aJg School Notes.
Seniors


Did you know Sophomore meant
Wise Fool?" We didn't know ii
until Miss Chapman told us today.
This information clears up a good
deal of mystery pertaining to why
the Sophomores, who are really as
much fools as Freshies, consider
themselves so wise.
Worse and more Of it. We knew
the Freshies were bad enough but
the latest is: one Freshie boy and
one freshie girl were sent out Of:
English class Wednesday, the cause
unknown but supposed to be because
they laughed or knew too little
lit might have been both.
We, the Seniors, are absolutely
ashamed of our schoolmates. We
can look over the petty tricks of the
Freshies and perhaps Sophomores,
hut Juniors should know better.
Now listen to this. In solid geom-
etry two of the Juniors stretched a
wire across one of the chairs, with
the usual result, when third Junior
sat down, or tried to, in the chair,
the aforesaid third Juniors heels
went higher than his head.
Mr.. Watson has resolved to charge
five cents to each history pupil for
every "and" he or she uses in class.
The money is to go to the Red Gross.
Coulee City will soon be in the lead
in Red Gross donations.
Junior
The members of the Junior class
are very sorry to hear of the COM
ing departure of one of their fore
most members, Nellie Hermanson
The news of her engagement was
kept secret until she accidentally
revealed it in German class.
The members of the manual train.
ing, class are now taking some work
in mechanical drawing.
y. The basket bell game last Saturday
night was very interesting, resulting
in a score of IL to 81 in favor Of tho
Alumni to say nothing of broken
nose presented to one of the Alumni
ay-a alember of the Sophomore class.
Sophomores
A fire drill was given "Wednesday
and picture OF the seffifre school

...Silas Mariner" is becoming inter-
esting. We have it three times a
week. The other two days we have
to write descriptions but we are all
sick Of them andEhope they will stop
soon.
Some of. the propositions in Geom-
etry are puzzling and we have g
hard time solving them.
Z Neva and Helen were absent from
school Wednesday. We suppose il
was too rainy for them to be out.
1t sure seems like real spring. May
be we are going to have winter all
summer:
Our history teacher has been tell
ing us that we all have superfluous
amount of bone above the teeth but
Wednesday he gave us compliment
by saying he was well pleased with
our lesson and that it was very
good one. Wonder if it was because
Neva and Helen were absent?. vs
Freshman
The High School is organizing {
Junior Red Cross in which all art
