We realize the necessity of having our
paper published on time though our first
effort would indicate the reverse. However,
we are not wholly to blame in this case. To
BE ON TIME is a cardinal virtue demanded
of the individual by society and can easily be
applied to a school paper. Centralization of
responsibility is also a necessary factor for
tbe smooth working of social institutions.
Our understanding with our new publishers
will enable us to be ON TIME and will also
throw the blame for delay entirely upon us.
We feel that we can now answer satisfactorily
the usual query, "When will The Record be
out?", by stating positively, "It will be out
by the first of each month."
their positions simply to be figure heads of
their classes, but to ACT aud act promptly
and vigorously. Only one of the entire list
has handed in a single scratch since elected
in January. Several have either thought their
positions did not carry with them auy responsibility, or were not interested enough in
The Record to determine what their duties
are. In the first instance they are sadly mistaken. If their failure is through a lack of
interest, uthers should be elected to fill their
places.
The reason for having reporters elected in
each class was to make it possible for the
Josh Editor to gather up good, healthy jokes
that would be appreciated by all. "Any old
thing" isn't always a josh and sometimes
has not enough meaning back of it for even a
josh to stand on. All material should be
handed to the Josh Editor by the fifteenth of
each month and should be written in a perfectly legible manner and on one side of the
paper only. We hope we have made perfectly clear why, what, when and how.
The practice teachers due in the training
school during chapel exercises do not realize
what they are missing. The new features added to the exercises last September have proved a decided success. The entire student
body looks forward with pleasure to Monday,
Wednesday and Friday when members of
the Faculty have charge of the exercises. We
believe the steady improvement in character
of these morning features is due to a desire
for variety on the part of the Faculty. But
no matter what the reason for the effort on
the part of those having charge, the students
thoroughly enjoy aud appreciate the result.
On two occasions we have heard expressions
of pleasure beyond tbe ordinary; both on
mornings when music was the feature of the
program. Tbe first instance was after Miss
Lennon had made the piano "almost talk," as
one of the boys expressed it. The second
time was on March 13th, when we were indebted to Master Ernest Camper and Miss Eva
Perdue for some excellent music. For his
age, Master Ernest displays much talent,
handling his bow with the skill and precision
of a good violinist several years his senior.
We wish    to    remind    the   reporters cf the
several classes   that   they   were not elected to
