Returning Partners Lead.

All, no, my friends! There are nu-

PUBLIC SPEAKING CLASS.

For the past two weeks Miss Witt has
conducted public speaking course in
her English VI class. This work has
been rfSst interesting and enjoyable,
not only to the English students but to
the school in general as number of
class recitations were held in assem-
blies. There has been a great deal of
good work shown and much talent for
good speakers has been uncovered by
this work Did you know that Harry
Fem was a celebrated talker2 Believe
it or not he is. He seems to have
a bashful air; but when he gets up to
give speech, it always turns out to
be interesting and well given Donald
Olson seems to be the humorist Of the
crowd. His talks would draw laughs
from the soberest. Is Margaret Weller
good toastnistress2 We all learned
through this public speaking work that
she is. ! think that the Senior English
class will tell you that Margaret Is
one of the best as toastmistress.
During this work Miss Wits class
and one of Miss Barnes's Senior Eng
lish classes have entertained each other
by giving program of speeches, poems,
and funny stories. BY far the most
humorous speaker of the Senior Eng
lish class is Bobby Hanson In fact, he
was SO funny that he could not keep
from laughing at himself, Tor was it at
Turk that he was laughing?) The school
should see about making rubber stairs
for Bobby to walk on, he seems to have
quite bit of trouble on the usual
kind.
The gratifying feature of this public
speaking course is the fact that many
people who heretofore suffered trepida-
tons when called upon, now exhibit a
poise and assurance which is INDEED
remarkable.
