SCHOOL NOTES
(By D. w. and T. T.)

Last rrlQay evening witnessed
the gayest social event of the
school year. The efforts of the
Faculty and Junior class were
combined to make the Junior Fac
ulty reception one that will be
long remembered. The hall was
not over-crowded, due to the fact
that certain self-sacrificing men,
bers of the Senior class refraincd
from taking part in the festivity.
Those who did not attend were
loud in their praise of each de-
tail of the affair, from the delight
full dinner to the dainty decora-
tions. Rah! Rah! Rah! Juniors
Rah! Rah! Rah! Faculty!
WANTED to know: where the
can of delicate, pink salmon re-
served by we girls for salad, walk
ed off when we were all our hun
griest and were just making the
final preparations. Perhaps a
word of explanation at this place
might prove beneficial to those
who would like to know what we
are talking about. You see, our
play demands so much time at
present that a group of the caste
resolved to partake of dainty
luncheon here in the school build
ing in order to save some of our
precious time and thus be in our
places at precisely seven for the
evening rehearsal. Then were our
visions deceived and deluded by
our dreams, for 10! no sooner were
we in readiness for the banquet
than we were previously smitten
and, our hopes blighted! The can
was gone! However, another can
was procured and we enjoyed our
prospective feast to the utmost. Is
not this proof enough that where
there's will there's way? We
can't help sympathizing with the
thief or thieves when they are dis
covered, for the wages of sin is
sure death.
Ye Royal Faculty! Would it
please your majcstics to consider
the price Of midnight oil. CA word
to the wise is sufficiently Will
some one of the citizens of Cen
trail volunteer to take up a dona-
tion to buy the High school pup
lis ear trumpets? 1t appears that
we need them in order that we
may hear the bell signals to class
es. Wednesday morning a few of
those students who are especially
anxious and eager to get to class,
proceeded hence before the bell
rang and great is the suffering
thereof! ,
1t is always interesting to know
the various ambitions of various
people or, perhaps, the queer am
bitions of queer people. We will
let you judge for yourself if the
following are interesting or queer.
Aim of the Freshmen: To be
Sophomores.
Aim of the Sophomoras: To
keep up their bluff till they can
pass geometry.
Aim of the Juniors: To guide
the other classes in the way they
should go.
Aim of the Seniors: To get
that diploma.
Aim of the Faculty: To get rid
of the Seniors as soon as possi-
BILE.
Charles-I have been to church
today! (He was merely translat-
ing Spanish.)
He-Richic is greatly opposed
to the tipping habit. He never
gives tips for anything.
Ethyl-Yes, I've noticed that.
He doesn't even tip his hat.
A certain spinster(?) was be-
ing condoled with because she had
no husband. why" she said, 81
don't want husband. I'm just
as we'll off. You see, have dog
and he growls; l have a parrot,
and he swears; l have a chimney
that smokes; l have cat and he
stays out nights. Now, why
should get married?"
Hoping you approve our find
ings, we remain,
John Bunyan,
John B. Corn.
