Class-A cot bed for the freshman
seniors.
Since the physics students have fin
ished slight" their brightness has dis
appeared.
The high school girls have devised
a new method of keeping warm on
cool days; they play tag.
The seniors have completed their
orations, and are now beginning to
commit them to memory.
The sophomore damsels are very
liberal with their Judges. If you
want some, boys, just smile on orc
of the 1920 girls.
The sixth grade is steadily climbing
to the top rung with it's debates. The
high school pupils had better look out
for their laurels.
A beautiful little calla-lily, which
Miss Smiths smiles brought to per-
lection, has adorned the desk in the
main room all this week.
One of the senior girls has pre-
scented Miss Smith with two pretty
new geraniums, a red one and white
one. Red and white are the senior
class colors.
When the seniors go, what will they
leave behind as a suitable memento
A certain sophomore lad has sug-
gested a cot. Are there any other
suggestions?
The botany students are becoming
very studious and ambitious; they are
so interested in natures beauties that
they go to the woods every evening,
rain or shine.
The freshman class are seriously
discussing the wisdom of purchasing
few rattles and rag-dolls; there are
two members of the class who seem to
be always getting into mischief.
The sophomore boys have several
ways of combing their hair. Some part
it in the middle, just like the dear
little girls; while others have a little
braid of hair hanging down over the
forehead, just like the forelock of the
old family horse.
At the declamatory contest last eve
ming, Miss Mabel Potter, of Wauwa-
tosa, won first place with the selec-
ton, Patsy. Miss Grace Brent, of
Oconomowoc, received second place,
reciting "Knee-Deep in June" little
Charlie" recited by Miss Alice Smith,
of Wauwatosa, received third place.
This decision gives Wauwatosa four
points and Oconomowoc two.
