But as we draw near it we hesitate, for who can willingly say a last farewell to the old school and playground, to the teachers who have directed our progress through these four yearseyears marked by their joys and their troubles, but Which shall ever remain in our memories as the happiest moments of our youth. Here the path which we have tl'odden side by side divides, and while some will go to flit the list Of college students, some will enter upon a business career, others will take up the study of Law or Art. But wherever we may be, whether in the old world or the new, north or south of the equator, it Will be a pleasure and inspiration to look back to the time when we were all together within the walls of Old Woodward. The memories of those happy days will be a comfort to our hearts. We have undertaken therefore to gather these scattered tokens of the worth and genius of our Class and set them as a monument upon this spot where for the last time we assemble as the Senior Class of Woodward, nineteen hundred and four. 4 ANNUAL STAFF.

She is not only endowed with a wonderful talent for drawing, but her memory is marvelous. Chem- istry fontiutas never cause her worry. ANGERT, ADELE 6. H Moved to the depths of her soul By pity and woman's cumpassion. Adele is always ready to lend a helping hand. Her classmates can truthfully say that the only complaint she has ever been heard to utter was about that nuisancethair! ARMSTRONG, THERESA 7. HThose smiling eyes, so full of hope and. joy and light And that light heart so joyous. A sunbeam dropped from heaven to bless the Class of 1904! We could never do without sunbeams. hence we would never be able to get along without Trix. AVEY, ALBERT t'AmmaF' Siaj, Gym Teaml Fur him was levere have at his heddes heed 8. Twenty hokes. clad in black or reed Of Aristotle and his philasophye. Than robes riche. or tithelel or gay sautrye. This is the editor of the ANNUAL Albert is very desirous of be- coming a professor of Greek and Latin, and we all hope that he will succeed. His distinguishing mark at present is his hair. the smoothness of which is remarkable. 13 BACHMAN, STANLEY Football. Baseball, All things are less dteadful than they appeartii Stanleyts plunges against the line in football struck terror into the hearts of his opponents: but he has a gentle heart. He even loveswto do other things besides play football. BAEHR, STELLA M. 0. B. 'iHow brilliant and mirthful the light of her eye, Like a star glancing out from the blue of the sky? The light of all the stars of heaven can not be compared with the brilliancy and the radiance of our one little beaming it starU at Woodward. BEISSE, ALMA HAnd her smile it seems half holy, As if drawn from thoughts more fair Than our common jestings are. Almals advice can always be relied upon. She seems to have the tact of knowing each girlis secret thoughts and she knows how to transform HJim Dumps into ti Sunny JimH without resorting to force. Peace reigns in Almats presencea BRILL, ELMA H Hence. away, hexane, begone! Carking care and melancholy? If the worst were to befall Elma. it would be impossible for her to subdue her bubbling merriment. Vcrily the poet meant Elma when he sang of tt the laugh that in the woodland rang, hemucking April's gladdest bird. BRITTON, BESSIE M. O. B. A mm more light, a step more true Ne'er from the heath flower dashed the dew. Even the slight hareben raised Its head Elastic from the aity mead. Bessie needs everybody's deepest sympathy. She has been collector of class dues for this year. Nevertheless her sweet disposition has not been soured by this enormous undertaking. BURCH, ROBERT Class President, M. 5., Athletic Cmmm'Hrr. Football, Tracie Team. Vim, Vigor. Victory. An apt description of Bobis fine physique and excellent work on the football and track teams. BURNS, IRENE HAfmzmzi Smj, iiOmcle Siaf. if all those young endearing charms Were to change by mmorrow and fleet Like fairy gifts away. Thou wuuldsi still be adored as this moment thou art. A belle of belles! Her charming disposition has won for her scores and scores of admirers, of both the boys and girls. CONKLIN, EMMET X.2.X., Gym Team. A worlhy young man, indeed, sir! Modest, good-natured, and diligent in study. His gait ought to be cultivated by all. 15 6. 71 8. DAVID, WILLIAM Debating Sacz'eyn Behold, how great a mailer a little fire kindleth.' William is smaii, but his power and importance is in inverse pro- portion to his stature. DAVY, ROBERTA M. O. 8., H0722512 5151717. The common mouth Too grass to express delight in praise of her. uBohi' is quite a favorite. We must congratulate her on this; she has shown what a. sweet disposition can do, even though she has been among us but two years. DAWSON, BENJAMIN Hit is as easy to count atomies as to resolve the proposiliuns of a lover. Benny claims to be mathematical; but judging from his remarkable statements during recitation, we think he is dreaming of Missii. DEPNER, LILLIE 0 heart, with kindliesr motion ever warmf' A diploma was never placed in more worthy hands than Liliieis. Four years she has struggled with the mighty wave of high school cares. Success will certainly crown her untiring efforts. DEITERLE, ANNA 5. H No sword of wrath her right arm whirled. Talk about good nature! Anna certainly possesses loads of it. Ask her how she and Trix prepared their lessons at night. She will convince you that the telephone is a very useful apparatus.

And so i penned It down, until at last it came to be For length and breadth, the bigness which you see. YesV Oliver, you have done well. We are proud of our editor and our paper which under your direction has increased not only in Hbigness but also in quality. 7. DODDS, POCAHONTAS Thought resigned, a quiet mlncL Behold the young lady who never gets excited, she has never been known to lose her head. It now and then. a cloud happens to cross her countenance. do not attribute it to ili-nature; remember, she studies chemistry! 8 DORNSEIFER, STANLEY X. 2.

This peroratinn with such circumstance? it is but one 01' Stanleyis resounding declamations which thrill his hearers, and make his oratoricai rivals tremble. l7 EBERLING, CARL II. 1,. M., Cadefs, Baseball. One blast upon his bugle horn Were worth a thousand men. He, like Orpheus. moves all creatures by his notes, for when his call is heard, the cadets without effort or command fall into their proper ranks. EHA, CHARLES Debating Society. studious nf ease, and fund at humble Ihings? Charles is a quiet, easy-going young man, generally seen with a bland smile upon his countenance; content to comment upon some one elseis translation of Virgil. ENDERES, DOROTHY Stayed in peace with God and man. Dolly's school career seems unruffled. but without doubt. she. like the rest of us, meets with obstacles too. We nccdnit worry though, Dolly has a strong determination which all her classmates envyt FAHNESTOCK, LEROY II. 1'. M., Debating Society, iiAmnmlii Business Staj.

FRANZ HERBERT Football Team. Tmrlc Team. Oh, it is excellent To have a giant's strength. Franz gained quite a bit of renown by his hammer throws upon the athletic field. GETELSON, JOSEPH HAirman?! Sfaj, C ounm'fiee 07! Awards. 6- His hair is of a good colour, An excellent colour. There always seems to be u genial warmth radiating from his coun- tenance. Never mind your hair, Joe, itis getting darker. GLICKERT, JOHN Debating 5051239. I stood among them, but not of them. in a shroud Of thoughts which were not their thoughts. John is noted as a personage of his own opinions; and he has en- gaged in more arguments in the last four years than Demosthenes ever heard of. 19 GOTTLIEB, HELEN H Life shoots and glances through your veins And flashes off a thousand ways. What an utter impossibility it would be to imagine Helen in a Puritan cap and gown.l Her gay, carefree spirit could not abide long in the guise of a strict little Puritan maid. HANNA, EMMA Free from fiutterings Of loud mirlh thal scorneth measure. A girl who works for everything she gets; she is honest and trust- worthy and true to the very depths of her soul. HARRIS, ROBERT X. 2. X., t' Oracle Sfajf, Preside ! qf Debating Soulety. 'i He hast l knuw not what, of greatness in his louksl and of high fate, Ihat almost awes me, The only one who ever inspired the editor with awe. Bobby is deeply interested in the study uf humanity, especially that branch which is placed under the head of 'girls. HATHAWAY, MARY Eyes not down-dropi nor overbright But fed with the clearpoimed llama uf chastity. lf Mary could see herself as others see her. she would find that she is one of the most generous. warmhearted girls in the Grade. HESSLER, CLARA Svcrrlmy A Grade, tlAummlil Staif. Art fragile Repwmzlaiiz-a. Thou shouldst have seemed a treasure-lmuse divine Of peaceful years; a chronicle of heaven :- Of all the sunbeams that did ever shine The very sweetest had to thee been given. No girl at Woodward is more beloved than Our charming little secre- tary. Clarals joyous smile and sympathetic ways. win friends for her everywhere. She is an expert at coaxing the nickels from our purses for the great HArt League.H and all the work carried on her strong little shoulders does not ruffle her sunny disposition. HOPKINS, REBECCA M. O. 3.. ll Oracle 5mg, Al'hleh'c Associalt'oul Here's to her who long has waked the poet's sigh. A girl who gave to song: Whal gold could never buy. Everybody knows H sis. The secret of her popularity is her sweet and sunny disposition. Rebecca never worrieshthat is the reason she is always smiling. HOWARD, CHARLES H. Q.M., Slildmfs, Representative, Athletic Calimn'fiw, Comim'ffee 0:: Awards, Gym Team. HThe muscles of his brawny arms Are strong as irun hands.' Charles is ex-captain 0f the Gym Team; also a great student of Spanish. which he speaks in a thundering voice several octaves be- low that Of any ordinary mortal. 8. KRlPPENDORF, OTTO A Daniel come In judgmentl yen. a Daniel.u HULL, HARRY X. E. X., Atllletz'c Conum'ttee, Brisket Ball, Basybrzlf. i'OurJovial star reigned at his birth. We are glad to see the happy countenance of our Harry and the girls have not failed to see it too. He is also a. hard worker and has done much for the Basket Ball Team. JOHNSON, MARGUERITE H In some good cause. not in mine own. A more unselfish girl never breathed within the walls of Old Wood- ward. She is always ready to deny herself something in order to minister to the wants and wishes of her classmatesl KAEUPER, ALMA uAnd all hearts dn pray ' God love her!'- Ay, and always in good south. We may all be sure He doth. Wherever we see this learned Senior we look for a close friend Di :1 Civics text-hook. We all know that Alma is wedded to Civics. Although she is unconscious of it, she is continually granting her classmates loving little favors. KREH, CATHERINE HShe, so light of foot. so light of heart.n Gymnastic exercise is Catherine's chief delight. Her fellow athletes can prove to you how exquisitely she ll trips the light fantastic toe. 7 l Otto is our authority on all points of law, and he takes great delight in critising the statements of text-books and great authorities. 21 15:11.2, .2 yr LANE. MABEL Revealings deep and clear are thine of wealthy smiles, We could never call Mabel a pessimist. She believes in ii keeping on the sunny side? and she inspires others to believe the same. LE E, LOUISE u Oracle Staj. Dowered with hule of hate, scorn of scam and love of love. Louise has never learned how to hate; she holds love and charity as the Strongest links in the chain of everlasting triendship. LIGHT, ARTHUR The two noblest things which are sweetness and light. Arthur abounds in both, as any of the young ladies will testity. As he is quite a chemist, the contact with poisons serves as a foil to the sweetness of his disposition. LOVERING, LENZ The traveled mind is the catholic mindv educated from exclusiveness and egotism. Levering has lived in Germany and Belgium, and is considered among us as an authority on French; even the teacher respects him, He will go to Denver after his graduation. MCGEE, EDITH Sweet lips whereon did reign The summer calm of golden charilyt A harsh word has never yet been known to escape from Edith's lips. She has no enemies. Besides being a poetess she has proven her- self a reliable bookkeeper. MCHUGH, ANNA As stately as her carriage Is her nature sweat. Here is another good-natured Anna. Although she seems to be a girl who storms schoolgirl nonsense, her bright and dainty dashes of wit have been :1 source of amusement to her friends. MACKELFRESH, HAROLD 11- Q. Ml, Cadets. U My sentence is far open wan Harold has been training and drilling the Cadets as if he verily be- lieved that they would be sent to Manchuria to protect American ind terests there. MENGDEN, HIPPO II. tP. M., iiAmmalii 52w, Cadefs. Withuul a sign his sword the brave man draws. And asks no omen but his country's cause.H Hippo is very proud of his sword, and by his grand military bearing he has won his way into the favor of the girls. MEYER, ELSIE 5, M. 0. 3., V1badesz'dmtz-1 Grade. And if any painter drew her He would paint her unaware With a halo round her hair If Elsie were allowed to devote her hours at school as she pleased, she would live the whole day in the French. mom. Elsiels conscienti- ousness is unequaled and her friends admire her for her unswerving obedience to duty. 6 MILLER, JOHN B. H He whose inborn worth his acts commend. We are all proud of Johnls persevering nature, and we sincerely hope some day will see him an authority on mathematics. MOELLER, JOHN G. 7, H My tender youth was never yet altaint With any passion of inflaming lovef' John has always lived in the country and even in four years has not become well enough acquainted in the city to attempt to solve the girl question. However he is a good scholar and will surely succeed in life. MUELLER, ALFRED Gym Team. i' Plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven, As make the angels weep.H Alfred is always up to something and frequently groans of anguish are heard from his vicinity. He is noted for practical jokes which are relished by all, except the sufferer. PFAFFINGER, ELSA And a stranger when he sees her In the street even - smileth slilly Just as you would at a lily, As lilies leave a pleasant impression on the guzer, just so this dainty h'ttle 1355 does. But lilies do not reflect the smile bestowed on them; this uncommon lily does, only tenfold. ROOT, FLORENCE HThereis naught m be compared with her Throughout this wide creation. Florence always finds silver linings t0 the clouds which so often appear in school life. She is one of those young ladies who never knows a word until it is her turn for recitation. when she startles everybody by her stupendous knowledge. RODS, AUGUSTA Large in heart and brain? This young lady is known by two names, Miss R005, and Miss -e- Well, welll not give the little Freshies away, and to Show them that we Overlook this mistake, we will say that they are tidying Miss --- a high compliment. PLAUT, OSCAR H. Q. M., 62411mm! Busz'wss Staff, Or'trrlvH 5151f, Gym Yiwu. Debating Society. None but himself can be his parallel. Oscar busied himself rushing from one quarter of the city to another in search of advertisements for the ANNUAL! It was said he even forgot his hat, but wetll forgive him. Moreover, he is especially fond of abridged editions of standard authorsi SCHAEFER, LlLLlAN M. 0. Bi HAiry. fairy Lillian. filming, fahy Lillian, Glancing with blackbeaded eyes, Till the lightning Iaughters dimple 0n the cheeks of fairy Lillian. The effect which this little miss produces on one can not be described, but we all know that wherever Lillian is known, she is loved. SCHAUB, HELEN HAnd never branch the fotds combined Above a heart more good and kind. A second Helen, but one who is vastly different from the former. It would not. be difficult to imagine this Helen in Puritan apparel. SCHIEL, LUELLA HJudge Ihnu me by what I am: So shalt thou find me fairest. Bright eyes, sunny smiles and an encouraging word mark Luella a5 a friend to those who are in the least inclined to melancholy She has veriiicd the statement that i'a friend in need is a friend indeed. SCHWARTZ, BLANCHE K' If aught of prophecy be mine Thou wilt not live in vain? A hard worker, but one who is always well repaid, as her report shows. Blanche displays her loyalty to her school by taking an active part in all its affairs. Her efforts to uphold Woodwardis name and honor are unlimited. -i SHARP, FLORENCE The world has not another Tho' all her fairies! farms are lypes of thee. Nothing puts Flussie out of humor-not even Latin. Have you ever noticed how people turn to take a second glance at this young lady? SHORTEN, LAURETTA A little lady. though a very little thing. Is sweeter far than sugar, and flowers lhat bloom in spring. N How doth the little husy bee employ each shining hour! We can say this of Lauretta, for nobody has ever seen her idle. She is always buzzing at something. SIEHL, LYDIA HAnd because right is right, to fDIiuw right Were wisdom in me scorn of consequence. Lydiais motto is. iiBe sure youire right, then go ahead? and she firmly applies that motto to everything she does. Everybody admires Lydia because of her strict adherence to right. STAMMEL, CHARLES A horse! A horseL my kingdom for a hnrse! One with a sweet disposition to correspond with his: own. Charles is also interested in center ball as well as i'Eqm' Vivgi'lz'am'. STOKES, LILLIAN 5. M. O. B. HAiry.f:1iry Lillian, From thy crimson-threaded lips Silver lrebled laughlsr trilleth. The unrivalled German scholar! Just get Lillian going and you will be astounded by her conversational powers in German. Wherever there is any mischief brewing, you may he sure to find gay, fun- loving Lil at the head. 6 STRASSER, EMIL X. 2. X., HOi'arl'v Siaf, DeEarmg Soriytr. H The tails of honor dignify repose. He is a great hustler as may We hope he Emil is another hard-workecl boy. be seen by the great number of ads. in The Omrlz. will be as successful in real life. STRATEMEYER, EDWIN Thy modesty's a candle to thy merit. Edwin is especially fond of chemistry. He takes pleasure in mix- ing unknown substances together and guessing at the resulting concoction. STRATHMAN, WILLIAM I'll talk a word wlth this same learned Thebanf' William is a boy of very studious habits and at recess is generally found listening to the wise in remarks of the other boys. Til! THIRKIELD, GILBERT M. 5., Football, Trad: Team. On sleep! it is a gentle thing, Beloved from pole to polelv Gilbert is noted for coming in just as Latin Recitation begins. But he is not slow on football work and he has made himself famous by his end runs. VAN VLEET, RUBEY Even as a little ruby its secret worlh betrays. Color and price and. virtue in the clearncss of its rays, Just so a little lady much Excellence displays, Beauty and faith and love and fidelitv 0f waysi' A jewel indeed! One which the Class of '04 will always cherish. But there are others beside the Class of l'904mparticularly t0 Rubey. Class 1905 is more interesting to her. Wonder why? WAKEMAN, ALBERT M. 5.. Basket Ball, Tmrk Team, Gym Team. I built my soul a Iordly pleasure house. Wherem at ease for aye to dwell. Albert avows that his favorite study is chemistry, mathematics, Latin. English, or elocutlon. He is especially fond of drawing- Ulis breathl. WEILAND, LOUIS Debuting Sarr'afju And having the sounde Of those auncienl poets still ringing in his earesl he moughl needes in singing hil uul same of their tunes. Louis is a distinguished dehuter and is noted for his appeals to the chair. But as a poetAto attempt description would be to de- tract from his fame, WERNER, ALICE Too true to flatter and. too kind in sneer.

HE CADETS were organized in the year 1893, by Major Van Dyke, in memory of the HWoodward Guards, a company of Woodward boys who served with distinction with the Second Kentucky Infantry throughout the Civil War, and whose battle-torn flag may still be seen hanging in the hall. The Cadets may well be proud of their record, several ex-Inembers being now at Annapolis and West Point, or have already graduated with honors from those institutions. Others are in all walks of life, having in almost every instance won for themselves positions of trust and honor. The organization is an important factor of the School, and although the School as a whole does not show the proper interest in the Company, the Cadets themselves have been working hard to have a good company represent Old Woodward. Twice :1 week a passerby may hear the tramp of feet, the shouts of command, and the rattle of gun-bntts 0n brick pavements, showing that the Cadets are at work bringing themselves into shape for the annual Decoration Day parade. The Bugle Corps is an important branch of the organ- ization, and it has been brought to a high state of efficiency by Chief Bugler Eberling. The Cadets drill twice a week for the entire school year. Do they not then, as enlistment is entirely voltmtary, show more loyalty to our Alma Mater than our athletic teams which practice at the most for two months? One of the most enjoyable features of the Cadet organization is the annual practice march. It is certain those of the last two years will long be pleasant recollections t0 the participants, and the indications are that the one of thisryear will surpass all the others, as arrangements are being made to stay out several days. Last year the weather was threatening, but the sky cleared, and those who went were amply repaid. We were forced to return a day early, owing to the shortage of provisions, as the commissary department was woe- fully inefficient. HOWever, we had a fine time and some of us. have very pleasant recollections of 11 certain Inn near TOWer Hill, on which we made L1 raid on our way home. 40 PI PHI MU. LEROY FAHNESTOCK, OSCAR PLAUT.

THE Pl PHI MU is not a number of boys selected by members of other classes to represent them, but true friends banded together to aid each other and to do all in their power to promote the wel- fare and good spirit of their Class and their school. The organization was formed in the year nine- teen hundred and one, when the members were soph- omores, under the name of P. F. M. it was seen fit in the first part of their senior year to Change the name of the fraternity t0 Pi Phi Mu, under which title it has made great progress. The members represent almost every branch of school life. There is no fraternity in or out of Woodward that can claim more true friendship among its mem- bers, than exists among the brothers of the Pi Phi Mu. The boys will not drop the organization With their high school life, but will continue to hold their regular meetings until some unforseen agent shall scatter them. a The fraternity held its weekly meetings at the home of Brother Fahnestock. On Thursday night, January 7th, Brother Plaut entertained at his home. After the arrangements for the dance were made, a good time was had by all present, and refreshments were served. On January the 19th, the invitations for the dance were out. Friday evening, Fehruary 5th, witnessed this annual dance, held at the Auditorium. As the are rangements were perfect, there was no delay in the program. After dancing, until all those present were wearied, they departed carrying pleasant thoughts of the good time, which was voted by all as the greatest social success of the year. On the evening of Thursday, February 11th, the brothers witneSsed Mr. E. H. Sothern in i'The Proud Prince.H After the show, a bountiful supper was enjoyed by all. Brother Mengden tendered the members of the Pi Phi Mu a banquet on Washingtonis Birthday. All those present will testify to the good time spent in eating and playing games. On Friday evening, April lst, Brother Fahne- stock entertained the members. An evening of plea- sure was spent in fencing, pool and other games. That night a great storm arose and succeeded in drenching all on their journey homeward. Friday evening, April 22d, Brother Mengden held an open meeting at his home. After supper was served, dancing was enjoyed on the spacious porch. After a long time, we parted, sorry to go. H. AND L., '04. OFFICERS CHI SIGMA CHI. mnlnrn; BLUE AND WHITE. e?

HE MYSTIC SEVEN was serioust handicapped ' this year on account of the fact that four of the eight boys chosen for it stopped school; but it made up what it lacked in numbers by the excellent work some of its members did on the Foot Ball and Track Teams. Soon after the members were initiated they enjoyed an evening at Bob Burchts, playing flinch and other games. The next meeting was held at the house of Albert Wakeman, When arrangements for the Annual Banquet were made. On the 28th of December the Annual Banquet was held at the Stag Cafe. Several boys from out of town were present, and every Chapter was represented by two or more members. The banquet was voted 21 success. Gilbert Thirkield had a meeting at his house the hrst week in January, to decide about the M. S. dance. The date determined upon was the 18th of March. 49 ALBERT WAKEMANt GILBERT THIRKIELD. Soon after, Donald Woodward entertained by having the members address and stamp invitations to the dance. When this was fmished the boys enjoyed themselves in a more pleasing way. The week before the dance the boys went to see Sir Henry Irving in the t! Merchant of Venice, which came in the line of school reading and was all the more appreciated for that reason. The Mystic Seven Dance on the 18th of March, at the Walnut Hills Mansion, was the success of the year. About sixty couples, consisting mostly of Woodward, Walnut Hills and University people, were present. Mrs. Woodward and Miss Donnelly chaperoned. I Bob Burch entertained the M. S. and the 't Knughts at his house on Thursday evening, March Elst. An enjoyable and rather noisy time was had recalling incidents of various toot ball games, the one at Miamisburg in particular. On several occasions during the year the M. S. boys were royally entertained by the M. O. B. girls. STELLA BAEHR' BESSIE BRITTON. ROBERTA DAVY. REBECCA HOPKINS. ELSIE MEYER. LlLLIAN SCHAEFER.

There is nothing better than deliberative oratory for brightening and sharpening the wits, nor can a better means be suggested whereby the rough corners of a hesitating speech may be rounded off. What is a greater bure than to be compelled to listen to an ua-a-du-and-a-du-a't talker or one who leaves half his conversation to nyou know?

THOMAS ACKERLAND J e ' HE ART LEAGUE, the first of its kind in Cincin- nati, was organized in December, 1902, at a meeting of the entire school. Officers were elected, Major Van Dyke being made President. The dues of the League were fixed at five cents per month for active members; in addition, pro- vision was made that any one contributing $1.00 or more per year be admitted to associate membership. The purpose of the League is to develop a love for the beautiful in environment, whether school, home or municipal. The funds collected are to be used for the improvement of the building and grounds, the purchasing of pictures for the walls of the school and the securing of illustrated lectures on art topics. The active membership includes the entire student body, while the alumni, parents and friends of the school swell the list of associate members. The features of the school that most needed improvement were the entrance doors and the halls. The solid doors left the hall dark, while their weight made the openingr and Closing a matter of considerable effort. Sufficient money having been 58 5 Aug...:.... L. collected and permission from the Union Board of High Schools having been secured, new doors and large art glass transoms and panels, admitting the requisite light to the hitherto gloomy halls, were put in place. The $400 required for painting the halls was realized from the Kayama, an entertainment given during the latter part of May, 1903. These, with the large wrought iron sconce and lamp for the Franklin Street entrance, make the list of the flrst yearts improvements. Professor Shearer, 0f the Mechanicst institute, and Mr. A. 0. Elmer, architect, gave instructive and eloquent illus- trated lectures on the subject of municipal art. These achieveu ments attracted the attention of the Municipal Art Society, and at the suggestion of Mr. Gest, that body presented Woodward High School with four large garden urns in recognition of the successful efforts of the Art League. These urns, mounted on pedestals purchased by the League, have been placed, two on either side of the bronze statue of William Woodward, and when filled with flowers adds beauty to the School environment. An interesting course of lectures and further improvement in the halls are promised for the coming year. November 9, 1903. The existence of this Club is due mainly to the efforts of Mr. Justin Weddell whose sincere eloquence aroused the dormant spirit of the students. His suggestion for the organization of a club, quoting Mr. Weddell exactly, To form a Rooting Bunch, and by their presence and the gener- ous use of their voices, encourage our warriors on the gridiron, track, field and in the rostrum, was received with wild approval. The initial appearance of the Club, November 13, 1903, at the Interscholastic Championship Game between Wood- ward and Walnut Hills at Cincinnati Bail Park, will long be remembered by all. About four-hundred students, together with many alumni and fond parents, gorgeously bedeek'ed with ribbons, badges and pennants, completely filled the'east end of the grandstand. Mr. Weddell showed extraordinary ability as a leader and so conducted his rooters that their songs and yells floated full and strong across the field and thrilled the players with a. greater determination to win the game, and not once did we hear the defiant cries of our opponents, for our gallant Club shouted them down. 59 The Club next accompanied the Debating Society when they met Walnut Hills, on Friday, February 19, 1904, but the voices of neither the speakers or the routers could convince the judges, and the IIbunch returned rather cresttallen. The last appearance of the Club enforce was at the Mid- Winter Carnival of the Y. M. C. A. and A. A. U. at the O. N. G. Armory, February 25, 1904. In anticipation of this event, Mr. Weddell worked industriously, contracting for a large sec- tion of seats, and seeing that each member was provided with an advantageous place. Early in the evening the Rooters exchanged yells of defiance with their opponents and then re- mained quiet until their team appeared on the track, then they cheered most heartily. Later, when Mr. Burch won the Fifty Yard Dash, they cheered and cheered, but when our team won the One Mile Relay Race they went wild, and Capt. Boyle was borne on the shoulders of the excited crowd. Well might they be joyous, for on that night Old Woodward counted as her own the champion titty yard sprinter and Relay Team of the State. In recognition of the yeoman services of the Club, the President, on March Elst, was made honorary member of the Athletic Committee.

In this retrospective search, triumphs over books, Latin verses, Greek prose and all branches of learn- ing are forgotten; the sputtering, scratching pen, so lately powerful, lifts on high beseechingly his conquests, unnoticed; the Silvered tongue of the orator, which but yesterday swayed the minds of multitudes, now cries out for notice in vain. What is it that now has power to attract the attention of the mighty senior and to make him forget these other things? It is the athlete, and as he bears aloft upon his brawny arms the trophies of his victories he compels obeisance, and in after years the graduate proudly tells of the championships won in his or her 63 senior year. It is the one great pleasure to remember and look back upon in connection with school life. Whatwould school be without athletics ? Last September, at the beginning of the school term, the athletic prospects at Woodward were very uncertain. Our first duty was to form a foot ball team. Many of last years players, on whom we depended, had not returned, and we all felt very much discouraged. But Captain Propheter worked steadily with the few men who came out for practice, and after a time suc- ceeded in getting fifteen men together. This squad comprised all the available foot ball material in the school. Mr. Baum- gartrier, a former foot ball captain and athlete 0f Woodward, still enthusiastic over athletics and imbued with an undying love for his school, and Mr. Feder, captain of last yearis team, kindly lent their assistance in forming a team, which they hoped might creditably represent Woodward against the other schools. They worked hard. By their untiring efforts and careful study, by their unfaltering patience and determination, they made a charm - pionship team possible. Their minds were so thoroughly im- bued with their purpose that the same spirit was transferred to ATHLETIC COMMITTEE. the minds of the players. The players worked hard. Success turned its shining countenance upon us. We attracted the attention of the people. Everywhere our team played could be seen a galaxy of newspaper reporters. Finally we played a tie game with the University of Cincinnati. We could now almost see the championship glittering ahead of us; still the coaches worked and still the team practiced. Our coaches left no stone unturned under Which the championship might lie hidden. And now Mr. Weddell forms a Rooterst Club, which is a great in- centive to the team. They know they are relied upon and they can not disappoint their friends. And so they develop a de- termination and self-confidence that must conquer all, and does, for after an exciting game at League Park, November 13, 1903, Woodward holds the title of Interscholastic Champions of Cin- cinnati in foot ball, defeating our rival,Walnut Hills, for the flrst time in nine years. And so ended the most successful foot ball season Woodward has ever experienced. The basket ball team next takes the field and the hearts of the audiences. This team had the same trouble as the foot ball team at first. The candidates were all new men. Capt. Hull practiced them regularly and got them into good shape, but suc- cess did not come to them at once. They were defeated again and again, but the Woodward determination and stick-to-it- iveness again made itself evident and things began to 100k timely interference of the faculty on account of chat trip to Hillsbom. Still, we may righteously claim the Interscholastic Basket Ball Championship, as neither Hughes nor Walnut Hills accepted our challenge. Our next great achievement was the winning of the Inter- scholastic Indoor Track Championship of Ohio at the Mid- Winter Carnival. Here our relay team, under the leadership of Captain Boyle, easily outran their opponents and were awarded a beautiful silver cup, which may be seen in Mr. Jonest room, and also a gold medal to each member. The team was composed of Burch, Thirkield, Wakeman and Boyle, all of Whom have become famous. I need not tell how our Bobby won the hfty yard dash; l need not tell how our loyal rooters turned out; for these subjects were familiar upon the lips of every Wood- wardite for a month after the event. Although the base ball season has scarcely begun, yet we feel sure, that, with such an able Captain as Mr. Krehbiel and such an efficient Manager as Mr. OtCOnnell, the season can not be otherwise than successful. We rely upon them entirely and are confident of seeing the pennant floating triumphantly over the heads of our victorious heroes at the end of the season. And now, as a last word, let me say that our athletics at Woodward have been steadily rising to a higher standard each year. Gradually we attained the position in athletic circles, brighter. They defeated several rival schools and were on the which rightfully belongs to the oldest and most respected school high road to success, when their career was cut short by the un- in Cincmnatl, and we mean to keep it.

The pupils and teachers of Woodward received quite a surprise one pleasant afternoon, in the form of a flre. On December 8th, the School received a rare treat by making the acquaintance of Admiral Schley. The friends Of the M. O. B. recollect the enjoyable time they spent at the dance, December 3lst, at the E1- beron Country Club. A football dance, given in the Gymnasium 0n the 29th of January, proved an enjoyable affair. A lecture on HRailway Construction? was delivered to the School by Mrs. Wilde, on January 29th. On February 5th the Senior Chapter of the Pi Phi Me entertained with an enjoyable dance at the Auditorium. The Iota Chapter of the Chi Sigma Chi Fraternity gave a very pleasant dance at the Walnut Hills Mansion, on February 18th. On February 19th Woodward was defeated, but not vanquished, in a debate with Walnut Hills. The Juniors favored the Seniors With a delightful dance on February 26th, at the Avondale Lodge Hall. 79 We all remember the glorious Mid-Winter Carnival of 1904! The Founder's Day exercises were held on March 8th, in the assembly hall of the school building. The Mystic Seven received their friends on March 18th, at the Walnut Hills Mansion. The Minstrel Show occurred Friday, April 8th, and was a great success. Mr. Penneman, Dean of Pennsylvania University, ad- dressed the School on Monday, April 18th, on 't The Differ- ence Between Material Wealth and Intellectual Wealth. The students enjoyed Mr. Penneman's talk, and tendered him a unanimous vote of thanks. On April 29th, a return dance was given to the Juniors by the Seniors, at Walnut Hills Mansion. The Senior Chemistry Class enjoyed a visit to the home of Ivory Soap, at Proctor 8i Gamblets establishment, Friday, May 20th, and on the Wednesday following a visit was paid to Fleischmannts Distillery. Both trips were heartily enjoyed by all. Commencement Exercises were held Friday Evening, June 3rd. at Music Hall, walnut E1115 Mnnhmarh gymnh Annual Erhatp Eh? walnut ifailla-mnnhmarh Ethan. HE SECOND ANNUAL DEBATE between the Woodward and Walnut Hills High School De- bating Societies, took place at the last men- tioned school, Friday, February 19th, 1904. Messrs. Glickert tcaptaini, Harris and Weiland were selected to defend the negative side of the subject, H Resolved, There should be further legislation by the United States restricting immigration. The eloquence of the three young orators was par excellence, but unfortunately their elo- quence did not carry them to victory, and two of the three judges passed up a decision against them. Mr. Harris, the first speaker for Woodward, met Mr. Cumminsts arguments point for point, and he clearly showed 80 by the reading of the laws, bearing on the subject, that no further legislation was necessary in this matter. Mr. Glickert spoke next for Woodward, and if a more eloquent, or more interesting and truthful speech could have as smoothly tlowed from the mouth of any young man his age, or from any of his opponents, we will draw our statement, that Mr. Glickertis eloquence was paramount. Mr. Weiland closed the debate for Woodward With a burst of oratory and literary color that paid much for the glorious work of the WOODWARD DE- BATING SOCIETY. But they lost. Why? As 1 before stated in the Oracle, Hask the Sphinx? Never mind however, we have a third trial next year and let our watchword be VICTORY!!! s. A. A. ,7 ,4 le: I, The OraCle,, Minstrels iHrngram.

As tar back as the fourth century before our era, Alexander of Macedon with his myriads of Grecian soldiers attempted to impose Greek domination on the world, and to make Greek the language of the greater part of mankind. Long after Assyria, Babylonia, and Egypt had failed in their attempts to conquer the world, Caesar strove with might and main to make Latin the universal language. Yet his vain dreams and ultimate failure did not deter a Napoleon in his fond vision of a world-conquest. And now again is there a new claimant for the first place among the languages of the world, another aspirant for the honor of being the universal tongue among the children of men. This time it is the Engiish-speaking people, the fair-haired sons of the North, in whose veins Hows the blood of tire and energy, who are coming to the front with the claim that theirs is 83 destined to be the language of the civilized world. Let us see what strength there is in their claim. in speaking of the subject, English as the World Language , we can use the terms peopleii and Hlanguageu interchangeably. A peoplets language is after all an unfailing indication of its peculiar bent, and is in fact, the best ex- pression of the natiorial genius. And just as we say the style is the manti, so we say that the language is the people. When we speak, then, of English as a world language, we mean that the English-speaking people, as bearers of that language, are destined to become the leaders and rulers of the world, and to carry their language to the furthermost corners of the globe. We have seen that this claim now put forth by the English-speaking people is not a new one in the annals of history. Alexander made a hercuiean effort to spread the Greek tongue and Greek customs throughout Asia, and labored on with this one purpose until an untimely death carried him away and shattered his dreams of world-empire. Greek culture and Greek civilization were indeed spread over the Orient and Greek became the language of the educated world, but the vast empire he had built up crumbled away, and was divided among his four generals, who fought with One another like wild beasts over their prey. With his death all his great plans vanished like a mist, and all hope .of a world-dominion under the Greek standard came to an end. Alexanders failure to achieve the great work he had set out to perform was no less complete than that of Casar. Caesar, the great egotist, the man of unbounded ambition and thirst for conquest, who combined in himself the qualities of writer, of warrior, and 0f statesman, also cherished the vain dream of a world-conquest, of a dominion whose limits should be determined only by the power of his army and the cunning of his generalship. But that which stirred him on, carried him over the alps, and even to distant Britain, was in the end the cause of his great downfall. The massive struc- ture of Ambition which he strove to erect, toppled over and buried him beneath its falling ruins. Even after he had de- feated Pompeii, and had overcome one after another of the adversaries who opposed him in his efforts to make Rome supreme among the nations, he fell at the hands of the jealous Cassius and the noble Brutus, who in what he considered the common good to all, made one of the party that brought to an end the ambition of the mighty Cesar. The fierce civil strife following closely upon his death, put an end forever to the dream once cherished of making Rome's language that of the world. Napoleon made the greatest attempt of all to conquer the world with the edge of the sword. He undertook to subdue almost all of Europe, and to inspire all the nations with fear of his arms. But when finally he attempted to subdue Russia, he found he had undertaken a task beyond his powers, and Was in the end forced to retreat, leaving his demoralized army in the cold embraces of the North. This retreat was the 84 funeral dirge over his vision of a world-empire. Europe saw that he was not invincible and immediately began to show a more vigorous opposition to him. And finally when after the decisive battle of Waterloo Napoleon capituiated and was exiled to St. Helena, his dream of conquest was at an end. in the attempts of all threeeof Alexander, of Caesar, and of Napoleonetheir faith was in the strength of their arms and in the might of their battalions. They aimed to make their language and their customs universal by dint of power and of might. And yet is it not strange that in the school of experience men have ever refused to learn from the lips of the Oracle of History and to profit by the mistakes of their prede- cessors? All fell through the same error. The English-speaking peoples have benefited by the mis- takes of those who sought to conquer by sheer force. They have taken the lessons of history to heart, and have profited by the bitter experiences of the former aspirants for the place of the world-Ianguage. In their efforts to make English uni- versal they are employing the arts of peace rather than the arts of war. As broad-minded men in the forefront of the march toward enlightenment, they are looking forward to the time when men shall Hbeat their spears into pruning-hooks, and their swords into plough-shares, and shall learn war no more. The time for wars of conquest, for the mere satisfac- tion of boundless ambition and insatiable thirst for power is past. Deeply imbued with this thought, their aggression is being made not by power and not by might, but by the spirit of thrift and of energy. It is needless to say that the United States is making itself felt in the world of commerce, and that its manufactures are being utilized in every part of the world. Our English cousins are hardly less active, and between the two, Engiish is being carried into every part of the globe. Thus an onslaught is being made which can not be resisted, and an aggressive policy employed, against which nothing can prevail. Men can resist the power of arms, but they can not oppose the cleverness 0f the English-speaking people 01' the ingenuity of the Yankee. Nothing can stand before his. ad- vances. His manufactures are now considered among the best in the world, his wares are found in the most remote markets of the earth. His skill in the scientific and technical pursuits is everywhere in demand. But it is not only because of the thrift and energy of the English-speaking peoples that their language is destined to become that of the world. There is in the language itself an intrinsic value, arising from a rich and vast literature that is coming more and more into recognition among those who can . IIIIIm I 5 :lli,l understand and appreciate the wealth and beauty that are found among the treasures of the poet and the writer. Among what other nations are there to be found lofty minds with such power to illuminate the worldts darkness as have been num- bered among the inspired writers of our English literature? Who can compare with a Shakespeare, the greatest dram- atist the world has ever known; with :1 Milton, a Long- fellow, or a Whittier? The world is turning with ever greater readiness to the rich mines of English literature, yielding to the force of its teachings and to the power of its thought. All these forces will combine to make English the uni- versal language; and just as Latin became that of the scholar and French that of the court, so English is destined to become ever more the universal tongue and finally to cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Joseph Getalsan. 23 Alumni 1E! 24. omo NE warm, bright day in August, 1924, while I was ' taking a vacation trip through the northern states and along the lake shore, the train, after a long and steady run, drew up into a small depot in one of the suburbs of Chicago. It was my intention to see the beautiful parts of the Cities which I visited, and accordingly I left the train, intending to stroll about and enjoy the beauties of the suburbs. As I stepped upon the platform and looked around, I saw a face which I thought I recognized. Suddenly the name occurred to me. 1 approached the man, extending to him my hand with a Hello, Hippo! well! well! how do you ever happen to be here? He answered me with a hearty hand- shake and H How do you do, Albert? 1 never expected to meet you here. I heard that John Glickert was going through here on the train about nine otclock this morning, so I thought I would try and catch a glimpse of him as he passed. John has gotten to be quite an influential politician, you know. H Yes, Vve heard quite a good deal about him lately, but, say, do you live here? 't Yes? said Hippo, Hdo take a stroll with me up toward our house. I will be very glad to entertain one of my old Woodward friends. So we strolled along, arm in arm, and under such circum- stances we naturally fell to discussing what had become of the members of the old Class. So Lenz Lovering went off to the sea, did he? said Hippo. Yes, I answered, Hhe wasnlt 86 satisfied with western life and, as he told me once he would like to go to sea, he decided to try his fortune upon the waters, but with what success I have not heard. ll Well, have you heard of our new college which has just been built not very far from here? HNo,H said 1, H l havenlt.H l! We shall soon hold the dedication exercises at the Kaeuper College of Music and Dormitory. Miss Alma Kaeuper has gained great renown in musical circles all over the world. - l haverft been feeling well for a few days, added Hippo, Hand if you dontt mind, welll take a walk around by the drug store and get some headache powders.H We turned down a street and after walking about two squares we came to a place which had upon the windows, in large letters, ll Ferd. Zuenkeler, Pharmacist. Mr. Zuenkeler had changed some- what in appearance, but he was the same jovial fellow that I had known twenty years before. We then walked back toward ML Mengdents house and there, after being introduced to Mrs. Mengden and their two blooming children, 1 felt quite at home, for they had a very cozy dwelling, not to mention the hospitality of the occupants. As I sat looking around me, my eyes fell upon a picture of extraordinary beauty. Seeing me so interested in it, my friend asked: HDo you kn0w who painted the original of that? ll Upon my answering in the negative, he informed me that it had come from the skillful hand of Miss Emma Andriessen. Know- ing that I had always been interested in books, he showed me two new ones which He had just bought. One was ii Pleasures of School Lite,H by Miss Rebecca Hopkins, the other was ttThe Art nf Writing Poetry, written by Miss McGee, who had gained a reputation several years before, when her Ode to Composition received a warm reception in the literary world. H But you haven't told me what you are doing,H said I. HI am working in chemicals? said he, m Zuenkeler and 1 often experiment together, and we go to the city to report the results to the city chemist under whose employ I am working.H I then told him that 1 expected to return to Yale after my vaca- tion to occupy the position of assistant professor of the Greek language and literature. HMiss Blanche Schwartz has recently been offered the Latin chair at Oxford,H said Hippo. TShe is indeed worthy of the position, I replied, HWe always remem- ber her as a diligent student, and a loyal scholar of Woodward. While we were talking he picked up a magazine which was tying upon a table near by, saying, HOliver Dock is editor of this magazine. He is making a good salary now from the same employment which he began as an amateur at Wood- ward. Then Opening to a page of current news, he handed it to me. Among the various articles were the following: H New York, August 2, 1924. Mr. Otto Krippendorf is rapidly ascend- ing the ladder of fame and fortune.

BY BARNETT A. BARIMORE. N the yea r1865 great numbers of immigrants were crossing the piains, as the Civil War had just ended and many men who had enlisted in the ranks were again seeking employment. The Hgold feverH 0f the year ,49 was being re- vived, especially as new mines had been Young men were beginning to accept Horace Greeiyts famous statement, H G0 west young man, go invest and grow up with the country.

For mutual protection these immigrants formed themselves into bodies as 'i Wagon Trains ,, or ii Prairie Schooners. r Contrary to the general ruie, our i schooner t, belonged to one man, by the name of M. C. Morse, who had fitted it out far the purpose of conveying a shipment of merchandise to the mines in Montana. It was composed of thirty-six wagons and was accompanied by some forty 0r forty-tive men, employed as drivers and herders. The route selected by Mr. Morse was a new one, having just been mapped out the year before. It lay through the Indiants choicest hunting grounds and was therefore very dan- gerous, but it shortened the journey by two or three weeks and was therefore taken in preference to all others. it lay parallel with a stage route however, as far as Julesburg, a little settle- ment on the South Platte River. Here the two separated, the stage route going due west and the other inclining to the north. It was at this junction that the owner, Mr. Morse, left the train, intending to complete the journey by stage. Before going, however, he gave the men a banquet from the provisions contained in the wagons. On this occasion he made them a speech, closing with these words, the future disregarding of which cost three men their lives. lndians, be afraid of them! I would rather 5631?be Indiansthan not see one! Boys, you know what I expect of you; do it. This speech served to make them vigilant for a few days, He said: if you donlt see but their watchfulness decreased when, after two weeks' travel, 110 Indianslappeared. We will pass over all incidents and ad-t ventures of this journey until the train arrived at the iiDry Fork of the Cheyenne. At this point the Cheyenne becomes a sort of H dis- appearing river,H that is, it flows peaceably and quietly along the surface of the ground for a mile or so and then disappears, again to be seen a mile or two further on. The river, however, has flowed at some time or other as one continuous stream above ground, thus leaving traces of its former bed, which, although called dry, contains numerous pools of cool, clear water not suitable for drinking, but splendid for bathing, as it contains some bitter but invigorating mineral substance. Such is the scene of our story, which I will continue as Arthur after- wards described it:- The location being favorable and the day being hot, a bathing party was formed consisting of myself, my companion twhom the writer called Beni, three otheg drivers and a herds- man. It was about three or four in the afternoon when we left camp, which was situated about a half a mile from the river on a small eminence overlooking a tlat piece of country, stretch- ing away to the i Fork t. On reaching the river we followed its course down about a quarter of a mile or so to where the pools were most numer- ous. Here we all took our plunges, but 1, taking a chill from the cold water, lcame out, and dressed myself; however, not wishing to return to camp alone, I waited for the others. Hln the meantime I climbed upon a small ledge of the sandstone bank, to scratch my initials in the rock. it The left hand bank, on the one nearest camp, rose at an angle of about seventy degrees to a height of nearly thirty feet. At points it was ledged by projecting portions of rock, the rest being a plain even surface. This side could only be scaled at this point by a narrow animal trail formed by wolves and other animals coming down to drink. The other bank was a gentle rise, covered with a slight growth of vegetation. From the top of this ledge could be had an unobstructed view for miles. l had just completed the operation of engraving my initials in the sandstone, when a slight rustle overhead attract- ed my attention. On looking up, I beheld to my horror two young ibuckst in full war-paint. I liAsl glanced upwards, one of them whipped an arrow from his quiver and in the twinkle of an eye 1 dodged under the ledge above me; none too soon however, for the flint head of the bolt shattered the sandstone on which I had been standing. H I called to my companions, who were now dressed. To Not till then did I feel the force of Mr. Morse's words: lBe afraid of Indians if my surprise the lndians had disappeared. you dorft see anyli Oh, how I longed to set my eyes on those Ibucks, again, if it were only to see where they were. I wished to look behind me, but desired equally as well to look before me. I felt as it the two Indians were multiplied to hundreds. To my relief my companions soon came up. IBoysf I said, Ithere are hostile Indians above usf As one man they all dodged under the ledge above where I was standing, to the great embarrassment of some whose heads came together with a resounding whack! HWhile we were holding a COuncil of war, Johnson, the herder, who accompanied us, suddenly gave the startling news that a party of about thirty mounted Indians were coming towards the right hand bank. i' Our plans were quickly formed. The herder and one of the drivers decided to follow the bed of the river back the way we had come; but I, my friend and the rest decided to Icut upl the animal trail to the top of the bank, where we could see what was going on. I started up first, Carr, one of the drivers, followed, my friend third, and so on. To my surprise and consternation on nearing the top, I beheld the two Indians who had first attract- ed my notice; to turn back was bad, perhaps worse than going forward; so I went forward followed by the rest. i'One Ibuck' had an arrow fitted to his bow, the other held a single-barreled dueling pistol and a switch, Unfortu- nately, as I should have before stated, none of us were armed. HAS 1 dashed up to the ibravesi the one cut me a lash across the face with his switch, at the same time grunting iHow-howf ii Carr, who followed me, received the same lash and the I replied, iHow-howX and darted on. same salute, iHow-howf to which he replied, iHow-dt-doJ They were the last words he ever spoke, the dueling pistol Clicked the death second of his life. I felt ititoo, as I had per- suaded him both in coming to bathe and also in taking this route back. H In the confusion that followed, the others escaped, not however, before the driver who followed my companion was pierced by an arrow. II Now a new trouble arose. The mounted savages whom we had seen galloping towards the right hand bank had by some means crossed the bed of the river and were now riding at full speed in their endeavor to cut us off from camp. On they came; our chances grew smaller and smaller; their heinous war-cry rang louder and louder in our ears: iKi- Yi, Ki-Yi, Ri-Yi, Wo-Woit it came bounding across the plains as did their ugly little ponies, now warmed up to the spirit of their masters. lt fairly seemed as if Satan was at our heels with a pack of hell-hounds. l endeavored to draw off my heavy hide boots, but could not-my wind was giving out and I could feel sharp pains every now and then shoot through my heart,-my companion gave out and fell down almost purple in the face-l ran back, picked him up, and grasping; his hands pulled him on. Night was now closing in. I glanced back at our pursuers and measured the distance between us with my eye. As I did so I for the first time saw their leader. He was a tall, well-built man, all-hideous in war colors and bedecked in blue and red feathers. As the last rays of the setting sun diarted across his dusky countenance and lit up the sarcastic, fiendish smile which played upon his lips, i saw he was a white renegade. ii Providence was with us; the men at camp hearing the uproar out on the plains, caused by the howling 0f the sav- ages, suspected the truth and sent a party to our assistance, which came none too soon, for my companion sank t0. the ground from sheer exhaustion. We carried him to camp. UA party was formed, with myself a guide, to go back and get Carr and the other driver, and to see what had become of the herder. We found Carr and Moore, which was the name of the other driver, where they had fallen. Both were pierced with The savages had scalped them and Moore was still breathing, but he died when we attempted to carry him to camp. from eight to ten arrows. cut off their noses. HAbout half a mile from where we had bathed we fqund the herder pierced by a dozen arrows. Near by we came across the driver hiding in a small hole in the bank. He said he had seen them kill Johnson and had given himself up for lost when he discovered this hole. That night was the most solemn and awful that i ever spent on the prairies. We dug three graves by the flickering The wagon master made a feeble attempt at a funeral service, and we all sang tMy Country Ti:- of Thee,i the only hymn we knew. light of a lantern. However, in that set of rough, hardened men not a dry eye could be seen. HOver and over, as i lay that night with a rifle for a pillow, did those words of Wolfets Ode, I had learned when a boy at school, gently repeat themselves in my mind: tt t We buried him darkly, at the dead of night, The sods with our bayonets turning, By the struggling moon-beamB misty light, And the lanterns dimly burning. No useless coffin enclosed his breast, Not in sheet or shroud we wound him, Few and short were the prayers we said; And we spoke not a word of sorrow, But steadfastly gazed 0n the face of the dead, And we bitterly thought of the murrowB t! m Evtrnzpertinn. In the softly gathering twilight I am dreaming of the past. On a canvas all ethereal there appears, Wrought by Memory, master artist, A bright picture, neter cfercast By the shadows cast by clouds of misty years. Distant from the city,s uproar On a quaint, retired street, Where the lofty sycamore trees, 01d and grand, Overshade its massive gate-posts And the green sward at their feet, How within that classic structure In our search for knowledge wide, We have traversed mathematicts broad domains, Peeped into the world of science, Into rocky secrets pried, Read the mysteries of the heavents starlit plainst There the languages we mastered, Spoken in a foreign clime, Opened naturets book of birds and beasts and howers, Fought with armor mailed heroes Battles of the olden time, There our dear old Woodward High School used to stand. With the poet lingered in sweet woodland bowerst But those happy days are over, They have drifted with the tide Slowly backward, backward from times rocky shore. Wafted from them, fragrant memories On the inland breezes ride Of old Woodward and the class of nineteenhfour. EDITH E. McGEE. '04. 92 2,,- mr L? :1, w.
