beats that one of the girls all hollow. Connie Curtner endeavored to portray for us the country life of “Root-Wad.” In this she succeeded very well because of her native talent and because of her long association with the things rustic. Carmie Self and Floyd Cain, considering their natural handicaps, made very good Irish women. Having given in full a description of the most prominent persons attending this social function, we shall pass to the other events of the evening. There was a prize given for the partners who could guess the identity of George and Martha Washington. Cluster and Gwendolyn proved the winners when they guessed Miss Sprott and Mrs. Tom Simpson. Lenora won the “Holiday Guessing” contest and was awarded a jar of pink hair shampoo. Pity the school when Lenora washes her head. The writer has smelled the shampoo. Dow Edgerton was awarded a rattle for winning the newspaper race. Being a Senior, and having learned the lesson of conservation, he will save it against the wants of a future day. Despite the snow outside and cold radiators on the inside, brick ice cream was served. A cold reception, we call it. The “SPECTATOR.” A JUNIOR’S IDEA OF A TYPICAL FRESHMAN He is a jolly little fellow, as happy as a child on some new and novel experience. Why should he care if his lessons are not well prepared? Is it not honor enough to be a Freshman in High School? Always laughing at nothing, and doing something not pertaining to school work—he is what might be called a comical little runt. He marvels and wonders, concerning the mental and physical feats of the boys in higher classes. Yet can he not do just as well, or better? He is a Freshman. His most prominent peculiarity is that he is sure he knows everything, and must disagree with everybody. And yet he is willing to admit his inability to do a feat quite beyond his reach. Such a peculiarity as this can only exist in a Freshman. He is never afraid to express himself, in whatever fashion it may be done. But why should he be afraid? He is a Freshman. Should he be worried with such insignificant matters? Being almost to the height of his ambition, he seems really satisfied. What greater feat is there for him to accomplish. He is now independent, even of the teachers. But, why is he so quiet and studious of late? He is smiled at by the older boys. He had become too funny and independent, so the teachers say, and even he seemed to realize it after another novel experience in the office, which was not anticipated.

SENIOR’S ADVICE ON LEAVING HIGH SCHOOL IF you want to be in the kind of a school Like the kind of a school you like, You needn't pack your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You’ll only find what you left behind For there’s no school that’s really fine Unless each one pulls with a right good will. And every one gets into line. Live schools are not made by fellows afraid Lest a little work they do. If every one lifts and nobody leans You can put the old school through. School pep and school spirit you must have, The “punch” that makes things go. In Algebra, Science and English, too, Some progress each day must show. And so, while we go to our places beyond, We'll leave this little word true— It’s a knock at yourself when you knock your school; It isn’t your school, it’s you. —J. E. H ------O------ JTJNIOR-SENIOR PARTY The Seniors had almost given up the Junior Bunch as hopeless when—lo and behold, they received an “invite:” In “out-of-date” costumes Come meet us in our Gym, etc. That was enough. Not even a wintry night with the streets little rivers of snowy slush could deter the Seniors from enjoying such an unlooked for opportunity. If laughing makes one grow fat, we should have put on a lot of avoirdupois that evening. For instance take Nell Stancil. Now, of course, Nell has studied Geometry else in her portrayal of an old maid she could not have eliminated all the curves and and left only the angles. Then there was Hattie. What she had on I don’t know. But I do know that the shoulders were padded and that the skirt didn’t end but kept going right on------. Marguerite Bloker, of course, was young and her dress was short, and her ? ? ? came below her dress and were trimmed in lace. And Ella Wright’s kilts—um! uh! How she had accomplished it, the “Spectator” doesn’t know. But anyway, right then and there, the boys invented a “baby stare” that
