Are They Peace Time Ambitious? - cont'd When we study the causes and the effect of war in such a light, we begin to see just what the term international anarchy really includes. Through discussion we discover how the muni- tions manufacturers have done anything but wait for trouble to begin, but instead have stirred it up. When we see all this, it should give us a glimpse of where some of our future work should lie. We heartily agree with joseph Lash, leader of the American Student Council, who said, 'fThe highest service to one's country today is to prevent it from going to war. , .l.l-- The Qld Jokes are The Best Jokes Mrs. Wright-Come now, a rich beefy tone.

HAT does the world hold for those who are about to graduate from high school? Politicians dwell upon unemployment, its cause and cure. However, the advice of most business men to graduates is for them to get as much education as possible. If one can not afford a college education, then one should make use of post-graduate courses in high school, courses in night school, and the reading facilities of the library. However, every effort should be made to gain a college education, because the chances are exceedingly bright for those who have the foresight to prepare for a career in one of the newer fields, or one which is not overcrowded. Today such companies as General Electric and Westinghouse are interviewing young men not yet graduated from college, with the idea in view of having them start work right after graduation. All in all, the student who has foresight, ambition and the will to climb to the top has a very good chance to get there. But there is another thing that faces the graduate today. Diplomats shriek war! War - more deadly than ever before! Yet, after all, who are those that will stand in front of the very latest instruments of destruction, most of them guaranteed to kill, or at least maim for life. Well, if there is to be another war, we might as well begin to quote, We who are about to die-, for it is we, and our fellow students all over the land, in both high school and college, who will face the cannon and fall. VVe were born during, or just after, the war. Today, we are seeing its long-lasting effect upon civilization, we are looking forward to paying for it, and, to top it all, we are hearing all the details about another war! We can give thanks that our school system does its utmost to give us a clear and unpre- judiced view of all questions and governments.

Ca ping-pong gallery, a bicycle track, just a lanej Trips Through HERE being some seventy-two juniors, all not having the same classes, your corres- pondent will have to pick out one typical junior as he wends his way through a typical school day. First of all, we'll have to name the day. If we take Monday, it wouldn't be a typical day, for most of the scholars are recovering from the week-end and are, consequently, not quite awake. Of course, there are some exceptions to this rule, and that works both ways. For instance, there are some that are chipper as can be upon blue Monday. They bound in and out of classes with bright and cheerful remarks, which form a de- cided contrast to the rest of the despondent students. Then there are those who really can't seem to drag themselves about. They succeed for a while, then usually take a trip to dreamland, preferably in study hall. Then there is Tuesday. The students are not quite reconciled to the fact that they do have to go to school five days out of the seven. However, things are getting more cheerful. By Wednesday, they are thinking that after all life, as a whole, isn't so bad. They've been in The Classes school all of two days, and they have only two more to go, all of which leaves them in a normal state of mind. By Thursday and Friday, they are so good- natured that it would be abnormal, so we'll have to take Wednesday as th: typical day. About five minutes before nine, the pupils begin to straggle into the home-room. About nine o'clock, Miss Stone begins a series of pleas, all of which run along the same line- Quiet, Please. Also about this time, Dorothy Crowell runs into the room with the familar slip of blue papers-a pass telling Miss Stone that she is really here, but has gone to the library to be the more or less indispensible helper to Virginia Barker, that cheerful little person who makes the library ring with-well-girlish laughter. At about two minutes after nine, Chester Oeinck, who has been engaged in a terrific inner struggle as to whether he should come at all, gets to school, and eventually, to the home-room. The bell rings and the school-day begins. Those that stay in 309 for the French class are likely to witness the following scene:
