It has the approval and active support of A. P. Cope, county superintendent of schools and each of the five superintendents. It is conducted by these High Schools for three major purposes: to foster, sponsor and ex- change High School and Inter-High School activities of the respective schools; to inform the public of this section about matters pertaining to the school life for which their taxes are paid; to develop the literary talents of the stud- ent editors of each class of the five schools. Lehman Township 0. H. AURAND, Supt. 0: 3 The two following articles were written by students in the Freshman and Junior classes of Lehman Migh School. The poem, “A Snowfall,” was inspired by the late spring storm of a few weeks ago. : Thinking People Thinking people no longer expect tomorrow to be the same as today. They do not expect the school merely to preserve the past, but to help cre- ate a better future. = We insist that new ideas must come in, and they can only take a place in our thinking as they crowd old ideas out of our minds. The thinker is not the one who boastingly says, “I know.” He is humble, for he has found that things are changing so rapidly in this age he must keep an open mind, and not be too sure of anything. It is the egotist, the one who is not in the habit of thinking things out, who is the most insistent user of “TI know.” He is the one most dif- ficult to bring to a new way of think- ing. Our thinking gets out of date as do styles of clothes, types of ma- chinery and other things. + We should be as ready to discard old out of date ideas as to discard the ox-cart for the automobile. As we have said, it is the modern public schools that help train our minds. PAUL RICE—Grade Nine. A Snowfall When I awoke I found The world changed in a night, And to the trees was bound A ‘glist’'ning robe of white, And there upon the ground A carpet met my sight. And when I looked around ’Twas shrouded deep in light. Now there was scarce a sound Yet I could feel the might ‘hat made this scene profound. Here everywhere the right With beauty did abound. Then on a mountain height I saw a tiny mound. Then to this spot I went A fairyland to see, But to it God had lent A special joy for me, From cares myself to vent And fill my soul with glee. Someone the silence rent He came from o’er the lea, And asked what it had meant. “For me ‘it seems to be A place where souls pent From sorrows are set free.” And then my head I bent And this shall be my key From heaven it was sent. - LOUISE BROWN-—Grade 11. Dallas Borough Lake Township CALVIN J. McHOSE, Supt. Who's Who In K. T. H. S. Senior Class Harry Allen Harry Honeywell Allen, Jr. son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Allen, of Alderson, was born in Virginia, 1911. Harry began school at Laketon as a member of the First Grade and completing the grade course, entered high school with the hon- or of being first in his class. In high school Harry found an entirely different life awaiting him, but he, a young adventurer, successfully mastered the. new studies and soon found time to de- vote to various school activities and clubs, such as the Thespian Literary Society and Athletic As- sociation. During the term of ’28 Harry was manager of the boys’ basket ball team, and was a suec- cess at managing as well as at studying. This term (’29) he has been chosen by the class to act in the capacity of president, and in him we have a very capable leader and advisor. Now, as for personality and character of this week’s “Who's Who” Harry has a very pleasing personality, and all who come in contact with the Senior President will agree with us. With the strong forceful character this young student possesses, there can be no doubt of his future success, both in business and well, other things, and we all know that “Harry has personality, Harry has lots of pep, So with these two things AND a Durant car, He'll surely get there yet!” } = y ' Financial Standing The treasury balance is the amount neld in the United States treasury each day after all the government re- , ceipts and payments for that day bave heen taken care of. o— Her Claim to Distinction Virginia Dare, the first child born in America of English parents, was born on Roanoke island, then Virginia. but now North Carolina. in 1587. 0 jeg 1 uE Fairy Tale ¥ #A Once upon a time a truck went into the ditch as a result of the driver try Ing to edge over enough so a coming flivver would have plenty of room t¢ pass. - Cincinnati Enquirer. -Our hearts are a lake of tears and an OFFICE DOG".

Vig I fain would spend my days In this dear old town: Of many curious ways. And often do I think When the stars are shining down There never were such lovely kiddies As the kiddies of our town. 20 0am 0m 0U 0). aman 030 - 95 They banish dull care away They banish every frown, So charming are the kiddies The little kiddies of our town. Now I do not care for fame Neither for renown All I need in this world Is the love of'the kiddies of our town. There is Bobbie, Alden, Dicky and Buddy And they always find the plates that are muddy, But they're all very sweet And for cut youngsters They can’t be beat. And aren’t there any girls? You bet! And they surely are the nicest yet There is Anna, Beverly, Jane and Rita too, And when you travel down the street You'll find Nancy Lou. Of course I must say they sort of pay For their care as they go along For folks when they are grown And are left all alone Just one person in the house x With no one to call, or need us at all And everything’s as still as a mouse I think we’d give worlds just to live Again with the kiddies we miss And every task our kiddies could ask Was paid for by a hug and a kiss. For somehow we know as older we , grow : As sure as the sun shines above ache With no kiddies to work for or love May love supremely bright But on each head a crown And may happiness ever Cling to the kiddies of our town. —G.
