If everyone does as he pleases the
Schoolroom is soon degenerated
into an animal cage.
Everyone knows that no army
can be successful unless there is
strict adherence to the rules. Sol
diers do not keep step merely to
please the commander; they keep
step because, if they didn't, they
would be falling over each other.
You cannot have a successful
business without obedience to
rules.
You cannot enjoy game of golf,
or even of checkers or of marbles,
unless you keep the rules.
You could not ride along the
street in your automobile unless
you and others obeyed the rules
of the road.
every motorist did as he
pleased he would be in the ditch
or up against a lamp post before
he had gone two blocks. You can
not even go to an anarchist meet
ing and pass a resolution denounc-
ing the government if everybody
talks at once and nobody pays at
tention to his neighbor.
And morality itself is practically
nothing more than keeping the
rules of he game. The most deep
ly immoral person is the one who
does as he pleases. He is not only
immoral but he is extremely likely
to be taken to the hospital.
Keeping the rules of the game
is the only way in which the weak
can be protected. Where there is
no law nor respect for law there
is the absolute tyranny of the
strongest.
The purpose of rules in a game
is to enable the players to have
fun. Fools imagine that the pur-
pose of rules is to keep people
from having fun.
Enjoyment is the legitimate son
of order.
You cannot even get enjoyment
out of making love unless you keep
the rules of the game For the
great problem in love is not to
fall in love,-you can do that cas-
lily as you can fall over a cliff; the
problem is to stay in love, to have
love minister to life. And the only
people who stay in love are those
who keep the rules of the game.

The Rules OF The
Game
RAMBLING THOUGHTS
BY A Philosopher

There is no game that can pos
sibly be played without keeping
the dulles. You cannot even play
solitaire, and get any fun out of
it, if you cheat yourself.
But most games are played with
others and, if you do not keep the
rules, the game suddenly comes to
an end.
Every sort of human activity de-
pends for it's pleasure and useful
ness, upon laws of one sort or an
other.
You cannot get any good out of
arithmetic if you insist that two
and two equals five Two and two
must always equal four, even if
the result is disaster.
Boys and girls can get no advan-
tage from schooling unless they
keep the rules of the schoolroom.

Carver High Opens

Continued from Page 1.)
Americas best known Muralists
will become a fall professor of Art
at New York University. From
Morehouse Mr.. Grigsby spent a
year at the American Artists
School in New York and then took
his Masters degree in Art Educa-
ton at Ohio State University. In
France he studied at L'Ecale des
BeauX Arts de Marseilles. At all
of these schools Mr. Grigsby has
combined an interest in art with
an interest in the theatre. In COM
ing to Carver he will open up an
entirely new field of interest to the
Carver pupils.
The board this year has also en-
ployed clerk for the high school
office who will make it possible
for Mr.. Robinson to do some of the
many things that a principal
should be able to do in a good high
school but which he was not able
to do last year because he was tied
constantly to small jobs in the
school office. Miss Nance, the high
school clerk, has served both as a
high school teacher and high
school clerk and comes with excel
lent recommendations from her
former position. Her pleasant
cheerful personality will be appre-
ciated by the pupils and parents
who must visit the office.
A large group of parents toured
the building on Saturday and later
served sandwiches and punch to
Superintendent Montgomery and
the teachers, pupils and parents at
tending the meeting. Mrs. Alvin
Chevalier, President of the P.-T.A.
was spokesman for the group in
expressing the appreciation Of the
parents for the Improvements in
the program and the buildings.
The tie ching staff has almost
doubled in the past two years.

Tenn. In Second
Straight Derby
Bowl Victory
BY ED "Buck" CLAYTON

LOUISVILLE, KY. - (NNPAl-
Scoring once in each quarter the
Tennessee State Tigers chalked
ND their second straight Derby
Bowl triumph here last Saturday
as they turned back the West
Virginia State Yellow Jackets,
2S-6 before an estimated crowd
of $500. The game marked the
second renewal of the annual Der
by BOWL.
Although rated a 2-to-1 under
dog because of the absence OF
several star plapers, and also
outweighed by the West Virgin
ians. the Tennesseans turned on q
burst TO power, mixed with an
aerial bombardment, which spell
ed defeat for the YellOwJackets
shortly after the opening KICKOFF.
However, it was the trusty
arm of Quarterback Nathaniel
Taylor which paved the way for
the Tennessee victory as he
heaved over goal to End William
Washington for the first tally late
in the opening suarter. Again
in the second period he passed to
Halfback Charles Williams for a
score and connected again in the
third quarter to End William
Smith.
Another pass in the last quar-
ter this time from Substitute
Halfback George Brown to Wash
ington. gave the Tigers their final
marker. Charles Hamilton, guard
made good three out of his four
attempted conversions to aid IN
the Tennessee victory.
It was not until the final quar-
ter that West Virginia came to
life in the ball game, launching
drive that carried them from their
own II to the 4S. Several plays
later, after pumping to the Ten
nessee %, they registered their
lone tally of the game when Ev-
ell Rice, center, from Wheeling,
West Virginia, intercepted a Ten
nessee pass on the % and scamp
cred untouched over the goal.
Tennessee made ten first downs
to one for the losers which came
in the final quarter. Tennessee
gained 176 yards rushing to AZ
for the visitors, and completed
seven out of Is passes, while
West Virginia completed five out
of fourteen. Tennessee made two
interruptions, the losers two.
