AIM 4 HIGH SCHOOL

1t is all very well for the High
School students to attend the Basket
Ball games and back the team with
few II. S. yells. But is this spirit?
We students are apt to call this spir-
it, but it is not.
For doesn't the Debating Team as
well as the Athletics need our sup
port?
Must it be said of the Alma High
School students that they are only in
terested in enjoyment and let the fine
chances that they have to strengthen
their mental capacity slide by UNI
noticed? For a good mental contest
is as equally exciting and interesting
as a physical contest.
We should back the debating boys
as well as the basketball boys, for did
they not spend as much time in their
preparation for the debate with Mt.
Pleasant as the basket ball team
Certainly they did, and yet not nearly
all the students were out to back
them.
We can help the Debating boys, by
backing them with High School spirit
We have it. We must show it. Get
out for the debates.
Next semester Alma High School
will adopt the Supervised System of
Study School will start at 500 a.
m. and close at 300 p. m. The pc
RODS will be one hour long, with the
exception Of chorus which will come
directly after the noon hour and take
up thirty minutes. Thirty minutes
of each period will be spent in recit-
ing and thirty minutes in preparation
for the next day.
Miss Hughes will be added to the
faculty.
There is an air of industry in the
High School this week for the semes-
ter reviews are in progress. AS the
week draws to close the realization
of the semester tests next week
urges us to conserve every moment.
Then there is that mass of uncomplet-
ed work to do which must now be done
when we want to do other things.
The seniors have started work on
their first semester play. 1t is j. M.
Barries, "Alice Sit-By the Fire"
Thse taking part are Amy White,
Russell Whitman, Mary Barry, Fos-
ter Mitchell, Dorothy Jackson, Fay
Siebel, Jean Raum, and Nina Church.
Mr.. Mullin, instructor of the Man
ual Training Department, has an
nounced that during the past few
weeks this department has completed
several articles for the High School.
A number of library tables were made
by pupils and would have been kept
for exhibition but lack Of room pre-
vented this. Two typewrting tables
which will hold six machines were
made.
Supplies ordered several months
ago for the chemistry department just
arrived Friday. Among these arti-
cles was a barometer to be used in the
Natural Science Room. The chemis-
try room also has a new black
bord.

Bv Naval Precedent.

Ii is curious anomaly of the senior
service, says the London Daily News
that an officer who attains, as Lord
JellIcOe and Sir David Beatty have just
attained, the rank of admiral OF the
Bieet, is required by precedent to retire
from active command The rule may
have been designed to eliminate cid
Beadogs who had become too ancient
TO bite, but It seems sInguIariy foolish
to permit its application to men like
JellicOe and Beatty. BY the unprece-
aented rapidity Of his promotion, Sir
David has finished his sea career al
Ae age Of fOrty-eight--in the prime OF
ais life. The army is free from this
-aNiseless precedent, for the rank Of
field marshal-which is the military
equivalent to the rank Of admiral OF
die fleet--was, Of course, held during
fIle war by both Lord French and Sir
