High School Notes

The teachers training pupils are a
great help to the grade teachers
when they need a holiday Margaret
Hodgson substituted two days for
Miss Thompson in the departmental
work at the West Side school last
week. Quite a number of others
have substituted for teachers.
The basketball boys should be "all
swelled up" over their new suits.
Other teams have been copying the
old suits so they thought some new
suits would be good. The new outfit
contains caps, an article which no
Ashland team has hitherto worn. The
caps, sweaters and socks are entirely
red except for three small white
stripes around the middle Of each.
Kenneth Lilly, Is, visited school
Monday and Tuesday and renewed all
his old ackueintances. From his
looks one would not think he has
broken his old habit of eating when
possible.
Walter Carpenter, IA, who is now
attending the o. A. c., visited school
Monday.
Both the chemistry and biology
classes have had two period recita-
tions all week. This review work
goes in such a hurry that most of the
pupils hardly know what to do.
In chemistry on Tuesday the stu
dents made several miniature char
coal kilns, from which they took
some excellent charcoal On We'd
nesday Professor Ruch conducted an
experiment on bromine and iodine
which was almost as bad as the one
the students performed with chlorine.

Charley Porter and Fred Schuer-
man visited the school last week.
Fred is contemplating a post gradu-
ate course.
Friday afternoon as the first team
did not practice very long very ex-
citing scrub game was organized. 1t
was accompanied by few Swedish
jigs on the victrola, which was oper-
ated by the girls who watched the
game. The boys say they can play
wonderfully to the music of the vic
trola.
Some of the girls had feed in the
domestic science rooms Friday noon.
1t certainly smelled like a real feed
fiom the hall below.
Ruth Porter, '15, who is teaching
school this winter, visited the teach
ers' training class last Thursday. She
gave much sage advice to the ignor-
ant young class. No doubt they will
all appreciate it when they go to
teaching.
There have been several pretty
large columns of dust rising around
