Freshie -Come and enjoy yourself. CHe came.j The entertainers were declared excellent. Mrs. Vernon surprised them with a delightful reading. Bright Boy-Are pearls animals? Pearl L. Vernon-The kind you know are. fReferring to herself. of course.j Miss Sherman gave a reading, but only the French pupils were capable of understanding it. No doubt she said something about some Freshie who was unable to understand her. Mr. Judson attracted special attention, for he wore a dress suit. He performed several of his magic tricks, but, of course, the bright Freshiesu were capable of seeing through them all. Sev- eral of the tallest boys were asked to ride kiddie-kars. but they were unable to do so. Every one wondered why. Games were played, after which re- freshments, consisting of brick ice cream, cake and marshmallows, were served. On the stroke of ten the foolish ones paddled home in the rain, vot- ing the Freshmen a star group of entertainers. The Freshies look forward to their Sophomore year, because then they can look upon the Freshies as they have been looked upon.

S. curriculum now includes Agriculture, Domestic Science, His- tory. Mathematics, English, French, Latin, Economics, journalism, Natural and Physical Sciences and Physical Training. The first two departments have been added and standardized this year. AGRICULTURE Agriculture is taught according to the Smith-Hughes plan and includes two years' work in farm crops, accounting, and farm management. The project work of the year has been especially profitable to neighboring farms, orchards and gardens, while the field trips were the envy of the whole school Cexcept the hog sale expeditionj. The class has eighty minutes per day in the class room and laboratory under Mr. Judon's supervision, with outside proj- ect work as advocated by Smith-Hughes law. Une of the pleasant features of the year was furnished by the Ag Club aggregations, and the scientific accuracy of the officials of these meetings has really become alarming. As yet they have admitted no girls, even to the social hour. Mr. Judson is also the efficient instructor in Science, and coaches athletics. DOMESTIC SCIENCE The department of Home Economics might have enrolled all of the forty-six boys on registration day had it not been that the laboratory was only equipped for twenty girls. Mrs. Vernon has charge of the work, so you know why the class is the most interesting in the whole curriculum. The clothing unit occupied eight periods per week, and the sewing laboratory was equipped with sewing tables, Singer machines, fitting forms, electric irons, and charts, as demanded by Smith-Hughes law. After the girls had learned to wear thimbles they progressed rapidly and covered a unit of work in pattern-drafting, decorative work, garment construetion, and wash dress projects, not omitting the' inevitable darning and patching problems. The work in Home Management was condensed and correlated with the Clothing and Food units, and the various homes were furnished with all equipment from an iceless ice machine to a paring knife. This work was both new and interesting, but the food work received the almost unanimous vote of the class as to interest and practical worth.
