Morris Bolotowsky of Page 22 The Ninctccn 'l'liirly-one Grudnaliou Number SABINITE JUNIOR JUNE MISS REYNICK Miss Reynlck, our assistant principal went to grammar and high school in Galena, Illinois. She was gaduated from Galena High and attended ePaul Univer- sity and Chicago Normal School, graduat- ing with high honors. Miss Reyuick is famous for her justness. She is sometimes stern but always just. She is subjected to a constant flurry of ex- cltement, frantlc mothers, telephone calls, busy teachers, stern faced fathers. Nat- urally one must act quickly and decisively in the midst of such a melle. Miss Reynick taught at Von Humboldt while Miss Bcughan was there. When Miss Boughan was changed to Sabin she asked Miss Reynick to become assistant princi- pal. Mlss Reynick is responsible for many of the conveniences at Sabin.

Large audiences witnessed all three of the presentations, offered Wednesday after- noon, Wednesday night, and Thursday night. The beautiful scenery and elaborate cos- tumes delighted the spectators. The sing- ing was the keynote to the play. Some- times it was stirring, sometimes pathetic, and sometimes romantic. The students and faculty members who strove to produce a successful graduation play have had their desire realized. A v Jiiiex- .gm -may Y gg, G iga The synopsis of the story follows: King Alonzo of Castile is celebrating the anniversary of his coronation. In addition he is giving the people an opportunity to see a very rare jewel which has come into his possession and besides this he has de- cided to give his daughter's hand to The most faithful in all the realm. It develops that Don Hernandez de Cas- tile, a rich nobleman and sultor for the hand of the Princess, sent the jewel to the King as a gift and comes to the festival to win the hand of the daughter. A wandering Troubadour happens to come to the celebration and his song at- tracts the attention of the princess. A moment later the King is told that his jewel has been taken and they decide to send for a wise hermit who llves in the forest who is to try to flnd the culprit and if possible recover the gem. The hermit arrives next day and tells the king that his donkey has the mysterious power of discovering evil-doers. The donkey is taken into a dark passage and all are asked to pass through and stroke his hack which has been blackened with soot. As 'hey come out of the dank passage all the people have one hand black. The trouba- 'lour has neither hand black because he did not stroke the donkey's back. This 'mrands him as the culprit and he ls taken to the judges to whom he admits having 'alien the gem and hidden it because he 'md recognized lt as the ill-fated gem of Boabdil, the last of the Moorish Sultans 'n Spain, which had an evil spell cast over it years ago and that misfortune would pursue the owner. The troubadour re- fuses to tell where he hid the jewel and 's sentenced to the dungeon for llfe. The princess tells the court jester, however. that she saw him hide it and they find it. The hermit notices that the evil charm which had rested on the gem has been lifted because of the youth's noble inten- fContinucd in Next Colmmll THE SULTAN'S JEWEL-Cont. tion.

Don't be tried for the same thing that Willie Careless Stu- dent was tried for by the court of Room 204 April 21. This interesting trial was staged for the purpose of impressing upon the chil- dren of Sabin the importance of careful- ness and cleanliness.

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.

I had forgotten my Chi- cago relatives and was glad to hear the news. It seemed strange that all of a sud. den we were going to take a trip on a train and I was immensely happy as it seemed as though we had lived in Fayetteville all my life, although it was only four Years. I was so overjoyed that I ran out to tell my friends soon after dinner. When Doro- thy heard the news she became so un- happy and surprised that she sat down upon our steps and cried. As I put my arms about her she vowed that she would come along if it were to the other end of the world. My last night in Fayetteville was spent at Dorothy's house. When I came home ln the morning, all of our fur. niture had been packed and we were to be ready that afternoon to leave our house. As I came with my mother, sister, and brother, to say goodbye to Dorothy's folks I was told that Dorothy was playing and that it would be better not to see her before we left. As our train pulled out of Fayetteville I did not realize that at that moment I was leaving the best years of my life be- hind me. PEARL KOSECKE, ' ANOTHER REASON FOR SABIN'S PRIDE We were proud indeed, while looking through the Daily News to find Pearl Kosecke, of room 106, SA, announced ln the W. A. B. C., a book club, as the wln- ner of a prize presented for writing the best weekly report. The prize book report was written on Tranquillity Houself, a mystery story. We are proud to reprint the following report which recently ap- peared in the Daily News. The pnize this week goes to Pearl Kosecke, 1505 North Hoyne Avenue. She writes: 'Tranquillity House', by Augusta H. Sea- man, is a delightful story of mystery and adventure for girls. 'Elslleth Curtis and her sister, Con- stance, are the chief characters of the story. When they are very young they come to live at Penryd, New Jersey, a dear, little, old-fashioned village cozlly situated on the banks of a tiny, lovely river. Next door to their cottage is old, rambling Tranquillity House. They spend much of their time there with the owner, Mr. Benham. One day Constance, while get- ting a book for Mr. Benham sprained her ankle. Mr. Benham insists that they stay there, because, he says, that it is his own fault. The spraining of the nnkle led to the discovery of an old chest, then the mystery begins. Constance and Elspeth, after working hard, finally solve the mys- tery and bring back to Mr. Benham his long lost nephew. At the end all are happy andkMr. Benham rewards them for their wor .' 'I enjoyed this book because it is mys- terious and adventurous, but most of all because it is mysterious. I am sure every one likes a mystery, at least I do, don't you?' 'The W. A. B. C. Club shall welcome newcomers to their club. Several mem- bers of the book club have written to say that they hope to see it reinstated in Sen. tembcr. Let us have votes from the rest '1fyou, so wc shall know what to do. GOLDEN KEYS A bunch of golden keys are mine, To make each day with gladness shine: Excuse me, Beg your pardon, too When by mistake some harm I do. I'll use my little Thank you key. Good-morning. is the golden key That unlocks every door for me. And close the door of each glarl day: When evening comes, Good night, I S9-Y. When at the table, If you please I take, from off my bunch of keys. When friends give anything to me, Or if unklndly harm I've given XVlth Sorry! I shall be forgiven. On a golden ring these keys I'll bind This is its motto, Be ye klnd I'll often use each golden key, And then a child polite I'll be. Hearts like doors swing wide with ease When I insert my little keys. And don't forget that they are these. I thank you, slr, and If you please. Lillian Sanuk, 2 0 3.
