Write p) • for the Sassamon! r nze w h y not? of course, we are satisfied with the present method of collecting material, but does writing for the Sassamon need to be com- pulsory? How do other magazines get material? They surely do not have to hunt for contributors. The next issue will prove whether or not you, each and every one, are backing the school paper. Instead of being compulsory, contributions will be entirely voluntary. Are you willing to co- operate with us? We hope so and we ex- pect it. Don ' t disappoint us! A definite date will be assigned for material to be in and a small prize given to the best contri- bution printed. Make that prize yours! Contribute, and have the satisfaction of feeling that you at least have had some part in making the Sassamon a success! Start now, time is short! E. R. E. We Since we have had two long Ol • 1 } vacations, kJIllIK.r caused by the flu, the question which is uppermost in our minds is how we shall be able to accomplish the extra amount of work which remains to be done. Of course, the instructors will be obliged to give out longer assignments than the ones which we have been accustomed to have. But no matter how lengthy the lessons are, let us not be shirkers, saying, Oh, why do they give us such long lessons? They know we won ' t have time to learn them. Instead, let us take whatever comes our way with willing minds and cheerful countenances. If we work faithfully and learn as much as we possibly can of the lessons which are given us, we shall probably find that we slowly, but surely, will regain the ground which was lost by our enforced vacations. H. R. M. D f Students of Natick High School, ' do you know what it means to edit a magazine and edit it successfully? Do you realize the great advance in print- ing prices? Our bill for merely typesetting was three times as much this year as in previous years. Are you willing to stand back of us financially and support us when we need it? If so, then you know that every student must be working together with all the rest for the good of the magazine. Further- more, every student must be loyal to the magazine and allow nothing to change his attitude. Here is where you can cooper- ate effectively. Several of you earned and gave five dol- lars to the United War Fund Drive. Why
