The Montana Power Company :r4::::::p4::::::-:::::-:::::poo4:::::po4::: CLEAN-UP DAY Once upon a time, not so very long ago, a few students of G. H. S.- good civic minded, well brought up kids with a love of clean, neat surroundings-took a look around their Alma Mummy and said: My, this place looks a little messyl Of course, that was after their young minds had been directed in such a course by Mr. lrle. Anyhow, the result, as we all know, was Cleanup Day. Fun for the kids from six to sixty. Guaranteed to give you a good case of housemaid's knee, dishwater hands, cal- Fuses from head to toe, and a dirty face, refreshments ree. So, upon the afternoon of Friday, April 28, l939, A. D., all the junior and senior high school students gath- ered to clean up the place. Bevies of beautiful girls clad in costumes built for comfort and speed rather than chic, hordes of young men clad likewise in attire built essen- tially for comfort. Among the most comfortable looking was Peggy Onberg, wearing slacks with just the right bag to the knee, the legs rolled up to a smart length, a blue sweat shirt completing the costume. Her only accessory was a rake which she never got to use, for Miss Onberg had the rare privilege of washing woodwork for the glory of dear old G. H. S. Among the boys, we noticed especially Carroll fliillerl Brant, who was the perfect Farmer Brown, but who in- sisted 'he was a railroad foreman Qstealing Johnny Ger- m.an's thunderl. lmagine a railroad foreman diggin' ditches! Darwin Markle looked ever so dapper in his rather droopy straw hat, the kind we used to wear when very young. But it takes the faculty to really dress the part. Take Mr. Breen's get-up for instance. The very school building held its breath whenever he passed by for fear the sweat pants CI think that's what they'er called, would drop. What was the secret of his success in keeping them up? And there was Superintendent lrle, clad in overalls of an indescribable hue and not much looking the part of superintendent. We'd have sold our soul to be a family of mice in corners all over the place to. watch the glamour gals ancl men-about-town apply the old elbow grease to the layers of gumbo on the study hall windows or gaily breaking rocks CSing Sing, here we comej and muttering On- ward, Glasgowln Oh, to have seen Margaret Boub, Helyn McMillan, Marie Hall, etc., out raking up th Lone Prairie, to Watch Kathleen Gallagher, Priscilla Pease, etc., clam- bering around the windows like human flies, a-cleaning and a-scrubbing. Oh, to have seen the look on janitors' faces as they watched the industrious ones clean up after themselves for,a change. Then there were refreshments! The whole project turned into a major riot in the gym. Though it started out by 'having to present a ticket to show you'd earned your eats, it wasn't long before it was a survival of the fittest or first come, first served but don't push. Although no one went away gaunt and hungry, there were a few who left the institution looking rather man- gled. Johnny Kamla, who sligged himself with a pick-axe, left with a bump on his cranium. Miss Crest, who rammed her hand in a coke barrel and thence onto a broken bot- tle, departed with minor lacerations on one hand. Then there were the hordes of blister laden individuals who would approach us and say belligerently, Look at those blisters - I worked l lt's too bad there was a dust storm t'he next day. -- B. A.
