April 11, 1935 LA TORRE Page 11 Continued from Page 1 John Anderson + sometimes thought the laws were un- just and pictured the state in which there were none to hamper my free- dom. Now I realize that there would be no freedom for anyone outside the law. The good citizen is willing to serve his government in any civic capacity at any time. He will serve as a juror, witness, or win any other way his ser- vices are needed. He is always at the service of his country. The financial support of his govern- ment is never evaded by the good citizen. He willingly declares his tax- able property and income and cheer- fully assumes his share of the bur- den, realizing that the government which protects him can be maintained only by the support of its people. The development of his country and his community is of vital interest to the true citizen. He seeks to forward the development of industry and of the public health. He supports free public education, realizing that demo- cracy can survive only through an educated citizenry. He takes pride in the appearance of his community and supports the laws which seek to main- tain it. ' In every community there are or- ganizations which seek to uphold the highest social and moral standards for the people. There are the Red Cross, the Community Chest, the American Legion, the churches, and the civic-minded clubs. The true citi- zen will ally himself with these where possible and give them his support always. Finally there is the great obligation and privilege of the real citizen to defend his country in its time of need. This need may arise from the dis- loyal citizen, the radical who would undermine our traditional principles of democracy and impose upon us a form of government contrary to American ideals. It may come from an enemy beyond our borders. Against these the loyal citizen takes up arms. He answers the call to the colors, or he springs to the defense of the American Constitution. Thus we have pictured the true American. It is citizenship such as his that makes America great, ' Don't Miss Them LIBRARY CHATS + , Have you noticed the rearrange- ment or books in the library?

Paddock A wonderful book of history, speed, strength, and instruction on the var- ious track events. In the Kitchen of the King t How La Torre Comes To Life Perhaps you wonder just what hap- pens to La Torre after the Journalism class has completed writing and edit- ing the various articles and features. The hand written material 'is sent to the typing department, where the pupils make a. typewritten copy of each article. Then the ccpies are sent back to the Journalism class to be copy-read, which means the typed copy is compared with the written copy for typographical errors. After the material is copy-read the articles are measured and scheduled. They are then sent to the linotype operator where the type is cast on a. linotype machine. The pictures go to an en- graver, who engraves them on separ- ate pieces of metal, During this time Mr. Shires and his business gtaE are busy getting adver- tisements to help finance the cost of the paper. After the copy comes back from the linotype operator it is check- ed for mistakes: This checking is call- ed proof-reading. When this has been done, the type is sent to the print shop where the mechanical staff, un- der the direction of Mr. Vanderlip, sets the paper up in pages according to the dummy made by the make-up editor. It is then sent back to the editorial staff to be page-proofed, which means to see that the pages are set up correctly. It then goes back to the printing staff, where the type is locked up in a chase, put on the press, and printed. The copies are then folded and sent to the various English teachers to distribute in their classes, -Barbara Woods ONEONTA SHOE SHOP QUALITY AT MODERATE PRICES 1907 Fremont Avenue South Pasadena J x Donit Be Late, Remember 7:30 pm.

Then around a corner befell a most beautiful sight; shim- mering aspen leaves blown by the wind and tall grass swaying with them. Then ever farther on was Toul- umne itself. At first it looked very barren, but as we stayed a while we found it to be quite the contrary. We were very much surprised to find that it con- tained many colorful things. First, the Toulumne River, green-blue and silver foam thundering its way through the valley. Then came Wild mushrooms, strawberries, and flowers. At night the full moon rose and began its journey from east to west across the sky. As it rose, the tall pine trees were dark shadows silhouetted against the moon, and the moonbeams shimmered in the nverethe most beautiful sight of all! Frederick Lumbard 8B-105 ection. The cast consisted of only two characters. One, The Portrait of a Colonial Girl of 1750 and the other The Portrait of a Modern Girl of 1935. The Colonial girl was portrayed by Mary Francis McCune and the Modern Girl was played by Pat Dag- gett. The setting was an old fashioned reception room and the time was sup posed to be midnight. A startling contrast, was provided when Mary Francis did a few steps of a minuet and Pat did a few steps from our very modern Continental. w...
