EDITORIAL This year it was not necessary to look far for the subject of our editor- ial. We a'.l thought, that as long as we have the honor of being the first class to graduate from the new school building, our new school would be an appropriate topic. Probably everyone who reads this article, has seen the new building and will agree with us that it is worthy of our sincere admir- tion. That it has inspired the scholastic of the pupils is shown by the in- creased number of students on the honor roll. It has had a stimulating effect on athletics, for we have just finished the most successful season in many years; in fact, without the new gymnasium, it would have been im- possible to have had a Basketball team. In addition to this many fine entertainments have been held in the new Auditorium which otherwise could not have been given, and in which not only students hut also the peo- ple of the town have shown interest. These things have produced a notice- able effect on the school spirit of B. H. S. All in all we Seniors believe that Baldwinsville now has a High School of which all may well be proud and which is worthy of the utmost loyalty and devotion from every student and alumnus. J. VAN B. COE. THE CLASS PLAY '‘Strong Medicine,” a comedy in two acts, was chosen by a committee appointed from the members of the Senior Class. In it, Dr. Gordon, who has proposed to Dr. Davidson's daughter at the hospital In the morning between operations and has been rejected, of course, is very ill at ease. Dr. Davidson, liking the young doctor, arranges an informal evening party to help restore Dr. Gordon in his daughter’s graces. To this party he invites Miss Crisp, his very business-like young lady attendant; Mrs. Van Tilt, a very fashionable lady who is fashionably ill at his sanatarium; or, rather, thinks she is; and his orderly. Kenry who is a very cheerful(?) person. On receiving a telephone call that his daughter. Kitty, will not be home for a half hour. Dr. Davidson decides that it would be best to stag a rehearsal wdth Miss Crisp acting in Kitty’s place. The rehearsal changes to a reality (partly through some wine served by Mary, the maid). Miss Crisp accepts Dr. Gordon’s proposal and Mrs. Van Tilt. Dr. Davidson's. A telegram arrives just before the end which states that Kitty has been mar- ried and is returning home with her husband and the minister. Thus all parties are satisfied and the play has a delightful ending. I r. Davidson . . Dr. Gordon . . . Miss Crisp Mrs. Van Tilt Mary, the maid Henry.......... CAST OF CHARACTERS ......... George D.
