TRUE BLUE PRINTING PLANT. Por years past Hudson High school has taken all of her publishing material to the local printing shop or sent it out of the city. Why not add a moderately sized printing equipment to the school?' If this were done, the efficiency of the school would be greatly increased. The school could print a weekly or bi-weekly paper without being so largely dependent upon the advei tisements of the town merchants to pay the expense of such a paper. Posters, tickets for games, etc., could be printed in the school, saving the cost of sending the material to an outside print shop. Not cnly would expense be eliminated but a new industrial study would be add- ed to the curriculum. Wouldn’t such equipment arouse interp f ;n better composition work, in a more critical study of the pamphlet, newspaper, magazine and published book ? Hudson High School has a fine building. Better equipment will make a more efficient school. HUDSON HIGH SCHOOL FIRST. Hudson High School should be first in the minds of its students. Ma- ny schools complain that their great weakness is lack of school pride in their organizations and in their teams, unless they are winning teams. This year in Hudson High there has been no such feeling and we can proud ly boast of the fact. We have had an exceedingly goed year in athletics i or two reasons. The teams have been unusually successful in their num- poi't £ames and the student body has given them splendid sup- Hudson High School may well be proud of her year’s work in school activities. 23

Jane La Barge in United States History Class: “A specified duty is one on specified articles—an ad valorem duty is one on wool.” The time has come to write my test, I pray that I may do my best, But should I get a measly “P” Please don’t put the blame on me I’m a Freshman.

TRUE BLUE BASKET BALL This year Hudson High School has had one of the best basket ball teams that ever represented the school. Fifteen men were chosen from the talent of the school. From these fifteen, two teams were chosen to represent the school in contests with other cities. The White team select- ed Stanley Beggs for its captain and the Blue team was guided by Lyman Olson. We count in our wins, victories over some of the most formidable teams that ever appeared on a basket-ball court. New Richmond, our foremost rival was downed on the Hudson floor. Right here, Hudson was in its prime. Before this, the team had twice defeated Mencmcnie, the winner of the tournament, and Chippewa Falls by scores decisive enough to prove our superiority over them. We pride ourselves cn the fact that we defeated the rangy Faribault five, who ' made a great impression cn fans at the Minnesota state ccntest for High schools. River Falls also, was defeated. The team did not lose a game cn its home floor, and until the tournamenc, New Richmond was the cnly 24
