MIGHT OTHERWISE ASCEND tADIO STABS QtnSBTS Tomorrow evening, Friday, March 14, the High School Band will preaent that fine concert which you cannot afford to miss. There are a great many reasons why you can't afford to miss this particular performance, and here are several of the more obvious ones. The band, under the direction of Paul R. Yanda, has chosen a more varied and delightful repertoire than ever before. This year, the band will he directed in two numbers by a guest conductor, the distinguished Glen Welty, of WI.& and other radio stations. During the inter in selection* will be played hy the hr**s quartet, and the saxophone Also there will be three anion played* To top the evening off. that famous ban joist Eddie IVabody will perform during the internmaion. He will not he, as incorrectly stated last week, accompanied by the bras* quartet, the saxophone quartet, and ihv** aoUdsts, but t>y a pianist, Mr*. Elmer R, Raum. Perftaps you have hoard Mr. TVabody on one of his many radio broadcasts, but if you hawnt, then this ia you? golden opportunity to both see and hear a really line musician. The last reason why you cant afford to miss this concert is the fact that the ticket which you now purehsse for it, will not only admit you to this performance, but also to tiie fine orchestra concert which will be presented on the evening of April 4. The program will begin at approximately 8:15 p.m. However, it may possibly begin a few minutes later in order to give all of you who wish to attend church services a chance to get to the high school auditorium before the curtains are opened. by EARL POMRENING, Publicity Manager.

Tke DEBUNKEH By John Harvey Purbay, PhJ). MOST FAMILY TREES" ARE URMMDOWHTT IS a big mistake to think we * represent our family tree when we start with ourselves on the branches, and lead back to some famous ancestor as the trunk. It should be just the opposite. We should fmt our own name on the trunk, and instead of going into the air, go down to the roots which break up into countless tiny rootlets far in the ground. These are our rea? ancestors, and the famous one to whom we point with pride is overshadowed by the thousands--yes millions -- of insignificant ancestors: some good, many bad; some tall, some short, some leaders, some criminals. They represent all sorts, but they explain us. The usual "family tree" explains nothing worth looking at (Public La«ser--WIfU atrfese.)
