girls waved hello to them.
1t was soon evident that the co-eds

the school undertook a parade through
town for advertising purposes and
when they returned to school later In

During the noon recess today the en-

girls had grown faint OF heart and had
returned to school. There were. how

what they felt to be their duty. They
accordingly par;idcd an aforesaid.
Upon their return to school they cN-
pectod to be greeted by the car with
an ukasc to tho effect that they. too.

there was evident the effect of lender

town. At tho hend Of the column OF
pairs walked with the air OF a drum
major a trim girl clad In grey, no

her compatriots In perfect line and
announcing the step with strident
voice,
A part of tho procedure was r
sercnade in front Of The News office,
wherein all tho favorite yells of the
high school were waited from the
street TO the editorial rooms In the
fourth floor in airshattcring soprano

opportunities afforded for gaining cnl-
