Wars, inventions, births, deaths, calamities, successes, failures, attempts, struggles for legislative measures, op- pressions, and disagreements between men of different nations, or the same nation, state, community or city are things that seem unforgettable and consequently are re- corded in books of history which the younger generations must spend endless hours studying in order to grasp the significance of the events in the days of the forefathers. Professors of history work clay after day, year after year, in research work trying to find out the if's, when's and why's of it all. And why? To record in books, which obviously grow bigger and bigger at each publication, and which require more time and effort on the part of the history pupils to master. Not at all. The general public believes, and rightly, that history repeats itself. If time and effort is spent finding the causes of difficulties ancl strife of any kind, it may be possible that some student interested in solving problems for the betterment of the life of the world in general, may find a way to avoid this disaster in the future. But there is one item that constantly arises in a history and it is safe to say that it occupies about one-third of the entire contents-war and all its horrors. ls there no solution? Wars seem to have existed since the crea- tion of the universe. It seems that probing into the past has not brought to light a way to wipe it from the face of the earth. Other methods must be considered. What they are no one knows, yet we all have our suggestions. Can't somebody think of a way to settle disputes peace- ably and end war for all time. The person who does will not only be an international hero but the idol of history students. IF I TOLD YOU THAT . . . Edward Butler has turnecl over a new leaf and is go- ing to study in bookkeeping. lVlaza has a crush on Fabian. Peggy is going to be an opera singer. Clarence Johnson is a woman-hater. J. B. Cabell isn't valedictorian. John Maguire got to school all in one piece on time two days in a row ancl Russell Mattsfeldt wasn't absent. Pat, Kathleen, Leona, Hazel and Emma passed their I 40. Helen lVlclVlillan dicln't skip school this year. Nadine Peterson didn't have any work to do during her two study halls first and second periods. Beverley came to school a whole week without missing even one hour. WOULD YOU BE SURPRISED? FLASH The Workers of the World fpart-time kids to you, had their annual get-to-gether in the form of a picnic on Wednesday, May IO, at the Porcupine, perennial picnic ground of all ages. It was a joy to see these future busi- ness men and women-shoe salesmen and what have you--forgetting the cares of the workaday world in the pleasure of frolicking in the great outdoors. The most enjoyable part of the whole affair, of course, was the food, of which there was an ample supply. Working peo- ple get hungry!

THE SCOTTY, GLASGOW, MONTANA Page INTRODUCING 1 Here's another issue of the Scotty coming at you, you lucky people! This is a dilly of an issue, too, if we do say so. Not that we're bragging. ln it we have features to interest young and old, those who just look at the pictures and read the jokes, and for those who really read the contents herein. For those rare individuals who really read, we recom- mend the article on the lVl. E. A. convention here next October. This is on page 6. The sports-minded, by a mere twick of the wrist and a flick of the thumb, may come upon their section beginning on page 28. This is an account of all the games we watched last winter while gnawing out scant fingernails down to mere nothingness. Other sports follow, including spring football fhave you noticed all the black eyes and mangled faces?l. Then there are pages devoted to G. A. A., the Pep Club and the C-Club. For those who just look at the pictures we suggest page 33, where you'll find pictures of the physi- cal education classes in their annual dance review. Or, if you are interested in this year's crop of seniors, you'll find pictures of the famous creatures, together with other material, on pages I6 to 23. On page I5 we give you a publicity write-up. This is an account of the goings- on of the publicity staff, complete with a picture of the group, the people who write the material for the Round- up. Vocations reviews extend from pages 8 to l4. ln that write-up you'll find out all about the inner workings of the shop and other departments of our school dedi- cated to telling us how to be what we're gonna be when we get big. lt seems we have an aspiring playwright in our midst. Think of it! Right here among us! Elsie Funk, a senior, has written a one-act play of such merit that we are pub- lishing it on page 54. The title of this work is The Awakening. lt was written as an English assignment and Mr. l-lunton thought it should be given to posterity, so here it is. Other features published 'herein are Town Topics, a column devoted to things-about-town, an account of the hobbies of several of the more versatile students, and more pictures! Especially for those who just look at the nice pictures and read the big print, there are pictures of the school clubs, shots of the classrooms full of busy youngsters getting book-larnin', and a page of candids guaranteed to bring many a blush to many a cheek and many hearty guffaws! Then there are the pictures of the seniors when they were small and cuddly. All through the magazine, from cover to cover, we have humor features for you who buy it just for the laughs. You'll just laff and laff-laff -we 'hopel Anyhoo, dear reader, you had better like it, because it has caused us a hectic month or two and many and many a sleepless night. Worra, worrs.

THE SCOTTY. GLASGOW, MONTANA P8805 Board of Education, Glasgow Public Schools To these men who so efficiently carry the responsibilities of the administration of our school system, the staff respectfully dedicates this issue of the Scotty. Seated, left to right, they are: Elmer Hall, President, Oral R. McCleery Roland Alger A B Friedlund Clerkg Mark Watson, Sam H. Orvis, and R. L. Irle, Superintendent. Glasgow Schools Are Fortunate When Scotty made the first appearance three years ago, Superintendent lrle wrote, upon the introduction of the book, that he hoped it would serve as an outlet for student talent and to cement school friendships and loyalty. He also expressed what communities and schools sometimes fail to realize, that we owe our thanks to the Board of Education of the Glasgow High School who make it possible for us to have so many extra-curricular activities and who are not Scotch in the matter of education. This group of men work quietly and unobtrusively, meeting once or twice a month during the year, solving problems of policy and administration that probably would be unsolvable to most of us. They keep the school tied to the community in a direct way, and their meetings are many times long and tiresomeg yet they receive no financial compensation and very often little recognition. They are often forced to say No, even at the risk of being mis- understood by the pupils, teachers and the community. While this is a position of honor, demanding the respect and faith of the community, it demands many character qualities to shoulder the responsibili- ties involved in making decisions on school policy and in estimating the financial resources of the community and stayng within them and yet main- taining a good school. To these men who work with lVlr. lrle and show, like him, qualities of efficiency, patience and tolerance in school administration, the Scotty wishes to say that we believe it is only because of your outstandingly wise adminis- tration that Glasgow is able to have such a finely balanced school system.
