We regret that, not being of vot-
ing age, we were unable at the last
election to add our votes to those
of the majority which decided that
at last Abilene is to have a park
and playground. We believe, even
though our youthful opinion may
be of but little value, that the Abb
lene citizens did a great thing for
the future of their town when they
took this step. In this as in decid-
ing upon the erection of the $65, 900
hotel, a public spirit and far sight
edness were shown which cannot
fail to realize the city's greatest
need-a new high school building.
Without this addition it seems that
Abilene can hardly keep up her
present rate of progress even with
the finest park in the state. No one
denies the fact that We need new
high school, and it certainly has
been made clear that the Abilene
high school cannot longer exist at
its present high standard without
more room. The question Is, then,
how much more time will elapse
before decisive action is taken?

Gym" Work for the Girls

AS complete surprise, came the
astounding news Monday morning
that the girls are to enjoy physical
culture for the remainder of the
spring. Arrangements have been
made to rent the /. o. o. F. hall
one afternoon each week for this
purpose. There, under the leader
ship of Miss McLatchey, assisted by
Miss Ault, Miss Hazen and Miss
Shay, the A. II. S. girls will be
drilled in relaxation and breathing
exercises, in fancy marching and in
folk dancing.
1t is due to the interest and eff
fort of the lady members of the
faculty that the girls are given this
opportunity. The interest manifest
ed and which comes up to all ex-
pectations since Ill girls have en-
rolled, will in large part determine
the work to be done along this line
next year. This experiment, for such
1t may be called, is being financed
by the Student Fund" of the high
school.

County Meet Tomorrow

Tomorrow is the day of the
Dickinson county track meet. abb
lene high school, Herington high
school and Chapman high school
make up class A, with the smaller
high schools of the county as class
B, and the grade and rural schools
as classes c and D. The meet this
year is to be big affair with many
more entries than ever before. 1t
will begin at 10 o'clock sharp and
last till late in the afternoon. Ev-
cry event will be run off on sche-
dule time. Admission tickets which
will be good for all day will be is
sued to high school students for
zoe and adults for 35c. The high
school squad is not very strong in
the shot and dash events but has
all prospects of going good in the
mile and hurdles. Gish, last years
star, is with us again and is jump
ing higher and making tracks fast
er than ever. Chapman bids fair to
have a say in the meet, having
dropped baseball to take up track.
So the meet is sure to be a lively
one.
The following men are entered
for Abilene high school: Haskell,
H. Gish, Reep, Smith, Wagner,
Kreps, Lair, B. Engle, Wilcox, Kray-
bill, Jeffcoat, CARVE, G. Engle,
Little.

In addition to giving the A. H. S
girls an opportunity to take exer-
else, the physical culture class will
afford splendid opportunity for the
girls of the different classes to be-
come better acquainted. The fact
that a chance of this kind is needed
was evidenced Wednesday in the
preliminary meeting when the large
class was divided into long"
bunch and a short bunch. OF
course this necessitated the separ-
ating of some very good friends
and resulted in much Grabbing. ;"
When girls reach the stage where
they are so strongly attached to
few special friends that they resent
the idea of being thrown with the
rest of their school-mates for one
hour a week, it shows that some
thing is wrong and that the time
for action has arrived. But without
a doubt the girls have developed
this trait thoughtlessly, and after
little careful consideration will ap-
preciate and enjoy doing what is
best for them.

Country Boys Lead City "Kids"

A. H. S. is not generally thought
of as school for country children
since most people think they have
better chance in a county high
school. However, this is not the case
as the following statistics will show.
Let us consider athletics, for in
stance. OF the 200 students in A.
H. S., forty, or IA per cent of the
total enrolment are boys from the
country. Therefore If IA per cent of
the boys on the different athletic
teams were from the country, the
country students would be standing
an even show with the other stu
dents in athletics.
OF the fifteen men who were on
the A. H. S. football team this
year, four, or 26 2-3 per cent were
from the country. These are Har-
old Tober, VIII Elsie, Laverne Will
cox, Bruce Engle. or the fifteen
men on the A. H. S. track team, one
third or 33 1-3 per cent live in the
country: Charles Reep, Bruce En-
gle, Paul Muench, Laverne Wilcox,
Grant Engle. Three or 80 per cent
of the ten men on the baseball team
live outside of Abilene: Rollin Glenn
ence, Guy Sherman, Earl Edwards.
This makes an average of 80 per
cent of all the students partaking
in athletics, while, as has been stat
ed before, they compose only IA per
cent of the enrolment. This shows
clearly that all country students
have even a better chance in A. H.
S. as far as athletics are concerned
than do the city students.
The same thing holds true for
musical organizations, school enter
tainments and all other student
activities, so undoubtedly A. II. S.
is the best high school for boys and
girls from the country to enter.

A CORRECTION.

In story of the exhibit by the domestic science department of the State Normal, appearing in a recent issue of the Log Cabin Democrat, it was erroneously stated that the ex- hibit was prepared under the super vision of Miss Leaffa Randall. While the department has been in charge of Miss Randall, she, as is generally known, was granted leave of absence for the past school year, and her work for the year has been car ried on by Miss Jessie Carr Bourne, to whom credit is due for the excellent showing made at the exhibit last week.
