A Time For Profound Study

Next week will begin the last six
weeks period of the school year.
This period, to some students, may
mean passing or failure; in the case
of failure the cause may be due to
a sort of spring fever, but passing
must be due to hard work.
Last six weeks the seniors, as
class, were very low in their grades.
We have never been seniors, but we
can imagine that the same rule APP
plies to them as to under classmen.
The fact that failure comes from lack
of work ought to be a good argument
why the seniors should work. How
many of the seniors desire to spend
another year in high school?
The, seniors are not the only ones
in need of advice-no one of the stu
dents is too perfect to take a bit of
advice. We do know how it is to be
a freshman, and can say that they
must work now as they have never
worked before.
The standard of high school is
based on the number of failures, so
let's all get busy and raise the STAN
dard of our high school higher than
it has been in other years.
The Junior class play given on
March twenty-first was a great sue
cess. We base the success of the
play on the way 1t was appreciated
by the crowd. We wish to thank
the public for a record breaking
attendance.

The pupils and teachers are work
ing very enthusiastically to produce
an exceptional entertainment, for
they desire the public to support
their purpose.
The proceeds will be expended for
the purpose of putting the school
stage in condition to accommodate
class plays and miscellaneous pro-
auctions. For this reason we hope
the students and patrons will make
this community project.

A RELIGIOUS DRAMA :, TO RE PRESENTED

Thursday evening at, ;15. .o' clock in the auditorium of the Sunday school building of the First Methodist church, the department of religious drama will present a play entitled "A Plea for Stewardship" under the direction of Miss Annabel Stith. ~
 There will be two plays with large number of characters taking part in each. Special musical numbers on the program will add to its wealth as an entertainment feature.
 This is the occasion of the weekly screen production, put on by the re ,ligious drama department, but is. a deviation somewhat, since the play to- < night will be the first of its type in a good while.
 Last Thursday evening The Hoosier Schoolmaster," reel in five parts, was shown to a large audience, and many were the complimentary expressions received by the department from this production. Previous pictures have been equally praised,
 The subjects of the plays for to- night are: Starting Right" Aunt Tillie Learns To Thithe, aRd Bobby Shaffo Goes to Sea" They all part of "A Plan for Stewardship and are expected to come up to the usual stand ard of the Thursday evening programs.
 Directors of the various plays in or der named, are Mrs. Harry Wiselogle, Myrtle R. Creasmani and Miss Alice Graham. Manly well known ladies in the social and religious circles of the city will have leading roles in this pre- sentation and the public is cordially in- vited to attend the entertainment. The admission is free, and you are asked to be- one of the lucky persons at this performance. Remember the place and time. !. s<.r

CHAPTER sS
By yiRsIMIA rgRHuNE VAN oe wArgn

It was no wonder George exclaimed at the beauty of the waltz-music, Marian reflected as her partner led her out upon the floor. Then, as she felt his arm about .her, she let herself be carried away by the sound and rhyth- mic motion. She forgot her nervous ness, her depression, everything but the joy of dancing with such a partner and to such music. t
 It was always so with her when she danced. She seemed to herself to be floating in a world of harmony. Now she closed her eyes and let her partner lead her where he would.
 As the music ceased she drew a long sigh and looked up at DeLisle. His face was beaming with approval.
 "Mais, Mademoiselle, je. vous remer- cie--I thank you for the pleasure you have given me! am more than happy to think that you are to be here regu- larly. know you will mean big sue cess for me and for my salon."
 She smiled at his enthusiasm. He must have been pleased with her to forget that it is the part of wisdom not to praise too highly the person to whom one pays a salary.
 "I hope I shall not disappoint you" was all she said.
 Which, from business viewpoint, was not a wise speech either. g.
 As her partner, with a low bow, left her at the little table where her escort and his companion awaited her, both men rose and remained standing until she was seated. For a moment neither said a word, but the girls quick glance detected the expression of triumph on her friends face and of admiration in the eyes of the stranger. It was he who spoke first. .t..
 Il wonder" he ventured, eff you will think me'guilty of exagseration if I say that your dancing is singularly grace full, Miss White. No!" as she tried to utter a protest-"hear me out! I have

 Dear Miss Dix--I am puzzled as to or not should tell the boy to whom I am engaged that I am stout. We haven't Seen each other for quite a while and during his absence I had put on lot of flesh. I am almost afraid to tell him for lot of fellows don't like fat girls and he may be one of them. Please tell me what to do.

 Answer: As you cannot marry your man, sight unseen, I do not see how you can conceal from him the fact that you have better break the sad news to him by letter.
 7 It is true that very few men love a fat woman in these days when the ideal lady love has lean and hun gry look. So my advise to you is to go on a diet and reduce. There is no excuse except laziness. and self-in- dulgence for girl being fat. Quit eating so much. Count your calories, omit the sweets and starches and the fats from your dietary, and you won't be afraid to meet your sweetheart.
