Whether or not we can all be stars on the athletic field, or win cups in debating contests, all can read, all can support, and many can contribute to the success of The Sage. It is the purpose of the Editors to make this magazine truly representative of the whole school, but we can do that only if the whole school is pleased to help us do it. We want each edition to be better than the one before, and to make it better, we must have material from which to choose. If you do not like the stories and poems and articles and jokes in this number, write some better ones for next time. Give The Sage the same whole-hearted support that you give to every other school activity and The Sage will be a success and will please you. Subscribe now, contribute now, and enjoy later. The story, “Brothers,” by Inna Sadler, won the prize last year that was offered the two Literary Societies of the North Carolina College for the best short story com¬ ing from any High School in the state.
