wlvinsvur . . .Problems in a Democracy Ever stop to think that our school life is democracy itself? The entire school organization is based on democratic principles. And, of course, the small democracy has many problems to solve. There are problems of school wide in scope, such as how the income of the school is to be spent. Even the students have a little to say about this situation. A student representative board has been organized. This body is called the Coordinat- ing Board. Each roll has a representative present at the meetings. The other part of the board is composed of the representative members of the faculty. In this way both teachers and students are able to keep a fair outlook on their own interests. Then there are the problems of individual students. What subjects should I take next semes- ter? What are the requirements for this or that course in college? Should I go to college? Where may I get a job on Saturdays and during vaca- tion? The student when in a flounder may turn to the advice of his roll room teachers or any other member of the faculty. If the pupil does not find satisfaction there he may go to the Boys' or Girls' adviser, as the case may be, for further advice or information. And so in school life one finds a striking example of cooperation. Each person has a chance to help the other. Both the teachers and students have duties as well as privileges. Cleveland is a small democracy functioning in a democracy, turning out better men and women for a democratic world of tomorrow by showing how problems may be solved by cooperation. Eleven

When those men 7 7 leaders in school, who did everything, were prom- inent and well known. In the grim business of war these trivialities are forgotten. Cleveland's honor men are those who today are in service somewhere in the world, wearing the uniform of Uncle Sam's armed forces, standing under the banner of the United States of America. Cleveland points with bursting pride to these men and women who have gone from her doors to take a vital part in this nation effort toward victory. Some even now, though the war is scarce begun, have given their lives on battlefields and on the seas. Ten left-they are men now-they made no great furore, shouted no loud claims, made no fine boasts. They said goodbye and l'll see you again and went off with millions like themselves to do their bits. There is little we can say, little we can do to show our esteem and respect for what may not seem an act of great bravery-but Cleveland, all her past, present and future sons and daugh- ters, stands proudly behind her Honor Men. That this government, by the people, of the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth.

building for . . in a Democracy Building material for the future America, we are learning to care for our physical as well as mental selves. The health classes for boys and girls, under the direction of Miss Whittaker and Mr. Mc- Larney instruct students in cause and care of diseases, effect of stimulants on the body, and general courses in sex relationships. ' The Red Cross course, initiated this year, is a required part of the health class, but before it was instituted thirty-eight pupils and thirteen teachers, on their own time became accredited First Aiders. Miss Waller and Mr. Maginnis have their boys' and girls' gym classes, attended semi-weekly to encourage outdoor activities, indoor exercises, and teach good sportsmanship. Twelve As much concerned with out health as we are, are Dr. Parks and Miss Elkholm, nurse. They give a health test to entering freshmen and a yearly check-up to the remainder of the students, as well as looking them over after prolonged absences. Mr. Imus, to whom all excuses come, is interested in the state of our health. He and Miss V aron keep a daily record of attendance. ln the all-city attendance contest, Cleveland the first three months of this year finished in third, fourth, and seventh places. Thus, Cleveland helps you take upon your- self the burden of youth health that you may be a better citizen, and enjoying your pursuit of life, liberty, and happiness.
