Opinions from Here and There.

Question: Do you feel that the peo-
pie in Libby High are discourteous to
faculty members and guest speakers,
or should such conduct be expected OF
them
Background. We are offering this
question to find out what some of the
students think Of their courtesy as
compared to that Of other schools.
Vivian thinner: think some are
very discorteous to guest speakers
There are some students who haven't
any manners at all, but who could Ger
tainly use some,
Elmer Anderson: think some of the
pupils are TOO discourteous, but some
teachers expect too much. The pupils
should have some way to get work
done when their study periods are TAX
en- up by speeches.
Shirley Sansavere. think the pu-
pills in this school are more courteous
to their teachers than in other schools.
believe that all conduct could be inn
proved upon when we have speakers.
Charles Skranak: I think three
fourths Of the pupils are decidedly dis
courteous both to faculty members and
to speakers.
Clarice Risley. think this school
is good example Of good conduct. |
find this school surpasses others have
attended
MIR. Crane: | find that the pupils are
much more courteous in this school
than others | have seen. think cour-
tesy consists of thoughtfulness for
others and for what they are. 1t is the
little things in the contacts we make
with other people that make or break
US After all courtesy is the quality
that is appreciated most by both stu
dents and faculty.

Practice

With the county and district track
and field meet only week away the
Terriers still stand at handicap be-
cause of the poor practice weather. The
20 men who have been turning out for
track every night have been forced to
spend most of the time in the big gym,

corning the men who viii participate in
this meet. We can only tell what per-
sons will be outstanding in the events
for which they have been participating.
However, this meet is open to any one
who wishes to turn out and there are
great possibilities that some dark horse
will step in and surprise everyone.
The outstanding distance men will be
Hanson and Nolop. Hanson, who is a
senior is now two year letterman
in track. having placed in the distance
runs both his sophomore and junior
years. Nolop, sophomore, was run
ner-up in last years county meet, but
he did not make enough points to earn
himself letter
Li.by middle distance men are Lar
son, a junior, and Darlington, fresh
man. both of these men are new to the
sport in Libby High, but despite their
inexperience they both show promise
Libby has no men for the dashes.
In the jumps we claim Hayden,
Klehm. Hampton, Fowler. Woodruff
and Hanson. From this list Hanson
and Klehm will be the outstanding
men in the broad jump; Woodruff,
Hayden and Fowler will compete for
first in the pole vault, and Hampton,
Hayden and Klehm will be the main
contestants in the high jump
Stickney, Darlington, Fowler and
! Klehm will throw the weights.

You might be interested to know
that your local product, verniculite Is

explanation of ceramics, which. as he
stated. involves high temperatures and
products made from earth materials.
The products are common. and the
value comes from what IS done to
them"
Following his talk to the assembly

I'VE don't wish to be like policemen
to you, but if people are going to con-
tinue to skip school during the last
period, discipline will have to come
into effect This was the sum and
substance OF the warning Mr. Hayes
gave the high school last week.
For the past several weeks few of
the students have found it unnecessary
to attend school the last period If they
did not have a class. For this reason
they have taken the period off without
the consent of any faculty member or
an excuse from their parents. To curb
such action was the motive behind the
assembly talk by Mr.. Hayes last Friday
Some of the students in Libby High
have, not only in this instance, but in
many instances, shown their inability
to rule themselves
People who know say that the
amount of courtesy one is accustomed
to using may be tested in almost any
emergency IF such be the case we
possess very little courtesy, in almos
all of the emergencies we meet we fai
to respond favorably
Courtesy is not part of the schoo
curriculum, but it is one of the funda-
mentals of successful living and, don
forget, school is life.
