I humbly request that you grant the liberal happiness and the pursuit of food. Will you kindly either have no school in the afternoon' or lengthen the noon hour, from ! to 4, closing at the usual hour. BespectfuUy yours, Richard Overton. Our Dear Richard: We have the same kind of trouble as you do. Only yesterday we had fish for dinner and we spent so long getting the bones out that we had no time, to eat the meat. When the coffee was served our nerves were so badly up-' set, and after that we tried to stir the coffee with the back bone. Needless to say, v.e were in no condition to teach such brilliant minds as yours, as we should have. Since eating fish involves many of the same difficulties as did your dinner, we have decided to do one of two things. Either close* school from 9 a. m. to 12 and from 2 ought to see the decorating committee j to 4, or pass a rule prohibiting homes, sit on the gym steps by the half hourj hotels, restaurants, and soda fountains and make plans for building the prit-lfrom serving either hot food or food tiest prom McHenry has ever had. It which must be eaten carefully. We is only truth that our decorating com mittee consists of real artists and every time the boys drive a nail crooked someone on the committee says, "Now,'that doesn't look nice, does it?" Honestly they make our work terribly hard. Last Saturday the woodwork was begun. Fencing, gates, trellises, arbors and all that sort of thing. Flowers to be sprinkled all over the place. The decorating committee went into Chicago last week to get paper and other supplies which will be necessary to cover the woodwork. By Saturday the nineth, all preparations should be complete. We have the best plans ever, and it looks as if the seniors would get a "real" prom in their honor. Just to show what we think of them we are going to have their class colors worked into all sorts of designs. The committees are as follows: Decorating: Clara Barbian, Adele Pufahl, Catherine Walsh Paul Patzke. t»ufahl, Catherine Walsh, Paul Patzke. lian Baur and Sibre Whiting. Orchestra Arrangements: Richard Stenger and Richard Overton. The finances are handled by Clyde Carr, class treasurer. We never realized money went so fast until we tried this prom. Clyde says, "Even if Washington did throw a dollar across the Deleware he wasn't such a great man, for a dollar went further, in those days than it does now." Miss Oates has a model session hall. She says if she could just put James Fay on the south side of the building and John on the north side and lock all the doors so they couldn't get in again, her class would be almost perfect. "Boys, why do you insist on fighting in Miss Oates' classes?" WE WONDER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PHYSICS CLASS It seems as if they have been showing up without their lessons for awhile and one of the teachers gave this gentle assignment: "Outline the twenty pages assigned and do it in ink for tomorrow." Aha! Seniors! You thot you were going to have a vacation, didn't you? Well summer is coining * THEM CARS! "Bad" and "Ted" must have had their cars out for a good airing last night for Mr. Tallmadge saw them tearing up the streets in town and couldn't even recognize the passengers, but by sounds he knew that one was a girl. Later he came to school and he saw Angela coming up the walk in zig-zagging line as if she were still dizzy from her ride. will advise you later which ohe.is decided upon. Very sincerely yours, The Faculty. CAN YOU IMAGINE? Lillian B. weighing two hundred.: Pauline without a sweater. Hilda in a hurry. Berteel "five feet, six!" Grace a brunette.

He spoke of the value of vaccination and inoculation to us against diseases, such as "Typhoid fever," "small pox" and others. Mr. Dean also said that professionals are working on a serum for "scarlet fever." which mayalsohelp/us in ,the future;;. . HUMOR /Ted:' "There are no grounds "that your father can throw me out on." Elizabeth: "No not in front but in the back there is a soft garden patch." Rosalind'* father: "I never heard of such a nerve; a man in your position askiiyr for tfiy daughter's hand.' ' Joseph : "Oh, my position isn't - so bad. I have a window on one side jund the door on the other." Mayme: "Mother, what did you do when a boy first kissed you?"" Mother: "Never mind." Mayme: '1 did the same thing." Charles; "What is a bluff?" George. "Threatening to break up with your girl if she has her hair bobbed." Mr. Duker: "Is there any questions on today's lesson?" Leo-: "Yes?" Mr. Duker: "What is it Leo?" Leo: "How do they put the cats out in Venice?" ' , • Mr. Duker: "Well come to that later.!- ; ;•/ Raymond: "What are you looking, for, your cap?" Elmer: "Yes, have you seen it?" Raymond: "Why you have it on your head?" Elmer: "That's funny. If you didn't tell me, I would have gone home without it." "A BOTTLE OF MILK" This morning Paul Patzke came to school with a quart of milk in his hip pocket and a weiner sandwich in his vest pocket. We wonder if he stole the milk or if he didn't have time to drink it at home, or if he is on a diet. He took the milk in the sewing room and we didn't see what happened there. Probably he pulled a lot of straws out of his coat sleeve and shared the milk with his cooking girls. We hope so because we have always wanted to believe that Paul was as charitable as he looks. OPEN LETTER TO THE FACULTY Dear Faculty: 'Having talked with many of your members and being impressed with their reasonable and general amiability, I am convinced that they will see the logic of the request I am about to make On Wednesday la A, I left the school promptly at 2 minutes after twelve and sat down at the dinner table two and one-half seconds later. After which, it happens that my mother had soup that day. The soup was so hot that I had to wait twenty seconds for it to cool. The result was that when the pie, which was one of my favorites, was put on the table, I had to eat it so fast that I didn t have a chance to taste it. It was entirely night when I saw an extra piece in the ice box and then I realized what good pie it was. It will be perfectly to you that this state of affairs can not go on. I am becoming naturally sullen and badly emaciated, due to the LITTLE SYMPHONY DISBANDS The Little Symphony disbanded for this year after a long and successful season of musical pleasure. The Little Symphony, which consisted of Ernest Barbian, Richard Stenger, Angela Petesch, Carl Weber, Hubert Schoewer, Mr. Koerner, Mr. Tallmadge, Ida Reynolds and Earl Conway, has had its last practice. The organization has been a new edition to the community enterprizes. It is the first organization McHenry has had, playing classical music. Among the pieces they have played, are the famous numbers as "Angel's Dream," by Rubenstein; the "March Millitaine" and "Serenade" by Schubert. One of the best numbers has been "Dreams of Love" (Liebestraume) by Liszt. We received a great deal of enjoyment out of hearing Ernie playing two lines of a violin cadenza. He finally got it down so it sounded like music. Either that or else we got used to it. Ida Reynolds had received a part too. You remember the story of raising a horse pistol from a colt revolver, that's almost what we did with Ida. We raised a pianist from a natural musician. The collapse of the Little Symphony came about when Ernest got an infection on his lip and Mr. Koerner had to be absent the same night. Needless to say, we could not play an eight instrument selection with only six instruments and so we had to break our last engagement. Unlike most musical organizations this met purely for pleasure. Every Sunday evening they gathered at the home of one of the members and "Were served light refreshments. After the music, when all was over but the shouting, Mr. Koerner would take the trombone, Huppy the piano, Mr. Tallmadge the saxophone and the others would sing some of the popular songs. It was a mighty good little organization. Next year we want to see it again and see it grow. A SWEET OLD THING It was a 'dear old lady's first ride in a taxi, and she watched with growing alarm the driver continually putting his hand outside the car as a signal to the following traffic. At last she became angry. "Young man," she said, "you look after that car of yours,, and watch where you are going. Ill tell you when it starts raining." . • I am; and keep ever burning before my vagrant steps the kindly light of hope. And though age and infirmity overtake me, arid I come not within sight of the castle of my dreams, teach me still to be thankful for life, and for time's olden memories that are good atid are sweet; and may the evening's twilight find me gentle still.--Max Ehrmann. , The so-called artistic temperament explains the failure of innumerable talented men dud women who never get over the frontier line of accomplishment. Symptoms of the artistic temperament should be fought to the death. "" : , '• ; . Work/ work, whether you want" to or not. I throw away a whole day's work sometimes, but the simple effort of turning it out hks kept my steam up and prevented me from lagging behind. You can not work an hour at anything without learning something. The matter of giving life to the pages of a novel is the result of industrious study of human beings. Writing is the result of thinking about thing? to write about and studying the details of contemporaneous life, so that you may set th^m down, not imaginatively but accurately.--David Graham Phillips. " My share of the work of the world may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious. Darwin could work only half an hour at a time; yet in many diligent half-hours he laid anew the foundations of philosophy. Green, the historian, tel'.s us that the world is moved not only by the mighty shoves of the heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker.--Helen Keller. When men are lightly occupied, their amusement grows out of 'their work, as the color petals out of c fruitful flower; when they are faith with him. Yes, he's going to graduate pretty soon and that probably accounts for his scholarly and undignified air. . But all that I can say is that the <*Em Se Ach Ess" will lose a package of brains from the cargo of wit and sense. It may be a small bundle but "good stuff comes in small packages." Elizabeth Vogt I can't tell you what I think of her in words so I will relate a piece of conversation that I heard which was representative of my opinion. "Why would you believe it, Mrs. Mc- Schmitt." continued the brid of a week. "I'fed Henry some biscuits made from a recipe written by Elizabeth Vogt and he didn't complain of his stomarch hurting like he used to do when I fed him some of my own recipe. WJsy, every , time I see Elizabeth Vogt. my mouth waters to think of the delicious things I have made from following her recipes." That's the way I feel," interposed Mrs. MeSchmitt. "Every Thursday when the Plaindealer arrives, I open it to the "Em Se Ach Ess" and glance over the page till my eyes strike the "'Cooking Notes." I read them with as much enjoyment as I would have were I at a banquet. I hear she's going to graduate this year. I guess we'll be out of luck then. We won't fyd anymore of her writings in the school paper then." Paul Patzke It might be well for tate to repeat what others have said "That Paul Patzke ij$ a piece quilt of jokes." "May I take Clyde C. a moment." Miss Miller answered with delight: "Why certainly, take two of them. w Feelin' funny, Sasbox. FROM A ST.

The Juniors have managed the Em Se Ach Ess so successfully that they have decided to let us have it again next year. It will be in the hands of the senior English class hereafter. The junior class meeting, held last Thursday, proved to be very exciting. Certain ones of our more daring classmates ventured to argue for another hall, and not use the gym. However majority rules and these boys were sadly disappointed. James Fay and Bill Martin earned so many bids to the prom that some of the shieks of M. C. H. S. are afraid there will be no fair maidens left to bring to the big "Hop." We hear that Jimmie is going to take three girls and has accepted so many invitations that he is going to hire a North Shore bus in which to transfer them. CONVOCATION Mr. 1>ean, from Crystal Lake, gave a very interesting, talk on health last Wednesday. He emphasized his points very well and we hope that none of us will forget DIAMOND CHIPP1NGS From "Roycroft" Blessed is that man who has found his work.--Elbert Hubbard. The greatest prerogative that man has is his freedom to work. Few words have such individuals, and yet such diverse, meanings to difl^rent people as the word "work," and no form of action has more diversity in its conception, because of difMHng viewpoints, than work. A little child, when asked his idea of work, said, "Anything I have to do is work, and anything I want to -do is play"--which answer showed that the child recognized his relation to that form of activity known as work; also it demonstrated that work had been presented to his mind as drudgery. Drudgery is work which we make difficult; which is done because we must do it, and which we regard with aversion; it is the hard, sordid form of work, seemingly without hope and apart from any of the joy of accomplishment. Work should be a joy; it should be the motive of our lives; and it would be, if we regarded it in the light of its being a labor of love; but we have come to think of what we call labor with almost a sense of pain. Most of us resolve our work into labor and, tfhile it results in accomplishment, it becomes unpleasant and strenuous in the method of its execution. The secret of the true love of work is the hope of success in that workt not for the money reward, for the time spent, or for thes kill exercised, but for the successful result in the accomplishment of the work itself.--Sidney A. Weltmer. / Oh, if they would only let you work. Wouldn't it be fine just to be able to1 work? Do you know the real thing that puts people in their little hospital cots with nervous prostration is not working, but trying to work and not being allowed to. Work never hurt anybody. But this thing of being in the middle of a letter and then rising to shake hands with a man knew you when you were a boy, and then sitting down and trying to catch the thread of that letter again--that's what gives one general debility. Let me do my work each day; and if the darkened hours of despair overcome me, may I not forget the strength that comforted me in the desolation of other times. May I still remember the bright hours that found me walking over the silent hills of my childhood, or dreaming on the margin of the quiet river, when a light glowed within me, and I promised my early God to have courage amid the tempests if. the changing years. Spare me from bitterness and from the sharp passions of unguarded moments. May I not forget that poverty and riches are of the spirit. Though the world know me not, may my thoughts and actions be such as shall keep me friendly with myself/ Lift my eyes from the eartft, and let me not forget the uses of the stars. Forbid that I should judge others, lest I condemn myself. Let me not follow the clamor of the world, but walk calmly in my p$th. Give me a few friends who will love me.for what fully helpful and compassionate, all J lay like rows of green grain, about their emotions are steady, deep, per-; four inches high, frozen by a late petual and vivifying to the soul as is j spring frost to assume a perpendicular the natural pulse to -the body.--John position. I hear rumors to the effect that Paul is practicing to be a novelty vender ir. Italy. Quite frequently he may be heard yelling in the halls: "Boloney (Bologna)" or "grapefruit." Again I say that he is a sly and cunning person hiding behind a face of beauty and innocence. That theory accounts for his acting the part of the slick Van Dusen in the junior play. In other words "the shoe fits the foot," or something like that. J. At_j^L«#jl3F. Ruskin. EZ SEZ Who never sends a ship to sea Will never see his ship come in.

SCHOOL CHEMISTS STUDY COAL DISTILLATION IN LABORATORY The chemistry class distilled coal last week and were very much surprised at the number of by-products that can be obtained from coal. The apparatus used was a glass, egg shaped retort which was connected to several bottles. In the first bottle was some water and a piece of paper that had been dipped in lead acetate. The next bottle was half filled with water; the third contained wet shavings, and th^ fourth contained shavings sprinkled with iron oxide. The last bottle was connected with a glass reservoir, for gas. A tube leading from the gas reservoir had a jet on the end of it at which the gas was lighted during the experiment. Small pieces of coal were placed in the retort and enriched with crude oil. Illuminating gas was passed through the apparatus to force out the air and to test for the air tight condition of the apparatus. Heat was then applied to the glass retort and in a few moments the paper dipped in lead acetate turned black, proving the presence of hydrogen sulfide. The gas passing through the second bottle teaves the ammonia dissolved in water. The gas then passes through the shavings, to be purified, and as it reaches the end of the jet it is ignited by a Bunsen burner. Light oils are distilled over and float on the water in the first bottle. Middle oil, then heavy oil, and finally tar, are distilled over to the first bottle. Asphalt collects in the coolest part of the retort and when the distillation is complete we have coke in the retort. The products obtained from the distillation are: Ammonia water, hydrogen sulfide, light, medium and heavy oils, tar. coal gas and coke. There are many other products. Some of which are: Analine dyes, perfumes, paints, paving materials, disinfectant, oils of all grades, benzine, gasoline, explosives, etc. There is almost no limit to the amount of byproducts that can be" made by the distillation of coal. _-- WRITTEN CARTOONS OF THE STAFF Harold Bacon Just a youth ripening into manhood. I guess he is hired to write the senior notes. You know he's so congenial and big hearted. As I was saying, he really has a big heart, so big that he is willing to share it with some "sugar plum" as he calls his sweetie.

You don't want to miss it if you get a bid, or you'll be sorry afterword. The committees are promising something different.
