“Who wrote this note?” Mr. Mumma teach¬ es English to the mischievous underclassmen and applies all the grammar rules to the proof read¬ ing of the Ravelings-. “I think I’ll give a test in safety tomorrow.’ Miss Pumphrey is the supervisor of the girls sports and teaches health and safety. “Passive verbs never take objects.” Mr. Selle- meyer fills the capacities of visiting teacher, substitute teacher, and band director. Beware of “Selley” on those nice, warm, spring days, fellows! “You’ll find D. H. S. located about here.” To locate Mr. Smith, visit the history and geography room, number 205. “An electric stove is very easy to regulate.” In Miss Worthman’s home economics classes the girls learn the arts of sewing and cooking.

S., the touches of color are added by Miss Kauffman and her art classes. “This looks more like a perspective than an orthographic drawing.” Mr. Ketchum, the super¬ salesman, instructs the boys’ manual training classes. He and his students are continually con¬ structing articles needed in D. H. S. “Use a comma to separate the coordinate clauses of a compound sentence, Flora Belle.” Miss Lewton, the intellectual one, teaches English to sophomores, juniors, and seniors and fulfills her job well. “You have made a mistake in this column of figures.” Bookkeeping, commercial law, and mathematics are taught by the jolly Mr. Millikan.
