a Junior, "I Don't know" and when ia,
Senior "I didn't comprehend the na-

Sayings *of High School students:
Fierce essons, late hours, unexpected
company, nothing done, I forgot,
Clock was slow, am crazy about my

Seniors.
Freshie—"Mr Parsons the sun is shin-
in on me."
Mr. Parsons—"The sun is good for
green things."
Recitations of some of the know it all
Seniors.
Mr. Parsons—"David, give me a sen-
tence using the verb put"
David—"I puten the book on the ta-
ble"
Mr. Parsons—"Bill, what was wiong
with David's example?"
Bil—"He went and puten puten whore
he oughta puten put.
Mr. Parsons—"Beulah, you will have
to use your own ingenuity. Now, if
you dont know what that means, you
can—
Beulah—-"Oh, I know what it means
but I haven't any.
The high school and faculty were
entertained by the Sophmores Satur-
day night Oct. 28. The wericd red
lights in the school house could be
seen for several blocks. The entire
pace looked very spooky indeed and
not only in looks was it spooky but
also in reality. Ask the Frehmen
about it. Sophmores are alright, so
the Juniors say. Everybody had a
good time and the Sophmores were
highly elated over their succcss.
School is growing better every day,
come and see for yourself.
