'Cock-Eyed' Optimists Live Cool, Calm, Candy-Coated Life

Ollie Regurgitates Ta blets, Combs; Noted Doc Makes Lifesaving Incision

I ' /

By Doris Shoop There was a lmost a - catastrophe here

Last week. Old Ollie looked a little g1·eener than usual. He was cramped something terrible, and every time he opened his trap everyth ing that had gone in came out.

After t he operation Ollie looked almost undernourished and empty. "Now," saiJ Dr . St uffemino, I've put bak olflly de necessary tings." T o my horror he replaced the school books, two tablets and th.e g·ood pencil all very ne1.tly in Ollie and closed him up.

Are y'ou a "cock-eyed optimist" with not a care in the world? Wh y is life a bowl of cherries for you? What's your secret? '

Take Inventory; Ditch Bad Habits

Can y'ou believe it~s semester time? It doesn't seem possible that the half year point is upon us. /

Let's take inventory. Have we put lessons first and done our capacity of work? If we are hpnest with ourselves we'H bow ouf heads in shame and admit we haven't always put f irst •things first.

Perk up kids! We've still one more semester to go to prove to ourselves and teachers that we can make the grade.

l1 * This I Believe *I By Miss Carol Kelley

Noi so long ago I heard a J.awyer, who was nearing 70, s1a1y, "'What is t he matter with 'this younger genera•tion'? T~ey certainly are terrible!" Since .this man was born and raised in Salem, I asked him whi1:t he used' to do as a boy. While he was r eminiscing he 'told of t he t imes he, as a teen-age boy, had ridden h is pony 1arou nd the corners of Salem on "two hoo·fs " so t o speak, and he even chuckled about t he many warnings he had received from the police about his reckless speed on h is po.ny.

I pounced on this story and asked him ' v;hat difference there was in his actions and our so-called "hot rqds" of today.

. , Upon talking it out he conceded th1a1t there was really no difference in the basic prin- , ciple. We decided tha't t he boys a nd girls of yesteryear would do as t he moderns if they had been living in our times.

And so, after a small introduction , this I believe : That the t een-age boy~ and girls 'today are fine, wonderful, ' wholesome people. They are basi03l Jy honest, truthful. and sensible. I have found them full of f un, and, yes, mischief, but kind and i·easonable. They need discipline, just as €"''TYJne of all ages needs discipline of some kind, and 1although they are quick to rebel, I oelieve they ,need and even want th is higher a ut hority shown.

Yes, I believe in our teen-age youths and thei r g r eat po1entialities, I like tihem thats why I love 'teaching them.

Don't Tempt Fate Or Trust to Luck B y Doris Shoop It started as an innocent ride, ·when she was seated by his side. At the party they'd h a d such fun, The night was ali:.re, anq they were young.

I

This ·was t he way they bad e g oodnig ht. This was the beginning of the end. 1 Uut on the highway at a treacherous curve The speeding car suddenly turned and

.sweryed.

()ver th e embankment in a f la sh It rolled and crumpled with a crash . That was all. How. insignificanlt ! And yet, that night, two lives were spent.

In the wreckage two bodies, cold ;nd numb,

Two poor kids out to have some :f\un. Four parents ' hearits still ache a nd grieve, They see and yet cannot believe.

The years will pass aond sorrows m end, But w ill the accidents ever end ? Two shadows walking hand in hand On a jour ney to another 11a.nd.

I

Tthe weary path t hey !tread alone, Far behind are friends and home. · All that's left are memories Of days and year s th1at used to be.

They are so young , but so forlorn, They feel no joy, they have no scorn. 'l1hough wounds are deep, and soa.rs are plain, They are not sensit ive Ito pain.

They only wish that they could warn Others of tihe speeding harm. But now's too late. All's said a nd done For two poor kids out having fun.

Let the rest of us poor frustrated and frenzied beings in on your secret for a haPPY and heaUhful life.

People rant and rave about such trivial things! Is life worth living when we get grey hairs and hives from the1 least little things that up­set our -nervous systems?

Nowadays the majority of the hu­man race rush about with depressed looks on their visages. Ulcers are prevalent, which proves there's an abundance of fussin' and fumin' !

Geritol isn't our answer, tut look­ing on t he bright side of life and possessing a ready smile will cure t he dread disease of "pessimistitis !"

Tension This is the age Of the half-read page And t he quick hash , And 1the mad dash , The bright night, With the nerves tight. The p la ne hop And, the brief stop. The lamp tan In a short span. The big shot In a good ·spot. And the brain s'train And the heart pain. And the cat naps Till t he spring snaps And the fun 's done.

By Virginia Brasie

The situation looked very dangerous so a't 3:35 I · ca.lled Dr. Stuffemino. At 3 :40 the doctor arrived carrying - you guessed it - a wastebasket! Now I knew the worst - s<;>mething had .to go·. There were a f ew minutes ·of s·ilence in com­memoration; then the oper,ation began.

Dr. Stuffemino opened Ollie up. Out came eight !tablets, five pencils, a book of postage stamps, a few by-gone Reader's Digests, notes galore, my witch's hia!t from Hi-Tri initiation, three sticks of Juicy Fruit · and one of Blackjack, 1a PT A announcement, a toothless comb and scores of o'ther no 'count items.

With . everything else stomped down in the ' wastebasket he gave these parting words' of asivice. " Don't giv such bigga doses. Dat ol b0y's gotta t ake it easy so maybe he be goot for a few more years."

T·his touched my hea~t , so· lately I've b een car eful not 'to kick .and slam Ollie or feed him quite so much. I must admit Ollie is in much better condition. With weekly check-ups he might survive.

If you haven't guessed who our o·ver­stuffed friend is it might be wise to investi~ and see if your locker is a victim of acute indigestion!

T he Italian Influence

For HealthY' and Well Balanced Diet because he is :f.amili~r wi-th it. By Jim Barcus

I The place that classical music · holds

in the ever yday life of everybody cannO't be ' t raced in the short space of t h is. article, for the · theses that have been written on the subject are many.

Perhaps tihe best way to begi? an in­telligent discussion wo.uld be to define what w e mean by dassical music. For our use it will be , sufficient to say classi­cal music 'is that ·which is steadfast, meani11gful and lasting. This will elimi­nate discussion of the various schools of music.

Many of our most popular pieces have been based upon themes from the masters, and yet the classics are popular long after the arrangements have been for-gotten. I

Tschaikowsky, Grieg a nd Cho1pin m el ­odies (whos~ copyrig hts have expired) have been m a de into modern s·ongs. For instance, some would recognize the h~unt­ing· melody f rom Chopin's "Rainbow Fant a sy" as " I'm Always Chasing Rain­bows ." At one time, it was very popul1ar; at the present iit is seldom heard. How­ever, Chopin's Fantasy appears many t imes a year on concert programs throughout t he country.

One of the greates t faults of t he human race is failure t o recognize its greats while they are still living .

,Today, on the whole, when » classical , music is mentioned we think of Bach and Brahms without r emembering the contem­porary composer s.

Outstanding composers of our time are Anderson, Gershwin and Dett to mention a f ew. To go back to the turn of tohe cen'tu ry Debussy and Ravel are worthy Jf mention as belong ing to t he modern school.

Yet Anderson doesn 't com e a s close to our present-day blud as does Debussy. Anderson could be classed in an earlier school known as the romanticists.

The top ten tunes really do h1lve a place and influence in our lives regardless of what is said .hY critics.

How big a place they hold is up to the individual. Definitely they shouJ.dn't be the only type of .music that is known.

The music popular with the average teen-1ager t oday is t he natural outcome of a period when t here is so much inde­cis ion. Understandably the contemporary music of our time is indecisive.

Enjoyment of music comes from repeti­tion and under standing of a m elody, just as practicall'y everybody enjoys Malaguena

A little 'time spent listening to a f ew good modern pieces will bring enjoyment of0 the classics, and perhiaps influence one to trace the growth of the , modern school from the romant icists and the latter from the earlier scJhools. "\
