The staff was organized for the
purpose of stimulating school spirit
and to give an account of the hap
penings at M. & M. In a limited
way we endeavor to record all the
important events of our high school
and from time to time the happen
ings of other high schools which we
think would be of interest TO the
students and also to the people of
the community. Under the joke
column we will try to publish stme
of the queer things which belong
only to prep" life. No hazinS has
taken place lately about our high
school. This shows that we upper
classmen are trying to make the
freshmen feel at home, and that
they have a part in building up the
character and reputation OF the
school.
We are at the beginning of what
we hope to be the best year in the
annals of M. & M. All the classes
are mucli larger than they have ever
been before. There are at prese. t
As members in the Ses,ior class, Al
members in the Junior, 81 members
in the Sophomore and 70 members
in the Freshman class. An increase
of about 10 members over the
Freshman class of last year. AS a
staff the community shoull not take
us too seriously or expect us to
come up to the standard of editors
on the big newspapers, vet we aim
to do our best at all times ir tie

The easiest road to popularity is
to be funny. This does not mean
that it is necessary for a student to
be seen standing around on a street
corner putting away on cigarette.
If you are homely you have one
point to your credit since ugliness
always attracts attention
You are not likely to be a spender
of gold unless you are a saver of
time.
to bestow praise than it does to
criticise.
Never own yourself inferior to
your surroundings. Never admit
that a dish pan is more than a
match for your philosophy, nor that
your serenity can be shattered by
such little thing as a cloudy day.
Whatever comes to try our patience,
it is for us to dominate and control
it, instead of being dominated by
it.-Girls Companion.
