HONOR ROLL
- As one reads the list of names this
month  an    increase -will   be   noticed
over the number printed' last month.
Perhaps more have finally decided
to-concentrate JJieir minds upon the
work thlat is planned for them. "To
concentrate" means more, to some
than to otitaers. A few may think that
half of a 45 .minute period Is all that
i-3 require'! for most subjects. This
might iiold true for some, still the
greater number of pupi"s in school
h*ere need to devote more time than
that to learn the easiest lessons. As
a rule those who spend tihe least time,
in preparation for .a subject are
those witllu tlie low mairks. They, too,
are tihe ones who need to arrange
greater periods of time per lesson than
others. The people who 'are continually gazing upon the other occupants
of the study ha),l hardly ever fall to
accomplish nothing in tha end. For
some the lessons are very hard, but
they can be completed, and although
the person receives a> low mark at
first, even after he has sspent a considerable amount of time on the subject, in the end, or maybe in a nmoth
or two, Should nob be surprised if he
finds am A or B on his card. There
is not a. teacher in our school who
wi'l,1. not award an A or B if the
student has earned it, and so any person in school doesn't need to think he
should always .have A's or B's, be-
icause thev simply haven't; been earned.
Many who .have been getting hig'h
grades for a long time are surpri-ed
to see -ai person with a comparativel>
lower standard boasting a higher
standing in one subject than fchey cm
show. Tho reason is simply this:
Tlie one has fa'.len down to a certain
extent, while the other has.put! forth
an extra effort and is proud of his
grade Any person in sehool should
feel that something has bom accomplished when a report card is received
with all A's and B's on it. although
iit is no idisgra'ce to get lower marks,
nor is it an honor. For those who
do not find their names published
this*week It is advisable to see if jnst-
a Utile more cannot be accomplished
nex month.

I WONDER
I wonder if when I've passed on,
Tho things I've done while here on
earth
Will keep on moving down  thru time
And   nu-vinsr   on.   will  prove   thier
worth-
I wonder if the deed* I've done,
Will fan some tiny spark of life
Into a glowing friendliness,
To dull the edge of earthly strife.
I wonder if the life l*ve lived,
Will leave a lit'rle less of pain;
If what- 1'^e been litis been some good
I will not then have lived in vain.
—Roger L.  Waring.
