Our High School is one of the best in this part of the state, and is fully accredited by the North Central Association. We offer four different courses of study: College Preparatory, Scientific, Manual Training, and Home Economics. Freshmen are required to take English I and Algebra I. Four subjects are customary, and the other two are selected from the following: General Science, Latin I, Ancient History, Manual Training I, and Domestic Science I. It has always been dominant here that the upper classmen and faculty take personal interest in the Freshmen. Elsewhere in this issue you will find a write-up of the faculty giving the qualifications of each member to teach those subjects. Toulon Township High School is ideally situated and built for social events of this kind. It has many advantages which are a great help in bringing a crowd. The pavement borders two sides of the building, and there is pavement from the school to the business district. This makes it easy to reach the school if the roads are bad. The gym is a very good place for social affairs, a play or anything of that kind, and it has a very good dance floor. There are also many rooms in the building which are convenient for carnival stunts or booths of any kind. —Robert Griffith. So nigh is grandeur to our dust, So near is God to man, When duty whispers low, “Thou must,” The youth replies, “I can.” —Emerson.

4 March, Nineteen Thirty TEN COMMANDMENTS. How would you like to have Ten Commandments for school children? We hear of the Ten Commandments of the Bible and Ten Commandments for husbands and wives, so why not for school children ? If we did have our own Ten Commandments, would you obey them or would you disobey them as you do the traffic cop rules which should be regarded as commandments? Czechoslovakia has adopted the “Ten Commandments for School Children.” They may be seen on the bulletin boards in many schools. They are as follows: 1. Love your schoolmates; they will be your companions for life and work. 2. Love instruction, the food of the spirit. Be thankful to your teachers as to your own parents. 3. Consecrate every day by one good useful deed of kindness. 4. Honor all honest people; esteem men but humble yourself before no man. 5. Suppress all hatred and beware of insulting your neighbor; be not revengeful but protect your own rights and those of others. Love justice and bear pain and misfortune courageously. 6. Observe carefully and reflect well in order to get at truth. Deceive not yourself or others and beware of lying, for lies destroy the heart, the soul, and the character. 7. Consider that animals also have a right to your sympathy and do not harm or tease them. 8. Think that all good is the result of work; he who enjoys without working is stealing bread from the mouth of the worker. 9. Call no man a patriot who hates or has contempt for other nations, or who wishes and approves wars. War is the remains of barbarism. 10. Love your country and your nation but be co-workers in the high task that shall make all men live together like brothers in peace and happiness. —Eleanor Rist. “OUR SCHOOL.” Toulon High is a wonderful school, For work and lots of fun, Then we get into work as deep as a pool, And find our grades are none. We then quiet down and do our best To learn the things we should know; And our teachers with patience always suggest, “Please make good grades instead of so low.” A short time will end our school days, Only leave us with thoughts of the past; Each of us will go on our way With success as our goai to the last. —Anice Carlisle.
