Although not knowing him personally, we wish to express our sympathy by dedicating the fol lowing poem to his memory. THIS LOST ONE High on a snowy mountain, In the fur, far away, Liu the bones of a Portland laddie, That the storms d'd lead astray. That mountain, it holds tho socret, That no one can unfold. And where the boy is hidden, Im a story yet untold. As darkness enshrouded tho country, And clouds, they covered the ' Uies, A weary lad lay down to rest And never again did rise. The storm roared o'er the mountain, With many a cry and mounj But the lad, he lay there, pale and still; She hud cluimed him as her own.

"toomuch pep The citizens of the little town of Hamilton were very proud of their high school football team. They had at last broken into the lime light throuirh their football prowess. So fur, that season, they were undefeat ed. They had humbled teams from larger schools that had in the past trampled over the Hamiltonians. The big test of the season would soon be at hand. The Hamiltonians would face the undefeated Lewiston team on the latter field. Truly, it was an important game. A defeat would mean the team would return to their classes and the record they had made would fade irito football oblivion, while a victory would mean a chance to play the champions of the western district for the state cham pionship. Attorney Thomas H. Rutchford, resident of Hamilton, was a football fan and, at one time, a football star. Ilia son, Thomas Rutchford Jr., was now quarterback and captain of the Hamilton eleven. Thomas Rutchford Sr. had prospered. He had not only accumulated a small fortune but also a surplus amount of potential energy more commonly . known as fat In fact, he tipped the scale at what was very near two hundred and fifty pounds. The day of the big game finally arrived. A crowd of Lewiston A few minutes later found the two outstanding football teams of the eastern part of the state in action. The first quarter was rather unevent ful. -The ball was first in Hamil ton's and then in Lewiston' territory. In the second quarter, Lewiston, rous ed to a frenzy, opened a terrific at tack upon Hamilton. Gain after gain put Lewiston within scoring distance. Tho Lewiston quarterback sent a drop kick over the locked Hamilton line and put his team in a 3 to 0 lead. Late in the fourth quarter, after the teams had battled through the third and most of the fourth quarters without scoring, tho elder Thomas Rutchford began yelling frantically from the bleachers, while from the Lewiston rooter came the cry, "hold that line." With two minutes to play the tired Hamiltonians battered the Lewiston defense for consistent gain. , Tom Rutchford, fighting demon of them all, carried the ball within four yards of the Lewiston line. At this point of the game Thomas H. Rutchford, the loyal Hamilton booster yelled as never a football enthusiast had yelled before. He emitted a series of yells of his own origin, while at the same time he waved his arms frantically in the air and broke all records in the standing high jump. The board in the bleach er on which he had been jumping so violently the last few minutes, gave way to the corpulent attorney with a loud bang when he lit on it after a record jump. The signals had just been called and the ball was in the hands of Cap tain Rutchford when he heard the re port. Thinking it was the timer's gun and the game was over, he laid the ball down and called for his team to assemble and give Lewiston the customary yell. Just then a Lewis ton back picked up the ball and plunged his way through the confused Hamiltonians and ran the entire dis tance of the field for a touchdown Presently the timer's pistol sounded and the game ended 9 to 0 in favor of Lewiston. Captain Tom Rutchford told his father a lot of things after that game. All that I will mention here is this. "Dad, you have too much pep." .

GIRLS' LEAGUE MEETS At the meeting of the Girls' League Monday afternoon, Januury 11, prep arations were made for a candy sale to be held Saturday, Januury IB. Each student is to provide one plate of candy, thereby avoiding all the unnecessary work which has been im posed upon different students at pre vious candy sales. The Junior class rings and pins which were ordered several weel s ago, arrived last Monday. They were delayed by the large quantities of Christmas mail. 'Did you ever take her to a dunce and after paying at the door, find that you had four cents left? Then, after a rotten evening of worry, have the dear young thing suggest, "Let's eat." And while you were wonder ing how to break the news, have a friend come up and say "Hello, old man I Here's that ten dollars I bor rowed last month." ' Neither did I. been hoped for by tho basketball team and boys' gym class, Mr. Dodds: What's your favorite hymn, Dorothea? Dorothea: The one you kicked off the back porch last night. Mis. Cody (knocking on bedroom door): Eight o'clock, eight o'ejock. Sheldon (sleepily): Did you? Bet ter get a doctor then. ' Lewiston team filed out on the field and received a cheer from the great crowd of Lewiston rooters that echo ed and re-echoed with tremendous volume. A few minutes later the Hamilton team appeared on the bat tlefield and received a wild yell of ad miration from the' corpulent Attorney Kutchford, a lone Hamilton rooter seated at tho extreme end of one of the bleachers. .
