HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Owing to the fact that the Basket
Ball boys have no place to practice,
they are keeping up by taking running
exercise every night after school.
Miss Christman, the County Nurse
has been giving physical examinations
to the high school students in the
past few days. Some of the students
are over weight owing to the fact
that they have so many brains. That
is not saying that the lightweights
lack mental ability. If the students
take Miss Christman's advice we will
all be physically fit before this semes-
| ter is over.
In place of singing for opening exer-
cises on Tuesday and Thursday re-
toricals will be given. The following
numbers were given Tuesday.
