strict rules. Not that the class has
been disobedient, but to prevent dis
obedience and preserve quietness and

Well. guess we are going to have
boys glee club. Miss Hughes has
been testing the voice of every boy
in high school this week, and big
glee club is expected
| Mr.. Wells has been taking pictures
this last week. How he has held US

The report cards for the second
Period of six weeks were given out
Friday noon. There seems to be
little mystery as to why some of
the pupils have to go to the office
to get their cards. We can assure
you that this mystery will be dis

as not to get your card in the as

easily be given. If you get your

The banquet given by the high
school girls to the foot ball men has
been postponed until after Christ

this. The revival meeting is on.
