the top of the book cases in the north
west corner of the assembly hall
The first of the year there was talk
Of getting case to put them in, but
no action was taken.
Liberal High has won number OF
cups both large and small. They
were won.>in literary contests; by
track teams; by relay teams, and by
football teams. The contestants
worked hard to win the cups and we
should show our appreciation by put
ting the cups in nice looking case.
Nearly all schools, big or little,
have trophy case Of some kind. II
seems as If something is wrong some
place, for school as old and large
as Liberal High to have so many cups
and no good pace to keep them.
This is question for the students
themselves to decide.
The athletes, especially, should be
interested in this, or maybe the rest
Of the school should show their ap-
preriaction to the contestants by get
ting them trophy case.
The bookcases will be moved into
the library room next week then the
trophy cups will have to be moved
some place, but where?

Joined the club since its organiza-
ton, a complete reorganization was
deemed necessary. Alva Cain was
elected president, Chester Boles,
vice president, and Esther Shorb, Sec
rotary. Several important matters
of business were transacted such as
adopting the rules of order and dis
cussion on the principles of debates,
Mr.. Steele gave the club some very
good information and advice, and he
also presented and outlined as a guide
to be used in future debates.
The Teachers annuity bill was dis
cussed by some of the members, but
the talks were short because of the
lack of time. A complete discussion
of this bill is being planned for the
next meeting. A committee, with
Edelynn Crissman as chairman, was
appointed to draw up constitution
to govern the club. This committee
will have a constitution ready for
presentation at the next meeting.
There is plenty of talent in the
club and great things may be accom-
plished, and with the support Of the
school in general, this club should be
one of the Give wires" organizations
of L. H. s.
