The Thirteen Colonies were helpless against England until bound together by the Declaration of Independence, then, in the Revolution, they threw off the yoke of oppression forever. As in great countries, so in schools- unity spells progress. This issue also closes the sixth year in the career of the Lorcs, and in this time, through the diligent efforts of each board of editors, our little paper has improved, step by step, while, in most cases, the majority of the student body stood quietly by and looked on. Unity between the LOTUS staff and the student body has been wanting for several years, so next year let us get together and supply this want. Team work is what counts on all successful athletic teams, and team work is what counts in publishing a successful high school paper. Next year, let us have team work, and make it a banner year in the career of the LOTUS. In laying down our work for the present year, the staff extends

DOVER HIGH SCHOOL IQ THE CLASS OF 1915. Tune: XVhen You XVore a Tulip. YVe met here in the High School, gathered here from far and wide, From all the country side, NVe've been the High School pride, From Camden and NVyoming, we have come to Dover High, And now the time has come to say Good-by, Time will not change our love for you, when long years lie between You'll have the love, where e'er we rove, Of the Class of old '15, CHORUS NVhen we were in High School, ln dear Dover High School, This grand Class of old '15, XVe'll miss the blisses. But we know you'll miss us The greatest class you've seen, XYe've made things cheery, The teachers grew weary, And sometimes we thought them mean, NYhen we were in Dover High School, In dear Dover High School, The grand Class of old '15. 1 The love we now will cherish, will not falter thro' the years, Your memory will cheer, VVill ever be more dear: You'll be our Alma Mater and our hearts will turn to you.. You'll iind us faithful to the last and true. Tho' miles may separate us, and in foreign fields we glean, Youll have the love, where e'er we rove, Of the Class of old '15, Contributed.. A clergyman was called out of town one Saturday on a very urgent call. He asked his friend, Rev. Jones, to preach in his absence. Rev. jones had a poor memory, so he had to employ a man to get under his pulpit and prompt him. It came time for his sermon and the man under the pulpit began, softly: Brethren, my text this morning is Moses. Up above- Brethren, my text this morning is Moses. The man beneath- Moses was an austere man, who made atone-V ment for the sins of his people. The man above-- Moses was an oyster man, who made ointment for the shins of his people. The man below-- Now you've gone to work and spoiled it all. The man above- And, brethren, the man went to work and spilled it all. -Ex. '

From all prospects the LoTL's will be clear of debt and the slate wiped clean for a fresh start in September. In closing, the Editor wishes to extend his most hearty apprecia- tion to the members of the stat? for their faithful co-operation in pub- lishing eight issues of the Lo'1'L's during the past school year of IQI4-15. FINALE VVell, it is all over! That annual High School show, known this year as Under Four Flags. And it was a howling success. To Miss Mabel Tebo, Miss Lodge and Miss Moore, we owe our most sincere appreciation for their diligent work. Miss Tebo, the au- thor of the sketch and trainer of the choruses, rendered her services as an alumnus of D. H. S., free of charge. Miss Lodge and Miss Moore faithfully attended all practices, and their services were indis- pensable. VVe also wish to extend our thanks to Miss Frances DeWitt and Messrs. Wim. Clark, Maurice NVyatt and XVm. McBride, all of whom so willingly gave their excellent talent for our benefit. As a result of our hard work, in preparation for this musical com- edy, we cleared the neat sum of one hundred and forty dollars. With this we will be able to pay most of our debt incurred during the past year. Last year the 'fFunny Moonl' earned us a reputation, and such a successful production as Under Four Flags established this reputation in such a way that all succeeding entertainments given by Dover High must be of excellent caliber.
