was gaily bedecked with newspaper
streamers making a fitting back
ground for the ninth grade hard
time frolic. A grand march open
ed the evenings entertainment.
During this, the prize winning cos
TUNES worn by Shirley Paske and
Gerald Gartner were selected. The
Bar Room Quintet composed of
John Kleinschmidt, Howard John
son, Donald Olson, Warren Jeffries
and Roland Botz, director, dedicat-
ed few special numbers to the
members of the faculty. Next on
the program was a suitcase race
requiring six boys to race the
length of the floor, put on the
clothing contained in the suitcase
and race back. This was very
humorous as some Of the articles
of clothing were wooden shoes and
ladies dresses. Following this came
the Hard Time Sweepstakes where
five donkeys: Down and Out, De-
preston, Last Stand, Hard Times
and Bread Line, raced on the floor.
Three boys shook dice Of different
colors to see which donkey should
move. The race ended in Depres-
sion coming in first and all his
rooters received noise makers. At
ten-thirty a very enjoyable lunch
was served and the hard timers"
departed for home.
JUNIOR HIGH CLASSES
This time we will give Miss Ellis
first place on our list as I sort Of
sighted her last time. She tells
me that Dick Berggreen has been
doing some experimental work at
home. He has proven to the salts
faction Of himself and others that
soil has air in it. Air is the topic
Of discussion this week in Miss
Ellis classes, and when she asked
them what color air was, what it
felt like, and its odor, they were
stumped. Her Geography classes
are studying Africa, which you
could readily see by their descrip-
tive bulletin board.
Mr.. Rasmussen has given the
final test on Food and in which
Aileen Edoff and Gloria Rosen-
wald received an "a" His related
Science classes are still studying
light.
And now Mr.. Clough, who is still
practicing First Aid. His pupils
are going to give a practical DEM
onstration in first aid next week.
I think I'll try and secure tickets
for the first performance. His his
tory classes are on the study Of
Westward Expansion and the Ter
ritorial government Of Minnesota.
Miss Swope informs me that her
eighth grade is studying myths and
legends. Most Of their myths are
about American Indians of which
there are many (the legends I
Her eighth grade is study
ing all about pronouns, of which
we know all about, don't we eighth
graders? Last week they went to
the Library on the day the art
exhibit was being held. 1t was
something unusual and they all
enjoyed it very much.
I noticed on the bulletin board in
Mr.. Knutson's room that a test
has been given (you know one of
those things that shows you that
you really don't know as much as
you thought you did). Well, in this
test though, Vivian Secoy and Shir-
ley Paske got CAS-, so it couldn't
have been impossible. Phyllis Brann
has been bringing in some very
rare old coins, one of which is a
fourth century Madagascar, which
Is, in my estimation, a very, very
old coin. She has some showing
the size and denomination from
1900 to the present time. She also
has some currency from the Civil
War and pre-civil war wild Cat
year." A valuable collec-
lion to hang onto I'd say. Other
students have also been bringing
N material on American money and
forms used in payment. They are
till studying the unit on savings,
payments, forgery, etc. In
Mr.. Knutson got his
washers, so no more Of you |
iced apply.
Well, I think you are getting
lbout tired with my musky twaddle |
70 shan't bore you any longer.
Jheerio, till next time.
