JUNE The Nineteen Thirty-one Graduation Number bABINITE JUNIOR Page 19 2216 W. Hirsch Blvd., Chicago, Illinois, April 16, 1931. Dear Parents: I am writing you a letter to tell you of the many things I can do to make our city clean. Of course if a city ls clean lt is more healthful and more beautiful to live in. When I say to keep our city clean I do not mean that one person should clean the whole city, I mean that one person should clean everything around that one person. We could start out by keeping ourselves clean inside and out. If we keep ourselves we want everything around to be clean clean. We should see that our desks are clean. Now we can begin cleaning our seeing that it is spick and span. home, We can also keep the sidewalks clean and we can mow the grass in our garden. Wo should see to it that the back as well as the front of the house is kept clean. I am also writing to tell you that I shall go along with my fellow students with the motto of Clean-up and Paint-up during Clean-up Week. Of course I shall try to clean-up and paint-up all the year around. Your loving daughter, Molly Shapiro, 303. 9A. 2016 Le Moyne St., Chicago, Ill., April 17, 1931. Dear Mother and Dad: Chicago, through the effort of our ener- getic new mayor, Anton J. Cermak, has set aside from April 20 to May 2 to clean uD our city outslde and in. As many of our great men and cities have started from the bottom up I think lt would be a. good idea for our city to follow-to clean-up its citizens, then its schools, then its homes, then its streets, and last but not least its government. I think we children can do as much in our sphere as you older people can in yours. We could do ourselves a SPCR'- favor both physically, mentally, and morally, by cleaning and keeping clean our own bodies and clothes. Our School and homes also need attention and I insist that with some whole-hearted co-operation on the part of the children, men, and women of this city we could make our municipality one of the cleanest, safest, and healthiest places to live in, in T-he world. Your loving son, Arthur Retchln, Room 111-9B. 2216 Hirsch Street, Chicago, Illlnols, April 16, 1931. Dear Parents: Clean-up Week, what a date! Attics to clean, cellars to clean, the whole house ln other words. For cleanliness, beauty, and civic pride the dates April 20 to May 2 have been officially set aside for a good clean-up. But Clean-up does not mean between these dates alone. Every day ln the year should be the motto. But since every clean, industrious housewife must start their annual spring house-cleaning. the dates April 20 to May 2 is ln their favor. In two weeks the smoke covered houses can look like palaces. Clean-up, Paint-up and Planting-up can be done. The chllldren can do odd jobs around the house. Rooms can be cleaned and painted. The yard can be transformed into a beau- fConiinucd in, Next Columnj THE WINNING CLEAN-UP LETTERS The girls and boys of Sabin wrote let- ters on Clean-Up.

And this can be done. As lt ls said, you must see that your own steps are clean before advising others. And so it is for ourselves as to everybody else. For civic pride ls the clty's motto. Hoping we will do our share ln the work. Your loving son, Geo. 0. Delaney. April 16, 1931, Sabin Jr. H. S-, 2216 Hirsch St., Chicago, Illlnols. Dear Mom: Clean-up.week starts on the twentieth of April. Boy! that means work tyou know spring house-cleanlngl. When we get started lt'll look like a tornado, but when wc're done lt'll look like a million dollars. By the way, Mom, where's the shoe polish? I forgot where I put it the last time I used it: where are all my ties? Guess I'll have to hire a detective to flnd them. They're getting particular about those things now. tSo am 1.3 They any the girls got us beat but we'll show them. We'll have to ask the landlord to pulnt the house. Look out! Don't faint! He might do lt. I almost forgot wo'll have to clean the stove pipes, too. But just like the mayor wants, the dirtiest job won't stop us! Your loving son, Veto. P. S. Fit Via Vi, energy wins the way. Ita tradunt, so they say. Veto Zabohonskl, Room 305-9A. 2216 Hirsch Street, Chicago. Illinois, April 16, 1931. Dear Parents: Dld you know that Clean-Up Week ls almost here? Well, it's coming soon, April 20 to May 2. In our .schlool we're going to have one of the best clean-up campaigns Sabin has ever seen. The flrst thing we shall do is to clean our lockers. We shall then proceed to clean the room and corrl- dors. Every speck of paper seen will be picked np and made a present of to the wastebasket. IConliuued in Next Columnj CLEAN-UP WEEK LETTERS-Cont. All over Chicago people are Setting ready to clean their houses. They're think- ing of how nice the house will look with a new coat of paint. The children are probably thinking of the money they will get for those old newspapers they've been saving for so long. We're all thinking of the things we're going to eat from our very own garden. When this clean-up cam- palgn starts, imagine all the unemployed people wc-rklng. This campaign will surely make Chicago a cleaner and a healthier place to live in . Your loving son, Henry M. Levinson, 203-9A. - April 16, 1931, Sabin Jr. H. S-, 2216 Hirsch St., Chicago, Illinois. Dear Dad and Mother: I have great news! Chlcago is going to be one of the cleanest and most beautiful cities of the world, and you are going to help me make it so. Mayor Anton J. Cermak has signed a proclamation naming the two-week period beginning April 20 and ending May 2 as Clean-up, paint-up, plant-up time. annual affair which I have This ls an mentioned to you in the past, and ls spon- sored by the Chicago Association of Com- merce. Ever tives of the since February, representa- Senior and Junior High Schools have been meeting at the Assocla- tilon of Commerce to promote it. Sabin has been represented by Joseph Luptak, the mayor of Sabin City, and Tony Kulak. Come on. Pals, help me to make Messrs. Luptak and Kulak's faces shine with pride the next time they attend an Association of Commerce meeting. Well, here goes. How can you help me? Supply me with an apron, a broom, and a scrubbing brush. then stand aside and watch me make Old Man Dirt fly. Hand me a garden-to-be, some garden lmple- ments. my penny-packet seeds, a palr of overalls, and watch me plant what you will call the garden of Eden ln a few months. Give me that sad, grey, fence, some white paint and a brush, and after my work is over, a smile of satisfaction and pride. Well, Dad and Mother, are you willing. Old Pals? Yes? I knew lt! Thanking you with all my heart, Your daughter, Evelyn. Evelyn Kesner, Room 311-9A. Dear Parents: The year ls composed of four seasons: winter, spring, summer, and autumn. I wish I could add another season. I would call it the season of cleaning But since that is impossible, Anton J. Cermak ln- stead signed a proclamation to have two weeks of cleaning. This short cleaning season comes in the most beautiful season of the year. Do you know when that ls? Yes, lt comes ln spring, beginning on April 20th and end- ing May 2nd. Everything that sleeps dur. ing the winter wakens with a new life in spring. The sunshine, the sweet smelling flowers, the budding trees all contribute to make spring more lovely and beautiful. Therefore, why should we not also wake with new life and zeal and contribute our CConfinurd on Page 24, Col. 22

Be careful Sablnitesl The judge is after all children who do not keep things clean around the premises. Don't be tried for the same thing that Willie Careless Stu- dent was tried for by the court of Room 204 April 21.

THE BOARDED-UP HOUSE The Boarded-Up House, by Seamen. is a good mystery story. It is about a house that has been closed and left vacant for a number of years. The story tells about two friends who explore and find out a number of things about its mysteries. The two girls learn all about the people who formerly lived there. To know more about this mysteri- ous Boarded-Up House, read the book. I know you will like all of Seamen's books. Some of her others are: 1. Tranquillity House 2. Edge of Raven Pool 3. The Girl Next Door 4. Sapphire Signet, etc. P. 4 DRAMATIC CLUB By Artema I-'lucldlestone The dramatic club of P. 4 is conducted by Miss Shubert. The officers are PFBS.. Evelyn Shefner, Sec., Anna Melkin. This club is devoting all its time to plays such as Little Women, The Frog. UFHUY- The Enchanted Door and The Prickley Prince. They hope to give some of these plays before the assembly of both UIJDGI' and lower grades. MRS. SANGER SPEAKS A thrilling and entertaining lecture was given in the Sabin Auditorium Thursday, April 16, at 1:45, by Mrs. Sanger, mother of the popular Mr. Sanger, printing teacher at Sabin. The subject was Yellowstone Park, the land of a million wonders. Mrs. Sanger is a noted world traveler, lecturer and radio artist, who, through the medium of the silver screen took the Sabin- ites to Geyser Land. The admission was 100. The students eagerly listened to the mlratlves told by Mrs, Sanger. She described wonderful eeysers, tame hears, and other marvelous features of Yellowstone National Park. The students expressed admiration for the lecture and hope that some day Mrs. Sanger will return with another exciting story. By Sid Harris. THE CRIME IN THE DUTCH GARDEN By Sam Mermelatein, 310-BB Who hated Miss Querdling so much that he pushed a heavy statue on her head? This was the question asked everywhere, when Miss Querdling was found with a broken statue lying next to her head in a Dutch garden. At flrst the suspicion pointed to Evelyn Querdling and her sweetheart, Llonee Duckworth, but thy had an alibi. At the inquest the chauffeur told of seeing a strange car on the golf course. at the time Miss Querdllng was killed. This car was later found to be Stirling's car. Suspicion then pointed to Margarete Querdllng and Bill Netherlands. The mur. derer or murderess couldn't be Evelyn or Duckworth and Margarete found the body. Again suspicision turns and points to Green, the chauffeur, who said he was working on the car and went to the garage to get a hammer. Later on in the story the chauffeur is found sprawled on the table with a written confession laying next to him. What does this confession say? Who killed Green? All these ques- tions will be answered when you read The Crime in the Dutch Garden, by Herbert Adams. This book has you guess- ing all the way through and gives you a big surprise at the end. Well, anyway, Harry Ape the captain of the Washers has his team in a huddle. Just a minute folks, and I'll get their talk, Harry ls probably telling them to do or die for Old Siwash. Listen closely peoples: f'l'he Teaml Hey, John, are you taking the blond or brunette out tonight? e t.Iohn1 Naw, I like the red-head. - Announcer Now folks, after hearing those heart- stirning words, how can you help but be thrilled. KTHE GAMEJ The referee throws the ball up and Boo Bruenig, the 2 by 4 center of the' tobacco Gnawers gets the jump. He's standing on the free throw line waiting for a pass but just as he is about to get one he yells, 0uch! His ear has been bitten of! by the opposing center and now the referee goes over and slaps the offender on the wrist and calls a technical on Bruenlg for profane language. The game ends-the flrst quarter, Ladies and Gentlemen, with Slwash lead- ing 0-0. What a game, what a game, there has been so much scoring that we can't keep track of all the baskets. Now Bor,tin shoots and he misses but follows up and connects. Listen to the crowd roar. Why look! They're all asleep. That buzz you hear was not your radio but was the snoring of the crowd. Well, folks, we might as well sign off. NADITA By Virginia Campo, 310-BB Recently I read a book whose story took place in Mexico. The title was Nadlta- Nadlta is a little girl who lives with a lady called Tia. Tia has five children besides Nadlta. One day at the public fountain Nadita found a dog, a small dog. Tia said If Nadita wanted lt she could take lt, but not in the house of Tia. When you read the first page of the book it becomes interesting: when you read the last page a surprise awaits you. Many new things happen, many new friends are found in Nadita. Read the book lf possible because it is very inter- esting, but read it when you have time because you are going to be annoyed when your mother calls to wash the dishes.
