HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The Civics class visited a session
of court Monday afternoon and saw
a man nsturalized. They decided it
was a good thing they were all natu-
raj born citizens because if they were
not they would not stand much chance
of ever becoming citizens.
The Juniors held a cooked food
sale last Saturday to replenish their
slim treasury.
If you attend the grade operetta
December %, you will be convinced
beyond doubt that sun bonnets are
very becoming and should be un-
versally adopted for women's head
gear.
The debate tryout which was post
poned last week is likely to be held
the last part of this week.
REID BUSEICK FOUND GUILTY
In the Civies court, Reid Buseick
was found guilty of manufacturing
and selling intoxicating liquors and
was fined $500 by Judge Cason. By
an expert chemist the moonshine
was found to contain per cent alco-
hol If not larger percentage. The
jury was out but short time and
returned the unanimous verdict of
guilty. Attorney Mahoney, lawyer
for the defense, announced that the
case would be appealed Immediately.
The social problems class has just
had debate on the open-shop ques-
tion which was very interesting and
well presented.
Last week the civics class made
cartoons depicting current events
which they had studied in the Liter
AIRY Digest. Some of them were very
creditable but others had to have
everything in them plainly labeled
for the benefit of spectators, Not
every one is gifted along lines of art
istry.
The Doughnut League basketball
games which have been scheduled
for every evening when those trying
out for the first team don't practice
have been exceptionally interesting.
The cold weather doesn't seem to dam
pen the ardor of the basketball en-
thusiasts in the least. The Junior
girls hold the record so far, having
won all the games they have played
Mrs. Tom Johnson, county health
nurse, has just completed her month
ly survey Of the grades. The school
is rapidly progressing toward per-
feet health thru Mrs. Johnson's eff
ficient work,
The yell contest closed last We'd

last two weeks, but perhaps that is
due to the fact that cold weather has
frozen the many master minds of
the high school.

quently to be found in real life. If
you wish to see typical one, just
attend the grade operetta, "The Trial
Of Santa Claus"
TIE old howl for jokes for the
"Hehisch" has begun again. 1t comes
just as regularly each year as do the
semester exams and six weeks quizs.
The dress forms which the domes-
tic art class have been making are
now completed. This is an interest
ing feature of the sewing class
which has been introduced for the
first time. this year.
Those looks of deep thought which
are seen on the faces of the high
school pupils are due to the fact that
they are trying to conjure up some
thing brilliant for their class stunt
for the afternoon of December %.
From the inspirations we hear of the
stunts ought to be dramatic marvels.
If the Freshmen don't hurry up and
get their pennant up we are afraid
it will turn yellow from disuse. Per-
haps they don't have any men large
and powerful enough to put it up, or
maybe that slivery pole is too much
for them.
The first basketball game of the
season VIII be played Saturday night
December, 16, with Irrigon.
If the Christmas vacation doesn't
hurry up and get here there is danger
of much illness from over-work.
The mental strain (?) is beginning
to tell on the Freshmen as is apparent
by their pale and haggard looks
from too much burning Of the mid
night oil.
The Hehisch staff met Wednesday
night for work on the annual. All
material on events up to this time
has to be handed in this week. The
usual last-of-the-year rush is going
to be avoided this year If possible.
