GOVERNOR STILL OPPOSES
HIGHWAY BOND ISSUE

Governor Theodore Christensen
still is opposed to the issuance of
$40, 100000 in bonds for trunk high
ways, he said in a statement Wednes-
day.
He issued the statement, he said,
because of reports he has changed his
views.
Extensive campaigning has been
staged recently in an effort to get
the bond issue approved at the coming
session Of the legislature. Along
with that proposal is a demand for an
increase in the gasoline tax. The gov
ernor has indicated he would approve
1 cent increase in the tax, but
whether he would stand for cent
tax has not yet been disclosed.
Detailed discussion of highway
matters will be included in his mes
sage to the legislature, Governor
Christensen said. Meanwhile, be-
cause of the reports being circulated,
he issued the following statement:
cit has come to my attention that,
as an aid to propaganda for reports
are being circulated to the effect
that 1 have changed my views and
withdrawn my opposition to increased
indebtedness.
"Such statements are entirely un-
authorized and without foundation.
Nor is it true that this office has been
deluged with correspondence on the
subject.
1T is not my purpose to enter into
a discussion of the highway question
until / deliver my message to the le-
gislature. In the meantime, I would
caution the people of the state from
paying too much attention to reports
that I have executed an 'about-face'."

Why Attend High School?

The student or students Of today
are attending high school for both in
dividual and general reasons.
Let US take the business or the
earning of a. living viewpoint. The
average student of today knows that
all business is run on scientific has,
is. He must have at least high
school education in order to be some
thing or someone and has very little
chance of being a success without it.
1t is not hard today to get high
school education as the jump between
the grades and the high school is
very small. Students do not really
look at it in this manner until the
idea is put into their heads by teach
ers, parents and other advisors, and
henceforth they consider this just as
much of necessity of life as the air
we breathe. The student can also
see this necessity by considering the
fact that almost any job requires a
high school education, and high ideals
for a higher vocation would require
more than a high school education.
Therefore the student or future citi-
zen of today surely does and must
have reason for going to high school.
Nothing tried equals nothing gain

The Bookkeeping class has held in
terest for everyone the past two
weeks. We are working on set in
which the business papers were used.
Most of the students have had some
difficulty in keeping the special jour
nal and in filing the business papers.
Everything has been smothed out
, now, and the spirit of depression
which prevailed has passed over. We
will all join in saying bookkeeping is
a practical and interesting subject.
The American History classes are
taking up the study of the nation
and its sections, which will lead even
tually to the Civil War. This study
holds more attention the nearer we
get to the present.
The English Nv students are still
sinking deeper into the study of
Macbeth" The tragedy grows
more interesting while we gather
points as on we go.
In Social Science we have entered
well into the study of Economics and
we are at present studying about
credit, international trade and mer-
chant marines. AS we go further
into our study of Economics we get
better understanding of now orr
government is run.
The pupils of the high school have
missed the presence of Miss Jacob
sen who has been confined to her
home with an attack of the flu.

Debate Team Win League Debate.

batting team received a judges de-
cision of 2-1 over the Renville Mega
tive team on Tuesday evening on the
question: Resolved that the United
States should cease to protect by
armed force domestic capital invest
ments in foreign lands without for
NAL declaration of war. The debate
which was lively from beginning to
end was held in the Senior high
school assembly before a small gath
ering. Freda Laudon, Erma Samp-
son and Blanche Newman were the
Redwood trio who brought victory to
their school, The Renville high
school who last year won the district
championship was represented by
Georgette Vein, Helen Dvorak and
Phillip Moliter. Supt. L. A. Levine
of Sleepy Eye judged the debate.
The coaches at the Redwood Falls
and Renville schools respectively are
Melvin Voxland and Miss Dorothy
Stanley.
The winning team argued that the
United States should cease to adhere
to it's present policy (D because Of
its resultant evils, (2) because ii is
unnecessary, (3) better plan of ac-
ton if possible. The negative held
the present policy to be necessary,
more beneficial, more practicable.
The Renville team is to be especially
complimented on their stage presence
and convincing manner of delivery.

Vacation.

To most people the slogan is three
shopping days before Christmas. To
the high school student the slogan is
1 day left before Christmas.
Some people let their shopping go
until the last few days, even to the
last hours. This is tvpica. Of the
average American. So it is with
some pupils who have put off difficult
school work until the last few days
before Christmas.
It is not so with the student. Stu
dents are people, who are eager to
learn, according to Webster's Un-
abridged Dictionary. 1t is not en-
pected then that student will have
any worries over Christians Vacation
about work that was not done. But
how about those few who can be
called only pupils?
They are fortunate that they have
a few more days left before the final
shopping takes place. Namely, on
January 25, they must have bought
for themselves presents in the form,
of marks of blue and not red.
What feeling is there greater than
the knowledge that one is doing. good
square, honest work in all branches
of life?
Stop, now and analyze the feeling
that one will have on January 25, and
let it be a stimulus to do better work
Il y
ticipated During vacation is the
time to make new resolutions. See
that they are profitable and joyful
rather than detrimental and remorse-
full.
Come back to school on January q.
and call yourself student, not mere
ly a pupil.
