Alumni have written that they are very anxious to hear about all the inter- esting events going on at Hastern. Make this year one that will be full of read- able happenings. Sometimes school life gets dull and monotonous, but keep up the spirit this year so that there will be something worth writing to the Alumni about. From an Alumnus of 1914: “The only thing which one can bring away from a school is good preparation. I am glad for the splendid preparation I received at Eastern. It certainly has been a help. Eastern is a great school and gives a fine foundation to all who care to work for it. That is the thing to be proud of and to judge a school by, without summing up school activities.” WHAT THE CLASS OF ’14 ARE DOING.

a few ex- will com- As we have received but changes so far this year, we ment upon some of those w yhich were not mentioned last year. Balance Sheet; Washington, D. Cx Your April issue has a witty story en- titled, “The Mere Chant of Venus.” The Gleam, St. Paul, Minn.: The June number of your paper has an artistic cover design. The Widow, Ithaca, New York: In the Drack Number of your paper the adver- ng is tactfully managed. Gold and Blue, Salt Lake City, Utah: Your class reports are interesting and a novel feature in high school papers. Lawrence High School Bulletin, Law- rence, Massachusetts : ‘The June issue of your paper has a very clever article in “he Last Will and Testament,” of the senior class. Do you not think that you could have improved the appearance of the paper by haying a more appropriate cover design for June? The Vindex, Elmira, New York; The story, “The Connecting Link” in your last issue is unique, in that it seems nat- ural. The Habit, Salina, Kansas: Your paper has a good plan for advertising itself, in distributing a pamphlet explaining the paper before soliciting subscriptions. Perhaps other schools might profit by this same plan. Floral Decorations Geo. Ge Choice Cut Flowers Shatter Phone 2416 Main 900 Fourteenth Street Northwest
