Belmont High School Editorials HE time has come when some award for scholarship should be given. At present in the Belmont High School nothing but momentary glory crowns the work of students who have achieved high rank through hard work. Yet, athletes who spend two months train- ing for a sport are awarded letters ; surely, we should give our scholars at least part of the recognition that we shower so lavishly on those who have represented our school in some contest of brawn. With all due respect to the sacredness of the “B,” it is a general opinion that some sort of a suitable emblem should serve as a substantial reward for scholarship. H. T. B. There is a slight tendency among members of this school to endeavor to show their sophistication by smoking, until it eventually becomes a habit. It is difficult to find a smok er who will endorse smoking as bene- ficial to the body or the mind. Our own records show that cigarette smokers do not usually capture first honors either in the scholastic or sport fields. Therefore, as Seniors, we cannot advise underclassmen too strongly against cultivating such a destructive weakness. H. T. B. The Chameleon, as you probably know, is a small member of the chameleontes family, closely resembling the lizard. The essential differ- ence between the two lies in the fact that the former may adapt his hue to suit the object with which he is in contact. Our Chameleon is not a reptile, but, because it variegates its color annually, and since it may change to meet any situation, this appellation is appropriated. No longer is this periodical an infant; it has grown; it must grow to better the standard set by its previous publishers. Just as science is the mother of invention, determination fosters prog- ress, consequently our lizard now resembles an alligator in size; for determination is the watchword of Belmont High. Skeptics are to be found in school life as well as in business, but it would be a very cantank- erous being, who has the audacity to state that our little pet has not won a high place in the annals of our High School.
