ATHLETICS

ATHLETICS
In almost all schools some atten-
ton is given to athletics. In our
school the same is true. We believe
in athletics as a help but not as a
substitute for learning. We have al
ways turned out very creditable
basketball team of boys. During the
past year our school board has given
encouragement to other kinds OF
games which would interest a larger
number OF students. We now have
equipment for volley ball, cage ball
and tennis. The boys also play some
baseball and football among them
serves but due to location and ex-
pense have not arranged games with
other schools. Athletics should be
an encouragement to better scholar
ship. Some have expressed the
thought that we should pass students
in their book subjects because they
have spent considerable time in bas-
ketball or class plays. These actiy-
tiles are optional on the students
part and are meant to make his
school life more broad and interest
ing. They are not given for school
credit and if a student cannot take
part and do his school work he
should leave them alone. AS mat
ter of fact, however, almost any
student has time for both and to
blame them for interference with
school work is only way of lodging
responsibility.
SOCIAL LIFE
1t is natural and right to expect
that students have some time for So
cial affairs. Under present condi-
lions there are few who do not have
enough social activity and many
that have so much that they cannot
fid time for the real work OF life. If
home. school, church, lodge and
other organizations could unite in
the plan to confine all social activ-
titles to Friday and Saturday nights
many boys and girls would be much
better students and could find more
time for more useful work at home.
Many students are so wrapped up in
social pleasures of various kinds and
in thinking and planning for them
that little energy is left for the SER
ious work of life.
We now have situation where
grade children take part in public
dances and other parties along with
adults. 1t is nothing unusual to have
young girls stay out of school in the
forenoon because they have been out
to a dance the night before. In high
school the day after a week night
dance is very noticeable because OF
poor lessons and sleepy students. The
strain of night life is too great for
students who are supposed to be put
ting their energies into school work.
Parents have the authority to pre-
vent this condition and it is hoped
that they will help to put more SER
ious things first. The loss in school,
however, may not be as serious as are
the habits formed in such night par
ties.

SCHOLARSHIP

It has already been asserted that
the student who is a problem in dis
cipline at school is laying the foun-
dation for trouble after he leaves
school. 1t is just as true on the other
hand that the obedient studious
student is laying the foundation for
a successful life after he leaves
school. Industry, promptness, re-
liability and courtesy help to bring
success in school and when such
habits are acquired there they will
be a great help in after life. Few
of our students are lacking in natural
ability to do good school work. In
difference, bad habits of various
kinds, irregular attendance and poor
health are largely responsible for
poor scholarship.
The Freshman class in high school
has more failures than the other
three classes combined. The failures
Of this year and the next two are Of

blamed when he fails to graduate.
Teachers would like very much to
avoid this condition of affairs and
not be called upon to whitewash
some student who has done every
thing but attend to his school work
so as not to embarrass him or his
parents at commencement time.
While calling attention to this type
of student we are aware that we
have many who do their full duty
and who are now rejecting credit
upon themselves in their work in
higher institutions of learning and
in the business world. They are a
joy to their parents and an honor to
their town and school, We want
more of them and viii try to help
turn out more.
OUR PURPOSE
The public school is established to
give secular education and help to
educate intelligent, patriotic Ameri-
can citizens. This institution was
not originally intended to solve all
problems or take over all the duties
that other institutions found too ex-
pensive or too burdensome. The pub

Women Make Better
Listeners Than Men

About the worst lecture audience
one can find is an audience made up of
the inhabitants of the average medium
sized industrial city. The mark of the
machine is on such people. Their spon-
taneity is withered, their originality
killed.
Their faces are burdened with the
heavy dullness engendered by the
monotony of the occupations to which
they are tied. Subtleties of argument
are wasted on them and they are i'm
pervious to all humor except the slap
stick kind
An agricultural audience is superior
to an Industrial one in intelligence, in
sympathy, in tolerance. in every quail
ity which lecturer values in an audi
ence. And most Of the 5000 or 5000
towns which every year are visited by
lecturers are agricultural towns.
There is, however, one audience bet
ter than an assemblage of farmers and
their wives, and that Is the audience
provided by the average social or liter
airy club. When it is womans club
this Is, indeed, the best audience in
America. 1t is distinctly superior, for
Instance, to the average mems club for

ties" President Roosevelt placed the
forest under the protection of the gov
eminent, designating it ''The Petrified
Forest National monument'-for the
perpetual enjoyment of the people.
Here, at an elevation of about one
mile above sea level, lying in the open
and scattered over thousands of acres
and in all conceivable positions, is
profusion of millions of tons of fallen
trees turned to stone-agate, jasper,
opal-"the most brilliant aggregation
of jewels on the globe" The dominat-
ing feature is natural bridge formed
by a petrified trunk of agate and jas

canyon.
How come? The solution of that
question has puzzled the greatest stu
dents of the structure of our earth,
the physical changes which it has un-
dergone, and the causes which have
operated to produce these changes.
The general supposition seems to
be that in time far beyond the reach
of record-a million or more years
ago, a giant woodland f1ourished here
Some great catastrophe. most likely
an earthquake, moved it down and, in
the reshaping of the earth's crust. an
inland lake or sea was formed above
this sunken forest. Seepage from
springs of salt, sulphur and other min
eral content penetrated every fiber of
this wood-the prolonged period of
saturation gradually picking the
wood to stone.
At length, another age was ushered
In. An upheaval as tremendous as 1t
was mysterious awakened this sleep
ing, this forgotten forest and it was
belched up to the top of the earth

There are three divisions of this
forest. The first, famous for its bright
colors, is six miles from Adamana;
the second is two and one-half miles
farther on. Here the trees are large

ored; the third is ten and one-half
miles farther southwest and by reason
of the striking colors has earned To-

FANEUIL HALL
!. western Newsnaper Unlon.l

Faneuil hall, named for Peter
Faneuil, a public-spirited citizen and
Huguenot, who, having decided that
Boston needed a town hall in which
to hold public gatherings, and a mar
ket place, commenced the construc-
ton of building 76 feet square which
combined these features, and present
ed 1t to the city in 1742.
Twenty years later, the interior
was destroyed by fire, but was prompt
ly rebuilt and dedicated to the cause
of Liberty"
The present building goes back to
1906, when its size was increased to
so by 100 feet and an additional story
added. The upper floor is used now
as headquarters and a museum by
the Ancient and Honorable Artillery.
Company of Observation-Disclosures to
be the oldest military organization in
the world Among the priceless relics
is flag used in 1868 by this organiza-
ton. The second floor contains the
hall which may be used as public
meeting place by any group OF cltl
zens, free of charge, on request to the
city authorities.
During the Revolutionary war peri.
cd, Faneui hall was the scene OF
many tense gatherings. The hall was
used as a place of amusement and
entertainment by the officers OF the
British army in 1775 and 1776. Ever
since the Revolution, it has been
popular gathering place and noted
place for the holding of meetings,
banquets and receptions. Its walls
have echoed the voice of Daniel Web

famous patriots Of >the time
Situated adjacent to the old State

this comfortable-looking structure OF
colonial design, bearing evidence of
advanced age, is possessed of a dig

original beauty for another generation
or two at least. While this work is.
