 We Know It's Not True
 "We Americans know that this is not true" he de- clared "We do retreat We not content to stand still As Americans go forward in the service of our country, by the will of God"
 Then, turning to the nations need for maining the sacred fire of liberty he said "The preservation of the spirit faith of the nation does and will furnish highest justification for every sacrifice that we may make in the cause of national defense.'

The Heurt Heuler

Dear Aunt Sue,
Why don't the boys ever
dance with the girls at the
school dances?
A school girl.
Dear Chum,
Most of the boys in school
aren't fully grown yet, and they
are afraid that if they dance
with a girl, she might fall down,
then he'd have to pick her up.
Aunt Sue.
Dear Aunt Sue,
Why does Dolores have to
keep changing her seat in biol
ogy class?
Dear Pal,
Ask her if she always has
someone to talk to-, or if she
just talks to herself all of the
time.
Aunt Sue.
Dear Aunt Sue,
Why were there so many alb
sences throughout the school as
a whole, last Friday afternoon?
J. N.
Dear J. N.
Do you suppost that free
show at the Harriet theatre had
anything to do with it?
Aunt Sue.
Dear Aunt Sue,
Where did Bill get the good
luck necklace he's been wearing
these days?
Marion.
Dear Marion,
From what I hear, it must
have come from, or else it be-
longs to D. s.
Aunt Sue.

No one in journalism ever has
to make up spelling lessons.
Maybe it's because We never
miss one.
The attendance record at
Hardin high has been so high
that no drastic measures are
needed. A light rule has been
passed down and met with the
approval of all the students.
Why does Miss Westwood al
ways get her honor roll in on

EDITORIALS
REPORT CARDS

To nearly all of us, it seems,
report cards are small slips OF
paper which are handed out at
the close of each six weeks
period. On these slips are small
letters which we gaze upon. The
letters cause us to shudder. We
take the cards home to our par
ents. They, likewise, shudder.
Why is it that they are, al
together too often, such a dis
appointment to both the par
ents and to the students them
selves? Frequently the comment,
Eyes, he Cor she) is smart en-
ough, but just won't work." is
heard. Is this what is the mat
ter with some of us? Do we loaf
along, hoping to pass if the
teacher happens to be in a good
mood?
If we are at fault in this re-
spect, why don't we make a res
olution to do our super-best for
the next six weeks? If we work
hard, better grades are guaran-
teed, or your money back!

new RULING
IS INSTITUTED
Three Unexcused
Absences Allowed

A new regulation which went
into effect Monday, January 27,
which directly affects every
student, and whose success de-
pends upon the student cooper
alton, has been instituted in H.
H. S. 1t allows to every stu
dent three uneXcuSed absences
and three unXcused tardleS a
semester. If a student has more
than three of ether, he must be
reinstated by his parents. The
only accepted excuse for alb
sence is personal illness, or i'll
ness in the immediate family.
AS Hardin high school is ra-
ted on its attendance, which is
extremely poor, it has become
necessary to take such steps.
For each student attending
school 40 days a semester, the
school receives $120 from the
state. 1t also receives half of
the cost of transportation,
which is from 80 to SIS cents a
day per pupil.
Every time a student is alb
sent, therefore, the school loses
from IS to 271a cents with no
corresponding reduction in their
expense.
it is, therefore, to the vital
interest of every member of the
student body to support this
plan and for the parents to CO.
operate to the fullest extent.

LEISURE TIME

How do you spend your leis-
ure time? Do you spend it wise
ly, or do you waste it?
It is essential that we acquire
habits that will cause us to
spend our leisure hours profit
ably. If we spend them unwise-
ly, we lessen our chances for
success; if we spend them in
study and self-improvement, we
enhance our opportunities for
success.
Many factors enter into the
causes of success for failure, but
one of the most important is
the wise use of leisure time.
Days seem UNNECESSARILY long
and monotonous to those who
do not know the value of time
or how to use it properly.
Time is life itself. BY killing
it, you are committing mental
suicide.

Teachers, Beware

1t was decided that it would
be another one of those things"
to ask the students what quality
they liked best about their
teachers.
The largest percent of the
girls want their teacher to be
fair. Next came humor, cour-
tesy, dress, personality, and
lastly, consideration for stu
dents.
The largest per cent of the
boys want their teachers to be
humorous. Courtesy and fair
ness tied, and dress was the
least of their worries.

EVERYDAY HAPPENINGS

Every DAY atCer Cne attend
ance has been taken we see Err
ME Bochy trying to creep into
tn advisory room, tardy, as
usual, without an excuse.
In social science Jean Kuehn
appears to be making up her
mind that she is going to be a
surveyor when she gets older.
She is going to make the coun-
ties of the state of Montana
square so she can draw them
easier. Not a bad ideal.
In general math we see Will
ma Mehling, Rose Rider and
Waunetta Eckroy comparing
their English papers.
As you step into economics
room at the beginning of the
period, Charles Elder can be
seen trying to talk Mr.. Faris
out of a quiz that Charles
thinks he is going to give. AS
MIR. Faris starts his lecture,
many students can be seen go
ing to Mr.. Faris' desk after ink,
or perhaps to the pencil sharp
ener to sharpen their pencils -
perhaps they think it will take
up more time!
AS the bell rings at noon, all
can be seen making their way
homeward or to the lunch room
to be refreshed for the after
noon.
Then comes tipping. About the
time the bell rings Lucille Light
and Kathryn Metzker make a
rush from the hall, for they are
about to be late. From then on
a clattery-bang of typewriters
can be heard for the next hour.
The next period, which seems
to be Miss Kurtz'S study hall
is in a row. Marvin Turner is
seen speaking to Lawrence Koe-
bbe, but it seems that the whole
corner of the room is being en-
tertained by their conversation.
Kenneth Taylor is observed try
ing to find a fountain pen. Ruth
PitSch and Bert Salveson have
their friendly chat, while some
journalism students can be seen
trying to think what they are
to write in that editorial or
feature story that is due today.
The students in the last study
hall are envying the journal
ism students as they do not
have to be seated all the time.
Don't envy too much-it may
not be as much fun as it APP
pears to bell.
AS space doesn't permit, oc-
curranceS of all the classes can
not be presented. Well, maybe
it is so much the better. Who
would know?

In the preliminary game,
Coach Faris' B squad walked ov-
er the Lodge Grass B squad by
a 29-15 margin.
