One more week of school, and then
comes our spring vacation. Let us
all try to avoid the spring fever''
until that time.
We have two newspaper cores
pondents ir the High school. The
new school house will receive due
comment when the time comes; which
we hope will be soon.
Marbles have become fad in the
High school, with the girls as we'll as

Paul Brewer was absent one day
last week on recount OF sickness.
1t is rumored that four of the
Physics class received 100 in the last
examination.
The desks in the High school room
are now shining since their recent
scrubbing, and the room would look
much better if all all the classes ex-
cept the Juniors-for all know that
| the Junior colors get plenty of air

will be an evolution in agriculture in
! the near future, since fve-sixths of
| the members of the class in Agricul-
| ture are ladies.

thick wall which separates the heart
into two cavities may become weak
ened and under heavy pressure break,
causing instant death.
Though the rapid return of the cold
weather has astonished many, we
trust that it will bring a few backslid-
ing students to their senses.
The Freshman Botany class tried
two interesting experiments in photo
synthesis and Transportation the past
week, which proved successful.
The Junior German class is reading

The English History debating class
are progressing finely but the map
must be hung up wrong or something,
since the students always go up to it
on the wrong side.
Many poets starve in garrets, but
how many editors SILVER by a High
School window?
The boys OF the High School seem
to be quite busy during the moons and
recesses, practising base ball, vault
ing, jumping and shot putting. Sure
ly all this work OF practising cannot
be in vain. We have high hopes of
gaining honors in the field and track
events this spring. Out of the large
number who are practising, enough
good players can surely be obtained
TO form good base ball and track
team With the advise and help of
Mr.. Bergen and by continual practis-

spring. We hope that with the new
