FROM OTHER SCHOOLS


In q recent issue of the Sage
brush, we read of the nominations
in the Reno High School for Stu
dent Body officers, and among them
is Bernard Hartung, who was here
last spring on the track team, and
those who were in Reno at the time
Of the basketball tournament will
laso have reason to remember him,
for his work in the position of stand
ing guard was very creditable; in
fact, he was chosen as substitute
for that position on the all-state
team.
In a recent issue Of the Review
Miner, edited by w. C. Black, form
erly of this city, we notice that the
high school notes of that city are
edited by Gladys Forsyth, whom we
well remember, as she was on the
basketball team, and has visited
here several times. The notes were
interesting to read and we compli-
ment Gladys on her editorial efforts.
They perfectly reflect the sentiment
in the school, and are a credit to it.
From Elko, and. published in the
Elko Free Press, comes a copy of
the E. H. S. Exhaust, fortnightly
high school section, edited by the
Business English and English w
classes of the Elko High School
The section is very interesting to
read, and as for literary and edi-
torial merit, it ranks high. Among
the more interesting items therein, a
section is set aside for the reports
of the campaigns carried on by two
factions which oppose each other in
the school. These parties are called
Republicans and Democrats, and
regular student government, which
is practically entirely in the hands
of the students themselves, controls
these parties. All the various offices
and political fights run true to form.
in this organization, and it is very
interesting to notice how ably the
students take hold of the various
problems before them and make
things snap. Rallies are held and
stump speeches made. In this way,
the students are brought into actual
contact with political affairs, and
the Student Government adds ma
terially to the interest created in
the students in regard to the real
government of our land.
During the campaigns, each party
puts out a campaign newspaper,
printed on the mimeograph, and
these certainly are interesting too.
Student Government in Elko High
School has proven a successful
proposition, and if it is entered into
with the right spirit by the students,
much good can be obtained from it.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Devoted County High
INTERCLASS BASKETBALL
BY Elmer Lyon


Last Friday night, the basketball
season started with a rush, when
the Juniors and Seniors met in
deadly conflict on the gym. floor.
The game served to show many
of the defects and help the coach to
get line on them SO that he could
remedy faults while practicing for
future games.
Take it from us, folks, those
Juniors sure have a snappy little
basketball team. When it comes to
sure passing and good floor work,
they take the barbed wire garters.
And the Seniors are not to be
underestimated, either. With a little
more practice together, they will
have a team not to be given the
razzberry. The Juniors have had the
advantage of playing together prac-
tically a whole season, while the
Senior team was somewhat divided
up last year, and did not have 80
much practice together.
The Seniors took handicap Of
making four points to every three
that their opponents made. When
the game ended the score stood
thirteen to eighteen. This, when
figured out, seems to indicate that
the Seniors had the Juniors bested
about one-half point. Several of
them tried to convince US that when
figured out exactly, it amounted to
about three-eigths. 1t behooved us
at the time to entirely agree with
them, but now we challenge them
to prove it.
1t is rumored that the Junior
team is to go to Battle Mountain
next Friday or Saturday to engage
with their old opponents of last
year, the Sparkplugs. Let's send
them up there with a good sendoff
and welcome them back with the
right spirit, win or lose. But right
here, let's get it out of our heads
that they are going to lose, or even
come near losing. For with their
practice together, and with the vari-
Gus class teams, they have a better
chace of winning than they did
last year, when they took a trip to
that city.
Let's go, you Juniors. We want
to see you do your stuff. Well be
roofing for you, and if mental tele-
pathy will do any good, you ought
to win by about fifty points, if they
keep you down to that.
The boys who ordered gymnasium
equipment have received their vari-
Gus orders, and we must say that
the freshman jerseys of black and
orange don't look bad at all. Not
saying that the rest of them do not
look good in their new jerseys also.

SENIOR CLASS
Ru Eilaon Sultan

There are eighteen in the senior
class of this year. All members of
last years junior class except Ray
Moore, Frances Pearce, Ronald La
Voy and Florence O'Brien. However
we have three new members, Ida
Gregg, Louise Van Drielan and Sc
gunda Laucerica.
Although eighteen does not seem
very large class, in this instance
it is quality" instead of quantity.
Seven girls and all boys of the
senior class, with the exception of
Joe Organ are out for basketball.
Joe was injured in track a year ago
and did not give up until now. He
played on last years team, however,
and he would this year if possible.
Friday evening there was basket
bal game between the juniors and
seniors, in which the seniors won by
five points.

Mr.. Walker has an exceptionally
large Spanish / class this year, there
being thirty-six students in all. 1t is
divided into two groups, group A,
md group B. There is no difference
iii the standing of the students of

ter of convenience to the students
themselves, who are unable to at
tend one division, because of other
subjects conflicting, but find it
agreeable to attend the other sec

STUDENTS AND THEIR WORK


/ By the time this number of the
Humboldt reaches our readers, the
reports of the first school month will
be in the hands of the students.
For the most part, the work has
been quite satisfactory. The attitude
of the students has been excellent
and considerable amount of work
has been accomplished. On the part
of both faculty and students a spirit
of cooperation has manifested itself
and is evident in the kindly relations
that are being maintained.
However, it occurs here, as in
other schools that some of the
students do not make the maxi
mum effort if they feel that they
may be permitted to get by" with
the minimum amount of production.
Against this very thing, it is the
purpose of this note to sound a
warning.
The statement has been made that
the public school-especially high
schools not a business organiza-
ton because it does not pay divi-
dends. Monetary dividends, certainly
not! But think moment. Surely
there should be dividends il there
be capital invested. There is capital
invested-the student body. The
dividend returned to the parent
investor is the training the child re-
ceives while in school and the rate
Of dividend is the application the
student puts forth to acquire--or
call that student investment, raw
material If you will. The thoroughly
trained faculty and the supplies re-
CURED are the machinery and tools
for turning out the finished product
the graduated student. The degree
of accomplishment must show itself
in the actions and individuality of
that finished product.
By reason of the points just en-
phasized we wish to assure you
parents that no student in this high
school, whatever. his rank, will re-
ceive credit for work done, unless
that work is well done and the in
structor conscientiouslS feels the
student entitled tothat credit.
Again, the faculty desires to call
TO the attention of the parents of
our students, that these same stu
dents are here in HUMBOLDT County
High School for a definite purpose
the acquisition of such training as
will best adapt them either for
practical work after leaving school
"a dread and butter" proposition
or for a continuation of that
training in some higher institution
Of education. Will these same par
ents help the faculty, by the closest
possible examination of their chill
dren's reports, to arrive at this
greatest degree of benefit for their
children?
1t is the intention of the faculty
to keep the patrons of the school
closely and directly advised of any
dereliction of duty of these same
students either in preparation of
their work or in any other matter
of detail worthy of comment.
Now parents, you are vitality in
terested in the progress of your
children, will you only confer with
the instructors or the principal of
your High School that the closest
cooperation may be maintained and
the greatest service be rendered to
all-patron, pupils and instructors?

BOYS BASKET BALL
By Ben Myers


The progress being made by the
boys is far from what could be de-
sired, although most of the boys
who played last. year are out for
basket ball again this year. The
practice games seem to be pep-less
as though the boys were not enjoy
ing the games themselves, alto
gether there is not the enthusiasm
among the boys there has been in
the former years. There is a cause
for this, and the cause must be
found and remedied or our team
will have about as much chance of
winning the championship as the
proverbial SNOWFALL.

GIRLS BASKET BALL
By Ben Myers

Progress being made by the girls
basket ball team, under the coaching
of Miss Gleason, seems very favor
able according to a report that
reached US. All girls who are able to
do so are out for practice, giving
Miss Gleason an opportunity to OBJ
serve them and pick out those she
wishes to have on the first team for
the coming season. Miss Gleason
has some very fine material to work
with and with the cooperation of
the girls she should be able to de-
velop winning team this year.
