Gite Blue ante white 7 it EDIT CTRIAL 5 .T A3 E. h .eu kt' Sv ?l 5 A 5' f' 3: -'S' Wvlch. -A--1 It is both with sadness and relief that We lay down the editorial pen and give THE BLUE AND WHITE to a new management. We have en- deavored to maintain the high standard set us by previous publica- tions, and we trust that our critics will not be too severe. Many changes have taken place in the manner of conducting this paper in the last year-changes of which we have not approved, but which we hope are for the best. THE BLUE AND WHITE, hitherto a Junior publication, has been given to the Assembly, thus taking from the Junior Class a much cherished asset. The reason for the change seems to have been to increase the finances of the Assembly. The Junior Class gives to the Assembly money which it needs itself, thereby adding more fuel 'to the fire. The second change was in the time of publishing. However beneficial this may prove to be from a financial standpoint, it means an additional burden for the Editorial Staff. IN HONOR or SHAKESPEARE. For some months schools, clubs and other organizations throughout the world have been commemorating the the tercentenary of William Shakes- peare's death. In our our own school, the English classes have been laying special emphasis upon the study of the life and works of the bard of Avon. Later, as a modest contribution to what is being done everywhere, in recognition of the great dramatist's place in literature, the Seniors will present at their graduation a Shakes- pearian program, which will consist of appropriate tributes to Shakes- peare, including songs and character- istic scenes from his plays. Pnrzn EssAYs. 1 Following last year's precedent, the local W. O. T. U., early in 1916, again offered three prizes for the best themes on the subject: The Value of Total Abstinence to aHuman Life. As before, the student body took practically no interest in the contest, and it was o after repeated urging on the part o the faculty, that four essays were handed in. In our last number we saw fit to write on School Spirit. We asked that all school activities be supported heartily by the pupils. This is the answer which we have received. The manner in which the student body responded in this contest is simply disgraceful. To receive so generous an offer with such indifference shows not only lack of interest but of appreciation on the part of the students. It is inexcus- able! There is plenty of literary ability in the school. The trouble is a de- plorable lack of School Spirit!
