They are at a loss as to whom they belong. Every one pushes by, not taking time to even notice them. How relieved they are when they see the smiling face of Miss DeLand! Their first day in High School is quickly ended and the passing months soon bring the end of that year. Perhaps they will 'be more popular the next year. Station F. H. S. signing oif. Station F. H.
