8 JORDAN HIGH SCHOOL FOLIO That little girl who used to think how wise she would be when she graduat- ed has only a few more precious days' studying in her dear old school... graduation has come! The young woman is not the wise young woman the 'flittle girl thought she would be. That was a sad mistake. She will receive her diploma in a very short time, and instead of saying that all her studying is ended for life, she will realize that she has learned ONE big lesson in all her school vears, and that is to want to learn something. d After I graduate, may I go on in life wanting to learn something, and ing, even they made me not the wise woman the little girll' thought I satisfying that want. Then I shall know that all these years spent in study- would be, will have taught me that greatest lesson: To want to learn. -Irma V. LeClair. 6-5nJ'bel T EVERYONE'S ENEMY. THE ALARM CLOCK The alarm clock is a menace to sleep. It always seems that just when a person is sleeping most soundly, or perhaps is in the midst of a very pleasant dream, the alarm clock delights in send ng forth its jarring ring so that the sleeper is rudely awakened, and although he may be tempted to doze off again, he is not likely to do so, because his conscience Cif he has any at ally will not allow him to. He knows that he has set the alarm to ring at that certain hour to awaken h'm and even though he casts murderous glances at the clock, and vows to cast it into the handiest rubbish pile, he heeds its warning ring and shakes off the sleep which is quickly enveloping hm. Sleep and the alarm clock will not mix, and wherever there is one of these two present, the other will he lacking. -Marion Harris. Cwqmdlnaspffb IT HAPPENS IN THE BEST REGULATED FAMILIES In bed at last! Isn't it a grand and glorious feeling! But oh! didn't I have a Wonderful time at the hop! My goodness it's nearly one o'clock! And to think that I have got to get up at six to-morrow morning to get to the orchestra rehearsal on time. Oh dear, I fear I will not, and Mr. Horne looked daggers at me last Friday when I was ten minutes late. Let me see, how many hours of sleep shall I get? I know I should have at least nine to keep my school girl complexion. Goodness mel I shall get only five. VVell, I'll make it up to-morrow night. Next morning, just as I am about to marry the Prince of VVales or some such creature, little sister comes toddling in and kisses meg then when I do not wake she tugs at the clothing and screams in my ear. You said to be sure and wake you when I got up. Papa has the fur- nace fire all built, and see what he brought me from the Shrine Club last night, a great big red balloon man, and he stands up too.

10 JORDAN HIGH SCHOOL FOLIO X'Vell, all right dear, don't disturb me again. I am going to stay ten minutes longer. I no more than turn over before up she comes again. Dad says it's been ten minutes. Out I come this time, rubbing my eyes. Sister, says I, can't you stay in bed one morning and leave me alone F Oh well, there's at least one in every family. ' , -Vera Tibbets Gxsnauukvfbl t FROM A REAL FELLOW NVe're stepping out now, fellows, into a new game. The game of life with success for some and knocks for others, but if we take those knocks and come back for more, success is in store for us, too. XYe are like a team before a game when the coach has given you all he has, for our teachers have done the same for us, and we can best show our ap- preciation by going out to Win. So keep smiling and fighting, and as it is the first charge that counts most, hit life's line hard. -Ralph Fraser. G-5:-u4l:ef T SPEAKING OF ROBBERIES' It seems that High Schools are coming into the public eye through the tricky work of robbers. jordan High School has, anyway. She can boast of head lines on the front page of the Lewiston Evening Journal. It is, of course, an honor to be on the front page. The thieves were liberally paid for their bother, perhaps they don't realize the honor and service they have rendered Jordan High School! If the thieves would reconsider the matter and return the money to Mr. Butler, perhaps he would use a little influence to have the thieves' names on the front page in return for the service rendered us. -Doris Brown. G'5:usJlaeIk-n:f'T THE SECRET OP HAPPINESS The life is a beauty, the life is good, and sing sweet voices. I see, dear friends, the wish that you have to be happy. Happiness is neither the realizing of long caressing dreams, nor the satisfaction of all its likings. Happiness is waiting for you, friends, if you are working to make the others' happiness. R Sowing happiness by giving good examples, and by doing well around one's self-there is the real secret of happiness. Oh! be, be generous, young boys and young girls, and seefyour- selves-if you can't get that treasure, which is Happiness. I -Bertha d6BZOiS.
