Editorial

Good books are like good friends.
They are ones companions and can
be of great service to person. Our
library contains many good fiction
books as well as text and reference
books. The teachers are encourag-
ing the pupils to read as many good
books as they can. Reading is a very
worthwhile and pleasant way Of
spending ones leisure time. With
the use of machinery the working day
has been greatly decreased and more
leisure time is available and it is well
that we learn in school how to use
our spare time to good advantage so
that when we get out of school and
have extra time we know how to best
use it. Literature has been intro
duced into our English courses and
we learn how to judge books and
what type we should read. Besides
learning many things from reading,
we can derive much pleasure and en-
joyment.

Whatever the explanation may be,
French names, many of them old
French, and particularly n C k
names, are undergoing an Ameri-
canization process. This tendency
is noticeable on the stage, in re-
cent books, and particularly in real
life, says a Paris correspondent in
the New York Times. If French
boys name is Richard, in all prob
ability he will be called Dick by
his friends. Robert easily becomes
Bob; Charles develops into Charley,
and James into Jimmy. Although
Richard, Robert and Charles are
automatically at home in the French
language, the same cannot be said
for the English or American diminu-
tives; they are distinctly non
French, yet they are gaining in
creasing popularity in France.

CHAPTER VII

The days began to slide by like
roller coasters.
They were full days for Frank
and Barney, who, needing the adj
vice of Dean Graves and Walter
Burrage, had slipped easily into the
routine of the school. They were
methodical in devoting the allotted
hours to classes and studies, and
this regularity and concentration
set them free, without worry, for
other things.
1t was easier for Frank to get
past the dull spots in the curricu-
lunn, for he had learned the trick of
making things seem easy by facing
them without shrinking or delay.
"Quicker done sooner mended' was
a maxim his Uncle Asher had plant
ed well in his mind. 1t was one of
the old saws that wise guys laughed
at; wise guys who were not half
as wise as they thought they were.
Frank was trimming over with
the joy of life, which is the natural
heritage of healthy youth. The way
he had figured it out, sour fellow
was sick, physically or mentally.
That, perhaps, was the secret of
his odd moments of sympathy for
Hodge.
Bart was an up-and-downer, Ell
Their riding high or fioundering in
the ditch. There didn't seem to be
any level spots for him. Exciting
going, perhaps, but pretty bunny.
Rooming with Merriwell and Null
10y was just about the toughest thing
he had bumped into, too. Especially
so after Walter Burrage h a d
gummed the works which had been
so well oiled by Hugh Bascomb.
The set-up had been Bascomb's,
not Hodges; but Bart had fallen
into line full of confidence that he
could do a neat job with Frank
without having to pull anything
shady. His foul blow had not been
premeditated. 1t had been let loose
by unthinking rage, the most
treacherous of masters.
Grim and sullen, Hodge came and
went. He spoke to Frank or Bar
ney only when he had to, which was
seldom. Not for long could he nest
with those birds. He would find a
way to fly, and he'd hop to it at
the first chance.
The school gymnasium was beau
tifully equipped, and Merriwen
spent some time there daily, keep
ing himself fit. AS rule, he wound
up with a sprint on the running
track and a plunge into the swim
ming pool. One day compact,
sturdy, quiet man with quick eyes
spoke to him as he came, drip
ping, out of the pool.

Well, it had comet Barney had
told him he couldn't dodge it. So
he faced the music without hesita-

"I'll do my own worrying" said
Walter. "You do yours"
Hodge was on his feet now, but
his legs were still weak under him
and his head was giddy. Realizing
at last that it would have been
impossible for him to stand up to
Merriwell again if he had been
given the chance, he let them re-
move the gloves from his hands. He
felt utterly broken.

Again Merriwel was touched by
that strange sympathy for the fell
low which he had felt in Snodd S
grove when Bart came back after
running away from Tad Jones dog.
It was something Frank did not I'M
derstand himself. He opened his
lips to speak, though he didn't know
what he could say.
But Bascomb took Hodge by the
arm and led him away.
