The High School

Professor Briscoe gave a very
forceful and beneficial lecture at as
sembly Wednesday morning. The
spirit of his talk was for the better
ment and advancement of the Ash
land high school, following with the
idea that the only way in which the
institution could be bettered was by
the individual effort of each and
every student. The Just enough to
get through" was scorned. The idea,
What man thinks he can do, he
can do" was the dominant note in
his lecture. He spoke of what a
beautiful school and what exceptional
equipment the students had to work
with-"This is but the husk of the
institution; let's see if we can't make
the ear or center, yourselves, the real
school itself, just as good"
