THE ROUND TABLE ii ing them. Too late! As they were about to leap off, the arch of the tunnel struck them both insensible, throwing them to the ground. David hastily getting off ran to them, where he found one stretched out with his back across the rail of a siding and the other lying on the ground. Seeing them thus he ran for aid. He met the chief and his men who by this time had guessed the prisoners’ escape, and had followed in the car. Quickly in- forming them of the circumstances he left the posse there while he and the chauffeur rushed for a doctor. The doctor was quickly brought. He ex- amined the criminals, and found that both had little chance, if any, of living, for one had broken his back and the other had fractured his skull. The criminals were taken to a hos- pital but a higher justice than man’s had called them to a final reckoning. Needless to say David was the hero of the occasion and he answered modestly to the hundred and one questions that were poured at him. He earned the personal commendation of the editor and also a reward of $10,000 which had just' been issued for the joint cap- ture of the criminals. But he was hap- piest of all when Mabel, blushingly praised him for his good work. A look at Mabel’s left hand will show why David is the happiest fellow alive. —D.

HI-Y NOTES Last year, a club known as the Hi-Y was organized among some of the boys of the Senior High School. This organ- ization is a branch of the Y. M. C. A., and has for it's slogan, “Clean Living, Clean Speech, Clean Sport, and Clean Scholarship.’ Its purpose is to raise, in a quiet way, the moral standard of the student body. Several meetings and several sporting contests, such as swimming races in the pool at Asbury Park, were held. This year the first meeting was held in the Globe hotel where a fine ban- quet was enjoyed. Among those pres- ent were Mr. and Mrs. Seiber, Mr. and Mrs. Lovett, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Smith, and Dr. and Mrs. Hausman. Following the dinner, which was well seasoned by songs and cheers, Mr. Seiber expressed his thanks for having in the High School a club which stood for a higher morale of the students. Dr. Hausman’s address on “The Fundamentals of Suc- cess,’’ was of great interest and value to all. A review of the work of the past year and the prospects for the future, given by Mr. Joseph C. Smith, leader of the group, was followed by adjourn- ment. The club stands for Christian Char- acter. Surely every boy who wants to stand for the best things should join the club and thus lend his support to the elimination of the worst, and the cultivation of the best, in school and community life.

THE ROUND TABLE 13 necessary to conduct them in a style befitting the Class of 1923. Before re- ceiving a diploma the prospective grad- uate must have fulfilled all his financial obligations to his class, so if you expect to receive a sheepskin you may better insure your graduation with a clean record by paying your dues now. To pay your dues promptly is not only business-like, but it is your duty to your class. PAY UP NOW. --------o------- JUNIOR NOTES Early in the term a meeting of the Junior A class was called and held in Mrs. Kerr’s room. The class president. Miss Matthews, presided. The members of the Junior B class were also invited to attend this meeting. During the course of the meeting it was decided that these two classes be con- sidered in the future, as one. The officers and colors of the Junior A class are to be retained. The class pennant has been ordered and it is to be received soon. Misses Margaret Morris, Marion Courvoisier and Virginia Sandt were appointed to serve on the Ring Com- mittee. Later on this committee (presented for approval several rings. The rings were very well selected, therefore much credit is due the committee for display- ing such good taste. It is hoped that the rings will soon be received and all Juniors know that envy will cause many eyes to turn green. Through this paper the members of the Junior Class desire to express their thanks to the members of the Com- mittee on Rings for their very efficient and highly successful efforts in securing the Class Ring. 10 A CLASS NOTES The First Class meeting of the 10 A’s, for this term, was held, Monday, September 11,1922.
