HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

At last the junior class had been able to gather an assemblage, numbering just, i5l students. However, four meet ings had to be called to produce this desired effect on the scholars The fact that l5O students constituted a quorum kept the officers on the lookout for any one leaving the meeting, for had two scholars left the meeting quorum would have been lacking, thus making it impossible to transact any business.
 After much counting. Dustin, presi- dent of the class. called the meeting to order, As this meeting was specially called for the election of n class pin committee, this business was immedl- ately attended to. member from each course being chosen. Mss ID. Blakeslee was elected unanimously from the A course. Standing votes being held, Hynes of the E course was next to be elected. Miss Singleton came out vlc- torious as a member from the C course. From the D course Miss Chase was chosen, while Burton was elected from the E course. Myers was then unanl- mously chosen from the r course, and Miss sheridan from the c course.
 Following the order of business. the minutes of the preceding meeting were read. but were voted void by the mem bers after a few remarks by Chandler concerning the constitutionality of tha, meeting, on account of quorum not being present As assistant treasurer md a sergeant at arms were chosen at that meeting the elections were de- clared void This was easily remediel by a motion to the effect of having the same officers previously chosen to be unanimously reelected Keane. who had been elected sergeant at arms, handed in his resignation for that office, Cross was then elected In his stead Ar amendment, to be voted on at the next meeting concerning the changing of the quorum of l50 10 T5 members was brought up, after which the meeting adjourned by motion.

WHO IS QUALIFIED?

When the Legislature meets in
May, among it's first duties, and
one which the people will insist
upon, is the amendment of the
primary law. Experience has
knocked that law full of holes. It
is shown to be inadequate to
meet public needs or to prevent
and punish fraud.
But the question arises to
whom shall the duty be assigned
of drafting the changes neces-
sary. Since the strange specta-
Gle was lately seen that the prin-
cipal author of the primary law
was it's most merciless critic, the
public is fearful that it will not
be easy to find any one who will
stand pat on the law his own in
genuity has devised. Tn have
Herman, the apostle of the pri-
mary law, disappoint one, what
is to be hoped for?
Clearly, a new Daniel must be
looked for, to sit in Judgment up
on the best means to employ in
securing perfect fairness in the
operation of the primary law. In
the new assembly who is the
best qualified for this work? We
trust that the need will bring
forth the man.
