THE ENFIELD ECHO 21 ADVICE- TO UNDERGRADUATES. By William Shea Teachers, Friends, and Undergraduates: We, the Senior class, hav- ing reached the pinnacle of our High School career, and just having time to notice you, find that you are alarmingly deficient in many respects. Therefore I am here, Undergraduates, to advise you of these deficiencies, which you must correct. Freshmen: You should not wear straw hats, sneakers or boy scout uniforms to school. They are useless and out of style. We know you possess them, so therefore keep such articles out of sight. Secondly: You should have at this time an appreciation and love for art in the forms in which it exists in this school. Finding ourselves overburdened in Room 1 with works of art, we generously offered them to you, and you took them. Sometime you must show your appreciation of our gifts so that we may know how they have impressed you. Moreover, Freshmen, at this time we find many of you have far too easy daily tasks. Owing to new regulations about dropping subjects failed, some of you are reduced to half.a class daily. This never hap- pened to us and we do not feel it is fitting that you should have such mem- bers in your class. Again, young Freshmen, we must advise you against possessing so much community spirit in your civics meetings. Please re- member that unfortunately the walls of our school are not sound-proof as you seem to think; that you are supposed to make yourselves heard, but not by shouting at the top of your voices. Sophomores: You are a patriotic class, but patriotic in the wrong way. When rivalry between two rooms arises do not cause a riot, or some- thing of like character, by trying to show how superior you are to vour classmates. Do not quarrel over Red Cross quotas as there is only one way to achieve distinction in that respect. Do not be so noisy, Sophomores, when passing out after school. You alone of all the four classes in this school must have a complicated system of passing out of your room in order that the furniture may not be broken and the whole school upset. Why must you cause your teacher so much trouble by forcing her to devise such a system ? Let us hope that at least you will suppress this hilarity on entering again next fall. Sophomores: You seem to be equal to the Freshmen in being a nuisance to your teachers in regard to study. The few times in past years that the Senior class attended study hall they went to Room 1. But this year it has been changed to Room II. The reason for this is apparent. In order to save the transferring of Room II bodily to another room the study hall was moved. Now the sophomores stay in their seats and study hall comes to them. This, however, has its advantages as the two platoon system of passing out is deferred another hour, and the other classes can pass without being disturbed by our hilarious sophomores. Juniors: You who next year must take our place as fathers of the
