THE PERFECT SCHOOLRuth Dickey

There is need, I-am 'sure,' of a perfect school, one so arrang~athat it wi)lsuit everyone. Of course" many changes from the present burdensome systemmust be made in order to satisfy everyone.

. In'the following plan, I have tried to arrange for everything, but it must. be remembered that there are so many things in the modern methods that it

would be. easy to overlook a great deal which should be attended to. Allsuggestions will be appreciated, for I am, trying to make every thing suit every­one, which you know is a very easy task.· One of the evils of the present system is ~hat of requiring excuses for tardi­ness, absence, and unprepared lessons. This will be remedied in the new planso that every excuse offered will be accepted.

Everyone will have the seat he wishes. 'This will make it necessary to have agreat many back seats,espe,cially in study halls. For those who have nothingelse to do., permission will be granted to talk and thus disturb others,. but' asthis does not matter in the least, it is perfectly correct. For those who wish tostudy, quiet rooms will be provided. . . .

No assignments will be given to those who have no time to prepare lessons.The teachers will do the reciting as pupils' recitations generally show how muchthey do not know. Any. prep~ration will be counted for extra credit. Prepar-'ations.however, are not necessary as. everyone will pass with grades ofaileast A.. All reading of the latest, most exciting and therefore most interestingfiction will be counted for double credit. A library containing such readingmaterial will be provided as will also one for those who prefer quietness anddull books. Pupils will be permitted to go to the library whenever they wishto, as' they do not necessarily have to appear' in recitation rooms.

As everyone knows that there is no necessity for examinations, these.willbe entirely left out of the new plan. Those numerous preparation ,tests, whichalways come when more important things have interfered with any plans toprepare lessons, will be eliminated.· Elevators will be provided for those who can't climb stairs. Everyonewill be able to secure the locker wanted, the teacher, and best possible program.

.'1'he last win contain several study periods with perhaps two recitation hours.Besides these features there will be an hour for the'lunch, freedom of the halls.at any time, and special entertainments. ,.'· No one will be required to ~ake more than two points in a semester, yetwill be able to graduate at the usual time..

AU 'teachers will be perfectly satisfied as they will have no papers to markand will not have to stay to keep pupils, for no pupil will have to remainafter school is out for the day.· There will be many holidays as the overworked pupils need rest. Aterm will hist about six weeks with a good, long vacation. This, too, willsatisfy all teachers for, they will be paid at the same rate' as now. In fact,there are many, many things to be planned, for the comfort of everyone.However ,when the plans are completed, 'every detail will be perfect and will .satisfy everyone. Faculty and pupils will be in perfect accord as will be seenfrom the foregoing plans. At lease when everything is ready, something willhave been accomplished which has been looked forward to for ages. All pupilswill be perfectly happy as will the grateful parents of said pupils. .

Did you ever see a poor buggy,.

or a .poorplow,or a poor imple­

ment of any kind that the Moline

Plow Co. made? I didn't;

That's one of the reasons I took

the agency for their Stephens Six

automobile.

And there are a hundred other

.reasons that I'll he glad to show .

you if you'll call up and make an

appointment.

Seniors! We humbly bow to your superiority and majesty and alsobut one small favor. Please come back and look us' over next year. Youmight have your eyes opened.

SENIORS AND ~"HAT I KNOW ABOUT 'ElYI(By Hiranl Squash)

Now I don't go in much fer styles an sech, and it aint very often that Icriticize another feller; but the other day I bunlped into about the funniestpropersition that I ever hit. 1 was up to the High School Tn Omyha, Noobraski.I had heered so much about that school that I thought I better go up and seeif it was any better than our school here in Punkenville Center. You knowevery time I think about that visit I jes haw haw. You see, I found the placeall right; but after you get into that place your sure lost fer about a day ana half. Well I got in finally and I looked all around. I wanted to see the build­in' an' so I ast a feller that was standin' there if he'd show me around a bit.Well sir, he looked all right to me. He was a nice lookin' feller. He looked,right down right nice. 'But when I spoke to him, he jes steffened hisself upand spoke real stern-like an' says, "Why, nlY dear sir, I'm a SENIOR." GreatScott, t couldn't help it. How the Sam Hill did I -know whether he wasa human or not. He looked jes like any othersort of a feller. ¥lell, I didn'twant to appear ignorant, so I jes let on that I knew all about him an' I says,"Young ·feller, I know that~ I SENIOR when I come in". ~Telll he jesfairly blew hisself up right in the. halls. He walked by me as though I wasn'tthere at all. \Vell· I thought that I better find out somethin' about that thereSenior, so I ast a nice lookin' lady wh'at was standin' near by (she said hername was Miss Towne) what SENIOR meant. Well, she looked sort of funnyat me and I guessed I qetter wait 'till I go't back here at hoine an'. the'n I couldast someone that I knew what SENIOR meant. Well, I've been doin' somepurty therough work on, that there name an' I'm jest about as ignorant asI was in the first place. You see, the first thing I did was to look it up in Mr.

vVebster's dictionairy. He hemmed and hawed around in there and at lasthe admitted that·he.didn'tknow any more than I did. He seemed to have anidea that they was fellers that was a little bit better than any one'else, becausethey was a year older~ They is supposed. to be jes' leavin' the High School.Why, I wouldn't everlet them kind of fellersin the High School. Volhy themfellers are thought to be so all-fired bright that they' don't even give 'emexsaminations. Why, I wouldn't let 'em in the school without the most theroughexsamination. They don't ever speak to anyone but SENIORS, but exspeciallynot to Freshmen. (freshmen is jes the opposite of SENIORS.) I don't seewhat they,got to be so proud of. The minute that they get out of High School,what are they? Why they aint nothin' but FRESH1VIEN themselves, byHec. An' the funniest thing is that the teachers think that everything thathappens that is nice, jes happens because there is a SENIOR in on it. Whyin a game of Waste-Basket-Ball (that is a game that they play) if a Juniorthrows a basket, it only happened because a SENIOR throwed the ball tohim. Why, they even let the SENIORS run the Register. They even let theeditor say WE instead of 1. Now what do you know about that? Then they'sanother funny little thing. These here SENIORS hav.e the funniest ideeabout a joke that you ever saw. They take a holt of the Freshmen an' throw'em 'in the baskets an roll 'em down stairs. 1 don't see the joke, but them fellerswill jes stand there an' purty near laff there heads offen.there shoulders. Butwhen a Freshnmn put a banana peal on the stairs an a SENIOR purty nearcracked his head, the whole bunch was goin' to kill all the' rest of the schoolfer doin' it. An the funny part of it is that the rest of the school looks up to'em an' admires 'em. 'VeIl the onlyreason that they look up to 'em is becausethe SENIORS won't look down at them. But the facoolty knows that theyaint as bright as they think they is, because when they leave the High School,they has to give 'em a piece of paper that says they is sane an' has been edu­cated right up to G on a Bass Fiddle. The rest of the school gives 'em presentswhen they graduates because they is so glad that they is going to go and quitsneerin' at the rest of the school. But the funniest thing of. all is that whenall the SENIORS is gone, thefacoolty promotes the JUNIORS. But do youthink that the JUNIORS is content? .'Velll should say not. \Vhat do theydo? Why; the first thing that the igits do is to change their name's from JUN-

, IORS to SENIORS an' so the school can't get rid of 'em at all. Nowaintthat the insanest thing that you ever heered on?

, If you've. got the spring fever, cheer up. Only 15,747,331 seconds tovacation. 'Oh, hunl.

CLASS OF' 1918

We juniors are certainly doing things this year in all lines of schoolactivities, athletics, scholarship, debating, military work, and dramatic.s Toshow what we are doing in athletics, we have but to name a few of our stars.We had Clyde Smith and Paynter on the foot-ball team. Everyone knowswhat a winning teanl we had this year. and what splendid work was accomp­lishedby these two Juniors. Then, in basket-ball with the help of Clyde,Smith and Paynter, also Austin Smith and Logan, we won the inter~class

championship. This all 'helps to show what we have done in athletics. It isyet to be seen what we will do in track and base-ball, but from what weareable to determine, we may expect to lead in these two lines as in the, rest.

Then, to prove how we stand in scholarship we need only read over the'A' list. \\ie'find that several Juniors are carrying five subjects with honors,and a large number are adding glory to· this class by the regu!ar contributionsof four 'A's.'

In debating, we Tank high. The debating team has been dbing unusuallygood work this year and we certainly are glad to be able to say that this teamis made up of many Juniors with Sol Rosenblatt, a Junior, as captain.

,Our dass is very well represented in the cadet regiment. Although ourofficers, of course, are only non-commissioned officers now, they are doingsplendid work and will ably fill the commissioned offices next year.

Now, we come to dramatics, another line of school activities in which ourclass leads. The following famous actors in the O. H. S.Road-Show were.Juniors-Robert Buckingham, Winifred Travis, and Sol Rosenblatt. We arealso well represented in the' Glee Clubs. Two of the boys of the Glee Clubquartet are Juniors, and a number of Juniors are in the Girls Glee Club.

Since we are proving to b~ such a successful class this year, we h'ave noreason for doubting that .if we continue this splendid work next year, thisclass will be called the most remarkable class ever graduated.C. M. '18.

, One of our exchanges called us the Omaha Night School Register. Plainlya case of mistaken identity we assure thenl., '

SOPHOlVI0RES

In view of the fact that we must contend with you for at least anotheryear we wish to extend our greetings. In some respects you are mightly remark­able also.

Youth and, Old Age together wentAmong the woods, on pleasure bent ;Their 'arms heaped high with leaves of goldFrom lVlother Nature's treasure-hold.Then to the old ~an, sage and wise,Theyoung child lifted questioning eyes."0 grandsire, why do leaves turn redAnd fall to earth all dried and dead,Just when the frost comes every yearAnd makes earth brown and dry and seer?o grandsire, why don't men die too,And wake, in Spring to life anew?""The Good Lord has ordained; My son,Each must go when his work is done.In A-utumntime, 'the leaf's work ends,

TRACK

This is the dull time of the year inathletics. The football and basketball teams this year have been ofexceptional merit and we .are lookingforward expectantly to the comingtrack season. This, with no excep­tions, should be Omaha's banner trackyear. With a well balanced team leftover from last yeaI:, the reputation ofbeing peer of Nebraska and the Valleyin the past year, and the. staging ofthe big Missouri Valley meet here inMay we certainly have something tolook forward to. .

Our team this year is made un­questionably strong by the presenceof Morearty and Paynter, veteransfrom last year's champions, who haveestablished their records as trackathletes of extraordinary , prowess.The team is further strengthened bysuch men as Comp, Turner, Downs,lVlcConney, and Giller and we certain­ly expect to' hear from them in thenear future.

Track, as do all forms of athletics,needs our enthusiastic support. Notonly should we be prompted by ourschool loyalty to boost the team allwe can, but we ought also to' showMorearty that we appreciate his un­tiring efforts to create spirit in ourschool, in which offert we believe hehas succeeded. Anyway let's show him!

Our track captain, Turk Logan, wastaken from us by the call to the colors.We sure dO'missTurk:, but at the saInetime realize that the National Guardneeds him probably more than we do.

Class track captains were. electedin a special track meeting recently.The men chosen are as follows'

Seniors Charles lVlorearty.Juniors Floyd PoynterSophomores Robert DawnsFreshman. . .. . Arthur Logan

"V,.lould that sonleone the giftiegie us

To have others see us as we seeourselves."

Oh, I forgot. I must say somethingabout the Junior class. Well, it's agood class! Every good, good fellowin the school is a junior. Have you alittle junior in your horne?

, Nuff Cede

Mr. Masters, in a short speech,staten that the Regiment made afine showing at the patriotic meeting.

It was stated recently' that theJuniors would probably win the classchanlpionship. If we beat the Seniorsin track they will 'have to take upping-pong or checkers in self defense..

Hogue just threw a piece of paperout of the window, and then tried tocatch it with the window opener.That's as bad as killing flies with acan opener.

Harry Hobson missed school, lastweek; school was so peaceful all'daylong.

Do' you know what a EueyliptersTree is? vVell that's the home of anUphumpuff. Don't know what anUphumpuff is? Well that's an Aus­tralian bird that flies backward tokeep the dust out of its eyes.

Dorothy Balbach said she'd giveme',a box of candy if 1'd 'put her namein my column. rrhere you are. Lookat it, cause I may need some pro,of.(If anyone else wants your name inhere, just see me, and present yourproposition. (Don't crowd.)

School stopped on last Friday.You see, "Bab" ,Robinson got in ourauction in the South Hall and he gota good oft'er for his shoes and he sold,em. You know. when I said WarrenEge was strong. Well Bab's strongtoo. He's mighty "Lac a Rose."(So~e Roses is full 0' thorns.)

CURRENT THOUGHT

The coming of warmer weather andthe bursting forth of spring creates in

...most of us a desire to get out into theopen and deluge ourselves in all thebeautiful things of nature: This, ofcourse, reminds us of hikes, fishing,trips, days and nights spent under theblu~ roof~ but most of all of our daysin canip. Constantly our thoughtsare drifting first to the camps of'yesterday" arid .then to the comingcamp of tomorrow, which looms upbefore us as' the crowning of all held'hitherto. Vv·e make plans and buildair castles by the hundreds, of which'perhaps 0l11y a few will 'be carried out.But since experience is the bestteacher, we should see that our plansfor the future are improvements overthose of the past.

, reputation worthy of ,that which werepresent. Therefore it is of. greatimportance tha.t we stamp out the badelements or reform them and in generalstrengthen the character and backboneof the regiment to such a high degreethat it will be honored and welcomedeverywhere. ,

Especially under the present con­ditions of our country is it necessarythat the efficiency of every man in thereginlent be raised to a higher level.This cannot be done 'in a few days, butrequires hard and steady work. Ourtwo drills a week are only enough tokeep us in trim" while our camp notonly'keeps' us in' 'trim hut develops usin other '-lines and' betters" all of ourwork because our thoughts areconcentrated on nlilitary drills' andthe making of a soldier.

Up to the present time and undernormal conditions of, the' country weha,;e. been satisfied with a militarytraInIng camp of but five days, butnow when. ourco!1ntry has been drawninto war we, lnay hope, as loyal sup­porters of the United States, for anextended time of training.

Every four years fron1 now onsonle girl frorn Omaha High School isto have the opportunity of a collegecourse at Vassar free, provided thatRhe is properly prepared and thather work is oLespecial merit. '

This 'is made possible by Mrs.,Robert Updike of this city, daughterof Dr. Sherman of the University ofNebraska and a graduate of Vassar,who has the privilege of ,naming any­one she may choose as the recipientof the income of a fund given fora scholarship. " '. ,

The income provides for full payof board and tuition, five· hundreddollars per year during the ,collegecourse of four years and is available,for,the first time this eoming year..

The scholarship has been presentedby lVII'S. Updike to Esther Hansen ofthe present Senior class, whose qualifi­cations for the honor are exceptional.She is fully prepared in college require­ments having made herself eligiblebyt aking the classical course. Shehas also a number- of extra credits,forty-one altogether, none with agrade below A. The High School isvery fortunate to send to Vasser suchan able representative and lVliss Han­sen is to be congratulated that her re­markable school work, has been soadequately rewarded.

In the Omaha High School, thereexists a peculiar species ofhrightyoung man who delights in playingwhat he alone pleases to call a prac­tical joke. This joke consists of thedistribution about the halls of strangecontrivances, called fume balls whichupon being disturbed emit strangeprepotent odors of a questionablequality. The authors of the practiceextract, it seems, greatest merrimentfrom tire discomfort and annoyanceof their victims, .and labor under somedelusion concerning personal braveryand fearlessness of any hazards in con­nection with this defiance of authority.

Some charitable persons seek toexcuse these outbreaks as, the resultsor' unavoidable conditions in the mas­culine mind at the High School age,but we insist that, for the sake ofthe reputation of our school as well asour own self-respect and olfactorynerves, this' piece of conduct be, abol­ished.

As it would prove rather a laboriousprocess to examine all pockets aswell as throats at the entrances eachmorning, we suggest, as a first nlovein the reform, an individual oathtaken by each student to refrainfrom all such amusements. If thesearrangements should' still prove in­adequate, a student's private detec­tive agency might 'be organized tokeep constant vigil.

GI~LS' TENNIS TOURNAlVIENT

The Annual Girls' Tennis Tourna­ment has started. A large number

, entered this spring, and from presentindications, there will be' some snappymatches. Ruby Swenson, presentchampion, will challenge the winner ofthe tournament, and the winner ofthis match will be awarded the lovingcup.

GIRLS! PLEASE NOTICE-!

The annual Gym Club Exhibitionwill be given Friday, May 4, in theschool auditorium. Don't miss thisbig attraction. You will be sorry ifyou do. This show will be worth adollar but we are charging only tencents to pay for the costumes.

Have you seen the little class spirit?

Nearer and neared does the time ofcompet come and closer and closeris the standing of the companies. Itis a pretty hard thing to predict justwho will win 'in the flag this year butit has beeen said that if D companyand several others should lose, theirofficers will be broke for many weeksfollowing.. , At, the present time I com­pany, under the peerless leadersh!pof Frank Cambell, rests securely Infirst place and the Third Battalionled by William Boyer stands supreme.All of the companies. have a goodchance to win compet but the "bigfour" I, F, E, and C, seem to have anedge on all others.

The interest between the variouscompanies and the rivalry for winningcompet seems to be higher at thistime than at any other year preceding.'Strict attention is being paid to at- ,tendance, daily drill, and parade lines.

And like a faithful guard,Wards off pretentious claims that stain

And keep her beauty marred.

BASEBALLThe baseball team, under the leader­

ship of Hugh Carson, ha~ been out'practicing lately and since manyveterans are back, prospects are con­sidered exceptionally good. Mr. Spin­ning is coach this year and ·we there­fore predict a city and state champion­ship.

BACHELORS IN O. H. S.y ~s there are. You may not believe

it but it is true. We have with us aclub of fifteen fellows who honestlyand truly do not" believe in-wellyou know, they believe in looking atthe fairer sex and all that but in­well matrimony, not exactly. So insympathy for one another they havebeen drawn together and have formed

.a little club.

BUT-seriously. To those of youwho do not know. The Bachelors'Club of the O. H. S. is the HonorClub of the school. You· have heardof the honor clubs in colleges and inother high schools, bu,t. never beforein our own. In the early fall·someofthe leaders of the leading men of theSenior class got'together to form aclub that would be recognized byboth faculty and students ·as the clubin the school which would stand forthe best that the school has. Inorder ·to make 'it' so the membershipof this organization had to be limitedto the few who would make it reallycount and who would be able to putacross anything that they might becalled on to do. Accordingly therequirements were. made very large.To be eligible for· membership a manhad. to be· a leader· and one' that wasrecognized as such by his fellow stu­dents. It was decided to limit mem­bership to those that held the highesthonors in the Senior Class. In theRegiment a man must be a captain. orabove. Other honors that might becounted were presdient of the'SeniorClass; president of the Students, Asso­ciation, editor or. business manager ofthe Register, or an· "0" man in Ath­letics or deb~ting.·· The membershipwas limited to fifteen..

In the future watch the fellows who.are really getting things' ,done ,andwatch again and see if. someday theyare not wearing a little gold pin shapedlike an owl's head. And if you arenot yet a senior start to .work nowThat some-day it maybe said of you,"There goes' ·so-and-so.. ·He is aBachelor." And take it· from onewho knows you will notbesorry.
