Emil does this pretty well, save for the fact that he forgets the tune, and sings America, the Beautiful, instead. After this an Armenian dance is given hy Charles Galhank. Emil's next class is Sensihle Topics and Geometry. The question for dis- cussion today is: Resolved, ls it right to skip school? Miss Zietnel resolves that it is, while G. Lynes resolves that it isn't. The debate ends with Emil's highly applauded resolution, that it is all righ't to skip school as long as it is done only five days out of the week. A series of bells then ring without any apparent reason. After this, There's a pause in the day's occupation, known as the dinner hour. CWith apologies to Eugene V. Delis and Kentiord Nelsonj After that, Emil returns, and gossips in the hall until the ever vigilant Miss Leystork places the point of her pencil firmly in his eye. After adjusting his eye, Emil takes a drink, gets his papa's tie wet, and ascends to Miss Drefun's English class. Here he learns that te, often follows the letter 'h', and is in turn fre- quently follows by double fl'. During the recitation, little Pearl W. enters to visit the class. Miss Drefun places her gently on the desk among other little articles. Suddenly tiny Pearl points vigorously at Harold I., and cries out, Has that funny hoy got a toof-ache, he looks so crossl Emil's next class is a course in dice- shooting and hoxing, conducted hy Miss Dogiran. Harold K. gives a little talk on 'Graceful Dancingf while Delta Sorenson speaks on 'Seven Ways of Making People Blushf The class is closed hy the little ditty, 'Vamp a Little Lady,' sung hy the Misses Mona Volkert and Edna Iensen. Emil spends the next two hours in finding his hat and coat in the lower hall. His are the ones left after everyone is gone. With a sigh Emil goes out, leaving the High School to darkness and Benny Kimpel. - A junior. ra X 'X I ' K n . 'ilill lg t, ll N ft' ,, 'X pf ' c .Io .

With a bound he jumps out of bed and begins to dress. In twenty minutes he has tied up his broken shoe- lace, stolen his father's best tie, and washed behind his ears. ln the next tititeen minutes, he drinks two glasses of water, and eats a shredded wheat, some toast, and a dubious egg. Grab- bing his book, he makes a dash tior the tiront door and starts for school. Alas, he has forgotten his theme paperl He dashes back, seizes his theme cover and a car check, and runs all the way to the corner-just in time to see the semi- annual street-car toddling merrily down the street about a block away. He does the frisco on the sidewalk in his anger. He begins to run schoolward. Ah, mel he reaches the Halls of Learning at 8:20l With a look of pitiful dejection, he creeps into his roll call room, and glances tiurtively around. The teacher turns towards him, throws a desk at him, and exclaims in awful tones, Emil Perrick, -vou're latelu As Emil rushes into the hall, Henry S. playfully tosses a locker at him. l'll excuse him, thinks Emil, as he measures his length on the floor. Children will be children. Poor Emil now comes to the worst. Trembling, he confesses to Miss Kater- whit that he is late. The aforesaid lady looks at him so hard that her eyes cross, and says in sweet tones, Next time, Emil, you won't sleep so late. Down- hearted Emil descends to Miss Godsar's class, where he learns that the verb fn becomes obsolete in the genitive case of the ablative absolute. This is a horrible disappointment to Emil, and he deter- mines to commit suicide, but one look at Lester L. reassures him. Miss Larcke has charge ot' Emil's next class. As soon as he enters, Miss Larcke's deep bass voice shrieks out, We will now sing, 'Au Clair de La Street-lightf
