Parent Teacher Activities
at the High SchoOl.

In a short address to the Hi vi
Club, Friday, Miss Burkett, the
Physical Director at the High School,
advocated the establishment of a
cafeteria on the school premises, and
under the auspices of the Parent
Teacher Association, that will afford
Inexpensive and wholesome lunches
for the pupils. Similar undertakings
have met with success elsewhere, and
satisfied recognized physical need
of the pupils. The scheme meets with
the approval of the superintendent,
and is in no sense financial ven
ture, as the charge for the lunches
will only cover the cost of material
and overhead expense.

to any "book larnin'," but managed
to absorb considerable Of the general

his offsprings' education.
After the teacher left Rousy elected

per table one evening he asked Ted,
the nlne-year-old boy, o question, and
received the answer: "Uh-huh.'

The fox nearly always takes his nap ip the open fields along the side of the ridges, or under the mountain, where he can look down upon the busy farms be- meath and hear their many sounds, the barking of dogs the lowing of cattle the cackling of hens. the voices of men and boys, or the sound of travel upo1 the highway. It Is on that side too, that he keeps the sharpest lookout. and the appearance of the hunter above and behind him is always a surprise
 2 Do insects suffer acute pain?
 The higher and more complex the or ganization, the more acute the pleasure and pain A toad has been known to live for days with the upper part of it's head cut away by a scythe, and a beetle wN survive for hours upon the fisherman s hook. It perhaps, causes a grasshopper less pain to detach one of it's legs than it does man to remove a single hair from his beard. Nerves alone feel pain, and the nervous system of beetle IS q very rudimentary affair.
 3. Does an orioles nest protect s~ Soung from the owls?
 Orioles are not necessarily safe even in their strong pendent nests These nests are sometimes plundered at night, doubt less by the little red screech owl. The owl could alight upon the top of the nest and easily thrust his nurderous claw down into it's long pocket and siege the young and draw them forth
