That’s ail right, Steve. Mary Reapsome's friend stays at the Newporter Hotel. What’s his name Mary? Betty Heisey has recently transferred her affections from Ickesburg to Harrisburg. He has a brother in her class. Can you guess? Elwocd Remely seems to talk about nothing except the trip to Philadelphia, •f course the girls on the train didn’t have a thing to dc with it. I’ve heard that quite a few girls received housecoats, cosmetic sets, and Jewelry for Christmas gifts. Mary Bowers seems to have her eyes on a little red head, Robert Flickenger by nqme. I bet Aleta Nickle writes plenty of letters since a South Second Street visitor left town. How are you coming along v ith your guitar lessons, Ralph? Martha Hultzapple is often late for school in the mornings, I wonder if dates are not the cause.. • ' Who's that graduate of '38 that Bill Mitchell has been dating lately? Who is it Jane? ne night she is seen walking with Bossernan and the next night Bob Jones is on her porch. Erva Byers and Irene Rice have been seen with the same boy recently. you couldn't guess because he isn't from here; he is from Ickesburg, What's this I hear about Martin Kiner taking Phyllis Ench to the movies? We wonder when Dick Fatterson will have his first date. He seemed to make out all right in the play. Why wouldn't he in real life? The following is taken from The Pereseope, Carlisle High School's paper, Carlisle had considerable trouble throughout the entire game with Newport’s Bill Buffington, who broke up many of our passes. Keep up the good work, Bill I We wonder who will get the leads in the operetta? • t I'll be seeing you next month.

Junior. Red Cross Items The recent Activity Night sponsored by the Junior Red Cross Council was a complete success; The gate receipts totaled $72,06, Forty-three dollars ($43) of this was clear «oney. The students couldn't kick about old Santa Clau3 not bringing them presents this year. Even the teachers faired well. Di ] you notice the now knit beauties on the girls' heads? I'm referring to the Parka Hoods. It looked like Santa was veil supplied with them this year because almost all the girls received one. Have you been out at the dam since Christmas? It also looked like Santa brought a lot of ice skates to the boys and girls. Helen Rush got a pair of ice skates and she fell so many lle»cs that she needs new snow pants now. Santa brought a lot of proiiy dresses to the girls also. They showed them off at the Christmas Senior dance and the Alumni dance. Since then the Red Cross has been busy. They furnished the ice-cream for the Baby Clinic Christmas Party held in the American Legion Home. Jranges were sent to the County Home at Christmas. No definite date has been made for the next county meeting. WOOPS! Oh! You heard many expressions like these one week because the pupils were slipping and sliding over the floors. This was because Mr. Newlin, the janitor, oiled the floors over the weekend. The floors looked very nice and the oil keeps the dust down. The pupils won't kick about the oiled floors because it makes the school building inside look more attractive and some of them have fun slipping and watching some one let his books drop a» a re- suit of slipping. Ask Mrs. Myers, the Red Cross Nurse, if she likes the oiled floors. Bill Numer received a watch from Santa. Ralph Kline got a jacket. (To prepare him for cold weather). Zoe '.Vagner -received a log chain braoelet. Santa.:brought many m»»e things but they cannot all be listed here. What They Think About ' 3ym' Theresa Nickel thinks the exercises are hard.

Irene Donsall is back with us again after her appendicitus operation? The girls think Alvin Fossleman is awfully cute? Betty Smith is becoming very sophisticated? Hazel Peterman blushes when the name Baker is mentioned? Shorthand is a hobby Worthwhile, they say, It means increased efficiency, Therefore, better pay. The greatest pain, however, To be derivod from it Is in the mental training and Sharpening of the wit. By this it is not meant You must have a lot to say.
