Lansing Al High
School News

Lansing High school opened

are grade pupils, 1873 being in
high school. The faculty, which
consists of sixteen teachers, has
five new members. They are MIR.
and Mrs. Frank James, Mrs. Ray
mond Powers, Mrs. Ray Blevins,
and George Miller. F. M. Stat
ford Smith, who did substitute
teaching here after his discharge
from the navy last year, is also
a member of this years faculty.
A new course, oral English, has
been added to the curriculum.
The class is now preparing some
one-act plays to be given to the
public at future date. The class
meets as a club once each week,
and the following pupils have
been elected officers: president,
Thomas Roberts; vice-president,
Bud Little; secretary, Pauline
Weaver; treasurer, Kenneth Dol
niger.
An election has been held to
select officers of the senior class.
They are as follows: president,
Bryan Spencer; vice-president,
Viola McNeill; secretary, Dick
Littlewood; treasurer, Fred Car
ter.
Recent social functions have
been put on by the ninth grade
and the seniors, both of whom
had picnics at Bluff Park and
theatre parties. The seniors,
sponsored by Mrs. Stafford Smith,
had as guests the Juniors and their
sponsor, Frank James, Mrs. Frank
James, and Stafford Smith. The
ninth grade, sponsored by Stat
ford Smith, were honoring Thorn
as Roberts, fellow pupil who
has volunteered for service in the
army air corps. Mrs. Stafford
Smith also attended the function.
On Friday afternoon, October 4,
district teachers meeting was
held at the school with Ron Davis,
principal, presiding. One of the
main features of the program was
an interesting talk by Frank
James on school attendance by
pupils. He suggested that the
chief way to have good attend
ance is for the teacher to create
sufficient interest to attract the
child. The teacher should deal
with the child as an individual
since each one likely requires diff
ferent treatment, he pointed out.
If child is absent, the teacher
should know the reason and, if
necessary, contact his parents be-
fore reporting him.

gray and withdrawn. He excused
himself.
Abigail Hartigan's high color
merged into scarlet. 'There, now
I've offended him! I'm just a
bungling old fool. Every time
I open my mouth l put both feet

But Janet was not sorry it had

He started to explain.
Janet stared at him. His face
was beginning to lose its shape,
to waver and dissolve, to grow
long and distinct, then faint and
1t lost all meaning. Suddenly it
came a low, muffled roar like
water rushing over rocks and
boulders, and Janet felt herself
falling into a dark, abysmal pit
that grew blacker and seemed to
reach into eternity.
Janet regained consciousness,
aware of gentle undulating mo-
ton. Her body was rising and
falling pleasantly, yet whatever
was holding it was firm and se-
cure.
She opened her eyes, saw the
banisters sliding past and because
the sight made her dizzy, she
quickly closed them again. She
was in Richards arms being car
ried upstairs.
He took her to her room and
laid her on her own massive bee.

Mos OF The Moment By 3 :, g: e! B., BOB

Keeping milk volume to a higher
level IN early spring, midsummer and
fall is story in itself. I've passed
along IN the past some ideas from the
extension services on how to do it.
Earlyspring pastures ofsmalEgrains
do the best job in those areas where
small grains are proved up for such
use. Renovated pastures and supple
mentary pastures are next on the list
for midsummer and early fall.
No matter what state you live in.
there are supplementary pastures that
can be seeded in the spring to give
you midsummer grazing even through
hot, dry spells.

Use Grain Supplement

Winter feeding on lines recommended
by your extension service is another
step in the even milk production pro-

cow needs all the high grade forage
it will eat plus grain supplement.
The amount of grain the COW gets
should be figured on the amount Of

WiN Raise Milk Volume

One of the best reasons for evening up
your milk production is that such a
program raises the volume in summer,
fall and winter and thus increases your
totalncome from milk. Also, it spreads
your labor around the calendar better
and you don't have as big a load of
work in one short period of the year.
Breeding for fall freshening is one of
the first and most important steps to
take to spread your production. Plan
your breeding program so that calves
are dropped at intervals over a period
of two or three months and cows will
be drying up at different times and

Order Fertilizer Early

You can plan your program now to
take care Of breeding for fall fresh-
ening: you can lay your plans now for
a sound feeding program through the
winter. It'may not be too late as you
read this to start pasture renovation.
Certainly it is not too early to get
your orders in now for fertilizer and
seed for next years use.
A new year of opportunity is not far
away. Planning now will help you
take advantage of the demand for
more high-quality milk-a demand
that everyone expects to continue
through many years to come.
