Do Yo" Take Stock?

The wide-awake merchant takes
"stock" every so often, goes over
his goods, and sees what he has, and
what he will need. Do you take
stock every so often? Do you ever
stop to think what you know this
month that you didn't know the
month before? Do you make stock
taking a habit?
There can be no intelligent prog
ress without it. If others are MAX
ing faster progress than you, find
why. Don't let the other fellow on
the job know mort about the game
than yu odo.
Keep up with them, and check UP
every month to find out whether you
are keeping up. Take stock of what
you know at regular intervals, then
you will know exactly where you
art, and you will BIT in a position to
make real and substantial progress.

Habit

A story is told of an old English
school master who offered a prize
to the boy who would write the best
composition in five minutes on how
to Overcome a Habit.
At the expiration of the five min
utes the compositions were read.
The prize wtnt to the lad of nine
years. The following is his essay:
well, sir, habit is hard to over
come. If you take off the first let
ter it dots not change "a bit. If you
take off anothtr you have "a bit left.
If you take off still another the
whole of it remains. All of which
goes to show that if you want to

it all off together"

RED CROSS ACTIVE
IN DISASTER RELIEF

When disaster hits a community-
fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, bad
wreck or to%rnado-the American Red
Cross can be depended upon to follow
right Mt Its heels with help for the
stricken people. Red Cross relief is
almost Immediately forthcoming-food
clothing, shelter and funds; doctors.
nurses and special workers with long
experience in handling similar trouble
elsewhere.
During the last year, ending June 80.
there was an average of four disasters
a month in the United States. One
hundred and fifty communities in
twenty-seven states suffered. The
largest and most destructive of these
were the tidal wave at Corpus Christi.
Texas, and tornadoes in Mississippi.
Louisiana. Alabama, Georgia., Ohio.
Indiana and Illinois.
In these events of horror $50 per.
sons we're killed, 1900 were injured,
10000 were made homeless, about 30
600 families needed help, the property
loss was nearly $4,000 900 and al
most 100000 In relief funds, not in.
Guiding emergency supplies was ex-
pended.
To the sufferers from all disasters
during the year, the American Red
Cross sent $4,000 worth of sun.
plies, 40 Red Cross nurses and seven
special relief tra!ns. To meet the
needs Of the stricken, the organization
set up ten relief stations, operated
thirty food cante@ns and as many
emergency hospitals. One hundred
and twenty-five Ped Cross chapters
gave disaster relief service.
If disaster yer strikes this town or
county, the citizens can be absolutely
sure the Red Cross will be right on
hand to help them in every way.

How 1t Feels to be a Sophomore

On the first day of school after
having taken my seat in the Soph-
omore row and had actually con-
WINGED myself that I was really a
Sophomore, I settled myself with a
sigh of relief to think that I was
no longer a Freshman. After hav-
ing settled this to my satisfaction. l
looked around me at the rest of my
classmates. In each face I seemed
to detect the satisfaction which
felt.
1t was not until the first meeting
of the Literary Society however that
we really felt thea dvantage of be-
ing a Sophomore. When the as

and songs the Sophomore class rose

sible and with as unconcerned air
as could be mustered, and Joined

Of this apparent a~ssuredness we
could not help casting side-long
glances at the Freshmen who were
standing in utter bewilderment and
we fondly called to mind our W
experience in the same line. After

upon the stage and made to sing the
songs alont we felt more than repaid
for our experience.
The next Monday noon the entire
high school assembled in the gym
to partake in the painting of the
Freshmen. From a safe and san

help if there was need of it, we wait

The Assembly Period

This i some of the hours of the
week which is getting more and
more attention, each week bringing
with it some feature of special in
terest. This second month of essem-
bly, hours was started off with Rev.
Evans as the first speaker. Rev:
Evans gave a splendid and uplifting
address on the thought, Success"
He brought out the fact that u
success depends in a large measure
upon the aim we have in life and the
serious earnestness with which we
follow this aim. Self control he al

chine may run it's course steadily,

Mrs. Frank Philip was the next to
serve. She came with a fund of
readings which were admirably given
and thoroughly enjoyed. Several
new visitors were in evidence, which
makes us hope that soon this as
sembly hour will be looked forward
to by the people of the community
as we'll as by the school people.
Doctor Watson came with a fine
message about the need for cleanli-
ness and the wisdom of protecting
the other fellows health when we
are i'll during the third assembly
hour of the month. DR.. Watson
pointed out how easy it was for dis
eases to be communicated especially
through coughing and sneezing. DR..
Watsons' talk was timely and of
much practical worth. We hope he
may find time tog i've us more
health talks. The fourth assembly
hour for the present month was post
poned, due to the fact that the rural
teachers were u guests and had
need of the assembly hall. The nxet
regular assembly hour will come this
week at Wednesday as usual.

The Eyc-Road to the Mind

Do you know that the shortest
route to the brain is through the
eyes. That it is the broad gauge
road. That it takes and carries big
loads easily, quickly and surely?
There are a few things, Of course,
that must go other roads, a few but
they get there slower, and less ac-
curattly.
Seven-eighths of your brain-ship-
ments go in over the eye road. This
is a definite established fact.
And so visual instruction has come
to be a big factor in modern, eiic-
lent teaching.
You can't always take your class
in vocational training to 2 mill Or
plant to ste the processes they are
studying.
You can't take your geology aud
physical geography class afielG to
see specimens and formations.
You can't take your history class
to the battle fitlds,a nd ever Of you
could, there wouldn't be any battle
going on. But you can, with,'lt
leaving the room, show them any
country, any industry, any mountain
or river, by mean of films and
slides which not only hold attention
but leave an indelible impression On
the brain. Let us learn not only tc
look, but to see.

THE HOT LUNCH

The hot lunch was started last
week. So far an average of twenty
children have been served each day.
This lunch is prepared by the 7th

charged for the lunch to cover the
cost of supplies. When supplies are
brought in by the children they are
given credit for them. Vegetables
of all kinds and soup bones can be
used. l fanny of the people having
children in school who bring their
lunches can supply us with these
things, We would be glad to have
them let us know.

The Privilege Of q Teacher

To instill the ideas of clearness
correctness, force, conciseness, court
tsy and character, and tht ambition
to become proficient in the use Of
English, is the pleasant privilege Of
n teacher. When the pupil has
thoroughly sensed the art of express
sion, he ceases to be a pupil; he be-
comes a student imbued with the
same ideals as those of the teacher.
Through the inspiration of the teach
err he will begin to see principlts
instead of dry and meaningless rules.
He will create ideas for himself. It
is from the majesty of our ideals
that we grow.
