structors during the last few days
winked decidedly when their all-see-
ing eyes saw n long paper, covered
with names. flash from desk to desk
for an additional name to be added to
the subscription list. They knew from
experience such a paper in times past
meant n big time for the boys and a
fat turkey for them.
Promptly at 10 o'clock in walked the
committee appointed by the student
body, each having a struggling bird
under his arm, with the Academy col
ors of orange and blue tied to his
charge in all conceivable places.
Immediately school was suspended,
and. the boys crowded to the gymna-
SUM to watch the teachers catch their
turkeys, 1t being understood that the
instructor must first catch the bird
before owning him. Cheers were given
impartially for bird and man. A brill
liant side step or low duck by the
turkey receiving the same applause as
when the strong arm of the pedaSogue
finally flashed out and five eager fin
gers grpped the willy bird by his tail.
After each capture. cries for speech
were responded to with a right good
will. boys and their teachers after
ward leaving the grounds, laughing
and talking in boon companionship.
