Editorial
Paragraphics
As to what Fayetteville did for
us the other day, all we have to say
is, “Quoth the Raven—
Readers of “Pigs is Pigs” note a
startling resemblance to to that great
“Principals is Principals,” which the
faculty contemplates writinj
The newest thing at G. H. S. is
a “Swat the Flapper” campaign.
“Judge” has a game foot, but we

of the orchestra. Do not be satis

game as its
owner.
A racquet is ,the most popular
thing around the school these days.
It may he large, small long or short,
it doesn’t make any differnece—
just so its a racquet.
Rumor hath it, that several of the
gentle men faculty have beat hasty
retreats before the attacks of their
feminine students. But be of good
cheer, the year is young as yet!
Mr. Jennings has about decided to
start a “Pithy Paragraph Paper,” and
use the answers of his chemistry
tests as contributions.
We don’t mind “facing the music,”
if its the kind the orchestra provides.
“Fair Days” are only school days
for us.
“D” stands for dangerous—if on
your report.
Miss Harris is putting the “glee”
in Glee Club alright.
It is with pride, somewhat mixed
with foreboding that the “High Life”
staff sends its young “brain child”
to battle with the world. Of course,
like all fond parents, we are aware
of the good features and promise of
our off-sj)ring, but unlike many, we
also realize its limitations. lb is
true that the paper mav seem a lit
tle crude at first, but when you take
into consideration the fact that we
are all new and green at our werk,
perhaps your critisism will be tinged
with sympathy.
High School Spirit.
“What does it all mean, this High
School spirit that is always being
talked about,” one freshman was
heard to ask another. Well, from
senior’s standpoint, it means many
inexpressible and intangible things.
First of all it is the whole-heared
honest loyalty to G. H. S. It menas
the giving of one’s very best to make
our school just what each of us would
have it. It is school spirit which
makes us go out to cheer and root
for our teams—both boys and girls
and makes us spend several of our
"off afternoons” working on debates
and dramatics and practicing with the
glee club and orchestra.
This same w'ill ’o the wisp leads us
to conduct ourselves, where ever we
are, so that credit is reflected upon
our school and faculty. It is also
the thing which makes us do our re;
ular school work well, and makes
us ashamed to turn in poor or shoddy
papers. This spirit at G. H. S.
going to mean more to every stud
ent than ever before, and is bein[^
felt not only by us, but by every cit
izen in our citv.
Our “spirit” is a fiery torch that
must be watched with jealous eyes
a!id tended with ready hands, to keep
its light always burning with a steady
glow that will lead us from, the
depths of the valey to the highest
peak of the mountains.

quite take the place of our class of
’22.
The list of the class will show
you where they have drifted. We
find some have gone to the four cor-'
ners, yet we we have a large number
still with us in Greensboro. Many
are at the colleges and some are
working, and so we feel that they
will be coming back to see us often.

Wednesday morning in chapel, Dr.
Turner, in his usual quiet and unas
suming manner, gave us an interest
ing talk. He read before the student
body a selection from the thirteenth
chapter of II Kings. From this he
chose the timely subject, “The Quit
ter. ’ He told many fitting stories,
bringing out how there was no place
in athletics, life, and especially a
high school, for anyone 4vho quits.
Dr. Turner told the students that
there is a larger game than football,
in which the “quitter” played a large
part, and that was the “game of life.”
In closing Dr. Turner said he
could think »f no more suitable and
appropriate motto for a football
team and a high school than “Hold
on until you find success, and don’t
be a quitter”

Phones 71 and 72
Wednesday, Oct. 4, Mr. Phillips
announced the winner in the main
building for the scholarship shield
during the month of September.
The lucky room was Miss Grogan’s
No. 202, with the lowest per cent of
failures. Miss Gressett’s room, No.
101, was a close second. i
The number of “A” pupils was
not so large this past month as last ‘
year. The • remark was made that
a pupil that made all “A’s” should
have as much praise and applause ^
as the player on the football field j
who carries the ball over and makes'
a touchdown. But do they get it? |
They do not. Shouldn’t we be just
as proud of this pupil as we are of'
a football player? By all means—;
Come on, boys and girls, let’s show
that we are, and in so doing, try to
join the lucky “A” pupils, who for
September are as follows:
Sophomores—Jack\ Causey, Gar
nett Gregory, Margaret Clegg, Leah|
Bowman, Lucile Sharp.
Juniors—Robert Wilkins, Lucile
Boone, Isabel Cone, Dora Foust, Pat
ty Webb, Katharine Schenck.
Seniors—Elizabeth Simpson.
