Dear Maria: I hav herd thet Gofer Prary hasn t any Junior Hi Skools we hav, and Ill tell u about it It 1s a skool for 9th graders, but we let the 7th and 8th graders in becuz we think thet sum day they mite becum 9th graders, but per- sonelly I think thet there is little hope fer sum of ,em. Our halls are brite and cheerful so if u don't know yer lessuns, the teechers let u go out there. 'We hav two luvly gims The girls use thers as a sort of dressin rum to put ther klose 1n wen they go down to the pool to kleen up The boys use thers to run laps in wen there naughty We hav many klubs The pupils who do not belong to these spend most of ther leesure time studying If u want to git thin I suggest the kafeteria. Just git in line, the others will do the rest. Wen I first went ther I thot of Floyd Collins who had a live tun pressure on him. We hav a good many janitors. Ther cheef dooty is to chase us out at noon so we will take our ten deep breaths of fresh air. I hav now told u the princaple parts of a Junior Hi Skool. All except the teechers. I am sory I cannot tell u why we hav them becuz I do not know. Your chum, Pauline Reubens.
