22 EDOM 24—MISS CATO We are informed that Sid Reid, who stood on his head under a pile-driver for the purpose of having a tight pair of boots driven on, found himself the next day in China perfectly naked, and without a cent in his pocket. Miss Joyce Warren, a beautiful young lady, lighted a fire with kerosene last Saturday. Her funeral sermon will be preached this afternoon. No flowers. Laura Anderson put her tongue to a flat iron to see if it was hot. That household has been remarkably quiet since. Bud Lamb, against his wife’s wishes, persisted in smoking on a load of hay. He came home shortly afterwards without any whiskers or eyebrows and the iron framework of his wagon in a gunny sack. Robert Douglas mistook the head-light of an engine for a glow¬ worm. He subsequently joined the temperance society. We call Miss Cato Experience because she is a dear teacher. 1. Names. 2. Ambition. 3. Weakness. 1. “Sleepy” Hutchinson. 2.

24 E. H. S. YEAR BOOK ROOM 13—MR. McQUIRE Margaret McQuarrie is the Room Rep. in this room and was faithful in attendance at all executive meetings. Bob Boyer was eating some “horse candies.” Maybe he was trying to make himself a fast stepper. Paul Boberasky is famous for his wisecracks in Room 13. Lil Brooks tries her best to stay awake a few hours of the day. Jim McCauly is the shiek in our room. He is trying to get in the movies. Ruby Jeffels has the majority of the brains in Room 13. Jean Michie is noted over the school for her curly hair. THE TENNIS CLUB When the good day of April came there was a cry all over the school of “Tennis.” Those who had cramped up all winter were ready to stretch themselves on the tennis courts. Mr. Clark once more came to our assistance and helped to organize the Tennis Club. The meeting was held on the 26th of April. Officers were elected and plans for the year were discussed. Arthur Southworth was elected president, Eleanor Doug¬ las, treasurer, and a committee was chosen to put the courts in playing form. It did not take the committee long to roll the courts into shape, repair the nets, and the game is now in full swing.
