TIC.; BLUE A1IL V'HITh 7 That will he foine, readily replied the professor, ''f3 11 dev: it tew-norrow. Bring in yuh’re selektions Enco, encore, and couple o huzzas, assented the grou; of {.entile kic. ie3. We’ll briny em i.i tew-morry.” But, tv?c '■ev.C'1 later’. I’, i Children, r.eremcorily came f.-ou the professor, I sa •, her there are t -o plays presented and you pronounced theta—to u e your vernacular—lousy It is quite perturbable, quite. For one of your members suggested the use of a poll to determine the inclinations of the group, as a whole, too rds ssa ibly programs. T is war very fitting and proper, but you students were rather dilatory and not one vote was cast. So how. can your ishes be expressed? It’s like the man who v oits for his ship to come in. The nan’s ship never c aes in, and neither will you be wholly satisfied or pleased T ith the a senbl;, programs, if your mandates ere not put before the assembly program co. :ittee. You can get nothing more out, than you put in. Small school activities cooperation between various units of the whole is necessary; end in these sundry avocations it is mcreso evident than in any other branch. So now, students, cast your votes; ask other cl sses what they like; cooperate and benefi . b. the whole school being more and more closely bound. Instead of a small minority being pampered, let the great majority be pleased. Geez de perfessor’s ri it. Tree cheers fer de perfessorV Isn’t that rather applicable in 21. k. .. too? And by the by, you remember the last issue of the Blue and V Iiite had I something about casting votes to decide'what the student body liked in the ay of assembly programs?

If Madeline Smith has gotten permission to let a bey put his arm about her. 7 hy Vainer Hoke was late for French class the other day. Youth calls to youth, -hie poet says, And it's a good thing, too.

They are at thoir uosks bright and early and hard at work in the twinkling of an eye. .Jo or,e is ever late. In assembly everyone sings i joins in the demotions with g eat sincerity; but what is perhaps most err.ivkablG is the attentiveness with which they listen to the anno rcevents mad6 by Mr. Eby In Study Hall everyone works, no one whispers, no paper wads are thrown, no one is sleeping.
