Boyhood Dreams
When but n child 1 used to
plan what 1 would do in iuturo
years, when 1 grew to be n man
win ue a uoy or girl to reprcsen
each department of schoo
activity such ns art, music
athletics and literature. The
float will be symobolic of the
things that make schoo) spir
in James John.
On Friday last, the students
of James John and tho commun
ity of St. Johns enjoyed the pri
velege of hearing Dr. Davit
Starr Jordan, the world famed
educator, speak on the subject
ot "Kings I Have Known." Th
wit and humor a3 well as the
depth of his stories was highly
appreciated by his hearers. Dr.
Jordan told of his meetings mu
association with various kings
among whom was the ex kaiser
of Germany, whom ho met in
Germany thirty years ago
Strange to say, Dr. Jurdon tie
spised him without knowing
just why and ha3 avoided him
over since, oven tho he had op
portunities to be presented be
fore the war. Among other
kings of Dr. Jordon's acquaint
mice were King Edward, of
Groat Rrltuin, tho native King
of Samoa, tho Sultan of Turkey
King George, of Greece and the
old King of Bulgaria. Besides
being ono of tho greatest sclent
iuts in the world, Dr. Jordan
is Chancellor and President
Emeritus of I.olund Stanforc
University. His work for the
government of the United
States in studying salmon and
their habits, is universally
known nnd his book on salmon
is ono of tho great scientific
classics, for nltho' tho life of
tho salmon reads liKo romantic
fiction, it loses none of its
scientific value in Dr. Jordan'
telling.
The first regular meeting of
tho James John Civic Lcaguo
was held in tho auditorium
Tuesday ovoning, Juno 11. The
program was largely furnished
by tho sociology class ns fol
lows: live minuto talks by Mil
dred Evorhart on The Play
ground Movement: Hnzol Green,
on the Rack to Schcol Drive;
Theresa Rich, on tho Child
Labor Organization: Joo Jower
on Housing: Dorothy Jones,
Tho Anti-Clgnrettp Movement;
Ionia Cooper, on llio Modern
Menace: Charles Trumbull.
Americanization; Clarcnco Toolo
on tho High Cost of Crime, nnd
Tho Oregon Citizen, by Edward
Rood. A lively one net comedy
was put on by Alice Hrown and
Merlo Harrington and violin
solos by Melford Ve3leder, nd
vocal solos by Gladys keeney
and Glayds Coon were a pleas
ant featuro of tho evening. Tho
Civic Lcaguo is a new organiza
tion formed to meet the need of
more training in debate and pub
lie speaking. Regular monthly
meetings will he held next year
and a special eitort will be
made to inform the community
of tho nature of each program
so that a representative audience
of citizens may enjoy it.
The last final exam, is done,
and the students are gathering
up their books preparatory to
leaving. What is it that
makes the graduating class look
so much older and more digni
fied? Perhaps it is tho fact that
each one is now going forth
to face the creat problems of life
for himself. What is that half
glad, half sad feeling that wo
have, as we leave the dear old
school for tho last time or even
for the vacation? There is a
feeling of gladness for the work
thut we have accomplished and
the fact that we are fitted to
take our place among men. And
yet, there is a feeling 0? sadness
for those who are leaving, not
to return, the thot that we will
be separated, who knows to
what corners of the earth? Then
too, the knowledge that we are
losing two of the most beloved
teachers, who have been a help
and inspiration throughout our
high school days, gives rise to
another lump in the throat.
But those of us who are left
must., not become despondent,
for it is our duty to catch
the torch that has been flung to
us by those who have accom
plished so well the duties placed
upon them and carry on for

Do you realize that tho great
number of handsome liltlo spe

making chnnco visitors think
that Portland is an uptodato

Itorstnko away with them a very' with all tho plunder she could
iioiu, a gun and cutlass at my
hip. My dreams were shot with
blood and fire, nnd loud with
noisy, ribald glee; and here I
sit and pnw a lyre, nnd I have
never seen the sen, I had a
friend, n soulful lad, who lived
next door to my abode; nnd he
was never quite so glad ns when
ho framed n gontlo ode. His
mind was filled with rhythmic
dope, a bard's renown lie longed
to make; some day ho hoped to
bo a Pope, to stand with Shel
ley or with Blakf;. I've mot thin
friend of yesteryear, and ho hns
penned no deathless line; kept
busy by uir auctioneer, hiT sells
all sorts of hogs and swine. And
I hail one aspiring friend, who
often said, "My dreams won't
fade! Just watch me to the
heights ascend, n ruler in the
world of Iradel Juit watch my
curves and you will set the own
er of your biggest store; some
day my Meets will anil the sen,
snd bring me goods from every
shore." The facta eotisuiro to
disappoint. That youth fell down
the worn of all: lie'a running
now n hot dog joint, and you
may hear his plaintive brawl.

Letter From France
Sergeant Paul Irvine, son of

writes from Franco ns follows:
Le Mans, France, May 22,
1919-My Dear Mother: Wo
have been on the move for sov

moved by motor trucks from
Camp JotVrc to n concentration

weather was ideal for riding in

expression, "Sunny trance."
From Tonero to Auxerre. wo ran

hills nnd every whero a riot ol
folingo runn'ng irregularly along

Running down tho hillside are
rows of fruit trees or bits of
vineyard. Tho whole scene
reminded uh of Willamette vnl
ley, toward which all our thots
aro now turned. And we nro
camped in squad tents, that
with the hot sun nnd the sand
