Rulfcur. Murchison. and Bastian Bros.. came to the school and showed the Student Council samples of rings. The Student Council had each company draw up ll design for ll school ring. An assembly was hell and the rings were shown to the schcol. All pupils then voted on the ring. but they have yet to decide which design to select. First row: Loretta Ross, joan Driggers.

The School Band. under the direction of Mr. Fred Sullivan, has increased greatly in size this year. At present there are about fifty members who play regularly with this organization. Although many of the band instruments were damaged by water in the fire this winter, everything is back to normal, and we are expecting to hear them all being played in our Pops Concerti' this spring.

rmidfice ay AMERICAN LEGION PRIZE ESSAY On November 11, 1918, an armistice was signed by the great nations, bringing to a close the long and heartbreaking World WVar I. There was con- siderable amount of joy among us-the American people. There were tears shed by the more unfortunate who would not be able to see our loved ones return. But this was yet a temporary peace. For soon after came World War II, which threw our peace-living nation into a war as chaotic as the Hrst. America stood behind its servicemen. The defence plants never were short of help, women joined the services to aid their country, and everyone boosted the morale of these men with letters of encouragement from home. This war came to an end also, and the United States emerged Victorious. With the outbreak of the Korean War, Americans repeated their war efforts, and this war ended with a truce. Yes, America is, in essence, a peace-loving nation, but a nation that is willing to sacrifice all for the rights of men over state, of God over men. Let us then look upon Armistice Day as a day of thanksgiving, a day of humble prayer, that we dwell in a land that has proved time and again that it is willing to fight for human equality so that some day this world will contain an everlasting peace and brotherhood of nations.
