The Origin of Thanksgiving
in America
The majority of the people of this
eountry do not realize what Thanksgiving
Day i . \Ye regard it a a day on whfrh
to have a large diuner of Turkey and
\•rauberries, topped off with pie or plum
puddiug, nuts or raisins. In most of our
minds there i a faint hazy idea that the
Jrnlians, a long time ago, ate dinner with
the white men, but very few know the
exact origin of the one holiday of the
year that i. celebrated by all classes of
people.
Thank. giving, in Amerfra, was originally a day deYoted to thankfulne s to God
for the pilgrim ' abundant harve t, but
for time immemorial the European countriPs hav\' had a Thanksgiving day. England's holiday was called the "Harvest
Home Fe tival." \Vhen one hundred and
two Puritans left England and <'ame to
.A merica they were discouraged and homesi<-k. OnP half of the colony died during
that first winter, but the remainder fought
the hardship hraYely. The following au-

turnn t}H' l'l'Ops 0 f \'Ol'll and barley Were
very abundant aud the Pilgrim. r-;ct aside
a few days in • 'ovemlwr to thank God.
Probably the other fift~· would have dic(l
if they had had to spPncl a scl'on<l winter
like the first. The white men and rPcl
llH'll fea tcd together. The Indians taught
t lw white men things about farming while
the white men in turn gaw the Indians
many ideas of England. Games were
played and shooting eontests took place.
The date of Thank gidng is determined
hy the Pre. ident. It is gpnerally on the
last Thur day of • ovemher. \Yashington
i. sned a proclamation ancl from that time
to l 6:~ there wa an O\'('a. ional festinl
hut it was the Civil \Yar whi<-h hrot the
people to a new sense of oneness and
siiwe that time the presirlent has i sued
a proclamation annually. But now the
prodamation is aff Pctive in all parts of
the globe where the U. 8. flag flies; Cuba,
the Phillipines and the Hawaiian Islands.

" - - - - and there on the table was a big turkey
and ever31thing that goes with it. "

for him on Thanksgiving.
'l'h1• days pass1•tl an1l at last .Jimmy's
mother left for the capitol. It was hard
for them both to keep ba1·k the k;u·s.
Jimmy fought like a man aml ii' Mt's.
Brown foun<l it necessary to wipe lwr
c.}'<'s when she \\'as safely ini:;ide the taxi,
110 one was the wiser.
Ti nu• hung heavily 011 Jimmy's han<ls.
When he \ms not in school he \Vas usually
at .\unt 11artha'-. l\lr. Brown spcut most
or his time down town and the goo<l times
that ~\ unt l\Iartha had pt ophesictl \\'ere
very slow iu materialiiing. Susan "asn 't
so competent whl'n Mrs. Brown was not
thel'e to supervisl' her work, an1l e\ erything ecmed to be going from bad to
worse.
It was almost as bad for 11r . Brown at
the capitol. Sh-: was very busy, of 1·011rse.
'!'here \rere alway' appomtruents and social fumtions at which he1· presenc1• was
necessary. She talked suffrage; argueJ
suffrage; and fairly breathed suffrage but
there were always little lapses bet ween
time· \\·hen i:.he thought only of Jimmy,
and :Jlr. Bro\\'n. 'l'he latter, in a 'cry
short letter, had said that Su ·an wanted
a holiday on Thanksgiving an<l. that he
was going to take Jimmy to the hotel for
Llinner. Mrs. Brown had been invited to
the Governor's .l\lansion for Thanksgiving
an<l she could not help but imagine herseli seated at the table feastiug while
Jimmy and his father ate au ordinary
hotel <linner.
lt was the day before Thanksgiving and
Mrs. Brown \\as on her way to the most
important meeting that she had yet attende<l. She was very til'Ctl for she had
been up late the night before an<l \\'hen
she did get to bed she lay awake thinking
of ,Jimmy. Iler !'Onscie11cc was begiuniug
to hurt her.
When she arriwd at the 1nel•ting, Senator Graham was already there. He \YRS
a man of \ddc infiuent e but l.ittt>rly op- ·
posed to suffrage, and :Mrs. Brown felt
that if she could get his vote hel' eau c
was practically won. It was for this r1'a-

son that she wished to appear as <'harming and intl'lligl'ut as possible aud it was
mud1 to her chagrin that she seemed able
to think ouly or Jimmy- .Jimmy in a hotel
on Tha11ksgivi11g day.
Senator Grahalll ha<l com<: fully a1·1111·d
agarnst all argum1·11t and nlrs. Browu
·oon began to feel the 11sdess11css of it
all. 'he argued for almost an· 110111', aud
when she paw·ed at last the Senator st11iled
and aid,
·'Perhaps, l 'm rather old fashione<l
lllrs. Graham. You've given me a d1•arcr
idea of the uffrage question than 1 'v"
ever had before, but I ·till maintain that
a woman's plaee is in her home especially at Thauksgiviug time.''
.Mrs. Brown rose hastily from her chair.
'l'he words seemed to ring iu her ears.
'l'hat was exactly what she ha<l b<'lieve<l
ever in<·e she ha<l come to the 1·apitol.
She had not dare<l a<lmit it even to her·
Sl'lf. ~ 'o\v, she knew it \ras ·o.
'·What time is it 1'' she cried.
The seuator told her.
'' l have misse<l the afternoon train but
if 1 get the one at nine I can get home at
one in the morning.''
.Jlrs. Brown speut the next two hour ·
at the telephone. .Fir t he sent her regret. to the Governor' wife; theu ·ht.:
ordere<l by tdephune, everything nece ·sary to a 'l'hanksgiviug dinner; an<l lastly,
she telephoned to the mother. of all .Jimmy's friends. In her hate lllr . Brown
1mtirely forgot Senator Graham, but when
ti nally she ''as ready for the nine o'clock
train, he wa waiting to take her to the
depot in his car. On tl. · way, he turned
to him to apologize for her haste. But he
woul<l. not hear it.
'' ~ •o apology i uece ary, Mr . Brown;·'
he said. '·I knew all the time that you
must have been very earue: t in your d :ire for . uffra"" t<> b • dra!!!!ed away from
your family at this tirne of the y ar 11
your hurried departure only emph -·z

Thauksgi\'ing day at last!
.Jimmy
opened hi · eyes hut thcr<• wa · 110 mother
there to sar good morning-, as usual! Ile
dimhed out anJ as he dressed thP tears
eame to his eyes more than OJH"l' a he
thought of the lone orne da.v lw wouU
han. But Aunt l.Iartha hatl promised a
surpri e. so 1wrhap: something \\·ould
happen e\ en yet. Of coursl' no matter
what it was it wonl<l not lw so 11icr. as a
party, but lw was a big boy and would
haye to bear it.
Father callll' for Jinnny arnl took him
down to breakfa t. Somehow I e eemed
more eheerfnl than he had any time iil'·e
mother hall goue away. an I the feeling
was contagious. ~\fter brt>akfast Jimmy
was sent ove1· to ~\unt :Jlartha's by way
of the front door. Even slw :eemetl more
<'heufnl than usual.
.\t la ·t it \\·as dimwr tiint• anll .\uut
~Iartha ent hi1n home. Ifr \Wllt in tlw

hig turkry and r.\·erything that goes with
it. Hut lH't t e1· 1lrn 11 all this ,,·as mother l

\\' onls arl' i11aclcquate to desi·rihe tht>
g-1 ediug bl't\\'l' •n ill rs. Brown and .Jimmy. But it will be safe to say that it wa ...
tlll' happiest Thanksgiving Day that either of them had 1·ver spent. Ju the afternoon Jimmy '.vas surpri>ed by the arrival
of ten of his friends who stayed for ·upprr.
.l<'inally whl'n tlw last small boy had
gone an<l Jimmy was fast asleep, :Jlr. and
nlrs. BrO\\'ll sat talking of the evrnts of
the week.
", ·o matter how mu eh I beli<'ve in
\\~oman :Sutfragt'," )[rs. Brown ended,
'·I also belieYe that a woman should spend
ThanksgiYing with her family, but I'm
al' raid the cause i ~ lost for this yea1· at

,\t this moment the t<•lepho11e hell rang.

It was a long distaneP l'all for Mrs. Brown
from Senator Graham.

THANKSGIVING DAY THOUGHTS.
Arthur nlickleson, 'l .
How will some of our e' cry day assot·iates pend Thanksgiving? Of course, we
take it for granted that every one w·ill attend to the religious part of ThanksgiYing
Day but let's think of the fun. Take Mr.
Tremper for a starter: A ride in the Regal
up Park .Avenue ahout five mile an hour.
\\'hile pasiug a group of boys a few surmi c - were heard a to where he puts the
water into the racliator. The ride contiJmes a few miles out into the country
and :\Jr. G. "·. Tremper work up an appetite hy changing two or three tires. Dinner
1ime ! Ifr does full ju tice to the meal.
• ·ow let us think of :\Ii s rel. on. \Y ill
she consi<l<•r all the rules taught in Physiology about over-eating and mastication! Oh, no! She will think of the delightful after-feeling and be thankful
withal.
.Jliss \Y Pston is next. Can you imagine
hPr givi11g a shriek of joy upon getting the
wishbone? Probably you can, but I can't.
[ <·an only see her sitting before a table,
eating-not for enjoyment but for nour-

ishment. Think of it! Nourishment considered. in a Thanksgiving Dinner !
ljct 's try a stude11t or so now. \Yard.
(~uinn will make a delightful subject for
our imaginatious to work on. A <linncr
in proportion to his size·! That's euough
to make anyone envious of him, on that
day in particular .
Marie Doyle will make another fit subPet- a one-armed. attempt.
.Jly, won't
:;he have a grand time trying to keep pace
\rith the others, while handicapped by a
di ·ablc<l wiug. 'l'here are time15 when it
comes in handy to have a stantliug excu15e
on which to go home, but certainly it is a
disadvantage at a 'l'hanksgiving <linner.
l also see E<l. llaubrich stau<ling up at
the table talking. \\'hat he i8 talking
about, l can't imagine. He is probably
mging the assembled guests to refrain
from stretching their capacity.
Dunham .Martin i8 next. Could. we forget him I He is as close to the dispenser
of the Yictuals as he can get. Can you
pi<·ture him elsewhere t He is, uudoubtPdly, also making enough noise for four
of his ·ize.
It pays to advertise.
.:-\ow in contrast is Dunham, let's consider our foot-ball 1ll<'ll. lf ever we envied
them. we don't on thi - <lay. Imagine
tlwm haYing to go without a clelicious turk<'y tlinner in order to \rin the anu ual

Her Two Christmases
I~lsie

};'. Gihbons.

,John Roger \Ya: hOJll<' for Ghristrnas.
It \Yas hi last Christmas Ya<·ation, for next
year at this time he would be at "·ork in
his father's great mauufac:turing plant.
John dicln 't like the id<.>a of settling down
and doing what his father had done. Ik
wanted :omething new .. omething broacl<'r
than t lw r<>n tiu <.> of hu ·in ess 1ifc. ~o it
was with great distastl' that he lward hi.·
father say, one morning about a week lwfore Christmas, '·This morniug. John, I
want to take you throu1d1 the plant. I
want to h<rn you how it has grO\Yn sirn·e
la~t year. HPmemlwr . .John. all that you
are lParning now at <·o11Pge is for the future benefit of the fadory, for some clay
it will he yours.''
The factory was hugc>; it took all
morning to go thru i1. But ~Ir. Rog<•rs
insisted on guiding his son. IIere and
there he would point out something of
whi •h he was espeeially prourl or sornething that hacl to he imprO\'<'<l or rhange<l.
It wa. almost noon whc•n 1 iJpy entered <l
larg<', gloomy room in whi<'11 ahout fHt.'·
girls were \Yorking hnsily.
"This." said ~Ir. Rogers. "is wherp
th<> pac·kages ar<' sral<'<l. Thi1>; room has
the reeorcl for SJH'c>O. I ld th<> girls ulHlt>rstand tl1at if they c-an 't k<>rp the sprc>d
1heir ~rn·i«t>s aren't reqnirecl."
He
l'ag-e Six

paus<'<l and looked at a chart near the
door and frowned. " To. ;37 only has an
avt>rage of 59 a minute."
He \Yalkecl oYer to the chair marked :37.
"Your record is way beluw par. \Ve can't
keep girls here who can't work. The
cashier \Yill haYe your pay envelope reacly
hy the time you get there."
The girl looked up from her work, then
ro e hastily as thC' meaning of the rN•orcls
heeame dear to her.
"You-yon can't mean I'm fired?" sh<>
eried.
"\Yhat else wonlcl I mean~" he asked·
.__ uddenly he caught sight of John
standing by the door. For a seeond she
s1ret<·hed out her hancls to him as if hpseeC'hing hi aid.
he might have been a
eharming girl hacl shr hacl a chanc·e. but
hPr . «raggy hair and the palor of hC'r
dtePkf! and the bright red of her lips macle
her look ghastly. But her eyes hacl retained th<> beauty whirh had been int<>nded
for h<>r; and now as they met John' for
an in tant and he looked into the brown
ones of the girl, he knew that neYer eould
he manage the faetory as his fath r had
clonr. Tlw girl dropped her hands for
f>he soon rPalized that no help could come
from him and shr slowly made h er way
to tlw eloak room. .._Tever had John felt

so inhuman, so in<>ffici<>nt as he did then.
.Just ontsicl' 1h<' door he tnrn<'<l to his
father angrily.
"\Vhy did you <lo that~" hP asked.
~Ir. Rogers laughed; "it's all in the
game, my hoy,'' he said. ''Don't let your
heart run away with your head. By this
time next year you '11 do it, too. Wait here
a minnt<'; 1 rnnst telephone to the cash
i<>r.''
John stepped back to the door of the
room which they had just left. The girl
Jiad on her hat and coat and wa. tallnn~·
to a group of her companions.
''And, I gm•ss it wa my fault. If I
hadn't got my ·walking papers today )
would have some other tim . I couldn't
keep the pace here. The I. . ord only know·
how I'll get along now. But cheer up
girls, it's all in the game.''
'he ha<l
walked lowly out of the room. In the
corridor she almost bump('cl into J obn.
He held a bill towards her and aid :
"I ·want you to know how :orry I am. I
would have tril'cl to prevent it if it would
haw done any good. Take this, it may
i id<' yon over until you get another position."
The brown eyes which had been so appealing, so despairing, now became cold
and hard. She glanced from J olm' fa<'e
to the money in his hand and back to his
face again. Her eye eemed to pierce him
and bring forth all his petty faults and
smallnesses. He knew he was playing the
fool, but wor. e than that he knew that sh0
knew it.
·without taking her eyes from hi · he
reached for th<> money and d.eliberately
tore it in two. "That is what I think oC
you and your money, sir! You speak
lightly of getting another position. And
let me tell you that I couldu 't get anotlwr
job if I hunted from now till doom day.
I've had my try in the factories and [
ran 't keep the pace. "\Vhat good is your
money? It only puts off the end. The
money in my envelope will be all I '11

1wed." For a moment longer the brown
(',\'P· · ]o()kl'd into ,John's mHl tlHm the girl
was gone.

•

•

The next week wa a busy one for the
Hoger family. 'rhey alway made a
great deal of Uhristma · and did a great
deal of entertaining. John wa · the only
one who was not busy. Ile would not go
to the ofli.(·c ·with hi· father and hi· mother
('Ouldn 't make any u'1e of him at home. Ile
"·a ·willing to do anything that wa a.·ke<l,
for he was suffering from a guilty conS(·ience. Anything •va · better than hi ·
own thoughts! He wa never alone fol'
ahvays a pair of steady brown eyes
watched him.
Christmas Eve arrived at la t, but there
was no joy nor Christma ·pirit in John's
heart· Ile spent all hi· time thinking of
the pain and sorrow he would bring to
his father on the morrow •vhen he should
tell him of his cleci ion. During the night
when the other: were asleep John paced
the fioor but not alone for the memory of
the girl wa · always with him.
In the morning he made an attempt at
jollity oYer the opening of the packages.
But his thoughts insi ted upon wandering. Where was the girl nowf 'What
would i'ihe <lo if he had that check which
~Ir. Roger. had given him? -wouldn't he
look stunning in the new ·uit of his ister
Elizabeth 'sf
'udclenly, while unwrapping a package,
Elizabeth stopped hort. 'Oh," she cried,
'·I forgot to deliver my hristma ba ket'
to the poor. John, "·on 't you do it for
me. I ('an 't break away from all thi . ''
He assented willingly; anything was
hetter than being inactive and be ide he
might pos ibly see the girl whom he had
seen at the factory. In a few minutes th()
big ('ar "·a. at the door and ·everal ba kets of food and clothing were piled into
the back seat.

The snowy streets were free from traffic so the car 'ped quickly thru the btuiilH's- .·treeh ancl at last into the slum .

hated all the sorrow and suffering that
he _·a \L If he had ·cen the girl he might

The rays from the hri. tmas un , hone in
thru the tiny window. In one corner was
a (·11phoard, on a stand there was a ga.

~he moved slightly and began to talk and
,John knew that she wa waking from

'·Oh, why couldn't I ha\"(' gone then

"\Yha t are you doing here!" she cried.

THANKSGIVING DAY GAME.

or two. The other llll'mbers of the s4_uad
were, B. Rhenstrom, who had learned football while playing with Wayland Academy, and Leclin and De Cou, ·who were
shunted onto the fir t squad late in the
sea ·on, because of their good work on the
second team. The, experience which the ·e
fellows had gained <luring the last year or
two, was a wonderful help in the organi1.ation of the team, ancl should be an 1int·entiYc to all prospective candidates for
a place on the first team to >.tart early in
their high school, cour ·e and gain some expPrienl'e. This ean be done by playing on
the se!'ond team a year or two until they
get their ehance to make good.

"1·ar1·l·ly any time was taken out for
hruis1·s and injuries due to poor condit iu11. Captain 8ehu.ell, llammon<l and

of the team, were big cogs in its offensi Ye

School Spirit
~khool spirit is the life of a school. 'I'hr
quPstion is whether Kt>nosha IIi"h B<'hool
has any life or not, and if not, what ean
we do to make it have life.

\\' e will take it for granted that l'nry
stud<>nt wants a live sehool. The onl.r
way to ha \'l' a li ,.e sehool is for ea<-11 Olll'
to do his part and eo-operate with one
another. But the stn<lent may ask, "\\'hat
can I do to ·h<~w that I haYe sl'hool
pirit?" Th<' answl'r is .inst this, hoost
<'n'rything worthy of K. II. ~. and don ·1
kwwk. If you have any just criticism
the E<·ho lkpartm<>nt of 1'IIE SPY will
\\·pfrome it. Tlw High Sehool was founded
for ym1r lwnpfit a11d th<'ll to show your
app1·p<·iatio11 of it you kno<·k the k<H·her.-;
and tlw Sl'hool 011 any n• traint, and r1·f'11sP
to <·orne out to the ha~k<>t hall gam<'s or th<'
d<>hat<·s. Is this giving the sdwol or yo11rsel\'es a sq11are deal? Bmphati<·all.v no!
.Tust g-i\·e s<·hool spirit a tryout a11d yo11
will find that the more enthusiasm :''011 p11t

not a true story. They say it is bad form
to start a story with a di dosing statement, but my conscience forces me to tell
yon-that I am lying.
\\'hen George Wa ·hington was a young
lllan, iwrhaps twenty or twenty-one, he
was au undH-offi<-er in Port Pitt. The
young coloni. t had fought bravely in the
Indian \Vars and as a re ult thi · honourable po ition was allowed him.
\Yashington was quite a friend of the
commander of the garri. on, (we'll call him
Stevens). One day Stevens and Washington met near the chapel.
''Oh, I say, George,'' remarked Stevens,
"I've got a job for you. It i my duty
to have some of the ncwe t recruit trained
in Bible history. I know you are a good
churdunan and study your Bible, hence
you shall have the honor of instructing
the c men. ... ext Sunday morning a cla
of fifty of the brave. t recruit will be
waiting to hear you give a lrcture on the
\Y anderings of Mose . "
"But, .-1r, "·hy- 1 -er-I harllly think

l could manage it, the reeruits are very
hoisterous and they would absolutely refu c to listen to any lecturi', especially
Bible history," Washington replied.
"I have confidence in you. If you wish
to lo. e my friendship and your honor by
rpfusing to do your <lut,v. you may. I.mt if
you are half the man I think you are you '11
hr on hand next Sunday.''
· · ~ir, if I mu. t. I must. I hall rertainly
be presrnt, prepared for my work nnday.' · And with a salnte the yonuO' man
turned away.

landlord and his more genial wine.
One 'aturday evening, evcral young
frllow were gathered about the fire-place.
Th<' logs were burning with a lively sort of
blaz<' and the pipes puffed a· frequently
as the sparks crackled.
"I hPar that young Washington is to
giYe us a lecture on how to be goodie ,

'·Huh," said anotlwr, "the saint, he

" What d 'ye mean?"
·' \Yhy, it's imple enough; the landlord
has five or ix hunting hounds. \Ve could

all agrerd to (•arry out the pla11. The dogs
were rented. the a si taut hired, and ev<>rything prepared.
Sunday morning was c·old and dreary
and the little c·haprl wherP religion. meetings were held was quite <'hilly. \Yashington wa. · at his post on tirne and ready to
giw his talk. After nrnl'h shambling effect and growling th<• men took their
places. \Yashington hegan his story and
l'VPrything wrnt fine for a time. 'rhe men
list<'U<'d intently and some of them serme<l
almost interested.

'uddenly, a noise of great rattling and
whines were heard at the Pntraiwr. 'I'he
cloor flew open and five huge hunting dogs
were thrust in. The bewildered beasts
ran around the room baying and sl·ratl·hing for a place to get out. Tlw men all
laughed and some made pretendrd attempts to catch the dogs hut fell over thP
furniture making the hub-huh still wor l'.
ln tlw middle of this mix up, youni:
Washington rose and 1rntting his hands
to his mouth issued a loud, shrill whistle.
The dogs halted, looked at tlw perprtrator
of the sound and merkly ran to him. Ht>
spoke a few har h words to th<' beast. and
getting down from thr platform, led the
di. turbers to the door. This Jw opened
and ordered the dogs to rnakp tracks for

The other fellow laughrd.
"\Vhy that's simplP encrngh," hr said.
"Young Washington goe out hunting two

"lwn the timr (·ame, he m rely employed

~\Jld now. kind reader, my poor tale is

To the family occupying the house ou
the outskirts of the little outlwrn town
of \'andalia. their Yankee Yisitor sel'med
rather glum. And, to tell the truth, if Wt'
t'ollowe1l the thou(J'hts of young Dan l<'oster as he sat at the window and glowl'red
out at the froz1•n prairie, we ·w ould admit
that he had a right to be as glum as he
pleased. He kne"· well enough that
beyond the horizon lay the same white
dPSPrt; he knew this because he ha<l ju.t
<·ome oYer two hundred mile · of it, 011
horseba!'lc
There were few roads in northern lllinois in 1 ~;37, and the man who made a
January journey over its wind-swept
pra1r1es a. ht• had done, generally had
1·nongh of journeying to last him all winter. But Dan had come all the way from
Uhieago, to find a long lo t uncle who, he
had !ward. Jwl<l a minor govPrlllll!'llt job at
\'audalia, the state capital, and now . ome
ha1·kwoods lawmaker had pulled the wires
to have the capital moved to another
to\Vll. Capital, uncle and all had been
whisked away to Springfield, sixty mill's
to the northwest, while he had been on the
way to Vandalia, and it wa tlw thought
of tho e sixty miles of C'old and solitmllthat macle Dan feel so glum.
His attention wa at la t attral'ted by
the sight of a horseman passing along the

road that wound uorthweflt over the
prairies to 'pringfield, and he felt his
gron1·h passing away in his enjoyml'11t of
this spec·tac·le. The horse was large, hnt
its rid<'t' \\'llS so tall that his sle1•1l Sl'Pllll'd
mlwh smaller than the average. The rider's
11osP was larg<'; from all that Dan l'Onhl
see 0 r his face it was one of the honwlfrst
lw had ever met with, and there seeml'd to
he no tlonht that here "·a. th<' most awk"·arcl ridi>r in th!' 1·ountry. Dan 1·h1·erl'd
np so nrn«h at the pasfling of this strangt'
1·avalicr that he smiled for the fir t tiine
in weeks.
''~fr. Harris.'' he aflked of hi. ho t, ''has
fchahod Crane moved to Illinois?"
Harri." took his pipe from his month ancl
looked at the farthest cornH of thP <'eiling.
''Crane, C'rane, '' he drawh'd, pondering

Dan took a at C'loser to th<> fir!'.
'· \Yhat did you say was the name of
that fellow who diangp1l tlw 1·apital to
~pringfiel<l ~'' he inquired.
"Ahe I,irwoln," said HarriR.
Dan took ont a notehook and pnt clown
·'A. Blinken.''

··A ntl this A. Blinken is the same wondn worker who c-almly sticks a State

the wind.ow again.

at the lanJseape. Ile "ba wleJ out" the
world in general and _,\. Blinkeu in part ic·ular. aft<'l' whi<·h he W<'Ht to bed.
Dan packed all hi. traveling goods early
the next moruiug, bundled up warmly,
took lcaYe of the Harrises, and started
out 011 the ride over the prairies to Springfit>ld. ~\s he knew would happen, judging
frnrn hi. rec<'nt experience, he had no

It Takes an Irishman!
Ali1·e Kirk, '16.

Fehruary had come again antl with it
that clay of all days, the day when yon

of tl11•111, thru the appropriatP a11d altogether proper means of a comic Valentine.
But a comic valentine was about the far
t lwst thing from ~like ~I urray ':; mind, fo1
that particular individual's heart and
hopes were both deeply concerned in a
poem which he wa endeavoring to eompose.
The circum tances which led up to this
particular undertaking were unusual, but
to Mike they were some of the most important events of his life. For two years
he had faithfully wooed his Kathleen,
going to see her, as he himself e.·pressed
it, '• nigh on to once a month be gorry.''
lt had all happened one night in the moonlight, Kathleen had been unusually alluring, and .Mike had popped the que. tion.
He afterward congratulated himself that
1t war:; over with and then r:;ettled back
in his chair with the happy feeling that
he deserved merit for those who <lo tl11·ir
duty. Ile waited patiently to hear thor:;e
\\·ords whieh he felt r:;urc would be forthcommg, but what was hir:; surprise when
he was informed by the loving Kathleen
that she had fully made up her mind before leaving the ''Auld Sod'' that she
would marry no other than a real poet.
Full of amazl'mcnt and forebo<li11~:;,
~like hurried home. He was sure that he
was not a born poet but he was quite
optimistic again when he remembered that
there was a book on his top shelf that he

Holidays.
To TIIB 'PY:
Upon consulting that most worthv authority-~lr. \Veb ter~l find 1his clefiuition of the word holiday,-'' a clay or time
of recr 'ation ; a clay of exempt ion from
work.'' Is it thus in our High 'chool Y
\ot at all.
Often hd"ore t hl' C'hristrnas nwation.

ent vacation, a teacher, when assigni11g a
11·sso11 has 1II is to say, "Let Ill<' sec, oh yes.
~Oll haVl' four days to yourseh"l' ·.

Jes ou over your val'ation. You have sufficient time and beside. you are behinu i11

th1· 1·om11ia1Hl and insfra<l of using th,.ir
holidays for recreation, they use them in
order to do regular or back work. ~row
the teacher has probably been forced to
give long lessons in order to (•omplete her
i>diedule. This year, however, vacations
are shorter than ever before an<l eon. eq1w11tly, \\ 1• havl' rnorp working ti11w. It
eertainly appears possible that ·we eoultl
1·on'r th<' ground in the allotted tinw, \\·it 11out destroying our holiclays.
Then, too, we have a sl'hool paper which
need our attention. If ome pupil i ·
\l"illiug enough and euergetit· e11ou~d1 to
u ·e his recreation time in orcler to \Hite
articles for thi paper, hould he be hindere<l by being forced to do regular ·cl1ool
work Y Occasionally I have written article for THE SPY, but on each occasion
I have taken time from my regular tu<ly
period. And why? Because I have no
othe1; time, all time eem to be study time.
If the teachers intend to load u · down
with work during vacations, how are ·we
to keep up chool activities Y True, they
have existed in the past. But may I ask,
0

how? .Allow us more time for activities
and note the differeneP. Should we not
aim to iswe a greater and better SPY aJI
the time I firmly believe that if a regulation were passed requesti11g teachers to
forget a sigmueuts over vacations our a(·tivitie woul<l take an immediate leap for
the better.
In this I do not desire to be a kicker or
fault fincler. If I understand thi · department right, it aim to get ugge tion from
the stuclent body that will make for a better ancl bigger K. II. S. in all ways. I

To TllE 'PY:
I wish through thi departmt>nt to bring
to th<' attention of the student body a mat
tl'r whi<'h should interest ead1 and every
K. II. ~. student. It i · the need of a
hmeh room a need which ha. long been
talked about. I believe that the tatement
of a frw definitr reason "·hy we honld
haw it would not lw out of place.
\\'p all understand that the l)lan. of our
future• new high . ehool will indude a
lund1 rnom in its final equipment; but th<·
point is why wait. until we build a new
high '-whool-why not have it and enjoy it.

110 r<·ason \Yhy it honld cost a great deal
to haYe lunches sold to onr studl'nts. The
nrntHial. l'Onld be bought at ('Ost price
and the dome. tic .·cienc:e rooms would
sen·p well enough as lunch rooms tor tlw
boys and girls. The only serious it<•m of'
<>xpe11se would be that of management,
hut many high schools solve thi by placing the doml'. tie st·ience department in
<·harg<'. The stndPnts in that department
plan !undies, and then hire ·w omen to do
the work under their supervi.·ion. In a
<·ertain high sthool two girl.· from the adYilll<'('<l class do the planning and upervising for a period of two week., and each
girl in thP <'las must act in this <•apacity
hdore sh<' ean reeeive ereclit in the course.
~o much for the expense; now what are
thr advantages?

Pnt:I' Twl'nty-Two

would patronize it rather than some downtown <·a11dy kitchen. A great man.\ town

would prefer a hot lunch at a nominal

rainy days every one feels tlw lal'k of a
t·onvenient and adequate lunch room.
\'ery fe,v of the tudent · care to go home
in the rain, and even the t<'achers would
appreciate lunch at Sl'hool. I write this
with a view of arou;;ing enthusiasm and
desire for lunc:he erved in the building,
a11d if the law of supply and demand is
still operative, we must eventually get
what we want.

The Randolph Case
Adrian Doruhush, 'l '.
''Come along, Billy, I '11 hlow you for
lH•ans and l '11 tt>ll you of my experienc<•s
\\·hilc yon were at the Fair. • 'ow don't
get nt>rYous, I'm paying. Oh, waiter,
<louhle the onl('r. ~\Jl right, Bill, now for
the story.
"You remc•mlwr reading ahont the hl<rn·ups around here, don't yon? \Yell, to
break the susp<'llS<', I 'Jl tell you that
thl're 's where l ~tarn•cl iu thP detediYe
stuff and made a moclest rakeoff of fifty
thousand. There, there, don't take it as
had a all that. Ilen', wait('r, mor<' water
please. All ready for the story now.
"All the manufacturers went up in th~
air when tlwy saw that the teel mills of
the Randolph Corporation had been the
last victim of the fire bug · by being blown
to smithereens. Y' understand, Billy, the
thing that scared 'em was that it was the
third blow-up within one week. The fact
is, they got so scared, that before they
knew it they had offered the young fortune of fifty thou and dollars in cold cash
to the guy who would solve the mystery.
,,~ell, Billy, seeing as how I considered
my ·elf something of a blood hound, I decided to try my luck.
'' l\Iy :first duty was to take a visit to
the ex-:tecl mills which had been about
Pa~e

Four

four mile's from town and about a half
block from the interurban line. I can't
say mneh about the ruin· except that the)
were the most ruined ruins I have ever
seen.
'' .J1y next point of interest, Billy, is
the nld Chester nlani-;ion. Seeing as how
you 're not ac<1uaintecl with it, I '11 put you
wi e, alt ho' my descriptive powers arc limited. Oh yes, Billy, my active vocahular,\'
is inexplicably extensiYe,-now don't get
seared,-! won't say it again.
"'Yell, getting back to the mansion. It';;
one of those colonial things, you know,
big pillars, . qnare and ma sive, three stories high, and on a hill surrounded by tall
pine. . On the roof there was a little lookout, a little room "·ith many windows. It
is said that one could see the country for
miles around from it. The hou e is huilt
about a half bloek from the interurban
depot.
"As the cars came to a top at the Hanclolph Junction, a mile from the mills, my
eye was attracted to this old villa. You
see, Billy, it had been empty for a number
of years and, naturally, it had fallen into
a state of neglect; but, now, I could see
that all of the shutters were repaired and,
furthermore, they were all clo ed tightly.

A garagP hall also hecn built to,rnrd the
rl'ar and a large automobile stood on the
driwway. Those were all the signs of
habitation aho11t the pla<'l' \\·ith the
('Xeeption that
tht'
huilclings
had
hl'<'H win•cl.
• ow, the thing that
strut"k me c1ueer, my boy, was,
why should rwoplc of means (for evidently
the car that stood on the' driYeway was
theirs, othen\'ise what would he the use
of the garage) l"OOp themselns up in an
old clilapilhtil'cl house with all the windo,Ys
shuttl'red and in a sooty fac-tory burg,when there we're hundreds of bett<T plat"e
waiting alo11g East Drin and. ·orth Shore
Avenue.
"The ear:-; then mnvPd on and I clismissPd the pietun· from my mind.
''The next morning, after a row with
my lo\·ing landlady ahont Rome peenniary
matters regarding my rent, I left for St.
,Joseph's Hospital on 'l'hird Htreet, "·here
the only sur\'ivor of" the explosion was
snffrring from an at"ute attack of broken
rib:-;, arms, legs aud head. \Yhen I came
he hall just survived from a still more
strenuous attac•k of newspaper r<'porters.
Yon lwt hl· 'va-> ghul to S<'r a human at
last.
You Sl'C, Billy, 1 wanted to talk
to sonwhody that saw the explosion. Oi'
cour.-e, tlw newspapl'rs were foll of it, hut,
as usual. it was nothing more than a long
line of hot air, wild throril'S and statements, lll('re piguwuts of illustrious imaginations of reporter:-;. I told the guard,who, hy thl• 'my, introdu(·l'd himself a
illoran,-all he n0c>dell to know. Ile, in
turn, with a hurst of ccmfidenl'e saicl, 'Sec
hcrl', my hoy, if you "·ant to hl·ar sonwthing that no one has dreamed of let me
tell you that no bomhs ever (•nterccl that
!"a dory-rays <licl the job.'
·'~\light snddl'nly daw1w(l 11pon me and
in a minute I was out of tlw hospital and
running to the tkpot. I ran and ran and
if my wind hadn't ginn out, I do believe
I would have hrcn r0moved to a retrl'at for
the foolish, a nut emporium if you please,

beeause a few Johnnie. were already following my footsteps.
''Gradually I came to my senses and I
deeided that it was the wisest plan for nw
to turn homeward and quietly think it
oYer. So I dimhetl up noiselessly to my
third fioor baek, hoping that I would he w1noticed by my landlady, but no . ueh luek
was mine. ~Taught CYer e. t"aped her ('agle
eye and now that same eye looked daggers
at mt'. After sweeping the room \\·ith
a glance, that wonderful orhit frozl'
me at a glance and in an equally frigicl
rniec asked about my over-due rent. ·w hen
I 'ms ufficiently thawed out, I told her
that tomorrow would be the last day that
she would go rentless. At la t slw t"Ollsented to this and with a final witheriug
lcok he left me.
"This little couYersation spurred me on
all the more. At eight o 'cloek that ewning I was at the interurban depot and
twenty minutes latl'l' I stcp1)('d on thl' platform at Randolph J unetion. I reached the
house hy way of the fields and waitPd in
the shadow of the garage for the lwlls to
~trike ni1w.
.:\franwhile, l mad(' a frw
ohi-wnations. Pirst I saw that it was not
guar<lell, second that the ouly room lightl'd
'ms the library or parlor.
''On the stroke of niup l t"rcpt to tht>
lighted window, lifted the slats of the
shutters and aw three mPn bending oYer
~\ largr tahll', some t"hail's
a map.
and an empty book ·helf eomprised tlw
furnishings of the room. !<'earing dcteetiou I hurriedly eloscd the slats and walked around the house to S<'e if I l"Ould
find anything else that might iutl·rl'st me.
Fiuding nothing, I crept back into thr
shadows of the pine's, for the moon now
came out from hehind the c-1011cls arnl
everything 'rn quite light. l!'or the first
time in the evening, Billy, I began to fel·l
crePpy, everything wa: so still and
ghostly, but rcmemhcring my little interview with the landlady, I dctermi1H'cl to
see tlw affair thrn to the end.

''As I at there pondering on my next
move, I ·aw that the light in the library
had lli. appeared. I waited for someone to come out and kill nw, hut
nothing happened. I was about to leave,
when, suddenly, I saw a light in the little
lookout. All the blind were drawn tight
and on them I could see the shadows of
nwn moving about. Altho' I could make
out nothing of their movement , I knew
that something interesting was going on
·in that room. I went around the house to
see if there was any way of gaining the
roof. l\Iy luck was with me, for on the
south ide of the house a tall pine grew
near to the hou c, its topmo ·t branches
spreading over the roof. The tree was
easy to climb, but when I was ready to
step out upon the roof, to my disappointment, the light went out. When I thot all
was safe I gathered enough courage to inve tigate my surroundings.
"On the shadowy side, the son th side,
I found a loophole about the size of a football. I concluded that this wa the place
I wa ·after.
''The room was flooded with moonlight
for the roof of the lookout wa mostly of
glass, thru which I could see a large
dynamo, many coil. and some mechanism
that I knew nothing of, which included a
telescopic arrangement that pointed diredly into my face.
"I hurriedly descended to terra firma
and ran to the depot as fast as my legs
could carry me.
After rapping on the
door for about fifteen minutes the sleepy
station master came to the door in cap
and gown and asked me what I wanted.
·without waiting for an answer he told
me that there were no more trains until
morning. After a ten minute argument
he allowed me to use the phone.
"I gave the signal to the drsk srrgeant,
for you sec, I had already madr arrangements with the police before I went on
my IDISSlOll. It was not long heforc r
heard the . ound of their antiquated, ourPag~ ~i"

lunged automobile. Old ergeant Donoprn g"l'l'l'il'd me with a (·h1·Pry, 'llow's tlu·
hoy!' \\'ithout more ado "·e cautiously
madr our way to the old hons<' which now
lookl'd more forlorn than l'Yer.
Ou
our wa.\' to the hon ·p l told the sergpant what I had seen and heard.
''When we arrived we stationed the men
a1'0lmd the house in such a way that no
one c-ould come out of the housr without
being seen. Thi having been done thP
sergeant an<l I, without further delay, pro<'<'edccl to climb the tree.
"\Ve were about to step out upon tlH·
roof when the light was switched on in
the little room not fifty feet away from
where we were in the shadow of the pinr.
\Y <' sat there a moment undecided, for, you
see, Billy, our plans had been lo t by this
occurrence. ·we had planned to force
entrance from the top and then drive the
oC'cupants out so that they would fall into
the hands of the police below. \Vell, I was
just about ready to dash out upon the roof
when the sergeant held me back and pointed to the little loophole I ha<l looked thru
earlier in the evening. Slowly the telccopic arrangement swung out, pointing
due south. I knew instantly that if we
did not interfere that moment another
explosion would take place somewhere to
the south. I realized, too, that it was
our duty to stop it. But how? 1\Iy eye
then fell on the sergeant w·ho was scraping
the insulation off the wires that led to the
lookout. Then he crossed them. A second
of breathless su. pense ! It seemed unnatural, still and ghostlike; the wind had
long died down and the moon was hidden behind l'louds. .Another half minute
passed hy. Then I saw on the window
shade the shadow of a man reaching for
som<'thing. Tlwn a flash, a crash and I
started to run. Suddenly I felt a tinging
pain in the back of my head and then,all was dark.
·
''I woke up with my head harnlaged aud
with a had heaclachP. At fir t I was dazed,

hut latpr I remrmlwrcd all. I was
in the hospital. I learned that a hoartl
had struck my hl'ad and had madP me unconscious. I would have burned up but
for my friend, the sergeant, who had carried me down the tree. I was told that I
''"ould he ahlc> to leave in a day. ·with
that assurance I foll asleep from slwer

and all night,-waking up the next morning almost starved. After eating an enormous breakfast, the nurse brought me the
papers of that morning and of the morning before. They were full of the event.
They had even had a long interview with
me, Billy, quoting things I never dreanwd
of. I must have talked in my sleep.
''I don't want to bother you with every-

thing that happened that day, the newspapl'r rPporters, etc. But to make a long

A Diary
C. A. Rominger, '16.
This story has no moral. It was not
written to accomplish some great reform.
I say this to keep any poor student from
trying to find one. Furthermore, there
is no setting. There is no climax. It is
simply a copy of an album or an almanac
or a Diary. I always get th('SC thing,;
mixed up. This Diary was found in the
hip-pocket of a Successful l\Ian who was
found dead in our neighbor's back yard
the other day. I am not going to put in
the dates because I don't like to write
them out and abbreviations are Ronwtimrs
ambiguou . The Diary began in the following manner:
IIow to achieve Success! By imitating
the example of some great man or by following his advice. Ilow well I have succeeded by the use of the method given
above you may judge by what I relate
below.
I would have liked to have been born
in a log cabin like Lincoln but I did not

have the management of this event so I
could not have it arranged to suit myself.
\Yhen I was twelve years old I took a
hatchet in hand and sallied forth to cut
clown a cherry tree, but I could not find
one so I cut down a fence post in tead. I
waited half a day for some one to give
me a chance to show my unimpeachable
veracity but no one came near. I finally
went home.
George Washington may
have been a great man but he is too hard
to imitate.
I now decided to be a savant ·peeializing
in phy ics, the kind where you learn ahont
Archimedes Principle. I drcided to imitate
Kewton, so I went out and sat under an
apple tre. I did this every day for about
a month but it must have been winter time
for I never could get an apple to fall on
my head. Pinally, I hit on a most dazzling
brilliant scheme. I hired a boy for 39-3/7c
a clay to drop apples on my head but even

t ht•n J eoul<ln 't <liseowr the principle of
falling bodies so l deciLled that I would
nenr become great in physic .
I remembered that Emer on said that
you woultl rl'Cl'i Ye due compensation for
everything you mi sed so I went to a railway terminal and sat and missed trains
for a year antl three days. The eompcnsation I got was due all right but it wa ·n 't
c•xactly \\'hat I expected, I must admit,
when the porter kicked m' out lwcau ·e
l absorbed too nrneh heat. I have always
l'Xplaincd my lack of suc:ce ·.· in thi, line
as being due to an absence of time in
"·hieh to complete my experiment. I resolved to gin~ Emcn;ou one more trial so
I took all the money I had saYed up and
threw it into the riwr. I reasoned that
l would get it all baC'k and bt'comc grPat,
too, for Emerson says that you always
get out of a thing PXactly what yon put
into it.
But I belieYc now that he had
IH'Ycr tried it and was only theorizing.
The nr.·t clcYation to whil'h I aspired
\\"as to lw a great orator. I picked out
Demosthenes for my model. I went down
hy the lake, filkd my month with pchhlPs
:intl tlwu starte<l, ''O peac<'ful <·gg, I <·ra<'k
thy hald \\·hitc C'o1wh ! "
But when I opened my month to ay
something the stones got bct\veen my jaws
arnl hy the time I gut to l'Onl'h I didn't ha\'l'
rnough frdh left to eat a soft-boiled egg.
I ckcicled I had had praetice enough so I
went to a preacher friend of mine ancl got
his permission to give the 11rxt f1111pral
oration. Pinally, a funeral t·ame aloug,
The subjcl't was not ycry intrresting and
inspiring but \\·hen I thot of Mark
Anthony's hackrd up specimen of a corps<',
I felt .-omewbat encouraged. But the
Fates had decided that oratory was not
my hright and shi11ing light for the only
one at th is funeral was th<· gra Ye cliggrr
and he wa deaf.
"Text was the grPat field of the drama.

Of cour ·c I must follow i11 the footsteps

of thr king of literaturt', the man with a
'ocabulary of l 6,000 words, Sha kt» ]>care.
So I Wl'nt out and tried to poach some
deer. But they had all migratPtl ea.·t.
What should J do. How could I be lih
• hakespearc unless I could poach somP
<leer and how C'ould I poal'l1 tlw deer or
eYen harhecue them unless I had some to
be poached? I trudged wearily home thru
the gloaming \vith my rifle over my shoulder. The sun wa ju.t descending under
the brow of the western hills. An owl
hooh'tl.
All at once I heard a crashing
in tlw underbrush. I stoo1w<l, lookPd, and
listened! 'I'hen I crept stealthily toward
the noise. Peeri11g thrn the bm;hcs with
a thorn scratching my neck, I managed to
c·atch a glimp. c of a large dark animal
with horns. ''Herl' 's where I gl't my
cker ! '' thot I, allll <p1ick as thot, I lewlc<l
my trusty rifle and another animal hit
the du ·t. \Yith llllH.:h diffieulty I reached
my quarry, and stooping down I managed
to makl' out a neighbor Jones' <:ow hreathing her last with a lrnlll't thru her hoof.
, 'he must haY<' hl'en a t·lost> rrlatiYP pf'

\YPll, I 1hot a 1•ow ought to tlo, hP<·a11sl'

An Imaginary Trip to California
Cht·stt•t· EisP11ha1111,
Wheu I "\\'ellt to California I went

<·otild S<'c how the canal lookt•<l.
So I started from Kenosha at twn
o'do('k ,January the first and in about
three days I landed at Buffalo, i Tew
York. There we got off and looked
around awhile. On our way to Buffalo I
saw a lot of sheep and other cattle. Jn
Buffalo I saw a big iron manufacturing
plant. I think it i · one of the higgest in
the world. Then we got on a hoat at
Buffalo harbor, whieh is one of the biggest harbors on the Great T1akes, ancl went
up the lake to Eric city. Eric city has a
population of ahont 66,525. There 'vc
got on a boat at the Eric Canal and we
went up the Canal to tlw liu<h-011 l{i\'('I',
then down the Hudson River to Brooklyn.
'l'he greatest o.f all things I saw t h<'re was
the Brooklyn Bridge which is the second
largest bridge in the "·orlcl. 'I h<'re we got
off the hoat awhile to look a1·01111<l.
Brooklyn is a great city, there arP about
three hundred churches alone arnl there
is a beautiful park <'allcd Pros1wd Parle
Brooklyn is yery busy now because this

\Y c stayed in Cuba about a day and then
we took a boat down to the Panama

BOOST THE ANNUAL!
TIH' prospect
for Kn1osha Ilicrh
Sehool \ fifth annual SPY are bright and
horwful. The staff is bc11di11g every effort
to publishing a "ork wliil'h in quantity
is to he the greate. t and in quality the
lw t. Por practieally three months THE
SPY has been devoting all of its time to
planning an!l exceuting it plans for the
biggest and the best annual that has ever
been prcsrnted to the student body for
its apprel·iation and approval. .\t thi'
time all of the neccs ary pictures have
been !>llplied and arc ncrn in tlw lH'O<·ess of
being engraved, hut most of the literary
work ifi still in thr writing.
rvertheless,
all of the eompiled work, pictures and
literature, \vill be in the hands of the publishers hy May 1, and on Jnne 10 the
finished product will be offered for Ralc.
\Ye take it for granted that cwry member of the student body desires an annual.
IY e also take it for granfrd that each and
<'\'Cry student is willing to a~si t us in this
undertaking. I.Jct us see how this can be
clone. In attempting to make the annual
a brilliant triumph we mu.t first solve
three problems. Their solution depend
entirrly upon the stucll'nt body.
The ·e
prohlems arc: (1) the compiling of the
material, (2) the financing of tlw production, and (3) the sale of the C'opies. In
their solution THE PY nerds all the
help and co-operation that can possibly

he givrn it. In reference to the first it is
self-evident that the staff can not attempt
to write all of the literature which will go
to fill the colnnrns of the annual. Even
were it possible, it would be unfair and
unreasonable to expect it, for TIIE SPY is
the school paper of K. II. S. and all must
support it ancl . hare its success. It i a
demol'ratic, not an autocratic organ of
our school. Then, students, if you arc
askrd to "·rite a story or a poem do it
willingly.
Do it with the feeling that
you are doing your duty and that you arc
helping to make your school paper a
ucce. s.
.\s your dutiful .·en-ants the staff ha,;
often heard the students remark and wonckr 'd1y THE SPY carries advertisements.
Its rea ·on is obvious when we consider
that the adverti er finance our production. Thruout the year they stand back
of every one of our issurs and make them
possible. ·without thrir financ•ial aid we
could not hope to ucceed. Their advertisemc•nts, therefore, are imperative to the
existcrn:c of TIIE SPY. Bccau e of this
it is evident and imperative that the
. tuclent body tand back of our advertisers. ''Every good turn deserves another.'' ·why not patronize the advertisers~ Why not play square? The amount
of monry realized monthly from our ads
will have to be qnadruplrd for the annual.
This can be done only with the assistance
of the studrnt hody. Show your appreciation and faith in our advertisers by
patronizing them and hy mrntioning the
fad that you saw th<'ir a<l in 'l'IIE SPY
and that you are a K. H. R. student. .Will
you do your share?
Exrwding an unusual large sale of
annuals this year the management will
have 00 or more copies printed by the
pu hlishcrs. But altho' this large sale is
expected there is no reason to believe that
our expectations will be realized without
the support of the student body. The
manner in which you will personally give

(•videnee of this aicl i'> by hc'l'Omi11g an
ad\'ertis('r for 'l'llE SPY, your S(·hool
paper, and Kenosha High Hl'hool. When
the proper time arrives Tllg HPY will
stage one of its efficient class contests
in order to make the sale of the amlllals
a big success. In thi competition •very
student will haYe an opportunity to give
evidence of his support ancl co-operation.
It i' taken for granted, of course, that all
will subscribe and then pay their snbSl'riptions.
But your support mu.t not
stop here. Yon must work for many
other subscriptions from the city officials,
the alumni, the grade schools and other
ource . "\Yhen you meet an alumnus
ad\'isc him of the fact that Kenosha Iligh
School will shortly publish an annual. A
graduate ol' Kenosha High Rchool know;,
the real Yalue attached to an annual of
TUE SPY and he will readily sub cribe.
Te t him.
There arc still othrr ways by which you
can advertise TUE PY and if you have
the right spirit you \vill easily detect them.
The thing is to get into the game. Then
yon will find a way. If TIIE SPY is to be
a success, it must have a large sale and if
it is to have a large ale, it must be advcrti ·cd and the adwrti ing medium is enry
Kenosha High School student. Will yon
rrspond?
If the three problems are solYed, then
the question of THE SPY' succes. is
also sohed. If the stndrnts co-operate
in this undertaking and give us all the
help \Ye request of them, then the fifth
annual 'PY will be an unprec·c•<lcnted success. Success, therefore, a far as THE
SPY is immediately concenwcl, can be
expressed in another word, co-operation.
The respon ibility of this s1H·cess rests
upon your shoulders. "\Yill ,\ 011 hrar it 1

l1avP all ('OllH· herP for an PX[ll'('ss p111·prnw.
namely, to a(•qnire an <•<l1L<·atio11. 'J'o
facilitate this, a course of stncly has been
<l<'vised hy mru whose sole aim is to aid
tlw pupil in 1wledi11g those branches most
suited to ea(·h pupil's proelivity and
ahility. To adapt this cour c of study
to our needs is to achie\·e our purpo~w;
that of receiving an <'clncation.
To make this possible a program of rc('itations has heen arranged by the head
of thr school. Then each individual's
actual \rnrk is begun. During each scmes•
tcr every class takes, on an average,
about
five monthly tests and at the completion
of the . emestcr, a final examination. Thi
is the suhject that TUE 'PY desires to
treat.
The final examination, if hone tly conclncted hy the teacher and honourably
written by the student, i a fair and equitable criterion for judging a student's
ability and achievements for that term.
True, in practically cYcry case, the teacher
makes out as fair an examination as he is
C'apable of and so the results of unfairnes
can not be laid at her hands, but rather at
tlw hands of the sttHlent. If the <'Ondition.
honourably required of teacher and
st lHknt t"ouhl be met, then a .i ndgnH'nt hy
a teacher of a stmlPnt' · ability could he
rra onably given. But here the trouble
begins. Ca. c have come to the attention
of THE SPY which prove that the honor
of many a student cannot be re pe(•tcd,
that a K. II. S. student is not true to himself. But, why not~ IJet us ser.
As in practically all proposition , so in
this \Ye have, what are eallcd, eorrupt
pntctices. The stnd(•nt, who feel· himself
slipping a1Hl who has to pass a Ii na 1
examination to g<'t a ll('('('ssary ('l'('(lit,
\\·ill resort to almost any adion to
at"hievr that end. We ha\'e all heard of
thr white l'llff, the slip of paper, the small
1wtP-hnok, and of nian;.· otlH•r practi1·cs as
hypo(·ritil·al and fra1Hl11lP11t. They arc all

falsr means applied to an unworthy end.
Thr studPnt iu sympathy with these corrupt practice· is belittling himself. Ile
may think that he is putting one over on
the instrudor, but the joke is on him.
Although the average teacher realizes
that ;uch a mall thing as a "cribber"
exists, she clors not cxrrt hrr elf snffi<·iently to dis<'O\'<'r him. lwl'alls<' she lrnows
that such a person is a cktrimcnt to himelf and not to th<' teacher. , Tow, in !'11001
the. c corrupt practiee§ may procure for
onr a pa::;ing grade and eventually a
diploma, but Olll'C out in the wo1:ld it will
ncwr secure him a position. A position
is nen'r giYcn a per.·on bee au e he po:. es. es a high school diploma. The employrc must he able to dPliYer "the
goods.'' The cmployrr will aecept nothing
less than" the goods." The party capable
of using corrupt means to achirve an end
in high sehool is eapablc of the samp or
similar actions in his life work, but, sooner
or later, his employer will discover his
unworthiuess.
C'onupt practil'l'S may
he and arc a
frmporary
sm·c·bs
in the school wh<'re the time is too limited
to detect ancl root them out, but in the life
of the world it i otherwise. Herr the
employer becomes intimately acquainted
with the work of his ernployc'c ancl the
employee is, therefore, unable to slip one
over as he had preYiously done while in
"<'honl. The result-disl'harg><'. So h!'warc !
Act from hone t motives, truly. :Make all
your actions honourable. Practice the
honest methods that lead to sueces. , for
dishonourable mrthods never lead to that
pinnacle of aehievement. As you model
yourself for the .future, so shall that future
be. Be careful, therefore, of your ideal.
If it he honourable and honest, cleave to
it; if it he di. honourable and di.·honest,
C'ast it asid<'. Do as your l'onsciencl' ad' vises and you will neYcr be in the wrong.
Then your ideal will be pPrfect and your

.\I ·o about the rooting. The crowd you
brought down adcd about a· enthu iastic
as a dead tcnni ball. Our rooter , when
we went to the Belle City, tarted right off
and kept up a fine racket on the tage
thruout the game even though we were
sorely defeated. Only when your team
was a trifle ahead would you yell and
then it was disorganized cheering.
\Yhere wnc all thr girls you were going to bring down to root? Our fair and
otherwi c ex turned out 50-50, filling the
north balcony to overflo"·ing.
Oh! Ye:! \Ye hung on it on you every

l\Iay we hopr. Racine, that all your future prophccirs will have a like result.
But, nenrtheless, your anticipations arc
a grrat deal more inspirin"' to you than
your realizations. Just the . ame, Racine,
we mu t give you credit for your , uccesse'
and we rl'alize that in you we have a

may our rivalry be as inten e a heretofore, but can't "·c attempt to make it a

Racine, 61 ; Kenosha, 11.
On February eh•Yenth one hundred
Keno ha High Bchool rooter.- and threP
ba ket ball teams, the Firsts, the econds
and the :\Iiclgets, went to Racine to play
Hacinc Iligh and we came back a . adly
di appointed lot. The games had arou ed
a great dt>al of enthn. ia m in K0no ·ha and
Hacinp and a crowd that completely
packed the big Gym of the Stephen Bull
~l'hool gave vent to tlwir enthusia m in
yell .
'rI1e hrn :\lidgct team .tarted the eYening 's program and the game ended in a
\Yin for the Racine team. "\ll of tlw little
fellows from KPnosha played a . trong and
st0ac1y game, Pspecially Hedeen, IIanssen
and Sandelin. The . core of this battle
was 1!i to 11. The only alibi for lo ing
"·as the fact that the Racine :\Iidgets were
'·elongated."
The hig game "·a played second o a
to reliPYe the su ·pen 'e and tension of
two preliminary games on the two teams.
This game rt'. ulted in a Racine vfrtory,
61-11.
The opening minutes of the game foretold a clo ·e game for both teams pa · ed
back and forth for qnitP awhill' lwfore
Threinen finally caged a ba. ket.
This
seemed to be the stimulant that Racine
lll'<'<led for they immediately sprang into
adiou and tarted . eYentl'en proce. ions
to the hasket. Swede managed to make
hrn throw· out of the fiye foul. called on
HacitH' <luring- this half. The team work
of the Hacine players wa superb, altho'
it was dne to tlwir familiarity of the
Coor.
The teams came hack mn<'h fre her
after their rrst but Racine till kept up
tlu•ir ha ket shooting. EYery one of their
T'u~!'

Fourtl'en

players inade from one to five baskets.
Our fellows worked much better than in
the pre\ ious half and by their team work
Thrcinen was able to make three baskets
as also a free throw. Racine piled up 27
points and at the whistle led by 50 points.
The 'econd teams played the last game
and this was the mo t interesting one of
the eYening. It was tight, full of excitement and quite a relief from the preYious
game. J. Schnell and Priddis at guanl
starred for Kenosha, while ~IcEllroy and
DaYis of Hacinc w·ere their shining lighb.
But, altho' the game wa dose we had to
he content with d<'fcat.
R acine College, 21; Kenosha, 41.
On the afternoon of Feb. 26th the team
traveled to Racine and decisively defeated
the team repre en ting Racine College. The
game was fast, interesting and one of
the hest played this season.
KPno ha 's
team work and passing became almost
automati<·. "\ 11 of the members of the
team played a co-operative game, a game
to win. Hhenstrom, Threinen and Schl0yer
did practically all of the coring, while
Schnell and Reith played strong and
steady games at guard. The team made
thirty-one point to Racine's three during
the first half and ten to eighteen during
the ·econd half. Small of Racine was the
indiYidual light of the game for he made
seYenteen point for his team.
Racine College Seconds, 15 ; Kenosha Seconds, 14.
The game beh,·een the Seconds was fast,
clean and very exciting. The teams wer<.'
evenly matched and every point scored
1rn mad0 after a hard fight. Our econds
should have "·on this game but many
costly slips lost for them. At one time
during the 0cond half \Yeinberg had a
clean shot for the basket, but it wa a
littlP hurried antl missed by a hair. The
Raeine team made all of their points in
the first half, whil0 Kenosha <livided
thPirs evenly.

Racine H. S., 24; Kenosha H. S., 31.
On March third in the be t and mot
exciting game of the sea on, Kenosha
High defeated Haeine High. The final
count was :31 to 2:1: and every point 'ms
hard-fought and descning.
Kenosha
again clisplavcd her '·come hack" ahilit,·
in this gam~ for at half time Racine w~s
in the leacl, 16-1.). Keno. ha came back
strong during the second half and marked
up 16 while Racine was only able to
raise 7.
The large. t school crowd that ever witnessed a basket hall game in Kenosha
packed the Coli emn. The audience munberecl about even hundred, one hmHlred
of whom wer(' from Racine. It wa · thi,
large crowd that helped the player morl'
than anything else for they kept the
locals on their toes thruout the game and
had them fighting.
It i hard and practically impossible to
pick an outstanding player on the t('am
for they all played their different po ·itions in extraordinarily good style and
did what was expected of them o that we
have no basis for judgment. Captain
Threinen led in the coring with ·ix ba ·.
kets, although Rhenstrom was dose behind with three field baskets and five
straights out of senn free throw .
Schleyer played a mighty fine game
around his basket, getting three of the
markers.
8d11wll and Reith held Lahr a!l(l ~ieh
in excellent fashion and it "·a only thru
luck and reach that they managed to to·
any bask ·t · at all. Por that rea on, 'aptain Lunde at guard wa forced to pull the
deep shots from the center of the floor in
order to give Racine its points. Bing, of
Racine, also put up a fine game by bn•aking many of Kenosha' · trick formations.
There was a good deal of excitement
over the final core. the Keno ha supporfrrs
going wild. while the Racine '' tandby '·
l('ft the lrnihling sore and disgusted.

The game between the Seconds came
first and Racine had to acknowledge defeat by the score of 23 to 17. The team
work of Kenosha featured and thru it
Keno ·ha managed to keep in the lead. The
Brute with six. (~nandt, fiYe, and Ryan,
"·ere not familiar "·ith such a large floor
and were a little "at sea." Of the players
·weinberg wa. high with ten point , then
Brncc with six, (~tultltlt, fiw, and Hyan,
two. l\IcEllroy, of Racine, played the best
of his teammates both on defence and
offense. He made seYen points, in addition to being all over the floor and getting
into al the mixups. Ryan and Priddi ·
desene credit for their work at guard.

THE MILWAUKEE TOURNAMENT.
Wauwautosa, 25; Kenosha, 27.

On the night of 1\Iarch 9th the K. IL S.
five went to l\Iilwankee to play the first
game in the sedional tournament for this
district. Keno"-ha took the floor at 7 :30
and had as their opponents the team that
represented \Yauwautosa. \Vauwauto a
had been hailed a. the prohahle winner
of the tournam('nt and Keno ha, therefore, undertook the ta k of defeating the
best on the floor in the first preliminarie ..
In the first half Bert started the points
rolling for Kenosha when he caged the
first baskPt. Swede, Schleyer and Schnell
also managed to slip in a few and when
the half encled the core tool at H-16.
\Yauwautosa had the lead. In the . econd
half our f('llow. started out with a sprint
and made two basket which gave u the
lead of two point . \Vauwauto. a tlwn
cam(' haC'lc with a ha kt•t and therehy tied
the score at 18 all. 'l'hen Schnell made one
of hi. famon. :1:3 th'gr('e angle shots which
again gave us th(' lead by t"·o point . The
game zigzagged in this manner until the
, last minute of play when Swl'de made the
hasket "·hich gave us the game. The final
seore was: Kenosha, 27. \Yauwautosa, ~5.

West Bend, 27; Kenosha, 28.
In the second day's battle for the Sectional Championship Keno ha wa pitted
against the strong team from \Yest Bend.
With the Normal School back of K. H. S.
the team started at top speed, Kenosha
making the fir t ba ket in the first minute
of play. Then We t Bend made one, tying
the score. Schleyer now rolled one in
which wa instantly followed by one by
Rich Schnell. The team work of both
teams wa fine and sent thrills thru the
, pectator. who packed the gym. Kenosha
followed up with a couple more ba kets
hy wede and Threinen, while West Bend
made a ba ket and a few free throws. At
the end of the half, West Bend had the
lead on Kenosha by one basket.
The sct·ond half opened up ·w ith a hurst
of speed for K. II. . They managed to
make bYO ba ket which gave them the
lead of one basket. By this time the crowd
wa yelling terrifically. At the end of the
regular game the score stood, 25-25.
By the rules of the tournament the
teams had to play an extra five minutes.
West Bend made the first ba ket and with
about two minutes to play wede made a
pretty ba ·ket from the foul line and this
tied the core. A free throw by Swede
gave us one point to the good. With ahout
twenty seconds to play a foul was called
on Keno ha, but the We t Bend player iu
throwing it, hit the edge of the ba ket, it
rolled down into the basket and then out
again, .Just then time was up and the
whistle blew with the core 2 -27 m
Kenosha' favor.
It \Vas the unanimous opinion of all
pre ent that the game was the fastest ever
played on the floor and one fhat would
be remembered a long time.

Waukesha, 16 ; Kenosha, 14.
In the third and final battle for the
• ectional Championship Kenosha High
8l'hool was defeat<>d by the team from
Waukesha High 'chool. The team was by
1'31!"1' Six te<>n

uo means ontclas ed, hnt owing to the
luck on the part of Waukesha and the
'. trenuou work of the night before, when
we met \Yest Bend, the game was lo. t by
the clo e margin of 16-14. It wa. apparent to all that the games of the night before had weakened to some degree both
teams and a a result the game ·was not as
fast a· was expected. Rich Schnell and
Chubby Reith played games at guard that
were probably superior 'to any game ever
playNl by any Keno ha guard. Xeither
forward on the opposing team made more
than two field baskets during the entire
,game.
For the fir t four minutes neither team
scored a basket and then \Yaukesha made
the first one and followed it up by a free
throw. Then Bert managed to slip one in.
\Yankesha followed with two more. Thing-.
began to look bad for Keno ha, but thrn
some pretty team work the team managed
to slip in a basket and then a free throw.
When the half ended the score stood to 6
,in Waukesha's favor.
.After some dever pa. sing in the second
half Kenosha managed to slip in a couple
more baskeL and take the lead. \Vauke,,ha then caged two basln'ts, but this wa,;;
followed by a basket and a free throw by
8wecle which again put us in the lead.
After a basket made by Capt. Threinen
had been ruled out, ·waukesha made a
free throw and tied the score at fourteen
all. \Yith about fifteen seconds to play
Cristoph, of Waukesha, made the luckiest
. hot ewr seen on the Normal Gym floor
which v;on the game.
After the game the first three teams to
place, \Vauke ha, Kenosha and Wauwautosa, were given a banquet by the school.
Gold medal. and a silver shield were
awarded to \Vaukesha, the champions,
while Kenosha and Wauwautosa received
sih·er and bronze medal . Our players to
receive medals were: Captain Threinen,
Rhenstrom, Rchleyer, R. Schnell, Reith
and J. Schnell.

FROM

THE STUD[
DClDl
To 'I'IIE 'PY:
There has bel'n a great deal of talk
lately about the lack of proper spirit iu
Kenosha High School. ,'chool pirit is
drad, th(•y say. I am indincd, howenr,
to disagree to some extrnt with thi · statement. Hathcr, it is the fault of too much
<'onfidl'nce; too much succe ·s has maclr.
us careless and caused the idea that tlw
various school activities do not 1wcd our
. upport in order to be ·neccs:ful. I agree
that the differc11t teams, hask<'t hall, football, debate, etc., are chosen from willing
and competent people, hut that is no reason at all why we should not give them
all the ha<'king we can to aid them.
\Ye
arc very proud of our representatives in
the various activities, but in our pride
we forgl't the duty we owe them. \Vlwnrn'r they fail to reach the top-most rung
of success, we overlook the fact that we
have not done our part, and their best
efforts arc rewarded by "knocks." This
is the point where over confidence ench
and lack of the right kind of spirit suc<'eeds it.
If THE SPY docs not come
up to your expectations you immediately
begin to "knock" the staff. It is your
SPY, your basket ball team, your debating

team, and instead of knoeking, do all in
your power to support them hy contribut-

ing material to TUE SPY, attending dchatcs and games. If yon arc a BOOSTER,
he the right kind of one and get behind
eYcrything worthy of K. II. 8. and PF H.
-Edel Hansen, '16.

To THE ~l'Y:
In looking thrn till' exchange. from

that certainly applies to our own :school.
