It is by no means unusual for a Sabin boy to save the life of some fellow being. This time it was Sam Kerstein who had the honor. He happened to be near during an auto- mobile accident in which a mans hand and arm were severely cut. Blood spurted from veins and arteries in alarming quan- tities: but the great danger lay in em- bolism: that is, a bubble of air entering a cut vein and being carried to the heart by the blood stream, thus causing instant death. With both hands, Sam gripped the man's arm and checked the flow of blood. His fingers were numb: his muscles were tired but he dared not let go for in the science class Mr. Boehm had painted such a realistic picture of embolism that he stood in mortal fear that the man would gasp and die. He simply gripped tighter. When the ambulance arrived, the pa- tient was taken over and made comfor- table, the man in charge put his hand on Sam's shoulder and said, Well done Buddy, you saved that man's life. Then he gave the signal and the ambulance sped away. but a happy, proud boy stood looking after it.

States Attorney. l.ouis Barnett. Municipal Clerk. Morris l.ehr. lluililli. l.Co Xklt'lCllSt'lllIllllll. The Trial Court of Sabin City has heard forty-five cases this semester. They have made it a policy to treat everyone fairly and squarely. Although Louis llarnett. the states attorney has not lost one case, yet he is fair to all of the de- fendants. So far this semester the trial court has greatly diminished the mnnber of tickets received by the' pupils. and hopes to create and maintain a feeling of cooperation nithizi the pupils so as to make better student government in'Sahin. Week April l-5 April 1-The case of William Feld- man ot' 305 was stricken from the docket because there was a lack of evidence. April 3-Ruth Kane pleaded guilty to five tickets, and was given a poem to recite. The boys of 307 were brought up for trial when they received four tickets tthis is the first entire room to be taken to courtt. They were found guilty, and the whole room had to stay after school for a week. VVeek April 8-13 April. 8-The first case on the docket was that of the girls of 307, their offense being four tickets. Their room's attor- ney, Sam Zivin, pleaded for a minimum punishment: since there were more than the average number of girls in the room. The plea was accepted and the robin had lr silly' three days after school. The next ease was that of Harold Zit- kin of 307 who received three tickets and entered a plea of guilty. The pun- ishment chosen was a week after school. April 10-Fannie Gimple of 301 pleaded guilty to three tickets, and when asked which punislnnent she desired, she chose to stay after school, this punishment being granted. The idea of asking guilty de- fendants which punishment they would like is a new idea in the Sabin Trial Court. It is one instance which shows the Trial Court wishes to treat the de- fendants right. The next case was that of Gabriel Vl'ylraniieni who pleaded not guilty to the offense of three tickets. The case was continued until the following Mon- day. XX-'eek April 15-19 .Xpril I5-The first case was that of Sul Horwitz who had four tickets and Continued on page 2'l

A sail appeared on the horizon, And the flag was that of a foe. All men to the guns ! Said the Captain with a yell. Split her, sink her, Our children of this victory we shall tell ! The British ship came close: Its llag waved on high: lint it is not compared with Old Glory, Whose greatness reaches the sky. The battle which followed, raged for hours. And Captain Hall was amazed, For never had a British ship held out so long. Ilut at last the British flag was lowered, And the surrender flag was raised. As the British flag was lowered, The Americans yelled with cheers: Alas , cried the British commander, The Americans have no fears! Harry Schrogin Pt. 7 It takes a little courage And a little self-control And some grim determination If you want to reach the goalg It takes a deal of striving .-'tnd :i firm and stern set chin, No matter what the battle, If yon're really out to win. There's no easy path to glory, 'l'here's no rosy road to fame: lfifc. however. we may view it, Is no simple parlor 'gamez But its prizes call for fighting. For endurance and for grit. For at rugged disposition Anil a don't-know-when-to-quit.' You must take a blow, or give one. You must risk and you must lose, And expect that in the struggle You will sutier from a bruise. But you mustn't wince or falter If a fight you once begin. Ile a man and face the battle: Th:it's the only way to win. Anonymous. THE FLAG Oh beautiful Flagl of the red white and blue, That stands for the pure, the brave and the true, For You our boy's fought onl for nights and days It's You! we praise and honor always, always. The Star Spangled Banner is sung for Your fame, Francis Scott Key wrote it to honor Your name, Vlfhen he sat in that dark gloomy prison, so brave, He knew if he saw You America was saved. So always my friends and my foes, Honor the Hag where ever you go, For the red, the white and blue, Stands for the pure, the brave, and the true. Esther Simmons 301-8A THE BISHOP'S SHADOW The Bishop's Shadow , is written by Thurston , and takes place in the slums of London. It is a story of a poor boy who lived in the cheapest, dirtiest, streets of London: who lied, robbed, and did everything in the world a boy should not do. This boy was not to be blamed too much, for he had no home, no parents, and no one to guide him. This boys name was Theo. His friends at this time were Nan, Little Brother , Mr. Scott, and Mrs. Martin. After Theo. meets Nan and Little Brother he is much nicer and realizes he must take care of them until Nan can Gnd work. He loves Little Brother and will do anything for him. . One of the saddest events was when Nan and Little Brother leave. Nan has been cooking for days to earn a liv- ing and has overworked herself. The baby had become sick as he has not had enough air and it was necessary to take them away for health and rest. As Nan and the baby started on the train, their eyes met Theo's. His smile was tearful and there was a lump in his throat. He loved these precious folks and they were his only home, and pleas- ure. - As Nan held up Little Brother , whom he loved, he smiled cheerfully, and waved at last goodbye' He was a man now, he thought, and Nan needed the rest, so after thinking a while he set ol? with a light heart. This hook is so interesting, so touch- ing, so humorous that I do not know what to call it. I can only say that though this is the second time I have read it, l have been as interested in it as if it were the first time. It is not like other books I have read. It is diff- ent in a way that I can not explain. My one wish would be for the library to circulate more books like this and then I would read more.
