GIVEN
AN ACID BATH
High School Seniors Take
Sweet Revenge Upon
SOphOmOreS

And still there are things doing
at the High school.
The sophomore class are not con-
tent with their series of victories over
the seniors, and have worn the smile
that won't come off, that it has be-
come a bugbear to the seniors. The
seniors have got into their fighting
clothes and yesterday afternoon turn
ed the tables on the sophs.
1t will be remembered that the
sophs thought they had accomplished
the victory of victories a few evenings
ago when they spaded up the High
lawn in places and planted seeds of
blue grass and daisies, hoping that no
one would be any the wiser until they
saw the class figures, '09 grown up,
formed of blue grass and variagated
daisies.
The, seniors found where the seeds
had been planted They have put
quietus on the growing powers of the
seeds and have arranged matters so
that the sophs will be disappointed.
Seniors Plan Revenge.
Here is the story told by member
of the class;
"The sophs thought they had US
buncoed and cornered so far that We
were afraid to show our very faces.
The sophs have been going about the
assembly room with one of those
smiles which means so much conceit,
and has an appearance as though the
sophs and the sophs only were the
predominating faction at the school.
"They planted seeds of blue grass
and along with it seeds of hope, thai
the seniors would remain asleep unit
their 90 had sprouted and grown.
yesterday several of the fellows
played hockey from the chemistr!
, class They took a large bottle o
, hydrochloric acid with them.
Saturated Seeds With Acid.
"They went to the place which ha
been so carefully shielded by tn
sophs, dug up the ground and saturat
ed the seeds planted in the groun
about them with the acid.
1.-THE result-No more growing fc
= those bluegrass and daisy seeds"

How Women Shor.

IT have found OUT" said the gray
headed man, "why it takes a woman
so long to do a little shopping. 1t is
because she stops to count her money
so often. I went shopping with a
woman the other day. She pays
cash for everything, consequently she
took money along. She counted it
just before she left home. She had
S24.65. The first thing she bought
was a piece of silk. AS soon as she
had paid for that she counted her
money again, with a host of other
shoppers and employees, of course,
standing around watching the pro-
ceeding. After that she made several
other purchases, and upon settling fer
each one she counted her money.
81 want to know all the time just
how much I have left,' she said, so
I'll be sure not to buy anything SO ex-
pensive that I won't have money
enough to pay for it.
"But there is a simpler way than
counting every time,' I suggested.
why don't you substract the price of
your last purchase from your last
amount?'
"Oh,' said she, I meyer thought of
that, and anyhow I never was very
good at New York Sun.

when you return you shall have the

Humpy started OFF in the highest
spirits. He had gone only a block
when he met that Thomas boy and
was saluted with:
"Hello. Hump! What you got there:"
"a banjo"
"It hain't yoursr'
'Nope. I'm taking it up on Harrison

. "And he trusted you with a banjo,

anywhere in American history that
George Washington was trusted with q
banjo belongingft to some M else? No,
sir, you can't. You are going right up
to the top as fast as you a go, and I
predict that they'll have your picture
in the papers in less n six months"
The boy and the banjo had gone a
block farther when they encountered a
street a conductor off duty and lean
ing UP against wall on the corner.
He had had two or three drinks to Keep
the bears of and was feeling good.
"Hello, bub: That's a queer sort Of
hatbox!" he said as he reached out
for Humpy.
1T hain't no hatbox; it's a banjo in

not to open the case"
"Never mind what the man told you,
sonny. I'm running this old car this
trip. I'll have you dancing before I
have played a dozen notes Of Yankee
Doodle"
Humpy protested I'M hung on to the
box but it would have been wrested
from him except that a policeman saw
the squabble from afar and came has
tening up the street.

leased his hold on the box. Cali I

The officer told Humpy to hump
himself along, and his command was
obeyed. He reached Ninth street with
out further adventure and boarded a
car, but he was scarcely seated when a
woman beside him looked him over
very sharply and said:
boy, did the conductor take notice
of that box when you got on?"
"Yes'm. He asked me if I had a cat
in it, and 1 told him no."
