Steve has often had lapses of memory, but never one as bad as this before He simply can’t remember which of four charming possibilities he married. His bachelor friend. Charlie, offers to help him. He will invite all the girls to a party; then sure- ly one of them will reveal that she is the bride. Steve urges Charlie to make love to all the girls and all goes well until Charlie’s girl friend arrives on the 6cene. It doesn’t help any when the southern gentle- man arrives to check on “his w’ard.” Ruse after ruse is tried by the frantic bridegroom, but his wife conceals her identity right up to the final curtain.

Our Philosophy of Education and Life In “The Green Book” of S.C.H.S. you will find our philosophy of education stated briefly: “The child is the most important individual in the school system”; also: “The chief function of education may not be so much what you know as what you love.” So many of us know what we are against, but not what we are for—what we disbelieve, not what we be- lieve. A negative life easily becomes neutral and futile. The best rule to live by was given to us some 1900 years ago—The Golden Rule. It is difficult to comprehend why something so simple and so sound is so often for- gotten or held in disrepute. I can only say that all of us would find it a good investment. B. E. GUM, Superintendent.
