12 TUE ROU I) TA BT.E he was a boy today what he would do! He goes on moaning over the easy time boys have today and success being too easy for them to obtain. Sounds good, doesn't it fellows? But, remember, for every position you may get in later life there will be more people trying to get that job of yours, and it will depend upon your ability to hold it. So why not prepare yourself now for the problems of later life. Get all the education possible and regulate your conduct in school so as to cause no trouble bo your teachers. The prisons are filled with people who do not care for the law. You should take the word of your teacher as law, because there will be no teacher spru- ring you along in the straight and nar- row path when you grow older. And remember, “Success Reflects Effort. -------o------ JUNIOR CLASS NOTES J—Jovial U—United N—'Notorious I—Industrious 0—Original R—Reliable C—Correct L—Loyal A—Attractive S—Sympathetic S—Sincere The Class of ’25 Take note.

The treasurers report has been re- ceived. Keep up that spirit Juniors and pay your dues. -------o-------- SOPHOMORE CLASS NOTES On Thursday, October 16th, a spe- cial Sophomore Class meeting wras held for the purpose of selecting a class motto. Numerous mottoes were sug- gested but despite all efforts none seemed to please the majority of the class. Finally, it was decided to leave the matter to a committee of five. The committee considered the two following mottoes as the best of the lot, and of equal merit. To Know is to Conquer Deeds Not Words On Thursday, Nov. 1st, a regular meeting was held in the Junior High school auditorium. The question of mottoes was again resumed and the class chose the motto. To Know is to Conquer. Notice bo all I Oth grade pupils! Do you know that it is necessary for you to pay your dues before you can graduate from this High School? Why not come to class meetings regularly and take a hand in the business? We want the Sophomores with the Blue and Gray at their head bo be the banner class of R. B. H. S. On Thursday, Dec. 6th, a class meet- ing was held in the Junior H. S. audi- torium. The first thing discussed at this meeting was some proposed amendment to the Class Constitution. According to the present Constitution an amendment must be brought up at

TILE RO U XI) T A BEE 11 ttoTeS SENIOR CLASS NOTES Since the custom of going to Wash- ington for a graduation trip has been inaugurated every class has devoted a great amount of energy and time in raising money to take the trip. Dances, cake and candy sales., etc., are all held for one purpose, namely, to make money. The officers of the Class can p.an dances, and cake sales, etc., but if they are not backed by the entire Senior Class, what will it avail them? Everything that has borne SUCCESS in the school or class has been so borne by the support of all,—not' a few! Therefore, realizing this fact, we, the members of the Senior Class, should give as much support as possible to our Class. If you can answer all of the following questions in an affirmative statement you are backing your class; if you cannot answer them in an affir- mative statement you are not backing your class. 1. Are your dues paid up? 2. Did you give or buy a cake at the last cake sale? 3. Did you buy tickets for the Christmas Dance? 4. Are you a supporter of the candy department? The class constitution was adopted at a recent meeting. A committee was appointed to select a class motto and flower. At a later meeting this com- mittee reported and the Class chose “Rambler Rose” as the flower, and “Success Reflects Effort” as the motto. There will be more dances in the future and the proceeds will go to- wards financing that Washington trip! So while we are enjoying ourselves, we are at the same time providing money for future enjoyment. The candy sales committee reports that the profits are rolling in fast. Cul- tivate a sweet tooth and help the class at the same time! “Take advantages of the opportun- ities that life offers.” This has been the advice given to many a student, and is undoubtedly good. The old fellow with the crop of hay on his chin and barren land on her head, will tell you all his troubles. He will tell you of the hard times he had when he was a boy and how he never had a chance to succeed, and that if

THE ROUND TABLE 13 one meeting and voted upon at the next. The proposed amendments deal with duties and powers of officers, the number of members needed to consti- tute a quorum, and a new method of election. Next the subject of class pennant was brought up. According to Mr. Gilland the class cannot spend more than $25 for this. Therefore, a com- mittee was appointed to write to the leading sporting goods stores of the country. It was advised by the president that all the members of the class should think something about the selection of a class flower before the next meeting. As there was no further business to bring up, the meeting was adjourned. Now that our school year is well on its way, let us give attention to a quite important thought. Most of the pupils who graduate from High School expect to enter some higher institution of learning. The feeling will not 'be a pleasant one when they find out at some time in their senior year that they did not take up a certain subject which is required by the college they intend to enter. This mistake cannot' be easily rectified. Therefore, Sophomores, you should think about the entrance requirements of the college you wish to enter. Cat- alogues should be secured, a selection made, and the course moulded accord- ingly. The idea is to be prepared, and this advice can well be given, “Act early and avoid disappointment.” Red Bank 32; Freehold 0 Friday afternoon the Freehold squad arrived here with high hopes of vic- tory; but their hopes were at once shattered for we easily defeated them 32-0. First quarter; R. B. kicked off and Freehold made no gain. On the next play Freehold came through with a slight gain but had to resort to a kick which Branin received. Hartman and Branin made good gains, each run re- sulting in a first down. Lartaud made another first down on two center plunges. Branin made another first down and on the next play R. B. crossed the line. R. B. failed to get the extra point. R. B. kicked off to Freehold’s right half back, who was downed in his tracks by Taylor. Here the first quarter ended; the score 6-0 in our favor. Second quarter: Freehold Lost the ball on downs and after a few small gains Branin punted and Freehold fumbled, Taylor recovering for R. B. Lartaud made a seven yard gain through center and Hartman did like- wise. On the next play, Branin scored on a beautiful end run. Hartman drop-
