D. A. Mallory
Who Profited Most?

A certain man was traveling on foot in Japan, and came

to a mountain pass. It was late in the autumn, and snow be-
gan to fall as the man was climbing the steep slopes. The
trail was long, and the man was benumbed and freezing, nar-
rates Paul Shoichi Imamura, of Tokyo.

But after great difficulty he reached the top, and there

he found a stranger lying on the ground, unconscious and near
death from the bitter cold. Forgetting his own discomfort,
the man hurried to the suffering stranger and began to massage
his body and limbs vigorously, and with all his strength. Be-
fore long, the stranger showed signs of life, and after much
brisk exercising, was restored to full consciousness.

The amazing thing the man discovered was that by work-

ing hard to save the stranger's life, he himself had become
warm and strong. He eagerly lifted up the stranger and de-
scended the mountainside to comfort and safety.

Needless to say, the stranger became the man's life-

long friend. But which man of the two received the greater
blessing - - he who gave the help or he who received it?

Student Council

Student Government
A Student Council and a Student Commission were organized at 8. H. S. this yea r. The Student
Council is composed of the president, vice president, and secretary of all four classes. Three out-
standing boys and girls from each class make up the Student Commission. The aim of these two or-
ganizations is to improve the re lationships between the students. The Council acts on suggestions
presented to them, and the Commission serves to advise the Council.
The students, who make up these tw? organizations , are representatives of the student body. Al-
though the Student Council and Student Commission are new at 8. H. S. , they are going to work hard
to make this a better school for both students and teachers.
