High School Notes

Annually, year after year, you
come here to see and hear what the
graduates are doing. Education is alb
sOlutely necessary for without it our
boys and girls would be handicapped
in this world of strenuous effort and
limitless competition. Class of IT, if
you take as your motto "the four great
raphy now and before / write "fins"
| will write success so said Doctor
MacLauren of the University of Wis
cOnsin when he addressed the senior
class last year. The four things re-
ferred to are: To think without con-
fusion; love his fellowman sincerely;
act from honest motives purely; trust
in God securely" Glass of '18, follow
this motto and your biography will be
written now.
The Seniors meet quite often to talk
over graduating plans. The girls have
decided to wear white MILDLY suits
with red ties and the collar cuffs and
pockets in blue. The boys are still
planning on white trousers, blue
coats and trimmings to match.
The tennis courts were the scene of
four fast sets this week. A team from
Northwestern college sOundly trounc-
ed the locals, winning three sets and
giving the high school a consolation
game.
The Seniors have taken all the eX-
aminatiOns this week and are conse-
quently happy in the fact that all got
by. The freshmen, sophomores and
juniors will start their grind next
week

GRADUATION week
FROM June 10 TO IS
AT HIGH SCHOOL
Class Play Monday and Commence.
ment Exercises Wednesday Even
ing-Alumni Banquet Thurs
day Evening.

The week of June 9 to Is to high
school seniors will be a memorable
one. In that brief space Of time will
come the annual play, commencement
night and Alumni banquet
For many this last week will be a
starting point in life. To others it will
mean step taken toward an ultimate
goal. A fixity of purpose during high
school days helps one to achieve and
surmOunt the ever increasing difficult
ties of life with it's stern reality, which
in these war days, places on the Shout
ders of our youth, both boys and girls,
the responsibilities Of mature years.
When every thought and every action
must be weighed, where a wrong con-
clusiOn may mean loss-then it is that
the full realization of what is being
entrusted to the future manhood of
our nation comes.
Monday, June 10, will be a gala one.
The cast of the senior class play,
"One of the Eight" has been rounded
into admirable shape under the direc-
ton of Miss Laurinda Albers. The play
is to start at .S:15 o'clock. Seats can

pitcher excellent support. For the
losers, pitcher Dempleaf did we'll,
