Is 1t Fair /?

In this life of uncertainty when one
undertakes to manage any organization
his insight to the rise and fall of the
financial tide becomes greatly enlarged.
A grievance occurring in this tide of
events to an individual must be borne
BY the individual himself, but when it
so happens in dealing with the general
public that a grievance exists it becomes
necessary to present it to the people for
their wise and deliberate consideration.
| am told that at a recent foot ball
game played between our High School
and the team of a neighboring town,
from an attendance OF overnight hundred
people the total receipts amounted to
ten dollars and twenty four cents, an
average of less than two cents to the
person. This amount to some may seem
large in itself, but when we preceive
the bill of expense melted out and reach
ing towards the twenty dollar mark we
cease to think this sum sufficient and
turn in a sympathetic mood to the team
aspiring for athletic supremacy.
Does this seem just? Is it fair to a
team, who through all kinds OF weather
battlin~ against the opposing elements,
turns out to practice, ~endeavoring by
their hard honest efforts to reflect
credit upon their town and upon their
school? Is it fair that when returning
from the field of conquest they should
find their noble efforts darkened by an
~overhanging cloud of debt?
Public sentiment seems to clamor
with one voice for an inclosed athletic
field. But do they encourage one to
back such a procedure when they refuse
to pay two cents a piece in order to see
an athletic contest?
1 think, to be somewhat prophetic, If
the town were blessed with such a field,
unless 'twere fenced with barbwire, on
occasions OF special attractions we would
find most of our good citizens perched
on the topmost limbs of some nearby
tree thus the profits would be high
indeed.
Never in the history of our High
School has a team so contracted the
idea that "Praclice makes the Master"
never has a team by the proper spirit
shown forth in more resplendent style
than the present High School football
team.
Should such a team be supported?
Should the season pass by without n
sign of appreciation shown them? No,
no, every good citizen believes in just
praise and help for a good cause. and [
am fully convinced that this matter
need only be brought once before the
public eye to receive sufficient and
speedy amends.
The man who hates to help a little,
places himself in a sphere of isolation at
the mention of which the human heart
shudders, but he who willingly gives
the helping hand implants somewhere
the seed that lives and withers.
