The Freshmen Weiner Roast.
We wanted to have a Freshman
party but there was too big a crowd
to have it at any ones house so Oliver
Cass said we could have weiner
roast out in his fathers pasture. That
was all settled; then the next thing
to do was to get chaperon and
place to meet. We decided to have
Miss Acomb and Miss Quigley for
chaperones and to meet at the new
school house. So on the following
Friday, the little band of Freshmen
were seen patiently waiting for some
more of their lively crowd. 1t was
about seven o'clock when we started.
We certainly had a jolly time going
out to Mr.. Cass.' We were divided
into three groups; the boys in one
group; some of the girls and Miss
Acomb and Miss Quigley in another
and some more girls in another. We
ran and yelled at every team that
came past, When we were almost out
ran after sand some one pulled the
there we were met by two ghosts; they
sheets off them and we saw to our
surprise that it was Oliver Cass and
Homer Bisel. We were so tired when
we arrived at the farm that we all had
to sit down and have drink of water.
We were soon rested and then started
to find a place to play games. The
only place big enough was out in the
pasture. Some of the girls did not
want to go out there because they
were afraid of cows, but when they
were told that the cows were perfect
ly harmless they were very brave and
came right along. We went out quite
a ways in the pasture before we could
find a nice level place to play games.
We played all the games we could
think of for about two hours. Then it
was getting late so the boys gathered
sticks and logs to build a fire. They
also had to get some sticks to roast
the weiners on. The fire was soon
flaming brightly and then we all sat
around it. The boys spread their coats
on the ground for the girls to sit on.
We roasted weiners, ate apples and
buns until all of us felt pretty we'll
satisfied. We sat around, told stories,
sang songs and told jokes after we had
eaten.
Mrs. Cass came to see what we were
doing, and then she asked us to come
up co the house. We collected all our
belongings and then started for the
house. When we got there Mrs. Cass
had large pan of pop corn for US.
We soon got rid of the popcorn and
then thought it time to thank Oliver
and his mother for letting us come
there and then go home. We did so
When we were going home some one
came along in Ford and gave some
of the girls ride. Joe Dicks didn't
want the rest of us to feel hurt so he
got his car and "piled in" as many
as he could. He left US at the school
house and went back after the rest of
them. When he had taken all of US
to the school house we went home
laughing at the good time we had had.

The Sank Centre Schools Entertain
ments.
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1917-04-12

The first program was given at
Christmas time. All the small grades
had different exercises, which were
very amusing to the audience. The
Senior and Junior High schools each
sang Christmas selection. A large
Christmas tree heavily burdened with
sparkling ornaments stood in the CEN
ter OF the stage. Mr.. and Mrs. Santa
Claus distributed gifts in the smaller
grades. Then they came onto the
stage and warned hte youngsters to
be good or Santa Claus might forget
them.
The second program was given to Gel
citrate Washington's and Lincoln's
birthday. The smaller grades gave
drills, which brought out the schools
patriotism. The Sixth grade girls
sang a song and then played "a Man
Without Country" Miss Sharkey
recited 'The Storming of Missionary
Ridge Aloysius Breher gave the
Gettysburg Address" Mrs. Norris re-
cited, after which the Women's Relief
Corps donated flags to the school,
which were hung in all the rooms.
On December the eighth the high
school gave minstrel show, which
was exceptionally good. The first act
represented scene before the loading
of the Mandy Lee. The stage was COW
cred with negroes, which we have to
admit were Sank Centre boys. The
second act was an evening on deck
Some of the boys sang PLANTATION songs
which were very amusing. They had
many good jokes, which kept the au-
dience in good humor. The third and
last act was cakewalking. Four negro
couples entered the stage; the men
wore dress suits; the women (who
were Sank Centre boys) wore loud
dresses. A cake was to be given to
the best cake walk dancers. They
weer all so good that it was hard to
decide which was the best. Willis
Benson and Milton Fish won in the
matinee but Alphonso Bentfeld and
Charles Allen won the real cake in the
evening.

LOST IN ENGLAND

The American Young Mems Chris
tian association, says dispatch from
London reports that detachment of
80 American soldiers which had been
lost in England for more than five
weeks has now rejoined the American
forces BY some mistake these men
were set down in British camp
without a single officer or penny.
The day after they arrived at this
camp 2S Of them fell victim of the
German measles and were sent to an
isolation hospital.
For five weeks the Americans were
unable to obtain stamps for letters
home, or even tobacco. Then they
were discovered by an American col
lege student who is in British
Young Mems Christian association
hut. He arranged to have each man
supplied with package of cigarettes
and six postage stamps daily and a
weekly credit of 10 shillings at the
Young Mems Christian association
canteen. Later the plight of these
men was communicated to the Ameri-
can authorities, who sent $40 each to
tide the men over until arrangements
could be made to restore them to
their proper units.
