Democracy was unheard of In the days of Columbus. There fore thc young explorer never dreamed that one day there would rise upon his Island, after much bloodshed and pain, a gov ernment controlled by the people. We did not .build our ideal in a dny or week. It took many years of trials and mistakes before wc learned thc right lesson. Never theless, it was worth every struggle, for we now maintain the greatest democratic government in I Ills feverish world We do not know what it means to lie de prived of out freedom of speech The inside of a concentration camp is as foreign to u» as freedom of the press is to a German. We come and go as we pli-axe, doing as we want to. These are but a few of the things for which we must Jie thankful. Now, when these pi ivileges nre being menaced by a monster whose principles are tho exact oppoRitcs of our own, we are beginning to realize the value and countless blessings of our land, with Its democratic form of ruling Dally it grovvH more dear to us, and %vo are determined to protect nnd pre serve it, at any cost.

After all had arrived in cars driven by Thelma Lupoid, Rev. Haight and Mr Kruger, the group proceeded to follow thc nature trail outlined by last year’s biology c I o s b . Each, member was to find some plnnt or animal with which she was not familiar. Tho varjous discoveries wero then to be brought bnck to school and identified in the lab by the students themselves. To enliven the trip n bit, Mr Kruger brought his camera along On various occasions he \shot” members of the class Because this trip proved botn interesting and beneficial, many more arc to be anticipated.

As for the school, what I have seen of it, it looks vei^y-good. The shop here, is very well-equipped for a community of this size. Do you think girls should take ■shop ’ Most emphatically, yes Thoir work is far superior to that of thc boys. We thank you, Mr. Gorman, fo- your time and patience in giving us this information. 1 --------- -o ----------- STUDENT COUNCIL CONSIDERS PLANS At last Wednesday’s meeting there was again a discussion of chapel programs. We reviewed the clubs which might put on these chapel programs and obtained quite a list. Among these clubs are glee club, library, orchestra, band, chemistry, gym nnd dram atics. Wc hope Mr. Thayer will act as soloist on one of these programs. There was talk • also of “Ex change Programs,” which have proved so popular during the last two years. Wc are now setting the dates for such progrq..m% with Williamson, Marlon, Macedon and Newark. They will, of course, be after the mid-year. Another feature on the school cajendar we hope to repeat this •year is “ School Night” Many of you parents perhaps remember last year’s program on' Novem ber 11. It met with such suc cess we wish, to have another this year. ----------- o ------ — SENIORS GIVE FAIR WARNING 1 Lower Classmen Not To Use Mid dle Stairs Although it hasn’t . been very apparent in tho last few years, there is a special privilege grant ed to thc juniors and seniors in regard to the center sta:iv\iy.

S.'\' FOOTBALL ON MAP Small Group Pile Up Large Score Palmyra -High opened the 1941 football campaigh .Friday, Sep tember 27, at the Palmyra Fair. Although this year’s squad is small, the spirit and ability o f the 14 boys, who have been prac ticing diligently for three weeks, is beyond reproach. Playing heads up ball all through the game, the boys rolled up the overwhelming score of 62- 6 agarnst the hapless Phelps H. R. aggregation. Both the first and second teams saw plenty of action in an attempt to give <jach stiuad member a chance to prove his worth. The only sad note of an otherwise perfect day was the dislocation suffered by Jack Bareham, who was easily the outstanding player on thc field. We’ll be anxiously awaiting Jack’s return to> uniform. Palmyra Lineup Ends — Wilbur, Blankenberg, Dennis, Eveland. Centers — Bruen, Fle”ming. Backs— Cullen, Bareham, Cook, Joyce, Moore, Crowley. Congratulations, boys, on your fine game. ----------- o ---------- PHYSICAL EDUCATION DE PARTMENT SETS UP VARIED PROGRAM During the month of October, students of Junior and Senior High School are going to ue pre sented with greater opportunity for intramural recreation than has previously been afforded them. 'Before basketball practice again takes the gym, Mr. Hill has out lined plans for a wide intramur al program. Monday- and Wed nesday will be set aside for the boys and Tuesday and J-hursday reserved for the girls, while ac tivities will continue until ap proximately 5.30. Touch football contests have already been scheduled with high school classes competing. Tl.e ping pong tournament has been started and a badminton club is also in the process of organiza tion Elementary rules will be' taught this club and doubles teams may later bo formed. Arch ery, having met wu.. some inter est by both boys and girls, pre sents the possibility of schedul ing contests with other schools. With such a variety of activ ities as is presented to-‘the school this - y e ir, there should he no'one who, .cannot find an interest to his liking* - t . \ -- ------- --------- - CHOICE BITS ,'l ! 1 • ' Since when has Shirley Lyon taken over the 1 job'of guard duty? We hfiar that the army regiment used her services along wjth “Jer ry\ , from Yonder?, as guards over the equipment last Thursday night. The song title “High on a Win dy Hill” is of what_ great sig nificance to Helen O'Brien? We hear “blind dates” are quite oxciting. Give us the lowdown. Feme! §ince a certain young lady mov ed from jPahHyra to- Highland Avenue, Ka?l Lebrecht wanders around oblivious of the remaining members of the fairer sex. How about giving the others a -tumble, Karl? Speaking of song titles, Jean Brokaw has taken a sudden inter est in the song “Jim”. Gallantry is still in style— Roger Hackett holds Bea Welch’s coat for her every noon. Romance in the making—Bar bara Poyzer and Willard Crider were seen at the movies and the great Palmyra Fair. —■ ------- 0 -= ------- — ART CLUB APPLIES KNOWLEDGE With a membership of twenty- five, the Art Club has started a worthy project; its plans are form ulating to decorate the school lunch room. The members are going to paint the entire room and design the border. A mural iB planned— p&rhaps two; one of in terest to the younger children and one for the older group. To add to this effect, a stained-glass window of a Walt Disney character is in cluded in the plans. The A rt room isn’t to be neglected; it is to have its share of redecoration. A new border of primitive figures design has been suggested. The subject of the stained-glass window has not been decided, but a rose-window effect ia planned for the door. The cup board will have a new front de signed by some genius of the class. It sounds like a large undertak ing, but I am confident that, with Miss Mesmer’s imaginative mind heavens, and the general ambition of the bone of club, it will be accomplished. The complete project will be a great addition to the general beauty of our school. $ IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY HELD After the singing of “America, the Beautiful,” the first assembly of the month was well underway. At the conclusion of the song, Mr. Deci announced that everyone, who wanted to, could listen to the World series Gth, 7th and 8 th periods, providing they had study periods then and had their assign ments done for the day. He also warned all the children who are overrunning the parsonage pro perty north of the school, since- the .parsonage is now occupied. - Following this Mr! DecT con-, gratulated the football team on Hheif'^in ■over- Phelps.; The cheei. leaders led’ the students 'through another«rousing cheer that shows the spirit of -a fighting team- r A t the conclusion o f 'this Bob Lowe ,took over and on” behalf of the senior class presented .Soc Bovrnas ■with s.ome rolls of film, in appreciation of his services in the senior booth at the fair- Now you Can get some more of those swell pictures that you always take, Soc. When this was completed, Mr. Deci asked everyone to rise -who wanted'boh Lowe for Student As- sociatiotri president. There had been only petition for president and that was for Bob, so the vote was unanimous. The assembly was closed with Mr. Deci’s choice of a song, “ Annie Laurie,” which everyone joined in singing, althdugh it had been sel dom sung in assembly. « ---------- o JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT WRITES ON AIR WARFARE War in this age of machines is a far cry from that of yesteryear. In former times, it was a general practice to pop away at each other from rank smelling trenches. At the end of the last war, the art of bombing had just been mastered. This war is not being fought on land, nor at sea. Screeching, div ing, air monsters,'the new weapons of destruction, are now be-humb- ling the human rade. Speed! Speed! This is the cry of the air powers. Bullet-shaped sharks of the air, patieaitly wait to rip great pieces from the earth. Prodigious bombers wing their deadly way to prey, as do the vultures of the wastes, upon “ dead meat” nations, who cannot protect themselves from the smashing on slaught. Roaring, winged spectres, wave their invisible arms, and thc red lacqyer of life is spilled to tho earth.- America too, has her air force. Through this weapon we will sur vive.
