i PENSEES LOOKING FORWARD IT SOMETIMES SEENS A BDTHER T0 KEEP POSTED ON WORLD AFFAIRS WHEN THEY SEEN So REMOTE FROM OUR INTEREST. BUT ARE THEY? ARE WE AS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS so FAR FRDN ADULTHOOD THAT WE CAN DHILDISHLY SHUT OUR EYES T0 REALITY, LIVING IDLY FROM DAY T0 DAY, BELIEVING ALL THAT MATTERS IS OUR HAVING A GoDD TINET IT WON'T BE LONG BEFORE THE RESPONSIBIL- ITIES AND PROBLEMS THAT ARE OUR PARENTS' TO- DAY WILL CHALLENGE Us. WE MUST REALIZE NOW THAT IT IS TIME T0 PREPARE OURSELVES FDR OUR APPRDADHING DUTY. THE AGE WE LIVE IN IS DARK. WE IN HIGH SCHOOL MUST BEGIN TO COMBAT THE EVIL FDRDES OF HATRED, FEAR, GREED, AND IGNDRANDE wHIcH HAVE wREcKED THE HAPPINESS AND wELL-BEING or THE PRESENT WORLD, BY SEE- ING THAT WE DURSELVES ARE INNOCENT OF THESE DETRINENTAL QUALITIES IN OUR DAILY LIVES. BY BEING TOLERANT, INTELLIGENT, coURAGEous CITIZENS w: WILL BUILD UP A STRONG BULHARK AGAINST ALL AGGRESSIVE FORCES. E. JENNINGS --- 0 --- NEVER SAY DIE! MY BROTHER PREFERS TO SLEEP ALONE AND WAS VERY ANNDYED RECENTLY WHEN HE DISDDVERED A SMALL MOUSE SHARING HIS BED. THE MOUSE DLAINED THERE wAs ROOM FOR BOTH OF THEN TO REST IN COMFORT BUT CLIFTON HAD A DIFFERENT IDEA. BEING VERY TIRED, HE TOOK NO ACTION UNTIL THE Nous: PLAYFULLV KISSED HIN. THAT wAs TOO NUDH, AND CLIFTON SPRANG OUT OF BED WITH AN AWFUL PURPOSE IN HIS EVE. THE MOUSE PROMPTLY APPROPRIATED ONE OF THE BEDPDSTS FOR A SORT OF LDDKDUT STATION AND LANDNARK IN CASE OF BATTLE, AND EYED CLIFTON COOLLY WITH ONE BOUND, MAN GAVE DHASE T0 NDUSE. WHICH WAS NAN AND WHICH wAs NDUSE, WOULD BE EKDEEDINGLY HARD T0 TELL. CLIFTON BECAME ENTANGLED WITH THE NOW UN- OCCUPIED BEDPDST AND THE NDUSE wHIsTLED DHEERFULLY FROM THE PICTURE FRAMEQFRON FRAME T0 WINDOW SILL, AND FROM DRESSCR TO TIE RACK, THE Nous: LED A MERRY CHASE. CLIFTON FINALLY FALTERED AND SAT DOWN TO REST. THE MOUSE SUGGESTED CALMLY, 'WHY NOT BE REASONABLE AND G0 BACK TO BED. I'N WILL- ING TO LET You HAVE HALF THE BED. lT's You wHo STARTED ALL THIS. I wAs SATlSFIED.' 'I'LL HAVE THE WHOLE BED FOR MYSELF AND You, VERMIN THAT You ARE, SHALL KNOW A COLDER FATE THAN EVER You HAVE DREANED 0F,' QUDTH HE AND AGAIN THE FIGHT wAs DN. SHOES, PILLOWS, BRUSHES, CLIFTON, AND THE MOUSE MINGLED IN HDPELESS CONFUSION. WHEN THE MOUSE JUMPED INTO A BUREAU DRAwER, CLIFTON POUNDED AN OLD GARTER FOR SEVERAL ExULTANT MINUTES BEFORE DISDDVERING HIS HISTAKE. THE BED, BV THIS TIME wAs OVERTURNED, AND SHOES AND OTHER HISDELLANY WERE SDATTERED OVER THE ROOM AS CLIFTON WENT BACK T0 HIS CORNER AND RECON- SIDERED. THE Nous: PROMPTLY JUMPED UP INTO THE BEDSPRINGS AND BEGAN A SYSTEMATIC ExAN- INATION OF THE ENTIRE NEDHANISN. CLIFTON WENT BACK TO BED T0 WAIT, AND AWOKE A QUARTER or AN HOUR LATER TO FIND HIS FOE SNDRING GENTLY IN HIS EAR. AH, THE HDRRDRS OF THE NEXT SEVERAL MIN- UTES WERE INDESCRIBABLE! How BITTER IS THE FRAY WHEN STRONG WILL3 CLASH AND HOW UNPRED- IGTABLE THE OUTCOMEQ TIRED AND HAGGARD BUT VIDTDRIDUS, CLIFTON EMERGED FROM THE RDDN THE NEXT NDRNING, CARRYING A SMALL AND ONCE VALIANT Nous: QV THE TAIL. How LITTLE THE UNKNOWING DBSERVER WOULD GUESS OF THE REAL SIGNIFIDANDE OF THAT BATTLE: THE INEVITABLE BATTLE BETWEEN MAN AND MDUSE. P. RICHARDS --- 0 --- DEMOCRACY IN THIS SCHOOL I HAVE BEEN TDLD BY STUDENTS COMING HERE FRDN OTHER SCHOOLS THAT OUR SCHOOL IS VERY DEMOCRATIC. I THINK IT IS. WE HAVE ACCESS TO OUR ROOMS AT NOON T0 PLAY CHINESE CHECKERS, STUDY QR JUST SIT AND TALK. WE CAN G0 DVER- TOWN IF WE WISH. WE DAN READ FROM A GOOD Su- PLY OF BOOKS IN DUR LIBRARY OR WE CAN GO TO THE GYM AND PLAY BASKETBALL OR WATCH SDNEDNE ELSE PLAY. WE NEARLY NAKE OUR owN RULES BUT WHEN THEY ARE BROKEN SOMETIMES MORE DRASTIG MEASURES MUST BE TAKEN. WE ALSO HAVE OUR STUDENT'S ASSOCIATION DDNSISTING OF EVERY ONE WHO wISHES TO JOIN FRDN THE SEVENTH T0 TwELVTH GRADES. THIS STUDENT'S ASSOCIATION AS STATED IN THE PRE' AMBLE, RPROMOTES EXYRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES sucH AS ATHLETICS, MUSIC, DRANATIDS, ETC: POSTERS A MORE AcTIvE SCHOOL SPIRIT AND PRD- VIDES FDR THE SOCIAL WELFARE OF THE STUDENTS! EACH YEAR WE ELECT THE MEMBERS OF DUR STUDENT COUNCIL OR GOVERNING BODY. OUR STUDENT'S As- SDDIATIDN GDVERNNENT COMPARES FAVORABLV WITH OUR NATIONAL GOVERNMENT. J. LDHR --- 0 --- NBUMBER SHOOTSn I RECENTLY WENT SHOPPING ON A DAY THAT wAs AS wET AND SOGGV AS MILK-SOAKED CEREAL- I wAs VERY INTERESTED, THDUGH, IN THE ASSORT- ED COLORS, SHAPES, AND SIZES OF THE VARIOUS INSTRUMENTS USED AS PROTECTION AGAINST THE ELEMENTS. As IS USUAL IN ANY COMMON SHOWING, THERE wAs A LIMITED NUMBER OF DLD-FASHIDNED UMBRELH AS, BLACK AS HATE, ARTLESS,AND BIG ENOUGH T0 COVER THREE PEOPLE WHEN LITTLE SISTER INSISTS ON ACCOMPANYING THE YOUNG COUPLE ON THEIR SUN- DAY AFTERNOON wH.K. TH: RIBS OF DNE OF THESE SPECIMENS WOULD RENIND A FARM BOY OF A HORSE WHO HAD NEVER HAD QUITE ENOUGH TO EAT. THERE WERE DAINTY POLKA-DOT UNBRELLAS IN LIGHT, SOFT HUES THAT RENINDED ONE OF DENURE YOUNG GIRLS WHO SHYLY SMILE AT PASSING NEN- BERS OF THE GENUS HONG- THERE WERE GAYLY STRIPED UMBRELLAS THAT EXPOUNDED DHEERFULNESS AND AN DPTINISTID VIEw OF LIFE. DONALD DUCK AND PINOCCHID BDBBED NERRILY DOWN THE STREET. I SAw BIG-FLOWERED UMBRELLAS WITH CLASH- ING DAUBS OF PAINT. I COULD NOT HELP BUT THINK OF THE SIMILARITY BETWEEN THESE UN- BRELLAS AND THE KIND OF CHIFFON DRESSES THAT STOUT LADIES D0 INQIQT ON wEARING ON swELTER- ING SUMMER DAYS. THERE WERE ALSO NDDEST UN- BRELLAS IN PLAIN BROWNS, GREENS, THAT HENT THERE WERE WHITE UNBRELLAS SPRIGS OF SPRING FLOWERS, CHECKERED UMBRELLAS BROKEN UMBRELLAS, GAUDY AND ANCIENT UMBRELLAS AND SOME FETID UMBRELLAS, TH: CAUSE OF THE UNPLEASANTNESS BEING ATTRIBUTED T0 THEIR NEW- NESS. You SEE, THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF UN- BRELLAS JUST AS THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE. AND BLUES, WALKING QUIETLY DOWN THE STREET. WITH DAINTY
