Philagathenas (letting Harder On the
(By Kirby S. Gupton, '27.)
For the first half of the year, the
high school boys seemed to like the
girls and to be pleased with every
thing they did. They. became so in
terested, in fact, that they thought it
their duty to advise them as to how j
to doll up. The program committee (
of the PhUagatheau Society, -after;
careful deliberation, came to the con
clusion that the boys should debate
the question as to whether the high
school girls should use cosmetics or
not. The judges decided that they'
should not. The boys said that to
leave off the paint and rouge would
make the girls look more natural; but |
this is not all When the president
asked the secretary last Friday to
read the minutes of the last meeting,
he rose with a dignified air and said
in the course of reading the reoord of
the last meeting, 'The boys of the
Philagathieian Society have decided
that the girls of Gold 'Sand should |
not use cosmetics any more." Poor
little girls. What price they must pay
for beauty.

Why 1 Think the Beys aad Girls
Should Bead the Great Stone Face
I imagine the Great Stone, Pace
-would be of great Influence to a boy
or girl. It reminds us of the time
of long ago, when we look et the pic
tare, and brings beck all the men
ories of nature. , f
When we read the story it often
changes a frown into a smile, because
of the look of tho pictnro it illustrates.
I think if all tho boys and girls
would read the story, picture it out
in their minds. Just as llttis Ernest
did. they would alt ho-bettor hoys
and girls and would understand more
about the earth in whioh we live.
My only wish is that every one ot
us eould have soon the mountain ?nd
tho picture of tho fsco, as little Em
sat did, for I am auro it would not
seem op much like aa-uutruo story or
picture.
Tho story and picture touches as
any wayg to think of the klndaooo
wo owe to our followmon. Wo shoalo
nil loom to act more kindly and
friendly to all, even the ones that we
are got fond of, for wo may soo tho
time wo will bo glad to bo with thorn
Do unto other*-an you would have
them do unto yon. would be ? groat
motto for us to think of, and learn,
as we read the story of the kindness
of little Ernest toward his mother
and the Stone Face. -

Debate
(By Viola Mitchell, '29} >
Resolved that girls should use cos
metics in htgh school..
Honorable Judges members,of the
society and most worthy opponents:
L propose (hat girls In high school
positively should not use cosmetics.
Before giving any points on this
query, I want to ask my opponents
a question ana It Is this: Will you
please tell me Just one sensible rent
son why you should use thl-> stuff?
Is your reason just to be like the rest
of Dlnty Moore's gang? If so you are
in a bad fix and. you'd better reform
while you can.
It ruins your complexion, you use
it for a month or so then when- you
stop all the little color that you used
to have is gone, gone forever.
Time is lost. That Is the reason
today In our high schools we hare
so many pupils that are not doing
I anymore than passing on their work,
and why? Just because they spend
so much time every night and morn
ing standing before the mlrrow try
ling to get the paint and powder even
on their face, when they should be
trying to put something In the coooa
nut shell of theirs, instead of trying
tp beautify the leather that covers the
front side. ?? ?-?
What does it amount to? Most wor
thy opponents, dout you know ?*
Well ..as 1 kuow Utat twoand two
makes tour that it does not make a
young gentleman love you an* bettei
with the holes in your face all daib
bed up with paste. It's not the rouge
he lores or likes. If it was he conld
go to the drug store and bay a box
to look at.?DtttsfiTfolks, its what's
under it and not the doughface.
Where it came from: Do you know
Whfire thl? ?*?" nrlfllnntnrf t Mil I'll ?
bet you don't. Well once a low down
girl that war thntight npthlnft nf H? ?
cided she would make the young man
pay some attentfon to her, so she
puts this stuff j^Lnter her faee and
goes down the street, and of course
everybody looked at her. So the high
er clas sofglrls became Jealous be
cause all th^ boys wrere^ Wdng" IBe
common girl and not them, so they
cooled the example from the lower
class of girls and here it Is today
right here in our society.
If we high school pupils use it In
high school, more than likely ^well
keep H up after we get through. Then
many a poor somebody and the poor
little children will suffer for food and
clothes Just because ma takes all pa's
money to buy powder, paint andlip
stick. Yes, you can say it helps to
hide the freckles on your face, but
what does that amount to? Every
body knows you have thdm and when
you use powder it only looks as 11
your face la dirty.
And now honorable judges, I've
proven to you that cosmetics posi
tively should not be used tn high
school. Now, worthy opponents, Will
you do me a favor? Will you please
remember this as long as you can -
remember? If so, here It Is: "Little
rubs o' lipstick, little dusts o' paint,

thank you.
WHton Boys Defeat Youngsvllle
The Youngsvllle basket ball team
met -their Waterloo last Friday night
at the hands .of cross roads consoli
dated school ovpr In Granville county,
It is just a little uncertain what the
score was but the referee claimed
only 40 to 6 in favor of Wilton. It
appears that our boys left before the
correct score wde verified. One ot-the
team was heard to say that they had
n't stopped counting wh?h he left.
Our-boys were really at a disadvant
age. The Wilton hoys were so high
and the codling of the indoor court
wa? so low that it eras difficult to
locate the basket. The ceiling being
low the baskets were so low those
tall Wilton boys would just tumbls
the ball over and the whistle would
blow-for another toss up gt
It was a fast game
Youngsvllle boya 'seemed a bit awk
ward on thrf Wilton court.
