We HMI-IEIW W Feb. Feb. Feb. Feb. Feb. Feb. March March March March March March March March March March March March CALENDAR-Continued The Juniors have party in Mr. Auld's room. Farming- ton didn't mind their defeat after the party. Many teacher visitors. Our faculty goes to the institute this afternoon and we get off. Mr. Stewart is all smiles. He is a happy father. We celebrate Washington's birthday by hard study for tests. Have you had your picture taken? The faculty must also go through the agony. Mr. Lantz murders a mouse. Girls' screams indicate perfect panic. Have your proofs arrived? Anti-chewing gum law enforced with great losses among the chewers. Do you always forget your Manual? The Orospolitan must appear on time. Beware the editor. A new national government, but the school remains un- changed. We have been winning basket ball games continuously. That tournament begins to look good to us. Wheeling refuses to play basket ball. Why? It might be summer but it's not. Senior class finally agrees on a play. Committee finds trouble picking a cast, but Hnally announces success. New baseball equipment arrives. Begins to look like business. Fifth period. Sad mistake in Geometry l IB. Some one wrote word interesting instead of intersecting on board. It did not fit the subject. The editor is trying to take this from the machine, and hence must cease my struggles. Oh, for the good old summer time, when all our studies end. 17 'I l92l I' XX
