School Paper. WjMji
a m of the paper
We w ,n to present as the first
aim 0 f this paper “To Boost Our
School.” What is meant when we
;; y l)0 ost our school? Does it mean
thi.t we must grope about with a
expression, and say our school
is " no good; or I can’t learn for vari
ous reasons, and sav this or that can’t
I e don( .. and look into the next school
&Ay with a long sigh and wish you
were dead, and never smile hut still
hold that dead expression?
Certainly not! It means to go a
hoUt our work with a smile and a
willing mind and say that it can be
done, and that we are the best in
the world and never give up, for
quitters never accomplish anything;
hut encourage each other, help each
other solve the problems that look
dark at times. That is what is meant
when we say, “Boost our School.’’
So let's all pull together; we want
cur patrons and friends to back us
up ana help us make this the biggest
vear in the history of C. H. S.
Second, we want to inform the
public with regard to what is being
done in our school. We expect to
publish in thea paper every month
just what we are doing, both along
bite ran,' and Athletic lines. We
are going to prove what we are ca
pable of doing.
Third: Give publicity to, and cul
tivate better relations with and be
tween the various organizations,
working in connection with the school
We want to put the various organi
zations of the school and those work
ing in connectino with the school,
in the public eye and develop closer
relations between them and co-oper
ate more, thereby develop a friend
ship that will tend to help us in the
various work that we undertake and
attempt to perform.
Fourth: Boost the community.
Never knock the community in which
"e live, but “whoop it up.’’ Re
member we have wonderful possi
bilities and opoortunities to accom
plish great things if we would only
take advantage of them. And it is
the duty of every individual to see
that this is done. And the only way
k do this is Boost the community,
ami learn to appreciate the many ad
vantages that we have. Through
this paper we want to do our share
* n making our community the best
a nd make life worth living. “Life is
what we make it.” So it is with our
community; it is what we make it.
Fpfth: To give the pupils of C.
S. an opportunity to express
themselves and show what they can
and develop initiatives. And to
faise the ideals of the student body
spiritually, morally, mentally and
Physically, and gives us a higher
conception of life arid the things
•hat tend to make us one hundred
P'- r cent Americans.

Friendship

life with the idea that they need no
friends —that they are better off
Without any one in whom to confide.

business that they take no time to
cultivate acquaintances. They walk
down the street staring straight a
head or with their eyes on the ground
paying no attention to any one whom
they may pass.
They succeed in their business '
not because of their personality but
in spite of it. They do not attract
customers but rather repel them.
Their success is due to their close
application to their knack of buying
what people want.
But there comes a day in the lives,
of such men when they realize their
folly —when they awaken to the.
fact that one of the joys of life is
the friendships that may be formed
and strengthened as times goes on.
When it dawns on this type of men
that they have made a mistake they
turn to those who should have been
their friends for friendship and find
that it is too late. The mistakes of
this kind of a life is so apparent that
there is no excuse for it.
The man who thinks he does not
want friends is all out cf tune and
he deserves what he gets when he
arrives at the point where his mis-,
taken viewpoint in life is realized.
Making friends is easy with some
ieople; with others it is difficult;
out he who wants friends needs only
to be friendly.
Friendly men like friendly com
munities attract friendly men. Nq
place is going to advance very far
unless its people have a spirit of
"riendliness, for without a sympa
thetic understanding of each others
problems, co-operation and mutual
helpfulness is impossible.

SEPTEMBER
“Yellow, mellow ripened days,
Sheltered in a golden coating;
O’er the dreamy,, listless haze.
White and dainty cloudless floating;
Winking at the blushing trees, #
And the sombre, furrowed fallow
Smiling at the airv ease,
Of the southv/ard flying swallow.
Sweet and smiling are thy ways,
' Beauteous, golden Autumn days.”
