ANNOUNCEMENT
Our "ttlgil School Notes!' are to be
extended, t-lereaftcr this is to be our
"corner." Ilght now let us extend our
appreciation to the Journal.
This first issue is presented by a
committee appointed by the student
body; In fact It is the report of such
committee. Other than this announce-
mcnt however it is the work of stu-
dents. This week's "heading" will bc
replaced by a permanent one, and in
lhe space occupied by the names of the
committee will appear a permanent
staff.
It is not within the Jurisdiction of
bis committee to state the policy of
our "paper," but we feel that it will at
all times rclicct the better spirit of
our school. We hope it will be the
beginning of a new era, in our high
school. We hope it will bring our par-
ents and friends into a closer touch
wiih us. We hope it wtll call atteution
to the community that we are in their
nlidst. \\;Ve hol,e is colunlns will always
be referred to witi pride by all those
,VIIO St) gener(tlSiy nlahltain stir high
SCtlOOI.
The conllniltee would be derelict in
its duty if II did not call attention to
the studenls in this the lira( issue of a
blgil school "l)almr" ttla.L til(!y an(l they
alone eltn lnake it a success.
WKAT IS A ]ZElqD?
"A l'rlend Is st balancing pole," said
a wtdl known e.lhh!l., "it balancitlg lisle
,'lthotlt whh:'h It Is lmposslblc to walk
s0.fely on the tight-rope of life."
"A (|'lend is a Jewcl," said a pretty
girl, "timt shines brightest in tie dark-
YlCSS el' nlisfortune,"
"A frlcnd is a gold link," explatncd
the Jeweller, "in the. great chain of
life."
"He is a plaster far the cuts of mis-
fortune," said a well-known physician.
"A friend is like ivy," said the bot-
anist, "the greater the ruin, tlie closer
he clings."
Thus we find that a friend Is every-
that is necessary in ltfc, and everyone
hould do his share tn being a good
and true frleld. (KUAY.)

Better Homes in Prospect Ior Shelton.
The nice little home illustrated in
the plans above is a sample of sev-
eral that will be built in She]ton this
summer, and it is none too early to
begin thinking about it. Practically
the last habitable house in Shelton
has been sold and the few remaining
whe live in rented houses are won-
dering what next. To such we offer
the hint that they should not delay
!in picking out and buying some of
the vacant lots about town and start
plans for the permanent home.
True, lumber, labor and materials
are high and not easy to get, but the
condition does not promise to be any
easier as the year goes on. On the
other hand the earnings of the aver-
age worker are about keeping pace
with these increases, and when prices
in general begin to lower so will
i wages. Those who get busy early are
i likely to avoid some of ;he increases
that are yet to come with the greater
demand for materials and labor in
summer.
Property ha been the slowest to
go upward, but certainty lots in Shel-
ton and land in general will feel the
increasing demand and take an up-
ward trend. In fact, is already doin
so, and the longer the prospective
builder tarries the more he is likely
to regret it, and whether he builds
or not this year there will be profit
in the purchase of a lot or two righ
I now. Shelton will be busier this sea-
son than at any time in the past ter
years and its "sky-line" will look a
lot different by fall. A hint to the
wise should be sufficient.
