Party.
The juniors were given a real
treat last Wednesday evening when
Mrs. Barratt invited the entire class,
and a few Of its friends, to the Bar
raft home for a Scottish evening. The
class has given several weeks to a
study Of the works of the greatest
Scottish poet, Robert Burns, and all
present we're delighted to hear their
favorite selections sung or recited
with true Scottish accent. Mr.. and
Mrs. Glib were the chief entertain
ers, giving musical selections and
few readings. We persuaded Mrs.
Barratt to read some Of our favorite |
poems, and we certainly enjoyed
them. Margaret Barratt recited a |
poem by more modern Scotch poet, |
and showed that she, too, could read
the dialect. After delicious refresh |
ments of ice cream and waters were
served, we formed circle and with |
hands joined, sang "Auld Lang
Syne." The entire company departed
for home with quaint melodies and
bits of verse lingering in their minds,
feeling that they would be able to
understand Burns and the life he
portrayed, much better after the eve
ming devoted to his works.
After entering our junior civics
classroom Wednesday, Mr.. James
announced that he wanted US all to
60 on picnic Friday if the weather
was good. The class was unanimous
ly in favor. However, as it rained
Friday, the outing was postponed un-
til spring.
AT a student body meeting held
last Wednesday at | o'clock, it was
decided to raise the rest of our
pledge for the Armenian Relief by
free contributions from the students.
Friday was given as the day when all
the money should be in; by Friday
we had enough money to keep an
Armenian child for year and some
over, which, Of course, will also be
sent.
Upon Mr.. Heard's suggestion il
was decided to have the treasurers
books audited once year. A COM
nittee to confer with Mr.. Heard was
appointed to see about the auditingl
Of the books. |.
AT the same meeting ii was decid-
I'd to have a student body picnic if
spring ever came so that we would
nave decent weather for it.
At a junior class meeting held last
Tuesday it was decided to start pre-
oarations for the junior-senior BAN
luet. Committees we're appointed,
and have since been industriouslyiI
making plans for what we hope, will
,e one Of the most successful events
n school history.
Everyone is looking at ANNALS
rom other schools to see if they
,annot get an inspiration for some
hing new to use in the Hehisch.
There was a splendid response
rom the students for the Armenian
Relief fund last week. On Friday
morning only $22 besides the Sl667
rom the smoker had been handed
n. By Friday evening the amount
cached $62o2. This money was
,ut with the SGT which the grades
aised and will be sent to headquar-
ers in Portland this week.
Last week the juniors had the
pleasure of studying the different
inds of government paper money as
civics lesson. Mr.. James made a
objection of all the different speci-
mems and they were viewed by the
lass. Since some of this money was
ontributed by a few of the fortunate
tudents, they were little bit wor-
led as to whether this collection
would be permanent or not.
