IMPROVED FACILITIEES ADDED TO SCHOOLS REPAIRS, REPLACEMENTS, NEW EQUIPMENT WILL HELP THIS YEAR’S STAFF ' The old order changeth, yield- ing place to new. . . ” Responding to the dynamic trend of today, the physical aspect of the Hebert public school system has undergone several changes since school closed last spring. Many replacements, repairs, and hew materials have been added to the schools this fall. The biology department now has wat r facilities and a new seascope. A portable saw, drill press, planer, and grinder have been purchased for the building trades classes. Mr. Martin has remodeled the wood- shop, converting it into a general shop in which are included wood- work, metal work, and electrical work. The commercial classes have four new typewriters, and th ' e printing upp has new type and a new type cabinet. Several new lockers were purchased i n order to eliminate the necessity of crowding three persons into one locker, as was done last year. The High School library now is in Room 321, the former music room, and the music room now is in Room 313. Maple floors and new tread on the stairs have improved the cen- frol portion of the main High School building. The door leading from the High School hall into the girls’ locker room has been widened. Two fireproof filing cabinets will be installed in the office for stud- ents records. Desk-chairs have been purchased for one room in the High School. (Continued on page 4) BRICKIE PINS GO OVER BIG! .Approximately three hundred Brickie pins” were sold last week under the sponsorship of the Junior c ass. Miss Horne, class sponsor in charge, reoorted that the project was so successful that the entire supply has been exhausted. “The student body cooperated splendid- ly, she said. The opportunity through the pag es of this publication to convey ai expression of gratitude to the stud ents, teachers, and citizens of th community is greatly appreciated it there were any misgivings anc doubt upon my part regarding ; new and strange situation, thej w f re Quickly and permanently dis- solved by the genuine courtesy anc friendliness of all with whom J have come in contact. This com- munity has come to be home in a miraculously short time. Such rap- id orientation on my part has left me with a firm conviction that the students, parents, and citizens want and intend to have the finest school n northwestern Indiana. Likewise he teachers share that determina- tion. There remains nothing but the cooperative action and the achievement that follows that act- ion for the community to realize that very desirable goal. I am privileged to pledge the energies and talents of the teaching staff to such an attainment. There is no finer student body than that of Hobart High. There is no more efficient teach- ing staff than the one you have. There is no more cooperative and interested community than our own. The existence of such a combin- ation presages the finest year in the history of the public schools of our city. It is a genuine privilege to be a part of and to participate in the program that will lead to such a goal. WILLIAM F KENDALL PRINCIPAL HOBART SCHOOLS HIRE TEN NEW TEACHERS WILLIAM A.

HINTS FOR HEALTH BROkEM HEART CORNER (Contributed by the Girls’ Health Class) I Do you want to spend the rest of your life fating applesauce? If you do. just follow these few simple rules: Don’t — 1. Brush our teeth twice daily — it’s too much bother. 2. See your dentist at least twice a year — all he learned in six years of college was how to de- velop x-rays. 3. Remove tartar from your teeth — save it and use it wit! ' fi’h. 4. Eat any raw food — you re no cannibal. 5. Chew your food thoroughly— you’ve got a cast iron stomach. Do — | l. Use dental flo-s to catch fish — makes a good line. 2 Eat foods with p ' enty of sugar —you might be able to develop diabetes too. 3. Eat soft foods— then you won t have to chew so hard. 4. Use plenty of toothpicks — they’re especially good for jab- bing gums. . 5. If anv of these don t work just run into a brick wall, teeth first, every now’ and then. Did you know that the romance be- tween Frances Fleming and John- ny Sapper, ‘41 grad, is still ranging high? Girls, have you seen Cathern Woods’s beau? His name is Merrill Sorrick, and he’s a ‘40 grad of Hor- ace Mann. Watch out, Cathy! % Jean Zander has been seeing quite a bit of Charles King lately. . . . could this be a budding rom- ance? We wonder why Shirley Lank- ford is so happy? Could it be be- cause Warren is back in school? (Or is he?) A certain tall, dark, and hand- some Horace Mann grad of ‘39 -is tops with Mary McRitchie. Name? . . . James Marler. A1 Alliss, who is a new fellow at Hobart High, certainly is making a hit with the girls. ... Or at least he’s trying hard, for he stands in the girls’ locker room from 7:45 until 8 a. m. and from 12 until 1:10 p. m., just waiting and watching. Beware, you girls! G. Rowley still is looking to Mil- dred L. for action and romance. ■ What has happened to the once- budding romance between Fred Gordon and Grace Dommer? Mildred Kegebein has left her heart in Hammond, where it is safe in the hands of Tummy Conley. Cleo Mock and Joe Ronska have severed connections after going to- gether for eight whole months. Is : n because of a third party? Geneva Gaflord must have found the right one, for it’s been heard : that she is getting a ring for her j birthday. Nice going, Geneva. Vacation didn’t seem to have any effect on Helen Walter and A1 Ril- : ter. Looks like the Real McCoy. Louie Rose and Betty Gulledge | seem to- be on the verge of a merge Here’s to that. WATCH FOR THESE! Hobart High School’s Band will make its 1941 concert debut in new uniforms.
