The journals have been placed in the school library to give the pupils the privilege of reading them during spare time- It seems that they have a habit of looking for the jokes only and omitting the stories and editorials. However, we are persuaded that the pupils of the Milford high school are not unparalleled in their attitude toward such magazines, a fact which tends to make us believe that school

Robinson made some pretty passes and Hilton made a 40-yard run Newcomb was given his first experience in the position of quarterback and ran the team well. The team, as a whole, put up a good game of ball. The lineup: NEEDHAM HIGH. Dernie le Richwagon It Wright lg Quinlan c Childs rg Blades rt Dawson re G. Stanwood qb R.

On Oct. 4 the team travelled to a place in Rhode Island called Pawtucket and came home singing “We have met the enemy and they are ours.” The tune was 6-0. The school hopes that future tunes will always resemble this. The teams were evenly matched as the results of the game easily showed. Milford scored its touchdown in the last half when Lang secured an onside kick on the ten-yard line and firmly planted the pigskin between Pawtucket’s goal posts. The team played a great game and showed their steady drilling. The lineup :— MILFORD HIGH DeCiccio, Howard, re McCue rt Fales, Lang, rg Coombs c J. Duggan lg Crockett It Grayson le Newcomb 2b E.

OAK, LILY AND IVY. 15 papers everywhere are degenerating in regard to literary topics and progressing in would-be funny stories. We do not wish to criticise those schools who, in years gone by, have generously contributed their magazines to our exchange library, but we do wish to offer one suggestion which we shall try our best to accomplish in the Oak, Lily and Ivy, that the department of exchanges hud out into a truly helpful agent for the accomplishment of real literary merit. May all the schools, whom we should happen to come in contact with, combine with us in elevating the standard of criticism in the exchanges. A brief criticism with a twofold utility, helpful and valuable. To the papers we have received we extend a hearty welcome and offer an apology for the tardy appearance of our own magazine. G. G.—“Oh, Elsie, this weather is simply rough on rats.” San-m-te, translating in B French, “The blood came out in floods from his mouth.” Teacher—“Poor thing.” Doctor Derry to class in French:—“Qu’ ’est-ce qu’une prune?” (What is a plum?) Miss R-b-on : “A prune?” Senior (to fair classmate) “Now, take Kane he will be our best man before the season’s over.” Fair feminine Senior (blushing) : “Oh, but this is so sudden, Clifton. C-pp-er, in B- History, reading: “The Danes came as far as the Knocknee Islands and the Hebrewdides.” (Orkney Islands and Hebrides).
