THE R E F I. E C T O R CLIFTON HIGH SCHOOL FEBRUARY 1927 UNSELFISHNESS We talked the other day with a member of the basketball team, a player who has been giv- ing the best of his ability throughout the season. After a while our conversation drifted around to a certain senior who failed to make the team. “I wish,” said this player, “that he had made the team! He’s a senior and this is his last chance— I have two years left. You know, I wish the coach would ‘bench’ me and let him play!”—And he meant it in all sincerity. It made quite a deep impression on us, and as we talk it over the impression grows deeper still. Pure, unalloyed unselfishness—how rare it is! How rare, and how splendid a feeling it gives one when one finds it in an acquaintance! So we take this opportunity to express our gratitude to him who gave unselfish demonstra- tion. lie has given us renewed confidence in human nature, and has set an example which we shall do our best to follow! An Editor. TO HERBERTSCHEFPEL Our readers will be impressed, no doubt, as they look through this issue of the Reflector, with the number of Herbert Scheffel’s contribu- tions. Now Herbie left Clifton High School about two years ago, but he still devotes part of his spare time to drawing for the Reflector. An alumnus like that deserves the respect and grati- tude of the members of the Reflector Staff and of the student body. The staff artist, to whom Herbert’s contributions have been of most as- sistance, and the rest of the student body, I am sure, wish to add their thanks to Scheffel’s al- ready large collection. Good boy, Herbie! We are always happy to print your drawings. A. E. R., Feb. ’27. EVERY STUDENT’S DUTY It is the duty of every student to preserve his new school building. He owes it to all the members of Clifton High School to do his ut- most to keep the building in the condition in which he found it. If every student would abide by this rule we should always have a new' school building. Clifton High School has an enrollment of over one thousand pupils. What a credit it is to our school, and to our principal in particular, that after a year’s usage our school is in practically the same perfect condition that it was on the first day of school a year ago last Septemher. Certainly the citizens have something to re- mark about; for it is an outstanding sign of good discipline and good will when ten hundred pupils can pass through a building, and reside in it, for ten months out of twelve, and still leave that building in its original spotless and flawless condition. Therefore, I feel absolutely safe in saying that if the pupils will only exert a few precau- tions, the students of ten years hence will still speak of Clifton High School as our “New High School.” W. Quackenbush, Feb. ’27. PAGE THREE
