Secretary-Treasurer The Dad's Club is continually working to better the conditions of Sunset High School. Recently the members have done considerable work on a new water system. It is Dad's every wish that his boy or girl enjoys attending schoolg so he has made great improvements on the street, walks, and on parking space for the various school busses. He, too, has provided for the street lights at the corners and in front of the school so as to do away with the dismal effect on gala nights at Sunset. Dad never forgets our football boys. This year he bought beautiful purple and white Mackinaws for them. New blankets were also needed and Dad put his best foot forward to help the athletic committee secure them. The Dad's Club has spent considerable time working for a park and athletic field for the Sunset district.

Saint Helena Look! The gray sea in a gray mist beats upon the cliff. Through the gloom, the ghostly Water shines. The mist in streams and billows clothes the rocks in garments of mourning gray. It is a high cliff and a steep one. It reaches to the sky like a grasping ' - greedy hand. And there on the highest pinnacle is a man Sitting alone in the midst and Watching the sea. A gray face in a gray mist, his black coat melting into the darkness. He weeps gray tears for his heart is only ashes, his world a tuneless dirge. He watches the sea with sorrowful eyes and weeps. The sea, like his soul, beats upon the cliff. -JACK SHELTON A terwmfdf The sun may rise and set again, Man may fall and others reign, For I will not be here to see, The sun will set but once on me. Those I loved may love again, The dead at least can feel no pain. The things I knew may rot and fall, I will have said good-by to all. -JACK SHELTON.
