Subscription and Circulation HERALD PRINTING HOUSE, AUBURN, NEBRASKA OW after the faithful service of twenty-six years our old school house gives away to a newer and better structure, and while we rejoice over the prospects of a new school building, still we hate to leave this old one which has served us and our predecessors well. In its halls we have had our social functions, our rallies and have cheered our teams to victory. We can only hope that the new building will serve the classes to come as well as the old building has served us in the past, and that the same class spirit and harmony will prevail in it. The old building was erected in 1886 at the cost of ten thousand dollars. Later the building became too small, so the west wing was built onto it in 1907. No changes have been made in the building since then. The erection of a new High School in the near future was very necessary. The heating of the old building is not sufficient, the lighting is poor and the whole building is unsafe. On May 3rd the old building passes into the hands of the contractor, and soon the new building will be started. It will be one of the best and and most modern buildings in the state. The cost is to be forty thousand dollars- But the erection means more than simply the new building. It means the offering of more courses to the pupils as well as better ones. It marks the point when Auburn High School passes from a weak to a strong institution of learning, and although we are glad to see this change, we regret to let the old High School go from us.

SENIORS are now confronted with a very serious problem; one of difficult solution. This problem is to decide, exactly what they are going to do after completing this year; whether they will continue their studies or not, and if so, what is the best course to follow. Surely all are planning to go on to some school, if they possibly can. In this age of competition the actual need of a higher education is becoming generally recognized. There are some who hesitate to go to college, because they do not see a way to complete a four years college course: but this should not stop them. Go as long as you possibly can and you will never regret it. Many of the Seniors have put off their decisions too long, and at the last moment find that they lack a subject or two, which is needed to enter a preferable college. The Juniors should decide NOW what course they expect to follow, so that they may take the studies necessary for entrance requirements, and save themselves much worry in their Senior year, when they can least afford it, and when, as in most cases, they are in no better position to decide.
