HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
BY High school Correspondent.)

(By ElSn SCnOOI
The Rev. Mr.. Frederick Neider-
meyer stirred the pupils of the high
school yesterday afternoon in an in
spring speech delivered in the audi
torium. Chapel not being held the
day before Lincoln's Birthday, the ex-
e~rcises were held yesterday afternoon.
The exercises began with the nag
salute and 1.-THE Star Spangled Ban
ner." The high school orchestra then
played several selections. These Sc
Iections were followed by a song The
Americans Come" ung by a group OF
senior girls. Rev. Mr.. Neidermeyer
started off by telling several humorous
stories but based the main part of his
speech on the religious side of Mr..
|Lincoln's life. He also compared him
with the school boy of today telling
how if he were to go to school today
he wouldn't copy in examinations, and
he would know more about the public
library and what is in 1t rather than
what is in the moving picture houses.
The speaker finished with a stirring
conclusion telling OF hncoln's example
for the world. The applause for his
speech was SO great that he had to
give an encore" as he called it. This
speech ended the exercises for the
afternoon.
The physics and. chemistry pupils
were glad to see Mr.. Sturgis come
back the day before yesterday having
found hat too many study periods
were as bad as having none. Mrs.
|Lanning is still confined to her home
on account of illness, but a substitute
having been obtained the English pu-
pills are having there regular work.

TOWN GIRLS TO
HAVE Y. W. c. A
Association Maintains 81 Town
Secretaries-Wants to Ex-
pand Work at Once.

~During the war girls all over the
world had their first lesson in nation
wide and world wide thinking" says
Miss Mabel Head, director of Town and
Country Work for the National Y. W.
@. A.
"Girls learned something of the
inspiration of working with hundreds
and hundreds of other girls, IN
selfishly and unstintingly, through Red
Cross work. Now the Y. W. @. A.
through its world wide program OF
service for women, is planning to ex-
pand its work so that girls all over the
world, and particularly in smaller COM
munities, will not lose this experience.
"Citizenship forums are being organ
fed for girls In small communities
where girls may come together to learn
more about their country and their re-
sponsibillty to 1t and as citizens Of
the world.
"Reading courses have been planned
at National Headquarters in New York
60 that a girl in any community may
carry on course of study, either By
herself or with other girls, on a wide
variety Of subjects.
"The Y. w. G. A. has at present thir-
ty-nine secretaries doing county work,
This means that they travel about from
one community to another helping
girls to plan out social, recreational,
educational and religious activities for
themselves and organizing them to car.
~ on these activities. These secreta,
hes work with the county agents OF
the Department Of Agriculture in car
rying on home economics work. They
help plan pageants, arrange benefits
assist the girls in going to Z. W. G A
summer conferences and help plan all
sorts OF social good times for the com
munity." :

low often do we hear the boast,
Il have not an enemy in the world
Yet, how significant of fence-styadd-
ling life, how revealing of sidetrackea
issues, OF occasions when right faced
wrong and called in vain for assist
ance. An unnamed poet says
You have no enemies, you say;
My friend, your boast is poor,
He who has mingled in the fray
Of duty that the brave endure,
Must needs make foes.
Ii you have none, mayhap,
Small is the work that you have
done.
You've put no CRATER down and out,
Or put no traitoring wretch to
r0ut,
You've never turned wrong into
right,
You've been coward in the fight.
Some men are loved for the enemies
they made! Some causes have been
victories because of their opposition
Giory in an enemy honorably made
and maintained for sake Of the faith
or principle involved. Hate not or
your part, but heed OF angry criti-
cisms and false reports which envious
and contentious opponents heap upor
you. Remember the. Pharaisees, whe
considered themselves holier than al

To say "No" squarely and firmly

To live honestly within your means
and not dishonesty upon the means of

To speak the truth when by little
prevarication you can get some special
advantage.
To refuse to knuclle down to and

though you are poor.
When mortified and embarrassed by
humiliating disaster, to seek in your

To refuse to do thing which is

To stay home evenings and try to
improve yourself when your comrades
spend their evenings having good
time.
To remain in honest poverty while
others grow rich by questionable
methods which you could easily use

To refrain from gossip while others
about you delight in it and to stand

at Camden, n. j. There are 16 other
bouts on the weeks calendar that
will be of interest to followers of this
popular indoor sport.
Eagan, although a fairly good mid
dleweight, cannot be expected to put
up real fight against O'Dowd, who
has beaten the very best oft divi-
sion outside of Jeff Smith, and h1s
been planting knockout punches on
the chins of a flock of challengers
this season. Eagan has a fair record
as a second rater, but there is lit
lie likelihood of the title being in
danger. The same can be said of
