LIBRARY NOTES

This week Mr.. Simmons gave to the
library two nice and useful books. The
books will be useful to the clubs and
in other extra-curricular activities in
high school. The names of the books
are "Extra-curricular Activities" by
McKown and "Our High School Clubs"
by Blackburn.
The library would like to thank the
following for holly wreaths and Christ
mas greens: Albert Adams, Charles
Hager, Lester Atkinson, Nellie Figgs,
Pauline Hales, Mildred Shockley and
Catherine Pusey.
Thirty new books were added to the
library this week.
To help people who wish to give
books and magazine subscriptions for
Christmas, members of the Library
Club have prepared lists which are
now in the library.
CLASS PLAY
There has been a change in the
cast of "Hobgoblin House.. For very
good reasons it was necessary for two
pupils to relinquish their parts in the
play. Those who will replace them
are Mary Godfrey and Luther Taylor.
In spite of the late hour at which
they were chosen, the other members
of the cast are confident that Mary
and Luther will help make the play a
success. They have already learned
their parts and are putting themselves
into their roles with ease.
The patrons and friends have real
treat in store for them when they see
this play. It will be appreciated be-
cause of its humor and mystery.

is not to say, as Mr.. Welles suggests,
that I'VE have no rightful concern" in
the lawlessness and horror now stalk
ing across the world beyond our gold
choked shores. If we mean to lift no
finger to curb them, 1t Is at least our
inalienable right, II not our sacred
duty, to scream from every American
housetop, from every mcensored news
paper page, from every unbridled mi
crophone-yes, from the floors Of
Congressional what has happened
and is happening in Austria, what has
happened and is happening in China,
and what may at any hour happen In
and to Czechoslovakia, is the "rightful
concern" Of a people who have not
scrapped the charter of liberty au-
thored by Thomas jefferson or repudi-
ated the Bill of Rights. To keep our
mouths shut at moment when mems
souls are being tried as at no time in
modern history is TO be recreant not
only to American tradition, but TO ig-
more the ordinary decencies OF man
kind. To counsel pussyfooting at this
crisis In world affairs Is to stoke the
fires which are slowly but steadily con-
suming human liberties.

foreign minister, and the other new
cabinet appointments might lend
weight to this view, as they are tradi-
tionally of the strategic school whose
dreams Of expanding empire have
turned toward Russia. As Governor
OF Korea, Gen. Ugaki indicated that
he considered it the future entrepot
to Russia, and he is minutely informed
in all military and diplomatic cons
siderations involved in such an enter-
prise.
While the cabinet shift Is being gem
orally interpreted as triumph OF the
militarists, this does not fit in with
Gen. Ugakis previous Affiliations. AS
minister of war, from 1925 to 1881, hs
fought the fire-eating Gen. Araki, whn
later led the militariStS to their com-
plete ascendancy and their drive on
the continent. He has been known
as a constitutionalist and frequently
has been allied. politically, with the
opponents Of the militarists.
He was graduated from the Military
Staff College, rising in power as Cow
ernor of Korea. serving brief term as
Premier in 1887. His record is that Of
shrewd and flexible politician who
might quite plausibly be carrying the
ball in a fast side-line buck, with q
feint at China and plunge at Russia.
