Schoolhouse Moved.

The moving OF the old school building
is completed and the foundation being
put in, the question now arises,
what use shall be made of it? A
chance to supply a long felt need of
our school is found in this building.
For years the social life of the acad-
emv has of necessity been neglected
for the lack of school hall in which
to hold lyceums, socials, basketball
games, etc. This side of school life
is essential. Other communities
recognize this fact, why not ours? A
hall we'll adapted to all the needs of
the school acould9ssbe Sfnishe on l. - "a
first ssfoor of the building, -leavingssthe
second story free for other purposes.
Simple apparatus for gymnasium
work is a need, which the students
could be relied upon to furnish, thus
meeting another lack in our school
equipment. Talk it over and let US
hear your opinion on the subject.
The following poem was submitted
in connection with the moving of the
building.
The old schoolhouse is moved
From its long resting place,
Its trials ard troubles are DER
You won't hear the teacher
Say, "Archie, come out here
And hold that nail down in the floor. D
Nor see spitballs flying about,
And the teacher so mad by the door
Nor smell the red pepper put onto
the stove.
You sneeze and you sneeze DER anC
You won't see the pumpkins up in the
front porch.
And as many more smashed by the
door.
The scholars are laughing, coming t.
school,
Owens sheep is hitched to the door
We never were worried with trouble
nor care
! In school nor out on the street
| If we got into trouble we did not mine
that,
We were sure of three lickings
week.
Our childhood days are passed,
Our schooldays are gone,
There are none that we can recall
But twill be fresh in my memory
] AS long as / live.
! They were happy schooldays for US all
