As all since have been, this edition was a genuine product of the student !wtly. all the newspapers of Phillips High School having been set up and printed by our pupils. With this new asset an.I two splendid newspaper hoards, the Mirror this year has proved a groat success. Page Twelve I’liu.MI'S I KOM A Nf.w Angi.e Wc wonder if the little class of iix which graduated from the Birmingham High School on the second floor of the Wright Building in 1885 had any idea that in thirty-nine years from that memorable night a class of three hundred and eleven graduates would receive their diplomas on the stage of John Herbert Phillips High School. Wc wonder if they dreamed that in place of the few rooms where they recited their Rnglisb, Latin. Mathematics. l’hsysiology and History, the next generation would enjoy this great building with forty-three class rooms in which to pursue scores of studies, a spacious auditorium for its assemblies, and a beautifully furnished and well equipped library all its own. And did they dream that the motto they chose for their class, Per Aspera ail Astra,” would he carved above the fire-place of this library—the motto of a school of nearly three thousand students? Through all these great changes there remain—and will remain, we hope—those same high ideals and standards, that same spirit, which they had. and which wc cherish today as the most precious and vital possession of Phillips High School. Page Thirteen John Mebdkkt Phiuipb Superintendent of Schools 1883-1921 Behind any rapid growth or unusual progress there must I a momentum either front circumstances or from jtcrsonal-ity. In the ease of the public schools of Birmingham the personality was John Herbert Phillips, who was our guiding genius during his su| rrintendcncy from 1883 to 1921. The Mkmohi.m.

I'orty- Two OUR REACH Fkuow Class Mkmhkks: Failures and successes arc incidents in the life of man that make a great human appeal. It has been said that no man can succeed who has not first of all failed. Youth, however, will not have it so. Failure to him belongs wholly in the realms of fiction and of history. For him. only the preparation, a little time, and the laurel crown ’ Success is the one common thing that every one of us here this morning has set our hearts upon. My greatest wish for each of you is that you may reach the goal and win the prize. One of the most appealing passages in all literature is Browning's explanation of the failure of The Faultless Painter to achieve glory and greatness in his work In the dramatic monologue. Andrea Del Sarto relates in a pathetic way how he felt the need of Soul in his work, how he craved for some human inspiration, how hi' very heart agonized for the love of his beautiful wife, and how he needed someone to say to him. God ami the glory! Never care for gain. But instead of feeling this high impulse, he worked away painting perfect portraits, perfect as to detail and outline, hut lacking in those quali-tic which Angela and Rafael gave to their works, qualities which have made them live as masterpieces of spiritual truth and lieauty. Andrea realizing why he has never succeeded. expresses it in these words: “A man's reach should exceed his grasp or what’s a heaven for?” And in these words I find a message for you. my classmates of John Hcrlicrt Phillips High School, for you. my friends who are assembled here this morning, and for everyone everywhere who would add his small hit to the big mass of human endeavor. If we would make the world happier, wiser, ami nobler, our reach must exceed our grasp. Should we be satisfied, now that we have concluded the four years prescribed course for graduation? Should we be contented that a little learning' 'is ours, that we can now take our place beside the man of average education? Should we feel that it is enough to do the day's work, to finish the job; enough to lie honest, reliable, ami efficient. Or i' it enough to do the prescribed task—to study hooks, to teach school, to sell merchandise, to make steel, or to exalt ideals? No, it is not enough! Even though we may give all! We should long for more to give! Should we leave Phillips High School and go out into the world with no higher aim than to succeed, then our instructors will have failed. All these years they have been trying to do more than |w.ur facts into our sometimes receptive minds! They have been trying to give nurture to the soul that’s in us. to cultivate within our hearts the capacity for appreciation of the world’s needs; to inculcate within us a demand for lilserty ami justice Pane Forty-Three for all nun everywhere; and to fill us with a passion to spread round about us the gospel of truth. Is this hope too high? No. If we hope only to l e big business men, if money is our one real object: if we expect sonic day for it to be said of us that we are worth many thousands: if we concern ourselves only about making a living: about doing well: if our ambition is to be a lawyer, or a doctor, or an engineer, then the effort will l� c all hut wasted. Consider how many hundreds of years men and women have l ccn doing things! Whatever they have reached for. they have grasped! Note how many millionaires we have today; how many famous scientists: how many able lawyers, doctors, preachers, teachers, and yet we still have Teapot Domes. Ku Klux rights, and labor strikes, and social unrest, ami we till have wars! It is all because men have not aimed high enough. It is because the world has become a world filled with men and women with their hearts set on the material things of life, things which they can reach for and grasp. The soul has lieen lacking, and the time has come when someone must stir us with the cry. Cod and the Glory, Never Care For Gain! In this spirit, I coinc to you, fellow classmates. May we determine in our hearts to reach for the highest things in life: and may the highest things he like the bag at the end of the Rainbow: as we aproach, nearer atld nearer, may the ideals seem farther and farther away! So come my classmates, it is mow time to seek a newer world— “Push off. and silting well in order smite The sounding furrows; for our purpose holds To sail beyond the sunset, and the paths of all the western stars. until we die. It may be that gulfs will wash us down; ft may he that we shall touch the Happy Isles. And see the great Achilles whom we knew. 77 0' much is taken much abides—that which we are. we are: One equal temper of heroic hearts, strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. Jim Smith. Page Tarty-Tour THE CLASS AND THE RING Cl. ass maths nr 1924: yon have twitted ti rilto. Hdt.il of it 'Tii i finure, a symbol soy: .1 thing's sign; now for the thing signified.” Four years of Paul Ifaync, Medical College, ami Phillip —four years of English, French, Latin, Math. Science, Spanish—four years of bells and lockers. “This far lobe the truth. The untempered gold, the art ttntampered with. The mere nno metal ere the ring be made.” As other metal give the gold the chance to as-ume the desired contour anil design, so other phases of High School life mold the academic into more spiritual forms, giving it strength and beauty. Most of u have belonged to clubs, have enjoyed programs, socials and plays; wc have had the exciting pleasure of pulling together for a winning football team; wc have endured that complex state of hojK- and fear in those agonizing moments in oratorical when the judges would not render their decision; we have had the privilege of differing from authority—of holding our own opinions alntut debates in spite of the better judgment of those appointed to give the ultimatum. Funny things happening in class have kept us chuckling: delightful little chats in the hall- have given rise not only to an elaborate system of marshals but to a closer fellowship. As our classes would draw us toward knowledge, our friendly promenades would lure us from books to the pleasure of society, to the warm hearted exchange of opinion and understanding of each other’s viewpoints. As we have learned to know each other, we have grown to cherish to a degree the same ideals. By working togther and playing together wc have kept our eiiuilibrium— for who would Ik altogether devoted to study, or to s« cicty? Balanced by thought and act. we are members of one class with essentially the -ame view point—the appreciation of unity in diversity. The associations and friendships formed in High School have meant much to us and will always be with us. We have learned what no book can teach—lessons to prepare us for life, the neighliorly contacts with individuals and with groups We have brought the spirit of old Central to Phillips, to free itself in a larger atmosphere, and now we take it with us to free itself in a larger life. Could wc have done this without feeling within ourselves that same spirit? Can a group even so large a group as our , bound by one spirit ever Ih divided? No. We are essentially a part of one another held by the invisible baud of which this ring is the outward sign. A torch, a liook. a name, a date. The torch is the flame of our intellectual fire, kindled in our High Sclmol course by the sympathetic interest of our instructors and members of our class The l� � ok is the book of knowledge; transcendental philosophy for some, practical wisdom f«� r others in accomplishing real work in the world and in appreciating all work, bc it digging Latin root- or edible roots in some humble garden. The name “Phillips High School is the name of a reat institution with a great spirit, which has afforded us not only the practical possibilities for education but also the inspiration which gives this day an added significance! The name Phillip- will always be dear to us for the reason that it was the place where we worked and played together and from which wc arc entering the world today. The date. May 1924, is the time of the divergence of our paths,( the closing of our High School days, the opening into college, business, or a broader home life. Wc wear the ring as the symbol of our unity—and unbroken circle of classmates. Wc have deeds accomplished and dreams of deeds to be accomplished engraved in our characters as unmistakably as the insignia of this ring. Wc have won the right to wear the ring. I.et us wear it proudly to the fulfillment of its promise. Makc.awht Lam KIN, Corresponding Sec. Page Forty-Five HISTORIAN fl i - - HISTORY OF SENIOR CLASS OF 1924 The tendency of Historian since 1020 has been t tell dearly and connectedly the 'lory of the life «� f mankind from the earliest periods to the present. But the desire to extend the general range of historical ideas is limited by the fact that available time for research i« only sufficient for a partial and narrow treatment and that therefore, however desirable the extension of range may Ik , it is impracticable. In other words no matter how much we want to account for every incident in the life of every Senior in our class, to do so ri impossible. So to follow in the foot steps of the leading Historian of our time, we shall give an Outline of the History of Senior Class of Phillips High School of 1924. The Recoup of i iik Rocks We do not remember just when we started to -chool. But probably our_ first days were filled with excitement which soon sank into monotony until our timidity became a thing of the past. Of course, there were some in our midst who might Ik- called Azoic or lifeless; they took no part in the various games but preferred to keep their hair combed or shoes shined. Another group were Proterozoic, in these, timid at first, life Iwgan to show when they Ixrcaine acquainted with their surroundings. There were some few who might lie called Palaeozoic, the ones who hail previously gone through the experience of the first grade and for whom it no longer held a thrill. During the Mesozoic or middle period, there came many battles. We can easily recall the battles between the Red Headed Cbnnccy and the Redder Headed Gordon. The Akckstxv of thk Class The record of the rocks remind us of bow mixed is the ancestry of our class. Celeste Nesbitt from l.akevicw, Plaisanec from Highland. Smith from Avondale. .Margaret from Barker. Greene from Powell. Berkowitz from Henley. Eaw.y Thought wrly thought at Paul Hayitc was limited to fear and hope. YVe feared the sophomores, our elders, not our (tetters. YVItcn we Itecame sophomores we put away childish fears. It was then that story telling and Myth making developed—late themes,’lost Itooks. flat tires. YVe relaxed from fear to think aliout what picture show we would attend when released from school and to hope that a matinee would not take place that afternoon in Rooms 229. 227 or 209. It even became possible for us to understand our teacher, to foretell whether she was going to give a test or read a story. “YVe could trace the day' disaster 111 her morning face. YY'e could tell when the bell was going to ring. . During our first years, skill, polish, refinement developed. Influence of the first civilization i _ evidenced hy the disappearance of ragged, am! the appearance of imported styles. The influence of the Persian lifr was apparent in the Paisley dresses of 1923: of Kgvpt, in King Tuts sandals: of Japan, in th plucked eyebrows of our beauties. Sek People a no Tk aping People This influence is partly due, no doubt, to the See People and Trading People. Numlwr of floaters roamed the halls in the region of Mirror. Music and Expression. Trading of l atin Prose flourished until 1923 when the open book policy was inaugurated. Exploration to the new school began, too, in the spring of 1923 under such pilots as Gabbrrt and Roe of the Curry. McArthur and Gordon of the Yapccy, Buzaird and Brown of the Hilliard. Frances Gassmnn of the Clio; Cccile Cohen. Aglaia: Edith Fcrrcl, Astraca; Virginia YY'hildin, Pierian. A club war for territory was averted only by suave arbitration of the principal. YV KITING Inevitably such extended activity demanded broader communication. Picture writing, essentially a drawing of things ami acts helped out by heraldic indications of j� ro|� cr names Page Pony-Six and strokes and dots to represent days and distances and such qualitative ideas, was brought to high state of pcriection by Ernest Henderson, who excels in club posters and announcement of various club activities. So it was by a series of very natural steps that writing grew out of the expression of the life of the school. At first it seemed to be limited to be a favored few (authority, any teacher of English). Most of our class today, however, arc fairly adept and its social significance is understood by many, assuredly by Eunice Foster. (Jons and Stars Ml mankind is inclined at .lie stage or another to worship stars. In High School those of the first Magnitude in athletics are Harry Holder, Jim Smith, Hob Howdcn; in dramatics Elizalieth Connell and Kenneth Pcrrine: in oratory Lewis Smith, Arnold Edmonds. Lee Brown ami Cecile Cohen: in literature Margaret I.amkin, Alice Byrd and Harrison Weed. The wandering stars are Virginia Shook. Katherine Grubb and Elizaticlli Shepard. Greek Thought In the fall of ‘23 Greek thought organized to make itself felt organization of the Scholarship Society of members like Virginia I.ipscomb, Dorothy Cross. Elizalieth Manly who thought a little learning a dangerous thing and any grade liclow S5 a disgrace. Science at Bini.urs At the same time began so great a development in science as to require the double period. Two periods was just two times too many for some, while others were becoming interested. The Kish and Spread of Borbism A new cult called Bobhistn spread among “Pliillipians. Pupils and teachers liecame devotees. The Two Eastern Rei’lui.ics Two Eastern republics dominate in the Birmingham district (East of Twentieth Street), the John Herbert Phillips ami our worthy rival. Woodlawn. Iiotli seek to govern themselves, though by different plans, and succeed in keeping off the football field, no matter how enthusiastic as to the progress of the game. The Crusades The spirit of the Cru ades inspired the stalwart students to oust from the Auditorium the infidels, those who seek to violate those most sacred laws handed by our imperial High School Council. The Renascence As we look hack into the immediate past we sec a Renascence at Phillips. We find the dignified Seniors thinking for themselves, choosing their Senior officers, and their flowers and their ring—reviving the study of heraldry ami breaking the tradition of the school in its design. The Re.m.itiks and Imagination op the Senior i ear In an outline history such as this it is impossible to trace the network of complex mental processes that lead to the extension of knowledge and power, that is now ours. We have told of the first release of our curiosity, of tin- beginnings of systematic inquiry and experimentation. We have told f the escape from secrecy and per onal advantage to the idea of publication and brotherhood. Ideas of class solidarity, thanks to Mr. Going, became more widely diffused by our meetings in auditorium. We cannot trace here the contribution' of such worthy representatives as Helen Johnston ami Norman Teague in making this possible. While throughout tin last semester the mind of High School Seniors, which the renascence had released, gathered itself to the task .if creative, social and political reconstruction and there swept across our hearts a wave of new feeling, a bitter-sweet realization of graduation and separation. The prophecies of our fond parents have come true. The accumulative knowledge and confidence which the group of loyal men and women who have lieeti instructing ns have bestowed and inspired, began to hear fruit that the world may perceive. The most obvious first-fruit is our diplomas. The Next Stage op History We have brought this outline up to the threshold of our graduation but we have brought it to no conclusion. It breaks off a dramatic phase of expectation. The story of the life of the class that began semesters ago rises to a climax in the immense interrogation of today. The drama becomes our present selves. It is you. it is I. it i' all that is happening to us and will happen which will supply the next chapter of the continually expending adventure of the class of 1924.

The American ideals are freedom, union, equality, humanity, service, education, righteousness .and world brotherhood. It is the duty of every American citizen to respect the flan and t uphold the ideal' for which it stands. Hut duly is a word like many others that lias become almost meaningless through careless usage. Would it were possible for us to give back to the word it-, true and original meaning by dedicating ourselves to the things that are high and noble in our personal lives ami to the things that are fundamental in the life of our nation. It has been said that our lives are what we make them. That statement holds true with equal force concerning our flag and our country. Our nation was the first in all the word “to recognize the pricelessucss of the spirit of man: it was the first to recognize that Liberty and Freedom cannot be given to men by government, that these inalienable rights have been given man hv Almighty God. and that the most that the government can do is to protect and preserve them for its citizens of the present day and for posterity. “Ours was the first government of laws and not of men ' Our people were the first people to he free and independent. This freedom and this independence vvtih all of the fundamntal rights of mankind were written into our con stitution by our forefathers; and it is our duty today to protect it from the encroachment-of selfish politicians and demagogues In this land of the free and the home of the brave t wards which men in foreign lands turn their eyes with hungry hearts and hopeful longing- wc should ever hear in mind the promise that our forefathers made, the open invitation that has been extended to all men every where, who think as we think and who desire that which wc have: for— tl'e hold these truths to be self-evident; That all men are created equal; That they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable riahls; That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” May wc ever he mindful of our duties to the new-born Americans and to those who arc tint of Anglo-Saxon birth; just a- there is no north, no south, no east, no west, but one'United country; so should there be no black, no brown, no yellow, no white, where justice and mercy arc concerned but one common citizenship. It has been -aid that the nations of the world are looking to Free America, united ami self-contained, to lead humanity out of the darkness of the war cloud that never has yet cleared away from the battlefield- of Kuropc: t.. lead her over the road awav from revolution, into the lights of a new day where peace and progress shall walk hand in hand. It that be true it is because the nations have known that merica not onlv preaches hut lives that spirit of humanity which was so well expressed bv the immortal Lincoln when he said: With malice towards none, with charity for all. with firmness in the right, as God gives us the right to see the right, let u- strive on to finish the work that we are in- t hind up the nations wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for’his widows and orphans- -to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves, and with all nations.” For. after all. the test of a nation’s government, its strength and it- power and it-righteousness, is expressed in the hearts of men and in the deeds of its people. Among the many things of which our flag i- symbolical is Universal education—light for every mind, knowledge for every child. And' that is why you and I are here this morning. I he public schools have made it possible for most of us to receive an education. (Continued on Page S4) Cage Torty-flight STATISTICIAN STATIC STATISTICS STATISTICALLY STATISTIZED Friends, Romans, and Phillipitcs: I come to -tati-ti e the class of 1924, not to praise it: the good that you have done will lie forgotten but your grades will be regarded as your bones. Before i proceed to enlighten you concerning the accomplishments, characteristics, and proclivities uf this class, the noblest of them all —this l cing the first to be graduated from the John Herbert Phillips High School. I hereby certify and make affidavit that what I sliall have to say is as accurate as an Ingcrsolr and as reliable as a weather report. I shall make no attempt to smooth thing- over, for I have no desire to be connected with the Tea-Pot Dome. In the famous words of Armanis . I shall “tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Now having finished the happy prologue to the -welling act of the imperial theme,” I -hall plunge headlong into my momentous task, and give you the benefits of my philosophical deductions. 1 have found that the class of 1924 since entering the halls of high school, some six years ago. has used note book pajicr which, if bound would equal in si zc and weight 14.892 copies of the 1924 edition of that well-known family guide Sec Kars and Row Buck, that if all of the commas, periods, and misspelled words written upon those memorable note book pages could be converted into the substance from which they came, there would Ik enough lead resulting to fill 138,981 feet 3 inches of pencils, which would retail for $3,141.67; 1 have estimated that if the chalk that has hern used on the board by our beloved pedagogues in an effort to tin fold t« us the hidden truths, which still to its remain hidden truths —that if this chalk could lie pulverized and changed into wheat flour there would lie a supply on hand to hake 2.181.349 hot biscuits; from careful calculations, 1 am ready to state that in the lunch room our ela-s has consumed 19,207 gallons. 2 quarts and 1 anil 1-3 pints of milk, lemonade, and cocoa; by way of deduction I have discovered that if the powder which has ltccn applied by certain members of our class lluring the past four years could be converted into dynamite there would lie a quantity on hand sufficient to h!ow the planet Mars two millions utile and three feet beyond the Sun: conversely stated, if the five big packing companies located in Birmingham were to pool into one gigantic reservoir alt of the lard they carry in -tock on any one day, it would not equal in mass the total amount of stacomh and stahack that has been assiduously applied for tonsorial enhancements by the young Lochinvars of our number: it follows in quick succession that if all the bobbed hair liclniiging to Phillip- High School girls was assembled there would he a supply sufficient to manufacture 13,309 all-hair mattresses with enough residue to line the nests of 8,495386 English -narrows; and finally, if there were pennies to represent the number of times we have held up our hands to answer questions we knew absolutely nothing about, there would lie a grand total of 72.177.33 1-3 cents. These tacts arc as valuable as they arc interesting, and they have been a- arduous to establish as they have been difficult to verify. In my round- of duty connected with the important office of statistician I chanced upon material which enabled me to set down the following as being important, incon-trovertablc. and perpetual: 1st. To make good grades in English one must have a poetic soul; be able to make truce with necessity.” 2nd. To scope on a history test one must l� c able to summarize the topic and appreciate a good joke point blank.” 3rd. To kool-killum in Math one must be able to comprehend that which lie cannot understand. 4th. To Pop-ein-in-thc-cyc on a Science test one must know the theory and reaction-of certain and uncertain molecules. Believing in the principles that am daj in the normal life of man may In taken with certain reasonable deductions to typify the average day in an individuals existence: 1 mad investigation on Thursday of last week and discovered the following interesting items: Page Forty-Nine 1. Every member of the Senior Class was present, on time, work prepared, ami in pleasant frame of mind. 2. Not a single girl discussed the number of dates she had for the week-end, and not one was heard to use the words, ’'cute, ’ “grand or darling. 3. Every teacher in making his or her assignment said. Now this lesson may seem short to you, hut I’m broadminded enough to take into consideration that you have three or four other teachers, who may for Lick of judgment and experience assign you much longer lessons, expecting you to get that lesson if no other ’ 4. No one asked Boh Bowden if it was cold up there: Margaret l.amkin knew less about her lessons than am member of her class; Bryan Cliancey refused to argue with anybody about anything: kenueth Perrine’s hair was all mussed up; and Harrison Byrd had on trousers with 24-inch cuffs. The most difficult situation thai ever confronts a statistician is to know when to stop fitntistizing. Statistically speaking, gtatistizatkm can never l� e static: for no sooner has one stopped counting the different ways that the girls in Phillip spell their names who arc denoted and connoted by the cognomen of Caroline than lie is notified that the C’s and K’s and I’s and Y’s have been jumbled again, and to the extent tluit when the dainty little dear next darkens the door of her daddy’s domicile, the old fashioned parents know not what her name may l e, and so all night long they go sadly about the bouse singing the plaintive melody, “Can’t You Hear Me Callin’. Caroline?” and Caroline refuses to answer because her name is Carolyn. And so it is, or nearly so. with trying to measure the exact circumference of the cuffs which encircle the extremities of the trouser worn by the Beau Bruntmels of our Arrow Collar Club. Recently in preparation for my carpenter who was coming with square and compass for the minute measurements connected with this auspicious occasion. 1 issued a proclamation paramount to the portentiousness of the performance, stating that all Cake-Eaters, Jelly Beans, Stay lackers, Cookie-Pushers, and the Cup Cuddlers should assemble at 3:30 ill the afternoon on the outside and at the rear of the school building, and that immediately upon assembling they should assume a position and posture against the back of the building us though they were going to Ik-executed by the Firing Squad of the Institution. Arriving there with my engineering squad ail properly accounted and equipped, 1 found three hundred and thirty-three trusty Tor-rcadors tip-toeing the tape that trailed along the tcrrcstial territory that they should occupy. The carpenter, he got busy: the announcer, he. too. was on the job: the recorder will his adding machine and clerical assistants was manoevering like a machine gun; and we were progressing so beautifully I felt sure that ere the ct of sun I would be in possession of valuable figures which would have a most direct bearing upon the proposals pending in congress today regarding protective tariffs having to do with the shoe industry; when all of a sudden someone appeared on the scene, and a tumultuous shout rent the air, a hundred voices crying. “Going, Going, Gone. And so the day s work was brought to an abrupt end without my having secured the data concerning such important members of the Mould of Form and Fashion's Mirror membership as Bodie Fidlcr. Fulton Clark. John Kelly Murphy. Abe Berkowilz and Clarke Houston Gillespy. And so a statistician’s work is being forever stajickcd and therefore never statistixed a-tall! However, 1 feel that I should conclude thi illuminating compendium of comprehensive information concerning the composite characteristics of the personalities and proclivities ami peculiarities of the celebrated class of 1924 of Phillips High, by stating at least one static-incontrovertible, indisputable, indestructible, and indispensable to the total sum of tautological truths, and that is this: That out of the student body of our inmitablc institution, numbering some two thousand or more students, pupils, scholars, wall-flowers, hall-runners, office-seekers, topic-summarizers. and matinee-idols, there arc in our midst only five philosophers among which number I proudly lay claim to the distinction of being one; who have been able to ascertain hy hypothetical deduction or metaphysical manipulation the all-important answer to the momentous question of the centuries, namely, “What Made the Wild Cat Wild? And now to pun on my patronizing patronymic, I fear I shall be Harried out of the Hall if I hold you longer, so. to quote the concluding lines of the immortal Milton in his memorable lament styled I.ycidas. My task note completed. I shall no longer inlrodne; For once one has finished, Let him quickly conclude. Harry Houmcr, Statistician. 24. Page Fifty a — — - — .a ADVICE Among the most value !, yet umubscrvitnl practices existing today i« the interchange of opinion. At every turn we encounter. through some medium, the sage advice of a contemporary or predecessor. Never do we hear of a parsimonious adviser, as nolnwly hoards golden words of advice. No one is too occupied to lack time to dispense it: no one is so ill educated as to he unable to dispense it Our theory-crammed A. Ik’s and Ph.D.’s readily give advice to the laborer: ami itt some instance accept it from hint. Captains of industry pause during their busy careers to explain to the ambitious how thev can emulate, liven the great ncwspA| crs, that arc accused of being so devoid of soul ami literary qualities, print columns even day devoted to the promulgation of their individual Itolicies ti gcthcr with syndicated pieces giving advice on diers subjects It is thundered at us from the pulpit, clothed with fundamental as well as modernistic rautment; the keynote of which is follow, or regret. Numerous arc the trappings of sin. numerous arc the disguises of advice. Many times we catch ourselves in the pale of this bounteous gift when our original path would have led us toward :ui altogether foreign goal Doubtless, we would never stop to assimilate so varied an assortment of counsel if it did not stealthily intrude upon us. If Ramey Google, in one of his benevolent moments, were to impart to some devotee of the turf whether r.r not Spark Plug would win his next race, this piece of advice would unconventionally be called a tip When a man gets himself tangled in the web of the law. he seeks a lawyer, who he thinks is well verged in the art of swaying the scales of justice to give hint counsel. Polonies' advice to hi son. Laertes, is. technically waking, parental direction. Franklin’s advice to counteract the wasteful tendency of people has become known as maxim-. Aesop’s amusing little allegories are called fables. The all-inclusive term for the admonitions of the preacher is the uncertain word doctrine. Whenever a criminologist is summoned to solve some crime, either sordid or otherwise. the first question that occupies his attention is the motive that led to the committing of the breach against society. The scientific approach to the study of advice is to discover some of the reasons for its super-abundance. Many would theoretically state that the spring from which it flows i- the underlying tendency of many to he garrulous. As loquacious persons soon exhaust all the current news, they naturally begin to discuss those subjects where advice is easily interred. As no two persons lead the same life, what is new to one is old to his neighbor. Two persons meet on the street and chat affably as they walk; one of them has just finished saving enough money to purchase a home and instinctively itt buoyant expectancy lie adroitly turn the conversation to domestic domicile . His'friend having long been without the toil of the landlord and initiated into the tax-payers' clan, either from a solicitous personal prompting or merely to Ik.- agreeable, willingly pours forth his store of knowledge on homes, their architecture, location and finances; dropping surreptitious bits of advice here and there. The professional matt’s advice in the majority of eases is rendered on pecuniary grounds, rather than for any interest in his client. The advice of the clergy conies from the altruistic desire to better mankind through the dictates of conscience. The newspaper's editorials and advisory columns have more heterogeneous sources than we arc prone to think. Kditorials are vitally necessary to every paper. Readers expect them; the paper’s policies arc supported by them; they give_ expression to political and moral opinion in the community. The various other columns in the newspapers and periodicals sustain somewhat the same relation as the editorial in that they have definite pur|K scs to carry out —either to tell the reader how to become beautiful or to give advice to the love-lorn damsel or youth. Rut comparisons and similarities arc hard to establish. Witness Flucllcn's attempt to liken Henry V. to Alexander the Great. The Welshman got as far as the fact that the (Continued on Page X4.) Fa je Fifty-One CLASS POET LIFE’S SYMPHONY Life In us is (i symphony— Music, laughter, cloud-flccked down, Willi each heart i throbbing lyre Singing of niylu mid ardent mom. Softly night mid shade recede, Hte stars grow pale and fade away; Aurora sweeps across the sky And brings in jewelled train the day. To see the village that nestles anear II here the pale-blue smokes from the lilalch-roofs curl. And the fishermen mend their deie-damp nets As the boats lie moored with their sails afurl. To walk in the meadow, to tea Ik by the stream, It here the wood-thrush atilt sings street from the thorn. Where the flowers boast fragrance in chalice of detv. And the warbler trills from the first gleam of dawn; To look lotvard the mountains—like monarehs asleep. In the dim, hasy distance, their summits snow crowned. And to dream of the shadows soft purple and green, I There the fern fronds bend ler.v o'er the leaf-strewn ground; To stund by the sea and watch the blue steel I. And follow the troves from afar to the shore. Where the rocks glisten gray in the slap of the spray And the sea-fowl go winging their way from the moor; Life is a symphony in these— Mild echo, crescendo and fantasy free, A deep-toned melody vibrantly played In the note of the meadow, the mountain and sea.

The shadow on a dial—the striking of the clock—the running of the hands—day and night—summer and winters—months, years and centuries. If not this—then tell me what i time? —Longfellow. To us time is just the joyous, sorrowing happy, sad, indefinable, intangible time of golden school days and oh. how fleeting.' The nine school months arc like nine hours on a great clock which at length pass away hut in passing leave record of events.

What arc the good things about the military business? First. DISCI PUNIC: to accept without a murmur, orders that tread on our toes, but that at the same time arc for the common good: to say Yes sir. when we would like very much to say something altogether different: to go ahead wholeheartedly and carry out someone else plan when we know positively that our own would be much better; to find ways of doing things well when we could advance any number of reasons why they should not he done at all. and to give results instead of excuses. Second, PHYSICAL AND MENTAL ALERTNESS: to hold our minds and bodies alert and tense, waiting f« r the word of command; to do what is expected instantly and properly; to have such mental and muscular control as to respond thus instantly, without slur or slouch; to walk erect, to breathe deeply, to walk with a swing; to stand up Third, LOYALTY: to trust in a commander because he is the epmandmer, and because he has made us feel that he will do his best for tire common and not the individual good; to support him when tilings look black, with implicit trust in his judgment. Fourth, HONOR; to hold the reputation of the Corps or the Regiment or the Company, altovc every individual consideration; to he willing to make any sacrifice for tire sake of the Corps, or to give up pleasure and privilege for the Regiment's sake: to dress neatly and act properly anil courteously, so that the uniform will he a badge of distinction for all. and will not he disgraced. And finally, TEAMWORK: to know that we can depend on our comrades; that our own shortcomings will be made up by them; to know that our commands WILL meet instant response and that our subordinates will Come across:” to know that we must ourselves Come across” because our comrades expect it: to know that our superiors will have considered the risks and the problems, and that if it finally becomes necessary to make the supreme sacrifice, it will not have been in vain. a) o Pflfie Scw'ily-Nine COMPANY A Captain Robert Oliver First Lieutenant Ralph Gr.ivale Second Lieutenant llagood Terrell F|R.- T SERGEANT Ivor Jones Sergeants Hurtort.

Mow then could we he true to our flag and true to the ideals .if before leaving the walls of Phillips High School we did not dedicate ourselves to the cause of education in the city of Birmingham, state of Alabama, and throughout our nation. There is much that we can do. even now. and much more in the days to come by talking, teaching, doing, working, and giving. America is a glorious country; liberty and freedom arc sacred words ami we who have declared to all people everywhere that we arc the champions of these two fundamental privileges of mankind, have undertaken a task and assumed a responsibility that must ever give us pause. Not only must wc remember “the rock front which we are hewn, hut wc must remember with a deep reverence. It was Benjamin Franklin who said: 1 have lived a long time; and the longer 1 live the more convincing proofs I see of this truth, that God governs in the affairs of men. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without Mis notice, is it possible that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured in the sacred writings and except the l.ord huild the house they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this; and I also believe that without his concurring aid we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babel. I.ct us ever he considerate of the deep obligations in this respect such as the masterful mind of Franklin felt. For only by so doing shall we ever succeed in our noble under taking. Freedom, union, equality, humanity, service, education, righteousness, and world brotherhood! Well might we paraphrase the well known statement concerning that which Drummond termed “the greatest thing in the world. and say. There almlcth all these, hut the greatest of these i good will towards all men. Peace should he made with all mankind. It should he our care not only to make peace but to maintain it. But this will never he until we arc persuaded that peace is better than war. justice better than injustice, the care of ours better than grasping at what belongs to others: and peace will never be until it comes to the nations through the hearts of men; and you and I can never Ih: the apostles of peace until wc hurl all semblance of hatred from our hearts, and are willing to abide by that great plan for universal peace given to man by Mini who is recognized as the greatest teacher the world has ever known; You have heard it said. Love your neighbor: Util i say unto you. Love your enemies: Bless them that curse you: do good to them that hate you, and fray for them that despiteful ly use you and prosecute you. Let us. then, as individuals he just—observe good faith towards all humanity; cultivate peace and harmony with all: and give to mankind the example of a people always guided hv ail exalted justice and an unselfish love.

This is about as far as_ we could go if we try to compare the production and consumption of advice: though in most instances one governs the other as is true to a large degree in industries, art, literature and practically every vocation. If the consumption of advice were compared with the production, the resultant ratio would he so insignificant that it would seem as though the advice-giving industry were rapidly approaching the insolvent state. In conflict with the usual rule, however, it seems as though this industry is not even leading a precarious existence, hut enjoying a m-riod of unprecedented prosperity. It is not comprehensible that a gift so alnmiiiling should he spun ted without some definite reason for the anomaly. It is not essential, nor even requisite, that you he an alienist to understand this ungratefulness upon the part of the intended recipients. Many jK’oplc are like the Scotch bard. Burns, in that they like to imagine themselves entirely independent of fellow I icings. They flee to the fanciful “Rock of Independence” and repel the efforts of any to intrude upon their sovereignty of self-rule. Advice is not heard, much less followed by such as these. Contrasted with the “independents would be that clas of weak-spined. over-cautious creatures forever seeking their neighbors' opinions on everything, whether it lie the ruling of a kingdom, or the purchasing of a new hat. Still, there are others, who getting the opinions of their friends, find them so varied that they in self-defense must follow tltcir own line of reasoning.

Several veterans from last year's squad were back on the job and with these as a nucleus. Coach Stillwell built Phillips a really fine team. At the first of the basketball season a league was formed, consisting of High School and amateur teams around the city and Phillips became a member, playing the other teams in the league instead of following the usual plan. Our Mtcccss was pre-eminent. The Phillips boys overcame all opposition, except Woodlawn. The Crimsons played two games against Woodlawn. both ending, we arc sorry to say. in defeats. The Woodlawn boy. got their revenge for their defeat m football. Abe Jaffc, the stellar forward, was the scoring; star and bis shooting was superb. Abe is a veteran from last year’s squad. Holder and Sanford, our two peppy guards, both hack from the ’23 team, are a pair of players ranking with the best in the state. It is needless to say that without these two Phillips should have lieen badly off indeed. And then Cy Anderson, our long-drawn out renter, who proved the find of the football season, was equally successful as a member of the basketball team. It would be needless to mention to Phillips basketball fans Emitli. Williamson and other stars who helped make our school a team to lie proud of. They need no introduction to the students ami their work can not be praised too highly. Enough has not. I might say. cannot he said of the part Coach Lawrence Stillwell played in our successful season. It has been said that the coach makes the team and if this is true we surely must have had a great crew of cagers. Due credit is also due our opponents in the 24 basketball season. They fought clean and bard and made Phillips bustle every minute. Again we offer the Woodlawn cagers our profouudest respect and—-may we turn the tables next year!

I lore's to the Alumni! That glorious alumni that now arises to inspire u to higher honors. They, too, passed through this � ame epoch of trial and tribulations that we today are subject to. Among the old familiar faces who we remember seieng in the halls at dear ole Central leaving behind them standards that we aspire to attain, comes into view—Phillip Alford. To know hint was to admire hint. During his stay at High School, great was the benefit reaped by the club, for Phillip was a l� orii leader. And his ambition when he left us was to become a leader in the medical field. Steadfast to his purpose, ltirmiughum Southern now claims hint as an enthusiastic student, pursuing the course of medicine. So knowing what we know, can we not rightfully expect Phillip’s name to l c linked with the great scientific miracles of the future? And speaking of expectations, if we could only some day cxjtcct to attain Hazel Woolcy’s excellencies in studies, then the god would have indeed favored u . Although Hazel wa with us for the short time of a year, she was a closely associated with ninety's and ninety-fives as those who were here for four years All who came in contact with her. were impressed by her brilliancy—the glory of a firm and capacious mind. Glancing in the journalistic field, conspicuously elevated we note Russell Smith ani Leroy Simms. Russell, the favorite poet of Central has quite naturally found his place in realms of literature ami at present, is connected with the Princeton News. Leroy—ah! That we jiad him now to solve some of our financial problems, for lie possessed a keen mathematical mind. He. too. could not resist the call of journalism ami our city, ever quick to recognize genius, gave hint his first opportunity to prove his ability as a writer. His articles in the Birmingham News have proved a source of great interest to the High School followers. Since both of these Ik vs have shown such aptitude for their chosen careers, we tnav prophesy nothing less than success. Another distinguished character of the class of '23 is Susan Cobbs. A person of great intellect combined with personal charm ami poise! Our Susan is now to he found at the University of Alabama, as ever, bent on the pursuit of learning. Surely she will leave behind her footprints on the sand of time ami be numbered among the great in the Hall of Fame. Marjorie Scruggs!!! The life of the clas of '23-dilithsome. gav and debonair, always with her cheery smile made hosts of friends in her High School career. She literally romped through her years of study—oldivous to the hardships of High School. Who doesn't remember the gold dust twins of which Marjorie was one. who entertained with her gay songs on the ukelele in the old auditorium? Perhaps the appreciation of her audience oil these occasions inspired her to remain at Phillips and fulfill her musical inclinations. As we grow reminiscent, multitudes of other come to our minds hut rather than not do them full justice, we leave those for another day. And s« on ur own goal—graduation will sweep us into the niiibt of those gone but not forgotten. Then, we too. will be the Alumni. Quicii sabc? Rosa Dcmuv.

Iii the first place it isn't the Mirror that is bored, it's the students and the Mirror docs the boring. The Mirror gets by cheap enough, not that it's a cheap pamphlet, one dollar a throw, but it is reported that the Mirror doesn't pay its hoard. We think that a roomer like this is a disgrace to the school. But getting hack to the joke . Vc wish to discourage any ideas to the effect that we puhli h antique humor. Consider this front the standpoint of relativity. Time is relative. Space is relative, jokes are relative, in fact, all our relatives are jokes, but everyone who is acquainted with EINSTEIN'S magnificent theory knows that a paltry million years in only a brief moment in comparison with the great expanse of time since this world of ours has Iteen in existence.

The Crimson Five downed the Duval Tigers by more than doubling the score in the game Saturday night in the new Phillips gymnasium. The Crimson tide held the upper hand throughout the game, although Duval put up a splendid fight, it was plainly shown that Duval was off form at this game, but apparently any team in the South would have had trouble in stopping Phillips in the last half of the game. Abe Jaffe. midget forward for the Crimson , made a new individual record when he scored eighteen points. His defensive and paring game was excellent throughout, and many times his shots came near being two pointers. At the end of the first half the score stood 9-8 in favor of Phillips. Harry Holder sprained his ankle in the engagement. CRACKED MIRROR BOARD HOLDS MEETING The Cracked Mirror Board held its meeting last week. The social editor had a splendid report.
