Flikkema HFJPDK ll' ASSEMBLY ROOM JOKES To everyone's surprise Isaac Van Der Myde had a calling down by one of our faculty the other day. Teacher in charge of Assembly Room: What is all that commotion about back there ? Freshie: I guess you'd make a commotion too if you were trying to get a note across two empty rows of seats. Freshies insist on walking up on the platform, to the amuse- ment of the upper classmen. Ruth Stevens persists in making various and many trips to the waste-basket and pencil-sharpener. Don Mericle tried to sleep in peace, but nothing doing, Dwight Harrington Won't stand for any shirking on the job. vkikikikblf OUR BOYS The High School gave a party, Their friends by hundreds came. Our soldiers boys were there, 'Twas given in their name. The boys had just returned From somewhere hack in France, To help out with the eats. And join the merry dance. Mr. Evans made a speech. The High School sang their songs, Dressed in their very best, They thrilled the happy throngs. It was a great success, A night of keenest joys, So Rah! For Morrison High And all her soldiers boys.

Tw HIGH SCHOOL CHORUS Hlfflfbkbkvlf One of the most pleasant half hours of the day is music period with Miss Ely as the Instructor. The Chorus has learned many new songs this year ani the students take a great deal of interest in them. One of the interesting features has been Victrola music. There are some splendid records of many of the most famous musicians and the chorus has become acquainted with them in this Way. The High School sang some selections at the Soldiers' Wel- come reception and their efforts were met with a great deal of enthusiasm. Wie GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Hlfilfilfifvlf The Girls' Glee Club was late in organizing because of the hindrance of the influenza epidemic, but for a late beginning they have advanced into a talented chorus. Miss Marjorie Ely is their instructor, Grace D. Johnston their President, Edna E. Mathew their Vice President, and Lealyn M. Kidd their secretary and Treasurer. The Club is practicing songs for a festival to be given in the spring.
