Gossip Hurts People
Gossip is unfounded talk about a person bitter
words spoken about someone's enemy or started as
innocent joking. With each new person told, some
thing more vicious is added to thetale.
Take, for example, the fact that someone said
Joe Blow was drinking cokes at his house. By the
time the story got past three mouths, it was that he
was drinking pure alcohol with a group of students,
and that they were rolling off the roof.
Even when it i3 discovered gossip is false, its too
late to undo the harm. After people find out it is un
true, they still hold suspicion in their minds. There
is little anyone can do or say to remove this suspicion.
People who gossip are usually jealous of those
they are discussing; so be careful what you say when
you are talking with others.
FLASH! Did you hear what Mr. Parks did last
Monday night after school? This will SHOCK you!
He went home.
Spare Time Can Be Useful
Do you feel restless, always searching around for
something to do in your spare time, and just unable
to find it? Maybe you need a hobby, or if you have
one, another one.
When a person has a hobby, he has something
to look forward to doing when he has spare moments.
If you have things to discuss with your friends
about your activities, you may get to know your
present acquaintances better and make new friends,
besides.
More than once the hobbies enjoyed by people
in their youth have become major steps in obtaining
a life work, both enjoyable and profitable.
But if you don't have a hobby now, talk with
people who appear to be quite happy with life and
find out their hobbies and interests. It will open a
way for you.
Well Easter's over for an
other year. How many people
broke a record and went to
church!
One day in a discussion class,
the teacher was trying to ex
plain something without much
success, and accused the class
of being a bunch of dumbbells
who wouldn't admit they didn't
know anything. "I'll prove it to
you," said he. He jumped up
and with a dramatic gesture
said, "If there are any dumb
bells in this room, stand up!"
A long pause followed, then
one lone senior stood up.
Teacher: "Do you really admit
you're a dumbbell?"
"Well, not exactly," said
Glen Ingle," but I hate to see
you standing all alone." (Well,
this might have happened!'

Be Friendly!
Be friendly! When you see a new student wan
dering around the halls, go up to him or her, intro
duce yourself, and show him around. Many a new
student in Ashland High School has found sincere
and long standing friendship and has ,also, made the
statement, "The kids around here are so friendly!"
This gives Ashland Hi a good reputation. Let's live
up to it.
And don't have just one friend; have many!
Speak to everyone you see don't be just a "stick in
the mud." You can't expect to have a lot of friends if
you, yourself, aren't friendly.
Always speak, wave, and have a pleasant ex
pression on your face. This will make you well known,
if nothing lse. Everyone immediately notices a friend
ly person, and the friendlier you are, the more
friends you'll have!

About this time my ears J
catch a loud noise, somewhat
like the utterances of an angry
girl. I dash around the corner,
trying to locate this commo

dust storm everyone steps on

the source of the dust. The
students arc cleaning out their
lockers after spring vacation!
After I return to the base

sleep until about noon, when I
am again awakened by loud
noises. This time I am almost
at the scene of the noise. Sev

But I am not going to stick
around to see what happens be

Say HI! to your fellow men,
Murder inlhe
Dungeon..
By JANICE CARTER
The story so far: Herb Lewis
was murdered by an unknown
person. Gene Allison given a
lethal dose of poison, and Mrs.
Wright taken into custody.
Later in the day the furnace exploded.
Conclusion: For the rest of
the week the police worked
tirelessly on the case. Eileen
Wright was freed because of
lack of evidence. M
A month passed, and no word L
came of the phantom. Students
went back to school, with Mr.
Lewis's absence as a fatal re
minder of what had happened.
Finally, one night the phan
tom appeared again!
Barbara Van Vleet was com
ing home from the wrestling
matches when a person stepped
out of the shadows and stood
before her. "You are too dan
gerous to live!" "Me?" said
Barbara with surprise, "Why,
you're joking. I bet you're
about the most dangerous dan
ger of all the dangerous men
that have caused danger for
others that ever lived!"
"You must die!" replied the
phantom.
"Die? Merciful heavens, I
can't die, why if I died I'd be
dead 'and it isn't fun to go
walking around dead. People
won't have anything to do with
you."
The conversation went on for
about a half hour. Then the
police came and shipped the
phantom safely to Salem.
Later, this note was found
after he committed suicide: "As
I sit in my padded cell, I must
die. Dead, is not living; there
fore she could not die, 'cause
if she died she would not live
dangerously."
The poor soul was out of his
mind,- and Ashland is sale,
thanks to courageous Barbara
Van Vieet! Safe?
