December %. The Seniors gave the
rest Of the High School q party at the
school house. A short program was
given in the assembly, selections were
given by the orchestra and glee clubs
after which a stunt was put on by
each respective class. Santa then led
the boys and girls TO the gym where
gifts were distributed from the heav-
lily loaded tree. Some were nice, 9TH
ers lovely, a few were funny, and the
rest were -? A light lunch was
served after which we babe a sad
adieu to the teachers for two weeks.
January 8. School was resumed af-
ter a two weeks vacation. We all
came back; some ready to take up
their work again, others to just be-
gin and still others to begin in earn
est for the rest Of the season.
january 1920. We are having Sc
mester Exams and IL you had heard
the signs, seen the down-cast faces
OF some and the look of those lucky
enough to be exempt you might have
guessed something was up. The fol-
lowing describes the students as a
whole:
Some have pep;
Some have none;
Some have funk marks;
Some chew gum;
Some are pleased with the work
they've done.
Some are glad the hours slip by;
Some of as are careful;
Some are cheerful, yet
Some are fearful;
But we of this High School
Can surely say
IL not now, in future days
We wish we had some more High
School days.
January 23. Today is the beginning
of the Second Semester. We sincerely
wish the best there is to those who
took exams, and we hope they will
begin with a stronger spirit and go
over the top even farther than they
did the past half year. We are proud
OF our Hi and We want TO see the
years turn and some mighty fine class
es. Some are changing their courses
this semester, others are taking an
extra subject while others are drop
ping a subject. In order to take n
9Th subject Mr.. Cooper has set a
standard that n must have at least
an average of G before he can take up
d 9Th subject. Also he has set the
standard that every one wishing 10
graduate must have at least IL full
credits at the end Of the Junior year.
Mr.. Cooper is doing his best for the
welfare of our Hi and we owe a good
deal to him for what we nave been
able to accomplish. May he be with
us for a number Of years to come.
