V R 24 The Hermiad one of the grammar school pupils who visited Plainfield High School should prove of interest: SUB-FRESHMAN DAY fltaymond Young-Sterling Grammar Schooll Friday, April 25, we Started out in the school bus for Plainfield High School. We arrived there about eleven o'clock. Our main purpose in going was to become acquainted with the school and its studies and to inspect the building. First we went to the auditorium and waited about fifteen minutes, when we were provided with a guide who took us through the building, in groups of ten. Pupils were present from Plainfield, Moosup, Wauregan, Central Village, Jewett City and Sterling. Our guide first took us to the commercial law room where the students were so busily engaged that I thought that one of them, sitting at the teach- er's desk, must be the teacher, but found out later he was only a student. We went next to the chemistry, science, and biology rooms but we heard re- citations only in the science room. I was very much interested in the equip- ment in the biology department. After passing through several class rooms, we went to the library where we saw several silver cups which were won by members of the ball teams. The girls marched and the boys practiced in the physical education period. The gymnasium is well equipped for all sorts of sports and games. Wle were served with a nice lunch in the domestic science department by the pupils of that branch during the noon hour. After lunch we listened to recitations in the history, French and mathematics classes. W'e then went to the typewriting and bookkeeping rooms which were splendidly equipped for work in these subjects. At half past one we assembled in the auditorium and enjoyed a musical program given by some of the students, and listened to an address by Mr. John L. Chapman, superintendent of the school. We returned home in the bus after having spent a very pleasant day. I was very glad to have had the opportunity to visit Plainfield High School. It is a beautiful building, well equipped for good work, and I know I shall enjoy attending it next year. -
