December seventeenth we were again on the affirmative side of the ques- tion, this time at Vader, losing the decision by one vote. Students debating were: Verna Lemmon, Rose Bartell, and Edna McMaster. OAKVILLE vs. RAYMOND The last debate of the season was with Raymond at Oakville, January four- teenth. The same team debated, this time on the negative side of the ques- tion. Oakville was justly proud when she secured the judges' decision over lastt year's league champions. Mrs, Vaughan deserves much credit for this v1c ory. l ' PRACTICE DEBATE AND DISCUSSION A practice debate was held at home with the Chehalis debaters in No- vember. The. Elma debate team and coach visited us in January for a friendly discussion. E. L. M., '29. FAREWELL TO O. H. S. Old school, soon we leave your care, Our thoughts with you we leave, Regrets arise we each may share, Our follies we retrieve, Four long years we have labored on, Stood true in every cause. We'1l not forget you when we're gone, For you rings our applause. Yet all is not regret this day We go forth to wing Our minds so learned are gay, We've won the battle grim, We've fought and toiled, we've stuck and won, We glory and delight To think we've stayed to work as one And tried our bestvto light. The years of course gave hours cruel- We've had our troubles, too- But now we thank you, dear old school, With worries now we're through, The victory that is hardest gained Tastes the sweetest in the end, We soon the race of life shall run, God grant our honors won! From you we've gained a cornerstone To build a better life, The path we tread is not alone- You've shared our every strife. Our thanks can only come from deeds, We'll do our best, that's all. Good-bye, old school of happy dreams, We hear a greater call. B. L. F., '27.

TILLICUM 1927 IHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHIHHHHIHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ...L l DEBATE Although this year's debating teams won only one of the four debates, we secured four of the possible twelve judges' decisions. The debating class began with Mrs. Brazel as coach, but on account oi illness she was succeeded by Mrs. Vaughan after the first debate. The Philologian Society was reorganized by the debating students and officials were elected at the first of the school year. We were fortunate in having Rose Bartell, Eric Bjorkgren, and Sylvan Ely, three of last year's debaters, with us. New members were: Ernest Newsted, Verna Lemmon, Mildred Franz, and Edna McMaster. Speeches were composed and given by the members at the tryout before each debate. Those receiving letters were: Rose Bartell, Eric Bjorkgren, Verna Lemmon, and Edna McMaster. OAKVILLE vs. ADNA On October twenty-ninth the local debating squad composed of Rose Bar- tell, Verna Lemmon, and Eric Bjorkgren, journeyed to Adna for the first league debate. Oakville upheld the negative side of the state question: Resolved: That the benefits derived from the present state primary law justify its re- tention. Adna was victorious by receiving two of the three votes. OAKVILLE vs. ROCHESTER The second debate was held at Oakville with Rochester on November nine- teenth. Eric Bjorkgren, Verna Lemmon, and Edna McMaster upheld the af- firmative side of the question. Rochester received the unanimous decision of the three judges.
