Harry was only one of hundreds
who had fallen in the fray. Indeed so
many had paid the great price that
had not reinforcements arrived Ger
many would surely have captured the
town.
In one of the companies that was
sent out to reinforce the company
Harry was in, was Paul Jones. AS
the detachment was hurrying forward
Paul espied lying close by form that
looked familiar to him, and bending
over it, he received great shock for
the body was none other than that of
Harry Brown. He raised Harry's head
upon his knee and poured some water
between his lips for he found that
Harry still had some life left in him.
The water seemed to revive Harry,
for he opened his eyes and at the
sight of his old friend a glad light
stole into his eyes and he exclaimed,
"Oh Paul forgive mel" And Paul with
tears streaming down his cheeks said,
Harry, it was not your fault. You
were right all the time and it is who
should ask forgiveness, for l have al
ways been very sorry for the way l
acted that day.
Harry threw his arms around Paul's
neck and wept as only young man
can weep, for he knew that he was
forgiven. Paul, realizing that the life
of his friend was fast coming to a
close, was carrying the body of the
young hero to a shell hole which
might offer it some protection, but he
had not gone far when large piece
of shell struck him in the heart and
again Friendship triumphed as the two
young heroes died in each others arms
They had paid their debt to each other
and to their country.

The Triumph OF Friendship

81 don't want ever to set eyes on
you again, and | warn you now never
to cross my path, or you will be sorry
for it," The angry and insulting
words came from the lips of a young
man named Paul Jones and were
hurled recklessly across the street to
another young man named Harry
Brown.
Harry was so angry with Paul that
he could not find words to hurl back
at him. He tried to speak several
times but every time he tried, the
words semmed to choke him. These
boys had always been like brothers to
one another and had spent many
pleasant hours together, but just be-
cause they could not agree on a de-
cision an umpire had given in game
of baseball, a heated argument arose
between them and caused them to be-
come the greatest enemies.
These two boys were about the
same age. They lived close to each
other in Hampden, little town in
Vermont. Both boys seeing that their
friendship had come to sudden end,
went on their way to their respective
homes, each one still believing him.
self to be right in the assertion he had
made concerning the umpire's decis-
ion.
For several weeks each boy would
do all that he could to annoy the other
until one day Harry, deciding that
Hampden was not large enough for
both him and Paul Jones, went to New
Jersey where he secured employment
n the Office of large manufacturing
plant. He was quite content there
until the war broke out between the
United States and Germany, then he
enlisted in the service of Uncle Sam
and was among the first who sailed to
France to fight for his country.
Paul stayed at home and worked in
his uncle's carpenter shop until the
beginning of the great war, then he
too enlisted in the service of Uncle
Sam, but he did not get over to
France until the third lot of soldiers
sailed for that once beautiful but now
shell~torn country.
Nothing of very great Importance
happened to either one of the boys,
until one day Harry found himself
pushing forward in the front ranks
of the firing line where the bullets and
shells were flying all around and his
comrades were falling on both sides of
him, but the brave American lad, new
err once flinching, was doing his bit
with the rest of the boys when a bullet
from German machine gun found
lodging in his body and he sank un-
conscious to the ground.

A Notice To The Public

Thurmont High School is being ridi-
culed for sending out poor oral read
ers. If such be the case l wonder II
the teachers are any more to blame
for it than the public.
In order to encourage us to become
good oral readers our teachers plan
weekly meetings of our L. S. and joint
contest meetings to which the public
is always invited. The pupils and
teachers work almost month to make
the joint meetings a success and usu-
ally there are not even three patrons
present to act as judges unless we
send out special invitations.
What is the incentive for US all to
work hard for these meetings-no one
hears us but the pupils before whom
we recite many times during the school
year.
If the patrons of the school would
be willing to sacrifice even one hour
twice a month and attend these meet
inps it would be wonderful incentive
for US pupils to excel not only in oral
reading but in public speaking as well.
The second joint contest of the Phi
lokalean and Delta Sigma Societies
will be held in the Auditorium on Fri
day afternoon, Feb. 8, at 2 o'clock:
The program will be as follows:
Debate: Resolved that extra curricular
activities are as beneficial in High
School as the regular curricular activ-
tiles.
Affirmative Negative

Dorothea White Mable Hetterly
Defamation: Strenuous Life,

Mary Roddy
In behalf of the members or both
Literary Societies and especially OF
those on the program, I am taking
this opportunity Of asking your Coop
Grafton.
The boys and girls have worked
hard preparing this meeting. Every
one has had his society's interest at
heart, but would not they have more
of an incentive if they knew the pa
irons and friends of the school were
enough interested in their school work
to attend these meetings which mean
so much to the boys and girls? Will
YOU Come to the meeting on Friday
and show that you are interested in
what the school is doing?

The Tragedy of a Lost Ideal

Today one often hears certain men
or women spoken of as "idealists."
This term is applied in a spirit of de-
rision or at least disapproval to
those persons who have given forth
some doctrine or advance theories
which to the ordinary individual seem
impracticable. Suppose people do
not realize their ideals to the fullest
extent; is this any reason why we
should look down on the idealist =?
Mortal man will never be able to at
tain perfection, yet that is no reason
why he cannot or should not strive to-
ward it. The most of our great men
were idealists. Abraham Lincoln's
ideal was slaveless nation; that of
Woodrow Wilson, League of Ma
lions, etc. Herein lies the worth of
having an ideal. An ideal might be
likened to light out in some solitary
place. The wanderer is lost and sees
afar off the light shining from Win
dow. At once he sets off in the di-
rection of the light, forgetful of all
surroundings, of all impediments to
his travel. He knows that he is safe.
So it is with the person who has set
upon ideal. AS long as he keeps his
attention conferred on it, he will be apt
to pass over obstacles which lie in his
path towards it's achievement. His
mind will be taken off things which
would otherwise work to his detriment
because he has always before him
something to work for, some goal to
reach. So even if at times we think
that we have aimed little too high
and that everything around us seems
antagonistic TO our efforts, let us keep
always before us the beacon of high
ideal, and in our pursuit of it we will
be doing these thinge which are high
est and noblest. Avoid the tragedy of
a lost ideal.
Paul Kelbaugh.

"Miss Somebody Else"

miss Somebody Else," which was
presented to the public by the Junior
Class of Thurmont High School, last
Tuesday, was a success from every
standpoint. The Hall was packed to
its full capacity and the audience must
have enjoyed the play, judging from
the comments heard and the applause.
Each individual delivered and acted
his part far better than was expected
considering how difficult was the play
and the fact that it was given by the
boys and girls of the Junior Glass who
never have had much experience in
dramatics.
Mary Birely, who carried the most
important role, proved fully compe-
tent. The manner in which she
changed from society girl to an Irish
servant was very commendable. Will

Jeanette Nicodemus and Spoony

wondered why Spoony was so anxious
to learn to dance but now we know the
reason. Gladys Fraley looked charm

Mildred Ahalt should be given loads
