OUR CLASH—TUB ('IASS OF 19111.
We ari! proud of our record. Through
out the whole high school course the
class of 1916 has stood for the best,
in both scholarship and athleticH. On
all questions which concern the pro
gress and well-being of the school our
class has stood strong in that school
spirit without which a school cannot
live. We are determined now that this,
our last year at Newnan high school,
shall be our liest.
NEWNAN IS MY TOWN.
Newnan, Newnan, fair little city of
our grand Southland! Who does not
thrill with joy to Bay “Newnan m my
town?" The towering, snow capped
peaks of the Rockies; the vast, grassy
plains of the West; the magnificent,
awful canyons of Colorado, with the
majestic river threading its way to the
bob; the terrible geysers and unique
scenery of Yellowstone Park - these,
these all fill one with overwhelming
sensations of awe, admiration and rev
erence. Yet amidst such wonderful
grandeur there comes a longing, a ho mi -
sickness for the dear old roil hills, the
sweet-scented pines, the fields of cotton
and corn, the rippling streams that, sur
round Newnan Even the. sky seems
clearer and bluer, the atmosphere purer
and lovelier, and how happy to say:
“Newnan is my town!"
Where can one find a more thrifty,
enterprising town? where a more cul
tured, Christian, godly citizenship?
where such beautiful houses of wor
ship and such pastors?—where such a
school, such n superintendent, and such
splendid instructors ns Newnan boasts?
Where, when in need or distress, or
when dieose and death hang like a pall
over a household—where, again I say,
will one tind a people more willing to
lend a helping hand, more full of love,
tenderness, sympathy “weeping with
those who weep and rejoicing wilti
those who rejoice?”

THE PRESENT W AIt TO A FINISH,
l’eace proposals have no more chance
at the present Hinge of the war than
Noah's dove would have had in the very
tom nt and whirlwind of the Hood.
None of the issues on which the strug
gle began have yet been decided, and
until they ure waged to a definite con
clusion there will be no grounds for n
substantial, abiding pe,.cc, either in
Europe or the rest of the world. A
patched-up settlement would mean only
another and perhaps more terrible war
in the future. This is not simply u con
tost of armies; it is a contest of sys
terns and ideals. It must be determined
on that broad basis, or not at all. Aside
from the general consideration of the
specific fact that while the Teutonic
powers are now at the limit of their
strength, and near the limit of their
endurance, the Allies have not yet
retched the maximum of their re
sources; and it is inconceivable that the
Allies would conclude terms of peace
with an enemy who, although now on
trenched on their own soil, hut against
whom they are bringing contmuHlIy
greater pressure, urn) whom they have
fair hopes of dislodging, if not over
whelming. Furthermore, England, Rus
sia, France, Italy, and more recently
Japan, have all hound themselves not
to enter into peace negotiations. Ger
many must crush them all before she
can bring any to terms; and yet no one
of them shows signs of collapse. Berlin
and Vienna would nuturully welcome
peace at this stage of the war, upon
their own terms; but the Allies are in
the war to a finish, and are determined
to blot out Germany or lose the whole
game, - [Raymond Martin.
Mr. Armistead has received a letter
from Dr. Gaines, president of Agnes
Scott College, otTerwg a scholarship to
a graduate from Newnan high school.
We are very proud of this honor, for
we know that it is u result of the good
work of our representatives at that in
stitution. Those attending Agnes Scott
from Newnan are Mary Freeman, Mary
How to Prevent Croup.
It may be a surprise to you to learn
that it, many cases croup can be prr-
venttd. Mis. H. M. Johns, Hilda,
Ohio, relates her experience as follows:
“My little boy is subject to croup.
During the past winter I kept a bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in the
hi use, and when he began having that
eroupy cough I would give him one or
two doses of it and it weuld break tin
attack. 1 like it better lor children
than any other rough medicine because
children take it willingly, and it is safe
and reliable." Obtainable everywhere.
Katherine Parks and Almeda Hutche
son. Those are the only graduates of
our school who have entered Agnes
Scott since the eleventh grade wns
added, and they are the first to enter
above the academy.

Mr. White, (after talking several
minutes and trying to explain clearly a
point in history)—"Now, Miss ,
do you understand it?"
Miss — , (doubtfully) — "Yes, I
suppose so."
Mr. White—“Now, we don't wnnt
any supposing. If you don't under
stand it wo shall talk about it some
more.”
Miss , (very pleased)—“Well,
then, talk some more.”
The question now arises: What was
so interesting, the history lesson or the
talking?
Bradley Askew, ono of the star En
glish pupils, says that “Christmas Car
ols" was a play written by Shakespeare
especially for a Christmas celebration.
J. H. By ram says the New England
settlers executed many men witches,
just because they were ugly.
Hurrah for Arthur Murphey! It has
been a long time since we have seen his
name on the honor roll.
What is that little thing around Sa
rah Davis' neck that she is always Hip
ping at the boys?
We!have heardof girls keeping “hope
chests," but is reported that the moth
er of one of our N. H. S. boys has al
ready begun crocheting for his wife.
Girls, here's your chance!
No wonder Thomas Bradley can use
long wordit. He had a better start than
the rest of us. His first word was a
compound one —“up-’tairs."
Miss Atkinson—“Florence, can you
go real quietly into the boys’ room and
rrow u compass for me?"
Florence Askew, (very much embar
rassed) - "Oh, Miss Louise, 1 can’t; my
shoes creak I”

While the i Iiihs was discussing Pris
cilla's question to John Alden, ("Why
don’t you speak for yourself, John?")
Sarah Davis confided to a girl near her,
in a loud whisper, “That reminds me
of what I said to a John once."
The girls’ basket ball team is getting
in some good practice, as several games
lire being scheduled for a near date.
We will have a large number of excel-
l.nt players from whom to select a
team.
All the pupils of the high school will
be delighted to know that Mias Eliza
beth Gibson has returned from the hos
pital in Chicago, after a successful
operation.
Among those from Newnan who at
tended the foothull game in Gritlin last
Friday were all of the high school
teachers; also, Messrs. Ed Cole, Pal
Bradley and Henry Israel, Dr. Will
Turner, Misses Sallie Kirby, Louise
Gibson, Jennie Fowler, Sarah Davis,
and Mrs. Henry Israel. All the New-
nan people went through in cars, and
enjoyed the game very much.
The high school pupils appreciate
very much the kindness shown them by
Mr. Chas. Leres on Wednesday last.
All the money taken in, above ex
penses, was given to the high Behool,
which was well represented at The Hal
cyon on that day. Wo received §8 as
our part of the receipts.
Miss Mary Freeman, of Agnes Scott,
and Miss Mildred Arnall, of Shorter,

homes.
November Days.
November is Bt hand. It is the In
dian summer-time. What a glorious
achievement Nature has brought a'.out
this year in this month of autumnal
spring! Her colorings hnve blended
into a multitudinous harmony in wood
and dale. The atmosphere has been
balmy, yet crisp and clear; the temper
ature of a kind that invitee the heart to
outings.
Commingling amid the riot of beauty,
it has been almost bewildering, for the
Beenes change as one moves through
the maze of color, presenting new
achemes of grandeur at every turn.
It is inconceivable from whence
comes all this recurring glory.
The naturalist tells of the mineral
deposits that seep up through the living
pores of vegetation and through the
veins of leaves, and thus we get the
alchemy of nature that enthrals the
mind and beautifies the whole world.
Whatever the process, its mystery is
no greater than the great canvas it
paints ia beautiful.
At this time Nature is a great, feel
ing composition—a masterpiece from the
hand of the Maker of all good and per
fect gifts.
He who cannot respond to the touch
of heavenly joy all around at this lime
must be indeed callous to the meaning
of a heart-throb.
One day recently an elderly farmer
drove into town and hitched his team
to a telegragh post.
"Here!" yelled a policeman, "you
cun’t hitch there!”
"CHn’t. hitch! “Why not?" shouted
the farmer. Why have you got that
si-n up then, ‘Fine for hitching?’ ’’

NEWNAN HIGH SCHOOL DEFEATS GRIF
FIN HIGH SCHOOL.
Newnan high school defeated Gridin
high school in a hard-fought baitle on
Friday, fith inst. About forty Newnan
people motored over to Griffin to wit
ness tho game. The game was called
nt 2:20 p. m. Gritlin kicked off to New
nan and in about six minutes our boys
hud the ball behind their opponents’
goal. In the second quarter Goldstein,
for Gritlin, broke through our line and
ran for about sixty yards for a touch
down. Turnipseed kicked goal. This
gave the Griffin boys a new spirit, and
it looked as if they would cross our
goal again, but our line held tight in
the pinches, and finally the first half
ended with the ball in Griffin’s posses
sion, just a few yards this side of the
goal - Gritlin high school 7, Newnan
high school 6. During the next half
Newnan made two touchdowns, which
added 12 points to our score made in
the first half. Simms grabbed a for
ward pass and ran about sixty yards
for our second touchdown. This was
the prettiest play of the game. Later
Powell went through the line for anoth
er count. The stars were Powell, Cook,
Simms, Askew and Martin for Newnan
high school, hiu! Goldstein and Turnip
seed for Gritlin. The game ended IS to
7 in our fHvor. This makes three
games our boys have played, and they
have not yet met defeat, their goal be
ing crossed only one time this season.
