On October 26, 1825, a great'
event in the history of our coun

portion of our country. It mams
the date of the first boat trip down
the Erie Canal. The Erie Canal
was built tor the purpose of con
necting the East to what was then
the West.
Little do we realise the signifi
cance of such an event. The build-,
ing of the canal cost about 17,500,
000. but has paid tor itself many
times over. It provided a route ,
where people and manufactured .
goods could flow Into the west,
and raw materials could pour into)
the East. The canal helped New
York City develop into the great.,

try. We have heard songs, verses,
and stories about the Erie Canal

'Editorial Admonition'
By JOYCE HOWARD
The crutch parade added a new
member as of Monday. October
17. Arlen Jackson, one of the boy
twlrlers, fell down the stairway
leading from the band room to
the main hall and sprained his
foot. Some rowdy people enjoy
making life miserable for other
people through such uncxcusablc
rowdiness.
It always seems these are the
people who blame others for their
pranks. In this crowded high
school rowdiness Is a form of show
ing how adolescent high school
students can be. It doesn't take
any more time to be respectful:
In fact, in the long run. you won't
have to pick up so many books,
if you are courteous.
