' The fame of Washington stands apart from every other in history shining with s truer lustro and a more benignant glory. with us 'his memory remains a national property, where all sympathies throughout our widely extended diversified empire meet in unlslon.

Because of the great contrast in Washington and Lincoln, we know ,that neither handicaps nor favors lcompletely WmakeW a DGPSOH- 2Llncoln was poor and suffered imany defects, but he finally ibecame victorious, winning favor with all classes of people. Un- like Lincoln, Washington was aristocratic and well-educated the 'easy wayW, but he understood -the common man, too. With examples before us, like the experiences of these two great men, we should take advant- age of all opportunities tobetter ourselves and be thankful that the way is less difficult for us. When wethink of the difficulty Lincoln had in educating himself, never again should we let one piece 'of knowledge pass without grasping at least a part of it. ,Before we complain about the inconveniences of our education, '1et's think how insignificant they are as compared with Lincoln's. ' Also, a good education is a necessity for our complex society of today. In order to maintain the high civilization of our country, our education will have to be high and more universal. Most important of aD, a democracy cannot kng endure without a well- informed public, and the public will not be wellbinformed without education. Even the right man- ipulation of our many complex machines requires s good educa- tion. So, to become -better American citizens and to enjoy happier and fuller lives, may we strive on for the best education possible. . ..... .... Be able to use minutes.

Egfolf ,QCHDDL DRY 0v HWY Monday, January E2 e students of E.H.S. are running over with vim, vigor and vitality after- that wonderful game with Royerton Friday night. Mrs. Gregory was dumbfounded the ,fifth period when Karl Dix flipped a coin Cfifty oentslwhile taking a physics test to decide which answer to put down. ---- Tut Tut, Karl you mean you' would have us believe that a fifty cent piece knows more than youil? I see Roberts and Huffman lim- ping around after that baskethml struggle Friday night. Sure hope they get well in a hurry. After about the fourth bell Mr. Ross couldn't decide which bell to call his assembly cn. Finally he stated, 'After the tenth bell, we'll take up schoo1.' Doesn't it get aggravating' fi open those windows all the time, Mr. Ross? I think I'd give up all hopes of ever trying to cool the assembly off--especially when gremlins such as Mr. Hall sneak up from room 19 and close them whenayour back is turned!!! Tuesda , Januar 30 The Senlor fFla'y charactere are working very hard on their last minute rehereals. The Chorus, Girls made up part of the program for the P.T.A.maW- ing last night.

I think the student body or at least the Jr. Glass should take up a collection and buy some of Chose poor Jr. boys some typ- ing paper. When five senior boys gat,!.alr' that Norms Fisher would be de- tained from coming to take her part in the play because the roads were drifted, they volun- teered to take the risk cfgettlng stuck, lng the snow drift to go after her.
