in ten easy lessons or something. Let's go back upstairs now. We have to pass the rifle range. It always kinda scares me in here, all those bullets whizzing around. Come on, let's hurry! Q Gosh, l'm neglecting you-l almost forgot to show you the auditorium. You really should have been in there last night. They were having a rehearsal of Our School's first Min- strel Show. And people from the stage crew kept popping up to want to know what curtain or back drop to use. More fun! But what have we here today? Ah! an orator. Let's stay and hear him. After assembly l'lI leave you here to browse through a copy of Our Sachem, which has just come from the press, while l go on to my class. ln the first section of the book you will get better acquainted with Our faculty and classes, in the next with Our clubs, and in the third with Our activities. So long . . . l'll see you after my last class. Page 13

ln-.. Hmm Now for our school's very favorite room. You've guessed it-the cafe- teria! This noon you'lI see the ice cream counter so crowded you'll have to wait simply hours to get waited on-at least it always seems hours. See those girls over by the locker?

Maybe the ele- vator man will let us bum a ride down to the basement. That's where the R.O.T.C. rooms are, you know. Army life at Our School isn't all just learning to shoot a rifle and things like that. This looks like a class in military tactics, Let's see now-this officer is saying that the infantry should follow the cavalry from Point A to Objective B. Inter- esting, isn't it? Let's see what's going on in the next room. Oh, this is the study room-l guess they're finding out how to become a Major--General Page 12
