' Saint, the name given to sev- eral' saints 1and martyrs of the Christain Church, of whom the most celebrated are two martyrs whose festivals 'fall on February 14. 'One was a priest at Rome and the-other a bishop in Umbria. The most reliable accounts show that 'both lived in. the third century and died on the same day. The traditional dnniversary of their death.- February 14, has become known as Saint Valentine's Day, and has long been observed as a lovers' festival. 'Several other explanations are given for the familiar custom of sending love tokens, cards of greeting, to one's favorites, and for the various social activities ggnngcted with this day. Some 'rellglQQ1,houses on the continent encouraged their members to choose salute as valentines. Great Britain has ceased to celebrate Saint Valsntine's Day, but the sending of sentimental valentines and gifts of flowers 'and candy, on February 14, is still common in America. ' Valentines of today are pro- 'duced on an elaborate scale. This was surely- in evidence in Eaton School on February 14. Each fel- low and girl as well appeared to be expressing his affection for someone in some way or other. For the most part, valentines were of a commendable, pretty, and sweet nature but, of course, there were those who received the tradition- al ugly, comical, and Jocular i In Mrs. Reynold's room the following members of the Mothers' Club met Wednesday, February 14, for e Valentine Party.

H.M.Spencer's books--with bus- iness papers--are to be kept by this year's class. This set is based on a retail store and le especially practical and inter- eating. It consists of a combined cash ,journal, general ledger, business- transaotion sheets, checkbook 4 Nstatlonery, ruled paper for end of month statements, and files-hr accounts rece1vable,accounts pay- ,ab1e, out-going materials, re- ceipts, cash register papers, ln- ,vo1ces, statements, vouchers, and miscellaneous items. Practice sets are so designed that they test the students' ab- ility to work out a long proJect under buslnessllke conditions. They provide a situation in which he may demonstrate his ability to do neat and accurate work. They afford an opportunity for eval- ugtlng the students' understand- ing of the work he is to do.

Defeating the 'husky Royertom Redbirds, the Norse took a giant stride along the road to recogni- tlon among the county teams. The Norse avenged an earlier defeat by trimming Hoyerton 50 to 25. Ha1l's lads had -previously been defeated ln their o enln ame of the year on the Royerton floor. T The red and black team Jumped into the lead with the opening of play to have things going their way, 7 to 4 at the end of -the first quarter. Dlsapprovlng of this, Coach Ha11's campaigners, sharp as a tack and hot as a pistol, Jumped into the lead in the second quarter leaving Royer- ton in a daze, to gain a score of 17 to 8 at the half. The Redblrd team was never to gain the lead thereafter. The purple and gold team kept possession of the ball to protect lts, slender margin during the final period of play. The visiting crew wa6'Eont1nually on the alert but was unable to steal the ball and break through the Norsemen's defense. 1 Huffman turned in a beautiful Job against ,Bullock, Royerton's noted tall pivot man, and held him to 5 markers. Eaton was unfortunate ln hav- ing two of its crew withdrawn from the game when they were in- jured. Roberts sustained an 1nJured knee in the second quar- ter which barred him permanently from the game. Huffman acquired a sprained ankle in the third quar- returned in the final the exc1z1ng event! ter but stage of Riebeling was high scorer for the Norse with 10 points while Mcklnley collected 7 points for the losers.

The Bulldogs staged .a good flrst quarter rally with the score breaking even at 7 all at the end of the first 8 minute- perlod. But quletlng the barks of the Bulldogs, the Norsemen began to slowly break away and have things their way at the half 17 to 10. with s 31 to 18 third quarter score, the Norsemen 'eked out' with a 40 to 24 triumph to finish up things. Riebeling, Huffman and Prewett were the main scorers for the victors with 12, 10 and 8 points respectively while Johnson took credit for B of his team's 23 points. Crashing through with another victory, the Eaton seconds came out on top 27 to 14.
