OCTOBER 16, 1924 THE EEXHTREP PAGE SEVEN THE NEW AEDITORH'M At last, Lexin,§ton High School has an Auditorium of which no one would he ashamed. It is a thing of which l\Ir. Cowles, the school board, and those interested in the High School have long been dreaming. Anyone who has visited the school in the last four or five years knows how the students and faculty have been handicapped by the lack of an assembly room. In the past. Chapel, and other meetings have l^een held under the greatest difficulty. Sev eral times, various classes and orga nizations have considered putting on entertainments, but their plans were thawarted because there was no place to present them. Now, however, it is quite difterent. A large roomy Auditorium is ready for an assembly at any time. When the faculty wishes to reach the stu dents at once, it can be done easily and with little confusion. Now, those who are interested may hold their entertainments in an Auditor ium with a seating capacity of eleven hundred which has been thrown open to the community. The members of the school board, who made this Imilding ]50ssible, have done some thing which they shall never regret and which wili always be appreciat ed by the students of the High School. TO THE STl’HI^XTS OF E. H. S spirit and make our school paper the best one in North Carolina. Try to be the best reporter in your class, with the neatest articles on the best subjects, and get them in first, but remember— “If at first you don’t succeed in having your article printed. Remember, dear, there are other ways besides just up and quitting. Remember your friends, your pa per and that your school has a rep. Forget your reward, but look up your work in the next issue of THE EEXHIPEP’’ Tours For a Success, DWIGHT JOHNSON. GHANH IDE.V Some pupil’s idea of an ideal high school seems to be— A four hour day. An hour and half for dinner. Fifteen minutes between classes. One page lessons. Two units for years wor]?. Chewing gum and candy provided by city. Teachers who are expected to know everything but te.ach nothing. Cla.ss periods turned into general discussion. Holidays on birthdays. To do nothing and get credit for everything. ELIZABETH HACKNEY Dear fellow Students: Are you interested in THE EEX HIPEP? Do you want it to be one of the best high school papers in the state? How absurd: of course you do. Well I am going to tell how you can help make it so. Every- time jmu hear anything you think will he of interest to the students of Lex ington High School, tell some mem ber of the editorial staff about it. If anything of special interest happens to your class, if any distinguished vis itor come, or you get any good jokes on your friends etc., be sure to report them for publication in the LEXHI- PEJ’. Do you have enough interest in the welfare of your school paper to give a few moments of your time to securing subscriptions? It will be impossible to publish it without the co-operation of every student. The staff, both editorial and busi ness, are splendid ones, but editors are only human, and regardless of how capable they are, they can not be everywhere all the time, or do all the work. The responsibility of THE T.EXHIPEP’S welfare rests upon the shoulders of every L. H. S. student. Let us show the true blue and orange “THE TEN COMMANDMENTS FOR ENGLISH THEMES” 8 10 1. Thou Shalt write with ink only. 2. Thou Shalt use wide paper. 3. Thou Shalt observe all rules of punctuation. 4. Thou Shalt spell all words correct ly. 5. Thou Shalt not make more than five mistakes or thou shalt sure ly fail. 6. Thou Shalt have no blots on thou paper. 7. Thou shalt not rub out a word, write the page over. Thou shalt copy over a page if it contains a mistake. 9. Thou shalt write many, many themes. Thou shalt have all papers, per fect in every way.
