A person is as large as the thing he does, and we can s|s ak of a school in the same way, ticcnuw the pupils which make up the school are judged by their own doings, for this is the expressed side of life and is the only side that can he read. Therefore it is the only side to he spoken of hv the iwyciiologist with any degree of as su ranee. In sonic of our colleges we find the Honor system is not a success. Some may ask why this is. The only reason for it is, lawn use honesty has not heen practiced in the grades, and High School, and when they arc put on their honor they cannot realize the importance of keeping their promise. After all, can we throw away that old time-saving “Honesty is the best police.” L. E.

SANDY TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL FLAM REA I 17 YOU AND I. It is well known that 1 am always important. You were erenle«l for the express purpose of making life easy for me. 1 do not injure people's feelings, hut you delilwrately hurt just anybody you care to. My habits and manners are perfect, can not he questioned. I think your’s could Is greatly improved. You an selfish beyond a reasonable limit. I simply will not permit anyone to impose u|mui me. You an stubborn, I am firm. You an contrary, I am a little set in my ways. I may In plain, hut 1 am not horn-ely. I know that I am right, you think yourself very smart. You are two faced, I express my opinion about objectionable people. You are a hypocrite and I am—well “while in Rome do as (la Romans”. You are a flaw-picker, I tell folks their faults in a friendly way. Somehow you S4 e everyone's shortcomings and failings hut your own. I can s« c mine, but does that help you to mend yours? You feed your mind with cheap, trashy novels. I read some occasionally, just to see what kind of filthy, repulsive nulling matter is distributed among us. Harding successful? Never can Is . He is not the man for the place,—1 am talking now. please allow me to finish what 1 hepin lie is not my choice. His political party represents high tarilT, (they say protective tariff.! Such taxes rob a man who wishes to sell goods in America. A foreigner has no right to selI gomls in America? An we Americans unl« as he rail do this?

You must not, Is so self-centered as to think of yourself only—but of all. Hy this I do not mean that ull American would necessarily need to Is Democrats by party; Is a Republican or anything elm , only m e to it that the common {tropic are suited (of course the common jieople’s view is my view.) An the examples overdrawn? Are you not always a little “lisli ? Do you ever stop to consider the other fellow? Are you always as considerate as you might he? Do you ever consider “I last? Do you ever find fault with yourself? Are you in your own estimation, ever entirely wrong in your own opinion? How much better the world Would Is if we would. “Just stand aside and watch ourselves go bv.” Think of ourselves as HE instead of “1”. T. O. L. THE HONOR SYSTEM. CLASS AND SCHOOL SPIRIT. In late years the Honor System has Itecome better known among the schools, and we cannot help but ms the gtssl results that come from its influence. One may ask why do we need this Honor System? The school life is the period when the young mind is being cultured, and habits art being formed which will make up the character of the men and women of tomorrow. If these habits are those derived from dishonest work then we can expect a generation of unloyal and untrustworthy citizens. How can this Is brought a I tout in our High School? Some may say it is impossible, but with the cooperation of every student, it cailld Is made a success. A class who will stand for a member to be “cheating” his way through does not have very
