The widow Agnes Martyn who has three children has fallen in love with an old schoolmate, Henry Turner, who has two children. The children try to keep them from getting married by playing practical jokes on their soon to be step-parents. However, in the end everyone finds out they like each other and Henry and Agnes are mar- ried. Our play was a big success, and we enjoyed putting it on. Mrs. Heacock, our coach, invited us over to her house after Dress Rehearsal for a party and everyone had a very good tirne. I'm sure everyone will re- rnember the fun we had behind the scenes at play practice. Z7

OUR COURSE OF STUDY Everyone was pleased with the variety of subjects the faculty was able to offer our small group. The four Freshman girls are taking Geometry, General Science, English II, and Home Economics l. The Sophomores take the same subjects as the Freshmen, except the boys take Manual Training while the girls have Home Economics 11. Juniors and Seniors had quite a choice of subjects. They were: English Literature, Biology, Physics, Commercial Law, Algebra Il, Geometry, Home Economics, and Manual Training. Both classes took English Literature: the Junior girls took Biology, 1 but the boys chose Physics. The girls chose between Advanced Algebra and Commercial Law the first semester and everyone took Civics the second semes- ter and everyone took Civics the second semester. Geometry was carried as a fifth subject by a few Junior Girls. Some of the Senior boys continued Advanced Algebra the second semester and also took Trigonometry to prepare for college. Our extra curricular activities and opportunities consist of Band, Sextet, Trio, Solo and group singing, and also Basketball and Baseball. S HOT LUNCHES The Lunch Program in our school has again proven to be successful. At the beginning of this year we had as our cooks, Mrs. Unkel and Betty Weber. At the beginning of the second semester we changed cooks to Mrs. Hanner and Mrs. Coover. Our lunches are priced at twenty-two cents for High School and Junior High students and twenty cents for the lower grades. The lunch usually consists of two hot dishes, three sandwiches, a dessert and milk or fruit juice to drink. This year the order of serving has been changed. At 11:00 the primary room is served. Then at 11:30 the second and third grade room and at 11:45 the upper grades and at 12:00 noon the High School is served. This order has proven to work out nicely. Each month our school received commodities from the Federal School Lunch Aid. These help out alot! Y I 2.9
