ARLINOrOX lIIGlf SCHOOL CLARION. ' 5 March 12: Resolved, “That immi- fjration be restricted.” Decided in the negative. Tlie first school social of the year, given by the Debating Society, was held in Cotting Hall on the evening of March 4th, at 7.45. About one hundred were present, including the Principal and his wife, the teachers and pupils. The Class of ’y6 was also invited, and was well rep- resented. The first part of the evening was devoted to a formal program: Piano Solo Harold B. Wood History of the Club . Warren C. Taylor Piano Solo .... Francis L. Powers “The Referendum” . . Charles C. Tufts Piano Solo Harold B. Wood Sketch from Victor Hugo’s ’93, Harold B. Wood General Debate . Members of the Club The program proved very interesting. The piano solos were well rendered, and received hearty applause. “The Refer- endum” was most ably handled, and many powerful arguments in its favor were presented. Harold Wood’s decla- mation, that famous description of the fight with the cannon, taken from Victor Hugo’s “Ninety-three,” was exceedingly interesting, and was rendered in a mas- terly manner. Refreshments followed the ])rogram, after which the entertain- ment took the form of a book party. There were many clever representations of books, and it was great fun to puzzle out their meanings. The object of the evening, namely, to promote sociability among the members of the school, was certainly fulfilled. E. B. LEAVirr. Pyactical Hair Cut tec. T-vo clean worknicn. A clean shop.

M ARLIJS ' GTON HIGH SCHOOL CLARION. truly ing-enious device, designed by i Ir. Holt for what we call a back-stop.” We need only say that we are told that it works to perfection. r.ENERAL NOTES. At the last meeting of the A. 11 . S. Athletic. As.sociation, a motion was passed that no one who has not played on one of the first teams be allowed to wear an A. on his school sweater. The idea was to rouse intere.st among the lower class men to keep up the high standard in athletics which the school has maintained for the last few years, ' hhe success of a school in athletics is largely due to the interest shown by its members. The more men there are for a ])osition, the harder each man has to fight to keep his j)Osition. Don’t forget, boys, that it ' s most time for the election of next year ' s football captain.
