The Freshmen class are intending
to hold a Halloween party in the H.
S. auditorium on Friday the twenty
eighth of this month.
The Senior class is planning to

S. auditorium Oct. 20.
At class meeting held Oct. 20
the Juniors decided to unite with
the Seniors and give spread in the
III. s. auditorium to celebrate our
victory over Roseville High basket
ball team on that night.
The high school students were
greatly disappointed when they dis
covered that chapel had been post
poned from Wednesday morning un-
til Thursday. However, they felt
amply repaid when just before the
chapel period, Thursday, Oct. 20.
they heard melodious strains issu.
ing from the auditorium. Upon en-
tering the auditorium the source of
the music was revealed. It was the
M. & M. orchestra, which has been
progressing very rapidly under the
leadership of Miss Lane of Zanes-
vile and Mr.. Bishop.
Another enjoyable feature of the
chapel period was an address given
by Mr.. Landsittle, H. S. inspector,
from the State Department of Edu-
cation. He said that the four years
spent in high school are the most
enjoyable in whole lifetime and
that high school students may think
now that they will be glad when
they finish school, but when the
time comes they will not be so pleas
ed, as. it is then that they will real
ize what it has all meant to them.
The teacher should not try to pre-
vent harmless fun and a good time.

proper way. Fun" he said, 'Ts just
as necessary as work"
