Despite the bad weather, a crowd
of people gathered at the Fair
Grounds to witness the Panhandle
Track and Field Meet. 1t was lit
tie late in beginning owing to the
fact that several of the contestants

Mable Lancaster, who attended
high school here last year but is now
in Guymon, spent the week end with
her aunt, Miss Wilson.
Concealed weapons are being carried
by high school students. 1t may hap
pen while passing thru the dark cor
ridors of the building one will be
waylaid by villain who possesses
one of these water guns. Not always
are the guilty ones lurking in corners
and dark places but attacks have been
made upon the teachers as they went
about the rooms.
Genevieve Strickland taught the
Caesar class in Miss Henry's absence.
Miss Anna Thomas taught at the
Lincoln school last week.
Leora Green visited her home near
Elkhart last week over Saturday and
Sunday and did not return until
Tuesday.
Miss Carr is conducting a very
formal Civics class lately. Discus
sions and volunteering are out of or
der. One student at time is asked
to take the floor and questions are
put to him. He is to answer briefly
and to the point eliminating CONVEX
sation that has been drawback to
the efficiency of this class for some
time. After his recitation the stu
dent is to sit down and keep still for
the rest of the period, thus giving
every one a chance to recite. This
is new method in L. H. S. and there
is much argument pro and con. No
doubt it is very efficient but the ques-
ton is, will it not take away inter-
est, from the subject and recitation,
Sporting days are here and we see
many evidences of this, but the most
noticeable of all is Professor Rim
dom's tie. After wearing sober white
and black stripes all winter it was
quite surprise to the students of
L. H. S. to see him blossom out"

Operetta a Success

The Operetta given by the high
school chorus was an unlimited sue
cess. The play was given just right
and each seemed to live his part.
Thomas Upper is in real life good
comedian and did his part well. The
double wedding bells chimed merrily
and now that they are married we
wish them very happy life. The
sailors deserve honorable mention for
they were at home in their roles. Two
clever sailor dances were put on and
were very much enjoyed. The solo
parts were taken by Lucille Skinner,
Sarah Snow, Virginia Grimwood,
Clifford Leete, T. ]. Smith, William
Edison, and George Spreading. These
characters were supported by an able
chorus of high school singers. Miss
Meyers the director deserves a great
deal of credit for the success of the
production.

Last Tuesday afternoon the Nor
NAL Training class went out seven
miles to visit Miss Anthony's school.
Edna Bloom and VIM. Edison took
the class in their cars. Every one
took a lunch and ate it on the way
out there. Miss Anthony had six
teen classes recite during the after
noon. This seems like a good many
but she just had from one to three
pupils in each class. She also serves
hot lunches every noon. This is usu-
ally soup. Each pupil has cup and
spoon that he leaves at the school,
and these and other necessities such
as salt, pepper, sugar, ETC., are kept
in cabinet. The children take turn
about bringing milk, ETC., to make
the soup. Then the girls work in
pairs. Each pair has certain day
to wash the dishes and keep the cab
met in order. They have no oil
stove, so the soup is cooked on a
heater.
