PEPI1MlSTlC PARAGRAPHS
When we got back to school Monday
morning u room was spic and span.
Mr.. Carrier, u j%anitor, had scrubbed
and cleaned it all up. While Vernon
johnson and Gordon Barr were after
our alligator they got their feet
muddy which tracked the room up
with foot prints. They afterwards
cleaned the floor with mops. I sup
pose that Vernon lost five pounds
more, of fat.
We have in u grade a new pupil
who came all the way from New Or
leans in a mail pouch. He is a baby
alligator and we call him Tim because
that is the second syllable in our
name, Peptimists. He seems to be in
terested in what is going IN. He puts
his head up over the edge of the box
as if he wanted to learn something.
He is about ID inches long.
Etow must be worried about his in
vestment in stocks because when he
was up at Hinsdale with the Scout
basketball team Joe Brown said he
was talking about stocks in his sleep.
Willard Stensland.
Last week Mr.. Williams gave us
scientific tests in oral reading, and
this week he gave us silent reading
tests. The last test was lots of fun.
Do come and see DR.. Milkbottle in
our Health Play.
A Accommodating party has been or
ganized which hold their session in
the cloak room. The members are
pupils who know nothing about their
lessons that day. Their colors are
green and blue as the former colcr
makes them the latter. Their motto
must be, 81 don't know, because it
seems to be their favorite expression.

A live alligator has been sent to the
Peptimists by Miss Florence Oster-

The Peptimists are rather ashamed

belong.-Gwendolyn Lyle.
