highest Inte~colleglate d,ebaUng hon­orary fraternity of the country, is the honor awarded to David Fellman ;25, a sophomore at the University of Ne­braska and a member of the univer­sity debate team. , He has taken· part In the three major del,>ates of the year.

While at Central David took part In school debates for three years. He was on the state championship teAm In 1925.

Call1ng a last meeting of the Epsi­lon (freshman) chapter of the Junior Honor Socie ty Tuesday afternoon, Paul Prentiss, president, cleared up all the business of the group before it should dissolve at the appointment ot the new chapter. P eople who .had not yet received their pins bought them at the meeting.

"Aw, can'tchu gimme 50 without my waiting around an hour tor It?" and "I just must sit at that table, or I won't have my history! " Such are the remarks made to the girl who registers students for the library.

Anyway they all have good reasons for wanting their favorite seat. "Gen" Foley seems to be the most popular first hour, or else she helps 'em a lot. Donald Reed, "Dick" Woodman, and John Prentiss speak unanimously for 50 or 54 and how can three people all have the same seat or sit In even two seats? Well, It just Isn't beIng done! So one of them hafl to take second place each day.

Kenneth Saunders blushed a beau­tiful red and wouldn't tell why he liked 50 or 54 fifth hour, but rumor has It that.Allce Fal tz 18 m~nitol" at tpat particular time.

Now ;Elerman Rosenblatt has a dif­ferent excuse. He likes to sit at J ean Whitney's table seventh hour be­cause, "You see I can talk to the monitor and not get an error."

Janie Lehnhoff seems to be the popular monitor fifth hour. At least John Sundberg and Whitney Kelley think so.

In the other division, which was a translation of an English poem, only one prize was given, as too few peo­ple entered the fi eld. Lillian Field '27 won this honor. The committee picking the winners was Mrs. Bernice .Engle, chairman, Miss Lola Oliver, and Miss Zora Shields.

. By Anne Parrish . Kate, the pro.tagonist of this novel,

starts out as a rather dully uninter­esting bride. It Is what life and the breaking of her Illusions make of her that captures a reader's sympathy, and causes him to love the common little heroine at the end of the book.

Anne Parrish, recounting the life of an artist-girl who marrtes and sinks to the level of mediocrity, car­ries her through a long chain of' lncl~ dents to the time when she soothes her own son, who is giving up his wife and baby girl.

Her writing is made successful both by an interesting style (she Is one of very few who handle well the psychological manner of exprellslon) and by the rather neglected expedi­ent of having something to say.

In the abstract the theme of "To­morrow Morning" is the revelation of a secret little tear that stabs 'now and then at the brain ' of every art­ist; the fear of his own lazineBB, of" waiting for an inspiration to clear, or failing to respond quickly enough to a creative mood until th~ chance

EDITORIAL THE STORY FOR THE WEEK

The feast is o'er. Now brimming wine is seen to shine in each lordly cup before each eager guest. Silence fills the crowded hall; then the noble host, the courteous Stanley, arises to pro­pose a toast to the beautiful and proud Lady Gundamere.

.At the word each gallant rose to his feet and shouted joy­ously. "Enough, enough," smilingly said the host. "That all the ladies might have their due, each knight in turn must play his part and name the lady of his heart." - .

One by one, each guest sprang up, named the loved one's name, and praised her beauty, grace, constancy; or fame. The most gallant, the most envied, the most admired knight, Sir Leon, the flower of chivalry, sprang to his feet. Countless eyes were fixed on him as he poetically began thus:

"I drink to one whose image never may depart, deep graven on this grateful heart until memory be dead; to one whose love for me shall last when lighter passions long have passed; so holy 'tis and true; to one whose love hath longer dwelt, more deeply fixed, more keenly felt, than any pledged by you."

Such a beautiful poem, but each guest upstarted at the last word, his hand upon his sword, with fury-flashing eye: Stanley asked the name of this most peerless dame, far surpassing all

FRESHMEN, READ THIS EDITORIAL This editorial, ' though written for the benefit of ·the fresh­

men," easily might become the concern of the upper grade stu­dents not 'familiar with the library.

Miss Zora Shields, the librarian, is urging all freshmen to be sure to register in the library before the end of this semester. Monitors in the library are for the special benefit of the under­graduates, but the seniors seem to make twice as many errors as the freshmen do. To avoid this situaton, register du-ring the first year, so that the seniors fOUl' years from now will be orderly and will set a good example for incoming students.

" Court Flourishes With Young Blood of Peonies

New, young blood In the old, aris­tocratic court? A most shocking pro­cedure, indeed; nevertheless, there in the court stands the young blood, Quietly but firmly, ready to grow up into flourishing, blooming peonies to show what young blood wlll do. Of course, the infants are rather frail and have to be hedged about with sticks to keep the young bloods ot the human race from knocking them down until they are old enough to be plainly visible.

The peonies are acting in a two­fold capacity. They are bringing something new and colorful to brighten up the mi~s of exam-laden students, and their sticks serve as a fence to protect the grass beyond. The flowers are the first indication that Central may have trees some day.

Teachers UI'ge Students to Think Up New Excuses If students a,re ever late, WON'T

they think up some new excuse? The teachers in chl rge of tbe absence and tardiness would probably appreciate it. Most people say th'iJ followi ng ov~r and over again for a whole year : "The clock stopped." "Had car trouble." "The whole family overs}ept." "Just missed the stret>t car." _ " The street car was overcrow'd­ed and the motorman wouldn 't stoP." or "Had to get a little brother (or sister) off t() school."

Of course, if one isn ' t original he'll say, "Well, I'm late because I'm late." Think up a -llew one on tht> way to school next time.

Why are freshmen urged to register in the library and charge books before the end of their first year in Central high school? One reason has been mentioned above: to save errors. Library material helps in school work. Sophomores are required to do a few library problems. These students will be saved much embarrassment if they know how to go about fi-nding material in the library.

THE JUNIOR HONOR SOC1ETY With the advent of spring, once more comes the election to

membership in the Junior Honor Society. This important annual election took place yesterday. The organization, founded four years ago by Principal J. G. Masters, is to the undergraduates what the National Honor Society is to the graduating seniors.

To be eligible for membership, the student must be carrying at least four full subjects with A and B grades. He must have shown himself ambitious, obedient, and enterprising both in and out of the classroom.

The committee of the faculty upon whom rests the responsi· bility of selecting the members of this organization has had a difficult duty. One-tenth of the entire class, which is the maxi­mum membership of each chapter, or nearly one-tenth, has been elected to membership each year up to the present time. The 'Organization is divided inijo three chapters: Gamma for the juniors, Delta for the sophomores, and Epsilon for the freshmen.

WHO KEEPS CENTRAL RESPECTABLE? Who digs the dandelions on the campus? Who keeps ink in

the study halls and has broken seats mended? Who directs an after school study room? Who helps the janitor, the faculty, and the student body to put things across?

Several years ago Mrs. Ada I. Atkinson and a group of stu­dents formed an organization called the Central Committee. The purpose of this club is service to the school.

One of the things Central Committee has done was the carry­ing on of a contest for a definition ot" "School Spirit." The fol­lowing was chosen because it represented the ideals of not only all true boosters but also 'the Central Committee:

"School Spirit is devotion to a school and its traditions; it -is a steady loyal force ruling the uncertain waves of victory or de- ' feat; it is the principle guiding him who seeks through study and co-operation to benefit his school." ...

Cleal\lIness Is next to B. V. D's.

"It takes a lot of courage and moral stamina to wear a woolen suit one day and a sleeveless silk dress the n ext," sighed a co-ed despond­ently.

As spring wears along, several stalwart seniors are wavering in their determination to stay "offa women."

At the Ad-Sell meeting last Monday evening, he showed three very interesting films about muskel­lunge fishing and big horn sheep hunting in Canada and duck hunting in the United States.

' 'I've traveled and hunted In Eng­land and Europe, but the . best hunt­ing and fishing and scenery of ali can be found right here on the North American continent," he emphati­cally declared.

As the sixth period opened, Leon Fout.s was sent in. Retiring the first two up, the Eagle captain looked pretty good. Then Walthers ad­vanced to the bat. Nonchalantly he poled a high one clear out to the boulevard and trotted around the bases while Grayson was searching for the pill. With seeming ease, Mosgrey, the next batter, repeated the feat, but Tomasek was thrown out, Nielsen to Solomon.

The Purple tallies came in the sixth. To the wQnderment of all, Nielsen and Tollander both smacked out singles, and Grayson's triple brought both in . Fouts in turn drove in Grayson, and the Central rally ended.

Coaches Put Javelin Throw into Discard At a meeting of the high school

coaches held last Monday at the city hall, it was decided that the javelin throw would be abolished in the com­ing city m eet. Because of the dan­ger thought to be inv,plved In this event, most of the coaches were In favor of discontinuing It.

Coach "Papa" Schmidt thinks it best .to ..Jeave the javelin throw on the list of field events so long as it Is still continued in the state meets.

Having been rather unsuccessful in the first round of the city baseball tournament, Coach "Yost" Knapple's diamondeers will have a chance today to redeem themselves in their second meeting of the season when they meet the Packers tor the second time, at Thirty-second and Dewey. The desire for revenge burns high within the Central men's breasts, as South already has one victory over the Eagles to her credit for this year. The Packers have not dropped a single encounter so far this season.
