Title: Barquentine "E.R. Sterling" off Waitemata Harbor, Auckland, New Zealand
Date: 1919
Description: Back caption: "U.S.A. Barquentine 'E.R. Sterling' off Waitemata Harbor, Auckland, N.Z. 1919." In 1910 the Canadian six-masted barkentine 'Everett G. Griggs' was renamed 'E.R.Sterling.' In 1920 she became a vessel of Alaska salmon fishery corporations. In 1925, she made her last voyage to Puget Sound. In July of 1927, while enroute from Australia to the United Kingdom with a load of wheat, she was caught in two storms, one off the Falkland Islands. The result was the loss all of her masts and one crew member. With jury rigged sails, she finally reached St. Thomas where she was towed to London. Capt. Sterling decided that the cost of repair was too much, so she was sold to shipbreakers who dismantled her for scrap.\

BARLOW THOMAS SMUITH Twenty-six years ago the citizens of Bellingham were anxiously awaiting the decision as to where in the county the new State Normal School was to be located. On February 19, 1893, a newspaper stated: " Now that Anderson's Normal School bill has passed, West Geneva and Langtry Point on Lake What-com are mentioned as desirable locations for a site." However, when the present site was donated, all other locations were for-gotten. In 1896, the first build-ing was erected at a cost of $45,000. The school opened its doors to students on September 6, 1899. The faculty hoped for an attendance of one hundred. Three hundred forty-nine en-rolled. The first assembly room was but a part of what is at present the library. The commencement exercises were held in the Bell-ingham Theatre, in old What- Ten ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 11 ---------- KLIPSUNzw comn. The first office of the president was the room which Mr. Bever now uses as an office. The one large ivy-clad stump is a reminder that in the early day s there were twenty-four such, set in a spuashy, mos-quito- inhabited swamp w h i c h lay between the knoll and the Normal building. The east end of Sehome was excavated and this swamp filled in. At that time there were not so many trees on the hill and those few stragglers which were striving to cling to the steep sides were only four or five feet tall. Fromi a small beginning has grown our present institution. The Training School building was added in 1901; Edens Hall in 1905; Science Annex in 1907; the Manual Training Shop and an additional amnnex to the Train-ing School in 1913. Dr. G. W. Nash became president of the school in 1914. Under his tlirection each department has steadily improved until our school has recognition throughout the entire United States. It is the purpose of D)r. Nash to keep the school abreast of the times and to offer courses that attract students from all parts of the state and other states as well. The result is seen in the large student body. A beautiful and well kept lawn is the pride of all of the students. During the year 1918-19 the Students' Loan Fund was in-creased to $15,000. Among the appropriations which have been granted to the Normal School during the year 1918-19 are $100,000 to be used for a dormitory, $15,000 for ad-ditional grounds and $82,000 for either a library or a new gymna- sium. Eleven Eleven ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 12 ---------- KI LIPSUNV 'W Trail FIRST PRIZE POEM EVA SANTEE Currant leaves, cedar trees, hazel bush, and pussy willow, Maple vine, white pine, hemlock bark of red, Dogwood and cottonwood, mountain ash and larkspur, Juicy, acrid bloodroot -- then, a gentle tread In forest deep on yonder trail when day is done! When all the West is lighted with the dying sun! Columbine and deer tongue, blue flag and ginger cup, Maiden fern, trillium, each one in retreat; Johnny-jump-up, violet, mayflower white, and green moss, Leafy limbs that quiver as the tall trees meet In a stir of evening wind; and swiftly then Falls the twilight on the trail, and on the woody glen. Din of battle over, and tread of hurrying feet, Bullets' whizz and trench-fire are long since passed away. A rider comes on woodland trail, as dusk lay in the forest, Who passes many an old-time haunt, clothed now in sun-set ray! He's back from gore-stained fields of France, beyond the mighty foam; He helped bring Peace to all mankind - so now, he's home! he's home! -- -- ~- -----~-~-~-----~-~ ~ _J ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 13 ---------- KLIPSUN OLIVE EDENS Acting Head of the English De-partment and Literary Advisor of the Klipsun. ___ MARIE CAREY IRUSE Head of the Department of Art and Handicraft, and Art Advisor of the Klipsun. :4 4 Tiee Thirteen ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 14 ---------- KLIPSUN KLIPSUN STAFF Fourteen ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 15 ---------- 4KLIPSUNV Klipsun Staff Editor in Chief Assistant Edilor Business Manager Art Association A thletics . . .

For my ship, she has sailed for realms remote and far from my land of birth; She has slipped the bars of the Golden Gate and heads for the end of earth! Oh! Gladly I'd hail the sting of the spray-I'd wade in brine to my neck Could I feel today the tilt of my ship, and plank my feet on her deck! They have sewed on my sleeve a discharge stripe, and tell me that I am free, Free from that portion, the lot of the "gob"-a gob on the open sea! They tell me again that lucky I am, with life and with love before. My mate can't they see that life if behind, that love is a closed door? They have shut me up in ten by twelve to sit here and push a pen, And they call that life, and they ask me why I long for the sea again! Yet here o'er my ledger I dream once more of the days that never can be, While my ship sails on by the Unmarked Trail that leads away to the sea. I've traveled the deep from the Guernsey Isles to lands of the Southern Cross; I've broken the laws of God and man, and I've killed my Albatross; I've suffered the curse of the "evil eye," and I've drifted at sea afar. But instead of the pen, I've held the wheel, and I steered by a guiding star! I've seen the crimson of the bursting mines in the sunset's after glow, And the grey-streaked terror, stained with blood, whom we sent to death below. All these I saw, and was unafraid, still undismayed I went forth; For blessed was I with a holy joy-I loved a lass of the North. But faith, it can waver and vanish, and love, it can wither too; So give me my ship on the ocean, the only lass that is true; And we'll leave for the sea together by way of the Unmarked Trail; We shall have a placid clearing, and not the sign of a gale; At the Golden Gate our skipper shall lift for us the bars, And there in the glow of sunset, we'll set our course by the stars. - IRENE PURDUE. Sixty-three ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 64 ---------- .. K. IPSUN 'e Training School The work in the Training School this year has lived up to its already- established high reputation. The faculty of this particular de-p) artmnent of Normal work has been strengthened by the return of one of its former members, Miss Cath-erine Montgomery, and the addi-tion of Misses Charleton, Morse, Moffatt, Wallace and Tompkins. The work of the Junior Red Cross was carried over from last year most successfully. The en-rollment was 100% of all Training School Students. The allotments of work to be done were sent direct from Seattle to Normal. As far as athletics are concerned, the following qluotation from the Normal Messeniler shows the ability and school spirit of our juvenile athletes: " Too much cannot be said in praise for the splendid record the Normal Training School basketball teams have established for themselves. During the season just closed, our boys won five out of six games played, and they acquitted themselves remarkably well throughout. Jack \Vhittakcr, who coached the boys, may justly be proud of the results attained. " There were two organized teams, one comlposed of eighth grade boys, and the other of both eighth and ninth. The eighth grade team was cominosed of the following: Edgar Foster, Nor-man Carr, Cyrus Neilson, Howard McClannahan, Ray Smith, Hubert Boone, Vance Radovyck and Ralph lHennes. The follow-ing made up the eighth and ninth: Nor:man Carr, Leslie Stuart, Cyrus Neilson, Howard McClannahan, Vinton Groat and Gordon Broadbent. "The schedule of games played with the results follows: Normal 14, vs. Lowell 10; Normal 22, vs. Lowell 6; Normal 29, vs. Whatcom Freshmen 24; Normal 29, vs. Whatcom Freshmen 28; Normal 31, vs. Y. M. C. A. Intermediates 28; Normal 17, vs. Y. M. C. A. Intermediates 28." K Sixty-four ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 65 ---------- KLIPSU N In the lower grades, under the able supervision of the Misses Montgomery, Charlton, Moffatt, Tompkins and Gray, the little tots made splendid progress during the year, even though the " flu " hindered them. It is an inspiration to see the halls and rooms decorated with the work of these youngsters, some of which might put older people to shame. One of the valuable additions to the numerous advantages given pupils of the Training School this year is the juvenile library. In a room, especially furnished, these juvenile books are attractively displayed. That such a library has been long wanted is evidenced by the eagerness and enthusiasm as displayed about it by all, even the littlest tots. Our Normal School has sent cadets into the city school sys-tems of both Everett and Bellingham, where they have met with great success in their work under the able supervision of Miss Drake in Everett and Mrs. Samson and Miss Nellie Lee in Bell-ingham. Miss Earhart, the efficient principal of the entire Training School, is responsible for much of the success of this year. Through many difficulties she has raised the standard, and bears the loyalty and good-will of the pupils and student-teachers alike.

Groot, Stewart, Foster, Neilson, Broadbent Training School Basketball Team The Training School basketball team established a record this year which will keep future teams busy to equal. They won five games out of six played. The first two games were played with the Lowell Grammar School, when our boys easily sent their opponents to defeat. The next games Coach Whittaker took the boys out of their class and put them up against the Whatcom High Freshmen. The Freshmen gave the bovys a hard fight hbut sunerior team work gave our team both victories. The final two games were played with the Y. M. C. A. i mediates. Against this team our boys were greatly outwei but managed to break even. winning one and losing one gan Jack Whittaker believes the secret of their success lies ii fact that the boys put in a great deal of extra practice.

Sponsor THE REVELATIONS OF THE ALETHEIAN SOCIETY In the beginning was a synagogue for teachers on a hill, and the synogogue was without life and a gloom was upon the faces of all therein. And a spirit took form and moved upon the faces of a few, and the few said, "Let there be clubs"-and there were clubs. And the people saw the clubs that they were good, and they divided themselves among the clubs. And the evening and the morning was long ago. Then another few said, "Let there be another club among the clubs and verily it shall be liter-ary." And the club was called Aletheia, which being interpreted means truth. And the forests brought forth an owl which is the bird of wisdom, and laid it at the feet of Aletheia. And it was morning 1916. And it came to pass that -Jt Seventy - I -~- -- ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 71 ---------- Aletheia waxed strong and flourished as a green bay tree, and the club grew and became mighty because of its members. Now Bertha. of the tribe of Crawford, Supervisor, raising herself to her full height, called to her assistance one Exean Woodard, known throughout the synagogue as Dean, and behold, they had the interests of the club at heart, and the fame of it was noised abroad into all that synagogue, so that the multitudes loitering in the corridors thereof were heard continually to ex-claim, "What is this great thing that hath come to pass among us!" And straightaway came the multitudes to the doors of the tabernacle, beseeching admittance therein. And lo. throughout that age there was much rejoicing and feasting in the tabernacle of Aletheia. Four days did they labor, and on the night of the forth the trumpet of the jubilee was caused to sound and they did eat and were merry. Moreover, not only were these occasions of feasting, but many and great were the problems propounded-yea even unto art, literature, music and science. And the evening and the morning was 1919. Now a voice which was heard as it were a trumpet saith, "Come up hither and I shall shew thee things which will be hereafter," and behold we saw greater things than these which were to come to pass, and lo, a great multitude clothed in raiment that neither mud nor dust can corrupt. And a smile is upon the faces of all, and verily it is a week-end festival of the Aletheians. And it came to pass that the name of Aletheia waxed mighty throughout the length and breadth of the synagogue, and its members loved it exceedingly. And the deeds of Aletiheia became an example for the clubs of other synagogues. Yea, though we walk through the valleys and shadows of life, yet shall we fear no evil, for thy influence, 0 Aletheia, is with us, memories of thee, they comfort us, thou restoreth our soul, thou leadeth us in the paths of understanding and truth for thy name's sake. Surely love and appreciation for thee shall follow us all the days of our life, and we shall think of thee kind-ly forever.

The weather was ideal for picnicking. A hearty dinner was eaten around a crackling campfire. Later, hikes were made to Lake Whatcom, Chuckanut and Inspiration Point. The visit to Vancouver, B.

It was organized in 1906. Miss Baker was requested to be club advisor by the organizers, and from that time she has been, not only an ardent worker in the club, but a real friend and advisor to each girl member. Through her un-failing inspiration and the interest of the members, the club has been able to accomplish its aim in literary work. Programs have been interesting and instructive. The first semester's meetings were devoted to the study of Finland. This began with a map study of Finland that created the desire to travel through that land of lakes and fens. This was followed by the story of the rediscovery of their epic poem, "The Kalevala." The study of the quaint customs and legends of those people with illustrations from their myths, and finally a short history of that much troubled little land. The study of copies of fam- ous art productions in the Nor-mal building and their respec-tive artists was taken up the sec-ond semester. This study was given in talks on the lives of the artists, with the discussion of such of their paintings as we could find reproduced in the Normal hall pictures, and in the other photographic collections. This course was equally interest-ing. Instrumental and vocal S Seventy-four ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 75 ---------- 1KLIPSU N music, readings, recitations and parliamentary drills lightened the programs. The first big social event of the year was a trip to Miss Baker's cabin at Lummi Island, taken on the twenty-seventh of September. All who went had a most delightful time. On January first and March first were held the initiation parties, both proving interesting and successful. The Christmas party that was to be given at the home of Mrs. Jenkins, was planned and well under way, but influenza stopped all operations. The party was given on the sixtenth of April, instead, and all went in pinafores and pigtails, casting aside cloaks of dignity for the time being. On the fourteenth of February the Juniors of the club enter-tained the Seniors at a banquet at the Leopold, a continuation of an old established custom of the club. Mrs. G. W. Nash and her mother, Mrs. Fuller, were the guests of honor. In keeping with the ideal of service, the club held a candy sale on January the twentieth, and the proceeds were given to the Armenian Relief Fund. On March twentieth, Mrs. Foster of this city, gave a very interesting talk on her experiences while teaching in Northern Alaska. Another interesting feature was the Arbor Day program given by the clubs of the school. The aim was to beautify the campus of our dear old Alma Mater. And now all members look with sorrow to the time when they must of necessity dissolve union, but there will linger in their hearts, unchangeable by time's rough seas, happy memories of our times spent in congenial fellowship.

Miss Gray and Miss Milne, the club sponsors, have made possible through their good counsel and interest, much of the rapid growth and success of the club. In September was held the first reunion at Squalicum Beach, around a camp fire. Throughout the year our programs have been based upon the holidays of each month. The club did its " bit " at the students' mixer in February by giving the shadow play, " Mary Jane." In March, Miss Milne and Miss Gray entertained the club at a social meeting with great success. Perhaps no reference should be made to initiation. All can-not be told of it, but nose races, aerial flights and blood-curdling scenes of terrible warfare and living torture took place. Let us bury the past. Esther Stuber delightfully entertained the club in her home, in April. Every club member will long remember that evening. Another party each club member cannot forget, is the Garden Hall party. At that party everyone enjoyed herself to the full extent of the law. By faithful and harmonious work the club has accomplished its original aim and the interest of the new members gives encouragement for the future. Those members who go out of school this spring leave with a wish for the success of Ohiyesa, and may its standard always proclaim it in all its enterprises, " The Winner."

Secretary-Treasurer Centuries ago, when the foundation of history was assuming the strength and proportion necessary to sustain the burden of future civilization, the adamant rocks of Delphi gave issue to oracular fumes of superstition. Men journeyed to this place to gain the knowledge for which their restless natures yearned. They believed in the veracity of the Oracle, and believing, they knew. One day a group of travelers entered the mystic sanctums of Delphi. They were prominent men of ancient Athens. The cold realities of the present dissolved into obscurity, and the seers were gazing at a marvelous picture, a picture animated by strange beings with strange costumes. They were sitting about a camp fire in the jungles of Whatcom Falls Park. The solemn roar of the fall itself could be distinctly heard, while the phantom-like shadows of the campers danced in grotesque array among the nearby trees. But hush, one Ernest Kobelt was speaking, while the rest did heed in rapt attentiveness. He related hideous tales about bears and catamounts that he did overcome and sub-due, how at one time he did descend through the hollow of a tree to the domain of a ferocious grizzly bear and, with but the aid of a cork-screw, urge said grizzly to leave his domicile. As the speaker concluded his harrowing narrative, he was rewarded with ejaculations of wonderment and awe. Eighty-six ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 87 ---------- The picture faded, as does a vivid dream when the sleeper is disturbed, but another took in its place. Our Grecian wights gazed upon the same gathering, but under vastly different circulm-stances. The oracle portrayed a large, beautifully furnished room. People were sitting around tables, shaking little cubes of wood with letters upon them. It was evident that a game of some sort was in progress. Moving about among the company and smiling quietly to himself and everyone else, was observed a tall, scholarly looking gentleman, often addressed as Mr. Phillipi. It could plainly be seen that he was sponsor and host of the proceed-ings - that he was entertaining them in honor of an important event. It was the birthday party of a great organization. Other pictures of interest appeared and vanished. These showed different members of the same organization busy at various occupations of work and amusement. And they showed themselves capable of entering just as heartily into one as in the other. In fact, many were called upon to act as leaders in school activities, and they performed their duties with efficiency and dispatch. A most interesting portrayal of this congenial body of young people was that describing their week-end party in the wilds of Lake Whatcom. Nature seemed determined to outwit the happy plans of the party by calling down unending floods of rain, but in this she was unsuccessful. Each camper wore a smile that could not wash off, and went about his duties, social and other-wise, with joy and sincerity. A few accidents occurred, which only made the occasion a success. One of the campers attempted to step from a row-boat onto a float--but, sad to relate, he missed the float. An enterprising youth started to take a party of ladies for a launch ride -and ran out of gasoline. Two of the boys " borrowed " a row-boat - and were caught. But the most beautiful picture was that showing the campers grouped around a glorious beach fire, singing, telling stories and otherwise enjoying the friendly companionship which no human being should be so unfortunate as to lack. And it was on this scene that the Grecian seers saw the picture slowly fade, and felt the realities of their present, hum-drum existence intrude upon their minds. They left the mystic, enchanted atmosphere of Delphi fully realizing that they had seen the work and play of the Philomnatheans -- Lovers of Learning.

To my surprise and delight, I recognized Leo Brewer, an old school-mate of mine at the Bellingham State Normal. We had scarcely exchanged greetings, when a cheer arose from those on deck, and we turned for a last look at the Statute of Liberty, standing out in bold relief against the glowing afternoon sky. "We can now partially appreciate the emotions of our sol-dier boys when they left New York ten years ago," he said, as we sought the comfort of some steamer chairs. "I take it that you, too, are bound for Paris to attend the International Education Association, " Upon my answer in the affirmative, he started to reminesce. "The year when we were at Bellingham-that was in 1918-1919, was it not?-was rather a discouraging one for the Rural Life Club, but we were not the only sufferers from the Iflu.' At any rate, we more than made up for a bad beginning." " Indeed we did," I warmly agreed. " The Christmas party was a success even though it did come after the New Year. I still laugh over the way Patty and Zeramba looked after the initiation at the Valentine Party." "They resembled Indians in war p)aint," laughed Mr. Brewer. "Do you remember that idea of having sectional meetings? I have carried out the same plan in our high school literary society. Public speaking with Mr. Klemme was surely a pleasure. By the way, did you know that he is on this same boat?" "No," I exclaimed in delighted surprise, "then we certainly must find him. Perhaps he can tell us if Miss Keeler and Mr. Coughlin still keep up the music and dramatic sections. How I should like to pay the club a visit ! " "Same here!" he responded with boyish enthusiasm. "Last year I attended the Rural Life Conference, but did not enjoy it half as much as the one in 1919. Every member worked hard to make that conference a success. I still keel) my gray and crimson badge among my sacred relies." "Has our Arbor Day shrub-bery survived ? " I asked. " Survived ? Every spring they say it is the most beauti-ful clump on the carmpus " Thus talking and laughing over our club, and the happy days we spent at Bellingham Normal, we realized how very much the Rural Life Club had meant in our lives.

Rah! Rah ! Rah! Rah Rah! Rah! Rah!! Everybody here's a Thespian!" So vividly did I dream, that I started violently up and looked about for the old familiar faces. Of course there was nothing to be seen but the inky blackness outside the glow of the dying fire and the laughing moon and the jolly little stars overhead. Soon the fire was crackling away right merrily and I lay down again to let my imagination paint pictures in the flames. I remembered the first Thespian meeting in the fall of 1918. The faces were all strange with the exception of one old member, Mrs. Higginson. But our heart's desire was for dramatics and with that bond to hold us together we determined to make Thes- pian the club of the school. " Did we do it?" And even as I laughed at the sound of my own voice in the stillness I waited for that circle of faces there in the fire to shout "Aye! " For so thinks every loyal Thespian. Then came the picture of the dull days when the "flu" raged in our midst. Quickly passing that I came to the second quarter when " Sis " Ober and " Red " Beardslee, Thespians of former years, came back to us. With the aid of Ab Hennes, whose loyal Thespian heart brought him back on club nights, they guided us into the paths of true Thespianism. I laughed as I thought of our wild debates over a Thespian play, and felt a little sad, too, to think that we could not arrange to have it in the spring when we were all there. Big plans were made, however, for what should be done during the summer session. Then came the last quarter and the return of " Bill " Nobles with all his Thespian pep. How the time flew from then until the annual banquet and we closed the year with one riotous evening over the festal board.

Meetings are called from time to time in which problems of mutual interest are discussed. These busi- ness meetings are sometimes varied with musical numbers by some of the many talented members. During the war, Hooverized programs were given at which the following line of topics pre-vailed: " Substitutes for Meat and Wheat," " How to Keep Up Nutrition and Keep Down Expense," "Tasty and Nutritious Dishes from Left-overs." The one big event of the year is the Young Housekeepers' mid-winter picnic. This is held in the big " gym," each family group seated around its own red table cloth and indulging in house "yells " and songs. Crossed frying pans furnish mural decorations, while broomsticks stacked like rifles add the military touch, and gay festoons of yellow grocery bills make the old " gym " a fitting bower for the festive occasion. When we have played until the whistle is a welcome sound, we seat ourselves " Turkish fashion " and have an open forum in which each con-tributes her bit along the line of little economies which she has discovered, the best places to buy, a good recipe for cheap cake, et cetera. " Fun, friendship and physical fitness " is the slogan of the Young Housekeepers.

Plans were made for the usual fall tasks of meeting trains and boats, and welcoming the new girls with gifts of flowers. The first devotional meeting was held Sunday, September the 15th, in the Association room. Dr. Nash gave us a message of comfort and cheer, and pledged his hearty sympathy and co-operation, and for the redemption of that pledge he has our deepest gratitude. The two o'clock period was set aside on Thursdays for our regular Association meetings. We have had many very interest-ing speakers, Two weeks after the opening of school a reception was held on the third floor of the Normal, to which the whole school was invited, and especially the new girls. This proved to be the only social event in school until the middle of December, as two weeks later the Normal was closed indefinitely on account of the pre-vailing influenza. A tea was served on Thanksgiving Day to those who could not reach their homes during the one day allowed for a vacation. Mrs. Ethel Thompson, the assistant dean of women, acted as our chief advisor until the new year, serving in the place of Miss M. Belle Sperry, who is taking a year's leave of absence. Influenza was the primary cause of our losing so valuable a helper; the secondary cause was a gentleman by the name of Muir, who stole her away from us to a beautiful home in Seattle. For a while we were like a ship without a pilot, but our salvation was found in Miss Gertrude Longley, head of the Home Economics Department. There are numerous Bible and mission study classes scattered over the " Hill" and at the Y. W. C. A. building. We desire to thank all the faculty members and others who have made these classes possible. The Y. W. C. A. cafeteria has been under the charge of Miss Grace Ryckman, to whom the whole school owes a vote of thanks for the bodily comfort her hot lunches have been to the school.

Art competitions are familiar to all of us. There are com-petitions in landscape studies, portrait painting, flower composi-tions- all the many lines of so-called art. The Inland Printer for March, 1919, calls attention to the result of a nation-wide competition in letter-head arrangement. What is the meaning of this new competition? It merely offers a concrete example of the growing feeling that art and progressive industry are inseparable. The letterhead is a business proposition; its arrangement is a matter of design. It may please or offend as the design is good or bad. Business men are learning that poor design is poor busi-ness. They are beginning to demand with greater and greater insistence that the schools of the country send them workers who can turn out an artistic product. But besides serving the ends of industry, art is something that enters into the very fibre of our lives. It takes the most common necessities of life - food, clothing and shelter - and by a touch so light it seems accidental, transforms these into things of charm and beauty. Unconscious art is the moving factor in all play, and the hardest work may become like play through the magic of an art touch that gives it rhythm, movement or color. If art has a real value in making life itself livable plus a value in industry as a thing by which we live, then, surely, art is too precious a thing to drop out of the minds and hearts of our American boys and girls, men and women. Its value is great today, but it will be greater tomorrow, and its greatness will increase until its influence will be felt by all of us down into the minutest details of our lives. Our art department has been an exponent of these two essen-tial characteristics of art - a thing to live and a thing by which to live. We have dwelt long and earnestly on the fundamentals of all true art - honesty of purpose, good faith in execution, pride and pleasure of accomplishment. Our work has borne out our definition of art as refined commonsense. The work done by a class of girls from the home economics department is one illustration of this. Their study of color and color harmony was applied to making appropriate decorations for a luncheon table, and afternoon tea, or, perhaps, a design for a school dress. Their study of lettering was applied in the making of menu cards. The contents of the home piece bags were utilized in the making of applique designs for such varied articles as piano _7J One hundred eight ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 109 ---------- K IPSUkN t scarfs, pillow tops, dress and evening bags. Another class trans-formed ordinary gunny sacks into attractive porch pillows by adding designs worked out in bright colored yarns. Another and entirely different phase of the work has been the making of com-mercial posters by one of the advanced drawing classes. One especially attractive set advertised foods; another used the " Own your home " slogan, and a third developed " fashions." These posters showed remarkable originality of thought as well as skill of workmanship. There have been two exhibits of work during the year. The first was held during the time of the Rural Life Conference, when several hundred visiting teachers, principals and superintendents passed through the four rooms of the art department. This exhibit had been planned to be of special help to the teachers of the rural schools, and the number of notebooks in evidence spoke eloquently of the appreciation of the visitors. The second exhibit was held in May and was an unusually attractive affair. The walls and tables were covered with excel-lent work done during the year, the rooms were bright with flowers, and the Studio Art Club girls served tea at beautifully appointed tables. An exceptionally fine collection of baskets made by the basketry class was one of the big features of the exhibit. Another phase of work shown was a group of local landscapes in water color, and some splendid pencil sketches by the advanced drawing classes. There was much work that could be carried directly into grade classes, and the work was arranged in such a way that the development from primary to intermediate, from intermediate to upper grades could be easily seen and followed. The whole exhibit carried out the idea that the real artist must see art in every walk in life. -- -- -- -- -- One hundred nine ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 110 ---------- KLIPSUN The Flower and the Weed A weed is but a misplaced flower, Which wastes its strength in useless bloom, To live a parasitic life and die, at least, As useless as it lived. A flower is but a weed So placed that bloom and beauty Lift themselves above the common stalk and clay To show unfathomed depths divine in life. The mission of the flower is beauty, Of the weed, a misspent life; One is misshapen, vile and low of purpose, The other is of the ethereal wealth of the universe.

Mark Embury, a scholar and scientist, had theories that the best way for a man to obtain a partner in life is to bring up a wife after his own ideals. This he planned to do, but as Burns said, "The best laid plans of mice and men gang aft aglee." Embury reared a wife, but reared her, as it turned out, for another man. So the play ended, not as expected, but happily after all, with Peggy, " Little Britain," as the bride of Captain George Lovell.

The plot of the play centers about Celia, the eldest of the four Faraday girls, who, unlike her sisters, seems still free from any nmatrimnonial entanglements. Becoming desperate over her " position," she decides to create an imaginary lover, and, to keep up appearances, writes him some love letters, addressing them to Col. John Smith, with the English Army in Africa. Phyllis, finding one of these letters, thinks that Celia had forgotten to mail it, and sends it off with the other mail. But as it happens, there is a real Colonel Smith in the English Army, and a game Colonel Smith, for upon receiving Celia's letter he decided to find the writer and hold her to the sentiments ex)ressed in the letter. So it was that Celia did not have to follow the old custom that the older sister of the family must wear green stock-ings if the younger ones are married first.

The question, " Resolved, that the United States Government should permanently retain the control and operation of railroads, constitutionality waived," drew best talent from the school. The Senior team, composed of Ruth Lineberry, Helen Schwartze and William Edson, spoke for the affirmative, while the Junior team, made up of Enid Shumway, Anna Taube and Harold Marshall, argued for the negative. Sad to say, the Junior team was awarded the decision. One hundred sixteen ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 117 ---------- E KLIPSUN EDSON SCHWARTZE LINEBERRY The first speaker for the affirmative was Ruth Lineberry, who pointed out that out of sixty-five countries having extensive rail-ways, sixty-one of these were successfully operated by the gov-ernment, with economy and efficiency. Miss Lineberry's speech was very forceful and convincing. Miss Taube was the first speaker for the negative. She con-tended that in the private ownership and control of railways, the average wage paid to employees was higher than during govern-ment control. She also stated that more transportation could be bought in the United States for a certain sum of.money than could be bought in Europe for the same amount. Miss Taube brought out her points very well, indeed, and her arguments were also forceful from the economic point of view. One hundred seventeen ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 118 ---------- V4I Next came Miss Schwartze, the second speaker for the affirm-ative. Miss Schwartze maintained that railroads under govern-ment control were more unified and co-operative, whereas the privately managed and controlled roads were managed for money and personal gain. Miss Schwartze cited the cases of the Alaska railroad and the Panama railroad. Enid Shumway was the second speaker for the Juniors. She claimed that government ownership would be a positive menace to railroad efficiency. Trained men, educated along this line, would be the only successful operators, and besides, if the govern-ment were not strictly honest, the public would be easily filched. The last speaker for the Seniors was William Edson. He said that people and all they possessed should not be entrusted to the care of a few capitalists, but should be placed in the hands of the government. He pointed out that during time of war, the Euro-pean government ownership was successful in getting men and supplies to the front in less time than privately controlled rail-roads would have done. Besides this, dividends were increased in the government controlled railroads. Harold Marshall, the last speaker for the negative, made a most brilliant speech. The rebuttals for each side were convincing and each sum-marized points very cleverly. This debate is an annual inter-class affairs of great import-ance. It was attended with a grand show of class snirit. The judges were Mr. Charles I. Roth, Judge Craven and Professor Forrest, of Fairhaven High School.

The second team basketball had given the first a hard tussel. Tomorrow night the big game between Hanford High and Burton was to come off. " Gee! I wish I were a real player! " sighed Dick to himself, " but I guess we second teamers are worth something just to keep the first in practice." " Wait a minute, fellows! " Bob Lane, captain of the first team, ran across the floor and stood with his back to the door. He studied the slip of paper in his hand for a moment, then lifting his head with a quick smile, read: " Lineup for tomorrow night, center, Olmstead; forwards, Lane, Curtis; guards, San-ders, Rolman; subs, Kirkfield, Olson, Gray. Now keep the diet rules. We must win this game." Then with a laughing, " Excused," in imitation of one of their professors, Captain Bob threw the door open and stepped aside to let the others pass. Dick stood speechless, the basketball which he had been idly tossing up and down poised ready for another toss. " Forwards, Lane, Curtis! Forwards, Lane, Curtis! " kept drumming in his brain. Suddenly he saw Joe Prescott's white face, the other side of the group. Why had Joe been put off? Dick's heart filled with a strange pity - then a sudden anger at himself, " to be put on the first team and then wish you weren't," he upbraided him-self, and flung the basketball viciously under the bench. Joe glanced across quickly and a smile hovered around his drawn lips as their eyes met. The other boys were silently filing out. Joe was evidently waiting for Captain Bob. This was what Dick had intended to do. " It won't do for both of us to wait. I'll try to walk home with Bob," he decided, and hurried into the dressing room. His mind's vision of Joe's white face was now changed to the picture of a happy girl bending over a letter, and that letter was from himself, telling of his new honor, but again Joe's white face would take first place. " Pshaw! It's not my fault," he muttered, vig-orously applying his towel after his shower. " But Joe has played on the team every game this season and is as good as Lane," his conscience insisted. Bob and Joe soon entered the dressing room. Dick spent a good deal of time lacing his shoes and managed to leave the room just ahead of Captain Bob. He waited on the steps and they passed down the walk together. Neither spoke. Queerly enough, now that they were alone, Dick could think of no way to broach the subject. He cleared his throat. Bob paid no attention but walked on with a pre-occupied air. Dick eyed the set face angrily. One hundred twenty OF. ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 121 ---------- ,4K LIPSU N " Pity he can't say something. Maybe he's got a spite against Joe." This notion was so out-of-place with all they had seen of their splendid captain that Dick was intensely ashamed of himself for the thought. He glanced uneasily at Bob - then, again clear-ing his throat, began, "Say, I-I think those new bushes the gardener planted here look fine, don't you? " It was not what he had intended to say. Bob started. " What? Oh, yes! Fine! " he answered absent mindedly. Dick made another try. "Going to the mixer Saturday night? " Bob did not seem to hear. Then almost startling himself by his abruptness, Dick had it out. " Bob," he cried sharply, " what's the matter with Joe? Why is he put off the team? " Bob halted, hands in pockets. " I'm sorry, Dick, but it's not a matter for publication," he said crisply. They walked on. Bob's manner forbade further questioning. " Well, here's where I turn off. Good-night, Dick," and contrary to his usual custom, Bob turned down a side street. Dick stood staring after him. " Well, I'll be switched! " he ejaculated. Soon the new member of the Hanford High basketball team was in his own room. Flinging his books on the table, he sat down to think. But his thoughts were not pleasant ones. " I need new shoes if I am to play tomorrow night, so I may as well go down town and get them." He was soon on his way, following a short-cut that led down through the railway yards. As he reached the yards a log train was slowly puffing through. Idly watching, Dick was thinking about the possible history of the trees. Suddenly he sprang erect. The second side log of the car now passing was slipping. Yes, a stave which evidently had held it in place lay teetering on the log below. Ten feet in front of him an Italian workman was shoveling sand. The log would surely strike him. And his back was towards it! Dick's flesh grew cold in horror. Then at the same instant that he was saying, " Oh, well, he's only a Dago," a sweet girlish face with a reproachful expression flashed through his brain. He sprang forward and flung his shoulders against the loose end of the log with all his furious young strength. The loose end swayed back towards the car. The workman, awakened to his danger by Dick's scream, dropped flat and with a quick roll just escaped the log. But the boy's force on the loose end acted as a lever to the whole log. It bounded off the car and Dick was pinned securely beneath it. Other workmen came hurrying from all directions. They soon extricated the lad and sent him to the hospital. One leg was broken and the other badly bruised. The next day dragged by as though the minutes were weighted down. The nurse brought him a morning's paper. Glaring headlines announced, " High School Boy Saves Life of Italian Laborer." And oh! horrors! there was a picture of himself. With a feeling akin to anger and disgust, he thrust One hundred twenty-one P~i~ 1 ---- ~ ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 122 ---------- =IK LIPSUN N the paper under his pillow and lay staring at the ceiling. "I suppose I ought to feel like an angel of mercy," he soliloquized, " but I feel more like murdering somebody." At noon he was surprised by a visit from Bob. " Hello, Dick! " sa ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 123 ---------- KKLIPSUN Half an hour later, the new boy suddenly sat up in bed. " Shivah mah timbahs! " he hollered. " Shivah mah timbahs! " and began pounding his bed clothes with clinched fists. "Ah'll pound you to a jelly-- yuh wall-eyed, sniveling cabbage." By this time two nurses had reached the bedside and forced the boy down into the bed again where he lay struggling and muttering out vague threats. A doctor was coming swiftly down the room to the assistance of the nurses. Suddenly the light of conscious-ness dawned in the wild eyes. The boy lay back quietly and stared at the nurses. " Where am I?" he gasped. " Where's Joe?" " You were run over by an auto, but you'll be all right soon." "Oh!" exclaimed the panic- stricken boy. "Tell Marse Blakely tah come quick. Tell Joe tah come. Ah'm gon-a die! Ah knows Ah'll die! " " Here, here now! " interposed the doctor sternly, giving the boy's shoulder a shake. " Stop that racket! You're not going to die." " Oh, but Joe did'en tak' the money. Ah was mad cause he licked me fo' eatin' Miss 'Anson's choc'late creams. I)at money is under Miss 'Anson's blotter-pad this minute. Oh, Lord, for-give me! " The light of understanding had dawned in the doctor's face and his lips were twitching with a strong desire to laugh, as he said, " Well, if you promise to keep still, I'll call Mr. Blakely." "Ah promise," and the darkey boy closed his mouth tightly and stared wildly at the ceiling. Dick reached up and gave his electric bell an energetic push. A nurse came hurrying to him. " What time is it?" he asked abruptly. " Four-forty," answered the nurse, glancing at her wrist watch. " Will you call Main 6402 for me and tell Bob Lane to come down here just as quick as he can? Tell him it's important and he must come." The nurse glanced quizzically at her patient, then with a pleasant " I'll try," departed on her errand. Twenty minutes later Bob was at the hospital. His face was anxious and puzzled. " What's up? " he questioned. It did not take Dick long to explain. Mr. Blakely had entered the ward a few minutes before and with a relieved look on his face was now leaving. Bob followed him outside and then stepped up to him. "Pardon me! Mr. Blakely," he said. Mr. Blakely turned and eyed the young captain up and down. Bob flushed crimson and felt very awkward, but struggled on. "I am Bob I,ane." The financier extended his hand, with a genial smile. " Captain of Burton High basketball team? " " Yes," said Bob, rather surprised, and hurried on. " My friend just happened to overhear your office boy's confession. Joe has been one of our best players and we had to put him off because of that theft. Now if we could get the proof -- " " He could play tonight," finished the financier. " Come along to my office and we'll find out right away." _.._...... .. ..... One hundred thewty-three ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 124 ---------- LIKPS U Nt'- They jumped into the waiting auto and were soon on their way. "I used to play basketball myself," explained the big man, " and I'd do anything in my power to help Burton High win and to make amends to Joe." The bills were discovered where the darkey boy had placed them. " Good! " exclaimed Mr. Blakely fervently, as he drew them forth. Mr. Blakely, Bob, and the auto were kept very busy the next half hour with the result that when the boys' Burton High team ran onto the floor that evening, Joe was among them. " Eat 'em up! Eat 'em up! " howled the Hanford lines. One hundred voices from the Burton lines hurled out triumphantly, "Stop your racket, Stop your fuss, Stop your howling, And watch us! " And Hanford answered back: " Rickety rick-rack! Chickety chick-chack! Give them the horse- laugh, Ha! Ha-a!" The teams were very evenly matched and the game was fast and furious throughout. The final score stood 25-20 in favor of Burton. As soon as visitors were allowed next morning, Bob, with face alight, was again standing by Dick's bedside. " Dick," he exclaimed happily, " we played a winning game; but it wouldn't have been possible without Joe, or without you, for you made it possible." " They would have found out Joe was innocent, if I hadn't done anything," protested Dick. " Yes, but not in time for the game. You've been playing a winning game right here." _1z0,1 One hundred twenty-four ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 125 ---------- AKKL PSUN 4. A Bachelor's Experience SECOND PRIZE STORY FLORENCE RICE I am a government agent - along just what line is immaterial to my story, except that my investigations led me through a wild and sparsely settled region of the Middle West. It was here I stumbled onto a most remarkable circumstance, the memory of which will never leave me - a thing unanswerable, dreadful - yet of baffling interest. It all hinged upon so simple a thing as a drink of water. I had traveled a weary way under the hot August sun and was very glad, indeed, when I chanced upon an old well, which stood some little way from a ramshackle log house. This was during those troubled times when German treachery was being evidenced on every hand. Thirsty as I was, I yet paused a second, trying to realize what the poisoning of water supplies must have meant to thirst-maddened soldiers. On top of that thought came another, most unwelcome. Such things were not unknown in our own country! Suppose it were unsafe to drink from this inviting fountain! Had I any right to risk my own life and jeopardize the government interests with which I was intrusted? I thrust the idea aside as being foolishly morbid and looked about for a bucket. First, I turned the old-fashioned windlass, hoping to find one attached to the weather-beaten rope. There was nothing there but the swinging end, which appeared to have been severed with a knife. Disappointed, I looked sharply about, but discovered nothing more than a bit of soft leather, which had plainly once been a baby's shoe. The buttonholes were stretched open from repeated fastening across some chubby little foot. Something forlorn in its unexpected appearance in this wilderness caused me first to pause and then slip it into my pocket. How universal is the appeal of a baby! Here was I, a hard-headed professional man, a bachelor of thirty-nine years and absolutely without the softening influence of mother, sister or even a stray aunt - here was I, clumsily fingering a bit ot chamois just because it had once covered a baby's pink foot! "What strange creatures we men are! " I was thinking as I approached the house in my search for a bucket. The door was slightly ajar. I rapped perfunctorily, then stepped inside. The sight that met my eyes was most disconcert-ing. The room was a dining room and kitchen combined. Evi-dently a meal was in the process of preparation, for the table was set for two and I noticed several pots and pans on the stove. The cabinet doors stood open, revealing many-sized jars and tins . ,I-"' One hundred twenty-five ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 126 ---------- SKLIPSU N of spices, sugar, etc. All was just as it might be if the woman of the house had stepped out to call dinner - all but the dust. There was dust piled thick over chairs, tables and dishes. Cobwebs swung from the rests on the stove, back and forth, and among the pots and pans. The floor was so thick with dust that I looked behind to find my own footprints staring boldly at me from the doorway. My curiosity was greatly aroused, and I passed on into the next room. Here, again, was food for speculation. Before a comfortable looking heater was drawn a low-back chair and on the stand beside it a book lay, face down, as though the reader had received sudden interruption. On a rack, by the stove, some clothes were airing, which I recognized with a start as baby's garments. The thing was getting on my nerves. Here was every evidence of recent habitation, while the dust and the stillness were silent witnesses to the contrary. I turned to go upstairs and nearly tripped over a baby's bottle lying hidden by the dust and gloom. Upstairs, clothes were strewn about on the bed as if hastily torn from the closets. Bureau drawers were half open while the only sign of life was an old owl blinking peacefully from the rafters. Nonplussed by the affair. I retraced my steps to the sitting room. What possible fortune or misfortune had caused people to depart so hastily from their home? What did it all mean? Looking about for a clue, I picked up the book from the table. What I discovered there roused me instantly from a state of dreamy wonderment to a practical realization of a serious situa-tion. The book was a German text and from its pages dropped a manuscript, the signature of which I knew only too well as belonging to the leader of an organization most deadly to our government. Here was a matter worth looking into and I determined to inquire at the first opportunity. Literally shaking the dust of this place from me, I plodded on into the twilight before reach-ing shelter with a hospitable farmer and his wife. Inquiry from him and from others throughout the locality gave me this information: A man and his wife had settled there nearly two years before. Nothing was known of their previous history and very little of their doings while there. They were often seen working together in the fields. He was a silent man, forbidding in aspect, and his wife was strangely unyielding to social advances. While there, a little child was born which seemed to be continually crying. No one appeared to know when they left or anything at all about their departure. The last seen of them was February 20 when the above farmer had gone that way for a load of wood. A date which he remembered since that load of wood made the last payment on his place. His wife then reminded him that the house had been deserted three days after that date, when they had stopped in on their way to town. This narrowed the time of departure to three days, February 20, 21 and 22. 7 One hundred twenty-six ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 127 ---------- KLIPSUN ... ..... The next step was to question the stationmaster of the lone depot, which formed the only means of exit. This was a pro-ceeding which promised little at first, as his memory did not seem equal to the occasion. Just as I was about to leave in despair, he "came to" with the statement that his sister was married February 21. Irrelevant as the remark appeared, it formed the basis for the following sworn statements. On the day of his sister's marriage, while the bridal party were waiting at the depot, he remembered distinctly seeing this fellow Black hanging around with another man. He was very sure about it because he had his " bloomin' old satchel " right in the road all the time. "'Peared like he was skeered suthin' would happen to the old thing. Marthy was mighty bothered fear folks might think he b'longed to her party - him and that disgraceful lookin' baggage! Why they was great cracks split in the leather an' the whole thing was fastened with - now what do you s'pose? " demanded the old man; but I had no time for that. I wanted to know if any one had left the day before or the day after. " No," grumbled the old fellow, " all the excitement had to come to onct! Why couldn't them two guys hev come the week before, when everything was so dead or when I was so darn lonesome durin' the storm? Ye see we had a storm for the nex' ten days an' not a soul come nigh!" That was enough for me and I rushed out, flinging my thanks behind me as I went. Undoubtedly Black left on that train and the man with him might have been his wife, but if so, where was the baby? An ugly suspicion flashed into my mind that made me involuntarily seek out the little shoe in my pocket and gave me a new motive for search. The police records finally confirmed the stationmaster's report, for a man and his wife dressed in man's garb, had been arrested in a nearby city the evening of February 21. Documents on their persons established their identity and guilt without ques-tion and they had been sentenced to a long term. The only question now, was, what had become of the baby? Maybe most people will think me a fool, but I still have that little shoe in my pocket and I am still looking for my answer. Black and his wife escaped, so that possible source of information is 'gone. Every stone has been turned but without avail. Three possible solutions chase each other through my mind as I turn the tiny footwear over in my hand. First, I try to think that the poor baby may have died from weakness and disease, before Black and his wife fled. To dispel this comes a memory of tiny robes hung by the fire and a baby's bottle lying on the floor. Then I fancy perhaps the child is alive somewhere today, and that Black and his wife carried it off in their strange baggage. Perhaps they cut the rope from the well to secure it better. How I wished I had let the old stationmaster talk when he wanted to! But even so, how had they gotten rid of it so quickly? The arrest was made immediately as they left the train and though their baggage was searched no mention was made of a baby. Always there comes back that lurking suspicion - the shoe lying by the One hundred twenty-seven lt;El~ iC~W"i~b~ ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 128 ---------- KLIPSUUN curbing, the rope cut and the customary bucket gone! Put with this the desperate nature of their enterprise and the ruthless character of the participants and you have some ground for serious reflection. Nevertheless, being a philosopher, I hold the little shoe to the light and claim it as mine, for whether the baby is lost or found, it is something for a man to feel ownership in a baby's shoe.

RAIRDON One hundred twenty-eight ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 129 ---------- KLIPSU E The " W" HONORABLE MENTION WINNIE SPIESEKE The house was what nearly all who passed called " The House of Dreams," for it represented the ideal home that everyone plans more or less definitely some time in life. It wasn't what an archi-tect would call " stylish " and the garden wouldn't have suited the ideas of a modern landscape gardener. The house itself, a small, plain, white building with green shutters and the same colored roof, nestled peacefully among the trees and flowers. It had age and stability that can only be acquired after generations of people have passed through its rooms. From the chimney curled a thin, blue smoke, that added the human touch to the scene; for where fire is, there is life. As the sun was low in the West, the birds were chirping their last farewells to the day, and over the garden descended the quiet and peace of twilight. The frag-rance of the hollyhocks, the jasmines, the roses, the pansies, the phlox and all the ohter beautiful, old-fashioned flowers blended together into a delicate odor that spoke of rest and peace. That was what the house had different from other dwellings. It was peace and harmony, not the peace that comes from inactivity, but the peace that comes after the battle has been fought and the victory won. Over one of the flower beds that was bordered with candy-tuft, and which had been recently spaded and raked, bent an old lady. With the handle of the hoe she was very skilfully marking off a large "W" in the center. When the lines were straight enough to suit her, she carefully and tenderly lifted from a box beside her a bunch of forget-me- nots and planted them on the line. One bunch after another she planted until in the center of the bed was a large " W " made of these little blue flowers. Rising slowly, she stood and watched the man as he gently sprinkled the little plants with an old-fashioned sprinkling can. After this was done and the man had gathered up his tools and gone off, she stood a long time gazing at the W with eyes that saw not, for she was buried in thought. A large, white Angora cat came down the walk and rubbed his head against her skirts. As if slowly bringing her thoughts back to the present, she stooped and picked him up, and carrying him under one arm, she slowly made her way to the house and disappeared within doors. It was night and the garden was in darkness, but from three of the windows of the house a soft amber light flowed out and lighted up a small space before each window. Looking into the room one saw first the white-haired lady as she sat in the large A. wicker chair beside the table. At one side of her stood the large One hundred twenty-nine ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 130 ---------- EI KLIPSUNE! amber-shaded reading lamp, and the light fell, as it seemed, with special kindness over the regular wrinkled features as she sat knitting on some socks. Noticing that the light from one of the mantel lamps fell directly on the bird cage, and so kept the little songster from sleep, she arose and turned it off, and picking up a piece of black cloth carefully covered the outside of the cage so as to keep out all the remaining light. Then as she came back to the table, she opened the drawer in it and took out a photograph of a young man. He was dressed in a United States officer's uniform and one could see that he was the woman's son, for he had the same regular features, the piercing eyes and the strong mouth. His face showed courage and character as did the face of the woman who bent over the picture. But in both was the peace that comes with spiritual life, that which most people call " that something." As she looked at the picture the woman's eyes lost their stare and slowly filled with tears, and her face seemed to tremble as if she were suppressing powerful emotion. Blindly she groped for the little Bible that lay near the reading lamp, and propping the picture up so that it faced her, she took the Bible and from out of it she took a letter, postmarked France. With trembling fingers she took the letter out of the envelope and re-read the contents: France, April 16, 1918. To the Dearest Mother: Please don't worry because this letter comes from a hospital, for really I am sure I am not badly hurt, as I have no pain at all. We went "over the top" two days ago and I got along very well, until on the second day a piece of shrapnel got me in the left shoulder. I like the hospital, for everything is clean and every-one kind. One of the head doctors used to be one of my profs. at college, and so I consider myself lucky. By the way, mother, I am sending you a piece of the wild forget-me-not that the nurse brought me. It was very nice of her to do it, for you know how I like flowers. She says that they grow near here wild like the dande-lions do at home. She just came in now and told me I must stop and so I will finish this letter later. W That was all, but as she carefully opened the second sheet, a piece of a dried flower fell into her lap. She picked it up and put it near the picture before she re-read the second letter. France, April 18, 1918. My Dear Madam: I hope this short note will bring a grain of comfort to you in your sorrow. Your son, madam, let me say, was one of the finest young Americans I have ever met. He was a student of mine while at college, but I hadn't seen him for a very long time until he was brought into my ward mortally wounded in the shoulder. He thought it was just a scratch because there was no pain, as we kept him under powerful drugs. He started a letter to you, but the =7 ~Nf- One hundred thirty 'iii tI;i ~_ ~ 2 i ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 131 ---------- KKLIPSUNNi. nurse had him stop before it was finished. Late that night as I was inspecting my patients I found him in a bad condition, but conscious. He said he wanted the ietter, for then for the first time he realized that his time was short. I suggested that he just sign his name,. but he said "No, always, 'with love.' " And that "W " at the end of his letter is all that he was able to do, for his strength gave out. He died shortly after, but he was conscious up to the end, telling me over and over again to write to you. His was a fine spirit. We'buried him in the little cemetery behind the hospital in the officers' plot. As it is customary here, a bunch of forget-me-nots was planted on the mound under the shadow of the little cross. cross. May I close by saying that your son was brave, courageous and noble and that the cause, for which he so gallantly fought and died, will surely be victorious with such men as your son fighting in its defense. Yours very sincerely, MAJOR B. S. BLACK. American Hospital No. 97, France. Slowly the little woman put the letters and the sprig back in the envelope, and picking up the much-worn Bible, she turned to the Twenty-third Psalm and as she read a look of harmony and of reliance filled her face, and when she put the letter and the picture in its place in the drawer she said softly as if to her-self, in a calm, sweet voice, " Thy will be done." Out in the garden the next morning the little blue forget-me- nots of the "W " turned their faces towards the rising sun, and all was peace. One hundred thirty-one ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 132 ---------- IKL IPSUN A Vision SECOND PRIZE POEM WILLIAM EDSON The countless daisies in the fields, Like stars that dot the skies at night, Had strewn the quiet meadow land With twinkling beams of light. And there upon a grassy slope I lay, and scanned the blue above, As if to see if earth or sky Had more of nature's love. So tranquil was the day that soon My eyes were closed in peaceful sleep, And then across my consciousness I felt a vision creep. I looked upon the throbbing world It seemed, and all men gaily went About their tasks as if at play, And all appeared content. But as I watched, the sky grew dull, And far away appeared a cloud Of sable hue and frightful mien, It seemed a ghastly shroud. It grew quite black and terrible, And coming swiftly nearer by, It seemed a mighty genie, who Decreed that men should die. I tried in vain to shriek, as one Will do in dreams, but then I saw That men on earth were not afraid, But merely filled with awe. The young man talked with deep concern, The old man gravely shook his head, And then from every walk of life, No matter where it led, Men mutely dropped their tasks in hand Nor pausing once to look behind, Strode quickly toward the gath'ring cloud Which threatened all mankind. One hundred thirty-two ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 133 ---------- SKL IPSUN N The monster hovered on the earth, And there was little time allowed, But hosts of men marched bravely forth And disappeared within the cloud. I saw that mothers' hearts were torn, And many anguished sweethearts cried, But then behold the cloud grew light, And on the other side I saw a host come marching out Beneath the fading, misty screen, And every man was clad alike In dullish yellow-green. The host of men came marching back. They laughed and joked as if at play, And yet the band seemed not so large As when it marched away. The men took up their tasks again, And all was as it was before - But suddenly the vision ceased. I tried to dream some more, But found that I was wide awake. The birds were singing sweetly still, And there was yet the hum of bees And babbling of the rill. I then arose upon my feet To brush away the grass and flow'rs That hung upon my coat. I felt As if I'd slept for hours. And then I paused, for I beheld I brushed a coat of yellow-green Just like the men had worn within The vision I had seen. But how this vision changed me thus, Or why it had been planned, Or what it meant, or its result I cannot understand. It surely must have been a dream. What else could it have been? But still, there lies that yellow suit Where I have laid it in. Perhaps, at some far distant time, When doubts are gone and spent, I'll better understand the thing, And what it all has meant.

Do you ne'er tire of granting our wishes, Or piercing the dusk with your first gleam of light? All that I wish is a soul like the sunshine That leaves, when departing, a warm, friendly glow; And after the shadows have deepened around me, May I rise with the sunbeams, some brightness to show? Dusk HONORABLE MENTION COMAY CRAVER When the dew is on the rose And the sun to slumber goes, Then a calm is over me,. For the close of day I see. Quiet dusk doth close my eyes And memories of the day arise, Then my heart doth feel a prayer And the breath of God is there. So I feel that He is here And there is naught on earth to fear, But in the twilight He doth stand To guard us sleepers with His hand. And that is why the sweet repose Comes when the dew is on the rose. One hundred thirty-four _ ~ I \ ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 135 ---------- -KLIPSUN Sept. 16-Alas! some of us lose our way!

One hundred forty ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 141 ---------- E KKLIPSU N Among Our Visitors BESS GEARHART MORRISON One of the most delightful evenings of the year was spent November 26, when Mrs. Bess Gearhart Morrison, one of America's distinguished readers in Chautauqua and lyceum work, enter-tained with readings in the auditorium. Mrs. Morrison has had wide experience in lyceum work, and, consequently, knows just how to please her audiences. Her ease of manner, her method of presenting her readings and her selec-tion of subjects on the simple, every-day occurrences of life endear her to all. Every number she gave was enjoyed, but, per-haps, her audience will hold longest memories of " Mirandy Ann," " Under the Christmas Stars," " Old Glory," and last, her real-istic description of " The Old-Fashioned Parlor." CHARLES C. GORST The coming of the "bird man " was hailed with much joy. This was, indeed, one of the rare treats of the year. Mr. Gorst whistled the familiar songs of many of our outdoor friends. This marvelous singing was accompanied by enlarged pastel paintings, and a humorous, picturesque talk on the life and habits of the feathered songsters. His personal experience of birds as he has studied them in the depths of the forest, in meadows, and by sea, lent much to the evening's entertainment. He left with us a new and lasting enthusiasm for the beauty and usefulness of birds, and all went forth giving his slogan, "A bird in the bush is worth two in the hand." STRICKLAND W. GILLILAN Fortunate, indeed, was the Normal to have the privilege of hearing Mr. Gillilan, prominent writer in American magazines, and America's foremost humorist. True to his nature, he gave the spirit of optimism, for the joy and enthusiasm he aroused in his audience in the space of one hour, was really wonderful. Mr. Gillilan left with his hearers a message of cheer, and he pointed out the duty to mankind in performing services of kind-ness and happiness, especially during these days of stress and responsibility. DR. H. H. POWERS Recognized as a nation- wide authority on questions, national and international, because of his extensive study and experience abroad, Dr. H. H. Powers, of Newton, Mass., was able to give some unusually instructive and timely lectures pertaining to the problems confronting the Peace Conference. His five addresses covered these topics: " Punishment and Reparation; How Can Germany Repair the Wrong She Has Done? " "National Resources; the Economic Basis of Nationhood," "The New Nations," " The New Wards," " The League of Nations and Its Sponsors." ---7-.- One hundred forty-one ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 142 ---------- K LPSUNR 4 DR. A. E. WINSHIP It was a pleasure to hear, April 10th, the editor of " The New England Journal of Education," Dr. A. E. Winship, who has, also, won fame as a speaker. His interesting and educational address on "Progress" is deserving of merit. He says that in order to keep pace with the times, when we are moving along at the speed of a century a year, it is imperative to realize the vitality and value of new things. These new things have been brought about chiefly through the war. Perhaps the greatest lessons the war has taught are harmony and co-operation - the building of a true (lemocracy based on the unit of community interests. PRINCESS CATHARINE RADZIWILL Princess Radziwill, a princess of Russian birth, who is con-nected with many of the royal houses of Europe, gave an address on the subject of " Russia; Wherein Lies Her Hope for the Future." Her plea was for her country which has suffered so much at the hands of Germans and spies. She emphasized the immediate need of help, if her country is to be saved. For many years Princess Radziwill has had experience in government affairs in Russia. During her earlier years, she was present many times at the court of Berlin. Consequently, she was well able to speak with authority on her subject. LEOPOLD GODOWSKY Of all the musical programs which the people of Bellingham have had an opportunity to attend, perhaps there is none which compares with the Godowsky concert. On the evening of April 22, the entire school listened with intense interest to this great master of music, who played the piano with wonderful interpre- tation of his selections and with the greatest of ease and grace. Mr. Godowsky is world-faned as a pianist. He has appeared in all great centers of music both in Europe and America, gaining such fame and prominence as has not been surpassed since the time of Liszt. He is, also, a composer of music, and has made important additions to piano music. The Chopin " Sonata " will especially be remembered, for he proved himself capable of producing the effects of that beau-tiful composition most impressively. MAUD POWELL Although not on our lecture course, many of us availed our-selves of the opportunity to hear the noted American violinist, Maud Powell. Her numbers were appreciated highly. We shall never forget those delightful selections, " To Marguerite," " May Night," and her tunes of old folk- songs. She played her program with the sympathetic understanding and faultless technique of a great artist, and made each number of her concert a delightful memory to be treasured in the hearts of those who heard her. This year we have, also, been favored with other interesting musical numbers. The Boston Opera Company, the Ionian Serenaders, the Camp Lewis Military Quartette, and the Pullman Glee Club gave us most enjoyable musical programs. One hundred forty-two ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 143 ---------- KLI PSUN THLhTIC O _- One hundred forty-three ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 144 ---------- KKLIPSUNP Basketball - Men Because most of the Normal students were in the service, Coach Carver could not put a regular basketball team in the field this year. However, after the armistice was signed, a number of husky lads dropped back into school. Nothing daunted by the lack of a school team, they got together and " picked up " a few games with outside teams. Notwithstanding the fact that the team was not really representative of the Normal and that little practice was held, a fine record was made. Those who played are: Bjorlie, Countryman, Broadbent, Barnett, Sherman, Quinn, Whittaker. The following is a record of the games: FAIRHAVEN HIGH 36 - B. S. N. S. 24 On February 11, the boys played a - practice game with the Fairhaven High School team. The Normalites were not in good shape at that time and suffered defeat to the tune of 36-24. LYNDEN SECOND TEAM 24 - B. S. N. S. 26 On February 13, the team journeyed out to Lynden and played a preliminary game to the Lynden-Friday Harbor game. In this game the team showed itself to be somewhat out of con-dition. The first half ended with the score of 20 to 10 in favor of the Normal, but they were unable to keep the pace and as a con-sequence Lynden gained in the second half. However, the Normal team managed to keep the lead and " brought home the bacon." FRIDAY HARBOR 11 - B. S. N. S. 61 While at Lynden, the team from Friday Harbor challenged the Normal, and on February 20 our boys took the trip to Friday Harbor. This game was a regular " walk-away" for the Normal. Every man in the team procured more than his regular allotment of baskets, but it remained for " Chuck " Countryman to top the list with thirteen baskets for a total of twenty-six points. AVON 10 - B. S. N. S. 30 Our third game was played with the Avon team. This team was a combination of Avon and Mount Vernon players, but they were no match for the Normal players, who sent them down to defeat to the tune of 30 to 10. The game was a roughly fought contest, but the Avon guards were unable to prevent Bjorlie and Countryman from cinching five and six baskets, respectively, while the Normal guards kept Avon down to the small number of ten points. One hundred forty-four ---------- Klipsun, 1919 - Page 145 ---------- SKKLIPSUN-LYNDEN 25 - B. S. N. S. 21 March 10 saw the Normal team humbled by the Lynden second team. Over-confidence and the lack of practice were the main factors in the calamity. During the first half the Lynden boys ran rampant over the Normalites, but in the second half the Normal team gained steadily and a few more minutes playing would undoubtedly have reversed the score. LYNDEN 9 - B. S. N. S. 29 The Normal team regained its laurels on March 14 in defeat-ing the Lynden aggregation by the score of 29 to 9. The game was fiercely fought, but the Normalites were out to avenge their previous defeat. Their opponents were bewildered by the Normal team-work, finally succumbing to the aforesaid score. CLASS GAMES Junior players -- Countryman, Marshall, Quinn, Sherman, Warrick, Wolters. Senior players - Alm, Barnett, Bjorlie, Broadbent, Button, Neiswender, Sorensen, Whittaker. The Junior boys won the basketball championship of the school by taking four out of the seven games played. The Seniors opened up strong on January 2 and defeated the Juniors in a practice game 21 to 1. January 31 saw the first game of the series. It was a bitterly fought contest and ended 23 to 20 in favor of the Seniors. After these two victories the Seniors became somewhat over-confident and took a beating on Febiuary 7 by the narrow margin of 25 to 24. On February 18, the Seniors came back and defeated the Juniors 29 to 23. The games now stood 2 to 1 in favor of the Seniors. Things began to warm up, and on the following night the Juniors evened up the series by defeating the Seniors 36 to 21. This game saw Countryman hit his stride from which he was never headed throughout the season. The last two games and the championship went to the Juniors. The scores were 23 to 20 and 23 to 17.

A hard fight the Juniors put up but it was in vain! The first game of the Kline Cup series was played on the afternoon of February 7, 1919. Rooters from both classes were lined up ready to cheer their respective teams to victory. By the end of the first half the Seniors were leading by a score of 8 to 2. The second half saw the Juniors open up with vim, but the Junior forwards were unable to penetrate the Senior defense, while the Senior forwards continued to snare baskets. The final score was 21 to 7. February 18, 1919, saw the girls take the floor to play off the second game of the series. The Juniors were determined to reverse the first score and for the first few minutes of play it seemed as though they were going to accomplish their purpose. But toward the last of the first half the Senior girls took a little spurt and ended the first half with a lead of eight points. The second half was even more bitterly fought than the first. The guards on both teams played with every ounce that was in them. The Seniors were held to three baskets, while the Juniors were only able to ring two. The final score was 20 to 10, in favor of the Seniors. This game determined the winners of the series but, in order that those girls who had turned out regularly might have a chance to earn their letters, a third game was played. The Juniors put up a hard scrap, but the Seniors were again victorious. LETTER GIRLS Seniors -- Newell Rochefort Hamilton Wiel Campbell Forward Forward . . . Center. Side-center . . Guard .

Because of the small num-ber of boys on the team, the turnout was not very large, but with such players as Smith, Reardon and Brewer, who have played for the Normal in past years, there was great hope for a success-ful season. Their first game with Mount Vernon realized this hope, for the score was 3 to 0 in the Normal's favor. Although the game came on Friday and thus no rooters could go from Bellingham, the home team came out splendidly. Brewer held the Mount Vernon players to one hit.

It was not until all returns were in that one could form an opinion as to whether Leo Brewer or Vernon Broad-bent would be elected. The personalities of the two men have won many friends throughout the state. It is rumored that the physical stature of Mr. Brewer probably decided the election, as public opinion has conceived the impres-sion that the office requires a tall gentleman in order to dominate over the teach-ers serving under him. Miss Nita Murphy is to serve as assistant state superintendent. Other items of interest in connection with the election are: (1) The re-election of Hlarry Sorenson as King County Sheriff; (2) elec- tion of State Auditor, Ar-villa Jackel.

STRANGE MAN SCA RES CITIZENS FERNI)ALE - No clue has been found to the iden-tity of a strange man who attempted to look upon the heautiful home scene of three spinsters, Beulah Nel-son, Valentine Newell, and Leona Parlette, by means of that exquisite bay win-dow designed by a well known architect, Alice Kin-near. After leaving the home of the above citizens, th i s mysterious man seriously frightened and thus endan- gered the lives of two bach-elors, living alone. Bot hI gentlemen, Arthur Button and Ernest Kobelt, are at St. Luke's Hospital under the efficient care of D)r. H. C. Mathes and nurse, Mabel I)umas. Both patients are improving.
