These boys are effi- cient traffic cops who make life at Hughes saler and more pleasant.

STUDENT AID FUND CRCWS Clink! Clink! Money was dropped into the mite boxes that appeared several weeks before Christ- mas. The offerings were turned into the office for the Student Aid Fund. This fund lends a hand to students who otherwise would not be able to continue their education. Paper, car tickets, clothing, or whatever it is that is needed to give them their chance come from the mite boxes at Christmas. Cookies, Candy, and novelty sales by home rooms help to swell this fund. Half of the proceeds of the Sage production of Old Doc, went to this worthy purpose. One of the finest things about this service is that no one but the person to whom it is rendered and those in charge need ever know about it,-one more democratic cus- tom that must and shall be preserved. ART LEACUE h BEAUTIFIES HUCHES Bubble, bubble! Sparkling water continually plays i11 the exquisite Boy and Dolphin Rookwood fountain, in the front hall. This is only one of the many objects of art and beauty that adorn Hughes-gifts of the Art League. Nor is beauty all that is provided. Besides performing the practical service of quenching thirst, this fountain is a boon to the practical joker. The goon'l with the perverted sense of humor places his finger over one of the spouts as an unsuspecting per- son drinks from the other. The angry sputtering that follows sends the trickstcr into gales of laughter. The Art League, since its very beginning, has been collect- ing paintings for the school. In selecting the pictures the League has made a point particularly of purchas- ing those by Cincinnati artists. Mr. Siehl supervises the collection of Art League funds by home room rep-, resentatives. - Page 13

In answer to the needs of a country at war, the air raid wardens at Hughes have taken their place i11 the Army of Civilian Defense. Sixty-one seniors boys under Commanding Colonel Louis Doerman and Lieutenant Colonel Joe Nielander patrol the halls during Air Raid Drill. Half a dozen of the wardens, with Mr. Otterman, spent an entire Saturday in reorganizing the Air Raid Drill system. XfVhen it be- came necessary to sandbag certain windows, the boys rolled up their sleeves and put in three tons of sand, supervised by Mr. Schaffer. Buckets of sand and shovels have been located throughout the building where they can be reached at once in case of an emergency. Sand is useful in extinguishing incendiary bombs. The pails and shovels were label- ed by Mr. Porter. XVardens have learned the use of fire extinguishers. All wardens have been assigned specific stations. The boys have taken their parts efficiently in air raid drills and helped Hughes to feel prepared, come what may. A movie demon' strated to the student body the proper way to deal with incendiary bombs should air raids bring them to our roof tops. The boys who take priming made the affective aid drill station and fire drill signs which help us to know what to do and where to go in case of an emergency.
