ARLIXGTOX HIGH SCHOOL C LARI OX. the most of the op])ortunities their af- forded, while connected witli this clui). d ' liey liave realized the utility of such an orjj anization, not only in ])ronioting a spirit of intelligent patriotism among its memhers. hnt also in awakening an in- terest in the great pnhlic (jiiestions of the day, which might not otherwise have been felt. They have thns gained an in- sight into matters of national import- ance, and have, in consecpience, broad- ened their general knowledge beyond what it was possible to gain through the ordinary routine of their school life. ’e, therefore, welcome all as mem- bers of the Lyceum, confidently assuring them that, if they take hold of the work of the club with a spirit of earnest en- deavor to make the most of its advan- tages, they will receive abundant reward for their time and labor. A great majority of the boys of the school are members of the A. A. A., which takes sole charge of the athletics. Football in the fall, ice-polo in the win- ter, baseball in the spring, call forth the active efforts of the association through- out the school year. .Athletics are certainly to be h ighly commended. A school with no interest in sports demanding the exercise of the muscles would never amount to much. “Mens Sana in corpore sano,” is an excel- lent motto. “Mens sana in corpore in- ' -ano,” would be like putting new wine into old bottles. The bottles would crack and the wine would be lost. Provided they do not encroach too much upon the time necessary to the preparation of lessons, the athletics re- ceive the hej||?t endorsement of teach- ers and scholars alike. We are proud to state that our football, baseball and ice- ])olo teams are noted for the manly and straightforward way in which they con- duct all thcix games, and the many well- deserved successes which they have achieved dtiring the past fall and win- ler, have been a source of great pride and .satisfaction to the entire school. It has been the custom for several years for the tnembers of each Junior Class to present to the school a picture or bust, as a slight token of their apprecia- tion of the advantags which their school life has afforded them. This custom, which it is earnestly ho])ed will be long- continued, has done much to render the walls of our school-rooms tasteful, pleas- ant, and homelike. It has been said that there is nothing more conducive to the development of refinement in character, than the living in an atmos])here where one is constantly surrounded by works of art from the brushes of the great mas- ters. If this be true, the school owes, assuredly, a heavy debt of gratitude to its alumni. There still remains, however, ample opportunity for im])roving the interior appearance of the building. Though the walls of the two large assembly rooms are handsomely adorned, and the small- er class rooms adjoining these are also artistically decorated, yet the halls and corridors are as yet practically without ornamentation. We sincerely hope, therefore, that the grand old custom of the presentation to the school of suitable works of art will be continued in the future, as it has been faithfully observed in the ] ast, till every niche shall contain its l)ust or statue, and every inch of wall-si)ace hitherto unoccupied shall be brightened and beautified by some masterjiiece of ancient or modern ])ainting. The Editors of The Clarion take this opportunity of publicly expre.ssing their thanks to Mr. Charles S. Parker, Senior Editor of the Advocate, for the assist- ance he has rendered them in ])lanning the first issue of our ] aper. His advice and helpful suggestions in regard to va- rious details of the work we have under- taken have been most valuable. In our effort to put The Clarion on a sound fi- nancial basis for the ensuing year the counsel of an ex] erienced business man and practical printer like Mr. Parker has very materially aided us, and because this assistance was given so willinglv and cheerfully the P)Oard feel deeply indebted to the Editor of the .Advocate.
