The teachers are out for our

They must have had a hot time

What is so rare /as the day in

themselves away to the green
wood to be recreated?

The Seniors are quite ‘‘tke

they’ll be quite the green.
Well, so long, see you at col

EDITORIAL
In the last issue of "High Life,’*
ye editor cannot let the opportunity
pass without thanking the school
and espc ia’lv the Senior class for
the whole-hecirted and loyal support
which they have given. Never has
a call for material been made that
it has not been answered in some
way.
The editor also feels that the
staff should be lauded for its har
monious co-operation. It has not
allowed personal opinions or de
sires to stand in its way, and it has
always made it possible for the
editor to work—unmolested.
Although High Life has still
many roads to travel to become
a model paper, it has been our en
deavor to carry on the good work
of our predecessors and advance and
broaden its usefulness as much as
has been in our power. An effort
has been made to estimate correctly
what a majority of the students
wanted and make High Life a re
flection of the life and ideals of the
student body. It has been the pur
pose of tlie editors to make High
Life have some meaning to each
student in school and give every
phase of student activities and each
department in school, an equal
amount of publicity.
Whether we have succeeded or
failed—and we are fully aware of
our limitations—we part with a
clear conscience of having given
our best meager as it has been.
* * *
The most dubious of the doubting
ing Thomases cannot but admit that
the present student council has been
a decided success. Though it has
been in operation only for a few
months, still it has had a founda
tion that is so sturdy and practical
that its ability is not to be denied.
Three cases of dishonesty have
been dealt with, as has a case of
discipline. These problems have
been disposed of in a thoroughly
svstematic and just manner. The
members of the council did not
leave a stone unturned to get the
whole truth in each case and then,
justice was administered according
to the most conscientious judgment.
The council has approached every
question brought before it with an
open mind and has so far not
allowed prejudices to play any part
in its decisions.
This beginning made for student
participation in school government
is one for G. H. S. to be proud of.
Chapel Program
Mr. Phillips spoke about regis
tering, which is a new thing in
high school and he hopes it will
':c a success. \ye are to register
.'..onday and Tuesday. Pie also
toid us to be careful about filling
out the cards—especially about
the credits. Then he read the
proposed schedules for the coming
year. There is a plan to combine
second and third year history.
It has been decided to start a
course in German next vear.
There will be a Junior High
School at Lindsay St. School for
the I'reshmen; therefore G. H. S.
will be the same except the Sen
iors.
Miss Stephenson outlined and
explained the Domestic Science
course. Then she gave us rea
sons for taking the course.

what a fish net is?

W. N.; A lot of holes tied to
gether with strings.

OLD NEWS
Miss Mine’s first period Caesar
class has attempted to write a
newspaper notice of the forty-sixth
chapter in the “War with Ariovistus”
as it would probably appear today.
As former Latin students will re
member, Caesar and the tenth legion
were at a conference with Ariovistus
when they were attacked by his at
tendants. !
* * * I
CONFERENCE BROKEN UP!,
Attendants of Ariovistus Throw:
Rocks and Weapons on Our |
Troops—Caesar’s Pres
ence of Mind Saves ,
The Day !
The Germans have shown their
treachery again! Caesar and the
tenth legion were attacked by the
attendants of Ariovistus while at a
conference with him today. Rocks
and weapons were thrown on our
troops, greatly endangering their
lives. Caesars’ presence of mind
saved the day. Not wishing to give
Ariovistus a chance to say he started
the battle, he ordered the tenth le
gion not to hurl back any of the
weapons but return to camp. This
unbearable treachery of Ariovistus
will mean war.

YOUR SCHOOL
If you want to be in the kind
of school.
Like the kind of school you like,
\ou needn't slip your clothes in
a grip
And go on a long, long hike;
You will only find what you left
behind,
For there’s nothing really
new—
It’s a knock at yourself when you
knock your school,
It isn’t your school—its YOU!
