A great deal of stress was la id on getting out satisfactory c uts a nd printing so th a t the expenses were greater: The business men whose ads you see in this Cbss Book expec t r eturns from the ir public reminders. Don't forget that this a nnua l would be a n impossibility were it not for these few loyal business men. Therefore, we humbly beg you to patronize these advertisers.

And into this forest the Great K eeper sent his helpers saying: "Gather me out now the young of a ll the beasts-tha t we may teach them things hitherto unknow n to them; tha t they may learn to a ct almost as if they were men and w omen ; for I have a purpose in my heart concerning them." And so the helpers drove them in- the lion cubs and the young ti gers, the ba by el epha nts a nd the monkeys, the rubberneck gira ffe and the jumping kanga roo, bea rs a nd d eer a nd wolves a nd hippos- eve ry sort of beast was there ; a nd the tra iners began their work. And some were stupid and could not learn, and some were la z.y and w ould not ; a nd to these all was a dreadful task, only underta ken because of the fea r of the tra iners lash ; but to others the work became interesting and they pressed fon.va rd eagerly-some because they enjoyed the w ork and some for the sake of the reward held out to the proficient. Lots of suga r mad e them eager to do as they were ta ught. Step by step these la tter ad vanced until a t length they a ttained to the pri\ il eges and tria ls of enterin g into the great enclosure of the H ead K eeper, a nd of sometimes being allowed to display some of their a ccomp lishments be for e mankind. And they dwelt under his ca re for four long years; a nd ma ny things befell them, so tha t time would fail to tell them all. And this was the manner of their training: Diligently they labo red on new stunts d ay by d ay , and then when the peopl e ga thered in the great enclosure a t sta ted times those who had shown themselves the most agile a nd most " tricky" were allowed to perform. Once a year also they were allowed to roam aga in through their na tive w ilds to try if they were really being won away from savagery . - 81- 853740 In the first year of their stay they were most cruelly trea ted by hostil e beasts whom they found already within the enclosure The manes of the young lions were cut off; the bea utiful fawn s were caught and striped -like tigers and spotted like leopards; the monkeys w e re caged in locked e nclosures and showered with water; yea, and they w ere made to run through a long lane of flat hard branches that fell on them violently as they hastened by. And some were disheartened and turned back again to the forest and were heard of no more, but the great part persevered. And some were given blue suits and guns and learned to drill just like soldiers; it was really wonderful that young animals should do so well. And the y learned by degrees to wait their turn for food and not to snatch and scramble. They watched with wonder and amazement while the older and better trained animals gave exhibits of their skill-and at the end of the season a few of them were even allowed to compete with these older beasts in running and jumping, but without success. Then they went away for a time into the forest- ·-and lo, the second season was come. And by much reiteration they learned to say quite plainly, "C-C-- Cou-NN-Cil-Council Bluffs High School!" Likewise to know the difference between Rugby and other football. And since they were but animals they hastened to visit upon the new animals all the cruelties and even more, of which they had been the victims. At this time they likewise learned that since the shortest distance between two points is the straight line which joins them, it is clearly demonstrated that the longest way round is the shortest way home. They had trainers for everything; a Beverage trainer; and two Rice trainers (one of the great trials which the carnivorous animals had to undergo, was to learn to refrain from devouring the other beasts) a Reed-ing trainer-a Bender also. The Thrush abandoning her natural vocation taught only "clickety clack" and the great Roman Pilum trainer taught, instead of war, the ways of peace and the romance of star gazing. There was also one who taught them to build pyramids and cast balls-and another who bade them stand upright and roar violently, waving with their paws meanwhile. One also much grieved them because, oft when the young lion wished to prowl about at night he restrained him. And in this season some of the animals made the tumbling troupe who did the "Football Stunt" in the autumn performance-the elephant making center and the lion quarterback. One performance also was a trial between animals of different p e riods- and ID this, the "Basketball Act"-our animals were successful in winning second place. In the field contest also they took third place. And so the season drew to a close and again they were permitted to roam ID the cool dark forest. When again they returned to the great enclosure, behold, a new Ring Master had been installed; but the old keeper stayed yet a while that the beasts might become accustomed to the change. And some began to read and arrange letters so that they would spell real wordsand to wave their paws and roar mightily-so that the Echoes returned unto them even from the heights of old Gibraltar. At this time a great blowing match ensued between the femal es and the mal es of the Melta Kow and Aerophilian troupes in which the Melta Kows demonstrated their superior ability and were rewarded by being allowed to drink from a golden cup for a year long. A great catastrophe at this time occurred. Many rats had stolen secretly into the enclosure and had built great nests among the long hair of the females and it was impossible to dislodge them. In the great debating troupe at this time many of these animals showed much ability to chatter and even some glimmering effort to use a reasoning faculty. At least six-a fox, a deer, a lion, a tigress, a bear, and a leopard-a ttained honorable mention a t this time. Likewise they warred with those older ones who had so cruelly abused them in the beginning-and the battle was furious, so that the trainers said: "Wha t is the use? Once a beast, always a beast." But the Great Trainer said, "Not so. These are but the last dying outbreaks of the old wild animal. Have patience and you shall see. " And it was true for, behold! they forgave these, their enemies, and did pleasantly entreat them and offered them a pleasant place for a sojourn where they might enjoy themselves for a few hours before they were sent out from the enclosure forever. And now for the last time the keepers assemble them within the great park a nd it looks very goodly. to them and they remember all the years of their sojourn and marvel that the time has been so short. And because the "Football Troupe" does not warm up to their work the Ring Master is angry and throws away the football. But otherwise, behold how these animals have been tamed and trained. 'Tis true that some lingering traits remain-the lion is still regarded as king, even though he is so tame that he will eat from a girl's hand-the elephant retains his bulkthe monkey cannot refrain from occasional grimaces and monkeyshines for which reason he is oftener in disgrace than any other- the peacock still struts and spreads his shining feathers- the d eer are still d ears- the tigress rages fearfully on occasion and the bear with the sore head growls a t every opportunity. But in some things they do mightily excel. The kangaroo can jump farther than any animal in this or the neighboring forests. Fleet of foot are they a lso and can make great letters hanging by their toes over steep precipices and ca n mount great and dizzy heights for the honor of their mystic number. From being afraid of the flaunting red flag of the trainer they have come to love it dearly- so tha t the highest re·ward to ea ch seems to be grea t streamers of red and white bound about their bodies. They have learned to stand upright so much that it seems a lmost natural; and they wave their paws about violently and pretend to discuss great political questions as if they really thought like men. These did much work in the performances in this season, both in the "Debatin Troupe" and in the "Basketball Troupe." Others played musica l instruments and on! made pictures; some a lso were magicians and drew mystical fi gures which cause the whole city to wonder- but a dire calamity overtook these so tha t they were covered from head to foot with great yellow spots like unto the plague. A nd now they begin to find the thrall of beast life irksome and some are even tempted to break the Great Keeper's rules. Some breaking from the enclosure, try a "Wild Indian Stunt" on the streets, \.vhich much terrifies some people and a horse or two- but they are quickly recaptured . Likewise, the Aerophilians at this time wm from the Melta Kows the privilege of drinking from the golden cup. And they determine they will plant a mighty staff and from it shall flaunt for aye the colors·they so dearly love-the red and the white, the stripes, with the stars of our nation entwined. But gently and persistently they are led slowly and surely on toward the goal set before them from the day of their entrance. They are soothed with music--they are adorned with new garments- they are coaxed and feasted and allowed to frolic as never before-they begin to sec dimly what the life of men and women may be like. And then comes the final-the last day of training. All arrayed in their newest finery-when the band strikes up the Pilgrims Chorus from T annhauser they come marching into the last performance-the trainers marching on ahead. Each one finds his accustomed place for the last time and faces the great crowd with fear and trembling. They are not allowed at this time to show the remarkable feats they have learned to perform, for a man, a mere man, has the floor which they have so often trod. They try to listen-but some of them nod weariedly until the Great Trainer rises up. Then ·they are all attention as he begs the audience to watch the miracle he is about to perform. Calling each by name he gives to him a little talisman bearing the magic colors, red and white-and pronouncing the mystical formula-lo, these beasts, gathered from the forests of ignorance, are transformed before the eyes of all into men and women-no longer to be penned in the Keeper's enclosure, but sent out to do the world's work and learn Life's lessons-For Life ls Now Their School. And with one mighty roar they put aside their old beast ways forever and went out from the enclosure sadly for they had learned to love it. - 34 - :i.L _ _ ~ibraltar U nto Thee, 0 grim Monarch of the ages, Do we leave the care of future Senior classes.

G. OJ:lann Jrnµqrrn RIP VAN WINKLE, UP-TO-D ATE. It was a glorious a fternoon in September. The sun had just passed the zenith a nd was now well on his journey towa rd the western horizon. The a ir was still a nd motionless and the leaves on the trees hung inert and lifeless. Insects, buzz ing past, hummed away through the heavy air. The cows in a nearby p astu re stood kn ee-d eep in a cool pool of wa ter and lazily switched away the Ries tha t tormented them. I observed these details from the dusty road along which I was tramping. Presentl y I turned o ff from the road and started to climb the woody slope a t my left. The cool sha d e .of the leafy boughs looked immensely inviting and a fter advancing a few rods into its sha dowy d epths, I threw myself down upon the ground and indulged my tired limbs in p eaceful rest. Gradually, the hum of the fli es and gna ts grew fainter and fa inter, a nd the li ght gla nc in g thro ugh the tree. tops, dimmer. Finally, I closed my eyes and floa ted o ff on a iry w ings to the realms of M orpheus. When I awoke it was ea rly morning and the birds we re tw ittering a nd calling to ea th other in the tree tops. The sun was just lifting up his lustrous countena nce above the eastern hills and fl ooding the dewy ea rth with his radi a nt bea ms. A s I a rose to loo k about me, a little "cottontail" whisked away a cross the slope. When I tri ed to w a lk my bones creaked and I knew I would have a hot-box in short order if some lub ri ca tor was not applied immediately. I looked a round me. The scene ha d undergone no changes as far as I could see, but stra ngely, I could not tell where I was or how a nd when I had gotten there. "My sa kes !" I excl a imed to a mossy stump nea rby . "This is a pretty mess, sleeping out here on the d amp ground has given me a siege of rheuma tism that will take seventeen bottl es of Wiza rd Oil to cure. Serves me ri ght. The fe ll ow s will certainly bawl me out for not having sense enough to come home to roost. 8 ut it can't be helped now, and I may as well go back to the " d en" a nd face the music li ke a Dutch bandmaster." ;j fj - Having delivered myself of this lengthy soliloquy, I started through the trees in the direction that I thought town was. I trudged on stiffly, something like a dignified monument, and was almost despa iring of ever reaching the "den" when I came upon a curious structure, half cabin, half dug-out in the side of the hill. In the doorway a very odd looking old crone sat stroking the furry back of a la rge black cat, while over her head on a perch a pa rrot d anced and cried out monosyllabl es now and then merely as a sample of its .vocal powers. As I approached, Polly called out, "Hey there! Hist a long you old fright! Beat it!" I assure you my gentle reader that this was a rather startling reception to one in the condition I was. Nothing da unted me, however, and I dre\>v nea rer and addressed our ancient friend. "My good woman," I said soothingly, in way of preface, "can you give a starving wanderer something with which to satisfy the pangs of hunger and thirst?" She started and the cat, whose tail had swollen to the size of a stovepipe, scampered off into the interior of the shack. "Wha t do you mean by coming up here to bother a poor woman trying to forget the world and your hateful sex. Is it not enough that I have lived here twenty years in solitude and now you come to pollute my sight? Alas, I can find no solace even m loneliness; but I demand my rights. Leave my refuge and never more dare set foot in these sacred precincts!" I was somewha t startl ed by this sudden and unprovoked invective. I stood motionless several seconds contemplating that withered and sallow compl exion. "S'dea th ! " I exclaimed, "I have seen that physiognomy before. Now I have it. Art thou not the once far-famed Mrs. P ankhurst?" "Mock me not, stranger," this place if you value yo ur life. I prefer to breathe pure air!" she returned in a menacing tone. "I wa rn you, leave I am she whom you have just named-but begone, as I saw it was useless to argue with our British fri end so I turned away weary and fa int with hunger. After I had tramped on an hour or so I came into the suburbs of a great city. I had never before in all my life seen anything like it. Talk about N ew York? Why, N ew York isn't on the map anymore. Immense buildings, seventy-five ~d one hundred stories hi ~. reared their lofty pinnacles into the az ure sky. Airships flitted here and there, alighting on the tops of various buildings to take on and let olT passengers.. As I wa lked down one of the streets I met the most strangely dressed pea.pie. All the gentlemen wore silk hats and the ladies all dressed in the same style. This la tter phenomenon staggered me since I had been ace t d t JI f . c us ome o a ma nner o con- triva nces produced by the milliner's artful hand Auto h' ) d d d d ·f · s w Ir e up a n own; a n 1 · I had seen a horse I w~uld have greeted him as a long lost brother. At each corner there was a Ri ght of sta irs leading below the surface at th t f h. h h · . , e op o w 1c t ere was a sign that bore the legend, "SUBWAY STATION." S uddenly I was seized with an uncontroll able desire to inspect one of the largest office bmldmgs I had passed. I entered the lobby and began to sea th d . t f n e n ee ory ·or a familiar name. " Great Caesa r! " I suddenly exclaimed. "What do you know about this: 'R. THORNELL M AUER, Instructor of Voice and Piano, H a rmony a nd Theory ; $6.00 per hour. Pupil of T elka, Razamosky and Paderewski ; Room 2104. ' I jumped into an - 31- elevator that was about to go up and soon I was landed on the til ed floor of the twentyfirst story. I looked for 2104 and to my infinite joy the door of the reception room stood ajar and I walked in and settled myself rather heavily in a huge arm-chair. Through the tramom, over the ground-glass door that bore the sign 'Prof. M a ue r, Private,' there emanated the sounds of a female voice struggling with this excerpt, "Ah-a h , th-th-the fluahs thot blook-m in the spring-tide, dawling,' followed by several agil e gymnastic feats on the chromatic scale. "Suffering Shoelaces!" I groaned when she rendered an A fl a t, C natural. S uddenly Mr. Mauer' s booming basso broke in on the warbling: "It ees not zat \Vay M a mse ll e , you should place ze tip of ze tongue against ze lower teeth and open ze la rynx lo a n angle of 57° 42' 18" and produce ze syllable 'ah'." The girl again, according to the professor's directions, shot up and down the scale with incredible rapidity. After a few minutes parley the door was thrown open and the great virtuoso followed out a fas hionably dressed young lady who flounced out of the studio with the usua l affectation peculia r to girls of a certain type. Mr. Mauer, not recognizing me at first approached with a deferenti a l a ttitude , mquiring what he could do for me. "I say, old chap, you can give me something to eat if you don't mind, don't you know," I cried, "I am w hungry that even Ba iley's beans would taste li ke a porte rhouse smothered in onions." "By Jove, it's you, L. W.," exclaimed Dutch Dingle, wringing my hand. "How on earth-why man alive, you've been dead fifteen years." "I can't help that," I returned exasperated, "I don't care w hether I've been d ead a hundred and fifteen years. I'm hungry as a bear and I know I can't hold out much longer. Give me something to eat and let's discuss my d eath afterwards. " "That's alright, old man," said M a uer with a la ugh. H e touc hed a bell b y the door-jamb, which brought a _many-buttoned bellboy into the room. " Did yer ring, sir?" he asked. "Yes, tell Delmonico's to send up dinner for two in 2 104 a nd be quick about it. " "Yes sir," and the apparition vanished. Ten minutes elapsed and finally a knoc k a t the door announced the arrival of o ur dinner. T he waiter entered and disposed of the viands on the center-ta ble and we proceeded to direct a couple of 12-inch siege guns on the edibles in question witho ut a ny polite delay. I answered M auer's numerous questions in monosy ll ables between bites. By the time I had gotten rid of any ordinary man's ra tions for a week he had pumped the whole story of my strange adventure out of me. "Would you kindly tell me," I said at last, "what town or city this is?" "I see, your long nap has sadly muddled your think machine. W hy, this is Counc il Bluffs, the capital of the state of Iowa, and we are in a small division known as O maha." " But, what about the river." I asked. " The city has been built over the river. If you take the Riverside Subway a nd get off at the I 12th street station and walk nine blocks north you will find the o ld Missouri rushing into a big tube tha t flows under the city. "How large is this town?" I asked agam. ::.'I - --- --- - "Well, the city includes old Council Bluffs, Omaha, South Omaha, Florence, Benson and the Orpheum." I sniffed the air. "Where are the packing houses?" I inquired. "Oh, they were run out of here six years ago. They've all moved · to Chicago, and say by the way, you remember Swede Spooner." "I should say I do," I answered. "Well, he is president of the United Packing Company of America, and Boylan is the head attorney of the firm." "You don't say so!" I said incredulously. "Oh, he was always sort of windy chap, so it's no wonder." "Is this a trust?" I asked as a matter of course. "I should say not!" exclaimed the professor, contemptously. "There is no such thing any more. Senator Long from Iowa introduced a bill into Congress that busted the trusts wide open. They have been forgotten and their bones moulded to dust." "Marvelous," I muttered, squelched. "Speaking of Congress," continued the pupil of Tekla, Razamosky and Paderewski." In the recent eledions, Gretzer was elected United States representative from the Ninth district of Iowa and just last session he made a speech that brought tears to the large chandelier in the House and curses to the lips of the reporters." "But you've told about all the fellows. \};! here are the girls? Aren't they still on the job?" "They surely are," babbled our friend from the Zuyder Zee. "Look at this," handing me a noon edition of The Nonpareil. I read: Special lo The Daily Nonpareil New Y ork-ln the final returns as counted last night, Miss Genevieve Lowry, formerly of Council Bluffs, Iowa, has been elected president of the Women's International Suffrage League. Miss Lawry's term will begin June I and will extend over a period of four years. The president-elect has been an active coadjutor of Woman's Suffrage since the disappearance of Mrs. Pankhurst in 1916. "Great Guns!" I exploded. "And it was I that ran on to that old fossil out there in the Bluffs somewhere. I guess she had started for Re t t d no o ge new converts an they put her off here.

Just then a pupil entered and Prof. Mauer went into the studio, leaving me 111 company with a morning edition of the New York Times. To my surprise I read on the front page this item: Major-General Lloyd Goldsmith of Missouri spent a few days in Boston with Gibson, of the Twenty-third Artillery. And down in the corner : the D epartment of the his fri end C olonel Otto Mr. James Leaone, Professor of Archeology a t Y a le, ha s just returned from an extended trip through Assyria a nd Egypt in search of ma terial for his new book, "How the Pyra mids w ere built."

Herr Deffenbaugh is an eminent German composer who has taken Paris, Vienna and London by storm on account of his wonderful genius. We will expect great things of this new maestro in the future. · "Well," I commented to myself, "as the darky said, 'De world do move.' Look at this:" Mrs. Rolland Selman of 1902 5th Ave., will entertain the Baroness Valse, nee Ruth Hendricks, next week.

Dalton, formerly Miss Mary Frank of this city. had unearthed the old 191 I Class Book from a pile of books under the table and was looking over the worn pages and recalling the good old times we used to have al the High School when Mauer, having got rid of his pupil, came and sal down beside me. "Here's several people I haven't been able to find out what they are doing. Tell me where these are." He followed my finger as I pointed out several people. "Raleigh Pryor? Why, he's the owner of a big cattle ranch down in Arizona. Worth a couple of million from what I've heard." "Mary Virtue? She is a missionary in India. I've heard that she is doing excellent work there in the way of erecting schools and hospitals." Isle. "Lucille Besley? Alas! Her name is no longer Besley." "What is it?" I asked innocently. "Don't ask such embarrassing questions," returned the genius with mock dignity. "Where are Bess Montgomery and Gladys Ellsworth?" I inquired. "They're in Europe. Paris, I believe," answered our friend from the Emerald "There's Irene Van Fossen," he continued. "She was here just last week on a concert tour. She was studying with Menkoff when I was in Leipzig. Mary Chapman is a teacher of elocution and dramatic arts in some Young Ladies' Seminary in the East." "Here are several more. How about them?" I asked turning the page. "Well, Florence Tibbits is in Y. W. C. A. work; Lucille Brackett is teaching Latin in Main High and Wennie Howe is National Secretary of the W. C. T. U. And the rest of the girls"-- "Don 't say they've joined the Salvation Army," I warned him. "No, not that bad. They're married." "Tough luck," I commented, settling back in my chair. "By the way, how many High Schools are there here now?" "Six," he answered. "Main High, Central High, West High, Dodge High, Lafayette High and North High." "Great Caesar!" I howled. 'Tm dingy; now there's no use talking, this world moves like a razor-back hog, greased at that." "Well, I should say so," rejoined the Master of Harmony and Technique. "And if you let it get ahead of you, you never can catch up." "I don't care, "I returned. "I consider it some honor to say that I graduated with such an illustrious bunch, anyway, and it's too bad that I'm the only dead one among them." -- It has been the custom for some years past for the graduating class to give a class play. Some years they have acted out the prophecy, and others they have played light dramas. This year the class of I 9 I I will play "A Scrap of Paper," or "Adventures of a Love Letter." This is a French comedy drama in three acts. The plot is exceedingly lively and full of comic incidents. The play is based on the courtship of a young gentleman and a young lady. They carry on quite an extensive correspondence, using a small statuette as an exchange. On leaving her one evening he becomes engaged in a duel, and is wounded, rn that he is unable to go to the statuette to get her letter. The next morning the lady is taken away and married to a jealous baron. After an absence of three years, and a tour around the world, the young man returns to find his former sweetheart married. It is now the young man's turn to explain why he did not save her from being married to this jealous old baron. During his explanation it developes that the letter was never received. The principal plot is the recovery of the letter without the baron knowing anything about it. But it is finally recovered and burned, leaving the baron with only a suspicion.

In order tha t no one sh a ll be offended, we wish to expla in to those who can't ta ke a joke, and wouldn't recognize one when they saw one, that these "reasons why you are p opula r" are meant to be sarcastic; there fore, don't feel flattered if you are accredited with some lovely cha racteristic tha t you know isn't one of yours. The w riters of these have hired specia l bodyguard s to protect them from any possible a ttack, therefore, don't a ttempt a nything rash. WHY WE ARE PROUD OF OUR CLASS. T he Juniors have taken leading parts in a ll the organizations of the school for the p ast year a nd have won many vic tories of which they a re proud. - 51- -. ·-.· ....: ....: ·- - ~ To the class of 191 1 , we, as Sophomores, bid a fond fa rewell, wishing you a bright a nd prosperous future. Our class, 1 24 strong, has made a n excellent showing during our career. We a re a live and active class, giving the school our hea rty co-operation in all of its branches of work. During our Freshma n year vve did not, appa rently, accomplish much in basketball, but the foundation was la id for our brilliant showing this year. The team this year, consisting of Asa Ba ker, F rank Giles, Frank Officer, Edward Pheney and Arthur L ennox, with H arry C rowl as captain, won seven out of eight games. P a rt of these were out-of-town teams, which they had scheduled of their own accord, a thing never d one by a ny class team before. T hey also won the Tri-City Sophomore championship a nd completed their success for the year by winning class championship, thus breaking a long chain of victories claimed by the Seniors. Our team is now in fin e condition for even better work next year. W e are well represented in the Cad ets a nd two of our number are corporals. In litera ry .,,,·o rk we a re by no means lacking. As Freshmen, three of our class, W a lter Short, H arold Barr a nd H a rry C herniss, won the deba te with the Omaha F reshmen by a unanimous d ecision. T hese three have again honored their class this yearH a rry C herniss, by helping to defeat Oma ha a third time; Walter Short and H arold Barr by their excellent d ebatin g at the Inter-Society contest and H a rold Ba rr again by w inning the gold med al for a declamation in the Oratorical a nd D eclamatory Contest. The girls' basketba ll team has not made a brilliant showing this year ; but has been doing a great d eal o f good practical work a nd tra ining. O ur Sophomore Echoes' notes this year have been unusua lly good, being full of lively class news written with a class spirit. Our editor, H a rold Barr, has also illustra ted the notes a t va rious times by appropriate cartoons which have added greatly to the spirit and success of the work.

C reeping into the hall, we gazed fearfully around at the maze of rooms before our wondering eyes. Passing laughing groups who promptly called out "F reshie ! ", we blushed and bolted through the first friendly doorway, only to find ourselves in the wrong room, and then escaped, covered with confusion. But worse was yet to come-some of our most dignified members wandered to school one morning with hair cut in the most approved style, and faces fantastically painted. Is it any wonder we failed to recognize our fri ends in these subdued individuals with sadder--but-wiser expressions? We were, to say the least, inhospitably treated, and resolved that the next "F reshies" should receive a kinder welcome from us. F reshies were everywhere, quite filling the building-indeed, the 191 4 class was one of the largest. Not only did we excel in quantity but quality. Few have dropped out, showing the perseverance of our class to be greater than that of previous classes. Although green at first, after undergoing the frosts of winter we lost that verdant air which the second semester class vainly tried to conceal. Speaking of games, have you seen our basketball team play? We are proud of our team. With James Leverett as captain, excellent work has been done by the boys. Although they lost the games with the Sophs, Juniors and Seniors, they deserve commendation for their pluck and perseverance, and will no doubt win laurels in the near future. We also boast of a very clever debating team. As a result of conscientious study , they had an intimate knowledge of the subject. This, coupled with fluency in speech and skill in diction, left no doubt as to the judges' decision in the d ebate with Omaha. Thus we are becoming more acclimated to High School atmosphere and hope to be a credit to old C. B. H. S. Everyone takes interest in, and many actively support, the various organizations. Some are identified with the cadets; others have won fame in the literary work or athletic field; still others show remarkable talent in musical organizations. The splendid progress made thus far will. if proportionately increased, make the class of 1914 the banner class.

HAROLD BARR Freshmen. . . . . . . . . . . . .. ED. SPETMAN The managers of the Echoes for I 91 0-1 1 believe that Volume X has surpassed all other years. There was a new cut for the cover every month, a thing which in itself is an advancement over the foregoing volumes. The largest single issue ever printed was published as the Christmas number. The whole staff worked together lo turn out a good paper, not leaving it entirely to two or three to see that the paper had sufficient material. A new department was added on account of the organization of the Shakespearean Dramatic Club. It will probably be necessary next year to add a new member to the staff to take care of this new department. Last year, only the Senior number was arrayed in the class colors, but this year, in order to make the paper more wholly representative of the school, the Junior issue was likewise printed in their class colors. Another asset of Volume X of the Echoes was their exchange list. It was one of the largest ever boasted by an Echoes staff. High School papers were received from every direction; from M aine to Washington, and Minnesota to T exas. Leaving the Echoes on good terms with a ll the business men of the city and leaving it with such a high standard of success, the departing staff hope that their successors will strive their hardest to excel the nine issues of Volume T en. .. ::· 'l .•. ·.· ·. - .:!:. ;..-: - -: - ::-- --..-. = - :- - = ::5 - 60- Philomathian is a name d estined to live long after our bonds of school life here are broken. Especially will we Seniors look back on the year 191 0 - 191 1 as a year to be remembered in Philo history, partly because of the fact that, for us, it is the culmination of four years' loyal effort to boost old Philo, pa rtly because of the splendid ranks of underclassmen we see coming up to fill our places, and partly because 'vve feel a deep and growing interest in the splendid progress of dear old Philo. Philomathian, by the aid of her brilliant sons, Harold Barr, \Valter Short, and Frank White, has regained the coveted Inter-Society cup from our historic rivals, the Delta Taus. It was a fight well fought out-a credit to coaches Brindley and Sayles. On February 3 we met Fort Dodge and Sioux City in the triangular debates, in which Council Bluffs was indecisively defeated again. Out of the six team members, the Philos furnished four, calling to mind an unusual state in our society. Out of a membership of between fifty and sixty, we were able to furnish different and brilliant material for the Sioux City, Fort Dodge, Inter-Society, and Omaha d ebates, a condition that speaks well for the work of Coach Brindley and the literary work in our school. The closing year has seen a new innovation-a Glee Club, composed of Philo members. Under the leadership of Miss Bar its members have spent many pleasant hours in practising. Their work indicates that another season will witness a splendid success. As we write, the a nnua l Oratorical and D eclamatory Contest is the center of attention. Philo will be ably represented by Robert D a niels and C harles Barr as orators, and by H a rold Barr and Walter Stillman as declaimers. We predict either a victory for the Philos or at least a fi ght worth remembering. Also our annual banquet looms up a head, promising some good and original toasts and a jolly time together. This, in brief, is the record w hi ch the Philo officers, President M a uer, Vice President Spooner, Secretary D aniels, Treasurer Bauman and Sergeant-at-Arms Boylan present to you for Philomathian. - Gl-- '.:"· - 62- DEL TA TAU High on the tap of a hill in the Bluffs forest stood a beautiful castl e-C. B. H. S ., or "Old C. B.," as it was lovin gly called, the winter abod e of the fairies. What an abode it was! From September until June, happy littl e beings might be seen flitting about, la ughing and frolicking in the gayest possible manner. An ideal winter night. The amusement hall was filled. F airies from a ll of the surrounding woods had been invited to hear a contest between five of the D eltas and five boys of a similar group. All at once light strains of fairy music were heard. Then appea red the queen of the Deltas, Ruth by name, followed by two pages and five each of elfin boys a nd girls. What a pretty sight it was. All save one of the ma iden elves wore shimmering dresses of the lily. while she was adorned in the velvety petals of the pink rose. First came Mary, then M arion J ., the fairy rosebud, then M arion S., G enevieve a nd Eva. Of course the Deltas would wi n! But a las, vv hen a ll was over these littl e maids were given only two points, while the boys were given three. At C hristmas time, the woodland elves were once more call ed to the music ha ll, where they were delightfully entertained by Delta Tau story, with recitation and Glee C lub song. One never-to-be-forgotten night, the Deltas were proud to send one of their number, together with some Philos, to a distant wood, Ft. Dodge by name, to engage in a debate with the High School team of that city. On the same night a D elta Tau and two Philos met at Bluff Castl e and exchanged ideas with some elves from the Sioux City Woodl and s. Although the fa iries of Bluff forest were a bit unfortunate, at one place at least they were quite sure they won. In the last grea t revel, the fairy maidens ga ined thier victory over the elfin boys. Two beautiful golden cha rms were given to the Deltas, whil e the boys received only one. T hus in triumph, the fai ry maidens of D elta Tau closed the yea r of 19 1 I . Never before had these littl e beings worked so hard and fai th full y fo r their dea r winter home, C ouncil Bluffs High School. 1;:; - ,..., ~ •.• - r;~ - The year 191 1 has seen the birth of an organization, different m nature from any of the other organizations ef the school, and still it runs parallel with them all. The Dramatic Club was organized during the last semester of the school year and, while just in its infancy, it has made a name for itself and extended its helping hand to the Orchestra. When the Orchestra gave its annual recital, the club assisted by g1vmg a one act comedy, entitled, "Neve r S ay Die." This was an overwhelming success and proved that there was rea lly some ta lent in the club. Mr. Brindley, Mr. Sayles and Miss Sprague coached a nd directed the players and d eserve to be complimented on their success. Next year it is planned to have a regular course of study and a nalyze some of the more famous and classical plays, which is sure to be interesting. It is a lso intended that the club shall make one or two public appearances, g1vmg some play by a famous author. W e lose seve ral of our members this year and a re sorry to see them go, for they represent the best tha t there is in school and their loss will be felt by the entire school. The members and officers of the club are as follows: President, Theron Gretzer; Vice President, Grace Gunn; Secretary, Eva Bullock; Treasurer, William M axwell; Sergeant-at-Arms, Robert D a ni els; Ruth H enderson, M a ry C hapman, Roy M a uer, G eorge Spooner, John Long, Lorah Aldrich, P ea rl M eikl ejohn, M arian J arvis. - 66 - The girls' Glee Club was organized last year and has proved to be a successful organization. All of the members will agree that they derive a great deal of pleasure as well as good training from the rehearsals, under the direction of Miss Barr, and their singing is always highly complimented by every audience they appear before. The membership is somewhat larger this year than last. All of the girls are either members of the D elta Tau Literary Society or expect to become members next year. Those who are not Delta Tau at present are some of the younger girls who have good voices and are a necessity to the Glee Club, but who could not gain admission to the Delta Tau this year on account of the membership limit. The members of this year's Glee Club are as follows : First Soprano-Mattie Green, Ada Spetman, Bury! Colip, Violet Anderson, Eleanor Fuller, Gertrude Ellis, Cora Quick, Mary Virtue, Mary Chapman, Ruth Henderson. Second Soprano-Grace Gunn, Hazel Smith, Ethel Anderson, Marian Jarvis, Mary Aid. Alto-Charlotte Maxwell, Elizabeth Martin, Edna Blakely, Beth Martin, Merle Blackburn, Grace Hughes. The first productions of the Glee Club for this year were presented on December 23 in assembly, the Christmas program being in the hands of the Delta Tau. The numbers rendered were: Sullivan's "Lost Chord" and "He Feedeth His Flock." The brotherhood of the First Presbyterian church honored the Glee Club by asking them to sing at one of Dr. Luccock's services. Everyone liked the "Lost Chord," so much that it was repeated at this time, together with several hymns. Miss Barr and the girls were pl eased to be able to grant this favor which was very much appreciated. Perhaps the Glee Club did its best work on the evening of March 24, when the orchestra gave its annual concert assisted by the Glee Club and the newly organized Dramatic Club. On this occasion they sang three numbers : 1. "Cobwebs." 2. "Barcarolle. " 3. "My Honey," all of which were pl easingly rendered and very enthusiastically received, especially the last number. It is certain that no one has ever regretted the organization of this Glee C lub which has the hea rty support and the best wishes of the whole school. -67- I ) i\ ~ . - Ll.S - r~---------------------·------·--------------·----~--------------~, I I I I L ~ On Friday evening, December I 6, in the Auditorium of the High School. occurred the eighth annual Inter-Society contest. A large audience of its many friends and patrons were in attendance. First on the program were several selections given by the High School Orchestra, which were followed by a solo by Miss Mattie Green, one of the D elta Tau's most accomplished musicians. Then came the declamations. Miss Marian Jarvis, one of the Delta T au's best declaimers, gave "The Lost Word," by Henry Van Dyke, which was excellently rendered. The Philo representative, Erskine Mitchell, spoke Lord Chatham's speech in the English P arliament, on "Affairs in America." But like the year before the Delta Tau came out on top. Fallowing the declamations came the orations which were so well given that even the judges had a hard time to d ecide: Miss Mary Chapman delivered a carefully prepared oration on "Joan of Arc," and Mr. Joe Grason, the Philo's old standby, presented a patriotic speech on "Our Flag." Only once before have the girls won the oration, but this time, the oratory of the Philos failed to over-poise the eloquence of the D elta Tau. The question for debate was, "Resolved, That a graduated income tax, with an exemption of a ll incomes over $5,000, would be a desirable modification of our present system of federal taxation." The affirmative was opened by Miss Genevieve Lowry and followed by Mr. Frank White for the negative. Then in order came Marion Saunders. Walter Short, Eva Mooney, and Harold Barr. Each speaker was given ten minutes for constructive argument, and live for rebutta l. The debate was certainly a good one. The speakers were all well prepared, showing the earnest work and careful training of Mr. Sayles and Mr. Brindley. But contrary to the opinion of everyone except the boys, the decision was 2 to I in favor of the Philomathians. The judges were Dr. R ay of the Second Presbyterian church, Mr. Chapman, secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and Mr. W. H . Killpack, all of this city. President Ruth H end erson of the Delta Tau presided, and time was kept by G eorge Spooner a nd Ada Spetman. "Philoma thian" is now ha nging before the loving cup presented by the class of '03. But the Delta Tau has not given up hope yet, and is only more determined to regain the cup next year, feeling sure that with the prospective material in view, the boys will again meet failure, and the girls walk ha nd in ha nd with success. - G9- / ~ - - . - TRIANGULAR 1) EBATERS ' . OMAHA DEBATERS .. - 70- After having been beaten last year by Fort Dodge and Sioux City in a triangular debate, Delta Tau and Philomathian Literary Societies decided to go them another round this year. However, both teams again met defeat, but it is a significant fact that the d ecision in each case was two to one. At least in the case of Fort Dodge everybody decla red it should have been three to nothing, with the rim knocked, for Council Bluffs. After all it is not the decision that counts. This could be seen in all the debating teams of Council Bluffs this year. Under C oach Brindley's efficient teaching each d ebater got up with an intelligent look on his face and proved that honest d ebating is the only kind of debating in the long run. To make a long story short, on F ehruary 3 the Council Bluffs team, composed of Ruth Henderson, George Spooner and Roy Mauer, went to Fort Dodge. They were chaperoned by Miss Sprague, who proved to be a very good one by the way, and accompanied by Mr. Brindley and Miss Lucy Spooner, a former star debater for D elta Tau. It is not necessa ry to go into details. The judge that voted for Council Bluffs said tha t our team had Fort Dodge ovenvhelmed in a rgument a nd delivery. Fort Dodge won by memorized rebuttals. It may be well to note that while M a uer and Spooner did excellent work, Miss Henderson was easily the star performer on account of her masterful work in rebuttal. At the same time, on the same night the other Council Bluffs team composed of Bea Tinley, Theron Gretzer and Kenneth Snyder were showing their mettle. T hey were on the affirmative side and the night before the Council Bluffs negative team showed up their weak points. It was admitted by all that the affirmative side was the weak side. Nevertheless the Council Bluffs team made it the strong side on this evening. Miss Tinley's rapid flow of Irish oratory was a never-to-be-forgotten event. Snyd er a nd Gretzer also did themselves proud. But all in vain for Sioux City had a girl who was deliberate and cool. Decision, 2 to 1. The best is always left until the last. On F ebruri.ry 24, Philomathian sent a team to Omaha, composed of Joseph Grason, Robert D a niels and H a rry C herniss. A large crowd of rooters a lso went and vied with Omaha in rooting. It was a debate w orth listening to. Council Bluffs excelled indeed and the d ecision came as expected. Three to zero for Council Bluffs. Grason was a star performer a nd with great foresight picked out Omaha's d efects a nd hammered on them. His experience showed up . C herniss did wonderful work and his eyes shot forth electric sparks. And D aniels, it was indeed a second Daniels come to judgment. T his decision is the third d ecision that Philomathian has won from Omaha. All three of these debates were on the same question: "Resolved , That a graduated income tax with a n exemption of a ll incomes below $2,000 per annum ·would be " desirable modification of the present system of federal taxation. Constitutionality granted. ' - 11- :;_ ~( ~ ~ :- '· ~ ~ = 2 = - ;:: ':'-;': ·r.. :: :.... ....; z. l - n - /1ozART HA YJJ N. WAGNER. <.... IV. 'W4n/ ,,.._ The Orchestra, now one of the recognized institutions of the Council Bluffs High School, was first organized in the spring of 1909, but after a few rehearsa ls it died an ignominious death on account of the lack of a good conductor. However, in the fall of 1909, the combined efforts of Mr. Reed and several members of the defunct Orchestra, secured Mr. Henry G. Cox of Omaha, formerly musical direc tor at Iowa Unichestra. Mr. Cox is one of the 1ca and we consider it a obtained him as leader of this studied extensively 111 both taken training in the principal and special work with RiedelsU nder his direction the tinually and by its concerts ha s orchestra has taken up some of versity, as director of the Ormost gifted musicians in Amerchance in a lifetime to have organization.

All will agree that the two years under Mr. C ox have greatly improved both the technique and musical interpreta tion of every member, beside adding an additional star to our High School's already onerous crown. This year the orchestra organized and el ected the following officers : President. Fred D effenbaugh ; Secretary, Floyd Harding; Treasurer, Joe Weinberg; Librarian, Olga H ansen. 11 ;:\J\I , IJltl.'~ IJFl-' ll ·: ~ - 7 1- Present Arms! Thus do the Council Bluffs High School Cadets sa lute the C lass of 1 91 I and wish them a most happy and prosperous future. Although the company this year was no army, still quality, not quantity, you know. Every member had a uniform and it was a good looking company that drilled in the Armory on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Besides, we had an addition this year. With Joe Grason as commanding Lieutenant, a signal corps was organized. Grason, with the aid of Sergeant First C lass Boylan and Sergeant Olson, trained his men in the Morse Telegraph C ode and the Semiphore system of wigwagging. This corps will undoubtedly be a great help to the company 111 the sham battle at camp. The company as a whole has had a very successful year. N ew drills were explained and practiced so that now the company is experienced in platoon drill a nd a number of fancy drills. These made the drills more interesting to the men so that every drill night they turned out in full force. As the Class of 191 1 takes most of the officers this year, the company next year will have to fight hard to maintain its existence. The officers this year were: Captain , Lloyd Goldsmith; First Lieutenant, Arthur Bauman; Second Lieutenant, Roy All en; First Sergeant, Stuart C lark; Quartermaster Sergeant, John Oliver; Sergeants, Otto Gibson, Wallace Wheeler, John Long, Harry Crowl; Corporals, Arthur Douglas, Lynn Alberti, Ed Larson. - 7 ."1- .

Both the basketball a nd track teams have upheld their full share of the school's honors, a nd their achievements aroused an exceptional degree of interest in the school as a whole. The season was not entirely without disappointments, however, the greatest of which was the disbanding of the football team. It was a ll the more deeply felt because, until the last year or two, Council Bluffs has a lways held a prominent place among the football teams of the state. The cancellation of the schedule a fter only three games had been played, was due primarily, to lack of interest on the part of the players. There was plenty of good materia l, the overwhelming defeat of Missouri V alley in the first game showed that conclusively, a nd one of the best coaches in the sta te was available, if the team had only shown the proper willingness to practice. Basketba ll was begun immedia tely after the close of the football season, and in the series of games which followed, the school was given ample opportunity to display its loyalty. It was prompt to accept the chance and a t every important game the capacity of the Y. M . C. A . gymnasium was taxed to its utmost by a n enthusiastic crowd of rooters. The spirit was not a ll confined to yelling, but a lso found expression in the two receptions given a t the "Y" for the Sioux City and Fort Dodge teams. These. were a source of much enjoyment to a ll who attended, and as the promoter of them, the newly organized "Take One" club d eserves honorabl e mention. Looking back over the season's record we feel a just prid e in the results attained, for the basketball team, playing in almost every instance against teams of years' experience, was, nevertheless, d efeated only by Omaha, South Omaha and Sioux City, and the track team a lso established an enviable record. Contrary to usual custom, the dista nce men were given a try-out in the fall, by a cross-country run with Omaha High on Thanksgiving day, which resulted in a victory for Council Bluffs. D ouglas Smith outdista nced all of Omaha 's team and Council Bluffs also took third and fifth places. More laurels were gained for the school when a team consisting of C la rk, M axwell, M acrae a nd Friedman defeated South Omaha High School in a 1,040-yard relay race at the big indoor meet in Omaha. The results of the inter-class meet were a lso a credit to the school. - 7fl- - 80- .c '- "' c u l: ; I Although but lwo yea rs of age, the representative ba sketball team has become an exceedingly lusty infant and has done much toward making the name of Council Bluffs High School respected in basketball circles. Preliminary practice was begun ea rly and two games were played before the C hristmas holidays. In the first of these the team gave promise of its future worth when it shattered a ll precedents by defea ting the Alumni 26 to I 3. The early games of the season were remarkable rather for the individual ability and grim d etermination to win displayed, than any great knowledge of real work. But a rapid change began when Miller took charge of the team, a nd as the season ad vanced the work became faster, smoother, and more accurate, until signal practice was gone through with a lmost machine-like precision. The results of this improvement we re s~own to best advantage in the second half of the Fort Dodge game, when the rapidity a nd accuracy with which play after play was carried to a successful conclusion, completely bewildered the opposing team. In all. the twelve schedule games were played a nd of these eight resulted in victories. The teams played against included: Plattsmouth, Oma ha , South Oma ha, Sioux City. R ed Oak, Missouri Valley, Malvern a nd Fort D od ge. The line-up of the team was: Robinson, Capt. ; Grason, Hunt, M axwell, Hubbard, Ranck and Clark. Robinson, who captained the team so ably this year, was elected to head next year's five and with Hubbard, R a nck and Maxwell again in the game and the vacant places filled with the pick of the younger players, next year should see a team still better qualified to uphold the reputation of the school. The class series this year resulted in a most confusing jumble. At the end of the usual series no team had a cl ea r cl aim to the championship a nd only the Freshmen were clearly out of the running. A s a result several additiona l games had to be played. These finally resulted in the Sophomores acq uiring the titl e of school champions and the Seniors, Juniors and Freshmen ta king their places in the order named. The Sophomore team was made up of Crowl, captain ; Giles, Lennox, Officer, Pheney a nd Baker. - 1': 1- r~·--------·--------------·---------------·--------------------·-----------·-------------, 11 ~~ I IDrark ~~ 11 \.- __ J The Seventeenth Annual Field Meet of the High School Athletic Association was held Friday, April 28th, at the Merchants Athletic Park. The meet wa s a success financially and the records made spoke well for the school. A 220-yard circula r track had been laid out and a I 00-yard straightaway and both were in good condition. A team was chosen to represent Council Bluffs at the Tri-City meet, consisting of Friedman, Macrae, Bates, Hunt, Barton, Wilcox, Hubbard, Cleaver, S. Clark, Bauman, Harris and Sauer. The representative track team which will go to the State Meet at D es Moines. will be chosen from the above members. The Juniors won the meet with a total of 48 points to the Seniors 42, but the result was uncertain until the Juniors won the relay race by a margin of a few inches. Ribbons were given to the winners of the first three places and the winning relay team was awarded first place ribbons. Our Cross Country squad defeated Omaha High School in their annual run by a score of 9 to 6. The winners were: D. Smith, first, C. B. ; L. Ellsworth, second, 0.; S. Clark, third, C. B.; R. Muckle, fourth, 0.; Elmer H arris, fifth, C. B. The successful work done by our men on the track is largely due to the efficient coaching of Professor Pierce. Mr. Pierce is an athlete of high calibre and came to us well recommended at a time when a lead er was needed, and in behalf of the sq ua d the track captain wishes to tender him their sincere thanks for the work he has done.

B., For you more vic'tries achieving, As long as your colors they see , Still we will never forget thee, As we speed through our life, Though we now bid farewell, Yet our hearts all do swell, Forgetting our past troubles and strife. MYRTLE VAN FossEN ELEANOR FULLER. Qlln1rn Jn.em. 1912 Classmates, we are leaving, These scenes to us so dear, Our eyes grow dim, our breasts are heaving, And we shed a parting tear; As we look into the future, Painted in a rosy hue, Let us not forget the days we spent, 'Neath the Crimson and the Blue. Gold and White are now our colors, Onward is our battle cry, As we march unto the vict'ries, That await us now on high; We have fought and we have struggled, And each battle we have won, Let us not then stop and fa lter, Always "B A Number One." As we launch upon Life's Ocean, And we drift away from shore, Familiar faces dimmer grow, Opportunity knocks upon each door; As we trod these various pathways, Fate has laid for you and me, Our eyes gleam brighter, our steps are lighter, As we think of dear C. B.

It was with difT1 cult y that a suitable food was proc 'Jre ::I for me, 1 being of an irrita b le te rn- ~ per so characteristic of tal ent ed p eople. All brands of baby fo ::: d w e re tried without avail. Then a friend mentioned Grape-Nuts, which my pare nts b ega n to give me in small quantities. From that time on, I began to improve rapidly a nd '<vi thin six months was entirely well and always had a clear brain. I sometimes a ttribut e wl at ever of brilliancy there is in me to Grape-Nuts and my te achers. Along about this time the first of my troubles began. My brothe rs, no d oubt b e in g envious of my position in the world, began to torment me. Those who would like to know more of what they did to me will please read on. As all children, I was pestered with a full quota of aunts and uncl es, who in sisted on giving me advice. One thought that my mind was growing too fast and urged my pare nts to get "Dr. So-and-So's Flesh Restorer" in order to develop my body; othe rs, o n the contrary, thought I was gaining too much flesh and should try "Dr. Somebody's W e ight Reducer." Much of their medical advice was taken and from time to time I w as a fflicted with various remedies whose results were much worse than th e ills they w e re supposed to cure. There was a great argument on the part of th e a unts as to what - :~:! - profession I should take up. One wanted to fit me for law; ano ther for medicine; still a nother fo r the ministry, a nd one even suggested that I should become a capitalist. Howeve r, in being fitt ed for a ll the professions I soon found that I was being fitted for none of them. · When I was first sent to school, I was about fi ve years of age. This being an ea rly age for enrollment, the teachers were only prevailed upon to admit me by the mention of several L a tin quotations. After I had thus shown my knowledge I was placed in the first grade, where during my initial d ay I covered a ll the work specifi ed, and was promoted to the third, the second grad e being omitted. H ere I found myself in w hat seemed to be an envious crowd of children, all eage r to do me hurt. I have no doubt that my superior brilliancy thus tempted my playmates to d o me se rious injury , thereby putting me out of the way. So thus my early years did I live, gradually gaining knowl edge a nd influence . Soon even people outside began to notice me, predicting a n unusual future. Fl attered and pampered by all except my jea lous ri va ls, I soon reached the High School. H ere the a nimosity and ha tred of my rivals reached the heigh. I was fo rced to run three gauntlets, ma ke speeches, a nd suffer all ma nner of torture and humili a tion. At times, a lso, sugar was poured d own my neck ; spoons and other utensils were often found in my pockets after lunch, which my teachers suggested should be returned to Bailey. I presume that this was some wo rk of my riva ls, thereby hoping to entangle me. About this time my instructors and other speakers began to lecture on honesty, politeness, a nd punctuality, little realizing tha t in a short time I was to be pointed to as an exampl e of these virtues. But, in due time, my brothers began to cease their opposition, evidently realizin g th a t it was better to have my friendship tha n dislike. So, littl e by little, I was admitted to their act1v1t1es. From the first I distinguished myself in ora tory a nd in sports, a nd was even a member of a military organiza tion, being a llowed to ca rry a rea l gu n. The next year I was pampered a nd petted, a ll peopl e being eage r to win my fri endship a nd good will. The newspapers began to speak of me as an extrao rdina ry child but from forbearance I disd a in to describe these accounts. In the spring I was victorious in an a thletic event, easily defea ting all comers. About this time I changed my diet from G rape-Nuts to Qua ker Oats, upon the advice of my instructors. Ever since I have had unusua l success, my bra in being as clear as a whistle. Once more the jea lousy of my older brothers increased a nd we engaged in pit ched battles. Whil e at all times adve rse to fightin g, neve rtheless, I showed my p ugnastic tendencies a nd utterly routed the enemy. This ought to serve as a n exampl e to a ll comers not to attemp t to a ttack me in the d ark. But, after a ll, this riva l fina ll y b ecame my fri end ; a nd in looking back I rnw some good causes for his dislike of me, a nd I soon began infli ctin g the same punishments on others Time swiftly passed until I was read y to graduate . At this time I had some difficulties with my yo un ge r broth er, but they soon passed by a nd a t my graduation bequeathed him my good name, a long with my La tin a nd Physics tests. Even to this d ay I a m told that I a m se t before others as a n exampl e of a model cl ass. - :.rn- Q1lann Jrnpqrry The close of June 25, 1925, was drawing nea r. Such a rare d ay ha d not bee n seen for some time, and was well fitted for the meeting that w as to be he ld tha t evening. All the birds were singing and there was somethin g in the a tmosphere tha t seemed to betray the thought that something of importa nce was about to happen. T he Old Hi gh S chool stood on the hill , with an a ir of importance surrounding it, as if it seemed to b e the center of a ttraction a t that parti cul ar time, a nd indeed it was for th a t ve ry evenin g a reunion of the cl ass of 1912 was to be held in the G ymn asium, a nd the membe rs had already begun to assembl e. After wandering around the grounds and halls of the Old C. B. H. S ., they a ll gathered in the old lunch room, once more to enjoy themse lves, whe re, thirteen yea rs before they had bid fa rewell to their school days and had gone out into the world to seek their fortunes, or try to do wha t good they could to help others. A very sumptuous feed having been pa rtaken of w ith much la ughte r a nd ta lkin g , a fin e looking yo ung man, at the head of the table, arose a nd a ddressed the goodl y company with a somewhat emotiona l voice. .. • I r r "Dear Friends, and Fellow Members of the Class of 1912: It certainly is a great pleasure to me, and I presume to all of you, to meet again these members of our class. Thirteen long years have passed since we reached the parting of the ways on our graduation day, May 30, 1912. While we see some empty places, still. the majority of us are present, and we will first have roll call by our former secretary, Miss Jennie Cook. The lady spoken of arose and called the roll. Fifty-eight responded to roll call. Mr. Larson then arose and said: "Some time ago, when I first began to think about a meeting of this kind, the thought occurred to me that it would be nice to hear from each and every member of the class as to what they were doing and how they were getting a long in the struggle of life. I wrote to each one I knew where to find, and asked them to send me the addresses of a ll they knew. After several weeks of anxious w aiting, I received the addresses of all and therewith proceeded to write them a letter, asking them to tell me all they could concerning what they were doing and what they had done since they had left school in 1912, telling them of this meeting which I was planning. In due time, I heard from every one, and had much pleasure in reading their letters. A s soon as I had conferred with several of the other members, and we had made pla ns to have it on this pa rticula r date, I sent them invitations. Now, in order that we may give everyone a chance to speak, each will, necessarily, have to be brief and to the point, but not so brief tha t they omit anything which will be especially interesting to any of the members. I will call for the different members from the roll, and as your name is called, we would like to hear from you concerning what you are doing, and not only tha t, but also concerning anything you know about anyone of the class who is not present. The first name I find on the roll is Mr. P eter Aicher." "Mr. President and M embers of the C lass of 1912 : I w as in hopes tha t I w ould not be the first speaker on the program, and, in fa ct, I would much ra ther not speak a t all, for I prefer to hear of the success of others tl:an to make you weary listening to my doings and dealings with mankind. There is one thing that I regret very much, tha t I didn't take advantage of when I was in school, a nd that was the Philoma thean literary society. You perhaps remember how hard it w as for me to speak in public or even recite before a class when I was in school and while I am not as yet very proficient in tha t line, still I have overcome that to a marked d egree. But be fore I tell you of my work, f wish to tell concerning my brother, as he vvas unable to be present tonight. In June, 191 2, he secured a position with the Burlington in the freight office. After he had b een there about two years he w as promoted to chie f clerk o f the offi ce and soon a fter that to traveling auditor of freight a ccount which position he held a bout three yea rs. H e w as then transferred to the Omaha offi ce as auditor of freight a ccounts, which position he now holds. Now, concerning my own work. After I had g radua ted from d ear Old C . B. H. S. in 191 2 , I went to work a s a stenographer at the Pioneer Implement C o., a nd during the thirteen years tha t have passed since that time I ha ve risen from stenographer in the offi ce until I now own one-half interest and am district manager of the company, controlling all of W estern Iowa. I did not get to my present position a t a jump, but worked up, fillin g the positions of salesman, cashier, a nd fi na lly, district ma nager." "I am Yery sure we a re a ll glad to hea r such a n encouraging report from the first two members of the cl ass and we can a ll notice the very perceptible improvement in M r. Aicher' s a bility to express his thoughts a nd vve a re very glad to see that, a nd a lso glad to hear of the wonderful advancement of both brothers. Now, Miss All en, how have you fared?" "I attended Drake University Conservatory of Music and now have over fifty pupils studying with me at my home in San Antonio, Texas. " "That was short and sweet," observed Mr. Larson, "and we are gl ad to hea1 from this member of the class." The next member I find on the roll is Mr. Floyd Bates, one of the star players on the football team of 19 I I . " "I hardly know what to say after listening to the speakers before me, but will try in a few words to tell my history from 1912 through the last thirt een years. Afte r leaving the old school, I attended Chicago University and took up the study of medi cine. I graduated from there in 1916 and an M. D. was tacked onto my name , and, by the way, perhaps you will be interested to learn that I am on my way to att end a reunion of our class of 1916, which is to be held in Chicago next week. Since graduating, I have been practicing as a physician and surgeon in Denver and am on my way east on a vacation trip of several weeks, during which time I shall have the pleasure of att endin g two class reunions." "It is not difficult in the least, judging from the glad to hear concerning the welfare of its members. Joseph Beaumont as to what he is doing." applause, tha t all the cl ass is We will now hear from Mr. "Mr. President and Fellow Members of the Class of 1912: It is with g reat pleasure that I stand before you this evening and greet all my former cl assmates. In tre fall of 1912, I left dear Old Council Bluffs and went to Ames, whe re I studi ed into the mysteries of scientific farming. When I arrived there , I met my old fri end Dexter Frank, who had scheduled for the same course. We had ma ny good time~ together at Ames and I have almost as great respect for the State University as I have for C. B. H. S., but still, I think the four years in High School are much d e are r to many-at least, they are to me. After we spent about three years in study, w e separated and Mr. Frank went to Colorado and started a sheep ranch. At first, he started on a very small piece of land but has been adding thereto as fast as he could, until he has 1,000 acres of well improved land, given entirely to the raising of sheep and cattl e . He was unable to be here tonight owing to duties at home. Now, concerning myse lf. After I completed the course at Ames, I took up a small farm in Iowa. This I worked on the principles I had learned while at college and at present I have a farm of I ,050 acres in one of the best parts of the state. Any time any of you ha ppen to be near Oskaloosa if you will drop me a card, I will be delighted to come to town a nd mee t you, and tak~ you out to my farm for a visit." "I am sure we are pleased to hear from our old cl assma te, Mr. B ea umont, and tha t he did not stop his studies when he le ft old C. B. The next speaker is one whom w e have a ll heard of in his work as an electrical engineer, how he has made it possibl e for the city of Council Bluffs to have all the electricity wanted at a ve ry great redu c tion in cost, by harnessing the power of the old Muddy Missouri- Mr. M erl y n Burns." "Mr. President and C lassma tes: It is with g rea t satisfa ction tha t I a m pe rmitt ed to stand before you this evening of June, 1925, to attempt to inte rest you in some o f my work in the world of business. Owing to his absence from the city, a tt e ndin g to business in N ew York, Mr. Arthur D empsey requested me to repo rt for him this evenin g and since we a re in the same company it will not be so ha rd . Afte r w e le ft the old ,.. school on the hill where we often looked at old Gibralta r, we both decided to go to the same school. W e studied toge ther, had our room together, a nd formed a sort of a pa rtnership then which has lasted from that time on. In 1920, we happened to be toge ther one evening, a nd Mr. D empsey brought to my attention a sta tement which our professor in Physics in High School said tha t the old Missouri could be made to furnish electricity for C ouncil Bluffs. We sta rted to pl a n a nd work to th at end and just six months ago today the pl a nt was completed and every thing made in readine ss to open the inl ets to the grea t power wheels and set things going. A s a result, w e a re enjoying this evening by light furnished by tha t power a t one-third the cost formerl y charged by the electri c light company. I have a lready ta ken too much time to tell concerning my own persona l relations, and I will discontinue, tha t we may all hear from the rest, which would interest me much more." " I a ssure you, Mr. Burns, tha t we a ll apprecia te the grea t good you have done for the city of C ouncil Bluffs in not forgetting the words of Mr. Morgan a nd if he we re he re I am sure he would feel quite elated in the thought that you worked upon his suggestion. And now, Miss J ennie C ook, what can you tell us ?" "O ! I'm here," squea led J ennie C ook, as she a rose to prove her statement. "You can find me most a ny pl ace. After I left school, I w as a stenographer in Oma ha for a time, but la ter I went to Norfolk, N ebraska , to be a tea cher in the commercia l d epa rtment of the High S chool a t tha t pl ace. I can tell where some of the others are, too. I know tha t G ayle O yster is ma rried a nd living in Minneapolis. Wha t else could we have expected of her? Fay is private secreta ry for a college d ean in D es Moines. " "La ura L a rson is a teacher in the domesti c science department of a Sioux C ity high school, a nd Mignon C ordill has a fin e position as instructor of mathema tics a nd chemistry in a school in Sioux F a lls, South Dakota . 0, yes ! a nd I think that Alice S pea rma n has a swell position as bookkeeper in M a rsha lltow n. 0 heck! I'm a fra id th a t's a ll I know a bout the members of the cl ass." "O ! Mr. President," a nd a nother young lad y a rose hurriedly , na mely, Florence Mullin, " J ennie fo rgot to add tha t she very soon expects to go to housekeeping in Norfolk in a ve ry fin e, modern house. I guess she did not w a nt it a nnounced yet." " Who is it, J enni e ?" inquired someone. " That's my business," a nswered C ookie, blushing. F a iling to lea rn th name, Florence continued, " Anna L ee is ma rried, is living d own a t Elkhorn, Iowa, a nd is very happy; she a lways was, you kn ow. Noomie is a prima ry teacher in this city . "Elizabeth J ones and Ella S a ndwick ma rried soon a fter gradua tion a nd have been enj oying a ha ppy life while workin g for the good of their fellowmen." " E leanor Fuller neve r ma rried, but came nea rly d oing so once. S he now has a school fo r ' oice culture in the U nive rsity of Virginia , a nd her pupils just worship her. I have been ma kin g a conce rt tour o f the eastern cities, a nd have been fa irly successful as a voca l soloist. " A s Miss Mullin concluded , the president · a rose and in an awed voice a nnounced , " We have w ith us, a lso, Mr. Robert C rawfo rd, editor of the R egister a nd L ead er of D es M oines, a nd he w ill now favor us. with a few rema rks." " Mr. President : It seems q uite unfitting tha t I should li ft my voice a t this point, a ft er hav ing hea rd Mr. Burns' stirring recita l o f the grea t things w hi ch he a nd Mr. ana Dempsey have been doing for the poor struggling humanity of this world. Personally, I have not accomplished anything of much moment to my fellow beings, but have been trying to keep people informed concernings the happenings of importance. After school I secured a position as reporter on the editorial staff of the D aily Nonpareil, and labored faithfully with that position for about a year. At the end of that time I was promoted to the position of chief editor, a position made vacant by the resignation of Mr. Cook. After toiling with the Nonpareil for three more long years, I accepted my present position with the Register and Leader of D es Moines. My modesty prevenb further embellishment of my rise from the humble position of a cub reporter." "Well, Scoop,' old Sox, we are all glad to hear that you have made good," broke in the hearty voice of Elmer Harris. "We will now hear from one who was quite prominent during his term in High School circles as president of the Philos. He was also on Triangular and Omaha debating teams and was editor-in-chief of the Crimson and Blue for 1912. He is now one of the members of the United States senate. I refer to Mr. Robert Daniels.·· "Mr. President and Members of the Good Old C lass of 1912: It is w ith great pleasure that I stand before you this glorious evening to tell you of my work in trying to benefit mankind. Although it seems somewhat egotistical for me to tell of my own doings, still that is what this reunion is for tha t we may learn of each other's we lfare. After I left dear old C. B. H. S., I went to law school in the east and spent four years making my acquaintance with not only new subjects of study but also with new associates as well. But new associates are never as dear to me as the associates in dear Old High School and it is with great satisfaction that I stand before my old comrades. After graduating from law school I went to D es Moines and there practiced law for some little time. After practicing for about four years I was call ed upon by the people of our state of Iowa to represent them in the assembly of representatives at D es Moines. How often have I thought of the House of Representatives we had while in Mr. Asquith's room. I can almost see the different members as they arme and spoke upon different measures which we passed upon. After serving my fellowmen in the House of Representatives for about four years, I was chosen as United States senator for this districr, etnd, its Mr. Larson said, I am now serving you and your fellowmen in the senate of the United Sta tes, helping to ma ke laws to govern and benefit mankind, and now, as a toast to the Class of 191 2 , may I say, long live the C lass of 19 12 a nd our glorious la nd of the brave and free, the land of the red, the white, and the blue." This speech brought down the house in a roar of cheers and applause a nd it was some time before President Larson was able to restore order, but when he had succeed ed in quieting the house, he said: "Mr. Daniels always was a very we are able to hear him this evening. of a ttending this meeting and we all beautiful land. We will now hear Hubert Finerty." brilliant speaker and it is with great p leasure that He has come from his business for the purpose apprecia te his feel ing toward the class and our from the treasurer of our class of 101 2, Mr. "Mr. President and Fellow M embers of the C lass of 1912: I am very glad to be able to be present with you this evening. I was uncertain, until a few hcrnrs ago, a s to whether or not I would be able to be with you this evening, on account of my duties in Chicago, a nd I have come from there since 9 :00 this morning. I w ill first report upon :.~ - there whereabouts and actions of Mr. Edward Ford, having been requested to do so by himself on account of his inability to leave. his work in the city of Chicago. He took up a position as a stenographer with the C. & N . \V., soon after leaving school, and worked at different small sta tions along the line until he was appointed chief clerk in the auditor of freight accounts department in C hi cago. This position he has held until just last month, when the auditor of freight accounts of our road resigned and he was appointed to fill the vacancy. Now, concerning my own affairs. When I left High School, I accepted a position with the C. & N. W. as timekeeper. This position I held for a bout six months, after which time I was promoted to the general offices in Chicago. At first, I worked as a clerk a nd many a weary evening have I spent in that office working on different reports. I rema ined in that office as a clerk for some time, going from desk to desk until I became chief clerk of the department of a uditor of passenger accounts. I held that position for severa l years and last year I was appointed auditor of passenger accounts, on the dea th of tha t officer of the company. So much for my business history. Now I wish to thank you one and all for your kind attention and hope this will not be the last meeting of this kind that will be held by the class of 191 2.'' "We a re a ll glad to hear that Mt. Finerty a nd Mr. Ford have made such a good record since leaving school, and now, Mr. H adlund, of the Groneweg & Schoentgen C o., will tell us of his different experiences." "I am indeed glad to be present and to hea r that a ll of the class a re getting along in the world of business so nicely. Before I had gradua ted I made up my mind to be a sa lesma n and soon after gradua ting I obtained a position with Groneweg & Schoentgen in that capacity. Since then I have been on the road for them until about a yea r ago, when I was promoted to the position which I now hold, whi ch is sales manager of the compa ny. I have charge of 254 sa lesmen, vvho travel in a ll parts of the United States a nd Canada.' ' · "Now let us hear from a school teacher, Miss Harriman," sa id Ed. "Yes, I am a teacher of domestic science in Old C. B. H. S. It is very enjoyable work and I think the Seniors of 19 1 2 ce rta inly missed a very great ad vantage in not being a ble to ta ke this up. I had a letter from Lottie H arris last week, saying she had secured a fin e position driving the mail a reopl ane between D es Moines and C hicago, a nd she likes the work very much. She says it is somethii;ig grea t to feel like a bird a nd to sa il through the a ir without havi ng any visible connection with the ea rth. C lara Nelson is a stenographer and bookkeeper for a manufacturing concern in S ioux City. " "And now, Mr. H arris, can you tell us something of your work since leavinir Old C. B. H. S . ?" "Friends, it is with grea t pleasure that I can sta nd before you a nd tell yo u not onl y of my achievements but a lso of the achievements of my partner in law, Mr. Erskine Mitchell. Mr. Mitchell a nd I both attended a law school in the east a nd now have our uffi ce in C hi cago. H e was unable to come on account of business which call ed him to N ew York. We have a ve ry good practice in C hi cago at present and are doing very nicely." "I think that in our class there are a number of school teachers. Two of them have been men tioned . Are there others here this evening?" Thereupon a d emure looking young lady with a sweet smile arose. S he was we ll known among the members as Miss Bessie H ewitt. "I am a kindergarten teacher," she began with a gentle voice, "and enjoy my work very much. I guess I can tell about a few of the others. May Clark has a responsi ble position as a La tin and History teacher in the K ansas C ity High School. and Maude Freet holds a responsible position as a G erman teacher in the Fort Dodge High School." "And Miss M a rian Jarvis, now Mrs. of Chicago, will you please inform us as to yourself?" The said lady arose with a great deal of rustling of her yellow silk gown. She spoke with a marked broadening of all her "a's," at which seve ral of the members had cause to grin. " Mr. President and M embers of the Class of 1912," she began, "it gives me great pleasure to be here with you. I can't tell you much about myself except tha t after graduating from the Chicago University with a degree, I entered upon my stage career, where for fi ve years I starred with a good company. I then decided to enjoy my home life in Chicago, a t which pl ace I am now residing." " Of the whole class is Miss Allen the only one who has taken up music ? " inqu· ed Ed. Toward the right a small person q uickly a rose and sa id : "No, sir, G ertrude Tinley has made a wonderful success along musical lines in Europe. She is now spending her fifth year abroad." "Thank you, Miss Kintz , we are glad to hear of G ertrude, who was one of the brightest members of our class. How have you been getting a long since we last saw you?" "O, I have been sticking around home a grea t part of the time, having a good time. I have drawn all the wonderful cartoons which have been published in the Chicago D aily N ews. I have been a t this for six years now." "One of the most loya l members of the cl ass of 1912 is not here," continued Ed. "She must have been very busy or had some urgent reason for not being able to come.'' "O ! Mr. Larson, I can inform you, screamed Irene. "I don·t want to do all the talking but no one else seems to know anything about the girls. I went to see Marian a t her home in Ottumwa about four weeks ago. She has a good reason for not coming, her husband-" "O ! " exclaimed some of the girls, "she's married." "Yes," assented Irene , "she has been married for a t least seven years now, and just this last week they have started on an extended trip throughout the South and W est." "The next on the roll we have all hea rd from more or less since he left school. He has gone to F ranee and has studied into the different physical p roblems tha t con front the world today. And, by the way, he has solved severa l of them. I speak of Mr. J ohn Langstrom. I received a letter from him some time ago and he sa id he was doing nicely in his new laboratory in P aris, and was now working on a machine for pe rpetual motion. H e further states that he has compl eted a machine which will run entirely without power but will not develop enough power to benefit the huma n race to any great extent as ye t. We are all hoping he will be able to compl ete his invention as that is what we have a ll been looking for, for so ma ny years. But now let us hea r from some more of the fairer members of our cl ass. Miss M eikl ejohn, will you please tell us what you have done?" - ·10 - • "Mr. President and Classmates," commenced Pearl, "there isn't much that I can say but-er-well, I decided to follow the work of Florence Nightingale, and took a training course in a hospital in St. Paul, Minn. I am now the head superintendent of the best hospita l in that city, from which I am now having my first vacation." "That is indeed very fine, P ea rl; and, by the way, I also received a letter from Mr. Mowrey and he states he is the secretary of an aeroplane company nea r San Francisco, California, a nd that he was unable to be present at this meeting on account of business. We should all have been very glad, I am sure, to have had him with us and to have heard from his own lips concerning his work out in that country. Another one that has acquired considerable fame is Mr. Paul Meuller. We will now listen to what he has to say concerning his work." "Mr. President and Friends of the Class of 1912: I am afraid Mr. Larson overestimat ed my work when he said that I had acquired considerable fame, for I have done nothing more than try to help the machinery interests of the country and help to perfect machinery for the United States and for the benefit of all mankind. But before I tell you of that, I will report concerning another member of the class, Mr. C has. H a rgens, who has gone to Europe for a trip to study art and is at present in Ita ly. The last letter I received from him was written from Rome. Now, concernin g myself, I wish to say that about the most notable thing I have achieved is to perfect the steam turbine so tha t now we can obtain ninety-two and one-half per cent power out of the coal burned to make the steam." "We are all very glad to hear that Mr. Hargens has taken up a rt as a study, for we all remember what fin e illustrations he made for our C rimson and Blue. And now, I wish to tell you concerning a letter received from Mr. Wm. Nolan, who is in Philadelphia. He states that he is head foreman of the G eneral Electric Compa ny, a nd tha t they a re now working on the largest dynamo that has even been built. This is to be taken to Niaga ra Falls when completed, and is sa id to be able to furnish power enough to supply three cities the size of N ew York. I have also heard tha t M essrs. George P eters a nd Oscar Pryor now own the C ity National Bank Building of Omaha and that they a re in the rea l estate business in that city. They were expecting to come tonight, but for some reason or other they do not seem to be present. We will now listen to Mr. L ester Ranck of the Motor-Go Auto Company." "Mr. President: In order to give an account of my work, I will have to tell you of my partner in business, Mr. Walter R eller. You all remember how Mr. R eller drove a machine nearly all of the time he was in school, especially the last yea r, a nd from that time to this he has been interested very much in autos of a ll kinds. After we left Old C. B. H. S., I secured a position with an automobile company, and after I had been working for them a bout two years, Mr. R ell er and I d ecided to go into business together. Since that time we have had our ga rage on Fourth Street, a nd have been doing we ll. Mr. R eller is at present in the east, looking into some new improvements in the different ma chines tha t are being put out by some of the ve ry best ma nufacturin g concerns 111 the country." "We are indeed glad to hea r from these two, although one of them is unable to be present. The other day I received a letter from Mr. Earl Robinson, who is now in D es Moines. H e states that he is now court reporter in the district court in tha t city. I w ill tell you a littl e of his history since he le ft Old C. B. H . S. A t first, he a ccepted a - ·I I - position with the Van Brunt Auto Company and worked there for about two years. He then accepted a position as court reporter in the district court there. The position he now holds he received about a year ago, and from all reports, he is doing fi nely. Vi/ e will now listen to Mr. C. E. Sessions." "Mr. President : It is with great pleasure that I am not only able to be present, but also to hea r from so many of my old comrades. Before I give you a ny of my own experiences, I wish to tell you concerning my brother William, as I think many of you would like to hear concerning him. After he left school he went to work for the Union Pacific as a stenographer. He worked there for about two years, rising from stenographer to chief clerk in one of the departments. He was then offered a position with the Burlington, which was much better, as fa r as advancement is concerned, a nd a ccepted it. He had been there only six months before he was appointed traffic manager of the road. So much for a review of his doings. My report will be brief, to say the least, for a ll I have done since I left school is to build buildings for others to use. I went to work a s a contractor and builder as soon as I left school and the building which we a re now in was remodeled by us this last fall. " "We are glad to hear that Mr. William Sessions is doing so nicely a nd a lso to hear that we a re holding our meeting in a building constructed by one o f our number. It seems to me tha t I have been giving a good sha re of the informa tion concerning the members of the class, because I have reported so many from letters I have received within the last month or so, but I have another to tell about-Mr. Douglas Smith. We remember, especially those of us who were in Mr. Marshall's arithmetic class, wha t a sha rk he was in arithmetic. But he did not stick to that a fter he left school. H e went to law school and a fter graduating practiced for some time in N ew Orleans. B ut as Mr. Asquith used to say in history class, he escaped early from his na tive sta te, a nd is now congressman from Tennessee at W ashington, D. C. If you remember, it w as he that proposed the greatest bill that has been placed before the Sena te for some time-a bill which provides for the purchase of all the railroads of the United S ta tes by the government. I also received a letter from Mr. John Sorensen, who now is a court reporte r in D enver and reported the recent gold mining case which has been the center o f attraction for the last two years. Now, Miss Steinbaugh, may we hear concerning your actions during the past thirteen yea rs ?" " For myself I can't say very much, except tha t I have had different positions as a stenographer. Then, a fter taking a course in d ancing, I opened a dancing school in this city for High School pupils. M ary Campbell and Eleanor Thompson a re both ma rried . M a ry Campbell you have, perhaps, heard considerable about, for she is one of the most prominent leaders and promoters of woman suffrage in the east. E lea nor ma rried a minister and is a ll tha t a minister's wife should be. A nna Sweeny is a lso an ea rnest and loyal supporter of woman's rights in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and is, a t p resent, the lead er of a club tha t is bringing about great changes in the evil habits of tha t city . H e len C ox whom I am sure all remember, has a very fashionable millinery store in Oma ha. Sh~ left about two weeks ago on a business trip to P a ris to select her fa ll stock of milline ry." "Now, Miss Van Fossen, will you please rise and tell us wha t you can." "Well, I'm still alive," said M yrtle, " and still have the same position I h a d four yea rs ago, tha t is, bookkeeper in the F irst N a tiona l Ba nk. I can say for E leano r H e rne r tha t she is a t the head of a ladies' ta iloring school in C hicago, a nd H elen T hompso n is - 4 :.!-- ,,. ,.. LUE a teacher in Corning, Iowa. Elmeta Boysen is chef of the Y. W . C. A. cafeteria here and is an earnest worker in that organization.·· "And Miss W a tts, what have you to say that will interest all of us?" "Well, J ennie Smith married a well-to-do tailor in Shena ndoah and now has a fine home a nd everything nice, even to a fine automobile. I don't think you would recogn.ize her as our former classma te. And I," continued Cora, "as some of you know, have an up-to-date beauty parlor on Broadway and I invite all you girls to come and see me there. " "We will now listen to the last member on the roll, although not the least, for he bas made a decided showing in his profession. I refer to Mr. Joe Weinberg." "Mr. President and Fellow Members of the Great and Glorious Class of 1912: It is with great pleasure that I am permitted to say a few words before such a company, and more tha n that, it does me good to see most of my old classmates once more. I received a letter from Mr. W elch some little time ago, and he said he had just married a lady from N ew York, who was noted for her political speeches. I have heard since that for a while he practiced law but gave that up to become chef and housekeeper in his own house while his wife delivered politi cal speeches. Whether this report is true or not, I have never been abl e to find out, but we will hope that it is erroneous. When I left school, I journeyed to the old country and there studied music, taking up especially the violin. Since returning to this country I have started a school of music in Lincoln, Nebraska, and have about fifty students studying under me at present." "Well, I have three members besides myself to tell about yet, and I am sure you will be very glad when I have finished, for I feel that I have taken up the greater part of the evening. The first is Mr. Edwin Hubbard. At present, he is up in the forests of Michiga n, working for the United States government as a forester. I also understand that Mr. G eorge H ewes is working with him in constructing telephone lines through the forests to facilita te taking care of the forest reserves. I also heard that Mr. C. Highsmith had la tely affiliated himself with the Paxton & G all agher Company of Omaha, as their secretary. Now there is but one more member, Mr. G eorge Thompson. You all remember how ha rd he studied while he went to University a fter leaving school and now owns the la rgest pharmacy in Seattle, Washington. Whil e the rest of you have been doing a ll these grea t things, I have been studying law at college, and, as most of you know, have been practicing here in the city for the past five years with varying success. W e have now heard from every member of our class as to what they are doing and where they a re. Now, is there anything more any one would like to say?" "Mr. President," said Mr. Daniels, "I move tha t as long as the secretary has taken down everythin g tha t has been said this evening, that she transcribe it, and tha t funds be taken from the treasury to have it printed and sent to every member of the class as a souvenir of this great a nd memorabl e meeting of our class.·· "Second the motion, " came a chorus of voices from eve ry quarter of the house." "I am quite sure that I need not call for a vo te on such a matter as this after such a chorus of seconds, but for the sake of form, a ll in favor of the motion signify by rising." Immedi a tely there was a scramble to see which one would rise first. After order had been restored and no one thou ght of anything more to bring up, the meeting was adjourned, all agreeing tha t they had been to the best class meeting that had ever been held by a ny class they had hea rd of. 1:, • .. The Class Play, this year, was in the form of an operetta, "Sylvia," and was a grea t success. The principals, as well as the chorus, all did credit to their parts. Miss Grace Barr had charge of the musical part of the play, and Mr. Sayles had charge of the drama tic part. Miss Eleanor Fuller, in the role of "Sylvia," pleased us a ll with her sweet singing and pleasing manner ; P aul Mueller, as "De Lacey," demonstra ted that he is destined to be the coming Caruso; Charles H argens, as " William," acted the part of the awkward country swain to perfecticn, while M arian J a rvis, as " Betty," the sweet little country maid, made a decided hit. Robert D aniels, as "Prince T obbytum," the "man of consequence," was exceedingly funny, and kept the audience laughing all the while he was on the stage. The minor parts were well played, Elizabeth Jones and Ella Sandwick as the court ladies, and Florence Mullin, Faye Foster and ] ennie Cook as the fa rmer's daughters. "Sylvia" is the story of a discontented court lady, who grows tired of her poet lover, D e L acey ; and of a dreamy little country ma id, who is not satisfied with her country sweetheart, and longs to wed some man who is of high ra nk. The two girls, with the a id of a magic flower, successfully trade lovers for a day, but at the end of the d ay, realize that each one should be contented with her own lot, and so the story ends happily. The cast was as follows: Sylvia Betty D e L acey William Prince T obbytum Polly Dolly M olly Araminta Arabell a Robin Eleanor Fuller M arian J a rvis P a ul Muelle r C harles H a rgens Robert Daniels Florence Mullin F a ye Foste r J ennie Cook E lizabeth Jones E ll a Sandwick Eloff H adlund C HORUS: P ea rl M eiklejohn, M ay Cla rk, M yrtle V an Fossen, Cora Watts, H e le n T hompson, E lmeta Boysen, H elen Cox, Neva Steinbaugh, Hubert F inerty, E dwin Hubbard, Lester Ranck, Edwin L a rson, W illiam N olan, J ohn Langstrom, Arthur D empsey , Eloff H ad lund. ·1-1 - 43 - -· .,._ " .,._ :-- an~ \"OGF.LEU. \"i~e e~ id t BOC K.

And as we pause, the plan of true success Suggests itself to us in thought like this. The wish to do some of the needed things Which we can see about us in the world Shaud come to ev'ry one. It is not vain To wish for this because each one has pow'r To compass some good end if he but will. No one was slighted at life's starting line. And hidden in each rational human is The ge rm of power just waiting to burst forth. The thrill of purpose roused, we needs must choose Our goal. No matter what it is except That it be right, and wha t is best for us. Remember, we can do it if we make Our will of iron strength. When we've an aim that·s right we may begin To work toward our end. But first, the start. It must be right or else we'll surely fail. For runners oftentimes do lose the race Who are not started well upon their course. Gigantic buildings whose foundations were But poorly laid have fallen-all because The start in their construction was at fault. Then with a fix ed ambition, with an aim That's right and with a good beginning win The race by faithful effort all the way. There will be hardships and temptations, hard To bea r and to withstand, and much to hurt Us ere at length we reach the "promised land, " But then success will be more sweet because Of vict'ry earned by honest work and pain. And so on through our course and on through life W e'll go with this our motto ever nea r, To aun aright, to start aright, and then To peg away. -ANNA JOHNSTON -lfl-- ~ •.

Our class, 194 strong, bids fair to become a strong and enthusiastic class of the year 191 4. The Sophomores as a class though they have made no 'brilliant showings this year, a re looking forth with eager a nticipation to next year when we as Juniors can sta nd out in the school, and challenge our name with anyone. We fell that we have been giving hearty support, to both a thletic and literary work. We have been laying a firm and sure foundation for our brilliant career next year. In a thletics we have names we can be proud of; our boys' basket-ba ll team, consisting of Pickering, D ent, Fields, White, Owens, with L everett as captain, have made a showing which proves that the ] unior team next year will be in condition for good work. In football with Barton and Macrae on our representative team, both of them star players, we a re sure of a lively football squad for 'I 3. Our names in literary work will challenge those who are left next year. With Horace Barton and Everett Swanson, with their experience m the Freshman debate , a nd Pauline Rider as declaimer, we have no reason to fear for our success in this branch of our High School work. In the Echoes the Sophomores have appeared to a great adva ntage; several ve ry good stories have been published by members of our class. In the Exchange notes one paper said "The Blind D eception" was the best story they had had occasion to read in a High School paper; and this story was written by a Sophomore. This shows the class of '1 4 will be turning out some modern novelists. The boys are well represented in the Cadets, having about ten of o ur numbe r in that organization, with S. Evans and H. H elm as offi cers. . ,.. ;;, ti .1 ;:::: "- ~· .,. ;:::: ., . :1: ..s -= -:: 0:: "f. • .• ;:. .... ;;: "' -:: 0:: ;- ;.-, -:: .... c if.• ::: ... 0:: "' 0. ;- " ~ :_, 0 ::: . t ,._. -G G- I ' . Ah, how glad we were tha t d ay when we were ready to enter the high school never to be children in the grammar schools again! How our anxious hearts leaped with joy as we entered the portals of that beautiful shrine! But, amidst all this joy and excitement there was just one thought that came uppermost in everyone of our minds-what would they do to us ? W e had heard of the awful things that had happened to other classes and we trembled as we thought it was now our turn. W e wondered how it would feel to be hazed- but we never found out, for our older classma tes were very good to us and gave us a roya l welcome. W e had always been in the highest grade and had always been the honored pupils of the school where we had come from only to begin again by being made to feel like kindergartners and ready to drop into the first door that looked inviting whenever we were looked a t. W e are very proud of our class, which is large and promises to be one of the largest gradua ting classes. Our musica l talent cannot be surpassed . We have started with a greater part of our class as ninety per centers. Our boys' a nd girls' basketball teams, so the others have found out, a re very hard to beat. There are ma ny promising debaters who, we are sure, will win the honors for us. With such a beginning as this as F reshmen, friends, what will we be as Seniors? So here's to the class of 19 15 which is striving to do its best. - GT- I I so - ' -· --G!l-- - ::: ;:: :__, ·- :_, .,, ;:: -- :_, •. ~ -:: 'n rr. ~ - •.· "' (: ;-- v. .. ,, ,, G ; -- ;:: !· ~ ·J: = -:: " - GO - w=1ai======iai=====iai=====iai=======iai=====ia1=w ~ The Echoes ~ ill= ai======iai====iai====iai===~ai======i 1=m The past year has been a very successful one for the Echoes. The paper has increased in both size and circulation. After the first two months, when twenty page editions were published, the size was increased to twenty-four pages which has been ma intained throughout the year. Seven hundred fifty copies were issued in September as contrasted with ~ix hundred the same month last year. All other months there has been a regular output of five hundred copies. The style of the Echoes was much changed this year. A regular cover design has been used in which different inserts were run each month. This tended to give the a ppearance of the book a uniformity but still a variety. The interior as well as the exterior received a renovation. Double column headings were used at the tops of the various departments. A pa ge was thus given to each department of school work. A Title P age and Table of Contents were a lso run. The support given us in the way of literary effort has been very encouraging. For the first few months no one seemed very much interested but through the aid of the E nglish teachers, stories were found for these months. An a ttempt was made to hold a Story Contest but, sad to say, it ended in a mere attempt. However, towa rd the end of the year several loyal supporters came to the rescue and some very acceptable stories were brought forth. A plan was tried in connection with stories which proved very successful. This was the idea of using headings for a rticles a nd also illustrating them. At first only neat type headings were used, but for three of the later editions cuts were used which were significants to the story. One or two monhts last year an attempt was made to run a G erma n Corner. The idea given us by the former editor was again a ttempted this year. W e succeeded in publishing severa l letters from students in G ermany, both in G erman a nd in our own language. It is our earnest desire that this department may be maintained for it has been very successful. Perhaps the biggest and most novel event of this management was the "Ad Test." Several of the merchants offered prizes of one dollar each ro the students writing the best ads for them. This contest aroused a great deal of enthusiasm a nd a good ma ny replies were received. The contest was finally broadened so as to a llow the pupils from the grades to pa rt1c1pa te. Quite a good many ads were received from the grades. The merchants were very much pleased with the results of the contest and many expressed their desire to hold another in the near future. - (jl THE HORNET '' I Ve a1·e S eekers aft1JI' T ruth.

Confidence, loya lly, determina tion, a nd last but not least good, ha rd works have done much in bringing a bout these most excell ent results. Interest in weekly programs has progressed by leaps a nd bounds. Out of this inva luable training a fforded , many have rece ived a solid founda tion for becoming a good public speaker. A better quality of new ma terial than has been added this yea r can sca rcely be hoped for. This is destined to add still more to the la urels a lready bestowed upon old Philoma thean. W e, the offi cers and members, fee l much indebted to the students a nd faculty for the good will and support tendered us. In addition to many minor events, the Philos rendered two excell ent programs in assembly-the first being given fo r T hanksgiving D ay, the second for Christmas. The la tter was given with the assistance of the D elta T aus. Although we were defea ted in the ninth annual Inter-Society Contest, which took place D ecember I 5 . 19 1 I, we a re not at all disconcerted. Our contestants, H orace W elsh, Arthur P eterson, Edwin La rson, Erskine Mitchell and Carl Cowles, put up a spl endid fi ght. W e a re proud of them. After yea rs of tryin g de fea t, old C. B. and Philomathean, represented by their true sons, Robert D a niels, Floyd H a rdin g, H a rry Cherniss and H arold Ba rr, came to their own in the Tria ngul a r D ebate with Sioux C ity and Fort Dodge, on the evening of F ebrua ry 9 . For the fi rst time we defeated both cities overwhelmingly, by a 2 to 1 decision, thereby gaining the titl e " C hampions. " However, much of tha t victory was due la rgely to ha rd work on the part of the contestants and effi ciency and skill in coaching on pa rt of Prof. All an Sayles. Sure ly the fa tes we re against us on M a rch 22. Our riva l friends from across the rive r succeeded in de fea tin g us fo r the first time by a unanimous decision of 3 to 0. It is true tha t decisions neve r show the merits of the debate. It was doubtful until the ve ry end. A s we write, a ll thou ghts are centered upon one of the grea test events of the yea rthe Sprin g Ora torica l and D ecl ama tory Contest, whi ch is to ta ke place M ay I 0, 19 12.

T he D elta T au has given a n unusually la rge number of interesting programs. T he work of Mignon Cordill and Lorene Hammel in the capacity of rr ngi ~g programs has been very good. T he Inter-Society contest, whi ch was held on the evening of D ecember 15, was ve ry interesting. W e we re represented by J ennie Cook, as our orator, on the subject of "Heroism." H er oration was carefully written and well delivered, winning the votes of two of thre three judges. M a ri an J arvis, as our decl aimer, gave the "Bishop S cenes from Les Miserables"' in her usual pleasing manner, receiving the unanimous decision of the judges. T he deba te this yea r was on the subject of Immigration . Our team consisted of Lorene Hammel, Mignon C ordill and G ertrude E llis. The boys excell ed in the d elivery of their d eba tes but the girls won the victory by their good constructive argument and repartee in rebutta l, receiving two of the three votes of the judges The girls took the nega tive side of the question this year and we re well rewa rded by winning the sil ver loving cup which was presented to the school by the class of 190 7. Mr. S ayles, Mr. Grason, Mr. A squith and Miss J ennie Ri ce have worked ha rd with the litera ry work this yea r and_ it has been much apprecia ted by the members of our society. In the T ri angul a r deba te, Anna J ohnston went to S ioux C ity, whil e M arian Saunders did excellent work here, toge ther with the boys, in meeting the F ort D od ge team, our teams winning at both pl aces. While a great many of our girls leave with this yea r's cl ass, we are glad tha t we have good ma teria l to keep the cup. - u7- - uS- 3Jntrr-§nrirty Qlnntrat The ninth Annual Inter-Society contest occurred in the High School Aud!lunu1it, Friday evening, December 15, 1911. Mr. Robert Daniels, the Philo president, presided, a nd Miss Pauline Rider and Mr. Horace Barton acted as timekeepers. The orations were given first, and it was here that the Philomatheans discovered a new orator in Carl C owles. Mr. Cowles, with an oration on R ebort £. Lee, proved himse lf an orator indeed, but he had the disadvantage of ing up against a more experienced orator. Jennie Cook, with an oration on "Heroism," succeeded in winning over the Philo's by a decision of 2 to 1. Then came the decl amations. Marian Jarvis, the Delta Tau declaimer, presented !he Bishop's Scene from "Les Mise rabl es," with its pathos and feeling in a beautiful manner. N ext, Erskin Mitchell, the Philo 's trusty decla imer, delivered "The D ea thbed of Benedict Arnold" in a way that caused the Delta Tau girls to move uneasily in their places, for "Mitch," with his strong voice and excellent stage presence, made a formidable opponent. The Delta Taus, however, won this de~ision unanimously. Then the big event of the evening, the debate, occurred. The question was: "Resolved, That our present immigration laws be amended so as to d eba r all immigrants under sixteen years of age and unable to read and write; provided that this amendment shall not debar dependents upon qualified immigrants of the United States." The Philo's, with a team consisting of Edwin Larson, Horace Welsh and Arthur P eterson, upheld the affirmative side of the question, and the Delta Taus, with Lorene Hammel, Mignon C ordill and G ertrude Ellis, as their debaters, upheld th e nega tive. In constructive a rgument, the two teams were about even as to merit, both sides presenting clear, well stated a rguments, but the girls outclassed their opponents in rebuttal a nd received a d ecision of 2 to 1. During the evening we were favored with a well received violin solo by Joe Weinberg; a vocal solo, Schubert's Serenade, by Eleanor Fuller, and a selection by the Philomathean Glee C lub. And so that is how the D elta Tau Society is m possession of the cup this year, but how long they will keep it rema ins to be proven. - Li!J - AS 'J'lli':Y A rn: A.'\ 11 AS '1'111-:Y \\"1-:HI·: - - 'jl) - I l:1rdi11g-.

For two preceding years we have entered a tria ngular deba te with Sioux City and Fort Dodge, but each year we failed to hold the reins to success. This year was our third year, and at the beginning o f the yea r it aga in seemed hopeless, but the teams took courage and with the help of numerous sources of ma terial and also of their coach, Mr. Sayles, they succeeded in pulling the school on the top step of the ladder. One team consisted of M a ri an Saunders, Floyd H arding and Robert D aniels, who fought against a team from Fort Dodge , consistin g of Carl Gustofson, John Butler and Gra nge r Mitchell, for the nega tive. The question for depa te was: "Resolved, That our present immigration laws be amended so as to deba r a ll immigrants under 16 years of age a nd unable to read and write; providing this amendment shall not deba r depend ents upon q ua lifi ed immigra nts or residents of the United States." Council Bluffs won the decision two to one, by the extempore rebutta ls and their excellent team work. Fort Dodge h·as been accustomed lo win on "canned goods," but we are sure tha t it has been clea rly proved to them tha t "canned goods" will not always do the work. After the deba te, a reception was held at the Y. M. C. A. reception rooms in honor of the visiting team. Unusual interest was manifested in this debate because Mr. W. A. Brindley, who coached our teams for the two preceding yea rs, was this yea r coaching the Fort D odge team. W e we re proud to prove to him that his coaching has helped us to win success. On the same evening, February 9, 1912, Anna Johnston, H arry C herniss and H a rold Barr were in the camp of the Sioux Indians, debating the negative of the same question. The Sioux C ity affirma tive team consisted of Carl W angbreg, Helen H erbert a nd Helen Michael. But in this case the nega tive was proved the stronger side, winning th e d ecision by two vo tes aga inst one for the a ffirmative. Council Bluffs were stronger in extempore rebuttal, delivery and knowledge of the question . T he "Sioux" people were well prepared, but were no ma tch for ours. This is the first time we have licked Sioux C ity for ten yea rs and it was especia lly gratifying. But pe rh aps the best part of this debate was the hospitable trea tment they received from their opponents. In summing up the two deba tes we gladly discover that C. B. H . S. holds first place with two d ecisions and Fort Dodge second with one. Out of these two teams, four were Juniors a nd two we re Seniors, this giving bright prospects for the next year's outcome. Much credit is due to our coach, All en Sayles. The teams fo llowed his direction, a nd thus won. B ut no ma tter how old we may become in la ter yea rs, let us never forget this glori ous year of 19 12, whi ch, although leap year, brought us success. T he deba te with Omaha closed the outside debates fo r the year. We had licked O ma ha for two succeeding years, even winning Freshma n debates. Thus, Omaha d ecided they had been bea ten enough and as a result put their best team against us. B ut Omaha met a team well prepared in every way. Our team, consisting of R obert D aniels, Harry C herniss and H arold Ba rr, had worked hard and they deserved the decision. 7 I - 7 2 - [JJE - - '·' ....: ~ i.n ....: :.; I - 7-1 - .\li ss 1:a 1T. l n st n u·1111· Tinley. :--iL•c1·l'tn1·y 1:I.EE ( 'l.l"l l IWFl l ' l·: IU::i Fullf' I'. J.ilH·:1rin11 ~trLa 1 ~lrr Qllub One of the important organizations of the school is the Delta Tau Glee C lub, composed only of Delta Tau members. Organized two yea rs ago, the club has shown remarkable advancement under the excellent instruction of Miss Grace Barr. Beside rendering numbers in assembly, the Glee C lub has assisted in the programs of many school functions, including the Inter-Society contest and the Southwestern Iowa Teachers' A ssociation meeting. Then, together with the Boys' Glee C lub, they sang at the "Old Time Concert" given by the Congregational Church. For the first time officers have been elected. They are: President, M ary Aid; secretary and treasurer, E lsie Tinley; librarian, El eanor Fuller. The members of the club are: Sopranos-Eleanor Fuller, Florence Mullin, Gertrude Ellis, V erdelle Case, Wilma Graves, Violet Anderson, Alene Diller, Grace M cG ee, Grace R eams, H arriet R eader, Cora Quick, Vivian Swanson, Vera Searl es, Alda Olson ; Second Sopranos- M ary Aid, G ertrude Whee ler, Elsie T inley, M arian J a rvis; a ltos- J ennie Cook, Anna Johnston, N eva Steinbaugh, Elizabeth M artin, Grace Hughes and Edna Blakeley. In conclusion, let us hope that all the future Glee Clubs may continue to have the same hea rty co-operation, support and good wishes of the school. 1L tUJ E r - 7G- . •' FI:\EH'l"t, l'rcsiclcnt :'III SS HAl:J: .

The success of this organization is due to the enthusiasm of the members and pa rticul arly the officers, and to the effi cient training given them by Miss B a rr. Last fa ll the boys decided to put the Glee C lub on a busienss ba~i , and to make it a definite organization, and the following officers were elected : HubPrt Finerty, president; Edwin Larsen, secreta ry and treasurer; Arthur P etersen, libra rian. The work of these officers is to be commended. They have always worked for the welfare of the C lub, and their se rvices were grea tly instrumental in making the Gl ee C lub a success. Another new fea ture of this yea r's organization was the payment of ten cents a week as dues. By the middl e of April about thirty doll a rs had been paid into the treasury a nd part of this money was used in giving a box party a l the Orpheum on April 10th. Miss Barr's work with the C lub is worthy of commendation. Under her direction the work progressed in a ma nner beyond all expec tations. The first appea ra nce of the C lub was at the Philo Thanksgiving program. The ~e ti ons rendered showed good work on the part of Miss Barr and the C lub as a whole. In this program they showed what they could do and in every case they have kept up to standard. At the Southwestern Iowa Teachers' convention they broke a ll previous records. A s this is th e first successful Boys' G lee C lu b in the High School , we believe our pride in it is justifi able. r J - i i:> - cl I The C adet Company has always been recognized as a n influential and b~ fi cial organi zation of the High School. While the Company this year has been handi capped by lack of trained officers, it has still retained its hi gh standard of excell ence and prominence. The demerit system established two yea rs ago has been ca rried out to the letter. Before, leniency has been shown the offi cers, but this yea r two non- commissioned offi ce rs have been discha rged. T his should serve as a warning to future offi cers. The officers who have handl ed the a ff airs of the Company durin g th e yea r have shown themselves to be capabl e. The commissioned officers are : Captain Eloff H adlund; First Lieutenant, H arry C rowl ; Second Lieutenant, Lynn Alberti. The non- commissioned offi ce rs are: First Se rgeant, Ora l Mowry; Quartermaster, H arry C herniss ; Sergea nts, E lmer H a rris, D avid Cherniss, H a rry W einberg, and Cha rl es Snuffin; Corporals, H a rle H elm, Stewa rt E va ns, and Romney Barrett. The offi ce rs of the Signa l C orps a re: First Lieutenant, E dwin Hubba rd ; First Se rgeant, Arthur P eterson ; Quartermaster, Will N olan, and Corporal, Arthur Lennox. The cl ass of 19 12 will take nea rl y half of the office rs from the orga nization. T he most prominent being Captain H adlund and Lieutenant Hubba rd . As the class of 19 12 leaves the school, its best wishes are that the Cadet Company will always be a successful and prosperous organization of the Council Blu ffs High School. - 7V- ~(J - "' "" <::; ~ " "" :: = "' ;::: "' Q) = ~ " " ~ :!: - ~ /. s - ::: ~ - :§ " x ~ .,, ....: - . - ~.

With only two or three men who had ever played in a football game, the sq uad formed itself into one of the best teams in the records of C. B. H. S. The success in getting the men out is due to Professor Pierce, who held the players together during the period which decided whether or not the School would have a team. The great handicap of the team was lack of weight. While there is a general opinion that it merely takes speed to win under present rules, weight still plays an important part in the game. The team .did not lack in spe;ed and head work, and these qualities were largely responsible for the success of the team. Mr. Pierce did much of the work in coaching the men, and it is only necessa ry to look at the record to know that he did his work well. He had an ideal squad of fellows to work with, and they were all willing to do anything that would help the team. He was assisted by former members of the High School to a great extent, and the men who came out to aid the team for the sake of the school have the hearty thanks of the students. While this season's team was all that could possibly be expected under the conditions, there should be a wonderful improvement next year. This year, the player~ ,1ad lo get a "rep" before they were recognized as a football team, but in the future the men should have all the students to back them up. Eight of the "C. B. ·· men will be here next season, and all will have the benefit of a season's experience. Many of the players who were ineligible this season will be able to play, and this will a id the team to a grea t extent. MEN A WARDED "C. B .'s" Captain Edwin Hubbard, right half, was the most aggressive member of the team. Although lacking in weight, he possessed a fighting quality that caused him to be feared by all opponents. Ed could play any position on the team with success, having played quarter, full back, and end, as well as his regul a r position at half. H e was one of the few players who had any experience, and aided materially in teachin g the new men. Hubbard has received three "C. B.'s" for football, having played on the first team two seasons prior to this. .<;-! an~ Earl Robinson, qua rterback, proved to be the sensa tion of the season. This was his first year in high school footba ll, but he played like a 'varsity man. Robbie possessed a ll the essentials of a quarterback, being a good punter, speed y, and cool in tight places. His forward passing also was a cause fo r his success at this position. On account of his brilliant work, he was placed at quarter on the All Southwestern Iowa team. Horace Barton, fullback, was a tower of strength at his position. He was a terror to the opposition on line smashes, and his work on the defense was remarkable. This w as his second yea r in football. Captain-elect Arthur Whitman, left half, made a name for himself on account of his speed and lack of fea r. It was seldom that he carried the ball without a gain, and he was always to be depended upon in defending the goal. H e was the unanimous choice for leader of next year's team and should lead the men through a successful season. This was his first year on the regular squad. Frank Giles, tackle, was the find of the year. His speed and strength brought many fleet-footed players to the ground, and he could be depended on to open up holes in the line of the opposition. This was his first year in football, and he should be a wonder next season. Donald M acrae, right ha lf, was the speediest man on the team, and with a clear field before him, he was sure of a touchdown. M acrae did not play during the last o f the season on account of an injury. Underwood, left end, was another new man who made good. H e always kept his eye on the ba ll, and broke up many of the opponents' plays. His speed and quick thinking made him an ideal man for his position. Frank Officer, left tackle, was a good all-around man. He filled the fullback position during the first part of the season, but was later changed to tackle, where he played the position to his credit. D exter Frank, right gua rd, was given this position on account of his grit. Frank bucked up against guards who seemed as giants compared to him, but he seldom came out second best. Grant Parody, left guard, was a good man for his place on account of his ability to stick to a thing until he accomplished it. H e showed his best work on the defense in holding the line. N olan, right gua rd, was a light man for his position, but he was a willing mixer. On line smashes he was a lways in the thickest of the fray. Crowl, left guard, did not get into many games on account of coming out late, but the games he played in showed tha t he has the stuff in him. F ullmer, right guard, was a man to be relied upon at any time. H e went into every play with a determina tion tha t usually resulted favorably for him. T he center position was occupied by J oe W einberg, and it was occupied in every game, as all centers on opposing teams will testify; providing, of course, that they have gained consciousness. W einberg had the strength and "pep," and played through the season entirely free and innocent of that noted yellow microbe. T hese are the requisites of a real football player, and J oe's graduation will leave a big hole right in the center of next year"s team. MS f ' row l 1:11 es Ph eney Hubbai·d Robin so n (Ca pt.

The vacant positions were filled by players who starred in the class teams last season and had the benefit of some experience. The team was handicapped by not having a professional coach, but Robinson filled that position with credit. All of the men had the real fighting spirit, and when they met with defeat, it was not through poor playing. Out of twelve games played, there were only three de feats, and one of these was avenged when the team defeated R ed Oak in a second game. The undisputed title of champions of Southwestern Iowa fell to C . 8. this year, and this is an achievement to be proud of. Captain Earl Robinson, left forward, ranks highest among the players on account of his perfect knowledge of the game. He is, without doubt, the best player ever produced in the school. His career as a basketball star dates back to the beginning of basketba ll in C. B. H. S . His absence from the team next season will be a very noticeable loss. Edwin Hubbard is the cleverest guard in this division of the sta te. The ball is never secure in the possession of an opponent if Hubbard is around, a nd once he gets the ball it is impossible to get it away from him. H e played on the regular team last year, but his keenness was more romine~t than r ver this season. Lester R anck, right. gu'ard, is a player not to be dea lt lightly with. His strength, \ . aggressiveness and abilitY,, to stick with his man made him an ideal man for the position of gua rd. This was R anck's second year on the team, and it will be hard to fi nd a ma n to fill his place when he leaves this year. Capta in-elect E dwa rd Pheney is one of the new men who showed his worth in fast compa ny. Although his regular position is at guard, he can pla¥ forward with almost equa l success, and makes a good all-a round man. With Pheney .as capta in, next year's team cannot fail to be a winner. Harry C rowl, right forward, was the husky man of the team. His size mad e it impossible for a gua rd to handle him. H e is a good man at shooting baskets, and many times he would make fi eld goals with, two or three men hanging on him. This was Crowl' s first year on the regula r team, and next year should see him much better. Fra nk Giles, center, filled his position successfully in every way. H e out-jumped every man he went against, and seldom had to play on the defense, because his opponent usua lly had to gua rd him. Giles deserves much credit for the manner in which he played , as center is the hardest place on the team. Giles will play next year. A sa Baker, fo rward, is the little man of the squad . Asa did some fast playing this season, a nd w ith the experience will be a star next season. _,_ ,,. _ ·r. -~ t t .. '"' ,., c. ...-.

In spite of the fact that we have a poor training place, under the efficient coaching of C. A. Pierce we have produced from the High School some good material which should show excellent work for next year. In the home meet, which was only partly run off on account of rain, some very good records were made. Giles and Macrae went within two inches of the record in the high jump. In the century dash Macrae won easily in good time. In Crowl we have a distance man who should become a phenomena next year. For the first time in years, Council Bluffs High School has accomplished the feat of securing severa l points in various meets in Iowa. A team under Captain Friedman attended meets at Simpson and Morningside Colleges and showed up well in both places. A team consisting of Captain Friedman, Macrae, Giles and Crowl will probably represent us at D es Moines Interscholastic Meet, May 18. Although we have accomplished good results in track this year, the scarcity of material was evident. It is up to all underclassmen to take the responsibility on their shoulders and put forth all their efforts for the advancement of Athletics in the High School. IDrnnin This year marks the beginning of tennis in the Council Bluffs High School. A Tennis Association has been organized with Rush Williams as president and Frank Officer· as secretary. Much interest has been shown in this new branch of athletics. This is an excellent opportunity for the fair sex to show their athletic ability, and they are taking advantage of it. It is hoped that this work will be taken up by future classes, and teams organized to play other schools. - 8!1- LUE 1Bnnks. by :tlnhrrtt Autl111rn. 1.Eurru i~i{d! §r1111ol ~tuhrttt ~ l1uul~ 1!\rab "FUSSING" Its Origin and Advancement m Late Years By Mr. Peter Aicher, P.
