SPRING FEVER
BY Ernest Stewart


Like ether, spring fever is very
hard to define Like all other ilness-
es it has a cause, and perhaps an eff
feet. Teachers who look at US every
day are able to detect it in US, be-
cause somehow we seem to SLOUGH in
our seats a little more, keep our eyes
only half open and have a general
half-hearted attitude towards our
work. The alert pupil can see that
the teacher may be afflicted also be-
cause there may be greater tendency
to dreaming on her part too.
Spring fever might be lessened if
people would only watch their diet.
In winter heavier foods and more of
it are necessary to keep the body fit,
but when the warmer weather comes
a person srould quit, and thus make
his system more able to cope with the
change. Of course this is the season
of the year when every one is more
or less tired of school and it becomes
more difficult every day to be inter
ested in what is going on inside the
school house. The great outdoors has
a fascinating call and we longingly
wait for o'clock when we can be
outside. I believe we can overcome il
somewhat by getting more sleep, ia
king plenty of exercise and using ou1
will power to such an extent that oul
work does not become a drudgery but
pleasure. cit is all in the frame Of
mind" as our teachers tell us.

Intensive prA :tice on the operetta:

the cast, together with The coach,
Miss Kimball. The operetta IS laid IN
England-the first act in a gypsy
camp and the last two in the home Of
the English lord, Sir David Marten-
dale. Several novelty dances give IN
terest to the musical comedy. The
costuming is beautiful and approprl-
ate, being fashioned for the present
rather than the past. No one should
miss this operetta on Friday evening,
April 9Th.
The P. T. A. met Monday evening.
There was large attendance anc we
hope it will continue as it serves as an
indication of greater interest IN our
schools. The program included an in
teresting and original dramatlzatlon
of a story by the second grade. A
group of pupils from the second grade
sang a song, We've got the Mumps,"
which proved TO be very entertaining.
Pupils from the sixth grade display
ed some extraordinary work in the
two songs sung. Especially the first
number which was sung in three parts
was a credit to any school and any
teacher. Few of our people truly re-
alize the accomplishment made when
pupils of that age are able to sing IN
even two parts, let alone three. Miss
Haugen has done remarkable work IN
music in the grades and it has been
displayed at P. T. AS. during the
year. Music in the grades is going to
be an asset to a student boiy which
It is difficult to estimate as yet. Mu-
sic appreciation and skill III later mu-
sic will be largely improved by the
training being received now. The pro'

 It was trouble with his eyes which led this slender, curly headed, blue eyed youngstor 10 conceive the idea of combining tn" best qualities of airplanes and ships into a single craft.

Poor sight prevented him from ob- taining a tiier's license, so h. looked for other worlds to conquer Yhon lt was that he hit upon tho plan throlgh which he confidently expects to revolutionze transatlantic travel. Gradually during recent weeks the strange craft of his dreams has talk en shape at Butts Shipyard here, and a month hence, if all goes we'll 1t will be christened and launched,
 Months Test plannc!
 A month devoted to short test cruisers in local waters, another month of trial runs along the Flor ida coast, and then the youthful skipper plans to strike out from Norfolk. Va, or some nearby port and speed across the sea on his great adventure.
 Three days later, or th"roahoUts, he expects to reach the coast Of Eng land or France. having approXi- mately duplicated the transatlantic record of the dirigiblc Graf Zeppe- . lin.
 While Dudley's craft would be list ed in the general class of hydro- gliders, it embraces many novel feature. A thumbnal sketch of it follows:
 Length-40 feet
 Wingspread-42 feet
 Power-Two 450 II. r. motors anc one 200 H. r. motor.

Sofia. Sept. 13 CPp--A glut of "in- tclIoctuaIs" in Bulgaria is giving serious concern to the government
 Although Bulgaria is proud Of the fact that only per cent of her total population is illiterato, the government is puzzled with the large number of promising youths graduated each year from tn" country's colleges.

Gustaf Stresemann, German foreign min ister, told the creditor powers that Germany should not pay the cost of their failure to agree on the Young plan.

 Hopes of saving the conference faded further into the background when Italy informed Great Britain that no Italian reparations conces- sions were possible.
