A few weeks after school opened for this term, Kansas City launched a popular sub- scription campaign for $2,500,000; $500,000 of this sum was to be devoted to charity, and the remaining $2,000,000 to be used in the erec- tion of an appropriate “Memorial” for our soldiers who fought in the world war. On this, as on all other occasions of commend- able rating, Lincoln High desired to be well represented. Accordingly, the student body was divided into nineteen teams for campaign- ing in the school. Each team was placed in charge of a captain, a secretary, and super- vised by a faculty member. A strong spirit of rivalry was shown be- tween the teams in their efforts to subscribe the largest amount. Team 13, under the lead- ership of Cecil Newman, subscribed the first largest amount, and Team 8, under Joel Hol- man, the second largest amount. After five days of campaigning the student body’s sub- scription total was $1,144.00. The individual BERNEDIA LEE C. D. — Arguing with W. D. B. W. — Now, Honey. A. L. — To marry Jimmy.
