On Commencement night, two members of the graduating class were each awarded u $200 scholarship. They arc now registered at the University of Nevada. With the application of the proceeds of this year's High School Circus to the scholarship fund, we feel that it has now become more than an experiment; that it is an established habit which will continue through the years. -The aim of the student body is to raise money each year through the Hi Skule Sirkus” for at least one two hundred dollar schol- arship, to be given to the most deserving graduate. A small amount is also added to the permanent fund each year, which it is hoped will eventually provide for another scholarship. In case the Sirkus nets us more than enough to provide one scholarship, as happened this year, it rests with the Scholarship committee to deter- mine whether the sum available shall be divided usually between two students, whether one scholar- sh.p of two hundred dollars and one of smaller amounts shall be given, or whether one scholarship shall be given and the remainder added to the permanent fund. The Scholarship Committee is composed of the president of the student body as chairman, two upper division students appointed by the chairman, in consultation with the principal, two members of the faculty appointed by the principal, and a member of the board of trustees. The prin- ciple upon which the appointments are made has to do with consistent scholarship, intergrity of char- acter and degree of necessity of financial aid in order to pursue further education. The scholar- ship is not awarded therefore, to one who could go to college without it, but to someone to whom it will be of real assistance in securing the first year at college, and who is well qualified in mind and character to make good use of the opportunity offered and to reflect credit upon our school. Westwood High School is justly proud of this scholarship fund for it is no small matter for a student body of less than ninety members to es- tablish and maintain such a fund. Besides aiding others it is also helping us to break away from the selfish idea which is so well expressed in the colloquialism of the school yard, after me you come first. Above all we are learning the value of united effort for the good of the community, a most important lesson in the training of the future citizen. M. R. P.

And the cool and crystal lake so far away; And the tears they dim my eyes, In spite of all that I can do, As I cuss the crooked faculty, and aay— Chorus Darn the faculty, the fish are jumping This detention’s put my fishing on the bum. Fishing season will be done. By the time I’ve served my time— Oh. gosh. I wish I wasn’t quite so dumb. Before the faculty I stood— While many charges fierce were made; My character they trampled on the floor, I was trying to explain. But they shut me up dismayed— Then they sentenced me. and threw me out the door. So here in detention hall I am waiting for the day When H. D. shall come and open wide the door; Then my heart will sing with joy. When I hear Prof. Miller say: Now get out. and don’t come back here any more.” O. C. 24
