Editorials We, the Board of Editors, respectfully offer The Cardinal to the members of the East High School as the result of our first attempt at getting out a high school publication, and as the Annual of the Junior Class of ’08. We have not tried to make it entirely a funny book; we have only endeavered to make a part of it so, and hope that this, as well as the more serious pages, will meet with the approval of our school, both classmates and teachers As the present book is the first annual ever published by any class in the East High School, we intend that it shall serve as a precedent for other class annuals. It is our hope and desire that The Cardinal will help to prolong the remembrances of the many happy hours that we and our classmates have spent in the dear old East High. Soon there will be a great unheaval in the world of law. Why? Because a prophet will arise in the midst of the Pharisees. Who is this great Prophet? E. Herbert Nicholas, unmarried, nationality English, age 29. late of East High School. It is too true. This noble man, this Adonis, this credit to the unparalleled science of Physics, is going to depart, and. Like some unsubstantial pageant faded. Leave not a rack behind. We grow poetical. We never had a teacher dear. One whom we thought would never stray. But what he surely left the school And always ’twas for better pay. We think that it is time that the fights between the different classes of this school should cease. They disturb and annoy the teachers and all pupils in the rooms who wish to study. They also tend to destroy the school spirit. If less time were spent in fighting for one’s class and more for the school it would be much better. But the chief reason why these struggles are bad and useless is because it is so plainly evident that the Juniors are the only class in the school worthy of notice, and that it is extremely foolish for any other class to dispute it. especially as they are sure to be defeated in any attempt.
