Lawrence High School - Lawrencian Yearbook (Cedarhurst, NY)

THE LA WRENCIAN 27 This is the one and only issue of the Lawrencian to be published during: the current school year. For the same reasons which prompted our decision, namely, finances, many other schools have either adopted our idea or have reduced their magazines to newspapers. Therefore, this is not an excuse but merely a statement of the facts, our exchange is not as large as it will be and we lack others’ opinions of the Lawrencian, which may be for the best after all. However, all things considered, we have received quite a good number of fine little papers and a couple of excellent magazines. These may be found in the library by the inquisitive. Now for the one part of the magazine we don’t have to bother writing. A few choice bits: Is Your Girl Like This? “Your teeth are like the stars,” he said. And he pressed her hand so white. And he spoke true, for, like the stars. Her teeth come out at night. —The Kalends. They Say We Have Them Like This Too. Can You Believe It? Hist. Teacher: George, where is South America? George: On page 10. —The Chieftain. Oh, But How True! You can always tell a senior— But you can’t tell him much. (From a poem telling way to distinguish students) —The Alerte.

26 THE LAWRENCIAN Reflection on being kicked out of Study Hall. Mrs. Balcom You’re walcom. Reflection on a depression situation. This depression Keeps us guession. Reflections on the oddities of human nature. There are too many Santa Clauses In the storses. Reflection on the countenances of those who read the “Chatter.” The “Chatter”? No matter. Reflection on general concensus of opinion. Regents are consigned to the alley With other things and Rudy Valle. Reflection on why students chew gum. Chewing gum Sum Fun!

28 THE LA WRENCIAN “The jig is up ’ said the doctor, as the patient with St. Vitus dance died. —The Maroon Echo. Vanity Street—The hall in front of the girls room. —The Clarion. Our Sentiments Exactly. “It seems to be the accepted belief of the students of Delaware Academy that the Exchanges are merely for the benefit of the staff. Let us hasten to correct this mistaken idea. “The Kalends” lists among its exchanges magazines and papers from all over the United States. Each of these publications contains entertaining as well as worth while material which you would surely enjoy reading.” —The Kalends. And since it is customary to herein inscribe our opinion of those publicationns with which we exchange we set about doing so to the best of our ability. The Kalends, Delaware Academy, Delhi, New York. One of the best magazines we have received. It contains a multitude of well written articles and really interesting stories. The Clarion, Lynbrook High School, Lynbrook, New York. A neat little publication. We suggest a little less space devoted to school news, and a few more columns to come under the Variety classification. The Bulletin. Oceanside High School, Oceanside, New York. A newsy bi-weekly, but supplementary matter is needed. The Alerte, Baldwin High School, Baldwin, New York. A compact complete weekly. The Chieftain, Sewanhaka High School, Floral Park, New York. A well-proportioned school paper. An exchange column or something of the sort would not be amiss, however. The Maroon Echo, Bayshore High School. Bayshore. New York. An excellent paper. However, a short story or the like would help greatly. These magazines and papers will be placed in the library together with that matter which may come in. in the interior, for the inspection of the school body. BERNARD HELFAT.
