W. Kerr Don't Neglect Them Yes, there may be Operetta practice, Junior Play practice, or a basketball game, but don't forget, there are also those lessons to be done for tomorrow. At this time of the year there are so many school, activities that we have a tendency to forget about our studies. For some reason or other, pupil3 seem to have the idea that just because they attended a basketball game or some other school activity last night, they will be excused from doing their lessons for today. I hope they will soon realize that if they wish to participate in outside activities, they must also keep up their regular studies. This year the mid-year exemination grades were considerable lower than other years. The only reason I can see is lack of studying on the part of the pupil. Take part in extra curriculer activities, of course, they are your recreation, but your studies are your work--don't neglect them! Is ItThL School-Or You? Have you noticed how large the absentee lists have been lately? The worst part is that only about one-fourth of those absent can offer a legal excuse. There are far too many pupils making a habit of coming to school when they feel like it, and staying home when they feel like it. If they feel they would rather sleep some morning, they do so then come to school in the afternoon, if they get awake. Perhaps some of them think they are putting it over on the school but it is only themselves they are harming. Just think it over sometime.

14 THE BLUE AND WHITE This year Ruth is just as outstanding as she has been other years. She was elected Class Treasurer. She will have one of the main parts in the Operetta, In an Old Kentucky Garden . To one of the outstanding pupils of N. H. 5., here's luck. Mey you continue to be outstanding all through your life, Ruth. im Newport, Pa. January 12, 1938 Mr. Oooffrey Chaucer 14th Century, A. D. Dear Jeff, This is just a note from one of your readers in the twentieth century. On January 23, 1921 Mr. and Mrs. John A. Heisey announced tha birth ofa daughter, Ruth. Ruth spent the first one and one-half years of her school career in the East Newport School. In the winter of 1927, she entered the Newport Elementary School, where she became a member of the class of '38. In the second grade she took part in the school Grade Operetta. Until she entered the seventh grade, she participated in plays and poem contests. In the eighth grade Ruth played class basketball. At the end of this year she decided to take the Academic course. A brief review of Scooter's High School career shows that she was active all the time. She tried out for basketball in her Freshman year. I wouldn't exactly call myself one of your fans but I believe you've got something there, in your newspaper Canterbury Tales , if you know what I mean. That society column and especially your prologue to the trip is interesting. I believe that I would hove told the managing editor a thing or two if he would have sent me out on such an assignment. I bet that was just as tough to cover as the Sino-Japanese War would be today. But, still it might have been an interesting trip for you, but I'm sure it wouldn't appeal to me. I'll bet the Wife of Bath reminded I you of your mother-in-law. I'll have to close now, ao I can study some more about you for my English test. So-------so long, till English class. Sincerely yours In her Sophomore ye?r, Ruth was Home Room Vico Chairman. She played basketball, was a cheerleader and a member of The Thespians. In her Junior year, she was elected Class Secretary. Sho took part in the Operetta, basketball, and cheerleadinft Ruth was again a member of The Thespians and was a reporter of The Blue And White Staff. P. S. I know just how you felt when you wrote your Complaint to an Empty Purse .
