High School

A4A6u NSIAVVA
In compliance with the proclamation
Of Mayor Woolverton our local schools
have made an effort to raise some
funds for the Near East Relief work.
At this writing we cannot say how
much our schools have contributed
toward this cause, as the drive was
continued during the first part Of the
week. 49,
Linton has beer allotted $50 worth
of Christmas Seals. These are being
sold through the efforts Of our local
schools. Each Of the grades has been
asked to buy $2sworth Of these stamps
and the High School IS worth. The
remainder will be offered for sale by
Thomas Barger, who was assigned the
territory East Of Main street; Joseph
Bosch, Of the Eighth Grade, for the
territory lying west of Main street
and north Of the court house; Kenneth
Green, for the territory lying west Of
Main street and south Of the court
house; and Frank Chesrown, who will
call at all places Of business. The
amount is comparatively small for a
place the size Of Linton, land we
trust that there will be a prompt and
hearty response. Z
We enjoyed our Thanksgiving vaca-
,tion last Thursday and Friday, and
Monday found our teachers and pupils
with smiling faces. ready for work.
Julia Heisler handed in the greatest
number of perfect copies last week.
Ruth Irvine was a. close second.
Nyla Atha, in . sentence that covered
the entire keyboard, wrote 602 words
in ten minutes, making ten mistakes,
thus leaving her net rate Of so. q.
This is the highest rate attained in
the speed tests by any Of our pupils
this year. Aurelia, Alma and Nyla
are now practicing on the 1nterna-
tional typewriting tests.
Helen Meier, one OF our Freshmen,
spent Thanksgiving in Hague with
her sister.
The Juniors have the highest rank
in attendance for the last six weeks,
having made an average Of a little
above 90 per cent. The Sophomores
have an average of little less than
90 per cent. ;ssss
Third Grade has. the best attendance
for any room or department for the
past six weeks, and 'as such will again
be entitled to the honor penant. !.
The Third Grade reports no cases
of hardness during this last six
weeks The same is true Of the Fourth
and Seventh Grades. :.5- q.
With the exception Of non-membsr-

throughout the grades has been very
