 Christmas Presents
 Comsr. Louis E. Bria of the board of education commented on the items relating to Christmas gifts to the board members" amounting to $88 for cigarettes and pen and pencil sets; the Christmas dinner for the board. He objected to the Republican ed- itorial, portion of which is quoted:
 We learn, too, with special in- terest, that even as in the case when the lavish mayor of this city invited the state senators to drink and feast, so also when the board of education members were dined and showered with gifts, the tax payers and rentpayers of Water bury footed the bill.
 Insinuations Resented
 T resent the insinuation of the shower of gifts which the editor ial hints the members of the board of eductaion received" Comsr. Bria said. T have served the city of Waterbury for four years as a member of the board of education with all my ambition, energy and devotion to duty and have never received anything which can be considered lavish"

Editorial

Work on the annual is completed.
The last article and picture have
been sent in. There is now nothing
left but to wait for the proofs TO be
sent back by the printer.
But we feel that something should
be done besides waiting. We feel
that those students who have labored
so earnestly all the school year
and they have worked hard-who
have gone quietly about their BUSH
ness of getting pictures, arranging
them, covering events, and putting
them all together in the annual
should congratulated on their
work. It was. hard piece of work,
and, in our opinion, it was admir-
ablely done, with minimum of
complaining and Stacking.
But not alone to the editorial staff
of the annual should we offer bou-
Quets. The students of the high
school, as a whole, have encouraged
and cheered the staff by their con-
slant support and interest. They
have shown in every way possible
that they were for our annual heart
and soul They have given moral
support, and what is more, they have
backed it up in very concrete
manner. Practically every student
who agreed to purchase an annual
has come through with his payment
in fine shape-even, they say. the
editor. So we think that for this
admirable piece of work, the high
school deserves the highest praise
possible

was becoming lower instead of high
er, as it should He believes that
the cultural studies of Latin and
Greek are necessary in order to
write and speak good English and
that they are being disregarded to-
day. Another fault of the world
today is that too many people do
not think ii important to belong 10
church.
The center of morality is, as ex-
pressed by Dean MeAllister, the diff
ference between right and wrong,
the pure and the foul, and truth and
dishonesty. In our own life we have
the power TO determine what is
right and wrong and to think fer
ourselves, but the tendency is to
follow the crowd, do what they do"
instead of deciding individually
what is right and wrong We must
think for ourselves unless we are
to be empty, superficial, and ig-
norant. We all have a conviction
from within and should apply it..
Custom never made anyone
happy"
Dean McAllister said that the
greatest sin in the world is trying
to keep up with our neighbors"
People are doing our thinking for
too many of US. We are casually
drifting along just caring whether
we get by Not enough people are
caring whether they more than get
by"
The most dangerous thing that
can happen is for us to assume we
are toe old to leaFH. We must have
responsibility from within and re-
member that the internal is more
important than the external if we
are to make the most of our abil-
tiles.

The purpose of these tests is not
only to find out how and where the
pupils of this school, individually

receive some general knowledge as

teaching methods are satisfactory or

Addresses High School

Dean McAllister talked about the
permanent satisfaetions' of life
and what our school preparation has
to do with it. Too many of us have
the false conception that Well
never know more than what we
think we do now" High school
students and even college students
are apt to have the idea that they
know more than their parents know.
Dean McAllister said that he
thought chivalry was becoming a
lost art and the loss of it was be-
ginning in the high schools of the
country; that regard for womanhood
