PARTS Of stories are given and the pupils
are instructed to complete the stories

the girls do not bring their stories to
Il sensational and exciting climax, but
they have them tlnged with romance
with Just enough excitement to make
them interesting and at the same time
allow everything to have a happy end
Ing. ON the other hand the boys have
to have some thrilling and Embarrassing
scenes In their stories with grand
climax at the end IN which nearly eve
