One OF the most interesting debates
OF this year was given yesterday morn
ing, when eight members of the junior
class debated the question, Resolved,
That the Best Interests of Our Country
Demand the Present Administration Re
main in Power" The affirmative was
argued by George Sweet, Leader; Kate
Leary, James Hagan and Kate Schroe-
der, and the negative by Joseph Gasser,
leader; Annie Harrington, Anna Quello
and Herbert Morris. The speeches of the
leaders were particularly interesting,
each being fifteen minutes long, and
with humor. The arguments
Of the Others were shorter, but all we're
given in an interesting manner, and to
the point. Eight judges had been ap-
pointed by Miss SanborD, and, when
their decision was called for, seven voted
or the negative and one for the afiirma-
i've, but when the question was put to
he high school, forty lone voted for the
and thirty nine for the mega
i've. This debate shows that we have
ew politicians IN our high school, who
will be valuable aids to ourcountry when
