Good luck to you, boy8. CHS Our Armistice Day foe. Eaton Rap- ids. seems to have gotten off to a poor start, losing to Holt, a class C school, 20-0. Maybe that’s our cue gang! CHS We’re all wondering why so many of the football players were all dresse.i up for the Coldwater game. Maybe it’» a secret so If you know, girls, don’t tell the coach. Students Choose ‘Alma Mater’ as School Song At the pep meeting before the Ionia football game the band played the song “Alma Mater'' and the students voted to have It for the school song. Try-o ts for a new cheer leader were also held. 'Alma Mater” was taken from a band march by Bigelow named Our Director.” The words were written by Mr. Hynes.

The following officers were elected: Presi- dent, Kenneth Rogers; vice president. Rose Day; secretary. Kathleen Rolfe; and treasurer, Catherine Durner. Meetings are to be held every other Monday night at the high school. It was also decided that all those who were members of the club last year should be included as members this year. This is unusual as the club us- ually begins the year with the second year shorthand students only. The rest are usually admitted after the first marking period. This near method brings the membership up to twenty- seven. Mixer Rhythm A sculpture of The Thinker may make a restful picture and be toad for thought' but who likes to see it on a bench at the student mixers? The seats are there lor rest between dances or to use while waiting for someone to dance. Refreshments and refreshment tables are to be used for variation during the dance pro- gram. The orchestra and decorations are obtained to put the crowd in a gay mood for fun and dancing. Every possible idea has been considered to make these parties bigger and better. When the orchestra announces n novelty number, make it novel! The mixers are for us. make them ours. Wind ourselves up and come to the mixer for a dancing good time! Today’s Responsibilities Every day we read of the deaths caused by automobiles; vividly illus- trated posters warn us of our constant danger in relation to the auto, yet we seldom give them a second thought. Then suddenly a boy in our own city is killed and his two companions injured while coasting out into the street. Neither the boys nor the driver were directly to blame. Chil- dren are thoughtless and must be cared for. It Is the duty and re- sponsibility of each driver to protect the young. He must have his car under instant control when in the city limits and In districts where children are numerous. These boys were care- less and thoughtless in their play, and : the driver did not have absolute con- trol of his car. as was his responsi- bility. Caution on the part of either party would have saved a young life I and needless injuries. The shock of this calamity and the loss of the young lad is one that will never be1 forgotten by those who loved him most—his parents. What a dear lesson such an accident is, but this too. is only temporary. Ac- cidents and loss of life will not stop at such comparatively small sacrifices. Neither now. nor In the near future, will such wanton destruction be done away with. Thus the responsibilty rests with earh and every one of us, whether a driver or a pedestrian, to protect other lives as our own in every man- ner and method possible. Terence Flower spent the summer at his cottage in the upper peninsula. He also took a one hundred mile boat trip down the Tahquamenon river to the falls. Jane and Martha Peters visited Yellowstone Park, Grand Canyon. Na- tional Park. Salt Lake, and attended the Texas centennial at Dallas. Miss Alice Colburn observed short- hand classes at Cleary college. The rest of the time was spent at Arbutus lake near Traverse City. School Songs, Old and New While listening to the familiar melody of the school song a person is i apt to ask himself, ‘ Is any song pret- tier than this? After hearing and : singing Varsity”, for some time we find it difficult to change old faithful i for a new one. Changes of old for new are in almost every case changes i for the better. So we are advancing by selecting a new school song. Doubt- ! less, some think that the new song lacks the pep. rhythm and beauty of the old. But are we being fair? Can we really find fault with a song we have heard only once or twice? No. A person must hear a song repeatedly 1 in order to learn to love It. Consider the fact that any song can be made more beautiful by people lifting their voices to its melody. A person’s attitude must change to ac- cept the new tune. One should put the spirit of the old in back of the new in order to rightfully compare the two. We must not draw con- clusions concerning the new song until we have heard it more. New music fits in with a new school building. Charlotte high is getting a new building so why not get a new song also. Changes from old to new are hard to make but no matter how rude the awakening the new is un- doubtedly beat after nil. With the co-operation of every student of Charlotte high school let’s make Alma Mater as well loved as Varsity has been. Be A Winner Probably all of us have noticed the slogan above the stage. A Winner Never Quits and a Quitter Never Wins. We should all bear this in mind and forget phrases as getting by. and last minute cramming.” So let us be alive and alert and make the most of our opportunities of having an education. Think of the expense and effort our parents use to send us to school. Why not give them some reason to believe that their efTorts aren’t fruitless? I- et’s not be slackers, but come out i on top, a winner. Be Boosters Advertising is one of the ch’lef I sources from which the Orange and Black is financed. Since the Orange and Black staff has spent much time and effort on this feature and likewise have the merchants, it is now the students turn. Read the advertise- ments and patronize our merchants who advertise in the paper. Your co-operation will help the community and in turn help the school. The school paper is of real value as an advertising medium. To convince the merchants of this, read the ads and trade with those who advertise. Around The Comer j Oct. 2: Mason, there (C’mon j team!

The first question which Doug” was asked was. “In what field do you Intend to seek your liveli- hood?” and he replied, “It would either be in Physical or Chemical science. Doug says he is definitely in favor of girls but Is beginning to think ; that the woman's place is in the home. He is always ready for a good time and usually has one wherever he goes. His bicycle Is his favorite possession, hobby, and method of getting around, all rolled into one. His favorite food is escalioped dishes. He can’t stand custards. His Honor, the mayor. sa'’« he is definitely against high school students smoking or drinking and applies th's especially to the girls. His extremely generous nature, coupled with his good looks have won him many freinds. Mayor Reister has many friends whom he never lets down. His ready smile, his quick wit, and his willing- ness to work and to assume responsi- bility are the qualities which have been responsible in influencing stu- dents to chose him twice president of his class and in recently electing him mayor of C.

And Sudden Death? Dense smoke rolled through halls and corridors. Horror stricken faces strained toward the figure of their leader. From gaping mouths came choking, rasping noises belonging only to that of dying men. The heavy stench seemed impenetrable. Furry bodies scurried in utter confusion rouuj tie ai.eady uproarious territory. Above the screams of suffering hu- mans came the frantic ringing of bells. The signal was given. One last hurried rush for the door. Safety! Relief!—A war? Strike! Uprising? Only the chemistry class attempting a very, very difficult experiment while Jack Klllan chased his pet coons around the room. Another case of being saved by the bell. Nutty Nuts Question: How long does it take ;i given pea. hanging on .1 green coat hanger, ten feet high on the wall with green polka dot wall paper, to bore a hole through a green pine shingle?

I'ttuc 4 ORANGE BLACK Highlights In New School Everyone seems accustomed to the noise once more—Why does one see so many upturned noses in the vicin- ity of the tar pot? The football team will have a room to itself when the new building is completed. Back of the team room is a room where the boys can store their football and basketball uniforms when not in use.—Coach Gobel will have a private room and shower. The workshop will probably be completed by the time this is pub- lished. Workmen put in the sky- lights last week. How many sports loving students are asking when the gym will be ready? Well, acording to Mr. Sverre, that will be the last part to be com- pleted. The walls in the corridors are cov- ered with glazed tile.—All along the one running north and south are open spaces where lockers will be placed.
