OUR PATRIOTIC DUTY!
What with wars raging overseas and, worst of all, America's own
peaceful shores being threatened by the enemy, our country is in
need of your help. Defense stamps is your means 01
helping. By Investing your money in these stamps
RSJJEFENSE
Jzfj I vestment, but you are helping America to win a
Zjkl BUY I war ur country is us and when we give our money
V1 KiriTB I for defense, we are protecting ourselves not just
"giving it to the government.
Coach Gastineau's group of junior boys is cred
ited with having some $250 invested in stamps and
bonds. Other heme rooms are following suit; some
having "pools" in which the winner receives the
money for stamps. Your dime or quarter will help
just that much more and remember, you are doing it for America
and you! C. M.
CONGRATULATIONS, CENIE!
Unknown to many, not understood by more, is the contest annually
sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution. Recently
the senior class met and elected one of its sixty-six girls to represent
it in the D. A. R. contest.
This girt will receive a pin, fill out a questionnaire and hope to go
to Washington,-but most important of all, she knows that she is the
choice of her classmates. She has been chosen because of those quali
ties that she possesses which make her outstanding in her group.
She is judged on her dependability, service, leadership and patriotism.
This year Celene Morgan received the majority of the votes cast
by the seniors. When the seniors voted, they must have thought of
her dependability in her work. Celene edits the paper, helps in the
office, and still always haa time to do all her classwork. They must
have thought of her service, the service which has made her so popu
lar with both students and teachers. They must have thought of her
leadership. They must have remembered how the slim, dark-haired
girl scold .d reporters without offending, urged associate editors with
out commanding, and presided over her home room so expertly. They
must have thought of her patriotism. They must have recalled the
loyalty to Ashland high that helped make her decide to remain in
Ashland when her family moved away, and the loyalty which leads
her to spend much of her time in working toward improvements both
in her school and in her home. Each individual must have remembered
some one incident, some favor, some deed of this outstanding girl
which led thsm to choose her as their candidate for this state honor.
Yes. the girl chosen should well be proud. Congratulations. Celene
Morgan, an honor well earned. Congratulations, senior class, an honor
well bestowed. Peggy Whittle.
LET'S GET IT FINISHED!
It has been announced in the junior and senior home rooms that
the annual pictures are now being taken. Because of uncertain con
ditions which affect the engravers, the pictures are being taken earlier
than usual. A deadline of Feb. 9 has been set and all pictures should
be in by then. This gives the students plenty of time to get their
appointments and have the pictures taken, if the pictures are not in
by the time set the editorial staff will be obliged to send off the rest
of the photographs to the engravers regardless. So if you are planning
to have your picture in the annual, the sooner you have it taken the
better. L. R.
A Valentine to tell you
That as long as time endures
The dearest earner of
My heart
Is yours
And only
Yours!
I wish I may
I wish I might
Go to see
My girl tonight.
But father does
This picture mar.
For he won't let me
Have the car.

EXCHANGES
Notes From Here and There
Mr. Rickard's American His
tory and American Problem class
es have decided to have a contest
whereby each sees who can tell
the best joke. They have decided
that the study of the American
Observer became rather dull and
wanted to put some pep into it.

THAT'S NO LIE
He spied his neighbor coming
along the road with his fishing
tackle on his back.
"Catch anything .old boy?" he
eagerly asked.
"Yes, two."
"Good! What were they?"
"The 7:30 there and the 5:15
back," came the unhappy angler's
reply.

TIME OUT! . . , BOY TROUBLE:
You'd think, what witn so many
otner tnings to worry about, that
a gins social me wouid take
caie of itself for awhile. But no.
Least of all, I guess, in January,
jutyl as you re ail set for a montn
tui of leslivities, something goes
haywire with your date puius. me
right tellow is nowhere 10 be seen.
He s off in another direction, and
you don't seem to be able to say
anything or do anything about it.
Let's call an emergency meeting
of two. We can pool what we
know about getting along with
boys and maybe emerge witn some
line of strategy that will make it
clear sailing tor . . . well, for a
month or so anyhow.
In the first piace, what do boys
like in girls? No wonder you won
der! For years now you've been
hearing that boys want, above ev
erything else, a natural quality.
That goes for looks as well as
actions.
Just as you make up your mind
to abandon glamor for saddle
shoes and box and decide to have
some fun out of life again, you
turn around in time to see all the
sterling young men in school
simply bowled over by something
new in high heels, much make-up
and a fussy silk dress. You would
expect to see at least one or two
thumbs turned down, but what do
you see? The havoc that young
miss created in her one trek down
the hall could put many a profes
sional glamor girl to shame. And
she's not the only example you
can cite!
Here you are, left at the start
ing post, with the book of rules
in your hands. There are those
other girls, going full speed ahead
and paying no attention to the
rules at all.
What can you do about it?
Well, the answer may not seem
very satisfying but I'm quite sure
it's right: wait. The kind of fel
low you want for a friend isn't
going to be interested in mere
flash very seriously or very long.
Your shiny nose and bouncing en
thusiasm will be good., contrast.
He will be back.
But what do boys like in girls?
A fellow likes to be proud of his
girl. That doesn't necessarily
mean she has to be beautiful,
though I'll admit that gives you
a head start on the rest of us. It
means she has a clean, well-scrubbed
look about her. She bubbles
ever so little just enough to
make you suspect she gets a real
kick out of life. They want you to
be discriminating and conserva
tive with your affection. If you're
sincere about it, they'll respect
you the more for it.
"A boy likes a girl who is in
terested in a lot of things, who is
easy to talk to and fun to be
with," is the way a boy once
summed it up.
There's one last rule: Don't try
too hard to please. Over-eagerness
has ruined the beginning of more
than one beautiful friendship. A
little bit of independence and
some well-chosen compeittion ap
plied wisely can da a lot toward
improving relationships.
SOCE is offering a secretarial
science course for students who
are interested in commercial work.
The classes are being held at
Ashland high school from 4 p. m.
to 6 p. m. under the direction of
Mrs. White and Miss Fry.
Some AHS graduates taking
this work are Jack Merritt, Annes
Norris, Clara Ann Roberson, Gay
lord Vestal, Carol McCollum and
Nina Hess.
Those students who have left
us at mid-term are as follows:
Russell Hawk, Martin Herrin,
Donald Warren, Joe McCallister
and Gayle Carter. Others are
qualified to graduate but are con
tinuing until spring.
HELPFUL HINT
"Did you mail those two letters
I gave you, Norah?"
"Yes, I did, ma'm, but I noticed
you put the 2-cent stamp on the
foreign letter and the 5-cent
stamp on the city letter."
"Oh, my why didn't you
bring them back?"
"No need of that, ma'm I just
changed the addresses on the
envelopes."
ROUTINE PROCEDURE
Harry Well, I'll have to go
home now and explain to my wife.
Henry Explain about what?
Harry How do I know?
GARB
GOSSIP YiplIP
By BETTY WHITTLE
Flash! The latest fad at AHS
seems to be wearing one sock of
one color and the other of another.
While this hasn't yet taken the
entire school by storm, some of
the boys were overheard saying
that it is a good way to wear out
your old anklets and still stay in
style.
Skirts and sweaters, supple
mented by blouses, are still the
popular garb. Among the popular
sweater styles we find the loose,
slloppy pull-overs, and classical
fitted cardigans and slip-ons. V
necks have shown up more and
more in the pull-overs, with em
phasis on the V-f or-victory theme.
Slightly behind, but gaining fa
vor as spring approaches, are
dresses. These are mostly shirt
waist style sport dresses in bright
or dark colors. As spring ap
proaches we shall probably see
more and more of those light cot
ton prints and pinafores.
While tne clothes are popular
for school, a soft tailored dress of
wool or rayon is especially nice
for dates or evening wear. An
other becoming style is the rayon
crepe dress with drndle skirt and
Hawaiian print bodice.
A good match or mix, good for
either dates or school, is a wool
sport suit of either tweed, plaid or
plain-colored material. The de
sign may be with pleats, flares,
pockets or any way you want it.
These are always popular and es
pecially adaptable, being worn
either with blouses or sweaters.
HOME ROOMS SPONSOR
GIRLS' LEAGUE PROGRAM
Betty Dunn presided over the
first Girls' League meeting of '42
Monday, Jan. 19. Following the
short business meeting, the pro
gram, under the supervision of
Dode Frideger, began.
The sophomore and junior girls
were in charge of the entertain
ment. The program included Miss
Brasted's mountaineers under "the
direction of Arnita Black Miss
Loosley's chorus girls. Miss Fry's
barber shop singers and Miss
Woods's black boys, Harlalee Wil
son and Walter Graham, in a
short play.
The next Girls League program
will be conducted by the senior
girls under the direction of Miss
Hulst and Mrs. White.
THE AWFUL TRUTH
They were discussing a mutual
friend.
"Jackson told me something I
never knew before," said Briggs.
"He declares that his grandfather
used to tell him that he'd des
cended from one of the greatest
hcuites in England."
His companion smiled knowingly-
"Yes," he replied, "I did hear
the story about the old man fall
ing off a roof he was repairing
for Lord Somebody-or-other."

LO AND BEHOLD!
"I say, Joe, your girl looked
quite tempting in that sort of bib

night.''
What do you mean, biblical
gown ?"
"Oh. you know. Sort of lo and
behold!"

From the door to Miss Brasted s
office to the front door of the
stage, the theme song for girls
should be:
"GYM"
Gym doesn't ever bring me credit
hours,
Gym never leaves me time for nice
warm showers,
Don't know why I'm so crazy
about Gym.
Gym never seems to build my
muscles higher.
My team never never tells me I'm
their heart's desire.
Gone will be the years I'm wast
ing on Gym.
Someday I know my awful grades
will grieve me
And even if they do, you can be
lieve me.
I'll go on carrying the towel for
Gym!
