EXCHANGES
“THE BEACON,” Newport News,. Vir
On October 1,” the students of New
port News High School, as well as
citizens of the city, were anticipating
a visit of the U. S. Frigate “Constitu
tion.” “Old Ironsides,” as it is
miliarly known, was launched in 1797
and has probably been preserved so
well due to the thought-provoking
poem written by Oliver Wendell
Holmes, entitled “Old Ironsides.” This
is certainly an enviable experience for
the Newport Newsites.
“THE CHATTERBOX,” Danville, Vir
The History club of George Wash
ington high is soon to present the
school with a large American fiag. The
flag will be raised and lowered before
and after school daily, and the flag
pole, which will be made by the stu
dents themselves, will be erected on
front campus. Greensboro High sa
lutes you, “Old Glory.”
“MANUAL ARTS WEEKLY,” Los An
geles, California.
The slogan of this paper is “It can
be done.” Why not select that for
your slogan for the coming year, stu
dents of G. H. 8.? It may well be ap
plied to studies, sports, social activities,
or, in fact, any phase of life. Don’t
forget, “It can be done.”

IDEALS OF SIR LIPTON
THEME OF DEVOTIONAL
Man Known As World’s Best Sportsman
Ends Career As a Glo>
rious Loser.
C. W. Phillips conducted a devotional
■rvice in chapel Monday, October 12.
Mr. Phillips eoutinued the monthly
theme. Sportsmanship, by reading two
editorials on the life of Sir Thomas
Lipton, vieceased.
“Sir Lipton,” quoted the principal,
‘was considered the world's best loser,
or perhaps you might say winner, he
vas sucli a glorious sport. He died as
he was sleeping and probably dreaming
of the time when liis ‘Shamrock’
should win a victory. Sir Thomas
the last of his family and perhaps, it
was better so, for how could there hav
been a more glorious ending. Sir
Thomas Lipton’s life was one glorious
victory and should inspire great lives,’
•said Mr. Phillips. ,
BOYHOOD AND LIFE ON THE
FRONTIER
This is the first of a series of eight
articles to be published by High Life
the life and character of George
Washington. Since 1932 marks the two
hundredth anniversary of Washington’s
birth and a great celebration is being
planned by the George Washington Bi
centennial Commission, the staff of High
Life wishes to co-operate with the com
mission in giving the celebration its
full educational and inspirational value.
Many stories have been told about
Washington during his entire life, and
especially his boyhood, many of which
have no foundation. The best know
of these is, of course, the incident of
the cherry tree, and though young
George was known to be a truthful boy,
still there is no evidence of this
having taken place. On the death of
his father he went sent to live with
his brother and to attend school,
which he received a fairly good educa
tion considering the time and place.
Washington was from early childhood
a leader among his friends. He
very athletic and, no doubt, had he
lived in 1932 instead of 1732, would
have made an excellent football player.
was a good boy without being
“goody-goody” boy and at 14 began
studying surveying, since his father’
death had left the family well provided
with land but with little money. He
became a surveyor at the age of 16 at
time when his profession required
more a knowledge of woodcraft than
expert mathematics. His first task,
given to him by Lord Fairfax, with
whom his brother was connected by
marriage, was to survey the vast Fair
fax estate and determine its bounda-
So well did he do his work that
Lord Fairfax had him appointed public
surveyor. Four years later his eldest
half-brother, Lawrence, died, leaving
George guardian of a daughter and heir
to the family estates if she died—as
did within ten years.
While his home life was changing
greatly . his part in public affairs
becoming more pronounced. With

money he had saved from his fees for
surveying he bought parcels of land
even before he was of age and his
brother, Lawrence, who long before had
him appointed an adjutant-general, with
the rank of major in the Virginia
litia. Thus he early won a good repu
tation and remarkable honors. In Oc
tober, 1753, aecompaned by Christopher
Gist, known as the boldest frontiers
man in Virginia, he was sent by Gov
ernor Dinwiddie on an extremely dan
gerous mission—that of warning tho
French not to trespass on English ter
ritory. The hardships of this journey
are well known as is its final result—
the French and Indian war. Shortly
after his return to Williamsburg, then
capital of Virginia, he was made lieu
tenant-colonel of the single regiment
which constituted Virginia’s military
force and spent the next summer en
gaging in frontier skirmishing with tho
French, during which his ill-supported
little band was compelled to surrender
Fort Necessity in western Pennsylvania.
Returning to Virginia, he was unfair
ly reduced in rank and resenting this
senseless policy and irritated by the
bickwerings in the militia, he indig
nantly resigned his commission and de
termined to stay out of military life for
a while.
He soon re-entered, however, as aide-
de-camp to General Braddock, with the
rank of colonel. Not realizing the dif
ficulties of forest warfare, he did not
heed some of the wise counsel given
him by Americans, but pushed toward
Fort Duquesne with 2,000 regulars from
England and some provincial recruits.
Eight miles from the fort he was at-
rified troops not permitted to break
tacked by an unseen enemy and the ter-
ranks until fear made them seek safety.
Braddock, mortally wounded, Washing
ton was left in command and conducted
the retreat of the shattered forces into
Virginia. He was now made comman
der-in-chief of the Virginia troops.
These he proceeded to reorganize; made
a journey on horseback to Boston to
settle questions of military rank; led
the advance forees that finally occupied
Fort Duquesne in 1758 and re-named it
Fort Pitt (now Pittsburgh); and re
signed when the war was practically
returning to Mount Verhon.

KATHRYN TATE
(April 19, 1915 ?)
The birthplaces of many of the great
est people the world has known have
been disputed, but Jacksonville. Flor
ida, holds an uneontested claim on mine.
Since my third year, however, Oklaho
ma City’s population has been increased
by the presence of my family within
its boundaries. I began my muscal ca
reer 11 the sixth grade by taking the
lead in an operetta. Otherwise, my
grammar school record is unblemished.
The school system of Oklahoma City
differs from the one here in that they
have three years of junior high instead
of two, as Greensboro docs.
During the time I spent in Harding
junior high school I accompanied the
boys’ glee club and orchestra. I was
also president of the Student Council.
Another difference in the schools is
the fact that at the Classen high school
they have social fraternities, sororities
and pep clubs. The object of the pep
' ilubs was to itimulate more interest
and pep at tho games. Each club was
assgned to a sperial section in the
stadium. I was a member of the B.
K. K. sorority and president of the
Comes pep club.
Since I have given some contrasts of
the two schools, perhaps it would be in
teresting to compare them. Classen has
the National Honor Society; the equiv
alent of the Torchlight Society. Classen
Life, the newspaper, has four pages, just
as High Life, but is published weekly
instead of bi-monthly.
Having lived in a large city for so
Jong, at first I could not get used to it;
but since I have made many 'friends,
' Grensboro seems more like a real home.
