This was the first school that the seventh to the ninth grades attended. -After a fewyears and as the town of Independence grew larger the students were moved to the Central high school. The high school students then moved into Wiliam Chrisman which had been built. During this time Mr. A. C. Morris was the principals -of the school. He was very well liked and helped the students very much. Mmliorris was principal for nearly sixteen years. After Independence grew even more, a new building was erected inl925. This building cost 3150,000 and was well equipped for the pupils and -teachers. This building has about thirty rooms and the principal's office. Mr. Blevins Davis, the second principal, held the position for only one year. He resigned his position for one with the Yale School of Drama. His successor, Mr. Marshall Miller, has held the office for six successful years., In the monthof February, 1959, a fire broke out in the old building-late in the night. Although many firemen and much fire fighting equipment was on the scene, it was impos- sible to control the blaze. The old building was completely demolished. The new building, however, suffered very little damage due to a fire door which separated the two parts. A new piano and much equipment was destroyed. Also the library building was destroyed but many of the books were savedf After the ,fire the seventh and eighth grades wcmt only a half day but the ninth grade attended full sessions. This was not very satisfactory but sufficed until the completion of the new wing of the building. Work on it was begun in 19593 it was ready for occupancy in the fall of l940. The build- ing cost 290,000 and is very beautiful and modern. The build- ing has twelve new rooms among which are a large study hall and the cafeteria. Each of the rooms is well equipped and makes for pleasant associations. FHCUL TH fff f7 J T 5539! ul ' 5 f 'E- GL ff? '-1? Fi-:41-. .qw 2. ,, ,vm . 7w .Q-, ff ,,,- - mlfutlfnp if X 1 'Z'-,Q, .

' After stating so many facts concern- ing the harmful effects of alcohol, I do not want to leave the impression that there are no ways in which it is useful. Alco- hol when used in the medical world and the industries of science and art is invaluable. In conclusion, I wish to present a quo- tation n'om Sir William Osler who has said, As Moderation is very hard to reach,and it has been abundantly shown that the best of mental and physical work may be done without alcohol in any form the safest rule is abstinence. ' aooorwraer-rack WHAT sermon ,SAYS Anour ALCOHOL by Louisa DALTON 5 The fight against alcoholism is as old as human history. We read about it in many places in the Bible. No other poison causes so many deaths or leads to so many diseases, Mh physicaland mental, as does alcohol in the various forms in which it is taken. A , The effect of ethyl alcohol when taken into the healthy body is never ad- vantageous. When taken in any form alco- hol's first and most serious action is on the nervous system. ' ' ' For nearly a hundredyears studies and experiments in this country and other countries have been carried on to deter- mine the exact effects of alcoholic drinks upon the human organism,the most wonderful machine in the world because it is the one with a highly developed nervous system. From these scientific studies have come four' charges against alcohol as a bever- age: Alcohol is a narcoticg alcohol is a deterrent of bodily functionsg alcohol is a habit- forming drugg and alcohol isa Protoplasmic poison. Alcohol is a narcotic and a narcotic is an agent that temporarily lessens the activity of living matter. Ethyl alcohol so affects, expecially the nerve centers. i that it numbs, dulls, or narcotizes and thereby tends to put the nervous system to sleep. Chloroform, ether, and nicotine are other narcotics, but because alcohol is the only one that is drinkable it is the easiest to take. Alcohol is absorbed so rapidly that in less than fifteen minutes after it is taken enough has been found in the blood to have ameasurable narcotizing effect on the nerves. When the nerves are affected bythis narcotic they see, hear, taste, feel, and move less than usualg for example, if one is tired and takes beer or wine the alco- hol dulls the nerves and in a few minuites the drinker feels less, that is, feels less tired and thinks. he is rested. The effect is the same if he is ill, shy, cautious, worried, or whatever feeling of discomfort is uppermost is lessened and the drinker feels less and thinks he is better off. The drinker may know that alcohol is habit-forming, andthat if he takes a little he is liable to take more, but if it is available, he repeats Rip Van Winkle's ex- cuse, This time won't count , becausehis judgement and self'-control are the first faculties to be dulled and later put to sleep. He feels no warning and senses no need to stop. The Japanese proverb gives a true explanation: First the man takes a drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes the man. . Dr. A., J. H. Crespi, Wimborne, Eng- land, tells of the testimony of two moderate drinkersg they had no' difficulty in abstain- ing altogether, but a single glass made it difficult to refuse a second and then the third was eagerly desired. Both said it was safe and perfectly easyto abstain C0111- pletely, but moderation was delusive, dan- gerous, and required constant guard. The only safe plme for alcohol is outside the bodyg it may be life in the mechanical en- gine as fuel, but death when in the human engineer, bothto him and to those in his Care . , ' - . We can come to only one conclusion: that from the scientific standpoint total abstinence must be our course if we follow the plain teachings of truth. i T HVHERHIHH LEMON EUHTEST l!,!!UUE!72S'e AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP , ' , 1 ITS ADVANTAGES AND OBLIGATIONS By Patsy Warren - i It would seem now, when we look back one hundred and thirty--four years as though no argument for our Constitution should be necessaryg no other government in the world so completely and careftlly protects the rights of the individualg no other country in the world has ever so prospered under anygovernmentgno other rzcuntry has Z E 3 ever enjoyed such along -period of compare- tive peace, of prosperity, and liberty with-2 in me law as we have under this great in- strument Under its protection, the United States is'today, the richest, most intelljri gent,the most powerful, and .I venture -to say, the happiest nation the world has ever seen. The most striking document ever penned by human hands declared us free and independent and that freedom became a reality 4 21 living .reality for which every American citizen is grateful. lj, The Bill of' Rights promises every citizen of the whole nation safety and freedom. It promises him that his proper-f ty shall be safe andthat if he is accused of wrong doing he shall have a public trial. 1 It promises him freedom of worship, free-5 dom of speech, and freedom of the press. The Bill of Rights, the -Declaration of In- dependence, the Constitution of the United States are sacred documents to every Amcri-2 can citizen. No other nation has made posible to all races and classes over the whole nation the opportunities of education and employ-1 ment or the conveniences and comforts en-: joyed by American citizens, The American citizen is promised pro-Q tection' by the governmentg the enjoyment of life and liberiywith the right to ac-' quire and possess property of every kind, 2 and pursue and obtain happiness and safety- ' subject nevertheless to such restraints aS thc goverment may justly prescribe for the general good of the whole There are two kinds of patriotism An intense wave of patriotism has swept over the country and that is exactly as it should be The American flag is com mending a greater respect since the World War and that is exactly as it should be Nearly eval-ycme, fniirding those who thought of war in Europe and the Far East as some- t hgi n ghremote from any influence on the United is becoming. keenly aware of the dangers in this .threatened world, and that is as it should be. But there is something. more to patriotism than flag-V waving and anthem---singing. Those are the outward manifestations , N ow, a s per- haps never before in history of this country, we need ra. tT:,in1cing citizenship, keenly aware of and willing to shoulder the responsibilities that lie ahead. Ina world almost dominated by total- itarian governmcnts, the American system of trading will suffer a severe setback, a much greater setback than perhaps we now think possible. And if it comes, it will mean a lowering ofthepstandard of living for millions of Americans. The goverment has already launched ai' gigantic defense program that will make this nation the strongest in the world .With these forces of defense, nonation will be ,able to dic- tate trade or any other terms to us. We will gain and hold the respect of smaller nations vitally needed in the battle for trade. This defense programwill be costly and will entail personal sacrifices. In meeting this crisis true patriotism can best. be shown. e - , We must be prepared to pay our in- dividual share and get away from the at- titudeof want ing the other fellow to pay our share too. We must be willing to make sacrifices. We must gain anew and deeper respect for this greatrgovernrtient of ours, the government that has .-enabled us to live as we have.. That is real patriotism. h A George Washington tooka solemn oath, I promise to preserve, protect, and ded fend the Constitution of the United States. Let us as American citizens of today make. and keep this same pledge. 9 3 a . . . . 1 . 5 ' - . ' nmnrcm CITIZENSHIP I 3 f ' V ms ADVANTAGES Ann ostremfions By Suzanne Carpenter Tobe an!-Xmerican citizen means .very little to some people. They just 'think it is to live in the United States. It is much n101'e than this. It is to love and want to help one's country. ' 'A ' ' To' have a free religion is why our ancestors came to this country and this is one of the most important advantages of being a citizen. To be sent to prison be- cause you worship differently than your ruler was..-and still is, done in many countries. A few years ago in foreign countries all of the Christian Bibles were taken from the people and destroyed. In our country most people use their Bibles every day. The recent election in Mexico was very blood-thirsty and many people were killed. In our country we have law and order which prevent this kind of lawless-- ness. We have brave and thoughtful police-f men who help everyone. , The right to vote - what does that mean to most people? Sometimes it means to vote for your friends regardless of policy. To vote is a privilege, it is to think of who would do your country, state, or town I go to American is or lowed to go to the most good. school and I think every should be proud to be al- school. Children in other countries have to pay fees because there are no public schools arrdbecause of great distances without transportation or have to begin work on u farm or in o factory. American child should never say, Oh, I don't want to go to school today. I don't see what good it does me. This is wrong because school always helps you be something in your later life if you use your knowledge in the right way. Boingo citizen of the United States entitles you to a fair trial by jury in case you are accused of some crime. You are given a chance to tell your story and the jury decides whether you are guilty or not. A free press to tell the people of t he true happenings' in a country is a great advantage to a free country. If you are fortunate enough to be a citizen ofthe United States, get together W ith yourfriends and try to help your country, which gives one the most pprice- less gift, that any notion can offer and that is opportunity, One can go as for as his abilities will carry himg he' can go where he willg no traditions hamper himg no limitations are set except' those within himself. ff A In no land except the United States is the way so clear and so free. l' ' - BYE 222:21-' V EQ HE JUNIOR HIGH SCEDQL orchestra w s organized twenty-three years wage. , Frczni a small 'beginning it has grown Sipnto a ,wel-l -rounded gro up as of many pieces.f There have been nine or ten leaders of the ggr ou p. in that time.

That is the way some students act 'on one of the most public spots we have, our playground. Just as many, in mot more people observe you there as any ot her frequented place. The playground is a place for school childrenio playtogether and to enjoy themselves and this surely cannot happen if bad and unmannerly conduct' ' is prevalent. ' ' . A- The Juniorhigh school playground is the part of our school on which the public bases its opinions and prejudices about our school. E . ' . So let's all cooperate in an united ieffortto make our playground amore enjoy- able place in which to spend our morning, noon, and after school play periods. A , AR E YO ui owftlofn-THEM?

Each day pupils should bring some mat erial. to wor k on in -study hall and use the hour for a good- purpose. It is believed some pupls' think study hall is to get the latest .bit of gossip, write notes, lead comic magazines and toannoy their neighbors so they canlt their lessons. They are wrong: because everybody can always learn more, Study hall gives us an opportunityto get most of our homework her at school. Let's work while we have the chance in order to have more free time for after school play. Remember there's a time and placefor everything and study hall is the place for, study.

Some of us do, but some of us do not. .Which one are you? A P Many studs-ntsdo realize, how-ever,that Armistice is the term given to a truce or suspension of hostilities between two armies or nations at war by mutual consent. It may be either' general or partialg the first, h between two cuntriesg the last, limited to particular places as between two armies. This ordinarily reouires ratification. To -our country today Armistice Dey does not hold the sane reality it did twen-2 ty-two years ,ago when we thought it wss thei end to ouryconflict withforeign powers. Today- though we commemorate Armistice Day with a feeling 'of uncertaintyg yetvse stand ready to defend and protect the principles and rights which our country has.

Let us help her to keep the library and its books in the best condition and in dQing so wehelp ourselvesf ' ' WO weeks ago the ECHO announced the names of nineteen students 'who were ' selected for membershipin the Wil- ljam..Penn club. Each one of those students deserves to be congratulated- .because he ranks high in his classes and possesses those qualities of personality which will make him valuable to the ECHO. There were, undoubtedly, a numberof students who were disappointed that their names were not included in that list .l To those, we wish to say that we are sorry. O ur recommendation list from each grade contained from twenty-five to fifty names of t he h i g h e st ranking students -the cream of the .crop. It was no easy task to choose from among them. -E The Eng-:lishand art teachers, the sponsors of the William Penn club, and Mr. Miller .considered each name Very carefullys P At the beginningof the second semes- ter, another groupwill be chosen.

A ' A Originally, Christmas celebrated the birthuolf the Christ Child .S srhisfwes ceasf greatest gift to a selfish, sinful world. How many oi'-yfou know what this ift was sent for? This gift' was sent to bring joy and gladness' 'to everyone. How far away we have wandered from the .true significance .of the-day! Instead of giving with an un- selfish, 11umb1e'- spirit, we give as if it A- were one oi' the duties we must fulfill, for- getting that, nlt is better to give, than ll to receive . The result is 11at:red audi jealousy, instead' of good will and peace. p Let us all rerhember that the Christ Child is' just as much a gift today as He was thousands of years ago,' and the song the angels sshg over asth1ehsm's hills is just eslwonderfui to ns as it was to the shepherds watching their flocks that night.

That evening the doctor droppedin to see Iis patient, and as he was a :ood friend of Anne's, he called her to him, and said in a' low tone, My child, I think it is too bad. for you to miss being wi-th your family and young friends during the Christmas holidays.. ' Your Aunt is not sick, she only thinks she is. Surely we can devise some plan to keep her from feeling too Sorry for herself, and at the .same time' get you home for Christmas. Sowith still lowered voices the :food doc- tor and.Anne agreed upon a play to try. -, Next morninm- Anne fresh- ened up her Aunt with a brieht colored bed jacket,combed hero hair becomingly, and served breakfast. Then with a sly twinkle in her eyes Annehanded a mir ror to her Aunt and said, You know Auntie, you're looking' so much betterand rosier. I thought you might like to see yourself. Aunt Ann took the mirror a nd gaspedas she saw how well she looked. We ll, bless my s oul, I do look well, don't I? I think I shall try to sit up today. Ry the morning of the twent y- fourth, Aunt Ann was her frsay, sweet self asain. As Anne tried to help herdress she said, I am really not sick any more, It seems a p i t y for you to be missing Christ-l mas at home. So practically at the zero hour Anne arrived home to find :that mother had planned new :party dresses as a surprise. :She and Jean went in the party gradiant in' their new gowns and ,danced until the last :vood- iniqht waltz . ' Q Later, when the girls were iadmiringgly hanging up t he sprecious dresses, Jean blunt- came to- the point and Jasked, Anne, for goodness' fsake, tell me how on earth zAunt ie happened to let you come home Q Anne related the story of .the mirror and concluded with, 5 I would never have forziven 5mYSS1f if Auntie really had gbeen sick but she wasn't. I ihad the doctor's word for it. :He thinks. it was awonderful S CUTE . 2 They b o t h laughed, and Jean assured her sister that :from then on s he would be called Doctor Anne. CHRISTMAS IN MERRY ENC-LAND By Ancela Patterson cena Prize, - ' itil Grade-3 Between the dark and the daylight When the night is beginning to lower Comes a pause in the day's occupation . That is known as the bomb- ing hour . I hear in the heavens above me The whirr of the bombing fleet And the sound of the shriek- ing siren l As people rush from the street From my darkness I see by the flare light , The forms of buildings rare To be in an instant ruined- Oh, what a mad nightmare! Asudden rush down the subway A sudden raid is the call With all homes left unguarded We enter our cellar hall. The planes climb into our ' heavens ' O'er our homes and:-,gardens K fair If .I try to escape, they: surround me ' ' They seem to be everywhere. . ,So once again in the shelter We think of ,the Christmas tide And sing the sweet old carols Ks the bombs burst outside. But when dawn finds Merry England l The carolers ceasetheir song, And they saywith one accord' That peace is gone' - and hate is strong. ' We hope before nert.Christmas All war and strife will end' So the carolers may truly sing Of Peace on Earth, Good ? Will to Men .

Dick Matson Z Member of National Scholastic and Missouri Interscholastic Press Associations 'E SHALL W5 sfeow up 4,5 HIGH school boy usually has a great deal to do with organizations, This isasign of his -maturing intell ia gence and its accompanying interest in or- der and purpose, Organizations are ,becoming increasing- ly important in modern life. They offer an opportunity for persons who have certain interests in common to get together. This is usually a pleasant social experience. It is also a means bv which an individual may strengthen his influence, Comparing your present self with an earlier self is what tells the-real story of your growth. But such comparison rel quires that you have in your own mind some standards by which you can judge whether you are going forward or slipping back. w Yo urteachers, your parents, your friends have no way of knowing what they cannot see unless someone tells them. A When you have gone beyond childish thinking. you know that the public is not interested in what you say or do. To be- have as though you thought so is to appear ignorant. Show your good sense by going your way quietly, not ,drawing notice to yourself by loud talk or laughter, or by flashy clothes. Inconspicuousness is the keynote to well-bred behavior in public. Always show your best character. NE of the greatest effects the new H munitions plant at Lake City will Q have on Junior Highwill be the in- creased enrollment. The enrollment will depend on a number of things: first, how many people will move ing and second, how many children will be of junior high age. LAKE CITYA as A great many complications will arise if the enrollment is greatly increased. It will necessitate larger classes, mo re teachers, and additional supplies.

A .K ' OUR FRIENDS HE essential friends to our school system are the custodians. These 1- fx, men are often called upon to do tasks resulting from thoughtless actions of ours. besides their regular duties, Students come! Students go! But the custodians go on forever. Years, l o ng years, of service are their contribution to our welfare and the advancement to our education. In appreciation of their ser- vice to us, we should all try to lighten their tasks and be friends with them. DO YOUR ZJART! , A f if-f I n Jects which would help you in your lifework. For example, if you had ch sen to bea doctor, nurse or scientist take all the Lati-nyou can. If you plan to be an engineer, aviator, or architect, take mathematics. If you plan a business career take the commercial courses. Ifyou plan a lifetime of writing, take all the English you can get. 'Of course, English will help us all no matter what we wish to be.l Be sure to look ahead before you d e- cide upon your course of study. l SUCCESS' E O be a future success taken the sub-: t. - ' SOYWE HAVE PEP! -' N the tournament which took place at William Chrisman last week .Junior High 35? played six games.

There were a few of us out but not nearly enough to make much of an impression. Our team deserves much bet- ter support.

If you only knew it, no one really cares whether you get mad or not. By losing your temper you only weak points. The next time a or a teacher does something you show your schoolmate don't like, keep your temper and in that ' gain more respect irom evsryoney 2 way you will 5HouLoN7'lwE2 N our school life we spend more time I in the classroom than any other one place outside of home. That means it must be oneof' the most important of our associations. If it is important it should be treated that way. We shoulddo our best to make the most of our opportunities. Are we doing our best when we throw things at the waste basket? Wouldn't it be better to let the basketball team do t he basket throwing? Are we doing our best when we deliberately annoy our teachers? Shouldn't we remember 'that they are human? Shouldn't we take our class periods seriously and thereby learn something of what our teachers try so hard to put across? Shouldn't we remember that their job is to prepare us to be good citizens? I firmly believe that each one of us knows what is considered the proper conduct and attitude, so let's .put our knowledge into practice. , Y K 1, Y V BOOKS OOKS are bought for the schools for a definite purpose. They are not loaned to the students to be torn up and defaced. If kept in good condition they can last for manyeyears. ' Books are of vital importance to all concerned in teaching or learning. They bring knowledge into many homes. A look is like a friend, the more one reads and studies it, the closer it becomes to him. The books in Junior highlschbollare paid for by the taxpayers of the sch ool district and are the property of the stu- cents only for study and reference. They should be returned in the best possible condition. If we will all do our share in tak- ing care of our books, there will be less expense in buying books. That'money'dwill then be used -to make the school a more pleasant place in which to study. l ...:x-.-m-..-.---- MARCH Oh, March is the month for me, When winds are blowing 'gaywand free, -o-4--qv.----'qw' When snow is melting fast away, Q And' spring will- soon be here to stay..

There is a certain disease that is getting hold of many a student ...... spring fever! It may' not be as serious as other diseases, 'but it is affecting many pupils in their studies. In other words grades may fall these last weeks of school if something is not done about it. I Let's try not to let this so-called disease get a hold on us and to maize these last weeks better than ever before. A 5 YE SOVV OW many of you have heard the pro- verb, , As ye sow, soshall ye reap ? A lot of you have, I'm sure. It means whatever you do, you get in turn for it exactly what you deserve. Many of us blamesother people for things that really are our ovm fault. One of the most common mistakes we make is blaming our teachers for our grades. Quite often we are dissatisfied with them. Instead of going to the teacher and asking her what lowered our grades or what we could do to raise them, we complain to the other students that Wit xnas al.l the teacher's fault . Perhaps, we tell our parents that the teacher just doesn't like us , or that someone else who didn't even do as well as we did, received a higher grade. . - Please remember that we, and we alone, are responsible for our grades, Perhaps, we think we did as well as someone else, but usually if you will go to your teacher and check with her you will find that you did not do exactly as you had drought. May-5 be you went down in your recitations and then again you may have done poorer work fewrdays ao, I received an issue of the Leilehua Sentinel, publishedby the studentsiof the Leilehua school in Wahiawa, Hawaii. Miss Louise C-ivan, a teacher in that school, thought that per-- haps you students of .Tunior High would be interested in the work of the Hawaiian students. The staff of the Leilehua Sentinelhad written several enjoyable feature articles among which, the Movie Morselsn was out-i standing. It this article the reader was asked, to match the two lists containing stars and movies in the correct form. Tracy also had the words of the songofthe weeldl fashion hi-lights, poems, and jokes., ' It was interestingto note the sports mentioned in the paper. The I. club girls are receiving lessons in archery, while the Mule Cageballers, the boys' basketbalbteam is doing well in its games. , It seems the students are having trouble with English. In order to h el p the students correct their errors, the ,pa- per had a column telling on the students? Une of the sayings which was quoted there was But..get wrinkles by the sleeve pot'! Translated this would mean, There are wrinkles under the sleevef , -1 The news articles were well written with all the facts given.
