Buffalo Hill school plays to the population in the schools in the sub-districts. Tournament to be held in our own floor, 12 p. m., Feb. 21.
Our new students are now joining largely on the brand of sportsmanship we display.
A few words on organization: The regular board is composed of two men from each ward. A meeting called on time and order and of good spirit.
1. Play for the kid and not for himself.
2. Keep cool under fire and good sportsman.
3. Play fair and always ready to lose.
The matters of talent, classes, and gym work creates them, but never loses interest with the referee or players.
If we are going, give up or let the men do their best. The policies in our town seem safe for awhile for men of wit.
If we are going out of the town, then forget about the rules. If we lose, feel a little bad. If we win, take a back seat for a short period of time, then forget about it.
WHAT IS GOOD?
"What is the real good?"
"Order," said the law court; "Knowledge,"
said the school; "Wealth," said the rich; "Power," said the palace; "Beauty," said the stage; "Pleasure," said the wine cup; "Freedom," said the prison; "Fame," said the speaker; "Valor," said the soldier; "Might," said the army; "Money," said the merchant; "Ease," said the lover.
Then within my bosom softly as I turned
I heard a voice, "Goodheart is the word."
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States and to the Republic for which it stands; one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

"CB" SAYS
This school seems to be going to the dogs lately. Just our seniors have been "averaged" our seniors need it, think you can take it easy this nine weeks. The other classes seem to be following their example: read lots of reading. Running across one of the old novels I thought I'd take a spin. I had intended to get in the proper book to while-away the time, but I didn't. I came across one of the old novels and finished it. Maybe it was lacking in interest.
I will have to do something about all this. I did See Cornelius, today morning before school. Maybe he will be back before long. Mr. Harry said that some of us aren't getting as much work. Instead of sluffing we better follow the ideas of the editors.
This paper's staff could be improved. We don't have a school paper unless we have more students to help. Mr. H. R. Brinson and the other clever people think we ought to have more school news.
If we don't have more people here to take an interest in school work, then I guess the school will go downhill. We hope there will be more interest shown but our correspondents are scarce. We have lost some people that the school needs. I hope the next nine weeks will bring more interest and more school spirit.
Mr. De Loach is trying to get the interest of the younger folks but I guess the older ones are to blame for our decline. We are all to blame, too. I do hope something can be done for the betterment of our school life.
If you have any suggestions let us know. We want to give you the kind of paper you like and not one you don't like. We hope to keep the school paper going if you will help us.
This issue contains the regular features and we hope you enjoy them. Don't forget to attend the "Junior-Senior" banquet and support your class. If you have any news send it to the office and we'll try to publish it.
POEM
I hear say,
February fourteenth
Is Cupid's day,
And then I hear I say;
I think it's so,
To give B. B. S. girls
Some good advice,
Know your chances
For gentle hearts.
For goodness sake
Don't forget;
St. Valentine's day!!!

Dear Joan,
I just read that note from your mother and if she doesn't like it well on our side get, etc.

P.S. Write some dear ol' boy if you have time and time to rent rent.
Wanted: Home conveniences boys by any Buffalo High girl or just sure boys in general.
I notice our red-headed faculty member was at the dance in his ordinary clothes — he was not a very gay dancer.
Study J. Senator — it lasts about. It looks like you and Cullivor have changed personality. I wonder if Versta would object to us bringing two dates to the Senior's Home.
We should be more careful.

(Names from art club mixed.)
We have another short and funny item to report — a very dignified young lady wore a very attractive frock to school the first day of the term. It was the very thing to do — a little old-fashioned, but very neat. She was quite proud of the dress and had the temerity to tell her friends that she had it made at a certain shop. They all asked where, and she replied, "Yes, I had it made at Merle's." But they all thought the dress was the makings of a certain famous designer and they looked surprised. Then she said, "Yes, Merle's!" and they did not believe her. The best of it is they thought it was made by her aunt and they all admired it.
BOWLING ALLEY STAFF
The bowling alley is full of music. The dances are much smaller. First in the evening Delia H. and Delores Holler "5th's" — where they give scores to the parties and give points for finesse. The girls all whisper, "Look!" They never knock at the door to a party.
Several of the fellows go to the club and come back with the girls. The girls all whisper, "Look!" They never knock at the door to a party.
The school kids start for home and the Juke box plays ""Good Night." The fellows all go home and stop to see their dates and get ready for the next dance. Several of them grind their teeth and sigh. The girls sigh and pat their hair. The fellows smoke and sit down and think of the next week's doings.

BUS QUITINYS
This column is supposed to be scandal-but that's what most of it is usually anyway—so I'll just write the same way, we've now embarked for Ionia this riding the bus two, donations; Ed. Whitmire sent Willis to be classified and sold in auto-rag? to be classified and done for the committee, who sealed her in a room with no talking, no sales, that's how to do with the orgy. A guy named Earl Jr. from Foley is F.d., (though none and his Brother H. connected—)
Josephine S—-ex pecting to come in—will come in every day.—
Willy P. to write of someone I mean to be—
He is in the army now—he's been in the "Tehrens"—Banak—
We get the whole thing: Helen M., and Elvord S. would like to tell dramatic affairs about their the bus every morning—"Bus-Tix": Sally M. has been doing very much—Billr right for himself in the cities lately, especially P.S.
Now what would Carroll F. be doing? going over to Darlene's to see her often lately—Notes to follow: Wile and Lallie—Rhoda in a hurry, Mrs. Anderson not being up till the other night after the basketball game—thanks H. Ann is just in for one of the known ones—
Stella and the others have lost their way—
Mrs. Gold maybe will come in soon—
The book called "B. D. 2" came out in the new season like Caryl D. and Burnett E. When Robert H. and Ardisca K. kept changing seats—
I suppose this column will again be something very enlightening about the bus—especially when it's with something as pretty as Lucille M. It's a rumorial (?) that has been keeping with the news with an attraction like the whole idea "Anna Marie"—we met a lot of nice people the other day we were all driving in town—No one is allowed to be more to the other—
If you are a Bus Rider Diana won't put it in the classifieds—
We have been hearing about the "Nobs" club the telephone calling to your in the store—We have to be in a hurry—
Mrs. C. and her mother are in the party and have been for two weeks—
We are told this week that the ringlets for the juniors are all in with they—vice versa—
Mrs. O. gave the whole thing—
Lewis M. is out from the house and very much in a hurry to do something—
There is suppose skipping and so on—I can't incorporate all the news—
"No one in Purcell"
CON'T
TUB DUBBING-(con't)
schooling parties will start up in so many different ways. some news for a change.
Oh, yes the courgous--well the girls making the tour could be anyone of us--don't know of anyone who hasn't you more or less idolized and just plain mad over.
Well it's for getting going until it comes time for your seat parts on the bus to school. it's really embarrassing and dandy. I did it just this other morning.
It's nice to take a different turn when our room gets boring. however St. Tropez visiting to Constance was in the dark. So the class did 'Clair de Lune'. If you want to watch it turn out it has gone so wild for a week's time. be sure to bring it these two days. Girls are thinking who buttoned their skirts wrong in chapel--you've started sighing, little did it occur to me but everyone piled up so I saw you. Oh the bell hit the stairs again! Scared Dorothy B.
We will send out the box.
