We have every reason for stating that it was one of the happiest and most prosperous years that the Santa Ana High School and THE ARIEL have ever witnessed. Not only has the magazine been published quite regularly, but both students and faculty have taken an interest in it. We feel also, that despite general comment, a more lively school spirit was manifest this year than has been shown for several years past. Students have taken more of an interest in school affairs away from home and in almost every case a fairly representative crowd has accompanied the teams. But students, the spirit is not yet what it ought to be. There have been de- ticiencies in several funds. Do not let this happen next year. Support your teams at home and abroad to such an extent that other schools may point to the great school spirit displayed by the Santa Ana High School.

THE TRIALS OF A STRONG MAN UA A- an VERYTHING seemed especially fragile. He WNW started up the stairs. Zip! The stair-casing gave way with a splintering crash beneath his Q step. He grasped the door knob and the door was abruptly yanked off its hinges. t Meeting a few of the fellows, he shook hands, but they howled with pain and nursed their crushed fingers. In the morning he had gone out to do his duty by the cow over at Murphy's, but carelessly brushing against her, the cow toppled over and roll against the barn. When he stopped to pull an orangeg the whole tree came up by the roots and fell over on him. ' What was the trouble? He was puzzled at his suddenly acquired Herculean strength which was proving so disastrous. He shut the window. Bang! Every pane of glass was shattered into atoms. He mounted his bicycle. Immediately the wheel was reduced to a mass of wreckage beneath his weight. He went out on the college campus to play ball with the fellowsg but he threw the ball so far that nobody could find it, so they put him out of the game. When he took hold of the railing to get aboard the street car, the car was pulled off the track, delaying traffic for hours. What was he to do? If he should accidentally brush against a down-town skyscraper, it mighti--- Just then the alarm went off in Jack Fenton's room of the Weston College dormitory. He awoke, stretched himself and said aloud, What a beast of a dream.

EDITORIALS . 25 ' The school has a right to be proud of her athletic ac- complishments during the past term. We are especially to be congratulated upon the Girls' Basketball Team which won the interscholastic championship of Southern California. Our Track Team has done excellent work, winning the championship of Orange County and We are proud of them. Our Baseball Team also shows itself capable of successfully coping with the most sturdy foe, and although deprived of the county championship. on a technic- ality, yet We expect great things of it. We attribute our successes in athletics to the untiring efforts of Coach Noble and to the con- sistent work of the individual players on the various teams. Keep up the good work S. A. H. S. In debating and oratory also we have been successful. Our team fought its way down to the finals in the Southern Califor- nia Debating League, which We lost to Long Beach on May 29. Although the team proper was composed of but four members, the practice afforded in try-outs and practice debates has given invaluable experience to many. For our successes we have to thank the members of the faculty and especially Mr. Tucker, for their aid. We may well be proud of the showing made by our representatives in the Orange County Forensic Contest, and may cherish for a whole year the team medal which they have Won. We sincerely hope that success will favor us in the future the same as it has in the past. The interest displayed in the literary clubs, shows that the Whole school is taking a part in this work, as do also the excellent orations which are each day delivered by members of the senior class. This latter affords excellent practice to the students and should be continued in the future. There is but one thing that the school regrets: The loss of the Senior A Class of thirty-eight. This class was the leader in all school activities and its members were among the representatives of the school in debating, oratory and athletics. But, although their presence will be missed, others will take their places and lead the school on to success. The entire school joins in wishing the members of this class of 708 good fortune on the journey of life, which they are about to begin. In preparing this publication we wish to heartily thank the members of the English department for the valuable assistance they have given us, as well as all students who have aided us and
