Mr. Clarke graduated from Williams College in 1902, and came from Milford, Mass., where he was held in great respect, to assume the responsibility of our splendid High School. His geniality, thoughtfulness, and tact are greatly appreciated by the students and the faculty. The interest he takes in every branch of our school life is recognized and highly valued. We feel that he is one with us in our work and play. 5

6 THE MAGNET HE editorial staff has been placed on a different basis this year, and the same plan will be carried out hereafter. Five students from the Senior class and three from the Junior class comprise the board. At theclose of the year we will select three more students from the coming Senior class added to the two pre- viously chosen, and two from the coming Junior class to succeed us as the editors of THE Macnet. These editors will be chosen with reference to the amount and quality of the work they contribute ¢Azs year to THE Macnet. All material which we accept cannot, of course, be printed. However, a record will be kept of everything received, and the material will be rated accordingly as the board thinks it deserves. Do not be discouraged, therefore, if vou do not see your story or essay in print, but bear in mind that you are getting full credit for it, and that you may be the lucky one to be chosen for the board next year. Nevertheless, students, do not let competition be your only in- centive to write, for surely you must realize that the success or failure of Tue Macnet depends upon your attitude toward it. Since we have a school paper, most assuredly we want it to be a credit to our school. If each one does his part that is all that is necessary. This year there are no room editors. so each one should feel it his duty to jot down anything funny that happens in any class. which he may attend, and pass it immediately to the School Note | Editor. In this way all classes will be represented in School Notes, and certainly you do not want your class to be passed by as dull and stupid. Also, where are the poets of the school? Indeed, there must be others beside the Seniors who have contributed this month. Brace up, lower-classmen, and write some poems, or limer- icks at least. Moreover, we need every student's support financially. All who can, should subscribe for THe Macnet. Do this, scholars, not only to help the paper, but also for the pleasure of reading it now and in the time to come when you will look back on your High School life as a thing of the past. Alumni, you, too, should want Tue Macnert, for it links you still to Leominster High. Rutu M. TIspDAte, ’12.
