\. S. DECLAMATORY

Raymer. was able to win two out
OF the six medals at the H. 8. De.

at Birmingham last Saturday night
Both events in which fortune smil.
ed on US was in the grades. Miss VIZ
ginia Frantz won easily in the piano
solo for the grades, and the other
was the grade chorus form Raymer
which took first.
In neither Of these. 80 far as we
learn. was there any question of the
decision being In accord with the au-
dience.
The selection played by Miss
Frantz was "Fieflies. by Charles
Hueter. The chorus rendered "Mer-
ry June Both were exceptionally
well done.
Buckingham also secured two
flrsts; Thelma Rhoadarmer winning
in the dramatic with the selection
"How the La Rue Stakes were Lost. "
and Melvin Moore won the huorous,
rendering the selection, Uncle Dam
iel's Prayer
Keota had t6, be content with win
ming one. the vocal solo, by Miss Dor
othy Fox, singing "The Night Wind"
and "The Lamplit Hour
Grover also was able to capture
only one first. that the violin solo
by Lester Thomas frpm Hereford.
1t was considered one Of the best
contests ever held by the Northeast
Weld section, and while each school
was anxious to win, there was not
the sensitive rivalry Of previous
years.
We believe that II will be possible
this year for the rivals TOR honors In
this setion to be united band at the
county contests. with cheers from q
solid Pawnee delegation cheering for
every contestant representing this
section, no matter from what school
the team or student halls.
Every school should feel that the
winner, though cur rival yesterday,
is our representative In the county
meet and our champion in the larger
arena.
Is not this the year to bring about
this desirable situation?
Such a result would do wonders
to eliminate unpleasant rivalries in
the years to come.
Northeastern Weld has got to hang
together solidly. or the selfish inter-
ests at Greeley will be able to hang
onto this part Of the county forever.
These students Of today will be
the men Of influence and delegates

SENIOR CORNER
Forgetting the Past for the Present

| We live In deeds, not words. To
waste our time dreaming Of the past
with its seemingly colorful events is
an indication that VIC are not doing
the most VIC can for the present.
We must not forget the past--far
from 1t. But to spend our time en-
tirely with the past is not the high
est point of well-being. Just as the
tie Past had great problems to solve,
30 has the Pesent more important
questions, In that no one knows what
they are. II any one could look a.
head and see the culmination Of our
present affairs, perhaps one would
not think the old world such rose
colored paradise. The only remedy
is to prepare ourselves now and the
future will not bothrr US. The pres
ent is far more important than the
Past for by making the most Of the
Present We prepare for the Future.
To forget the Present for the past Is
forgetting indeed.
