would need most, and the grade of merchandise you would get to give you the most for your money. Each year the community invests about one hundred twenty-five dollars in each high school girl and boy. This together with the one hundred sixty days of time spent by each pupil amounts to several hun-

The main function of the school through the ages has been to create good citizens. To some peoples it has meant individuals well versed in Art, Music, and so-called cultural subjects; to some it has meant efficient soldiers but in America today it means a citizen able to take his place in the existing state of attain; be self-supporting and contribute to the further development of our modern civilization. Knowledge is the basis of good citizenship, but ideals and habits are also essential elements. If ideals are acquired without the habits that make them function, they are useless. Therefore, to get real value from your high school work, it is 'necessary to obtain a goodly supply lof knowledge and skills; develop ideals of proper conduct and at all times practice these ideals until they become habits in your daily life. To obtain all three of these 'essentials, it is necessary to enter whole heartedly into as many school activities as possible, especially the academic subjects in your course. Various statistial reports have estimated the average value of eacn day of high school work from ten to twenty dollars. These statistics are facts measured in dollars only, but the true average daily value must be measured, not only in dollars, but in citizenship and happy Jiving also. Adding these three elements of the value in your life of each day spent in high school, the amount becomes exceedingly high. Are you as a high school pupil, obtaining all the knowledge you can? Are you developing the

proper ideals of good citizenship, (Health, thrift, worthy home membership, a vocation, ethical character)? Are you practicing these ideals in your daily life, that they will become habits? Are you getting your money’s worth from high school? —Mr. R. Slabaugh Hand Operated On Last Friday evening, Mr. Gustafson had a bullet removed from his left hand. About a week ago, he injured his hand while target practicing, but because of its being so swollen, the doctor was unable to remove the bullet until later. The wound is progressing nicely now, but will have to carry his hand in a sling for several days. BE SURE AND GET YOUR CLASS PLAY TICKETS EARLY AT THORNBURG’S
