PREFACE M JS M

SO THE READING PVBLIC Of THE UNITED STATES:

We, the editorial staff of the '02 Eniauton. hatie atoaited the day tithen this book reaches you. With great impatience. We realized that the Eniauton Was of such absorbing interest, artistic finish, and exalted merit that etiery minute Which it Was Withheld from you Was a flagrant crime for Which you Would inevitably take Vengeance on us. From anxiety on this score all of us had a Very narrow escape from brain feVer and it is due solely to the lightning speed of the printer Who succeeded in getting the book out six months ahead of the usual time that Fort Wayne still has its Very brightest people left With the convolutions of their cerebrums as complicated as eVer. M Should any thin, long- Visaged critic desire to return this inestimably Valuable book, he may obtain this privilege by depositing one dollar with the business management. We Will be heartily IhanXful. We assure him, for his Catonian bluntness and incidentally for his dollar as Well. * We desire to than\ all Who haVe given us articles or illustrations or haVe aided us in any Way in this Work. We now surrender the reader to the tender mercies of the rest of the Eniauton provided he has any energy left after reading this ■■ model" preface. JIJiJfMMMJtJtMMJk

A WORD OF EXPLANATION.

THP: editor-in-cl

the characteri

staff meetings that

sub-echtors tn put

ef concluded t'n.m :ics displaved at the should he allow the nuch of their work

into the Eniauton, it would become so superb that the glorv of preceding annuals would be obscured and suc- ceeding classes would drop anv further attempt at competition with '02 in despair. As he is a very generous and

broad-mmdcd fellow he did not desire this state of affairs. Accordingly his polic\ has been to put in only as much of their work as was absolutely unavoid- able. If anything of merit has ne\ er- theless crept into the covers of this hook, the editor-in-chief washes his hands of all blame and trusts that the Juniors will let out their spite on the sub-editors.

to Keep remarks

the '02 Eniauton free from all that might hurt the feelings of anyone. We sincerelv trust that we have succeeded in this, but if not, we have the consolation that we have faith- fullv tried.

To judge from the number of mis- spelled words handed in for publication in the Eniauton, it seems very ad- \ isable to add spelling to the regular high school course.

THE SOCIAL SPIRir AT SCHOOL.

'V\''E believe that this side of school has been somewhat neglected at our own beloved field of mental battles which end occasionally in victory and iisualK in defeat — at least, so the teachers make us think. We believe that the years spent in High School are among the happiest years of our li\es. \\'h\ not retider them still more attractive bv strong ties of social fellowship between the students.' Of course, numerous fraternities, sororities, etc., exist, but these only wield strong links between the chosen few who make up the membership. We believe that the Periclean Literary Society has started to introduce some healthy interest and social spirit in the student body and sin- cereU trust it will continue its good work and that other organizations will h.llow in its foot-steps.

Further development in this dirccIH.n will, in our opinion, greatl\ diminish an\ " rowd) " tendencies that m.i\ be present in the student body, due no doubt niereU to the exuberance of their

youthful spirits. The marked improve- ment in this respect during the present vear was due to a considerable extent, we think, to the Periclean, which opened a legitimate channel for the escape ol surplus steam.

A new and very pleasing feature of the high school is good singing by its chorus. Probably at no time in the historv of the school, has the work done b\ the student prima-donnas, bassos, tenors, cti., reached such a high degree of efficiency as it has now. We think that Professor Miles deserves especial

recogmi

for his success in this

as well as for his kindness in directing the Clee Club,

We hereb\ desire to express our warmest thanks to those who ha\e furnished us drawings for our book, yiz,: The Misses Hollensleben, Char- lotte Habercorn and Donna Savior, and William N.ilting. We realize that illiistration> which are at the same time appropriate and well executed, con- tribute largely to the success of an annual and wish to ha\e the public

know who illustrated our book and that we appreciate their work.

We were highly gratified to learn that .Mr. Lane was made president of the classical section of the state at the last convention of Indiana teachers. We know from personal experience that he deserves the honor and wish him a successful administration.

We unequivocally recommend at least a thorough tuning of that vener- able ornament of the assembly room commonU called the piano.

TO THK KDITORS OF FHF •oi KNIAITON.

^'Or are probably surprised that we ha\c ailopted a shape, color, and size for our annual different from yours in spite of the suggestion in your book to keep these characteristics uniform. We ought, perhaps, to state a reason for disregarding your suggestion. The reason is merely a difference of opinion as to whether the annual is a high school or class memorial. We hold the latter view and have acted accordingly.

IS IT WISE TO CONTINUE THE PUBLICATION OF ANNUALS?

THIS is a question

high school students and of par- ticular importance to the Juniors. It is the purpose of this article to reveal some tacts which mav aid them to decide the question wisely.

An Annual is a sort of high school historv presenting its material in as interesting and pleasing a way as is possible. An Annual is also a verv handsome and appropriate class me- morial. This is practically the extent of its uses, unless in addition, it serves to give immortality to all persons whose names appear in its columns.

What does the attainment of these objects cost ? The cost of this bonk ni money approximates four hundred and fifty dollars. Two hundred and fift\ books are published and thus at one dollar apiece, the proceeds from the book itself would be two hundred and fifty dollars. By herculean efl-brts, the busi- ness managers obtained about two hun-

dred dollars' worth nt advertisements. This amount can probably never be ob- tained again as merchants are heartily tired of this form of advertising. The fraternities and societies, of course, pay for their own pictures. From these figures it can be seen that the \ ery best which we can hope for financially is to "come out e\en." To accomplish e\en this, requires the sale of eyer\ book, a task which grows more difficult every year for obyious reasons.

The financial aspect, however, of the question is not the only one that ought to be considered. To publish a good book requires a surprisingly large amount of time and work. This, together with the numerous money-making events which distract the minds of Seniors, assuredly make them \ery busy mortals and are necessarily detrimental to the work at school. Perhaps if these distractions did not occur there would not be so mam Seniors on the ragged edge of

failicre in their \ ery last \ ear. To make a long story short, the great financial risk that is run, the time and labor that are exacted, the difficulty of being original, the lack of novelty in the enterprise, the man\ disappointments and unexpected obstacles which arise, all together make a formidable combina- tion of reasons against publishing an .Annual. We had no presentation of facts like this to guide us in our action, or m all pr.ibability this book would not have appeared.

If it is desired to keep a short record of High School e\ ents, a cheap, paper bound booklet could be published which would answer the purpose, furnish prac- tically the same experience, exact less time and work, and afford far better chances of financial success.

Should succeeding classes decide not to publish an Annual we sincerely trust that inir book makes a worth\ " Last of the Eniautons."

r thcahird floor vyas equipped as a after some years conyerted into an auditorium and a recitation room for classes in drawing. The training school was abolished in 1886. The ninth grade was made a part of the high school and transferred to the high school building in 1889, a change which, deferred too long bv at least ten years, so increased the numbers in the school as to make it necessary to convert the third floor into a session room with adjacent recitation rooms for the ninth grade. Since that time the entire building has been occupied by the high school, and natural growth compelled the building in i8q8 of an addition by which a session room, seating about one hundred students, was added, and also three new recitation rooms. The building is now tixed to its utmost capacity and an\' considerable increase in the enrollment would result in o\ ercrowding."

The report contains a table showing the annual enrollment of the high school from 1879 to 1902 inclusive. The figures of this table show a steady and gratifying increase in attendance especially during the last fifteen years.

" Nothing reveals how greatly the conditions of high school work have changed in the last twenty-ri\ e \'ears more clearb than a comparison of programs of study then and now. Then ten-week courses in a great vaiiety of subjects were common, all students were required to take the same subjects and to do ihe .same number of hours work. Failure in two

subjects conipcllecl the dciing ;igain (it" all the work of an entire \tar. 'rii-da\, at least a full \ear"s work in any subject that is taken at all is the rule, some freedom is allowed in choice of subjects, no subject satisfactorily completed is required to be repeated because of failure in another subject, the number of hours' work ma\ var\ according to the health and ability of the student."

"Along all these lines our High School has moved towards an enlightened practice as discussion and experience have suggested wise changes. We have no delusive ten-week courses in any subject. We do not attempt to cover in four years all the subjects in which man may take an eaucational mterest. We do not assume that all teachers can teach all subjects equally well. We recognize that history and English language and literature are proper subjects of study, and that they require in the instructor wide and accurate knowledge and masterly skill, and that they draw heavily upon the imagin- ation and judgment of the student. We do not therefore set the teacher of history to teach astronomy, and that too with no other apparatus than a string and a blackboard, nor do we assign the work in English as a perfunctory task to unprepared and unwilling teachers. The work of every teacher lies in a limited field for which he has made special preparation. He is liberallv supplied with all the essential means of teaching. Our library is ample for our needs and additions are readily made as occasion requires, our department of history is well supplied with maps conveniently arranged, our botanical, phvsical, and chemical laboratories are equipped in accordance with modern requirements in science teaching. Our laboratories might be more suitablv housed, but defects of situation can be remedied only by a better building, of which we live in hope."

"The increase since 1890 has been a trifle more than fitiv per cent., while the increase in the population of the city has been during the same period about twent\-se\ en and one-half per cent. Throughout the United States the percentage of female students in high schools largely exceeds the percentage of males and has been steadily increasing during the last decade. It is g'atifying to see th^t the number of boys in our high school has doubled since 1890 and that their percentage has largely increased. Taking an average of the first three years of the last decade the percentage of boys is thirty-one and eight tenths, while for the last three \ears it is nearly forty."

The report also gives a list bv classes of the graduates of the hign school since 1892, who have entered upon a regular collegiate course.

"This list contains the names of eighty-one graduates who have entered upon a regular collegiate course. The total number of graduates during the.e ten years is 2H7. Of this number twentv-seven and eighty-seven hundredths per cent, have entered college. At least fifteen more have entered schools of law or medicine and as matiy more have entered Purdue university or professional schools before graduating from the high school. The report of the United States commissioner ot education for 1898-1899 (the last report accessible) shows that of the total number of graduates from public high schools in the United States in 1897-1898, twenty-seven and forty-five hundredths per cent, prepared for college and in 1898-1899, twenty-eight and eighty-five hundredths per cent. The figures of the commissioner include all who prepared for college while those given for our school include only those who have entered college. These figures show beyond question that the impulse toward higher education given by our high school training is strong and enduring."

THE NEW HI(;H SCHOOL

PROF. JUSTIN N. STUDY.

' I M 1 1 . fiectioM of the new High and Manual Training School building, of which a cut appears in this huok, marks aji epoch in the educational progress of the city.

The new building will be a fire-proof structure built of stone and iron, and is intended to accommodate eight hundred pupils — but as is the usual custom, will probablv ha\ e to accommodate main more before any additions will be made to the building.

The basement will contain closets and heating apparatus. In this part of the building will also be the foundry and forge rooms and the moulding room of the manual trainmg department, lunch rooms for boys and girls and room for storing bicycles.

On the first floor will be the first vear studv room, the biological laboratory, the wood working and machine rooms and eleven recitation rooms.

On the second floor will be an auditorium seating lOOO, study rooms for the second, third, and fourth vear pupils, the principal's offices and recitation room, rooms for a commercial course, the library and two general recitation rooms.

On the third floor will be the gallery to the auditorium, the chemical and physical laboratories and lecture moms, the physiography rooms, the rooms for mechanical and free hand drawing, cooking and sewing rooms.

Closets and lavatories are located on each floor.

The present high school courses will be continued substantiallv as thev are, but additional courses will be arranged to meet the wants of those who wish the manual training in connection with the high school course of study.

In adding these courses to the public high school work the board of school trustees is bringing the educational policy of Kort Wavne in harmonv with the spirit of the times.

For many years there has been a growing con\ iction in the minds of thoughtful men that the educational s\ stem, while doing much, was not doing all that should be done for the young people entrusted to its care.

The wonderful material development of the country and the in\ entions and discoveries of the latter part of the nineteenth centur\ created a demand for a new education. Technological schools sprang up all over the land to meet this demand, with an education that should meet the new conditions of life, and fit men to handle and further develop the newly discovered forces.

These schools have exerted a reflex influence upon secondary education and the sentiment has grown that the best education is that which trains all the faculties instead of a part. This sentiment has brought about the introduction of manual training not only into the secondary school, but also into the elementary school. The subject is no longer one admitting argument. It has passed that stage and the only discussion is as to application.

The new high school, in obedience to the demands of the age, will incorporate the manual training idea and ofler, in addition to the courses of study now ottered, courses of study embracing a year in wood working, a vear in forging, a year in foundry work, and a vear in machine fitting. Also four years' work in freehand and mechanical drawing. To these will be addded, tor gills, work in domestic science. It will not be possible to begin all these at once, as the subjects must be taken up in their logical order and it will therefore be necessary to ecpiip the school, at the beginning, for the first year's work only, in the manual training depart-

nient. It i> m t the desii:n ut' a nianual training school proper to teach trades as such. The trade school and the manual training school are two ilistinct conceptions. The one is purely industrial in its aims, the other educa'ional. It is true that the training recei\ed iVoni the educational point of \ leu' will go far to fit the recipient for any of the leading handicrafts, but that fitting is not the end soui;ht. The de\ elopnient not of the brain alone, but the eve; the hand; the whole man is the aim of the manual training school.

Oliver Wendell Holmes has said ; " Book knowledge, lecture knowledge, examination knowledge are in the brain. Hut work knowledge is not onU in the brain, it is in the senses, in the muscles, in the ganglia of the sympathetic nerves — all o\ er the man, as one may sa\ as iiistnict seems ditt'useil through every part of those lower animals that have no distinct organ as a brain."

The manual training ^ch..,,l \v hile it does not immediately teach the boy a trade, vet does many things for him which tit him for the practical neetls ot life, as the .Tdinarv high school does not.

Among these may be mentioned; First — The nullificat on of the idea, which too often e.xists, that manual toil is degrading, that the object of education is to enable one to gain a livelihood by his wits rather than by bodily toil. The boy who has taken his training in a manual training school goes out with a knowledge of the true dignity of labor, such as forever precludes him from the snobbishness of contempt for honest toil.

Second — A course in manual training begets habits of accuracy. Slip-shod school work shows in the finished product, and the product stands as an indisputable witness to the fact that the best has been done. The bad joint allows no excuse, it is a most potent protest against slovenliness in method.

Third — It begets habits of neatness and order, for tools must be kept in order, habits of concentration, for no exercise is continued until it becomes automatic, habits of self-reliance, as his finished product carries in itself evidence of the successful effort.

F"our:h — Many to whom the ordinary high school course does not appeal and who, in consequence, abandon school prema- turely, will be held h\ the manual training work until the course of study is completed, giving as it does an opportunity for the exercise of faculties not bnuight into use in the old course, and bearing, as it does, more directly upon the activities of life.

Ti> hniii; .ibiiiit the desired reviilt it is important that the department shall be placed under direct charge of one who has been fitted b\ ciUication and b\ exercise for the work. Those n charge of classes must also be teachers not mere craftsmen ; be able not only to d.i the things reijuired but also be able to explain the philosophy underlying the processes. In manual training as in all other educational fields, it is the teacher who makes the school — costly equipment and commodious quarters amount to nauiiht 111 the absence of the capable teacher. The managemert of the whole school must be in the hands of one principal, how- ever. N'ci one department can, with due regard to good work, be made independent. This has been tried but so far as I know

A wise principal entrusted with the general management of the school will leave to heads of departments, details with which he cannot presume, or be expected to be acquainted. Responsibilit\- of management, however, must be centered to attain the best results. The manual training school must be a department of the high school and not an independent school, in order that it may do for the school what we hope it will do, viz ; increase the attendance; hold the students, and intensify the interest in hii£h school work.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY

TT was Ml the fall of the \ear 1S98, in the festi\e month of Septemhtr, that the of the third floor cast her eve o\ er a vast unknown quantitv. Perhaps it was k had ever sat before her. That unknown quantitv was the class of iqo2. Some of us Then we were freshmen ; now we are Seniors. Ah '

Our first year of high school hfe was like m,.st freshmen \ cars— rather uneventful. We drifted aimlessly with the tide, except when some of our older brothers cndea\ orcil tn take a hand at the helm. However, the cla^is organization, though hindered by many difficulties, guided us through man) of the ills of Freshmen life.

Summer came and went and at its close we entered upon the second year of our course. With a large decrease in our number came a dignitv more suitable to our advancing years than the childish traits we had displayed the previous year. Our growing abilities were soon appreciated, for we were allowed to take up geometry at the beginning of the second term. There was enrolled a class for the study of Greek, which was larger than any had been for several years.

Aside from our studies we enjoNed man\ of the sports of high school life. We went about doing good, as some of the 03's will agree. We mingled among them quietly, urging those who were less staid than we were to mend their ways. Let me assure you, gentle reader, this was done in a \ erv kindly spirit. For some reason, however, our missionary effbrts were not appreciated. Field da\' brought pleasant surprises to all ; members of '02 won first and third honors.

When the old school bell again sent its merr\ chimes ringing to our ears, enough of us answered its call to make an averaged sized class and give everybody no end ot trouble. Ai yet again, that in a short time we should be Seniors, we purchased our t taste of that proud, superior feeling which we were soon to assume.

Many of our members witnessed the graduating exercises of the

favorable auspices that it made its appearance on lil-'e's battleticid. The class sat before us, each member display- ing his pleasantest smile, when lo! Jupiter hurled a score of his thunder bolts towards the earth. The place shook to its very foundations. The heavens flashed with fire. The gods were displeased. As the furv of that awful storm broke over their heads those proud Seniors saw our glorious streamers of gold and blue floating triumphantly before them. \'er\ prudently thev acknowledged their defeat. The battle was over. The gods were appeased bv their humiliatinn. I'hus is it ever with the proud.

Now, " we are the people .' "

In various wavs the general public has become aci]uainte.l with us. We rank among our numbers some of the most active and influential members of the Periclean Debating society. Our class is also well represented in the Cjlee Club and it is a well known fact that the Seniors are the source of whatever harmonious sounds come from the club. The principal cause, howe\cr, of our prominence is "The Professor's Discovery," which was played by the senior class. This pla\ established beyond all doubt that our class is the most remarkable that ever crossed the threshold of the high school. What others had not even thought of we carried to a successful conclusion.

Our pleasant high school days will soon be o\ er. Perhaps many will sigh with relief when thev have "passed" successfully; but many more will sigh with regret when the last happy davs ha\e passed forever. To tell whence we all came on that tirst da\ would be a diflicult task ; where we are going, who of us can tell .' Our senior history is in process of construction. We have been laying the foundations ( we hope thev are firm » for this all these long years. Some, at their departure from that kind old school, will beijin their buildini; immedi- atelv. ( )thers will make the foundations more secure bv more vears of studv.

On the morrow. Ah ! The dread to-morrow — IVe shall leave these happy seenes. Bid fare^i-ell to student dreams.

The closing; days of school have come, The rushing tide of memory l-"illed with parting's sorrow, Comes surging as the sea.

Our hearts are full of yesterday. While hope tills all our yisioi Our thoughts are on toinorrtnv. With that which is to he.

The past is all hehind us, With many a failure rife.

The record, as we'\e made it.

Must stand throui^hout our life.

We have the open tuture. But trust not in tomorrow.

In which \\-e may retrie\e Today is ours alone.

The hours ot empty idling Then let us " carpe diem,"

P'or which, today \ve grieve. And for otir past atone.

'o2 PROPHECY

TT was a dismal night in Novembe:. The wind howled around the house. The window panes rattled in their frames, the trees groaned, and large flakes of snow were hurri ing through the air like a mightv armv rushing along to attack the foe. All nature was in a turmoil.

Within my home, howe\ er, all was warm and cosy. The hearth was piled high with pine fagots and these were succeeding verv well in their efforts to warm and brighten the room. Before the hearth was a large buffalo robe on which I was lying, lazily reading my " Macbeth." My thoughts often strayed away from mv task and I was dreamily building many vague, hut delightful air-castles. I had come, at last to the second witch scene in the first act, and as this unreal portrayal was in harmony with my thoughts, I unconsciously repeated their charm aloud :

'■'■Thrice to thine, and thiire to mine. And thrice again, to make up nine."

1 had hanIK tini>h(.'d this when, lo, an apparition came in, which I inimediatelv recogni/.ed as our old friend Merciiri. He did nut wait for nie to speak, but said in rich, mellow tones ;

" Father Jove sent me hither to-night to show vou the future of \our class-mates. Come."

With these words he handed me a pair of winged sandals, the identical ones, he smilinglv assured me, which Perseus had worn when he killed Medusa. He added, with a twinkle in his eve, that he was wearing a pair that was more up-to-date than mine, thus indicating that not oiilv fate is superior to the gods, but also that mysterious being called "ttvle."

I put on the sandals and immediateU we soared up to di/.z\ heights and then darted along in a southwesterly direction. After about three minutes as it seemed to me we descended and alighted in front of a large cave in a vast, rocky plain. We entered the cave and my mysterious companion straightway lighted a queer candle which quickly filled the cave with sweet-scented drowsy fumes, and I soon gave way to the spell and fell in a trance.

First I saw myself in a magnificent church just as a marriage cercmon\ was about to be performed. The

bride was coming down the ai^le and I was x erv niuth surprised to recognize Alice Foster. In place of" one of tlie imposing marches of Beetho\ en or Mozart, the organist, Pearl Bond, began to pla\ just as the bridegroom stepped in "See, the Conquering Hero Comes," and every one admitted that it was a verv suitable selection. The choir, whose leader was Robert Feustel, rendered a verv beautiful song and I clearly distinguished the sweet \oices of Mae Eiter and Georgia' Warner. The officiating clergvman was the Rev. H. H. Wagenhals, D. D. The church was tastefully trimmed bv the leading florist of the city, Bessie Conner. Above the altar hung a verv beautiful picture, painted in the art studio of Agnes Littlejohn.

After the ceremonv had been performed I left the church and walked along leisureh . 1 had hardU gotten o\er mv surprise at seeing a sign ;

".MISS ERMA DOCHTERMANN^-Dakcikg School,"

when I heard a loud explosion in a residence near h\ . I hurried toward it and rushed in. .Alas, a sad sight greeted mv e\es. Glenn Saw\er, who had become a famous chemist, had performed one of his manv compli- cated experiments and had blown himself up. Dr. Grosjean was hurriedlv summoned, and he came as fast as he could with a professional nurse, Grace Smith, but the onlv thing he could do was to turn over the remains to an undertaker, Arthur Twining. In the meantime the fire department had dashed up with. Page Yarnelle, the fire chief, at their head. He was full of energy and zeal in extinguishing the flames due to the explosion — far different it must be admitted, from his appearance a few hours later when I saw him growing pale under the hands of Mi:.s Elizabeth Evans, the most progressive dentist in town.

Mv nerves were so upset bv Glenn's sad end that I entered a theatre near by to see a comedy. I was amazed to learn from the programme that the manager of the company was Arthur Parry, and that his chief actress was Jessie Tuckev. Of course the play was very good. William Schaden rendered the principle special- ties with his characteristic grace and humor. I was somewhat surprised to see Roy Tigar in the audience because in his official capacity as governor of his state he was having a hard time just then in keeping Favor Vreeland, who had become a lecturer on " Woman's Rights," from tormenting the state legislature with that fruitful subject.

Then the scene was changed and I found myself at one of the ward schools. I was immediately struck by the artistic beauty and regularity of the building and was pleased to learn that Maud Murray had been the architect that designed it. I asked for the principal, who as I learned from a schedule in the school was no one

else than Georgia Davis. I was told that she was in the seventh grade room Accordingly I went there. When I got near the room I distinguished the principal's voice coming through the open door. She was just giving the children a lecture — on good behavior, and I heard the words :

"Now when I went to school we never thought of whispering or writing notes."

1 did not wait for more, but rapped at the door and receiv^ed a hearty welcome. From her 1 learned con- siderable about other members of the class. Emma Warner stood at the head of the kindergarten in the same school. Clara Owen was head stenographer and bookkeeper in a large wholesale house near by. Edith Foster had become a successful music teacher. This did not surprise me as she was always so remarkable for her angelic patience. I was astonished, however, at George Thorward's fate. He had devoted himself to politics and had been rewarded for his faithfulness bv the position of citv poundmaster, which he was still holding. Who should have thought that (leorge would ever go to the dogs.' Marion Baker had distinguished herself bv becoming the most fashionable dressmaker of the city and then marrying a wealthy bachelor, thus driving all the society girls half frantic with anger and regret. Bernadette Monnahan had alreadv won fame as an active worker in the slums of New ^'ork.

Suddenly the scene was changed again. [ found nn self in China listening to the earnest and eloipient address of a missionary in whom 1 recognized Zona Hopkins. She was assisted verv ably in her work h\ the singing evangelist, .Anna Biddle.

I reflected a few moments and then reali/.ed that I hail viewed all the members of the glorious old class of '02 e.vcept our good-natured class comedian, Robert Kinnaird. I had hardly thought of him when 1 found my- self at the Chinese court. I easily recognized the king by his crown and haughty bearing, but who was that person yonder adorned with cap and bells ? I could hardly believe mv eves, but if thev did not deceive me, it was the long lost Robert (Cinnaird. I learned later that this was really the case and found out in explanation that Robert had visited the Chinese king during his travels and so delighted his majesty by his humor that the king offered him an annual salary often thousand dollars for becoming the court jester and the bargain was struck.

I had scarcely heard the end of this strange tale when there was a sudden crash and I found myself lying on the rug at home. Aliirihilf dictii my relatives claim that I was snoring away during the whole evening at a very lively clip.

HISTORY 01< THE CLASS OF '03

The Class of 1903 started on Its high school career fully determined to make a name for itself that would be handed down in history as the name of the most enterprising class on the high school records. In order to establish ourselves as a class, a meeting was held and we were formallv organized. Officers were elected, colors chosen and the motto " An Investment in Knowledge Pays Best Interest" was adopted. We then proceeded to put our motto into practice by devoting ourselves to our books. For a time this occupied all our attention.

The second year found us still devoting ourselves to acquiring knowledge, but with an added dignity, as we felt the importance of being Sophomores. Few class meetings were held and aside from making a name for ourselves in the class room we attempted nothing else. So our talents lav dormant for a time and it was not until we had entered upon our Junior vear that our importance was felt in every branch of the school. In athletics 1903 is well represented both on the foot ball team and in field day sports. We have a number of oratorical stars who often bring honor to their class by their eloquence. Then too, the glee club is well supported by members, ot 1903. The customary Junior dance was given about the middle of the year. It was our first undertaking of any importance, but was a brilliant micccss in every way and may be taken as prophetic of the success that will attend all the efforts of the class.

Although our numbers have decreased somewhat, the enthusiasm has not waned, and we are steadily pressing on to till the place of Seniors in a way that will bring credit to ourselves and honor to our school.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '04

September, 1904, saw the advent of the wonderful Class of 1904 into the Fort Wavne High School. It displaced its progressive character by organizing soon after the taking up of school. Competent officers were elected and committees appointed. Thus was this class launched upon the sea of high school life. The officers of the first year were succeeded bv other officers just as competent (and there are plenty left to draw from). The Class of 1904 does not wish to gain prominence bv giving brilliant ( ? ) social functions as some of its predecessors have attempted to do, but bv hard work and perscverence. The class has its good tnres, however, as at the sleighing part\ to Swift's farm.

The colors chosen bv the class were red and white. The red symbolizes the class' power to "tight" if necessar\ , while, on the other hand, the white signifies its willingness to mamtain peace.

The class motto is very appropriate. It is " A (jood Education is a Better Safeguard of Liberty Than a Standing Army." If this is true (and it is ) the members of 1904 will assuredly be valiant protectors of liberty. However shy and apparently insignificant 1904 may have been in the past she will inevitabU become great in the fuunv. Therefore look out '

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '05

As all readers of the Eniauton know, many classes have crossed the thresh- old of the Fort Wayne High School and' have climbed the winding stairs that lead to the highest room in the building.

The Class of 1905, commonly known as the "freshman" class, followed this precedent September gth, igoi. This class is the first that ever organized in the second week of its high school career. At the Hrst meeting, held September 20, igoi, officers were elected and the motto, "Not Failure, But Low Aim is Crime," was adopted. All gold and scarlet were chosen as class colors and the red rose as class flower.

In athletics our class was represented by a number of the young men who played foot ball on the "varsity." Many of the class, furthermore, are taking an active share in the " Periclean Debating society." The young ladies of the class take an active part in everything they can to help the class along. I am proud to say we are in high school for something.

We hope that in June, 1905, we shall all look back proudly on our past years and see that we got something out of our high school work. I am confident that we all shall reach the top of the ladder if only we try. We have a great many steps to climb, but only energy and perseverance are required. Come, let us push our way upward. Surely we can all reach the top and tie the old gold banner to the highest step where all who see it can read these lines on it in scarlet letters, " Not Failure, but l,..w Aim is Crime."

CONCERNIXC; HKiH SCHOOL ATHLETICS

TT was in ihe eighties of the last century that the colleges of Indiana got to playing football together. ProbabU there had been a few inter-collegiate games of baseball before 1880, but the modern idea of scheduled games of am kind was \et unborn.

The next decade, however, saw a great change in the matter of athletics, and football and baseball games and held meets between the larger colleges became very common. The boys of the high schools beheld and admired these forms of sport and early in the nineties followed the lead of the college men and our inter-scholastic games began.

The Fort Wayne High School was not at all slow in the new movement. In 1891 the rirst football team was organized and within a year or two commenced playing out-of-town games. In 1894 the present Athletic Associa- tion came into existence and the same year our first Field Day was held. Former annuals have given rather exhaustively the history of our ups and downs in football and other sports, and the object of this brief article is to discuss possible method of improving the condition of athletics in our school.

It must be remembered that the terms Athletics and Physical Culture are not at all synonymous. The latter implies systematic regular training of all the muscles of the body by long continued and well chosen exercises. To be of value such work should be under the control and direction of an expert capable of determining just what work should be done by each individual, and then of directing that work. No one can doubt that such training is most valuable and that it should go hand in hand with the mental gymnastics of the school-room. It is sincerely hoped by the students and teachers alike that our School Board wdl make provision for suitable rooms and an instructor at the time we go into the new building, and that this much neglected but valuable side of education shall thereafter .'eccive due attention. Such physical training should be compulsory for all of average health and strength and if so, would benefit over ninty-five per cent, of all attending school. Athletic sports on the contrary affect only about ten per cent. of the boys, and, of course, give no physical benefit at all to the girls.

The wisdom of holding Athletic games is an open question. Many persons who have seriously studied the matter greatly regret that interscholastic meets were ever inaugurated. It must be conceded that there is some ph\ sical risk in football, both from accident and over-exertion, and there is always great danger that athletics will prove distracting to students and so lower scholarship. On the other hand there is a public demand for athletic sports, and our schools do play football and baseball, and, in all probability, will continue to do so. 'T'his being true, it is certainly unwise to let athletic matters drift ; and very careful thought should be given to methods of regulation that will

miiumi/.e ihe ..biectionable and develop the desirable features (if the iiresent system. With this end in view <mr Athletic Association should consider plans tor bettering existing conditions, and then with the help of the school management execute such reforms as are decided upon. The following suggestions are made for consideration :

I. To define under what conditions students shall be eligible to play on our own teams. This is the most impoitant matter to be decided and the following points are pertinent to its discussion: (a) Students having any physical weakness are liable to serious injury ; therefore one requisite to "getting on" a team should be a certificate of good physical condition from an appointed physician. (A) No student should be allowed to plav in anv games without the consent of his parents or guardians. A written permission from his legal guardian should be required. ( c ) None but regular students taking as much as twelve hours weekly of regular school work should be eligible to enter contests. Such a provision would prevent triflers from taking a "course" in Athletics with some school subject on the side. ( // ) None but successful and orderly students should be on our teams. Failure in any one subject or low grades in two or more subjects, or habitual bad heh.n inr in school, should debar a student from participation in any game. By this provision only, can athletics become a help instead of a stumbling block to scholarship and good government in the school. ( c ) Professionalism is fatal to the spirit and dignity of school athletics. No person who has received payment for playing on any occasion should be allowed to compete in any school event.

While to some these restrictions to eligibility may at first thought seem rather severe, it is believed that a little reflection will convince any reasonable person of the wisd<im of each point made. Scores of schools have taken as advanced a standing on this subject as the one here indicated and the results in such places ha\e been gratifying in the

II. To determine what qualifications shall be required in opposing teams. While we can not presume to dictate to other schools what their rules on eligibility shall be we can materially help to raise their standard by refusing to enter into contests with them unless we are guaranteed that their teams are composed of homi fide students and absolutely free from professional pla\crs. It is true that we have said in the past that we would only play against students taking regular courses. But unfnrtunatelv, we have never had the high moral courage to support our own proposition unflinchingly and have repeatedly pla\ cd against dishonestly constituted teams rather than " spoil the game " and "disappoint the crowd" at the last moment. Of course there can be no further trouble on this score when once we shall have gained the reputation of meaning just what we say.

III. To use every means of leading other schools to adopt similar standards of eligibility .\n agreement between the schools of northern Indiana on this subject would be an excellent thing and probablv could be easil\ br..ui;ht about.

COACH'S LETTER

A THI.F. TR' spurts ha\ e been a principal sourse of amusement for many centuries past. Thev seem to have oriL;iiKitc-il with the Cireeks, among whom physical development reached a high state of perfection. Xot until the last centurv was an athletic contest looked upon in anv other manner than as a profession. The amateur ne\er engaged in anv public contest in .Athletics.

Amateur Athletics had their bnth at the beginning of the last ccntur\ in the prominent colleges and schools of England, Their principal games were foctball and cricket — their field meets were similar to ours of to-dav. It is to England that we are indebted for our most fascinating of all games — the best of all games — football. While it is not likelv that the game oriLrinated there, nevertheless it was from the English that we learned it.

Football was originalK pla\cil with seventeen men, then the number was reduced to fifteen ; and since the game has been popular here, it has been reduced to our present number of eleven men. Football was first introduced into this continent in Canada, and from our sister country on the North the sport was introduced into the Yale University.

But what concerns us most is our local .Athletics — and man\, many times has the question been asked, " Why didn't our boys win more games last fall.'" And now- we have the opportunity of telling you — let me say that the defeats met were not the fault of the team alone — but the fault of yourself as well. We may assign as the principal reasons ; 'Fhe lack of support, both financialh and as to the good w 11 of the s-tudent body as a whole ; the lack of heart\ interest and svipport of the faculty and parents, and competing with teams composed of older, larger and more experienced pla\ ers. We shall treat the reasons given in their reverse order.

It must he remembered that the members of this \ ear's team were all new and almost without exception inexperienced in the game ; that they had an unusualK hard schedule to fill ; and that the teams they met last fall in every instance were more ad\ anced in age and were from ten to twent\ pounds heavier, man for man, than the bovs of our team. Then, too, the bovs of our school graduate at a much earlier age than those of the surrounding towns. Many of the bo\ s in the neighboring schools do not push through and complete the prescribed course of study in the

allotted four vears as the boys here do. Many of their number are farmer bovs whj cannot start at the opening of school or continue until its close ; therefore more vears are required to complete the course of study. Consequently many of the bovs are twenty or twenty-one years of age before graduating — yet they have been playing football since entering High School — in some instances long enough to bar them from the team were they in college .Athletics.

Another thing we find that aids and encourages the teams of our smaller cities and towns is that the faculty to an indi\idual is in hearty co-operation with the team. One victory is much easier won than two, and the team that undertakes to wrest victory from their opponents — knowing that later they will have to appease the wrath of their faculty and parents — are encountering a hard proposition. War was ne\ er carried on successfully with an enemy in the camp.

The next and perhaps the most discouraging thing of all to the team was the lack of support from the student hotU. \Vh\ shouldn't you be as proud of your team as Harvard, Yale and Princeton are proud of their teams.' Why wouldn't .1 victory for your team be a victory for you as much as a Harvard victory for the Harvard student.' .And wh\ are these teams so successful in their games.' FJecause they have the entire support of the universities behind them.

True, every one can't secure a place on the team — hut \ ou can help wm the game b\ being present. Fill the side lines and bleachers ( but keep back of the ropes i, take your pennants and horns; for nothing inspires one to do his very best more than to know his friends are present to rejoice in his victory and to mourn at his defeat — especially if his friends are lady friends.

The team to a man is to be complimented for their pluck and the manner in which thev conducted themselves in last season's games. When it seemed that nothing short of a miracle could bring victory for Fort Wayne, courage was not lost but each man sailed into ihe fray with a grim determination to do or die. And the team, as a whole, are (o be praised for their hard and consistent work. Every man who played on the team is better physically and mentally for his experience. Personally, 1 have never met a more manl\- or honest scpiad of boys on or oft" the gridiron. Each one has proven himself to be a geinli-nuin and the nu-murv of last fall's experieiue with the team will always be to me a source of great pleasure. ^'mirs trulv ,

For the first time in the history of Annual publication.^, bowling, a sport that e.vemplifies all that is virtuous in an exercise, takes its place in the list of high school athletics. Hitherto athletic editors have not deemed it worthy of being mentioned in their columns. Now, however, so much bowling is done by high school people that it deserves recognition.

There are at present two teams in the high school. One is composed of professors, the other of students. Their individual records are very good, their team work excellent. The professors have lost but one of theii while the students have won fifty per cent, of theirs. In all of these games, their opponents victory was always an achievement, defeat never a disgrace.

Besides its organized bowlers, there are many individuals who bid fair to become excellent rollers. That bowling as a high school sport has a great future before it, is e\ident when we consider that a great number of school athletes are interested in it, that two strontj teams are now recognized athletic organizations of the high schcjol, and that it has the heart\ support of the faculty

HIS FATHER RELENTED

O I l.l,^' was a football player from the word go, but his father was an anti-football man to the hmsh. The latter was imbued with the idea that the game was hopelessly brutal and that eventually his son would turn out to be a prize fighter if allowed to continue playing. He really took an interest in the scores of the big games, but never wavered in his opinion that the game ought to be suppressed by law. If Billy got his head in the way of a golf stick and was laid up for a week or so, that was a mere accident. If he got his fingers broken while playing baseball, that was a thing which might happen to anybody. If he broke an arm at the gvmnasium, he was advised to be just a bit more careful. If he scraped half the skin off his anatomv in a bicycle accident, it was the machine's fault. If, however, Billy got a bloody nose, a bad knee, or a black eye while playing football, then it was an outrage to the community that such a game should be allowed to be played bv civilized and educated sons of respectable parents. Billy thought his chances of playing were very slim, but kept on practicing just the same.

The big Thanksgiving game was to be played on the grounds of the team's bitterest rivals, and, with Billy in the same, there was a fairly good chance of coming away victorious ; without him there w as no hope at all. The team decided that he must play by all means and Billy came to that conclusion himself. Petitions to his father from the student body of the school av ailed nothing. Members of the faculty, who were more interested in the team's welfare than faculties usually are, found that visits to Billy's house did absolutely no good. Billy, Sr., was obdurate and it was left to Billy whether he would play without the consent of pater familias or not play at all. Those whn knew him best were not much disturbed as to the outcome. BilU would pla\ if he had to get out of town in a balloon.

When the day of the game arrived, a larger number than usual of the team's supporters were at the station to see it otf".

They came, too, to see what Billy intended to do. He was there all right, grip in hand and a determined look in his face. |ust as the train was getting ready to pull out, however, some one spied a man coming up the street at full speed. Billy's father, for he it was, had a savage look on his face and his eyes glowered threateningly. When he rushed across the platform, Bdiv had disappeared and his team mates were as much in ignorance as to his whereabouts as the irate father himself. He searched the train from cab to trailer, but Billy could not be found, and the head of the famiU- finally seated him.self on an upturned trunk to await developments. The\ didn't come and the train pulled out.

The team was surprised, dazed and even ready to accuse Billy of being faint-hearted. They were certain that Billy was not on the train, and of course he could not be in the game that afternoon. That meant that the whole team would be out of it in nne sense iif the word. The train covered mile after nnle anil the bo\ s i;rew silent, even sullen ; they would not put up a i;ame that tbev need he ashamed of, even if Billy was out of ,t.

The lirst station was reached and the players stepped out on the platform to size up the village. The customary yells were nut pven and the sleepy villagers di<i not stand around open-mouthed, as is usual on such occasions. Thev might have wondered what the unusual display of ribbons meant, but no deafening shouts enlightened them. Suddenly there was a shout, however, and it sounded loud and clear through the crisp fall air. A hand pointed wildly to the top of the train and there, seated nn the edge of a car, his face discolored with smoke and cinders, his eves blinking hard to relieve themselves of dust and ashes, sat Billy, the best half-back in the state, the best kicker on any high school team, Billy the incomparable, the undownable. He jumped down into the arms of his frenzied team mates, was lifted to their shoulders and paraded around the platform until the grinning conductor \ elk-d "■ All aboard ! " In that short time the slow-going inhabitants of that sequestered little hamlet got a taste of football yells and ^ong^ that thev will never forget. The baggageman put the same trunks back into the car that he had taken out ; the fireman threw three shovelsfull of coal against the door of the fire-box before he noticed that it was close;!. Billy related, in explanation, that he had climed the car when he saw his father coming and managed to remain concealed until the train pulled out. He didn't want to risk climbing down while the train was in motion, and hence waited until first the station was reached.

His team won the game, the final score being tweKe to nuthing. Without Billy the score would have been reversed. He played a game that dazed his opponents. Hu rushi-d through the line like a cyclone rushes through the golden corn fields of sunny Kansas. He cleared the end like a two-miiuite horse cle.irs the third quarter to take the home stretch. He tackled so fiercely that the crowd thought the home pla\ers would all be on the side lines before the game was o\ er. Yet all this time, he was picturing to himself what a low tackle his father would make when he got home.

The trip home was the same noisy, boisterous affair that it usually is. Those who were not tired after the game were tired before they reached home. Billy got off the tr.iin at the depot and started home with dark forebodings of the reception he would get. He could imagine that pater faniili.is \\a-. waiting for him at the door with orders for him to leave the parental roof forever and sever, once for all, his connections with the scenes of his childhood. His surprise was great when he climbed the steps with trembling knees and found no angry father there to greet everybody had g<me to bed and that the way to his room was clear.

He pulled off his shoes at the bottom of the stairs and started upward on distance without making a sound he stopped to reconnoiter. Then he started lay perfectly still for a time expecting the worst to come.

"William !" came the clear, firm tones from his father's room.

"Sir," answered Billy in a faint voice.

Silence. It seemed to the weary lad that answer would ne\ er come. Then m a voice that Bilh could hardly recognize ; his father's, in a tone that had lost all its coldness came this startlint; query ;

THE SWINNEY PARK GRAVEL PIT

C WINNEY Park gravel pit is located in the western part of the city, south of Svviii- ney Park. This pit has been the source of supply of a great (leal of sand and gravel used for building purposes in the city. More than two thousand rive hundred dollars worth of sand and gravel was taken from the pit last year. The annual out-put usually amounts to more than two thousand dul-

IVo hundred yards south- east of the Swinney Park gravel pit lies the Brown pit, a much smaller pit but the source of some fine sand and gra\el. The high ridge to the south and west of these pits will furnish the city with an abundance of sand and gravel for many years to come. This super-abundance of sand and gravel within our city limits has decreased the cost of this material, which in turn has slightly decreased the cost of building. The ridge in question is about one-half of a mile long and two hundred to three hundred yards wide. It is the first of a series or ridges which extend six miles to the southwest. Vox island.

The of these ridges together with the wide vallevs on each side, would indicate that thev were formed rely different from existing ones. .And such was the case. The broad vallev to the north was formed by the large inter-glacial Wabash Ri\er, which extended its course to the southwest from glacial .Vlaumee Lake, then co\ ering the level tract of land northeast of the city. This lake, which was formed during the glacial period, in front of the retreating ice sheet, overflowed where Fort Wayne is now located and formed the large inter-glacial Wabash River, which extended its course to the southwest and emptied into the big ^V'abash River near Huntington.

The \alley south of the ridges is the result of the erosi\e power of the St. ,\lar\s river. During intcr-glacial times the St. .Marvs River left its present channel south of Fort Wavne and extended in a westerly direction, uniting with the inter-glacial Wabash beyond I'ox island. Later in its histor\ and probably near the close of the glacial period it shifted its channel to the north and finally turned to the northeast and united with the St. J<iseph Ri\'e the level lands to the north and south of this chain of ridges date from glacial times.

The Periclean Literary Societ\ was organi/.ed September 25, 1401, for the purpose, as the constitution states, of "disciplining and liberalizing our minds." To attain this object has been the constant aim of the Society. Frequent debates full of interest and practical use have been held. A pleasing program was arranged by the society for the school just before the Christmas vacation. A mock trial which drew forth an immense, though somewhat unruly audience, was held under the auspices of the Society last February. Sevtral other meetings of varying character, but uniform interest, gave pleasant evenings to the members and at times also to the friends of the Society. The Periclean Literary Society is not an organization for this year only. It was formed with a view of making it a permanent feature of the High School. A strong ccinstitutKiii gives back-bone to the Society and enough active members will return to school next fall to continue the work so uell hiLZun. Thus the s.iciet\ will not only develop its members as debaters and orators, give them a broad view of noted authors toother with their works, and furnish them with a pleasing vet profitable diversion from their school work, but it will also aid m niakmi: the Fort Wa\ ne High School a truly good place to go to.

The organizmg of the High School Cilee Club was due mamlv to the kind offer of Mr. Miles to direct such a club. An enthusiastic meeting was held Januar\ l6th to perfect an organization, and ever since the club has practiced once a week. It has already attained such high efficiency as a musical body that it has twice been permitted to sing at the morning exercises. The Glee Club also sang at the "Morning Musical" held in the Wayne Club, .April 12, and was applauded very liberally.

The Glee Club is especially remarkable for its splendid tone \ olume with which it often shakes the old buildint; to its foiindatijii, causing the people in it to wonder whether the world is coming to an end. Such distri'ssiiiLiK pathetic melcdies are sometimes evolved from the throats of the gifted singers that stray dogs and cats around the biiildini; begin to howl with sympathy and a horse occasionally gives vent to a musical neigh, clearly mdicatmi; that its musical nature also is stirred up. No rational person can doubt that a glorious future full of fame and laurels is in store for the High School Glee Club.

NAVY BLUE AND GOLD ASSERTS ITSELF AT THE 'oi COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES

When the nieiiihers of "oi were making final preparations for graduation, the\ lirnih resoUeJ that no demonstrations by the Juniors should mar their pe.icet'ul repose. How thev succeeded is alluded to in the "02 histor\ . I'he occasion was so great, howe\ er, that a more complete discussion is appropriate.

The b..\s of the juninr Class were comparati\elv small, and not particularlv distmguished for athletic talents, while the bovs of the Senior Class were lar>;e, stron^-limbcd, viiunuis fellows. .Mentalh', however, the two classes were inversly proportional to their ph\ sical endowments. Kiiowiiil; that the\ must d. |hiuI ii|ic.ii their brains fir Miccessful operations, the Juniors held frequent councils of war, and hnallv succeeded in mapping nut a promising pl.m . .t i .ini|i.iign.

.At last the eventful evening armed. The Juiiiorv, w hn of course served as ushers, appeared in white duck trousers, and dark coats for contrast. Beautiful insignia of the L'lorioiis navv-bluc and irold fastened on bv the 'oi class pins presented themselves to view. This tasteful luiiformitv in dress immediatelv won the hearts of the whole autlience.

The more stirring surprises came a little later in the evening. |ust as the salutatorian had finished her charming address, several of the ushers walked down the aisle with a mysterious bundle in their haiuU. When they were in view of the whole audience, they let go, and lo! three baloons, bearing gorgeous streamers of nav y-blue and gold rose on high, midst the deafening cheers of the spectators. Two of these baloons, like good little children, remained aloft in their e.valted positions, but the third one was wafted about by gentle zephyrs and rose and fell at its own sweet will.

At length it seemed to decide to head for the speaker of the ev ening, who was just then miking his address, though probably no one in the whole theater including the speaker himself could tell what he was talking about at this critical moment. Everybody in the house was bubbling ov er with suppressed excitement Speculation was rife, as to whether the baloon would hit the speaker on his bald spot, and prov e a hair restorer, or whether it would merely graze his nose. The Seniors were nearly wild with shame and anger. Hamilton was ready to faint, and Hopkins looked as though he were about to charge through a foot ball line up. At last after long, long moments of painful suspense and anxiety, the baloon reached the stage, and before it could do any further mischief, one of the musicians made a wild lunge and succeeded in capturing the bold scapegrace.

Before the exciting descent occurred, the valedictorian had made her debut. At the close of her masterly oration, she was presented with a beautiful bouquet of white roses, the class flower of '02, tied by long navy blue and gold ribbons. She did the best thing possible under the circumstances by gracefully displaying the ni>ble colors. Thus another plan had succeeded.

The enterprising Juniors were not v et s.itisfied. At the conclusion of the address bv the speaker of the evening, the ushers in the balcony stepped to the front and unfurled long r.ills of navy blue and gold tissue paper, and tacked them to the balustrade. This concluded the most elaborate, most successful, and most pleasant scries of tricks ever worked at any high school commencement exercises. The friendly character of the tricks is well shown bv the fact that later, both the Seniors themselves and the faculty congratulated the juniors on their success. .Mav succeeding classes, if they desire to assert themselves at commencement exercises, follow the example of Nineteen Two in this regard as in all others, and work harmless, unofFensive, and yet exciting tricks.

.MR. ARIHUR PARRY [f the nosebleed is chronic that, strange to say, invariably occurs

when \ ou come to a place in the lesson which you don't know, you had better do something for it. It is verv dangerous to lose as much blood as you must have lost.

SENIOR

DRAMATICS

Last \\'ednesda\ night at Broadwa\ thea- ter, occurred what the audience declared was the greatest dramatic representation of years. The house was packed to the doors, and thousands vyere turned away.

The caste, which in luded all the theat- rical stars of the .American stage was in especialU tine condition, and the presentation ,,f the ''Professor's Discovery" was marvel- ..us. This result was largely due to the efforts of Mr. Ronald Dawson, who spent

point of efficiency. For once, the Juniors, overawed by the majesty of the Senior class, and not yet forgetful of their recent defeat, remained perfe docile.

The most exciting point in the play came in the street scene, in the second act, when Hardy Night, alias Robert Feustel grace- fully twined his arm " about the waist ot Miss Louise Cutting, alias Miss Grace Smith. It is greatly to be feared that the shock gixen to Miss Cutting by this act of gallantry, has not yet wholly departed.

Miss Elinor Bondy's gracious acceptance of that beautiful and fragrant bouquet, which looked as if it came from a last summer's hat, was another noticable event. Poor little Frank Hamilton was almost broken-hearted

LIVELY SCENES IN

SENIOR SENATE

w

M.^

1902. — i\Ian\ li\el\ scenes were witnessed in th • senate house today. The result is that there are three dead and four seriously wounded Senators. The meeting was called to order by President Parry. The floor was im- mediately yielded to Senator '^"arnelle who offered resolutions to have the usual commencement dance. A heated discussion immediately arose. The gentleman from Kicker County thought that the dance was a good place to show oft" our new duds to the admiring public. He was greeted with effusive ha! ha'sl

In the twinkling of an eye a great tight was on; hot air, spleen and bad bUiod were hurled through the air with the rapidity of lightning; above the tumult was heard: "'S'ou're a Inr!" I'he president shouted \ainl\ for order. In a tit of passion Senator Feustel broke a blood vein and died a most pathetic death. Two others followed suit and three happy souls had escaped the sorrows of this world. The singing of the High School Cilee Club at that moment drowned out the cries of the infuriated senators, and the president recognized a motion for adjourn- ment, which was carried by unanimous ap- proval. The remains of the lamented Feustel will lie in state with those of the others for six weeks without beiii!; embalmed.

The police and detective force take great pride in the capture, as the culprit has made several successful attempts of the same nature.

The civil officers have called out the militia as there are many con- spirators banded together with the convict, and a <;reat uprising is feared.

W'licn iiuer\ iewed, the prisoner smiled blandly and remarked that it was worth six weeks on the bench at hard labor, to cause the police department so much worry and loss

THE PEACE OFFERING OF THE TUSCARORAS

Bv ELIZABETH WILLIAMS, Winner in ihi 'oa Enmit..n Storv Contht.

npHE Great Spirit was aiigiy. His children, the TuNeaniras, had ..tteiuied Him hv ..mitting the vearlv sacrifice of a drove of bison. For niaiiv moons no ram had talleii on the parched ground. The huftaloes had wandered to the westward, seeking fresh grass. No fish could he touiul , cwn thev had sought the depih of the cool ri\cr hottom. The trihe of the Tuscaroras had been wandering, hither and thither, in search of food, but success had not \ ct cmuncd their efforts. The shadows of evening were creeping o\ er the \.ille\ where the red men were campeil for the night. .As the sun sank behind the distant hilltops, it cast Its last taint r,i\ ^ iijimh a lu-.uitiful picture. Through the whole length .ind hreatlth of the \allev were scattered the tents of the Indians. Imiiiiiiij tin . enter of a large group, and conspicuous f..r its si/e and ornamentation, stood the lodge of Pearl Feather, the .hui, I i.^mK surrounding this were the lodges of hi- kiiisnun, as well as his relatives b\ marriage. It was an animated slciic t>i which the sun was bidding farewell. Some of the women were hurr\ ing to the river to fetch water ; others were broiling the remnants of meat, which thev had stored awav when game was plentiful. Children were quarreling and playing. Young braves were jumping and wrestling ; a few were corraling the best and fastest horses, while driving the rest of the herd to the surrounding countrv for pasture.

When the tumult had reached its height, the door of Pearl Feather's lodge was pushed back, and the chief himself strode forth. His robe of newlv-dressed cowskin, white and smooth, covered him from head to foot, and was held as closeh about him as though it were winter. He was of immense stature, and the clinging robe covered, but did not conceal, the lines of his giant frame. .A single pearl-colored feather in the scalp lock indicated his rank, and L'a\e hmi the name the Tuscaroras loved so well. His Va.r was kiiulU and .li-nilu-d ; and he spoke pleasantK to a child who obstructed his path. Upon his leaving the tciu the noise subsided and u.is not renewed until he had g..ne be\ond hearing. With long rapid strides Pearl Fe.ithei ^nxeied the dist.niee lietween the camp and the hills, climbed to .i jutting rock, and there stood motionless, his tall figure sharph outlined against the evening skv. Fhe kindiv face was filled with sorrow, as he stretched his hands to the Nor^h, South, FJast and West, and then to the skv. In his heart he felt that there must be One who would take care of his children. Then, wrapping his blanket about him,' he returned to his lodge.

Forth from their tents came those warriors who were distinguished f the chief and silentlv took their places.

.At last Pearl

Feather broke the silence,—".'

Norip of thi- warriors looked up at this speech, but all reiiiaineil gazing steadfastly on the ground. Again the pipe was rilled, lighted, and returned, and all smoked in silence.

At length, Kahgahgee, the black raven, chief of the medicine men, spoke, — "Mv brothers, let us go to the abode of the Great Spirit, where the waters thunder and roar. There the medicine men will hear in the voice of the God how we can get back our food."

One bv one, the red men showed their approval by a grim nod. Then said the chief, — "My brothers, so be it," and with a wave of his hand dismissed them.

When the last warrior had left the lodge, the curtain was pushed gently back and a beautiful maiden danced in. Wawenaissa, the chief's daughter, was the pride of the whole tribe, and indeed, she was a beautiful picture as she stood for an instant outlined against the dark background of the tent.

As the old chief looked up and saw her standing there, his face lighted up and he held out his arms with a wealth of love in his eves. Then in an instant he became again the Indian, calrri and unemotional. Wawenaissa preceived all these changes, but was not disturbed, and running up tocher father, saluted him gravely. The old chief gazed at her intently and not even his Indian nature could repress the love from shining forth from his eyes. But of what he was thinking, whether his thoughts were sad or pleasant, he gave no sign, and rising slowly made his way out of the tent.

VVawenaissa followed him out, but chose a diri^erent path from the one taken bv her father. Evidently she was looking for someone, for from time to time, she would turn and look behind her. Presently she saw a tall figure half con- cealed among the bushes on one side of the trail. The o;irl knew who it was; for when she saw the figure she smiled to herself and continued her walk along the trail. When slie had come opposite the figure, it took a quick step forward and a voice called "Wawenaissa."

The girl turned with an air of great surprise and said, "Why Nawadaha, is it you.-" The voung bra\e regarded her 1 eproachfully for an instant, then seeing that her eves were running over with laughter he snatched her to him and held her in a long embrace.

"(), Nawadaha," said the girl, "will the Great Spirit be always angry.' My father is so sorrowful."

"We are His children," said the brave; "he will care for us.''

Hv the rising of the sun the ne.\t morning the tribe was on the march, the men on horseback and the women, save Wawenaissa, on foot. Nawadaha, on pretence that his horse was lame, lagged behind and so most of the time kept near his beloved, fcor days the band marched on, until one night, just at the setting of the sun, they encamped where they could plainly hear the roar of the great falls of Ongiara ( Niagara i.

Again the braves of the Tuscaroras sat in council, this time around the open camp fire. Pearl Feather filled the pipe and after each had smoked, he rose and said. "My brothers, the medicine men have listened to the vi ice of the Great Spirit, shall we hear them.'" After the others had expressed their approval, he gave Kahgahgee a sign to speak. "My brothers, the (ireat Spirit is very angry but he Io\es the Tuscaroras and has told us how to please Him. We heard from Him that Wawenaissa, the maiden of highest rank, must be sacrificed to Him. On the day after the full moon she is to paddle out in her canoe and he will be ready to receive her.

As Kahgahgee finished speaking he beckoned Wawenaissa to him and placed in her hand a shell with the totem of the

tribe engraved upon it. As the old chief" saw the symbol of death in the hand of his child, a spasm of agony passed over his face and he made as if he would spring to her and protect her from all harm. Then as he sank back his face became passive and calm, and raising his hand, he gave the signal of dismissal. Kahgahgee with his medicine men took charge of Wawenaissa and led her to the sacrificial tent which was set upon a hill.

It was the e\ening of the third da\ . All this time Nawadaha had spoken to no one. He remained all day in the door of his Idcli'e with his e\es fixed on the tent in which his beloved was imprisoned. But after darkness had fallen on that third night he uakcne.l int.. life aiialii and .piickK made his waN to the tent on the hill.

Do you not know that the Great Spirit is angi\. I must sa\e nn people, (io ni\ hue," aiul raising her face she pressed her lips to his. She was now the chief's daughter, hrm in her pur- pose to die to s.n e her people. The \ciung brave said no more but in his face could be seen a fixed resolve. He took the L'lrl's hand and raiseil it to his lips. Then with a last look into her e\ es he went out leaving Wawenaissa alone in the moon- light night.

.\s the sun began to use the ne\t morning, signs of lite were seen throughout the village, for Wds not this day one of feastini; and reioieiiiu • No more would the\ know the pangs of hunger and want, for Wawenaissa the chief's daughter, the pride of the 'I'uscaroras, was to i;i\e her lite that the tribe might find food and raiment.

When the sun was high m the heaiens the\ began to crowd down to the very brink of the Falls. In a short time the beat of the tom-tom was heard and down the hill c.ime the procession. First came Pearl Feather, sad but dignified, then the .Medicine Men. In their midst walked W aw en.uss.i. Her face was pale but firm. She was decked as for her bridal.

EXPEDITION OF THE "SEVEN AGAINST THEBES"

/^NE evening last June, seven Juniors who are Seniors at present, or at least ought to be, made the noble resolution to become active followers of the "Seven Against Thebes;" in other words, they decided to deck the high school with their colors. Anyone who believes in the doctrine of reincarnation might well have judged from their eloquent speeches and more eloquent actions, that the\ were actuallv the original seven. Their undertaking was nt>t as easy as it seems. 'Tis true there were no walls to demolish nor Thebans to kill, but there was something far worse. King Pluto had sent up Cerberus, or rather his descendant ; for he had onlv one head, which, however, was surely more terrible than the three heads of Cerberus. This furious creature had eves as large as dinner-plates, a fearful growl which sent the cold chills up one's back, and worst of all, teeth like mill-stones. Thus, at least, the reconnoitering agent of the seven described the beast. In addition to the dog, an Irishman and a Cjerman stood guard, both armed to the teeth with corn-cobs, ammonia pistols and rotten eggs.

.At this description, three of the doughtv warriors suddenh remembered that thev were due at home, and the other four were left to discuss what a big "cinch" the original seven had in comparison with their undertaking. .At last the\ adopted the heroic resolution to cut holes in two cans, respectively containing gold and blue paint, to sally boldly pass the school with them, and to scatter the class colors over the entire sidewalk. After considerable deliberation, this resolution was executed, and as fortune favored them ( of course because thev were members of '02 ), they were not molested. Thus their purpose was accomplished, though four pairs of trousers were sadly stained during the exploit.

J A Q^ U E L I N E

JAOUELINK MANNING sat in her cn/.\ little parlor, apparently a prey to her thoughts. With her elbow on the uindovv-sill, one hand supported her head which drooped slightlv forward in a dreamv wav. Her other hand held a little note. Her large brown eves had a vacant stare as she gazed dreamily out at the dull grev sky where long slant rays of carmine told that Apollo had just passed with his fiery team over the western horizon. The beauty and lulling charm of the sky were in no way responsible for the reverie.

The little iic'te in her h.iiul, which had arri\ ed early in the afternoon, had caused her to think over her past life. Her early happy chiklh(>(id h.ul passed before her mental \ ision like a panorama. Now, as the sun is bidding adieu to this side of the globe, she thinks of the time when, as a mhiiiu' t;iil, she had entered a home almost e\ erv thought cf wliu h w .is painful to her e\en imw.

vho happened at that moment to pass the open door, stopped to watch the two, unobserved. Harriet leart was touched by their music and their loneliness. Down deep in her good heart she promised that en should not know the need of a friend as long as she could serve them. She trembled with apprehension that in a short time thev were to attend school with two of their cousins, proud and overbearing children,

ere to^ither oiiU m the evening, as both had work to do after school was dismissed for the day. Cass iKss l{oiisc; Jaipieline had the care of her little cousin Flo, a child three years old. Both children, after ,ul\ .iiit.iL'c ot the privilege of using the library where case after case of books invited their perusal. As a .iw books, Cass was seized by a desire to become a lawyer. Jaqueline, justly proud of his self-gained his hopes .iiul plans.

Ill tluir uncle's home two v ears, they were sent away to school. Cass was to enter a law school to fit the profession he h.ul thosen. |ai|ueline, with the Intention of becoming a teacher, was to complete her studies at a As the schools were .i jreat dist.ince .ipart, the brother and sister could see each other rarely. Between the two had grown a love stronger than anv tie of kinship. It was the lov e of two s\ mpathetic hearts united in a common sorrow. It was indeed

hard tor these to be separated for the first time by such a distance and forced to struggle with hfe's problems alone. Long and painful was the parting scene. Cass, as the older, tried to don a cheerful manner ; but before he could control himself he had dropped to the floor at his sister's feet and covered his face in her lap. It was then Jaqueline's turn to comfort. Tenderly the young girl smoothed the thick dark hair from his broad forehead. She only said : " We shall write each other long letters every week. We'll not forget." Just before the cab reached the station, Cass clasped his sister in his arms and imprinted a lingering kiss on her fair brow. After he had seen her safelv seated in her car he bade her good-bve and entered another train that was to carry him in an opposite direction.

Athough the first few weeks at school were very lonely ones for both, their work occupied their time and they kept in touch with each other by their letters which were eagerly opened and' devoured. After a time Cass often came to mention in his letters a friend and classmate, Carl Allen. Once he wrote "He sympathizes keenly with us for he has known the same sorrow that we have known. He is a very dear, kind friend and I know that you would admire him."

.After they had been away about two years, Cass, in one of his letters, gave Jaqueline reason to believe that he intended to make her a short visit. With the letter in her hand she stood looking out oT the window at the falling snow, when she was startled by the ringing of the teabell As she walked down the long hall, her mind still busy over the letter, she was joined by Professor .Allston, a voung man of pleasing personality and fine intellect.

.As her teacher, he had learned to appreciate Jaqueline's quick, active brain and true womanliness. Though he was a pleasant companion, it was her womanliness which prevented his being numbered among her friends until he had proved himself a true man. .As he had shown himself both manly and courteous, the friendship was a source of pleasure and benefit to both.

This evening, as he walked by her side down the hall, he said that he and his mother were to attend a lecture the next evening, and that he should like her to accomjjany them. This was the first time he had ever asked Jaqueline to accompany him to any public entertainment and she was surprised. She was about to make a polite refusal, then reconsidered the matter and said: "I should like to meet your mother, and shall be glad to go." She noticed that his anxious face suddenly brightened and his whole manner changed. .A few days later, while thinking over the events of that week, she suddenly became aware that this man's regard for her had grown into something dearer than mere friendship — something which she could not return, '^'oung and ignorant of love as she was, she knew intuitively that this man's whole heart was given to her. The revelation caused her no slight regret, for she had found much pleasure in his society.

Some weeks after the first appearance of spring, Jaqueline was thrown into the greatest delight over a telegram from Cass stating that he would arrive in South Hampton that afternoon. So great was her excitement that she o\ erlooked the words, "I bring a friend with me." .As the telegram arriwd about twent\-five minutes before the train was due, she had iust time enough to put on her wraps and go to the station. Down the stairs ami through the long hall she almost ran in her haste. School had just been dismissed, but she did not notice Frank Allston standing in a class room door. When he saw the girl's disturbed manner and flushed, eager face, he determined to follow her unobserved.

.As there was no street car or cab in sight when she reached the street, Jaqueline started to walk to the station. On reaching it she learned that, as a result of a wreck, the train would be late. .A thousand misgivings surged through her mind as she pictured all the horrors of a wreck. She entered the waiting room but, in her aijitation, the air within'was stifling. She wanted to walk and think. Up and down the long platform she paced, a victim of hopes and fears.

When the young professor, standing; in the shadow of a clump of trees, saw the emotion written so clearly on her eloquent face, he longed to tell her of his love and sliare her sorrows. But he knew only too well that the voung girl treasured not a particle of l()\e for hmi. .A deep despair crept into his heart, chilling it as from a blast of an icy north wind, and leaving his face blanched

When at last the train pulled in, Jaqueline saw a cot taken from one of the coaches and carried to the waiting room. On

coming nearer she rcroLnir/ed the dear hue which she unuld know among a thousand' With a low crv she ran to the cot, encircled the injured brother m her arms, anJ toiereil his lace \\ith kisses.

Beside the cot, and clasping one ol' the mails hand- in his, stood a tall broad shouldered voung man with curh black hair and clear i;re\ e\es. Carl Allen looked with tender pitv at the girlish figure kneeling opposite him. She was entirely unconscious ot' her surroiiiidiiv^s 111 her passionate grief. His heart was strangely touched bv her low moan. "Cass, Cass! Speak to me, vour little sister. ()h' spe.ik to me. Dead.' No, no, no' It cannot he. It must not be! O, mv brother!"

The brother opened his eyes and reached out his hand to smooth the glossy brown curls which hung about her temples. The distracted girl caught the hand in hers and covered it with burning kisses. The injured man then spoke but with an etFort— - "Dear sister, don't weep so! I know that it is a sad meeting after our long separation; but He knows best. Carl who has been like a brother to me, has promised, as far as he can, to see that no harm comes to you. So do not crv. Bear up — I shall soon be at rest. Good- bye, Carl. My dear brave little sister — good-bye." As the dying brother's eyes closed in their last sleep, Jaqueline fell into a stupor from which she did not rouse until three weeks later.

When she came to herself in her little white bed at the school, her brother had been buried for more than two weeks. The first objects that met her eves were two clusters of beautiful roses on a little table beside her bed. She took them in her hands to enhale their rich perfume. Down among the leai es were two cards. ( )ii one was written "With the love ot Frank Allston;" on the other simply "Carl Allen." Grateful tears filled her e\es ,iiul trinkled o\er the flowers.

On the last day before returning to his western home, C.ui Allen askeJ to be permitted to see the sister of his lost friend. Harriet Mathews, the retired house keeper of Jaqueline's uncle, had lett her home to care for her young friend. She handed the voung girl his kindly worded note. yaqueline nodded to her to answer the note with "yes."

At the close of the interview, he held out his hand kindly and said, "I should like to take vour brother's place if I can." She smiled sadly up into his eyes, but shook her head. She extended her hand which he pressed warmly, and then was gone.

The remaining two terms of Jaqueline's school life were spent in trying to drown her sorrow by study. She knew that iii the west a \ouiig eastern'teacher could command a good situation. ."Vfter her graduation she applied for and secured a desirable position in the western city of \' — . It was not a large cit\ but a wealth\, prosperous one. Harriet Matthews purchased a little cottaae which Jaqueline tastefully furnished.

Of Carl Allen, Jaqueline had heard nothing except once or twice, accidentalU. A school-mate had placed in her hands some college papers in which his name was mentioned. If he knew that (aqueline had accepted a position in Y — she was not aware that he knew it.

RECESSIONAL

O'er the old school house The shadows softly fall, Over our school davs drawing The curtain once for all.

The next year found us Juniors shrewd, Our heads were now of normal size. That vear we led a busy life ; We realized how fast time flies.

Never again in those dear old halls

Shall we study our lessons more.

For the days when we did so, happiest days,

Are now become the da\ s of \ ore.

The fourth year found us Seniors grav Aged in learning, in years, in ease. Sublime we rested in harbor safe. After we'd passed through stormy sea:

\Vc sit and watch the school house While the mellow soft lights glow.

But the whole four years ha\ e passed a As a fleetly winging dream. Four whole long years in rapid flight Have borne us on their fleetinii stream.

As freshmen we entered the door. Urged by the goads of our parents Nor knew what we had come for.

For one slow moving year The teachers were our gods We trembled at their frown ■And basked in approving no

And now we take a last farewell.

Soon we'll be in a distant land.

Hlessed be these tears which silently drop

From our eyelids moist to this hallowed strand.

.And then we came to the Sophomore year Fo the class where our heads grew abnormally I Where we thought we could do what the tcache And improve on it, too, without charge.
