R. L. H. S. l 'Ns This is it! Our week-day address in a formal pose makes a very nice appearance. A modern impressive building and a well-kept wn with beautiful evergreen trees give an at- active exterior appearance to our school. In inter the snow-crowned shrubs, spelling out in eir shapes R. L. H. S., and a picturesque view the grounds, and in summer the blooming li- cs and roses fill the atmosphere with a sweet roma. Towering high above all this, Old lory ripples in the cool breeze from its place f honor. t Enter to Learn. As one enters the high chool building by the upper door, more com- only dubbed the girls' door, he passes under is motto. Inside, on the upper floor, the first lace of interest one sees is the gym-the cene of many happy hours. Groans, moans, and ther outbursts of agony involuntarily ensue the reath-taking gymnastics which are bound to uild us up or break us down. Beside the gym another large room, the auditorium. Monday all the Frankies and Dinahs come to tune their vocal chords to prepare to sing various occasions. For the next three days of week, noises and music from all kinds of in- saturate the surrounding rooms and Then, on Fridays, assemblies invade the lust a short distance around the cor- from here is the office, the hub of the school. the year most of us for many different become well acquainted with this busy nook. Turn another corner and there is the library, the favorite room for many of us. If one cares to enter into a small room adjoining the library he will find the Hyson room. Two small offices leading off from it are the haunts of our dean of girls and our librarian. On the lower floor is found the paradise of many of the boys-the shop. Many hours are spent here soldering, hammering, sawing-mak- ing anything from ash trays to bookcases. From the home economics room comes many delicious odors of mellow cream-puffs and other delightful goodies which the future homemakers around Red Lion cook up. Also from its portals come females dressed in the latest fashions created by themselves. Another room which is responsible for many of the odors around the school is the chemistry lab. However, these odors are not quite so tantalizing. The hot spot of the school is the boiler room. From here the heat is piped to every little corner of the school to warm our shivering bodies after those cold morning walks. Of course there are many classrooms-eighteen in fact. They consist of desks, telephone, black- boards, chalk dust, and all the other constituents of a normal schoolroom. The major part of our time is spent within their walls. Going down the hall past the office, one leaves through the boys' door. Inscribed above this door is the motto, Leave to Serve -one which every graduate keeps in mind after he leaves high school. 9

Uncommonly empty, the park across the street seems to be quietly waiting for the noise and activity that announces spring. One of the many gray squirrels who visit our campus prepares for the winter with the aid of an anonymous friend. Another shot of our town, this time, the East End. Unfortunately no picture can show the many features which make Red Lion such a pleasant home. Business as usual in the center of our modest hamlet. None ot the industries are shown, but some of the shops and stores put in their appearance.
