THE MODULUS Paper Wads AT last the longed for and greatly anticipated Christmas vacation has arrived. We push lessons back in our minds just as we stuff our books into the recesses of our lockers and close them with a delighted sigh. Christmas has beckoned us on from its distant heights for so long that we can hardly believe it actually has arrived. But it has surely and steadily crept upon us, and we now are anticipating it just as keenly as the Christian world has anticipated it each year for two thousand years. On that first Christmas Eve, the shepherds left their flocks on the hillside and hurried to the manger where the Holy Child lay. Gradually and surely time sped on — and it was not so long ago that diminutive lassies and quaint little gentlemen were hurrying home from their fashionable schools in stage coaches in order to be with loved ones during this special season. And even today — the factories cease, men and women hurry home from college — the courts pause in their judgments — and the whole world pays its tribute to the same Little Babe that stirred the shepherds so greatly on that first Chrismas. And the same spirit that came to the world that night makes life worth living today. If there is anyone who has lost the thrill of the ap- preciation of a loving kindness — the gratitude of a remembrance, however small — or the spirit of giving— this season of Yuletide joy is lost ori him. Christmas will soon be here and past. School will soon resume again and we will all returr with bigger and better resolves for the new year THIS issue of the Modulus initiates a new ers in journalism of the Huntington Higl School. This year we have endeavored to wavei from the set rule of high school annuals and tc present to the students of Huntington Higl School a publication that will not only include the regulation type of content found in annuals bu1 also the minor events and activities of the car riculum which we all wish to remember. W( feel that by so doing we are giving the student; the distinct advantage of an annual and maga zine publication. Thus the completed book wil not be one which can be leafed through once anc then very advantageously relegated to the attics but one of timely interest now as well as year: to come. The write-up and pictures of the event; are thus appearing while they are yet an evem of the present rather than one for which we mus ' search the cobwebs of our memory in order t( remember. We are placing the results of our effoi ' ts be fore you. All we can say is — we hope you like it 3Jtt iEptttortam GRIEVED faces and saddened hearts among the portals of Hunt- ington High School on the morning of October 31, marked the silent tribute paid to one of their number, Doris Hollet. To us who knew Doris, her willing service and companionship is a mem- ory time and death cannot erase. Doris was born to Mr. and Mrs. R. H. Hollet on April 30, 1914, in Hunt- ington. She attended Riley School for Doris Hollet eight years and entered her Junior yeai in High School this fall- She is sur- vived by her father and mother anc one younger sister. Her death occurred only a few hours after she had helped entertair her class at a Hallowe ' en party and i week before she was to take part in the Bars and Stripes Revue. And with these loving thoughts oi her comradeship, we dedicate this space in our Modulus to her memory. Page Two Pecemher, I93t
