French Club at
Western High Is
Proud of Teacher

The French Club of Western High
School is heartily in favor of the
American system Of co-education. IL
the applause received by Nine.
Blanche j. Bimont, a member of the
w. H. S. faculty, during her recent
address before the club, may be
taken as an indication.
Better results are obtained in
American schools by co-education
than in French schools, where the
boys and girls are separated" said
Nine. Bimont. who is very popular
at Western.
The interest of all the girls pres
ent was held by the striking man.
ner in which their French teacher
presented the problem. The APP
prevail Of the girls was spontaneous.
This, the first social gathering Of
EN- Avant." was held at the home
of Margaret Balm. with Helen New
man and Katharin Spencer as host
esses. AS her contribution to the
entertainment Nine. Bimont told Of
opportunities opened to American
music students by the great French
masters, as a token of the gratitude
and appreciation Of the French peo-
pie for the work America did in the
war. Madame went on to say that
next year the masters in art hoped
to make similar provisions for the
accommodation of American art stu
dents.
The plan Is to make special prices
for all American students and to pro-
vide place Of residence for the girls
by converting the chateau of Fon-
tainbleu into a dormitory. The full
fillment of the latter plan would
mean that those fortunate girls who
lived at the chateau would be occu-
plying the rooms formerly tenanted
by Louis XIV and his court.
Miss Rupi. the honorary vice presi-
dent of the club. also gave an inter-
esting talk.
The social part Of the program in
cluded jokes and anecdotes, a speech
by Miss Newman, a piano selection
by Miss Thompson and a dance by
Miss Spencer.
When the program was completed,
refreshments were served and dane
ing followed.

Fingerprints Are
Favored By Teacher

Mrs. Ottilie Young, of the c. H.
8. faculty. is extremely interested in
fingerprints.
IF the fingerprints Of everyone in
tho United States were taken Of
ficially in all the police precincts. It
would prevent many innocent from
being unJustly accused and SEN
fenced" she says. She described tho
method Of taking the prints. Tho
fingers are lightly laid on a small
ink pad. then in turn placed one by
one on a section of a large sheet of
paper which il marked off with q
space numbered for each finger.
Mrs. Young has had her prints
taken on official paper in the correct
way. They were privately done in
her own classroom.
There IL no use." insists Mrs..
Young. "in my sending my finger
prints to be recorded. One person
out of 30 many means only q waste
Of time. but II would be q big thing
think, to the Federal Government
IL there could be a system of finger
print records in the Police Depart
ment, and the detective bureaus
could be run on basis of certainty
instead of on rules OF Sherlock
Holmes"

sons triumph was due mainly to the
fine coaching the team received from
Mr.. Metzler.
Senior girls served as Mattresses.
Following the supper a clever pro-
gram was executed NY the c. H. 8.
Dramatic Association. The presen-
tation of the pantomines was loud

by the large number Of talented
students who performed 90 creditably
on this occasion.
Fine music FASTENED the steps Of
the boys. and the dance In the Arm
DRY was soon in full swing. The re-
decorated Armory, very hastily
fixed up by Central boys. proved an
inspiring sight. The memory of the
night fingers with the players. and
boys who are back next year pledged
their graduating team members and

fest1val as great IN lSZZ.

given for the football teams of Wes-

two schools deserve q large measure
of the seasons glory.
The plucky Eastern Football team

rill Club Friday night wound UP a

THO Regiments
Best Proof of
Cadet Success
By FRANK DANIELS,
Principal, Mckinley Manual Training
School.

Principal, Mckinley Manual Training
School.
The success and growth of tho
High School Cadet Corps from two
companies in 1882 to two regiments
in 1921 Is the most conclusive evi-
dence that there is in this training
something worth while. The fdct
that a boy had been a high school
cadet was sufficient to put him in a
preferred class when he entered the
service during the war. This was
not on account Of any knowledge Of
military science which might have
been gained because such instruo-
ton forms only . very minor part
Of q cadets training. It was be-
cause Of certain fundamental quail
ties which had been developed and
which are essential to success In
any calling.
The cadet must first learn to
stand erect with head up and chest
out to assume a posture and car
riage indicative Of self-respect and
mental alertness. He must learn
to follow directions. promptly. with
out question, and in conformity
with others, knowing that hesita-
ton or failure ON his part means
failure for his company. No bst-
ter illustration Of team play can be
found. Success in these essentials
leads to promotion with its greater
responsibilities. Tho officer must
be responsible for himself and for
others. He must learn to give d.
rections intelligently and inteIlisibly
and see that they are carried out,
his success depending upon his abil-
ity to command tho respect and
cooperation Of his subordinates and
tho confidence of his superiors.
These qualities are essential to
tho cadet and to every man who
hopes to rise above the ranks of
mediocrity.

JG STUDENTS FOSTERS BEST SPIRIT OF RIVALRY

Business Alumnus Points Out
Disadvantage of Leaving High
Schools Too Early.
BY JOHN REILLY,
h, II, 3. Glass President, 1891.

-. II. .. Oino8 EIooloouSs
IN HE Business High School alum
nj has been conducting an en-
ergetic campaign to have stu
dents remainin the school for the
full four-year course, instead OF
dropping classes when they receive
two-year certificates.
Their slogan to the students 10
Take four-year course and make
your last two years as much acad-
emic as you can" 1t Is the idea to
have more B. H. s. graduates at
tend college, and the alumni wants
them to get the necessary credits.
Several OF last years graduates
are now in college. A, few, among
them myself. are at Georgetown
University Law School. Many peo-
pie have the opinion that all q
Business High School is for is to
drill her students in the routine OF
everyday office work. They are en-
tirely wrong. The wheels OF indus
try simply will not turn unless there
are capable business men and wom-
en- behind them, and this country
will not prosper unless INDUSTRY
progresses.
PROFESSIONAL TRAINING.
A good example of the importance
of the work that you are now TAX
ing in school is this Where would
the world be without professional
men, such as physicians. architects.
lawyers, etc? Where would these
men be without business? And
where would business be without
trained business specialists to ad-
minister it's functions?
In the day Of reconstruction,
when everyone is looking forward to
a speedy return to normality the
greatest difficulty facing the cap
tains of industry is when will the
condition of the mercantile world get
better. 1t is going to be q mighty
task for this great nation Of ours to
make business well again. and she is
depending upon you 10 a large de-
gree, for her future prosperity. as
students Of a great commercial insti-
tuition of her capital, to take your
place in the ranks of the high
idealed business specialists.
REMEMBER TWO THINGS.
The city of Washington Is depend
ing upon you to hold her mercantile
fort when your time comes,/ Are you
going to be prepared or not? II you
take a four-year course you certain.
ly will be prepared. because with a
firm foundation of the routine OF
business the first two years, and
with two years of academic work,
you will have something that any
one would be envious Of.
SO remember these two things:
1. Take q f0ur-year course.
2. Make your last two years en-
brace enough academic subjects to
admit you to college.
II you do not take advantage OF
what B. II. 8. has to offer you will
sooner or later fall by the wayside
to let those who do pass. Make the
soundest investment you ever made
in your life-A FOUR-YEAR
COURSE AT BUSINESS.

OF course the principal right to
celebrate" was Centrars. the Blue
and White having annexed the COW
eted football championship title.
But Tech won the 135-pound champ
ionship. and the boys are proud OF
their lightweight team. A dance Is
being arranged for the members OF
the teams. 1t has not been finally
arranged when or where or II the
annual football supper will be held.
Rejoicing in the winning Of tho
championship. the Central bulletin
printed the following joyful an
nouncement N large type in their
last weeks issue:
THE championship Is ours! We
have encountered Eastern, Tech.
Business, and Western and not once
has our banner been lowered by the
taste of defeat. Too true. the game
with Western resulted in a scoreless
tie. but even that slight faint on
Central's clean sheet has failed to
keep her from the championship.
Central has won this championship
in the face of overwhelming odds.
She faced Business and Western.
the last two teams played. minus the
service Of three players whose worth
to the team was enormous. These
boys were out Of the game because
of ineligtbility. But in the face OF
these difficulties did the Central
spirit fair Not once. and on that
account not once did she taste de-
feat.
Western may consider herself for
tunate to escape from the conflict
unscathed. But why mourn about
this game when the championship In
ours? The team has upheld the
aged fighting traditions of old Gen.
trail, and with such a talented coach
as Mr.. Metzler at the helm, can one
wonder how 1t would be possible for
the championship to evade our
grasp?"
Last night the annual football sup
per was held at Central.
Followed the dance. and what a
memorable dance it was. Merriment
reigned supreme. for tho whole
school and especially tho senior
class meant to show the football
team just what the return Of tho
championship cup meant to Central.
Turkey dinner. and all that goes
lunchroom cooks can turn out,
whetted the spirit of the fighting
football team and the result was a
wild reign of good feeling.
Robert A. Maurer. principal,
spoke to the boys, prasing their
deeds. which made District scholastic
gridiron history in the past month.
Several distinguished guests from
the Franklin School enjoyed the
banquet. and paid tribute to the Blue
and White footballers who won the
title.
