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

should  he  allow  the

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.

•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.

'o2   Clas5   poem 


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.

When   the  briUiant  class  of  naughty   f 
Had  left  the  grade  school's  open   dooi 
The  teachers   were  dissohed  in   tears 
To  think  of  the  nian\    happ\-  years 
\W"d   spent   with  them. 


We  came  to  the   high   school,   grand   £ 
Past    ro;ys   of  high   school   heroes  b.dd. 
Who   undertook  to  rush  us  in  ; 
This  caused   uproar  and  awful  din 
And   Schult/e's  wrath. 


The  worst  of  trials  a  Freshman  bears 
Are  Sophomores',  Juniors'  and  Seniors' 
It  is  so  long  since  the\  were  green —

And   are   so   wise. 


That  year  ended  as  all  years  will. 
And  we  the  role  of  "Sophs"   do   fill. 
We  sit  on  the  bench  and  think  of  ou 
The   notes,   the  whispers,   the  giggles  ; 
For  which   we  si^h. 


We  struggle  with  history,  Latin  and  Greek  -, 
We  learn  our  mother  tongue  to  speak  ; 
We  juggle  with   letters,   figures  and  signs. 
We  draw   from   life,   make    [apanese   lines — 
Juniors  to  be. 


When   at  the  end   of  two  short   years 
We  Seniors  are,   without   compeers. 
The  town   with   joy   will  celebrate 
The  happy   night  we  graduate

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  '

'I'here's  a   p'reshman   class  that   is   up   to  date. 
It  would  take  at  least  a  year  and  a  dav 
To  tell   voii  of  all   in  this  class   so  gav. 

And  there  are  so  many,   both  large  and   small. 
That   I   reallv   can't   remember  them   all. 
It  is  the  greatest  class   without  a  doubt, 
That  any  one  ever  heard  about.

But   I'm  quite  sure  that   most  of  them 
Will  graduate  in   Nineteen  Ten.

In  selecting  a  poet  would  have  shown   more   prudenc 
But  then  brace  up,   for  the  end  is  near, 
My  term  expires  at  the  end  of  the  year.

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  le\  el  land  south  of  the  ridges  is  drained  bv  large  ditches  which  empt\  into  Little  Ri\  er.  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.  It  i 
speaking  more  scientifically,  these  kames,  were  formed  during  the  glacial  period.  Whether 
of  streams  coming  from  of!  the  ice,  or  of  sub-glacial  streams,  it  is  impossible  to  saw  He 
the\    were  formed  b\    runnini;  water. 


to  form  the  Maumee.  Hence 
also  true  that  these  ridges,  or 
they  are  the  result  of  the  work 
vever,  it  is  ob\iously  plain  that

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.

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.

Keep  right  on   using  our  Demosthenic  \'oice   Restorer.      The 
twehe  bottles  ha\  e  done  you  remarkable  good.      With  a  few  more 
we  think   \  ou    can    make  yourself  heard  at  least  six  feet  from  \our 
te:>.cher,  provided  that  nothing  disturbs  the  inter\  ening  medium. 

.MISS    EDirH    KOSTKR 
We  should  suggest  that  you  do  not  ride  \()ur  pony  ever\    night. 
Occasional    jaunts   may   be   permissable,    but    ton   much    riding  will 
wear  it  to  skin  and  bones.

[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. 

.MISS    DORIS    DIA.MOXD

Last  \\'ednesda\  night  at  Broadwa\  thea-

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-

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

And  dowm  the  stairs  they  raced. 

And  down  there  on  the  street  below, 
Occurred  a  mighty  bout. 
And  the  Senior's  drove  the  Juniors 
In  confusion  and  in  rout.

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.  It 
was  announced  from  the  rostrum  that  this 
prisoner  "was  a  problem  and  should  be  made 
an  example  of."  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 


of  sleep.  He  claims  that  he  was  largely 
bribed  to  do  so  desperate  an  act.  It  is  thought 
that  his  sentence  will  be  three  to  five  days  in 
the  open  air,  with  all  privileges  of  attending 
classes  taken  away.

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. 

leither  looked  up  nor  greeted  the  braves  as  the\  hied  in  and  seated 
e,  and  after  smoking,  handed  it  to  the  warrior  on  his  left,  and  so 
though  the\    were  surx  ing,   the  customs  of  their  fathers  should  be 

brothers,  the  Great  Spirit  is  aiigrv ;  what  shall  \"e  do  to  please  Himr"

.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.  He  led  with  him  a  beautiful  little  Indian 
ponv   Init   as  thc\   lus^,  ,1  aroiiiiil  the  s1cc|imiu  »  iI1,il!c  the\   made   no  sound,    for  Xawadaha  had  bound    upon    her  feet  strips   of 

When  he  re.n  hed  tile  lo.l;je  N.iw  ad.ih.i  opened  the  do..r,  m.ide  a  tew  steps  in  the  gloom,  and  then  called  softly 
"Wawenaissa."  In  .in  iiist.int  the  -ill  w.is  in  his  arm  and  he  strained  her  to  him  with  passionate  fervor.  "My  Nawadaha, 
do  you  not  know  the  t.irture  that  a^^alts  n  o,i  it^ou  aie  lound  h.-iv^       \h    low,  -^o." 

as  he  said  ''Listen,  W.uvenaiss.i,  ,m  white  doi  e.  In  the  bushes  yonder  is  Firefly.  Come 
n  the  trail.  We  will  go  to  the  top  of  some  high  mountain,  where  my  white  due  willbe  safe." 
ul  been  speaking  had  grown  stern  and  pale.  Putting  her  hands  on  his  hps  she  i  iied  ".'^top, 
I  must  remain  here.  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. 
Her  single  i^arment  was  a  flow  ine  sheet  of  dressed  w  hite  cow-skin.  On  her  head  was  a  garland  of  flowers.  Flowers  were 
stre\\  11  o\  er  her  nee  k  .iiul  shoulders  which  were  hare.  .As  the  procession  reached  the  edge  ofthe  water  it  paused  and  formed  a 
I  irclc.  W.iweniiss.i  tor  .in  inst.mt  hesitated  and  swayed  to  and  fro.  l^hen  calming  herself  she  walked  forward  and  stepped 
into  her  lloi^er  laden  i.iiioc.  \'h  km-  up  the  paddle,  she  paused  and  for  one  moment  looked  at  her  father  with  a  yearning 
steadfist  L;a/e.  I  hen  'ji\  iiil:  a  penile  push,  she  paddled  out  into  the  current.  As  she  reached  midstream  a  canoe  shot  out 
lit  trees  that  fringed  the  island  across  from  the  mainland.  In  an  instant  she  recognized  Nawadaha 
s,  LMie  a  low  cry.  But  realizing  how  powerless  he  was  to  sa\  e  her,  she  stood  calm  and  motion- 
iriilk  ofthe  Falls  the  two  boots  touched,  and  leaning  out  the  lovers  clasped  hands.  In  that  one  moment

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.

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

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. 

One  nioriiinLS  on  her  wa\   to  school,    laqiieline  uas  surprised  to  see  a  sign   over  an  office  —  "Carl  Allen,  Attorney-at-Law."

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. 


'the  things 
t  to  its  halls 


•hich  have  happened. 


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. 


IV.      Four  long  years  ago 

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


X.      We'll  ne\  er  forget  thee,  dear  old  scho( 
Xor  our  teachers,  true  and  kind. 
Nor  those  rollicking  years,  the  happies 
Of  our  lives,  which  are  left  behind. 


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.
