EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE King Bishop Dan Hoyt Leavitt Hallock Mildred McCreary Elsie Rickman A II i^storg N September of 1911, Zeppelins were not as numerous as they are now, but, nevertheless, even at that time, if one had enough determination I and perspicuity, a Zeppelin was procurable. That is why the class of 1915 embarked upon the sea of knowledge, or, rather, into the airy heights of learning in an airship. Other classes have been known to start the journey in a ship or train, or even by foot, but none within the scope of my recollection has begun, yes, and finished, the trip by Zeppelin. This fact alone ought to show the superiority and modern trend of thought of the class of 1915. Our first journey was very successful, for, of course, we came down to earth again at the end of nine months. There were a few,, however, for whom such heights and such soarings were really too much. These did not ascend again when the crew was embarking on its second jour­ ney. There were also some who found that it would be best to leave the Zeppelin before it had finished its maiden voyage, so each took his life into his hands and jumped for the receding land. Many of these we have not seen since, but we hope that they landed safely. After three months of vacation those who loved to learn, and those whose parents loved to have them learn, embarked again. This time we flew up to that corner of the sky which is known as the Realm of Sopho­ mores. We wanted to hitch our airship to a star, you see. When one is flying about in this part of the heavens, he feels that his estimation of the distance of his Freshman flight was really ridiculous. Why, as Sopho­ mores, we could, and did, look down upon the Freshmen with utmost scorn in our glances. The next year we flew to Junior heights, and anyone who has been a Junior will tell you what rosy clouds were around us, and how airily we tripped the light fantastic at the Junior-Senior and at the other Junior dances. We were also learning to become great orators. With Cicero and Miss O'Grady for examples, who could not discourse in stir­ ring tones upon almost any subject? Juniors are such important people. But it was as Seniors, stately, dignified Seniors, that our budding talent and scintillating wit were most patent. This time we flew above the rose and golden clouds of Juniordom into the nebulous hazes of the Freshmen, we flew about the aerial paths of learning, soaring upwards kingdom of Seniors. Far above the haunts of Juniors, Sophomores and and ever up. And now our wonderful voyage is nearing its end. There have been times when the lilting motion of our Zeppelin has been irksome, and there have been sandbags in the shape of report cards, which have pulled us earthwards. But we have always managed to pass through the dark and dreary side of the clouds, and come out on the wonderful, shining, silver side. And no matter how black and hopeless our clouds have looked, the lovely silver lining has always been discovered. This has given us the courage with which to pass through the thicker clouds which we may meet when we have left our well-beloved Zeppelin "East" and have flown off in the Zeppelin "Higher Education" or "Work."

HEN the airship, "Education," on its second exploring expedition, discovered the planet, East High, in 1912, there were many pas­ W sengers eager to stop there and explore. All were anxious to see what the. strange gold and blue planet would hold for them. As they stepped upon the threshold of this new world a strange being approached, who gave them a blue thread with just a tint of gold in it. This thread, he said, was knowledge, which' all must follow, who desire to travel through this region. As they journeyed along the pathway of their course they noticed that the surrounding country was barren and desolate. If anyone had gone before them they seemed to have left no trace of their going. But the little group of explorers went plodding along without time for much else except to watch the thread carefully, for it was hard to pick out amidst the blue rocks of the planet. But a year rolled by, and the anniversary of the beginning of their enterprise came and went. On entering the threshold of the Sophomore region they noticed that the land about them seemed to have been traversed recently. The thread of knowledge was becoming more easy to find as they advanced from day to day. They determined to leave some evi­ dence of their own journey to later explorers. They united their efforts with the party just ahead of them and left three beautiful pictures in this region. It was in this year that two of the company brought honor to their companions by receiving second and third prizes in a contest of physical skill with members of more experienced parties. During the third year of exploration, two prominent members, who had followed the thread even during the time given for rest, left their fellow-members behind, and joined the party ahead. It was one of these members who, later in the year, won the first prize for an essay on the "Perry Centennial." In this third region were buildings which earlier explorers had found time to build. Into some of these only those discoverers could enter who had been more successful in following the golden thread. These buildings were called "Laurean" and "Demosthenean." But a third building called the "Class" all could enter and enjoy the good times allowed therein. In this later structure the travelers formed an organization which assisted them in making a more orderly march during the rest of their third year. They are just now on the threshold of the fourth and last region of the planet. The thread of knowledge has turned to a bright gold with just a tinge of blue. The organization has changed hands. But the party of explorers are planning to do something to show their love and honor which they have acquired in this wonderful country. They hope to do something to make the planet proud to have had them as inhabitants. So let us leave them to continue their happy course through the remaining part of their journey and wish them the best of luck until the airship of "Life" picks them up and carries them to lands more difficult to travel through.

53 — B II 44 A LL the world's a stage"—and we have almost reached the end of _/\_ the third act of our little drama. Can we analyze our sensations as we gaze backward, seeking to penetrate the forgotten past? Our freshman year—the curtain dropped on that so long ago that the impressions made by that first act are already hazy and shadowy. The events are ancient history; and, after all, were they so very different from the experiences of other fiats? We thought so, but it was an illu­ sion, as rhetoricals were to us then. We accomplished the same work and play, we lived through the same torturing not-to-be-named festivity ( ?) along in the fall; in fact, we were comfortably insignificant. But we were not idle. We acquired an immense amount of school spirit and loyalty, which displayed itself dramatically in the second act. We first distinguished ourselves in that second year by the spirit with which we helped the seniors buy East's beautiful piano. We were more active in the cause than either the freshmen or the juniors. But the day which stands out bright and clear in our sophomore year is Presentation Day. Were we proud on that day, when we occupied (in other words, sat in) the senior rows in the auditorium? Maybe not! Those five beau­ tiful pictures are a standing tribute of our loyalty to East. But, ah! the third act. Our little drama has no crisis in the middle ; the action rises and rises with growing intensity until at last the grand climax and denouement come at the same time—at the end of the fourth act. And the third act—surely the junior year is the j oiliest of all. The atmosphere, while electric, is not too tense. We have privileges without burdensome senior responsibilities. We have found our place, and lost our stage-fright. Perhaps the secret of our ability to absorb so much pleasure is that we are learning to accomplish more with less work. We are having our first taste of being a complete self-governing unit; insig­ nificant, to be sure, compared with the seniors, but still a unit. And we are developing a strong spirit for our class of '16. We cannot tell what the fourth act holds in store for us. But we are sure it must be something big and glorious. And the denouement will mean only happiness and pride in our class, and continued devotion to our Alma Mater, East. MARION E. GLUECK, '16.

T doesn't seem long ago that we entered the dear old school of East, but yet we have passed the second mile-stone in our high school I career and are now on the third lap in the race for knowledge. To us the first lap of this four-mile race seemed like a nightmare until we became accustomed to the course in which we were to run. The first mile was uneventful except for obstacles such as Algebra problems, Latin rules, and English themes, which continued to obstruct our path. To some pupils these obstructions seemed insurmountable, and some took a side path and trotted along as they pleased, while others sped along undismayed with their eyes upon the goal. To them the name "flat" or "freshie" meant nothing. There were also minor troubles, such as learning rules for the library and lunch-room, and trying to hear at rhetoricals. The judges were represented by the teachers who showed their appreciation of our great perseverance by giving us zeros, when we thought we were doing fairly well. Thus we kept up our pace and were soon crossing the line which marked the end of the first lap. We now had our second wind and were accustomed to the difficulties under which we were laboring. Everything seemed to favor us; we were given splendid seats in the balcony, we found the way to our respective rooms without having to ask haughty seniors, we became better ac­ quainted with the teachers and they with us, we learned "Rackety-Cax" and all the other inspiring "yells." It was now that we began to really enjoy high school life; but the most significant event of the entire second mile, and that which will make the participants stand out in the history of East High School for years to come, took place when the pupils of the class of 1917 presented the school with five beautiful pictures which now adorn the walls of the second floor and auditorium. "The Night Watch," a portrait of Rembrandt, and the "Syndics of the Cloth Guild," were painted by Rembrandt. The fourth picture is "The Avenue of Middle Harnnis," by_ Hobbema, and the last, but not of less importance, is a Dutch scene by Ruysdael. Thus we scored in the second mile of our high school race. A few runners had dropped out entirely, and others came straggling along with rewards of twenty and thirty per cent for their work, but the majority of the participants passed the first two mile-stones, and are now on the home-stretch. No one knows what misfortunes may befall us before we cross our goal and receive our parchments. Until then, each one will do his utmost to make the class of '17 the finest class that East High has ever sent forth. ANNETTE DOLLER, '17.

C II HISTORY T was on September 8th, nineteen thirteen, that the class of '17 of East High School came into being. Then began that very important I period of our lives—the high school career. All was strange to us for some time, and as we wandered about, dazed by the multitude of affairs going on about us, we were reminded continually by the lordly upper classmen of our utter ignorance and insignificance. Gradually it became less strange, however, and, after being initiated into the mysteries of rhetoricals, and, having seen the Blue and Gold triumphant on several hard-fought football fields, we began to feel that Ave were really a part of the school. Then we took part in selling tickets for an entertainment course, given to secure funds for a new piano, and on several occasions through­ out the winter we were given rare treats in the form of the various numbers of this lecture course. On the last day of October we attended our first important social func­ tion at East High, the reception to the parents of first year pupils, or "the baby show," as it is generally called. For a long time we sat in the hard seats in the auditorium, while no less personages than the senior class president, and even Mr. Lothman himself, addressed us. You may be sure that we conducted ourselves with added dignity from that day forth. Soon came the end of the term, and most of us remained on the class roster, some few flunking and continuing to struggle with D I work. The hearts of the more fortunate ones leaped for joy when they realized that they were now upper classmen, and I fear that these displayed some arrogance toward the new arrivals for a while. From then on until the final examinations we applied ourselves to our studies with more or less persistence, and at last we safely passed the last of these, and became full-fledged sophomores. The summer vacation seemed all too short, and soon we were back at the grind again. Taking advantage of the privilege of athletic eligi­ bility as sophomores, several members of our class went out for football, and ably represented us on the team. Instructive features of this term were the interesting-talks by col­ lege presidents and the excellent rhetorical exercises, which we were fort­ unate enough to hear. Things of this nature should prove a consider­ able factor in our realization of the many advantages offered by East High, and we all look forward to others like them in the future. Now, when our sophomore year is nearly over, and with the prospect of becoming upper classmen in the true sense, with regret that we have not been able to do more than we have for the school, and with gratitude for the immeasurable aid and sympathy of our teachers and the resolve to merit these by increased effort, we confidently face the future. GEORGE L. SKEEL, '17.

HE whole of East High School is divided into four parts, of which the Seniors constitute one, the Juniors a second, the Sophomores T a third, and the fourth, those who are called in their own lan­ guage, Freshmen, but in our language—"Flats." When we C I's first entered this life, we were a very timid band of little people, but proud, nevertheless, that we had crossed the high school threshold. The first sight that met our wondering eyes, as we stepped through the doors that first morning, was a large white placard, upon which was inscribed, in heavy red lettering, "All New Pupils Go To The Auditorium." Goodness knows we tried hard enough to follow directions, but we just got all mixed up. Several times were we informed by self- important D IPs that the elevator was by far the most logical method of locomotion, but for some strange reason we decided that our legs would carry us more safely. Finally we reached that magnificent assembly room, which is known as the "Auditorium," decidedly awed, however, and with breath short. At last we were established, but how we managed to live through that first term I scarcely know. It was all one glorious (?) jumble of losing our way, running through the halls, being sent to the office, and above all it was "Flat" this, and "Flat" that, until we felt exactly in the condition the word indicated. But we did manage to survive somehow, and the "Baby Show" completely restored our equanimity, so that we became quite cool and undisturbed in manner. We were "used" to things. Need I quote that "familiarity breeds contempt" ? So in our C I year we are just raising our heads, shaking the water from our eyes, and turning to survey the landscape after our first plunge into the river of high school life, in which, if you would swim rather than sink, you must faithfully spend your three hours a day on homework. We have not yet been given the chance to show our school and class loyalty, but in succeeding years we intend to do our best to make the class of 1918 one of the best that ever graduated from East.

D II HISTORY N the library of Father Time there is a set of books entitled "High School," the four volumes of which are Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, I and Senior. They are very large volumes, each containing two parts, but they fill only a small portion of the bookcase in which they are placed. Last September Father Time began turning the pages of the first volume as he does every September, and, as he did, the many experiences and events written on those pages pertained to us. In January he started to turn the pages of the second part and oh, the experiences we have had since then! Now, it must be understood, that we were D I's last term, to appre­ ciate how glad we feel that we aren ow D IPs. A D I is a very young and inexperienced person, while a D II is quite grown up. We have profited by five months of experience, for now we understand when to go to our classes, what to do there, and have learned the names of most of the teachers. Of course, we have many things yet to learn, as most of us to find out when we get into Mr. Peck's Algebra class. He detects faults in us that have lain hidden for many years just waiting for him to root them up. The worst part of it is that he does not seem to realize the fact that we are grown up. But for some reason or other, we all like Mr. Peck just the same. In the auditorium we are greatly pleased to be given better seats than those under the balcony which are meant only for little D I's. In our studies we are quite up to the mark, but not over it as we were last term, for we have discovered that "virtue gets its own reward," usually a headache. We seek relief at the hockey and basketball games. We trust we're not so bad but that Father Time will see fit to turn over the leaves of the Sophomore volume next year. ELIZABETH S. CADWALLADER, '18.

klVIN&.THF vraa «^ 75 D I Iftnteg N the first of February, the members of the class of nineteen nine­ teen entered into a new life, under conditions somewhat different O from those we had been accustomed to, during the past year. We had reached the top rung of the grammar school ladder of knowledge, and had learned to enjoy the homage which our dizzy altitude exacted. When we approached East High School, we began to realize that we were not so overburdened with information as we had been led to believe. The events which quickly followed increased rather than diminished this budding idea. We discovered that upper classmen do not always adhere to the truth in giving directions to "Flats." We found that the auditorium is on the third floor and the lunch-room in the basement, instead of vice versa. We learned that rooms are designated not only by numbers, but also by letters. We also discovered that when the first bell sounds it is a warning to our teachers, and not to ourselves, that we must never begin to pack up our books until the passing bell rings. But running through the halls caused us the most trouble. Our older brothers and sisters advised us to resist this temptation unless we wished to advertise our "greenness." Our teachers warned us of the necessity of being punctual and spoke of tardiness as one of the blackest sins. What were we to do? We didn't want to be objects of ridicule, nor did we desire to incur the displeasure and wrath of the teachers. Even now this question has not been satisfactorily solved, but we hope when we have attained the highest rung of the high school ladder and again enjoy the honors and privileges of seniors, we will have discovered the happy medium, not only of our passage through the halls, but of all important matters included in East High's curriculum.

O these two factors is due the marked success of our 1914 team. The victorious season began early, on September the third, when, T under the leadership of Coach Boles and Mr. Eisenhauer, the boys went into camp about four and one-half miles west of Ashtabula, on the shore of the lake. This week of excellent training, which followed, laid the foundation of the splendid physical condition which every player showed the entire season. About three weeks after school started, the first game was played with Glenville. Straight football brought a victory by the score of 41 to 0. The next week East Tech was played on Shaw field. Many times our team had opportunities to score, but the immeasurable loss of "Darby"

Gram in the second quarter spoiled the offensive play, and a tie score resulted. Our next joust was with West, into which we entered with a shat­ tered team. Without Sindy and Quarterback Bodenhorn. the team met defeat, fighting hard, the score being 17 to 6. This setback served as a spur, and our team beat West Tech in the next game 7 to 0. Captain Ollie George scored the only touchdown in the second quarter, when he fell on a blocked punt. On the thirtieth of October, Findlay was defeated at Findlay, 10 to 0. A record-breaking crowd viewed the Central game. The great su­ periority of the East team was evident from the first play. In the first few minutes of the game the joint work of our line and backfield put the ball on Central's one-yard line, from where Bodenhorn carried it over. A few minutes later Central, pressed back upon its own goal line, was forced to kick, and Lehecka, blocking the punt, fell on the ball for the second tally. In the final period Captain George dropped the ball be­ tween the uprights with but little effort, and so made the final score 15 to 0. The excellent condition of our team was made evident by the fact that only twelve men participated in the contest. The punting of Sin- derman was the feature of the game. Shaw was played on U. S. field the following Saturday before an immense crowd. Shaw's attempts to gain were futile except for an oc­ casional end-around-end play, while Gross and the two Craigs made long and consistent gains around the ends and through the tackles. In the second quarter Shaw was back on her own goal line and dropped back to kick. But not even in such a crisis could the red and black line hold, for Charlie Craig, breaking through, tackled the punter, back of the line for a safety, thereby scoring the two points which won the game. Every football fan anxiously awaited the result of the "Yale-Har­ vard" game of Cleveland, the East-U. S. football game. The weather was slightly cold, and a light snow covered the ground. Nevertheless, a vast crowd filled the stands early. Captain George won the toss and chose to receive. Punting on the third down, U. S. obtained possession of the ball, and by short-end runs scored the first touchdown. In the second period the Craigs and Gross carried the ball to the one-half-yard

line, and Bodenhorn rushed it over on an off tackle play. Sindy kicked goal. No more scoring was done. Although the game ended in a tie, East derived great satisfaction from the fact that the ball was in U. S.'s territory during three-fourths of the entire game. The senate title, which our school has held for three years, was lost this year to Central. In order that our game with U. S. might be played, Lincoln very kindly canceled her date with us. East, therefore, played one less senate team than -Central, and, although defeated by East, Cen­ tral's percentage was slightly higher. East has attained that for which she has been striving six long years, the title of "Quad Champions." With this glory there comes a magnificent silver cup, better known as the Viall trophy. This will re­ main at East for one year, and will become the permanent possession of the school winning it three times.

THE FOOTBALL TRAINING TRIP

N view of the excellence of the 1914 football team, it seems in place to describe here the week of training which many of the boys made I use of better to equip themselves physically for the approaching season. Under the supervision of Coach Boles and Mr. Eisenhauer, twenty- eight robust fellows hied themselves to a Y. M. C. A. summer resort on the lake-shore near Ashtabula. They arrived on the scene of their camp near nightfall, just in time to enjoy their first supper out-of-doors. After all had appeased their ravenous appetites the Coach outlined the week's events. Each day's doings were very much like the following:

5:30 Reveille 11:00-11:30 Swimming 6:00 A mile jog 12:00 Dinner 7:00 Breakfast 1:00- 5:30 Recreation 7:30- 9:00 Recreation 5:30 Supper 9:00-11:00 Field Practice 7:00 Circle talk bv Coach 9:00 Taps

That short week was crammed full of fun. The hour and a half after breakfast was spent in various ways. Some would wander off down to the beach and idle away the time by building great wood fires or in trying their skill at seamanship. Others would play quoits with the Coach and Ollie George, who defeated all comers, and who held the un­ disputed title of quoit champions. In the afternoons some of the boys went to the Harbor to "take in" the town. To do this it was necessary to hike both ways, a distance of eight or ten miles, or else coax a ride part way from some "good-natured farmer. The other fellows who were left behind amused themselves with the favorite pastime of indoor base­ ball. Both Mr. Boles and Mr. Eisenhauer surprised even themselves at the rapidity with which they circled the bases. After a whole after­ noon was spent in this way, it needed but the merest hint from the cook to have the whole crowd assembled for supper. Oftentimes the only drawback to a camping trip is the grub. But not so on this occasion. The meals were first-class without exception. Every particular of the trip was very agreeable, and it will always be remem­ bered by every one along as one of the best times of his life. One incident in particular deserves attention. The evening before the departure for home, with the help of Mr. Duff, the head of the camp, a roaring fire was built on the beach. Around the blazing logs all gath­ ered, and a big marshmallow roast was enjoyed. After this each fellow talked for a few minutes. Last of all, much esteemed Coach Boles spoke to the fellows, and there began that unity in the team and friendship be­ tween himself and them that led each fellow to give his all to the game throughout the season.

Right Guard Ralph Sourbeck Henry Sindermann Left Guard Roy Sampliner F the supporters of East were enthusiastic over the showing of this year's football team, they certainly had no reason to be less proud I of the record of our basketball squad. It is no uncommon thing for East to win football honors, but it is quite unusual for her to do likewise in basketball. Not disheartened by the defeat administered by Glenville in the first game of the season, the team and Coach put forth such strenuous efforts that six senate games were won in succession, the last of which was a thrilling victory over Central, the Senate Champions, on Central's floor. In every game the boys displayed excellent form and team work, which was the result of hard and vigorous training. The game with Central can be cited as an example of the fight and determination that was characteristic of the basketball squad throughout the season. East High School feels that even the acquisition of the title of "Champions" would have added nothing to the honors of its basketball team. Coach Boles was the biggest factor in the season's success.

On Saturday, January 23rd, after only one practice, East played Central and was defeated 3—0. In the succeeding games there was more spirit and fight in the players, and the following week our boys held Shaw's well-organized team 4—1, being the first school to score against Shaw in two years. University was played to a 0—0 tie. Then misfortune came. The fall term was over, and some of the boys were ineligible. Knowing that they were handicapped, the players fought all the harder, holding Shaw 5—1. U. S. showed more spirit the next week, and the score was 7—0. Our boys went down before Shaw 1—0 in the next game, but it proved to be the best hockey game of the year. Then came our first victory in two years, Central being defeated by 4—1. U. S. defeated East 3—1, and Central bowed to East again in a 1—0 game, this game ending the season. Our boys played hard throughout the season, and even when they struggled against Shaw's expert team, they fought and kept on fighting to the last minute. As Edmund Vance Cook says: "It isn't the fact that you're licked that counts; It's how did you fight and why."

Pre­ liminary training began about the first of March, and a few weeks later privilege was secured to use the splendid gymnasium and swimming pool of the East End Y. M. C. A. During the colder weather practice was held there. Four meets were held during the course of the season, a dual meet with Glenville, the Princeton, Quadrangular, and Interscholastic meets. The first named was held on May 4th, Glenville winning seventy- eight points, and East fifty-nine. Lester Howells won the greatest num­ ber of individual points, securing ten of the fifty-nine. In the Princeton, Quadrangular, and Interscholastic meets the school made a commendable showing considering the lack of material. In the year 1915 the team will have Walter Gram as captain, and Merritt Tompkins as manager.

N February 22nd a meet in which all of the East End High Schools participated was held at the East End Y. M. C. A. The team gave O a good account of itself, winning twenty points, ranking second only to East Tech, which had a total of twenty-three. Captain Harold Pratt distinguished himself by winning first in the two hundred-yard race and in the plunge for distance. East won second in the varsity relay race, the team being composed of H. Pratt, E. Kelly, M. Rodgers, and R. Caulkins. Glen Bartshe attended to the managerial duties of the team.

T the close of the 1913 season, it was decided that the 1914 team should be made up of the four players ranking highest in a per­ A petual tournament, to be run off at the beginning of the 1914 sea­ son. Owing to the lack of courts, this tournament was late in starting, with the, result that the team was not definitely settled at the time the first match was played. This match, with University School, and the fol­ lowing one, with Lakewood, were lost, but by this time the make-up of the team was determined upon, and the remaining two matches, with West and Glenville, were won. The team, composed of Capt. Van Duzer, Ranney, Benton and Hunt, deserves much credit for the fine work it did under the handicap of insufficient practice. Although the entire 1914 team graduated, the outlook is very promising with Russ, Ingersoll, Frauenthal, Atwater and Ayers still in school, The scores for the 1914 season follow: East. 2 U. S 4 East. 1 Lakewood 5 East. 6 West 0 East. 5 Glenville 1

TENNIS TEAM

110 THE GIRLS' TENNIS CLUB GIRLS' tennis team has been rather an unheard-of activity at East, but, nevertheless, in the spring of 1914 a rather impromptu team A was produced because Glenville, who claimed the girls' champion­ ship team, challenged East on very short notice. A team was formed which defeated Glenville and Central, and tied West. The members of the team were: Myrtle Russ, Marguerite Esch, Estelle Corday, Harriet Johns and Ruth Sandrowitz. Last fall a tournament was held in which nineteen girls participated. Estelle Corday defeated Harriet Johns in the finals, thereby gaining the girls' championship title. Those who took part in the semi-finals and will probably be candidates for the team of 1915 are: Estelle Corday, Harriet Johns, Serena Maloney and Annette Doller. Those who took part in the tournament were: Beatrice Bloomfield, Annette Doller, Elizabeth Kagy, Bernice Hulburd, Genevieve McNulty, Portia Smith, Dorothy Smith, Irene Stevens, Cornelia Hummel, Ruth Neville, Serena Maloney, Mildred McCreary, Harriet Johns, Edith Rice, Doris Manchester, Gladys Zimmer, Nora Walsh, and Estelle Corday.

THE LINCOLN CLUB N the fall of 1912 a new club was started in East High School for the purpose of promoting debating and other forms of literary activity. I The members of the club were to be chosen from the Sophomore, Jun­ ior and Senior classes. So, the Lincoln Literary Society was founded in order that the younger students might learn and take advantage of what the older students had learned in debating and literary work. Owing to many objections, the club was not able to meet in the school, so they accepted the generous offer of a meeting place at the East End Y. M. C. A. All the members are East High boys, and although the Lincoln Literary Society has never been officially recognized by the school, it has lent as­ sistance, for it has supplied five of the six speakers in East High's two debates this year.

HIGH Y CLUB HE High Y Club was organized in the fall of 1913, with a member­ ship of about forty. It now numbers about one hundred and fifty T boys from East End high schools. East's representation in this club has been about double that of any other high school. The meetings are held at the East End Y. M. C. A. every Friday night at 5:30, when all assem­ ble for a big feast. After dinner some prominent man of the city usually addresses the club. The boys from each High School then divide into separate classes to discuss questions of vital importance. That this club is very popular among the fellows is evident from the long membership roll.

MAN'S success depends largely upon his happiness in the particular line which he has chosen as his life work. With this thought in mind, the fac­ ulty added a new and important fac­ tor to East High School education. For several years, ideas about vocational guidance have been in the air. Here and there, about the school, teachers have been suggesting that the time is ripe for pupils to give serious consider­ ation to what their place in the world is to be. Last year and the year before, occasionally a professional man was invited to spend an after­ noon at school to talk to those boys who were interested. The matter of college scholarships, as always, has had its relation to vocational guid­ ance, in that each boy competed for that scholarship which prepared him for his life work, rather than for one of greater money value. This year, more than ever, definite steps were taken. On January 4th, a half- hour was allowed, before the first recitation, for the sitting-room teacher, or any outside speaker invited by the teacher, to speak to the pupils on vocational guidance. Mr. Lothman spoke to rooms 9 and 13, Miss Bennett to room 12, and Mr. Boles to room 8. Mr. Prothero, head of the employment bureau of the Y. M. C. A., spoke to room 16. He said that nine out of every ten young men, who come to his office in search of em­ ployment, on being asked, "What kind of work do you prefer?" answer, "Anything." And that is the reason for their repeated applications for work—their lack of preference and preparation for some special branch of work. On February 12th, Mr. H. N. Clark, one of Cleveland's successful business men, addressed the school in the Auditorium, telling of his ex­ periences in the employment of men, and of the average man's short­ comings, in that he looks for a job and not for work. Our library has been co-operating with the main library in obtain­ ing books upon the subject of vocational guidance, which promise to be a help to pupils. The effect of this vocational guidance work has been noticeable, both upon the teachers and the pupils. For the teachers it has emphasized the human aspect of their work; while for the pupils it has vitalized their high school training. On the 18th of February, each pupil was asked to write answers to the following questions: "What do you intend to make your life work?" "Why?" and "What reason have you to believe that you are fitted by Na­ ture to do this work?" The object of these questions was not to make the pupils decide definitely their life work, but to induce them to think, look ahead and try to analyze their abilities, in order to find out what occupation they are really fitted for.

AST HIGH SCHOOL is very proud of those of her sons who win renown on athletic fields, but she is more proud of those who distin­ E guish themselves in intellectual fields, for, after all, the primary object of a high school education is the development of the intellect, where­ as the development of the body is a secondary object. Of the fourteen college scholarships offered last year to Cleveland high school graduates, nine were won by East. Three of these were for Case, two for Yale, two for Lake Erie College, one for Reserve, and one for Harvard. Much of the credit, of course, belongs to the boys who won the scholarships, for it was their willingness to give up some of the pleasures that they might have had, and to apply themselves to their work, that enabled them to be victorious. However, a great deal of the credit is also due to the teachers who gave up some of their afternoons to help these boys prepare for their examinations. But for that help the results would, undoubtedly, not have been so sweeping. In this way both the teachers and the pupils have, for years, been working together for the glory of old East.

O you know what college you expect to attend? Has your course in school been sufficient to prepare you to meet the requirements D of that college, or don't you know? Don't take just the easy sub­ jects in high school, and think that you're getting out of something. You are not. Perhaps you will be one of those, who, in their senior year, find that they would like to attend a certain college, but can not, because they have not taken all the required subjects. Pick your course to meet the requirements of your college, so that you will not have to pick your college to meet your course. Furthermore, do you really know why you are going to attend that certain college? Do you know what you intend to take up as your lifework, or are you going to that college because you heard some­ one say it was a nice place? These questions are questions in which each and every one of us ought to be interested, and time will not be wasted if it is spent in considering them. Just remember, an ounce of forethought is worth a pound of afterthought.

NTELLECTUAL stagnation does not necessarily accompany business stagnation—a fact that was thoroughly demonstrated at East High I during the year 1914-1915. While in that period severe business de­ pression prevailed in Cleveland as elsewhere, intellectual activity at East High, in the opinion of its Principal, was never more in evidence; never was the service of teachers, including the librarian and secretaries of the school, on a higher plane; never was the response of pupils more loyal and earnest. Few, except those engaged in the work, have an adequate idea of the multifarious duties involved in the work of organizing a school of a thousand to twelve hundred pupils, and of assigning each to his proper place among some two hundred class divisions in the brief space of" twenty-four hours. Yet this was done at the opening of school in September. The task was still heavier at the opening of the second semester in January, for it immediately followed the arduous duties at­ tending the closing of the first semester. The work was so deftly and quickly done that its real difficulties were not apparent to a superficial observer. Such a result could not be produced by the efforts of any one teacher, but only by the co-ordinated ability and effort of all. The same spirit prevailed through the year, and the Principal gladly uses this op­ portunity to thank and congratulate all members of the faculty for the zeal that characterized their work during the year 1914-1915. The enrollment of pupils each semester exceeded twelve hundred. Inevitably offenses were committed by some members of this small army, but the offenses were so comparatively few and so free from malice as to be practically negligible. It would be difficult to find a school in which the conduct of pupils in general is more praiseworthy. Scholarship was held to a high standard, and the loyalty of pupils to their school was highly gratifying. The high character of this loyalty was, perhaps, no­ where more manifest than at the athletic games. In the tension of sharply contested interscholastic games, partisan spirit may obscure the rules of courtesy. While the pupils enthusiastically supported their teams, it affords the Principal great pleasure that he does not recall an instance in which they failed in courtesy to rival teams, vanquished or victorious. Our teams also bore themselves like true sportsmen, and made a splendid showing in the number of games won. The united efforts of teachers and pupils, ever working in unison for a common purpose, have made East High School an inestimable power for good in the community; and every earnest worker of the school, how­ ever unimportant his part may seem, becomes a valuable contributor to a great cause. The opportunity of directing the activity of such an army of workers is truly a great privilege, and the Principal of the school takes this occasion to express his appreciation of this opportunity and his gratitude to all the members of the school for their excellent work and for their loyalty to their high ideals. To him their enthusiasm serves as a splendid example, a wonderful lesson: "Thanks, thanks to you, my worthy friends, For the lessons you have taught! Thus at the flaming forge of life Our fortunes must be wrought; Thus on the sounding anvil shaped Each burning deed and thought."

EAR KATHERINE, In your last letter, you offered to bet me a three-pound box "D of Allegrhetti's chocolates that I could not get out of this school by Christmas. I do hereby take you up and I vow that I will be out of here by the Holidays. Now I must go and hatch me some schemes." Such was the note which I, Prudence Wentworth, wrote my friend Katherine and which is largely responsible for the following tale. Perhaps I had better stop and describe myself, as I am to be the chief conspirator in this tale. I am about five feet three inches tall, rather thin at present, but hope to be willowy when I am eighteen. My hair is just now deciding whether it shall be dark or light. It long ago decided to be hopelessly straight. My eyes are grey, green, brown or yellow, according to the mood I am in. My nose is not at all classical, but then neither is it a pug, for which small mercy I am thankful. My mouth and chin are quite pretty. They truly are. I know, because I heard the Art teacher say so one day, when she thought I was studying. For the rest, I am fifteen years old and just at the awkward age. By that I mean the age when every piece of furniture thrusts itself in your way that you may fall over it and every rug curls up that you may the better stumble upon it. Also it is the age when your hands and feet are marvelously out of pro­ portion to the rest of your body. But I must continue my story. I did not like the school I was in, although I had been there a month. It was so good that no one short of an angel could exist there very long. 1 was not an angel. We dressed in uniform, and such uniforms! Black were they as the blackest night; shapeless were they, as the most shapeless of pillows; stiff as the stiff est pique. When I got into one, I felt exactly as if I were between two stiff, straight boards, and if it had not been for the bending and twisting I did in Gymnasium, I should have forgotten I had a waistline. Of course, no jewelry of any kind was allowed, and we were not permitted to wear colored hair ribbons. The night I wrote my letter, I summoned several kindred spirits to my room, and we spent a valuable study hour pondering troublesome schemes. Therefore, when I walked into the assembly room the next morning, five minutes late, there were only five out of the entire assembly who did not feel the first, faint symptoms of heart-failure. For I was dressed in a bright red dress, my hair, piled high on my head, was adorned with a heavy rope of corals, and I had put on all my own jewelry and some borrowed from my friends. I was indeed a conspicuous object. I was banished to my room immediately, where I remained until no less a personage than the principal, herself, came to lead me back to the path of righteousness. Alas! I was not easily led! I could be led far enough to see wherein I had erred, and to give up my cherished red dress, but I could not see my faults to the extent of telling the entire school about them. So she left me, and presently her assistant came in. Now, I liked Miss Richmond, but not even for her would my vision expand to the

145 SHORT STORIES

breadth the principal deemed proper. It ended with my returning to my class quite as if nothing had happened. I was quiet and angelic for several days. Then when I thought I had proved myself properly subdued, I ventured to ask permission to go to town. Miss Richmond looked at me suspiciously. She knew me better than the other teachers did. But Mary's lamb could not have looked more guileless, and at last she gave consent. So Saturday morning, under the care of Miss Green, A. B., M. A., Ph. D., and heaven alone knows what else, I started out. I bought a soft felt hat. I did not need the hat, but I did need the hat-box. Miss Green could not understand why the store woman put so small a hat into so large a box. The woman, by virtue of a note slipped into her hand, understood. Then we went to Maillard's for lunch. I had a terrible time slipping my note to the waiter, but at last I accomplished it. He read it and coughed so violently that Miss Green murmured sympathetically, "Poor fellow!" When he had brought our lunch, he picked up the bandbox, explaining that he would have it checked. Here he choked and hurried away. Going back to the school, the car was crowded, and in spite of my efforts, my box was tilted on end. When we got off, I felt curious glances cast at the box, but I did not dare look. Suddenly Miss Green exclaimed, "Prudence Wentworth, what has happened to that box?" I glanced at the offending article and giggled helplessly. My fears were realized, the articles were upset! "It must have been something in the car, Miss Green," I answered as naturally as I could. "I'll run along and see!" I fled the scene promptly. Once in my room, I opened my precious box and took out the contents. The only thing damaged was the hat. The cake, candy, sand­ wiches and other dainties were intact, including my friends, the oysters. That night, shortly after nine o'clock, five silent figures stole into my room. Everything was in readiness. The oysters were creamed to perfection, the hot chocolate was delicious. In our enjoyment we threw caution to the winds. Suddenly the sound of an unmistakable footfall fell upon our ears. We listened fearfully. Then with one accord we jumped up. I extinguished the light and dived into bed. My room-mate followed suit. The visitors, pushing the remains of the feast under the bed, sprawled in all directions. A couple followed the feast, one fled to the closet, and another ran out of sight behind a morris chair. All this I heard with painful clearness. So did the corridor teacher. With a bound she sprang into the room and switched on the light. Verily, the spirits were abroad that night! For the morris chair kept rocking, rock­ ing, the closet door kept opening, shutting, opening, shutting, the bed kept shaking, shaking, and in spite of myself I began to giggle. There stood Miss Grenfall in the middle of the room, her hair in curling pins, and all around me the furniture was moving, and suddenly the imp seized me, and, smothering my voice, I said, "The goblins '11 get you, if you don't watch out!" Miss Grenfall jumped and uttered a squeaky cry. But speedily her fright turned into anger, and, shaking with every word, she quoth, "I want all those hidden in this room to come out!" No answer. The chair ceased to rock. The bed ceased to shake. The door stood mo­ tionless. All was still. Suddenly an unmistakable snort came from the closet, and simultaneously two giggles sounded from under the bed and behind the chair. Then slowly the owners emerged, hands first, feet first, head first, just as they happened to be lying. Next morning we were summoned before the principal and judg­ ment passed. I, as chief offender, was placed within bounds for two weeks and deprived of dessert until further notice. As I never ate dessert anyway, my punishment was slight.

For a week after this episode, I confined my attention to the class room until another idea should present itself. Presently it came. There had been a spirited debate between the Juniors and Seniors, relating to the transmigration of the soul. The whole school seized upon the topic and argued it fiercely, back and forth. I asserted loudly and firmly that the theory was the absolute truth. Cecilia Baden or, as I called her, the "Perfect Model," raised her eyes to heaven and begged me to recall my words before it was too late. Verily, I believe she expected the angel Ga­ briel to smite me down. But he did not. So, two days later, an unad- dressed letter was given to Cecilia, the contents of which read, "Harm thou not any large, grey cats, for into one has the soul of thy grandfather passed." The Model was frightened and took the note to her room to pray over. The next day she asked me if I really believed that our souls pass into animals. I swore solemnly that I did, and that even now her grand­ father was probably a cat. At the end of a week she was ready for a second message from the spirit world. She got it, scrawled on her desk, "This week, expect me!" Then I had to work swiftly and hard. I scoured the neighborhood for a large, grey cat, and at last found my heart's desire. He was big, old, and grey, with enormous green eyes, altogether an excellent grandfather. That night, with pussy under my arm, I prowled along the corridor to Cecilia's room. Out West, I had learned the Banshee call, and now, after placing grandfather on the bed, I retired behind a chair and gave the shivery, creepy yell. Perhaps she was nervous. At any rate, she woke speedily and sat bolt upright. "Is that you, grandfather?" she chattered. Pussy answered not a word. She repeated the question twice, but grandfather was apparently a man of few words, and at last wailed out, "Yes, child!" The Model sprang out of bed and ran shrieking down the left wing of the building. I grabbed grandpa and sped down the right wing to my room. I let grandfather out of the window by means of the fire-escape, and then joined the crowd in the hall. "What's the matter?" I yawned. Then I heard Cecilia's voice, wailing, "But I did, Miss Richmond, I did see my grandfather, and he was a cat! Oh-h-h!" Just here she caught sight of me, although I had been keeping mod­ estly in the background. "Ask Prudence, Miss Richmond; she told me herself she thought my grandfather was a cat." Miss Richmond looked at me questioningly, then remarking, "See me tomorrow morning," she led the weeping, distressed Cecilia off to bed. I lay awake two solid hours and pondered mightily on "grandfather," Cecilia, and what Miss Richmond would probably say the following morn­ ing. Miss Richmond had plenty to say, and took a most unreasonable length of time in which to say it. I listened, occasionally. There was no need to give undivided attention, for I had heard most of her remarks before. Sorrowfully she told me that she must write to my mother. So I looked up hopefully. This sounded like the beginning of the end. I cried out, "Oh, Miss Richmond, are you really going to write?" 1 flatter myself that Juliet ne'er cried to Romeo in greater tones of anguish. "Yes, my dear, I must," she answered so gently that I felt guilty and almost sorry. Indeed I believe I should have repented, if I had not suddenly caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. Instantly mv heart hardened. Oh! how I hated that black, shapeless, stiff, hideous, horrible dress! How I hated the goody-goody girls with their mild ways and meek

— 147 — SHORT STORIES

voices! How I hated the motto hung in every room, "Do ye all things calmly, gently and without haste!" Well, things went on from bad to worse. The Model and her. set hated, distrusted, yet stood somewhat in awe of me. For, in spite of Miss Richmond's talking and arguing Cecilia remained firm in the con­ viction that her grandfather was a cat. My mother had been duly noti­ fied of my wayward action and had answered that she would remove me from school at the next act of disobedience. All the teachers watched me, and, hating to fail them, I gave them something to watch for. At last the climax came. It came hard. It was during the week of the horse show, and I wanted above all things to go to see it. But the principal said, "Nay, child," in these words, "My dear Prudence, I am surprised that you would venture to ask so great a favor after your behavior of the past month!" I was silent, but not squelched. Thus it happened that about three o'clock of the following afternoon, a dark-clad figure might have been seen to climb the wall that surrounded the school. A little later, and the fugitive was at the horse-show, having the time of her life. All this was accomplished safely. But Nemesis overtook me in the end. Just as I was returning in the same fashion I had departed, I heard the principal's voice directly below the wall. I stepped cautiously into the great beech tree that grew conveniently near by, and waited for her to pass. But, alas! she didn't pass. As I was in a most uncomfortable position, I attempted to change it, and suddenly, I never knew how, I slipped, fell, clutched wildly at the air, and landed heavily on the august personage beneath the tree. As soon as we had both sufficiently collected ourselves to make sure we had lost nothing worse than our tempers, she grabbed me by the arm and marched with determined steps to the school. Into her office we went, and then, barricading herself behind her chair, she let loose her pent-up wrath and outraged dignity in the single word, "Speak!" I spoke. When I was through she pressed a button near the desk, and, when in answer to her summons, Miss Richmond and several other teachers appeared, she levelled a finger at me, which somehow seemed yards long, and thundered forth, "Repeat!" I repeated. This time my voice was so meek that it was barely audi­ ble. Therefore, she suddenly boomed forth, "Louder!" I laughed. Yes, I did. I didn't mean to. Indeed, I didn't know I was going to. Nevertheless, I did it. "Leave—this—room!" The North Pole at that moment would have seemed warm compared to her voice. I left the room. The next morning my mother was notified of the episode, and she at once sent for me. So I packed. Oh! If I could only make you feel the inexpressible joy I felt when I locked my trunk. No more uniforms, no more mottoes, no more Cecilias! I was so good for a day that Miss Richmond thought I was repenting. I hastened to undeceive her. As I got onto the train I took a last glance at the group on the platform. There was the principal, stiff, unsmiling, unbending. There were the girls in those terrible suits, their faces even meeker than usual. There was Miss Richmond. I felt my eyes sting as I looked at her, for she had been very kind.

I had been at home a week when a three-pound box of Allegrhetti's chocolates came for me. I tasted several. Yes, they were genuine Alle­ grhetti's. Then I put on my wraps, and, with candy in hand, I started out. There are probably some people yet who believe that I was the rather tall, thin girl, dressed in blue, who had just escaped from the Insane Asylum, and whose escape made such a glorious story for the newspapers. At any rate, they saw a girl walking slowly along Broadway, placidly feeding every horse she saw with a chocolate cream. After all, why not? If the soul of Cecilia's grandfather passed into a grey cat, why should not the soul of Prudence Wentworth's grandfather pass into a horse? Anyhow, the horse brought me good luck, so why not feed the horses and be on the safe side? DOROTHY STANLEY, '15.

TO GREEK

FROM HER FAITHFUL STUDENT (?) For the long nights I lay awake And tossed for Greek's unworthy sake: For Homer's joy-dispelling hand That led me through a desolate land: For all Homeric notes I read: For all my wrath, by misery fed: For all I studied, cross and sore, In sad and happy days of yore:— Thou source of trouble, toil, and strife, The angel of my youthful life— From weary prod, now free and gay, Take, Greek, my last farewell, I pray!

And grant, Homer, that all who read May not, as I, be dull indeed, And every soul who lists thy rime At good old East, in later time, May hear it in as fine a voice As made my youthful days rejoice. JANET F. AGNEW, '15.

A TOAST Here's to the team that plays football, In a way that few can beat. Here's to the team that is envied by all, It's from Eighty-second Street. Here's to the team of the gold and blue, With a captain crafty and bold. Here's to the team that plays the game true, The team of the blue and gold. Here's to the team that does what it can From the time the game begins. Here's to the team that plays as one man, Here's to the team that wins. Here's to the team we love so well, The team that is husky and strong. Here's to the team for which many a yell Has been shouted loud and long. S. E. W., '16.

FOOTBALL AND ALICE iiT TELLO, Fordham! What's the joke? Where's Rancke? Why J_ J_ doesn't he come?" The members of the football team of Weston High School, with the exception of the Coach and Captain Rancke, who had not yet arrived, were assembled in a recitation room for a short conference before their practice. By the time Fordham, the manager, entered, the boys were growing impatient at the Coach's delay. It was to be the last prac­ tice before the biggest game of the season, and they were anxious to get into their suits and out on the field. "What's up, Fordham? You'd better get it out of your system," remarked North, the little quarterback. It was a well-known fact in the school that when Fordham wore that intelligent grin, he had something on his mind, it was equally well known that it would not stay there long. "We-ell," began Fordham in his tantalizing drawl, "I s'pose youall knew that Rancke had about made up his mind not to play?" "What?" gasped the startled team. "Yes," continued Fordham, enjoying himself immensely. "Old Lady Grahame was up to her old tricks again. Told Rancke he was below an' 'less he took a test today, he couldn't play in the game tomorrow. We-ell, I reckon y' all know what her tests are like, and Rancke said he wouldn't take it 'cos he couldn't do anything about it, either." "Aw, come off," shouted North. "You needn't tell me Rancke isn't going to play." "We-ell," went on Fordham, without deigning to notice the quarter­ back, "there was a little flat sittin' in Miss Grahame's room, and she heard everything they said. An' yesterday, she handed Rancke this marvelous production:

" 'A little neglect may breed mischief; for the want of the test, the mark was lost; for the want of the mark, the 0. K. was lost; for the want of the 0. K., the player was lost; for the want of the player, the game was lost; for the want of the game, the Champ, was lost; for the want of the Champ., the cup was lost; and all for the want of an Algebra test. Alice.' " "Hey, Fordham!" called some one, as soon as the shouts of laughter had somewhat subsided. "Wha' d' ye call that, anyway? Poetry?" "I'd like to have seen Rancke's face when he read it," chuckled some­ body else. "No-o-bod-y ho-ome," groaned the little quarterback. Fordham waited patiently until he could make himself heard. At last he drawled, "See here, fella's, no more sarcastic remarks in regard to our freshman friend. It's done the business. Rancke's taking his test now, and what's more, he studied for it two hours last night. Wha' d' ye know about that, fella's ? Rancke studied!" On the following Monday, the biggest rally ever held at Weston High School took place in the auditorium. The remotest corners of the building echoed and re-echoed with the cheering of the thousand throats strained to the utmost in the wild enthusiasm of their owners. Rancke's touchdown, his farewell gift to the school, would go down in history, and Rancke's name, representing the captain of the winning team, would go down on the beautiful cup, which stood on the platform in all its glory, beside the battered pigskin. The story which Fordham had told to the members of the football team on the previous Friday amid such merciless ridicule, had gotten around the school, and it was Rancke himself who proposed, "Nine for Alice." They were given with a will, while back in the rear of the audi­ torium, a little freshman blushed unseen and wondered if, after all, she had not helped a little in winning the game.

MY TORCH-BEARER'S PIN Oh, tiny disc of silver, which I wear— This pine, this sun and storm mean every day That I must bear the Torch along my way— Am I well worth these symbols, which you bear? To let my light, through weather, foul or fair, Shine forth, each action, every word I say, Must kindle flame in some sad heart today And light the light of Love on hearthstone bare. So may I, as I live from year to year, Hold high my torch, that every one may see My light, undimmed, is shining strong and clear. In after years may mem'ry bring to me One thought, to keep forever sweet and dear, "I've proved my worth, Torch-Bearer, true to be." HELEN H. STEVENS, '15.

THE TWILIGHT HOUR Now the day is slowly dying, And the shadows gently fall, As a pause in the day's occupations Brings a wealth of peace to all. If the day has not been wasted And we have done our best, Then this hour which God has given Is for all an hour of rest. Now the happy birds in chorus Sing their last, sweet song of day, As the sun sends down farewell With a parting golden ray. And as darker shadows gather And enfold the wood and hill, On the breeze of even carried Comes the call of the whippoorwill. And the chirping of many crickets, Hid from sight in grassy bower, Adds a plaintive note to the music Of this peaceful, twilight hour. Then as soon as shades of evening Cover all things far and near, In the heavenly mantle above us Lo! the silent stars appear. And as each little guardian twinkles, Sending forth his tiny light, A sweet sense of peace and safety Seems to crown this lovely night. So 'tis thus that God rewards us With this hour of rest and quiet For our daily tasks well done At the setting of the sun. CARLTON P. WOODWARD, '16.

SOPHOMORE PRESENTATIONS

N 1912 the members of the class of 1914 presented to East High a splendid token of their loyalty to the school. In so doing they estab­ I lished a precedent for sophomore presentations. In 1913 the suc­ ceeding sophomore class confirmed the custom by a gift of three Flor­ entine pictures, expressing the wish that the decorative and educational value of pictures should be considered by future classes in making pres­ entations. In view of this desire, and in recognition of a long-felt need, after judicious comparison of the merits of other possible gifts, the representa­ tives of the sophomore class in 1914 decided to present pictures. Assisted by the suggestions of Mr. Lothman and members of the faculty, it was decided that the class of 1916 should take the first step in decorating the auditorium, hitherto practically void of mural ornament, with representative works of Dutch masters of the seventeenth century, a school which contains some of the finest artists the world has known. Paintings by Rembrandt, Ruysdael, and Hobbema were selected, and the sophomore class worked with a will to make it possible for the chosen pictures to be presented to the school. Mr. Lothman was enthusiastic in the work, and was determined that the exercises on Sophomore Day should be of interest to all the school. The rhetorical period on Friday, May 15, was lengthened, and was de­ voted entirely to an artistic and patriotic program. The sophomore class marched into the auditorium and took its place in the section regularly occupied by the seniors. On the stage were hung the five pictures to be presented, and aside from these the most prominent decoration was the beautiful flag which the class of 1914 presented in its sophomore year. The program opened with the singing of "The Star-Spangled Ban­ ner" by the school, accompanied by the orchestra. Following this, Maude Acker, a representative of the Junior class, speaking on "The Institution of a Custom," gave a brief review of the two previous sophomore pres­ entations. Mr. S. Hart, who contributed to the sophomore exercises in 1912, again honored the school with a song and an exhibition of drumming. Mr. F. Allen Whiting, Director of the new Cleveland Museum of Art, spoke of "The Place of Art in High School Life." He illustrated the impression art makes upon the minds of school children by means of original letters written him by children who had visited the Art Insti­ tute in Indianapolis, of which he was director. The presentation of the pictures by sophomore speakers followed. William Kinstler opened the presentation with a sketch of Rembrandt's life and a description of "The Night Watch," one of his greatest portrait groups. Kathryn Fox presented Rembrandt's "The Syndics," another fine portrait group, and his "Portrait of Himself." Milburn Staples sketched the life of Ruysdael and described his beautiful landscape, "The Wind­ mill," and Irma Lauster closed the presentation with the life of Hob­ bema and the description of his splendid landscape, "The Avenue near Middelharnis." Following the response for the school, in which Mr. Lothman ex­ pressed his appreciation of the services of Mr. Whiting and Mr. Hart as well as of Mr. Guenther, in whose art galleries the pictures were pur­ chased and framed, the school sang "America," appropriately conclud­ ing the exercises of the day.

MR. LOTHMAN'S BANQUET SHORT STORIES

MR. LOTHMAN'S BANQUET HE fifth annual banquet given by Mr. Lothman to the gentlemen of the faculty and the varsity team occurred Thanksgiving eve at T the University Club. Of all the pleasant occasions with which the football season was crowded, to this event can be best applied the phrase —forsan et hsec olim meminisse invabit. A glance at the picture will show what a magnificent spread was prepared. The table at one end of the great dining-room was arranged in the shape of a large E. The decorations were beautiful. Before Mr. Lothman's place stood the newly- won Viall cup. At his right sat Mr. 0. K. Dom, and at his left Mr. E. M. Williams, both members of the Board of Education and the guests of honor of the evening. All enjoyed the splendid feast. Never did a king have such a din­ ner set before him. Mr. Lothman, the prince of after-dinner speakers, started the evening's merriment. He put all into good humor with his droll wit and funny stories. First he introduced Mr. Findley, Mr. Eisen­ hauer, Coach Boles and Mr. Schulte. The first three mentioned held their listeners spellbound with their philosophic reasoning. The last named recited a very thrilling original poem. But an evening spent in so deep thought as this would grow irksome to the youthful minds of football players, and Mr. Lothman had wisely foreseen such a possibility. To avoid this, he had secured the consent of Mr. Davis and Mr. Petersilge to render a musical number. Mr. Davis sang a solo entitled "Irish Names." He afterwards gave this before the school. As the final speakers Mr. Lothman called on Mr. Williams and Mr. Dorn. Dan Hoyt was then asked to conclude the program by leading the banqueters in cheering. After many rousing East yells were given the party gathered around the piano to sing some school songs. The merry company then broke up, all sorry that the enjoyable evening was ended. ARTHUR C.

THE CHARGE OF THE EAST HIGH TEAM Read at Mr. Lothman's banquet to the team, Wednesday evening, November 25th, 19H

"Half a team, half a team, Half a team only!" So all the newspapers said, "Over at East High." "Play!" was the coach's cry— Theirs not to reason why! Theirs not to kick and sigh! Theirs to fight hard, and try! Into the games they went, Went the East team. II Fullbacks, both big and strong, Halves, that could dodge and run, Quarters and tacklers, too, Ends, guards and centers Tried hard the forward pass, Plays too of every class; Into formations new, Into tricks tried and true Blue and Gold went. Ill Gripped they the ball so well; Gripped it e'en when they fell; Shocking the others there, Making ten yards, or so, while Spectators wondered. Now 'round the end they came, Or through the line so tame; Strong was the East High game Making the foes to feel Beaten and plundered. Then they came back and all The crowd wondered.

IV Glenville with forty-one— East Tech a tie had won— West—we'll not mention— West Tech had blundered— Findley 'way out of town— Central, that proud had grown— Shaw High, that hoped to win— Last, but not least, you know, Up came the greatest foe, And though the score was tied, Victory was ours.

V Honor the Blue and Gold! Not a large score they rolled, But a great game they played, And a great team they made, And a great cup won. Newspaper dope they fooled While under Boles they schooled. Sindy, both Craigs, and George, Body, Bennett and Mahon; Eaton, Lehecka, Gross, Snajdr, Strong, Cook like the rest All of them played their best; That's why they won. H. SCHULTE.

ICE CE is the only rival of human nature at its worst. In summer, when you want Ice, you can't get it, and in winter, when you hate it, it I seems to delight in bobbing up to meet you, at the most unexpected places. You would naturally think that, since Ice is so anxious to meet you, that it would be warm and congenial, but you find, after it meets you, that it is cold and hard. In summer we feed on it, in winter we fall on it. That's just like Ice. Still I would not have you believe that Ice is without its virtues. It is especially appropriate in this fair democracy of ours. For, really, Ice is the only thing in the world that can bring the rich man and the poor man to the same level. If you don't believe me, just come and take a stroll along the street, and I will prove it to you. Once upon the street, you must watch your steps, or you will cease to step. A grocery boy, who, but a minute ago, was joyfully whistling, now lies in the midst of the wreckage that is strewed about him, and the lively dog that frisked about him has also wrecked his bark upon the sea of ice. Nay, even the horse's neigh is stilled, for a few blocks farther on, faithful Dobbin enjoys an unlooked-for siesta upon a blanket in the middle of the street. Meanwhile the driver utters hoarse cries at the horse, which the poor horse seems unable to understand. A small boy comes rushing along on his sled, intercepting with his cord a man perpendicular to the sidewalk, and causing him to describe an arc in the air, terminated by the plane of the pavement. Next a man skating on the pond loses his balance, but tries to check himself. 'Tis for naught, for since he has lost his balance, the check is no good. He withdraws from the crowd and deposits himself on the bank, while all the spectators look on with interest. The poor fellow probably feels bad now. but an overdrawn account will most likely spring from his lips next sum­ mer about his fall in the winter. "Tell me not in mournful numbers life is but an empty dream," but isn't it funny that the gods have a regard for the lowly sparrow's fall, and yet, if mere man falls upon the ice, they join in the laugh?

EVERY WALL-FLOWER HAS ITS DAY

6 4 T'S got to be stopped, girls; that's all there is to it!" The speaker was little Marjorie Gordon, who was perched I on the broad table in the schooi club room, addressing a small group of girls beneath her. "What's got to be stopped, Marj.?" asked Helen Winters, who had just entered the room. "The spirit in this school!" replied the small reformer, seriously. "It's really a disgrace. We are all out to have as much fun as possible, and without a thought to others. Think of our Senior dance, on Friday. I'll bet every one of you girls has her program filled already. And think of the girls you're cutting out—think of the wall-flowers that will be the result of your having your cards made out now. There won't be any partners for them." "Why, Marj.!" exclaimed one. "How can we help it if a fellow comes up and asks us for a dance? We can't refuse to let him have it, can we? Besides, they do it in all the schools." "And, Marj.," continued another, "what could you do about it, any­ way? The boys don't want to dance with freaks." Marjorie was silent for a moment, but when she spoke, it was with a sincerity that made the girls feel rather sheepish. "Girls, I'm going to do away with wall-flower-ism. I haven't given any of my dances away yet, so I can do it. I wish all you girls who have unengaged dances to help me. Will you, girls?" She was loved by her girl friends, and that and the fact that she was so pretty and so earnest made those girls willingly promise to help her. The girls with full programs left the room, and Marjorie ex­ plained her plan to the others. The next day, as she was going down the hall, a masculine figure accosted her. "Say, Marj., save a dance for me?" "Why—ah—" she hesitated. "I'd like to, Billy, if you'll do some­ thing for me. You know that shy little Marion Bates? Well, here is her program. If you'll sign up for a dance with her, I'll give you a dance. Will you?" If she had not been so popular, it might not have worked; but a dance with Marjorie Gordon was an honor as well as a few moments stolen from heaven; and gladly Billy signed Marion's card. With a sense of victory she hurried down the hall, and almost into the arms of a tall youth who intercepted her. "Not so fast!" cried Tom Hunter, the most popular boy in the senior class. "I would have a word with thee. How about the first One-Step on Friday night?" With a smile, Marjorie presented Marion's card. "You sign here, Tom, and the first One-Step on Friday is yours." He looked at her in a puzzled way, but when he saw she meant it, he put his name beside Marion's, for a Hesitation. At lunch hour, Marjorie and her colleagues met. "How are you getting along?" she asked them. "Fine!" exclaimed Ruth Henderson. "I took that homely Smith girl's card, and look! she's got all but three taken!" "That's nothing," scoffed Lilian Bently. "I took that Redding girl's —you know—the one that can only say 'yes' and 'no.' And behold— every one is taken!" Each helper reported with equally good success, and the Senior dance augured to be an epoch in the history of North High School. — 158 — SHORT STORIES

The Senior dance was drawing to a close. The orchestra had com­ menced to play the "Home Waltz," and the chaperons were discussing the evening from the shelter of a "cozy corner." "I don't know when I've seen a more successful dance!" said a learned teacher of mathematics. "Goodness gracious!" cried the wife of an illustrious instructor in English. "Haven't you any wall-flowers at your school? Every one is dancing, and has been." "I noticed that, too," said the principal. "It never happened be­ fore. There are usually a few who have to sit and look on while the oth­ ers dance. I sincerely hope we've eliminated that." The orchestra stopped, and a roar of applause rose from the danc­ ers. Smiling, the musicians repeated the song once, twice, and thrice, until the principal motioned to them to stop. The whole crowd of merry young people swooped down the hall toward the dressing rooms. One of the last to leave the room was shy little Marion Bates. She was with the most sought-after Tom Hunter, and a boy near by was calling to her. "I'll come for you at eight o'clock tomorrow, then, Marion," he called. Behind her came Matilda Redding, the girl who could only say "yes " and "no." She was with another popular boy, and was saying as she passed the chaperons: "Why, Bob! I never thought it of you. Just wait till I see you at school on Monday. Oh, maybe I won't tease the life out of you!" In the dressing room, Helen Winters came up to Marjorie. "Marj. Gordon, you dear!" she cried. "See what you've done! George Russell has invited Marion Bates to his club dance tomorrow night, and that Redding girl can't stop talking! You're a wonder!" Marjorie clasped her hand, but said nothing. "I wonder if I ought to tell them," she thought. "I wonder how they'd feel if I told them I was a wall-flower once, and would be yet, if some girls hadn't done for me what I've done for these girls tonight. All girls are alike—they all like to be popular, and if they have popularity thrust upon them, they've got to live up to it. I'll wager that Marion and the Redding girl will be popular the rest of their lives—on account of tonight." ELEANOR M. CLARAGE, '16.

When Julia he asked to the Senior to go, The fair one replied to him, "No, Philip, No." At her meaning he ventured a pretty good guess, For from grammar he learned No and No stood for Yes.

NOBLESSE OBLIGE AROL WADE was probably the loneliest girl in Woodward High School. Her parents, who had always lived in the country, had C worked very hard and made many sacrifices in order that Carol's ambition, to go to this famous high school, might be realized. When it was certain that she was to go to the city to school, Carol felt that she was the happiest girl in the world. She pictured to herself the lovely friends and wonderful times she would have in her new surroundings. But, somehow, things did not turn out as Carol expected. Being naturally shy and reserved, she did not make friends readily. She was at a loss to know what to say to the laughing, chattering girls who were her schoolmates. She stayed with a cousin who had several small chil­ dren, and she felt that she ought to help as much as possible with the babies. She found plenty of time, however, for studying and ranked high in every class. All of her spare moments were spent in the Public Li­ brary, which was near her cousin's home. In her vacations, which were spent with her parents, she never told them of her loneliness, but men­ tioned all the bright and happy events, sadly few, which had happened to her at school. She had reached her Junior year, and seemed no nearer the realization of her dreams of happiness and pleasure than at first. One bleak day in November a woman came to visit the school. She told the pupils that an eccentric old man in the city, who was a collector of historical relics, had offered to give his entire collection to the school that could furnish the best essay on the "Pioneer Settlers of Our State." Any boy or girl might compete, and the winner was to be announced the first day of February. Carol felt her heart leap, for the subject was a very familiar one to her. She had often heard her grandparents, who were among the first settlers, tell their experiences in those early days. Then came the thought, "No, I will not write an essay. This school has never done any­ thing for me, and I do not care who gets the collection. I will not help."

That afternoon, at the library, Carol read of knights, who, in ages gone by, had followed a motto even if they died in following it. Suddenly she thought, "I wish I could be a knight and do wonderful, brave deeds, but girls can't do anything. There's the essay, though; I suppose I could write that, and I believe I will." As she wrote, she became more and more interested, and within the next week the essay was completed. Carol often overheard groups of the boys and girls talking of the contest and of the prize, but spoke to no one of what she had done, for she felt that some older and more clever student would be the one to win the honor. Carol spent Christmas with her parents, and often thought of the contest, but decided that she would say nothing to them about it until she knew who was the winner. At last the eventful day came, and the successful person was an­ nounced, Carol Wade of Woodward High School. Carol was so astonished that she could hardly believe that she had heard aright. She received congratulations with a dazed feeling. She certainly was not the same lonely, little girl who had come to school that morning. The girls were so delighted with her that a number of them walked several blocks out of their way to accompany the prize-winner home. She was informed of a spread to be held in a few days, in her honor. That night, in reviewing the events of the day, Carol thought, "This honor will bring me the popularity for which I have so long wished. I did not think of that; and oh! how glad I am that I did not." MARY PAGE, '18.

ON THE RIVER HOMOSASSA I was fishing on the river. When a hawk dropped like a flash, And I heard him hit the water, With a loud, resounding splash. In a moment he'd arisen, With a splendid fish on high, And his cruel voice was lifted In a shrill, triumphant cry. But his call was quickly silenced; Shrill and piercing from nearby, Came a dreadful shriek of challenge, 'Twas an eagle's battle-cry. Filled with fright, the great hawk, turning, Found an eagle blocked his way, And the eagle's mate was flying From the rear to join the fray. Then he fled in wild confusion, Close behind, the eagles raced, In mid-air, they swept upon him, And he dropped the fish, in haste. With great skill, the eagle darted Down upon the falling prey, Seized it ere it touched the water, And, in triumph, flew away. J. ALBERT LOWENSTEIN, '16.

THE WRITING OF A THEME

The Writing of a theme it is A gruesome, awful thing. And old Procrastination, his Companion can but sing, Oh, put it off, oh, put it off! This pair make such an awful sight, They fairly make you creep, Now they've been haunting me at night And keeping me from sleep. Why did I put it off so long? The Theme himself is tall and thin, His friend is very short, With eyes that shine like polished tin, He's often heard to snort, "Oh, put it off, oh, put it off!" They're followed by a mighty band, In shape and color weird, Their power known thro' all the land, By all the people feared Who put it off and put it off! Last night I had a horrid dream, Those creatures came to me Each shrouded in a cloud of steam And said, "We all can see You're one of those who put it off!" Each pointed an accusing hand, And frowning gathered close And closer till the whole big band Seemed almost on my nose, All crying, "Shame, you put it off!" I woke then with an awful shriek That drove them all away. I vowed, as soon as I could speak, That never from that day Would I be one who puts it off. DOROTHY A. SMITH, '16.

Perhaps you say you've heard all this, But, friend, thar's precious few Who'll read a lot of talk like this An' think it means them, too. STEWART H. ROGERS, '15.

TESTS OME people are protests, others are contests, but I am neutral; 1 don't care who abolishes the tests. Some teachers attest a test is S good for the brain, if any, and if there isn't any, it doesn't matter, and since matter is indestructible according to the old 'fessors, pro and con, there is no harm done. Others detest tests and say an examination causes too much examination. Yet neither of them is entirely right, about half of them is left. But, as I said, I always take a neutral stand on tests, which means that I stand midway between 100 and 0. I wilJ endeavor to give the reader an unbiased view of a test. A test is a game of fortune in which fate deals the cards, and, worse luck, the cards are marked, although the marks on some cards are hard to see. Some students meet Dame Fortune, others meet her daughter Misfortune, but let us play the game, and you must be game to play this game. First you must discard your clubs and take up a spade and dig. You make up your mind to steal a march on the teachers, and show them that you can pass a test, come what may in June. So in an august manner you pack your books and go home, only to find a house full of company. In desperation you seek your room and try to concentrate your mind, but various noises disturb your train of thought. It may be a huckster, who is trying to sell fruit, or an Italian is playing quaint airs on a machine that could be put to better use as a chicken coop, and he seems to have about a million airs, too. Meanwhile the day goes, and night comes on apace. An intermission of fifteen minutes is allowed for supper, and after the meal you return to the grind. You cram till a late hour and drop off to sleep, while some graphophone that has forgotten its age, screeches out the tuneful melody, "This Is the End of a Perfect Day." You rise next morning, or rather you drag yourself out, and perceive that Nature is trying to cheer you up by giving you a dark morning. But, take courage, for black is the sign of mourning, anyway. At school your spirit revives, for each one is saying that he didn't study at all, in such a cheerful way that you grow ashamed of your labors. Then the test,—the dreaded test. You look at it twice to see if you are awake. It is so easy you are afraid you will get something wrong. In about two hours the game is over, you hand in your paper, spread out your hand, and say, "I pass." JOSEPH HERBERT, '15.

This verse, to you, I fear Mere nonsense must appear; But yet, it is the best With which my mind is blest. MARY HART, '17.

A SUMMER IN TIMAGAMI

AMP TIMAGAMI, or, as it is more generally known, "Cochrane's Camp," is an old established camp, charmingly situated in the south C arm of Timagami Lake, about six miles from Bear Island. The camp has five permanent buildings, an- assembly hall, dining-room, a kitchen in a separate building back of the hall, and a boat house, the top floor of which serves as the comfortable quarters of Mr. and Mrs. Cochrane and daughters. We also have a log cabin, ice-house, store­ house, and servants' quarters; and most important, a "tuck shop," or in plain United States, a variety store, to satisfy the desire for fishing tackle, axes, paddles, etc., that are necessary implements for camp life; and more significant, the craving for sweet stuffs. Life at camp is both interesting and varied. The first two weeks, starting July 7th, when the season opens, are devoted to the fixing up of the camp, such as rebuilding docks, that the ice has carried away, and the clearing out of wind-falls. If you don't know what a wind-fall is, please accept my crude definition. A wind-fall is a tree that the wind has blown down. Such jobs as these call for the use of axes, double saws, and the like, which prepare the fellows' muscles for the portages they will encounter on their first trip soon to come, and the wise fellow will take every advantage of such preparation. From the above don't get the idea that all we do is to labor. Not on your life. If it were, "Cochrane's Camp" would be no place for me. It is, on the contrary, much the other way. The first "skilley" is rung at seven o'clock, when we roll out of our blankets, make life miserable for anyone who does not seem inclined to arise, and then make our exit from our tented abodes down to the lake for our morning dip. The water at the beginning of the season may be a trifle cooler than Lake Erie, but what care we, it makes us feel good and fresh and saves taking time to wash. Breakfast is next on the pro­ gram. A very common but amusing sight at any meal is to see all the sixteen fellows at one table trying to catch the eye of the waitress, and when she comes over toward the table, every fellow, as of one accord, lifts his plate and extends it in her direction with the familiar saying on his lips, "Can I have some more, please, Dolly?" After breakfast every fel­ low puts his blankets out to air, and those that are so inclined, drop a line home. About ten o'clock the whole camp gathers on the ball diamond back of the kitchen and chooses up sides. The little fellows are evenly distributed on the various teams, so all play who care to. The others go out for a paddle, a sail, play duck on a rock, or perhaps watch the ball game. About eleven everyone dons a bathing suit and receives expert swimming and diving instruction from Mr. Cochrane, who is the Instruc- tor-in-Chief of the Royal Life Saving Society, and can do anything possi­ ble in the water. By following his instructions you will find that in time you will be able to do a great many "stunts," too. Dressing and long­ ing for the "skilley" to ring for dinner, are the most natural things to do next: that is why we are very seldom late for our meals. A fishing trip, followed with supper on an island, is a very common way of passing an afternoon. Fishing on the way home after supper, when the finny tribe most relish copper "wobblers," and other means leading to their destruction, causes us to have pleasant dreams of fish for breakfast. In the evening, whenever the weather permits, a large camp fire is built in the hollow, otherwise the fire-place in the dining hall is used. All join in singing, or listen to records played on a phonograph, which is a part of the camp equipment. Once a week the camp paper, which is a production of the campers themselves, is read and is a source of great entertainment to everyone. All lights are out at ten, and with the exception of an occa­ sional snore, laughing spell, howl, or the ringing of an alarm clock, set to disturb some sound sleeper, all is quiet until a new day begins.

In this manner the first few weeks pass, varied with an occasional trip for blue berries and raspberries for pies, or an excursion to High Rock, which is about three miles distant from camp. From this high cliff one can look for miles up and down the lake or over the tops of the dense woods and see inland lakes scattered here and there, appearing like drops of mercury against the black background of the woods. Later in the year instruction is given in life saving, the value of which can not be justly estimated by a boy living near a body of water. It also makes him feel perfectly confident when on the water, and able to render a service of inestimable value to another whenever the occasion requires. Two Cleveland boys now possess bronze medals for having passed certain prescribed tests in this drill. Besides the life in camp a fellow derives other benefits from a sum­ mer in the Canadian wilds. Namely, those acquired on side trips, where a fellow learns to act as camp cook, how to "tump" a heavy load, and the best way to portage a canoe. If a fellow is desirous of getting some good solid flesh on his bones for football, let him take about four of our five-day trips. Perhaps the most pleasant, for the amount of work it re­ quired, was the trip to Cobalt, which we took to see the big silver mines which are located there. Out on these excursions a boy has many excit­ ing experiences, one of which I will relate here. On the first night out from camp, I was making away with a plate of rice and raisins and gazing out over the lake, when a little disturbance on the surface of the water, about one hundred feet from shore, attracted my attention. Being of a rather inquisitive nature, my first move was to find a stone about as big as my fist. I threw it and missed the spot by about three feet. I thought at first that it was a wounded loon coming toward the shore. "Here's where I get closely acquainted with a loon," I said to myself. So without consulting any one of the noisy eaters around me, I pushed off a canoe, and, standing up, that I might see the better through the dusk, I quietly paddled up alongside of the object that had attracted my attention. But it was no loon. It was the tail of a great big pike wig­ gling slowly from side to side, making disturbances in the water. Fol­ lowing the direction of the tail, I saw about two and one-half feet in front of it, the head of the fish, and my eyes almost dropped out with surprise and delight when I saw that the big fish had another in its mouth. All this I got in two glances. Steadying the canoe, I raised my paddle over my head and brought it down axe-wise just back of the head of the big fish. Now, when on trips, I used a long paddle made of hard wood with a long wide blade weighing a ton. At least, it felt that way after an all- day strain of forty miles. So, with all the force I could get behind it, without upsetting the canoe, that paddle came down on that fish's "dome" with considerable speed, and it did the deed in good fashion. Mr. Fish came shooting out of the water on the other side of the canoe. Then I repeated the before-mentioned performance to make sure that he would not feel inclined to jump out of the boat when I once got him in. Well, I got him in all right amidst a chorus of shouts and exclamations from the fellows on the island. I also picked up the pickerel, which was still alive, and likewise brought him ashore. That evening by the fire-light I wrote in my diary: "July 28th—Came eighteen miles today against strong head wind. Got a ten-pound pike and a two-pound pickerel without hook or line by a couple of heavy blows with my paddle." My luck was much commented upon. To use George Crego's words "We fish all evening and don't get a strike, but the old 'String Bean/ here, can go out in a canoe, stand up and slap the water a couple of time's and haul out two fish, one a ten-pounder. Nope, I resign after that."

THE PRISONER

HAT could she have done in her young life to merit the terrible punishment of a prison cell, the bars of which would not give way W to her frantic efforts to escape? She was truly beautiful and had, in olden days, been accustomed to hold her head very high, but now await­ ing the. fatal blow of the executioner, she tried her best to hide her face. The idle crowd stopped and gazed pityingly at her. It was just a tew days before a great celebration, in which most of her friends would take part. By that day she would be dead, she thought, as she watched the never-ceasing flow of people in front of her prison door. Now a man came and gruffly gave her her dinner, but it was taken away untouched. She had no appetite for food now. Her mind wan­ dered back to the last summer; she had been happy then, living in the country with all her friends, able to go and come at her will. What a contrast between the wide, open country where she could wander at her leisure, and the small cell which was now her only home! As it was growing dark, pedestrians took little notice of her now, but a little girl saw her, and, leaving her mother's side, came close to the iron bars, and gave her several nuts. This, however, only made the captive's heart heavier, for she remembered that there had been a little girl on the farm, who had always loved to play with her, and the thought that she would see her no more, brought tears to the poor prisoner's eyes. She slept little that night, knowing that on the morrow she would be executed. The morning finally came, but the weary eyes of the pris­ oner did not notice it. Her mind was taken up with other things far more important. She had until about noon to live, but, oh! how much better it would have been had they killed her right away, instead of keeping her in agony three whole days. She spent the remainder of the morning sitting in a dark corner of her cell, paying no attention to anything that went on about her. At last, however, she was thoroughly aroused from her lethargy, when she saw a man coming toward her with an ax, and heard him exclaim, "Well, I had better hurry up and kill this lady; it's the best one we've had for years." So saying, he raised the ax, and, letting it fall with a terrible blow, ended the miserable life of the Thanksgiving Turkey. VIRGINIA MULLINS, '17.

A WET APRIL MORNING

T was certainly a gloomy day. I was sitting at the kitchen window, gazing out between the two geranium pots on the sill, at the dripping I water on the pane, and the drenched barnyard beyond. Not only had it rained all morning, but had, for several days past, continually poured or drizzled alternately. The whole yard was soggy,and, save where the fresh spring grass had begun to grow, wet and muddy. On the left of the window was a slight hollow in the ground, where the water was standing in a slimy puddle, and where, regardless of the rain, the ducks and drake vied with each other in splashing and paddling in its muddy depths, with the water streaming from their sloping backs as they waddled away after the swim. Across the yard from the damp kitchen steps, where he had evidently been reclining before, slowly crept the sheep dog, his tail down, and his great, mournful eyes seeking a place of refuge. Suddenly spying his friend, the tabby, taking her nap on the hay inside the barn, he betook himself thither and disappeared within. Now and then across the space in front of the barn door, which I could see from my post at the window, dawdled a chicken, clucking dis­ mally, and, perhaps, by way of comfort, eating the few kernels of corn on the barn floor, not daring to face the wet as bravely as did her kindred, the ducks. Thy sky became darker. Dense clouds gathered and floated together into one impenetrable mass. As if from the very clouds themselves, a lit­ tle damp, gray sparrow came fluttering down, and perched on a branch of a tree; his usually fluffy feathers smoothed tight to his little body, and his diminutive chirp almost lost in the patter of the raindrops. Suddenly, from the drive at the right, appeared two big brown horses, hitched to a wagon, the wheels of which were sunk deep in the mire. Their legs were splashed with mud, and their sleek sides very damp. The farmer lad, driving the wagon, was shouting at the team, and was bringing them to a halt just inside the door of the barn, when the rain came down in torrents. Whistling with surprise, the boy turned up his collar, pulled down his hat and ran for the house, which he entered a minute later, the water oozing from his boots, and his coat wet through. I turned from the window. Without was the downpour of rain, yet within, the fire, built to ward off the dampness, burned cheerfully, and I left the gloomy scene without for the brighter one offered by the warm room and blazing fire.

MY DOG I have a funny looking little thing With eyes and ears that serve him very well. His feet have trampled over every dell, Until I'm sure his tiny paws must sting. His name we think appropriate; it's Bing, For round and round the house he'll run and yell. You can't appreciate this till you dwell In our small house and hear the rioting. When mealtime comes, around the hour of noon, He's always on the job an hour or so too soon. He must have smelt the food or got a hunch That now the time had come for his small lunch. And quietly he sits upon a chair, To tease and beg until he gets his share. GLADYS FAIR, '16. — 169 — SHORT STORIES

TO MY GRANDCHILD When first I started out in quest Of knowledge, There was one thing to break my rest, Which always did, till on I'd pressed Through college. Its name? The very clock can click A-rith-me-tic. It hovered ever in my view, This nightmare. Till, as I'd other things to do, My leisure moments, always few, Were quite rare. When to the high school I progressed, It waited In algebraic garments dressed, It laughed because I was distressed,— Elated. And when 'twas learned, what did I do With it? I helped my children to go through, And they have done the same for you, A bit. At length that I have gained release, I'll spend my last few days in peace. D. F. C, '17.

MY CAT My cat is like a soft, soft ball, And very young and gay; He loves to hide out in the hall, And make me come and play. He is so small and gray and round, He surely makes one laugh; One day I weighed him and I found A whole pound and a half. His eyes are like two coals of fire, When in the dark they shine, His paws are like a rubber tire; His fur so soft and fine. His fav'rite spot at home is bed, For he's a sleepy cat. He lies so still, you'd think him dead; A good cat for all that. HELEN HALLOCK, '16.

MILLER'S ERROR

A friend of ours named Miller once Went up to Chemistree— Sylvester got up to recite, One grave mistake made he. This grave, grave thing that Miller said, Was what he would have done To make a stuff called sulphur Of C S2 for fun (?). He would have "net" this sulphide stuff, Been blown quite out of sight, Had not our friend Miss Bennett Explained what happen might. This to Sylvester now we say: "With C S2 so near, Don't have a lot of heat around, For you might disappear." HAROLD G. PRATT, '15.

FOR THE PRESS T was my second month on a great London daily. So far I had not set the Thames on fire. I was employed as a feature writer to fur­ I nish those vivid and startling stories that burst upon our sleepy vision Sunday mornings when we open the magazine section of the paper. I had been the author of a dozen articles, more or less, but the one I considered my masterpiece started out in bold red letters. "Did the Ancient Egyptians Ride in Automobiles?" "Hieroglyphics Found on Tombstones," etc. To get back to my story. It was on a Wednesday that the Sunday editor said to me, "Boy, here's your chance to show up. We've got some information about a queer old duck that lives out Cornwall way—rumor, you understand, just rumor.—but I think with a little im­ agination to help out, a pretty good story can be made. The public won't stand for that canned stuff any more, and it knows all about the frivolities of the 'reigning beauties of Paris,' so we've got to bury the 'ancient Egyptian' and the rest and find something new. I want you to go home, pack up a few things, and take the first train for Cornwall. Of course I could have you write the whole thing right here, but I'm afraid you could see the machinery work. The layout will be about £3, railroad fare, hotel bill and all. So see if you can't absorb £3 worth of atmosphere, and then let it out through your pen. You'll get there to­ night and have to start home Saturday morning. That leaves all day Thursday and Friday for the local color to soak in." I was greatly elated over being intrusted with the first step in the change of policy of so great an institution as this London daily. The falling rain somewhat dampened my ardor. When I got outside I stopped forlornly in the doorway. Should I hail a cab? Then ensued a battle, a battle royal, in my mind, which ended in a total rout of the allies, econ­ omy and reason by the dual alliance, elation and inclination. I thor­ oughly enjoyed the novelty of viewing the scurrying pedestrians from a cab window as we hurried down Fleet Street and then the Strand.

When I left my lodgings my landlady looked at me suspiciously for two reasons, first I had driven up in a cab, and, second, I was going away with a satchel, and I owed her two weeks' rent. When I arrived at my destination, I was very much surprised. I had not known that there was such a desolate spot in merry England. I put up at the sign of the White Horse, and then set about finding this man over whom I was to throw a glamour to satisfy the craving for the romantic in thousands of prosaic Londoners. I inquired of several peas­ ants—typical British countrymen these—red-cheeked, ale-drinking beef­ eaters—and found what I wanted. Yes, it had the making of a good story. There was such a man living alone in a house with a,hundred rooms, in the middle of a desolate marsh, a great inventor, a lunatic, a Russian prince, the true descendant of the Bourbons. This is a summary of the information I received. This was enough for an article already. I had written stories on less provo­ cation than this. Oh, if I had only stopped there and let it go at that! But ambition drove me on, and ambition was my downfall. That afternoon I walked out to the house, a distance of two miles. The prospect looked good—marsh, gloom, hundred rooms, all were there. I advanced boldly up the steps and knocked. I knocked steadily for fifteen minutes, and then, with no little trepidation, turned the knob, pushed the door (which gave way readily to my touch), and went in. You see I was determined to get my, or, rather, my paper's, three pounds worth. So, with thumping heart, I advanced slowly into the room, keeping my eye on the front door. The! house was completely furnished in the fashion of the last cent­ ury. I investigated the first floor thoroughly, and found nothing. I investigated the second floor—still nothing. Night was coming on fast, but there was only one more floor, so, still determined to get my £3 worth, I advanced up the stairway to the third floor. I had examined two or three rooms when I fancied I heard a soft pit-pat behind me. I stopped in my tracks. A cold shiver ran up my spine, and my scalp became all prickly. I screwed up enough courage to turn, and saw—nothing. I advanced a few steps again—again the pit-pat, and, coupled with it, the sensation of being stared at. Turning quickly, I rushed back into the room whence I had just come, and where the sound seemed to originate—still nothing. Now thoroughly alarmed, and all thoughts of getting any more atmosphere driven out of my head, I scrambled back to the room, where I thought I had left the staircase, but no staircase was to be seen. It was now quite dark. Summoning up every ounce of will, reasoning power and courage that I possessed, I tried carefully to retrace my steps. But what will power on this earth could withstand the assault of that measured, ghost-like pit- pat ? Madly I rushed from room to room, but found no staircase anywhere; still the hair-raising pit-pat behind me. For hours I catapulted through those rooms, a raving maniac, knocking over furniture, crashing into walls. Sometimes standing with back to the wall like a wild beast at bay, waiting for It to approach. Sometimes, in desperation, I rushed in the direction in which It seemed to be. But no matter in which direc­ tion I turned, that steady, measured heart-chilling pit-pat was behind me. Dawn found me still in my wild career. Suddenly a thought struck me. Why not end it all by a jump from a window? The love of life is strong in all of us, and I was young. I stopped. It stopped. I ad­ vanced to a window, and with one blow of my fist burst open the rotten shutters. I glanced down. I glanced back. There, peering around the corner in the gray light of dawn, was a chalk-white face with eyes like two burning coals, and from them leered the light of insanity. I jumped.

By a miracle I was uninjured, not even stunned. Springing up I ran all the way to the hotel, without one backward glance. Carefully creeping up the back way (for I knew my host wouldn't recognize m me the slick Londoner of yesterday), I gained my room. Quickly getting into a change of clothing, I started down-stairs. I wanted to be amongst people again. On the landing of the stairs hung a mirror. I looked in. A lock of silver-white hair nestled among the brown ones. The next train to London carried me. On the. way I wrote the story of my horrible adventure. Now I would startle London with an unparalleled example of realism. I had gotten my atmosphere with a vengeance. Saturday afternoon I handed my copy to the Sunday editor. He remarked how badly I looked. He did not see my hair. I kept my hat on. He read it through to the end without comment, a curious, unread­ able expression lurking in the corners of his eyes. "Sonny," he said, when he had finished, "this is the twentieth century. This is England. You'd better get your pay. You must have spent our £3 on something a little stronger than atmosphere." ALAN KLEIN, '15.

PAULEY'S EXPERIMENT Claude Pauley was a chemic shark, A chemist quite too soOn; He tried to 'splode "some hydrogen," One Friday afternoon. Now Pauley had it all prepared In a glass receiver jar, A little 0 mixed in it, too, To make the noise go far. He held it up before the flame So the gases would ignite: Instead of banging awful loud, It only puffed, for spite! We must explain to Klaudey now: "To have the mixture right, Take twice as much of hydrogen As 0, my dear, good night." HAROLD G. PRATT, '15.

THE DREAMING HOUR Between the dark and the daylight, When the lamps have not yet been lit, I lay down my books and my papers, And awhile by my fireside sit. Forgot are the tasks then before me; I forget the day has been drear, And try to forget I'm a Senior, And that soon comes the end of the year. Again I live o'er in my fancy The glad days of my Freshman year; I heedlessly ran to my classes And so troubled my teachers dear. And then I review in my dreaming All my Junior and Sophomore days, And laugh at the scrapes 1 fell into, And my awkward, indifferent ways. But still the thought comes recurring: Very soon I shall be here no more. No longer shall East daily greet me Ev'ry morning with welcoming door. But far from her I shall wander, And strange lands and faces shall see, Or study new things in new places, Whatever my destiny be. But yet I hope when I've left thee, 0 thou school of the blue and the gold, I'll never, no, never forget thee, But still love in my heart for thee hold. 1 hope that thy sons and thy daughters, Altho' far from thine arms they may stray, Shall ever honor and praise thee, As they did in the dear, far-off day.

"MURDER IS MURDER" (At least Theodore Roosevelt once said so'*) I've read in books of the grandeur of war, The rifle's flash, the cannon's roar, And the glory of the flag. Histories tell of struggles of old, And poets sing of heroes bold, And soldiers like to brag. They tell me our country's a glorious land, Made free and great by the soldier's hand, That we should learn to fight; That high school boys should be forced to drill, Be taught to shoot and burn and kill, Thus training their manly might. My country is not "rocks and rills," It is not "woods and templed hills," No patriotism here. My country is the people free Who've learned to use their liberty, 'Tis them I hold most dear. All war is murder with cold intent, And the policy of armament Is merely murder planned. Through justice, peace, and industry We reap the blessings of being free; Our country, not our land. I think of war as it is fought, Of all the waste and sorrow wrought, The widows and orphans made, The hundreds of thousands mangled and slain, The enormous cost and trifling gain; And all its glories fade. I pray my God that wars may cease, That there may come a lasting peace— On earth good will toward men, That armaments may pass away, And come the dawn of the better day, Though it be beyond our ken.

THE HIGH SCHOOL ON A HILL In Cleveland City there's a school, The best by far in town, For fourteen years, as if by rule, It's always won renown. It takes first place in scholarship, In all the sports it's best, In social ties and fellowship It's followed by the rest. What is it makes East High the best? Why do our teams succeed? What makes us win from all the rest And puts us in the lead? It is the spirit of East High, The spirit that inspires, It makes us ever strive and try,— The loyalty that fires. The spirit that knows no retreat, The spirit of do or die, In victory or in defeat We "Do it for East High." This spirit all our work and play Inspires, and ever will, And makes East High, as all must say, The high school on a hill. WILLIAM WRIGHT, '18.

A BOOK TRAVEL NE day in "Middlemarch" two cousins, "Alisa Paige" and "David Copperfield," decided to take a trip around the world. So with O "Great Expectations" they departed. The first place of import­ ance that they visited was the "Eternal City" where they met th,e dis­ tinguished "Vicar of Wakefield." He told them many interesting stories including that long and well-known struggle between Sparta and Athens, a "Tale of Two Cities." "Alisa Paige," who was a lover of stories, asked him to tell them some more stories, so the kind "Little Minister" told them the tale of "The Tempest" and "Julius Caesar." She and her cousin would gladly have listened to more, but as they must see other places and meet many people they had to depart. They next visited the large Art Museum which was situated in "Graustark." Here they lingered for a few days in order to see the beautiful statues of such great men as the "Ancient Mariner," and "The Emperor," Constantine, called "The Christian." While in the Museum one day they met their old friend "Freckles" and his family. They spent the day in talking over old days and when they rose to say good-bye "Freckles" said, "Be sure and come to see our home in the 'Heart of the Desert.' " While at Rome, the "Duchess of Wrexe" invited them to her ball given in honor of "My Lady of the North." The ball was wonderful and "Alisa Paige" and "David Copperfield" enjoyed themselves immensely. The Duchess was kind in taking them through her interesting castle. The castle of the "Duchess of Wrexe" was an old one and had many tales connected with nearly every part of it. There was a room called the "League.of the Leopard." This was a hideous place to them as they learned that a leopard had killed the Duchess's niece in that room. As they neared the large main hall upstairs called "Danger Trail" because it is thought the ghosts used this hall, "Alisa Paige" refused to visit it as she had a "Mortal Antipathy" to ghosts. On the "Twelfth Night" before their return they were honored with such distinguished visitors as the "Merchant of Venice," "Hamlet," "Gor­ don Craig" and the "Man from Brodneys." The next day in their "Scarlet Car" they visited the "Shepherd of the Hills" and "Thurston of Orchard Valley." "David Copperfield," tired out by the travel, suggested that they re­ turn home. But "Alisa Paige" insisted on visiting the "Old Curiosity Shop" before departure. Here she bought many oddities, including the "Green Diamond" and the "Japanese Nightingale." By way of "The Prairie" they finally reached home in the time of "The Heather Moon." ALLASEBA VALENTINE, '15.

OUR NEW LIGHTS

At last the work is finished, The lights are all in place; No more we dread dark mornings, Nor miss the sun's bright face. We dodged the falling plaster, We changed from seat to seat, And learned to bear in silence The boring 'neath our feet. And we were interrupted By smell of gas so vile, And teachers made uneasy By noises all the while. When boring in the ceiling And pounding on the floor Disturbed our recitations, We wished and hoped for more. And tho' the light is brilliant, As now we sit in class, We long for some excitement To help the minutes, pass. WHEELER G. LOVELL, '18.

Did you ever leap forth from your warm, cozy bed, And in the dark, batter the door with your head, Snatch up the receiver, and hear a voice say, "Ve're using der line pleass, get oudt of der vay" ?

THE WAR GOD

The ear of civilization Is bent to the earth to meet The far-off faint vibration Of manifold marching feet. For despite our boasted ideals, Our progress in science and art, We thrill to the War-god's appeals. We are savages still at heart. We celebrate civilization By passionate pageants of pain. In vain is our justification The pitiless question of Cain: "Am I my brother's keeper?" Ask those who lie at the last As wheat in the track of the reaper When the War-god's car has passed. Ruthless, remote, relentless He smiles as in by-gone years, Tho' the flowers of glory are scentless And wet with women's tears; And we rush for the foremost places In a murderous Marathon, Where, steeped in blood to its traces, The War-god's car rolls on.

Now does this not seem hard to you, When all the sky's of leaden hue ? Of course it does no good to fret, But wouldn't it make you a suffragette? MARGARET LOAN, '18.

A CHRISTMAS CANDLE SERVICE N a historic little town in Pennsylvania, which was settled in early Colonial times, is an old chapel. In this chapel, on Christmas eve, is I held a beautiful service called "The Christmas Candle Service." As we entered the door we were surprised at the severely simple lines on which the little church was built. The pews were quaint high-backed ones, and the altar, of very dark wood, was as plain as its surroundings. But to compensate for all this we were greeted by the pungent, spicy odor from the pine and cedar boughs with which the chapel was lavishly dec­ orated. It was but dimly lighted by several large wax tapers around the altar. The audience settled themselves without the usual rustling, and whispered conversation. Somehow the solemnity of the place was too awe-inspiring for talk. In a few moments we caught the sound of music. As it grew louder we discerned that it came from outside, and every eye turned to the door to see the white-robed choir enter. Each singer bore a tall lighted candle, and the dim light of the chapel grew brighter as they came slowly up the aisle and took their places in the chancel. When the last note of "0 Little Town of Bethlehem" died away, the white-haired minister came forward to tell the Christmas story as he had told it for many years. After he had taken his seat, the choir rose and sang "Holy Night! Silent Night!" As the sweet voices died away the congregation knelt for the benediction, and when we passed out, the strains of the old English carol, "God Rest You, Merry Gentlemen," ac­ companied us. Outside the snow was falling and friends were gayly exchanging Christmas greetings as they separated into little groups of twos and threes for the homeward journey. It had been a short service, but so beautiful that it was long to be remembered. And, as we walked home through the falling snow, we felt that it was a fitting prelude to Christmas day.

But there cometh a day when newcomers called "Flats" arrive, and full of joy she runneth up to the third floor, and peereth into the auditorium. And there cometh along a demure little girl, short of skirt and long of curl, who likewise peereth through the door. And the Soph speaketh to her in tones of scorn, saying, "Hello, Cutie. Whither goest thou?" The child answereth not, but looketh askance. So the Soph trieth again. "How seemeth this great school to thee?" Again the other replieth not; and the Soph, provoked to anger, crieth out, "Flat! Flat!" Then doth the other make answer, saying, "Thou art mistaken. I am a Junior." And, lo! the Soph suddenly remembereth an errand down on a lower floor, and descendeth the stairs in rapid strides. ELEANOR M. CLARAGE, '16.

^TlTl I I VTTTT , , . , "TfWDOH W£,BUTWU KNOW,IT'S Ptffrn WHO TO HLftK (JNDtfi THE. BfiLCONV THE PLATFORM SPEAKS Some noted men have spoken here, And many a student, too. I've seen so many quaking knees, I know just what to do. Whene'er the boys climb up the stairs, The football stars, perhaps; I stand as still as I can stand To steady the poor chaps. Sometimes the girls are called upon, And then I feel quite proud, For they so seldom speak of games, And never talk too loud. Rhetoricals are always held Upon my broad strong back; On me, the scenes and furniture The stage committees stack. Sometimes debaters rise to speak, And then I feel secure; The wealth of big words in their heads Makes their success quite sure. Full many words of spicy wit Arouse my sense of fun; Until I think I'll have to laugh Before the speaking's done. But every day when school is out I have my laugh, and shake The auditorium, till all The building seems to quake. MARY E. GIFFIN, '15. — 189 — SMILES

SIMPLE LANGUAGE Speaker in Auditorium: "Some persons make things seem difficult by their use of big words. . . . Political Economy is really very simple. It merely teaches how man gets clothes to wear and a habitation in which to abide."

Translation from German ought to help our English, says our Princi­ pal. Some examples: R. B.: "Who is the little black-head?" "Drinking his wine aloud." Ralph Oldham: "Who belongs to these legs?" Orlin Goudy: "Then she threw her eyes down on the ground." Student (!) : "As soon as the sun went down on the stone table." Another student: "There goes the sun under already." Boy: "She grabbed the bouquet from him." "He grapped the bottle and dumped the rest into the glasses."

"POETA NASCITUR, NON FlT' There was once a young man in East High, Who to write a short poem did try. "You will write it or bust," Said the teacher, much fuss'd, But the poor lad gave up with a sigh. RALPH BRADDON, '16.

TALKING IN THE AUDITORIUM The auditorium, you know, Is a large drawing-room, and so Why not display your manners then, And act like cultured maids and men? When company has come to tea, Do you keep talking steadily? E'en though a guest were talking, too, Would you talk on till he was through? What if your friends do think you tame? You'd best keep quiet just the same! Soph, Junior, Senior, or just Flat, See if you can't remember that! GRACE WALKER, '15.

SHORT STORIES Mr. Julius Gross and Alex Jappe were in Room 5, in company with a few kindred spirits. While they were there, Miss Adams came in to eat her lunch. Later Mr. Boles asked, "How did you boys behave when Miss Adams was here?" "Fine! I opened her incubator for her," said Alex. "Don't look so startled; he means thermos bottle," said Mr. Gross. Miss Edna Little was jubilant over her improvement in Latin. She was sure she had done well in her. test, and was beginning to enjoy Vergil. "The only thing that troubles me is the translation," said Miss Little.

No WIRING NEEDED "What are all the wires lying 'round for?" asked a Senior as she tripped over a coil on her way down from the Auditorium. "They're for our new lights, of course," answered her friend. "Why, we are not going to have electric light," declared the Senior. "Why not?" "Well, Mr. Lothman just said so. He said we were going to have artificial light."

"As SHE IS SPOKE" Gladys: "I went to the orchestra practice yesterday." Her friend: "Did you know anyone there?" Gladys: "Well, several girls talked to me. One, I don't know her name, I knew from East; another—1 didn't know her from Adam—"

CAESAR, THE ANCIENT AND MODERN CONQUEROR Two thousand years ago, in ancient Rome, There lived a mighty ruler, Csesar named; And for his deeds of military skill, Throughout the many nations he was famed. His soldiers conquered tribes both far and near, And overran the land with sword and fire; He conquered Belgian, Briton, German, Gaul, And made his state a great and strong empire. But ah, alas! Rome's "honorable men" Did slay our hero, then they stained his name. But even so, his glory shines undimmed, By Antony and Rome redeemed from shame. And to this day, brave Caesar still fights on, Not with his arrow, battle-ax and spear, No! with his weapon now, his "Gallic Wars," He still doth slay his thousands ev'ry year. WILLIAM WRIGHT, '18.

THE SENIORS AND THE FLAT East High had a little flat, Who liked the seniors so, That everywhere they told him, This flat was sure to go.

She sent him to the office. He never reappeared! GRATIA MURPHY, '15.

A FLAT'S CONCEPTION OF SOME OLD FRIENDS Csesar was a gay old codger, Deafest, richest in the land; But, too proud to be a dodger, He was met by Cassius' band.

M. we all get our Annuals and look up our pictures to see whether they are really as handsome as we are. Last in this full day comes our concert at 8 P. M.

3. The football training camp goes into action for a week. 14. Well, here we are again, with a new and com­ plete set of flats. School begins at 8:30 instead of at 8, as for­ merly. Isn't it strange to get here so late and to find it's so early? 15. According to the latest reports, the alligator has waxed fat. We find that Miss Wright— woman was ever fickle—has, during the sum­ mer, transferred her affections to a mud tur­ tle and a horned toad. Neither her tank nor her heart can accommodate the alligator, under these circumstances. What is to be done? Doesn't someone want to adopt a lovely alliga­ tor with a sunny disposition? 16. All classes adjusted and running on schedule time. This is disgustingly quick work on the part of our teachers. First football practice at Gordon Park. Forty would-be gridders report for duty. 17. First meeting in the auditorium, Tick it up" is the text of the sermon. 24. Athenaeum holds its first meeting. Dorotha Finch, president. 25. Mr. Boles takes his charges by the hand and they go out to Shaw Field to see how Lakewood defeats Shaw High. May we live to administer a like defeat! 29. Dr. Peterson talks to us about "Health" at an auditorium meeting. Mr. Eisenhauer enlarges upon the beauties of our pennants, posters and fobs. Mr. Boles urges us all to come out to Gordon Park and be good sports and play football. Arthur Knight invites us all to come out to the game Friday and to root for East. Ollie George assures us that we are going to win. Then we all roar, "East High will shine tonight," while Mr. Petersilge does stunts on the piano. In the afternoon, Athenaeum girls initiate A I's. 30. First meeting of the Laurean Society.

1. A I class elects officers. Aaron Bodenhorn, president. 2. Glenville-East football game. East wins, 41 to 0. 5. First Zet meeting of the year. James Bigsby, president. 6. The school gathers in the auditorium to hear Mr. Lothman regret­ fully announce that as Monday is Columbus Day, there will be no school. Thereupon Dan Hoyt, our new cheer leader, offers nine 'rahs for Columbus. 7. The Laurean Society initiates new members. 10. No football game today because of the rain. 12. No school today in honor of the fact that Columbus discovered us. East vs. East Tech—a tie game. 13. The Glee Club organizes even if it is the thirteenth. 14. The Laurean Society elects officers. Hazel Brown, president. 16. A I class elects Ben Hubbell, Dan Hoyt, Gladys White and Mary Armstrong members of the new Annual Board. A rally. Messrs. Boles, Sindermann and Gram make speeches. Benjamin Daniel Myers Hoyt teaches us the Locomotive Yell. 17. East, 6; West, 17. This is the first time in the history of our school that West has beaten us at football. Of course, West is proud! Senior-Junior football game. 32 to 0, in favor of the former. 19. Very busy getting our share of the cargo of the Christmas ship ready. 20. Room 23 has harvested an unusually heavy doll crop for transporta­ tion in the Christmas ship. 23. At a football rally, Mr. Boles tells us just why we didn't win the last game of football, and just why we are going to win the next one. B II class elects some Annual Board members. 24. In spite of rain, we play football. East, 7; West Tech, 0. 26. D I and C I classes are permitted to suggest names of candidates for positions on the Annual Board. 27. The Athenaeum Society has a Hallowe'en party. 28. And now the Laurean Society has a Hallowe'en party. 30. Our boys go to Findlay and wallop the high school football team of that city. Score, 10 to 0. Reception to parents of first-year pupils. The parents, freshmen and teachers first gather in the auditorium. Joseph Herbert, presi­ dent of the A II class, tells the flats what to do about it.

— 247 — THE FIRST MID-YEAR COMMENCEMENT O be sure, it was January outside, with snow and ice, but inside it was June, the June of fragrant flowers, soft lights and music, and T maidens in dainty white frocks. The Senior Dance, you say; but you are wrong, for it was Commencement night, Jan-uary 29, 1915, when the first mid-year graduating class made its debut. The auditorium was gayly decked with festoons of smilax and wis­ taria, and the new electric fixtures like huge upturned bowls suspended from the ceiling by brass chains—those fixtures for which we had waited so long, cast a soft glow over everything. At eight o'clock the Seniors filed in to the slow and stately music of the March in D Flat, and'took their places on the platform, on the long white covered tiers of seats. There were sixty-three students in all. The boys in their dark suits, each with a pink rose in his button-hole, from his lady's bouquet, formed a background for the girls in their soft white dresses ornamented with Killarney roses. The class had decided to eliminate the usual commencement speakers chosen from its membership, and instead, had asked a prominent man of the city to be the speaker of the evening. Mr. Dorn of the Board of Education presided, and after Rev. R. R. Bigger had delivered the Invoca­ tion, and the class had sung "The Indian Maid," Professor A. R. Hatton of Western Reserve University gave a very interesting address on "The Art of Keeping Young." His talk was greatly enjoyed by his audience, and everyone felt that the class had made a wise choice in selecting Pro­ fessor Hatton as its speaker. "Hail, Smiling Morn," was sung next by the Senior class, and then came the address and presentation of diplomas by Mr. Lothman. It was a very kindly, heart-to-heart talk, too, that our principal gave us, and one that we shall not soon forget. But before we knew it, the program was concluded, and we had passed another mile-stone in our lives, and were leaving those well-known portals forever. RUTH PAISLEY, '15.

FEBRUARY GRADUATING CLASS ALUMNI

CLASS HISTORY N the morning of February 27th, 1911, there arrived at East High School & Co.'s large manufacturing plant a fresh load of raw O material. This raw material consisted of one hundred and fifty fuzzy white fleeces straight from the backs of the choicest sheep in the flock of Elson & Co. Because of its rare quality, it had been sent to the factory in advance of the usual annual load, and was destined for an experiment. As one of the number of these fleeces that have since been sent from the company as finished products, I will endeavor to show you in what manner, and by what methods our development and perfec­ tion were acquired. That confused mass of woolly fleeces was unloaded and carried in­ side by Manager-in-Chief Lothman, and his assistants, Adams and Find­ ley. We were taken at once to those rooms where the first process was scouring. The task was assigned to employees Kelly, Wright, and Eisen­ hauer, whose duty it was to scour from our minds all memory of the happy days prior to our advent in the factory, and all juvenile tendencies and illusions. The most cruel and relentless brush used was that called "Latin Lessons." This scouring continued for a whole year, and was carried on most cheerfully and diligently by our tormentors. At the end of a year, however, we were sent to the upper floor, where experts Peters, Black, and Hanna proceeded to comb out all the snarls, and, incidentally, any shreds which had not been thoroughly treated the previous year. Each of these professionals possessed her own special kind of comb. Miss Hanna's little fine-toothed comb delighted in disengaging those snarls known as non-concrete and indefinite statements, while it was the duty (and pleasure) of Miss Peters' two-edged weapon to ex­ tricate all laxity or disinclination for prose composition. When these offensive snarls were all removed, and we had all been carefully examined, those who survived were sent to the spinning rooms. Here, under the direction of spinners Sanderson, Lynch and Knight -we were spun into neat white skeins. Some of us looked a bit meager and washed . out, while others were very full and fluffy. A few were tied with yellow ribbons (which was a mark of great honor), while oth­ ers were bound with five black lines, and fastened with a G clef, which symbolized the glee-clubs. We found this process more pleasing than the two former ones, and looked forward with great pleasure to the fourth and last stage of development. After being packed away on the shelf for three months, we were taken down and dusted off by weavers Findley, Adams, and Beman. Then we were each woven into a piece of cloth, whose pattern was deter­ mined by what we had accomplished in the earlier stages of our produc­ tion. Some had beautiful and elaborate designs; some were simple and conventional, while there were a few whose designs were confused and imperfect, but no one was without a design of some sort. On exhibition day, January 29th, the two who had acquired the most beautiful and per­ fect patterns were selected from our number. And now we are all finished products, ready to go out into the world, the better prepared because we bear the trade-mark of East High School & Co. JOSEPHINE HIDY, '15.

CLASS DAY EAR ZACHARIAH. I have just begun to breathe natural after seein' the ways young D people act nowadays. They never did such things in my time, never! As you know, I went to Class Day, as they call it at East High, on January 22. They had the performance at night, which was rather queer considering its name. Well, when I reached the auditorium I took a seat pretty well front and waited. After a while a girl came in and began to play the piano. Then the class marched in. Six of them went upon the platform, and they all stood up while the pianist made one dive at the piano with both hands and then stopped real quick. She did this twice, and nothing happened. But the third time they all remembered and sat down together as if they'd all had heart-failure at once. Then a boy on the platform got up and said the first number would be the Class History. Then another boy arose and nodded his head to the first boy to tell him he could sit down now. Then he began to speak. It was a very solemn story. I declare I felt real sorry for that old man and woman he told about, but the class kept smilin' and laughin' all the time. But then young folks are heartless nowadays. Next, a young girl recited a poem. She talked about her teachers somethin''terrible, and she didn't seem a bit ashamed, just talked on. She as good as said that one of her Latin teachers was stingy because she didn't serve any "eats," as she called them, at an entertainment or some­ thing that she gave. Oh! Zachariah, I don't know what we are comin' to! Well, anyhow, she finished after a while, and the people clapped and clapped, and laughed, and seemed to think it was all funny. The next number was called the "Mantle Oration." A young girl with a beautiful blue and gold mantle around her shoulders came for­ ward My! That was a beautiful cape, Zachariah! Sue Perkm's red

— 252 — ALUMNI one wouldn't have been anywheres. Well, first this girl told the story of the "Little Lame Prince." She told about the wonderful cloak his god­ mother gave him and the happiness it brought. Then she said the man­ tle she had on was just as wonderful and brought just as much happi­ ness. Then, Zachariah, she began on the Bible. She told about Elijah giving his mantle to Elisha when he, meaning Elijah, went to heaven. She said that mantle stood for Responsibility. Then she told them that their mantle was just as important. Now, Zachariah, don't you think that's a mite disrespectful? I don't know as I think Rev. Stone or Deacon Stubbs would approve of having Elijah's mantle compared to that blue and gold one she wore. Suddenly she undid the clasp of the mantle and turned to speak to one of the girls who was sittin' down. This girl jumped right up and came over. The first girl put the mantle around her shoulders, gave her some good advice, and took her seat. Right away, the second girl began to answer everything the first one had said. Her speech was very good, but anyone could see that she was reproachin' the first girl for havin' advised her what to do. The last number was a piano solo. It was a real pretty piece, but I just couldn't take my eyes off that piano. It was so big and black and shining. But it certainly needs polishin'. I tell you I certainly wish 1 could take some of my own furniture polish and shine it up a bit. The next thing was what they called the "Prophecy Play." It was called the "Purloined Poodle." The play was certainly awful queer. It was given in the lobby of a hotel. The clerk had very poor manners. He kept fixin' his hair and neck-tie, and he yawned perpetual. They'd never stand for such doings at the "Farmers' Inn," I c'n tell you. There was a bell-boy, too. He was mighty pert. And then there was a very queer man who kept wanderin' around sort of disconnected like, pickin' up threads and things from the floor. Presently in came a woman lookin' scared to death, askin' could she hev a room. She wouldn't let the bell­ boy come near her. My land, she was a caution! I've lived in the coun­ try all my life, but I hope I don't look like that! She had two monster pink flowers on her hat, and she carried a yellow bag with everything under the sun in it, and talk—why a phonograph couldn't keep up with her a second. She had just gone out when in walked a tall woman all rigged out in a brown suit, white gloves, violets and veil. She brought a maid and a white woolly dog. My Sakes, what a fuss she made over that dog! Well, after they had been out a minute the maid came rushin' in, sayin', "Baby was lost." I never saw such a scene! The maid ran up and down weepin' and ringing her hands, and everybody flew around like so many chickens. After awhile four queer lookin' people came in and announced that they were singers. They offered to sing for Mrs. Smythe, the one whose dog was lost. She had come in just before they did, and was crying, too. Well, they sang, and when they got through that woman was asleep! Though how she could ever do it, is more'n I know. Then in came the country woman with a huge hat-box, and she talked, and talked, and talked. Then, suddenly she remembered her knittin' and got it out to show Mrs. Smythe, who was sobbin' on the maid's shoulder. And Land Sakes! She dropped that basket all of a sudden and just screeched. Then the disconnected man who was still around, reached down and hauled out that little white poodle, and Mrs. Smythe grabbed him in her arms, meaning the poodle, and said, "Baby!" Don't ask me my impressions yet, Zachariah. Give me time to get my breath and get over feelin' like a top that's spinnin' round and round. DOROTHY STANLEY, '15.

From whence doth come the Annual? Doth grow upon the trees? Nay, verily; like honey-comb, 'Tis made by busy bees. These busy bees are not the kind That fly on aerial wings. Not theirs to make things sweet, we find, Nor do they have sharp stings. But sharp, indeed, they fain would be, Each ad. to gather in; For partly, 'tis the ads you see Help us the goal to win. And now we ask of ev'ry one Who's bought our little book, To open to the Ad. Section And for himself to look. We wish that you would read each name, And at these places buy. Now one and all, we're in the game To do it for East High. WALLACE MOUAT. '17.

The Spencerian Commercial School offers the only Private Sec­ retary Training Course of its kind in America. High School gradu­ ates and college men and women are eligible. Upon the completion of the Business Course Unit, young men will be accepted in the Higher Accounting and Auditing Department. Ask the most progressive business man you know what you had bet­ ter do after your high school course is completed. His answer un­ doubtedly will be, "Go to the Spencerian." It is more than probable that the business man himself is a Spencerian Graduate. "IT IS BETTER TO ATTEND THE SPENCERIAN THAN TO WISH YOU HAD." EUCLID AVE. AND 18TH ST.

MILD HEALTHFUL HEAT. MOUAT When you Want It Where you Want It • Graduating Vapor InJust theRifrht Amount Heating Syst'em DY rendering the kind of heating service that people have al- -'-' ways wanted and have never before been able to obtain, the Mouat Graduating Vapor Heating System is being rapidly adopt­ ed by those who want the very best system that money can buy. The Mouat System uses vapor as the heat-carrying agent. As much or as little heat as desired may be obtained by turning the Mouat fractional Valve which permits any percentage of the radiator to be heated. The heat responds immediately and the Mouat Regulator automatically conforms to the varying require­ ments, operating dampers when coal is being used or governing the amount of gas entering the boiler when this fuel is used. Owners proclaim this system to be the "Finest in the world." 1246 W. 4th St. THE MQUAT-SQUIRES CO. CLEVELAND, OHIO

Delbridge A man who saves a dollar is a benefactor; one who teaches another to save a dollar is a public benefactor and should be knighted by the state. A dollar put in the bank at compound interest takes root instantly, it is not parched or burned by drouths; not killed by frost or sleet. It cannot be injured by heat or by cold, by famine or pestilence, by Are or flood. It will not be lost through a hole in the pocket nor borrowed by some pestilential friend or boon companion. It is beyond the reach of earthquake or lightning-, accident, sneak-thief, thug or murderer. It works for you by day and by night, Sundays, legal holidays and week days are all the same to it. It will not rust nor rot, nor be eaten by worms. It will sprout and mature a crop of interest for you every year throughout all eternity and then be as fresh and as ready to go on working for you and your descendants, as the day it was first carried to the Bank. It will be a slave that neither eats, drinks nor sleeps, nor dies, and needs no overseer. _ The investment of money in a savings account at the bank at compound in­ terest is the best investment, the most profitable and the greatest and grandest speculation that I know anything about.

287 GONE FLAT AGAIN!

J-". ,-•• • No sharp report. Just the gradually perceptible jolting that tells of a leaky tube gone flat again. Hot, shadeless road and a dusty, dirty job. That's the story of the need­ less puncture so common with cheap, machine-made tubes that leak around valves and become porous in service. The way to avoid these unnec­ essary punctures is to equip your car with Kelly-Spring­ field Tubes, which are made slowly and painstakingly by hand and, out of real rubber. Kelly-Springfield Tires are made the same way. Use them with Kelly-Springfield Tubes and you will add increased tire mileage to freedom from need­ less tube trouble.
