This year we have seen it change from magazine form to the newspaper size. The last issue, namely, The Tiger,’’ resumes the magazine form. For many cuts printed in this issue we are indebted to former ( lasses and wo sincerely thank the said classes for their use. From a financial standpoint our success has come thru the business men and the loyal subscribers in the student body. The contribution box has also been used a great deal this year and we wish to thank those who were interested enough In their paper to put forth the same effort for it. Credit was not always given, as sometimes we were always glad to receive articles or suggestions from the student body, and remember—your paper is what you make it. We wish the Orange and Black all success in future years. MAItGARITR SPItOTT ' tiss Barney Hoel-Ross Business Col. (4) “How We Ramble. A High School Printing Press HAST year the O. B. staff left a neat little sum in the bank, and this year we hope to do the same. This sum is not designated for any sole purpose, but it has been suggested that it be used for starting a fund for a printing press. This would be a very fitting use for it. If a first-class printing press were secured, a great expense would be saved annually, and it would only be a matter of a few years before the press would pay for itself. Besides printing the High School paper, all bulletins, programs, advertisements, etc., would be printed here in our own school and the expense of having it done elsewhere avoided. If the opportunity were only given, there are many students who would like to study printing and newspaper work. In some high schools they have classes in these subjects and put out note-books which sell at about three cents profit. Static and X-Ray Machine J vHESE two machines came into the possession of the High School this past year. The static machine was presented by Dr. Bull and the X-ray machine by Dr. Henderson. These machines add a great deal to the equipment of the Physics Department and have been used many times this HENRIETTA STARK Hank” Spanish Club (4) I’m Saving up My Dough for Rae and Me.

One of the most delightful picnics of early spring was enjoyed by a group of young people at Liberty Cap a few nights ago.

The usual picnic lunch was served at 6, and games and stories took up the remainder of the evening.

With these two excellent machines it Is possible to make many experiments that could not be performed without them, and the entire High School wishes to thank these two prominent physicians for their appropriate gifts. The Last Day of School CHE last day of school had arrived, and outside the door of the little log school an assembly of boys and girls and parents stirred restlessly and noisily about, waiting for the schoolmaster to come and unlock the door. Every one was dressed in his starchy, newest clothes, and some uncomfortable-looking specimens were in evidence. Jud Baker, who appeared every day in school in a hickory shirt and patched homespun trousers, and clumsy shoes when he was not barefooted, was now arrayed in a white shirt—from Heaven knows where,—a rusty, black coat and a derby hat, evidently resurrected from his father's wedding attire. Two boys, on the lookout in the old oak tree at the gate, heralded the approach of the master, and turmoil followed the announcement—frantic mothers seized excited young hopefuls and put useless touches to their disordered appearance. Slowly the master drew near, walking carefully and basking to the last degree in the reverence due his superior wisdom. He realized fully how dreaded was his approach on any day save this. In one corner by the lilac bush, a group of the most abused assembled, and, as Master Finch drew near, they broke with that age-old chant which assuages all previous insults: “Good-bye Latin, Good-bye French, Good-bye hard old hick’ry bench. Good-bye scholars. Good-bye school, Good-bye teacher—darn ole fool!” The more timid of the children stood on the beaten path and gazed with wide-eyed admiration on the brave boys who so dared to taunt the master. He was ignoring the song with a magnificence of long years’ practice and prolonging the enjoyable ceremony of opening the door for the last time, till the next fall: then the door swung open and a general in-rush followed. The school room had been scrubbed clean and only a few “hard-boiled” spit-wads clung to the ceiling. The benches were arranged in rows along the room, and everything had been taken from the platform save the master’s desk and a geography globe. As soon as everyone was seated and the noise had somewhat subsided, the master came to the front of the platform and made a short speech which affected every pupil the wrong way. For who could listen to the master’s voice harshly administering rebukes and scathing remarks, without comparing it with the school the following term. On closing his speech, the master said, in a pompous tone: “Bessie Brady will now give a recitation, ‘MableV Amid a patter of applause, Bessie made her way to the front of the platform and, clasping her hands before her, began to speak in a trembling voice. “Mable, gentle Mable—” but then she lost control of her voice and stopped, clutching nervously at her dress. Drawing a deep breath, she began again: “Mable, gentle Mable, with her face against the pane.” A great tear started in each of Bessie’s eyes, and she stopped, gaspingly, once more. Again she drew a nervous, hysterical breath, this time sobs were shaking voice and body—“M-M-Mable. g-g-gentle Mable, with her f-f-face against the p-p-pane—” But Bessie gave one wild glance at the giggling assembly and fled sobbing to her seat. After the laughter had somewhat subsided, the master again arose. “This time John James Car- GRACE WAGLER Waggle” “If a Wish Could Make it so.” FRANK WATSON Frankie Hoel-Ross Business C L (4 Football (3) (4) Track (3) Everybody Calls M« Homey.
