 INTRODUCTION

This, The 1920 Revue, is the fifth annual to issue from the portals
of Linton High School.
It represents what the school has accomplished this year and especially
what the Senior class has accomplish_ed. It contains a record of the
happenings in this school for the . past year. It was our intention to make
tl1is book a larger one, but, owing to conditions, financial and otherwise,
we were forced to publish a book of practically the same size as those
preceding it. On account of lack of space a great part of the material
sent in was rejected, and only that which was considered most fitting
for a school publication has been used.
If this REVUE O,F 1920 does not come up to the standard of the
publications it will not be because of a lack of work expended upon it,
but because either lack of finance or of brains. (WE WILL NOT SAY
WHICH.)
It is now ready for your inspection, and it is our desire that yOUl'
~IJ.lal decision will be "A SUCCESS".

WHEN THE SENIORS WERE FRESHIES

f¥ I XTEElY
 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY
History in general is that branch
of knowledge which deals with t he
!past events. As Inen and women
have made history so can young man-
hood and yOt~llg womanhood maliC
hi s tory .
To make a great s uccess as the
class of '20 has don e, it takes the
mig hty will power of eve ry member
of the class. It takes a st rong dete r-
mination to put energy into work in
order to obtain a succes s in life, and
only what one puts in life will they
receive.
We entered L. H. S. , innocent fresh-
men ; proud that we wer e then high
schoo l student s . Our knowled ge of
what a hi g h school education is, wa s
little. but we have fought the fi :;(ht
va liantly. Our class has not only
produced "Star s" in the required ele-
ments of sc hool but in athleti cs and
social affairs as well. We ~leed onl y
to rem em1ber the deeds of Winters,
Hanna, Witty and Mol' to realize thi s
fact. A g lance over the rec ords of
the four years passed will show . the
talent of this class that has been
broug'h t forth from every phase 'of
education.
We know 'w hat it means to work
and to win. How natura l everyone
will look to the class of '20 ,,;ith an -
ticipation. We hear the co mmenda-
tions of the ones who hav e gone be-
for e us resounding on e very side, that
our class has measured up to the
f>quality of any class of L . H . S. The
chara cteristi cs of such a class can-
not be fully expressed.
We have met defeats and we have
\'aliantly won viotories. Our motto
has been "Cling Together" and every
one ha s absolutely done their part in
heing loyal to this saying. We hav e
many ins pirations in life but educa-
tion is the hi g hest point from which
these ilLSpirations flow whi ch prepare
us for the tasks 'whi ch the world h as
set for us to do.
We are leav ing L. H. S. as s tu -
dents of wor.th, who have well s pent
our tim e, hoping we have ga ined the
jJrai ses and res pect of all. Proud and
bappy we may ' leave, sayin g, ",Ve
came, we saw and we conquered."
Ruth O'Brien, '20.

 CLASS POEM

All the ~ hort sweet days that have passed:
Since we entered t'he Freshmen class,
Have been spent very earnestly,
Faithfully and laboriously
" ,
For L. H . So
At last the race was t hr ee-fou rth s run,
We felt that we were all but done,
, As Freshmen, Sophomores and Junior s
We won the best standard of years
At L, H, S,

At first as freshmen we were green, But the Senior claEs of '20

The most reproachful s ig ht e'er seen, We did boast, would do a plenty
But we daily worked, did not rest, We would s ho\ { the sc hool alumni
And always did our very best, \ We would outshine them or would die
FO'r L. H. S . For L. H. So

This first milestone was left behin'd, We will be bes t in Athletic sports,
With pride we started down the line, Scholarly knowled ge, of all s orts,
But were often oheck ed by tho se exams, Our Annual will be bi gges t yet,
Six, '~weeks tests and the teaclier's slams , One that all co uld nev.er forget
xt L: H. S. -- . At L . H. S.
, ,
All ' know we dill' not boast in vain,
For all our r eco rd s do pro claim,
That Ollr class of 19 20,
Certain ly did t he ir hna stful plenty,
For L. H. S.

 CLASS PROPHECY
It was a typical autumn day- ju st
the very kind of a day that makes
one dream of "long ago." 1 had been
thinking of myoid classmates and
wondering what fate they had been
destined to meet along their path way
of life.
'Still musing, I started out on a
lone walle-and walked until-I know
not how far-l came upon a Wide,
open field. The tall grass, bowing
before the wind seemed to beckon m e
myste riously ; and impulsively,
c lim,bed the old bar,bed-wire fence .
Scarcely had I completed this wondp.r-
ful feat , when I heard a s trang e bu,-
zing and whirring from above, and
f..udd enly s wee ping toward m e was
a hu ge 'white aeroplane, on the wing s
of wbich was painted in red a nd blu e
" 1920."
The next instant a tall figure came
toward me, clothed in a w'hite suit
of mail, and in his hand was a queer-
ly shaped object, re se m'bling field
glasses.
Ins tin ctively, I knew he was com-
ing toward me and I was not at all
alarmed when a clear voice said, "I
am the good knight of the class of
1920." He sa id nothin g more, bu t
giving m e t'h e field g lasses r es um ed '
hi s seat in t'he plane. }Ieel~ly, . al -
most re ve rently I followed, takin g ill Y
place' beside him.
Soon we were up among the white,
flee cy clouds t'hat had been so far
away only a few moment s be'f ore ;
and upon adjusting th e grotesque
glaEses, queer happenings imm edi-
:l.tcly ibegan to talee place.
As the aeroplane went sailing along
throu g h the clouds, the sweet strain s
of music floated toward me. 1 saw
before me a large audience listenIn g
breath lessly to an American tenor ,
who was making 'his debut. Looking
toward the stage 1 saw that the sing-
er was myoId classmate, Orville
Strong. In looking to a sce rtain his '
accom.panist, I recog nized Vinta Ne w-
ma n. Alas ' She wor e a wedding
ring and so I judged that they were
'hus band and wife. I IYonder{;ld if
this forthcoming tenol' would ever be-
co me as re nowned as the once famou s
Ca ru so .
'/ '11' /.; N '/'1' -~,n v I;'
 C:oing on \\' e soo n ca me to t h e c loud
of "mirth." Here, witnessed the
opening night of the H. A. Hewitt
Win s trel Show. On looking over the
memb er s of th e Compa ny, r saw that
two of myoid friends -held the 1ll 08t
i III pOl'tant parts, that of e nd men.
They were ·Clare nce Morgan and Har-
r y Hewitt, who were just as big "cut-
up s" as ever. Seated in an upper box,
li s tening enraptur ed, were two Soci-
ety Belles who greatly resembled Til-
lie 'Butler and Winnie Bakel'. Ev i-
dently, . t hey were s till waitin g and
hoping that so me day those two lJved
oiles behu'ld t he footlights might find
heart to ask the fatal que s tion .
Farther in t he c loud of "mirth," a
one-act vaud ev ill e play was bein g
Rtage d- presenting the popular Hetti-
belie and :.\Iickey in "A Nig ht in a
Parlor," alld to m y s urprise I r ecog-
ni zed the leadin g characte r s as
Venezuela Anderson and ·Thoma s :Vlc-
'I'/-//R '/'I'
Quade. Bright pros pec ts for all ru -
t ure amateurs!
We left the clouds of "mirth" be-
hind , and sailing a long I sa II' t'ilr ough
th e grotesque g lass es, a town, in th e
distan ce. Going toward it, a g re:lt
sigll'board 'bore the lege nd, "New Lin-
ton. " Approac'hing the business sec-
tion of the town I saw a lar ge sto re ,
the name of whi ch looked rather fa-
miliar. Imagine m y s urpri se whe:!
the name "W. Letsinger's Five alHl
T en Cent Store, Inc.," a ppeared befor e
my eyes. Ju st at that moment t'he
owner and 'hi s wife came out of the
sto re and leaning affectionately up on
her hu sband's al:m was lllin !! Haus -
s in.
The next thing t'hat attracted m:;
a ttention in the business section wa s
a huge s ign on which tb e words "Will .
Sahl11, Druggist," were inscribed .
The estwblisohment wa s very pros-
pel'OUS lookin g ancl I s upp o£ed "B ill "
had been treated kindl y ,by Fate,
,:.\Iy eyes were then directed toward
t1l e street" where, befitting the g reat
dignity of 'hi s profession, Ralph Wit-
ty, M. D., drove s lowl y along in hi s
e lect ric. He sto pped at the cornel'
lon g enough to re ce ive a state ly look-
in g yo un g lad y muffl ed in furs, into
hi s cal'. As she turn ed her face
to ward me, the familial' co untena nc e
of Flora kbrams, the "vamp," m et my
eyes l
T'I c,arin g ~' o m e co nfu s ion farther
(lown the street, a s uffr age tt e parade
str utted proudly a lon g led by Lillian
Lam and Helen Sp ice. Lillian ca r -
lied a hu ge b,anner with the word s,
"Down With :VIen." H e len ca rri ed one
al so, which I'ead, " Mab le H u n t fo r
Chief of Police,"
With th e a id of th e glasses, I fol -
lowed the proceSSion to th e pa latia I
of t'he mayol' of the city. who ,
h on~ e
with hi s wife was go in g out to the
magn ifi cent ca l' Which stood at th e
cu rbing. I thought th ey both lo oked
familial' and as they turned , I saw th e
faces of Kern Beasley and Hem'ietta
Bordinet~
Leaving m,y Euffragette classmates
to present their pleas to their mayor;
the plane carried me on to the su-
burbs of the city'. :\1y attention waR
ins tantly drawn to a section of the
city where, it seemed to me, a wed-
ding march was being played. I saw ,
here, a small assembly who was wit-
ness ing the union in Holy Bond s of
Matrimony, Eurpri s ing though it
s eemed-of Mary Shepherd and How-
ard L~'nll. The ceremony was being
performed 'by another of myoid
classmates, the .Rev. Waiter Kramer.
He had finally reformed!
T left this happy gather in g ancl
turned my eyes toward a beautiful
co ttage which had attra cted illY atten-
t ion. Here, on the vine-covered porch
sat two s pinsters , who see:ned t o be
patiently waiting. J wondered what
could be caus in g them s o muc ~1
anxiety; but a s they t urned their
faces, my curiosity was at once satis-
fied, for I recognized Madge Melton
and Catherine Ca1'l'oll, who were evi-
dently still waiting for a certa in
course to be finished at Purdue, so
that thei r loved ones might come
home at last. Oh! The cruel wrong
of Fate that ju ggled their nuptials
s o!
Just then I heard a voice cry out:
"Oh , here comes Daddy." The speaker
was a li ttle girl, standing by the gate
with her mother. Rev. Kramer came
up at t'h e moment and the three
started .toward the house, laughing
a nd talking bappil y. As they neared
t.he door, the mother stooped to pick
up the child and I reco g nized her a s
Bernice Bovenschein .
The sound of an arguing voice
drifted towards my ears and I saw a
young gentleman , an agent I pre ·
sume, try ing to persuade the lady of
the house to su,bscribe ' for a cunent
n'agazine. The owner of th e arg uing
vo ice was Odis Moy and the lady
whom 'h e was trying to persuade was
formerly Lena Brawand, but as I at
once concluded, now happily married.
As we neared the out-s kirts of the
suburbs, a huge canvas tent arose
before me, in Which a chatauqua was
holding its opening performance. Th 2
strains of a beautiful melody were
wafted tm\'ards me, and looking upon
the raised platform, L saw Madamo i-
s e ll e Helen Bach , famou s as R pian-
ist. She left the platform amid a
storm of app lause, and the next num -
ber was called. This, to my astonis h-
ment, proved to be the Ori g inal Sl X:\ -

reason , my attention was in sta ntlY
drawn to one of the leading firms

was lolling indolently aga inst a
co unter with an ail' of bored indif-
" ference. However, hi s face bri g ht-
ened visi.bly as two fashionably at-
tire d young ladies entered th e store.
As they swept 'haughtily down the
aisle, I recognized Gladys Nlitcll ell
and Leo na Todd. The floor walker,
approaching them with a smile of ut-
n:ost re s pect looked familial' also; and
as he turned to direct his customers
I sa w the familiar co untenan ce of

keys of a typewriter. Ju st at that
moment, a buzzer s ounded a nd the
girl arose in answer to th e summons
of the ed itor's ring. As she gathered
up h er notebool{s and pen cils and
s tarted toward l!he door , I sa w that

As I became aware of the re sumed

of a myste riou s feeling of awe- decid-

 LINTON HIGH SCHOOL 1919 FOOTBALL SEASON
After four weeks of hard practice,
the first game of the 1919 football
season was played on Octobe r 4th .
Jasonville was our opponent a nd as
the game was played on a very muddy
field, neither team was able to score.
Jasonville had a very heavy and
stron g team, ,but was outplaye d in
(,very stage of the game by the L. H. S.
eleven.
The next game was placed with
Wiley on Octo ber 11th, and the weather
man was again ungrateful to L. H. S.,
as it rained before and during the
game. Linton completely outplayed
\\Tiley, but was unable to sco r e but
once' owing to weather {!ondition s.
In the following week Hathaway pu t
th e team through strenuous practice
so as to develop a machine which
could avenge the team beat by Worlh-
ington in 1918. The game was played
at Worthington on October 18th, in
which Linton ·brought home the baco n.
Our next ga me was with Paris, played
in our city on Octobel' 25th . Paris
had a good team and played a hard
dean game, but again the Red and
Blue was victorious.
Th e next game, with Robinson, Ill. ,
on November 8th, was the greatest
game of the seaso n, as neither team
bad been defeated and probably tbe
Wabash Valley championship depend-
ed, up to that time on the ou tcome of
tbe game. Su ch athletic spirit was
never shown ·b efore in Linton. All
stores were closed on the day of the
game, and the uptown district was
decorated with the. colors of both
sc hools. The game · was witnessed by
the largest crowd ever present at a
football game I In Linton, and rooters
from both schools 'Were accompanied
by a band, which added to fbe spirit
of the occasion. Tbe Robinson team
was considered invincible, and al -
View of the Wiley game tnough Robinson defeated Linton, she
was held to the closest score in sev-
eral games.
The following week the team accom-
panied by a large number of rooters
went to Bicknell. Owing to the crip-
pled condition of <Linton team, after
the Ro.b inson game, Linton was de-
feated by the ·heavy Bicknell team by
a ra ther large score.
Tbe last game of the season was
ll:~red OD Thanksgiving with our old
rival Bloomfield. Although the team
played a hard game, L. H. S. was de-
feat ed by the fast Bloomfield team by
a small score. This ended our foot-
ball season, having won three games,
Robinson game lost three, and tied one.

 TRACK ATHLETICS

Track athletics for the past few years in L. H. S. have not been up
to the standard set by Linton's former stars, Moss, Oliphant and Gill.
This is due to several things: First, lack of a competent coach; second,
1i0 athletic field; third, lack of material with which to work.
But now that we have a. coach who knows track work and such
stars as Wadsworth, Winters and Usrey, it looks as though Linton would
again be placed on the map as "Little Sparta."
Those who expect to be Linton's stars this year ~re:

Half Mile-Bordenet, Johnson, Winters, Steele.

Mile-Usury, Wormuldurf, Clayton.
-
Hurdles-Winters, Wright.
;
Dashes:""-Tucker, Booker; W~dsworth.

 FO·OTB.\LL BANQUET.
On Tuesday, November 30, 1919, the
mothers of our football · heroes gave
them a banquet and dance. The ban- .
quet room was decorated in the school
colors, red and blue.
The menu 'was as follows:
Baited Chicken
Parkerhouse Rolls and Dressing
Mashed Potatoes Waldorf Salad
Celery Pickles
Brick Ice Cream and Angel Food Cake
Mints
After the banquet all pl'oceeded to
the dance hall in the center of which
was a shield bearing the names of
all the football men.
After dancing until 12 o'clock all
departed, voting it the most enjoyable
occasion of the year. The toastmaster
was Mr. Bert Phillips.
Talks were given by MI'. Moy, Mrs .
Witty, Mr. Cravens and NIl'. Bordenet.
SENIOR SOCIETY.
IiI October, 1919, the ·Seniors held
their first and only social event. It
was in the form of a party and was
held at the home of Kern Beasley.
Only about 30 of the Seniors were
S IXTY-EIGH']'
pl'esent, but a very enjoyable even-
ing was spent, playing games and
dancing. Later refreshments were
served.
The chaperones were Miss Duncan,
Miss Overman and Mr. Hathaway.
This is all the society the Seniors
have had (so far), but we have great
hopes for the Junior-Senior reception.
JUNIOR S·OCIETY.
The Juniors 'have certainly been in
Society this year! Nay! We have
been too studious to even think of
pleasure.
The one event of 1919 was in Sep-
tember, and in the form of a wiener
roast. This affair was held at the
country home of Truman Bennie.
Those desiring to go met at the school
building at seven o'clock and were
taken out in cars.
It was supposed ~o have 'b een an
exclueive Junior party, but resulted in
one of those so-called Junior-Senior
receptions. You remember the Jun-
iors brought the refreshments, and by
glancing around (half starved) it was
plainly noticellible that the Seniors
were enjoying themselves.
Miss Overman, Miss Duncan and MI'.
Hathaway were admirable "chaps".
SOPHOMORE CLASS SOCIETY.
Owing to several conditions the
Sophomores 'h ave not been able to have
much society, but what they have had
has been real society. They were en-
tertained at the home of Mr. Carl Win-
ters in November, and it sure was
some party. After all the class 'h ad
either recited or showed their talent
in some other manner, Mr. Hathaway
(Tubby) capped the climax by giving
some recitations and well-doin;,:
everything else imaginable.
Aiter this refreshments were served
and all departed after voting it the
best party they ever attended.
The chapel'Ons were Miss Duncan
and Mr. Hathaway.
SOCIETY FRESH~IAN.
Soon after school started the Fresh-
Iran class entertained at the home of
Misses Elinor and Esther Shaw. The
evening was s·pent in dancing and
playing games after which a marsh-
mallow roast was enjoyed. Mr. Hatha-
way and Miss Schlott were chaperones.
Miss Helen Winters entertained the
class at her country home east of the
city. The evening was spent in danc-
ing and playing games. Dainty re-
freshments were served later. The
chaperones were Miss Duncan, Miss
Corey and MI'. Gunn.

SEVEN 7'Y-ONE
 THE OF FATE THE H-ll
On the morning of March 23, 1917,
the H-ll, with which I was assigned
as Junior electrician, and four other
submai'ines were lying in the harbor
of Felil'stow awaiting signals to sail.
At last, about the time of morning
deck 'watc'h relief, the shore signal
was received and we started down the
harbor in squadron order, we ,being the
Eecond in file.
Before long we reached the open
sea which was very choppy an<;l mad3
it rough ,and slow. It was my first
trip and '! tried to be very exact in
my . reports ' of the batteries Which
were to be given to' the captain every
six 'h ours. There was also a very
great interest shown by the crew as
to where we were to be stationed, it
S EVENTY-TWO
was known that we were to be on
patrol duty. Now the great question
was where?
After about telve hours of zigzaging
we reached a point in the North Sea,
where we dropped out of the squadron
and after taking down the spray
screens we slowly submerged to be-
gin our long vigil for enemy subs.
This period is very trying on the
nerves of the men as no noise must
be made. My own duties allowed me
nothing to do but make out my re-
ports, sleep and J'ead. Occasionally
we would rise to the top to renew the
air supply and to charge the batteries,
but by the end of the fifth day we were
a cross and surly crew, ready to risk
anything for a little action.
At 10: 27 on ~he morning of the fifth
day the gong "to quarters" sounded ,
After we quickly reached our posi-
tions We heard distinctly in the quiet
that followed the throb of ' the pro-
peller of an a,pproaching enemy sub.
The next question was, how were we
to attack? Were we going -to rise to
the top and use the deck guns for
shelling or' were we going to risk a
pedo in that close quarters? We
were not long in doubt. First we feit
the squaring around of the ship to
bring the forward tllJbes to bear wi,th
out rising to the surfa.ce and w~ felt
the two recoils of the ship in succes-
sion as the torpedoes were fired . Then
came a period of stillness, of waiting
to hear the success of the torpedoes,
Then came the great roar of an ex-
plosion, the whole ship reeled and
then darkness.
The next thing I heard was a voice
sa.ying: "Yes, he 'will be alright in a
little while. Tho I myself envy the
captain and the rest of the crew." I
Lried to raise myself but found I could
lWt. Then as I could see nothing, I
tried opening and shutting my eyes,
then came the thought-blind. No that
could not be. Slowly I raised my hand
Lo my face and felt something warm
and sticky. It could be nothing but
blood and I unconsciously moaned.
"What, so soon," said the same voice.
and then a light flared up and I recog-
n ized the face of my friend, the chief
electrician, and the shapes of two men
in the shadows behind him. I also
recognized the small room which we
were in as the forward torpedo room.
Then the match, for such it was,
tUckered (tnd wenn out. I waited a
minute before I spoke, letting these
strange conditions ,bear on my
thoughts.
When I asked of the chief electri-
dan, whom I shall from now on refer
to as Johnson, how we come here he
said, "Some one made a miscalculation
and when the to!'pedo struck the
enemy We were so close that the force
of the explosion bursted the battery
cells and stunned all the crew except
the~e two men and myself. We were
able to rescue none but you befor'e
the fumes of the sulphuric acid filled
all the ship except this small room. The
londition we are in you can imagine
tor yourself." And well r could for
we were held prisoners in this small
room fifty feet 'b elow the surface, with
a limited supply of air, no light and no
known way of escape. Indeed our
hours could be said to be num.bered.
Thinking of all this, I lay quiet wait-
ing for death.
Of course my first thoug hts during
thi ~ time were of home and my young
w:ft!, Pauline, to whom I had bidden
gooJbye the fall before when I en-
listed. Then came the thought of
never seeing her again, and I almost
mO:llled again. I thought of the day
when we received ,the news of father '~
death in France and I wondered what
Pauline and mother would do no '\'
that we were both gone. For was I to
be criticized for considtlring mysel f
dead and as you cou ld say huried ?
'We soon began to tell our life
stories to each other to pass away
time, the thing which was the most
valuable to us. The two men were
mechanics from Glasgow. One seemed
so overcome when he realized our situ-
ation that he remained silent until
the last. The other, as Johnson and I
could hear was beginning to weaken,
of this he himself said nothing, but
we could hear him shuffling his feet,
rubbing his hands together and occa-
sionally moaning.
This was my greatest fear, the fear
of death now that I knew death was
certain was neve~ so great. But oh
God! how afraid I was that I would
show it. How I feared to move lest
I give some sign to the men of my
weakening. When it came my time t'l
tell my story I mentioned nothing of
home and wife, the things dearest to
me, for fear I would break down be-
fore I could finish. It was only when
Johnson 'b egan to speak through the
darkness that I braced up.
Johnson! What a man he was! How
SEVENTY-THREE

I admired a character such as his.
knew little" o'f him "befo're the fight,
but how well r canle to know him dur-
ing th~se fe~~ -hours spent ill that
wrecked sub. He had little to tell of
his life except 'the last ten years which
he had spent jn the navy. He to ld of
his many experiences while witlr the
Russians during the Russian -Japan-
war. But towards the last he began
to t~lk of something which interest-
ed ils "all-ways of escape. He would
_ devise plans and then discard them be-
fore our minds could fully grasp the
greatness and' originality of them.
"While he and the ' other men were dis-
cussing these I felt a creeping drowsi-
l1ess stealing over me.' Unable to re-
sist I fell back nearly overcome by
, the increasing foulness of the ail'.
, ,The next thing r realized was that
some one" was shaking me violently
causing my 'head to hit against the
steel' waU - beside which I was lying.
I soon awakened enough to recognize
Joiin'~on aild at' his direction I crawled
headfirst into one of the torpedo tubes
which was just large enough to admit
my body. It was while this was go-
SE1' ENT-Y-F'O.UR
ing on that I began ·to understand
Johnson's plan. He was going to
ry shooting me tei the surface through
the tube, the same as a torpedo. I played before my eyes and I could also
felt someth·i ng pushed 'into the tube
behind me; it was a life preserver.
I fastened the strap of it to my belt,
put my fingers to my ears to relieve
the pressure which was to come and
waited. First I heard the door clang
and then the sizzling of the com-
pressed a il' escaping into the tube;
then I ,began to feel the pressure of it.
Just when it seemed as though I
was to be crushed the mouth of the
tube opened and I was propelled for-
ward as SWiftly as if fired from a gun.
Upon my first striking the icy water
I began to whirl round and round
though still traveling on a horizontal
level caused 'b y the force of the dis-
charge. When this force had expended
itself, I .began to rise to the surface
otruggling, though I expect my strug-
gles impeded my progress toward the
surface as much as they he"lped.
I could not possibly describe the
way I fe lt during these few minutes,
though it s eemed an eternity to n:e tJ
•
reach the surface. There was a roar-
ing sound in my head, my , lungs
seemed a,bout to burst, bright lights
feel the chill of the icy water . .
Then wilh a bound and a gasp I
reached the top. The cold air seemed
to sear my lungs as I, by deep breath-
ing, tried to stop the pounding in . my
head. Then I fastened on the life-
lOaver. After a while my arms seemed
to become numb and motionless anll
then I forgot everything till now.
The rest of my story as the cap-
tain of H. M. Reliance tells me is as
follows: I was discovered and picked
up unconscious ,by a destroyer, w'dlich
had noticed and was investigating the
wreckage caused by the destruction of
the German sub. As soon as I was
a'ble to tell my story they sent down
divers, but were too late to save John-
~on and the mechanips. I am now
honorably discharged and pensioned
by the government, as the captain tells
me. And I am very anxious to reach
home and be with my people, but can
they, will they, understand?

HOUSE OF THE WHISPERING PINES
I had been in town only a while
when dark clouds 'b egan to gather ill
the north. As I had to cross quite a
bit of low land before I got home, it
seemed that I must start home at
once. The clouds gathered and be-
came blacker and blacker, lightning
flashed, thunder ,began in a low growl
far away and ended near in a 1'01'
that deafened me.
The" farther I went the worse the
storm became. It seemed that I could
go no farther. The lights from my
car couldn't pierc e the darkne ~s.
When it "lig'htninged I could see my
way only a short distance. The road
'was long and lonely. At last I gave
up. I had lost all count of distance,
I ran the car over to what I judged
to be l'he edge of the road and stop-
ped the engine. I waited.
The rain continued to pour in tor-
rents. There was a clap of thunder
N I NETY
and a blinding flash of lightning. I
looked around and found that I was
in front of a ,house which set back in
a grove of pine trees.
I jumped out of the machine and
gradually crawled, walked and ran-
toward the house. Anotber flash en-
abled me to find the door. I knocked
reve ral times Ibut received no answer.
As it was madness to stand there
in the downpour, I tl1Tew my weight
against the door. To my surprise it
s wung back on rusty hinges.
I stepped inside and slammed th e
door. I lighted a match. This en-
abled me to find the door which
opened, out of the hall in which I
found myself, into another room .
Up to this time I had forgotten my
[ earch light. Now it came into ' full
use. I threw its light around over
the room and found that a large
~winging lamp was suspended from
the ceiling in the center of the room.
I lighted the lamp. Its rays showed
me that I was in a long, low ceilinged,
wen furnished rOOlll. It looked as if
sOl!1e one had lived in it just recently .
As-I looked more and lllore around me
I discovered that there was something
familiar about this room.
It came to me like a flash. This was
the old Davis place that everyone said
was haunted. Mrs. Davis had died
there about three years ago and it
was said that since she died such an
unnatural death, she haunted the
place each nig,ht, or at least had for
the last few months.
Other things had been seen also,
but no one seemed to lmow what they
were, as they were only whispered re-
ports.
H did not worry me as people in
this section of the country were afra.id
of their own shadow.

N I NETY-ONE
 The storm had calmed 'by now, but
I knew that t.he creek was up so high
that it was useless for me to try to
get 'home, so I decided to stay all
night. T'h e moon had come out apt!
the sky was clear.
I took the coal bucket and went to
the coal house to get .coal and wood.
I came back ,built a fire in the grate
and settled myself to read awhile .
I had read only a few minutes when
I heard a strange sound in the next
room . It sounded like the opening and
clOSing of doors. This did not worry
me as I supposed wme one had bee']
caught in the storm and had come
here to spend the night. I waited for
ten or fifteen minutes to see who the
intruder might be. No {)ne came in so
I concluded that perhaps I was n:i!:-
taken.
Nothing happened for a few minute -.
Then came a hollow knocking sound
on the window.
I rushed to the window and sa':;
two balls of fire were floating jus t
about a foot a nd a . half [rom the
ground, and just in front of the win-
dow. I turned from the window deter-
N I NETY -7' 1I'O
mined to go out and investigate this
matter. But how? At that moment
a figure dressed in long flowin g white
robes appear.ed between me and the
door. And worst of all it had no head ,
What was I to do? Things grew
worse and worse. The figure retreat-
ed and advanced every time I tried to
get out, it cut off all means of escape
,by coming in between me and the door
or window.
I looked everywhere for some way
to escape, and in so dOing discovere ~l
that perhaps in traveling in circleJ
around the table that I might get in
front of the figure.
It was no use. Everything was
against me. The figure disappeared.
But a pail' of eyes appeared in ever y
dark corner. They seemed to scorn
me in my terror. Cold sweat broke
out on my forehead and I was tr embl-
ing from head to feet.
I determined to make a final effort
to escape. How I was to do thi s I did
not know.
The eyes disappeared. Now was my
chance. I started to the door which
was in the farthest and darkest cor-
nel' of the room. I had almost gained
the door when I ran against somethin-;
which held me 'back like an iron bal'.
1 looked but saw nothing. I took
my search light from my pocket and
saw what 'held me back was a piece
of clothes line which had been
stretched tightly across one end of
the room .
This lead me to believe trickery
was a foot. Then too rem,em'hered ihar.
Mr. James was trying to buy the house
from Mr. Davis who refused to sell it
under any consideration Whatsoever.
Now I had the key to it all.
I went to the next room and there
as I slipped in very softly, found Mr.
James and his son busily manipulating
a moving picture machine. I fa uncI
that the balls of fire were the lights
of my machine which they had run up
close to the window and left the lights
Gn unintentionally. TJ1e hollow tap-
ping was them tapping on the win-
dow with a bottle tied to a string.
We went back the next day and
f ~ llnd that their plates that they were
using on the machine were used to
make the figures and t!he eyes.
The plate with the figure on it was
one of Lot's wife with the background
and head covered over with black
paint. The one with eyes was one of
Ruphert Julian when acting the part
of the Kaiser. It had been treated in
the same way as the other plate.
When Mr. James was called to ac-
count for ·his actions he said that he
was try ing to induce Mr. Davis to sell
his house to him at a low price, as
no one' eIre would want it.
