C. held its first meeting Thursday evening, December 29, 1915, at the home of J. E. johnson with Luella johnson acting as temporary chairman. The purpose of this meeting was to bring together the alumni of the Windom High School who are attending college or those who have graduated, and -to in- spire the present high school students to attend some school of higher education. The club was organized with Eli Lund of Minnesota HU. as president, Alex Nel- son of Carleton as vice president, Luella johnson, alumna of Minnesota U, as secretary and treasurer, and Bessie Baxter of Minnesota HU. as historian. These officers were to retain their office for one year when new ones were to be elected by the club. It was then decided to have a reunion once each year. A year later the second social meeting was held at the home of Jens Ander- son. Here the old officers resigned and were succeeded by Conrad Weiser of Min- nesota U. as president, Leonora Anderson of St. Olaf college as vice president, Luella Johnson, alumnus of Minnesota U. , as corresponding secretary, Laura Kout of Minneapolis School of Music as the recording secretary, and Richard Cook of Carleton as treasurer. A committee was appointed to draw up a constitution which is as follows: The club shall entertain the graduating class of the Windom High School dur- ing the summer or holidays. Students who are taking advanced courses beyond High School or those who have acquired a college degree are active members of the club. Those students who have dropped the work before obtaining their degree cease to be members until they take up further training. 5 Oliicers shall not be from the same school. ' Regular meetings of the club shall be held each 29th of December unless that day is Sunday. The present members are: Effie Wicklund, '07, Minnesota HU. Stanley Gilman, '07, Harvard Law School.

I should answer, I should tell you, From the paper of the Freshmen, From the tablets of the Sopho- mores, From the notebooks of the juniors, From the theses of the Seniors. Sailing thru the morning sunrise, In the days that are forgotten, In the unremembered ages Came a ship all swathed in fresh- ness, Came a vessel bright and glowing. Sailed across the river Darkness,', Sailed into the bay of Knowl- edge. And it bore upon its main deck Sixty green and verdant Freshmen. In the front seats they were then lodged. In the first six rows were seated, So that Miss Bernard might watch them, Might observe each infant wonder. So they passed a year of hardship, But a year crowned with achieve- ments, And were ready for the next cruise To a plane of higher knowledge. You shall hear how then as Sopho- mores That they won in every contestg How they beat the haughty Seniors, How they conquered every Junior, How they gathered fame and glory For the Blue and Golden emblem. For they had full many a warrior, Strong of limb and swift of action: Had full many a noble leader. Thus again they passed the nine months That allotted are of each year, To be spent in brain expansion. Then again the sails were lifted, Spread to catch the summer breezes Once more sailed they toward the sunset, That would mean their graduation, That would mean the end of hard- ship And would win the crown of lau- rels. In the third year of their journey, Came they to the isle of plenty Where they found no god of fail- ure, Where they found nought else but victory. Here they basked in blissful sun- shine, Here they lived on milk and honey. So by their undying efforts Gained they promise of a journey, That would be all calm and peace- ful, Not one marred by quarrels and wranglings, Not one spoiled by strife and dis- cord. This the gods did promise to them For they strove forever upward. But the summer winds now called them, Bade them hoist sail for a voyage. Thus they passed another milestone On their journey toward the sunset, Toward that sunset called Com- mencementf' 'TI IIIIIIIIIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllHIHIHIIUIIIIIllIIlllIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll1IlllIIII!lIIIIIIIIIIHIIllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHHIlllHllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllIIIIIIIIIllllIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllIIIIIIIllllIIIlIIlllllllllllllllllllllllll F' N Z l I 1 i P1 r g' 'Env' fra.

V , Out upon the bay then sailed they, In and out upon the islandsg Cleared the bay of Norse and Civics, Made their passage safe and cer- tain, Made their voyage the more per- fect. Then it was they reached the finish, Felt the first thrill of their triumph, Felt the first pulse of the ocean. They had passed the bay of School Life, They had reached the sea called Life's School. Then they turned and waved in parting, W'aved their white and scarlet ban- nerg Bade farewell to all their crew mates, Said goodbye to all their captains. We are going, Windom High School, On a long and distant journey, Many years and many classes NVill have come and will have van- ished Ere we come again to you. But the juniors leave we with you, Listen to their words of wisdom, Heed their guidings and their coun- sels. 'Till they cross the bay of Knowl- edge. Thus it was that they departed, Nineteen-seventeen the faithful, True and brave and noble always, O'er the clear and luminous water, They had passed their first cruise safely And were bound for deeper waters, Deeper waters called Experience And the classes from the margin Watched them floating, rising, sink- mg, Till their vessel seemed uplifted, Till it sank into the vapors Tinted white and tinted scarlet, From the glory of their banner. And they said 'tFarewell forever, Glorious class of seventeen. -HELEN HEBBEL, ,I7.

This fleet was headed for a far distant land called the Land of Graduation which could be reached only after a long voyage of four years over this much traveled, but to them unknown sea. There were four isles-Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior-to be thor- oughly explored before reaching this promised land. Un board the fleet were fifty voyagers each firmly resolved to succeed or go down with the ship. The first port reached was Freshman Isle. Here some were so enchanted by the charms in and about it that they were loathe to depart and even took no heed when the fleet finally sailed away, so they had to be left behind to be picked up by some other fleet at the cost of arriving at the promised land a year later. When it came to basketball and football, the Freshman, as they were called, displayed great skill and promised great victories for the future. After an enjoyable year they took their departure for the next port-The Isle of Wise Fools. Here as Sopho- mores they displayed still greater skill in athletics. It was upon this isle that they found several belated strangers, remnants of the preceding Sophomore class and of whom they had heard so much, gazing longingly into the sea of Knowledge, desperately desiring to throw themselves headlong into its enveloping depths and be immersed therein. Before leaving the isle these kind and brilliant Sophomores rescued these poor unfortunates and took them within their ships to travel with them to the next port, which was named Junior Isle. When they arrived at this isle the voyagers landed and here, notwithstand- ing the terrors of physics, chemistry, English III, and civics, many pleasures and enjoyments were to be found. Another series of football and basketball was played in which the juniors starred as they did in the previous years. Here one of the Juniors bought out the semi-monthly paper called the Tattler and pro- ceeded, with his staff of six members to edit in its columns a record of events, met with on this voyage to the Land of Graduation. The Seniors of 1917 who inhabited the Land of Wise Owls, arranged for a debate with the Juniors in which they expected to carry away the laurel wreath, but fate intervened and sent forth at the Senior's challenge, three so-called junior illiterates and brought them back amid the merry shouts of their classmates, vic- torious! There is neither time nor space to enumerate their many achievements and so with the Land of Graduation looming up in the distance they hoisted the Purple and Gold, hauled in their anchor, and set sail. Oh, the dignity of the Juniors,- Oh, the self-importance of Juniors! And no class carried its colors with more grace than 1918, And the honors we won! IRENE STEDMAN, '18.

After a long time she came to an old hut with an old man sitting inside with chemicals all around him. He said that he compounded ex- tracts to make people prophesy, tell the truth and many other strange things. She asked him to give her some that would make her a prophet and he did so. He seated at a table with speckled ink, speckled tablet and speckled pen upon it. She drank the liquid and started to write not knowing that she was doing so, or what she was writing. She saved the funny paper and when she was asked to write the history after she had become a Sophomore she looked at the forecast and saw that it had been fulfilled to the letter. This is what it was: I-Iydromaniactic speckled nitrates of inkanium-windimimic windi win-wind is blowing outside telling me by its several rushes of a few rushes that are to occur this coming fall when those who are to be Sophomores rush down the halls to a few. These shall take place. One Jesimine Landsomuchnoise shall be presiding mogul of that class. There shall be at some time a book published by the noble Seniors to be called 'CRICKET' and one Margaret Beise shall be appointed as helpee from this class. And there shall be a paper published. There shall arise from the Sophs. one Boby, known by the many and varied colors of the stripes of his shirt, to be manager of the paper in the business department. The speckled fumes see strange contests to be held next fallg yea odd con- tests of devious young men in unknown clothing of diverse colors, and the fumes see many running after another. Unto this game or contest shall the So. class of next year of its best manhood ye Bert Koob and ye Bob of the many hues shirt- ward. The scene of visional prophesy alters, sways, and turns to where is seen bright lights above an arena with people standing upon the walls of a dinky en- closure hemmed in on four sides by walls below the ground. Gladiators, now of the female appear upon the fioor of the enclosure. They begin to throw about a round object, especially capable of bouncing from the ground and the hands of those who are striving. Lo! the speckled fumes see it sail thru the air and alight within a suspended round net. Of these gladiators there seem to be three Hon. Sophomores, Myrtle Smith, Margaret Beise, and Irene Elness. Various scenes shift before the speckled nitrate fumes and many are seen striving with geometry in an upper room in a large building. Many variously twisted speckled fumes reveal ye above in many things further, but ye point of ye speckled pen grows weary and sad. It is further to be seen that a party is to be done on Feb. 17, 1917, the same in the nature of gliding over the ground in sleds of enormous six. Many are seen to be sitting before a box on the floor of a room with many glass windows: to the intelligence of the fumes this appears to be tak- ing likenesses for the book mentioned. But ah, the fumes are weak and the speckled ink grows short as the words of woman to man. In fading twists the fumes see the Sophomores changing into Juniors slowly but surely as the good egg changes to the bad in the summer time. The fumes flicker, fade and slip away like a quarter in a boy's pocket as he takes his best girl to the movies. But as the fumes die, in their dying breath they whisper that all these things shall come truly true. FRANcEs JACOBSON, '19.

The Sophomores were strutting about with important airs quite forgetful of the fact that only last year they too were merely unsophisticated Freshmen. How easy it is to forget! Everything was in disorder. Classes had to be arranged, and pro- grams made. But after the first few days order was established and everything went wonderfully smooth. ,We Freshmen soon became more familiar with our surroundings and enjoyed the following school life as much as mere Freshmen are allowed by the upper class men to enjoy it. There were several times when the Freshmen boys were introduced to the new status of school affairs by the old timers thru being showered with water from the fountains meant for drinking purposes, and other means, but we always took it in good spirit and afterwards felt more as tho we were one of the fellows. Later on in the fall several of our classmen were in demand for the gridiron squad. I guess when the school had seen-and-played in a few games and helped the squad win their good record they were glad they had as valuable a class as the Freshmen of '1 7. And later on when Basketball season came we again furnished our share of the players. Besides we furnished an enthusiastic bunch of rooters which did much to make possible the number of victories. You can't beat Freshmen for yell-- ing, you don't need to be in the H. S. four years to yell. It's a natural accomplish- ment for most of us anyway, Already we are thinking of a track team and again the Freshman class will have good material to make a good showing. By the time we have become Seniors we will have developed some regular all round athletes for the W. H. S. We are already proud of the Senior class of 1920! And of course we are first as good scholars as well as athletes, and proud of that too. All of our teachers will tell you it is a pleasure to have us in their classes, as we are such apt pupils. But it isn't our intent here to brag, far from it. But our High School apprenticeship is nearly at an end and next year we can look with aloofness upon the next class of Freshmen and wonder, really, were we such a green looking bunch as this? Of course we all know that the class of '20 is far above the Freshmen classes, a class the rest of the H. S. can justly be proud of 5 in fact we have often noticed our class pointed out to visitors and we imagine they are being told what a clever bunch we are, really more like juniors. Ask any of us.

The course has been populztr from the First. Some years when the crops :tre poor the enrolhnent is not large. but the quality and quztntity continues to increase. This eourse is clestinecl to become one of the big' clepzirtments of the school. The course is otlererl at the time of year when there is not much to clo on the fztrin. viz.: from December tirst to Klztreh first, :incl the xvork is very similar to that given by some schools much lztrger uncl xvhere the expense to the stuclent xvoulcl be much greztter. It has :tlwuys been the intention of the clepztrtment to give boys at clearer un- tlerstzuuling of the funclztinental principles of soils, rotations, crops, live stock, :mtl feerling. lt is doubtful if any boy can ztttencl this course for one winter xvith- out grztsping the notion that the farm is the factory and Il home, consequently he xvill return to make it more prohtztble and Z1 more enjoyable plztce to live.

It has been studied by the public speaking class under the direction of Mr. Quinlivan, who has had much experience in that work at Carleton College. The first public debate of the season was the interclass contest, be- tween the Juniors and Seniors. It was won as usual by the Juniors. The question this year was the one used by the State League, Resolved, That immigration should be further restricted by means of the literary test. The Junior team upheld the negative, and the Seniors the affirmative. The debaters were: Negative, Kathryn Walker, Vernon Croft and Floyd Marshall, atiirmative, George Gove, Leland Redding and Clark Beise. They spoke in the order named. All the debaters were members of the public speaking class, with the exception of Miss Walker, who, despite this handicap was easily as good a speaker as any of the boys who had had more training. No fault was found with the decision of the judges, which was two to one in favor of the negative. Soon after the holidays the work of preparing for the triangular de- bate was begun. This contest took place on Feb. 9, in which Windom competed with Worthington and Luverne. The teams were the same as in the interclass debate with the excep- tion of the substitution of Wesley Foss for Kathryn Walker, who was unable to join the public speaking class. The Windom negative team went to Worthington, the .Worthington negative team went to Luverne, and the negative team of Luverne came to Windom. The Windom men showed their superiority over their opponents both in their delivery and in their knowledge and interest in the question, and succeeded in winning both debates. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Quinlivan because of his ef- forts to produce a winning team. The success of his attempt was appar- ent by the manner in which the Windom men handled themselves on the platform.

To this man who has helped us with our work, we, the Annual Staff. extend our most hearty thanks. Mr. Quinlivan came from Carleton College here, as instruc- tor in history, civics, public speaking, and English l. As a teacher he has proved himself to be all that was claimed for him when he came, while as an athletic coach he has made a glorious suc- cess. He produced a football team equal in quality to the best. and a basketball quintet whose unfailing courage was derived for the most part from his influence over them. His work with the forensic teams has attracted wide atten- tion throughout this section of the state, as has also his work with the Tattler staff. And in behalf of the High School we extend to him our best wishes for a prosperous season at Notre Dame College next year. lilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllFllllllll!'!!llllll!lHIllllIlll!llllllllllllllllllllllllll,,lll:llll'Z'Il' '!I'llll'llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllI!lI!lHIllllIlllllIllllllllllllIllllIIlIIIllllllllllllllllillllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllll l i llllllllll lllllllllllllllIllllIIlllllllilllllllllllllllllllll, l l l l ll ll l l l ll l l l l l l l ll l lllllllllllllllllll ll lll llllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllfll 9 Q WINDOM I5-LUVERNE Il C.

The operetta was Pauline, and took place at Wonderland on Feb. 20. The scene of the story was in the court yard of a country inn, The Dallesf, whose proprietor, Cassady, was host to a large party of girls on a picnic. The curtain rose on the first act disclosing to view a large awkward negro asleep on a bench. Soon the picnickers appeared singing and laughing. They were welcomed by Pauline, the daughter of the host. It was not long before Faber, a reporter from New York, made his appearance, and inquired for a friend, the Professor, who later appeared after the others had left. Tired and worn with his travels, he fell asleep. During his slumbers three disreputable looking bums appeared, Sorrow, Morrow, and Borrow. After singing a few songs the latter, who seemed to be the leader, entertained the audience with a selection entitled, VVhy Thy Put Norway so Close to the Shore and Tipperary in Norse dialect. The villains then made away with the clothes of the Professor, placing the blame on Shady, the negro. Shady told his troubles to the audience in song. Among the more prominent features of the first act were the solos by Faber, Pauline, the Professor, the Village Physician, Chilikoot Ike, and Cullie. Cullie and Reuben also sang some very beautiful duets, as did Chickie, the proprietor's old maid sister, and the Professor. The act closed with a chorus. Between acts the audience was entertained by a quartet, composed of Wesley Foss, Harry Stricker, William jenness, and Vernon Croft. These singers were enthusiastically encored. Soon a grotesque figure appeared resembling a cross be- tween a cannibal from the Fiji Islands and a Hawaiian dancer.

Tattler Staff Banquet Cn the evening of December 6 the Tattler staff assembled at the reception room of the Candy Kitchen for their first annual banquet. The room was tastily decorated with pennants of all descriptions, shapes, and sizes, and copies of the Tattler hung around the walls. Covers were laid for eight, the members of the staff and the faculty advisor, Mr. Quinlivan. The table favors were corncorb pipes Hlled with tiny candies. An elaborate dinner was served followed by a program of speeches, Mr. Quinlivan acting as toastmaster. Toasts were given by Leland Redding, Ralph Kettlewell, Helen Hebbel, and Floyd Marshall. The Sophomore Party On the evening of Feb. 17, the Sophomores were entertained at the home of Miss Izora Ilrandt, a member of the class who lives a few miles north of town. All who were able to be present gathered at the appointed meeting place, from whence they were conveyed to their destination by bob-sleighs. They were enter- tained with games, music, and everything that goes with a royal good time. In the course of the evening a delicious luncheon was served, which was in turn succeed- ed by more music and games until the time when the merrymakers took their de- parture. The Normal Department Celebrates On October 9 there was considerable excitement in the Normal Department. Why? Because its members were to have an outing, and that outing was to take the form of a Wiener roast. Preparatory work was divided among committees, and at four o'clock the seventeen Normal students with Miss Edson and the guest of honor, Miss Amidon, met in the normal room. The merry company made their way to the dam with many a stop for fire wood and lost bundles. Over a slow fire the coffee finally came to a boil, but a weak log gave away and poured the coffee over the fire. For some reason the fire burned better after this deluge, and soon coffee number two was simmering away. The supper of roast wieners, buns, dill pickles, cookies and the aforesaid coffee was partaken of g then marshmallows were toasted. At last the crowd went down to the Flat bank of the river where they played folk games until it grew dark. Then they all picked up their belong- ings and made their way back to town, declaring that they had had a delightful time.

Had a stranger observed the happy crowd he would have thought that the Senior team had met with glorious success instead of noble defeat. So lively were their fellow classmates that the debaters themselves forgot their defeat. When the luncheon was over the main floor of the Candy Kitchen was cleared of tables and chairs, and those who were so inclined spent the remainder of the evening in dancing. Finally tiring of this they returned to their homes giving the management of the Candy Kitchen a vote of thanks for their kind treatment. Junior Blowout Their debaters, after their success in the interclass debate, assembled at the home of Miss Anna Anderson, to celebrate the momentous occasion. The pro- gram of the evening consisted of games, music and speeches, and a general good time. A delicious luncheon was served, which formed the main part of the enter- tainment. Having enjoyed themselves fully the triumphant Juniors proceeded to the school grounds where the class colors were hoisted to the top of the Hag staff, and left to float in the cool night breeze. The Christmas Party The annual Christmas party was held on Friday afternoon, Dec. 22. NVork on the entertainment was as usual divided up among the various committees, and the final result of their efforts will not soon be forgotten. Albert Nelson, our tiny Senior, recited Santa Claus very effectively. Mr. Troeger played a violin solo, Mr. Hjermstad sang, as also did Miss Sebastian and Wesley Foss declaimed Spartacus to the Gladiators at Capuaf' The guests were then invited to the gymnasium, which was gorgeously dec- orated with red and green streamers. A large Christmas tree was placed in the center of the room, and around it the presents for the children were placed. Some of the older boys amused the younger ones until the arrival of Santa Claus, who was greeted with shouts of glee by the little dears who were so anxious to see what he had brought them.

Only three veterans reported for the first practice. Three players had been lost by graduation, three more did not re- turn to school, and two did not come out for practice until late in the season. Con- sequently the hopes of capturing the championship were not indulged in to any great extent. During the first few weeks of practice, however, the green material was rap- idly instructed in all the arts and crafts of football, and by the time the first game was staged the machine was working wonderfully well. The Windom squad this year met five of the strongest teams in southwestern Minnesota. Three of these teams were defeated by decisive scores. One out of the two remaining games resulted in a tie and the other was lost to the champion- ship team of southwestern Minnesota. The first game was played at VVindom with Slayton, and the Slayton warri- ors succumbed by a score of I3 to 7. The Germans from New Ulm next invaded our little city, an-d Windoiii suc- ceeded in scoring 39 points while New Ulm failed even to make an impression. The keenest rivalry has always been prevalent between the schools of Red- wood Falls and .Windom. Accordingly, when the Redwood Falls team journeyed to Windom on October 28 they were met by a personified determination to do or die. The fates seemed to be against us on that unlucky day, for the game result- ed in a tieg each team having scored a touchdown on an intercepted pass. Windom's strongest opponent this year proved to be Worthiiigton, a team which had not yet been defeated nor scored upon. The men defending the Red and Black migrated to Windom on November 4, in a special train accompanied by a brass band and three hundred rooters. Windom managed,.however, to hold them to only I5 points but failed to score a touchdown. The last game of the season was played on the home field amid falling snow and Madelia fell a final victim to Windom's superior football ability. Win- dom scored a total of 32 points while Madelia returned to their native soil with only one touchdown to their credit. The season of 1916 is now merely history, but taking into consideration the lack of veteran players, the new men who were obliged to fill the important posi- tions, and the all too prevalent lack of confidence, the squad was one of which Windom may well feel proud, one that deserves a great deal of credit, and one which will be the making of future football fame for the Gold and Blue.

' Not Very much. Bud, a new man on the football squad, won his letter playing at guard. For a light man he put up a good scrappy game and was a credit to the team. Bud still has three more years in school and will be a mighty good lineman for the team of next year. Dewey Severson Dcfc'eytu011ld be cz better player if he did11't talk so 11zuch. ' Dewey played his first year of football in the fall of 1016 and made a decided success of it. His long suit was intercepting for- ward passes, and he was also good at run- ning interference. He was an exceptional- ly strong open runner, and when once in possession of the ball he was a hard man to stop. As Severson has one more season to play, he will have a chance to show still more of his football ability. Robert Cowan You play center, Robert. ' All right, lllr. Q1li1f1lii'a11. Bohn also won his NV in his Freshman year, playing at center. He is an accurate passer and is clever at blocking an opposing center. His main ability is in backing up the line on the defensive, where he did much to promote the strength of the team. .-Xs the husky lad has still three more years in school he should have a wonderful foot- ball career. lVlervin D. Weld 'Llly only regret is, that I lzat'e but one nose to give for the football team. Stationed at left end Merv has finished his third year on the football squad. He is one of the best players that ever donned a uniform for the Gold and Blue. His spec- ialty is intercepting forward passes from almost impossible angles and from the fin- ger tips of his opponents. He is great on both defense and offense and blocks his tackle with deadly precision. VVhenever it was necessary to send the pigskin on an aeri- al excursion on the fourth down, f'Merv was the man to do it. His booting generally gained the desired effect. He has still one more season to play for VVindom. lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllElllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIlliIVIIIlllllllllllllllllIlllIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllll ph oioyrqpher Hag r r Y f P X Wd CI'-S0 Nfl Cd Q FSP i ,, C h Q r y 2 ll y Hang fm!

Altho several veterans and a wealth of inexperienced material were available at the opening of the season yet it seemed impossible to produce a winning combination. No distinct cause can be found to which this failure might be attributed. The men did their best, Coach Quinlivan worked hard to turn out a successful team, but all their efforts were in vain, for the season came to a close with only one victory for the Gold and Blue. Altho the past schedule is the least satisfactory the Windom High School has ever known yet the prospects bid fair for success next year. Three regulars, Foss, Beise and Nelson, will graduate this year, but the remainder of the squad will re- turn to school. The men on this year's team who will be qualified to fill places on the 1918 squad are Severson, center, Croft and Gillis, guards, Jeffers and Cowan. forwards and with this quint Windom should be able to command an important position in the basket circles of 1918. Girls' basketball proved no more successful than the boys. Very little en- thusiasm was shown either among the players of last year or the new material. Only three games were played and all were lost by decisive scores. Four of the players of this year's sextette are Seniors, Olson, Hebbel, Dryden and Jeffers, but the lower classes have some promising players and several exceptionally strong basketballpromoters, so the 1918 season should be a success.

XVe once considered whether or not it was just the right thing to subject the little one to the perils and snares of the cruel world, but as we needed her in a guard position we are risking the effects on her innocent mind. From all reports she is still heart whole. Olga Olson Time out, f lFl1SF.H Ole bailed from Laketield in the fall of Kolb. They let her come here to school in order to play jumping center for VVind0m and to get a Normal certificate on the side. Ole's little tootsie wootsiesn have been a great factor in defense in our center field as she always managed to spill her opponent just at the critical point. Myrtle Smith Ha!Hr1.' Hu! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Hai! Myrt came out to play with the pretty big ball this year, despite the re- monstrances of papa and mamma that little daughter would ruin her health play- ing that awful game. Nevertheless she still appears to be surviving the terrible ravages of basketball, and as far as we can see Myres frail constitution has been little injured. Gladys Jeffers 'Cosl1, but I was mad. jeff always plays a mighty peppy game. but especially when she has a de- sirable audience. One can always reckon her by the shade of complexion which she develops. .VVhen she only is pink, she is just peeved: when she turns red she is sore : when she gets scarlet she is mad 1 and by the time she gets purple there is nothing left of her opponent to tell the tale. llllllI1lIlIllIIlllIIlllllIIlllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllll l lll l I i ll llllllll lllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllll ll l l Ill lllllllllllllllllllllllllll l ll llllHHlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll ll llIlllllllllllllllllllllIlllllIlll1llllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllfllllfllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllHllllllllllllllllllllllllllhllllllllllllllilllilllallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll1IlllilIIlllIlIillIllIIIIlllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllk lluixn RU'1'II MARGARIQ1' Han Irene Elness Irne is beyond doubt the prettiest girl on the team and we blame her for the Lnverne yell 1 l'Vi11d011L girls are jH'r'1'tj' l'V1f1ld01lL girls are nice, etc. She has curls that rival Mary l'ickford's famous locks, and a smile that even Cleo might have envied.

She never stops for anything, be it referees, stone steps or bleachers. Oc- casionally it is rumored, she makes a basket just to tease the other team and to give the scorer something to do.

XVI-ILIP VV, F055 Track 1916 The animal home track meet between the Seniors-Sophomores and the juniors-lfreshmen took place at the fair grounds 011 the first of May, 1916. The result was a victory for the Seniors-Sophomores: the Final score being 27. Foss. a .lunior led the meet scoring 20 points out of the 27 made by the -luniors-lfresh- men. O'Xeil, a Sophomore, came second and Damm, a Senior, third. The meet proved that Windom had some good material and consequently it was decided to send a team to the state high school meet which is held yearly at Northfield. john li. Mulligan, the coach, chose Nllesley Foss, Reynold 0'Neil, liiner Damm, Klervin lYeld and llruce Gillis to represent ll'ind0m at Carleton. The team succeeded in capturing four places: Foss took third in discus throw, llamm fourth in the lumdred yard dash, O'Neil took fourth in the 220 hurdles and lYeld fourth in the 440 yard dash. lYindom should be able to produce a good track team this year with the mate- rial on hand and ought to place among the leading high schools at Carleton this year. 1IIIIIIIlIlIlUlIllllIlIllIIIIlIlIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllI1IIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillll'!IIIIlIIIIllIIllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll A5 x!

And the old man went back to bed wondering if they would keep house or live with him. I donit think your father feels very kindly towards me. You misjudge him. The morning after you called on me he seemed quite worried for fear I had not treated you with proper courtesy. Indeed! Wllat did he say ?

His terrified mates tore down the three flights of stairs expecting to find his mangled remains ready to be borne away in a little white velvet box to Lakeview Cemetery. But to their surprise K'Strick arose on his knees, looked cautiously around, and then said in an agitated whisper, Say, fellows, is Troeger mad? Tell him I had to come down to see Mac anyway.

MYRTLE-Why, can you remember that far back? Mr. Troeger sent Bill Jenness in manual training class into the lumber room to measure a certain piece of timber. He came back and Mr. Troeger asked, Well, how long was it ? The answer came, with considerable hesitation, Six feet, two hammer han- dles, and about so much.

How cold your nose is. These words came from the daughter of the house who was entertaining her beau in the parlor. ' 'IIs Towser in the parlor again ? demanded her mother from the next room.
