28 THE PHILLIPIAN Many people from the surrounding towns have inspected our building in the past few months. The citizens of Phillips have been highly commended. They admire the spirit shown. They know the courage it took to start and continue this project in the midst of the depression. The Legion will need the continued in- terest of all during the coming year. Now that we can use the hall, it will be very easy for some to hang back and let a few finish it. But the final success depends upon every citizen.

SHORT SKIRTS Coming home from school at noon one day Jimmy Jones, a freshie, to his mother did say, Mom, why do the girls wear their skirts so short? You know, I believe they really should not. They wear them way up above their knees, They look something awful and I'd think they'd freeze. I suppose they think it's the proper style, The skirts should be, I guess, pulled down a mile. We boys like girls who look all rightt But they don't that wayg they look a sight! Phyllis Knapp.
