Page 36 The Petrolia June 1937 Junior Hi To Study Health New health curricula are to be introduced into the various class- rooms of the Coalinga Junior High School at the beginning of the fall term. By this program students will become health conscious. Each person will be held responsible to see that no one, either in the classrooms or at home, has any contagious disease. Weekly investigations of the health habits of each student will be recorded on a chart to be kept in each classroom. Health habits on which the stu- dents will be checked are: num- ber of hours of sleep, daily bath, clean fingernails, clean handker- chiefs, care of hair, prope r diet, teeth, and study habits. Jr. Red Cross Keeps Motto With I serve as its motto: the local Junior Red Cross has completed a commendable year of service both at home and abroad. Friday of each week through- out the year was set aside for Penny Day on which day students donated pennies toward the Ju- nior Red Cross Fund. A part of this money was used to send Christmas boxes to the Island of Guam, and to send a gift of five dollars to the Wish-I-Ah Sanitor- ium. At Christmas a local poor fam- ily was presented with dinner, gifts, and clothing. Another service of the organi- zation was the conducting of a Home Accident Program. Drama Course Planned For Junior High Drama, a new course for junior high students, is to be introduced into the school curricula for the fall term of 1937. This class, under the direction of Miss Marie Rushen, will in- clude a discussion of drama, the early theaters, construction of model theaters, project proper- ties, stage managements, the art of make-up, and the fundamen- tals of theater acting. The acting will begin with short skits and gradually work into two-act plays. A large enrollment is expected for this class. The Origin Of Dishes By BOBBY HAYS Did you ever hear the story of how the woodpecker and the water.barrel cactus started a dish factory for the Indians? Well— it was like this: The woodpecker was looking for a place to build a cozy nest on the desert and he chose a wa- ter-barrel cactus for his purpose. He fixed the inside of his nest nice and firm with the cactus so that it wouldn ' t lose all the wa ter it had stored up for a dry season. Then the woodpeck er had a dry, warm p ' ace in which to raise his family. After the wood- pecker discarded his nest, an In- dian came along and cut out the woodpecker ' s nest so he had a vessel for food and drink. Such a fine desert factory should get something in return for it ' s fine work, as do the city factories. A Problem By BEATRICE PATTON May I ask you a question or two? Promise me you ' ll answer true. Why am I me, When you are you? I don ' t think it is fair, You only get one name and I get two. Why are we us? Can we be both us and we? That has always been a thing That has greatly puzzled me. Why are you a she or her, And you a him or he? Are both of you not people Just exactly like me? Kidder Serves As First Girl Prexy While Riding the Rails on Page 35, Don Wood slipped and fell. X marks the spot where his head should have been. A r 1 o a Ridder, 1935-36 Junior High School student body presi- dent, is the first girl in the his- tory of the school to serve a full term as president of the stu- dent body. Miss Ridder has set a mark as an all-around student and a cap- able leader. She has proved her- self to have a pleasing personal- ity and to be able to adapt her- self easily to her surroundings. She has had the cooperation and support of the entire student body in all her undertakings. Although there was some doubt at the time of election as to the ability of a girl to lead the stu- dent body through the term, Miss Ridder has dispelled this feeling decisively and has paved the way for future girl presidents.
