Lexington and Ioue opened the

by a big game. The score at the first
Inning stood 10 to 0. Lexington
made a good shewing afterwards but
couldn't ofTsot handicap of run up
score in the first inning. lone won
by a score of 13 to 5.
All the material from the different
editors of the first high school an
nual was handed in the evening of
March 30. The editor and associate
editor are now busy preparing the
material for the printer. We are
planning on having the Lexonian
printed, bound and ready to be de
livered to those who want a copy by
May 1.
The plans are for a big fifty two
page annual. The dedication and
foreword twill be decided on Wednes
day night. The different classes
have contributed some unique and
new material. The short stories
which have been selected from the
whole high school are good.
The purchaser of a Lexonian will
spend many a pleasant evening read
ing of the L. H. S. and its activities
and educational work. Have you
purchased one? If not see Lowell
McMillan, Karl Ward or Luella Cum
mings right away if not sooner.

A breathless moment came last
Tuesday afternoon while we went
through the agony of a long speech
(or so it seemed to us) before Mr.
Dlckerson announced to us the win
ners in the short story contest. To
assure the annual staff of the best
short story attainable, we all wrote
a story. These, known only by num
ber, were handed over to a faculty
committee to make the choice. This
committee found the task not a sim
ple one, many stories clamoring for
first place, loosing out in many cases
because these were supposed to be
"finished jobs," and so allowing for
no further recasting. Now, if you
have lasted this far, 'we are ready to
announce the winners. The story
winning first place called "Buying
A Hat With the Aid of Three Bro
thers," was written by a Freshman,
Wilma Leach. Mary Thompson ran
her a close second as did Lowell
McMillan, being awarded second and
third places respectively. Others
gaining "honorable mention" were
Geo. Tucker, Dora Cutsforth and
A 5tJM! Party.
On Friday last about 60 fun-loving
l.ulies and girls of the younger set
wore invited to a women's stag par
ty, given by the girls of the Lexing
ton iKgh school at the opera house.
Kvery type of man was represented
from the Irish to Charlie Chaplin,
but soldiers and sailors were most
prominent. They enjoyed playing
leap frog and other manly games
after which delicious refreshments
were served. Those present were

The Most Welcome Tire
That Ever Came to Market
Men Who Appreciate Superlative Values Prefer The Brunswick
In every great Href factory, the
chief question is: "How much can
we give for the money?" And the
product dependspn ihei golicyj
adopted.
Every man who Has become ac
quainted with Brunswick Tires
knows that Brunswick standards
are again evident This famous con
cern noted as a leader in every
line it entered since 1845 has once
more proved that its policy is right
A perfect tire is simply a matter
cf knowledge and standards and
skill. No secrets nor patents pre
vent making an ideal tire.
But standards come first For iii
tire making there is vast room for
slumping, for subtle economies, for
hidden shortcomings. Makers with
out the highest standards don't
build high-grade tires.
The Brunswick organization of
tire makers includes a brilliant staff
of technical experts. Not a man
among them Has spent! less than
20 years in handling rubber.
Each is a master of his craft
And the new ideas they bring to
the attention of Brunswick direc
tors receive sincere consideration.
Every proved betterment is
adopted unanimously.
The Brunswick Tire is a combi
nation of acknowledged features
plus Brunswick standards of manu
facture. The result is a super-tire, the like
of which you have never known be
fore. The kind of a tire you will
gladly join in welcoming.
Yet Brunswicks cost no more
ihan like-type tires.
Try ONE Brunswick7. We prom
ise a surprise. And we feel certain
that you will want ALL Bruns
wicks. Then good tires win have a new
meaning to you.
