NEWS OF FULLERTON LADS, DADS ENJOY HI-Y CLUB BANQUET There was a lively meeting of the Fullerton Hi-Y club at the parlor of the First Christian church of Fullerton last evening, which was largely attended both by "lads and dads." It was father and son night and each responded with a vivacity that would make glad the heart of a sage. The first item on the program was a banquet prepared by the Fullerton high school girls, and the man who says those girls don't know how to provide a "feed"—well, he's never been to Fullerton, that's all. C. C. Chapman was toastmaster. The song, "Dads and Lads," was rendered and the invocation was pronounced by Rev. Howard Clark. The mottoes for the evening were, "What will it profit a community if it gains the whole world and loses its own boys?" and "The logical 'big brother' for any boy is that boy's own father," and "A noble character is a father's best gift to his son." Archie Raitt made a splendid talk on "Our Dads," saying that though a mother's love is all that it is said to be, yet it is not so much stronger after all than a father's love, and that a father's love fills a place in a boy's life that a mother's love can not fill. We are too prone to look upon our fathers merely as a source of revenue, and not as our dearest pal who has our interests closest to their hearts. "Let us quit looking at dad merely as a source of revenue, and get closer to him as a pal," he pleaded. "If we stay close to our dads we cannot go wrong." W. M. Irwin responded with a toast to "Our Boys," saying that the boys and girls of Fullerton have as high Christian ideals as any city in Sou-Calif. This was followed by a toast by Howard Noble, a young boy, to "Our Church." He declared that it is mainly to be God-fearing, and all should regard the church of the Almighty God with reverence and awe. ed it. The tag was taken off. Only a boy would have thought of that. "First, if I were a boy again," Rev. Francis declared, "I would be neat in my personal appearance. I would learn to do one useful thing so well that I'd be in demand. An educated man is one who knows a little about everything, and everything about one thing. I'd be very particular how I thot about the girls and women, as that is the supreme test of a gentleman. 'As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he,' Jesus said, and 'out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.' In other words, what you say is the heart come to the surface. I'd back myself up before a looking glass, and I'd say. 'Look here, old man, if you do that that is mean, the punishment is not that you may be found out, but that you ARE a mean man. If you tell a lie, the punishment is not that you may be found out, but that you ARE a liar. If you steal something, the punishment is not that you may be caught and jailed, but that you have to go to bed with the thief. This character you mold is the house you will have to live in for time and eternity. Now don't cheat yourself." "And I would become a world thinker, and read with perspective. Don't confine your think to Fullerton nor California nor to the United States, but take in the whole world. Read with perspective." The girls who served the banquet were given a rousing cheer. KIDS WANT PLAYGROUND The boys and girls of the city living south of the Santa Fe tracks are in quest of a play ground, more particularly a tennis court, and have asked the city trustees to come to their aid in the matter. They proffered their request in the form of a petition bearing the signature of 38 children, all ten years of age and over, which was presented to the city trustees. Inasmuch as all the school play grounds are on the north side and to some degree remote from the homes of these children, the trustees There's Never a Doubt, Never a Failure Do you ever stop to think you are judged by the food you serve.

Here are three distinguished suffragists pleading on behalf of the destitute children and women of Ireland. They are from left to right: Miss Maude Madison, Blanche Waters, and Ida Mae Waters, the latter of whom was formerly organizer and speaker of the Woman Suffrage Party of New York City and chairman of the outdoor meetings of the National Women's Party in Washington, D.C. They are telling their audience of the conditions throughout Ireland, where thousands of children are living on a cup of cocoa and a slice of bread a day. They are telling of women fleeing from burning houses in the dead of night with their families, seeking refuge where they may on country roads. There are 200,000 of these refugees in Ireland now. Will you help them? At the head of the campaign, which is for $10,240,000, is Captain John F. Lucey, who was Mr. Hoover’s first aide in the work of Belgian relief. His presence is a guarantee that this work, like that for Belgium, is purely humanitarian and non-political. Those to whom the sight of a suffering child is a blot on modern civilization should forward contributions for this work to John J. Pulleyn, treasurer of the American Committee for Relief in Ireland, at 1 West Thirty-fourth Street, New York City. H. S. ORCHESTRA GROWING The Fullerton high school orchestra is growing larger and better every week. Lately two new trombone players have been added. Charles Rapp and Stanley Berkey are the new players. Last Monday Nathan Morse appeared in the orchestra with probe now being made in county road affairs. R. S. Gregory reported today three sales as follows: Thomas Eadington, well known fruit buyer, lot on West Malvern. He expects to build at once Homer Clever, an oil man, now living at Huntington Beach. He will build a home here so that he can move to Ful Favorite Authors (Fullerton High School Pleiades) There is an old saying something like this, “Tell me who your favorite authors are and I'll tell you what kind of a person you are,” because the type of books people read is as indicative as anything else of their characteristics. An author, in writing a story or a poem, always puts a great deal of himself into it. He shows his pet hobbies, his theories about everything under the sun, and his general characteristics in the books he writes. And people are naturally drawn to authors, with characteristics like their own, just as people choose friends with characteristics like their own. Up to a few years ago, I never had read any of James Whitcomb Riley's poems. Then, by accident, I chanced upon one while I was browzing in the library. I don't remember the name of the poem, but the first stanza told how lazy and dreamy he felt in the early part of the summer. Immediately, I began to read the poem in earnest and soon felt that I had known Mr. Riley all my life and that we were having a chat about a common characteristic of our. In the poem he continued with a description of how he liked to lie beneath a tree gazing up at the fleecy blue sky, listening to the droning of the bees and the slugging of the birds, and just idly to dream, without a care in the world. When I finished the poem, I decided that I would have to become better acquainted with Mr. Riley. About a year later, while I was reading a book of Riley's poems, I noticed that he had dedicated it to Booth Tarkington. Now I'm one of those queer individuals who read the introduction preface and dedication H. S. ORCHESTRA GROWING The Fullerton high school orchestra is growing larger and better every week. Lately two new trombone players have been added. Charles Rapp and Stanley Berkey are the new players. Last Monday Nora Morse appeared in the orchestra with a real oboe—an exceptionally beautiful one which he recently purchased from his teacher, Mr. Thilzoni, who plays in the Orange County Symphony Orchestra. YELL WRITERS' CONTEST The yell writers' contest of the Fullerton Junior College stays open until next Thursday, May 6, and all contestants have that time in which to write up a real peppy yell. The school has a fine song, but must have a yell to go with it. One cannot sing all the time no matter how musical may be. A yell is absolutely necessary. HERE'S COURAGE FOR YOU Here is courage. Mrs. Youngs of West Wylshire-ave, Fullerton, was attacked by a gopher, something she had never seen before, while working in her garden. She neither fainted nor called for help, but took a stick and beat it to death. OFFERS $5 FOR BLDG.

Let's have a duel," Jack suggested. "Aw no one of us might get kill." About a year later, while I was reading a book of Riley's poems, I noticed that he had dedicated it to Booth Tarkington. Now I'm one of those queer individuals who read the introduction, preface, and dedication of a book. When I read this dedication, I immediately thought, "So he likes Tarkington, too." Then I realized that Riley was drawn to Tarkington for the same reason that I was drawn to both of them: they both like portray people as they really are, and both enjoy watching the frailties and eccentricities of human nature. I know a girl in my junior College who is an ardent Socialist, and because she finds that the ideas of John Spargo correspond very closely with her's, she will read any book that is written by Spargo whether it deals with her favorite subject or not because she knows that in each she will find some of the Spargo personality. One day she was expounding to me her theories, and because, in general I agreed with her and because I had read some of Spargo's writings myself, she got all "het up" and exclaimed, "Wouldn't you just love to meet Spargo and shake his hand? Gee, I think that would be great!" That is just the way I feel about Tarkington; I would consider it the greatest pleasure possible to spend a day in the company of a man who understands people so thoroughly, and particularly boys and girls. A man who is able to grow to maturity without forgetting the strange psychology of children is a rare specimen indeed. Irvin S. Cobb is another of my obsessions. I can imagine the keen pleasure that this old boy would find in watching the people in a park or frequenting the out of the way places where old men gather to play checkers and to argue. I know he would enjoy this because of the fine old characters that we find in his stories. To depart from my own literary tastes for a change, I know two boys as different as they can be, who like the same authors. They both like to read the stories of pulsing outdoor life by B. M. Bower, Zane Grey, ``` Miss Hona Horwits of Los Angeles is visiting with her sister, Mrs. J. H. Gilz of Fullerton.
