THE RIPPLE Often one hears someone complain about the outrageously high price we charge for our yearbook. These people probably do not understand the cost of producing this book. I shall try to ex- plain some of these facts. To begin with, the engraving bill, as compared with that of several years ago, is about five times what it was then. At that time the price of the Ripple was 50 cents. Now it is 31.50. These figures compare somewhat favor- ably, but now comes the sad cpavrt. The cost of getting our yearbook printed has risen to about six times that of the previously mentioned date. This may sound terrible, but is it? Is the printer a robber? NO! He is doing the very thing that other businessmen are doing the world over, if he can get the business at his price, is he to be con- demned? Next, someone remarks, What about the advertisements? It is no pleasant job -to go out after ads. The people who give us these ads do just thatg they give us the money. Several years ago ads amounted to nearly 330000. The best we have done recently is 83250.00 It is hard to increase the sale of ads in a yearbook. Anyone realizes that a mer- chant will not sell many more goods just because he puts an ad in the Ripple. No matter how grateful we may be, there is not much we can do about that. In order to make ends meet we have had to cuft some things out of our Ripple this year. By doing this we hope to come out even. David R. Tibbetts '48 STUDENT GOVERNMENT What is Student Government? Why have so many schools tried to estab- lish this form of government? Student Government is exactly what is stated-government of the school by the students. It means that we, the students, shall participate in the mak- ing and maintaining of the l-aws. And also that we shall be a part of the school and such a part of it that we could not fail' to love itg that we shall work not for individual merit, but to raise the standard of our school to even a higher degree than it stands for now. Often has it been said that a school run by School Government can easily be detected the minute that one enters the s-chool. There is a quiet orderliness, a cheerful and 'business- like atmosphere that can not be ignored. Each year, more and more schools, large and small, are estab- lishing Student Councils. They have realized the great efficiency and value of this new form of government. What a grand feeling it is to know that the student body 'in our school can successfully conduct a Student Government. Ioan Perry '50
