You went to morning exerci~ in the tudy hall; once a

lu. tily ang Hail, Hail East Denver, hoar ely rah, rahed and
i boom bahed, and bean ouped and pumpkin pied upon the
slighte t provocation. Did you go to the game ? Well-ye !
You were there, a perfect )111phony of red and white-truly,
olamon in all hi glory wa. not arrayed like one of you.
You led a happv sheltered life ov r at dear old Latin

on the milk of human kindne. , you thrived unmole. ted for one
whole year-to you ophomore. wer m re name , not . en. ations. But with all your implicity, you had learned a lot that
year. You knew that, deluded a you were by their fir t flattering visit, the senior had little u e for you except when they
wanted to . ell . orne ticket., and that the habit of carrying pile
of book wa. a decided breach of etiquette.

era when High cho 1 wa not the one bright lode- tar
of our existen e, and the eighth grade off red the only
de tination worth attaining- those dark time are too painfully
ob:scure for anv senior to burden hi over-taxed brain with;
and we are not intere. ted in re arch work just now anyway.
It i to the time when High chool, that land of promi e, that
abode of learning, tood alluringly within our eager, expectant
orasp, and we happy young produ t of eight year · of public
school system, bought lunch boxe and Latin grammar · and
eros · d the Rubi on of our freJ1 young live· .
• To number of older brother: and _i ter · had ever prepared

day at dear old Latin hool; were you ever o wretchedly tired,
o ravi. hingly hungry in all your lif ? You wearily thought of
all the day befor you long and weary day from nine o'clock
in the morning till half-past twelYe without a bite of lun h.
Of course, it wa thrilling to get out at half-pa:,;t two, but thennothing mattered any more, and with an a hing lump in your
throat and an aching void eb where you started down to
Herri k's with a li. t of hook , for which you had to wait hour .
But that was ju. t the fir.;;t day; by the end of the month
you could . ay "flunk' a. ea. ily a orne can flunk- you were

�HREE year· ago there entered within the cla sic wall of
East Denwr High ."rhool a band of light hearted and
enthu ia tic boy and ~rirb, who formed the great clas of
1915. Then, we were Freshmen. \\"e were ignorant of highschool way- and manners. .b a consequence, we ,,·ere derided
by our uperior ( ?) . But we grew accu,tomed to our new surroundings and et to work to become \\:hat \\·e now ar •, the be t
lass that ever entered East Denver.
A Fre:-hmen, we learned several new and interesting
thing . l\Iany of us became acquainted with the people who
li,·ed in Greece and Rome. \\'hen we found out that there were
other great people on this earth besides our:- ·lves, some of u:felt Lo grie,·ed that we refu:ed to stud), and worked for monagram imtead. Other · of us desired to gain a knowledge of the
way the Romans talked, . o we studied Latin ("\\'hat fools we
mortal· be~''). \\'e all took Alrrebra, not be ause we wanted to,
but because we had to. The daily . truggle · with it wore u: out,
and, a a re ult, in June we \rere in a fitting ·tate of mind to
welcome vacation.

La~t year we were
ophomore,. A~ we had grown both
mentally and php.ically, we were more re;.pe ted by "the power·
that b ·" (mean in~ the :-enior. ) . \\"h ene,·er teacher:, wanted
advice that could be depended on, they naturally come to u .
But, the gentle reader may a~k why they came to u. e. pe ially.
The an,;wer i,.., becau~ our work in the cla~" room wa" "o good
that the Faculty wer • inLpired with confidence in u . Thi
honor, howe,·er, did not make u · feel boa~tful; in tead, it filled
u with a determination to do . till better.
o, when we learned
that "Gaul as a whole i · divided into thre' part~." we did not
. uccumb to the fear of coming disa ter, but " ailed on," and
eventually landed at our de:-;tination. \\'e abo . tudied mathematic~ that made old Euclid (in) famous
Plane Geometry.
In thi~, a. in everything else we undertook, we came out with
flying color..
in e we de~ired to learn about chivalry, ~orne­
thing which we never knew of before, we were .glad to tudy
Engli:-;h, where we read about the Knight of the Round Table.
Those with peace-loving dispo,..ition.- carefully avoided the warlike hi tory of England.

o many of you enior con igned
him to unmentionable places or hoped that he might hovel coal
for eternity, because he wrote that essay on Burns, that the
poor man had to do it. But that remind · me, do you ~ee that
man o\·er there with a rifle?"
''Ye ·" I an~wered "what i he . hooting at?"
' \\'ell, that' Bobbie Burns, and he' trying to hoot either
\\'orldly Ambition or Poetry, but he can't get a incrlcne of
aim."
"Poor man," said I, "hasn't he got that yet?"
By thi time we had reached the theatre. As we were goincr
in who hould I see but my tory-book idol, ydney Carton.
"Oh, I'm so crlad I met you," I ex laimed. "I alway have
wanted to see you and tell you what a hero I thought you were in
the "Tale of Two itie ." I think you are the perfectly grande t man."

"Oh, indced," said a voice at my ide. "Well, I appreciate
that \'er) much, especially ince he i my hu band.''
"Dido," I cried in urpri c. "\\'here did you come from?
\\'here i~ ' ichaeu~, I thought he was your huslmnd ?"
'I h ka biuule about hun; I crot a divorce long ago," said
that young lady. " 'ome 'ydney, we must IJe &lt;roing. I have
an engagement with the dres~-maker," and with a word ~he
walked off.
" amc old Dido,' ' I remarked as we entered the show.

keen about ·uch an arrangement, and every once in a \\ hile they
haYe some exciting scene· not meant for picture plot .
"By the way, ?\apol eon i going to lecture on how he would
handle the :\Iexican ·ituation. Do you want to hear it?''
"I hould ~ay not; I get enough of that in .chool. But who
i~ that croocl-looking boy over there? lie ha been trying to
attract vour attention for the last fifteen minute . .''
"'!~hat'· ycln y Darnay, you know, the boy who was named
after ydney Carton. He '· a frat brother of mine. Hey Syd,
come over here!"
ydney joined us, and after a few remark about the
weather asked if we wouldn't go for a ride in hi · auto. I readily
consented as I liked him very mu h, and he reminded me of my
brother Ralph. A,:caniu refu:ed on the plea that he had to go
to foot-ball practice. I wa · rather glad a
ydncy wa · so nice,
and "two's a company, three's a crowd."
I couldn't tell how long we rode nor where. I remember
pa. sing Piermont Gould selling hoc tring on the corner and
hearing Edmund Burke and Cicero eli cu ·ing . ome xciting
event as we rode uy. But otherwi~e I wa too intere ted in
learning how to run an auto and wondering where a boy who
had lived at the tim of th · French Revolution had learned to
. ay so many nice things, to be able to notice much el e.
\\'h at I do remember i that I heard a voice ju t at the most

upon old-~tyle fo otball, and the hea\·y-sma..;hing backfield worked
rro;;;;-hucks and line ;;ma;;he-; perfect]), \\hile th · line seldom
failed to open a hole. The • 'o rth , iders had a hard time
stopping our heaYy ha ks and their goal was in constant danger.
The following aturday, Ea.t defratL·d \\'e;;t by a score of

,\ncl now came the game with , outh. \\'ith a fast, progressi\'e team and a tower of . trength in Tuttle, , outh went into

t least
twice East wa. within triking distance of, outh'., goal, and once
missed a field goal hy only a few feet. , outh depended mo. tl~
upon forward pa. se and upon . ending Tuttle around end, but,
strange to . ay, Tuttle\ wonderful ( ?) end run . failed to
mat rialize. For w eks and week. before the gam we had heard
that battle cry from everyone, " top Tuttle," and, thank to

)lr. Ke;;ter and Capt. Baird, our two end , Post and Fairchild.
were on the job. Constantly Ea. t'. line ;;mashed through and
all our fdlow. were in the play before outh had a hance to
get . tarted. Cunningham, chreiber, 'ostello and Baird in the
backtield worked as nen~ r bdore and the line,

In the la~t few minutes of play outh\ line \\·eakened for an

from Xorth decided that a touchdown had not been made,
"Co~ty" took it O\'er. The ball was knocked out of hi. hands
after Referee teele had blown hi: whi tle, but a touchdown wa.
allowed. ".'rhreib" kicked goal, makin~ the :-;core 7 to 0.
[n spite of all the horrible rumors we had heard about what
::\Ianual would do to us Thanksgiving, the fellow all took heart
and walked awa\' with a "core of 20 to 0. This clo~ed the
;;cason, and Ea~t had not been s o:-ed on by a sin~le high-~chool

in breakfast caps and tea-aprons (that'. what one of the girl,said they were) presented a foot-hall game as football will be

Aft r , veral well-played practice game~, th ~eric· , tartcd. In the fir-.;t game,
the outh ider , were easilv defeated bv our team. Th ba. ket shooting of
Jordan, a new player, was tl{c feature of this game. In the next game, with our
old-time rival l\Ianual, the first half end •d with the s or• 15 to 3 in their fayor.
In the ,econd half, however, our team showed it. ability to "come back." \ \"e
work d a su ce ·ful ,hift in which Ilillik r and Ladd did brilliant guarding,
and the forward equally good . hooting, and m, de the score a tie. But through
a lu ky basket by the oppo:ing sid' at th last minute of play, our team met
d feat. The third game of the series, with \\'est , ide, was start d poorly h) our
econd team, but wa end d well hv our fir. t team.

home floor, the out-come wa: considered doubtful. \\"hen the fir t half ended in

by the x ellent work of our little forward, "Bud" Kershn r, we su ce ded in
winning the game, thus making the championship a tie hetm~e n • Torth and East.
The hampionship up is to be held one-half year by • orth and the other

in the . ' inth and Tenth Grade ~Ieet, making record;; which compare very well
with tho~e of the Big :.\lect. ~lulvahill and Holland were the star for Ea. t,

competed in three dual meeb; winning from . . Torth and \\'e:-;t, and losing only
to DenYer Cniversitv.
The day of the- city track meet, a larg rowd assembled and witnes. d a

Perry in the hurdles, which i~ about the hardest rae , took fourth place.
:\1. Blake put the :-hot far enough to win another point for our chool.

threw the di~cus with skill, making third pia e and adding two more points
to our score. East, at this point, seemed far behind the rest of the hools, but
.he meet was only ju . t begun as far a East was concerned, and thing now took
a d ·cided jump in favor of th • red and white.
In the HO-yard dash James Holland (Gabby for ·hort), taking the lead
from Kranich of ~Ianual, the winner of la~t year' race, kept it and ro ed
the tape first. Close behind Kranich am Howry and J ennes .
Following the -1--lO ame the mile run. ,\11 th East runners, Brown,

\\'bile Ea~t wa , ,,·inning laurels on the tra k ostello easily took the high

place in the pole vault.
The prettiest event of the day \\·a. the
0 yard run. ~Ierritt and Howry
took the lead , and kept it from ~tart to finish. ~Ierritt broke the record, winning
the race in 2:05. These two runners showed that they worked tog thcr , for
they were not beaten in any race during the sea.on.

HE hamlet of Tech i~ situated lone omely in the hills. To
reach it you must drive for mile through desolate ,crubland over the poore:,t roads imaginable. At last you get
deep into the backhill country, and then a the road sweep
over and down a bare hillside you di.-cover, half hidden in the
folia .ge of the ,·alley, a fe\\ -;cattered farm hou'-'es.
.\fter pa:;-;ing these hou:es the road lead. upward again.
It toils along over boulders and broken rock only to end abruptly
and une\.pe tedly in a muddy barnyard and in front of a man
sitting on the fence ''ohittling. That i. Buck.
Ask any of the villagers about Buck and they will all gi,·e
you the same answer. The village had gone to sleep one night
and had awakened the ne\.t morning to find Buck sitting on the
fence whittling on a tilk. Buck \rith hi small weather-beaten
face, his eye., gray with a yellowish tinge, looking out through
narrow ~lib. Buck with hi . long arms and scrawny hands.
\\' here had he ome from? ~o one knew. \\'hy had he come?
_• o one knew. A few of the old crones of the village had
attempted to que tion him, but they had been unabl to di..;cover
a thing. They did know that every day Buck sat on the fence
and whittled on a stick, whi h never eemed to grow .maHer,
with a knife that newr seemed to be om dull. They did know
that Buck " ·a a mystery too deep for them to solo:e.
A. I jumped out of the wagon in which I had come O\W
from the railroad I . aw Buck for the first time. I .tepped up
to him and said: "Go d-day, Jr.

T

lie rai:- ·d his head a1 : looked at me through the . lit of hi.
eyes, "Howdy, stranger."
"You're right," I said, "I am a. tranger."
". ·ot very often \\·e .ee :trangers round these yere part:.''
"I uppose not," I said, "but I'm here to do a little painting.
.\rti. ts \\ill come to the remote-;t pia es to find .ubject.."
"\\'ell, that's cur·u~. It. trikes me 'sif they ain't nothin' to
paint round yere 'ceptin' a few house. and a lot of mud .. ,
He ~aid this so :eriou:ly that I was forced to laugh. I wa
becoming interested in this man who showed ·uch an obviou
lack of civic pride.
"Could you direct me to a place where I can get board and
lodging?'' I asked.
A-; if he were . uddenly sorry he had :poken to me, he
gruffly ~aid, ". ·o,'' and be~an to \\'hittle again. • ·at another
word could I ~et out of him.
eYeral day!" pas:-;ed. E,·e ry day Buck wa~ on the fence
1\'hittling. All attempts I made to get into conversation with him
failed. I made inquiries about him of the woman who kept
the half , qualid, half picture. que house \\'here I had found lodging.
he knew nothing more than that she thought "Buck wa
je~' a leetle off hi . center. '
I made . eYeral ,.ketche,; of the -;urrounding country.
ne I
made of him. I prize that cam·a-; more highly than any I have
e,·er made. If you care to drop into my studio you may .ee it.

Bu~icd "ith my painting I proceeded to forget all about the
incident. I did not :-cc Buck during all thi~ time as I usually

I returned one eYcning to find that my landlady had taken

" ood cYening, Doctor.''
"I gues~ you'll haYc to ]caw here."
" \\"hy, what's the matter?"
"Your landlady is down with the typhoid."
"Oh !"I ~aid," i~ it catching?''
" \\'ell, not exactly, hut ;;till I wouldn't a&lt;h· i~c you to ~lay
here.''
''I can't lcaYe my work,'' I ~aid . "How bad is this typhoid
bu-.;ines. ?''
''Four ca"c. so far. \ ll malignant. One died this mornin~." he explained l&gt;riell).
"I hadn't heard."
The doctor leaned toward me.
" I t's rather scriou-.; hu~ines~, and it'. complicated hy a craz ·
that ;.ccm: to haYc gotten in thc'c people's head~. It\ all owr
town. I suppo~c you'yc heard about it?"
".To," I said becoming intcre~ted.
"I don't know ho" to explain it to you," the dodor went
on. ''The talk is about ~ome fool thing that haunts the ;;tream
by the bridge OYer there.
C\ eral daim to haYe :-;c •n it, or rather
they don't ~ee it, they feel it. They say it heat them about the

eye:;, hi~ ~ray ~hirt open at the gnarled neck. Bm k a· I later
came to know him- the un~elfish, the broken hearted Buck.
~ -ot long afterward, di~couragcd by an exec~~ of h •a\')' rain:-;,
I packed up my belongings preparatory to lcaYing Tech.
• ·o ;;ooner done than the ~un came out and I a~ quickly
ch.mgcd my mind. Thu~ it '' ~b b; the mere chan e of a change
in the w •ather that I stayed and become inYoh·cd in th · tragedy
that bdell that drow~y i,o]atcd littl • Yillage.
It wa' the carl) ewnin~ of a dull, dark, soundle~. day.

left the road cro~sed a ~mall bridge of plank:. .\ ~trcam wa
:;can ely Yi"il1le between mud hanks OYcrgrown "ith dank weeds

As I ~at there smoking I noticed that Buck had gotten off
the rail and wa;. walking down the road toward me.

reel. He began to duck hi~ head and throw up hi . hand!:i as if
wardin~ off inYi--ihlc hlo""· Finally he ·ta!.(gcred wildly off,
muttcrin~ to him,clf.
~fon·d by wriosity I ~otto my feet and walked up the road
to look for the cause of this :-;udden and rather unnatural exhibition of shadow boxing. I found nothing and I rcmemb •r that
at the time I attributed the scene to Buck's being "jc 'a lcetle off

terror."
"\\'hy I saw Buck"- I began.
"Yes, he's got typhoid, but he's nearly well. He had a
wry light case. Yes '' he went on after a slight pause, "that'.
the funny thing about it; without exception, tho~e who !aim they
have actually :-een it are either dead, or ill of typhoid. "\\'ell," he
added as he ro~e to go, "whatever the infernal thing is, it\ doing
nobody any good."
A few weeks passed. Buck was again well enough to be at
his usual place on the rail.
ince his ~ickne.&lt; he had opened
up and :poken to me '-'e\'eral time!'&gt;. He told me exactly what
the doctor had about the "fool notion."
"Yes,'' he said, ''It'" all true 'nuf. I cal'clate 'e~ an eddicated

Doc-.'' He sudden!} stopped and looked toward the bridge.
The doctor had been walking toward us. As he reached the
bridge he stopped, staggered. "It's got me," we heard him
murmur. He reached into his medicine bag, took out a sma11
vial, put it to hi~ lips and . ank forward on his knees dead.
He did this o slowly and quietly, he looked a. if he \\'ere treating himself for some slight pain. \rorn out by the struggle
against a di-.;ease and a craze, actuall y con fronted by a thing,
that as a man of science he had thought "as superstition, he had
taken his own life.

'ursing :-oftly under hi lm·ath, Buck walked over to where
the body lay. I followed. He gazed at it long and ..,teadily.
Finall~· he rai:-ed his eye. and . aid in a &lt;lui,·ering, shaking
voice:
'':\lr. Lewis, I know what this thing i~. It ha-. entered my

A . hiver seemed to ru .1 through his body, his eyes glowed,
his hand quivered, he pitched forward f-om his chair dead .
At la. t Buck had found re:;t gon to his loved ones; gone to
that place where all are. and woes arc forgotten.
It wa several month before Tech re overed from the
epidemic. At the earliest Oj&gt;portunity I left the . tricken hamlet.

the enate of last year. The body now number· about
thirty-five young men who aspire to efficiency in public
. peaking. The nature of the society i such that it members
are obliaed to become familiar with all phase&lt;.; of public question::;.
The debate are on live que tion -, political and --ocial, and arc
di cu eel in an intere ting way by the various speakers. Two
Friday even ina of each month arc set asid · for "open" meetings.
1 ecial feature arc added on the ·c o casion. to the usual debate,
u h a an especially prepared addrcs. by the President or some
other member.
Pre ident \\'hitenack, a member of the faculty, has been at
the helm of the Forum'- fortune for two years. ·nder hi careful guidance the society has developed gr~atl). He is a . peaker
of exceptional ability, and is ever ready to help the boys with
his own exten ive knowledge.
The meeting are begun at eight o'clock. After a lu~ty call
rder" and loud pounding of "Hi" Excellency's" gavel, a
to
. ober-faced clerk call the roll and reads the minute-. of the
previou meeting. Thi is followed by the reading of the bill
for the eYening, and war i. at once declared. The d bate
captain open the di . cu. sion, and are followed by the various

T

'cnators (this being the official title), who .peak in the order
in which their name:; appear on the rollcall.
In thi · battle-royal appear many and \'aried contc ·tan b .
There are veterans of many battle and raw recruit!;; the
former i~sue loud defiance · and the latter arc afraid le~t their
arguments be :-ubje ted to sudden bombardment by the old
timer . The din of confli t dies away, and ho~tilitie · are ·u pended to take the vote. The result i. received with loud applau~e hy the victoriou faction. Then a truce is de lar 'ci until
the next meetin" and the members make ready to lea\'e. In this
way the Forum attain. it four-fold purpo. e- a knowledge of
parliamentary proceeding, good-fellowship power to deliver
convincing .peeches, and a general idea of publi question .
Both la!'t year and the present year the Forum has b en
repre::;cnted in the Woodbury and tevens ontests. Three out
of the four who took part in the tevens onte. t were Forum
boys and the one chosen to represent the school was a Forum boy.

l~pgmalion ann ®alatea

L to engender in the mind::. of certain unfortunate
people a feeling of discontent, but tho~e who failed to
attend the pla) of Pygmalion and Galatea of a truth,
\erily, mil:i~ d a real theatri ·al treat. At no time was there any
danger of ..:uffering from ennui, whatever that is.
For about two hour a large audience of well-pleased people
\\ere taken for a trip down deep into the very heart of chivalrou ·
and romantic Greece, back to those days \vhen the sword wa
mightier than the pen, and the laurel wreath wa a symbol of
::.trength and courage.
•\ t times we were made to quiv r with laughter, the very
:;eats themselves seeming fairly to ooze with glee. Even the light '
went out from shame at their participation in frivolity, and then
of a udd n we were whil:iked to the Isle of arrows.
o it wa ,
we wer abl' to sympathize with and enjoy the experience of a
noted culptor, Pygmalion. He wa. born and bred an 1 -karat
ir Launcelot, and being blessed with a wonderful imagination
immediately pro ceded to worship the idol, made in the image of
hi ' beloved spou!;e. Dame Fortune .hone down upon that
occasion and came to his re. ue by gi,·ing life to the . tatue,
Galatea. The fact that thi::. . ame . tatue later on obligingly left a
large dab of powder on 'hry. o ·boulder, pro\·ed beyond a doubt
that :;he wa · not only a live girl, but a very modern one in the
bargain.
We would never have recognized Edward Hart a Pygmalion
had not that 'give away" dimple, which no amount of paint
could hide, come into view. Love making connected with
Edward wa. not a familiar characteri .tic either, but we afterward. found out that hi . . u cess in this line, without even looking mi erable, wa due to hi. untiring practice and per_everance.
Katherine Kni. ell portrayed
ynisca very well.
Of

ourse we can't blame her for getting angry at her husband for
makinrr love to another \roman, but \\e think she was ju ·t a
teeny Lit hard on him.
\\'e advise l\larian Dudley, who took the part of ~Iyrina ,
to get a patent on her invention for manufacturing tears on short
notice.
aid patent might be u cful in a history or Latin class
when teacher is unu:-;ualh hard- hearted.
Congratulations ar~ clue Hal Booth for his sure aim Ill
hitting that doc. There mu t have been . ome queer animal. m
Greece during tho e days .
As we watched Isabell' Redmond \H' realized we were
gazing at no amateur. But though she made a de idcdly henpecked, abused hu band out of Leonard, still don't we know
that this same young lady delayed rehear!-&gt;al one afternoon just
to sew button on hi · coat?
Leonard Loan, as Chry:-os, was the greatest surprise of all.
In vain we looked for the habitual beery smile of our senior, but
it was no u. c. The . ofa-pillow addition and )ellow wig were
too much. Finally we ga,·e up trying to identify the figure
bcfor • us with Leonard, and content'&lt;! ourselves with listening to
ome system
the way in which he made hi:; peace with Daphne.
he had, too.
Leo Barker, a-. Age. imos, and Bertram Aane~. as ::\limo-..
onvin eel u. that domestics arc the . ame th • world over. Of
cour. e, we didn't approve of their hurling their toob at each
other, but then maybe . u h things were allowable in those days.
Taking it all in all, th play was one of th e best . taged,
hest a ted and be. t manag'd that ha · ever been given at Ea. t
Dem·cr, and the enior la of 1C) 14 may well be proud of
it elf.

�HE curtain was.· drawn lowly ha k by invi. ihle hand . to
reveal u. treet "cene in Bath. "Well, well," cried a jovial
voice, as a jolly little man rolled up to a proud, ari trocratic-looking fellow 1n :,;carlet livery, "if it i~n't my old friend
Fag. " Fag drew ba k rather offended by the coachman· coarse
manners, but none the le. s he . topped to chat a while. They
talked of London fa~hions in wigs and the like, and of 1Ii.
Lydia Languish and of Captain Anthony Absolute, who had
ju~t come to Bath.
•\nd as they talked we recognized in the
coachman\ gruff tones .·ome resemblan e to Tom Ferri}' voice,
and we knew all the time that the haught) individual could be
none other than 'tanlcy prague.
\\'e were next introduced to ~liss Lydia Langui h, whose
name i: th most fitting des ription I could give of her. Poor
Lydia wa: very melan holy, and with good au e, for had he
not quarrelled with Beverly, her own true love? She wa
roused from these ~ad thought· by the entrance of her pert little
maid Lu y. "0 lud, ma'am," .aid Lu y in a high na al voice
which did not sound like June's, "I had a dreadful time gettina
the. e hooks, ma'am, but here they are, ma'am," and he proceeded to take from under her cloak book. whose title horrified
us. But for the time being Lydia could not read them , for her
aunt, ~Ir~. ~lalaprop, . he of the mi u~ed, mispronounced, badly
con~tru ted words, came sailin~ in.

thrl'e perfeltly innocent and ::;table lookin~r worm. will
:-o completely alter their habits of existence a to leaYc
the ~pertator in ga.ping astoni.hment. If you don't believe me,
you didn't attend the ~linerva- Forum play, and therefore arc
not worthy to be convinced.
In the words of the daring Engli~h pupil who bold!) a scrtcd
that ~lilton couldn't be improved upon, 1 challenge anyone to
deny that the play given by th • follower. of ~linen·a and the
devotee:. of the Forum :-;o out Shake.~pcared hake:-;peare in re:-pect to literary merit, so out-~lantclled ~lantell in re:-pect to
hi-,trionic ability, and ;.o out-Gabied Gaby in rc.pec t to ticket
receipb a&gt;' to make Peter ~Ic 'ourt feel like ~lanual after the
'1 hank:gi,·in" Game.
The play was not without its instru tive side; one moral in
particular was brought home to the hearts of the audience, to
wit, a man may cruelly maltreat hi· gentle wife, threaten hi
daughter, reduce them both to tears, in fact, terrorize the whole
hou::;ehold by the \\'aspi;.hne::;s of his temper but let him be the
innocent cause of the ruin of his meek :pouse' bonnet and"Oh, wasp, where is thy sting. Oh, man, where i. · thy tyranny!''
In other \YOrd:-, \Yhat is to be ompared with milady\ wrath
when mere man trifle with her finery?
The member. of the cast were excellently hosen; if you
don't beliew me, ask them. \\'hen the jealous curtain, after a
little per ua~ion. was rent as~under, we beheld ur tand By,
"::;he" of the astonishing talent , Our Original of riainal ·yprienna Turcotte. \\'c cannot ay that the role was peculiarly

. uited to her, for she could interpret any role that was ever
written; doubtles · if Bela co a. ked her to star in "The Bird of
Paradise,' ' . he would murmur "I should worry," and make a
:-;ucces. of it. thlrry ~IcC'ambridge , as the butler, wa unapproachable, and who wa there that beheld his dignified and
'aughty bearing that did not think of ~lerry Hen gland?
Our gentle, soft-voiced Henry Cooper took away our breath
by his startling portrayal of husbandly devotion, and we were
duly impre:-. ed by hi· dramatic clutching of the air, not for the
worn-out dagger, but because too much of a good thing hindered
him from clutching anythine; else.
Zilpha arruth r , a the meek, tearful wife, \\"&lt;L a great
succes:. In fact, he ::;heel . o many salty quarb that the platform
wa.· about a. wet a at the time of ~Iinen·a ';; initiation of new

It i;; '' ith the grcatc:-;t of delicacy that I approach the youthful cau~e of all the trouble, or shall I . ay the caw;e of all youthful trouble, in brief, the 10\·c r.. The parts were beautifully taken
by atherine Yan Dcusen and • • oyl Gibbs, anti though • • oyl
didn't . igh like a furnace (for which we were wry thankful bccau"e the auditorium wa. warm) he wa;; in C\'ery other way mo;;t

The whole play was well gi\'en, and in some part-. extremely
touching, e pe ially in the end where ~Iincn·a ~o forget her:-elf a.

I fear, moons would wax and wane before the talc would be
completed. True, I naturally have a peculiar intere. t in the

In the chool, a: I knew it, there were many graduates who have

things arc forgotten. The literary work was good, and the
debating wa famous. Athletic did not take the hold of today.
There was a stern devotion to study, and the graduate , wherc,·er met, usually . ay that it paid.
~lay I write a paragraph on debating? I remember the
energy given to debate by a large number of able young m n,

one of them our present Governor and he O\\es much to the
mental power he gained from the practice. In these days of
shifting empha. i on ·ubjects in education, the old Lyceum i~
negle ted, and I wonder if not at a lo;;s. Power to arrantJ;c idea~
and express them clearly, forcibly and contidcntly i. of high
value for training, for many kinds of lmsines., for sharing
publicly in the dutie · of citizen. hip. The re:-earch necessary in
preparing a debate i a mo. t valuable kind of the:-;i~ work, and
it give· ori rinal power. The revival in the colleges of debating
under competent instruction i, encouraging and may be a di;;tinct
advance beyond the older and more oratorical method. But
thi · instru~tion ha. an important place abo in the high
