Its first issue was published April 5, 1916, and since then has been continually growing and improving. The Southerner is a member of Quill and Scroll, national honorary society for high school journalists, the Central Interscholastic Press Association, and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. It placed second in the national contest conducted by the latter organization in the spring of 1927. The Southerner's pride is its editorial page which won first place in the state contest in the fall of 1926. Judging from the comment of numerous competent critics, the staff believes its greatest achievement of the year has been the production of the best editorial page anywhere in scholastic journalism. Through the efforts of Miss Helen K. Blaisdell, faculty adviser, has been built up a well-defined organization of the editorial staff, and emphasis has been placed on certain specific objectives.

RI; PR ESFNTATIV H BOYS This learned from the shadow of the tree Which to ami fro did sway upon the wall: Our influence, our shadow selves, may fall Where we may never be. —Anonymous. INFLUENCE is the power that comes from character. It is invisible hut it is effective. In the world of business, art, and society, a strong man’s influence is a power. It keeps other people and other things moving, and at the same time wins recognition, admiration, and appreciation. As influence is felt in the world at large, so is it felt in school life. It is based upon such characteristics as honesty, sincerity, loyalty, co-operation, and straight-forwardness. The student who possesses these qualities may become a star in his chosen field of work, hut he also becomes a leader in many fields. As a Freshman the student cannot hurst into glory and prominence at once; but he can start out on the road and keep going steadily. The Sophomore has more opportunities; and if he makes the most of them, his Junior year will be a happy journey. But the first three years are stepping stones to Senior stardom. On January 17, the “Most Representative Boy Students” were elected by the classes at the same time that the “Most Representative Girl Students” were chosen. The standards for judgment for the hoys were the same as those for the girls: scholarship, school spirit, friendliness, support of activities, co-operation, character, and leadership. The boys who were elected to represent their classes are some of South’s finest students. The teachers describe them as sincere, loyal, democratic gentlemen. These boys are: Richard Carlstrom, January '27 Hiram Johnson, June ’21 Charles Curtis, Junior William Anderson, Sophomore Ralph Frit ell, Freshman Page Fifteen
