Tl-lE1911ALlV1ANAC PARTY FROM SMITH'S CORNERS VISITS T. H. S. Here. ladies and gentlemen. you see the High School: it's rather low in the estimation of some people. but you'll see many things of interest. 't it 'k No. it's not a reformatory: those bars simply make the doors push open more easily. You see the students pile out rather unceremoniously at 12:45. We will visit the lower hall first. This is Room 1. a11d a seat here is all that distinguishes Csomel people like Tommy Almroth from the children on the third floor. It it 'lc Oh. I should say not! no one ever works at that table in the front of the room. That is the reference table: for information apply to Douglas Andrews and Ruth Giegel: it seems to have a peculiar attraction for them. Passing on. we see the famous H. Library. Here they keep a few books. but far more important are the loving cups won by the 'distinguished' tk Did you hear about it? Ive got them back in a day or so tl: :F Here is the clock-ordinary looking. but really quite extraordinary: it's always about an hour slow. and it runs more slowly when the nice spring days come. Q' ti VVhat did you say? Oh. you are mistaken: that is not an elevator. that's the Stationer's desk. where Paul keeps pads. pencils and an open house for the boys. if it :F if 'F tk P? Here. sonny. don't drop your letter in that box: it's a mail box only in that the girls on the Retina Board car1't open it. Now then. allow me to show you the Physics Laboratory. at T 4' Oh. no! those squeals need not alarm you. it's only a class of girls going into the dark room. it ti YYhy. if you want to. certainly: even hot colored water in the 'soup room.' rt at No. no. that isn't the Principal. that's Earl Bankey out on a hall permit. He has doubtless seen a pretty girl thru the window. 't tt Uh. yes. but we're used to him and don't mind him in the least. Be careful how you step. ladies. some careless little Freshman has left her jacks on the stairs. it YYell. I should think that laughter did sound hollow! 'counterfeited gleef you know: some teacher has told a joke. 4' 'it 'k Yes. poor things. isn't it a shame. at it it lYhat! you don't care to go in there? Uh. surely. that's the dissecting room or the physiology laboratory. whichever you wish to call it. S tk Uh. come right in. nothing to be alarmed at. I'm sure. In this case you will find reposing the bones of Johnny. the old H, S. mascot. His was a sad fate. He slid down the bannister in the Manual Building: they didn't find all of him when they picked him up. But we have another now. his name is Iitley. tt But we must hurry on. Oh. I didn't mean you were to runfwell. that is. you might walk a little fast. It won't kill you. however. it's only gas escaping from the 'Chem. Lab.' But then. it's all in the interest of science. Y You've dropped your bag. madam. Here. allow me. tt tt The noise you hear? I beg pardon. the lllll-Slit' is the Glee Club practice. Uh. no. it must be the Seniors Hoating along 'the beautiful blue Danubeg' and it seems that they enjoy trying to sing so well that they sometimes sing 'all thru the nightf X if tt Separate from the 210
