WASHINGTON Why is it we ' re still celebrating Washington ' s birthday after two hundred years have passed? Why didn ' t we foiget him soon after he died? The reason is: Washington was a good, true man — the kind of man our country needs more of. He did things for his country, did them without delay. He is one man who will always live in cur hearts as well as our memories. There are very few men equal to Washington, but if we children live lives half as good as Washington ' s, our nation will be proud of us, too. — Lorraine Schott H7y CONDUCT Do you behave as you should on every occasion, at school as well as at any other yjlace? At school your conduct should be such that the rest of the school may be proud of you. If a few people are disorderly it spoils the reputation of the whole school. People form an opinion of you by the way you control yourself. You should never speak so loudly that you disturb others. The problem of self control is one which only yourself can remedy. Try hard to set a good example and not lower other people ' s opinion of you or your school. — Sis a Schlafke H9y ' TRUE COURAGE The WIZARD class just received an editorial from the Bur- bank Junior High School in Houston, Texas. Their paper is called the WIZARD, too. ' A statement from one of the editori- als was, Anyone can do wrong but it takes courage to do right. If you should go home and find seme small article ly- ing in front of your house what would you do? Temptation is a great thing. You might become attached to this article immedi- ately. Of course you would not like to give it up. It would be easy to keep it, and it might make you happy because you found it; but think of the person who lost it. It might have been very valuable to him and to you it is only an eyecatching trinket. Why not get up courage enough to give it to the ‘per- son, or find means by which to give it to him? You can do

well without it. If you start keeping small things you find you may end keening large and very valuable things. Don ' t start wrong practices. Have you true courage? — Jeanne Campbell L9z ' THE VALUE OF WISDOM The price of wisdom is above rubies: a statement to be found in the Bible, Job XXVIII:18, is very true. One would rather have wisdom than any ruby in the world. Why? Because wisdom is not only worth more mentally, but it is worth more than its weight in gold. If you had the rubies and lacked the wisdom you would soon lose all and have nothing. So make use of your school education; learn, work to learn; then someday you will realize what your education has, or would have, done had you applied your whole mind and thought to it. — Dorothy Conrad H9z ' SELF CONTROL Self control makes you stronger, more able to face facts as they are, and it makes you happier in many ways. You can gain self control if you try and work hard at it. If you are weak and give in at every little thing you lack self control. Do you lack self control? — Irma Nemo H8y THE SILVER B Upon entering Burbank many of us say, Why work for the Silver ' B 1 now? The time we receive it is yet three years away. True; but do you ever think that upon entering Burbank that we are either forming or not forming the foundation which is needed to obtain the Silver ’B ? We advance until we have reached the ninth grade, and then we finally realize that if we are to receive that B we had better work. At that time it is too late, and we are just trying to get something we know we don ' t deserve. If we want the B we should work for it so we will be able to say honestly that we earned it, — Frank Veils H8v '
