UHSGJWJ Hello, Nancy! Hi there, Bill! Awfully glad to see you. So you'd like to see what goes on around Our School? Well, we're pretty proud of Our School, and even though it isn't much different from any other, we sort of think it is. Of course, we have our moments-we get mad at each other now and then, but we don't let little things like that get us down, so we generally have a swell time. You're just lucky that you got here in time to see school start. See those teachers signing in? That's the way a day in Our School begins. But don't think that's all that happens here in the office-not by a long shot. Those girls over there must have forgotten their absence cardsg anyway, they're getting admits. Come on, now. Let's peek into the chemistry room first. Hmm, smells as if they're making chlorine, doesn't it? But don't let that bother youg let's go over and watch them. Oops, my mistake! lt isn't chlorine after all, i't's hydrogen sulfide, which smells even worse. l can't stand this-let's go! lt's a long trek down the hall to lO3, but here we are. lTeacher seems to be having trouble finding his pen, doesn't he?l This is the home of our orators and actors. Debates have been going on lately, that's a good argu- ment that boy has, isn't it? He cer- tainly makes his points with a venge- ance. Oh-oh, too much noise! Out we go and down the hall again.

The Trail's here in Room IOO. Everybody seems to be busy right now. I think they're checking galleys up there in front: but what are these boys doing? Oh, I see - they're hard at work mapping out a sales campaign. Such quiet! They must be on their good behavior. But it certainly isn't quiet across the hall in the metal arts room. Let's step over. That boy's sharpening one of his tools-it sure makes a lot of sparksl But you needn't think the boys have a monopoly on metal work. Later on there'll be a girls' classg you'll see some girls spinning bowls on lathes and others mak- ing rings and bracelets ot silver. Around here at the back ,of the building are the woodwork shop and the swimming pool. Good grief, look at that boy splashing water all over every- thingl Looks like a water spaniel. doesn't he. Page 6
