(Continued on Page 4) DEBATERS The Constitution of the United States of America (if you have all studied History) was passed on the Year of our Lord 1789. The people soon realized that they had left an important clause out of this document so it was amended. In fact, it is our 1st Article. Congress shall make no law pro- hibiting or abridging the Freedom of Speech.” To exercise this power, Join the Debating Society.” Its for a good cause. You learn to control your voice and stop talking. People do not want you always talking so why not use all your privileges and enjoy the freedom of speech given all citizens along the Shrewsbury. I.S.K. SOPHOMORE NOTES The third class meeting of the 10B Sophomores was called to or- der by Mr. Strauss, in the absence of the president, on Monday, De- cember 13, at 8:45, in Room A.

At this meeting the Juniors establish- ed a precedent by electing a Ways and Means Committee, as this com- mittee is usually not elected until the Senior year. The committee consists of: Charles Irwin George Williamson Anna Black Janet McKay A Junior dance was proposed and it was decided that the arrange- ments for the dance be made by the Ways and Means Committee and be submitted to the class for approval. On January 6, the Juniors held another busy meeting, with more than one hundred Juniors present. From the possible dates to hold the dance, February 19, was chosen. Each member of the Ways and Means Committee became chair- man of a sub-committee to provide for the various details of the dance. A special meeting was held Janu- ary 13 for further discussion of the dance. The President told the class that the dance could not be held on the chosen date. Edward Leddy, (Continued on Page 3)

From the works of thirty-eight American and English authors some painstaking searcher chose these lines, each from different author, but together making a remarkable set of verses, packed with good advice. We quote: Why all this toil for triumphs of an hour?—Young. Life’s a short summer, man a flower.—Dr. Johnson. By turns we catch the vital breath and die-—Pope. The cradle and the tomb, alas, so ni gh!—P rior. To be is better far than not to be. —Sewell. Though all men’s lives may seem a tragedy.—Spenser. But light cares spread when mighty griefs are dumb.—Daniel. The bottom is but shallow whence they come.—Sir Walter Scott. Your fate is but the common fate of all.—Longfellow. Unmingled joys to no man here bef all.—Southwell. Nature to each allots its proper sphere.—Congreve. Fortune makes folly her peculiar care.—Churchill. Custom does not often reason over- rule.—Rochester- And throw a cruel sunshine on a fool.—Armstrong. Live well, how long or short permit to heaven.—Milton. They who forgive most shall be most forgiven.—Bailey. Sin may be clasped so close we cannot see its face.—Trench. Wile intercourse where virtue has no place.—Somerville. Then keep each passion down how- ever dear.—Thomson. Thou pendulum betwixt a smile and tear.—Byron. Her sensual snares let faithless pleasure lay.—Smollett. With craft and skill to ruin and betray.—Crabbe- Soar not too high to fall, but stoop to rise.—Massinger. We masters grow of all that we despise.—Cowley. Oh, then renounce that impious self-esteem!—Beattie. Riches have wings, and grandeur is a dre am.—Cowper. Think not ambition wise because ’tis brave.—Sir Wm. Davenant. The paths of glory lead but to the grave.—Gray. What is ambition? ’Tis a glorious cheat.—Willis. Only destructive to the brave and gre at.—Addison. What s all the gaudy glitter of a crown?—Dryden. The way of bliss lies not on beds of down-----Francis Quarles. How long we live not years but ac- tions tell.—Watkins. That man lives twice who lives the first life well.—Herrick. Make then, while yet you may, your God your friend.—William Mason. Whom Christians worship yet not comprehend.—Hill. The trust that’s given guard and to yourself be just.—Dana. jFor live we how we can, yet die we must.—Shakespeare. THE POETS’ CORNER SENIORS What a grand and glorious feeling Is that feeling we Seniors demand From three insignificant classes, kneeling To us, to do as we elders command. After faithfully striving through three long years We have reached the highest goal. And as the “parting of the ways’’ nears We stand together as on the time rolls. We think ourselves worthy our high -sounding name And consider our years well spent. But many are those who dispute our claim However well it is meant. Gladys Norman ’27. MY PAINTING I need, in life as well as in my painting. To do it all with real hard work and not a bit of feigning. To make my outline and fill the empty spaces, And scatter it throughout with different faces. As every day I paint the picture of my life, I shall try, not to make one mis- take in care or strife So that to erase will not be for me. But to have my canvas come back as perfect as can be. Vera Norcross, ’27. SOPHOMORES Sophomores did I hear you say? Yes I heard of them one day, A foolish little simple crowd— Sometimes too soft, sometimes too loud. You can hear their silly talk No matter where you go to walk. They are always underfoot, They never stay where they are put; Reason doesn’t grow the way it should. But, of course, in a sophomore that’s understood. T. A. P.
