Advisor: Mr. Howard Dependable Service Do you offer dependable ser vice to your school—Can you be relied upon to carry out the work that you are assigned to do. In most cases the answer will be no, which does make fac ulty members, student body of ficers, or any person that has the authority to assign work dis gusted at times. When you are put on a committee and do noth ing about it until someone has to push you along to do it, will make a good example of unde pendable service. There are a lot of activities at West Linn and to make anyone of them successful each person has to do his part. For example, working on the school paper, the deadline has to be made; the legislature and cabinet commit tees have to look into their par ticular duties; the annual staff has to get its assignments on time; and the club members have to cooperate to put over their programs. Many more ac tivities and classes require the dependable service of all you I students and after all, we have student government installed in our school and to make it suc cessful we will have to do our part. Why not start now.

B. élections are over now and things are returning to nor mal (?) maybe. . . Yours truly is reminded of a story when speak ing returning to normal. . . Here it is: A recent visitor at our fair institution stated that noon hour at this grand campus was certainly a bedlam. Then he added, “By the way, do you know where the word ‘bedlam’ originated?” When yours truly confessed ignorance of its or igin he gave the explanation that there was in London dur ing the 16th century an insane asylum known as the Bedlam asylum. The inmates there were so noisy that admission used to be charged for persons to see the place. . . Draw your own conclusions. . . A certain well known student here was over heard accusing another well known person (he had a part in the s. b. play) of taking a cer tain young lady’s clothes. . .
