| In the beginning of the term

were added to the Adelphian roll,
new officers were also elected.

are chosen once in three months,
a plan adopted from our elders,
the Philos. What would we do

Programs of short form were
given again this year. They
were pleasing as well as instruc-

The Adelphians took part, to

Such death dealing calamity cam
not be inflicted upon an enlight-
ened world.
Let US hope the thunder of the
battle has spealed it's last dull
note. The dim smoke of the
battle is clearing, and through
the dim mist is seen a welcome
light. That light is arbitration.
Her beams flash from their dis
tant height of progress and
pierce the black night of war.
The terror over suffering of war
must flee before her as flying
clouds before the driving wind.
And when the dark clouds drift
away, calm and peace will reign
over ALL The light of peace will
tighten the old time gloom. War
will be only hideous nightmare
of the past, and justice will be
the arbitor of the nations. John
Borah.

TregO County High School Athletic
Association.

When Trego County High
School settled down to business,
having its course of study, ar
fangements for regular work
and other things of first impor-
lance attended to, the young
men as well as the principal be-
gan to talk about athletics.
Well, with US, thinking is do
ing and we busted ourselves or
ganizing an athletic association
for business amusement and
physical development.
We drew up a constitution and
bylaws for the regulation of the
affairs of our association.
The organization contemplated
tennis, football, basketball, track
The basketball was divided into
divisions, however, a boys club
and a girls club. Any member
of T. G.. II. S. is eligible to mem
bership in our athletic associa-
ton, but some restrictions were
placed upon members as to their
being able to engage in any con-
test
First any member IS eligible
to play upon any team if he is up
in his studies, and second he
must be able to play well enough
to hold his position.
Our equipment is purchased
by the collection of nominal
monthly due from each member.
In this way and with determin-
alton written upon our counte-
nances, hope in our hearts, and
the cheering songs and encourag
ing yells of the young ladies we
went forth to battle.
We have practiced hard, have
studied at night to have time to
practice, have gone upon quite a

bank account to their credit
They have subscribed for a num-
Der of magazines which may be
found in the library.
Another interesting event to
society members is the annual
contest between Philomathian
and Adelphian. And the Abel
phians have by mysterious STRAIT
egg peculiar to themselves won
by a scarce majority in some
cases. In our latest conflict Irene
Acre won the recitation for US
and saved part of the day for
the purple and white. Some day
strength will win over strategy
and then the Philomathian will
call in vain for his Adelphian
friend. For success consists
not in falling but in rising every
time you fall.
The present officers of the
society are: President, John
Borah; vice president, Allene
Nelson; secretary, Alice Peocock;
treasurer, Hattie Shaw.

number of battlefields and in the
great majority we have won.
Sometimes our opponents have
raised the question on our lineup
but we never have played and
never will play an ineligible man
on our team, $50 say our mem
bers). We have always stood
for clean athletics.
We have several times allowed
our opponents to use men on
their side who were ineligible
but we believed we could show
them that they were only strug-

Philomathian Society.

One of the most interesting
and important organizations of
the school is the Philomathian
Literary society.
It was organized November 3,
1907 with twenty three charter
members. This fact alone might
have dismayed any organization,
but the Philomathians were I'M
daunted and the successful work
they have accomplished proves
that the struggle was not in
vain.
Miss Daphne Cloud was first
elected to fill the presidential
chair

were given during the year and

War; d Relic of Barbarism.

Today we are living in the
twentieth century; in man s
highest stage of civilization We
call ourselves an enlightened
world. We boast of our wonder
Jul achievements and point with
pride to our progress. But
shame to an Enlightened world,
shame to a world that stands for
progress; we cling to that bar
oarouS relic of the savage wildS,
that destructive monster war.
Strange indeed, that mankind
mas chosen tyranny for justice,
that he has chosen a tool of bar
oariSm, to one of his own civil
zation.
War is but a reign of terror
and that terror has left its mon
uments in every quarter of the
globe. Greece was once the
home of art and culture. Athens
day her tall white ruins
pallid phantoms of another
world stand forth as monuments
90 the ravages of war. Even
great Rome, the world empire
and conquerer of nations, was
found to die at its hands. Across
the Mediterranean, the site of
ancient Carthage stands.
Low lies her towers, sole relics
of her sway
The desert shores a few sad
remnants keep"
Civilization has left her shores.
The lion steals from his den and
on her very ruins gives forth
his laundering roar-and all
this stands but a monument to
war.
Today we have our armies in
wait to carry on this devastation,
90 trample justice under foot, to
gain power by this reign of ter
ror. Our huge battle, ships line
the ports of every shore. They
seem to vanishingly sheer at
sight, and slap the very face of
justice. Daring, defying they
patrol the world and establish
their claims by sheer force.
DuU ulllS CdIlllOU IdSU III d. pro-
greSSive world When shall it
stop? Just so soon as mankind
wants to stop it, and let US hope
that is soon Indeed we may
say positively that it will be soon. }
Nations are beginning to see
their crime. The Old World is
beginning to realize it's inconsis-
oency. 1t is beginning to lament
wars of terror; wars of famine,
Unnecessary suffering and death,
ind so she is making a solemn
VOW that it shall stop and it will.

claimed that this auto will haul

can be taken off and the family
