DR.. Becker has received returns

bite recently put Bill Strickland to

The report, treatment should be the

The School Reporter

the school building and on the school
grounds? Is it because they wish
to demonstrate their remarkable yo-
cabularies to their friends, or is it
to relieve their minds? Do boys
swear because they are Ignorant that
this is taking Gods name in vain, or
because they have gotten into the
habit by hearing others and do not
stop TO think what they are saying?
IL boys swear for the benefit of
their friends, it is entirely unneces-
sary, because no matter what kind
of friends they have they can get
along without any such blasphemy
and often do not make very appre-
ciative audience. If boys can think
of no other way to relieve their feel
ings, II shows a decided Ignorance of
the English language and they
should be shamed to display this ig-
norance by swearing. Boys who do
not know that "cussing" is wrong
are to be pitied for their vulgar lack
of refinement, and those who swear
through carelessness should learn to
think twice before they speak, thus
displaying their intelligence to bet
ter advantage.
People are apt to drift into bad
habits uncOnsciously not realizing
what other people would think Of
them. Perhaps this is the reason for
the abundance of obscene oaths COM
ing from the lips of the boys in our
school. If so, we hope they will see
what kind of an impression this
makes on outsiders and try to mend
thar WAYS and whatever the excuses
that may be offered for such Ian
guage, we hope to hear less of it in
the future. Margaret Lewis.

SOME TIME


Some time at eve. when the tide is
low.
shall slip my moorings and sail
away
With no response to a friendly hail,
In the silent hush of the twilight
pale,
When the night steps down to en-
brace the day
And the voices call in the waters
flow
Some time at eve. when the water is
low,
shall slip my mornings and sail
away
Through the purple shadows that
darkly trail
Ger the ebbing tide of the unknown
sea,
And ripple of waters to tell the tale
OF a lonely voyager, sailing away
To mystic isles where at anchor lay
The craft of those who have sailed
before,
Ger the unknown sea to the un-
known shore.
A few who have watched me ~
away
win miss my craft from the busy
bay;
Some friendly barks that were an
chored near,
Some loving souls that my heart held
dear,
In silent sorrow will drop a tear,
But shall have peacefully furled
my sail
In mooring sheltered from storm and
gale,
And be greeting the friends who have
sailed before
Ger the unknown sea to the un-
known shore.
