Sport Wheezes
by CLUG-

In the big leagues a ball player never
becomes too great too valuable to his
club TO be disciplined when he goes be-
yond the limit. Even Ty Cobb failed to
get away with his rough stuff.
What has become of the man who used
to play catch with his little son while
waiting for mother to get the biscuits
baked at supper time?
Any Topeka golfist will tell you that
baseball is losing its grip on the public.
And almost any tennis fiend is just as
confident that the majority of golf play
ers will be buying net equipment within
a few weeks.

The Town and Its School

o, students of A. H. S. count
your many blessings, name them
one by one" and see If you do not
agree with us Sophomores that the
school ought to thank the givers.
Our new lighting system, Mr..
French's desk, the physics labora-
tory equipment, the new maps in
Room l., are only few of the i'm
provements made by the school
board this year. Moreover, A. II. S.
realizes that the success of the com
munity entertainments and of ath-
letics was due largely to the SPLEEN
did support of the citizens of Abb
lene. Abilene's interest was ex-
pressed in another way when the
Woman's Relief Corps presented the
high school with a beautiful flag.
The girls in the gymnasium classes
certainly appreciate the spirit which
prompts the lady members of the
faculty to give their time and energy
to the teaching of gymnastic work.
Only one more blessing do we
ask, beg, beseech and implore the
of Abilene, Kansas to give
us. 1t is-can you guess?-a new
high school!

Old A. II. S.

There is no school like A. H. S.
Where er we dwell or roam,
In lands beyond the ocean,
or near the bounds of home.
No other school can beat her,
Aho search where'er you will
Our love will e'er go with her,
No school her place could fill.
There is no school like A. II. S.
None so good and clean,
We boast her to our fellowmen
Wherever we are seen.
Her spirit is the highest
Her standards are the best,
She's sending out her graduates
North, east and south and west.
There is no school like A. H. S.,
No matter how large the town.
Her colors are the dearest,
The sturdy orange and brown.
They have no spot or blemish
The which we needs must hide
To make our flag the purest,
And the one with greatest pride.
There is no school like A. H. s.,
We've said 1t all along.
We have increased her spirit
With words, and cheers, and song.
She teaches every subject
From algebra to art,
And ah! too soon the time will come
When this school and we must part.
There is no school like A. H. s.,
Well say it when we've gone
To take up soberer, harder work,
And we think of her cheers and song.
There Is no school like A. H. S.,
Where'er we dwell or roam,
In lands beyond the ocean,
Or near the bounds of home.

very successful and came home
laden, since at least thirty specimens
of each flower were taken to lab
oratory for further examination.

No Dress Rule Needed Here

On account of the extravaganza
in dress shown by high school girls,
several high schools in the state
have been earnestly discussing uni
form dress. We are glad we can say
that this will not be found neces-

The girls unconsciously have
adopted a simple style of uniform
dress. They wear middies, not be-
cause they are compelled to but be-
cause they like to, and there are
very few girls who do not wear
them. Even at the school parties
one could not say the majority of
the girls dress extravagantly.
