wouldn’t carve your name on the book case, piano or chairs. Then why should you do this to school property? The desks in the Assembly Room should not be cut' any more than the piano at home. The class room chairs should not be marked any more than the best parlor chair. After this let us be more careful of the desks, the walls, chairs and tables in the Chinook High School, for they belong to us. —Norma Sisson, ’20. We Thank You We wish to thank our friends for their loyal support in giving us advertisements for this year. Most of the townspeople have taken a great deal of interest in “The Breeze’’ and seem to take as much pleasure in making our paper a success as do the editoris. To you, dear high school friends, we will the editorship for next year. We hope you will successfully show the public that there is still some “pep’’ left in the C. H. S. Many of us will be gone but we ask you to take up the task we have left and carry it on to success. Let your motto be, “We’ll do our very best.” —Kathryn Flanagan, ’18.

The Scouts’ Garden “Say wouldn’t that be fun?” urged John. “Oh, come on, let’s do it,” agreed Harry. “All right,” agreed Ted. “When shall we begin?” asked Harry. “Let me see; it’s the middle of March now,” mused John, half to himself and half to the boys. “I think that we can begin at once. As you know we had our gardens plowed last fall and we’ll have them disked and harrowed as soon as possible. In the meantime we can be planting our seeds in boxes and in the hot house we made. I think by the last of April we ought to have radishes and lettuce a good way along and also some tomato and cabbage plants.” The boys were rather surprised at John saying so much as John usually listened while everyone else talked but now he was excited and why shouldn't he be? The three boy scouts, John, Ted and Harry were going to try to see who could make the best vegetable garden with the least expense and the most profit. There were two things which led them to think of this. The first was that they had received some information from Mr. Abbey, the president of the boys’ and girls’ club of Montana ,asking them to ;oin. Next they had heard old Peter Jones say, “Aw, those kids can’t do anything anyway. All they'll do is waste perfectly good seed and ground that would otherwise be put into good use for the gove’ment.” This last is what made the boys think and they decided to show Peter Jones a thing or two. “It’s all right with me,” agreed Ted. “I’m going to begin at once.” “Hadn’t we better send our cards to Mr. Abbey, stating that we have joined? Because we want to show old Peter Jones what a boys’ club can do, if they try.” “Well I’m going now,” said Harry. “And I'm going to send my card right away. You know we have to keep a record of the cost and the state sends us record books so we might as well get them as soon as possible. I’ll tell you what let’s us do. Meet once a week and talk things over and In the meantime let’s not say a word to each other about it. We’re just wasting a lot of time talking. By the way you know' Mr. Potter said if we got in trouble to go to Mr. Thorfinnson, the county agent, for help. That’s where I'm headed for now. Good-bye. ’ “He certainly seems to mean business, doesn’t he?” laughed John. “Guess I’ll go too. Well good-bye. See you next Saturday in the hayloft of our barn.” “All right,” agreed Ted, as he hurried away. About a month after this conversation occurred, there were about three of the busiest boy scouts im- Page Twenty scorn
