The Hi N’bws received a rating
of from good to excellent from the
National Scholastic Press Associa
tion. This rating, based on the
October, November, December is
sues, gives the Hi News second class
honors in the N. S. P. A. score
book. j
Four main points were considered ;
News values and sources, news writ
ing and editing, editorials and enter
taining matter, and headlining,
typogra^jhy, and make-up.
The News received the highest
rating on news values and sources
and editorials and entertaining
matter. The feature columns re
ceived special mention.
This rating is very gratifying to
some of the members of the class
but demonstrates to others the need
of more work.
This was a critical service and
not a contest, given as a courtesy
to all schools belonging to this as
sociation.
To the Lindberghs
By dedicating this issue to
the Lindberghs, the staff of the
Hi Nbw-s wishes to express
deepest sympathy for the Lind
berghs in their bereavement of
Charles, Jr.
We did not lose hope even
when news was most discourao'-
ing, and consequently the news
of the child^s death greatly
shocked us.
We have, as a class, closely
followed the news of the kid
napping of the child and have
tiled to stop all false rumors.

Many beautiful and interesting
posters, dealing with the work of
the freshman algebra classes in their
work on the unit of Time and in
connection with their morning exer
cises on Character Building, are
on display in Miss Cobb’s home
room.
^ One of these posters, made by
Eleanor Taylor, shows an arrange-
ment^ of fiowers which open at
c^ertaiii hours of the day. Noticing
the time when certain flowers open
was one of the earliest means of
determining time.
Another, “Measuring Time Thru
The Ages,” by Richard Helms,
shows the implements from the very
beginning of Time to the present
which were used in measuring time.
Still another, “Character Lessons
in the Harp of Life,” by Janet
Newell, shows a harp, each string
representing one of the thirty-two
good traits of character.
_ The students and teachers are in
vited to come in and see these
posters, as well as the booklets which
Miss Cobb’s classes have made.

^ In chapel, Thursday, May 12, Mr.
K H. Claridge, assistant forester
01 the Department of Conservation
and Development of Forests in North
Carolina spoke to the school con
cerning conservation of our forests.
Mr. Claridge spoke of the valuable
products we obtain from the forest
tiirjientiiie, mapel sugar, lumber
and tanin. ’
He emphasized the fact that the
floor of the forest, consisting of tree
branches, stumps, and pine needles,
protects the earth from being beaten
down by the rain, “And,” he added,
“although I wouldn’t say that
forests absolutely prevent floods
they help in doing so because tlie
water cannot run off' so fast.”
“Forests purify the water for
fish,” Mr. Claridge said. “The trees
also affect the climate. Water from
trees go off in air and have a coolino-
effect in the Summer.” *
He spoke of foresty as a vocation i
tor boys. He said that it was a'
pleasant job but warned the hoys
that hard work was attached to it
also.
At the conclusion of his talk Mr.
Claridge awarded Virginia Crow,
a senior, three dollars, the fourtli
prize in^ the state-wide contest con
ducted in the interest of forestry.
Ihe title of Virginia’s essay was
‘I he Relation of Forests to Our
iish and Game.” It was written on
senior English class and was a part
of the required work for the sprina:
term. ^

BACK STAGE
Whata play!
Can that be the haughty, beauti
ful Lady Mary childishly running
around pinning her hair, reddening
her cheeks, highly frustrated.
“Hey! Vou! Don’t jab that sword
so near me!” hoarsely whispers
Beaucaire, forgetting his French
accent.
Lift up, man, lift up! That’s my
toe under your foot,” bellows Cap
tain Badger.
The romantic Booty can be seen
in the corner, not-so-romantically
threatening to “knock the socks off
this dummy!” After much stru'^-
gling and })atient replacing he
starts; “Your eyes are limpid pools
of imprisoned moonlight,” etc. Some
line!
His (Jrace, the Duke of Winterset,
IS manfully struggling with his
monacle, nearly knocking his eye out
in the attempt to get it “to stick.”
Captain Badger is over in the
corner, chest thrown out, as Lady
Rellerton counts the buttons, “Loves
me, loves me not. . .
