LOUISE ALLEN. Dear Robert: Your letter was very interesting . but being, of more interest to our 1 student body president who arranges " the assemblies than to the public, ' it was turned over to him. THE EDITOR, r MUSIC INCREASED I The regular Friday assembly which ' was called to order by our illus- 3 trious student body president, ought " to more than satisfy the crying de- , mand of the students for a shorter 1 and more musical program. The first number on the program [ was a piano selection by Paul God- dard entitled, "I Surrender Dear."! 1 He played as his encore, "You Call It Madness But I Call It Love." Orlean Monson then gave an ex- ; cellent and amusing reading, "The . Tomboy." We were next honored by two se¬lections from the Weber trio which is composed of Grant Passey, Charles Chandler and Walton Foulger. Our own saxophone quartet, com¬posed of Drew Peterson, Fred Humiss, Jack Walton, and Frank Aus-tin, entertained us with two numbers, "The Elephant's March" and ' "Twilight in the Mountains," after which assembly adjourned. BEA ALLEN. SPECTATORS' TREAT What could be sweeter in the winter time (for the onlookers) than a nice icy sidewalk? Imagine being I seated on the steps of our ancient. J but precious, alma mater, viewing I ! the masses. An aggressive student seeks to lead the goodly band. He slips and falls to the ground cursing his luck. You laugh and exclaim, "Wasn't he graceful? I couldn't have done better myself." After watching such scenes you decide to try your luck. You walk cautiously for a while and finally decide it's a cinch so you trip merrily along. All of a sudden you follow in the footsteps of afore-mentioned student and rediscover the art of blushing. Maybe it isn't such a rare sport after all to watch the plight of aggressive students. Even a bare school room can be made attractive and home-like. One is always impressed with the cheer¬fulness of Mrs. Wade's room. Soft- gleaming colorful curtains at the windpws create a home-like atmos¬phere. On the walls are many good pictures of interesting subjects. In the back of the room is a lovely fern, and on her desk is a small pepper plant with its saucy red peppers, both of which add charm. Bright sunshine floods a spirit of warmth and well being and is a greater incentive to study. JANE KENNEDY. What makes Alden B. look so very happy these days? Did he get the date he was after from the little girl with the dimples who goes un¬der the initials of M. B.? If so, how does he do it? Mr. Smith was giving a science class different examples to make clear the difference between a com-pound and a mixture. "What," he said, "would I have if I took some pure alcohol, added waterrto it, and shoot it jid thoroughly?" "A cock- tail," brightly remarked Lulu. c Mrs. Pin: "You look terrible." t Mr. Pin: "You don't know what c I've been through." Miss Schofield to Marjorie: "Why didn't you brush your teeth?"

George Herman Derry, a well known educa- tor and sociologist, has a different a opinion. In fact, he says, "In the 1 tradition from which all our mod- ern culture has sprung, an art s means the right way of doing things, c To play the game of life, your t daughter needs those personal pow- e ers which, for this modern age of i ours, I have ventured to define as 1 the seven liberal arts." The first of the liberal arts as de¬fined by Dr. Derry is: The art of be¬havior before God, character—the power of self-knowledge, self-rever¬ence, self-control through respon-R siveness to motives, values and ideals that find their deepest and l only enduring sanction in profound and fully realized religious convic- j tions. The second of the liberal arts asi} defined by Dr. Derry will be given in next evening's notes. Watch for L it. POLLY WITH A PAST It also was an unheard of occur- c rence among proper people to take a swim at dawn in next to noth- If ing—in fact, just a trifle. Madamoiselle Bady was indeed a character to be evaded—too notorious and un¬conventional by far to be associated i with. To be continued tomorrow. x M. J. W. — j THREE IFS If quite a number of our good citizens are not convinced that we need a new high school there just isn't any convincing possible. c If you think that shooting is the i only thing learned in the old shack known as the rifle range you are greatly mistaken. The aspiring marksmen gather around the small stove and everything from fishing technic to the principals of high so¬ciety is thoroughly discussed. If other students feel as I do they are at this minute wondering what has happened to Aunt Jane. Aunt Jane is the best authority to con¬sult when in doubt and by writing her you help enlighten others who most likely have the same question in mind. JAMES GIBSON. DIARY OF A DAMSEL Aftermath of the week-end: Now that the last minute skirm¬ish is over in which I studiously endeavored to placate various teach¬ers, I have a few moments in which to muse upon the vagaries and in¬consistencies of the members of the teaching profession. The past week¬end was spent in a conscientious effort to complete "makeup" work, read fifteen short stories, and pre¬pare promising traces of applica¬tion to Monday's assignments. As a result, certainly much too cruel for a mere senior, I feel as if I hadn't visited the land of dreams for ages; my tired brain is rebelling this very second; I don't know whether two and two make and equal four or ninety-nine—and really don't care. Sundry professors of modern edu¬cation can't "have their cake and eat it, too." I wonder which is most to be desired—scholarly preparation on Saturday and Sunday, or studious brilliancy the rest of the days of the week? Oh, well, I don't intend to worry myself out of a refreshing nap. A siph. a vawn. a drooping head: contact with a hard desk, slumber, and dreams of a zero in English and an "unprepared" in history. SUSIE SEVENTEEN. ANCIENT HISTORY (Lesson No. 1) Note: This material is taken from the O. H. S. scrap book for the school year of 1924 and 1925. A delay in the shipment of R. O. T. C. material has occasioned a delay in the issuing of suits and ma-terial. Sergeant Mayer reports. If I know anything about the R. O. T. C. I'll bet the boys were just in tears. Yeah? Teachers were somewhat dis¬turbed today by the annual request: to fill the teachers' registration 1 cards asking for their experience, training, age, etc. In regard to age one teacher replied, "I am over 21." Well, pl-lease. Harry Lyon, Andy Beck, Paul Wilson, Miriam Cain, Genevieve Madsen, Jack Madsen, Conrad Fernelius and other alumni students visited the school during the week. Even in those days the old grads came back to annoy the teachers and students. Attention was called Thursday to a student, who walks in from Riverdale (about five miles) to school every morning and then takes drill for exercise. Can you beat this? Absolutely not, and what's more, I'm not going to try. BILL THOMPSON. ZETA PHI XI Again Zeta came forth with a plunge and a splash. And, what a splash. Shouts were heard, heads were seen above water, duckings were given and races were won and lost. Where? How? When? Why? Because we are for health and sports and oodles of fun. Sufficient questions? But before this exciting bit of news comes to a close, I will add: Our ravenous appetites were pleasingly satisfied by John, the head waiter. MILDRED LARSON, Reporter.
