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." . William Jensen

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." '

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. .
