HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

On account Of the muddy condition
Of the roads, the High School ma
chimes were unable to go out again
this morning. Many Of those from
the country came in on horseback and
in buggies, however. A little over
half Of the average attendants were
present and classes continues, where
as none were held yesterday after
noon.
Candy parties and good times for
dark days were in order yesterday
afternoon, when recitations were sus-
pended. Those who found it possible
and whose perseverance got them to
school found that the faculty could
be Ienient and that they were very
much ahead. Rain breaks in on
school work, however, and Mr.. Ran
dali threatened to have it turned off.

Emotions.

Emotions are what you have when
you are all stirred up; for example,
when you are in love or when a note
which you had previously forgotten
suddenly falls due. Also, when you
think you are writing poetry and when
you are leading one who is practically
total stranger up to an altar, where,
by previous arrangement and design,
you have stationed a gentleman with
power to cause you more future trou-
BILE than you have ever dreamed of.
Science tells us that something cannot
come out of nothing, yet emotions
seem to do this. A calm, placid lady
whom you have known and trusted for
years will suddenly have emotions
which will create an area of disturb
ance extending for miles in all direc-
tons. Emotions are felt but not seen.
If you could see an emotion coming
with the naked eye, you might be able
to avoid it. Some men can thus avoid
emotions when they see their wives
coming, but not when they have emo
tons themselves.
Emotions are of various kinds and
are variously expressed; New York
policeman expresses his with a club,
and every dog with the end Of his,
taiL-Life.

"Russian ballets!" Birsky cried.

"Aber the United States is a real
country" Birsky protested, ''while

said, "and the trouble with you is.
Birsky, that you amt got no imagina-

Maybe I amt" Birsky agreed,
"aber when the book says: Mrs. Fa-
TINA Harris is the favorite wife of
Sultan Charles q. Harris, y'under-
stand, and a couple Of hundred young
ladies comes out and dances it for
you, for all you understand what they
are driving at they might just SO well

quests the ladies to remove their

that's all there is to it.
might it's because you amt ac-
quainted with the Russian language
maybe" Zapp suggested. "You take
Russian ballet which amt in the
country two weeks, understand, and
naturally they couldn't even talk the
English language let alone dance it. :"
"Then how did the police get on
that it was immoral?" Birsky asked.
"Probably they sent policeman
there which speaks Russian" zapp
said. They've got such fellers on the
police force, Birsky. There is even
policemen which can shake down
saloon keepers in every European lam
guage, and Chinese and Hebrew, also,
Birsky, and besides, Birsky, what
business do you got supporting Rus

claimed. "How can you say such q
thing? I've got just SO many custom
ers Which is for the Allies as against
'em, Zapp-more even, and I am per-
fectly neuter about this here war.

starve. Is that the idee? It's like all
them advertisements you see for ex-

man would got to start in as new
beginner with at least five years ex-
perience as a salesman.
"Or else lie about it, Birsky said.
"Aber you couldn't lie about being
sitson," Zapp continued. you've got

''Well, maybe this here oitermobile
concern says that they wouldn't pro-

Even so,'' Birsky went on, my idee

do it for love, because if a Teller gets
married for money and his wife should
go broke, he amt going to stay faith
full to her very long, and if teller
becomes a sitson to get job, y'under-

his job and right away he becomes a
no good American sitson. Then if

Naturally people from the country
seeing such a thing would get a
shock" Zapp commented.

the police knew their business they
would arrest the two front rows of a

for the bad effect the faces has got on
the morals of the actors and actresses.
However, Zapp, supposing that the
people which goes to see the Russian
ballet is as innocent as the police
claims, Zapp, it wouldn't make no diff

like the def and dumb language,
zapp, people has got to study it for

said as he glanced over the bill of
fare in Wasserbauer's Restaurant.
"Some theayter managers is very
lucky that way" Louis Birsky, the
real estater, said.
"How lucky?'' Zapp demanded.
Because what the police calls bad,
looks awful good to a whole lot Of peo-
pie. Yes, Zapp, all that show needs
is for the police to call it immoral,
and a couple Of orchestra seats down
front becomes right away as valuable
as two perfect matched pearls from
ten carats apiece" Birsky said. "The

/ could save lot of money that way"
"And was it so bad like the police
said?" Zapp asked.
"Well, I'll tell you," Birsky replied.
''You wouldn't think it to look at a
policeman what delicate disposition
such Teller has got. A New York
policeman will get red over something
in a theayter which for years respect

show you would think she was dressed

''Was the show so bad like the po-
lice said?" Zapp inquired once. more.
'sWell, I'll tell you," Birsky repeat
that show is immoral and they

selves in the place of the average
theayter goer; but the only thing is,
they got an idee that people which
goes most to the theayter was never

In particular, when it comes to a

THE shepherds, watching through
Il the night,
Were startled by an angel bright,
Who bade them not to fear,
For he brought tidings of great jog
That will the sin of Eve destroy
And dry the bitter tear.
The shepherds, kneeling on the sod,
Then heard that Christ, the Son OF
God,
Was in a stable born,
So poor that on bed of hay
The lovely infant Jesus lay

The shepherds to adore him went
And heard the ehoirs from heaven

With grandest voices sing,
Glory be to God on high
And on earth peace to those who try
To love the infant King.

!: Pretty Christmas Customs


There are many pretty customs
which are observed at Christmas time
in different countries. One of the
prettiest of these customs is thus de-
scribed by a traveller in Sweden. He
writes: lone wintry afternoon at
Christmastide l had been skating on
a pretty lake three miles from Gothen-
burg. On my way home l noted that
at every farmers house there was
erected. in the middle of the dooryard,
a pole, to the top Of which was bound
a large, full sheaf of grain. This, l
was informed, was for the little wild
birds. They must have merry Christ
mas. too l was told. Not peasant

dren to a Christmas dinner indoors IN
