The Sauk Centre herald., 1938-12-22

a dollar or q dime? The signifi-
cant factor Is the feeling we give
with out gift. Jewels, costly clothes
and riches have their worth, but
health, happiness, and the friend
ship Of our neighbors are far more
important.
My wish is that everyone may
spend a Merry Christmas, and that
the coming year will bring the
greatest happiness.

SPORTS
As one spectator said after the
game Friday night, 1T was a good
game to win or q good game to
lose" But win or lose 1t had moth
ing to do with the kind of ball the
Sauk Centre quint played against
South High. Each fellow played
such good ball that 1t is hard to sim
gle out any one prayer for indiv-
idual performance. But 1t was a
game that surpassed all the ex-
pectations Of the fans besides be-
ing about the best ball game Sauk
Centre has seen in many a moon.
After watching practice or two
it's easy to see why Toftness gets
results with his team. He gives a
pretty well rounded diet standing
first with shooting and practicing
free throws, then comes drill in
defense and offense and then scrim-
mage. loft drives pretty hard on
scrimmage and the regulars have
to pot out plenty Of effort to stay
ahead Of that second team. Also
the spirit ana cooperation, which
is essential to make q ball club, Is
never lacking whether 1t be prac-
tice game or otherwise. The fell
lows are trying hard to keep the
training rules that Toftness has
set up.
The skating rink was finally COM
pleted on the playground and last
week hockey sticks and flashing
blades came into action.
THIS N THAT ABOUT THE
SENIOR Hi
At 2:15 Friday afternoon, classes
were stopped and the pupils en-
Enthusiastically joined in the songs
and yells at the pep fest. Everyone
enjoyed the piano solos played by
Superintendent Kohl. In short:
"A merry time was had by ALL"
The assembly in the senior high
was very nicely decorated in blue
and silver by committee. Those
who made up this committee were
Joan LUX, Lucille Stegner, Patricia
Leonard, Ruth Westhoff, and Cath
crime Hansen. Bernice Boyer drew
picture Of Santa Claus on the
front board, using as background
a fireplace and a tree. To add a
romantic touch to the decorations,
misletoe was hung over the assem-
bly, doors. Christmas carols will
be sung every morning from $3.50
until 9:15. Mr.. Kohl will lead
these carols.
SENIOR HI CLASSES
AS we take a glance into Miss
Robertson's chemistry classes we
find that they are very busy ex-
perimenting with sulphur and try
ing to get all Of this done before
we move out Of the building. Her
algebra classes are also working
hard on their factoring problems.
They thought that they were rath-
er hard at first but after working
a few they find that they are get
ting easier.
The Christmas spirit has gotten
into all Of us in the Senior High
and in response to requests by stu
dents Miss Wilson has had her
room decorated. Some Of the other
teachers have also had their rooms
decorated.
Miss Ranstad's World History

made about some character studied

answer was to be given. One of
the students given was II am a
peasant girl who rescued France
