to have meetings as soon as all the
members that have joined pay their
dues. I know Mr.. Toftness wants
this society to be a success so
please kids" pay your dues.
Although there has been a sew
ere snowstorm the Modern History
classes have been studying the 10th
century Nationalism which appear
ed to be a very interesting sub
ject. There were many brilliant
personalities which dominate the
history Of this country.
The Latin II classes have been
progressing in their work wonder
fully. They liked the story about
The War with the Helvetians very
well and tried very hard to get
good marks on their report cards
this last six weeks.
I think the American History
classes have been working quite
hard since they have had classes
in their new schoolroom. But /
can also tell you that they have
been having their share of fun ev-
en- though they accomplish their
share of work. They completed
the two units Nations at Dead
Center" and I'VE Enter A New
Era" in the last two weeks. They
have also handed in some very in
teresting projects for A and B
work. Two students have handed
in a large map Of the United States
showing the slave states, free
states, and seceeded states. Also
the places of the important battles
of the Civil War have been placed
on this map. These two students
worked very well together on this
map and know they deserve credit
for it. Another person has handed
in an essay on Abraham Lincoln.
I know this student put in plenty
Of time to make the essay so in
teresting.
Easter is coming and so the last
issue Of the "Schoolmaster" of this
year will be coming out about
March 81.
HUME ECONOmlSS
AS you recall, your reporter men
toned some secret plan the tenth
graders were to carry out last week.
Just what that plan was however,
we were unable to say-then. Since
It is over-even the shouting-I will
say the faculty was entertained at
Saint Patrick tea or party" If
you prefer to call it that.
Anyway what I'm trying to get
at is this. They were invited to
partake Of coffee, ice cream and
cake in the home economic dining
room. The sad part Of it is that
I-yes, I missed out again! But
I really didn't mind it so much
even when-when a dozen hungry
boys beat me to it-because those
boys were the Champs; and since
the Champs belong to my Gang"
it's alright with me. ...
