i, CI' Clam Grozrcb Nothing's going right around this school. Even Mr. DeYoung's hair is growing back again. These darn class shieks are so conceited they never take a girl out. Take for instance Chris Olsen. We pity Richard Clever when Marie hooks him. Why, she's so cranky now, you have to think twice before you speak to her. It's funny how partial Miss Hanson is to a few of the Senior girls. If you have a sen on the end of your name youre sitting pretty. Gee, the Senior play was dumb. Only eleven characters and forty-three in the class. Doesn't Elsie Anderson have a pull with Mr. DeYoung and Chuck Smith? just because she types their letters, they give her a half dozen A's. Ever since someone made the bright crack about Damon McAllister looking like Mussolini, all he does is throw dirty looks at everybody. Lily Bakum certainly can get by with murder. You have to have a sweet smile and be Mr. Lees secretary, and you can do anything around this school. And Williarn Balsleyvever since he jigged at the basketball game no one can talk to him. Mildred Blessing surely thinks she can sing. Lucky she does, because no one else cares about it. She'll probably end up by singing songs for the town of Buckley. Helen Squier certainly thought she had Thor Edman cinched. It's awful the way she hangs on to him. Too bad the Annual didn't have a decent editor this year. Deno Garh had his mind on that girl in Junior High and let the Annual go to hang. Corinne Eountaine thinks shes quite a dramatic speaker, but don't you get tired hearing her gift of gab all the time? I'll certainly be glad to get out of this school tif I ever doj-theres no justice at all. Unless you happen to be a blonde or president of the Student Body, you haven't 1 chance. Yes, just because Barney Lind is president of the S. B. A. he gets complimentary tickets to all the plays. Some of the teachers get away with murder. Miss Hanson assigns 50 pages of Shorthand and a month's Bookkeeping for one day, and then if you don't finish it, She keeps you after school until six o'clock. Guess she thinks this is the grade school. Miss Kochevar and Mr. Ashim think they are superior beings and teachings the most important subject in school. Look at the 5,000 word themes Mr. Ashim assigned. Oh, well, I should worry, I copied all mine anyway. Yes, and while we're on the subject of teachers, did you ever notice the three little angels in Miss Smith's Civics Class? Anything Bertha S., Elsie Anderson, and Lily Bakum say is right. Yes, and did you ever notice how Florence Christensen and Francis Brown argue with their teachers? Of course, it goes over big with Mr. Ashim. Francis even gave him his picture. That's one way to pass. Twenty-:ix

MANAGER: You bet. And I noticed in the paper this morning that Oliver Anderson, night watchman at the Olsen Airplane Company, captured two desperate criminals single handed. That's one time Oliver was awake. SECRETARY: The Bakum and Jensen Secretarial School needs a new teacher in a hurry. MANAGER: Send Agnes Wierleski to the rescue. SECRETARY: I saw Damon McAllister and Corinne Fountaine's wedding in the paper the other night. MANAGER: Damon finally caught up with Corinne, after a ten year race. SECRETARY: The Sambila Amusement Co. wants a good clown. MANAGER: Chris Hansen, the clown of E. H. S., is out of a job at present. Wc'll give it to him. SECRETARY: Barney Lind, Editor of the Lind Scandal Sheet, needs someone to dig up a few good scandals. MANAGER: Annie Person's family has dug up more dirt than anyone else in Selleck. She should satisfy Barney. SECRETARY: The Kranc Wleinerworst Factory wants a good dog catcher. MANAGER: Bernard Yost would make a good Pied Piper. His cornet technique is wonderful. SECRETARY: Marcella Fleider and Chris Olsen seem to be doing well in their new busi- ness. They just purchased an orphan asylum. They need a manager. Why d0n't you try that? MANAGER: Well, since this employment bureau is going out of business, I guess I will. Wliy don't you accept their secretarial position? SECRETARY: I guess I should. We'll be together then-and you know how successful we have been here. Let's go to lunch. Clem Molto Tn Be, Not To Seem To Be Deep down in the heart of every young American man or woman lies an ambi- tion of more or less intensity to become great. To study the noble deeds and great advancements of others is to long to do something equally as grand ourselves. We should all like to be heroes, and immortalize our names for future generations to applaud. But then when we stop to think of our conditions as compared to those we seek, we are appalled. We see how much we lack in knowledge, position, wealth 0: power,-4 and we tell ourselves, discouragingly, that there is no success to be won by us. Shakespeare said, Some are born great, mme achieve greatner,i', And .mme bare grealnwif I'h7'll.l'l upon them. No one is born great. He may be born of the most noble ancestry and into the loftiest positions, but he is what he makes himself--not what he seems to be. In our lives we can be what we will to be, and not what we seem to b:. The worst enemy that any individual ever has to conquer in this lif: is Self . To be master of one's self-the conquerer of one's own faults and weakness-means to be master of the world, for to the one who has acquired perfect self-control there is no such word as defeat. It was said by a wiseman of old: He that ruleth his spirit, is greater than he that taketh a city. If we plant and cultivate within our hearts the seeds of truth, honor, virtue, un- selfishness and purity, we shall build for ourselves a character that will stand fast through all the storms of time. To Be. N07 T0 Seem To Bef! Let us hold to this great ambition and try with our best efforts to fulhll it. And always remember the advice that Polonius gave to his son: To lbine cuvz ,telf be Hue, And ii mutt follow ar lbe nigh! the day, , Thou mntt not llaen be julie lo any man. Twenty-five

Marie Morris is better at arguing than either one of them. The only trouble with Marie is that she always says the wrong thing. Harold Hawkins ought to wake up and edit a High School paper-not a junior Class and Hi-Y Review. Yes, and did you ever see that bone-crusher Howard Campbell in a football suit? They ordered his from Omar, the tentmaker. Bobby Caldwell certainly thinks he's a slicker, ever since he's had the lead in the Senior Play. He'll probably go to Hollywood and try to play opposite Greta Garbo. Talking about drivers, isn't Bertha Seibert the worst driver you ever saw? Edith Erickson is another one who has a son tacked on her name so she gets by all right. Gladys Erwin surely thinks she's smart' --sporting around jewelry. Robert Douglas. Fred Herrington, and Norman Melsness are always tired in the summer. They hike to Lost l.ake and it takes all the school year to get rested. Emily Merritt and Thorsten Edman should attend to their own business for a change. One always knows what the other is doing. Rushwood Warner and Sidney Williams should be careful or they'll get brain fever. Rushwood is nearly a second Webster now. We have a Girls Club in this school, but it's only for girls. so it's kind of dead. Poor Oliver Anderson leads a hard life. He only takes two subjects, but these crude desks we have. are hard to sleep in. Esther Paulson certainly is a hard-hearted blonde. just think how she gave Bob Grothen the cold shoulder. Agnes Wierleski is wasting her time pounding a typewriter. She should get a cash register. Velma Smith is one of these people which every school has. She is always hound- ing everyone for news for the Hi-Merc. When Edith and Bernard Yost leave school, the ll have to move near a boiler 5 factory to get some noisefthey can't make any themselves. Miss Kochevar should look through her vast collection for something else to say but Everyone take HIS seat. Miss Smith should make a good financier. She had the Girls' E Club turn 32.65, obtained from the sale of hot dogs, over to the Student Body and then she hands in a bill for 3335 for girls' baseball suits. We knew something was wrong when those girls gave up the money. All Mr. Smith wants is bigger boys and bigger gates. That's two things he can't get enough of. I just found out why Miss Hodges and Miss Gray fined us so heavily on books and gum-chewing. They are going to Europe. Mr. Powers looked vicious when he started the races for the inter-class track meet, standing there with that gun and his Texas drawl. Twenty-:even
