Y., as second class mail mailer EDITORIALS This year the Senior Class has turned aside from the usual course of events and in place of the Senior Oracle, has published a year book, called The Red and Green. Red and Green are Fulton High Sehool's colors and they stand for Fulton High. Likewise, the Year Book THE YEAR stands for Fulton High and endeavors to put, in clear and BOOK concise statements, the happenings of the past year in school life. The many pictures will, in future years, recall to memory the happy days at dear old High School. The many interesting articles con- cerning classmates, teachers, athletics and social activities will bring back the good times--the best times of our lives. The citizens of Fulton will enjoy the book for surely everyone is interested in the school. The book will be a suc- cess only if the students, faculty and citizens purchase it. The book was put out at a tremendous expense, and many, saying that expense should be cut down during the VVar, have severely criticised us. Yet the Class feels that the school work is not complete without some literary endeavor. Then, why not a good one? The Senior Class wishes that next year's class will undertake a year book, and put out one, better and larger than the one which the 1918 Class edited. The Class of '18 has started the stone-a-rollin, so to speak, and future classes must keep it moving.

FULTON HIGI-I SCHOOL YEAR BOOK 19 It may seem presumptuous for the editors, who have never had any ex- perience in running a school, to endeavor to advise the Board of Education as to how tl1e schedule of the Senior Class Entertainments should be arranged. lNe will not deny nor affirm the truth of such an opinion, but THE SENIOR the presumption of our suggestions may possibly be excused PLAY by a consideration of the fact that they are made only for the best interest of both the school and the students. For years it has been the custom to hold the Prize Speaking Contest and Class Play during the month of June. The adequate preparation for these events necessitates tremendous work on the part of the participants and the results that follow are very detrimental. Much time that should be used in re- view of school work is exhausted by the Play and Prize Speaking The student has to study during the small hours of the night, returns to school tired out and utterly incapable of concentrated study, and his chances of pass- ing the Regents are greatly endangered. In view of this fact, we, the editors, expressing popular opinion, and hav- ing experienced the aforesaid evils, earnestly advise that the Class Play be staged in the early part of the year. At this season affairs and time would not be so pressing and the Senior could do greater justice to both Play and school work. 1-F. H. S.-- Early last fall President Wilson issued a proclamation to the school chil- dren of the United States, asking them to form an organization to be known as the Junior Red Cross. The pupils in the Fulton school responded eagerly and enthusiastically. Soon every pupil in the public schools was JUNIOR RED enrolled as a member. The schools became Red Cross auxil- CROSS iaries, and entered upon their work of aiding the senior branch of the American Red Cross in any way possible. Since then much Work has been accomplished. Pupils in the seventh and eighth grades devote time from their hand work classes, while the High School pupils sew each afternoon at the close of school, under the supervision of the various teachers. Miss Marion Dickerman represents the Senior Red Cross in the organization. Miss Nancy Cook purchases and distributes the supplies, and Miss Adelaide Lowerre supervises the work in the High School. u The children chose the making of layettes as the major part of their activities. By the last of June eighty complete outfits will be ready for ship- ment to the orphans of France and Belgium. Many pupils learned to knit and have made sweaters, wristlets and scarfs which have been used in outfitting the men as they have left Fulton for camp. The High School alone has made and turned over to the Red Cross twenty sweaters. Mention might also be made of the boys who learned to knit and who have been making wash cloths for each layette. The High School boys have done excellent work in making picture puz- zles. Large, gaily colored pictures were pasted upon cardboard, cut into odd- shaped pieces and placed in large manilla envelopes on which were written the names of the puzzles and the number of pieces. These puzzles are used to entertain the convalescents in the hospitals of France. Under the supervision of Mr. Lawton, the boys in the manual training department have made fifty-four large packing boxes for use by the local Red Cross in sending supplies abroad.
