April l.- Miss Rowland has quite a sense of humor. When we came to American History Class she told us we would have a test and then when the groans had subsided,she lifted the map from the board and written on the board was April Fool. 4.- The Shorthand Preliminary was held today. 9.- The B1-County Chorus was picked. There are 20 lucky ones or perhaps I should say, unlucky ones chosen each year. l5.- The big party of the fear was held after returning from the District Commercial Contest at Yates City. We felt pretty good, not only because we won second at the contest but because the girls for once had the pleasure of inviting the boys to a party. You probably have guessed it, this party was a Leap Year Party. l6.- Everything seems to be happening at once. We won first place at a triangular track meet in Biggsville. Our speech contest is tonight, l8.- We d1dn't do so well at the Warren County 'Track Meet in Monmouth today. We won a few firsts but we came in third in the whole meet. 29.- Our music was well attended. I always enjoy it.

The rest of the day was very success- ful. 24.- Finally the basketball and track boys will be re- warded fer they are guests at a banquet given in their honor at Parke's Cafe. 26.- Baccalaureate!
