From College Hill.

A change for the better has been
made in the daily program for the
high school. Instead Of al t,o stud
ents meeting i'll the assembly hall, the
first thing in the morning they go at
once to their various classes. Then
at the end Of the second period the
students come into the auditorium for
fifteen minutes, during which time
high school teachers take turns at
giving some talk or reading on any
subject they wish. MIR. Harrell, the
science teacher, has taken the sub
ject Of Astronomy for his talk, and
Misses Graham and Nolan will give
readings and talks on different SUBJ
jects. Miss Gibson, being the music
teacher, will have that as her subject.
These midmoruing exercises are in
tended to be instructive and at the
same time to relieve the monotony Of
the daily routine.
Two societies have been organized
but no names have as yet been decid-
ed upon. Last Friday they held their
first meeting and elected officers.
The football team has put in some
pretty hard practice so far in order to
get used to the new rules and to learn
how to use them. They have played
three or four scrub games with the
MI hny
form.
Our signals have been arranged,
land if you should hear a noise in the
northwest part of town that sounds
like several people were having the
riot act read to them, do not get
alarmed, as it will only be the boys
practicing them.
The members of the high school
organized two societies on last Friday
the 10Th. Part of the students met in
Miss Nolan's room and organized a
society which, for convenience, will
be called No. 2. Students were called
to order by Miss Graham, and nomi-
nations for the various officers was in
order. The following officers were
elected: Everette Flick, president;
Morrel Milburn, vice-pA esident; Fred
die Thomas, secretary; Lorena Walk
or, treasurer; Aubrey Orr, lictor. The
following appointments were made
by the president: Musical critic,
Mildred Larrabee and literary critic,
Nancy Long. The program commit
tee, Lola Huffman, Katie Lee White
and Bryant Long, has submitted the
following program for Friday, Sept.
.23rd (today):
