PRINCIPAL'S CORNER

HAIL!

-

Hail, to the first edition of our new school paper. This paperis entirely different from any which you have received in the past.Formerly the paper was mimeographed, a popular method in usein the schools of this county. We are striving to improve thismethod by printing it. We have the honor of being the only schoolin Summit county which has a . paper printed by a commercialprinter.

The name of our paper has been changed from "The News-flash" to "The Pioneer." This name was chosen by the staff be-cause it seems so well suited to our new venture. Just as ourpioneer forefathers explored new regions, willing to endure thehardships and dangers ahead of -them in order to attain the suc-cess . they desired, so is the staff ready and willing to risk hard-ships.

It will not be clear sailing, there will be many problems anddifficulties which will have to be ironed out before we can makeour paper a success, but with everyone's co-operation it can bedone.'

The aim of The Pioneer is to acquaint the people outside ofschool with the student body and school activities, and to betteracquaint the students with each other.

The first undertaking is over, our subscription campaign wasa great success, and we wish to extend our thanks to all whohelped to make it so.

Now the actual work is going to begin. We, the staff of theGreensburg Pioneer, ask your co-operation and full support. Ifthis is obtained we promise you a successful school paper.

Caroline Toso, Ruth Harris.

WHAT IS SCHOOL SPIRIT?School spirit is hard to define. Perhaps it can be best de-

scribed by saying that it is something that escapes definition, yetis something so real and active in the life of a school that even avisitor will soon observe the presence of it among its students.Proper school spirit demands that you put the welfare of yourschool before the welfare of your class or any school organiza-tion to which you belong.

Good school spirit means co-operation and respect for author-ity.

If you have the right school ;spirit your conduct will show it.You will abide by rules and regulations and do all in your powerto keep the appearance of your school neat and attractive.

A lack of school spirit shows up just as plainly. Whereschool spirit is poor, students are frequently poor sports. Rude-ness and discourtesy are common. Pride seems to be taken inbreaking the rules of the school.

In the past few years we have been letting our school spiritdie a slow death, and it has largely been Mr. Kuder's interestingtalks and helpful suggestions which have sent us all out searchingfor the lost ghost of our school spirit. This was shown in thesubscription campaign of two weeks ago. Never in the history

HE WILL BE SUCCESSFULTeacher: "Is there anything you can

do better than anyone else?"Louis Jenkins: -"Yes, sir, read my

own writing."

Mr. Kuder: "Do you know Lincoln'sGettysburg address?"

Clarence Beak: "No, I didn't evenknow he lived there."

NUMBER ONEWife (on a boat excursion) : "If the.

boat foundered, whom would you savefirst, the children or me?"

Husband: "Me."

FRIENDS:True friends are just like pots of glue,You'll find they'll always stick to you.

(Each month this space will be de-voted to a discussion of questions per-tinent to school work by our principal,Mr. Kuder.—The Editor)

JUST TO SAY "HELLO"Having been in Greensburg but five

weeks it has not been possible for meto meet very many of the parents ofour pupils, that is, to be able to callyou by name. Nevertheless it has beena very profitable experience because Ihave come to feel that I do know youthrough your interests and ideals, yourcommunity spirit and your friendli-ness. I hope that we may be able, asa faculty, to make the school properlysupplement the other activities of thecommunity as a center for recreationand comradeship, for serious endeavorin scholarship, for proper training inresponsibility, all of which are essentialto good citizenship.

This week we are observing Amer-ican Education week in several dif-ferent ways. I am particularly inter-ested in making all parents feel free,in fact to urge them, to visit our schoolssometime during the week to see justwhat we are doing. The closer theschool and the home co-operate, thebetter for the pupil concerned. Weshall look for you next week sometimbat school.

MR. KUDER..

of this high school has there been so much interest shown in anycampaign as in this one.

But it must be remembered that school spirit cannot be re-vived by a few people. Everyone of us must do his share andgive his best co-operation before we can obtain proper schoolspirit, the kind that makes itself knwn all over the county.

MOGADORE WINSIN LAST QUARTER

On Oct. 20, the Greensburg boys re-ceived a surprise when they went toMogadore.

The teams were pretty evenly match-ed. Mogadore scored first on a lineplunge. The Bulldogs came back inthe second period -and scored on a passfrom Monostra to Beal. Burns madegood the extra point. The half thusended in a tie, 7-7.

The second half was hard foughtand exciting. The third period wasscoreless. Late in the final period,Robenstine, of Mogadore, got away fora long run to put them in a good po-sition to score. They did just that,making it 14-7. After a flurry ofGreensburg passes it ended with thatscore.Mogadore 7 0 0

SUMMARY OF EARLIER GAMESThe Bulldogs won the first game

was the one played with Bath, here,Oct. 6. Bath always has a good teamand this year was no exception. Bothteams had chances to score, Bath oncegetting to the two-yard line. Greens-burg fumbled too often to put over ascore. Being the second game of theseason and with a month less of prac-tice than Bath, it could well be calleda moray victory for the Orange and

Black.The 'first game of the season for

our team was at Norton. The teamhad but four days of practice as againsttheir four weeks, but managed to holdthem, a strong team, to a 13-0 scare.Only an intercepted pass in the lastquarter made the score that large.Norton 7 0 0 6—13Greensburg 0 0 0 0— 0

A STUDENT COUNCIL,A. few weeks ago Mr. Kuder, our principal, gave a short talk

in history class on the subject of a " Student Council. " He askedseveral questions about the student council which used to be or-ganized in this school several years ago. It seems that this for-mer organization degenerated until it ceased to exist and becamea thing of the past. The question is, why did it degenerate ! Vii asit in the fault of the student body, or was it the fault of the mem-bers of the council itself? At any rate, there is no present stu-dent council and the only way to get a permanent one is to tryagain. Then after you have it, create enough interest in it tomake it a lasting and honorable body.

The council is not a law-making, judicial or executive body.It does not have power or authority to endeavor to punish anyonefor misbehavior. Nor does it take away the faculty's authority.

It is an organized central body which can be compared to thesilent partner in a corporation. The council has . charge of ap-pointing committees for taking care of the assembly programs,the honor roll and other school activities.

Our school needs a student council, so let's take advantage ofour new school spirit and create one.

"Where is the cashier?""Gone to the races.""Gone to the races on business

hours?""Yes, sir, it is his last chance of

making the books balance."

PRINCIPAL'S CORNER

HOME STUDYThe State Department of Education

in its standards for high schoolsdeclares that pupils in high schoolshould be expected to spend at leastan hour every day in the preparationof every subject. Each high schoolpupil ordinarily has four classes everyday. Thus he has four remainingperiods in Which his time is his own,or two hours and forty minutes! avail-able of school time for study. Eitherthe other one hour and twenty min-utes required to meet the four hourstandard must be spent in homestudy or never got in at all. In toomany cases, it is never got in atall. The 160 minutes is more oftendivided to fit into the four periodsleft for study, or forty minutes' ofstudy for each subject instead of therequired sixty.

On this page is printed the honorand merit rolls for the first sixweeks of school. For a school of oursize they should both be much larger.This is a good indication that morehome study could well be used. Afterall, real study depends- upon properstudy habits. Parents can help pupilsto establish proper study habits byproviding a study table in a roomaway from the conversation of thefamily, away from newspapers, mag-azines and the radio. Then, if aschedule of time is adhered to reg-ularly it should soon show results.

It is interesting to note that oninformation blanks filled out by allhigh school pupils last week it wasfound that these pupils who haveradios in their homes spend slightlymore than two hours each. on theaverage in listening to the radio everyday. Most of that time no doubt,is spent in the evening, during thetime which should be put in study.In fact, the amount of time a pupilspends listening each day to the ra-dio may often be a good index tothe kind of work he does in hisclasses at school.

It is a good habit to take a !bookhome every night.

VISITORS' DAYOnce a month the school invites

the parents to visit the school. Thedate for December is Friday, the 15th.To know just what the school is do-ing for your boy and girl, to knowbetter their teachers, to understandthe courses offered, the aims andmethods of teaching; are a few of thebenefits you can receive from sucha visit.

We were pleased with the responseof parents to American Educationweek, but most of the 70 visitors werein the elementary building. Let meinvite now all parents of high schoolpupils as well, to spend the day withus next Visitors' day. Let us makethis a monthly event of importance.Look for the date as it is announcedin each issue of the school paper.

CONDUCT AND MANNERS IN SCHOOLGood manners and conduct play a considerable part in de-

termining a person's success."Manners" is a much abused word, many people think that

by "putting on the airs" they are considered mannerly. But goodmanners come from within and have as their foundation goodbehavior and right conduct. Good manners are the repetition ofhabits until they naturally become a part of one, and it will helphigh school students if, early in their school career, they formgood habits of conduct.

Learn to listen. A student who keeps his eyes and ears openin class can carry his work with much less outside study.

Remember that honesty is the best policy. By cheating in aclassroom you are only hurting yourself.

Respect school property; if you see rubbish on the floor, pickit up and put it where it belongs.

Always be careful of your personal appearance but exerciseyour care in private, to comb hair, powder noses, and clean fingernails in public is not considered good taste.

Some high school students think that to be mannerly is to be a rubber band.

a "prude" or a "sissy." This is a wrong attitude to take.In conclusion, remember that manners reveal a person's char-

acter and are one of the first milestones to success and happiness.—C. T.

PROSPECTS LOOKGOOD FOR SEASON

On Nov. 16, girls reported to thefirst basketball practice of the season.We have every chance of having agood team this year, as there isplenty of good, material to work with.Most of the girls are quite tall andexperienced. Those who have re-ceived letters in the past are VivianLe Berth, Lillian Le Berth, Ruth Har-ris, Esther Gelb and Helen Geig.

The only girl out for manager isMary Burgeon.

The boys started practice on Nov.27. About 25 boys reported, includ-ing several freshies. The only lettermen are Gerald Stakes and GlenPatton. The others have all had ex-perience, however, and we can hopefor a fine team.

Upon interviewing the coaches andseveral students the following opin-ions were expressed:

Miss Taylor (coach of the girls)-"We have a good chance of winningthis year if we stick together andfollow the rules and regulations."

Mr. Kuder—"The girls have- plentyto work with and it all depends up-on themselves. If they work hard,learn what teamwork is and gain con-fidence in themselves, they have agood chance of winning."

Mr. Shupp (boys' coach)—"It'sproblematical!"

Gerald Stakes—"A successful teamdepends upon the school."

Glen Patton—"We have good ma-terial for a good team, if we co-operate."

Clark Witsaman—"Vas you dereSharlie? If you vas ve'll vin."

After two penalties, one of10 yards and the other of 15, theball was again placed in a scoringposition and Traxler plunged the linefor a touchdown. Stow failed in bothtries for the extra points which werewide place kicks.

The second quarter was fast andhard fought. Stow, at the beginningof this quarter, sent in a completesecond string backfield, which wasunable to advance into Greensburgterritory while on the offensive, andunable to defend while on the de-fensive. The second string men, how-ever, were soon repJ ed by the firstand through a Greensburg fumble re-covered by Stow the ball was againkicked in scoring position. Traxleragain plunged the line, scoring. Stowfailed to complete a pass in the tryfor the extra point.

on Oct. 27; when it was announced inassembly that they were to be a partof the program. The initiation ofvarious "Freshies" provided entertain-ment for all.

Perhaps the most interesting num-ber on the program was the song,"Reuben and Rachel," sung by BettyStrobl and Harold Stipe. Other fea-tures of interest were a solo by TomButowicz; tap dance by Bertha Has-kins (?) and Jim Mullins, a songby freshmen trio and a statue act bya group of freshmen. All respondedin a sportsman-like manner whencalled upon to do their part. Timewould not allow the initiation of allthe freshmen, but all took part in aclass pledge. A committee of six sen-iors, Natale Monastra, Ruth Anderson,Dave Burns, Vivian LeBerth, CarlHoffman and Dawn Vandersall, plan-ned this, program in order to makethe freshmen feel really a part of theschool.

Future programs are promising,too. Just a hint as to what theywill be like.

A WORD OF APPRECIATIONThe grade school appreciates

the interest shown during Na-tional Education Week by par-ents who visited the variousrooms of our building. In allthere were 65 parents, friendsand members of the board ofeducation present.

We need the co-operation ofthe entire community in order tohave a successful school, andespecially during times of eco-nomic stress. The school mustkeep open for the children thatare "passing that way now" andwho in the future will be theconsuming and producing citi-zens of our country. It is aproved fact that the more edu-cated class are the best buyers,and the ones who raise thestandard of our living.

The teachers invite the parentsto our school that they mayknow and become acquaintedwith us, and the work their chil-dren are doing.

ALUMNI GOSSIP

Turning back the pages of time, let'sstop at the class of 1932.

Staring up from the page we lookinto the laughing eyes of a boisterousred-headed boy, better known as PaulBrumbaugh, who is now working inthe steel mills at Canton, O. Besidehim a pair of flirtatious black eyes be-longing to Helen Workinger, tell usshe is training to become a nurse atthe City hospital. Next we see ElmerGeig. He developed his muscles byhelping his dad on the farm. Besidehim a chubby, rosy cheeked girl intro-duced to us as Rose Covey and whois studying at the Akron university,is saying something to her classmate,Jack Lidderdale. Jack's working atO'Neil's in the packing department.Jack's bashful, so we must go back tothe next row. At the end sits a smallbrunette with twinkling eyes and amischievious smile, we all know heras "The Girl From Out Yonder" orBeaty Yeater. She's working in NewBaltimore. There seems to be a bigjoke about something because OrphaDickeroff and Glenna Herr are bothlaughing. Orpha is still at home andGlenna, from the last report given us,was attending business college in Ak-ron. Looking back we see the joke, orrather jokes, in persons. They areMyron Koontz, Harold Hartong, SteveHoffman and John Imler. WhateverMike was trying to imitate we don'tknow, but we do know he's now one ofthe janitors of Greensburg high school.Harold and Johnny are at home andSteve is working in Clinton.

Last but not least, we come to Mar-jorie Scott. You all know Scatty, she'sat home.

In order to do this it wasdecided that representatives should bechosen from each class. The Seniorswere to have three representatives, theJuniors two, and the Sophomores andFreshmen each one.

Ballots were passed out among thestudents, and all voted for whom theywanted. When the ballots were countedit was discovered that only boys hadbeen elected. These were: NataleMonastra, David Burns, Glen Patton,John Hibbs, Dale Zink, Billy Gruverand James Mullins.

Feeling that the girls should havesome representation, the boys electedone Senior and one Junior girl. Theychose Vivian LeBerth and PaulineFranks.

At the first meeting of the athleticcouncil officers were elected as follows:David Burns, president; Natale Mo-nastra, vice president; Vivian LeBerth,

Miss Taylor Resolves ToKeep English Themes Outof the Bathroom

As 1934 looked over his book of NewYear's resolutions these are a few ofthe interesting secrets he disclosed.

Dale Strobl "claims" that he will notflip Caroline Toso with rubber bandsin commercial law class any more, andCaroline firmly resolves to keep awayfrom all shampoo and hair tonic. (Also3.2!) . Louise McChesney resolves notto ever, ever, smoke a pipe again, andas a matter of fact not to get near oneif she can help it. Bertha Haskins re-solves never to "monkey" with thelight bulbs on the bus any more, thatis, if Nick is not along; while he re-solves to stay from 25th and Fourthstreets in Canton. Miss Taylor firmlydeclares that hereafter she will keepall English themes out of the bath-room. Jay Muckley resolves (?) to seethat Eileen Hissem is home in bed at9 o'clock every night from now on.(Tish, tish, Jay, I know one resolutionthat will surely be broken!) DaveBurns solemnly promises that he willnot cause Miss Taylor any more em-barrassment in English class. Mr.Kuder resolves never to play basket-ball with girls again (they're toorough). Mr. Shupp has decided thatfrom now on he will use rose perfumeinstead of lilac. (Lilac isn't strongenough.) Way in the back of the bookwe find that Mary Belle Burgeon hasresolved never to make a bargain witha bus driver again, while last but notleast Inge Goring resolves to studyharder for fear she might "flunk." (Nodanger, Inge, no danger.)

Well, I extend my congratulationsto them and hope that they may up-hold their resolutions. But—I havemy doubts.

THE NEW YEARThe last leaf of 1933 has been turned over, and we are now

starting a new page in a new year. But let us turn back thepages of time for a few minutes. We find ourselves again atJan. 1, 1933.

Staring up at us from the first page we see a list of fine reso-lutions we had made and were bound and determined to keep.But did we? If some invisible hand had written down in blackink all the resolutions we kept and in red ink those that we broke, 1am afraid that the black would be far outnumbered by the red.

As we continue turning pages, many pleasant memories comeback to us. Memories that sometimes make us regret that theold year is gone.

But what is this we see? Entered in the book of time areless pleasant memories. Memories which we may have erasedfrom our minds but which are never completely wiped out. Somebroken resolutions, or some bitter, angry words we had spokenand which can never be recalled, no matter how we regret them.Memories which caused us heartaches then and which we still re-member with sorrow.

Finally we are at the last leaf of the book of time for 1933,and as we turn it over a fresh, blank sheet affronts us. It is thefirst page of 1934. Here again we have a list of new resolutionswe have made for this year. Let us profit from our .experiencesof last year and really keep our resolutions for this year. Forwhat good are resolutions if they are not kept?

It is only through self-determination that we can keep a reso-lution and each time that we break one we are lessening our self-determination and showing a weakness of character.

Let us have more pleasant happenings and memories in ourbook of time for this coming year and fewer of the unpleasantthan we had last year.

Keep the pages of this year as unmarked and as white aspossible.

USE THE LIBRARYThe pupils of Greensburg High are urged to make use of our

library. The library is limited, but there are more than enoughbooks if everyone should want to take one out. Each pupil shouldmake it his habit to use the facilities that are on hand to help himin his studies. The library is there for anyone to use providingthat he takes care of the books.

The school has recently obtained 100 volumes from the OhioState Library. The books obtained are of use for reference, forwork in all of our classes., and for recreation. The school sub-scribes to many magazines. These are in the library at all timesto be used for reference, current news and many other purposes.

Perhaps no better place can be found in a school, outside of aclassroom, than a library. Here one can find the answer to manyperplexing problems. Books and facts are the tools of thought

ONE POINT LEADWINS TWO GAMES

Greensburg opened the season Dec.8, by playing Tallmadge, here.

The Greensburg girls went out onthe floor, confident of an easy vic-tory. However, they were soon shakenout of it by Tallmadge's lighter, fasterteam and found themselves behind atthe half, 8-7.

Coming out more with determina-tion .than confidence at the secondhalf, they fought doggedly during" thethird quarter to wrest the lead, 13-12.The last quarter was the best of all,honors being even. "Sis" LeBerthfinally clinched the game with twopoints to win 17-16.

The boys had just two lettermenback for their first game. They hadhad only a short time to practice. Bothof these factors showed up in. the firsthalf. They couldn't seem to get going.At the half they were trailing 9-4. Butthe second half was altogether differ-ent. With "Spec" Stake leading therally they finally took the lead at 12-11at the third quarter and held it.

We highly approve of the musicalprogram at Springfield. Why can'tsuch a program be carried out everyyear? At least, we would like to hearmore of the orchestra.

and one cannot hope to reach right conclusions with inadequatetools. It has been found that many are not using the library.There is one group ' which makes excessive use of the library,showing better grades. Another group uses it only a little. Thelibrary is there for one purpose—to help the pupils in their work.

The faculty and the school board have tried to strengthenour library. Outsiders have donated more books. Now it is upto the pupils to make use of the library and take care of the books.The faculty feels that it will help you in your studies. Those whohave used the library have probably found that it has helped them.

Be sure to make use of the library.—R. H.

The Greensburg varsity was the vic-tor in a fast, high-pitched battle atGreentown; Friday, Dec. 15, the finalscore being 21-19. The reserves like-wise came through with a winningscore of 32-17.

During the first quarter Greentownpiled up a score of 11 points to threefor Greensburg. Greensburg retaliatedat the beginning of the second quarter,however, by holding their opponentsdown to one goal. and one free shot,and dropping in two goals for them-selves.

When the second half began thescore was a little off color, but the"Black and Orange" kept striving forwhat they knew was their victory.The team was. forced to withdraw theonly two lettermen remaining fromlast year, Stake and Patton. This didnot injure; the morale of the team asthe spectators had expected, but seem-ed to urge them to do better, for thethird quarter ended 17-14 with Greens-

Black and Orange MeetSecond Defeat

The "Black and Orange" were de-feated Friday night, Jan. 5, at Bath,by a score of 23-17. This is their sec-ond defeat to be received in theirgames away from home.

The game was marked by unusuallyrough play. A total of 28 fouls wascalled in all during the game.

The first goal was made by Bath,but Greensburg quickly retaliated witha free throw and a goal. Bath againwent into the lead when McKisson,Bath's center, recovered the ball underthe hoop and dropped it in. Greens-burg was playing heads-up ball andclicked with mid-season precision whenthe first quarter ended.

The second quarter was evenlymatched. Stake, Greensburg's rightforward, placed two goals by fast andheady playing. Vandersall, Greens-burg's center, made good two freethrows and when the half ended thescore was 11-10, with Bath at the bigend.

At the beginning of the second halfBath chalked up a lead which it re-tained for the remainder of the gamebut Greensburg did not let up on thefast playing that marked the firstquarter but still, try as they might, itseemed as though the ball just wouldn 'tgo through the circle.

STOW - GREENSBURGDIVIDE THE HONORS

On Dec. 22 Greensburg played itsthird game of the season, at Stow.

Stow had a flashy, fast girls' team,but the Greensburg lassies kept up withthem. In fact, the score changed sev-eral times during the first half whichended 12-12. With the defense tight-ened in the second half our girls man-aged to hold Stow until they could ob-tain a safe lead. The game was mark-ed by its clean play, only a very fewfouls being called. Greensburg waserratic, however, on its shooting andpassing which kept them from scoringconsiderably more.

The Greensburg boys found them-selves at a great disadvantage in heightand found it hard to keep the ballfrom Stow or to keep Stow from shoot-ing. Fouls helped us to keep in therunning, trailing only 9-7 at the half.Long shots gave Stow a considerablelead in the second half which developedinto a fast passing game. The secondthalf was quite tough. Although welost 20-12, we are not ashamed of thescore, as we believe Stow has one ofthe best teams in the county.

discussion was that of transportationto and from the basketball games ofthe season. A bus was secured fromMr. Parks and it was decided that theplayers, coaches, managers and cheerleaders shall be transported free ofcharge. Two buses will be used .if atleast 20 people occupy the second bus.The price for a round trip is 15 centsper person.

The system of choosing cheer leadershas been changed from what it hasbeen in the past. Each year there havebeen awarded from four to six lettersfor cheer leading, and it was felt thatthese letters were not really appre-ciated because they were so easily ob-tained. Out of the seven candidateswere chosen Eileen Hissem and Bettyand Luella Corbin. At the end of theseason a head cheer leader shall bechosen from these three, and "to thisperson shall be awarded the _ cheerleading letter.

Dear Parents:The next time you pass a school,

pause a moment to think what thatschool means to humanity. Recall thelong dark centuries when the masseswere kept in ignorance, when greed andoppression ruled the world with aniron hand. From the very beginningof man's struggle for knowledge, selfrespect, and the recognition of his in-alienable rights, the school has beenhis greatest ally. We refer to theschool as "common" because it belongsto all of us; it is ourselves working to-gether in the education of . our chil-dren. But it is a most uncommon in-stitution. It is relatively new.

Green Township Community InstituteCWA Project ToBe Undertaken

The school board has received wardof the approval by the state of a pro-ject to be undertaken for Green town-ship schools.

The project allows for an appropria-tion of $6,800 to be used for labor, andone of $1,120 to be used for materials,in improving the appearance of theschool grounds.

This will insure work for 40 men forabout 30 days.

The school grounds of both buildingsare to be graded and the driveways areto be graveled. The football field ofthe high school, which was surveyedand started last year, will be finished,and we hope to be able to play ourgames on. our own field next fall.

If, after these projects have beencompleted, there are sufficient fundsleft, the interior of the school build-ings will be painted.

This project will not only providework for several men, but will also im-prove and beautify the appearance ofour schools and their grounds.

CELEBRATING ANAGE OLD CUSTOM

St. Valentine's Day Is HereHurry, scurry, hither and thither,

are you wondering what all the com-motion is about? Why, don't youknow, Valentine's day is just aroundthe corner? It's rather odd, isn't it,as to how this custom has been carrieddown through the ages? Why, manyyears ago, in fact so long ago that noone knows the exact date, our celebra-tion on Feb. 14 originated. It is saidthat some time during the middle ages,certainly as early as Chaucer, theyoung folks of the hamlets of England,Scotland and parts of France assem-bled on St. Valentine's eve and drewnames by chance from an urn. Thenthe persons whose name was on theslip was the holder's "Valentine" orsweetheart for a year. Later the noblestook up the custom and presents wereexchanged and services performed likethose of the mediaeval knight for hislady.

Also this custom resembles one of theRoman youths in the feast of "Luper-calia" held in February, and attributethe use of the name of a saint for theday to an effort of the early Chris-tians to improve a pagan custom thatcould not be wholly stamped out.

Today we celebrate this age-old cus-tom by giving parties, plays and en-tertainments dealing with the subjectand sending valentines expressinghumor, sentiment and our good feelingmuch in the same way as sendingChristmas cards. But when and howthe old customs were changed into thesending of our valentines—both ofridiculous and pretty sorts—no oneknows.

MUSIC AND ART IN SCHOOLMusic and art have always had a pronounced effect upon the people of

every nation. It likewise plays an equally important part in the life ofevery child. No. we are not trying to make Chopins or Leonardo de Vincisin our schools by making music and art a part of our everyday program.We are, however, trying to prepare children to enjoy adult life to its fullest,extent. The best preparation for a rich, complete and worthy adult life ismaking the child's present life and experiences as complete as possible.

If, through music and art, we stimulate appreciation for the . finer thingsin life and also furnish an outlet for the child's emotional nature, we needno further reasons to conclude that music and art are a vital part of everyschool program and are not the often so-called "frivolities."

P. GRAVEN

LEADERSHIP OF WASHINGTONNo nobler figure ever stood in the forefront of a nation's life than George

Washington. He was grave and courteous in address; his manners weresimple and unpretentious; his silence and the serene calmness of his temperspoke of a perfect self mastery; but there is little in his outer bearing toreveal the grandeur of soul which lifts his figure, with all the simplemajesty of an ancient statue, out of the smaller passion's, the meaner im-pulses of the world around him.

-Now that we have described Washington's wonderful personality; let us

see if we, the younger generationg cannot follow his splendid example. Themasterful thoughts of great minds are ours for the asking. We should reada large variety of biographies of famous personalities and choose from themone character after whom we wish to pattern our lives. After we have thatsettled in our hearts we . should read as much about this character as wecan find and put all the good points of this character into practice through-out our daily lives. When a person reads what other great minds havedone in the face of difficulty and discouragement, he has a burning desireto go and do likewise. Just as "we recognize in a work of genius our re-jected thoughts," so. we often see ourselves in the pages of a great book.

Let us in the future learn to think for ourselves and not wait for othersto voice the things that we have thought out long before but were afraid tobring to the eyes of the world.

I turn on a few bright lights,for I am foolishly scary. Seeing thatno one could possibly be hiding in asecluded corner, I begin preparing mylessons.

GREENSBURG-CLINTONDIVIDE THE HONORS

In a hard fought battle on their ownfloor, Friday, Jan. 12, the Greensburglassies managed to stay on top by de-feating the Clinton sextet, last year'scounty champs, by a score of 18-17.The score at the end of the first halfwas 11-8, with Greensburg at the bigend.

Greensburg tried in vain to holddown Hammer, Clinton's right forward,by using three different guards. Ham-mer, however, seemed unmolested andcontinued to score, making all pointsfor the losers. Ruth Harris, Greens-burg's left forward, led the way with .four field goals and two free throws.

The fast play on the part of bothteams made the game extremely ex-citing.

Fighting a game but losing battle,Greensburg boys dropped a bitterlycontested tilt to Clinton on the for-mer's home floor, 26-24.

Clinton succeeded in keeping a slimlead up until the final quarter whenGreensburg took a two-point leadwhich it retained but a very shorttime. Beech, Clinton's right guard,dropped in an unexpected goal fromthe center of the floor, tying the score,and during ,the remaining several sec-onds another shot found the hoop,clinching victory for Clinton.

The business depression has calledthe attention of the young men andwomen of the country in a very forci -ble manner to the fact that they mustsecure an education which will fit themto earn a living.

This accounts for the fact that thou-sands of young men and women inOhio are interested in training whichwill enable them to get ready for po-sitions as stenographers, accountants,secretaries, civil service and manyother kinds of work.

The Oberlin School of Commerce hasbecome a leader in this field. It ad-mits only those who have graduatedfrom high school and many have hadcollege training. This accounts forunusual demand for its graduates. Itoffers two-year business and secre-tarial courses as well as shorter coursesfor those who must spend a shortertime in their preparation.

The business depression now seemsdefinitely to be lifting. The demandfor graduates of the Oberlin School ofCommerce is now greater than for morethan two years. Positions have beensecured recently at Akron, Cleveland,Elyria, Lorain and other places. TheCivil Works Administration in thevarious counties and particularly atElyria is using a number of OberlinSchool of Commerce graduates as ac-countants, stenographers and statis-ticians.

350 TO 400 CHICKSRAISED IN ONE CROP

A movable brooder house largeenough to house 350 to 400 chicks at atime, small enough to be moved easily,and cheap enough to be within themeans of any poultryman, is illustratedand described in the January issue ofPoultry Pointers sent out by the Agri-cultural Extension service of the OhioState university.

The brooder stove has proved itssuperiority over the hen for the aver-age farmer as a means of broodingchicks with a minimum of labor, costand mortality, according to R. E. Cray,poultry specialist of Ohio State uni-versity. He says success in raisingchicks with the brooder stove dependsto a large extent an the kind of housein which it is used. The house de-scribed is 12 feet square, is large enoughto permit good ventilation, and also toallow the chicks room to get away fromthe stove and into cooler air.

Success in poultry farming dependson raising strong, vigorous pullets.This, says Mr. Cray, can best be ac-complished either by moving the chicksto fresh ground each year where thereis an abundance- of green feed, or byraising the chicks in strict confine-ment. The brooder house cannot bemoved unless it is portable, but a port-able brooder house can be used for con-finement brooding. The house de-scribed has been designed for a brooderhouse, but can easily be changed intoa laying house to accommodate about35 birds. Perches and dropping boardsare all that need to be added to changethe house into a laying house.

SPRING FEVER GETS STUDENTSSchool Fair IsTo Be Staged

Carnival and Chicken Sup-per Features

A school fair is to be given on April20, in the Greensburg grade and highschool buildings. This is to displaywork of the different classes donethroughout the year. Nothing of thissort has been tried recently, but it isbeing done in the hopes that it willbecome an annual affair. This willbring parents into closer contact withthe school and faculty and will enablethem to view the work which theirchildren are doing. It will furnish thepupils with more incentive to do betterwork. The parents will become unitedwith the school and a social field willbe found.

History, agriculture, home economics,Latin, English and science classes areworking on special projects for the fair.The American history students arewriting theses on material connectedwith history and current events. Theagriculture class is composing theses


BOARD MAKESA NEW RULING

The board of education has had con-siderable difficulty during the past yearin regard to the age a child must beto enter school. At a regular meetingheld Feb. 12, the following motionwas adopted: That all children mustbecome six years of age before Jan. 1,and those entering school must pre-sent a birth certificate.

This means that if your child be-comes six years of age on Jan. 1 orafter, he cannot start to school untilthe next fall. There will be no excep-tions to this rule. We believe this rulewill be fair to everyone, and we wantthe parents to know about it in plentyof time, then there will be no questionnext fall as to whether or not yourchild may start to school.

Sleepiness Is Quite the RageThese Days

Ah-h, what a feelin' there is in theair. Everything is so—well, you knowwhat I mean. These were the thoughtsthat passed through my mind as I satin the noisy classroom. Oh, how I didlong to be out in the wide open spaces.Around me could be heard a noisybuzz and occasionally the tapping ofa pencil or the vicious slam of a book:

I leaned my head upon my handand gazed longingly out of the w:ndow.But what was that—I heard a• tinyvoice at my elbow calling "Johnny,Johnny." Turning I beheld a tinyman, all in green. He danced merrilyup and down and all over my desk.He looked up at me and said, "Wouldn'tyou like to go fishing?", hardly givingme time to answer "Yes," and zoom-m-m-b-b-g-swish, and there I was on thebank of the most tempting lookingcreek anyone ever saw. Along theshores there were rows and rows ofstick-candy trees and the leaves weremint drops. When I stooped to get adrink I found the water was soda-pop.

FAREWELLAnother school year is swiftly drawing to a close and to most of us in the

senior class it will mean the end of school life. But our life in the world isjust beginning, and as we are about to pass the threshold of school for the lasttime as a student, we pause for a moment and begin to realize what school hasreally - meant to us.

Our best years have been spent here, the years of childhood and youth.Here we have been taught morals and principles of living which we will neverforget and which will become of service to us as we approach manhood andwomanhood. We have rejoiced with each other's happiness and sympathizedwith each other's sorrow. We have made friendships which will be more firmlycemented as the years roll by. All that we are and all that we may hope to bewe owe to the teachings we have had in school and to the loyal friendshipsand assistance of our teachers.

It is going to be hard to say farewell to school and to our fellow school-Mates although many of us have never realized it before. It is going to hurtto have to. give up all the school activities in which we have had a part. Thosewho have been on athletic teams, the staff, the athletic council and other or-ganizations will regret having to give up our work.

We are leaving and the positions which ,we have had will be 'filled by thosewho are now under-classmen. To you we say, start your work where ours leftoff. Farewell from the senior class.

—C. T.

THE EDUCATION OF TOMORROW -The schools of our country are subject to a change in every field of edu-

cation.One of the most, obvious faults of our educational system at present is the

long summer vacations. During this time most children are accustomed to un-limited freedom and are seldom under supervised organization.

Another fault with many of our schools is the absolute dependence placedupon the text books. We find children learn more rapidly if they are able totake an active part in the project.

-The schools of the future will have a longer school term, but a shorter day.The schedule will have more time devoted to physical activities. This will

be necessary since children must be taught how to use their leisure time.The time is swiftly coming when there will be no fixed, uniform training.

There cannot be a mold ,patterned for groups of children because each child isdistinctly different. Therefore we are endeavoring to find each child's sphereand place him in it, thus eliminating many misfits in the social world.

—B. TRITT.

WE WISH TO EXPLAINThe editor is in receipt of an anonymous letter since the last issue concern-

ing a statement about scholarship made in a recent editorial. We are verysorry if anyone misunderstood our meaning as we had no intention of castingany_reflection upon the faculty or student body of the past. But we feel thatour statements were correct for the scholarship tests at Copley have proventhat our school this year has the highest standing it has ever had since thesetests were given and as far as we have any records of.

.This letter was received from five members of the alumni association whofailed to sign their names but asked that the letter be printed word for word.We would have liked to have printed your letter in this issue, but as it is nota good newspaper policy to print anonymous letters we feel that we cannot do so.

We regret that we did not have your signatures for this issue for we willnot be able to print your letter in our senior issue.

SPRING BASEBALLIn the spring when the fancies of

the young men turn to baseball, thereis a probability that there will be aflourish of baseball mitts, balls andbats. This is only partially true atGreensburg; the lballs and bats areprevalent, but the mitts are out.

The intramural softball tournamentopened last week in accordance withthe fine weather. The seniors lost thefirst game played to the juniors, by ascore of 14-12.

From the results of these games Mr.Shupp expects to choose a softball teamto play two games already scheduledwith Coventry.

DON'T KILL OFF BIRDSAND GAME BY FIRE

The state division of conservation ismaking an appeal to farmers andcounty commissioners and all authori-ties who plan burning operations infields and waste places and alonghighway to delay such activities untilafter the nesting season. Conserva-tion of wild life is the basis of this re-quest.
