How dear are these October clays!So full of life anel joy are they,

That all the world sings out their praiseFrom dawn's first flush till close of day.

.On October 30th occurred the death of Mamie Edling. 1\1issEdlmg was a member of the class of '07, but on account of her illhealth she was forced to -leave school in the early part of the vear. Weextend our heartfelt sympathies to the members of the berea,;ecl fgmilr

High 'School. students! Are we recelV111g all the pleasure andbC'nefit for the time that we are spending in the High School? We~re not if we are limiting our education to that which we receive from

our studies. We fail· to get from our studiesfIIG1-1 SCHOOL many qualities that are necessary in everyHOJ.VORS AND walk of life, such as self-control, tact, re·

ORGANIZA TIo.I\lS. sourcefuness and many others. Our systemis not at fault, as it is an impossibility to

arrange courses of study that would meet the requirements and developevery faculty of the student.

The large part of our education that we can't get from our studiesmay besecm;ed from the efforts we put forth to achieve High Schoolhonors, and from the various organizations of the High School. Weare to blame if we neglect these opportunities for self-improvement,from which a great deal of pleasure and honor may be derived. Thedrill in the battalion inculcates habits of neatness, promptness, obedi­ence, and gives ·to the student a straight and erect carriage. In theoffices, especially the commissioned offices, the student learns to bealert, to have self-control and to use tact; then there is considerablehonor attached to.· these offices. These are the benefits received bythose who drill with a right spirit and attitude.

In athletics, a student develops not only a strong body, but hemust learn to think and act quickly. The honor in representing hisschool, and the pleasure from the games, the trips whi~h the teamtakes and from various other sources, amply repay hini for the time,energy and patience he expends. In debating, the student· m:ust applyhis knowledge of mathematics, English, history and of various othersubjects; he must learn to have self-possession and to speak convinc­ingly, while the distinction and enjoyment he receives is ·suffitient re­ward for the efforts he puts forth.

We have every reason to beproucl of our battalion, athletics andliterary societies. The work of the boys' debating societies is abovecriticism, but the deplorable fact is that two or three hundred boys arenot receiving this valuable training instead of only ninety. May anumber of students, who have a great deal of ability and time, takeadvantage of the possibilities to win laurels and to improve themselves,that our battalion, athletics, debating and literary societies are offering.

Recently a me'eting was called by 1\1'r. Waterhouse for all boYS in­terested in the subiect of debatincr. A large number resDonded to thecall which resulted in a most enthusiastic' and successful meetini. ,

Plans for the future were discussed to quite ~n extent by 1\1r.'Vaterhouse and various members present, which if they materializewill result in a very interesting- and satisfactory season. A~. a re~u.1t

of the conference with Principal Ricker of West Des l\10mes Hle-hSchool, Mr. Waterhouse spoke of a plan in which Des Moines, Omahaand Kansas City would enter into a debating league, each school to de­hde against the other two. There will be. two teams. to represent eachschool, an affirmative and a nee-ative, one team will he ~ent awav t9compete with an outside team and one to remain at home and, debate,with an outside team. As a result there would be thr~e strong- de-.

,bates one in eachcitv, on the same ni~ht. A specialaclvantag-e of thisplan is that it vives six boys an opportunity' to make the two teams in­stead ofonly three to make the one team. Another nlan "Voas to havethe various debating-societies as representatives of the Hlgh School"debate with corresponding representatives of South Omaha and C:;oun­cilBluffs.

vVith theseoehatesancl our annual debate with Lincoln, our pros­pects f<;>r fl .~g~cessful year seem to be very bright.

'@llttillion.The promotions and assignments taking effect within the last

month are as follows:

To be' Captain of Signal Corps,..--Lieutenant Herrick Swan.'To be First Lieutenant-Cadet David L. Oberg.To be Second Lieutenant-:-Cadet Harry Sumners.To be Sergeants-Cadet John Chambers, Cadet Sit Moore.

r To be Corporals-Cadet Mac Parkinson) Cadet Harley Deams,Cadet \\Till Kennedy.

Transfers to Signal Corps Company: From Company E, Cadet C.Kel1er, Cadet V. l\lagney, Cadet C. Singleton. From Company C­Cadet D. Chesney, Cadet C. Robbins. From Company B-Cadet L.Smith, Cadet G. Wasberg-. From Company D-Cadet W. Lyman,

. Cadet T. Myer, Cadet H. Swansen, Cadet E: Forbes.,I .

"\iVith cold weather in sight the captains are carefully drilling theirmen in the squad movements, as the cadets will ,soon have to do alltheir drilling inside. Although comparatively few of the men appearin full uniform, the companies present a remarkably good appearanceand are fast rounding into shape, due largely to the attention and, in-'­terest \vhich the men, both old and. new, are taking.

A very radical change has been made within the last month; thehospital corps has been abolished and united with the signal corps,which has been made into a company. This is a very wise move onthe part of Captain Oury, as signal work proves excellent and also use­ful training, and the wo-rk is more suitable for boys than that which isfound in the hospital corps. Among the new features which CaptainOurv intends to introduce are the study of telegraphy and telephoningand signaling at night with acetylene lamps. \"

The band is not making as fast progress as the other org-aniza­tions of the battalion, due largely, to the lack of material and also theloss of its 1110st efficient leaders through graduation and for variousother reasons. However we feel sure that under the able, leadershipof Prof. Nevotti, and by hard practice, that the band wiII come comeup to its usual standard.

1\1r. Rjcker, principal of -West Des Moit)es High School, was ,a'visitor here during- the latter part of last month. He came to discusspians with Mr. Waterhouse in regard to the debating interests between\Vest Des Moines al}d Omaha High School.

The first of the four statues given to the school by the class of'07 arrived last month. It is a handsome. bronze fig-ure of "Mercury,"an exact reproduction of the famous "Mercury" sculptured by JohnBologne. It stap<;1s,~n a pedest~l of green marble in the east alcoveof the library and comm,al1ds the admiration of all who enter. Therest of the statues failed to arrive) b\lt will b~ here in q s,hQr-t time.

a.H. S.} 12 ; Council Bluffs H. S.,10.O. H. S.,· 43; Harlan H. S., o.O. H. S., 26; Beatrice H. S., o.The reputation of our football team was still to be made when the

hays went down to Bellevue, almQst a month ago, and held the collegeteam of men down to a score of 5 to a in a practice game. The pre­vious hard practice· had not sufficed to awaken the student body to thi:;year's possibilities; it took forty minutes of hard play with collegemen to introduce the coming champions. of Nebraska and western Iowahigh schools. But when we did wake up, what an awakening! Itreally did the players good to hear us yell

"Hokus, polnls, dinky, daw,Get there, get there, Omaha!End and center, tackle, guard,All together, holel 'em hard!O-O-O-M-A-A-A-A-'H-A-­0-1\1A~HA-Hig?School."

After the Bellevue game came another week of hard practice, withvaluable coaching and encouragement from Charley Lehmer, Al Fair­brother, Ben Cherrington, Hom~er Searle and other loyal alumni. Theplayers began to show up in their best forn: and many close contestsfor places on the team ensued. Selby and Gardiner were on almostequal terms as punters; Howes and Warren Howard were promising­ends. with Reel not far behind; and Wilson, Jensen, Carlson, Curtisand 'Salisbury had a lively time trying to win g-uards' places. Latenserand "\iVhinnery showed up well as tackles, and' McWhinney and Flackwere out for center. Both Pixley and Lehmer were' in good form atquarter, a,nd the other places behind the line were filled, 'in practice.by McKinney, Charlton, Wentworth, Gardiner, Selby, Entriken, Nagland Merle Howard. . ..

By Saturday, the 12th of October, the team was in fine shape,andwe played Council Bluffs with the following line-up: .

L. E.--:Howes. R.E:-W. Howard.L. T.--Whinnery. Q. B.--Selby, Lehmer.L. G.-Nagl. L. H. B.-M. Howard,Entriken.C~nter--McWhinney. R. H. B.--McKinney~R: G.-Wilson. f~ 'B:,-G~rdim;r,

_ Everybody knows we won, and against such a team as that to win,was a distinction, more than a fulfillme11t ;of ex·pectation. The' daywas ideal, the play,fast and close, and things were coming our way,bttt-- Every rose has its thorn. Before the ball had been in playfive mi1!utes Merle ,l-Ioward, our, student coach andwanager,. who waspl!lying left half, back, was disabled by a broken collar bone, and hadto, leave the field. Thus the most unfortunate thing that couldhave happened to, the team occurred in the very hour when successwas imminent.. Howard has done much for O. H. S. football thisyear and: last, and his forced retirenlent' from the game is the worstkipd of bad .luck, both for, the team and for him. But, like the sweetscent· of -the thorny·.·blossom, Merle's work showed itself in the midstof the misforthne, and under Captain Latenser's leadership the teampitched in again with a determination to win any how, and they did.

However, don't think that deter'mination was the only factor. Norwas the excellent playing of Selby, Lehmer, Gardiner, .McKinney,Whinnery, 'Entriken and all the other fellows entirely responsible forthe, score.. ' All these' things, together with the enthusiastic support ofa loyal bunch of rooters, are what told the tale. And, not being satis­fied .with mere yelling, some of the leather-lunged aggregation almostwore',out Mr. Fitzgerald's bell rope, and burned up a cord or two ofwood in a public celebration.

Next came the game .at Harlan on October 26, when the Iowans,were smothered with forty-three purple and white blankets in returnfor our defeat last year. The contest was well fought, but wasOmaha's from the first., Every play gave good gains, and all the play­ers worked so well that any notice of individual' playing would be in­complete without the name of every man. However, the work thatcounted most for scores was done by Lehmer,Whinnery, Selby, Laten­ser, Entriken and Gardiner. 'Nash's work in defense and interferencesurprised everyone, as he was taken to Harlan only as a substitutefor the regular guard. All the other men, including the substitutes,showed tlP well and did their part towards making a championshipteam. This was the line-up:

.L. E.-Howes.L ..T.-Whinnery, Entriken.L.G.-Nagl, FlackCenter-McWhinney.R. T.-Latenser.R. E:-\iV. Howard.O. B.-Lehmer, Pixley.L. H. B.-Entriken, Gardiner.R. H. B.-McKinney.F.B.-Selby.

Last week the. school's athletic enthusiasm showed up well in thegiant mass meeting held in 204, when the olel songs and yells 'Yerepracticed and· new ones learned. Captain Oury's speech" was, heartilyappreciated, as were also the talks by lVIr. Waterhouse, Mr. Bernsteinand Mr. Congdon.,

And, of course, after such a mass meeting, we couldn't help de­feating Beatrice, whose strong team was outplayed by our boys to thetune of 26 to 0. Captain Latenser made two of the touchdowns, on,e

being after a long return punt by Selby, whose other w()rk 'was good.lVIcKinney, aided by some of Entriken's fine interference,' made' theother hvo touchdowns and kicked all four goals. The other twopoints were made on a safety. Nash showed up str<?ng' at left guard,and both 'Lehmer and Pixleyc1id well at quarter. Howes and Howardput up hard, steady work throughout the game and, madea number ofexcellent tackles. l\1cWhinney and Wilson deserve mention for credit­able work, and ~Thinnery made good gains. Charlton and· Gardinereach played for a few minutes in the second half' and their work wasup to their regular standard. The line-up was as usual" except that'Nash took the place of Nagl, who was out of practice on account ofa lame shoulder. '

What's the matter with the team?It's all right! 'What's all rig-ht?The team!

Now for the games with York, South Omaha and Lincoln. Thelast two are scheclllled at Dietz park, and. to result successfully forOmaha 'must also be well attended. So, everybody 'come ; stay togetherin the grandstand; wave your pennants and yel~ for the

Purple and white, purple and white;Omaha High School, she's all right!

Omaha's second team is fast and strong this year, and makes,thefirst team work to beat it. They played Benson:abotit two \ye~ksago,

O. H. S. TENNIS.

Among the prominent athletic events of the season was the cham­pionship tennis tournament for both singles and doubles, -which washeld during the former part of last month. Although the weather' inter­fered considerably, the tournament was quite a success, it produ<;ingmany strong players, which makes the future of the game here veryhopeful.

Sam W. Reynolds won the tournament and championship by cle­featll1g 'Sam Carrier 3-6, 6-4, ~-6, 6-4, 6-4. This match was by farthe most interesting and exciting of the tournament: both players play­ing with remarkable ability. Although Carrier had the lead on hisopponent at the end of the third set, he was unable to hold out againstthe swift net smashes and brilliant lawfords. of the champion. Hisability to return balls that seemed almost impossible to get, won forhim many points, but he was unable to keep -it tip. ,I-Iowever, thematch was not won until the last point played, it beinganybody's gamethroughout. ,In Reynolds th~, challenger of next year will find a dif­ficultmari to cleal' \'vith.

The Forum, St. Joseph, Mo., is a good exchange. The Octobercover design is attractive, as ar,e also the cuts. "The ·Confessions of aStudent':' is a very clever selection of verse. Your Exchange Columnalso looks neat.

"\Ve have received some v,ery good exchanges this month, and thePoly .Prep, Brooklyn, N. Y., ranks among the best of these. It isprinted upon very good paper, and has excellent form. The generousmargins are restful to the eye, and the cuts are appropriate. Its lit­erary material is as good as its form, and we sddom find such a goodcoll.~ction of· strong edito'rials, interesting stories, and excelent poetrycombined in one book. There is, however, one small criticism-printyOllr city and state in some prominent place, so it can easily be seen.You may well be proud of your paper, for it is deserving of muchpraise.

The Purple & Gold, Bellevue, Neh., is a good paper. Your coverfor October is very effective. Your literary material is good; butwh~re is your exchange editor, and his column? Your jokes are alsorather scarce.
