WHO'S WHO OF
INTRODUCING CLINTON HALL, CAPTAIN
OF THE FOOTBALL TEAM
SENIOR CLASS

Clinton Hall enlisted in our
school in the ninth grade. He had
gained his previous learning at Lin
coin School. Clinton has been very
active in the athletic field. He has
worked hard to help Milford High
to win. He has played soccer for
two years, and has taken part in
class basketball for four years. Last
year when football was started
again in our school, Clinton was
one of the first to show his enthus-
iasm and willingness to play the
game. This year he was elected cap
tain of our football team and he led
the team through a very successful
season. Many of you have witness
sed some of our football games. If
so, you know what careful training
is necessary for the game. You
realize the work that our coaches
have to do and the responsibility of
a captain.
Clinton has a very close friend, or

"ouch! Say, fellow, I wish you'C
look where you are going," saiC
John.
John, you had better step back
out of the way so that you will not
get hurt. New that the students
have gone to their classes let us go
to the second story"
"You lead the way and I will fol-
low; but where is that fellow go
ing?" inquired John.
"Oh! I guess he is going in the
office to get an excuse for being a
bad boy. Listen to the sweet music,
some class must be having a sing
ing rehearsal"
eyes, hear the music; it sounds
like it is in a room at the end of
this floor," answered John. "Shall
We investigator"
Forward, comrade, but don't
make too much disturbance"
Slowly John and I made our way
to the room where the music class
was being conducted.
"The children are well trained" :"
exclaimed John, as he peeped
through the glass panel in the door.
"Yes, they sing like profession
ais" 1 replied. "Come, we do not
have much time but I would like to
see the study hall and the cafeteria
before we leave the building"
WAS this your suggestion to walk
up all these steps just to see the
study hall and the cafeteria?"
YES, a little exercise will do you
good"
Good is right, but I believe that
fellow we met on the stairs was
kidding you when he said the study
hall was on the top story" said
John.
maybe he was, but how should I
know where all the rooms are in
this building"
"Do you smell anything, John?"
"Do I smell anything! I'll say
that 1 do, and it smells mighty good.
Did you tell me that you wanted to
see the~study hall?"
"It seems to me that I did, but
let us go home and get something to
eat"

A Trip Through Milford's
NeuU High School Building
COME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF

Here we are, John, right in
front of the Milford High School
Not so bad! Huh? Three story bull
ding with about twenty-eight class
rooms besides the gym and the jan
itor's rooms. Well! Don't stand
there like a Sphinx, let us go inside
and have a look, we won't disturb
any classes"
"All right" replied his chum,
John. 81 will follow you"
Careful now, don't slam that
door," l said. "Who is that old gen.
tleman up there on the wall? He
appears very degnified and he looks
as if he knew what life was all
about"
John, you say you don't recog-
nize that man? Why take a closer
view; you know him."
"Sure, l know who it is now; it is
Colonel Theodore Townsend, the
President of the Board of Eduea-
ton"
"John, do you hear that nOise%
"Sure 1 hear it; 1 suppose that it
is in the gym, and some of the stu
dents are playing some sort of a
game"
81 would like to see another bas-
ketball game, so let us go inside and
see what they are doing.
Good day, gentlemen, won't you
come in and see our basketball
gamer politely asked Mr.. Elliott.
"Thank you; we will" I replied.
what classes are playing?"
"The two sections of the eighth
grade are fighting it out today.
Won't you have a seat and watch
the game, have got to go to give
the teams some instruction"
"Come on, John, let us watch this
game for awhile"
"All right, sit down and make
comfortable"
did you see that shot? That girl
is a wonder"
There goes bell; wonder
what that is for? 1t must be a warn
ing TO change classes. Everybody is
around. Let us go out n
he hell and see what it is all about.
Careful now, when you open the
loor. Don't let anybody run into

a chum, George Ira Clendaniel.
These two fellows came to this
school together. They seem to have
formed an everlasting friendship,
for wherever you see one you are
bound to see the other.
They often enjoy hunting to-
gether. If you would get up early
some morning and go down to the
marsh in the ducking season YOU
would probably find them on hand.
But don't get the idea that these
two chums are shooting all the
ducks; they are good sports that
just shoot at the ducks. After this
year Clinton has been thinking of
aviation. Like his friend, George, he
is thinking of entering Government
service. So in the future, when
Gercplanes take the place Of auto
mobiles and you want to spend a
night in Parish get in touch with
Clinton.

Into this quaint old town about
the year 1880 when hospitality was
our important feature; when mas
sa called de slaves in de con field"
a man came galloping on a horse
dressed in a long cloak and the ira
ditional knee breeches of the day.
Before the house of the Rev. Daniel
Goodwin, the local Methodist minis
ter, who was famous then for the
open house he kept for ministers,
the tired, dusty rider hesitated.
Immediately Mr.. Goodwin came out
on the threshold and invited the
weary traveller to come in and par
take of the evening meal. "Rev. Cod
win, 1 presume?" the traveller spoke,
Francis Asbury for the cause of
Methodism in America"
"Francis Asburyl" The minister
staggered back. Gaining control of
his sense, Rev. Goodwin again as
serted his hospitality. Indeed, it
seems to the little minister that it
was quite an honor for the first
Bishop of Methodism in America to
choose to stay at his home.

Sixth Grade FoLIouU
Widely Varied Interests
STUDY EGYPT AND MIDDLE AGES

The pupils of Miss Kitchens sixth
4grade section are studying "The
Middle Ages" This includes a re-
view of the knights of the Middle
Ages" and the story how they be-
came knights. Each student wrote
a very interesting paragraph about
the Beudal System. They are now
prepared to start the next chapter
which is the "The Growth of the
English Nation"
This same section is studying the
continent of Africa in geography.
In addition to this, Egyptian pic
lures are being drawn. Five girls
are making an Egyptian transporta-
tion frieze, showing the evolution of
travel in Egypt long ago. They are

Milford Quintette
Defeats Greenwood

After our girls had set the exam
pie by beating Greenwood opponents
on Friday, January 16, the bsys fol-
lowed suit and won their game too,
by a score of 20 to 10. The game
was not particularly fast and was
rather slowed up by fouls.
The game started with a field goal
for Greenwood just as soon as the
ball left the referees hands. If a
good beginning makes bad end
ing, Coach Avery Wright's chances
shouldn't have flashed off like that.
Warned by that first spirit Clendan-
iel and Watson both jumped in and
scored. Then the local boys pulled
away for a four point lead at the
end of the first quarter, which was
never lessened but grew to ten
point advantage before the hour
was over.
Because of illness and scholastic
difficulties that involved a number
of the regular players, Coach Elliott
sent a rather different organization
out Friday night. The original line
up included Roosa, Watson, Glen
daniel, Smoot and Wintjen, with
Sapp and Hall going in during the
second half.
In the last part of the last quar-
ter Clendaniel again made two beau-
tiful shots from mid-court to put
Milford to a good lead which they
kept until the finish of the game.
was only able to score
one field goal in the last half.

FRANCIS ASBURY
ONCE STA YED
IN MILFORD

Ezra" he called, take the horse.
The long, dusty ride must have ev-
hausted you, sir"
"Still enthusiastic over my work.
l am now almost convinced that the
people of America will take hold of
Methodism as no other people have
DONE" Asbury's face frightened. His
inspiration for his work seemed to
erase even the tired lines from his
face.
Thus the writer imagines Francis
Asbury's entry into our town so
many years ago.
Several decades afterward Mrs.
Allie Reed recalls going to her
grandmother Godwin's house, which
was probably not the house that AS
bury stayed in, and seeing a large
portrait.
"Who is the man in the picture?"
she would ask and always came the
answer, "Francis Asbury." Either at
the time of his visit about 1880 or
later he must have given
this treasurer portrait to Rev. Cod
win.

Noon Games Afford Good
Chance For Yell Practice
sOphs Look Like Champs

Our school cheer-leader, Town
send Parvis, takes advantage of the
pupils at noon hours by hSlding
"yell practice" in the auditorium
while the games are going on. He
had large sheets of paper printed
full of yells for the students to learn
so that the building will ring with
voices during the real games on
Tuesday and Friday nights.
Thursday and Monday of last
week were two "off days" for the
Juniors and Seniors. On Thursday
the Juniors were beaten by the
Sophomores (who picked their team
from their class and the freshmen)
with a score of 9-3. The lineup
was as follows:
Juniors-Center, H. Roosa; guards:
P. Morgan and H. Bunstein; for
wards, G.. Robbins and C. Hayes.
Sophomores-Center, P. Watson;
guards, R. Christensen and C.
Marvel; forwards, G.. Smoot and
J. Whaley.
On Friday the Sophomore boys
beat the Senior boys by a score of

Junior Bake
Money Pays For FDead Horse
Saturdays Sale Successful

Last Saturday, the sixteenth, the
Junior Glass of Milford, held a very
successful bake in Stayton's Radio
Shop. The students and friends of
the class donated pies, cakes and
rolls. Others stayed at the shop and
did the selling.
The cakes and pies looked and
smelled so good that almost every
body who went by the shop stopped
and looked in.
In all, seventeen dollars and for
ty-one cents ($17.4D was taken in.
This money will be used to help re-
place the money belonging to the
class which was stolen before the
class rings were ordered. To be sure
it is no fun working to pay for a
dead horse" But the class as a
whole has displayed excellent spir-

On January II, 1882, this section
had a debate. 1t was, Resolved,
That Dogs Can Think" The girls
had the affirmative and the boys had
the negative. The girls won. A
great deal of fun was had discussing
the pros" and CONS"
Recently, each pupil decided to
read a good book. Miss Barker most
kindly assisted them in selecting an
enjoyable story. Attractive covers
were made for the books. Free-hand
drawing and the use of crayons
were put into practice. Some of the
books read were: Tom Sawyer,
Treasure Island, Little Woman,
Heidi and Alice in Wonderland.

Eighth Graders Try
To Comprehend Ways
Of Political Parties
Manifest Real Interest In CiIics

We have been studying some very
important topics in civics.
We are now studying and inter-
viewing people about the changes in
our Government in the City of Mil
ford.
We are collecting interesting top
les about men who are going to run
for Presidency in the United States.
Some very interesting things have
been brought into our civics class
about the two political parties.
Each one in our civics class is en-
titled to give a report on a current
event, once every month.
These few topics would not be
complete unless we. knew what a
political party was.
A political party may be defined
as a group of people of similar po-
litical opinions, who have organized
for the purpose of making their
principles the policy of the Govern
ment.
Since the basketball season has
started our girls have played three
games, and have not lost any so far.
Section 83 has challenged us for
smelling "B." for next Wednesday

birds nest soup and salad, and
shark fins. The old eggs are sup
posed to be two or three hundred
years old and look like black olives.
DR.. Layton ate five and asked the
man beside him how old they really
were. The man said, 81 don't know"
but DR.. Layton ate his sixth one
just the same. The birds nest soup
and salad are great delicacies, and
are made from the swallows nest.
This swallow, a native of Siam,
builds its nest from bamboo leaves,
but that is not what the Japanese
eat. When the bird pastes the
leaves together and sticks them to
wall or tree, it uses the saliva
from its mouth and that it what
makes the soup or the salad so pop
ular in Japan. AS for the shark fins
they are merely dried until stiff and
brittle and then boiled for several
days until they look (and taste) like
Pages Glue. That might suit the
taste of a Japanese but it's rather
hard on the poor American.
Besides Toxic. DR.. Layton visited
several mountain resorts, among
them Miyamosphpa where the king
of Siam visited. Then, after attend
ing to business in Japan, he sailed
from Kobe on the Empress of Can
ada for Manila. On the way he stop
ped for two days at Shanghai, and
for two days at HOng-Kong. He
stayed two and a half days in Man
lila to see to business there and then
sailed back again to HOng-Kong and
This time he spent a |
week in the latter city and enjoyed
every minute of that time. Shanghai |
is known as the International City |
because so much of the business of |
both the east and west is carried on |
there. Its buildings, although not |
very tall, can be favorably compar-
ed with those of any modern Amer
ican city. It boasts an even temper
ature almost all year round, and |
DR.. Layton says if you stayed there
six months you'd never want to
leave. Perhaps later more infor-
nation about this beautiful city can
be printed.
From Shanghai, DR.. Layton re-
turned to Toxic, and then came
home from Yokohama on the Japan
ese ship, Chicibumaru. On the way
home, he made a stop at Honolulu
which he describes as the loveliest
spot in the world and just outside of
heaven. Then he came on TO San
Francisco and Los Angeles, visited
he Grand Canyon, Chicago, Phila-
lelphia and finally returned to Mil
ord.
DR.. Layton travelled about $4,000
niles and spent forty-four days on
he ocean. He says he would never
with anyone who was
ient to the Orient. They would have
I'll the comforts of home while see
ng the other side of the world. He
Ilso thanks his Japanese manager
or entertaining him so well, and he
kinks Japan is a wonderful little
country. Yoo-hoo, Mr.. Moriya!

Counterfeit Quarters Are
Circulating Through
The State
Neither Cafeteria Has Received
Counterfeit Quarters

Last week an announcement was
carried through school, stating that
number of counterfeit quarters
are circulating through the State.
Everyone was told to examine all
the quarters that he received to
make sure that they were not coun-
terfeits. A counterfeit quarter will
bend just like lead, and it does not
have a date on it,
So far neither the cafeteria at the

school have received any counter
