I
noticed something at the Centenial parade
last week. One of the first sights that
met my eyes was the Marine Color Guard.
They led the parade proudly, in perfect
time, bearing the flags respectfully. I
gazed at the Stars and Stripes and thought
how wonderful it was to be a part of a country
like America. |
Then
my eyes strayed to the people
around me. What I saw
made me indignant. I
wondered if they didn't
know enough to pay
respect to the flag, or whether
they merely took it for granted.
I
hope that more people will wake
up and realize that respect is
due to our flag when it appears.
It only takes a few seconds to
stand at attention. A small price
to pay for the priviledge of living
in this country.

Every
morning in every homeroom here at Glenridge,
a short ceremony or rite is performed.
A member of the class opens a book and
reads a few lines. The Class then standds
and recites a few paragraphs. The whole
thing takes a little less than 60 seconds.
This scene should be enacted reverently
and proudly. The Bible should be read
with feeling and understanding. The Lord's
Prayer should be prayed from the heart,
not recited like a spelling rule. The
pledge of Allegiance should be said with
deep pride and loyalty, with each person
standing at attention.
This
small ceremony should become a cherished
moment to each and every student at Glenridge.
It should add something to our day.

Our
Mystery's last name might lead you to
suppose this Glenridge teacher was busy
making clothes.
In
case y our brains refuse to rack, the
first name rather suggests-Track.
Sharp?
Yea, Man! And fond of checks, of studies
social, and making he-men out of wrecks.
A
sense of humor and plumb full of jive.
You still haven't guessed? Look in room
number five. |

Stern's Favorite Football Stories
is a book containing five stories relating
to football.
The
Kick Off is a wonderful story telling
how a couple saved a very important game.
First Quarter is a story of a strange
game played by a team of eleven ghosts.
It is a humorous and exciting tale. The
Third Quarter explains how a heroic
football player inspired a great song
for a nation. The Fourth Quarter
is perhaps the most interesting of the
stories. In it a football coach is traded
for a college dean. |

Westerns

popular films right now.

who returns home to find that his wife
has died. Stewart Granger plays the gun
slinger, and Rhonda Fleming is the friend
who reunites him with his son. |
