In th e earl y fall , after th e usual ri tua l of registratio11 , lo cation of class rooms, exploration of cam pus, a nd first sieges of homesickness, th e new students and the fo rmer m embe rs of the class all met in front of the chapel, and proceeded to tran:l "some11·here" west of t01n1 for a moo nlig ht picni c. From that time there 11·ere no "ne11·" juniors -11·e were all o ld f rie nd s ! Then in March, the juniors entertained th e se ni o r cl ass at an in fo rmal party. This evenin g, too, is fu ll of happy memories . The social events, alone, are not the onl y items of inte res t. T here are the recollections of a pro11·ess in regard to c lass pennants, athletic contests, and va rious school act ivit ies 11·hich 11·ere ah1·ays 11·ell supported by members of the junior class . The yea r has been a de light, and a sou rce of satis faction to junio r, 11·hil e the loyal support of our class ach ·ise r , -:\I iss Dunn , 11·ill be a happy memory to us.

Friendship If tonight should be ou r last hour spent together, If days or weeks should find us far apart, Wou ld absence cause our friend ship tics to sever . Or leave an empt y space in some friend's hea rt ? It must be tru e that friends arc friends foreve r , T ha t friendsh ip \\路ancs not with the Hccting years, Then we'll not fear that these strong t ics may seve r Nor weaken them by foolish doubts a nd fears. Friendship is not measured by mere miles or hou r;;, It reaches o'er the oceans, through the years, So then w hen we've g rO\nl old and bent a nd wea ry Through tasting of li fe's many j oys a nd fea rs L et's each one hope and feel t h at somew here's smi ling, T he l ips and eyes of dear old college f riends, It must be true that f ri ends are friends forever, If not, w hy d id God let us be friends?

The seventh, eighth , ninth, and tenth grades arc included, in ,,·hich there h as been an enroll ment of one hundred pupils. In the reorganization, new cou rses in science and comme rc ial ,,·ill be offered. A definite attempt \Yill be made to adapt th e cou rse to the needs o f the 1rupil a nd help th e pupil find himself. Supervised study is being ca rr ied on in t he four g rades , affordi ng a splendid o pportunity for student teachers to get first hand knO\ded ge of it. It is hoped that the reo rgani zation \\·ill not onl y make it possible for pupils to get the training that " ·ill best fit them for the " ·ork they will enter, but that it \\·ill also furnish a laborato ry in " ·hich student teachers may be trained to meet the g rowing demand for J u nior H igh School ,,·orkcrs. The High School this yea r has taken a co mm endabl e part 111 all fo rms of \\·a r acti,·ities. Almost one hundred pe r cent of the pupils helped 111 the Y. :\I. C. A . dri,·e in the fall. Since that time th ey ha ve helped in Red C ross drives, by taking out memberships and in " ·ork for the soldiers, se\\·ing for French orpha ns, bu ying th ri ft stamps and in g iving help in food conse rvation programs and d emo nstrations. A numbe r are enrolled in ga rden a nd pig clubs to aid in food production. A commendable spirit of patriotic service h as bee n shO\nl d u r ing the year.

The 1917 Football Season From the standpoint of stand ing and from th e standpoint of a team our 1917 football season coul d hard ly be cal led a success. \ V hen t he season opened it \\·as found that on ly one old ,·arsit~· man ,,·as back to he lp mould th e team and but fe ,,· of the remaini ng could e1-cn boast of ha,· ing been on the 19 16 rcsen·e l is t. T hus ,,·ith th e open ing o f t he season the p rospects looked g loom ~· indeed and remained so th roughou t the season. It is u nd oubtedly true t hat Coach J oh nso n was co nf ronted ,,·ith one of the ha rdest problems of his life w hen he attempted to make a team strong enough to cope wit h Neb raska's st ro ngest footba ll teams. most of 11·hom ,,·e re most fortunate 111 having a great pl en ty of material. Th ~ playing thro ughout t he season \\·as natura lly more o r less mechanical with a team of such g reen mate ri al. It ,,·as noticeabl e that the sixt h sense (the football s~ nse) and individua l d iagnosis of the opponents' plays ,,·ere lack ing. It would , ho\\"eve r , be a d isc red it to t he team and to ou r Coach to stop here. To an individu al \\·ho \\"atched the g rm,·th o f the team from t he first \\"Cek t ill th e last its prog ress must have been a revelation. For real perse1·erance and sportsmanship the team should be g i,·en as much cred it as an y team Peru has eve r boasted of. T he first game of t he seaso n \\·as played on ou r home field ,,·ith th e strong \ Vesleya nites \\·ho proved to be too mu ch for our beginners and romped a11·ay ,,·ith th e long end of a 63 to 0 sco re. T he score perhaps \\·oul d not have bee n q uite so d ecided had not se1·era l of th e va rsity bee n out of the l ineup.

Then Dr. House read us a particu lady delig htful detecti\·e stor~· by cand le light. vVhen he had fi nished. some one had th e presence of mind to look at the clock and we knew it \\·as t ime to go.

ST O R Y OF T H E PLAY "Her Husband 's \ V ife" is a most amusing comedy fa rce. T he author starts "·ith a farce, but before the fi nal cunain falls, it is raised to th e dignity of a comedy. The three acts of th e play take place in t he li vi ng room of Stu art Randolph and wife, in the U nited States H otel, during th e racing season at th e Spa. :\Irs. Randolph is li ving \\·ith th e co nsta nt belief th at she comes of a sho rt l ived fami ly and that she \\·ill d ie soon. Thinking th at death is not fa r m\·ay she is an x ious to fin d a suitable " ·ife for her husband. She \\· ants someone who ,,·ill see to his comfo rt and be a sort of mother to him. Of course she is carefu l to choose someone ,,·ho is " plain" and who ' \you ld not be li kely to let him forget me". Finall y she selects an old schoolmate " ·ho has always been very modest and retiring, almost motherly, in fac t. B ut " ·hen lVI iss L ade\\" lea rns of her fri end 's "·ish she feel s that it is an insult, and resolves to revenge herself by agreeing all too q ui ckly. Instead of remaini ng quiet and retiring she blooms fo rth in th e most el aborate go" ·ns, and shO\YS herself to be ver y attractive, indeed. l\!Irs. Randolph almost immediately reg rets her ba rgain, and no longer has any desire to die. She tu rns all her energies to preventing her self-sel ected successor from attracting her h usband. Richa rd Belding and Emily \Yho .had formerl y bee n engaged no"· mee t again , and it is Richard instead of Stuart " ·ho takes Emily to the races; and Stuart apparentl y forge ts her ex ist ence. B ut Irene does n't not ice this, and she paints her husband as black as possible in order to dissuad e Emily Lade\\· f rom her imagined choice. She points to a bruise o n her arm , d ecl aring th at Stuart has beaten her. ' iV hen Emil y is no t terrified by this prospect, she in fo rms her that Ste\nrt is an habitual drunkard. But this only aid s E mil y in her revenge, for she reports " ·hat Irene has told her , and, o f course, complications arise. Fi nall y, all end s happily through the aid of J ohn Belding, th e benevolent, amusing uncle of I rene. E mil y and. Richard an nounce their engagemen t and Irene's j ealous excitement is changed to sisterl y love. Furth ermore, she decides that death is not so near afte r all.
