Miss Cook, she’s tall and fat Cute and pretty—all like that. It would tickle anyone, you or me When she drawls out that “Believe Me.” Miss Cash, oh, don’t you know, Loves our Miss Cook so, Where you find her you find Miss Cook. No matter where you chance to look . Miss Woodson teaches you to talk in two different ways, One in the language we use every day, The other is Latin so they claim, And you have to translate in sunshine or rain. Miss Ellis, oh my dear, Her patience never quakes with fear, For she is kind and sweet And in history is hard to beat. Miss 11 liters, the youngest of all, Sweet, pretty and small. She teaches them how to keep books Without being, what we call, crooks. Miss Breen, best of cooks, Knows more than is found in books; Has a mind quite all her own, For her originality she is known.

The purpose of this club is twofold: First, to give the members a clearer insight into dramatic literature, both through study and presentation; second, to furnish a means of promoting the social activities of the members. The Club is a limited organization, each member being required, before membership is granted, to demonstrate his dramatic ability in a successful try-out. Besides this, certain other requirements are necessary. The Club meets twice a month, one of these meetings being devoted to business, the other to pleasure. Several good programs have been given at these meetings, among which were the Irish and Plantation programs. On May 6 the Club presented two short plays, “A Pretty Piece of Business,” and a scene from ‘‘Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch,” which was dramatized by the Senior Class.

Only one player, Juden, ever played on a basketball team before. Our men were very light, and, this with their inexperience, made them an easy mark for their opponents at the beginning of the season. Before the close of the season, however, the team buckled down to real work and won two games, besides cutting down the scores of the others. We' wish to thank the Alumni, and especially “Dooley” Green and Hunt Hart for their efforts in trying to improve our team, and for refereeing our games. (For sometimes they are in great personal danger when called upon to referee girls’ games.) Our best games were at Portageville on December 20. and the Sikeston and Malden games here. The game at Portageville was our first game of the season. Our team work was poor and we were playing against a strong team, so we were defeated by the score of 33—9. On January 10, .Sikeston came here, expecting an easy victory, but in a hard-fought game they won by 23—15. Hard practice improved our great deficiency, inexperience, so that we were able to win our last two games, with Kennett and Malden. The Malden game was the closest one of the season, Caruthersville winning by the score of 24—22. Our line-up was often changed during the season, having the full first team in only three games. The following is the list from whom the players were selected: Forwards: Juden, Captain. Brown Dill man Green Center: Reeves Guards: W.

Virginia Taylor, our jumping man, As fast as she can he, She can play ,if anyone can; Three cheers for Virgin-nee. Ilallie Marshall, our reliable guard, Always ready for the foe, In every game she has starred. Scattering her fame where’er we go. Laura Jeffress, another forward. Even though she is small, She makes it rough on her guard When she gets the ball. Hattie Cunningham, little and fast As good as any there are Seldom lets the ball get past, As running center she’s a star. Edith Tilman, last but not least, Shows up better after the game; When they have a feast. I ig Eats is her middle name. Without a coach where would we be? But we had very good luck this year For we had a dandy. Yes, Siree, .Miss Lorene Ellis is right there.

Considering the fact that some of this year’s team had never played a game before, much honor should be accorded the girls, as they won four games out of seven. The coach this year was Miss Lorene Ellis, who devoted much time in training the girls and should be commended for her excellent work. Only one of this team will graduate, therefore, there are bright prospects for next year’s team. TRIP TO CAPE GIRARDEAU AND FORNFELT. The girls left here February 14 for the Cape, hoping for victory, but possessing little confidence of one. On that night one of their hardest games was played. Ca-ruthersville winning by 14—11. The next night the Ca-ruthersville girls were at Fornfelt, probably a little too confident, but at any rate won another victory, this time by 16—14. Needless to say, the girls received a warm reception on their arrival home. CAPE GIRARDEAU AT CARUTHERSVILLE. On February 28 the Cape Girls, determined to “get even” with the Caruthersville girls, arrived here ready for the battle. The game was one of the best ever played on the Caruthersville court. At the end of the first half the score stood 7—3 in favor of the Cape. In the last half some remarkable playing was done by the Caruthersville girls. The game closed 16—12, Caruthersville being the victors.

Boy, that is one of the most important studies in the whole wide world. Why, we not only learn how to plant crops and gardens but we learn how to care for them, what seeds grow in what climates, and all sorts of things. Then we learn how to test our seeds to see which will grow; and not only about seeds and gardens and fields, but we learn what kinds of machinery to use. We also leant the best kinds of animals, which kinds are best, how to care for them and what kinds of food to feed them and if they don’t even teach you what proportion of each thing to give them! That isn’t all we learn in this agriculture class, either. Twice a week we have experiments at which times we test soil:;, compare legumes, judge stock and do .almost everything else. Why we even made oxygen, that stuff you breathe, and I can’t begin to tell you what else. Now, Billy, 1 think this would be a splendid course for you to take and then we could live out on a nice farm, have our water and lights, car, etc., and then we could have such a dandy farm and do it r,o scientifically. I think it would be an ideal life. Write me real soon and tell me what you think of my suggestion. Yours truly, HARRIET.

Thursday dawned cold and dark, the rain was coming in torrents, and the religious ones of the class were called together, as the ones of old. and did their part of serving their class, and about three o’clock their prayers were answered and the rain ceased. The house was decorated and large S’s were suspended from every imaginable place, to show that Seniors were there. Lots of games were played, and the teachers managed to capture all of the prizes. Of course, delicious refreshments were served. About eleven o’clock Miss Cash gave the selection “Farewell to Thee’’ and that made us remember our homes, so we dispersed to return to them. THE BASKETBALL GIRLS ENTERTAIN CAMPBELL GIRLS Friday evening, January 17. the Caruthersville Basketball Girls played a game with the Campbell Girls. As our girls felt certain that they would be victorious they prepared to have an entertainment after the game. The score was 21—17 in favor of Caruthersville, but the visitors soon forget their defeat. The piano was rolled in the gymnasium and some of the girls danced while the rest were entertained by Miss Zora Williams of Campbell and Hattie Cunningham of Caruthersville, who played on the Uke and sang. They then had a delicious “spread,” after which they all went to their respective homes.

They all went, knowing that Miss Cash would royally entertain them. They played “Drop the Handkerchief,” “Whip Cracker” and “Ball.” They learned the Virginia Reel. A soldier friend of the hostess furnished vocal and instrumental music. The refreshments were delicious and delightful. CHRISTMAS TREE It was with fast heating hearts that we assembled in the study hall, Friday, December 20, for we were to have a Christmas tree. The Domestic Science Class had decorated the tree and the room. Miss Oreen played Santa Claus and distributed the presents; candy and popcorn balls were given to each one. After this some had to show their presents. I would like to tell what Cluster got, but— it would he better for you to ask him. DANCE FOR SIKESTON BOYS A dance was given on Friday evening, January 10, in honor of Sikeston basketball boys, at the Pierce Hall. The Caruthersville boys were out for a good time so forgot their defeat. The evening was delightfully spent; all left for their homes at a late hour.

Word was going around that the Juniors were to entertain the Seniors that afternoon with a trip to the Chute. They met at 1:30 o’clock to start on their journey. As several were absent, they went to the schoolhouse after them, but something was going wrong at school (?) they didn’t join them for about two hours. They made the journey in two cars; as luck would have it ,no accidents occurred. The Juniors carried baskets and boxes with them. The Seniors were puzzled to know what was in them, just before they left, all circled around a bonfire and to their surprise there were “eats” in those baskets. When they had finished the most delightful part of the trip they were ready to travel again. Wonder if they enjoyed themselves? You would have found out of you had been there. The teachers were vexed because we had missed school, so next morning we were “given some holidays” (?) until the following Monday. FAREWELL PARTY. On Monday night. February 24, the Juniors and Seniors gave a “Farewell Party” in honor of Miss Wood-son. who was to return to her home in Cape Girardeau on Tuesday. Many interesting games were played; some of the more talented ones gave instrumental and vocal selections. Delicious refreshments were served, and at a late hour the guests returned to their homes.
