30 ' THE CLARION it pays to advertise in the Clarion. It has caused the high school students to trade more closely With our ad- vertisers. :In closing the years work the manager of the Clarion wishes to thank both the business men and the students for their hearty support and co-operation. Next year another contest will be inaugurated, but on a different plan, Which will be made known later. Mr. Paulus is a quiet but hard work- ing student and deserves the prize which he has won. It entitles him to any of the 150 courses in the big cor- responding school, and is well worth the time spent in earning it. Mr- Paulus is to be congratulated on his success. $061323.

A PROBLEM TO SOLVE. The angle of wit and humor being determined as also the distance be- tween the legs of a funnicism, solVe: the following: What is the square of a funnicism, provided that by the nebular hypothe- sis a rightly angled humoroid be- erected on the plane of a Witticism? The answer to be limited according to a decreasing variable, so that. When the result is found, there will still be one-half of it to be ascer; tained. The solution: Proposition No. 1, coralary; No. 2, Let A B C be the rightly angled humoroid erected upon and D S the plane of Witticism. T0 iind the square of a funnicism. Proof: A humoroid is a pimple upon the neck of a Witticism, and commonly used for a collar button, but as Witticism is a plane the hum- orid must be constructed on the plane. The plane of Witticism being very broad we must construct it as a square having for each side the length funnicism. Then as the plane is a square and each side is fun- nicism, the area of the plane of wit- ticism must be the square of fun- nicism. Therefore the square of funnicism is equal to the planeof Witticism or treducingi funnicism equals the plane of Witticism equals the square of funnicism. Q E D.

The association is bound to be a popular place next fall and Winter, because the 400 members now enrolled in- tend to make it a lively place every day in the week. The new physical director Will be here about Septem- ber 1 and he is a man up to date in his line of work, having been con- nected with the physical department of one of the biggest institutions in Regular classes to meet the needs of the different members will be organized early in the fall, there will be a business menis class, young menis class, intermediate class, junior class, ladiesl class, girlsl class, and high school class. You certainly can find the work that suits you in one of the above classes. The swim- ming pool which will be ready by September 1 is another matter which should receive your share of patron- age. Swimming classes for men, boys, women and girls will be organ- ized in September. This one feature of the association is well worth the price of a full years membership. As an exercise swimming ranks among the best; as a pleasure, those who swim speak of it in highest terms, as an art, it has saved many a life, not only the life of the swimmer, but those who swim have often saved other lives. The night school will be better than ever in the history of the Salem, Y. M. C. A. Classes in arithmetic, grammar, read- ing, spelling, penmanship, business correspondence, bookkeeping, card writing, architectural drawing, Span- ish, music and typewriting. You cant afford to miss all the good things. You can well afford the eX- penses. The membership Will be higher When the pool is completed, but not enough to keep out the many who have already sent in their names. Salem ladies Will be given a regular night in the pool and a good many have said that they will join the swimming class. A good many ladles already have paid their $10 toward the pool and are thus en- titled to the class privileges for one year. . Call on the secretary for I'ur- ther information. W'ILL INCREASE RATES. TheClarion advertising rates will be ralsed next year. Although it seems that we are getting a fair rate for our space at present, we have found it necessary to increase our price to carry out our future plans: The reason for the increase is this: At the present scale we have to get just as many pages of advertising as we publish in litera- ture. It looks like our magazine is nothing but an advertisement. We want to run more reading matter, and in order to do it we must have more money. The increase will be slight, only one dollar more to the page, but when it comes to adding a dollar .to every page of advertise- ments it will mean quite a bit to us. It is not thought the business men will object seriously to this arrange- ment, for they all get their moneyis worth for what they put in. The Clarion is one of the best high school publications in the country today. We receive favorable comment from all of our exchanges and we feel that we are delivering the goods. But occasionally we get a shot from some paper that tells us our adver- tising is too conspicuous. We want our ads to show up well, but they take prominence over the rest of the paper. We want to put out a bigger and better paper than ever the com- ing season and increase our subscrip- tion list. We can only do this by raising our rates. ROBERT PAULUS THE WINNER. The International Correspondence School contest, which was inaugurat- ed by the Clarion last fall, is over. It has proven several valuable things. It has shown the business men that
