INSISTS ON PATRIOTISM
Instructor ct High School Orders
Pupils to Learn Verses of America
and Star Spangled Banner.

An order has been issued by Paul
Dillingham;, instructor in English at
the High school, to his 90 or more
pupils that it will be a part of their
study course to learn accurately all
verses of the Star Spangled Banner"
and "America." The inability of the
average pupils to sing these patriotic
songs correctly, especially since a
majority could remember only the
first verses and were familiar only
with the closing strains, is the rea-
son for this edict.
Within a few days the instructor
will give his pupils a special exam
nation to determine whether they
have complied with the assignment.
Recently Mr.. Dillingham; introduced
g. new book, Democracy Today" as
q part OF the English course This
includes President Wilson's speeches
Of the past few years and the book
is loaned to the pupils, the purchase
of Thrift Stamps being the medium
of exchange.
