SENIOR HIGH NEWS
Last Friday, February %, the
Johnson Brothers gave a very in
teresting lyceum. It dealt with
snakes and spiders, mostly the tar
antula- The tarantula, Mr.. Johnson
said, is very interesting pet. He
is not, as most people think, deadly
poisonous. In fact, his bite Is no
more dangerous that a bee sting.
A spider of this type bites, he said,
only when he is hurt by you. He
even gave specific directions for
the care of one as a pet. So, If any
student comes to a grocery store
in search of one, the grocer should
not become alarmed. It's just sim
cere student following Mr.. john
sons advice.
The Johnson Brothers had won
derful display of snakes also
Three of our brave fellow citizens
went up and learned the technique
of handling them. It's wonderful
orin fhnxr h1rf

that matter.
Everyone profited immensely by
this excellent lyceum, and hope
again to have the Johnson Broth
ers in Sauk Centre.
