THE OPEN FORUM
TELEPHONE AND MARRIAGE
Paul Po-Chi Fung, a young Chinese
publisher, who is enrolled in the Co
lumbia school of journalism, said that
there are two institutions in this
country which perplex him. One is
the telephone and the other is mar
riage. “They are new to me. because
they are alike,” he said. “You have
to give a ring before you can tele
phone or marry, but you don’t always
get the right party in either case and
you can get disconnected from either
without dilHculty.”
The Lexington High School boy
walked up to the magazine counter
and said to the girl there. “Have
you ‘Life’?”
“Judge for yourself,” she replied,
giving him a "Punch.”
Dear Editor:—
The last number of the LEXHIPEP
is the best yet. Every number has
Improved since the first. This reader
finds enjoyment and real school pr.de
to see such an attractive magazine
coming from the students of our
school. The Robbins School page was
splendid and we hope they will make
it so bright the High school students
will have to bestir themselves to keep
up their good reputation as writers.
As one writer has suggested the
make up of the paper might be more
attractive in the arrangement of var
ious departments and advertisements
It is a real pleasure to some of us
parents and teachers to know we will
have more literary work among the
students. Debating and Literary So
cieties ought not to be neglected. The
brain, speech and memory should be
trained to activity as well as the phy
sical body. Athletics are necessary,
to a certain extent, but so is mental
training.
Every parent or patron of our city
schoois certainly must be proud and
pleased at the splendid work our fa
culty and student body are doing this
year. Our schools are now beginning
to accomplish what some of us have
longed for during the past years of
struggle for building and equipment.
