S, many honors. The shelf of trophies in the office is symbolical of achievements won in drama'ic and athletics, over a period of years. At the present time, we, as students know where our school ranks in these two fields of activity, ut it is a question .as to whether wo knew the scholastic standing of our school. Every spring, members of the Senior Class go to New Bloomfield to con ete with other schools of Pe: ry County for scholarship honors. For the oast two years that recognition ‘nas been received by a member of Newport High School. In the year 1936 our pupils ranked highest in every subject including English, Social Studies, Science, Foreign Languages, and Mathematics. These facts.show us, then,-whore our school stands scholastically,and along with hhe knowledge of our athletic and dramatic ability, we should remember the most important achieve ment which can be obtained by a school------scholarship, He who never does more Than he gets paid for. Never gets paid for More than he dees. Bok

THE BLUE16 WHITE ! lLF -R£LIANCE SMILES ihousanus of lives are |being ruineu today by a certain group cf unknowingly •selfish parents. These par-•ents like to feel that their •children must depend upon |them; they like that feeling :of importance. I don't be-:lieve that they realize that •children in order to grow to •be great men and women must |be gradually untied from the : apron strings and given iresponsibilities. By not do ling this the parent destroys ;the child's confidence and loriginalit ; in fact,it keep; :the child from even having :these traits. It's not only •destructive to the child out •to the family as a whole. A. Washington was a friend : iof the great humorist, and says: •that Kark Twain once sat in the; • smoking room of a steamer and : :listened for an hour to the re-: •markable stories. Boys , he drawled, These • •feats of yours recall an ad- | •venture of my own in Hannibal.: |There was a fire one night and : told man Hankinscn got caught • •in the fourth story of the •burning house. None of the : jladders was long enough to ;reach him. The crowd stared at-•one another with awed eyes.NC- | :body could think of anything to: •do. Then all of a sudden,boys,: •an idea occurred to me. Fetch • |me a rope , I yelled . As these children grow, : nd their parents die, they •find themselves in a strange jstate of affairs, for others :c re not as ea er as their •parents were to bear their •responsibilities. These peo- • ple, of whom there are a •very great many, in oruer to •live and bacause of this com-jmon interest seek interaepen-•dence and security by join-ling unions, political parties |etc. They re afraia to face •the world, to be self-reliant •so the.) seek protection from • the world in this way. Anyone who is self- re- •liant and a non-conformist is• Jdestined to rise above the | :cc non herd and to be a great: • Somebody fetched a rope and; |with great presence of mind, I | ■flung the end of it up to the | •old man. Tie her around your I .’waist, I yelled. Old man Hank-; iinson did so, and I pulled him j down. IS IT YOU? Now, teacher, I don't under- • s tand Why I failed this test. You did not study, pupil dear-Why bother to protest? | a person has to be a pet To get good marks from you, ;. In the future study harder I'm tired of 'ballyhoo'. : man.
