Show Do Cubs Lack School Spirit? To' have a good school, we must have enthusiastic enthusias-tic spirit. Is South a good school in this sense? First, let us find the meaning of "school spirit" It is, perhaps, the feeling that South is the best in everything. The belief that we have the best school play, because the student body is behind it the best footall teams, and a student ody that backs up and that we have capable, trustworthy officers, because the students take an interest in the elections and want to be represented by only the very best. We show that South has spirit by the things we do, and by the things people see when they visit the school. Outsiders form their opinions by the things they see us doing and the way we react to happenings. Sometimes just a few create the opinion that South isn't the school it could be. Therefore the opinion is pulled dowrn to a lower level. Everything the students do in relation with school shoulld be to build up the reputation. Before you act, think of the possibility that it might make or break South's reputation. What kind of a school would we have if each of us did everything for our own benefit, and we wr all working for personal gains ? School spirit is cooperation, good sportsmanship, humility, and the idea of doing all we can' for the "glory of South." The casting of the school play was successful because those participating were patient, diligent, gracious, and those left out were good scored three victories because they knew that the scored three victories because they knew that the students were behind them and they will win again if we stand by. The student- body officers were chosen because they were capable of leading as large a school as this, and because they can be depended on to do what is best for all. Yes, evidence of South's school spirit is on every hand. We've just begun showing people the true colors of all Cubs, and it's up to us to show everyone every-one what a swell school this is. If we have school spirit at every game we play, at club gatherings, or at any social functions, we'll make it a privilege to say, "I'M FROM SOUTH." |
