brings joy and peace to the o. H. S.
Aside from the fair, hunting trips,
good eats and the holiday itself, the
big event for Ocala on Thanksgiving
will be the conclusion Of the o. FL. S.
1922 football schedule with Barlow on
our home field. We are going to at
tack the tough Barlow eleven the way
we would a Thanksgiving dinner, so
of course the Thanksgiving victory
will be ours. The original aspect as
given to Thanksgiving day by the
Puritans is lost to most of US but let
that be, we are not blue law fanatics
so let's enjoy ourselves. In conclu
sion what harm would it be if on
Thanksgiving we recalled the famous
quotation, "Eat, drink and be merry,
for tomorrow you may die"?
Did you ever see a wildcat fight? ?
Then come to the Thanksgiving game
between the o. H. S. Wildcats and
Barlow and you will see eleven of
them in action. The Wildcats are
sharpening their claws and are going
to put up the scrap of their lives for
a victory.
Through the assistance of the street
department the two o. n. S. outdoor
basketball courts have been put in
condition. We are expecting our
girls as well as our boys basketball
teams to make the old courts proud
of themselves by keeping the big end
of the score in every game.
Well, here we are! Over two months
of school have done the vanishing act
Yet most of us are still in the back
ground when the big grades are handed
out. The end of the first semester
is not so far off but even yet some OF
US haven't settled down to work The
value of our time in high school, that
time which prepared US for our life's
struggle, can hardly be over rated
In view of that fact we would do vel
to remember that moments wasted il
idleness can never be regained. Ev
erybody! let's give her the gas, climl
out of our old ruts and on into tn,
limelight of better grades. If we will
only put call we've got" into ou
school work, results are certain.
Little Charlie Rogers may not be

The game of baseball often afford
instances of striking situations.

Miss Edwards, our English teacher
has been selecting some of the epi

: Her Nose":
The Girl Who Powdered Her Nose
Here lies dame entitled Jane Moros,
Everywhere she went she'd powde
her nose;
In summer, in winter, in rain or shin
At home or on the street and at an
: time,
: She'd powder her nose.
And as to smoking, she took up the ia
Without asking mother or even dad
n And then one day, how sad the dee,
n She dropped a match in keg O.

y And-well rather guess "she pow
u dered her nose"
q Of course, nothing is accomplishe
without effort, but we should n,
make ourselves slaves and drudges |

m studies. Midway between these tv
