The Cit roni:m held a regular m tino- Fri<lay eveuing and held a good debate on the qne ti n: Hcl!olv ll, That a ornpul ory voting law J1ould h cnactell in the State of :Nrbr::tl!ka. On a ·count of the rain •sev ml of toe lll 'n1lwns were ab cut, but their places were w1! ll tilled. b. the visitors vre ent, Mesi:rs. Mogen, Johnsou, Cliapi11 an<l Jone:.

Aft<>r the debate a bu , iness 11 cNing wa held the result of which 8idney at1CI Curtis Collius were clc·cted memb rs of the weronian;; and several w ·re pledged to thP society.

We believe that the inter t in debating is

increa in"' rn the school e pe ·ially among our lower clas men. More visito rs are u ticed at our meetings, an 1 the debating cla is continually growing. We hope that a great many tudent will enter the preliminaries for the Colorado Debate. Although only three debator will be chosen, each one has the sam chance to be ·ome a representative from the L. 11. ., and thoRe who are not fortunate enough to obtain a pla e on the debate will be greatly benefited by th practice in the prelimiuarie

The Ciceronians and Phlogistiau have de·ided to have a jo.i n t party at the home of Frank Ph i llips. The <late has not as yet be n decide 1 uvon. Brownings and lfawthornes mile sweetly upon the boy and maybe you will get a bid.

After the debate the que tiou was thrown open to the society. All tbP rn>mb r were iuterest d in the qucstio11 and every 011c hi id as on the Rul.Jject.

Later we listeu d to th report of th committ e scot lo c ufer with the iceronian oncerning a party to be given to the Brownin"'S and Ilawtbornes.

Notes

As the te r m of onr former offi ce rs was up, we elected new o n es last W eclnesday with the fo ll ow ing resu l t:

President, Marga r et WheP l er Vice-Pres ident, Vera Shaupp Secreta r y and Treasure r , Te rr y Moyer Atto r uey, H igh l ancl Whee l e r s ,i rgea n t -at-arms, Hai·lan Whyman Cr i t ic, Miss C lark vVe d iscussed the qu es tion, Reso l v ed: That boys are ab u sed in the home. T h e boys absolutely refosed to say a word aud Maro·aret Whee l er had to sta nd up for their r ights all alone. The question soon became, Resolved, That boys shou ld he l p thei r siste r s wash dishes and strange to say al most a ll the girls ta l ked on the affirmative.

Next W eclnesday Miss Clark is going to t1lk to us about the way to get up a debate using the question conccrniug the ·str ike re as an illustration. Th i s will be a great help to a ll who want to do anything in the debating line and a cord ia l inv itation is extended to everyo ne. Remember, room 304, after the seventh Wednesday.

There are two classes of High School papers. One (by far the largest) prints local dramat i c news, current events, and literature-class essays, with a sp ri nkling of Spring Poems and Exchange Comments, meaningless to the great bulk of the paper's readers. It is a question whether a High School paper should be made to in lerest its readers, or to exchange comp l iments with other exchanges Should it print news i tems of interest to the schoo l as a whole, o r an uninteresting attempt at an essay on "New England Flowers"? Surely there can be but one a n swe r.

E n tered at th J post ol!i;a at Lincoln a s class matter under act of March 3. 181D.

We have a ll heard many times complaints that have been made of the waste of time i11 high schools over an education that is impractical, and little calculated to equip the student with any knowledge, that bas commercial valtie. While Roman hi s tory way be i11structive, even int e resting, or Latin verbs splendid for mental traiuiug. ueitber goes very far in the average case toward procuring bread and butter. A larg e vercentage of high school students need systcmaLic trai.ning along practical linet:i, leaving them something 011 which they may depend iu practical emergencies. The great need is for practical educatiou; to train the hand to carry out the orders of the trained mind. Some cities have two high schools, one devoted to laugnages, mathematics and other academic subj ec ts, etc.; the other, a manual training high schoo l, where tho' languages and mathematics are given to some extent, the feature is practical education This is not advisable for Lincoln, of course, where two high sc hools could not be supported and where one ii:; so well estabfo1bed.

This ue ed for nrnn ua l train i11g has beeu r ecog nized n eve rth e less and au attempt is beiug made to meet it. Last year sewing classes were started composed of girls. Fresh classes are being coutinued uow and a n in c r eased inter est is sbowu. Drawing has been introduc ed a long with sew ing, and its purpose is to cultivate the artistic sense, so e:sse11tial in dr ess making. At first it i>cerns a little wearisome, perlia1 s, to spend time drawing a chalk-box, when with the needle one might be making a dainty white ap ron. But the apron must be designed by the maker a11<l drawn on paper. Th en measurements must be made and p atterns cut. The haud needs pra ctice aud the eye training to d o this. Later on darning and mending of all kinclR will be introduc ed, and in th e drawing a course 111 decorative art might follow.

All this is experimental, but in later years, it will s110ceed for it is necesimry. Optimistic persous l oo k for th e clay when not only sewing scientifically taught, lrnt cooking :i.s well will be a permaue11t part of the course of study in the L. H. S. For the boys it is hoped practica l drawing and kiuclr e rl subjects will be afforded. Then the stude11t., who must have gooll equ ipment for making his own way, ca n come to the Lin co lu High School and get it, along with the helpful associatio11s which High School life offers.

Ciceronian-Phlogiston l'arty .

'l'he Ciceronians and Phlogistons entertaim d the Brownings and Ha.wthornes at the home of Fra11k Phillips Friday evening. About twenty couples and several odd boys were present. The Hoors were crrnvassed and dancing formed the principal amusement.

About half past ten checks were distributr>d and the guests were ushered into the dining r oom which was uniquely titted np after the fashion of a German bar room. Typical German refreshments were purchased with the checks. l:Iarol<l Steiner and 1\'fa on Whe eler who were adorned in white aprons, felt much at home behind the bar, (Joke) and filled the glasses with much grace, aside from dropping a few glasses aud spilling a few quarts of ginger ale, filled their office in an admirable way.

Genuine Germa11 cheese (guaranteed to be seven years old, of cour e kept under cover)

rye bread, dill p ic k Jes, pretzels and gi11ger ale, formed the r epas t. After this dainty lunch, the guests resumed their dancing and about micl11ight said good 11ight. all declaring that th ey enjoyed themselves immensely. 'l'he Cicernniau-Phlogiston party was a long time in coming but when it did come it was a success.

Tbe members of both societies feel greatly indebted to Mr. Phillips for the use of bis home and attribute the success of the unJertaking to the committee composed of Harold Steiner, Ellery Davis, Harry Yates, George Elmeudory and Newell Barnes.

Browning Notes

The regular meeting of the Brownings was held as usual in room 302. The following interesting program was rendered:

Marie Wyrick Emma Swezey

The deb ate was especially good, and sound argumtnt was offered by each i;iJe. After the regular programme an impromptu one wal:l given by the new members. Perhaps the moet interesting feature of this, was the chalk t,alk, talked by Louise Brace and chalked by Pauline Burkett.

The party given by the Phlogistons and Ciceroniaus last Friday ev<>ning was thoroughly enjoyed by every Browning present.

The pie-feed committee announces that the annual pie-feed will be given in the High School library . Friday evening, Octobe1· 24. With a few alterations, the same advice can be given the Phlogistons and Ciceronians, which the latter offered the Brownings and Hawthorues a short time ago:-Boys, smile sweetly upon the Browning girls and perhaps you will get an exceptionally big piece of pie. The

society extends a cordial invitation to all Phlogiston and Ciceronia11s.

Hawthorne Notes.

The Hawthorues' h(;ld their regular meeting Monday ni(Tht after the seventh period in room 402. After the business was dispensed with two of the girls were sent down town to buy pies for the crowd. Although the pies were not homc-rrnide we enjoyed them immensely. All the girl attended the Lincoln-Omaha football game in a crowd.

The Hungarian Baud met last Saturday afternoon at the home of Maude Hunger. This was the first party of th e season. Tbe first part of the afternoon was spent iu taffy pulling. But the main feature was a ba:;;k e t ball game. A four course luncheon was served at 5 :30. -------

Senior Notcs.

The Seniors showed last Friday, at classmeetiug, that if they wanted to, they could be as patriotic as auy one. The noise was so deafening, that at times we were obliged to stop uµ our ears We gave our yells 111 u11ison, too, and sang our songs very well indeed. In fact, the boy were t>O carried away with their enthusiasm that the president hacl to use severe measures, (fining these enthusiastic youths) before th ey fully realized that other important matters were awaiting their attf'n tion.

Dr. Wolfe visited us during the first part of our me et ing, and gave us a talk on class fracas. He asked us to take some action on this matter and we unanimously adopted the resolution of last year, which proved so satisfactory. A copy of these resolutions will be sent to each of the lower classes.

Our pins arrived during the early part of last week, and we are very proud of them. The class wishes to congratulate Mist! Ring, and the other members of the committee, who have spent so much time ai:d hard work in procurring the pins, on their fine success, as everyone seems well satisfied with the result.

Although the 8eniors will not go together to the Omaha-Lincoln football game, they will

.After a somewhat leugthy discussion by tbe c lass in regard to tllis matter, the fo ll owing r esolution was adopted:

«Hello, :Ma r ge, won't you come ·w i th n1' to row at ten?" The speaker, a youth of twe;ve, sat down on the pie1·, d::rngliug bis baxe feet in the water. Il e had o u t the r ow-roat and made i t fast at th'i <lo1Jk, when, g l anci ng up to the sho r e, he saw a pretty lit t le maiclm, on l y two summers younge r than him self, go wheeling along the cycle-va tb "Oh, thare Marge" he thought "uow I won't have t.o go 'way over there to ask her.''

I t did n 't once occur to Tommy how well the matched bis ha.ii- a n d how well it brought out t he uumerott!! fr ec kl es on his face.

Bttt all of Tommy's fo nd hopes were dashed to the gro trnd. Fvr, passiug a n ope n space a long the shore', he saw a sma ll boat wit h two people, o u t 011 the lake. "That's Bobby, a u <l who e l e ca n it be? Oh pshaw, I know it ai u 't her. G u ess she said ;; h e'd go with me a n ' I know she wouldn't go with him when she cou ld go with rne."

Yes, sir, he kn ew now 'twas Bobby 's doings and iu bis youthful heart he was already planing a duel. He ' d have Teddy for a second, and those other boys acrosR the street would come (to be sure, h e'd nev e r give11 them a moment's thought before, but be was coul:id11nt they ' d join this conspiracy against Bobby.) Ah, wouldn't Bobby scorch then! And with these wild thoughts, be weut back home to tbiuk it over.

But wisdom whispered that mayuc he'd better not fight a duel. It really would disgrace ibe family name so! To think of a proud Richardson fighting a cl uel -a nd with such an insignificant chap as that Bobby. No, that was out of the question. Clearly the best couri;e was to ignore Bobby -a nd Marge too. Ahl That would be the hardest ].Hirt But rnuRt b e taught •t le$ on. So Tommy tortured himself a nd Bobbie g loried in having won the day.

Several years passe<l. Now our To n1my had dropped tbe babyish last i;y liable of his name. He bad just graduated from the Uni. and was feeling his importance very much, though not just as he had when we knew him before. To<Tether with the r e t of the Richardson fa11Ji ly he was again summering :i.t the lake. J\Lrny times be thought of Marge aud oft.hat c hildish folly of pis - but never would he sa.y anything of it to her, or let her think he wished it otherwist'.

She, too, had often thought of how much fun they might have had, but Tom was a l ways so cold, she couldn't say a word about it And wllen she gave him he r sw('etest smile, the only return was a cool glance of recognition

But at tbe formal opening of the club house, Marge was so cbarmiug anfl b ea utiful that not even Torn coulJ resist, and when she smiled he was surprisel to find himself asking for her

program. Nor did she object wh e n he c laimed more than one dauce.

After the dauce, Tom sought her again and said: " Miss Forsythe- Marge, just once -do you remember l ong ago you prnmised to go boating with me in the morning at ten? Do you think it's too late to keep your prnmise ?"

And Bobby did not interfere that time.

If you go down within a block of the J St. grounds, you will he able to see a great bare spot on the ground there. That's where the Sophomores wiped up the broad earth with the 1 proud Junior foot ba ll team. The score was 0 to 0 in favor of the Sophomores. The Juniors run up against a stone wall when they run up against the SophomoreR. They are 110 longer champions of th e Lincoln High Sl,hool, but the "Stone Wall Sophomores" are high above all. As to the welfare of the Juniors, the Seniors will have yet another chance to beat them, and when that is aecomplished, the Freshmen are going to show them how to play foot ball once again .

Fro m a J un ior's Stan dpoint

Mich1t the chi ll y breezed anrl the swirling dust, two mighty hosts su r ged baukwa r d and forward over a gory battl efield. Though one army was vast ly superior in strength and power than the other, uevertheless tlie w " aker ide by its perfect discipline and manage n e nt, like the mighty Spartons of old at the battle of TLermopy l ae who doggedly 1·esisted the "Barbaric" forces unti l the sun sank l ow beyond the ilistant hills, utt e rly non-pulsed the enemy at every onslaught . But un l ike the Spartans of old, who always combed their raven iouks at battle, this forc e com bed the wool of the enemy

In l ike manner did the mighty Junior team, weak e ned hy the absenc e of some of its members, completely defe&t the ski ll fu l maneuvers (?)of the supposedly infal l il> l e and i nvint i b l e Sophomore football team. Even at the time when our noble centre, Ray Rainbolt, with all the strength of a mighty Hercu l es, well-nigh threw a goal from the cent r e of the field, and gave th em the last opportunity of their l ife · time to ever scoro a point, they, with their child-like simplicity, fai led to take advantage of their last chanc e and let it go - for ever.

After an hour (more or of cea seless effort 011 the part of the Sophomo r es to outwit the Junior,. , tin)e was ca ll eJ, just as the stro1 1g Junior team w i th the power of A ·hi l les was carryi1Jg the so-ca ll ed uncouq uerab l e Sophomore t eam to its fate, co n tending against all the elements of nature as well. The game was ended but the score stood a s follows: Juniors, positive 0.

Sophomores , ne.gat i ve 0, with the rim taken aw::ty.

Never rn i n d, Sophomor es. vVhen you become 8eniors (if you ever reach that dignity?) then possibly yon can defeat the underclassmen.

Og Notes.

Many were the parties held Hallowe'en evening, but perhaps none so enjoyable and uuique as the one given by the Ogs at the home of Edith Burlingame, 1810 Holmes St. Wienl lights sifted through the yellow shades and the Japanese lantern s dangling overhead

Early in the evening guests arrived in ghostly garb and for a time were Pugaged in trying to discover who their were. But eve ryone was not successful in this venture as they were su rprised when the masks were removed at the close of the grand march.

Throughout the eveniDg ci der was served in copious(?) quantities by ruem bers of the committee. The polished floors were in exce llent co ndition for danciug and everyone took advantage of their opportunities.

In the dining-room a rnde hut constructed of co rnstalks served as a tent for the gypsy fortune-teller. Y onths and maidens thronged the room, eager to learn the mysteries of the future.

Appropriate refreshmeutlil consisting of pumpkin pie, doughnuts and coffee were served. Although a crowd of boys attempted to rnar the pleasures of the evening, they were unsu ccess ful, and at a late hour the guests departed, unanimously voting the eve ning une of the most pleasant ever spent.

The Ogs are indebted to Mrs. Burlingame

Address all communication s and exchange• to THE AnvoCATE, High School , Lincoln , Nebr. Entered at the post office at Lincoln a s sewnd class matter und er act of March 3. 1879.

On last Friday morning at chapel, Dr. Wolfe said, that sho uld we prove ourselves deserving, we would be allowed to chapel five clays out of the week instead of three. So that it now lies with the students as to whether we shall have chapel, eve ry clay or not. If eve ry stude nt sees to it that bis conduct is as good as can be expected, aud try and influence his 1rnighbor to do likewis e, tht>11 we will undoubtedly gain that which we strive for. ---

In the Liucoln -Omaha game last Saturday, two of the Omaha players were ruled out on account of low marks in certain studies. Prof. Waterhouse, the principal of the Omaha High School ce rt a inly deserves great credit for th e stand he took in th e matter. In the future, a man who wishes to play foot ball will first see that his are above }Jassing mark before he enters the foot ball aretia. The Lincoln boys went into the game Saturday with a clean record and not one of them had marks in stud ies that cou ld be questioned.

Attend Class Meetings

"Things done by ha! ves are u eve r done right."

This old adao-e holds true among the vari1,us classes of the school as well, and even better than anywhere else. If the class meetings are carried on in a half-hearted way, the results which are accomplished will be as inetfC'cllrnl as the work which is doue. Th e familiar saying, "lD uuiou there is l'trength," is prov f.D here and realized by eve ryone. The clasB is supposed to be managed au cl cond ucte<l according to the sentiments of all of its member If ouly about h a lf of the memb e rs, and sometimes uot that many , attend class meetings, how caD the c las · be governed by all of its members"? It is iu the chiss meetiugs that the students are aroused t0 son e activity, becomiug more loyal to their class and to their school, gaining mor e seif-respect, aD<l co 11si<leration for others, and becoming more en thusiastic, and taking more interest in all 1:1chool affairs. 'fhe chapel exercises aud the c lass meetings are two of th e most important fun ctions of the lligh School. Anyone who will uot attend their regular class meet iugs o ught not to be allowed to enjoy the privil eges of the class.

Hawthorne Notes.

The Hawthorues' held their regular meetin g iu room 402 after the seventh period. Th e meeting was rather short as some of the girls wished to attend their class foot ball game. Th e business was postpon e d until the next meeting and the committee furniRhed creampuffs and salted peanuts which were e11joyecl very much.

The girls of the society were entertained last Friday night at a Hallowe'en party (given at the home of Marie Talbot) by Fancho11 Ho ope r , lVlary Minor, Hazel Vandenburg, and :Marie Talbot. The house aucl vera ndas were brilliautly lighted Ly large jack-o-lanterns hung along the ball a11d stairway. 'fhe girls were entertained on arriving on the veranda, where they were serenaded from below by a party of young gentlemen. They the11 proceelled to the basement, where in one room a large table was set out with plates of taffy ready to pull,

Lincoln 11 - Yo rk 5

In a game, in whi ch n othi n g but stra ig h t footba ll was p layed, th e Lincoln High Su h oo l defeated the Yo rk High Schoo l , and won the Stat.e championship for the fourth co n secutive time.

Th e team left Lincoln at 10:50 in the morning, r eac hin g York at noon, and put u p :it the G rand Hotel. In the eyes of the fo ll owe r s, the York eleven, they did not look ver y husky. Captai n Kimmel was pale, having just r ecove r ed from a s li ght illuess. Barwick, quarterback, had o n e h and all bandaged up, a n d Mat!'lon and Hawley were both limpin g.

For Linco ln, Mason and Hawley were th e sta r s, and the whole teri.m played ball. For Yo rk , Taylor, the big colored lad from the Sun n y South, made most of their gains and played the best game on defensive, of any of the York men.

York won the toss choosi n g the so uth goal with the wind in their favor. Hawley kicked off for thirty-five yards. York r e turned ten, and by steady lin e pluuges they carried it to

It WllR in Ju ne, the month of o-raduat ions an<l wetl diugs - -but the r e, I am abo u t to te ll you all. The wcst bound tra i n drew up to the quaint station in the riuh litt l e educational city of Evansburg.

Two )Olmg ladies, beautiful - of co n rscand apparently wea l thy, sat in a stanhope 1iea r by and waited exvect in g ly. as the tra in topped.

"Oh the r e he is! Oh Ethel, oh, ho ld these lineR quick!"

The Katherine Mey(rs, by name, had caught sight of her Lrother Tom, for whom she waited. She fell out of the carriage, gracefully or otherwise, and soon she was in his strong atheletic :ums.

011 returning to he r companion a nd chum, Rhe iutroducec1 Mr. Tom Meyers to Miss Ethel Prentiss.

"So this is Tom." thougl1t Ethel. "To 1:n Meyers, footba ll h e r o of the cast, :111d the ta l k of all the girls, who had met hirn in Evanslrn r g."

Having introduced Mr. Tom Meyers to myriads of college gir l s-at l east Torn t h ought so -they departed for the bou e of the fraternity to whiuh Katherine and Ethel be l onged. Here an iufo r mal clJafi ng (l ish l uncheou was gi veu to Mr. Tom Meyers who felt very uncomfortable iucleed, in his sack suit, showing the effects of two day's t r avel.

When Toru was about to tl epa r t fo r the hotel, Katherine s:.iicl, "Now Ethel. you m ust he l p me show To1n a good time. He has bee11 i11 training for foot ball, bas eball and track wo r k fo r so l ong that be bas almost forgotte11 what a sister-or any l ady fo1 that mat t er-i Ii ke. \ Ve sha ll wake Ii im np, h owever."

"Oh, nev e r fear," said Ethel with a mischievous twi nk le, "l shall not l et li im go ma<l. from shere l ouesowe ness, if I can he l p it. l sha ll be ve r y bnsy the next week, however, and I may not be able to do so we ll as I should have otherwise "

So say i ng, Tom left the girls with a g r eeting, a11d a to d i ne with h is siste r at seven, at his hotel. 011 going away he wai; aecosted by an old friend, Howard Ma u e r y, whom he bad knowu at ci)llege.

"Well! we ll ! o ld ma n ," said Howa r d, "yoll! :we the last pe rson I should have thought to find here. Say, old boy , you're in luck. The Signui A lpbs have a tita.g party and a s111oker tonight.

"Only abo nt a week. The11 a 1Hl l li! hal I go home, to New York."

"What i Miss Pren Liss o·o in g t o do?" asked Howard sa r cast ically. " h e's a <leu0edly pretty gi rl. Don't, yo 11 know it:'"

"Oh she is go in g down So 11 t b. She liv es iu New O rl eans," r ep ! ied Tom.

"We ll there co m es 01 1r tally-ho. \Ve are go iu g out to the lak e th is afternoon. tlo l oug ' i\T e' ll see you late r. "

l\.atlicri n e c ame at six and then fo r t h e first time i11 a year, Tom and his s ister Kate talked tog e t !J e r. After a t im e the con versatiou turned to Ethe l.

"Yes clear s iste r" said Tom "l confess you have quite a gi rl in you r ebu n1. "

"Oh I am so g lad you tbi11k so, Torn. I tb i 11 k she is just perfectly <lear, a.ud sn ·h hair a nd eyes You always <lid lik e dark hair anyway. Not so, clear brother?"

"We ll I houl<l hardly dare say so, when I h ave such a beautiful siste r who is a blonde," sa id Tom. "l will admit however that the wlwle l'emi11ine sex i8 in<lescrib:ibly beautitiul. There, that is quite suflicient. l s it n ot?"

"O h you o ld tease. You might at l east say that Et h el is very h andso lll e, fur s h e is "

1J iss Ethel Prentiss saw n ot hin g of Mr. Tho1nas Meyers until the following day, when s he g reeted liirn as follows: "llello! I had al most begun to th ink you were l ost.

"Neve r mind now, dear, you' r e getting n ervous. Stay here quietly and I sha ll go and see J\lr. Patterson about it. He is the Dean of th e co ll ege of English, perhaps be can do !"ometh in g."

Here they them e lv es with pong, pl aye d on the long sewing tableA, and various other games whi c h w e re p laced about the room. In oue co rn e r a very attractive cosy corner was coustrncted, whi c h wa s oucupied most of the eveoiug.

After the banquet, those desiring to dance adjonrned to the home of Mist. Winnifred Tueker, where they stayed until a late hour. Those who did not care to danc3 went to room 202, where they spent the evening playing games. The class thanks Miss Tucker for her hospitality. The committee, which made the evening one of the most pleasa nt ever spent, co nsisted of Miss Flossie Erford, chai rman, Margery Richards, Geo rge Elmendorf, Harry Melick, Clark Hagen baek.

Browning Notes.

'l'he regular meeting of the Brownings was held in room 302. The members were eutertained with the following delightful prog ramme:

Tbe Sophomore-Junior foot ball game to be played this week will decide the superiority of th e Juniors aocl a larg e crowd should turn out to witness the victory.

The busin ess of tbe Parliamentary Drill was well intended but such motions as that our visitors shou ld make speeches or that the gas shou l d be lit, failed to be carried out further than the vote.

The general behavior at class meetings was c1iticised by a number of memb e rs and it is hoped that i::teps will be taken by each ind ivid ual for improving the situation.

'!'be c la ss paper was re a d and the witty jokes and or igin a l poetry were enjoyed by a ll.

A year ago, when the Interscholastic D ebate Preliminariet-i were held in the High Schoo l A udi to rium , on ly abo ut tifty people w ere present to e n co urag e the <lebators and s h o w that the debate was of some imp orta nce. This year abo u t four b uni! r ed people atte nd ed and it ce r tain ly lent g r eat enco urag e m ent to th ose w h o w!lre to contest fo r t h e hi g h h o 11 o r s. A pe r son , when he ri ses to s pe a k or debate, ca n 11 ot give up his full powers of debate unl ess a la r ge a u d ie nc e i s t h ere to li sten to him and cr itic i se him. 'rhe aud ience. that listene<l to the diffe r ent debates la st night, was one of th e large11t that has e v e r attended a hi gh sc h oo l p relimin a r y and i t is certa inly to the c r edit of the Lin co ln High Sc h oo l , that s uch interest Rhou ld b e displayed by the st ud e nt s and o uts id ers, i11 on r debating int e r ests. The Omaha prelimina ri es wi ll be held in abo u t three weeks , and Pve r y student 8h ou ld attend. and he! p swell the audience. With Mr. Bracelen coaching t h e debators , t h e debate with Omaha will be a hard uontest a nd the preliminaries fo r t hi s eve nt s h o uld be attended by evt> r y o n e,

Th (' pr e lirni11 a ri es fo r th e int e r sc h o last ic debate too k pl :we in t h e Anditorinm bst Mo11day eveu in g .

Tb e audienc e was t h e la r gest that high school debators h ave e ve r add at a prclimiuary debat e. The sc h oo l i s certai nly to be co mm e nded fo r the way in whi c h t h ey s upp o rted the clebators

Miss Lansing ancl Mr. Bigelow furnished voca l music in the ea rl y part of the eve nin g.

The jud geR fo r the debate were .Judge Hastin gs of "Vilber, Neb r as k a, a nd Professors Ross and Fogg of o ur State Unive r s it y.

The debators were then in st ru ete<l as to th e tim e of debate and the question was read to the honse. The question was:

Resolved: That t he United StateR shou ld own and operate the coa l mines of t he co untry that the Government h as a ri ght to do so.

All 8po k e very ea rne st ly and int e lligen t ly on the questio11. Aside from those secu ring places on the debate, Messrs. Scott and Elmendorf seemed, to th e writer, to have the best kn ow ledge o f t he question. MisR Wh ee ler deserves spec ia l cred it both for h e r work and a l so from the fa c t that she was the only girl o n the debate. lf one -t hird of the g irls of the sc h oo l would take t h e interest in debating that a fe w girls hav e tak e n there would be n o doubt as to t h e fu t ur e of the G. D. S. of the sc h oo l.

After the debate was iini shed the audienc e e nj oyed piano RoloR by Miss S l oss and Mr. .T o h n so n.

Th e judgeA then gave th£:ir dicision which w as that t h e iirst place had be e n awar<led to Mr. Albert L evy a nd t lw seco nd place to Mr.

Uerbard J .Mogen.

After a short talk by Mr. Levy the audience repaired themselves to their respective domi c iles, Pach feeling that hi s tim e had been well spent. H W Y.

vV hen school op e n ed this fall pr ospects for a champiouship team were not ve ry brilliant. Masou , Barwi c k and Munn of the '01 team wer e th e only old m e n back. C apt. Kimmel had not returned to s chool, Dr. Condra had left the high scho o l, everything looked blne and ever y body felt blu e

Uapt. Kimmel retumed in time to go in the game against th e University of Nebraska. He was not in good condition having just recovered from a severe illness. He didn't get into shape until the middle of O c tober. Munn was comp elled to go out of almost every gam e on ac c ount of a la c k of condition. He took i;ick just b efore the s econd Omaha game and played no more th e r est of the sea.sou. About the same time My e rs took sick and was not seen in uniform again this season. Myers absen ce caused a shifting in th e lin e , Mason going to tackl e and Cosner taking .Mason ' s place at end. B esides this we only had a coa c h for about ten week s.

Then th e schedule was a hard one but was a o-ood one and r eflects credit upon the manager , 0 Mr. J. G M a son.

Of these men, Mason, Myers, Gt'one, Sau lt s, Barwick, Cosne r , Avery, 'l'app, RenyolclR and J. :Munn, will return 11ext yea r

. .f ohnsou, Mun11, Drain, Kimmel and Hawley may come baek as they do uot g l' acl nat e a 1ul are still eligib le under the i11tersohola tic rules. Hawley was probably the best ground gainer 011 the team. Mason was the best end in the state while Barwick at quarter was al ways r cliab lC'. These three were the stal's of the te:im.

It wa · the lightest teaDL that the hi gh school t>ver t urn ed out, and it also had t h e best tt>am work of any team the High Schoo l haR produced. It never played a team the whole seaso11 but what o u tweighed it.

-. It was a team <:omposed of boys from the L. H. :::; , who we re goo<l stucleu tR, some of them bei n g bri lli ant ones. They were athc letes and above everyth i11g clf'e they wet'e gent lemen.

In the Daily i::ltar of i::lMnrday, November :U11d, there appears an article 0 11 :l\ebraska record fol' thi yea r. The following is a11 extr:wt from that a r ticle:

"The tirst game of the st>ason ,,·ith the High i::lchool did not tend i11 any manner to incl'easc the confideuce in the team The was :60 to 0 . It was t'cgardecl as a ve r y weak show in g inasmuch as the High Schoo l has the poorest team turned o ur from t h at i11 Rt itn t ion in several yea r R."

lt may be true that LiuC'o ln a weak team but it has shown itself to be s up erior to a n y

High Hchool o rg an izatiou in "N" eb r aRka. 'i n ee '!J\J, when Li11eoln ha<l a team of r ecord b r eakers, no Li11co ln team ev e r defeated Omaha on Omaha's gro nncl s. The '02 team has done that an.cl she a l so rnn np the largest score that any Lincoln team eve r run up on their o ld time ri valR.

'he a l so clefeatrcl York by a sco r e of 11 to 5 which was next to the la r gest ever rnn up ag:i} ,\ns t ·Y In 1899 1he sco r e being 17-.5. Linq,oh1 had the serv ices of a coach fol' on l y a littl e over two weeks. She 0 11l y bad three o ld ,players on the team. The rest being new men playing first yea r on a n y High Sc h oo l team.

Then he held Des Moines, Iowa, down to a scoTe of,) to 0. When it is taken into co11that Des Moines is the champ ion of Iowa, that they have nine men on their team who have played the same po itions of that same team fo r three yea r s, t hat they have a sa la ri ed coach a nd a trainiug table, the r esult ' seems on ly the more remarkable.

There wn,i; but one thing t ha t marred the Ath letic Carnival at th e Auditorium \a.s Friday <:'VC'ning a11u that was tbe fighti11g ofstw1 e nts over class co l or., which l eau to the re111oviuo- of th e se co l ors before the carnival was balf over. In evE>ry other way the u:un ival was a C"ompl e te i:;uecess, anu it is on ly to b r C' grettN1 that the class rivalry rorn to such a height. Hut to cverythiug t!Jere is a begiu11i11g and if the student · uan prevent the sta r t tbcn the rest will never occur. If a stuL1c nt in ist. on starting a vlas quarrel, the other srndei1ts o f his elaF<s should bold l1irn in co ntempt an<1 (10 th e ir be t to rC'.-;trai n hi 111 and 11 e Yer for :L min11t e t r y to nrge him 011.

Tlw next pve11t which the of th e sehool sh o ul<1 try and aro use ,.;ome i11terest in is the Boyr-;' Athleti c Carn ival which comes off March 1 The boys worked hard t.o help

the girls, atHl the gi rls in turn shou ld t ry and help the boys. The G irl s' Athletic Carnival was a suceeRs and it is hoped that tb e boys ' will he

Subscrib e r s who ha ve not paid up their snhs c ription s sho uld s e e to it that t11ey ar e paid np as soon as possibl e. Every yea r a great deal of work is caused by the fai I u r e of AnYO C ATE subscribers to pay up their s u bscriptions and this would never hav e to be go ne through witb if each subscriber would only pay hi s ub sc ription without his having to be hunted c10wn and then asked for it Please pay without being asked.

Those who attended the carnival probably observeJ the co ndu ct of one of the trying to arouse the ire of auothn of the elass e which r esu lt ed iu a c lass fracas. \Ve can n ot say that the whole c lass was to blanie, for in evf'ry c la ss there are members wh o do uot co 11Juct Lhemselve>l in a way whieb would Jo justice to the c lass, but we do say that it i tlrn duty of the c lass to try a11cl prevent such conduct if thPy possibly ca n.

T he E nd of the Day 1I

Only an extremely pa r tial observer conld have found much to recommend Oakdale. The little Southern town was a11 out-of-the-way place whose chief excuse for existence lay in the mllls owned aDd controlled by Judge Arnott, one of the leading citizens. Now that these had ehut down on account of the strike, the whole place bad an especially forlorn and deserted look.

Dick Hamilton, leaning agaiust the weather beaten side of the littl e station, was heartily sick of it all. The mood was not a new one, however. As he waited, sometimefi indifferently an<l again impatieutly fo r the eight-thirty traiu that was to take him away, bis mind involuntarily reca,lled simi l ar situations 'l'bere had been the time when his uncle iu Ohio had died, and he had left with relief a business whose routine had already wearied him. After that, he had made his way to New Yo r k and served an apprenticeship on one of the big dailies, from which he bad been in the course of a few months There had followed years of wandt>riug, sometimes in the guise of newspaper work, sometimes a mere wild -goose chase, wherever the lust for adveDture carried him and he could pay or work his way.

Those y :.;ars had left their mark upou him. TL1e whimsical, roviDg life, without purpose or reckouing; the half-hearted effort aDd halfhearted disgust at defeat; the repeated contact with eynical, world ly men and women, none too good - all these could be traced in the cold, bored eyes and hardened face, the slightly lltooping !!honlders and indeRcribably careless tlress.

As for this last v e nture-t h e com111issio11 of a

from time to time, and finally succeeded in producing open warfa r e betweea the obstinate old Jndge aDd his employees.

. Ou. the whole, Hamilton was scarcely proud of his work; neither was his depa r ture made more pleasant by the knowledge that Judge Arnott despised him and the other mill bands regarded him with suspicion and hatred as a smooth -tongued mischief-maker He would be glad when be was well out of it; beyond that he bad no plan or intent

His revery was intennpted by the station agent, w!J.o emerged from the little b 11 ild i 11 o"' and scanned the track peevishly .

"'l'he six fifty-five's late agai 11 tonight," he complained. '•You can't never tell about them trains anyhow, 'ceptin' they're always late."

Then in rtsponee t.o his listener's "No, your train don't get in t i ll after that. I don't know when that'll be. I guess I'll go get my e:upper now," Ile proceeded lockiug door. "1 don't much care ahout coming back, either. They say the st r ikers'll be down tonight, after awhile. They' r e looking for a message or something for the Ju<lge, ancl then' may be trou b lc."

Receiving 110 responAe to his remarks, he departed up the street, ancl there was si lence agaiD, broken presently by the whistle of [L t r a i 11.

Recently in the Exchange column of a paper which i s publish ed once a month by a Hi gh School in Southern Ca liforni a, appea r ed a c riti c i sm in which i t was aid Lhat the Ao"VoCATE was too much of a weekly newspaper, instead of a magazine. Th e Ao1"0 CATE i s not and never macle any preLentions to be a magazin e, bL1t l.ia a l ways attempted to give a ll th e news and at Lhe same t im e take in s h ort sto ri es so as to make Lhc pape r comp lete iu a ll bran c hes. And it is not to our discredit tLat the ADVO CATE is a we e kl y high school n ewpaper. That's what we want it to be. If any one ·uesircs to read a magazin e, Jet the m read Munsey o r McClures, they conta in articles wh i ch a r e by far more in ter<.'sti n g than anything the AnYO CATE cou l d publish in this lin e because the writers are more exper i e n ced. But Munsey or McClures doesn't co nta in the high school news, which sho uld be by far m o r e interesting to every student and for thi s r eason we mnst say , "Let the high sc ho o l paper pnb1i sh the newR."

This morning the students of the High School bad the pleasure of listening to a most excellent musica l performance by a juvenile orchestra. The playing was all the more enjoyable because of the youthfulness of the players. Ellery Davis is certainly to be congratulated for bis musical ability, and also on belonging to such a talented family. Do it ,

G. D. S. Notes

Last wed11esday the Girls' Debatiug Society - some of the girls-met to hold the meeting and debate which had b een postponed from the regul a r time a week b efo re. All the girls kuew th e debate bad beeu postµoned and was to be h e ld W ed nesday, but only about half a dozen ca me to the m eet ing at all.

We know it is more pleasant to the average to go out of doors, or do nothing th ese warm days, but when th e re's something else to do, we ought to do it. Jf the G. D. S. su1'vives, it will be because of the v e ry natur e of the club, and not from the support it has a t pres e nt. Some of th e girls don' t seem to 1·ernember that such an organization ever existed. W e are sorry to note that the Senior girls, who would be e xpe c ted to do the beRt work in this lin e, are the ones who 11 eg lect it m os t of a ll. 'l'he younger Jl1ember s see m : o hav e m o re interest in the society thau the older o n es

Now, th e re will be only three or four deb ates th if< year, a nd w e hope the girls wil 1 al I co m e and make these mor e interesting. Th e r eg ular me e ting will b e held tonight and w e want <'ach m e mber to hav e so methrng to sa y.

The Sophomores are organizing a base ball team and w e will soon s how that" W e're th e whole thing, \\T c' re alive, \\ "e' re the class of 1905."

Junior Notes.

The class of '0 4 h e ld their regular m eet ing in room 204 Friday after the 7th period.

A uumber of the members of the class e ntered into th e discu ss ion of the chapel cli!,turb· ance of a few weeks back and although 1rn effectual steps ca n b e taken in the matter, it has by no n ea us beeD forgotten.

An acknowledgement of the flower s sent 111 b e half of the class to the memory of Grace Fulton, was re,:ei ved from th e family au cl read at the class m eet ing. It will be kept among the treasures of the c lass and cherished with the memory of our former c lassmate and friend.

The Pin committee reported that they would send in an order for pins as soon as the m e m· bers paid the requir ed amount in advance. Pay up at once if you wish to get a pin with the l lrst order.

All except th e Social committee have shown th e results of their labor - let us not look iu for another of OLLr enjoyable c lass parties.

Senior Notes.

Th e Seniors met iu room 204 last Friday, Miss Louise Alexander the viee pr e1:1iding in th e plaee of Edwin Boehmer, who w as absent.

The g irltl of the c lass regii:it e red a complaint against the committee that had c!.iarge of getting tire i:;al e priees 011 c lothing and dre ss goods, uec a use tue committee is co mpo se d of boys , who ouly tried to get r ed uc tion 011 boys' cloth es. The girls want reduction also, so the matter wa s compromised by appointing two girls 011 the committee. vV e hope that a report will be given at our n ex t m eet ing that will h e satisfactory to all.

Girls' A htletic Notes

'fhe four clssses have good basket ball teams and are all prepared for the aouual tournament to take place next Fri(lay afternoon at 3:30. The Freshmen aud Sophomores will play one half, the J uoiors and Seniors will play a half, then the final half between the Freshmen and Sophomores and the last half between the Juniors and Seniors. The two winning teams will then play. This is sure to be interesting ad the two victorious teams will no doubt be very well matched. Every one who can possibly come should be one of the 250 who can be accomodated. There will only be 250 tickets sold and they can be obtaiued from the gymnasium girls at ten and 1ifteeu ceJJts. The Freshmen have a very good team for the short time they Jiave beeu i11 the High School. The Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors will Le quite evenly matched. The lineups for the teams are:

A sma ll preliminary was held last night in several of the rooms. Some new men are showing up that bid fair to become fine additions to the track team.

T h e date fo r the Colo rado p r ings debate has been set fo r May 13. Although this is an uu l ucky date , yet is hoped that a large crowd will be p resent in spite of the number 13.

The track team is coming along fiue. From the o u t l ook at present the Lincoln H igh School will be in the Missouri Valley meet, with a st.rong force of athlet.es to npbold her honor.

The Seniors have <lecided upon May 15th for the date of their party. Ev1 ry one in the schoo l is invited, so you had better ask her now an<1 be ready. It will be he ld at Walsh Hall, and the music will be furnished by Quick's oruhestrn.

There is iL rumor floati11g around that the Senior boys are to Le roaRted i11 the Junior p lay. Poor Seniors; what have they <lo ne to deserve such treatmeut:' Have µity o n thern, 0, benevo l e n t Junio r s. Don't be too hars h .

to be hoped tha.t the students will take an equal interest in the coming junior play. In giving these playis, the class giving one, does not it so much for tbe money in it, as this is of minor importance , but they give it because they wish to show the publi c just what ability they have for gettrng up plays and everyone should show that their efforts have been appreciated by attending.

On iiext Monday the report ca rds will come ont and the next month will be the only time in which tbe students will have a c han ce to make up for what tbey have lost in the early part of the semester by 11ot stndying. This means bard work for a great ma11y. Of co urse no student ca n expect to co me ont as well at the e nd of the year if be has uot studied, as if be bad studied, but h e ca 11 do something toward recleerniug himself for bis early n eg le ct of lessons! Many in starting in on a semester have in mind the i<lea that tbey can m a ke up Lheir work at the end of the semeste r all right, but wbeu t.he e nd of the Reme8ter eo m eS , they find OUt that they hav e no easy work 011 baud. But if such haEt been the case it would be better to work bard from now on and at least get a littl e benefit of the semester's work.

The !schools that have entered contestants in this meet are the following high schools of the Missouri Valley; Central and Manual Training of Kansas City, Springfield ancl St. .Joseph, Mo. Ft. Scott, Topeka and Effingham, Kans., West Des Moines, Iowa, and Lincoln, Neb.

There are many reasons why every pupil in the Lincoln high school should see this meet, first, because nothing of this kind has ever been held in Lincoln in the past; second, because it will be many yearf'! before anything of the kind will be held here again; thircl, yeur presence will assist the boys in winning the championship as they have done twice out of the three times in the past; fourth, many of you will want to enter these events in the future and you want to see how it is done now; lastly, it is your duty to a&sist in upholding the 1·eputation of the Lincoln high school.

Junior Notes

There was no meeting -of the Junior cl as>; lield last Friday, undoubtedly because there was not a u fficient number present. Juniors yo11 must awaken some enthusiasm for this week at least. Surely you are interested in your own Class P lay, which we are determined shall be the best ever presented by a High School Class, and in the great Missouri Va ll ey mePt the greatest ath l etic event that has ever been held in Lincoln. If so,give your support to those who a re trying to make both of these eventf-1 successful.

Everyone should realize how impo rtant this meet is to your own school and your first thought and hope should be that the Lincoln H i gh School shall come out with first honors among a lm ost four hundred conteetants i n ·the adjoining states. ClasE spi ri t should not be lacking but its place comes eecond to the school itself. We wi sh to see as many of the boys as possible in our class to win places, and the cl:1ss as a whole should eupport them in thei r efforts and hope for their success. Speak to them in dividually letting them know yon a r e interested and on Saturday let them hear one o ld class yell as well tbe "L. H. S." in unison. On Saturday evening our play, a bu rl esque

on " The Merchant of Venice" will be r epeated in honor of our v i s itin g schools for whom probably our best seats will be r eserved. Howeve r, there will be quite a number of seats on sale for Satu rd ay and we wish as many of the stndents as possible to be p r esent then if they wish to witness the p resenta ti on of the medals t o the victors of the various events of the meet held in the afternoou.

Reserve you r seats for F rid ay 01· Sat urd ay night and let us fill the o ld Auitorium of our school.

Do not miss the Meet Saturday afternoon. It is of mo r e vital importance then the attendance should be of the best at this Meet than at and Foot Ball, Base Ball o r Basket Ball game or any c lass play ever g iv en here under the supervis ion of the L. H S, Lincolnian Notes.

The Captain's Report.

We have a team this year in which we are fairly strong in all tbi1·teen events and yet we cannot say that we have a :;itar in any of them. The bad weather and the lack of decent training grounds have interfered somewhat with our training bt1t in spite of all this, as the fat eful day draws nearer the boys are becoming confident It is easy to understand why this is. As a fellow begins to round into shape and find out what he is able to do it gives him confidence in himself and at the same time it gives him confidence in the others. I can not say we are going to win next Saturday's meet but I will say thatwhatever the result of the meet is, we will have a team upon the grounds that will be worthy the school's support and we expect to be supported by them.

Lincoln and IJincoln High School will be on exhibition Saturday. One of the reasons as given in executive meeting l ast year at St. J osepb, for desiring to come t;o Lincoln was that they wished to see our town and school. We have sent champion track teams down to Miesouri for the last th r ee years and they now want to see the school that is capab l e of putting out &uch teams.

Dr. Condra and Harry Hawley were in the flxecutive meeting at the time that this motion was made. Both spoke against i t. Dr. Condra sa irl be was not sure that he would be with us this year and Hawley told them that without Condra he did not think we could give them a successful meet. Perhaps Harry was right. The boys thought differently and Mercer and I have made the attempt to sett l e the business side of the meet. It remains with the school to show whether ou r confidence was misplaced o r not.

Prof. Jordan of St. Joseph is trying to get reduced rates on the railroads and if he succeeds be is goiug to bring a large · cro wcl from that place If there's any i:iporting blood in the high schoo l it ought to show it. We can't let those people come up here with the awowell purpose of having us show bow we "do things" and then beat us at ou r own game, while here. I'll auswer for ou r team if the school will clo it's part. F. M

Defenders of the Red and Black (M.iss Towne.)

The evo lution of athletics in the high school has been a thing of int e re st to all con n ee;ted with the institution. At times arrested, there has been, on the whole, a rapid a nd continuoul:l g r owth, Should one attempt to explain the cause of the rapid strilles of athletics in detail it woule take some time, but in a word, it is clue to enthusias m. Enthusiasm h as a lw ays character ized eve ry movement in at hl etics in the high school, enthusiasm on the part pf faculty and sturlents a lik e. To see the high school at 'its best, one must see it in the joyous, vigorous, active preperation for a coming ath letic event No mean, paltry ambition fashious the eud, but a desire to do tbe beBt and to procure the best for the cka r o ld L. H. S.

Coupled with this well directed enthusiasm there bas a lwa ys been a unity which has. brought about such marked results that it has been r epeated ly remarked by citizens that whatever the high schoo l attempts, it

Certainly there cou ld be 110 better recogn ition of the vigor of athletics in our school than the selection of Lincolu by the Misl:louri Valley Athletic AsRociation for the co ming at hleti c meet. It is now ou r turn to e nt erta in the visiting delegations as enthusiastically as we have contested for place in the past. And let there be the same unity of effo rt that bas been so marked. Let every loya l high schoo l student do his part. Cou rt esy and conside r ation on tl}e part of eve r y student is what will bring us new laur els iu our Saturday meet. And as for ou r boys, we know they will do their part to win.

Our victories in thb past give us reasouable assurance of victory in thi8 meet. It is with no sma ll degree of pride that we poiut to tb e trophies in our cases, the banners won, and, most of all. the strong, manly at hl eteR that have goue out from L. 11.

hook her fist at an imaginary Caleb Powers.

·'If he is so meau that she cannot !"tay at home, he must be t.e rrible," said Harry, much am used at the manner in which she showed h er hate .

"That he is s ir," she r e plied, "an<l furthermore he haR gone to New York and fell in love with a woman, so the postmaster sai<l, and May doesn't know it yet. When he brings her here like as not he'll turn poor May out of honse and home. It's a shame."

Jack Aet out soon after to tak e a look at the Powers' residence, leaving Harry to listen to their hostesses' goseip. He found it to be a l arge, elegant residence, three stories high, and after taking a photograph of it returned to find Harry still listening to a biography of all the v. illagers. He was about to question her further concerning Mr. Powers, when the door was hurt'!t open <.ind in rushed a girl, her hair all awry and so excited that she could hardly speak. In her hand she held an open letter which was evidently the canse of her excitement.

•·Oh Betty!" she exclaimed, "he's corning"-at ibis moment she discovered the young men and her confusion and embarassment was amusing. She quickly began to stammer an apology when Jack arose.

"No apology is necessary miss, we are strangers here apd of conrse snrprised you," he begau, but Betty interferred and introduced the intruder who proved, to Jack's surprise to be May Powers. After a few moments conversation she finished what she bad started to say when she hacl entered so abruptly. It was to th e effect that her father would be home in a few days and he would bring with him a Miss Jordan , whom be intended to marry i;oou after.

" Then you will have a step-mother," Jack ventured to eay, '"and you know the old story about them. "

She laughed prettily, "Oh! I guess I'm big enough to look out for myself. I don ' t think I shall consent to come under her authority at all." But after the young men went away h e r manner changed, she burst into sobs and as took her in her arms ancl comforted her the -best she co uld. Ever li er

moth e r died May had b ee n i11 th<' habit uf coming to this ki11d and c< 11tidi11g- to her all her sorrows and j(lys. In fa ct she had grown to look upon Betty as a daughter to her moth e r and this f ee ling was returned readily by her co mfort e r.

C HAPTER 11.

'l'bat same eve11i11g May sat i11 the spacious sitti11g room of her resi1le11 ce, to stories told by Horatius Gormau, a, 111a11 who had work e d for her step-father since tbe da y her mother had <lied. He bad been e ngaged by Mr. Powers that morning, ana going jnto the house he bad found Mrs. P o w e rs lying on th e floor of the drawing room, her face iu the fire-place, hurded to a crisp. May had grown to like this gruff but honest specimen of manhood, although she had bPen frightened when he had come May wa -, only sixteen then, and wai;; 1·ather frightened at the rough mein and aspects of Horatius; but he was so kind that she soon grew to like him far better than her step-father, who hatl notbi11g but harsh for her.

This night they wer e c hatting togeth e r whe11 she spoke of the young men she had seen at Betty's. 'rhe mention of them brought ruemories of olden times back to his mind, and noting his far-away look, May at once supposed that he was thinking of his past life. Nestling on the floor besid e hi13 chair, she said:

"Tell me of your life, Horatius, surely yon were once a happy young man like Mr. Wi11cbester or Mr. Benson , weren't you?"

"Yes", he answered slowly, "l was vouug and happy once, but 11ow -" and he tumed away to hide his bitter sorrow.

"Please t e ll me about it", she plenderl, "I would so much like to hear it."

After a pause he proceeded as if talking to himself. "Yes, I once was young and happy; but the years have sped by l eav ing scars of battles both mental and real, of sorrows and starvation. I was left an orphau when fi fteeu and was thrown upon the mercies of a world which I found out afterward to be cold aDd ungrat e ful I wa8 poor. With a little money in my pocket it was all right, the people welcomed me , but when it was goDe, the same oues turned me out whether it was co ld or not ."

Patrick Laverty, Am.

'VbP :1 we w<·re Rett led comfortab l y around the sto r e one e Ycni 11 g, the o ld nrnu broke Lhe si l ence by saying, "Didn't I ever tell you about Patrick Laverty?" With a u ocl of pm·missiou and a glanee of previous apprec iation, we sett l ed ourselves for it.

"A druuk man, you know, is often revolting, but sometimes amus in g. When I was helping build the U. P., yea r s ago, the g "1ng I workPd iu was dependent on a camp fo r food and shelte r , we had as cook a goodbearteJ man ca ll ed Pat Laverty. Pat was an Americanized Irishman, and a11 awful good cook, but fond of 'skee', and a lway s managed to get it, while we fellows went dry. The on l y other person in camp was the man who took care of the horses, chopped wood, etc.

One aftemoon we got through a little l ate r t ba11 usual, a ud as we rod e up, we gave a yell to let the cook know we were coming, so he cou ld put the g rub on the table. But, different from usual, the cook did not come to the door to greet us. We were suspeutin' in a moment, for the camp-man had been to town the day before. Two of us crept to the door, and lookin' in. saw a pair of heels sticking out from behind the r o lled-up bed . AR soon as we made any noise the cook waked up, tottered a little, then says: "morn in , ge1Jtlemin", in his mmal way. We all lo oked kind o' ser iou s, for we was mighty bungry, and no s ign of suppe r. "l hurt (hie) my ankle, and thought I'd lay dow n a while", he exp l ained to the boss.

He had been mixing pie dough and now proueeded. We a ll 1Sat r ound and watehed him put a tomato can full of sugar in the dt>ugh, an<l a haudful of cinnamo n in the fillin'. Finally, see in' there was no chance for suppe r , t h e boss sta r ted to get it himself, while us boys helped a lit t le and searched for the cook's jug We found two half-gallon jugs buried, each about two-t hird s empty Then the cook offered us a drink out of his boLt le, but we was too sore to drink. About this time we misRed the camp-man. He came back the n ext mornin' after spe nclin ' the night hnntin' h orses (which bad got looRe?) lle was awful s urpris ed to hear abo ut the coo k \V"heu we had got set down to supper , the

began to get the true Amflrican ind epende u t sp irit. He s:.1ys, "No w you fel lers (h ie) lrn ow I a i nt dh rnuk I kin spi ll mn n;trn e (hie) jest ez good ez enny of yez", be says . "P-a-t pat, r-i-c-k, ri ck (hie) L -a-v, lav, e- r -t-y, e r ty, (hie) there." Just then he frll :igio the stove, an] had to have a fresh mess of kraut, but be went on: "Now you felle r R know I niver waz dbrunk and niver will be. I kin dhrink a gallon without (hie) n o ti c in' it, (we be li eved it) and here you felle r s have insulted me by (hie) te llin' me I was dhrunk. I've been yer slaves (at $60 a mouth) ez long (hie) ez I'm goin' to be." Here, in taki ng off his aprou, h e spi ll ed a cup of hot coffee on bis leg, but didn't noti ce it. "And what's more, I don't give a whoop (hie) if I niver work an ither clay in me life."

' You know the way to town", sa id the boss quietly.

"Yes, and I'll (hie) have a hundred and a-aty dollars wurth of drinks on meself too."

The next morning when the sponge ro.lled down the road with steam up, generated by fire -water, there wasn't a drop of that precious fluid in camp."

Father (trying to r ead) :-Whats that terrible ra e ket in the ball?

this Shakespearean class i c, from their maDner of sustaining the historic parts throughout. This in conjunctiou with the modern bu rl esque of Foot Ball spirit, rendered the sceucs as uniqne as they we r e surp ri sing to the delighteJ audience.

Sflldom do novices before the foot- li ghts all acqnit themselves so creditab l y. But, in this idstan ce , they truly proved themselves a galaxy of stars.

Miss Roberts, starr ing as Portia, exce l led in her fine delineation of the rich heiress.

Miss Mossie Kimme l charm i ngly pe r sonated friend - the graceful Nerissa

Miss Donavan, as the beautiful Jessica, ward of Shylock, won the hearts of all through her happy escape by e l opement with Antonio from her luxurious borne of tyranny.

Miss Bard well's portrayal of Miss Allie Trudice, the sharp d ignified teacl1e r , was true to life.

Miss Stambaugh in her dual roll of "Pol ly", servant to Portia, and the generous Trish mother of Launcelot, was a success.

Shylock, the rich gambler, was ably personated by Leonard Barwick. His varied and difficult roles winning much merito r ious comment.

Edward Elmendorf as Tuba l , Shylock's fr i end, also acquitted himse l f well, while Charles McLaughlin, Lau11ce l ot Gobbo, .t,he clownish servant of Shylock, became through his fine acting, a favorite.

Hugo Birkner was a hit as the Duke of Venice, when seated on the th r one of jnstice .

The illust r ious trio, Antonio, Bassanio and Grntiano, were finely rep r esented, respectively by Messrs. Rainbolt, Avery and Bigelow. Their rich costumes and courtly mann e rs rendering them deservedly popular.

The learned professor, personatecl by Roy Crooks, and the faithful policeman by Trago Mc Williams, together witb other office rs, football rooters, etc., comp leted the gay caste of c haracters.

This Shakespearean drama, in its five acts, gave oppo r tu n ity fo r bri ll iant costuming aDd e l aborate stage settings. The scenes of the rooms of Antonio's and Portio's homes were magnifieeut. Wh il e the scene of Shy loek's house and grounds-as viewed unde r a soft light was enchanting.

The wo r k from "behind -the-seenes," a lthough invisib le, was fe l t throughout. Eflic ieut traiui ug ExquiAit e taste. Maste r lllin<ls Will in g bands Loving hea r ts.

Much p raise is due the Stage lVlanager,L. M Kimmel, aud his faithfu l helpe r s, Mess r s. Decker, Ing l es and others. A l so the young ladies, Mi8ses Denny and Anthony, for d i scoursing the sweetest music during the interva!E of sh if ting the scenery.

The Myster i ous Upper Story (Continu ed )

"After three yea r s of this kind of life I seured a job with a cirCLIS. At first I was on l y a flunky, and many the jeers iind jibes I received at tbe hands of my fo l low showman aD<l I had to tight my way through in orde r not to be molested. As time went on I began to pract i ce in the ring whenever I had a few moments to spare. Being natually quick of limb, I soon was able to make flying leaps th r ough the a ir to an oppos i te suspendeJ bar, or to anothe r acrobat, as wel 1 as some of the o lder showman, and they often de<.:lared that I equalled them in sk i11 and da ri ng."

I did my best a nd made the fly i ng leap amid iutense s il eDce. But no sooner had I grasped the bar and was safe that the tent rang with applause and shouts of Bravo!

"While passing into the dressing t e nt amid tbe cong ratulations of the ringmaster aud managers I caught a gleam of admiration i n the eyes of Ethel Sydney,known in the ring as Mlle. Tourni who was drawn to the top of tbe tent and prefo r med in midan on the trapeze. She was just leaviug the tent to do her act and her l ook of admiration sent a thrill through me."

"Hurriedly changing my co tnme I went into the big tent to watch her performance when I noticed with horro r that near the bar, one of the ropes was hanging by what seemed a thread. Quickly notifying the ringmaster of this I ran into the r i ng to warn he r of her dange r and arrived there none too soon for with a snap it gave way and she shot downward amid the horrified shrieks of the spectators. Qnick as a thongbt I opened my a r ms and caught her but the force of her fall bore me to the ground.

I remember nothing that happened afterward until I opened my eyes and found my11elf in the dressing tent with an anxious crowd of show people around me. A physician was bending over me and Mademoise ll e was bathing my forehead with ice water. I t r ied to rise but found my leg was broken and elapsed again into unconciousne1<s. When I again awoke I found myself in a hospital wher e I bad lain for two weeks with brain fever, hovering bf'tween life and death. In a few months I was able to walk a little and left the hospital as soon as possible. In the meantime I had married Mademoiselle who had given up her posiitiou to take care of me which she did fa ithfully. But as my leg was still weak I co uld not join the show and that is why I l imp today."

The High Sehool Opera, under th e dire c tion of Profel'lsor Sheetz, is in full progress. On the 29t h of May , the liigh School talent will be di s played in the Comic Opera, -" Princess Phos a." Th e High School is entirely to o small and the scene r y and other necessiti es are insufficient but the Oliver Th e atr e bas been engaged for the 29th aud other arrangmeuts are being made.

"Princess Phosa" as we believe and as have been informed by a number of outsiders will be the heaviest and the most difficult opera eve r given by any High Sehool any place, but the specials are working hard and the c horuses have been at work, and will be pra c ticing nearly every afternoon from now on. This together with the ab l e leadership of Prof. and Mrs. Sheetz. promises to mak e the opera an unequalled sucess.

The fin e costumes, and the thrilling manner of working out of a delightful plot, and the ri ch jokes and mod e rn hits will b e exerting and entertaining.

If you saw " King Dodo" and liked it , you

will enjoy t hi s folly as we ll :ilthongh th e rc was mu e h m o r e lo that, but eome and U, lark H age nbu c h as "Ki ng Mimos" aud en jo y a seco nd "Ki ng Dodo".

Tickets will soo n be on sale by all the playe rs aud you sho uld buy thern, or reserved sea t A. and some of you, boxes quick anti w e will promise you a good tim e. Mor e-o ve r, the student body should push t hi s eve nt as a High School int e r es t b ec aus e it involves heavy e xpenses, and financial failure means a bad memory and nam e for the schoo l. Rem e mber the date May 29th Oliver Theatre " Princess Phosa" will surpass e ven the junior play .

It is , I am told, imperative in prefacing an article of this nature that oue shou ld submit to the painful pub li c gaze, h e r qua lifica tion s to speak to o r r ather write uµon, a subje c t, which demand s not only great e xp e rien ce in th e world's affa ir s, but also a <lelicacy so seldom a constitu e nt in the characte r so worldly wise an individual. Although it is true, it must be co nfessed that I have not in the capac ity of young man won a youug lady's h ea rt, nor as a young lady played the more passive part of b e ing won. I hav e as a ca lm and unprejudiced spectator, and scientific investigator, observed many cases , some of a serious aspect, othe rs of a less threatening, and more temporary nature, the latter a re , I believe, commonly termed, flirtation. Of my lit e r a ry q11alifications I need not speak at l e ngth. It is more than sufficient to state that my writings hav e often appeared in the Ladies' H o me Journal, and more modest effo rt s hav e occasional l y bee n printeil in the ADVO CA TE.

ject li:tviug been 111iani111ously gra11ted, l will proceed to the heart of the treatise. It is my purpose to co rr dcuse the result of my obse r vations into the form of reasonable and wholesome a<lvice. Number one (1) d:::als w i• b the se lectiou of girls, 11umber two (2), three (3), and four (4) with dress, manrrers, and condnct for ball-room and parlor. These maurrers with qualifications may also be used out-doors.

( l.) IL were well when a young man casts his eye, about in search of a p r oper object of his affect.ions, to choose a young 1:.i.dy s.everal vPars his jurrior, for then shou ld he make a break, the t.errdency of the young lady is to look upon his uristake with respect and iruagine she will understand his motive, when she is older. These are the only possible directions to give under this caption, as his choice wi ll be g 0ve rned by impulse rather than reason.

(2.) The choice haviug been made, the aspirant shou ld undergo a rigid course iu physica l cultu r e. This beillg accomp li shed the aspirant should undergo a seven' col111rn in physic:tl training. The object of this course is not much to prepare the willing victim for the athlet ic tield as to harden his constitution that he may endure fatigue and hardship. For, a lthough the girls Ii ke athletes better than boys of average intelligence, it is only nec essa ry that yoL1 should be stronger in order to more readily and r eg ularly dance attendance . (3.) An exact care for the appearance of the c lothing and person is all advantage, but if the appea.ra11ce of oue of these must be n egl ec ted let it be uot that of clothing. In the choice of cloth in g, garments loud rather than ucat are to li e preferred. Iu order to procure such garments you should visit the clothing stores early in the spring, for the barbe r s at the firHt flay, buy all the suits with yellow cotton k11ots in them.

To prepare you r self for co nversation in any place and upon all occasions, attell<l all fairly reputable shows that pass through the town. Quotations from these p l ays fit in everywhere, and the system is not expensive if you sit near the ceil in g.

To be all entertainer iu the beF!t sense of the word, you must be able .. to sing . It is not necessary to remember aught but the words,

as liy proclu c ing a volume of sound you can collceal the omission of tune. To be truly popular, a young rnau must also danc e. lf h e does not danc e w e ll, I would adv ise hi111 to attend on ly crowded dance8, wh e r e h e ca n't fa ll down if he wants to, ant! wlrel"c 11 0 011e cau see what he is doing with hiis feet.

Phlogiston Notes

Owing to the fact tha.t th e r e waR n o dt)bate posted, last Friday's m eet in g of t h e Phlog1stons was indefinitely postpo11e<l. The soc iety has long be.en noted for having m ee ting s io<lefiuitely postponed as most of it s m e mbers are hanl working Selliors who h a ve uo time for such frivolity_

The uext Sat11rday the debate will b e impromptu. The q uestioll is: Resolved that coed ucatiou iu sta t e universities iR d e trimental t o the student body. It is to be hoped that the Phlogistons will not live up to the reputation they have lately gained.

Athletics

Tbe M. V. I. A. A. track meet is a thing of the past, as far as this year is conoerned, and the "tale" has bee n told. It is needless to say how proud we are of our star rnnn e r Burruss a nd of our other boys who worked so valiantly and well for the honor of th e r ed aud black. We mmit give our support, now, and o ur encourageruen t to tbe bas e bfl!l boys, not enough school e nthusi:oililm has been shown in regard s ti.tern. So, now girl s, lets not put enthu· iliasm away with our co](}rs to wait for the foot ball games in the fall but get out and encourage the base ball boys a bit.

Base ball is a great ga me and one not har<l to understand se get your big brother, or it gene rally is the smaller brother that knows all about it, to tell you the in s and outs of the game and when Capt. Fields and his men trot out ou the diamond the 23nl l e t us all be on halld to help cheer them on to victo r y.

Bat while Spooks was a quit town, her people were not id le , ignorant and sup e r stit ious. They were on the co ntr a r y, rarely int elligent, energetic, euough to liv e in comfo rt. Aud a not unusual co11d i tivn i11 a New England town, the j11dge, justice of th e peace, lawye r and .d ea c on combined, led the vilhg e iu peaceful pursuits. Judge North was a cleservecl ly ]JOpnlar 1n ;1 11 lJoth, because h e wa a j o lly good hearted ne ighbor, anll because he wae an ab le man. Many haJ wondere<l why 1he judg e bad 11(.)\'('r i::oug ht a uette r market for bis m e 11 t ·tl ware8, for but few remembered the day, uine yea r s l>efore the t im e of o ur Rtory, when the Judge bad buried half his li fe i11 the liLtlc graveya rd The ot h er h a lf remained, a 11<l wll.8 n ow into womanhoud. DoroLhy North. Dorothy, "The girt of God" who, as D<111te ha ' written, " \V alks with b 11mul e 11 e1<s for her a rr ay, Seei ng a creature se11L from Ileave11, to stay, On e:1r1h, a11J show a miracle made sure."

With peculiar ab iliL y, Jllllge NorLb had brought hi s daughter Lhrough the mol<ling period of h ·r life, a simple, un affected whole rn1 il efl gi rl. AL t he no·e of nin <'tce 11 Rh c occu]·i l·<l, uuconsciu11:;ly, the fo r l' lll ORL place a 111 0 11 g t h e young people o f the village.

What with a g r acefu l, s lcllder figure, dainty features, dark wavy hair banging in a cur l over each s h ou ld er, a n d lip :; tbat., - well that, is it a 11y woll(ler that s h e coul<l have l ed '· the r o ug lrn:-;t yo uth uy the li tt le finger.

The you n g 1n a11 w!Jo co u c e rns us most, who

was 111 0 t favored by Dorothy a11d approved by tlie J udgc, wais Hiclrn rd Ma r x, not of the firm of "Tom, Dick aml Harry," but th e manly son of Spooks leadiug business man. Dick aud Dorothy bad bec 11 playmatcis, sch oo l-matcs an<l fric11d ' si11ce their c hildh ood, a 11d uow, as a n otlie r of the youths woulcl have said, seemed desti ued to hecume helpmates Richard had developed a good cba rat ;ter an<l st r ong mind and body. To say that be loved Dorothy, would be puttiug it 111ilclly; be worshipped h er; while she, innocently eujoyi11g her sovereignty, d i<l not co ncea l her liki11g for him.

I 11 t h e spring of Dorothy's twentieth year, occure<l the incident which coucerns us most.

Judge North oDe day received a l etter from a dear friend of his a .Judge Powers, of N cw York, who extended a warm in vitatiou to visit him i 11 his New York home, to attend the an nu a l meeting of his legal assoc iati on, aDd of course to "bring th e family." 'l'he r ecipient did not h es itate iu accepting, and ant iciJMt ed the trip nearly as much as his daughter, who was clelight.cd. The next few weeks passed s l ow ly for her, being only en liv ened by the 11 ovc l expe ri ences of vreparaLiou. S h e wondered why Dick was n ot gla1l that she w:is to sec New Yo rk, a 11d all the bustlin<r o utsid e work!. He Reemell to h ave someth in g on hi s mini!, whiub he wanted to tell her, but cou ld 11ot. How awkwardly he behaved at the last frw meet i 11 gs she a l one knew, for they were co n tinua ll y by themsrlves. Ancl when, as the train left tbe statioD, a 11d Richard stood on the platform and bade h e r good-bye, with a fa r -away 10ok in his eyes, s h e did not notice that he h e ld a n eatly sea led note in hi s hant!. IIe had meant to give it to her, and tell her tu r e:t cl it when s !J e had plently of time, and to an ·wer it . as ;won as possible; but lie sLi ll h el.d it. Ile became awar e that she was almost out . of r each. Lie made ajump for the rear p latform of the la s t car. The conductor stoo:a_ 1here vulgarly tlirtiug witli some the station. "Give it to h er" was all that Dick said, a nd dropped off agai u. Who wfili r "her"r The co u<luctor opeue<l it, wbeu l:i'e had ti me, and read "Dearest Dorothy.

Meanwhi le Dorothy, started on her jonr11cy , waA happy as a l a rk , and, what with th e delightful scene r y, strange people, an l e:xeitem ent at each stop, she scarcely onec thought of poor Diek. Arrived at the terminal, she hardly knew when she anil her father were escorted to the Power.->' carr ia.ge, and the dr iv e of several miles seemed but a trifling dista11u e, so enthusiastic was 1·d1 e over al l the new a11<l iuteresting things that she aw.

A flush bad overspread her face, as, a moment la ter she bad noticed the r eflection of own extravaga 11 t beauty in a large an<l hands o me \Vhippl e t aking this uhanuc to gaze at her. So the even in g had passed, a nd Dorothy had hope cl, as she hacl said, at part· ing, that she might nwet him again, but there was little chanue, 11nder the uircurnstauce!l

The Powe'!s household consisti><l simp l y 11£ the Judge and his wife and their <laughter, Miss Nora, who was a few years o l<l c 1· than Dorothy, a plaiu appearing b 11t delightfully witty and accomplished you n g lady. Th o Powers occupied a comfort&ble place in New York society. '

.Judge North was not a littl e comp lim ent· fl' eel, wbeu informed, shortl Y after his an:ival, that an informal di11ner bad been arranged for, in his honor, at which be would be ab l e to , meet seve ral and their wives, friends of past years. While Dorothy would, or course, have pr1•fered a meeting with younger people, she was even rlelighted with the prospeut of spend ing a social cveing with New Yorke rs.

Judge Powers had invited, among other a bright and able young lawyer who had of late been practicing in b:s court, and to whom he had taken quite a liking. Enquiring, he had found that Stan l ey Whippl e had but reeently come to New York from the West. where he bad made his start in the profession. Aud w wishing to show the young man favor a nd , perhaps, enliven the society for the young ladies, the judge had iucluded him.

That longed for even in g come and go n e. Dorothy lay reflecting 011 its in the center of whiuh she saw always Star. Icy Whipple She had sat beside him at the cl iu ner table. They had got acquainted. They had sat to-

Her father, feeling her to be sincere, haJ told Digk that she unable t•l s e him, but would lie better in a day or two. He didn't dream but that the young man was receiving notee: from her through the and thought perhaps the d pli ne was good for them both.

It was not long until it was rumond about the towu that Richard Marx had been squarely jilted by the Judges' daughter. The hopes of the other Spooks' youths as Richard's fell, The woman gazed at poor Dick until he wanted to hide. The Judge came down to breakfast one morning in a disagreeable mood. Too ofteu of late had he eaten alone. Only the night before, Dick, u11able to i>tand the strain any longer, had asked him point blank what had become of Dorothy. What? Had not she written to him? This was S(')l"ious. He bad the young mau helV. Co11trary to his usual policy, he must pry into her affairs. 8he haµpened to be at breakfast this morning.

'l'he Judge picked up the paper, and uer. glanced at the headlines. "Dorothy," he ;;tarted but fini"hed to his ow11 suprise, "here is something about that young legal friend of Judge Powers." Dorothy flushed, then turned pale as h e read, "A W edcling Kuell- Marriage of Stanl e y Whipple iA Followed by 'J'ragedyJ uRt aR t.h e Rev.

But Dorothy bad fainted, before the last words wer e read.

Riehard Marx, sitting at hiA oflice desk, gazing at Apace, was suclden ly awakened from r ev eri e hy a 1<light pressure on his hand. M,• e hauically he grasped a note off e red. Only no1i11g the haud-writiug, he grabbed his hat, and read as he went onto tbe street, "Come at onee. Dorothy is unable to w1·ite."

The n e xt issue of the Spooks "Times," con-

tained this paragraph which froze the blood of youthful Spook11; "The engagemeut of Dorothy North to Mr. Ricba rJ B. Marx, has been anuounced. Both, etc., etc."

Hawthorne Notes

The Hawthorne Society was founderl about seven years ago by a small erowd of girls for a literary purpose. Meetings wer e held every week at which delightful and entertaining vrugrams were given, consisting of music, recitations aud 1:1t ories. Later books were reviewed and short stories read. The pink rose was t.he chosen e ower aud dark green and white the colors. A gold pin diamoud shaped with a white H on a dark green background was decided upon. In the summer of '99 the alumui members eutertained for the active members every two weeks, and this is by no means all that they did for the society. At this time Mrs. Ena Ricketts Folsom was sponsor and aft e r she left school Mrs. Jessie Lansing Wiggeuhorn, Miss Bridge and Miss Ger e were initiated into the i;ociety. The girls found out that because of their laek of time to prepare for the programs that they were uot beuefi c ial iso the society was changed iu to a soci'l.l orgauization.

At the Valley Tr::i 0 k Meet, we lrnd re::i so n to be prouclseveral of our boys e nt e red the contest, and Harvey Rathbo11e, Si1lney Collins and Do11ald Raymo11rl were suc0e>isfnl. We won three new trophies this year of which we were very pron(l, but it is the victory ana not th e trophy wbi0h espe0ially delighted us. Indeed it may be said that in this, as well a.; in other and pos ibly more im]Jortaut things the class, individually, have learned that the trne victory lies in the merit 11ot in the r e ward. And it is not an exaggeration to saJ that our work in the rec itation room given ample proof of this. Not that we mean to say that wt· have bad ti me for fun for undoubtedly everyone will testify that better times than the m1m1bers of onrclas11 have enjoyed are impossible.

Now, as we are again at the close of another year looki11g forward to onr return as Juniors, we can truly say that as a class as individuals we believe in the Lincoln H igb School in the genuine work aud thoroughness taught there, in the fun iu all things which are co 11nected with it. And we certaiuly shall all r e turn to continue our education in a place so thoroughly suited to fit ns all for the men and women we wish to become. So long live the Sophomores.

We're ths whole thing, we're alive.

We're the class of 1905.

Athletics

As year clJ·aws to a close, it is well to look aver the events of the past year and see just what has been accomplished along the line of Athletics, and it is not with sorrow or regret that we review these past events, but with pleasure and pride. When the Athletic Ar:.sociation started out at the first of the year, the outlook was exceedingly drear.

Dr. Condra, the very life of the Association, had left, most of the old foot ball players of the preceecling year had gone along with the record breakerc1 of the track team.

When the time for organizing a foot ball team came, raw material bad to be used almost entirely. Th e team was by far lighter thau any team of preceediug years, and yC;t they worked on trying t<> overcome this cliffiuulty

by hard tr:t.i11i11g, :t11d they !rnrely succeed<> L Uapt. Kimmel i" to be c<>n!4rat uhtecl on bis fine work org:wiz e r, a 1Hl the m e mbers of the team for th!'i r faith fol work. ThP members who tore up :l.n(l down th e field, gri11ding th e dirt into dLlst, ar0 as t\ illows: Drai11, Munn, Kimmel, B::tnvick, Saults, Mason, Kiesarback, Grone, Johuson, 1-.l:awley and Matson.

It is hoped the C.1pt.-elcet, Fields of next year will have equal in getting np a good team. 'l'biR year the team def Pated d efeated York, Omaha, Columbus, Fa1rlrnry a11cl were defeated by the Des Moiues tui.111, ::tnd the Peru State Normal a11d tied with Table Rock. The basket-ball t ea m b:i.1:1 not heen defeated once by a single te::i.m in their class and what better could we wish. Capt. Field hall the work in hand of conveying thi s tca111 through the seaRou, while Walsh distiug11ishe1l himself by breaking ii.II i 11 suecessive goal throwing. Omaha hasn't reasoned it out yet, why she was beaten in thi;i, becauEe she thought herself rnther strong a lo11g this lin e. The Athletic Carnival JJ"Xt took the attention i11 which one of the finest exhibit.ions that hat:i probably eve r been given hy the boys iu the aucl itorium waR given lastFeurnary. It is rather peculia1;, but ituearlyalways hapµensthatthe freshmen carry off the houors at these events; and the c1ass of 1906 was right iu line when it came time for the contest. When the season for one branch of athletics is about to come to an encl, another branch steps in and claims the interestis of the students and as soon as the carnival and for basket ball was over, training for the track team begau to take place which lasted for two months.

.Floy Matson, the Captain and Mr. Mercer worked bard and loug to make something of the Missouri Valley Meet that would show other schools that we were not entirely asleep. Although we came only secou<l yet und e r the circumstances we ean congratulate ourselves for nearly every man on the team that won a point will he in school next year and with a year's growth, experience aud 1.raiuing, they wi 11 unclou btedly mak e a strong ;,rack team which will win first place at Kansas City next year.
