Jessie Smith, freshman, enrolled In
high school Monday of this week.
The students in the domestic art
class are busy remodeling wollen dres-
ises that have been worn and are out
| of style. From all appearances the
girls will have some very becoming
and servicable dresses when their
work is finished.
Having completed their work In
canning and jelly maging the people
in the domestic science class have be-
gun the study of starch cookery. At
an early date an exhibition of the
work done by the canning club will be
held in one of the stores. The plan
lis to hold this exhibition for one week
and follow it by sale on Saturday.
A thrift stamp drive has been started
in the high school and more pep" and
Ispirit are in evidence than has been
noticed for some time. The plan for
|the campaign is as follows: The stu
dents are divided into two groups with
the following officers: Group Lew
lis Tompkins, captain; Miss Davis and
Mr. Olds advisors. Group 2-Sidney
Jackson captain; Miss Heathman and
Mr.. Pittman, advisors. Every person.
including faculty members, are to buy
stamps. -tiie~rrst stamps purchased by
each member counting five per cent,
and every additional one l per cent.
Each person will report the number Of
stamps bought by him to his captain.
who in turn will report the total num-
ber for his group to Mrs. SCOT, Friday
|of each week at one o'clock. The total
lnumber for. each groun will be counted
land the ones having bought the great
lest number of stamps for the month
will be entertained by the losing side.
Wednesday of last week, Louis call
ed meeting of his recruits, and act
ing up on Mr.. Old's suggestion.
promptly named them the Millionaire
|Club." While the name sounds rather
|pretentious for high school pupils and
school teachers, here's hoping them
the best of luck. The Millionaires held
ia number of meetings behind closed
doors during the past week and on
Tuesday morning several of the men,
bers appeared with tiny bows Of gold
and silver ribbon for decorations.
These colors, gold and silver, no doubt
were chosen to be in keeping with
their millionaire name.
In the meantime Sidney has not been
idle and while the "Millionaires" insist
on calling his folks the "two-bit"
bunch, Sid. says they shall be known
to the public as the A. I. @. c., squad.
Now, figure out the meaning for your
|self Sid says he knows and also says
he defies any millionaire to decipher
lit even with the aid of Webster.
A rather mysterious meeting Of this
squad was held not only behind closed
doors but locked doors, on Tuesday
AFTERNOON. What took place has n 1t yet
been made public but II you knew
Sids, failing prepare yourselves fer
a surprise.
The first entertainment is tc be CIV
en- the evening of October 81 at the
high school by the losing side.
