Halloween PARTY
Spoiled By Group
Of Prunksters

Last Fridays Halloween party
was a disappointment, from the
standpoint of the time and effort
put forth by the Browning Youth
club officers. Robert LaFrom.
boise. Bill Grissom and Tiff Nc.
Kay. as well as local volunteers
who devoted time and spent
money to provide wholesome en-.
tertainment for our community's
young people.
IT the party was any indication,
II would seem tina, some of our
local young people have no, vet
learned the meaning of the word
It hanks" and Appreciation,
judging from the conduct of a
few. who early in the evening
ruined the entertainment for
many that night.
Apples and popcorn balls were
carelessly tossed around and
apple cider spilled on the floor
Of the community hall where the
party was held. by a few who
chose to be destructive rather
than sppreciativc.
Such disorderly conduct on the
part Of those few resulted in clos.
ing down the entertainment ear.
lier than had been planned.
1t Is . shame that those of our
children who have good public
and party manners" must be sub.
jected to the criticism Of the
many. and prevented from the
enjoyment Of wholesome enter.
tainment because Of q few who
lack appreciation.
Those OF our children who do
know how to conduct themselves
In public can only hope that the
few who ruined last weeks Hal.
Ioween party may one day learn
. lesson In good manners thru
association with them.
Truly. because Of the lack Of
thanks and appreciation displayed
by . few last Halloween night,
those few" are more to be pitied
than criticized.

newly organized band are
available. Both are directed by
DR.. George Wargo, violist with
the National Symphony Or

Our school paper, Talk of

news sheet. Although it is not
a printed paper, it covers our
news and is widely read
throughout the school. Next
year our printed paper, 1.-THE

yearbook, The Takoman," is
also a special school feature.
1t contains a SNAPSHOT of
every student and photographs
taken by the students during
the year.
Once a week the Student
Council meets and discusses
the problems that arise around
the school. Equipment needs,
how to deal with unruly stu
dents and student government
are examples of the topics dis
cuSSed at these meetings. An
election for next years Stu
dent Council president is soon
to be held. following proce-
dures similar to local political
campaigns.

This is required in the place

education. The corps includes
all freshmen and sophomores.
Corps officers are juniors
and seniors. 1t is divided into
five platoons, forming a COM
pany. Every day the platoons
meet as classes in which they
cover many fields-from first
aid to military procedure.
Because Seventh-day Adven-
fist beliefs forbid the taking
of human life, our men who
enter the military services
must do so as conscientious
directors. The medical cadet
course is designed to prepare
us for military duties in such
a way that we may maintain
our religious beliefs.

Takoma Academy was estab-
lished as a four-year high
school on the campus of Wash
ington Missionary College Is
years ago.
Our present building. To-
Gated at 1920 Carroll avenue,
Takoma Park, was completed
In 1852. Takoma Academy is
comparatively small for a met
ropolitan high school, having
an enrolment of 325. This in
clddes a small roster of junior
high students.
Takoma is a private school
sponsored by the Potomac Con-
ference of Seventh-day Adj
ventists and is accredited with
the Middle States Association.
Our faculty includes 10 teach
ers and our principal. John P.
Laurence.
Our present building con-
sists of nine claSsrooms. busi-
ness offices, library, bookstore,
gymnasium. kitchen and in
dustrial arts room. In addi-
ton, we have the use of the

a new addition is being planned
which will include a chapel,

lab, a cafeteria and more

The bivouac is a weekend

many varied entertainments

student body also meets once

which time a short religious
