Fog Horn ,-------,-------------- Telling the story of our year Solon High School .-Xlthough our school may be small in size. we certainly have our share of fun and excite- ment. We have many extra-curricular activi- ties such as The Courier. Solon Starlets. Crafts Club. Leathercraft Club. softball. baseball. and basketball. Uur bus driver. Linwood Tuscan, tother- wise known to students as Tuc J is very ac- comodating about taking us to activities held in other towns. He is very interested in all the students. joining in all arguments. which may include anything from cars to horses. fllr. Dean. the teacher who drives our smaller bus. is also a great tease. delighted when the students strike back with a better joke on him. Both join in the games on the schoolground. Manual Training The manual arts course has been returned to our curriculum, with Mr. Raymond Dean as the instructor, Many girls made a mad dash to sign up for the course and were surprised to find they would be allowed to take it. Compet- ing against the boys. the weaker sex certainly make a terrific racket tthey aren't talking either il l Some boys devote part of the time to the study of automobile mechanics. The classes turn out many interesting and useful articles. Tonette Band Something new has been added! Last fall twenty-eight pupils in the lifth to eighth grades received a new musical instrument. the tonette. At almost any hour one may hear these ton- ettes. .-Xt home the young musician must choose between two things, either practicing faithfully despite sister's and brother's angry commands to Stop that noisel . while father suddenly disappears, leaving mother vainly trying to keep ----,-----------s,------,, .,.gnu!lvS 9f peace in the family: or not practicing. only to hear a lecture by Mrs. Andrews. who has charge of tonette band rehearsals in the absence of Klr. Alpert. the music supervisor. 5
