SECOND GRADE ROOM
December 22nd Notes

December 22nd Notes
 On the Friday morning before school closed for the holidays we fin ished our Christmas booklets, putting in some of our best papers and tying them neatly with little ribbons that we brought from home. Some of the booklets were fine and plump be- cause their owners had so many one hundred per cent papers to put into them.
 We had a pretty border around the room above all the blackboards. It was made of little Christmas trees and red bells cut from construction paper. The red and green chains we made the middle so that they looked like sash curtains. Others were hung in straight strips from the top of the double doorway, making bright DOT tiers. A big fireplace was drawn on the board and from it's top we hung little paper stockings. We had sev- eral good Christmas pictures for study, and the children were much interested in them as we developed the Christmas Story" Julia brought a Victrola record, Silent Night" which we enjoyed hearing on Thurs day,
 On Friday afternoon we read some Christmas stories and poems. Then the record graders visited in the third grade room. When they returned they had a lively candy and peanut hunt. The winners in the game were Clara Olson and John De Leo.
 We were glad to have the third grade boys and girls with us for games, lunch and Christmas tree.
 We had some exciting peanut relay races. Later we sang some Christmas songs. Just as we were singing "Jingle Bells" in came Santa Claus looking as hale and jolly as ever! He was given most hearty welcome. He lighted the candles on our tree for us! We lowered the blinds and then sat still for a while to look at the tree which we all thought very pretty. Then Santa passed off ever so many presents; but he could not stay for lunch as he still had much to do. But all the rest of us had delicious "party." We wish to thank those parents who so generously helped with the lunch, sending great boxes of fine cookies, sandwiches, cakes and candy.
 Mrs. Braxton was a visitor this week.

STAGE COMEBACK

Tied" Meredith. worlds record
holder for the quarter and half mile
runs and winner Of the 500 meter
championship at the Stockholm olym-
pics in 1912. says there is no truth in
the report that he has started training
with the idea Of trying for a place on
the American Olympic team of next
year.
The former University Of Pennsyl.
vania star has not run a race since
the Antwerp Olympics three years ago.
He was seen working out on the uni
yersity of Pennsylvania track recently
and the rumor was Immediately circu-
lated that he was going to attempt a
comeback"
When Hugh Hirshon. chairman OF
the wllco a. A. games committee,
heard the report, no communicated
with the former olympic champion and
invited him to compete at the Wilco
games in tho Yankee stadium on
Sept. s.
Chairman Hirshon received a reply
from Meredith in which he says he
will not try and come back" and
that tho running that he has been
doing OF late has been indudged in
merely to keep his weight down.

FIRP0 A DRUG CLERK

An enthusiastic doctor OF pharmacy
invites attention to the fact that Luis
Angel Ffrpo, who recently knocked
out the aged Jess Willard, is n phar-
macist and hat before he felt the call
of the roped arena and the cash regis
ter he used to pound pills.
The pharmacists naturally are very
much excited over the chances of
Senior Luis Angel Firpo and should
he ever win the heavyweight cham
plonship the drug clerks all over the
world will be expanding their chests.
Efrpo is the first pugilist OF any
note that the profession of pharmacy
has produced. There was a great poet
once who came from hat profession.
But naturally the modern pharma-
cists are not wildly excited over n poet.
though his name will be in the IL
braries long after the name of Luis
Angel B1rpo will occupy Just a little
space in the record book
Poets and Boxers.
The time was when the poets and
the giadiators were equally badly paid.
but this defect has beer remedied in
the case of tho gladiators. Also in the
matter OF public appreciation the gladi-

Y when lakes are set back in the
wilderness with no boats deco
rating the shore line the appeal is
especially strong. At least, that's the
way 1t is with us, and recently we
have been plowin' through the brush
to wet a line and take on a few fish
hat do not seem to be acquainted
with all the latest lures.
In the Wisconsin, Michigan boundary
line country west Of State Line. Wis.
there are plenty Of little lakes. set
down In the heart of deep forests.
where a fellow can fish. A number
OF them are unnamed and do not mp
pear on the maps. It's a regular cir
u for us to put n canoe on a little
truck, ride a few miles on the high
way, then luck into the timber with
the canoe and launch It on some little
body Of water that just seems to be
Whiting for some one to appreciate It.
However, some of these boatless and
practically unlshed lakes are right
close to the road. We were on one
the other day when the cars were
spinning by. but wen wager no one
ever thinks of the fine bass Il that
lake. And It is full Of bass. as well
as a variety OF pan fishes. We saw
bthOO dLltE bNAOOl vi Ills IN lno
clear water and a few found their way
to the frying pan. As far as we can
learn. this body OF water which we
lshed hasn't a name. even though It
ia pretty enough and la fish enough
to deserve one.
West of State Line along the road
hat serves one or two resorts in this
section there are a number of these
small lakes which rarely see n canoe
or n boat. And talk about a beauti-
full drivel Why. from the railroad sta
ton it's a wilderness ride for a fare
theewell. twisting and turning through
the forest. and then as you round a
curve in the road you come upon one
OF these little lakes with pines crowd
ing to the edge Of the water. Yes,
sir. even II a fellow didn't get a fish
the ride in here would be worth the
trouble.
1t is always interesting to see what
lures the fish in these small lakes will
take. Sometimes they will hit any
thing. Then again live bait Is the
only thing. Yesterday a couple OF
fellows made a killing on big mouth
bass by using worms and canned
minnows. half still fishing and half
trolling with them. They got a fine
string Of big mouth bass from a lake
that covered Just about three acres.
One Of the string weighed better than
three pounds. Live frogs are the
berries sometimes. On Anderson lake,
which is a deep body OF water, live
frogs seem to be the best lure going
to get the big bass. But, as a rule,
IL o have a variety OF weighted flies
and a bottle Of pork strips you can
hook all the fish o want.
Last week the boundary line country
was simply flooded by heavy rains.
which brought the trout streams way
up and temporarily put the kibosh
on that sport. But the bass fishermen
didn't seem to mind It much. They
would &c put after the rain and moro
than wallop the fish. Anyway, a rainy
day in camp is desirable every once
in a while. Gives n fellow time to dc
a little tinkering with his tackle. work
he wouldn't do when the sun is shin
ing and the lake is inviting for a
trip.
