PAGE TWO THE LEXHIPEP OCTOBER 16, 1924 “ASK CBADE” We’ve got an English teacher, Whose best name is Hunt • And boys he’s a i^reacher When your lesson is punk. He’ll bray and he’ll bray When your lesson is bad. He always seems gay, W'hile you are so sad. Now boys, let me give you Some dope on the side: Tou’ll certainly feel blue Unless you get in with “Clyde.” He is the best fellah That’s ever been made, But boys let me tell ya That man sure will grade. He’ll mark you a zero With plenty of spunk; And then you’re a hero. But—one who has flunked. Now boys, I am sending this Straight from the shoulder. If you think it’s a miss. Ask those who are older. -Don’t ask mister All-en— He might tan your hide. Take my advice then, .Just go and ask “Clyde.” FRED WILSON LEXINGTON HIGH Some may go far away. Some may come nigh, But what’s the use to worry. When we have ‘Our Lexington High.” School paper and a new chapel, Hard lessons that make you sigh. But gee, who makes up this school life but The teachers of “Lexington High.” What our school is made of. Pep, rep and the same old cry, “Come on team. Let’s make this a real Lexington High.” Mrs. Jones had recently arrived in Lexington. She had formerly liv ed here but moved away long since. Many years ago she had graduated from the Lexington High School, but had noi been in a High School since. Of course she had often heard of Lexington’s new High School, but had never visited it. therefore, one of the first things that she did after ar riving, was to have Mr. Cowles, the superintendent, to show her through the school. Mr. Cowles, being glad to do so, first showed her into the well ordered library. A vision of the library in her days was in her mind. She was delighted with our library and would have remained longer to enjoy some of the books had she not known that she must hurry through. Mrs. Jones next was shown the auditorium, although it was not com pleted, she was very enthused over the prospects of such a wonderful auditorium. With each of the seven other rooms on the first floor, she was equally de lighted. Mrs. Jones was then shown the rooms on the second floor. She was surprised when Mr. Cowles opened the doors that led to the balcony of the auditorium. She had not noticed the vast balcony from down stairs. Later she was shown the gym and laboratories in the basement. All classes in the laboratories were well ordered and a credit to their teachers. Mj’s. Jones’ enthusiasm over the High School should make all of us thankful that we are going to school to-day and that we have such an ad vantage over her. In Mrs. Jones’ day, Lexington High School was certainly not as it is now, and we are extremely lucky to have such a beautiful -and well equipped high school. Every year Lexington High School improves, and it will improve every year to come. MARGARET EBELEIN.
