Thirty THE GOAL DIARY OF A FRESHMAN Sept. 6. I got up at six o'clock as school commences to-day. did my choresg partly washed my hands and face and started to school. What do you think-they gave me only four books! I shall have a snap for I'm sure I could get eight or ten subjects easy. One of the boys who called himself a Senior called me a greenie. What did he mean? Sept. 7. My lessons will be a snap to-day. There are some pretty girls in school but they are so stuck up they won't look at me. Sept. 8. I made a few purchases to-day. I went to the five and ten cent store and bought a pocket comb. a mirror, a cake of toilet soap, a bottle of perfume, and a box of face powder. Sept. 11. To-day is Saturday so I had to work all day. I don't know what is wrong with me. I just seem to think and can't sleep, eat or work. I heard Ma tell Neighbor Brown, I don't know what is wrong with our little VVillie, he seems so changed. Why he even washes his neck without me telling him. I'm afraid he won't live long! Sept. 12. I got up at seven o'clock and went to Sunday School. There was a pretty girl there who winked at me, but believe me I am not silly enough to wink back. After Sunday School I went home and ate a big dinner. Oct. 10. Didn't have my lessons very well to-clay. Teacher told me, You must have your lessons better after this or you will have to stay after school and get them. Latin is fierce. I wish the man who wrote it would have drowned before he wrote it. Oct. 20. I saw a girl in the sixth grade who is very beautiful. I wonder whether I could take her to the show Saturday night? Oct. 25. I went to town and then to the live and ten cent store and bought a book, How to Make Love to a Girlf, and a bottle of hair oil. Nov. 12. A Sophomore called me a Greenie and I hit him for it. Nov. 15. I asked jane to take her to the show Saturday night. She said, Yes, I sat up until twelve o'clock reading my new book. Nov. 17. Tonight as I wanted to start ear- ly I told Ma to have early supper. We went to the show and everybody stared at us. Dec. 18. Christmas is near and I must get something for jane, so I asked Ma for some money. Dec. 24. Santa Claus will come tonight. I must hang up my stocking. Dec. 25. VVhen I went to my stockings this morning they were full of pop-corn. I ate too much candy and got sick. Feb. 14. To-day is Valentine Day, I will get the mail. I received a Valentine from jane. It had a chicken on it. May 15. School is out and I am glad, not only for that but also because I am no Fresh- man any longer. -Heywood Cappel
