HIGH SCHOOL hoftS
Agnes Bailey.

Monday evening after school the
juniors held a GLASS meeting some
where In the school building. It was
a quiet affair and seniors have taken
particular pains to ask no questions.
We believe the results win appear
later.
Fifteen or twenty boys and girls
stirred up thoroughly with one spool
of blue silk thread and enough laugh
ter and chatter to remove the sthff-
ness, and and allowed to stand for ha II
an hour in teacherless school room
Us an excellent recipe for jolly time.
1t was tried Monday afternoon ia our
assembly room with great success.
The third year English class tell
us that they have just finished read
ing "The House Of Seven Gables. /.
They say 1t with sigh OF relief for
they found 1t dry reading. The pleas
ant task OF writing a book report of
dit still remains.
After three days labor (using a
different method each day. ON ter
rble problem in Geometry, Mr.. Ham
son believes he has a new clue to it's
solution. The class begin to think
1t is unavoidable, at least 1t is be-
yond them.
The fixtures for the gymnasium
arrived this week and were deposited
in the lower hall They are being
unpacked and put ih place by the
jandtor with the help of Mr.. Warmer
and some OF the high school boys.
Ii you want ito know what they are
you'll have to come and see them.
We confess ignorance as to the
names of the queer things. So far
the only familiar thing we've seen
is ladder.
The fourth year German class have
finished "Wdlham Tell" and consider
their work almost over I'm that line,
Tuesday afternoon we enjoyed a
lecture by Professor Hanson He re-
quested us, yes he commanded us to
put our books under our desks at the
close of school. Going on a tour Of
after school was dismiss
ed, he found some books On a desk
in Junior row. The owner had made
a pilgrimage to the waste paper bas-
ket but she was severely chided for
not taking her books with her. Com
tinudng his inspection Mr.. Hanson
found some more books ON sopho-
mores desk. The owner being away,
he hid the books In his own desk.
This caused a great deal OF confu-
sion and hunting and now one soph.
omore at least puts her books away

meet at Moscow, which he and EN-
nett O'Neil attended. He barely
mentioned the fact that he won sec.

On Thursday afternoon Rev. Smith, |
1.-THE Methodist Evangelist address d
u.s. He showed his impartiaMty by
ng each class a hard hit. We can't |
ell which was worst, they were al so
bad but the sophomores got their
share all right.

'racticed the play and thus escaped |
latin class. We congratulated our
selves that we had our lesson all

learsal we almost collapsed starring
