Get Behind the Team.


1t is easy enough to cheer and sing
when football rally is held in school ::
it is easy to make great uproar; but
the proof of the pudding lies in the eat
ing" in football as we'll as in baking.
When the game is really in progress the
uprOar is lacking. Truly the proof of
school spirit is not in the assembly
takes place You may cheer as much as
room. it is on the field where the action
YOU like at school, but that will not help
the team.
"A small number of the members of the
school go to the games and when they
get there they remain divided; they pre-
serve no solid cheering section. 1t would
seem that things have come to bad pass
when a rival team can bring with il
cheering section as large, if not larger.
than the cheering section in our own
Jowni
n very large cheering section is not to
be expected to accompany the team when
If goes away, but it is to be expected
when the team remains at home. And it
shows a decided lack of anything resem-
bling school spirit when the members of
the school do not go and yell their
best.
Patriotism in school is the forerunner
OF patriotism in the country. Let's get
behind the team and show them that we
REALLY CARE!"
Have you ever noticed that those peo-
pie who are handicapped the most are the
ones who succeed in the long run? Many
of the pupils who attend B. II. S. come
from surrounding towns, which necessi-
tates their driving back and forth to
school. Others do not do this. but board
in town and care for children and do
housewOrk. Still others may work in
town during the afternoon and ride
home late at night. This signifies that
they want high school education to
such an extent that they are willing To
work hard to pay for it.
There is however, the other kind of
persons who does not have these difficult
ties to contend with. yet who does not
stand as high in studies as these others.
What is the reason for this? Is ii be
cause they do not care enough about
their education. or it is because they are
merely too INDECENT or Just plain lazy?
Those who have every opportunity or
advantage certainly ought to be able to
do their work more thoroughly ana better
than those others who have so many diff
culties to go against.
What about it? Are you one of those
who appear to be without ambition. or
are YOU one of the others! Shouldn't
you be willing to work and work hard in
order to obtain an education that will
help you obtain higher and better things

What 7 HuUe Learned

tiCe of medicine back in 1875. [
am now 83 years old, and though
from time to time the medical pro-
fession makes some wonderfully
interesting experiments and tests,
the fundamentals of causes and
relief in this particular ailment
are unchanged.
But the people take greater in
terest today In their health, In
diet, exercise and the drinking OF
water. Constipation, however, will
occur from time to time no matter
how one tries to avoid it. Of next
importance, then, is how to treat
it when it comes. | believe In
getting as close to nature as
possible, hence my remedy for
constipation, known as DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin, is a mild
vegetable compound. 1t IS made
of Egyptian SIENNA and pepsin
with agreeable aromatics. Chill
dren will not willingly take bitter
things. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant
tasting, and youngsters love it:
1t does not grippe. Thousands of
mothers have written me to that
effect.
Over 10 million bottles of DR..
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are now
sold every year, and it is the most
widely bought family laxative In
the world. | say family laxative
because all in the family can use
it with safety. 1t is mild enough
for the infant in arms, effective
in the most chronic constipation

of an adult. The formula is on
every package.
Recently there has been a new
wave of drastic physics. Calomel.
a mercurial that salivates and
loosens teeth, has been revived;
salt waters and powders that
draw needed constituents from
the blood; coal tar disguised In
candy form that causes skin erup-
tions. In a practice of AZ years
| have never seen any reason for
their use when a medicine like

lowers your strength 90 per cent,
hardens the arteries and brings on
premature old age. Do not let a
day go by without a bowel move
ment. Do not sit and hope but
go to a druggist and get bottle
of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin.
1t is a generous-size bottle. Take
a teaspoonful that night and by
morning you will be well. The cost
is only about a cent a dose. Use
Syrup Pepsin for yourself and MEM

rules of health: Keep the head
cool, the feet warm, the bowels

District Health Officers.

The Brattleboro Reformer calls atten-
ton to another case in which a return
to town authority would probably save
money when it says:
Restore ITO towns administration of
local affairs in the state Republican
platform might mean a return 10 town
health officers and the abolition of the
present force of district health officers
drawing full time pay from the state
treasury. 1t is certain little relief from
state tax can be expected if the state
continues to pay for the administration
of local affairs.
The idea of district health officers has
not worked out very well, according to
the doctors. who ought to know. and the
legislature will probably be asked to
consider whether it would not be better

Work of History Class.

In Miss Wheelers history class, differ
ent pupils are looking up myths and spe-
cial topics, giving many interesting side
lights on Greek history. There is a de-
tailed chart on Greek mythology in room
l. There is list of gods and goddeses !;
what they are gods and goddesses of !;
what myths tell about them and the hon
ors bestowed on them.
As the American history class is study
ing the Revolutionary war Miss Wheeler
has posted some very interesting pictures
pertaining to this subject.
Miss Wheeler has divided her com
munity civics classes in groups of six
or seven. Each group has its leader.
Every day one person is at the board
and group leaders keep track of the reel
tations. giving to each the work merited.
This plan has greatly aroused the inter
est in the class.
Miss Walliss sophomore English
classes are taking up paragraph struc-
ture.
The economies class has been divided
into groups. Each group is TO look up
and report fully upon some topic of cur
rent interest. such as the cancellation of
the war debt, or the tariff bill.
