PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.

: On tuesday and Friday OF thu:
week, as of every other week, al
3 o'clock all the H. S. girls. witt
the exception of the seniors, can BIZ
seen going happily from the MAR
building to the gymnasium. Ten
minutes later the long line Of girls ii
blue boomers, white middies and
tennis shoes are marching in soldier
fashion up and down the length of
the gym performing various maneu-
vers. The next fifteen or twenty min
utes the girls are going through
Greenland movements, exercising
the muscles in their backs, waists and
shoulders. Many of the high school
girls walk several miles to and from
school; others have chores or tasks
to do at home, so in the gym the girls
learn to develop the muscles not used
in walking or at any other time.
The hour closes with games between
classes or groups. The most popu-
lar game this week has been the
basket ball race. In this game be-
tween two lines of girls the basket
ball is passed backward over the
head down the row to the end. The
last girl runs with the ball to her
end of the gym then to the other
end and then passes the ball back
again down the line as before. The
line first finishing the round wins the
game. Last week the senior girls
won from the juniors.
Stock judging was started in the
sophomore agriculture class this
week. They will take it the rest of
the semester. A judging team will
be picked from this class to enter
the judging contest at the Lewiston
Live Stock Show.
The junior girls will take up stem
sling in their sewing class.
Iva and Mae Shockley joined the
sophomore class this week.
The junior high met last week and
elected the following officers: Flor
ence Stoufer, president; Dwight
Johnson, vice president; Roy Per-
rine, secretary; Edna Cargill, treas
urer. They are planning to have a
