HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(Sophomore Notes)

We have the bravest lot of freshmen
girls who call themselves the "Battal-
lion of Death.'' Just to show you how
brave they are, the other day Aura May
chased them home with big green
worm. Upon reaching the front door
of their homes they said "Who's
afraid of you? We are the Battalion
of Death.' If you see any of this
said battalion, run for your life for
they kill all who get in their way.
Beware, Freshmen Sophomore day
will soon be here.
Bernard Hopkins, one of the Sopho-
more boys, went hunting for (dear)

Dear Friends:
l want to take this opportunity to
thank the class for the membranes
which YOU gave me. 1t does me more
good than yol think to know that you
remembered me. I feel like doing my
work better and like making even
more sacrifices if necessary for the
good United States. I don't believe
that a person with good red blood in
their veins could ever in any war re-
gret making any sacrifice whatever for
his native land. This is more especially
true after the first step is taken.
We are proud to be called the de-
Tenders of freedom and justice and
will never regret that we gave up all
for chance to fight for U. s. A.
Please write to me at least once a

school in the world to come here and

Sincerely your friend,

Of her family and friends to marry
her to q monocled aristocrat with a

TOTTENVILLE, June 26:-All of
| the officers ware reelected at the
meeting of the Staten Island Civic
League held last night at borough
| hall, st. George. The name of J. Fred
Smith was added to the executive
| committee. which was the only
| change.
William Writ Mills, vice president
and chairman of the general commit
tee, presided at the meeting in the
place Of DR.. l.. A. Dreyfus, the presi-
| dent, who was called to Washington
on business. Several matters of i'm
portance were taken up by the men,
bers of the general committee that
were of interest to the entire borough
| of Richmond.
! Stuart l.. Ritz, president Of the
|Tottenville, branch, called the atten-
ton Of the league to the heavy motor
traffic over the roads of Staten Island,
particularly the trucking. He stated
that this traffic had increased enor-
mously during the past year and was
placing a great strain on Amboy
road; that this thoroughfare was not
adequate and would not stand indef1-
nitely such constant heavy traffic. He
argued that this condition should be
! relieved by completing the Southside
boulevard which would divert traffic
from Amboy road and meet the pres
ent heavy demands Of traffic by the
government. 1t was decided to lay
| the matter before the city and federal
authorities. The garbage question
was discussed at length.
| Mrs. G. e. Simonson, OF the Wom-
ems League for Service, reported that
the odor from the plant was so nau-
seating that 1t was necessary to close
the windows at certain times. Mr.
Mills stated that the garbage had
been permitted to remain for as long
as thirty days in the scows, that the
plant has not been receiving a suffi-
cient supply of coal and that it Is not
operating to its full capacity.
From various reports 1t was shown

Gus to health and would be very OBJ
jectionable to the patients to be cared
for In the new base hospital Of the
government at Fox Hill Heights. The
various hospitals of the island will be
asked to join the civic league in en-
tering protests to the city, state and
federal officials.
The grand jury appeared before

ence on the garbage plant, but 1t was

plished at the meeting.

Dr.. upman Credits Success
Of ". s. s. TO Women Workers

Dr.. Jacob G. Lipman, general or
ganizer Of the county for w. S. s.
issued this statement today:
The w. 9. S. drive in Middlesex
county has begun under very promis-
ing conditions. The publicity which
the local papers in the county have
been able to give to this important
national undertaking has helped wor-
derfully to stimulate public interest
and to quicken the sense Of responsi-
bility Of residents Of our cities, bor-
oughs and rural districts.
The local chairmen Of the COM
munlties in the county have organized
their force for house to mouse can
vass, The most effective aid in the
campaign is being rendered by the
public spirited women in the county.
In fact the success of the undertaR-
Ing, which is practically assured, will
be due almost entirely to the women.
Most of the solicitors have been en-
listed from among them and they
have enthusiastically begun the work
Of canyassing. Cooperation Is being
received from various organizations
and especially from the Women's
Council Of National Defense, Of which
Mrs. A. L. Smith Of New Brunswick,
was county chairman.
1T is already being realized by tho
average man and woman in the county
that War Savings Stamps and Thrift
Stamps represent not merely some
thing of especial interest to school
children. It Is now being recognized
quite widely that the War Sayings
Stamps are short-term governm ent
bonds, maturing In 1929, and bearing
interest at four and one-half per cent,
compounded quarterly On this ba-
sis, War Savings Stamps represent an
investmen which will compare favor
ably with Liberty Bonds. Indeed, War
Savings Stamps are Liberty Bonds Of
smaller denomination. It is recog-
nized at the same time, that in sign
ing a pledge for the purchase OF War
Savings and Thrift Stamps, the p,lr-
chaser undertakes, in good faith, to
deny himself certain comm Cd ties
whose production would deprive the
government of labor and material that
may be needed in the carrying on Of
the war It is obvious. therefore, that
the w. s. s. drive will create In this
nation very large number of holders
of government securities. 1t will
quicken the moral responsibility to
the nation in that we shall all feel
more deeply the need Of conserving
labor and materials to the fullest ex-
tent. By so doing we shall pet the
right Of way to our war iniurtries,
and to the triumph of our arms"
