Nine assembly stamps and thirty-six activity stamps, costing ten cents each, are sold during the year to pay for these entertainments This booklet has proved highly successful. Also, guidance courses were instituted at the request of Mr johnson Every sem- ester each student is required to take a different one-hour-a-week subject, They encourage the student to develop his personality and adapt himself to various situa- tions he may meet when he leaves school, Both Mr, johnson and Mr, Cline have played an important part in the life of every student, and one which he will not soon forget.
