- ----A--l-v-H '-1 ' s 1 , i 777 Y H-Q gr l l Vocational Guidance N the Vocational Civics and Information classes of Central Junior High School, the boys and girls learn how they can discover their abilities and get help in choosing their life wor k. They also study different occupations. All seventh and eighth grade pupils study educational and vocational information. The ninth grades study vocational civics. All 7B pupils study how the world's work is done and how to be successful both in school and after school days are past. They study habits and personality. In the 7A classes pupils plan educational futures. They read Stories of the Day's Work, and biographies of successful men and women. The 9B3 and 9A3 groups study vocational civic, make charts, and keep notebooks with pictures and information of different kinds of occupations, woodwork, cabinet, woodturning, forging, sheet metal, machine shop, cement, plumbing, printing, and electricity. Girls have foods clothing, bookkeeping, typing, art, cos- tume designing. In 8B classes all pupils learn how to apply for a position, write letters of application, and start the study of occupations. They write business letters to see if they can write an ap- plication that will succeed in getting a position. In the 8A classes pupils study occupations and get practise in filing and learn about junior office work. By studying the different kinds of occupations, the boys and girls learn about the work they would like to do and also what they are best fitted for. The Central Junior High School counselor is Mr. B. F. Staebell. If a boy or girl is behind in his studies he goes to Mr. Staebell to find out how he can improve. Pupils also go to him to get help in choosing an occupation or getting a job. Home room teachers are also counselors for their groups. This year all vocational boys took the Stenquist Mechanical Aptitude tests to help them find out their mechanical ability. Viola Haefele and Martha Dubay Why Some Roses Climb and Others Do Not Once upon a time, there was a beautiful bush of roses. This bush of roses loved to stay at home and have ber friends admire her beau- ty. There was also another bush of roses who loved to stay at home, but her petals did not fold as closely as did the others, nor were they so fine, and just because she wanted to be dif- ferent, told everybody that she longed to climb away. One day Mother Nature heard her conver- sing with some of her neighbors, and she though she would give her a chance to climb and be different from her friends, so touching her with her wand, she said, You may climb all you want to, dear rose. So the rambler-for that is what the people call her-has been forced to climb ever since while the other roses may stay at home in peace. Clara Reinke Limericks From The Vocational Classes There was an old man from Calcutta, Who always used to stutta. He screwed up his face, When he tried to say grace, That poor old man from Calcutta. Gerald Bark There was a farmer from Wooster, Who had a very fine rooster, One day it died, The farmer he cried, Now it does not cry like it uster. Doris Perkins There was a woman from Wheeler, Who went to a funny old dealer. She asked for some bread, She gave her some thread, That funny old dealer in Wheeler. Freda Arndt There was an old miser in Siam, Who said, There's no one so saving as I am. Giving a dime He considered a crime This stingy old miser in Siam.

' '-'m '- Q 1 This War Stuff ANY people are interested in our foreign relations towards China, Mexico, and Nicaragua. This thing needs clearing up. Everybody is going around prophesying a war like proverbial prophets always do, but President Coolidge expresses a different view. The contents of this view were exposed at a dinner given by the U. S. Press Association. The President's speech is a reply to those Americans who have been criticizing the foreign policy of his administration. Those honorables take the stand that the dispute between Mexico should have been settled by arbitration, and that the U. S. should withdraw her marines an d warships fro rn Nicaragua and China. Their View is that citizens in foreign countries should take their own risks and that the govern- ment shouldn,t feel bound to protect them. The President's reply to this is as follows: While it is a Well established international law that we have no right meddlingin the domestic affairs of other countries in their dealings with their own citizens, it is equally well established that our Government has certain rights, and certain duties toward our own citizens and property wherever they may be located. The person and property of a citizen are a part of the general domain of the Nations, even when abroad. On the other hand there is a distinct and binding obligation on the part of all self-respecting nations to protect the per- son and property of their citizens. These rights go with the citizen. Wherever he goes these duties of our government must follow him. I This message points out the answer to the dispute with Mexico. The dispute is: The Mexi- cans claim that the property there belongs to their republic. Congress claims it was pur- chased before 1917. therefore it is legal. Many times war prophets prophesied an- other war, but we did not have one. We explain- ed to the Mexicans, they explained to us the result was that the dispute was ended peace- fully. Recently their minister to the United States expressed a wish from the Mexican peo- ple. The wish was: We wish to keep on friend- ly terms with America. This Congress was only too glad to grant. The President has this to say about Nica- ragua: For twelve years we have kept a torce of marines in Nicaragua and while they were there everything was calm and peaceful like fthis does not tally with my knowledge of the marinesj. When we withdrew our troops a re- volution was started, the people elected a new presidentg our government recognized him, and we are at peace with the world? CBy Irving Berlin.j Marjorie McKinney Too Good to be True S I awakened by my four cylinder, forty horse power, thirty-six pound, noiseless, patented waking machine. I saw that it was raining, and so I pressed a button labled Clothes for Stormy Weather. I had hardly finished when I heard a grinding of wheels, and I was lifted up on the mattress by pulleys and carried into the bathroom where I was dumped into the waiting bath water. Very soon I was lifted out and dried by a revolving towel. As I started to take a step the floor began to move, and a chair was thrust out from nowhere. ' Around the bend in the hall the floor stopped and a rack of some twenty-tive suits or more was pushed in front of me. A short distance and the floor again stopped and out of the ceiling came a rack of shoes. Each pair was equipped with rubbers, as I had pushed the button for clothes for stormy Weather. As the floor moved on, I noticed a door ahead opening by itself, which led into the dining room, and as I came in I saw a chair moving out which Cas I sat down in itj moved up to the table. At my right was a row of buttons labeled, pancakes, cream of wheat, bacon and eggs and other delightful breakfast things. After a hearty breakfast I was carried swiftly out on the front porch, clad in a rain' coat and a hat which had been put on the minute I left the table. N. B. There was only one flaw to all this I had to push the button. Morley Warren Rhythm club The rhythm club has met in the girls' gym every Friday at clearing hour since the begin- ning of the school year. ' The club was started by Mrs. Sanford and she has acted as its sponsor. The purpose of the club is to have its members know and feel rhythm. We have made tine progress during the year and our first big project was clogging. We are now taking up Greek Friezes, working with balloons and scarfs and are spend- ing the time now in developing the folding and unfolding of a flower. At the first of the hour we all take different back exercises, folding and unfolding is among them. After we feel relaxed and free, we tran- slate different music, each telling what story she thinks the music tells. Then we practice the frieze work. Follow- ing this we have a few minutes of free play. The club membership is about thirty and to enjoy the work one must take it seriously. Dorothy Warne iQ :- ,f -. ,. .
