Advice to SOphomOres.

There have been many dark wills
pers which have dwelt upon the siz-
of the Sophomores' heads. However,
be consoled, for we feelingly under
stand your condition of mind We
gravely advise you to take advantage
of the shower baths in the new gym
nasium, thereby relieving the pres
sure on the brain. Be not angry for
we were once sophs ourselves But
see what we are now, Never before
has class so large, so wonderful, or
so brilliant, graduated Therefore,
take hope and do as we have done.
Follow in the footprints we have LETT
upon the stairs of Leavenworth High
School Look wise, assume an en-
gaging but respectful attitude to
ward your teachers, and never be
caught gazing into space. By these
worthy and painful methods we have
left lasting impressions on the minds
of our worthy superiors.

The Value of An Education.

Leaflets entitled Sign Posts on the
Road to Success" were distributed to
the pupils of the Sth grade the other
day. The substance of them was on
the value of an education.
Education can be measured in no
other way than by money. In list
of the most prominent living Ameri-
cans. it was shown that:
OF 100000 men who had no
schooling. not one was included.
OF 100000 men with common
school, but no high school training,
1 ,627 or 1 in 400 We're in the list.
Of 100000 with partial or complete
college training, 7709, or one in 40
had attained distinction.
With these facts before us, we can
see clearly the value of an education
1t seems that those of us who have
the excellent opportunity that is of
fered by the public schools at TIL,
day should make the most of it.

Next week you will say farewell
to the Leavenworth High School. You
will have graduated. your commence
ment exercises will be over. VIII
you feel that you are just commenc-
ing or that you are finishing? VIII
you know all you want to learn? Do
your parents think you are sufficient
ly book-wise? There will be some,
perhaps, who will find it impossible
to go to college for awhile but let It
not be through Indifference or care
lessness.
The man or woman who is a train
ed thinker. who has a broad knowl-
edge on general subjects, who has
mind development, is the one most
sure to succeed. Education is the
best foundation upon which to build
success. Don't make the mistake
many before YOU have made whom
you receive your high school diplorl
as, and think that you know enough.
You have only a good start. Don't
quit if you have but small chance
to go on.
You may not be able to take up thu
work you had planned to do just now,
but after you receive that greater ard
broader education your advance in
the business world will then be much
more rapid and you will in all proba~
bility pass those on the road, and
leave them far behind, who quit
when they were where you are now.
Begin now to make plans for en-
tering college next fall. More school
ing may require a great sacrifice but
the gain will surely be worth the
price.

To the Seniors.

In view of the fact that our worthy
Seniors, namely, the class of 1929.
will soon be leaving US and going out
into the cold, cold world, far away
from the refining influence of the
Orange and Black, we. the enterpris-
ing Juniors, wish to extend in behalf
of said Seniors q molecule or so Of
kind advice. This advice will tax
the form of few beauty hints. It's
well known that the Seniors hay
been getting through mostly on their
faces, and for that reason we think
that any aid given to them that will
help them put forth a better front
with which to encounter the obstacles
of this cruel world, will be appreciate
ed by the Seniors and the world at
large.
In the first place let us speak of
cleanliness. It is of great import
ance to carefully wash the face, neck
and ears upon rising, rigidly avoid
ing the use of soap and water Such
a practice, if repeated daily, is sure
to bring results.
Also--marvelous dimples may ae
acquired by the use of Blue Jay Corr
Plasters. To perfect a we'll rounded
dimple, the application should be
continued over three-day period.
Likewise-freckles may be dis
couraged as follows: Carefully re
move the blemsh and soak in K
per cent solution of salt and water
for "a hours. At the end of this
period the freckle is sure to become
discouraged
Then too-brunettes ("Jeffy" Goss-
Ice take notice. should carefully
avoid the use of blond face powder
Nothing is so dsconcerting. don't you
know, so out of place, as it were, as
blond cheeks on a brunette.

Senior Day.

Tuesday was Senior day in tho
Leavenworth High, and YOU should
have seen those seniors. The pupils
of the Leavenworth High School were
shocked and surprised when their eyes
lighted on the garb of the Seniors.
They all evidently have plentiful
wardrobes from the many varieties
represented in their costumes. The
makeup on their faces was not
sighted either, and as they wake d
down the street gossip could be heard
to the effect that some strict rule
would have to be enforced to prevent
the use of such things.
About 1880 they left the school 70
have their pictures taken and it is
doubtful if the camera stood the
shock. Two or three different cam
eras were used and they also went to
the photographers so it is hoped
that they will have at least one pic
ture by which to remember Senior
Day, when they are old and gray.

The 18th of May will bring another
successful school year to a close.
Everyone no doubt is happy at the
close of school and the beginning Of

twelve of the pupils will not retura

this we all know has to happen. OF
