.1 .if-gf--T -if!-w Wg- 6 , i ' - d.Ll1U H . n'f' It is easy to get information on a great many subjects without working very hard or prying very far beneath the surface. There are, once in a while, some students who boast about taking a subject throughout a term and never having to consult a text book, and still getting good grades. It is unusual, but not im- possible, for a bright student. By failing 'to exert himself, so that he will stand out in a superior position, he is cheating himself of a chance to excel, and the class in that he lowers its normal average. What more pitiful sight does one see in a school than that of a boy or girl who follows rather than bother himself to lead, who is -O-0-04-0-o-9-so-O-0-0-9-0-0-0+-0-Q satisfied with getting by when he might win something of real value for himself then, and in later life. He will probably find that with this kind of training, it will be possible to make good im- pressions and to pass such tests as he will be called upon to take. Sooner or later, however. a real test will come and on its outcome will depend the success or failure of his life. If he has always been satisfied to just get by he will fail in the crisis, which will require the best. The failure is due to defective foundations. A good solid foundation is the only basis of success in any work, and is built only by dili- gent preparation in school and school work. 0-G++-0-0-Q-+0-0-O-Q-0-0-vo JUNIOR CLASS The oiiicers for the Junior class for the year are: Arda Mason, presidentg Roberta Crum, vice-presidentg Dot Murray, secretary and treasurer. The class was entertained by the Seniors at a delightful party, early in the year. They are planning a trip to Nelson Ledges soon, for the entertainment of the Seniors. The Juniors also had a sleigh-ride party, which everyone agreed was a decided success. For the Junior-Senior party, the Juniors arc: planning on a trip to Cleveland. The plans are not complete yet but indications point to a fine time for all. The Juniors, being badly in need of funds. held a bake sale on the 13th of April. It was a big success in spite of the unlucky date on which it was held. The class sent several of its members on the recent band trip to Akron, and proudly admits that it has six star basketball players in its enrollment. 044444044-+00-044-0-Q-QQ-90-04-0-o0oo+oo Page 'Vme
