SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
Last Tuesday in English III the
classes wrote themes contrasting
Poe with Irving or Irving with
Poe. We also could write on some
nature adventure if we wished to.
Marilyn Barnes, Frances Parson
and Leila Radtke brought in pic
lures representing waterfowl to
illustrate "To a Waterfowl" by
Irving. Each week we have a
thought from literature put on the
board. This week we have:
"The wind doth wander up and
down
Forever seeking for a crown;
The rose, in stiffness on stem,
Inherits loves own diadem."
BY Nathalia Crane.

We are learning to answer
questions in German, I better
each week. We took up the study
of adjectives and learned how
they are used in German. We
must study our lessons carefully
because we often get quizes in
class for the work that day.

Monday is st. Valentines day
and the German classes will be
j, busy making German valentines.
It's little different than making
English words rhine. These VAL
entine verses will be read in class
that day.
Just because neither of the two
senior reporters take physics we
have forgotten to write it up. So
here goes a big column on it to
make up for the first six months.
Films have been used in class
work. Some do not parallel the
topic in class as they are borrow
ed from other departments. Heat
is the unit now being studied. The
films were on oxy-acetylene
torches, its construction and also
uses. In connection with this Mr..
Tom borrowed Mr.. Braker'S
classroom and demonstrated the
two uses of the torch welding and
cutting. Some of the units had
this year were: mechanics of
solids and mechanics of fluids.
JUNIOR HIGH NEWS
The seven A grade gave a skit
last Friday, February 4, of a bull
fight between Senior Redwood and
the "The Bull Glencoe" It was
a great fight while it lasted and
we thought that Redwood would
lose a few times, because Senior
would always bow to his LADY
Love-Senorita," in the audience,
and the bull would push him and
bunt him. At last Senior took the
Bull by the neck, twisted it and
over fell the Bull. Senorita Vic
tory came running upon the stage,
took Senor's hand and walked
very victorious off the stage. The
characters were Senorita Victory,
Phyllis Rudberg; Senior Redwood,
Maurice Katzenberger; and the
Bull, Floyd Henderickson and
Harold Cuff. We all hoped the
game would turn out like that
event did.
When February came, Miss
Aske decided to have new Dor
der for the assembly. Mary Kath-
eryn Schottenbauer, Shirley
Mansfeldt and June Waller did
the work. 1t is a very attractive
border of log cabins, hatchets and
silhouette of George Washing
ton done in two shades of brown
and red.
Miss Aske: Pupils, I'm sure you
realize the amount of iron in spin
ach. That is why your mother
makes you eat it.
Henry Nupson: I'd rather have
canned spinach than home grown
cause it has more tin in it.
