That bouncing and banging noise on gmates in the new gym where Mr Fear heiley is building those he men in the boys gym classes Due to the growth of these classes the athletic department demands all his time Weather permitting the boys work off excess energy in spirited games of football and baseball on the campus Mr Mey is the man who teaches the boys to drive nails but not fingernails udging from the products of the shop Mr Mev s boys certainlv develop skill in wood work and mechanical drawing Lively times are had in this department and much fine work is turned out Mr Orland IHSIYUCIS the farmers of to morrow Why does a cow chew her cud and students chew gum? ust ask Mr Or land our ag teacher I dont believe there is anything I would rather do says Mr Orland than to teach a group of boys about agriculture His hobby IS farm ing can you imagine that?
