The ground is being leveled off now, and from all appearances it looks as if the nets will be up and everything will be in readiness for si une big tournaments in the near future. This will give all the little girls who are gradually assuming unappreciated pounds, a chance to lose a few instead of gaining, and will give everyone a chance to put their muscles into play. The future looks good for tennis—lure's hoping we won't be disappointed.

college is judged by its paper by the spirit shown therein. How may a school have an ideal paper without having the help of evtrj student: In this respect, a school paper should be democratic everybody's paper. It is often said that the Staff has to do most of the editing. This is true in many instances. A school cannot hope to have an ideal paper unless it has the co-operation of every student. If it fails in this, the paper cannot possibly reflect the spirit of the school. If the paper is to be a true story of school lite, then everyone must do her bit— must support the staff, must make the stall- cause her own. must make the cause an ideal supreme. "It's not the individual Nor the school as a whole. Hut the everlasting team work, < )f every single soul." —(Adapted from Kudyard Kipling.)
