Are You a Scribbler?
Halt! Don't write on that desk! Ask your teach
er or neighbor for some paper if you must, but don't,
whatever you do, write on the desks !
You've seen this fellow before; maybe he isn't
the fellow that sits next to you, but he's around. This
fellow, whom we'll call Scribbler, is the one who al
ways carves his name in desks, writes his and others'
names on desk tops, and puts his wad of gum under
the chair.
Scribbler has no feelings for the rights of
others, no thought of the person who might get
blamed for his "piece of art," or any thought of what
his gum might do to some girl's skirt.
Scribbler's antics all start out innocently enough
with a lightly penciled "Scribbler & Mary Jane,"
"John is a dope," or "Spastic" written on top of a
spotless new desk. Day after day as time hangs
heavy, Scribbler sits, carving the words deeper and
deeper into the desk top. Then the day comes when
it is no longer possible to write a neat paper on the
desk and all eyes turn toward the name "Scribbler."
Of course, they might have known because who else
would do such a thing!
You aren't a "Scribbler" are you? If you are,
please remember that "Fools' names and fools' faces
always appear in public places.

FROM YOUR PRINCIPAL
This is the first time that I
have had the privilege of writ
ing in the Rogue News. There
are many things I would like
to say to the students of Ash
land High but space does not
permit me to do so this time.
After having observed the stu
dents of AHS for a period of
five weeks I have come to the
conclusion that you are a very
fine group. I find that you are
friendly and cheerful and in
most cases . very polite and
courteous. I have noted that
you greet each other with a
friendly hello when meeting in
the morning.
I would like very much to
know each of you personally,
and I have become acqauinted
with several of you, however,
it takes quite some time to
know each of six hundred
thirty-two students, but I will
know you much sooner than
you think.
Since this is the first writing
I would like to start off on a
note of scholarship. We must
an realize, lacuuy ana stu
dents alike, that we are here
for one primary purpose; that
is to teach and to learn. You
students are here to learn the
things that will be extremely
necessary as tools to earn a liv
ing in the coming years. Those
years will be upon you much
Sooner than you think. The
teachers are here to guide and
teach you. If you waste your
time while in school, you will
surely suffer for it in the fu
ture. So I ask you very sincere
ly to get an you can out of
high school; there is much here
for you to learn and if you do
not learn it you can blame only
yourself.
I advise all students not to
work for grades, just for the
sake of grades. Study for your
own good and learn all things
well, because these things you
will remember, and the grades
will be coming without
thought of making grades for
the sake of grades alone. Also,
I advise students to work for
scholarships. You do not have
to be an outstanding student
with top grades to get scholar
ships to college. If you have
average or above grades with
a good citizenship record you
can qualify for a number of
scholarships. If you want to
prepare yourself for a very
good scholarship you should
take all the subjects you can in
science, math, English, and
history, and then take the
competitive examinations. The
scholarship awards based on
competitive examinations will
range from $500 to $5000.
Don't wait until you are a sen
ior to start thinking of a schol
arship, start as a freshman.
Science, mathematics, Eng
lish and history are basic sub
jects which are very necessary,
but should not overlook the
other subjects such as music
and the vocational subjects.
These are necessary in heping
you to build a better and more
enjoyable life.
