1t is thought that they are buried in
some snow DRIFT between Chicago and
this city.
The song books have arrived and
the hopes of majority of the high
school students are tina we can begin
the days work with singing. The
songs we used to sing used TO make
us drowsy and dull but Prof. Clark
assures US that the collection he has
got will wake US up and inspire us
with the working spirit. No more
eyes will grow heavy and no heads re-
cine at the third bar of music.
Alex Cunningham has placed some
interesting relics in the high school
library. Among them is piece of
the first Cuban fly, taken from the
battle field by cousin of Cunning ham,
petrified sea shell, Cuban razor,
which by the way looks as tho you
might be able to split wood with it,
Indian stone spear head, piece of
cornelian and beautiful specimen of
petrifed foam. The curio collection
is enlarging rather slowly, tho it is
the wish of Prof. Clark and others
that the cases in the library be filled.
Bring up whatever you've got in the
inc of cur iOs-safty is guaranteed.
On account of the Herald having
gone to press Thursday evening re.
port for the class day proceedings
could not be published. As usual the
various classes were given the privi
ledge of giving their class yells at the
close of roll call. The Sophomores
gave the first yell, the Freshies the
second and the Seniors the last 1t
seems the Juniors finding no other
way of squaring themselves with the
Sophomores, who by the way have
ssos all past honors on class days. nr-
ranged with the Freshies not to give
their ell as it was to be the last one
before the real competition. Ii the
Juniors and Freshmen will in the
next class day act the part that they
should, the deserving class will prove
who is capable OF becoming superior
to them. AT three-twenty, the classes
retired to their class rooms and from
that hour on. noticeable mark of
friendly rivalry was visible. There
were no class fights, no attempts at
throwing class rivals out through the
windows, no attempts of any kind that
would lead to a riot were made. The
Seniors had spread which we under
stand consisted of food made from
chemicals in the labratory and as our
friend Chas. Raberge says-s'it was
fine.'
The Juniors entertained themselves
as only the Juniors know how. Their
spread, we understand, cons listed of
the remains of the contents of their
lunch baskets(a a grape basket with a
paper cover which was filled and
billed for the necktie social held at
the Carr school house in Melrose
some two weeks ago-but for some
reason known only to the girls it was
postponed. We wonder why. After
having their feed they retired to the
gym, where they astonished each
other by daring feats upon the trapeze,
rings and pig. Nina andervoort,
who is noted for her ferceness, soon
excelled her class mates in swinging
from the rings 1t was while she was
soaring over the heads of the other
athletes, whose hair it is said was
standing upright, that she found that
her pompadour had loosened and so
she let 60 of the rings to right it.
Nina's feet we're heavier than she had
tho't and she fell to the floor with a
mighty thud, and as our friend Bessie
Downie told us, the way Nina fell was
awfully awful. When she struck the
floor she wasn't all there-she was,
to speak coarsely, out of her head
The dumb founded boys at once go,
busy and w alter Watson dashed q
pail of water over her. This
seemed to revive her and she sat up
ana asked if her hair was mussed up.
After being assured that it wasn't,
she arose.
The Sophomore boys having pre-.
pared dainty spread for the ladies
began the Entertainment by appointing
guards to see that the little girls were
fed with nothing that would choke
them. The spread seemed to please
the ladies for the way they went after
that half pound hunk of cheese was
awful. Hugh Wood insisted that the
boys should get their share, but all
entreaties were in vain.
| Francis Farley made the motion
that each lady should be given the
privilege of eating but one cracker
apiece. George Dore seconded the
motion. but while the boys had beer

stolen the whole sack of crackers 81

and little Andy Lockhart from crying
