It is hard ly necessary to explain to anyone who the handsome and illu strious-looking body on the left side of the page a re, but for the benefit of th ose w ho perhaps are not Yery well acquainted with us vve sha ll be g lad to g ive the needed inform ation. \Ve are the c lass of 1919 ! Vl/e arc always modest in thinking of ou r life's pr ospects, but humble though we may be, we cannot help but know t h at we will give th e world at least a litt le jolt when we all make our debut in the H all of Fame. They speak of rising to heights of glo,-y. For 1919 that will be a task of no g reat difficulty fo r w it h so many you ng giants in our n umber we could r each as far as Ma rs if necessa,-y. A substantial fo undation also could be readi ly su pplied. T herefore, Sir \i\To rl d, we arc at last ready to fill that pos ition you ha\·e kept vacant for us and we assure you that we shall perform our duty creditably.

CLEO DID IT 'LL have to go-and miss th e dance!" mourned Nelle Skene to a number of sympathizing friends around her.

"But you can't-its the Class Dance", objected her churn , Marian O liver.

"Th e: Class Dance!" echoed th e other members of the group.

"Of course", lamented Nelle; "don' t you suppose 1 know its the Class Dance?

That makes it all the worse. But you can sec for yoursel f how it is" .

And then she added in a tone of hopleless finality, " I must go". " R ead it again . \V hat did s he say?" asked one of the boys, and Nel le, obeying him, slow ly d rew forth a letter from her pocket and read :

I' I

"'Dear D aughter:' (that's mother you know) 'Dear Daughter: vVi lliam' (that's U ncle Bill, you know) 'Dear Daughter: vVill-'" " For pity sakes !" cried one of the g irl s in exasperation. "A re you ever going to get beyond 'Dear Daughter?'" "'\Villiam has asked a number of his college friends out'", proceeded Nelle mi ldly " 'the ve ry same night that your fat her an<l 1 had planned to ent ertain th e Country Club, so I fear I shall have need of you r salad forks. l 'm sure, dear Nel le-'"

"That's you, you know", interrupted one of the boys, michievously. "'I'm s ure, dear Nelle'", continued Nelle, "'will not mind riding out w ith th em. She will have to stay over ni g ht, of course, but \ i\Tilliam will show her a good time. I shall expect her on the 4 :30 t rain. Very affectionately, You r Moth er' "

Afte r this reading a heavy s ilence fel l upon th e group and they looked as disma l as could be expected when a class favorite was to be absent from a class affair.

Suddenly Ray \Villiams, who was noted for his optim is m and also for hi s preference for Nelle to any other girl, placed his forefi nger at his forehead and a look of inspiration spread over his countenance.

T he group looked hopeful; Ray's posture was fam iliar to them, and t hey kn ew it usuall y meant something interesting or some way out of a difficulty.

"Friend s and country men" , said Ray, slowly and decis ively , "I know ho w to solve this problem. Why not let Cleo do it?"

"Cleo !" they exc laim ed in a chorus.

"Never!"

"The very idea!"

"Can you imagine anythi ng so ridi culous?" "\ Vait !" interru pted Ray, authoritative-

MAROON AND ly. "Of course she can do it. She can dress in Nelle's clothes-" "Cleo in Nelle's clothes! Mercy!" cried l\.'[aria n. "Never wo ul d I wear clothes afte r a negro had ·worn them".

"Perhaps not", agreed J{a y, "but you are not Nelle, and an yhow Cleo is above th e common- " he paused in search of a su itable wo rd "- type of negro. If she was not black- " "She'd be w hite or some other color, I presume", fi nished Marian scornfully.

"Go on, Ra y", said Nelle, " I'd do almost anything to go to the dance". "\"11,1 e would get he1· ticket, of course, dress her in Nelle's clothes, put a thi ck veil over her hea{l, give her the salad fork s, and the necessary directions, and-presto -all is complete".

"But the salad forks", objected Ne lle, "neith er g randm other nor mother would t hink of trusting that centuries-old silver to anyone but o ne of th e fam ily. Grandmother d istrusts absolutely everyone".

"She need never know that it was 'n ot y ou. Cleo ·won't mind coming back on the t rolley after she de livers the forks, whereas you wou ld never be allowed to come back alone at so late an hour. Your grandmother w ill think that you ha,·e decid ed to spend the night with one of your friends in the city instead of w ith he1·, and she w ill never suspect".

The ejaculat ions of the group n ow cha nged from derisio n to comm·endation and they all ag1·eed it was an excellent p lan. They ta lked fo r a littl e lo nge r, during which time Nelle's fears a nd objections were overruled and th e plan ·w as perfected.

Then Cleo had to be interviewed . This N elle a nd Ray ag 1·eed to do. Cleo was detained in the assembly hall after school " ·as dismissed, and, after an hour's ses-

s1on, the three emerged, Nel l a nd Ray, ti1·ed and triumphant, and Cleo, perplexed but determined to "do or d ie", and with her mind a jumble of admonitions; such as, "Don't let go of the salad fo rks one instant!" " D on't lift your vei l on any account!" "Don't miss the trolley !" and so forth.

To tell th e truth, Cleo was not much in favor of the plan, but Nelle had always treated Cleo more as an equal than had any o ther one of her school friends. I t was s he ·w ho first stopped the teasing about Cleo's name-Cleohatr a Brnwn .

Huw could Cleo help it if Deacon Jones made all hi s p's like h's, and that th e Reverend ]\!fr. John son, never ha ving heard of Cleopatra, had b aptized her Cleohatra instead? R emembering these things, Cleo resolved anew to help N elle by del iver ing the sal ad fo rks safely at their destination.

As the trio r eached th e sch ool grounds the good news spread abrnad, and wi th one accor d the young people shouted : "'Ray for Cleohatra Brow n!'"

The fol lowing Afternoon Nelle, R ay, and Cleo s tarted fo r the station in plen ty of time for the 4 :30 t ra in . ] t was only a twenty-minute ride from their town to th e city and Cleo had he1· t icket and was so well attired th at no one, un less h er veil were to be lifted, could have supposed that it was other than Nelle Skene herself.

"It's going to rain", observed Ray .

"Just look at t hat black cloud".

And even as he s poke a couple of rain drops touc hed th em .

"You mu st have my 1·aincoat, Cleo", said Nelle . "We'll go back for i t; and if we hurry, we can stil l make th e train".

They hurried back, changed coa ls, a nd rush ed out to the station. T hey w ere a few minutes early so they bade Cleo a

fond farewell, and left her w ith the final warning "not to lose grandmother's salad forks".

Cleo paced back and forth a couple of times a nd, as the train puffed in, put her hand in the pocket for her ticke t so she would haYc it ready. She reached down once, and then another time, shifted her salad forks to the other arm, and reached in the other pocket in horrified haste.

Then she remembered she hac-1 left it in the pocket of the other coat.

Cleo was not the girl to hesitate, hmvever, so she quickly took the money that had been given her to pay for her ride back on the trolley, and rushed in the station to get another ti cket. This she procured, just as she heard th e conductor outside call "All aboard". " Run, run!" shouted th e ticke t sel ler, and Cleo did not hesitate. Just as the train was moving slowly, s he reached it and would have cl imbed aboard had she not s uddenl y missed her sa lad forks.

" Lawsy. Grandmother's salad forks!" she exclaimed, much to the amazement of the conductor who ·was helping her aboard, and s he fled back to the station again. There on the ledge of the ticket seller's w indow was the box containing the preciou s salad forks. Snatching that up, s he ran out again, but the train had disappeared around a bend .

"Missed the train-the o nly train-a nd grand mother's salad forks simply h ad to be at their c-fcstination by nine o'clock that evening". Thus ran her thoughts as sh e stood ther e a couple of minutes, a picture of despair.

Her melancholy reHections were interrupted by a commotion behind her, and turning, she beheld a portly old gentleman gesticulati ng wildly in the direction of the departed train and talking in no

ge ntle ter m s to her brother, Mose, who was a station porter.

"Get a race1:, I say, get a racer!" the old man commanded. "l must go to the city. \Vhy do you stand there like a-a-?" · Cleo did not hear the rest. She was beginning to have hope. If s he cou ld indu ce the old man to take her with himthen she heard 1\11 osc answer: "In five minutes' time, sah, the cah'Jl be waitin' for yuh at de odder side of the depot, sah", and lVIose hastened a"vay.

Cleo hurried afte r him without attracting th e attention of the olcl man who was stil l rag ing.

"Mose!" she called and raised her ,·eil.

Mose turned and stared. "Cleo!" he managed to gasp.

"You must help me, Mose", said Cleo, and hastily outlined her difficulties and the on ly possible solution.

"But he won't take yuh", said :Mose.

"Don' yu h know? He's <lat big manufacturin ' man, :tvlistah Caldwell. Ile' ll not take no niggah ga l wicl him".

"Then I'll go w itho ut him kn owin' it" declared Cleo. 'Tse jes' gotta, Mose.

Think of them grand mother sa lad forks".

During periods of excitement Cleo paid more heed to meaning than grammar.

Mose scratched his curly head and said nothing. Cleo did not stand idle. " I s that the racer?" s he asked pointing to a long, low car standing a short distance away, the driver asleep in his scat.

"Yep", said Mose, without showing any inclination to move.

Cleo s tea lth ily approached the ca r and climbed up on the back pai-t without making any noise. S he beckoned to Mose and he sidled up to her in a terrified manner, fo llowing h er whispered di rections, he adjus ted the top so that it partially covered her and then fixed the robe about

MAROON AND her in such a way that she looked like a large bundle. Mose had hardly tucked in the last corner of the robe b efo re the oid man made his appea rance and, taking out his w atch for th e hundredth time, angrily demanded if he could soon start for the city . lVIose gave one nervous look at the seem ing ly inert bundle on the r ea1- of th e ca1-, then he awoke the sleeping chauffeur, the pompous old gentleman took hi s seat, and off they went.

It was a que er rid e. The chauffeur was still too slee p y to pick out the smooth portions of the road, the old man muttered to himself continuousl y, and Cleo gasping fo r brea t h, clutching the top w ith one hand to kee p herself from sliding off and with th e other tightly grasping the precious salad forks, did not obta in much enjoyment from the situation. On th ey went, th e mad, seeming to Cleo, to get rou g her and ro ugh er. A number of miles were traversed in this mann er before Cleo's rob e showed an y sig·ns of parting· compan y with Cleo. In vain did she att em pt to hold it at the imminent risk of rolling off, and at last th e w hole thing detach ed itself and s ailed off into s pace, and . wi th it- horror of horro rs-,vent Cleo's hat and veil! Concealm ent was no longer possible. At every bump s he was lurc hed a trifle nea1-e r the edge, un til at her w it's en cl, the ex tremity of her misery, C leo los t all patience ancl s ho uted : "Bloody quick!"

Th e po1-tly old gentlelll a n s ta rt ed u p in amazem ent, and, beholdin g a teITor-stricken black face so close to his own, seem ed on the point o f quitting t he ca r imlll ediately. The chauffeur also seemed undecid ed whether to swerve into t he fen ce at th e side of th e road 01- to make the car go all the faster in the hop e of fleeing from thi s s trange phenomenon. Suddenl y Mr. Cald-

·w ell found himself holding a box with this peremptory comma nd : "Hold 'cm, s ah-I ca n't an o ther m111u le; I'se coming over- stop there, you ( this to the chauffeur )- I'se comin' ovah".

This las t information seemed to be recciYcd with som e alarm from both men, but the chauffeur s topped the car an <l Cleo proceeded "over the top" in a manner somewhat more gymnastical than dignified.

A couple o f s econds more and Cleo found herself between the Honorable Mr. Caldwell and the chauffeur, both evident·· ly trying to pus h out t he opposite s ides of the car. " I will take grandrnolhe1-'s salad forks now", said Cleo sweetly, an d relieved the old man o f t he box vv hich he had been clasping very gingerl y . Th en, addressing th e chauffeur as haugh ti ly as th ough she were Ne lle Skene herself, she sa id: "You may start now. I a m ready".

The chauffeur saw nothing better to do so he obeyed her in st ruction s an d on t hey we nt.

Cleo turn ed to Mr. Caldwell, "Don't be fri g htened, sir", s he smiled affably and spoke in her best manner. "You are in no mo r e hurry to get to th e cit y than I am . I mi ssed the train, s o I was forced to impose upo n you1- hospi tal ity" .

"So?" l\fr. Calcl well seem ed interested, "And w hat ma y be your par ticular rus h ?"

A gl eam of s ly humor cr ept in to her la rge, black eyes as sh e h a ug htil y lifted her head and sa id: " J am going to Madam S kene's re cep tion".

T he pompous one w as du ly impressed: "\iVhat a coincidence", he said. "That is also my destination. A waitress, I p res um e?"

And thus it was tha t Cleo b ega n an explanation and soon Mr. Caldwell was ac-

quaintcd with all the particulars regarding "gr an<lmother's salad forks". Since Nelle's hat and veil had been blown away it was i111possible fo r Cleo to follow t he original plan and impersonate Nelle.

Cleo did not know what to do and in tryto h elp her out of h er difficulties, the o ld man forgot his own troubles and soon they were bus ily making a plan for future move ments. By the time they arrived at their destination the plan was complete and both were en tirel y happy. As 1\fr.

Caldvvell stepped from th e car C\eo gave him the box of forks and enjoined him to be excee<lingly careful of them . This he readily agreed to do and th en ordered the chauffeur to take Miss Cleo back to her home.

A short time later Cleo entered the ball room in her own home tow n and was imm ediatel y t he cen ter of an excited audience. A dozen questions were asked at once, but through it all Cleo retained her

seren e de111 eanor and replied to only that of Nelle.

"Did you do it, Cleo ?" asked Nelle anxiously.

"Yes", said Cleo innocently, "I did it" .

And that was all she told of the affa ir.

Some time later when Grandmother S kene was visi ting M rs. Skene she remarked upon the success of th e reception and said: "Thank Nelle for th e troubk with the salad fo rks. Mr. Ca ldwell, my m ost di stingui shed guest, said they were sent with him-by the by, my clear, Mr. Caldwell made th e most amazing s tatement that night".

"Really", exclaimed Mrs. Skene, eager for a b it of gossip. "What was it?"

"1-:l e said", continued Mrs. Skene, Sr., in her most impressive s tyle, " he said that he had taken a particular fancy to a little n egro gi r l- ncgro, mind 路you-named Clcohatr a-th in k of it Cleohatra- and he is going to send her to college!"

, ELL, Mom sie, I' ve dont it" .

"Done what, Babs?" asked Momsie, as she bu sily knitted at her socks. "You surely didn't run into the ga r age door aga in with Dad<ly's new roadste r ?"

"O h, no!" replied Barbara, as she seated herself in the arm chair opposite her mother and gave a s igh of relief. "I've en listed. I'm going路 to b e a farmcrctte this summer and de velop a coat of t an and some mu scle, so that when lwother Bob com es hom e from 17rance he can't say that I didn't do my part. I'm tired of afternoon teas, r eceptions an d danc路es, and those w i11 cons ti tu te most of the sum-

mer's program. Geral<linc Martin and I decided that vve would do something worth while this summer, an<l Gerdy ha s an uncle who owns a large tru ck farm in 1\ifaryland., and he said that we could come there. He had two sons, but both arc in France now, and he reall y needs hel p, so we're going"

"But, Barbara, you have never don e any ]1ard work an<l y ou couldn't endure farm toil", replied Mrs. H arcling.

"Mother, can't I get use<l to it ? Other girls do, and so can I", Babs definitely r esponded. "\Ne will see w hat Daddy says about

MAROON AND it. Run along and get ready for dinner now".

At five o'clock Barbara entered the living rnom where her father and mother were engaged in a deep conversation".

"He! lo, 1i ttle farmerette", called out Daddy, as Babs entered the room.

"Oh, Daddy, you will allow me to go, wo n't you? I'm strong and healthy, so why couldn't I work on a farm?"

"Tell me more about youi- plans, Girlie, and then -we'll decide", said Daddy, as Babs perched herself on the arm of Mr. Harding's chair. \,Vhen the dinner bell sounded Barbara had succeeded in winning her father over to her way of thinking.

Mr. Harding believed that girls were meant fo r nature and that they should be butterflies flitting about in the fields and meadows and not always flitting ab out th e reception room s and dance halls. He 1-calizcd that truck farming und er the supervision of Gerdy's uncle would not harm his daughter, and it would at the same time be a good experience for h er. H e was proud to think that s he was willing to give up her s ummer pleasures and r espond to w hat s he felt was her duty. If only more of h er friends would respond in the same way, Mr. H a1-ding felt that the cosmetic dealers would have fewer customers when Nature could use her painter hand .

Two weeks later Babs and Cerdy were s itting on the porch steps of their nev,, abode.

"Babs", b egan Gcrdy, "This is the night of Mable North's big dance at ho me, isn't it ? Don't you wish we could be there?"

"No, I do n't", replied Babs somew hat peevishly. "I would just as soon sit here on the steps and listen to the ripplin g of the little brook and -w atch the moonbeams dance over the water. J think

we're mighty lucky to ha ve this experience of farm life, and I wouldn't doubt but that the majority of our cro,vd envy us".

"Perhaps they do'.'. Oh yes, U ncle said we could invite the crowd down for a week-end sometime. They could make the trip in automobiles and have a joyful time".

"Let's not invite them until we know a little more about trucking. I want to be able to tell the different kinds of vegetables apart and show them that we really arc good farmerettes . Today your uncle told m e to pick th e peas and when I got out to the garden I wasn't sure which were the peas and which were the beans. So I broke open th e little case".

"You mean pod", interrupted Gcrdy.

"Oh yes-pod ; well, I broke open th e pod of one and th en it just dawned upon me that peas were li ttle round green things, so I hu nter! the garden over to find some plant w ith little green balls growing on it. Your uncle thought that l had lost som ething a nd came ou t to sec if he could help me. He thought it was a good joke when I told him w hat I was looking for-but I know better now".

"Be still , Babs . I thought 1 saw ;i, black s hadow over by that large el m ti-ce", whispered Gerdy. "I ovc1-hcad my aunt telling uncle Joe that s h e thoug路h she heard som eone prowling about the last two nights. U ncle Joe told he r not to speak so loudly because if the g irls heard about it they would wa nt to leave.

I slipped away because I thought I had heard enough".

"Oh, Gcrcly, isn't that fine no vv, we ca n be detectives as well as fa rmerettes.

have r etired, so we'll have the pleasure of greeting the visitor", said Babs, as she crawled into the hammock.

"Be s till G erdy. The shadow is moving -it's a man! He looks as if he has overa lls on, and Gerdy, I do believe it is neighbor Jones' hired man. \,\That do you s uppose he wants?" asked Babs.

"I wouldn' t doubt but that he is coming over to sing love ballads to Miss Barbara", ansvvered Ge rdy in a relieved voice.

"Nonsense ! vVhat do you m ean?" " \,V hen I was at the post office th e other day some of the m en were teasing him about dreaming of the ligh t-haired far m erette, and it must be you, for my hair is da rk brown. I wouldn't doubt but that it was he whom my aunt heard", w hisper ed Gerdy. ''\Ve'll fi x him so he won't dream about her an y more. Cerdy, you s lip through th e open window on the side porch and get two sheets that your aunt just washed today. They are on th e top of th e clothes basket in the corner of the kitchen. Re quick and I'll watch here", finished Babs.

In a few seconds Gerdy was back w ith the sheet s. By this time the "dreamer" was w ithin a few rods of the porch s teps, so that the girls were compelled to lie quietly in th e hammock and wait for the next move. Slowly and quietly the man walked around the front of th e house and at the side the foots t eps ceased. The g irls conjectured that he had stopped beneath their bedroom wi ndow. N ow was the time for their work. Quickly th ey draped th e sheet s around themselves and s tcalthly s lipped from the porch to th e opposite s ide of the house from which their guest vvas located.

"Now Gerdy, you slip over by the elm tree and hide behind it until I send my fri end over in that direction. He w ill likely come in a hurry, so be on th e look-

out. Then if he seems inclined to hang around, wh ich I doubt very much, make your appearance and follow after him until he is off the premises. Now hurry, and be 1·eady for action". \ i\1 ith these words Babs started around the house.

It seemed only a few seconds to Gerdy unti l she heard a muffled scream , and then a dark fi g ure, followed by Babs in w hite, darted towards the elm tree. Gercly was ready for action, and as s he heard the panting near her, s he ma.de her appearance. Another groan of fright and the poor hired man mad e another clash for safety. The g ids now heard sounds wi thin the house, and glancing at th e fl eeing man and deciding that he did not m ea n to stop until he reached his farmhouse, they hurried back to the porc h where th e uncle and aunt were standin g wrapped up in bed clothes.

Babs was the first to regain her breath, and she gasped, "vVe--though t we'cl--have - som e fun, but didn't mean to frighten you".

Gercly then came to the r escue and explained the affair. The un cle and aunt, after hca1-ing the sto1·y, looked serious.

Uncle Joe was the first to speak. " I'm afraid, g irlies, you ha ve had too much fun.

I don't like to have ghos ts around my place, and if you are going to attract all the youn g m en a round here to come prowling around my house at night as you have in this case, I would suggest that you give u p being farm erettcs.

N either of you are much good as farmers a nd I can't afford to waste my time showing you how to do things.

Babs looked at Gerdy an d Gcrdy looked at Babs until th ei r auntie said, "Let's go to bed now and we'll ta lk abou t it in the morning" .

MAROON AND GRAY agam themselves, they looked at each other in amazement. "\,V ell, what wi ll we do?" asked Babs; " J won't go home and tell the folks that we wer en't a success". ."Neither will I", responded Gerdy.

"Something will happen to help us, so let us go to bed and perhaps uncle will feel differently ab out us tomorrow".

At s ix thirty the girls appeared at the breakfast table in their garden clothes.

Nothing was said about the episode of the night before, so the girls ,vent out with Uncle Joe to th e garden plots . At t en thirty he told the girls to go for the mail and perhaps they had better send a card to th eir parents t elling them that they intended to come home. " I guess Uncle Joe didn't chang路e his mind", said Gcrdy, as they walked toward the village post office.

"No, and I su ppose we may as well go home and face the reb ukes of our friends .

When the girls arrived at the pos t office they hea rd excited voices w ith in and also this exclam ation, "Hush! The ghosts arc coming" .

"Oh, Babs, they know about our fun", whispered Gerdy. " I won't go inside'' .

"I w ill", said Babs, walking defia ntly to the office window. I n a mo ment she appeared with a letter.

"Oh, Gerdy, I've got a letter from h ome", and Babs hastily tore open the envelope aml g la nced at the wr itten page:, then react aloud as fol lows: Dearest Daugh ter: Father has to make a business trip out west and wi ll be gone for a month. He suggests that we accompan y him and take th e car. H e says that you can get tanned driving the car and also get muscle fixing blowouts, so wouldn 't you like to com e horn e?

EDITORIALS E are graduating from High School, with all our lives befo re us, full of hopes and aspirations, and each of us w ith a great resolution to 1i1ake his life a success. \,Ve may go to college and we may not, but that determination to be successful sti 11 remains.

For some of us our goals are quite clearly and definitely determined, but in many of us success is an obscure thing, something that man y desire, but few obtain.

Perhaps it would be well if we think a moment what the word "success" really means. Just what is it ? Does it m ea n fame? Edgar Allen Poe and Robert Burns both obtained fame; but can we call the life of either a s uccess? Countless other examples could be m entioned such as Lonl Byron; yes, an rl even N apolcon; though, of course, people would differ in their opinions concerni ng the life of this g1·eat general. No; a life cannot be termed wholl y successful if fame is the only incentive for labor and fame is its only result.

Is it wealth? 11/fany people start out in life with th e primary desire in their minds to cam a fo1·turn:. But the people who cultivate this sordid desire find it a passion that never can be quite gratified; it always desires more and more, until the mind forgets all the finer sentiments of life in the one great overwhelming lust for gold. It is true we read a great deal about our weal t hiest men in the newspapers, but how much do you think wi ll

--------

be knovvn of them a couple hundred years from now? Nothing- if th eir wealth is the only thing that has brought them to the attention of the public.

How much do we read in history about the rich men who must have lived years ago? At th is moment, Shakespeare's char acter of Sh ylock comes to my mind and· who would be envious of him? No; then wealth docs not constitute success.

Can it be social position? But this question needs no answc1·. Vl/e all ha ve heard of the failures of the p~tted and pampered rich. That does not m ean to s ay that those of a high social standing never attain success, for on the contrary, many have clone so. Neve rth eless, a social position is always wai ting to welcome the successful, while success n e\'er wa its for· anyone; rich and poor alike have an equal chance to toi I and win the pri ze. Perhaps someone may disagree at thi s point and say that a man of high birth has s uch a "pull" with the bi g men in the industrial field that success figuratively jumps at him and h e has nothing to do but grasp it w ith his hand and be gently "pulled" along. Hut success, as I think of it, gives every o ne of us an equal opportunity. lt is a wo rd that includes more than any one of these. A man may be successful and y et have no ne of the things stated above.

\ 1\lc have heard of Flo1·cnce N ightingale, have we not ? \ 1\f as she a sucess? Indeed, she ·w as. No Englishman can speak her nam e except in reverence. No soldier enjoying the comforts s u pplied him by the

Reel Cross d uring the recent 路w oriel \lv a r can give enough thanks to th at first woman who end ured all the hardships of th e Crimean War for her fellow man's sake. And, taking an example that ,vc have studied from childh ood on, recall t o your mind Abraham Lincoln. It is saying a great deal for a man when, as we can say of Lincoln, at his death even hi s enemies wept fo r him.

These two people did only w ha t seemed to them the ir duty and yet (and here is a very essential point) were never willing to believe that they had <lone t oo muc h, so they worked on. Their best was

no t quite good enough and they worked to make it better. And because they fai thfully continued doing those tasks which th ey kn ew to be right and good, fam e, honor, weal th, and all else came to th em.

Another school yea r is drawing to a close and soon the classes w ill ex perience "mo vin g up" clay. New responsibilities will be thrus t upon the present lower classes , but we feel s ure that they are capable of bearing th em. On account of war conditions, a s a school, perh aps we have not been able to accomplish as much as in previous years, but it is our hope that the school term next year will not be so handicapped. The responsibility of publishing the Maroon and Gray will r est largely upon the present Junior class. Of course th e support of th e o th er classes w ill be expect ed, but do not all the classes look up to th e Seniors as leaders? To have a successful paper, however, every mem ber in th e High School must g ive it his loyal supp ort. \Ne are familiar with th e saying that "united we stand, divided we fall" , and we are confident that it is the desire of all interested that the Maroon and Gray shall stand, so let us b e willing to wo rk earnestly w hen the school doors are open ed again for another year's wo rk.

'v\le are all anxiou s for vacation days and especiall y th ose who have no t b een taking a vacation during the year. In every school there are always a few who are indifferent as to doing good work. ~om e think that to go through High Sc hool means o nl y getting throu gh on a passing g rade. \ 1\T hy not however let it be th e aim of every pupil to do his best and then at the encl of the school year he will fee l that h e has accom plis h ed something an d fai r grades will be a proof of it.

Our High School work is simply a st epping stone into our future and if we are wi lling to take a firm and steady st ep now we w ill be s ure to have a good foundation on whic h to build our future. \Ne hear so much about "High School S pirit". Do we all possess that quality ?

If we do. not we should, if we expect t o have a successful High School career.

E veryone shou ld be interest ed in at least one of the different activities. T he boys, w hether they intend to play footbal l and baseball or not, s hould at least show th eir interest by joining the At hletic Association. Th is year is the first yea r the girls

And the last exhortation we can give to 1919 is only this, but it means a great dea l. Select sound prin ciples; test them carefully; then, r emain steadfast to them ; work for them; weave your life about them, and all other things will com e to you. Then men wi 11 say of you "Truly, his life was a s uccess".

MAROON have had athletics and we are confident that the loyal support from every girl will keep alive this phase of activities for them. In every High Sc~ool there are pupils talented in music and why should they not take an interest in the High School orchesti路a? The Y. 'vV. C. A. is also an organization that can accomplis h much if th e girls show their interest and support it. There is a chance for every m ember in High School to help -in some

There arc additional ways of increasi ng our education oth er than from books and w ha t better 路w ay can we acquire this knowledge than by working together and associating with each other in school activities?

H e is forever turning a corner too qui ckly and making a collis ion, forever flirting with whom ever is handy (and vvilling to h elp), and forever disgus ted and being abused by the ladies. His laugh is quite original and can be heard, both on account of its intense vo lume and peculiarity, at least three blocks away.

many years the girls of S. C. H. S. have faciliti es, and perh aps inclination for athletics, padicularly basketball. This is a 1-csult of agitation b y the Y. \\/. C. A. girls last year, and was brought to a successful finish b y the Parent-Teac hers' Association, who were instrumental in furnish ing us with necessary properties. As a r esu lt we now have a fai rl y good outdoor basketball cour t and ball, for which we are properly grateful. \Ve organized basketb a ll about th e first of October under th e leader s hip oi Mrs. Vorse, to whom we tak e this chance of extending o ur heartiest thanks .

The girls, too, hav e responded nobl y an d have shown the greatest interest.

At the b egi nning of the year forty girls came out for bask etb all , and of those only five or six ha ve dropped out. A fine recoi-cl ! \r\'c p layed among ourselves until cold and snow made it impossible.

As yet we have played no g ames with outside teams. Several times we haw路 almost played the freshmen girls of Penn S tate, but due to inc lement weather we ha ve been unable to practice o n our outdoor court, an.cl ha ve been under th e n ecessity of calling the game off. \Ve had intended to ha ve indoor athletics during t h e winter, but owing to cond itio ns which we were not ab le t o co nt1-ol, that plan was impracti cable.

As soon as the April shm,v ers become less frequent so tha t the court can be lined we ,,vill st::i rt basketball aga in.

S. C. l T. S. has do n e fine so fa r in girl s ' basketball. S he has plen t y of fine material for a sta1- varsity tea m and pe rhap~ next year she will be able to play some outside games, and win them too.

Keep up the good work, g irls!
