They soon found out that it wasn’t all cake For now the Plainsman Staff boasts eight! The majority of headlines had been done by Clark. And Gcorgie’s Sports Column was quite a lark. Ninety per cent of typing done by Kil er. Davidson and Rains. They didn’t spare the fingernails, boy, did it take pains! No nose for news,” So we've l ccn told .... And you ought to see the way Scotty” can scold! Edna s Service Column was definitely tops. And the complimenting letters she got were tops! The sixteen pictures taken by Trustworthy Arthur Added a great deal to our little old paper. Our mortality rate had been pretty high. We were slow, that's true, but we got by. We distributed in halls instead of to class, It was a novelty to us. and kids came en masse.” No editor among us, that was quite true. We publicized the Amateur Hour and Glee Club Dance, too. mess!)

And during the year Guest Editorials were written. e wrote editorials to stress an improvement. Soon ’twas learned this was an accomplished movement. Wolves and I.amb$ vied in the sales campaign. George and Val were top winners in this game. .Though the battle raged on with enthused opposition. The W olves as winners, brought the Lambs to submission! The April Fool edition was the last of the year And it brought many a chuckle and loads of good cheer. Six were eligible for Quill and Scroll. For superior work in writing and editing, all told. With that we wound up our writing careers. And we leave room 228 for future years.
