TH2 BLUT ND HITS Volume 3 February 10, 1933 Number 4 Locals ith examinations over we find ourselves enter ini the second half of the present school year. For some it will merely be a reoitition of the old half , with the same monotonous grind; but for others it will really be a new start, a place to begin anew and correct our former faults, a chance for novel achievement, new adverture, and a renewed faithful service to our school. For the seniors it will be the home stretch and the end of a high school career. To the majority perhaps a sad one for after this last half year high school days v i ll he nut a long treasured memory. So let us realize this now, seniors, and strive to make this a grand finale of which we may be justly proud. The American Boy Magazine, in cooperation with the Japan Tourist Bureau, has made it possible for throe hiib school students to go to Japan during July and August with all expenses paid. The three travelers will be the writers of tho three best 390-word essavj. on the subject; Japan - and why I want to Gb There They will leave their homes in time to arrive at Seattle on June 30, when they v ill board a Japanese Mail Line Steamer. In Japan they will see Tokyo, the capital; Uikko, with its famous shrines; the sacred island of Miyajiraa. They will voyage to Korea, returnin_. through the lovel • Inland Sea. ’ Titers of the 1C essavs ajud_ed next best will receive silk loung.in_ robes, fashioned' in Japan of Tapanese silk. Perhaps this explains the reaso the students of the sophomore, '.junior, and senior classes have for the past week been writing essays on Japan. The Alumni dance held Thursday, December 29 was a great success with appro:.ametly 250 present. Penants of classes from 19j9 to 1933 lined the walls, graduates from classes as far back as 1390 were present for you know the first class to graduate from N. H. S. graduated in 1333. The members of the senior class were invited as guests, although next year we hope to be supporters of this worthy organization. The Annual Boy Scout 7 eek has just passed. Perhaps some of you attended the fine exhibition heid in the Farm Show building at Harrisburg the past week and were able to attain a slight glimpse of the vast Scout movement which is being,, curried pn throughout the world to-day by boys. The Newport Scouts exhibited a fine booth on the Reading Merit Badge. The cold and mumps epidemic which prevailed in this vicinity the past months has now called a halt permi-ting many pupils to ' return to school. The absontee slips following the Christmas vace-tion have been very small unci we hope they continue that way. 1 THE BLUE AND ' HITE Locals For the past fev weeks the Sophomore class has been rather busy selecting class colors and penants. The colors finally decided upon are Navy Blue and Silver Trey making a very attractive combinution• The penants are of a ..uvy Blue bcC . ro nd v ith ir inters of a Chinese affect in Silver Orey. We would like to note at this time also that the Sophomore class 3ave a v.ry credible assembly program on Friday, December 23. The Junior class is now preparing for their Junior Night which is o be-given this year in place of the re ular Junior play. The program will consist of a two act play, Nothin; Ever Happens , several musical .umbers, and a number of entertaining readings by members of the class. The 9A iris Home Economics class served vegetable soup last Thursdav noon to those pupils desiring to eat at the school house. The 9A class is also preparing for their assembly program which is to be given in the near future. Last Friday, February 3, the Senior class presentee their assembly program. Fror a radio in the auditorium the entire program was heard. A wire from the radio was attached to a microphone in a nearby class room whore the members of the Senior class, impersonating various popular Radio stars, broadcasted. This novel arran ement, thanks to a most recent invention proved very entertaining to the entire school. On 'Vednesday, February 3, the 9B girls served baked beans to those desirin to eat at the Hi6h school. The 9B room received the fla_ for the second half year v bile the 9A room had it the first half. Their magazines seem very popular with the entire school. The High School Band under the direction Hr. Breneman is preparing for the Southern Pennsylvania District Band Contest which is tobe held at Hanover in April. This District includes 10 counties in southern Pennsylvania and there are three classes, A, B and C. Newport is in class C. The Blue and Hhite has advanced another step by ioining the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. This or.anization aids in the publication of school papers. The Blue and 7hite Has also entered the 9th annual Columbia scholastic Press Contest for ail High School papers in United States. HELOT STRETCHES - D3 -¥0U REUl tefl?

There is much discussion concerning the place of extracurricular activities in modern education. It is true that when a student is engaged in activities such as debating, other types of public speaking, and all kinds of athleticssomething usually is neglected and generally it is the regular school work. On the other hand, one engaging in these outside activities comes in contact with life in a different way which promotes poise, skill, and companionship. He learns how to play the game of life squarly. A knowledge of the vorld--that which the world teaches us--is the substance of all knowledge. No matter what ideas we attain, or how we came by them, they all need illustration by experience. This experience comes first through the different activities of the school. John Bascons of Williams College once said, ’ hat we term education is made up of a few antecedent suggestions in books which we are to verify by experience. Tennis Has a Birthday New York, N.Y., (Ar3)—Lawn tennis was 50 years old in this country this year, and the United States Lawn Tennis Association celebrated the anniversary by publishing a memorial volume, Fifty Years of Lawn Tennis in the United States. The took deals with tennis history, discusses strokes, footwork, strategy, and outlines the careers of such tenr.is geniuses as Johnson, Tilden, and Helen Wills. Of a large edition priced originally at a few hundred remaining copies are offered to high school students at j)l plus 25 cents postage.

In this a ;e of newspapers and magazines witii their rich store cl material it is inexcusable not to te informed concerning current events, ’people spend much ti...e reading of past history and pay little attention to the immediate problems of our nation. They do not seem to realise thao tne current events of today become the history of tomorrow. If a person understand the present, the history of tomorrow will be clear to him. The successful toys and girls of today are the wide awake ones who know sometning of life around them. JPQF instance, let us think a moment. .ihen the morning or evening paper arrives, do we read the important problems of state or do we look for the murders or perhaps leaf hurriedly to the funnies and serial novel? If this is the case I believe it would te better r, this small instance to train ourselves to read all the valuable information first and then if we have a few spare moments, indulge in the lighter reading. Madame Editor; I have noticed that in our High petrol the pupils are not as cleanly in their ha its as tney mifcbt te. I am writing this—whicn you may pfclish in our school paper if you v.ish--to ive you a few suggestions for improvements. Sanitation is essential in order to nave good health; and in our sohool each pupil must do his part. The habit of placing chewing urn, which has been chewed, on the under side of desks and seats is very unsanitary. It not only is a means of spreading dis- ease erms bat also destroys tne appearance of the desks. Throwing paper and other kinds of refuge in the water fountains is a bad habit, and people do not wish to drink from a fountain which is not clean. If these little unsanitary acts would be abolished, our school would be a more attractive and a healthier place to attend. Sincerely, Margaret Smith Han: You look as if you could stand plenty of hard work. Hegro: Yes suh 1 More than one jud e done told me that. F. Saul; Girls you are looking dn my face for the last time.

Can you imagine anything more distasteful than to see a group of beys and girls -walking thru the halls of the schcolhouse Tilth their head's tilted, ignoring everyone whom they pass? They think +hey ar -the cream of the school, and can do jjus-t as they like simply beeaus their parents may have some money, or prestige about the town, ouch groups as these have a tendency to be a detriment rather than an asset to our school. If they attend the local sports events they stand and criticize the players instead of urging them onward. Again in an organization snobs halt the progress of the other individuals and defeat the' issue. According to their’ own points of view snobs think they are certainly indispensible, but outsiders look upon them as wet blankets. Robert S'chlomer What Are You Doing For Your ochool Paper? Every time a new issue of the Blue and White is published, you usually hear some one pass a remark about it saying, There is nothing interesting in it. How can we, as pupils, remedy this? First we can be more enthusiastic in getting material for the school paper when we are asked, or even if we are not asked. I know the staff would appreciate any material we can offer. Second, give all the news, that you think would be interesting to‘the pupils, to your home room reporter. • ; ', . Third, if you think you could do better than the ones on the staff, be sure to take the test that is offered to those who wish to become members of the staff. Janet Gabel The Honor -System Recently we visited an outstanding university of the south, Washington and Lee. It is a lovely place, set in the picturesque mountains of Northern Virginia. It was originally endowed by George ashingto.n, and one of its presidents was the great General Robert E. Lee. its buildings are gracefully colonial, and its academic traditions of the very finest. As we walked across the campus, we were surprised to see books, slide rules, and ether articles lying under trees and apparently abandoned. We learned that at ashingtor. and Lee the honor system reaches its peak of perfection. You can leave your belongings anywhere, and they will remain undisturbed. Instructors dp not police examination halls; in fact, students sometimes write thei'r papers at home. Any student, will quickly tell on another student who is seen cheating; indeed there have been cases where an undergraduate has forced his fraternity brother to leave school. --American Boy Magazine 6 THE BLUE AND WHITE Origin of St. Valentine's Day Every February 14, we celebrate St. Valentine's day. The real significance of this holiday Vegan February 14, 3C6 A. D. at Borne v en It. Valentine was beheaded. This date was set aside to commemorate his depth, and seven other patron saints who lived in France, Belgium, Boa in, Africa, and Dome. These legends have little historical value, vut from the old notion that Mrds began to couple on that da-’ arose the custom of young men and women choosing each other as valentines for the corning year by sending love missives to each other on that day. The custom was to place the names of voung men and women in a box and draw them out in pairs on St. valentine's eve. Those whose names were drawn together lad to exchange presents and be each others' valentines. Later only the men made presents. This was observed particularly; in England, but also upon the Continent. The day has since become a lover's festival and has no connection with the saints. Valentine Greetings From the Staff To the Faculty and Student ody Valentines have always been, Such nice things to send, V hen you .ant to tell 'our thoughts To some soecial friend. You're the friends--That ve'll confess. Nov the thought, ’he'll let you guess. haybe you've already guessed it, Even though we've not expressed it. A corner in our hearts is always thine, And we send you ? thought for a valentine. A loving tbought--and it comes to stay To wish you success and- happiness every day.

Glen Smith: elen Kraft: THE BLUE AN J WHITE WASHINGTON and LINCOLN Among those who are great in American History stnr.d two wh Mr thdaya are celebrated in the month of February. Those tvo ror; o’ J George ..dsnirgton and Abraham Lincoln. The years hav • thru1-;-. a .10Jo about their nan.es and justly so, and today they stand for :he uf-;ot ar.d noblest ideals e.r.i p cri oti sm in America, worthy of example on the part of all--young and old. Washington and Lincoln were similar in respect to their sense of honesty. Have you not heard of Honest Abe and the traditional Cherry Tree story? They were not unlike in their sympathy a«d compassion. These traits were so evident in both in their attitudes and conduct during the critical periods of war tiuie. These two men were great because of their earnestness and application of effort to a task imposed upon or assumed by them. They wore great because they would not permit their loyalty to a cause to which they had dedicated their lives to suffer through petty and 3elfi3h je- u0U3ies. Witness for instance, the Conway Cable, a conspiracy in which Washington was to be displace! by a lesser man, and the efforts t substitute McClellan for Lincoln.. These men were able to live above such things. Both men were alike great because tuey were able to steer a steady we 11-de;ined course through two crises of America’s histcry--the Revolutionary .,ar ar.d the Civil War. 'Washington and Lincoln were unlixe in many ways, i.ashington was a native of t.ie Old dominion state; Lincoln was the first president to be born outside the boundaries of the thirteen original states. Washington from his first entrance into public life was an acknowledged success; Lirco.n was reckoned as a failure at whatever he did, even when he entered the orof easier, of law in which ne was efficient but oftimes too lymp t.netic and sensitive. Washington was an able soldier and general.; Lincoln had no desire to ce a warrior, and ir, the 31ack I wk war proved his utter inefficiency. .ashing-ton’s inaugural was a constant series of ovations from Mount Vernon to the place of inauguration. New York City. Lincoln was secretly ushered through a side door ofa hotel in Harrisburg and taken in a common train to Washington, because of a plot against his life at Baltimore discovered by the detective Pinkerton. Their mannerisms were not at ail similar. ioh the exception of their being.tali the appeararoe of these two men stopped there. Who can imagine Washington as president ir. his srurt sleeves and slippers, not waiting for the servant girl to usher in some fushion-abie ladies, tut going to toe door himself? Who can imagine ..ashing ton forgetting the special knife for the butter? Or telling stories or. any and all occessions? Or thinkin0 cf nis office only as a shelter and his desk as a footrest? ..ashingtor, was very orderly and systematic; Lincoln filed his papers in a tali stove-pipe hat ar.d emptied it only when it was full. And O;. the top of the pile he might write the words, If you c o’ t find it anywhere else, look in this a8 the orator s id of .asbington that he was First in war, first in peace, and first In the hearts of hie countrymen, so tne poet may we.i say of Lincoln that he .salked witn kings, nor lost tne common touch. THE BLUE AND ’-'.HITE Lincoln Up from log cabin to the capitol, Cne fire was on his spirit, one resolve--To send the keen axe to the root of wrong, Clearing a free way for the feet of God. The eyes of conscience testing every stroke, To make his deed the measure of a man. He built his rail pile, as he built the State, Fourir.g his splendid strength through every blow: The grip that swung the axe in Illinois ras on the pen that set a people free. -Edwin Markham Who� s Who ??? His number, is 44000. Convict? No, certainly not! His automobile license. And does he use his Ford much? They are seldom separated, and many girls have been favored by rides there-in. Which one is his prefered--is hard to tell. His actions indicate that he likes them all, and in several ca3es we understand that liking is mutual. He is a Jolly Junior, vice president of his class, and a very good student giving promise of graduating creditably. His chief ambition is to heal the sick, and we think he will make an accbm- plished M. D. EXCHANGE Our Exchange mail hasn't flooJed the postofficc but it is grad'-, ually increasing although cur.old friends, the Maroon and Gray from New Bloomfield and The Founder frcm William Fenn stem to have deserted us. We are very gld to receive The Susquinita weekly paper from Duncannon High School. It is not very big but every write-up has plenty of snap in it, and that includes the poems. This paper is especially to be commended because it is printed in their own school by their Printing Club. The weekly cartoon that appears in every issue is very amusing. 'The Blue and ' hite feels that the School Press Exchange issued by the department of Journalism in State College is rendering new ideas to the school papers of Pennsylvania. We get many new ideas from the comments in this bulletin The Echo comes from Cneonta, New York. It is largely a literary paper and the -contributors of the stories and poems deserve a lot of credit for their efforts. We enjoy reading his paper very much. We also read the article in the February issue of the New York State Education an the- method of teaching the pupils to understand foreign problems written by members of the faculty of Or.eonta. We feel sure of the success of such a plan. In answer to a request from the School District of Ferndrle in Johnstov n we have sent a copu of the Blue and White to that school and we would be gl d to receive a paper from them. 9 THE BIX?

The man told of the handiwork of ’.other Nature in all its phases, giving as an example the beauty of the noon in all its glory shining down on the rip linq waves. Ke also spoke of his friend who had been poor but honest and how this friend had carried out a long-felt want to trip the light fantastic, after which he was tired but haopy and seemin ly none the worse for wear, tut a few days later his remains were consigned to earth. This ended the speech of this man who has lived a worth-while life along this line of service. Lew Long: Ho, Ho, T,a, Ha, sa-' don't you remember me?
