EDITORIAL S we present this Senior Sickle to you, we believe that you realize that this is the first serious undertaking of a literary nature that E3-11523 we have ever attempted. We are but amateures and, as such, have done our best and we hope that you will be interested in our work. To those who have made possible this Sickle, we say THANK YOU, and we mean it. Included in this number are Mr. S. F. Finch, our printer, who is responsible for the appearance of this issueg Miss Robinson, who has acted as faculty criticg Mr. Reed, who has lent kindly advice in all mattersg the business men of Adrian, who have helped through their their advertise- ments: and last but not least, the board of editors who have contributed the material for this publication. ITH war staring our country in the face, it seems as if Adrian High School should do its part by making a military course compulsory in the school. A great number of schools throughout the country are offering a mili- tary course or are organizing a company in the school. Adrian is said to be one of the most enthusiastic cities in the country aboutimilitary pre- paredness, but its own High School does not live up to the standard of the city, for it offers no advantages in military training. Many may Object to this statement, saying that the junior Guard is a High School company, We admit that it is composed in the main of High School boys, but it is not large enough to represent our High School, for it numbers only fifteen or twenty active members. Others may say, The boys get military training in the gymnasium classes. But the only military training the boys get there is a slight amount of close order drill and only a few of the commands used are military ones. Therefore, we say, Let Adrian High School follow the example of many other schools and make a military course compulsory in the school. QMQMQ

GOOD-BYE Miss Cora Palmer As a teacher of English, Miss Cora Palmer has had a prominent part in the affairs of Adrian High School for the past six years. At the close of the First semester of the present year, she was called to Detroit to beeomea member of the Nordstram High School. lt is needless to say that the good will of the entire student body and faculty went with her. May her success be as marked in her new position as it was at Adrian. Miss Sadie Palmer Detroit called upon us twice during the past year for teachers, and this time it was Miss Sadie Palmer who was to go. Having been connected with Adrian High School for :L number of years as a teacher of history, she has been closely associated with student affairs. Her advice and suggestions were found to be always to our best interests. VVe, as a class, and as individuals, can only wish her the greatest success in her new position as a teacher in Highland Park High School. Miss Lucille Furnas lt is with sincere regret that we announce that Miss Furnas will not be with us another year. The success of the Senior Play was one result of her efforts. She has also im- proved the Lyceum and Athenian greatly during the one year she has been here. We feel certain that everyone with whom she has come in Contact will miss her very much, but wish her the greatest success possible wherever she may go.
