The Egyptian High School league which was organized on the first day of the closing year of the nineteenth century, has, by the holding of annual intellectual and athletic contests, greatly increased the studentls loyalty to his own particu- lar school. ' Since the memloersh ip of the league is limited to the High Schools of Anna, Cairo, Coloden, Ma- rion, M etropolis, M ui-physboro, and Sparta., its contests are prevented from becoming inconven- iently large though they are of sufficient size to awaken the greatest enthusiasm and school spirit.

The League has two banners, one for the in- tellectual contest, the other for the athletic. They are awarded at each meet to those schools win- ning the largest number of points in the respec- tive contests. ' From the Very iirst the Sparta High School has been connected with the league, and, though in competition with schools more thoroughly equip- ped and situated in larger towns, has won among them a place of which no Spartan need be ashamed. In the intellectual contest Sparta was this fyear represented in all of the events. Her representa- tives were as follows: Frank McKelvey ..... Oration. Mamie Mclntire ,..Essay. Stella Glenn .... Declamation. Elthzi-lSmCith X Rx2...w.r 2 --a-r Brinton Steelei Moody Hausmann .... Arithmetic. Bertha Gerlach ..... Algebra. Carl Stephenson ,..... Geometry. Bertha Stephenson ...... Latin. Ada Baird. .... Spelling. The Sparta High School won first place in essay, second in Geometry, and third in Arithmetic, Latin and Spelling, which gave her a total of sixteen points and placed her third in order, for intellectual work, among the seven schools which comprise the League. We feel that the interest in this line of work is steadily increasing, and hope in the near future to be able to claim the intellectual banner. - -,::,1-1-,H r, .
