THE ABRAM BREEZE 'I7 Sept. 17 - Farmington Fair, at last, and a day off! Hurray! Sept. 19 - The Seniors seem to be wear- ing out the road between the school house and North New Portland Fair Grounds. They hope to make a good profit on the fair tomorrow. Richard and Charles are staying there tonight. Here's hoping nothing carries them off although if it does, it won't be carrying off much and will certainly drop them as soon as the sun comes up tomorrow. Sept. 20 - The World's Fair, at last! The Kingfield booth did fairly well this year, considering who ran things. Week of Sept. 22 Sept. 26 - Tonight's the big night for the Freshmen, and I understand that the Sophomores are really going to initiate them in good shape.

Week of Oct. 6 Oct. 6 -- We had our first assembly ta- day with the Seniors giving the program. it consisted of a quiz in which certain stu- dents took part, and a reading by Viola Reid.

The senior boys shocked everybody by turning up with suits and ties so that proves that they do know what such things are even though you don't see them often around here. Week of Oct. 20 Oct. 21 - Today the Senior proofs got back, and they look just like us. Ye Gods! Charles Trenholm's disappeared right be- fore his eyes. Too bad they all didn't. Oct. 24 - Vantine's agent came today and by the looks of the orders from the Seniors they all intend to raise o big crop of corn next year. Week of Oct. 27 Oct. 27 - Preparations were made to- day for the Halloween Ball. Wonder why Mercurio is limping so? Could it have anything to do with the daring leap that he mode over on the wet floor which ended up with his sitting in a puddle? Oct. 28 - The Halloween Ball was a suc- cess even though there were not many hunters there because of the hunting ban. Today, also, there was a fire at Cathedral Pines. Perley Hinkley was the only one from high school who went. Oct. 29 - Movies on the fundamentals of basketball were shown today. Oct. 30 - The Student Council met to discuss committees for the carnival and the purchasing of the T-shirts. Also, today, we received the sad news that teachers' con- vention would be postponed to a later date. Oct. 31 - Tryouts scheduled for the carnival play, His First Shave, were postponed because there were no boys who could try out.

Nov. 6 - Dr. Dunlap came today for the physical check-ups so the students rushing from the bottom of the stairs to the top and back again are not out of their heads
