OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
! HIGH SCHOOL TIDINGs.

. ~~~A~A%A~%%~%% So
The report cards were given out yes
terday. It was stated that the grades
for the month are much lower than the
grades for the previous month. Prin-
cipal McElroy said that this was due
no doubt to the anticipations of Christ
mas.
The grades this month will no doubt
be better than the last ones, because
this is the last month before the final
exams take place and each one will
be working harder TO escape the grasp
of the finals.
For chapel this morning Professor
Leaning gave short talk on Men
delssohn. He also played a selection
composed by the great composer.
Professor Leaning has started in
earest to arrange the chorus for the
contest He made an announcement
that he wanted to see all the persons
singing alto. Hammond expects to be
Johnny on the spot in the chorus
work in the contest.
Basketball practice was held last
night at 4:s0. The squad is working
hard to be in shape for the future
games.
Next Friday evening the high school
basketball team will line UP against
the Baptist Athletic club team This
will be a strong contest, from start
to finish, as both teams have been play
ing good ball this season. The man
agement is trying to secure a game
with Whiting. If they can be induced
to come over, the second team will line
up against them. Two contests of this
sort will make strong bill for an
evening, and lovers of basketball will
have a chance to see a good game
The bell signaling the need of a
period has been repaired and remedied
to quite extent. Now the teacher
in charge of the room does not have
to rise from the seat to ring the bell
as heretofore. This has made quite
hit" with the faculty, as it is more
convenient than the old one.
The honor roll of the school is as
follows:
Nellie Hathaway and Genevieve
Briggs SO, Fern Sprague ct As, Walter
Jarnecke sc As, Robin Amoss 95 4-5.
Donald Sparkling 951k.
