ARE WE PAYING OuR DEBTST So MANY STUDENTS IN CANDOR HIGH SCHOOL EN- aov COMING Fon THE SOCIAL CONTACTS AND THE FUN THEY HAVE. OF COURSE, CLASSES ARE ALL RIGHT IF YOUR TEACHER IS GOOD-NATURED, BUT HAVE ALL THE FUN vou CAN AND THEN DO voun LEsSoNs, IF vou HAVE TIME. THIS ATTITUDE IS, IN NO WAY, JUSTIFIEDA WHAT THE MAJORITY OF STUDENTS DONIT THINK BUT THERE IS ONE THING THAT DOESN'T FIT ABOUT IS THAT THERE'S A GREAT DEAL OF MONEY INVOLVED IN KEEPING A SCHOOL LIKE OURS RUN- NING SMOOTHLY AND COMFORTABLYJ THERE'S A BILL FOR FUELS,A BILL FOR LIGHTS, TEXTBOOKS,TEACH- ERS' cHEcKS,NEw DESKS NOW AND THEN,LAB.EQUIP- HENT, ETC. ALL THESE THINGS TAKE MONEY AND WHERE'S THAT MONEY COMING FROM? FIRST OF ALL, OUR PARENTS ARE PAYING TOWARD THE TOTAL. AND THE PEOPLE ALL ALONG ouR sTREET,THE PEOPLE IN THE NEXT BLOCK ARE PAYING. EVEN THE STATE IS PAVING FoR THIS scHooL. IT Husr BE MIGHTY IM- PDRTANT FOR us TO GO TO SCHOOL, OR ALL THIS MONEY WOULD NOT BE PAID. THE PEOPLE or ouR TOWN THINK WE SHOULD BE EDUCATED ANDfTHE GOV- ERNMENT THINKS WE SHOULD BE EDUCATED. THOSE PEOPLE ARE INVESTING MONEY IN U3 AND THEY gx- PEcT RETURNS,THAT IS,THEv EXPECT US T0 ABSOR8 EVERY ouNcE or KNOWLEDGE WE cAN AND THEN GO OUT AND usE IT TO GOOD PURPOSE. ARENIT WE REALLY ROBBING AND DISAPPDINTING THESE PEOPLE sv BEING POOR INVESTMENTS, WHEN WE'RE cAPAsLE OF DOING so MUCH HDREI ARENIT WE ROBBING THEM WHEN WE LET THEM HIRE TEADHERS AND THEN DON'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THAT THE TEACHERS CAN GIVE us? STUDENTS, I DON'T WONDER THAT vouR FACES ARE RED. You SHQQLD BE ASHAMED! LET'S ALL BE Gooo INVESTMENTS: SHow PEOPLE THAT THEY HAD THE RIGHT IDEA WHEN THEY SENT gg TO SCHOOL. C.

SPRING IS REBIRTH AND AWAKENING. IT IS THE SYMBOL OF NEW LIFE AND NEW HOPE. SPRING MATURES INTO SUMMER, INTO YOUNG MANHOOD AND WOMANHOOD, INTO VOCATIONAL CHOICE AND MARRIAGE. AUTUMN IS THE ZENITH OF LIFE. THE FRUIT OF OUR LABORS RIPENS. WE HAVE REACHED COMPLETE GROWTH AS FAR AS VITAL QUESTIONS ARE CONCERNED. WE HAVE VERY DEF- INITE THEORIES AND BELIEFS AS A RESULT OF LIVING AND LEARNING. SNOW FLAKES FLY AND A WHITE CALM OF PURITY AND PEACE SETTLES OVER US IN OLD AGE. THE SNOW KEEPS BEAUTIFULLY WARM THE FLOWERS IN OUR HEARTS, THE MEMORIES AND THE YOUNGNESS,THE PAST JOYS AND ENJOYABLE TIMES. WE ARE NOT REALLY SORRY TO SLIP AWAY WHEN WE HAVE LIVED OUR LIFE YEARS. INTO MY PHILOSOPHY--MY THE BRIGHT LEAVES FALL TIME WHEN EVERYTHING UNDER A COLD SKY. THE AND OF THE HEART, HAVE BIT CHILLED BEFORE THE UNDERSTAND THIS PERIOD, PATTERN OF LIFE. AFTER AND FADE,Is A LAPSE OF STANDS BLEAK AND DARE FLOWERS OF THE GARDEN, A CHANCE OF BECOMING A SNOW COMES. I CANNOT OR MAKE IT FIT. WHEN WALKING IN THE WOODS, THE TRAIL WAS COVERED WITH BROWN LEAVES, AND I WALKED A LONG TIME, TRYING TO FEEL RIGHTNESS AND THE BEAUTY--THE LESSON LINED WITH BARE TREES. THE THIS PERIOD TELLS. I COULD FIND NOTHING AND CAME HOME FEELING DEJECTED. I DO NOT LIKE TIME OF YEAR BECAUSE THIS I CANNOT MAKE IT FIT. MAYBE, SOMEDAY, THIS ODDLY SHAPED PIECE WILL FIT INTO MY OTHERWISE PERFECT PUZZLE AND I WILL BE COMPLETELY AT PEACE WITH THE UNIVERSE ,SL A ?'I , 4 . . I , 1 I A ,, ,1 . , - ,, A- ,.S-WM. 5 .

THE ADVENTURES OF A CENT I STARTED THIRTY YEARS Aco AS AN INSIG- NIFICANT PIECE or COPPER PLATE. I wAs SENT T0 A GOVERNMENT MINT AND NPUT THROUGH THE MILLI. I wAs CUT AND PUNCHED AND HEATED AND WORKED ON UNTIL I THOUGHT l'D DIE BUT IT WAS WORTH IT I GUEss. WHEN I CAME DUT, I wAs AS SHINY AND Gooo LOOKING AS ANY DOIN IN AMERICA MY FIRST TRIP OF THE NEW JOB STARTED WHEN I WAS COUNTED INTO THE BAG AT THE MINT. I WAS SENT TO A FEDERAL REsERvE BANH AND THEN TO A LOCAL BANK. FROM THERE I FOUND A PLACE IN THE CITY'S POST OFFICE. THEN IN CAME A SHINY PENNIES LIKE HE PUT ME WITH SOME MAN LOOKING FOR BRIGHT, MYSELF AND I WAS PICKED. OTHERS IN A LITTLE eov's CHRISTMAS STOCKING. SINCE THEN I'vE HAD MANY vARIED EXPERI- ENCES WHILE CARRYING OUT THE BUSINESS OF THE GDVERNMENT. I'vE SEEN THE POCKETS OF WEALTH AND OF LABORQMADE MV HOME IN THE POCKET-BOOKS OF HOUSEWIVES AND RESTED IN THOUSANDS OF CASH DRAwERs IN STORES. I'vE BEEN LOST IN MUD, SNOWDRIFTS, AND CINDERS. I'vE BEEN FOUND av LITTLE BOYS WHO PROMPTLY SPENT ME, AND BY PET Cnows wHo HID ME WITH OTHER SHINY OBJECTS. I'vE HAD TWO vERv CLOSE CALLS IN Mv DAYS, THE FIRST BEING ON A RAILROAD TRACK. A BOY WANTED TO SEE How FLAT A FREIGHT TRAIN COULD CRUSH ME AND ALMOST SUCCEEDED. THE JARING AND SHARING CAUSED av THE HUGE LoCoMoTIvE sHoox ME oFF THE RAIL JUST IN TIME. THE SEC- CND TIME WAS DURING THE WORLD WAR. I wAs IN THE POCKET OF A SOLDIER FROM OUR COUNTRY WHO WAS FIGHTING IN THE TRENCHES AT THE MARNE. A SHELL FROM THE ENEMY ALMosT BLEw Us BOTH T0 PIECES BUT NDT QUITE. HE WAS WOUNDED, How- EVER,AND WHILE IN THE HOSPITAL I STARTED BACK HOME- I HOPE THAT I SHALL NOT TAKE CHANGES LIKE THAT AGAIN. NONE OF EUROPE'S COINS ARE AS GOOD AS OURS, AS SHINY AND USEFUL TOO. WHY SHOULD WE GO OVER THERE WITHOUT A VERY GOOD REASON. --- 0 --- KEY TO SNAPSHOTS I.
