ese art'. Due to a Lincoln Board of Education ruling we've been wondering how long Miss Perry will be with us. It's been rumor- ed that she has a ste-ady. When you see a broad smile Humunn walking around under a pair of expressive brown eyes you'll know that you are looltiitg at Thelma Rider, who teaches bookkeeping and shows pupils how to tickle the typewriter keys. This is her first year here so she was given the best behaved home room in the building, Always wanted to be a teacher and hasn't changed her mind. fCatch?Q Hobby is meet- ing and dealing with people.

I'll probably rue that some day. By the way, she's foot loose and fancy free, In conclusion, we seniors have been pretty well satisfied with our tutors and beg them to have pa- tience with next year's seniors W, Mrs. Thelma Rider who are expected to live up to our high standards of conduct.

This seemed to be the favorite- sport, The football captain enjoys sea-far- ing life very much, as long as the boat stays under him, Many, while boating, bathed their feet, while others preferred complete sans clothes. Three nude bathers were frightened to the protection of the trees when an unsuspecting boat came within sight of their private swimming pool. All through the day tow-ins were ouite in order and hitch-hikers on stranded boats were as plenti- ful as those on the highway.
