buy Stamps and Bonds. Then we
may be sure that we are doing
our part to supply tanks, ships,
and airplanes to our fighting men
in North Africa. Southwest Pa
cific, China, India, Iceland, and
Alaska.
What we do in the purchase of
Stamps and Bonds directly af-
fects what our men do on the far
flung battle fronts. Shall we
agree to follow the children's
example, to do little more, to
save, and to sacrifice so as to buy
Bonds which will keep the skies
full of planes and the seas full of
ships?
This Is our chance to support
our men in their fight to halt the
brutal aggressors and to restore
to human beings q world of de-
cency and order.

Our boys are constantly being
called to the army, navy and ma
rines, called awoy to serve their
country, to risk their lives that
we at home will be safe and that
we will continue to enjoy freedom
of speech, freedom of the press and
freedom of religion.
We, here at home, have our
jobs to do. So, let us all do our
part. Students, we should buy more
war stamps and save every bit of
tin, iron and rubber we can. Don't
forget to prepare your tin cans
and place them where they will
be collected on Saturday. Be sure

STUDENT COUNCIL MEET

The student council met Monday
January II, in the Cafeteria. The
council is still confronted with the
problem of disorderly conduct in
assembly. A plan has been drawn
up to prevent so much disturbance
In the auditorium during the cha
pei exercises. We are hoping the
students will cooperate with the
student council in carrying out
this plan.
We are not very pleased at the
students conduct in the corridors
and class rooms during the third
period. AS high school students
we should be intelligent, so let's
try to act that way even though
we are the opposite.
