ANNIVERSARY GREETINGS FROM FORMER EDITORS Earle Baillie (1907 and 1908) “ am delighted that the publication of the Cardinal continues. I congratulate you on your opportunity to be mixed up in such a piece of work. I think the doing of it well is a real service to the school ” Lawrence D. Barnard (1908) “Cardinal days are the happiest in a fellow's life, and will be the source of friendship and help in the days of work and business to come.” William W. Hopson (1909) “May extend my heartiest greetings and best wishes for the success of the tenth anniversary edition of the Cardinal.” Samuel Sewali. (1912) “May the Cardinal find its own place jn the hearts of its readers, where are recorded the memories of friends and good times passed.” Lawrence H. Cady (1910) “King Cardinal on his tenth anniversary has so much red blood flowing in his arteries that it is no wonder the ghosts of preceding volumes look anaemic.

Since the beginnings have been made, it is the girls’ own fault if these organizations die. But the girls need a gymnasium, a common place for sport and recreation. Is not the entire body of girls at East High a powerful and influential enough factor to secure this? The united efforts of over six hundred enthusiastic young people can do wonders in such a direction. Since the girls are in majority in the school, they should take an active part in school politics. Girls, support each other in class and council elections! The hoys are not the only ones who have power and executive ability. Perhaps the most crying need at East is a girls’ club, a big democratic organization, with room and interest for everyone. This club could contain many or few departments, as the conditions demand. It could become a medium for clique and class differences. It would do more than any other one thing to raise the standard of ideals and good-fellowship at East; it would go side by side with the “Y” Club. In fact, the movement begun by the “Courtesy Circle” has almost boundless possibilities. Girls, wake up! Join the new awakening! Lay the foundation for your future successes in your school activities and endeavors. R. W. AGAIN? YET? OR STILL? Y70W! We almost forgot it. This book would have been a complete Y failure without it. We just glanced at one of the five terminal members of our left hand, and noticed, entwined thereon, a piece of string. What did it mean? Why this, of course: We had intended to write a “highbrow” article, bewailing the fact that East has no “gym”—no!—nor even the plans for one! Better hurry up, Mr. Alumnus, or you will lose the chance to build one and have your esteemed appellation inscribed over its lofty entrance. V. H. K. I I 12]
