Here are the common, best loved flowers, which you may pluck and carry away by the armiul. Here are weeds also. They creep into the best of garden, more subtle in fragrance, more lasting in their satisfaction, which are well worth searching out. Here are also the grains and herbs of the field, humble and plain, but useful and necessary. All these, for refreshment, for wisdom, for growth, are freely and abundantly yours. A garden is a happy place and a library is a garden. Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.

Page Twenty-two TH E R E D A N D B L A C K Commencement Number FOOTBALL TEAM The Football Season We don't mind the fact that our football season was mostly defeats because in each instance our squad was com- pletely outweighed. Nevertheless, we won from Albion, East Aurora, and Lockport and showed them that Le Roy knew how to play football when chances were equal. The Red and Black eleven did lose a hard fought battle to Batavia though. But then, such a loss is a good test of sportsmanship, and certainly, none can say that Le Roy dd not show its full quota when they returned that afternoon to the old home towng no grumbling or excuses. We wish we had won but we didn't and that's that till next time. The Basketball Season A poor start often means a good ending. We certainly did make a bad beginning, lost the first five games. But, mid-season, the worm turned, and we won from the Roch- ester School of Commerce, from Attica, and Lima with scores in each case well in our favor. Then came the first of our classics with Batavia. We played it there and lost with a score of 21-19. Batavia. listened to a different story, however, when they came down here for the return game. The L. H. S. quint returned the compliment with interest in a score of 13-9. There's plenty of fighting spirit in old L. H. S. and we're proud of the comeback We made. BASKETBALL TEAM
