stood beside my bed talking to me, I know not how long, but the first l remember he said was, he is all right now and will live. This was not good news to me as it might have been to others. I did not want to live, I had nothing to live for. My parents, my brothers and sisters had all been dead for some time. I had only distant relations. I had been a Lone Ranger of the air service for four years. In these four years I had made several real friends but where were they now? All this was whirling through my brain as I lay there looking up at the doctor. I started to speak, but he turned away and busied himself with his instruments preparing to leave the room, I realized it would be useless to talk to him, so I remained quiet. He turned, looked at me and left the room. In my attempt to speak to the doctor I had not noticed the girl in white. who was sitting at the foot of my bed. She moved slowly to my side but said nothing. I was conscious of a throbbing in my breast that had never been there before and 1 was puzzled. She sat down on the side of my bed and took my hand in hers. She was gentle and had a soothing touch. It seemed as though I wanted to live at that moment more than ever before. SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL. Her eyes were blue and seemed to sparkle as the dew in th-e early morning sun, she was fair as a .lily of the valley, her cheeks were a deep pink and she had wavy yellow hair that seemed to draw my attention more than anything else.. Suddenly I realized I was staring at her. I shifted my eyes in another direction only to return Bw Sfawv-four -- -ef In Tteiirllfeefig Pet my gaze. on her. I noticed the color rise to her face and s-he moved to the window as if to look for some one. She stood there a few moments staring into space. Sud- denly she turned, walked to the little table and taking a glass of water from it offered me a drink. I was not thirsty, but I drank long and deep, but merely to have her close beside me. I tried to thank her but she spoke of the doctor's command to be quiet. I could do nothing but obey, as I did for many days afterwards. One morning I awoke to find the pains had left my head, I could raise my hands to my head and I felt like a new person. I was alone. A fresh bouquet of roses scented the room and a ray of sunlight fell across half the length of the floor. It was Spring. The birds were singing and all nature. was in bloom. I lay there trying to solve all that had happened. It all came back at a thought. I remembered all, even back to the day I was speeding along above. the clouds. The most effective of all was the remembrance of the pretty little nurse, as I later learned she was. I just began to recall when first I saw her and all the times thereafter when who should come into the room but she. I greeted her as cheerfully as I could, as I was very weak. She seemed startled, but soon regained her gentle attitude and came to my bedside, gave me a drink and sat down on the side of the bed. I wanted to talkg finally she consented, but with an understanding that I should say but little. I asked her to tell me where I was and all that had happened. Instead she broke away from that subject and began talking of the trees, birds and flowers and of the beautiful spring. I was soon car- ried away by her marvelous descriptions of all these things. Then I grew impatient again to know wh-ere I was. Finally she explained that I was on the second floor of a large hospital. I had been brought there weeks ago from some placeout in the country by two men and placed in good care at their expense. They had found me unconscious beneath my plane out in a field beside the road. That there was no one to identify me and there was only a small tag attached to a cord around my neck with the initials H. H. engraved on it and encircled with t-he words-Air Ranger. They had written to the United States Air Service Bureau to see if I was on the Ranger lists. They received a letter in a few days stating that I had been a Ranger four years, and this was my first accident in the four yearsg also that I should receive aid at the Government's expense as long as was needed and then I was to come to Wash- ington and report to the U. S. Air Service Bureau. It was this last statement that made me start as I remembered my duty as a Ranger. I was for getting up then and there, but found it was useless in two waysg first, the nurse forbade it, and second, 1 was not strong enough. I had to stay in bed for a week or maybe two longer, accord- ing to the nurse's orders. I said no more and lay in bed for three daysg then I felt that duty was calling me. On the morning of the fourth day about six o'clock I arose and dressed myself with great difficulty and was all ready to leave when I discovered that my tag had been removed from my back, and I could not leave without it. In disgust I sat down on the side of my bed to await the little nurse who alway-s called at seven. Unaware of the fact that I had spent nearly an hour in dressing, I did not have long to wait. I was trying to figure out an explanation when there came a gentle tap as usual at my door and in a moment in came. the expected nurse. She was more beautiful than ever this morning. Her attractive appearance and graceful airs seemed to lighten up the whole room when she entered. She came to sudden stop, rubbed her eyes and after a moment's pause asked what I was doing up and dressed. I tried as best I could to ex- plain why I was leaving. It was harder work than ever I had done, but she seemed to be not excited in the least. She said she had expected it before t-h-is time. and laughed. By this time my heart was pounding as if it would jump from its place. I wanted to thank her for all she had done but how was I to do it? I tried to swallow the imaginary lump that collected in my throat but all in vain. I could not speak. Seeing my plight she came over and sat beside me on the bed. I wanted to get up and go, but sat there as if tied. Finally I got up enough courage to ask for the tag that had been taken from my neck. She seemed more than glad to get it. I watched her walk to a little cupboard in the wall beside the window and take the tag from Ll small box. Unaware that I was watching her, she slipped the string out and drew a small white ribbon from around her neck and put it in its place. I had unconsciously Que Melting Pot B ffzgc Sezwerc't,aL-,Que advanced toward her and when she turned to bring me the tag we met fact to face. She held out her small white hand with t-he tag in it, but she was looking at the iioor. I didn't realize what had happened when I found that she was in my arms clinging to me as if for her life.. Neither of us said a word for, it seemed, a year. I could feel her breath sweep gently across my neck and -her golden hair brush across my face as she stood there leaning her head upon my shoulder. I stooped, kissed her on he-r cheek, and was about to go, when suddenly she raised her head and looked up at me questioningly. Her arm flew around my neck and she drew me down to kiss her. It was a long, lingering, farewell kiss. I gently put her from me, turned and quickly left the room. After closing the door I was tempted to turn and open it again, but felt that duty should be first. The eight thirty train was just whistling for town when I started for the depot. I just had time to get there, purchase. a ticket, and board the train. I selected a seat on the rear of the car that I might be able to think and not be disturbed. As the train sped away through the country I noticed nature in all its beauty and thought of the beautiful descriptions that my nurse 'h-ad given to me. Somehow I didn't want to live, yet now there was something for which to live, though I doubted whether I should ever see her again. I was determined to return for her after I -had done my duty as a Ranger and was prepared to settle for all the kindness shown to me by 'her and others. I hardly realized what had happened when my train stopped in Washington. I got off, hailed a taxi and hurried to the Ranger Bureau. To my great surprise there stood two of my old friends that had searched everywhere for me. After greeting them I was shown into the head office where I assumed an attitude of attention, was relieved, and told to take a chair. This was rather alarming, but I waited for ques- tions or a command. Instead I was presented with a paper and told to sign it. After signing my name to this I was presented with another sheet and a hearty good luck, old Boy, from the Chief. I hardly knew what had happened until I began to read. It was an honorable discharge connected with a small fortune as an income for the next ton years. I expressed my appreciation by a hearty handshake and a farewell to him and rushed outside with only one purpose in mind. Could I ever find the girl I had left only a few hours before? I was puzzled as to just what to do or where to go, when suddenly I discovered while fumbling the little ribbon around my neck that it told in writing on it. At a close investigation it was a girl's name and address. Of course it had to be. the nurse's, so I set out determined to find her at any cost. I gave the address to a taxi driver and whirled away through the city to stop before a neat little bungalow in about the heart of the city. I got out, rang, and waited to see who would answer. Soon the door opened and a beautiful old lady was standing' before me. I asked if Mae CI had learned her name from the writing on the ribbonl was at home. She informed me she wasn't. but would be. at five. that evening and invited me to come in and wait. I looked at my watch and found that it was only a few minutes of five, so I decided to wait. After a few minutes had elapsed someone stepped quickly across the veranda, opened the door, and rushed into the sitting room, kissed her mother and was taking off her coat when I stood and addressed her as Mae. She uttered a low cry and stopped as if glued to the spot. Then as if moved by lighitning she flung her arms about me and I kissed her before I realized we were there before her mother. But the embarrassment was soon over and I was being introduced to her mother as her Ranger friend. I made an attempt to explain wlho I was, but was silenced by Mae II only knew her as Maej. She said she wanted to know me al- ways as her Ranger friend. But a few months later I had to explain who I was, but not to her. We were able to go immediately into our new home just completed and furnished from my little fortune from the Government. And we are now living ve.ry happily as two retired laborers, as s-he soon quit her position as nurse after we became ac- quainted. My advice to all young fliers is: Don't try the stunt I did just to be able to get a pretty little nurse, for often you don't live and very seldom you get the nurse. -Doc HENDERSON.
