. . . HUMOUR. . . WHAT THE STAFF WOULD SAY IF— One day, a very down-hearted girl, sat in her room, wondering just what the staff would say if she commited suicide. She came to me, related her woeful tale and asked for my help in the matter. My, job, was to find out the different reactions from the staff when I told them I had found Sharon E. Kunow hanging from a basket ball basket in the gymnasium, where she had taken her life. Here are the comments: What will the Board say? ?!! No more leaves for her! She just handed in an essay; I would too! A coward 1 s way out! By the law of gravity she ' ll have to come down. This ' ll go down in history. How did she get her head through that thing? She needed guidance, but did she hang perpendicular to the floor. Skipping typing again, eh? Hurrah! Two points for Alma!! Did she turn in her locker key and get her laundry? It couldn ' t have been anything she ate — Could it? ? Has Rigormortis set in yet? Mrs. Sifton: Mrs. Doering: Mrs. Douglas: Miss Johnston: Dr. Hunter: Mrs. Coulter: Miss Brien: Mrs. Thurlow: Mrs. Allin: Miss Mooney: Mrs. Lawrence: Miss Grobb: Miss Gill: Alas, this was the fate of Sharon E.
