RESPECT FOR OTHER PEOPLES PROPERTY
When you see a sign or announce-
ment On a bulletin board, are you
Supposed to write all over it? Some
people have this idea, as you have
secn on the "lost and found" announce-
ments. It seems.as if some people
think that they have to either write
their name or something else on these
announcements. These cards were not
put up to give you a place to write,
but to find out what things havo been
lost or found.
This writing on other people's
property is also dene on desks, books
and magazines which do not belong to
us. Desks are often ruined this way.
Those desks do not belong to us, so
‘why should we ruin them? This is
also the case in library books and
magazines. You see some books all
marked up and some mavazines torn,
These books belong to the school and
are not for the students to write all
Besides it is selfish, in that
others can't use them. So let's try
to respect someone else's property as
we would like others to treat ours.
MILNE HIGH CAMPUS
We should all be proud of our
school. To be proud of our school we
mast have something to be proud of.
Rules have been made by the officials
of the school for the purpose of keep-
ing the school looking well. some of
these rules are in regard to the Cam-
pus. If everyone runs all over them,
it is only natural that the grass will
wither and give a bad appearance to
outsiders,

olume TIL , Number 2g
(Continued from last column)
I’m sure that we all want to keep
the school looking nice, but we just
don't think. If we would all just
stop right now and realize how mich
harm we can prevent by ourselves obey-
ing the rules and reminding others to
do so, we will point out our school
to others with pride later this spring.
Question Box; "Should the Junior High
School club period be longer?"
Ralph Norvell-Yes, because we do not
finish our work in a half an hour.
Jane Bulger-Yes, if they do not take
our lunch period. Ws could get a lot
more done in a longer period.
Erastus Davis-Yes, because we are always
tired and we need a little more time
to rest before going to our next class.
John Hawkins-Yes, because our clubs
would get more done.
Betty Ross- Yes, because you can't ac-
complish much in one period a week.
