It's no joke to run a boarding
house." unused Rover as he applied his
paw vigorously to pest-infested ear.
According to the faculty, all that
some o. FL. S. girls know well how to
do is to chew gum and WELD the cha
mois skin.
Last years graduating class left the
seniors of 1923 the key to knowledge,
but after giving current grades the
"once over" it would seem that the
lock binding American history is
lit rusted.
If you asked the dad of an o. II. S.
fapper just after he'd paid the
raonth's bill for toilet articles, he'd
tell you it takes more than the Gus
tomary "Rag, bone, and a hank of
hair"
Of course you've heard of fields of
cotton and cotton patches, but did you
know the o. H. S. has "Cotton Pas
ture" (Pasteur?) However, that fact
will probably have little effect on the
cotton market for about the only
thing to be picked from our Pasture
is a fight.
The Barlow eleven won an easy As
to 0 victory over Orlando. Ocala play
Ell Orlando on the latter's home field
and when the referee blew the final
notes on his borrowed police whistle,
neither side had scored. The o. Fl. S.
terminates her 1922 schedule with
Barlow Nov. 80, in Ocala. The out
come of the two first mentioned games
shows that we must work and work
hard if the hopes we entertain of win
ming victory over Barlow are to be
realized. A number of our best men
were kept out of the Orlando game on
account of poor school work. This
weakened our team, not only by the
absence of the men themselves but it
upset and demoralized the other
players, thus saving Orlando. 1t is
rot yet too late to clear up poor re-
cords but whether they will be cleared
up and kept so lies entirely with the
ren. A winning team depends almost
as much upon work in the class rooms
as on the football field. All together,
folks, let's fight for the honor and
glory of the o. a. S. and give old Bar
tow and the rest surprise!

but how many ever troubled your.
selves to look up in the encyclopedias
the history of Halloween. Halloween
or the eve of October 81, seems orig

Hallows, festival of all saints, whiel
was the first of November. In Roman
II Catholic lands, Halloween is the oc
casion for visiting cemeteries an,
leaving flowers on the graves o
friends and relatives. In England an,
Scotland it was long given to firesid
gatherings and divination Of the fu

reached that stage of evolution whel
