ain't a place that gold can buy, or get up in a minute; efore it's school, you've got to do a heap of strivin' in it. ithin its walls there's got to be some wisdom and some wit; nowledge can't all come from books; yo.ur friends mean much of it. ou've got to know 'em, trust 'em, 'till grajerly you'll find ou're all ajoinin' forces, with a willin' heart and mind, o make every aim and effort that will make a brighter light o a school that now is your school, the pale blue and the white.

"I SEE"

He said, "I See.'' And they said: "He's crazy; crucify him." He still said; "I see.'' And they said; "He's an extremist." And they tolerated him. And he continued to say: "I see.'' And they said, "He's eccentric.'' And they rather liked him, but smiled at him. And he stubbornly said again: "I see." And they said: "There's something is what he says." And they gave him half an ear. But he said as if he'd never said it before: "I see.'' And at last they were awake; and they gathered about him and built a temple in his name. An,d yet he only said, "'I see." And they wanted to do something for him. "What can we do to express to you our regret?" He only smiled. He to.uched them with the ends of his fingers and kissed them. What could they do for him? "Nothing more than you have done," he answered. And what was that? They wanted to know. "You see," he said, "That's reward enough; you see, you see.''-"The Prophet," by Horace Traube!.

ou've got to work, you've got to play, you've got to keep things movin', one to whom she can tell a secret. ou've got to sing, and just keep gay, and do a bit of lovin'; o.u've got to play the game up square and stand for all that's true; ou've got to do your part in bringin' fame to Old Peru. ou've got to master all your 'plaints, look forward to life's goal; he school is yours, you've built it with fragments of your soul. ou've got to love each shr.ub and tree, and prize each brick and stone; h, it takes a heap o' strivin', folks, to make a school your own!

I wonder why God sent you here Before I was quite Content.

Yo.u make me realize How empty Is my life. Seems that you, Merely by your presence, Open a door That I may gaze beyond Into possibilities Which before Meant nothing. to me And which now. I can't forget.

In your eyes I read Fulfillment Of all the desires Which, until now, I only dimly Recognized. Perhaps You did not know; Perhaps you did not mean To wake me thus. But, even so, should All my dreams be vain?

I'm happy still That I for one brief Moment

Lay , in your arms and, Resting there, Content within the Sunshine Of your smile, Lived all of life.

Bitzie made 4 yards. A forward pass was incomplete. Bitzie's dropkick just missed the upright. Cotner took the ball on her own 20-yard line.

Cotner then opened a passing attack, but it was generally in-effective. During the rest of the game Graf's men tried out new plays. The fact that Peru made thirteen first cowns to two for Cotner and that Peru gained 201 yards from scrimmage to Cotner's 63 yards does not tell how valiantly the Bulldogs fought.

On Wednesday, November 4, the Bobcats play Wayne, conquerors of Midland, in the last home game. Wayne has one of the state's strong teams; and the· Grafmen will have to work to keep the slate clean.

To date Peru's goal line has not been crossed by a conference team.

Prof. J. W Paul, instructor of manual arts, has resigned. Mr. Paul will leave Peru at the end of the semester, to take a position as assista nt s upervisor of teacher training, in the trade !!_nd industry department of the Illinoi s state v ocat ional education systern

Mr. P a •!.l is a very able man in the industrial arts work, and is worthy of the advanced position. He will be located in his hom e state among old friends. 1

From a po sition as c;;;,-.:ctor of v oca tional education at Superior, Wisconsin, h e came to Peru in 1919.

The true motive of industri a l arts work is often mistaken But as it is pre s ented by Mr P aiul , more for the trainin g of t he mind and body than for trade trainin g, his teaching is g reatly app reciated by those who work und e r him He has g i ve n hi s teacher t r a inin g courses to many students while at Peru. His personality has inspired many of the teachers whom he h as trained.

Mr. P a ul's successor has not been appointe yet.

The Everetts are especially sorry to lOse their first semester president, G. ivaughn Casler, and Mrs. Casler, who teach in Anselmo. ;. Since the Everett membresship is limited to seventy, there will be room only six new members the second semster. : According to statistics almost every member of the society has taken part in the programs so far this year. Only six have not yet taken part, but will be caled into duty the second sepiester. It is an Everett policy to give every member of the' society an opportunity to use and develop his talent. Attendance at programs has been unusually good.

The next Everett program will be given January 28. Tnis program will be p1ublished next week.

PEP MEETING IS HELD just why the convention was held ana IN FRIDAY'S ASSEMBLY the topics discussed.

Friday's assembly was given over to instilling some pep into the student body.

Earl Craig, one of the most able student speakers on the subject, "School Spirit," gave a short, snappy talk in which he said that the only way pep could be obtained was thru individualism, each individlllal being a pep organization of his or her owp to answer the call for school spirit. , "Tip" then had some yell for the victorious Bobcats who had just returned from their trip to York, trouncing them 38-18, and the program ended with the Color Song. CRYSTAL

The topic of discussion was centered on geography .and its relation to the social sciences, and whether geography should have a distinct placto or a parallel place with other sociai science cou:rses in ju:nior highs chools. A committee made up of school at the convention was appointed, which is to study the principles and objectives of a unified program. A meeting is to be lleld in February and the) will report then.

PERU ORATORS ARE. VICTORIO·us

' Win ffC!m Maryville, MissouriRep9A;t a "Haven of Hoe· ':·<;). pitality."

On March 24th the Peru debators went to Maryville, Missouri, and wo11 from the Missouri pedagogues on the child labor question. The last debate of the season ended with this victory for Peru. The decision was 111nanimo us. Peru had to accommodate itself to Missouri Conference practice, and was therfore represented by a twoman team, composed of Waldo Willhoft and Roy Chamberlain. The main speeches were twelve minutes, and each rebuttal, five minutes. The Pe,i. ru team upheld the negative side of · the. qouestion.

The debate was held at the chapel hour, at 10 o'clock in the morning, before the entire student body, numbering more than eight hundred. Dr. Fred Keller, chairman of the Intercollegiate Relations Committee at Maryville State Teachers college, act· • ed as chairmn of the debate. Floyd Stevenson of Peru was official timekee,!)er.

No fairer debate was ever staged than that at Maryville. The judges, all attorneys-at-law from Savannah, Missouri, were not informed as to what school upheld the affirmative or ''. negative, until after they had render- t ed their decision. No fairer audience i did the l'erou debaters sp.eak to than r that at Maryville. The applause for the visitors was as loud and long as r for the home team.

After the debate the delegation

·· from Peru was invited to a luncheon

After lunch- f eon President Larkin · escorted the ju,dges and debaters ·.through the "vari; ious new buildings on the Maryville coUege campus., l'he :r.erou representatives repbrt that Maryvile is a havr en. of hospitality' that. the treatment I• they received during· their stay there · was royal, given· in a spirit of l· go,pd sportsmanship.
