30 FRANKLIN ACADEMY HIGH SCHOOL ANNUAL deeper into it I began to have a creepy feeling, as though I were sur- rounded by a dozen snakes. I kept my flashlight turned on ahead of me. Certainly no soldier ever kept better watch than did I. At last I found myself in a large room of the cave and as I sat down to rest I saw a shadow-like form glide from a small opening in the rock. With fingers that trembled I carefully laid down my gun and began to play a soft tune on my flute. As I played the strange object which I had seen glided before me and what I saw sent a thrill of horror through me, for it was a giant cobra, and as he came within a yard of me he coiled him- self up and began to sway from side to side, in time with the music. Gazing into his piercing eyes I began to feel sleepy and just as I was about to fall asleep I dropped my flute and snatched up my shot-gun, pointed it at the reptile and fired. The noise of the gun brought me back to my senses and turning on my flashlight, which I had dropped, I saw the giant snake writhe its last. I dragged the snake from the cave and showed it to the doctor who said that if I could have killed the reptile before Burton's death he would probably have lived. Then he told me that quite often the person under the influence of another person or animal could be freed from that spell by the quick death of the in- fluential factor. The doctor also said, that the flute and shot-gun had been the means of saving my life. A LITTLE ADVICE T0 THE FRESHMEN By RALPH Honron Philosophers say that it is best to train children while they are young. That is the reason why juniors make it their business to donate a little necessary advice to the young and inexperienced freshmen. Freshmen always start their career by having several parties. If they would only look to the juniors for an example they would discover that the more experienced class does not indulge so heavily in such childish fancies. There is no need to warn the Freshies that they are likely to overwork their minds as this trouble generally comes later in their school life. As we take the responsibility of nourishing the young freshmen into a better school life we always remember the motto, Spare the rod apd spoil the child, and whenever we think they are having too many parties, etc., we put this motto into action. TO THE FRESHMEN Remember this advice forever It'll put a smile on your faceg lf you don't you will probably never Feel the glory of a junior's place.
