HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

With the beginning of school
Monday, after a vaction of two
weeks, the year 1924 really began
for the high school pupil. Mr..
Kracht suggested that we add
two more resolutions to those all
ready made, namely: to avoid be-
ing tardy for the rest of the year
and to establish better school
spirit. An example of the lack of
school spirit was shown at the
last basket ball game played here
between the Alumni and the
high school. There were about ten
students yelling, the rest sat up
in the balcony evidently afraid to
move. Some of the students are
of the opinion that if they get out
on the floor and do a little cheer
ing some one will criticize them
and their reputation will be ruin
ed. There are a few people who
criticize-but who are they? Not
people who have graduated from
the high or who have children at
tending school,; they are the orig
inal old fault finders. And say
girls and boys, you who sit in the
balcony and let the rest do the
boosting, what is the matter? A
little spirited shouting won muss
up your clothes or spoil your com
plexion. Come on down and join
the merrymakers. Maybe it does
MT seem ladylike and dignified to
show your feelings so plainly by
yelling, but is it showing good
school spirit to sit apart from
your school mates and Let George
do it,?
Our enrolment at the begin
ming of the year totalled 1872 but
a number of Withdrawals has
brought the number down to ia
The following pupils have with
drawn: Leonard Jahnsen, Floyd
Pjankuck, Lyla Byram, Paschal
Jones, Clyde Gallun, Charles Dot
son, Gerda Anderson and Martha
Petrozoderates.
A short mass meeting was held
Monday morning and an account
of the Wittenberg basket ball
game given. The boys seem to
have had good time, Judging
from the reports, and gave the
fans of Wittenberg good game.
The score was Is and 10 in favor
of Eagle River.
Would our marks be any higher?
Would the failures be some less?
