Another week has rolled by and
I'll start right off with German l.
The pupils in German I class were
having little quiz. They were
supposed to tell whether "nuSS'
was masculine or feminine. Most
of the girls put down masculine
and most of the boys, feminine.
When it came to correcting the
papers it was found out to be that
'nuss'' was feminine. Now "nuss"
in German means nuts" in Eng
liSh.
School dances began with the
first one last Saturday evening.
Music was furnished by the high
school orchestra, MIR. Limburg,

Dorothy Olson, Harold Edwards,

about the newspaper. We were
told, after studying about them,
to write feature story, and we
did so. Upon coming to class the
next day few of us were asked
to read ours. Miss Myhre called
upon George Barnes, and being a
bashful boy, he was reluctant to
read his. He gave Miss Myhre a
meaning look and she replied by
saying, eff looks could kill, I'm
afraid I'd be dead" One of these
feature stories was about a boy
three and one-half years of age.
He was sitting on his big brothers
| lap in the streetcar when he spied
a rather large lady standing. He
jumped from his brothers lap and
said, "Pll let you have my seat"
Poor big brother. The title of this
story was Unexpected Happen
ing In Life" The class was told
to suggest some better titles and
here are few of the best and
funniest of them: Funny but
Tragic for Brother" "Three and
One-half Year Old A Perfect
Gentleman Infants Manners
Get Older Brother In JAM"
"Oops! Sorry Mister" "Childs
