STUDY HALLS
Are They Utilized!
For some students a study hall offers a chance
to catch up on work that should have been done the
night before. Others use their study halls for read
ing a library book or "chewing the fat" with their
neighbors. Still others use this time to catch up on
that much-needed sleep that was lost the night be
fore because Marilyn Monroe was appearing at the ""'
local Biiou. P
There are always a few rare cases in which an I r
industrious person can be found doing his next day's
assignments. Rare cases, indeed!
If a student is really "on the ball," he will real
ize that quite a lot can be accomplished if one ap
plies himself. The trouble today is that most individ
uals have not learned to budget their time to the
fullest advantage.
Do the important things first. Don't waste time
on unimportant matters that can be taken care of
outside school. Have the necessary equipment at
hand so that time won't be lost running to lockers.
Force yourself to settle down and get organized as
soon as the final bell rings. A lot of time can be
saved if you know exactly what you are supposed to
do and then do it. Ann Ireland

History Tells of
llalional Society
Local interest in student ac
complishments in scholarship is
s'.iown by the Ashland Kiwanis
Club which sponsors the Na
tional Honor Society of Ash
land High School.
In the early 1900's there was
a desire by many high school
principals to give recognition
to students ranking high in
scholarship. As a result, the
National Honor Society was
formed with headquarters at
Washington, D. C. Today there
are more than 6000 societies in
the United States. There are
others in foreign countries.
Planning of the National
Honor Society was so thorough
and precise that only a few
changes have been made in its
constitution over a period of
more than thirty-eight years.
The eligibility for membership
is based upon scholarship, ser
vice, leadership, and character.
The upper IS per cent of the
senior class may be included.
Ten per cent are admitted

may ing five per cent are accepted
