Miss Sturdevant's English II
class has made number of at
tractive projects from their study
of "Idylls of the King" Among
the best is a large poster on which
are the cplored pictures Of a
knight on horseback, representing
the tenth to the fourteenth CEN
turtles, and of a stalwart outdoor
youth of today. Under each pic
ure, Leo Joe Lauterbach, the orr
ginator, has drawn up a code OF
words for the ideal manhood Of
the past and of 1887. We conclude
that it takes fundamentally the
same qualities to make a true
gentleman whether we live In
1887 or 1887.
