You sign up as a junior .1 ,sured that your witty remarks and novel ideas will malce you the shining light of the editorial stafifg your winning personality and high pressure technique will make you the financial genius of the business staff. Then you find yourself on the staff. You sit at a long table confronted with the elephantine task of putting words on paper. You try to write senior personals and find that your witty remarks are labeled corny by your literary col- leagues. Your novel ideas, you learn, were used in The Spy of 1908 or 1922! Or you go bravely forth to sell ads, and you stand shakily on the curb taking deep breaths before facing one of our local tycoons and trying to impress upon him the great advantage to his company of a page in the high school annual.

l M47'l0M4l fl0NOR .S' 0615 W The National Honor Society has assumed the status of an inactive chapter during the past year and has dispensed with all meetings and activities, becoming entirely an honorary organization. In the picture above the officers of the society are seen basking luxuriously in the honor of mem- bership in the widely known national group. We are sorry that we cannot pub- lish a picture of the new members, who are usually inducted into membership in March, but as we go to press in the middle of April the election has not yet been held. A change in the rules made by the committee of faculty members sponsoring the organization denies mem- bership to juniors and gives seniors the honor of belonging during only the last several weeks of the school year. When the present ofiicers of the society were elected the qualifications demanded a B average in scholarship and high Standing-McGuire, Hubley.

These six were chosen last spring by the entire vote of the faculty and membership of their class as those best exemplifying splendid leadership, worthy character, and loyal service to Galion High School. The honor of standing so high in the opinions of classmates and teachers is a great one and the students know that although the organization has been inactive this year the officers have continuedxto be worthy of the honor which is theirs. Oflicers of the group: President, Marian Crissingerg Vice-president, Joe McGuireg Secretary, Dick Klocknerg Treasurer, jack I-lubleyg Sergeant at Arms, John Vosserg Chaplain, Joanne Carmel. The faculty committee consists of: L. W. Babb, chairmang Miss Katharine Harris, W. F. Probst, Miss Geraldine Spink and Miss Arvilla Emmenegger.

Nt-H You listen bewildered as the talk turns to proportions-you try to help lay out a feature page and end with a headache and a page queerly gone askew. You watch the art editors and marvel at their skill. Timidly you ask if there's a little typing you might do. Then suddenly you're talking the lingo, too. You write feverishly, eye on the calendar, anything to get done before the fast approaching deadline! The advertising section goes to press-the covers arrive-bills pour in to the harrassed business manager's con- fusion. The wind-up now-those last pic- tures to take, and then the mumps epidemic sweeps the school and holds up everything. Finally the day arrives when the last copy is on its way to the engrav- ers-the last literary masterpiece is typed. It's finished! But rest assured you'll be writing senior personals, balancing the budget, selling ads, selling Spys, measur- ing, pasting, counting words in night- mares for countless months. And the stench of rubber cement will be with you always when you think of The Spy. .l.
