The G. H. S. has a record that no other school in the county can equal. In the six years that we have engaged in Inter- School Debates, we have won 12 out of 14. The question selected for debate this year was. Resolved, 'tThat the United States should enter the League of Nations? The debates were held on Friday evening, Mar. 27. Our negative team consisting of Vera Shull, Albert Sindlinger and Paul XVilliams, alter- nate, met Strasburg at Strasburg, where they received the votes of all three judges. The affirmative team consisting of Esther Ulrich, Ray Peter and Edith Schreiner, al- ternate, met Dundee's team at Gnadenhutten and likewise received the votes of all the judges. T After the returns were in from the schools of the county, the Gnadenhutten teams Were found to bc the County Champions. Tuscarawas and Mineral City also Won both of their debates but did not get the un- animous decision of the judges. Our debaters were presented a beautiful Silver Loving Cup by the Tuscarawas County liar Association. They were honor guests at a banquet given at New Philadelphia by the Association. -john R. Taylor

THE GOAL I hirty-two MEDITATION I am sitting by my window in meditation, as the darkness of night melts into the dawn of another perfect day, content to occupy my mind in dreams as the activities of tl1e day have not yet begun. As I look out of my window, I behold tiny ribbons of light arising from the eastern horizon. These ribbons shed more light as they rise higher and become broader. Then I realize that this is a wonder- ful sunrise. My mind was wandering back to the clouds of yesterday, when I thought the world grey, now realizing it is gold. This sunrise is dif- ferent from the suiirises of the past. This is the beginning of a perfect day, in which we may linish our tasks of yesterday and in which we may be thankful for the gifts of life, and the opportunity of service. Then suddenly I thought of bright dreams, and fond hopes that are to be blotted out by trouble and misfortune. Again as I look out the window. I realize the insignificance of man and his works. The seasons come and go in their order, for the wisdom of man cannot control themg neither can the greatest scientist or the most learned philosophers change the course of any member of the solar system. At least I realize how wondrous are thy works, Oh, God! -Mary IXI. Keffer lllll THE MOTION PICTURES AT SCHOOL Gnadenhutten lligh School has tried a 116W plan to keep the young people at home in the evenings and to induce them to take a g1'e21'CSf interest in their studies. For this purpose we started having moving pictures on Saturday nights. Of course, at first there were some Wl1O did not fall in line with the idea, but to-day the greater portion of the town attend. VVhy? Because only the best shows are given and they are of the type which are absolutely clean and which no one need be afraid to see. Among some of the star attractions which have been shown are 'fThe Covered W3gO11,,, 'fAbraham Lincoln, and 'fThe Sea Hawk. iThese pictures are quite helpful in many ways. First-They are educationalg for the news reels keep the students in touch with the events and happenings of the world. This also tends to get the students to read the newspapers. Seconds-The characters build up the moral standards of the students. The shows given here are not of the shoot 'em upn variety. but are of the lovable type, which the students thoroly enjoy. Third-It helps the student physically, for when a person sees a good comedy it makes him laugh until it cures all his ills for months to come. Nothing will help drive the blues away like a good comedy. Fouth-It helps the students financially. The prices of movies given here are within reach of all Qtifteen centsj while at theaters in nearby towns prices range as high as fifty cents. It is a fact the students do not attend the shows in nearby towns as regularly as they formerly did. The students are saving money. The school wishes to thank the citizens who have been attending and hope they will continue their patronage. -John Paul Williains F I

A T H L The Athletic Activities of the G. H. S. were held very much in check during the past sea- son on account of an epidemic of the mumps, which started early in the season and lasted until its close. The boys, however, were able to iinish their schedule but were unable to enter the tournament which was held at Sugarcreek, February 27-28. The girls were compelled to cancel one game with Sugar- creek. The girls' next year team will lose one play- er, while the boys will lose four. This will leave a splendid opportunity for several stu- dents who are willing to work. On Tuesday, April 21, at the Athletic Ban- quet, Captains were elected for next Season's teams. Miss Edith Schreiner was chosen Captain of the girls' team and the boys' squad gave Paul Schreiner that honor. E T I Dec. CS Girls' Basketball Squad lfdith Schreiner.
