28 THE CHRONICLE Helen Barry informed the Ancient History Class that her historical biography was to be on Pluto. (Just an example of how the movies affect the modern generation.) Did you hear Mr Nettleton’s emphatic command to the girls’ Glee Club “Don’t hold mea!” Said he to a friend sitting on a chimney: “You’re going to get all black sitting up there.” Answered the friend :“Soots me, all right.” Exchange Words of wisdom from Eddie O’Connell, heard during a courtesy talk: “When you're walking, pick up your feet and walk upon your whole sole.” Soulful, indeed! “When saying good morning to a teacher, call her by her last name instead of her first.” Not Long! Papoose: “Baw-aw-aw, I want a drink of water!” Mother Eskimo: “Hush, dear! It’s only six months until morning.” Exchange D. Cooper: “I'm as tall as you.” Cass: “No, you're not; your head doesn't come to my shoulder.” Cooper: “Well, I'm as tall as you are the other way; my feet go down as far as yours.” Mother (to teacher): “Is my boy really trying?” Teacher (earnestly): “Very.” Exchange
