It's on Argus, With Ct capital A that means school newspaper. Argus takes polls of what Midkids want in their Christmas stockings, what they'd do if they were mayor of the City of Midwood, what they'd do to improve the school. The bird prints things about kids who do the butterfly, Win scholarships, and sell Girl Scout cookies. It looks into old customs like trick- or-trecrting and sending Valentine's Day cards. How- ever, it also discusses college opportunities, school activities, and controversial issues such as the war in Viet Nam, the teQCh-ins, and tectcher-pupil relation- ships. New or outstanding teachers and students are introduced to Midwoodites. Argus communicates news of the school to its students and thus instills in them a school spirit, a mutucd feeling. Morybe it isn't such a crazy bird after all.

It's CI certificate with one's name on it. It's dancing in the teacher's cafeteria crfter the induction. It's a theatre party during the Christmas vacation to see HLuv. It's sitting in an empty corridor With nothing to do during midterms or regents. It's an extra little boost for C: college application.
