hoping for better days in the future.
The cooking clubs held their first
meeting last Monday and elected a
committee to give a short program at
the next meeting.
Everyone seems to be very much in
terested In cooking. Whether thew
take it or not all the high school girls
and boys try to keep in favor with the
cooking girls, so they will treat them
to some of the good things they have
made. Friday the cooking girls made
three kinds Of cake and most of the
girls wanted to take theirs home, so
Miss Reycraft told them they could.
But she was not the only one to decide.
for we were chased all over the build
ing with cries of "Give me a piece of
your cake!" There wasn't much left
by the time we got out of the school
house.
The high school pupils were dis
missed at o'clock last Monday pe-
cause they all wished to go to see
Romeo and Juliet at the movies.
It is awful hard to go to school some
of these days, especially when two or
three birds perch on a limb outside
the window and seem to be saying,
Come on out and get little sun
shine" We are all waiting for the
time when the water around the school
house goes away so that we do not
have to get our feet wet
Spring is here again. Now is the
time we feel more like being out of
| doors than in the school room study
ing. We should have taken the, teach
ers' advice and studied harder while
the cold weather was here. ~
Did you know thas this years bas-
ket ball team has gone to Mortified,
their expenses being paid by the Ath-
letic association?
Evidently many of the students do
not know as much as the teachers
wish they would. .....
Remarkable remarks.
A clever pun.
! Politics, the theme Of the day.. was
being discussed i'm the civics class.
Teacher" care parties: a good
thing p"
-s'Why yes; like to- go to
them"
In the senior English class, Lady
Macbeth's attitude toward her hus-
band was the topic Of conversation.
Teacher Julia, how does Lady
Macbeth treat Macbeth in this scene %
Julia She, talks to him as, if he
were man."
Teacher-'What does she say?''
Julia "Sheo tells him not to make a
fool Of HIMSELF"
A murmur Of dissent was heard
I among the members Of the, class: seat
ed in the back row:
The play given for the benefit of the
high school Athletic association will
soon be ready to be presented to the
public. The basket ball boys have
tried to besfair and: square,. Get behind
with your good word and help, push,
make the play big success, other
towns do; it, why can't Princeton?
Come: on, all ready? Push!
Students self government seems to
be working. out fairly we'll. There are
few persons who seem to, take, adj
vantage of their privileges but on the
whole the students seem to take hold
we'll. The, Students council has met
two or three times to punish offenders.
The students can't get used to not be-
ing watched and, as they say, "When
the cats away the mice will play.' y
But we're going. to stick it out and we
will bring it through.
The seniors: demonstrated their sn-
periority last week on the, basketball
floor by winning from the rest of the
high school by]a score of 18 to II. The
game was fast and close throughout
and furnished good amusement to the
students who we're watching.
