School Notes


made. The curve this past semester
is very satisfactory and is almost
ideal in its symmetry. The percent
age of the various marks given is
rather interesting. The percentage
follows: A-6 per cent; B-22 per
cent; C-35 per cent; DPS per cent;
E-7 per cent. + is the grade for
failure and all the other markings
are passing marks. The honors for
scholarship for the semester just past
90 TO the seniors with the sophomores
second and the Juniors and freshmen
third and last, respectively. The
ranking should be in the natural Sc
quence of the classes, but the juniors
seem to be too slow for their juniors.
Friday noon in the regular chapel
period, one of the French classes un-
der the direction of Miss Mckenzie,
presented a one act French play. The
play was given in French and is en-
titled LA Surprise d Isidore." Parts
were taken by Woodburn Lamb,
Grant Cooper, Dorothy Allen, Alice
Coline and Lucille Williams, and
each part was taken quite creditably.
Vesta Ellicott gave a short resume of
the play so that the students who
not proficient in the language could
could understand the presentation.
Prior to the play Tell Smith sang
La Marcelais."
The first inter mural girls basket
ball game resulted in victory for
the Juniors. The game was played on
Friday afternoon and the seniors
were pretty well trimmed. The final
score was "a to ii. The Juniors kept
the same team on the floor during
the entire contest while the seniors
used two entire teams. Miss Hood
referred the game.
On Wednesday evening the three
Campfire groups entertained the new
Freshman girls. The purpose Of the
party was to get acquainted with the
new girls and TO make these Frosh
familiar with the work carried on by
he Campfire girls in the school. The
three groups certainly make them
elves known about the institution.

he groups sell candy in the halls and
)ut the proceeds in a camping fund
,, md aid in school affairs generally.
During the usual chorus period on
Monday Mr. Shouffler gave a little

age sayings.
