HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

/ The Beethoven program given Thurs
day of last week was great success.
Many visitors were present to enjo
the interesting papers of this great
mans life and the excellent music.

the success of the program which was
as follows:

sephlne Simpson.
Sonata-Miss Fenton -
Rondo- Doris Wyatt

Anna Silvers
Moonlight Senate" Mrs. Black.
'Albmenblatt" Elizabeth Ewin. ,
Senior Notes.
We Seniors surely have horrible
"heart rendering" news for the Jun
iors. Monday Helen o. Maxey in her
usual enthusiastic style told Miss Fem
ton just what would happen if, as she,
intimated to the Juniors, she allowed
them to read Homer's Odyssey" with
out reporting on it.. Miss Fenton smiled
calmly: ooh well, if the Juniors knew
me as well as you Seniors do they would
not believe it, So prepare for the
Odyssey" Juniors.
Mrs. Hill has been having toothache.
Consequently the morning history sec
tons have had two days off. The at
ternoon sections have been very sorry
for the toothache, but they do wish it
had struck in the afternoon one day.
Every one is working hard getting
up their work, ready for Christmas,
The outside reading reports are all in.
Everyone feels better and in a great
deal more of a holiday spirit than if
they were hanging over our heads. go,
The Seniors wish every one a very
merry Christmas and Happy New
Year.
Sophmore Notes.
We will be very glad when Thursday
comes so we can quit our usual routine
of study, recite, study. We are going
to leave our books at school and never
look at them all during vacation. Then
with rested brains we will begin again
our usual duties when vacation is over.
We succeeded, that is most of us did,
in getting our reports on 1.-The Lady of
the Lake" ready to hand in Monday of
this week. Miss Fenton gave US the
English period Monday morning to work
on them, and when we went to class
some of US found that we had written
them in an entirely wrong form. Miss
Fenton being in exceedingly good hum
or, gave us the rest Of the day to copy
them.
Some Of the other classes have been
asking US how many Red Cross Christ
mas seals we have sold. We suppose
they are afraid the Sophmores will sell
more than they do, and we will if .they
don't hustle.
We sincerely hope-tha all of you
who read these notes will have just as
Merry Christmas and as Happy a New
Year as the Sophmores hope to have.
Freshman Notes.
The Freshman class has sold few
stamps and are still busy as bees. The
