Girls Entertain

Friday morning the Home Eco
Monies club acted as sponsor of the
pep rally before the home coming
game Saturday. They started the
rally out with a rousing yell, led
by three aspiring young yell lead
ers After this appropriate begin
ming, Miss Eldredge gave the as
sembly her opinion of the football
squad and roofing sections
Then came the real treat of the
morning. The two squads, all suit
ed up (if they looked a little small
for football men-give them time
after all they were only freshmen
and girls at that and gave us an
excellent preview of the game to
come.
Then followed more yells and
songs, and a talk by our superin-
tendent-Mr. Wood. The morning
ended with the whole high school
participating in yelling such as has
not been heard in that auditorium
for a long time.

ter of ceremonies, ably supported
by the Peptomists, the rally went
off much to the entertainment OF
all-and to the rousing of the spirits
of the football team.
The first thing on the program
was a speech from Carlton Joughin
on the merits of the coming game.
This was followed by yell and then
speech from an old grad, Bob
Hampton. There followed num-
Der by the Peptomists, after which
everyone's attention was attracted
to the spectacle of the Il" being
lighted up. After this had been
watched for time, the program con-
tinued with yells, speeches from old
grads and prominent citizens. per
haps the most noteworthy of these
was one from the famous future
football star"-Mr. Tommy Hayes
The evening was closed by very
enlightening resume of the various
characteristics of the members of
the football team as discovered by
those candid newspapermen - the
Pep Girls.

Last Saturday night a group of
six boys entertained the high school
at dance in the big gym.
This is the first time a group,
such as these boys, has entertained
in such a manner.
A wurlizer with a wide selection
of records furnished the music. 1t
is the first experiment of using this

WHY MEN COME HOME

"A4 WG1&N NON4A 3A~NA~
I have never wondered why
men leave home" But what is
it that keeps the average man
moving like a shuttle from his
home and his office desk-and
back to his home?
Perhaps most Of them come
home Just from force Of habit.
It becomes a purely mechanical
process and relieves a man Of
the mental exertion Of thinking
Of something else to do.
Lots of men come home be-
cause at the end Of a hard day
at the office they are too tired
to 60 anywhere else. Home is
the logical place in which to re-
lax and "be your age"
It is the only place where q
man can take Of his manners
with his office coat and be as
grouchy, as nervous or as irrita-
BILE as he feels. It takes all q
woman's tact and wheedlirg to
persuade a really tired bust
ness man" to take his mental
and physical fatigue anywhere
but "home."
Many husbands come home
these days because they haven't
the money to go anywhere else.
All men come home when they
are feeling low or '1iveriSh."
That is one time in every mar.

Pastor Protests

I wish to protest against the
action Of the authorities here
In the District Of Columbia in
arresting one Of our regularly
ordained ministers Of the re-
ligion Of spiritualism on the
charge Of telling fortunes with
out paying the $3.50 license.
In protesting against this in
tolerant action. I am speaking
not only for members Of my
church, but I speak for the
members Of all the Spiritualist
churches in the District Of Co
lumbia and what Is more for
the vast number Of SpiritualiStS
throughout the country, who are
always gravely concerned at
any attack upon their religious
rights here in the Capital City.
We Spiritualists, at a public
hearing before members Of Con-
gress some years ago, influenced
them to add an amendment to
the fortunetellihg law, which
entirely freed our regularly Or
dained ministers and their ap-
pointed representatives from its
action.

term. If he renounces ambi-
ton, he will lose control Of the
situation. If he starts groom
ing someone, the opposition will
consolidate. His game, there
fore, will be to add confusion
rather than stop it.
This means Barley is likely
to grow into a natural compro-
mise if he handles his new Sen
ate leadership right.
Farley will have to win the
New York state governorship to
gain anything more than the
veto power over the nomination,
and he is likely to do just that.
John Lewis political power
will be lesSened rather than In
creased.
Senator LaFollette will grow,
but probably not enough.
The others will get as much
delegate strength as they can
for trading purposes, and await
Mr.. RS move.
TAGUARDIA might overcome
IL his handicaps by winning
the governorship of New York
State next year, but he probably
will not even try it. The man
the wise ones really have their
eye on for that particular Re-
publican nomination is LaGuar-
dia's running mate, District At
torney-elect Dewey. His success
was more Of a surprise than he
admitted.
The Tammany crowd threw in
a towel in the LaGuardia match
a week before election. They
knew Mahoney had no chance.
but they fought and traded
against Dewey with everything
they had right down to the last
minute.

thing wrong with the story is,
Lands will never leave Harvard

Court some day and Walsh does
not intend to retire from the
Senate.
