Gi The Junior Classic 263 School Banking The Central Junior High School is learning the lesson of thrift. School banking was started in 1922. Since that time the pupils have de- posited S6-1-.4-49.03. During the school year of 1926 and 1927 we have banked Sli-..llrl'.SO. This year has surpassed all other years with 100 per cent of the children present banking every week. The highest amount banked in one Week was PE54-2.66. The cups are a great incentive. The room banking the largest average amount per pupil is awarded the first cup. Second and third cups are also awarded. Miss Ralston's room takes the lead in bank- ingg it has been awarded the first cup eleven times this year. YVhen this room didn't get the first cup it must have gotten the second for Miss Ralston and Mr. Marsh received the sec- ond place an equal number of times. Miss Gillespi-e's class won the third cup most often. The Magazine Club The number of magazines and books read by 7A pupils is astonishing! Miss Wagoner, the 7A English teacher, has organized a magazine club whose members are her sponsor group, the 'TA-2's. The object of the club is to bring in good magazines for the circulating library. The classes read these magazines to increase their vocabularies and to help them in their view. The classes are confi- dent that the magazines help them a great deal. The 7A classes gave a candy sale at the be- ginning ofthe semester, and succeeded in raising enough money to subscribe for sixteen periodi- cals each month. They are the following: Youth's Companion. Open Road. St. Nicholas. Field and Stream. American Boy. Popular Science. American Girl. Pathfinder. Popular Mechanics. Every Girl's Magazine. Literary Digest. National Geographic Mentor. Bulletin. Ladies Home Journal. American. Child Life. Other magazines are frequently donated when the owners are through with them. Among these are Nature. Successful Farming, American Ma- chinist, National Geographic and the YVoman's Home Companion. The number of magazines read in the TA classes from January 2+ to March 16 is as fol- lows: Class.
