ey, eh what?
Plans are bein gmade to start a
Brownie troup in this city.
"The intermediates are showing
more and more interest" says Miss
Sather, their leader. They are plan
ming bicycle hikes, breakfast hikes,
etc.
sports
With still almost two weeks be-
fore the opening home game the
football squad should be in fine
shape for the game at Sank Centre
against Long Prairie. The team has
showed up well so far and all four
home games should be good ones.
Football enthusiasm and school
spirit are slowly taking effect and
will come to a point on opening
night. You can get in the swing of
things by buying your athletic
tickets as soon as possible.
Junior High Classes
The ninth graders seem to know
all about getting on and off trains
(thanks to Mr.. Knutson's patient
efforts) 50 now they're going to
start on transportation of goods.
My, my I wonder how they can go
so long without a suitcase all this
time. I hear some of them are
taking little trips to the postoffice
to find out about parcel post rates.
It's a good thing we have a good
natured postmaster.
Mr.. Smiths blackboard is covered
with all sorts Of queer drawings,
later found out to be areas and

now. They go to the library every
Wednesday afternoon where they
take out books for a week. Each
time they take out a book they
receive a card to fill out and hand
in when the book is brought back.
We would like 1t very much If the
parents return the cards filled out.
The following people have the best
writing papers: Marilyn Lovik,
Larry Young, Louis Rische, David
Daniels and Bernadine Doege.
The second grades are making
booklets illustrating the three
bears.
Last week the fourth grade or
ganized a club which will hold a
meeting every Friday afternoon.
The following officers were elect
ed: President, Bobby Westhoff;
secretary, Buddy Iwinski; treasur-
err, Rose Vennewitz. Housekeep-
ers, line monitors and desk mont
tors were appointed for the week.
Both the fourth and fifth grad
ers are studying about Minnesota,
and are having fun learning new
things about our state. They are
looking for Minnesota pictures and
are hoping to make a good collec-
ton. It was fun to read about the
early history of Sank Centre, how
the town got started, and about its
name. They have had some very
pretty flowers in their room this
week. Dean Perry brought some
gladiolus, Shirley Pangburn brought
nasturitiums and Alta Crandall
brought a red geranium plant.
A pine cone about eighteen inch
es long, from California redwood
was brought to school by Ross
Huismann. They also have in their
collection an English half penny
and penny, samples of Pipestone,
an Indian head carved from pipe
stone, and an Indian belt. Keep it
up kids. They are reading library
books and hope to win the library
champ banner this week. Good luck
fifth graders. The program COM
mittee is planning to give a play
Friday. It is named Crossing the
Plains in 1916" They enjoyed the
Paul Bunyan stories Miss Sather
reads to them.
Miss Holden's pupils of the sixth
grade class are now enjoying the
forty-five minutes Physical Educa-
ton period which has recently been
planned for them. In History the
students are reading Greek and
Morse myths. The artistic students
are planning room decorations for
the month Of October.

was published last week will be fol-
lowed throughout the entire school

some Of them work I really am
afraid they'll get indigestion.
Conservation classes are really
orientation classes for the first part
Of the year. They're studying how
to study-him, well anyway they're
studying.
The seventh grade history classes
are way back when, learning the
colonization period Of American
history. John Smith is everybody's
hero, just now(except for the girls
who are holding out for Pocahan-
tas. On the other hand the
eight grade are right up with the
times in their study Of the national
government.
Stopping at the ninth grade
English class much to our surpriZe
we find not Miss Nestande but
Miss Bone. She's up there to stir
up some interest among them to
join a contest. They're to write a
theme on "No Armistice with
tuberculosis" Heck that ought to
be easy-why they give you the
title free for nothing. Besides Miss
Bone did some valuable research
work on it while she was in the
corn sticks Qowa to you) last year.
She'd like an entry from Junior
High. I'm sure that if they're any
thing like the rest of us they'll do
anything for Miss Bone.
This week Miss Kobe gave us
more detailed explanation of the
Christmas paper the ninth grade
is making christmas is really on
the way you knowD Each student
is making their own design. Then
they'll combine them all in one big
linoilum block print. On combining
the two colors, red and green, for
some of the designs it will make
a very striking arrangement.

SENIOR HIGH CLASSES
SOphOmOres
We are sorry to say that we have
received no news from the Sophie
mores, but sometimes they say mo
news is good news"
Juniors
In geometry class we have been
reviewing how to bisect lines and
triangles. With this also goes the
construction of similar and con-
gruent triangles. This may sound
like lot of Greek to those of you
who haven't taken geometry but
it's something all right. Thursday
we are to have our first test which
will include all of the material we
have covered so far.
In Miss Wilson's Junior English
class we have finished working on
conversations and are now on bust
ness interviews which are usually
quite interesting.
We have at last received our new
history books which everyone terms
as swell (of course a new broom
always sweeps good, but these real
ly are something.) In these we
are studying the relationship of the
mother country to the colonies.
In German I class we are work
ing on the second lesson which
proves that it is getting harder.
We are also learning to pronounce
more correctly our a, e, i, o, us.
Now for Miss Swanson's classes
who have also received some new
books, this time it is work book
(there is always work connected
with them, that's just the sad part)
In these they're studying transi-
tive and intransitive verbs. They
have finished giving speeches for
q while and are now concentrating
on grammar.
In Economic Geography we find
the studying Of plains and rivers
and how they are important to the
human life. Reports have been
made and one each day has been
about river. One Of these reports
has been made on the Mississippi
River. the Father of Waters, and
there were many interesting facts
told some of which we'd like to
pass on to you.
The Mississippi-Missou system
is about 400 miles long. Many
people think Missouri is the trunk
stream. AZ percent of all the water
in the United States is sent down
this river and it has a basin of
1,25O,0O0 square miles. The volume
Of water every second is 100000
tons, enough to fill a barrel as high
as the Woolworth building in New
York. It carries down about AGO.
100000 cubic yards of solid matter
or four times the amount of dirt
taken from the Panama Canal and
sand enough to make eight sand
piles as tall as the Woolworth
building and one-half mile at it's
base.
