knows of the play, "Graduation," to be given June 10, 1910.
Scene, E. D. H. S. Plot, to get a diploma. Time 1906-10. Dramatis Personae,
all good "E. D. H. Sers." But how many know of the rehearsals necessary
for this great production? Of course there were many, many rehearsals, simply
for a little farce, "Graduation from Grade School," but I am merely going to tell you
of the last four most important rehearsals.
I had a fearful dream about those four. I dreamed I had to take the MillionQuestion-a-Minute Imp to see those rehearsals termed respectively, Freshman, Sopho·
more, Junior, and Senior years. But don't be scared, I am not going to tell you all he
asked.
FIRST REHEARSAL.

(Stage is filled with a crowd of bewildered children.)
"Why are all those boys and girls so dazed-looking?"
"Hush, dear Imp, this is the first rehearsal. They are Freshmen."
"What is a Freshman?"
"Why a Freshman is- a-a result of the public school system. (I did hate to
prejudice the Imp against the public school system)."
"Do all Freshmen look like those scared ones in front?"
"No, indeed. Do you see all those creatures at one side-half child and half fish,
sort of mermaid effect? Well, they are sharks. Once they were real boys and girls, but
they consumed to much midnight oil and now are sharks. In a Freshman, however, traces
of the child may still be seen."
"Is that why they have that sea for a background?"
"No, strange to say, these sharks hate the C. The C serves as a background
for many others, until the last rehearsal, where other means of keeping out of the limelight are easily found.''
"But now they are separating into groups. They look as if they hated one another.''
"They do. These on the right side are Latin school pupils, those on the left,-dear
me, I nearly said wrong-side are Freshmen at East Side. For everyone knows that
all loyal sons of East Side always take four years of Latin, and therefore go to Latin
school."

!56!

�"What are all those scowly beings to whom the stage manager is giving groups of
children to train? Why, they nearly all have something to hammer with."
"Yes, they are the teachers. fhey always begin by knocking the F re hmen."
"Are there going to be acrobats in the play?"
"No, indeed, none except those who exercise their brain. Why?"
"But look at that man over there, with that group of children, twisting and turning,
standing first on one foot and then on the other.··
Absentmindedly I answered, "Mr. Newland," then after a hasty glance, "you mean
the one with his foot in the waste basket? That's Mr. Reed."
"But now they begin to look happy, as if they felt at home. Have they learned
everything?"
"They think so.
time away. "

They are merely coming to the next three rehearsals to pass the
SoPHOMORE .K.EHEARSAL.

"Why, lots of the boys and girls aren't here."
"Oh, my friend, there was a sad accident. Some of them were very fond d
pleasure, but hadn't yet learned to paddle their own canoes, and were lost in the River D."
"Look how hard they are studying. Do they have to study that hard to be in thf
great play?"
"No, but they think they do. 1 hese are Sophomores, you know."
"See that boy, jumping and jumping. Is he trying to make the track team?"
"Oh no, that's Fletcher Trunk trying to leap into prominence. Later on he 'II learn
that all things come to him who waits."
"See all those girls over there. Who are they?"
"You mean the ones with the over-the-hills-and-far-away look? They belong t(J
Minerva-the authoresses of I 9 I 5. Silly school girls come not anear."
"Hear the dreadful sounds the boys and girls are making."
"Those are foot ball yells. Now some of our number do aspire to the foot ball
eIeven. "
"Will that help them to be in the great play?"
"Nay, it will rather keep them much from rehearsal."
"Hark, there's music in the air."
"Pardon me, you are mistaken. You hear the Glee Club practicing. There are
some boys over there who will probably be m the play. Yes, even Will Shafroth, whose
motto is. 'What's the use of being wise, I'd rather far be merry.' That boy with the
long hair? That's Stuart Sweet. Never mind. poor Stuart is not the only one who
thinks long hair a short cut to tame."
"Will all these people be m the play?"
"Probably. Algebra passed, Geometry passed, but one thing looms up before them-physics-then rah!"
]UNIOR REHEARSAL.

(Pupils all carry bc;&gt;oks and remain in orderly groups. Nearly all appear on time.)
"Why, all the boys and girls are carrymg books and everyone has a worn and
battered red one.''
"Oh yes, Mr. Parker still teaches physics."
"Who is that boy occupying the center ot the stage, shining with glory and a medal?"
"That is Herbert Wilkms who in year 1908, be it said to the everlasting glory o:
our class, won the Woodbury medal.''
57

�"Do you see those men of noble mien and thoughtful brow? Who are they?"
"They are our Congressmen. Theirs not to do or die, theirs but to reason why."
"But won't they ever fill great places in the world?"
"Serve in this land of graft and under men who probably never learned how in a
high school congress! Never! In the land of Utopia, perhaps, yes."
"Do you see all those boys wildly scrambling after a ball, quite regardless of taking
part in rehearsal?"
"Those dreadful creatures so eager for the fray? That's the ball team getting
ready for the Manual game."
"Will they win?"
"Of course. They always have."
"The Minerva girls seem very busy."
" 'Life is real! Life is earnest!' They want to be in the great play."
"It's getting very late. Isn't it almost time for rehearsal to be over?"
"Wait, listen a moment. The stage manager, Mr. Smiley, is reading a list of the
worthy ones. And is mine one, quoth many a youth and maid. Nay, not so, for the
pupil with the A's name led all the rest."
(Exeunt all, with grim determined faces. Each one resolves to be on that list next
year.)
SENIOR REHEARSAL.

("Sober, steadfast and demure." "With even step and musing gait" they come in.)
"They look almost as happy as they did at Freshman rehearsal. Do they really
know a very great deal?"
"Oh, my friend, they are Seniors. 'And where they are, likewise their learning is.'"
"Look at all the heroes of athletics lined up before Mr. Smiley. He is giving them
all a big red D. 'Is that a death? and are there two? Is death that ball team's fate?' "
"Mercy no! Hear them. 'The game is done! I've won! I've won.' These are
big red D's. The others, which the teachers have been awarding so liberally, are little
black D's. They are given away free. Flunk in an 'exam' or don't study for a day
or two a D is assured. For even easier terms apply to Miss Hood or Mr. Pitts."
"Who is that teacher with all her pupils standing in a line before her? Looks as
if they were spelling down."
"Well, they are spelling. You see some of them were so busy studying literature.
art, and the sciences, that they didn't have time to learn to spell. But alas, Miss Salisbury
has decreed that her pupils shall not be in the great play unless they can spell. 'Delightful
task to rear the tender thought, to teach the young idea how to shoot.' ''
"Now all the pupils are studying as hard as they can; even the heroes of atheletic~
are frantically searching for information."
"You see, in a few moments, Mr. Smiley will choose those for the great play; an~
be it known unto you that no one without fifteen credits can take part.''
Aren't they glad the rehearsals are over?"
"Yes, they have all been anticipating the play, but after all it has been jolly to
work together under our beloved Mr. Smiley. I am not sure but that they are a bit
sorry the happy days are over."
"But who will be in the great paly 'Graudation'?"
"Wait and see when the curtain is up, june I 0."

77f HE most successful Hallowe'en party ever given at East Denver was held the twentyW ninth of October, in the High school building. The decorations were made up
of streamers of orange and black, the class colors, hung from the chandelier to all
parts of the lower hall; corn-shocks and jack-o'-lanterns were profusely and ingeniously
distributed throughout the building·
As the class president, Milton Allen, was unable to be present, the vice president,
Herbert Wilkins, opened the evening with a short but entertaining talk. Then Jeannett.:
Bartlett told a thrilling ghost story, which was greatly appreciated. Dancing was in
order during the entire evening, and the music, furnished by a harpist, was excellent, and
added much to the pleasure of dancers and onlookers. The Glee Club gave several
selections which brought forth loud and enthusiastic signs of approval.
One of the features of the evening was the weird costuming of the guests.
Mr. Pitts, Mr. Arundel, and Mr. Kester, were especially good as farmers; and
Rollo Brown, dressed as a colored nunstrel, added much to everyone's pleasure.
The future of members of the class was foretold by Miss Cowperthwaite, Martha
Lindsay, and Lynda Strickler, and the secrets of Mr. Smiley's life were revealed to an
eager crowd. Great interest centered around a .. Chamber of Horrors," which gave to
all who were fortunate enough to gain admittance, a new and unlooked for thrill.
After apple-bobbing and other Hallowe'en sports were ended, refreshments, con·
sisting of pumpkin pie, lemonade, apples, and doughnuts, were served.
The committee in charge of the party was: Alma Melzer, Grace Bartholomew,
Mary Butler, Gilbert McDonough, chairman, Will Shafroth, and Edgar Williams.

�171 HERE have been dances from early times; dances of all kinds.

For many years,
~ semor class have given them. But the most successful and enjoyable one ever given
by school or class, was the dance at El 1ebel on December I 8, 1909, by the Senio~

Class of E. D. H. S.
The commtttee in charge was an enterprising one, whose sole purpose it was, to see
that everyone present, had the best of everything. Everything passed off smoothly during
the evening; and there was not a flaw to be found anywhere. The music was furnished
by Lohm3n's Orchestra. Everyone who has ever danced to their inspiring music, know.)
that their equal ts not to be found in the city. Baur's served the refreshment!\. Black
and his well trained attendants saw that all had the proper attention.
fhe fomteen dances and two extras passed so rapidly and enjoyably that before
anyone realized it, "Home, Sweet Home," was being played. And with many longing
glances around the room, each couple turned their steps homeward, and each individual
realtzed that four of the happiest hours of his life had passed like a dream.
The members of the committee were: Milton Allen, 1ames Bowler, chairman,
Homer Griffin, Herbert Wilkins, William Shafroth, and Harold Stiles.

One day an Appreciative Chap said to an Unappreciative Chap, "Say, do you like
actmg?"
"Sure I do," was the quick reply. "Well, why didn' t you go to the Senior clas ·
play then? ' '
"Because," said the Unappreciative Chap, "I like acting."
Now that Unappreciative Chap was only joking, to be sure, and his joke only serves
to call our attenllon to how well the play really was given this year. That same Unappreciative Chap heard it, said that "Pygmalion and Galatea" was one of the best
plays ever turned out by any Senior class of East Denver, so of course, he felt sorry
he had not been there.
The play was given on the evening of March 4th. Before the play, the Glee
Club gave several selections which were exceedingly entertaining and very amusmg,
while the Mandolm Club also showed what they could do.
The cast for the play, "Pygmalion and Galatea," was as follows:
Pygmalion, an Athenian Sculptor ... .. ... ...... . . .. . ..... . . . . . Paul Gibson.

All did well, and the stage setting and the pretty Greek costumes added a charm
which will not soon be forgotten by all those who saw the play. Paul Gibson, the one
] umor in the play, carried his part well and was an honor to his class.
Gertrude Cleveland made a very beautiful Galatea, and her musical voice made
her still more charming. Once or twice she nearly smiled, almost did in fact, when she
said to Leucippe, "Get you gotte or I'll alarm the house."
The slaves, Henry Swe.ot and Charles Winters, got through safely, without dying
of stage fright or forgetting their lines. The Unappreciative Chap heard they were good.
As for Kenaz Huffman, he made the hit of the evening in his role of Chrysos, for
he kept the audience in a continual gale of merriment.
Elizabeth Sutton acted her part well and was very natural as a scolding and
indignant wife.
Elizabeth Hale was very good, especially in her prayer to Artemis. Perhaps
she followed Mr. Pitts' advice and practiced praying at home.
Our class president, "Tub" Allen, as Leucippe, made a brave warrior, and his
frown took the prize for naturalness that evening· His scene with Myrine was greatly
appreciated.
Lolita Snell aroused the sympathy of the audience in her part, as Myrine, for she
wept twice m a very natural manner. So the Unappreciative Chap found out.
In fact the play was a decided success in every way, thanks to the time and effort
which Mr. Pitts devoted to even the smallest details.
William Shafroth was manager and, as he still wears his happy smile, we believe
he was entirely satisfied.

A great many people always wonder what that old bell is doing out there in the
Stout street yard. I wonder if they realize that there was only one high school in the
city at one time, that high school was East Denver, and it was founded in the autumn
of the year 18 72. At that time, however, there was no fine buildmg such as we have
now. The first htgh school was organized on the third floor of the old Arapahoe
School building· Mr. F. C. Garbutt was superintendent; Mr. Thomas H. Baker,
principal, and Miss Overton was associate.
The school was dtvided into three classes, namely: A, B, and C. There were but
seven students in Class A, but about thirty in each of the other two classes. Among those
in Class A were BenJamm C. Bancroft and Rtchard H. Malone, at present prominent
business men of this city. The H'Onorable Whitney Newton, at one time State Treasurer
of Colorado, Harry Baldwin, a graduate of Yale Umversity, and an engineer in the
Geodetic and Geographical Surveys of the Umted States, were of this class. And when
we think of such men as HoMrable Robert W. Steele, Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of Colorado, and General Irving Hale, who made the best record at West Point
that had ever been made, we certainly have a right to be proud of our school. It is
indeed phenomenal that from a class of seven, so large a number should have made such
unusual records.
There were also a great many able members in Class B. The girls in this class •
became e·pecially dtstinguished. Miss Harriet Schoter became a noted \Ocaltst, and wa
employed a long time in some of the most prominent churches in Brooklyn, New York.
Miss Cynthia Weston was for a number of years one of the editors of the New York
Tribune; and she is now the President of the United States Sunshine Society.
Knowing these things, we can have little doubt but that the students of that period
hold that old bell as a sacred memento of their high school days, to the familiar,
mellow tones of which they came to their tasks in the old Arapahoe School Building.

Four years ago, when the present Senior Class entered East Denver, they thought
only of how fine it was to be in High School; how nice it was not to have to sit in the
same seal all day long and recite all their lessons to the same teacheJ. Trey haJ a lot
of fun, about as much, if not more, than any Freshman Class before or since. And they
worked, too; they certainly did work! And so it is to be expected that they have become
attached to the school, having had so much fun and having done so much hard work. Few
people realize, however, how strong that attachment is. We sometimes wonder what th~
school will do in athletics, or debating, or any other activity, when the graduating class has
gone. But why should we worry? Didn't last year's class feel the same way? anJ
weren't their fears dispelled when we took possesston of Room 16! We came up to their
expectations, and yet we fear that our successors will not come up to ours. But they
will! You know they will! With the spirit that existed in East Denver since it was
founded, they cannot do otherwise. So "Hail! Hail! East Denver!" Here's to
the commg class of Seniors, a class that will uphold the honor of the school, the class
of 1911!

"Just take a look at thim. They assimbled down there fr'm th' fure corners i\

"Say, Hinnissy, ye' re fond iv music?"
"Sure thing," says Hinnissy.
"Thin ye' d aught to hear some iv thim Juniors. Ye've heard iv Teddy Rosen·

"Some day, Hinnissy, ye must just see Larry Bromfield knock th' tennis ball

is that th' person behind th' racket makes th' noise.
"Athletics, Hinnissy, is the junior's sthrong hand- but we won't fergit th' sojer

"Statesmin, too, Hinnissy, flourish at East Dinver. Sure ye've heard iv th' Woodbury or-rahon and th' Stevens Declamation conhsts, an' wasn't it our Junior Adams that

Learning improves native gifts, and wise discipline strengthens the character.
As I was this morning taking the air, I was met by my friend, Sir Roger
de Coverley, who rid by me at full speed, with a couple of servants behind him
Upon my inquiry as to where he was bound, he discovered to me that he was summJned
up by the editors of the Annual to visit the East Denver High School; upon which l
decided to accompany him.
We were arrived at the school just when the morning session was begun, and were
conducted to a class where Caesar was being translated. A fresh faced, ruddy youn~
man was reciting his lesson with much difficulty. But the next youth recited with great
ability. The candid and ingenuous manner with which he delivered himself, appealed to
my friend exceedingly. Upon my inquiry, I ascertained that the latter was a Sophom~re
When the old knight heard this he remarked, "Truly, it is pity that the members of tl:
other classes do not apply themselves to their studies with as much diligence and ambition.
The old gentleman, perceiving the inattention of a few of the young ladies, also remarked
"Had Will Honeycomb been here he would surely have said, ' How much more pro5t·
ably could they spend their time at home looking after their fashions, than sitting her.
thus idle.' ''
Upon our departure from this class, we were met by the principal of the school, Mr.
Smiley, a man of great probity, wit, and understanding, and who is highly esteemed by
all. This gentleman conducted us to several other classes during the morning. Tht
aptness and ability of the Sophomores throughout all of the classes, pleased the gOOd
knight highly, as it had done in the class which we first visited.
On a few of their qualitit's, I must needs remark. Their natural abilities, which are
very good, assisted by their discipline, enable them to make themselves considerabzy
proficient in their studies. While, on account of their youth, the judgment and dis&lt;...!fll"
ment of older people cannot be expected, yet, in a manner which is entirely remarkabk
they apply themselves with more than ordinary attention to the pursuit of everything which
they undertake. In the mischievous groups which collect in the halls, they are seldoo
to be seen; they never venture among the jostling of the crowd; and on the ~treet they d
[681

�not attempt to gain attention to themselves by giving vent to loud exclamations. In thi:&gt;
articular my friend, Sir Roger, observed, "Truly, I would heartily wish that more of
~he pupils of the other cla~ses would follow this example; and on coming to school, instead
of wasting their time in frivolity, would endeavor to fulfill the purpose for which they are
sent." The aspect of the good old man carried much satisfaction as he continued, "I
never pa~sed time more to m) pleasure than I did this m::&gt;rning, notwithstanding the stroll,
I have taken with the perverse, beautiful widow."
I will conclude this speculation with the following story:
It happened in the Assembly room during one of the morning exercises, that a girl
arrived too late to obtam a seat. Many of the students observed the difficulty and confu~ion she was in, but no one moved to give her a seat, until suddenly a row of Sophomore,
arose, each proffering her his. The students of the other classes, being suddenly touched
with the sense of their lack of courtesy, gave a thunder of applause, and they all cried
out: "We may understand what is good, but the Sophomores practice it."

The school bell rang in nineteen nine,
The Freshy started off in time
To learn his lessons from his books
And comment on the young girls' looks.
It was a warm day in june in the year 1909, when the D. &amp; R. G. train thundered
into the little station of Palmer Lake. A fat man, well laden w1th luggage, and accom ·
panied by a very thin woman, alighted and spying a strong looking boy called out, " a),
bey, will you carry our grips to Glen Park?"
")' es, sir," quickly replied the boy, and p1cking up a large suit case in one hand
and a ~m11l valise in the other started up to Glen Park. It was a hard and tiresome
climb, but Paul (for that was the name of the boy) did not mind it. He was happy
today bccluse he had just fini~hed the eighth grade of the Gram"ll:H school, and was
planning what he would do in September, when he should go to Denver and there enter

high school.
[691

�At this time the cadets were camping at Palmer Lake, and Paul soon became
acquainted with them. The members from the Manual company told him that M. T.
H. S. was the best school in Denver, and those from W. D . H . S. said if he wanted
to have a good time he should go to West; but Paul did not hke the descriptions of either
of the two, and thought he would not like high school. But meeting the captain of the
E. D. H . S. company he changed his mind. He was very much interested in football
and when told of the excellent team that East Denver always had, he decided that that
was the only school for him.
Soon the summer months flew by and it was time for Paul to go to Denver. Ju~t
as the bright rays of the sun began to illuminate the country, he was up and ran out to
the barn to give a farewell pat to "Billy," his little black pony· He then said good-by
to all his friends and went to the train. When he arrived in Denver his aunt was waiting
for him and took him to her home, where he was to stay durmg the school months.
The next day he started for East Denver. When he entered the large h!ill
which was crowded with pupils, he was quite bewildered. He saw a large bulletin by
which he was directed to a place called Assembly Hall. He climbed the stairs and
entered the large hall. When he had signed a pledge that he did not belong to a
&amp;aternity, he was given his program. He was now ready to sit by the lamp~ light, and
from that day on he has been consuming the midnight oil with an energy which promise·
to make the class of 191 3 the best and the greatest that was ever under the roof of

E. D. H. S.
The first week was rather hard for Paul. He could not find all the rooms, and
in trying to find them was often late for his recitations. One day as he was trudging up
the stairway which leads from the basement, he was greeted by some girls who laughrd
and said, "Say, Freshie, why don't you go on your own stairs?" But this confusion
lasted only a few days.
He soon overcame all his difficulties and became acquainted With a number of boys
and girls. He joined the cadets and was a member of congress. He took great interet
in his studies, and was admitted to the Sophomore class in June. He then returned to
Palmer Lake to enjoy a pleasant vacation with his old friends, and to prepare for anot~t'r
school term, even better than the first.

It was mid-afternoon; one of those still afternoons of late summer, when the sun
shines warm, and everything is hushed in a sort of sleepy content--everything, that is,
except the crickets and grasshoppers and flies; they are perched on every grass blad~
and weedlet, a million billion strong, and every one is singing his little song, or sawing
his little fiddle, or whirring his little wings, until the air is thick with little sounds.
They basked in the roadway, too, and as Dan's dragging feet kicked up little
spurts of warm white dust, they darted up and whizzed away before him, with harsh
wmg tickmgs.
Dan's eyes roved idly here and there, and he walked slowly, swinging his berry
buckets as he went. There was no use hurrying; he was probably already too late,
and it was rather pleasanter out here in the warm stillness than it would be in the midst
of the emulous clamor of the berry-patch. So the sun was slanting down toward the
western sky-line when he turned aside from the main road and up the path that led to the
big patch. There were many pickers there before him, and as Dan appeared, he was
greeted by gay shouts of derision from the boys and girls, "La-azy bones!" "It's the
tardy bird gets the worm; the early one gets the blackberry!" "Butt out of m.Y bush.
please! there isn't room for two." "Poor old Dan! let's give him a berry apiece, poor
thing!" until he sank down upon a tree-stump with a comic look of dismay, watching th~
luckier cnes, and exchanging bits of repartee that made up in quantity for what they
lacked in other respects.
A good many children plafed about-little ones, whom their parents had brought
rather to keep them in sight than to press them into service as gatherers. Every now
and then Dan would hear one or another cry, "Yuh don't dast! Dare yuh! Dare yuh1
Take a dare and steal sheeps! " Then some small, wide eyed child who had screwed up
his courage to the sticking point would swagger, grubby hands deep in overall pocket,,
toward a rectangle of tall lilacs, and approaching to within some ten yards of the
apparent goal, he would turn and rush back with pallid little face, his diminished valor
"increasing as the square of the distance" from the bushes, until upon his safe return
to the others he was a very victor-he had gone, and seen, and conquered, and he had
fully explored the mystery of mysteries-from the aforesaid distance of ten yards.
But, sometimes, neither taunts nor shrill songs of "Fraid cat! fraid cat! double
fraid cat!" had power to drag the trembler's feet one yard in the direction of the
gloomy enclosure; and it was noticeable, too, that the grown folk were qmte as discreet
in their avoidance of the place; there was a semi-circle like a safety zone, which, as
by a tacit understanding, they d1d not pass; everywhere else they went freely, going
from one clump of bushes to another, in the1r gathering.
Everyone, you see, was familiar with the story; how old Hermit ] ason had lived
l1e1e on the edge of the clearing, ye:us and years ago, in a little tumbledown hut, with
great lilac bushes planted close all 'round and growing up and up past the very chimney;
how he was reputed to have dealings with strange VIsitors, and how marks of cloven feel
were always to be seen about his dwelling; how, finally, on one windy, stormy, tempestuous night, the he:1vens opened with the reek of brimstone, and in the morning, beb)ld!
all that was left of the miserable shanty at the forest's edge was a little heap of smoking
ashes surrounded by an expanse of bare scorched grouund on the one sid e, and burned
and blackened trees on the other, with no sign of the hermit high nor low; and how, by
171]

�1

this token, it was as plain as the nose on your face that the hut had been so carefully
burned for no lesser reason than to destroy any trace of the meetings which had been
held there, and that old Jason had been spirited away in a chariot of fire, quite after
the manner of the Prophet Ehjah, save for his destination.
A thick growth of berry bushes had sprung up in the place of the burned underbrush, and the space was always noisy with country folk during the berry season, fo!
the fruit growing there was huge and luscious beyond all other in the country side; but
the people still avoided the little square, with its lilacs which had grown up again from
their scorched roots, as they would have shunned a plague--yes, the story was as familiar
as one's A, B, C's, and old Jason had been the bug-a-boo with which all the mothen
(more shame to them) had frightened all the children into scared obedience, through
all the many years since the hermit had gone.
But now Dan wearied of watching the pickers, and straightening himself up from
the stump, he stretched his arms above his head, yawned, and took up his buckets.
"Gettin' late, folkses!" he drawled, "Guess I'll be goin' along home, sence you got all
the berries cornered anyhow.

So long!" and he lounged up the path to the road.

Five minutes passed, and the pickers were almost ready to gather their childret
and belongings together for the home going.

Tongues were flying fast and fingers faster,

when from the direction of the lilacs came one long, low, mournful "Cooo-eee!" Yoiw
were hushed and fingers stilled and faces blanched as by a gorgon head.

And while

they stood there, still bent above the bushes, with white faces turned as of one accord
toward the hollow square with its background, the darkening forest, a yell sounded from
the same spot-a yell so loud that it echoed and re-echoed from earth and sky, and so
awful that the very lilacs seemed to tremble.

There was an instant of absolute stillness

as the sound died away on the quivering air; then, with one crash of buckets, one seizing
of children, and one mad scurry, the berry pickers were gone.
If anyone had ventured to peep within the dread enclosure (a thing which had
never been known to occur through all the years), he would have seen a figure rising
from where it had lain stretched prone upon the ground with lips close to the lilac.
roots; he would have seen the same figure brush the soil from overalls and shirt in most
human fashion, and he would have seen it push apart the lilac bushes, wriggle througli
into the deserted berry patch, and, broadly grinning, fill its two buckets from the many
which had been left behind.

But there was no one to see it--except Dan; and he had

never possessed a mirror in his life.

fhe principal subject of discussion during the first week of school was the wonderful
team East Denver would have. This discussion was not based on presumption· or talk,
but upon actual fact and knowledge of materi:d
Nothing, it seemed, could prevent us
from capturing the championship; and even Dr. Fowler and Mr. Kester believed we
would be victors.
With this idea in our heads, we were not slow in settling down to good, stiff practi:e;
and it was not long before we were ready, under the strict supervision of Captain Allen,
to enter upon the arranged schedule.
Our first opponents were the North S1ders. We looked forward to a hard game,
and so went into it with the expectation of a close score. Dunng the earlier part of the
game, it seemed as though our expectations would come true, for North Denver, by a
brilliant run of ninety yards, ~cored a touchdown· This inslead of disheartening our
players, seemed to inspire new life into them; and from then on, everything went our way.
Time after time the backs would plow through the line, and the ends would be repeatedh
circled. These tactics Here continued throughout the remainder of the game, and resulted in a final score of l 8 to 5. This victory did not make us over-confident, as s&gt;
often happens, but made us more eager for the coveted championship.
We next encountered West Denver, and to say the least, the game was interesting.
It wa~ easy for East Denver to make eleven points, and the goose-egg sign was the only
reward West Denver received.
1 he Boulder Preps were the next whom we met. This game was the turning
point of our success. We do not care to make excuses, but nevertheless it is a fact that
luck was against us. We were within striking distance of the goal five times, and yet
each time we failed to score. The Preps, on the other hand, secured a field goal, the
only time our goal was in danger. With this defeat on our hands, things seemed to go
from bad to worse. Captain Allen was at this critical point attacked by a severe ca5e
of appendicitis. Our hope of becoming champions vanished, and the spirit in the school
fell almost to a minus quantity. But yet there is the spirit of perseverance and loyalty
at East Denver, and for that reason the team labored and struggled under adverse con·
ditions and awaited the worst. The following week we met our old rival, Manual,
on a field of ice and snow. East Denver started with the usual rush and spirit, but th;s
was soon dampened by the injury received by our clever quarterback, Sherman, which
forced him to retire from the game. East Denver strove against fate it seemed; but no,
we secured a fumble and scored a touchdown. The East Denver stands were all astir;
excitement, confusion. and disturbance reigned; and yet this touchdown did not mean the
wmnmg of the game; for it was disallowed owing to a fracas between two of th~
players. East Denver played a defensive game for the rest of the time. We prevented
Manual from scoring during the two full halves; but the time was extended and Manual
succeeded in making a Princeton, which ended the game, owing to certain rules of th~
interscholastic league. the game was declared no game. This gave East Denver another
chance at Manual.
What was declared to be the largest crowd ever attending a high school contest
assembled at Union Park on Thanksgiving morning. East Denver went into the game
without Allen, Sherman, and Bowler, three of their stars. While the game was exciting
and interesting, it was marred by looseness and blunders. The plain truth was that

1781

�Manual played a better game, and won on their merits. East Denver did not give up,
but succeeded in holding the score down to 10 to 0, the game ending with the ball in
East Denver's possession on Manual's five yard line.
The members of the team who received monogram as a reward for their season
of hard work and loyalty to the school were: Allen, captain; Bartels; Bowler, field
captain; Durbin; Gallup; Glendenning; Hawkins; Hursch; Kassler; Lavington; Lovett;
Luman; Mason, captain elect; McDonough, field captain; Moore; Robinson; Sherman;
Tobin; and Manager Alexander, who deserves especial credit, as under his skillful
management the season was completed with one of the best financial records ever made
;n East Denver.

A rather new idea for East Denver, class football, was instituted this year. Although
this had been talked about for many years, nothing definite had ever been done to carry
it into effect. A number of wide-awake students, under the guidance of Mr. Kester,
formed a team in each class. While no strict rules were followed in training and
practice, many lively and exciting games were played.
The first game of the season was one full of excitement and interest. The juniors,
who believed they would have "easy meat" when they met the Freshies, were greatly
surprised, not to say mortified, as they slunk off the field with a small five points tucked
under their arms. The F reshies, not daunted by their first defeat, practiced and worked
all the harder and lo !-it was not in vain, as the Sophs went down to defeat by the
close score of 5 to 0. The remainder of the schedule was played off in due time and the
championship rested between Seniors and F reshies. The Semors, realizing the disgrac~
which would come from being defeated, played like dem~ns; and when the whistle was
blown, the score stood 9 to 3 in favor of the Seniors. The standmg of the respectivl!
teams at the end of the season was: Seniors, Freshman, Juniors, Sophomores.
To say the least, class football was launched with great success; and, as long
as active leadership and lively interest are shown, many games of healthful. clean, and
interesting football will be played.

�The record of last year's team was a very creditable one.

The team was com-

prised of excellent material, and owing to the breaking of Pitcher Campbell's arm during
one of the early games, the work rested wholly on Lavington.

It was mainly through

his good work that East Denver secured the credit which she received.
We broke even in our two games with Manual; the first, after an exciting contest,
resulted m a score of 4 to 2 in favor of Manual; the second, which was one of the
finest exhibitions of high school baseball ever occurring in Denver, was won by East
Denver by the close score of 3 to 2 ·

Both were excellent games.

This year's team should be a sure winner, judging from the material which is
"trying out."

The following men who won their monograms last year and are playing

this year are: Gnffin, captain; Campbell, manager ; Baker, Lavington. Cowell, Lifschitz,
Leisenring, C owles and

Greenstein.

There are also a number of other good men,

trying for positions on the team, among these are: Walters, Fenwick, McDonough, L.
Bromfield, and D. Bromfield.
Judging from the results of numerous practice games played this year, East Denver
should regain the championship, which she has not held for two years.

��The last two years have, it seems, been off years for East Denver in Track.

Many

good men have developed; but while so doing, the other high schools have not been idle,
and have, also, produced many good athletes.

Then it appears that East Denver has

not gone backward, but that the various other schools have come forward.

Last year

we had a splendid team, and yet could do nothing more than accept the honors of third
place at Boulder.
The Colorado Springs meet occurred the first of May, and a good strong team wa
sent. Individual cups were awarded the winners of the various events, and men representing East Denver succeeded in capturing a majority of them. We easily carried ofi
the honors, the nearest competitor only drew twenty-two points against our thirty·nine
and a half. With this as a starter we expected to make a very fair record at Boulder,
but results proved otherwise.

Longmont appeared with thirty-eight and a half poin

Boulder with twenty-two, and East Denver with thirteen and a half.

The meet o

city high schools occurred a week later; and while we were unable to take first placr
we tied with North Denver, thus placing Manual in third place.
team who received monograms were:

The members of~

Coulter, Captain; Slinkard, Woods, Browning

Griffin, Growden, Tallmadge, Drumm, Tobin, Zisch, Kantner, Parkison, Sherm1n, and
Lavington.
At the time of this writing, not a great deal can be said of thi~ year's team. Thr
cross-country men have been out for nearly two months, and are now in almost perftc:

The basket ball season this year was a most successful one for the girls. In the
eight games played, the team was defeated but once, and that was by Wolfe Hall, which
claims the state championship.
With Mr. Kester as coach, Lolita Snell as captain, and Alma Melzer as manager,
it is no wonder the girls had such a fine team. In view of thetr excellence they were
awarded D's at opemng exercises on the same mornmg on which the boys' team receiHd
theirs. This was the first time in the history of the school that the girls' team has been so
honored.
The schedule of games and scores were as follows :
January 14. Manual 2, East II.
January 21, D. U. 18, East 28.
February I 5, Manual 6, East 18.
February 18, D. U. 12, East 21.
March 15, I st T earn Manual 6, East 49; 2nd T earn Manual 15, East 14.
March I 8, I st T earn Wolfe Hall 29, I st T earn East 9; 2nd T earn Wolfe Hall
14, 2nd Team East 15.
April 5, D . U. 4, East 7.
On March 19th, at The Public Bath House, three exhibition games were given in
which the first team defeated the second by a score of 31 to 8.
The line-up of the team was as follows:
Lolita Snell . .. . ....... . ... . ..... . .... .. . . . . . . . . . . . . Forward and Captain
Lucille Carr . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. Guard

Nettie Schultz . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Center or Guard
Lolita Snell, our captain, is one of the fastest and best forwards ever seen on any
girls' team. She can take any position on the team and take it better than any one else.
She played stationary center part of the time last year and guard during the last of the
season. A sigh is heard among the rooters when she gets the ball, a sigh not of sorrow,
but of joy; for they know she will do great things.
Lucille Carr is a little wonder. Although she is small, she is by far the best high
school guard in the city. In almost every game she had to guard a girl who was head
and shoulders taller than herself; but she did not mind a little thing like that, because
she could jump, my, but she could jump! And quick! why, she never would let her
forward get away from her!
Mary Butler, the other guard, is quick and good. She stands a close second to
Lucille as best guard in the city. She is the only member of the team, who did not play
basket ball last year.
Alma Melzer, our manager, plays jumping center this year, while last year she
played forward. Her practice at forward has made it possible for her to throw baskets
from the center field. She is tall and a good jumper and thus added greatly to the
strength of the team.

Elizabeth Sutton, with her level head and good sense, makes a fine stationary center.

As long as the ball i&lt;~ within her boundaries, she is with it and so is always to be depended
upon.
Frances Hoyt started the season as our first substitute, but by the end of the season
had so much improved that she was put on the first team as stationary center.

Frances

made several sensational plays in the game with the freshmen at University Park.
Grace Bartholomew, a good, steady forward, played last year in this position and
!eldom missed a basket.

Because she is not very tall, she is usu::d ly at a disadvantage

with a tall guard, but manages to slip around and get the ball in, notwithstanding the
mo. t careful guarding.
Nettie Schultz plays either center or guard, and is good at both.

She played her

It was not because she

did not play a good game that it was her only one, but because all of the regular team
were there for every other game.
Altogether about twenty-two girls were out for basket ball this year, and there are
prospects for a fine team next year.

Addie Cronan deserves special mention for her

excellent playing on the second team.

HOUGH this is only the second year of the Girls' Athletic Association, it ha~
prospered wonderfully in this short time. Last year the girls played basketball,
tennis, and had walking expeditions; this year they have, so far, taken up tennis
and basketball, with hopes of a baseball team and some manner of field sports.
A short time after school commenced a meeting of all the girls of the school was
held to elect the directors of the Association.
A board was chosen, consistmg of two representatives from each class; also a
''head girl," who was to have charge of all the girls' athletics. The following were
chosen:
"Head Girl"-Alma Melzer.
Seniors-Alma Melzer and Lolita Snell.
Juniors-Nan Gutshall and Margaret Garver.
Sophomores-Alberta Wells and Norma \Vheeler.
Freshmen-Marguente House.
On the board, Margaret Garver was elected president; Norma Wheeler, vice-presi·
dent; Lohta Snell, secretary; and accordmg to the constitution, which provides for a
treasurer and three directors, to be appointed by Mr. Smiley, Miss Sabin was chosen
treasurer, and Miss Cohen, Miss Sabm, and Miss Kennan, directors.
The Class of 19 10 extends Its heartiest good wishes to the Association, and hopes
that it will continue to improve, even m~re than it has this year.

Although East Denver did not have a championship team, yet she had one to be
proud of. The team was made up of men full of vigor and snap, and it was not their
\\'eakness which prevented them from capturing the pennant but the others' strength.
"Bud" Griffin. one of the forwards, is one of the fastest men who has ever plaved
high school basket ball in the state. He is cool, steady. and always keeps his head.
Bob Dewey. the captain, also deserves the greatest praise.
At the beginning of the season, East Denver wa defeated by both Manual and
orth Denver, but in the next game took a brace, and for the remainder of the seaso11
1
held up \'ery creditably the honor of the school.
The final record showed East Denver tied with North Denver for second place,
with Manual in the lead·
The following members of the team received monograms: Dewey, captain and
guard; Beales, center; Bleistein, forward; Gnffin, forward; Hawkins, guard; Rickner,
center: Shotwell, guard; Wells, forward; and Jimmy Cowles, manager .

Mr. Kester believes in making up for lost time, out of school as well as in. At
least so tt would seem from the way he taught the innocent members of his basket ball
to dissipate after their long term of training. Kept them up till two o'clock in the
morning, just think of it, and-but just wait a moment. As soon as he got the bunch
coralled in his room at the Y. M. C. A .• he herded them off to a five cent show, presumably to give his first assistant, whoever it might have been, a chance to get things
started in the buffet kitchen in connection with the boys' department at the "Y·" Anyway,
when they got back things were booming away at a great rate, and the assistant was
gone. Mr. Kester bade the youths amuse themselves at pool. at checkers, at singing,
or cutting up as much as they wanted, and gave them the privilege, which was half the
fun, of helping prepare the feed that was to follow. And say, that feed! Why, your
secret feasts at boarding school, your glorious spreads at college, simply weren't in it
with this midnight orgy-banquet would more fully express it-starting with soup,
skipping nothing, and ending only when the youths could eat no more, and their desire
to catch the two o'clock owl sent them off, thinking Mr. Kester a prince of a fellow,
!he best of entertainers, and capable of holding down a job as chef in the classiest
of French cafes.

A promising innovation into interscholastic athletics was made this year in the form
of hockey. Weeks of col9 weather and day after day of good skating created the
idea among the boys of East Denver of forming a hockey team. A meeting was called and
Dorsey Davts was elected captain, and George Van chaack, manager. The rink
of the Curhs street playgrounds was secured for practice, but a sudden warm spell and
the Christmas vacation interrupted it.
After vacation the irregularity of the weather prevented the formation of a team.
It is hoped that the practice will begin in time next year. that a league will be formed
and a schedule arranged. Among those who reported for practice were: Davt • Van
Schaack, Pue, Well~ Young, and Sweet.

OUR STUDENT MANAGERS.

It seems that East Denver has been unusually fortunate th1s year in her selection of
the different athletic managers from among the students.
During the early part of the year Philip Alexander was appointed football
manager, and he certainly (pardon the expression) "d1d it up right." Next, J ame3
Cowles had the honor of holding the position of basket ball manager, and it goes withou~
saying that with "Jim" at the head, there was more spirit than has been shown in
basket ball for a good many seasons. Alma Melzer acted as basket ball manager for
the girls' teams, and certainly was an unusually fine one. Although Stuart Sweet
has hardly had time to show us what he can do as track manager, we all know that
when tuart undertakes a job, it' s bound to come out right. Last but far from least,
Carlyle Campbell, our former star pitcher, is baseball manager, and, although the season
has hardly begun, more money has already been taken in than has often in years past
been collected during a whole season.
The class of 191 0 wishes to congratulate these people for the unusual interest
they have manifested, and to thank them for the good they have done the school·

�"A Nrw Qlnmman~mrnt 31 ~iur llntn lnu"
The short winter day was fading away; numberless stars began to glimmer through
the dusk.
1 he dead trees spread their snow-sprinkled branches in the most beautiful
de:igns. Not a sound could be heard anywhere. Everything was solemn and awem~piring. Suddenly something stirred the air; it was the knell of the country church bells.
Strcnger and louder it came, almost imperiously it carried the message that Christ was
born. And then- one might have thought that it changed its mind, as if feanng that the
good villagers be overcome by the solemnity of its announcement- it subsided mlo a sweet
and melodious chime, summoning the Godfearing people to church for thank~giving and
prayer. Allhough every one answered the summons with thoughtfulness that befitted the
occasion, in yonder red-brick mansion there was a soul in a most rebellious state, even
though it belonged to a sixteen year old girl.
''I am very sorry that I cannot please you this time, N1anushka," the girl was saying
to her kind old nurse, "for almost a year a hard struggle has been going on within me·
1 did not know whether to believe in the hypocritical and superstitious which was sanctioned by custom and slate, or to stay away from it all, or do what I thought was right.
And now when I am a little clearer within myself, I positively can't go back to live it
all over again. But, please, don't worry, ianushka, though I am not going to church
on this sacred night, as did my mother, her mother, and my mother's mother's mother,
I feel that I am not altogether a sinner. For the commandment 'Love thy neighbor as
thyself has a much stronger hold on me now, than it ever had before. I could readily
~ve up everything, even my life, if it would be of any use to any one else."
A note of s:1dness was perceptible in her voice. For a minute her beautiful blue
eyes wandered, then she resumed:
"You know best, Nianushka, how kind and noble my two brothers are. They not
only love all humamly, but they also protect and shelter birds and animals."
"Yes, yes, Varienka, dear," said the old lady, shaking her head, "like a lady
they treat me, though I am nothing but a poor, common peasant woman. God bless
them!"
"Let us offer a prayer that we may be delivered from those godless, atrocious,
good-for-nothing student~. who prejudice the people against our little father, the Czar,
the anointed by divine right. 0, Lord, mayest Thou strike them with Thy wrath and
just anger, so that nothing remain of them but their memory, as a warning to future
generations, Amen." These were the very words Batushka prayed. "Do you wonder
that I don't go to church?' "
Again the old lady shook her head and said, "May the good Lord have you in
His keepmg, dear Varienka." Then to herself, "Who would have thought of criticising
a priest in my day?"
"But what IS the use of talking and musing," Vanenka exclaimed, shaking off old
memories. "In two hours my brothers will be here. 0, how I love those two 'atrocious'
students!" ~he cried out, and throwing her arms about the kind old nurse, spun her around
the big hall, which was ready for the reception of Boris and Foma, Varienka's brothers.
They were seniors in the big St. Petersburg University, and the aged N1ana was as
proud of them as if they were her own.
"N1anushka," said the girl, petting her fondly, "run along and tell Ivan to get the
~leigh ready, for it is about time to go to meet my brothers."
In half an hour, Varienka, dressed in costly furs, went out into the beautiful winter
night, that she might be the first one to greet her brothers with a "Merry Christmas."
Swiftly and smoothly sped the sleigh over the glittering and untrodden snow. Th¢
star-studded heavens and the white snow made it as light as day. All that could be
heard was the jingling of the little bells with which the harness was ornamented.
But no matter how fast the little bells were ringing, they could not keep pace with
the joyous tumult in V arienka 's heart. For were not her brothers coming home? They
would help her to be::ome reconciled to her God. She could not believe that God was
so cruel and merciless as B:1tushka F eodoter pictured him to be.
f95 ]

�........

Thus musing she came to the station. Af!er . wa1tmg a littl.e while in the poorly
equipped waiting room, the loud puffing and wh1stlmg of the engme could be heard i~
the distance. V arienka stepped out on the platform ; a few minutes later four strong ann~
wound themselves about her.
While they are waiting for Ivan, the driver, who is getting the baggage, let u1
observe them in the glare of the gaslights.
Though they do not look a particle alike, they are both typical Russian studenll.
Alert, quick in action, generous, noble, persistent, and with a touch of dry humor.
Boris was a tall, slender, but muscular young man of twenty-five, with black hair
and eyes, Grecian features, and a manly voice. His sensitive and well-shaped hands
indicated the scholar.
F om a looked more like his sister. On his upper lip there was just the slightest
suggestion of a mustache. The whole face glowed with youth. In his good blue eye~
shone a soft and kindly expression, which seemed to say that to their owner everythind
in this world seemed good, bright, and pure as he himself· Beside him Boris looked much
older, though he was Foma's senior by only two years.
The baggage was finally located and the order ''Home, please ! '' given.
On the way home but few words were spoken among the three. Their hearts
were too full for speech. Each one was oppressed by the same thought, though none
mentioned it. Only two years ago their gentle and loving parents were there to greet
them. But alas! now there were two snow-covered graves under which they were sleeping
their last sleep.
Their father had been a military doctor, and when the Russo-Japanese war broh
out, he, with the rest of his friends, went towards Port Arthur. Their mother, hearing
that her husband was wounded, left her little daughter in the care of the good nurse,
stopped in St. Petersburg to say goodby to her sons, then went to take care of her hus·
band. While bending over him to administer some medicine a bullet passed through a
window pane, and then as if intending to be well spent, killed wife and husband.
But the nature of youth is such that it cannot remain in one mood very long. And
as the young people neared their destination, their thoughts became more and more
cheerful, brightened by the hospitable lights of their own home.
Having kissed the old Nianushka, shaken hands with all the household people, and
asked after everyone's health, they made themselves comfortable before the hearth on
which pine logs were crackling merrily.
Asking about the neighbors, the brothers incidentally spoke of Batushka F eodoter.
and inquired whether he preached a good sermon {to which task they knew he was never
equal). Simply and bravely she told them that she had not been in church for a long
time, and therefore did not hear any of Batushka's sermons.
"What!" Boris and F oma simultaneously exclaimed {meanwhile exchanging a
mischievous wink). "Our dear little sister leaving the mother church!"
Briefly she told them of all that had come to pass in the church for the last year,
and how Batushka had commanded her not to love even her own brothers, because the ·
were heretics.
The brothers now changed their attitude and listened attentively to the words of
their sister, and when she had finished they told her that it was her turn to listen.
In effective and enthusiastic words they told her of the good, beautiful, and heroic
work of the students. How charitable, patient, and loving they always were to everyont'.
They also told her not to be angry with Batushka, because he was just an ignorant tool
in the hands of tyranny.
"Do you remember the paragraph in John that we liked so well? 'A new corn·
mandment I give unto you, That ye love one another, as I love you, that ye also love one
another.'
"We still like that commandment, and now on Christmas Eve let us promise each
other that we will carry love and light wherever it is needed." They shook hand .
binding the pledge. The old nurse came nearer, saying, "So may God help you
Amen."

The Minerva Literary Society has prospered greatly this year under the directorship
of Mrs. Grant and Miss Hood. They both have the best interest of the society at hear~
and we owe them our hearty thanks for their careful and loving supervision.
Minerva consists of seventy-five members from the three upper classes, only those
of high standing and good deportment being admitted. The purposes are: the attalnrne
of a wider acquaintance with great authors and their works, practice in the art of ~·
pression, the acquirement of a better knowledge of current topics, and the good fellowsh~
derived from the social life among the girls.
During the first year of the society studies were made of Wagner, Sargent, Rodin.
McDowell, Stevenson, and others. The work of the second year consisted chiefly in
the study of the national holidays, and some time was also given to debating. M~s
Chambers and Miss Hood directed the society these two years; but when Miss Chambers
left the school, Mrs. Grant was chosen director in her place. Last year the work consisted of a "Study of Italy" and debating. Many good talks were made.
There was somewhat of a change in our work this year. From September to
February we took up things of more immediate interest to us. Talks were made on the
school building and on each room in turn, including discussions of the pictures and
statuary. Then the water company of Denver was taken up and studied in all ib
different branches. The telephone system was treated in the same way, and sever~
talks were given on other municipal subjects. The Minerva Journal, containing much ol
interest, is read at each meeting.
The Christmas program was especially good. Although many of the meetings
have been open to the girls of the school. the Christmas meeting was open to everyone,
and a great many attended. The program was as follows :

The one contest which gives the girls of the East Denver High School an oppor·
tunity to train themselves for public declamation, was established in 1879, by the
Honorable H. R. Wolcott. This contest occurs annually at the close of the winter
term. The readers are chosen at a trial reading, by ballot of their schoolmates. The
prize is a bronze medal.
The contest has for its object the cultivation and promotion of all the principles of
good reading. Though at first offered for prepared reading, the pnze has, since 1903,
been awarded to the most efficient sight reader. This change was probably made to
avoid dramatic and oratorical display.
Places on the program are assigned by lot.

Each girl has half an hout immediately

before the contest in which to look over her sele::tion, which has been especially chosen
for her by Mr. Smiley and Miss Hood.
This year, fifteen girls belonging to the class of 191 0 participated in the preliminary
reading for the thirty-fitst contest.

The six chosen to represent the class in the finals

were: Lolita Snell. Mary Butler, Fannie Atlivaick, Leila Kinney. Leonore Ryan, and
Anna Hyde. The prize was given to Helen Erma Carpenter. a junior· Though th1
lost forever the opportunity for a member of our class to win the medal. we have every
cause to be proud of every one of our representatives.
The other girls who took part on this year's program were: Edna La Favor, Helen
Erma Carpenter. and Sophia Ellsberg. of the second class; and Ada Athvaick, Myrtle
Young, and Rebecca Frank, of the third class.

�When the East Denver High School Congress was founded, on February 3rd.
1904, no one suspected or even dreamed, that it would develop into the powerful legislative assembly that it has. Great interest has been shown this year both in the attendance
at the meetings, and in the heated discussions that have taken place for and against the
bill of the evening.
We feel, however, that our advance this year is due almost wholly to the wise
and thoughtful guidance of Mr. Granger.
When Mr. R1sley, the founder of Congress, left the school. he left the affairs of
Congress to Mr. Granger.
A teacher of History and Civil Government, and .:1
thorough student ot parliamentary law, Mr. Granger is particularly well fitted to be the
permanent president of the organization.
The members of Congress are the leaders in the literary and oratorical contests of
the school. Dunng the s1x years of its existence, its members have only once failed tccapture the Woodbury Medal. The members are taught parliamentary order in actual
practice, and, as far as public speaking is concerned, there is nothing that does them
more good.
The graduate members, frequently come back to visit
ongre. s, and are greatly
pleased with the advance that has been made. Indeed, some one aptly said that the
only place where "pro" and "con" were identical wa. in the words "progre~. " and

��Last year a triangular debating league was instituted, composed of Colorado Springs
High School. Pueblo Centennial, and East Denver.
According to the rules of the league, each school selects a negative and an affirmauve team, to speak on a popular national question, chosen by the league; the affirmative
side remains at home, the negative side goes to one of the other cities. In this way
debates on the same question can be held in the three cities on the same evening.
Last year the subject for debate was the "Ship Subsidy Bill." Our affirmative
team, composed of Marshall, Huffman, and Tall madge, lost in the debate with Pueblo
while our negative team, composed of Starkweather, Brinker, and Pivan, won at the
~prings.

The debate this year on the "Income Tax Bill," held on April 8th, was won by
our affirmative team in the debate with the Colorado Springs team. Our affirmative
team was composed of William King, Fred Cranston, and Fletcher Trunk, leader. The
negative team, composed of Harold Jeffery, David Stemen, and Earl Pivan, leader.
was defeated by the Pueblo Centennial boys.
The Congress banquet last year was held in the Albany Hotel. Mr. Smiley, Mr.
Granger, Mr. Potter, and Mr. Kester were present. Starkweather was toastmaster.
This year the banquet was held at the Auditorium Hotel. Robert Stearns was
toastmaster. The same members of the faculty were present as at last year's banquet.
Mr. Smiley gave us a short talk and the other speakers of the evening were Will Shafroth,
Fred Cranston, William King, Harold Jeffery, George Kassler, Herbert Wilkins,
hiro Taketa, Sidney Doll, David Stemen, Edgar Williams, and Stuart Sweet. Th~
banquet was a great success.

�The Woodbury Declamation Contest was established m October, I 8 7 5. The Hon.
R. W. Woodbury was desirous of promoting the interests of the High School, and
believing that the benefit derived from declamations was valuable, donated the prize.
At first this consisted of a sum of money, but it was later changed to a gold medal. The
contest occurs every year at the close of the fall term. The speakers are chosen at
trial contest by ballot of their schoolmates. The contestants this year were: David
Stemen, Arnold Weinberger, Albert Adams, Haines Lee, Grover Kinn~y. Wilham
Shafroth, ] acob Hursch, Philhp Adams, Samuel Rubin, Isadore Weinstem, and Kenaz
Huffman. The committee of award was: Mr. Ralph Vorhees, Dan B. Carey, £5~ ..
and Earl M. Cranston, Esq.

This year the prize was awarded to Isadore W einstein, a freshman . His selection was Patrick Henry's
spee~h before the House of Burgesses. This was the
first time the prize has ever gone out of the junior 01
senior classes. Much interest is always shown in the
Woodbury Contest, and this, the twenty-seventh, was
no exception. Some of the best speeches ever delivered,
were gn en this year.
Last year the contest was won by Herbert W,Jkins,

It had been a busy day at General Alton's headquarters in the heart of the little
city of Jackson, Tenn., where he had established his camp. 1--kre, long after taps had
sounded, the lights at his desk gave evidence that the officer in command was still uneasy
after the others were asleep.
An orderly noiselessly entered the room. Silently he saluted and waited for some
sign of recognition. He had to wait for some time before the genera 1. without lookini
up. said, "Well, Orderly?"
"Colonel Curtis presents his compliments to General Alton, begs to report matters
of importance, and asks an immediate interview."
The general laid down his pen. "Show him in," he said.
fu the colonel entered General Alton rose, and the two grave-faced men looked
at each other. "General Alton," began the sharp voice of Colonel Curtis, "a prisoner,
a spy, has been arrested attempting to pass the lines. When he was searched a complete
drawing of the fortifications and papers bearing information on supplies, conditions of
the men, and so forth, were found concealed under a false sole."
The general turned a face full of interest to the other and said, "That's bad, very
bad, but tell me something of the personality of the prisoner."
"I did not see him until after the search, and the evidence that he was a spy was
established. He is a mere youth, not more than twenty years old, and from his accent
I should judge that he is a native of this section of the country. He has had good
training as a soldier; but I think, and the other officers agree with me, that it is the
work of an expert with time and knowledge of detail that such a boy could not have.''
The same thought was in the minds of both men. The general. of course, must
order court-martial. which must pass the death sentence on this lad, who, after all, was
but doing the hardest and most undesired duty a soldier is called on to do: the work of
a spy.
There was a long silence which was at length broken by General Alton. "I
have decided," he said, "to give the prisoner his life on condition that he tells all he
knows about the papers."
At the close of the interview the general said, "There will be a hearing at 7:30 tomorrow morning, and in the meanwhile see that the prisoner is comfortable. Good night."
General Alton was alone again. "Can it be," he said half aloud and half to
hJmself, "that, in all the world, there is a man so base as to sell, for money, the informa·
tion a soldier would die to preserve?"
Meanwhile the prisoner, in his well guarded tent, spent one of those never-to-beforgotten nights. There was little doubt as to his fate, and he waited impatiently for
the hour of interview. He longed for his uniform to wear. In that gray, and all i£
meant to him, he could better face the worst.
The officers were earnestly talking when the prisoner was announced. General
Alton turned toward the boy with keen scrutiny. "You understand, do you not, that
you are under the gravest charge of military law," he began.
"I do." was the calm reply.
The examination then began with, "What is your name?"
"William Davis. suh."
"Where do you live?"
"My home is in Glendale."
[ 107 l

�The general paused in the examination and when he again began his voice had
lost much of its sternness. "Mr. Dav1s, may I ask, is your father's name Edwin Davis,
and was he first lieutenant in the old I 6th Virginia in the Mexican war?"
The prisoner looked up with surprise m his face; then a smile of pleasure warmed
it. "Yes, suh, that is my father. It was the delight of my childhood to hear him tell
his stories of army life. Then when this war broke out I couldn't study in school, I had
to be a soldier. I was in that last big battle and did my best to get an honorable men.
tion, but I failed; and then, when it was necessary to get certain information, I volunteered
for I knew every spot of the country, and I was given my chance." His voice faltered
a little; "I did my best, General, but I failed ."
"It is a sad thing, this fortune of war," the general said, "but we have to do our
duty. Now we all feel confident that this is not your work, but that of an experienced
person. As commander here, I am prepared to offer you your life on condition that
you tell everything: the name and rank of those who supplied you with the information.
Of course, you must be your own judge as to whether you can, in honor, reveal what
we ask you. You have an hour to think this over. Orderly, show the prisoner into
another room, and if he wishes to speak with me at any time, bring him here."
William Davis, alone in his room, faced the situation. The traitor was utterly
unworthy to be protected by his silence. Should he save his own life? He prayed for
an answer. Then suddenly he thought of the last words his father had spoken at parting:
"Always remember, a soldier's honor comes first of all things."
"No! God help me, no l" he cried in anguish. "I gave him my word l"
"Corporal, I wish to speak to General Alton at once:· he said to the orderly.
"General Alton, I have made my decision. I cannot tell, I cannot break my
..
wor d.

.

"My boy," said the general, "you did not get your honorable mention in that last
battle, but you have won it now. There are not many who would give their lives for
their honor. I respect you for your choice. For your father's sake. and for your own
sc:.ke, I will try my best to save your life."
Next morning a court-martial was held; but, contrary to General Alton's wishe~
and his honorable mention, the evidence was so strongly against the prisoner that he was
found guilty and sentenced to death.

Since the class of 191 0 has been at East Denver, the growth of the Cadets has
been remarkable. During the last three years there has been an average annual increase
in numbers of more than fifty per cent, and the discipline and spirit of the organization
have increased correspondi~ly.
The Cadets were organized in 1874 by Captain Fischer, and the first Company had
as members such men as General Irving Hale and Judge Steele. The former of these
akerwards graduated from West Point with the highest record ever made up to that
time. In 190 7 Major ] ames E. Hutchingson W.ls appointed Commandant of Cadets
and during the three years of his control. the East Denver organization has increased from
one very small company to two large ones.
Besides the regular bi-weekly drills and the .. officers' school," the different companies
in the city are clubs affiliated with the National Rifle Association, and a silver cup and
many medals are offered for the best shooting.
The East Denver companies are
workmg hard to win a large share of these prizes· Frequent practice marches are taken
through the nearby country, when simple military problems are worked out.
There was a most delightful reception tendered the Cadets by the Y. M. C. A.; but
the chief social feature of the Cadet life is the annual banquet. The third of these
was held at the Albany Hotel on December the third, when about three hundred Cadets
and Cadet admirers gathered at the sound of .. mess call" for a very enjoyable evening.
Captain Fischer, of the original organization; General Chase, General Kelly, and
Captain Strickland, all of the National Guard, were among the prominent men who
~poke in response to the calls of the toastmaster, Captain 1-Lenry S. Sweet, the senior
captain.
Later in the year comes the Third Annual Military Display, in which East Denver
hopes to retain the old and win many new prizes.
The Cadet camp at the close of the school year is the event to which all the other
things merely lead up. The camp last year was held at Palmer Lake, and all who went
declared that they never enjoyed themselves so much, and that they will not miss this
year's outing.
The commissioned officers at East Denver this year are: Major, Sidney F. Doll;
Captain, Henry S. Sweet, Company A; Captain F. Edgar Williams, Regimental
Adjutant; Captain, Samuel R. Howe, Regimental Quartermaster; Captain Earl A.
Pivan, Company F, Latin School; I st Lieutenants, Romeo Lindenbaum, Company A,

�HE Girls' Chorus Club is still in existence and doing fine work under the leadership
of Mr. Wh1teman. The girls are not heard from as often as the boys, yet th,.y
spend considerable time and study on the works of famous composers. while the
boys sing the less serious songs which appeal to the funny side of one's nature.
The Girls' Chorus Club was organized six years ago by Mr. Whiteman, who spends
one afternoon a week, during the third and fourth quarters, in training them for
the Wolcott contest and also for the graduahng exercises.
The club has a number of remarkable voices in it this year and bids fair to become
the best it has ever been. The first sopranos are exceptionally strong.
"Music hath charms to sooth"- someone has truthfully said ; and when, tired from
the routine of school work, the girls assemble to practice their songs, it takes their
minds off their studies long enough to rid them of that "tired feeling."
The officers of the club this year are: Lolita Snell, librarian; Elizabeth Sutton,
president; Louise Gray, vice-president; Alta Estey, secretary; and F ranees Hoyt, treasurer.
First sopranos- Catherine Moncrieff, Louise Gray, Frances Hoyt, Hazel Taylor,
Ella Duncan, and Elizabeth Hoyt.
Second sopranos- Inez Cobbey, Alta Estey, Ruth Nance, Elfreda Bruhn, and
Dor~thy Steele.
First altos- Elizabeth Sutton, Helen Bruhn, Iva Latenser, Clara Auslender, and

��Ever since .• II! sr hool was foe. ·ded it has had some sort of musical club, as a chorus
club, a mandolin club, or an orchestra. Since 1905 the boys of the school have had
an organized glee club, founded by some enthusiastic members of the senior class of
that year, under the direction and guidance of Mr. Arundel. It has performed at all
the cadet entertainments, and the oratorical and reading contests, and has always been a
source of much enjoyment and pleasure.
This year, rehearsals began earlier than usual, and great interest was shown. A5
the club is comt&gt;osed of sixteen wide-awake boys, there is little wonder as to the progre
it has made. Much credit is due to the members; but the one who has made and kept
the club alive and in a condition worthy of his leadership is Mr. Arundel. Never failing
to be present, and always enthusiastic, he has kept the flame of interest burning throughout
the whole year.
One little blaze burst forth at the senior Hallowe'en party. Only the senior
members sang on this occasion, assisted by Mr. Pitts and Mr. Kester. They, w1th Mr.
Arundel were certainly the blue ribbon costume winners of the evening. When the
effects of this effort had been sufficiently overcome, the club started to prepare for the
senior play. It took a great deal of kindling to prepare for this, the final conflagration.
But when it came about it was found to be well worth the effort and trouble it had coJ.
Eight of the heaviest voices of the club, aided by Mr. Pitts and Mr. Kester, forming a
double quintette, gave several numbers that even eclipsed those sung by the entire club
The songs "Kemo-Kimo" and "Zip! Bang! It hit the mark," (with Mr. P1tts strong
on the "Meow!") were the hits of the evening.
The members of the Glee Club are: Howard Shotwell, Albert Adams, Her~rt
Wilkins, Russell Wells, Milton Allen, Robert Kolinsky, William Cutts, Lewis Dick.

�Don't you remember the day that you started to high school? Of couLe you do.
If you were a boy, you probably had on your first long trousers; and you had learned
on the sly to smoke a pipe. And you, girls! Oh, my! D1dn't you have on you 1
first really long dress? It was the greatest day of your life, that day in September when
you left the atmosphere of the grammar school, and stepped into the realms of Lati'l
and rubber-heeled teachers; of hastily conned lessons and hastily crammed lunches: of
senates and debates, and football enthusiasm.
Instinctively you developed an antipathy for anything related to "Manual."
Before you were even familiar with the Latin vowels, you knew exactly the proper wav
to turn up your nose at the "trainer." Incidentally, you began to use such expressions
as "flunk," "gym," "prof," with the ease of an old timer.
When you saw the pledge cards, your heart sank to your shoes with a dull thud.
For you had cherished dreams of becoming a popular "frat" member. And the only
crumb of comfort you derived from the situation was the thought that you would have
a good excuse if you didn't get a "bid."
Of course you bought the biggest, shmiest tin lunch box you could find, and embelished it with E. D. H. S , in large, straggly letters, blissfully ignorant of the fact
that by doing so you branded yourself "Freshie" as certainly as if you had proclaimrd
it from the highest building in town.
You felt your new dignity strongly when you met an old acquaintance who is still
in grammar school; you greeted her with an air of patronage, which said plamly that yuu
had left all childish things behind, and could never again be on an equality with her.
But your pride was doomed to have a hard fall. Two juniors on the car made
very scathing remarks, in a perfectly audible undertone, about the "Fresh," who, you
knew only too well, was yourself· And after this your conceit oozed out in large quantities. You found that Seniors have little use for Freshmen, except to sell them ticket
to football games or Senior plays. So you resigned yourself to your fate and tried hard
study. For what F reshrnan has not consumed the midnight gas, wrestling with simple {?)
equations, mumbling conjugations of model verbs, or perhaps wondering vaguely whv

�Hannibal had to cross the Alps? Is there one who has not grinded and digged and
!tudied the whole quarter, having sweet dreams of A's, and then been rewarded by the
commonplace B. or the unsatisfactory C? I doubt it.
So the year has passed, and your feeling of importance has dwindled away to a
mere nothing. You realize that those exalted beings called Seniors, whom you formerly
adored, were once as obscure as you.
Next year you will be a Sophomore; and when you see poor, meek, bewildered
Freshmen prowling around the wrong corridor, you will take pity on them, and direct
them to the proper place, thereby relieving their discomfiture, won't you? Not on your
life! You will do your best to make them uncomfortable, grinning fiendishly in anticipation of their confusion, or smiling sheepishly at the memory of your own Freshman
antics.
But what does it matter? Sophs and Seniors, and Juniors, all must have their fun,
and the Freshman is the goat. So here's to the F reshm:m. May you all have mean
tricks played upon you, and in your turn, play meaner ones on the Freshman who comes

Two new offices. Head Boy and Head Girl. were introduced into the school last
fall. at the suggestion of Mr. Kester. The offices are almost a sinecure, the duties bein~
very light; but the requirements for them are many. for the reason that the Ht-ad Boy
and Head Girl are to set an example for the rest of the school. and must have all the
qualities that make the right kind of men and women. and the right kind of citizens:
they must do good class work; they must stand for honesty in school and in school work;
they must take an active interest in athletics ; and they must be popular among their
fellow students. That Alma Melzer and Homer Griffin. who were chosen by their
schoolmates. have met these requirements has been fully shown during the course of
the year. If succeeding Head Boys and Girls come up to the high standard set by
these officers. this will certainly become a fixed institution of the school.

On the evening of April 22nd, in the Woman's Club Building, the senior cia
presented a vaudeville show, thus giving another proof of the energy, originality, and
ability for which it was already famous.
All the performers, with the exception of Shiro's assistant, were members of the
senior class.
The one-act farce was very clever and entertaining, and the parts exceptionally weli
interpreted. Carlisle Thomas, Alma Melzer, Mary Butler, Russell Wells, and Harry
Deisher made up the cast.
The .. School Kids," a singing and dancing act copied from Gus Edward's School
Boys and Girls created great merriment.
The .. kids" were:
Jeannette Bartlett,
Gwendolyn White, Gertrude Cleveland, Eleanor Means, Ruth Brown, Clinton Carney,
James Cowles, Gilbert McDonough, Merrill Hawkins, Will Shafroth; and the teache:
was William King.
The musical family consisting of Ell ida Anderson, Madelyn Keezer, Fletcher
Trunk, and Joseph Bloom, was one of the most enjoyable numbers on the program.
Shiro Taketa and his Japanese friend gave a whirlwind exhibition of the Japanese
wrestling art.
The headliners , if that is possible in an all-star bill, was the minstrels. The clever
wit and the songs were thoroughly appreciated. In the minstrels were: Clinton Carney,
Russell Wells, Clarke Gallup, Milton Allen, Fletcher Trunk, Robert Stearns, Herbert
Wilkins, Howard Shotwell, Glenn Robinson, James Bowler, Robert Kolinsky, Clarence
Brown, Carlyle Campbell, and Walter Newton.
After the show there was a dance in the ballroom, where punch was served.
A great deal of credit is due the committee in charge, which consisted of Harry
Deisher, chairman, Gilbert McDonough, Russell Wells, Ruth Brown, Helen Phelps,
and Ethel Rankin.

When we think of the material contained in the class of 1909, we cease to wonder
that its members have become so successful and prominent in whatever work they may
have taken up. When they were just one class ahead of us, we did not realize that
they were very different from us; but as we observe them now, we wonder how we will
ever keep up the fine record that they and other alumni have established.
We see them in many parts of the country; but in every place and occupation
they have proved a credit to the school. East Denver's Alumni have always brought
the school great credit. A great number of last year's class went to the University of
Denver. Among them are: Frances Brown, Harriette Brown, Edna Cantril, Benne!
Mead, Clara Mozzor, Kate Howland, Willard Banks, Katherine Sheldon, Edna Hills.
Elizabeth M cClear, Max Melville, and Russell Havighorst.

�I was seated down in Room S1xteen,
Not knowing what to write;
When suddenly there came a thought
Which brought to me delight.

For what subject was there worthier
The labor of a pen,
Than the staid and reverend seniors,
The class of 191 0.

Four years ago we entered
On the joys of high school life,
We were freshmen then and all our day
Were full of toil and strife.

For the sophomores would treat us
With the loftiest disdain;
And with algebra, and Latin,
We had to rack our brain.

But next year we, as sophomores,
Had sweet revenge at last;
And looked then with amusement
Upon our freshmen past.

Our sophomore and junior years
Sped rapidly away;
I l seemed that we had risen
To be seniors in a day.

This last, our senior year, has been
The brightest of them all;
Our members won distinction
On the field, and in the hall.

In after years when we look back
Upon our record. then
We'll be proud that we were members
Of the Class of 191 0.

No doubt you ha\e made some plans for the near future, and whether
you fimsh your course in college now or later, it is well for you to begin
to think about the financial responsibilities of life.
If you continue your course in college, when you have finished, you
must be ready for business. Your college course may determine your business career. Make the best of it. Show your ability as a financier by
saving part of your allowance, be it large or small. Create a sinking fund,

�History
Four years we have truggled valiantly with mathematics and cience, stopping occa ionally
to ma ter Cicero, Xenophon, chiller or Goethe, and now as we stand tremblingly on the thre hold
of the future, let u
Pau e, with our thoughts turning backward once mor&lt;',
To give a farewell to the pa t .

o often have we pau cd in our hurry to pre the hand of clas mates who have left our rank
or to linger at the graveside and pay a tribute to the memory of tho. e who have been called to the life
beyond, that of the cia of three hundred and four girl and boys as fair and a brave a ever entered
the e cla ic balls but one hundred and twelve reruain.
L~l u

rev1ew the scene,

And summon from the hadowy past
The forms that once have been.

At times the quiet course has been enlivened by the victories of our cla. smates. In our first year
there came a forerunner of our grand achievement . Iren.! Viancourt captured the \\'olcott medal for
reading. The next year, Ruth Cleaveland fuil id~m. During our fourth year, tVIo prize have been
appropriated by member of our cla. s, Harry Frueanff winning the ·woodbury medal for declamation,
and Arthur ye the Baker medal for excellence in debate. \\'e look with admiration and wonder on
the ucce of our weet-voiced singer, uelaide Beard ley, who ha won her way into the heart of
everyone by the purity and strength of her voice. With her song he ba delighted many an audience,
and has received well-merited reward in the appreciation of her bearer . But not alone on the ro trum
and in the concert hall ba our clas become famous. Who that cares for athletic sports ha not heard
of Hamlin Mann on the diamond, or of the succe s of Harry mith, Clark, Wanle. s, and Bellow on
the foot-ball team? In the social world our succe s ba been phenomenal. The members of no other
cla shave been bidden to o many office reception , to say nothing of the side entertainment provided
for our especial plea ure by the teachers. Among the many social and secret ocietie existing in the
cla may be mentioned the Latin I. E. D., the Alpha, and the I. 0. D. of our tal wart clas ica1s, and
the K. C., upported by the boy of the German. During these four year , the gay and frivolous boys
and girls, fresh from the graded chool , have been tran formed into a grave and dignified fir t class.
Our po ition is defined by our Pre ident in his inaugural addre s.
aid be: "We are the lords of
creation. The world is at our feet. Let us keep it there. \Ve are the life of the school. But for us the
doors would creak on ru ty hinge , the ball become de erted, piders would weave their webs over
mu ty volumes in the library, and crows would build their ne ts in the hair of the dozing faculty."
ow, as the door to life stand open before us, we would loiter on it&amp; threshold, but eager '95
crowd u on, and we can but pau e an in tant ere we tep aero to expre our appreciation of the
guiding care of our teachers, and mingle with their farewells the cry
Long live the D. H.
Long live '94 I

"We do not plant this tree in a hou e where it will be protected from the sc&lt; rching summer's

�The Lyceum Society

"?T"" HE Lyceum Literary ociety date its birth from October 3d,

1 76- the a me year that the
Centennial tate was admitted to the Union. The fir t meeting was held in the old Arapahoe
chool house, which is now but a memory of the past, and who e huge iron bell i now to be
een on the lawn in front of the pre ent High chool. The charter members included uch youths a
Irving Hale and Robert W. teele, men whose influence ha since been f~lt in the community.
The ociety had a flourishing existence even before the fir·t cia s graduated. Much of it
progre.s i due to three incidents in the early history of the High chool.
lr. James H . Baker, now
Pre ident of the Univer ity of Colorado, but then at the head of the school, offer d a prize for excellence in debate. The first conte twa won by John Hipp.
1r. R. \V, Woodbury offereci a prize to the
best boy speaker, and Mr. H. R. \Volcott to the be tgirl speaker. As the practice gained in the regular
work of the Lyceum was of invaluable aid in
these contests, interest in the Society rapidly
grew in the chool, and in 1886 1t \\as conidered advisable to divide the ociety and
form a new one. Accordingly, a number of
the staunchest members of the old Society
formed themselves into a new organization
called the Attic.
The two Societie soon became active
rivals, which promoted a great improvement in
the quality of the work done by the members
of each.

The Attic Society

J

T IS claimed by many of the teachers
of the High School that more good is
obtained from the literary societies than
from any one study in the school. For many
years, one ociety was able to care for all those
who wished to spend ome tirue in equipping
themselves to appear in public, but after the
new building was completed and the school
became larger, it became necessary to form a
new Society, and the presen~ prosperous Attic,
with its one hundred and fifty members is the
result. As the result of efforts begun in the
Tnr: FooT BALL T•·.A:&gt;~ , I:AST Dcsn :Jt
High chool ociety, the Lyceum and Attic
join hands, and each proudly claims a share of the honors that the worlu out,it.le tile High chool have
showered upon such member a Hon. John Hipp, Irving Hale, Robert W. Steele, Alice Ea twood,
Elias 1. Ammons, Charles M. Clinton, Edward B. Morgan, Robert J. Pitkin, FrankL. Bishop, Franci

L. Pike, Joe Newman, C. K. Durbin, \V. E. Hutton, E. P. Co tigan, D. E. Friar, and W. Kavanagh.
We must not fail to mention some of the members of our Society of the present year. Irene F.
Viaucourt bas graced the platform at every public meeting but one since she entered the school, and
alone enjoy the honor of serving two terms as Secretary. Ade!aide Beardsley, a a singer, stands without
a peer in her cia s work. Among the debaters and parliamentarians should be mentioned Arthur M.
ye, \Valstein Haas, and T. Matteson Mallory, all of whom participated in the prize debate this year.
\Vith our long list of orators, declaimers, singers, and essayi ts, we do not hesitate to say that the work

�Foot Ball

hJ\. ORE interest has been felt by members of our school
l.IIJ this year in all athletic sports (e pecially foot ball ) than
ever before. All the games have been well attended by
partie from the school, and many teachers bowed their appreciation of the boy ' efforts by their pre ence on the field.

ayre could be seen or heard in their midst.

The interest the boys took in their work aud the systematic
way they went about it under the supervision of their coach,
Louis Witko ki, made them what they were-the pride and honor
of all members of the Denver High chool. The only defeat suffered in a match game was in the last
one of the ea on with the eleven from the Golden High School by a score of 12 to 4· The first game
was played at the Broadway Athletic Park with the Golden High chool ancl won by our boy by a
score of 42 to o ; the second, at Boulder, with the tate Preparatory chool eleven was won by a score
of 14 too; the third, with the orth Denver bo) s, only lasted one-half, at the end the score being
16 too in favor of the East Denver ; the fourtll and last game was lost to Golden under circum tances
which made deieat almost excusable. The High School has good reason to be proud of its foot ball
team of '93 and '94 which bas borne its colors to so 1uany brilliant victories and won for the school a
high place in amateur foot ball circles.

Base Ball
THE early part of the season, when t.nthu iasm in base ball became manifest, it was the belief
of the captain and manager of the High chool team that they would be unable to organize a
team whose success and achievements would compare favorably with the record of previous
High chool clubs. However, under the critical supervision of Captain Harker and Coacher Funke,
the club of this year has exceeded all expectation and has justly received the heartiest applau P at
every game. We may attribute much of our success to our young and almost phenomenal pitcher,
Harry Canby. By his puzzling curves he has baffied the efforts of some of Denver's most skillful
batters.
1r. Canby is carefully supported by Herbert Herr behind the bat and an almo t perfect infield
with Hamlin 1ann on first base, Dwight Johnston on econd, Fritz Harker on third cu bion and Will
Hodges at hort stop. Fly ball and grounder sometimes pas these players only to be well received
and delivered by a good outfield, having Glen Latimer iu the center, Adelbert 1itchell in left and John
Bo in right. The manager was Kyle Rucker and Messrs. Meldrum and Wanless were substitutes.

�The High Scheol Cadets

J

T I

impos ible to e timate the enthusiasm of the Cadets of predous years in the East Denver
High School. Certain it is that the Cadet of '91 believes him elf the most favored and illustrious that ever " fronted" and "wheeled" before the admiring eyes of the world-the eyes
pf the fair feminine world e pecially. It is true our campaigns were restricted to routing imaginary
foes, and to expedition of ten or twelve miles, when we went into camp with more discipline than a
regiment of Regulars. But on exhibition days we drilled with a magnificence that sent chagrin and
envy deep into the souls of the boys who had not the grandeur of brass buttons.
Of cour e, we all longed for an opportunity to distinguish our elves, and under this bright sky,
the tingling air eemed a direct breath of in piration from tho e old snow-crowned veterans, the
mountains, who tood grim guard along the western horizon. The adventure of the "Three Guardsmen" for a time held a place that no other book would supply. For, old-fa hioned and middle-aged
as it was, we who read it felt a high scorn of the days in which
we lived, and a resentment toward the fate that had cast our
hves in them.
\Ve longed to do something gorgeously
demonstrative, and the nearest possibility was a wish to challenge the little fellow who was always "cutting" drill. Thi
would have been mo t unmilitary, however, and we had to
content our elves with a court-martial instead of an encounter,
in which we intended to come off covered with blood and glory.
o much for fancies! In very reality we have had a
y~ar of most profitable work and delightful comrade hip, that
will make each one of us wish to put further away the time for
the last handshake on the Ia t day of thi , a red-letter year in
our live .
On the 24th day of May, we celebrated the tenth anniver ary of the organization by a formal battalion inspection, in
which General McCook, of the Department of Colorado, U. . A.,
officiated. He spoke in a very complimentary manner of the
general appearance of the companies, and by hi incere and
pleasant critici ms encouraged both officers and men in obtaining a higher ideal of perf&amp;tion.
The list of the member of the organization is a long
ot~e, but will probably intere t the friend of the chool.

HOOL

�Yet all was not ea y; unlearned les ons, long hour~ after school, thoughtless trick~. unlawful
fun - all had their part iu the t&gt;arly history of tl!e Class of '95. Troubles we had, too. Why would we
stumble over the deceitful matting at the door of the As~embly Room~ Why would tl!ey persist in
calling us" the infants?" Poor little fourth cia ! though your joys are many, it is} our fate to he
humiliated. Then the curtain was rung down upon one )·ear' act in our little drama of High School life.
During this year, we firmly established our reputation as students, and settled dowu to work.
Busy brains fathomed old Cre ar's most difficult passages, and bright minds mastered pl!ysic completely. Why, we even weut so far a toe tabli b a new formula for "Energy;" and by tl!e end of the
year, had di tingui bed ourselves in the class room and on the athletic field.
econd class pupils have ranked high in everything; second class work lias been prai ed and
lauded, and each day bas brought forth something to add to our glory. Let us recall briefly some &lt;Jf
the things iu which we l!ave gained celebrity.
First, a to the two different divisions. Though a Classical, and justly proud of her own order,
the historiau is fully aware that the Generals bold equal honors.
It eems as though the spirit of Alexander has pervaded the Greek clas~, for besides the completion of the Anabasis, it has "sighed for more worlds," and has conquered the Yale, Harv.1rtl aud
Wellesley examinations with wonderful success. One enjoyable feature of this class is its ociability.
As a member said: "We are one large family, with Mr. Libby at the head ." Whether Mr. Liuby is
as proud as we are of thi distinction, it is not for us to say.
We are proud to say that the four strongest players in the base ball nine are "our boys." Hodges
as short stop is excellent. His knowledge of geometry enables him to calculate the distance to first
base so accurately. Velocity, momentum, and other physical matters are so familiar to him tbat the
number of base hits of the opposing nine is reduced to the infinite imal. Latimer has sbown so much
ability that his accurate center-fielding and safe hitting have become almost proverbial. Tl!ree cheers
for Glen! Even if the score book does prove more intere ting at times thau Cicero's oration , and if he
does hit a ball oftener than the meaning of Xenophon's translations, we will forgive him. Captain
Harker, at third base, adds lustre to the "diamond;" Herr sticks close to the bat, and woe betide
the player who attempts to steal a base.. The foremost players of the foot ball team are members &lt;Jf
the second class, wbile the Cadet organization has many representatives among '95· Regarding the
literary societies, we can rightly claim the best talent in both oratory and ess~y writing. \Ve also take
pride in having the two recognized authorities on parliamentary law.
Have we not talent? Have we not the promise of a glorious future? Ab, in after years, our
voices shall be heard from the pulpit, the platform, tl!e senate, the court-room, and the school! Our
names shall be placed on the roll of fame, and our good deeds will stand as monuments. "One heart,
many ways!" May the class motto be
verified in after years, when, scattered
and distant, this tie of friend hip shall
serve to keep fresh the sweet memory of
the Classicals of '95 !

Class History of '96
~ A T year Fourth Clas , this year Third Clas !

What a hort time, yet what migbty results!
The first morning, as we marched tremuling up to the A embly Room as Fourth Clas , we felt
privileged only to be in it. The dignity and intellect of the First Class awed us; the econd
Class were too near them to cause us any vulgar competition; but the Third Class~ah, we re,erenccd
them. \Vere they not our intellectual superiors and moral advisers? EYeD their looks of disdain were
a condescension on their part, gratefully receiYed. "Time in its rapid flight" launched us from the
Fourth Class of '93 into the bosom of '94· In Physics we learned that much Light was thrown on
many subjects; that sounds were nothing but waves; that Buo~eo's burner didn't smoke; and that
gas was natural and necessary. In visiting the colrl storage we found that the turkeys were not for
souvenirs, so there was no thanks-given. In the Sheridan Building we found that electro-j.Jlates were
not to be eaten from, and when visiting the power house that free rides \\ere not given with information.
• Geometry taught us that all propositions were not to the fair, whiie from Cresar we learned bow to
conquer Gaul. Rhetoric teaches you that it is meet to study well the use of feet. One of the most
powerful speakers chosen for the Prize Deoate was Herbert Belford, but owing to illness was unable to
be there to receive the prize. We hope that tho e who come after will strive to emulate our shining
example and learn as we have that the four stages of High School life have been exemplified by
hakespeare's plays: Fourth Class-" Comedy of (T) Errors"; Thud las~-" Much Ado About
othing "; Second Class-" As You Like It"; First Class-" All's Well That Ends \\'eii."-L. JJ.f. B.

Class History of '97

7J+J'f1 E, the cla s of '97, have but launched our ship on the great ea of education. Our history is
~

only just begun. Already a great deal bas happened to make us an important element in
our chool, and this gives us the as urance that we are destined to have a remarkable career.
At first we were greatly burt by the cutting remarks of the upper cla ses, who never seemed to
remember that once they, too, were "green and youthful kindergartners." However, by this time we
have proved to them that our ability reaches far and wide. Originally we numbered three hundred,
but ixty-three of our number have gone to the Manual Training chool. We have distingni bed
ourselves as actl\e members in the school societies and have displayed our talent on many occa ions.
Among us may b~ found a Patti, a Paderewski and many an orator who bids fair to become as great as
Demo thems. Finnerty well represented us in the Woodbury Contest, and Mamie McCallin won the
Wolcott pnze . Our Freshman da) s are numbered.
ext year we ball occupy Third Cia s places. Let
us aim high f&lt;Jr succtss and know no faihug.

med-

The greater part of the hi tory of the class of '94 i a record of peace and harmony, with scarcely
a dark day to shadow the happiness of its thirteen members.
Since its entrance, it has always been a potent factor of the North Side High chool. When
their wonderful ability was known, the Club and Lyceum were equally d,.sirous of showing their appreciation and of conferring their highest offices upon us . In the fall 1 go, forty-four boys and girls
entered the assembly room as full fledged members of the High chool. They took their places with
timid demeanor, such as cbaracterizes the student on the first day of the first year of High School
life. But this subdued spirit, like that of Dido, was tossed on a fluctuating tide.
"Then came a change, all things human change" and the class of '94 was deprived of some of
its members. These cho en ones accompli bed in three years the work on which we have pent four.
On the eigl:th of October, r8go, the ninth grade met at the solicitation of its teacher to effect a
class organization. This was accomplished and the elass of '94 has the honor of being the first to effect
a complete class organization. We are now the class of '94 with old rose and cream for our colors, and
"finis coronat opus" for our motto.
This class was the first to suggest picnics. One of the cherished relics of a pic-nic is a charming
group at luncheon , wbich by close crutiny may be recognized as the class of '94 engaged in its favorite pastimeeating.
The first and at present only class yell is :
"Thirteen ! Th1rteen I
Want no more ;

North Side H•gh School,
Class or '9-4·"

But these are minor things. Amoug the facts that
may help influence our future history are:
That we may expect examinations on Monday more
than any other day in the week, although we have not
learned why.
We have learned that:
"Flowers are the sweetest things God ever made and
forgot to put a soul into."

And here the history end for the present. Whether the class of '94 is to have a hi tory in the
future is as yet unknown. Probably some of us may make a noise in the world if it is nothing more
than a howl(" Howell "), while the influence of others may be felt ("Felt" ). But the history of the

In I 8 when the High School of District Number
eventeen wa held in Arbuckle Hall, the ambitious
pupils formed two debating societies. These societies flouri bed and after the new building "'as completed the titles "North ide High cbool Lyceum" and "Ashland Club" were chosen. At present
each society bas about eighty-five members on its roll-call, and bas the regular order of officers: President, Vice-President, ecretary, Treasurer, also Program and 'linor Committees.
~feelings are held bi-monthly, the Lyceum and Club alternating. The program is of the usual
musical and literary order. The elocution teacher trains the pupil who read or recite, and the music
in tructor has charge of the vocal music. At the eud of every term each society gives an open meeting
to which the public is invited.
There is great rivalry between the two societies, but it i generally considered that the talent in
the school is about evenly divided.
The present pfficer of th e Lyceum are :
President, Burton Pike; Secretary, anarutb Taggart; Treasurer, Edwin Zell.
Those of the Ashland Club:
President, Grace Glascoe; Vice-President, Gilbert Johnson; ecretary, tuart Booth; Treasurer, .Walter Zell.
ew officers are cbo en at the beginning of each term.

�North Side High School- Junior Clas
The Juniors were fir t organized into a cla society when they were young and giddy Fre hmen,
and since that time have been increasing in giddine~s. until now the emors say they are "perfectly
awful."
They have been noted for their brilliant intellects, and a they are not afraid of using their
talents, their cia s parties are among the mo t enjoyable of the various class societies. Their colors are
cherry and black. As yet they have not attained to the dignity of a cla s yell.
If all the members continue in chool, the class of '95 v.ill be the large t ever graduated from
the orth ide High School. Following i a list of the members:
Bettie Blake, tuart Booth, Bee Duer, Emma Ecker, \Villiam Haffey, Rosa Hersey, Eva Jackson,
Gilbert John on, Clara Kavanaugh, Ed win Kent, Lyla Kyle, Mary Osborne, latilda Rosenfeld, Beatrice
impson, Anna Smith, Chester medley, Arthur Stark, May tevens, Bertha St. John, Cora Taylor,
Ella Todd, Robert Wolff, Edward Zell, Walter Zell.

Sophomore Class
The Class of '96 is next to the largest in the school, embracing one Aicher, and is also the strongest,
the Powers of the school being found in this class. It ought to be very sharp as it contains a Pike, but
this is counteracted by tbe pre ence of a leeper. The class contains a number of noted physical
cnlturi ts, prominent among whom is a Walker. The Swain of the class happens to be a young lady,
who often hears the familiar quotation, "Come into the Garden, Maud." The path of the boys often
veers Lee-ward, and the presence of a certain young lady causes other to "Trimble." The cla~s flower
varies between a Ro e and a laple (Agnes).

Cia s History
In epteruber, 189&lt;J, the cla of '94 entered the West Denver High School. It then numbered
about sixty pt•pil and wa compo ed largely of tudent from the Franklin and Logan cbools. The
class of '94 i in many respects the most distinguished of any
ever graduated from this High School. It was the first to
complete the four year course of sturly, and consequently
has been somewhat experimented upon.
otwitbstanding
strenuous efforts on the part of the faculty and board of
education, it was not permitted to enjoy the privileges and
advantages of the ew High School Building until January
2, 1&amp;}3.

The cia s now has a membership of twenty-four, and
with but two exceptions, those of Mr. Elder, who entered
in the second ye• ~,and Mr. Phelps in the third, its members
have gone through the four years together. The cia feels
proud that it has captured two Donald Fletcher medals, a
bakespeare prize, and a Revolutionary medal, for which
the pupils of High ~chools throughout the state competed.
From the rather chaotic condition of the first year's work
the class was rescued, systematized and arranged by the
present worthy principal, 1r. Hermanns, who has gained
the admiration and re pect of all his pupils and fellowworkers. The introduction of practical gymna tics into the
High School has proven to be of ine timable value, a the
graceful carriage of the young ladie and young gentlemen
will testify. Drawing ha received con iderable attention
during the pa t two years, and much slumbering talent

bas sprung into life under the influence of in piring surroundings and an enthusia tic instructor. Thecla socials have been a pleasant diversion from the
work of the school room, and have enabled the members of the cla~s to form a nearer acquaintance and
clo er bond of friend hip bel\ een themselves and teacher .
o the day ha\·e fled, month have lengthened into years. What seemed in the beginning a
dream, ha now become a reality.

�The Class of '95
The Clas of '95 has the honor of having entered the West Denver High chool at the a me time
that their re peeled principal, Prof. Edward F. Hermanns made his appearance there.
The cia consisted of about sixty members when it entered, now about forty students belong.
It boa t of an unu ually large number of brightlight . All branche of tudy, which call for the greate t
ability, are o well repre ented that the name of certain member are always a ociated with them.
Despite its fault , of which it has many, it ha done much to add lustre to the fame of the chool.
The work which thi cia ha accompli bed has been excelled only by the indefatigable zeal displayed
hy the principal, in making the true value of the school equal, if not superior, to any other in the tate.

Lookin. b k upon our fiht ye r of High chool work, I am reminded of nothing o mu ch as
th larva of Butterfhe . \\'e were very tender, very nnobtru ive, ea er for food (brain food), and not
in the lea t offended by the area tic epithet "infant , " be towed by the Juniors and eniors. We are
b ginning to fi elnow like full-fledged butterflie , ready to flutter our wing· and. oar to pastures new.
n a mild larch afternoon in the old recitation room "A," a youth with dreamy voice and low
w murmurin of
ar nd hi Gallic war . He h d frequently be n ur ed to " ·peak freely," but
Ia I the tri I of hi faint tone was one too ru ny for the already overwrought nerve of the teacher,
and in a fit of rle peration be e. claimed, "Oh I what a voice for maid and a moon-lit piazza." The
youth ought refuge behind the cover of his book, and there aro e from hi companions a merry laugh,
prolonged and loud.
'Twa a beautiful afternoon two months later, the cene the aforesaid recitation room, but the
windows were open now, and drowsy insects flew to and fro.
uddenly, as if from an electric hock,
our quiet, gentle Mary sprang from her seat and rushed from the room. All waited in breathless
suspense, save one lad, who vainly strove to suppress a tell-tale smile and escape the angry glance of
his teacher. What was the cause of all this commotion? Only a poor, harmless grasshopper, which
this lad had slyly dropped down the back of his neighbor. " Holgate, you may visit me after school,"
said the mi tress of the angry glance, and quietly resumed the lesson. But, oh! thi was not all. \Vhen
came the Ia t day of school, and the principal had fini bed his remarks, the male quartette aro .
Forth came the words of a strange new son&amp; to the tune of the " weet bye and bye." The boy and
the grasshopper had been made'' a name in history, and a light iu ong.''
One young man from our number seemed to posse the happy faculty of tran lating by instinct,
as it were, all pa ages in Virgil pertaining to love. Tbi we will admit is a rare gift, but when it led
him to con true as such, other passages which he did not understand, it was to ay the lea t amusing.
Another young man whose thoughts ran in the same direction, one day rendered the passage: "The
miserable woman destined to future ruin," "The miserable woman due to her future pestilence," and
on being asked what this pe tilence was, replied , that he " gues ed it must mean love."
trange to ay
the minds of the young ladies took an entirely different turu in tran lating Latin, and even went so far
as to merit the name "barbarian ." The girl sustained the army of one of Cre ar's enemies during the
winter, on the forces of another enemy, while in Virgil, a pupil harl Andromache sent across the flood
to Helenus a food .
A young man of delicate constitution and of muscles born weary, one day conceived the idea Of
ab enting himself from drill in calesthenics by secreting his person in a large packing box in the
dre ing room, His plan ucceeded admirably till a fellow pupil in pa ing, placed the lid in po ition
and he was a prisoner. Here be remained during the first part of the les on, when his absence bemg
noticed, hi biding place was spied . He wa much relieved to be freed from his hermitage, though
..:ompelled to return omewhat ingloriously to class.

An examination of the new catalogue of the State University shows
that the cour es of Study in the collegiate department have been
thoroughly reorganized. There are four course the classical, the
philo ophlcal, the scientific and the literary. Certain studies called
basic; are common to aU , others called charact.e nstic belong to the particular degre~ ":imed. at, and the others are free
electives. The student IS held to certa1o es enllal work, but later i penmlted to spec1ahze w1th reftrence to hiS a1ms and
t~udcncics. These cour es arc _a marked contrast to the fixed curriculum prcvaili~g in colleges~ few years ago, w}?ich was
httle ~or': than an advanced hl&amp;"h school course of study ; and they may fAirly cia 1m to be supenor to those fouud 10 many
large m~titut1ons to· day. Each department offers many electives enabling the student to pursue a particular hoe as far
as he cboo es. ~toreover, graduate " work 1s alrcadv given and a number of studenl!lt are enrolled for the advanced
degrees of laster of Art ana Doctor of Philo&lt;ophy. The e facts are significant in that they how the University to be
genuinely a university, according to the plan of HArvard , Yale or !:ich1gan . The univ~rsilles in the country that are thu
organized are comparatively few, and tbe people of Colorado should recognize with pride the merits of an institution that
is peculiarly their owu. The faculty has on its list a larg~ proportion of men who have taken an advanced degr~e in their
specialty, and the teaching fore~ . according to the s1ze and needs of the 1nstituliou , is as large and able as that of the older
universities .

Dear Annual: Tour imitation to write th J nnior l'la IIi tory wa brought
to the Knocker' office thi morning by Bobbie ~\llen and Wm. King. The Knocker
is in a quandary. Had the imitation b Pn brought by a r -.ponsiblc committee the
honor would have been highly appreciated. A it i , the l nocker think the joke
i@ on itself. 'l'he Knocker doe not mind slamming the . chool at large but concentrating the fire of its pen on 1910 •em::- to it lik turning a ratlintT gun oli
Trunk'::; alarm watch. The Knocker, however, i nothing if not oblicring, and is
ever ready to li ten to the 'oice of duty.
1910 i fortunate in it environment. It i" bordered on one ide by perfection,
1909; on the other by promi~e, 1911. The two remaining ides border on pace.
One of th • prominent characteri.;;ties. inte it. organization, ha been it· paciouanes.. It- ela:' motto--"To aim at nothing i, not to fail"-reflccts it mental fiber.

The clas of 1910 are the " ever weat..;;" of the chool.
on picuou in inaction, inton.picuou.: in action. Here you have it in tabloid form. Without 1910,
flunking would be a thing of the pa~t.

and love for fu sand feather..

�The tnwk sea:-on that ha~ just pa,sed wa, not a de&lt;"ided . tteec~..; for Ea~t Denver,
nor wa it a failure. \Ye nwt the Freshmen o( the University of olorado on )farch
2~th, and haa a deci::;i\e def&lt;'nt handed to u ; but we were cxp •cting thi , with our
star athlPt , YandPmocr, out or it and the r ::;t · of the team made up of "green"
men. The collp~e boys had almost everything their own way. We took our defeat
like true . port~men, fe ling we were defeated, not by men of our own ability, but
by tho:-e who were more •xp&lt;'ri&lt;&gt;nced. and b0tter train d than we wer . The next
nH•et we entered wa the one h •ld among the enver IIicrh chools. In thi we
were victoriou~, winning with a large margin. The Ia t one of the . &lt;'a,.on, but not
the lea t in importance, wa the one held in Boulder on May 16. W • made a game
fight for thi and hould have won it could we have had a fre h man for the relay
team. Two of th m&lt;'n on thi team broke Rtat&lt;' r &lt;"Orc1. : the 100-\ lHd da h wa cut
down to 10 .econd b.'· andemocr, and th&lt;' 220-yarcl hurdle wa. 'rut at 27 ::;econd
by Woodward. This wa. tiH' first time that the HP&lt;l ana Whit waR made to play
second fiddle, a we had won all the meet held at Boulder hdorc this time.
The track and fi&lt;'ld athlc tic in Ea..;t Dl•mcr for the coming year had a very
good beginning, .'atunlny. .\ pril 3rd. wlwn the annual cro~ -country run wa
made. It wa' O\'c•r tlw I empr Uniwrsib· cour:-P nncl wa made in ven fa t time.
The fir..;t man to fini:-h for Enst D 'nrer 'wa:- Tobin. and he wa· s t·onc'I one of all
the "&lt;"hool..; entc•r0cl to fini:-h. One of our m&lt;'n wa:- third to fini~h. coming in about
'?00 y:p·,ls nlwa&lt;l of hi~ do:-e=-t follower. .\ 11 of the ".\.ngelf;" finished and they were
not all in-down :mel out-wlwn th&lt;'Y cro~. eel the lin&lt;', 0ithPr. When the total numbt·r of points wa finally Jigured out it was found that Ea:-t Denver came out econd,
the f:nme pla&lt;·c that we haYe had in year~ lwn•tofon•. Our t0am wa &lt;'Ompof'ed of the

1656 GRADUATES

cbool, G R EETING:

The Univer ity of Denv r will naturally become more and more the Cniversity
tor young people m and near Denver. We have now more gr.1duates residing in
D enver than any other two educational institutions. s~ per c nt of the students at
Col u mbia live within fifty miles of New York.
More than half the students at H arvard Ii·ve within fifty miles of Cambridge. Why should any student in or near D enver go away from home to tudy? N o college can offer more thoro work than we are
givinrr at l!niversity Park. The in truction you are offered at horne is as good in
qualit) as the best instructiou you are offered away from home. Then remember that
we offer every day ten times more courses of study than any student can possibly take.
A student who can leave home in th morning and enjoy the discipline of college life
during the day and then return home in the evening. has the best po sible opportunity
to develop intellectual and moral power. Moral health i of more consequence than
intellectual acuten
in the race of life. Do not fcHget that.
H oping to see you at Univer ity Hall on our opening day in eptember, I am
Yery sincere Iy,
H~:. RY A. BurHTEL, Chancellor.

Why a Knowledge of
Shorthand Pays
Edward Bok, editor of the Ladie ·' H ome .Journal. who began his career as a
stenographer, has thi to say regarding the valu of. horthand:
··The value of horthand to young men i ~ that it is apt to place them often in a
position of confidence, and brings them into d1rect contact with their employers, thus
giving them an insight into th inner workings of a business which they could
scarcely obtain in any other way."
Y oung men who are keen obsen ers of business conditions are studying shorthand. T here is no better stepping stone to position of tru t and remuneration.
Summer Term Opens Monday, June 7th.
