HIGH SCHOQL LOG Published by the students of Ligonier Hizgh Schoeol in the interests of the friends and supporters of the institution. : - v . Editorial Board—Helen Rurtz, Dan Inks, Irene Johnson, David Dunkle. Appreciation of the Annual. I do not know much about the origin of Annuals esgpeegially in this school but it seems to be a well established custom of publishing an edition every year. : ; The Annual is a book which gives the pictures of the graduates, tells of the doings of each ‘class, has snapshote relating te sehool life and a ~omplete write-up of the athletic work of the year. Its purpose is to give the student a means of remembering the activities -f their high school career. I believe “The Annual”’ is a great means of keeping the town in touch ~ith the school. I believe it is an es‘ential in this town as the town is ‘uite independent of the support of every one who is interested in keeping th school alive.—By Floyd Borger Mrs. Stansbury. '~ Mrs. Stansbury is our city librarian and fills this position admirably. We ppreciate her attitude towards this work very much may she continue to reep the good work up. She is a very great help as Librarian to ithe 3chool students not gnly of Ligonier ut of our -neighboring towns. She is - ‘ery willing to help anyone who may ome and ask her any questions on Jdterature. Mrs. Stansbury is also the Presi‘ent of our School Board. She fills his place also very admirably and we hope she may continue to fill it In both places Mrg. Stansbury is a tiend of everybody's.—By ' Doris "lowers. ‘ . : A New Gym. There are many reasons why we should have a new gym. The first one is that our old gym is almost at A state of ruin and is really unfit to lay in. The plaster is likely to fall off the ceiling or the side walls and lit you when you are playing or a oose board and fall, and if you do fall t ig easy to get splinters in yourself. Anlother reason it is unsafe is because he walls are right at the edge of the loor at the ends. Any player is like'y to run into the wall and break his eck or head. All the boards in the ‘loor are loose and give when you step or bounce the ball on them. This lakes it hard for the team to play vhen they go to a good floor. The -all will bounce much higher and straiter on a hard floor than on ours. nother disavantage is how to handle the people, only about one fourth of he people can have seats, the rest must stand up. We could also make much more money if the floor was nasier to get to, because many people stay away because they don’t like to :limb the stairs. A new gym would cause much more nep, and induce the students to do better work. There would be many boys who would become better athletes
and in this way raise our standipg as a school where ever we were represented by them. . Making the accomodationg better would enable us to schedule with better teams. It is difficult for us to get games with towns * who have goad gyms, We can’t blame them they can’t play on a floor entirely different from own and we can’t play on floors we aren ot used to. I actually think that half the people in town thought we had a chance to beat Muncie. We did but under the circumstances it could scarcely have been recognized. Muncie had the best gym in the state and we didn’t know how to act when we were there—By Bob Wigton. ; Chamber of Commerce of Ligonier
The Chamber of Commerce of Ligonier has done some excellent work since it has been organized. Rach vear they raise a band fund for -the support of the city band. This year they had some money left over so they gave it to the school band for the services they had rendered. Another prominent thing they did was to estahlish Tardy Day and give away money to the holders of the lucky tickets. Giving away money attracted many out side people to this town and therefore promoted the busines of the merchants. What the Chamber of Commrce will do next year is vet to be found out, but whatever it is will probably be bigger and better than what they did this year—By Adrain ‘Wolfe. . : There was a short meeting Monday of the S. A. F. club. _ ; Seniorg had a class meeting Monddy after school. The band will accompany the teams fto Bremen Friday night. Some time in January the band will give a musical concert. : : There was a meeting Friday afternoon of the Literary Digest Club. Some interesting topics were given by different members of the club and were discussed later by the members. A meeting of the Freshmen class was held Monday, December 14th to get the opinion of the class on some important matters. : e o ‘ FOR RENT—S. room flat on Cavin street. Apply - Citizen!

Spanisk Brought the Orange Into America The orange was criginally a natlve of Indla, South China or the Malay archipelago. But ity Hindu or Sanskrit name was long age Influenced by the Latin word “aurum,” or the French “or,” meaning gold; and the whole tradition of the orange, as it has come down to us, is through the medium of Moorish splendor and Spanish luxury. The proud Spaniard did not carry apples with him on his conquests, but he did take the orange and the lemon. The former especially cama fo grace the festive board of grandees; and ff any tlme oranges were lacking at his fiestas, the fastest dispatch riders were sent to far-away missions to bring back the coveted fruit. Although the commercial growth of oranges did not begin until the completion of the Southern Pgcific to New Orleans in 1881, and received further impetus when the Santa Fe aas built through in 1885, the first trees were taken to what I 8 now our Southwest by the early mission fathers. The Franciscan monks who emigrated from Lower California in 1769 brought various semi-tropical fruits with them:; and of twenty-one missions, it is said that all but three had gardens and orchards.—Albert W. Atwood, in the Saturday Evening Post. .
Love at First Hand Great Thing in Life First love comes before the age of knowledge. It is the only love entirely unemcumbered with ideas and preconceptions. How little it has to do with words, with talk! It knows no terms, It is the thing itself from which terms and institutions have grown up. First lovers get love at first band, instead of getting first the idea of romance into which to try to fit themselves and other people, Louise Townsend Nicoll writes, in the Century. They seldom talk. They get acquainted in other ways—by being near each other, by looking at each other, by softly, shyly touching hands. They do things together—play games, run races. As watchful as small animals, they learn minutely each about the other. But they do not talk, They glve each other things, always in fair exchange, and wear them out with carrying about. When they must know facts to supplement their findings, they ask—short, blunt questions. Opinion and discussion have little play. .
Made Millions Laugh
The real name of the famous circus clown, Dan Rice, was Daniel McLaren and he was nicknamed as a child for an old Irish clown. He began his professional career as an acrobat and clown with Seth B. Howe, circus owner, 1845.. He was a partner in Spaulding's circus until the outbreak of the Civil war. After the Clvil war he was financially unfortunate, but was engaged by Adam Forepaugh at a salary of $35,000 a year, afterward Increased to $l,OOO a week. He retired from the stage In 1882, He was exceedingly lavish with money for charity. On one occasion he gave President Lincoln $32,000 for the benefit of wounded soldiers and their dependents. He died in February, 1900.
Mythical Greek Hero
In Greek mythology Adonis was a beautiful young boy, beloved by Venus and Proserpine. They quarreled about his possession, but the dispute was settled by Jupiter, who decreed that Adonis should annually spend eight months with Venus in the upper world and four months with Proserpine in the lower world. Adonis was fatally wounded by a wild boar, during the chase, and was changed by Venus into an anemone. She yearly mourned him on the anniversary of his death. Shakespeare has commemorated the love of Venus for Adonis in a long descriptive poem entitled ‘“Venus and Adonis.”—Kansas City Times.
Skunks Prey on Bees
The biological survey says that skunks have the reputation of eating yellow jackets and bumblebees. It is generally supposed that the julcy larvae of these is most appreciated, but the adults are also eaten and probably the honey stored by bumblebees. The skunk approaches the yellow jackets’ nest cautiously and scratches on the outside of it until its occupants rush from the entrance to repel the intruder. The skunk shows much skill in capturing the insects and In dislodging them from his long halr, where many cling. He pays little attention to their stings. :
Earliest Egyptians
Further discoveries of a new prehistoric people, who came long before the later prehistoric Egyptians, have been made. This people, according to Sir Flinders Petrie, the director of the British School of Archeology in Egypt, may be the earliest inhabitants of the country with a regular civilization. They may be identified with the race which occupled' the deserts of Kgypt and Palestine in a less arid period. The Shawl The shawl first was Introduced into Burope at the time of Napoleon's return from Hgypt, where he was fascinated by the alluring garments worn so lavishly by the orlentals. It is said -that he bought for the HEmpress Jo- - sephine over four hundred of these 'shawls at one time, and that one of his caprices was that he should never see the same shawl upon her shoulders twice in succession, CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY Services in Weir Block. ‘ Sunday school 9:456 A.
