LOST, STRAYED OR
STOLEN, OR WHO GOT
THE FRESHMEN'S GOAT

The Freshmen of the high school
are feeling pretty sore just at present.
They were outwitted and outplayed i'll
two games last week. Last week we
gave an account of their defeat in base
ball at the hands of the Juniors. We
now find that they have good cause
to feel down hearted. Friday evening
last the Freshmen class gave party
that was greatly enjoyed by all who
were fortunate enough to be present.
AS is their custom upon all occasions
of importance, the class President,
Fred Strosnider, brought out the
lamb to help him along when he be
came embarrassed or forgot his
speech He would stroke the neck of
the lamb, and the lamb would help
him out by 'baa-ing" for the audience.
Mr.. Strosnider was all logged up in
dress suit which he took from the
clothesline of Aunt Columbia. As you
know Uncle Sam has but one suit to
wear upon public occasions Friday
is wash day with Miss Columbia and
Fred had an easy time in getting away
with Uncle Sans suit. He wore
Prunes Chambers old silk Derby.
There was a tension in the air;
person could feel that something un-
usual was about to take place. Juniors
and Sophomores were whispering and
making signals and signs. Occasion
ally one would cross the room to COM
municate with his fellow cnspirators.
Twice the thing was about to be pull
ed off, but some of them backed
down. Vic Bernard was to snatch the
lamb, pass it to Mac Summers, and
ward off Mr.. Strosnider; the part of
the others was to rush toward the
door to shield Summers from the rush
of the Freshmen. Some hated to
raise a rough house." and it was put
off until the program was finished and
the President, with the lamb in his
arms, had started out into the hall.
Now if you want to get the better of a
man, just get woman to help you.
The conspirators knew this and they
let Miss Gladys Quinville into the
scheme. AS Mr.. Strosnider stepped
into the hall, he was met by young
lady and he couldn't refuse her plea
that "she wanted to pet the lamb E"
He passed it over, of course. She
put it under her let arm, slipped it
back to Vic Bernard, and showed her
right hand into the face of her victim
Strosnider showed her aside, and start
ed down the ball after the disappear
ing Juniors. On the way he passed
Jim Bernard, and somehow or other
his feet came into contact with Jims,
and still stranger is the fact that he
fell to the floor James also respond
ed to the call of gravity and he land
ed squarely upon the back of the poor,
duped Freshman.
The present whereabout of the lamb
are not known The Freshmen be-
eve that Summers and Bernard took
it to the slaughter house, as they did
not show up for half an hour after
the excitement This is hard luck
for the Freshmen They are looked
down upon in every school; they have
no standing among the other classes;
and they have lost their goat"

.CONGRESSOF MOTHERS
ASKS PRESIDENT TO
END EUROPEAN WAR
Delegates Subscribe $500 To
Establish Endowment Fund
For Association

Portland, Or, May 13.-At the earli-
est possible moment btat he deems
wise, President Wilson has been asked
to use the influence of the United
States to end the European war.
The request came from the executive
board of the National Congress of
Mothers, it was announced by Mrs.
Frederick c. Schoff president Of the
national organization, who made her
annual report to the national congress-
convened at the library in Portland,
this morning.
THE board took this course in the
belief that it is the fucntion of our
government to do this she said,
that it is the desire of the govern
ment to do it, and that the president
has inside information and will know
when mediation is feasible.'
This expression of confidence in
President Wilson, as well as every ex-
preston for peace, was greeted with
enthusiasm.
''Mothers and children are the real
sufferers in war; said Mrs. Schoff,
land there is rapidly growing senti-
ment that the people who give their
lives, the mothers and children who are
left broken hearted and destitute,
should have some voice in deciding
whether war is necessary
Mrs, Schoff linked the child welfare
movement and the peace movement, and
urged strongly against the movement
which she said found expression in bills
before several state legislatures, to
make military training compulsory in
the schools for boys aged more than
ten.
'"The lessons of the war that should
sink into the hearts of fathers and
mothers and teachers" she said, care
the need for teaching children the
golden rule as applied to life, an dto re,
sist persistently every effort to bring
militarism into the United States"
Military training for boys she said
should be resisted with all the power
Of organized motherhood as an "ill.
considered effort to graft on our coun.
try a system which has been one Of
the contributing causes of the world
