' VIEWPOINT OF A STUDENT Have you ever stirred the embers in the fireplace in the evening, placed new wood on the irons, and let.yourself drift a- mong the future scenes portrayed through flames and smoke? . How long before Junior High will need a new and larger coat? One with more pockets too? Would it not be more economical just to get two new outfits one on the north side and the other on the south side of the school pop ulation dividing line, but where is the dividing line? At present it is Walnut Street. The present Ott site is an approximate cen- ter for the north Junior High. But what about these poc- kets? Well there should be two pockets in each coat for Domestic Science, two for General Science pockets' for Art, Music, A Gym- nasium, a cafeteria, an auditor- ium, and one for adequate play- grounds. and at regular Junior High Library. V Why a new suit? What about our present Junior High? It has forty-five modern rooms! No, on- ly thirty-one modern roomsg an auditorium--just one-third of an auditoriumg playground--only the street. Ai Gymnasium--none. A cafeteria--no just an unsuitable afterthought, why, it is so small that several hundred have to eat lunch in the auditorium everyday. What is theimaximum number hand- led by a Junior High, from' the standpoint of economy? A good guess would place it at say fif- FOR INDEPENDENCE FROM THE IN THE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL teen hundred, you ask why? Well more than that number handled by a Junior High, allows so little opportunity for student leader- ship, for competitive dramatics and athletics. This number of students will furnish the requir ed number of special pupils for an orchestra, a band, art, dom- estic Science, and Industrial classes. An auditorium of this proportion will seat any commun- ity activityg a gymnasium in such a building could be used each hour of the school day. -4 A course of study for such an institution could be broaden- ed to meet the community needs. Larger playgrounds would be an aid to physical and social devel opment while the location of the buildings away from the busy in- dustrial center of the city would provide the safest insur- ance against accidents caused by , rapid traffic on crowded streets -4 The present- senior pupils and some of those in Junior High will perhaps have as one of their first propositions as vot- ers, the presention of a bond is sue for such a purpose. Ifi you have felt a need for convenience the Junior High School will af- ford, then it will be your great pleasure to help those who come after you to have bettcr.advant- ages than you have had, for they will have to meet the competit- ion in business your experiences have already taught you.

' A 4 1 ' ' If :' : 'fs Y' i '4 ' A ' 4 Mr. WGordon tWesner, as Aa teacher of history, came to Jun4 ior fHigh' School in September 1928, and finding school a bit dull for the pupils, the William Penn club was organized in his home 'room, 'later to expand to all the classes of the school. The editing and.printing of the school paper, WThe Echo,u was the next step in the line of pro- gress, and what a source of hap- py anticipation. Work, play and education oombined in one more activity under his guidance. If Mr, Wesner had done no more than to supervise the cre- ating and progression of our school paper, WThe Echo,W it would have been a colossal under- taking but he did not stop hereg he supervised the selecting and purchasing of a new automatic ,interesting assembly programs a N ,f . mimeograph' so that more papers? could be printedg the circula- tion jumped from '4OO Ato 7005 then he conceived the ideal of assembling them all into an ana nual,' the result! of which you see. It has been said of him that in one teaching year his ex- tra-curricular activities almost doubled the amount he must do in his class room. Besides this he has prepared the way for many gifts to Junior High School as well as the preparation of many The growth, Kand may we say magnitudel of the Echo would not have been achieved had it not been for the seemingly untiring efforts of such a willing worker. These and many other happy events will long be linked with Athe name of Mr. Gordon Wesner. igzii A N f X p X -122 fl Q ..g-Q, f f NX in E 'E 'V'E'g5s 5 IVAZEZI ,dum . 17 J 7 IJ JJ HW mb AMMHWWH-nm wtf :hit f WHy5imkZlM jy fy ff 'WJ Fl' X , II 3 Il 1' 7 1 When the 'EchoW was estab- lished in l928, the staff pledg- ed itself to do all in its power to make each copy better, than the last. Before the first issue was printed, the entire school was wondering what nThe Echon was to be since notices of its coming had appeared in each home room. The paper met with general ap- provalg between four hundred and six hundred copies of each issue were sold. The Annual was given to each pupil who supplied over half the copies for binding. In 1929 the yearly subscrip tion rate was reduced from fifty four cents to fifty cents, The sales increased .because of the convenience and economy oof the new proposition. The 1950 annual a larger, more interesting year book won second 'place in the Missouri State Contest, fi Members of the Staff are ae- signed different tasks in help- ing printf the WEcho.N.

This is the tribute we wish to pay to.-our superintendent, Mr. Ei BW Street. He has looked into the future and foreseen our edu- cational problems, met them de- liberately, and solved them rat- ionally. He has created for us a system so flexible, so democrat- ingwthat modernism cannot upset its-a system that makes citizens forzthe world as it is, not as itfought to be. He has kept fa- miliar with the new knowledge available that he might better build for this new democratic society. Whatever the stock of equipment, he has toiled with un ceasing persistence to mold pthe material at hand into such form as will meet the practical needs of daily life and at the same time approach the idealistic. He did not wish to do the job sings le-handed, so solicited the co- operation of all and .gave them an interest in his project. uSchool .should be a 'happy placegn says Mr. Street, WThen the boys and girls will want to be there and will have a desire to do good work. The result will be more good citizens.

A teacher cannot teach that he does not himself fpossess. As character education comes first in a child!s,life,.so it has al- ways been' first .With teachers. Character comes first in busi- ness,. in. the home, in citizen- ship and learning. ,yly g Q , Margaret, Aglexander-Foreign Lang- uages Missouri Valley College Nora D.

Miss Bedford shows 'em how to have fits, So needful in aprons and dressesg ' An artist with thimbles an' scissors an' sich, Needle-ology is what she stresses. , In art work that's arty they're holdin' their own With two of the brush-slingin' folk, Kiss Lorena David puts pepper in pep, An' Miss Laughlin's far from a joke. In Math there are nine of the doodle-bug tribe, Frovin' figgers won't lie an' the restg P Thcre's a Gross, Deacon, Deniel,- good natured as Heck, Tege,- It's Earl, an' N. Killer, you've guessed.

J I V. The Social Science depart-, ment in Junior High School com- prises one thousand students with nine teachers. The seventh grade studies, the geography of the eastern hemisphere and the early periods of American hist- cry. The eighth grade completes the United States to the present day' and then takes up the study of Civics. The ninth grade covers the period of Ancient and Med- ieval history. Each year's Work gives the Student a foundation for that of the nextg for all these studies geography, history and civics are really one Social Science, Or the science of people living together on the earth. The class- es are conducted quite different- ly from the old cute and dried text-book study of bygone years. Reference books newspapers, maga- zines and motion pictures are us- ed to give additional interest and information. hThe students, themselves, contribute greatly to the vitality and purpose of the studies by making posters, slides and various projects. One being the William Penn club, a social science project organized by Mr.-Wesner, has published the nEchoH the Junior High School paper for three years. . Among' other things this year the department presented an Armistice Day program at the Mem- orial building. we tifikfiigggij L .Z U, A J,-,., , 1, 4 -- X up -,Q .

The majority of the pupils en- rolled in first year Latin will not continue their study of the language beyond the second year. The purpose of the Latin de partment then, is to present the work of the firstc and second years of the high school Latin course in such a way that it will have' a value in itself apart frem being a mere prepara- tion for later study.i F The chief value of' the first year Latin for most pupils is in the increased knowledge of . English which it affords. In our classy work we try to accomplish this by the correlation of Latin and English, in every phase. of the subject,' vocabulary, word study, grammar, and translation. ' Every student is required to prepare all class assignments and in-addition to do extra wurk in translation, make reports Hen outside treading, make-poster g or ado 'original twork which in some way teaches him more about Latin.5iEach six' weeks there is a definite requirement- for such work. The amount to be done de- pends 'on the student's ability in class and his desire ton inn crease his knowledge of Latin-U lVlODD2N LlXNGU!XGEf There are three Freshman Spanish classes this year, comf posed of seventy pupils. ,The chief -aims in the ,teaching of Spanish are to develop the pup- il's ability to read Spanish, to learn as much grammar as is need ed for reading with comprehen- sion, to learn to speak Spanish, and pronounce it correctly, to learn something of the past and present of Spain, to know the characteristics of the Spanish people, and to develop a langua- ge sense. The Spanish course of study includes sight reading for com- prehension, written exercises, and short compositions in Span- ish drill and pronunciation. French was introduced again to the curriculum of the Inde- pendence Schools ithis nyear. There is a beginning class com- posed of twenty-seven Freshmenf The immediate objectives of this French course, are to de- velop the pupil's ability to read French, to enable him to un- derstand spoken French, to teach him to speak French with correct pronunciation and to teach him to write French, composing very simple original themes. In addition the pupils are taught something of French ous- toms and ideals by reading them short stories along with supple- mentary work in dramatization. .fgpm -ui Q EF' it X, - fi ni' MM W EE ll' 5 WW an jf 57 533 X X . ed .l X if .ggi L mit is i ,,....:1,,., 4 Ammpfdmiap 'Tvs .,.:,,.: .:...1 , , ,:,, ml!

The infant was christ- ened, WNewtonian Math Club.N Since that frosty evening of December, 1930 he has grown till it takes twentyeight of the keenest minds to care for him. In order that he might have proper attention an organized group was necessary. Robert Fau- YI cett was elected presidentg Wal- lace Beatty, Vice-presidentg Jack Newhousc, secretary-treasur ery and De Witt Stevenson, re- porter. With these mighty men as leaders and their efficient help ers, the child has Wanted noth- ing. Since this lad was born in e year of hard times he was nat- urally tight-fisted.

Iihnow I should have written sooner but then I havelbeen very- busy with my school work, plays, and any athletics in which I can take part:v'How.isf that.4for ,a- good excuse? You asked me to tell you about our athletics so here goes. , . y. , , A, . , Our school year -seems to naturallyfrdivlds.7itselfu into three parts. During the fall term webergantzet heme Troom baseball teams and challenge other rooms to p1ayV'ussp We, do not play on the school playgrounds because We might get run down by any- thing from an Austin to a ten ton truck. That's no joke. We playf on a piece of groundf known asg the campus about three blocks away. It's lots' of ifung butyl believe if the playground were h nearer the school' We could play oftener,, because at leasti one teacher must be with-us. When we don't play ball we play marbles on the Way home. We really should go home Ito, play 'because it is dangerous besides being annoying for our igame to stop while the. cars whizz by. But then, I guess it is just as our teachers tell us--We just by experience. Won't learn except ' ':Weiplay volley ball quite a lct.- Each home room has a boy's and'girl's team and signs up in room B29 for games to be played at noon5 when the Weather is good.

THE MEANING OF XMAS X is the initial letter of the Greek word meaning Christ. The Early Christians abbreviated it because it was felt that the word was too holy to be written out in man-made letters and that the ab- breviation should be a symbol, not a representation of the name. And so, in XMAS the X is really a relic of an attempt to render es- pecial worship and respect to the name of Christ. The HMASH is from Latin missa, meaning a mass, or religious celebration.. . ,, -e:,- A THE JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOLFACULTY AND STUDENTS EXTEND THEIR SYMPATHY TO MES..FANNYE LEE KNIGHT AND SURVIV ING M MBERS OF THE FAMILY IN THEIR RECENT GRIEF FOR THE DEATH OEAOUR.NEIGHBOR-ACR0SSeTEE-STREET MRS.,R.B4 SNYDHR... , giThe William Penn Club Presents ' V 41,'.GiftIt0 School , I .The William Penn Club presented a I 1 1 3 Ai A 1 I 1 1 5 E 2 1 1 5 I A 1 1 I , I two piece velour divan set and a Windsor rocker to the Junior High, School.

They may' pity or help the man, but what man wants pity or help 5 NEW this doesn't mean that s per- son should squirm out of a mis- take. Far from it.

W April 22, 1951 JUNIOR HIGH PARENT-TEACHER GROUP HEARS TALK ON HHABITS or THRIFTU Marshall Miller Explains the Necessity of Thrift Education Atrthe Junior High School Parent- Teacher meeting, held, Tuesday, April 14, Mr. Marshall Miller, Chairman of the Mathematics de- partment spoke on'nThrift Habits and the Teaching of Thrift.H VThe teaching of thrift and indus try is a patriotic duty and an ob ligation of both the school and the home,n said Mr. Miller. nThe average life experience of che hundred men from the age of ' 125 to 75 shows at the age of 653 56 are deadg four are well offg five self supportingg one richg and 54 are in the poor house or Qtner charitable institutions.' This in itself shows the need of 4Education in Thrift'n. . nThrift and industry go hand in' hand. You cannot be thrifty with- out being industrious. Thrift to some may have an unpleasant sound- miserliness or doing without, just in order to accumulate. But thrift reallyimeans, wise spend- ing of the things that bring hap piness and comfort rather than sacrifice. It means simply living within our own means and buying only what we can afford. Buying only what we can pay for and at the same time save some part of our income.H y nThrift means care and wisdom in the management of one's resour- ces. It means, use without waste regardless of what it is, money, time or food.u Mr. Miller went on to say, nThis education should begin in the home almost at birth. The child will form the kind of habits his father and mother exhibit. A well-order- ed home where thrift is constant- ly practiced by parents is the strongest force in the development of thrift nabits.U HA child delights to have a sav- ing bank, to shake and feel the increasing weight and yet with- 1 Out guidance it would spend all at once.H HMuch can be said in favor ofchil dren earning their own money. They appreciate it much more. But if you do not give the child a small Weekly allowance, then teach him to save. Help him by letting him hel himself. Teach him to finish P ' O' what he undertakes. Half finish ed work develops carelessness and thriftlessness. Too many tOYSf 300 much cand too many movias icon' Y, tinued on page 2 column l.l Vol. III. No. 16.
