Newcomers to faculty of Lincoln high school look over first issue of fldvocate. i l Mrs. Pierce Mrs. Pierce deserves as special a place in the Links as she has earned for herself in the cafeteria. Good, clean food is always to be obtained there, and in spite of recent rises in the cost of food, students and teach- ers of Lincoln high school can still secure a healthful filling meal very cheaply in the cafeteria. Miss Davis Retires The decision of Miss Davis to give up her career of teaching will leave the social science department minus one of the parts of its mechanism which has helped make that group one happy family , said Mrs. Grace G. Hyatt, head of the social science department, when Miss Davis' resignation was announced. She is a grand friend. She can always find time in the hurry of school life to do the pleasant thing. MW

Sopho- mores, juniors, and seniors all have represen- tation on the council and through the petition system the student body has complete respon- sibility for the choice of students they make members on the council. Each member serves on a specific committee which keeps informed on school needs. These committees take charge of extra-curricular activities, the club schedule, clean-up activities, safety cam- paigns, and provide for hall guards and door- men. Every Wednesday at 2:30 the council meets to discuss and act on student affairs. One of the most important of its functions is the pro- duction of Toy Night. The council is in com- plete charge of this spring event. With faculty assistance it judges contestants, attends re- hearsals, and carries on an extensive adver- tising campaign. Before any work is started a theme is developed. The theme this year was a night in a U. S. O. recreational center of an army fafnp. Result of all this labor is not only an entertaining production but also is a source of finance for the student fund. Several times during the year, the council sponsors Friday matinee parties in the gymnasium. Pit the first of every semester, a sophomore party introduces the newcomers to each other. The student council is constantly aiding in reforms that will benefit the entire school. It plays an important role in school life. During school hours and long afterwards, it works to promote a more efficient, better student gov- ernment. . George Howard calls the meeting to order.
