HOLD EVERYTHING PRESENTED SOON Hold Everything the title of the play to be presented by the Senior Class at the new Gym- Auditorium soon. Although the title refers to the story and ac- tion of the play. ‘Hold Everything' does really hold everything that goes to make good entertainment. Suspense—action-story— Interest- lug characters—aide-splitting com- eoy cltuations and dialogue—ro- manco—what more could one ask? 'there Is no fun In running a tourist home when business la bau. but when business picks up end you find your quiet rest home filled with crooks—bankers run- away sweethearts—aspiring mov- ie actors and whatnot—the time for rest la at an end. Not only does this Interesting set of char- acters meet in a quiet tourist home, but suddenly they find themselves vitally concerned In each other’s lives How they be- come Involved In this bright, snap- py story will prove more than en- tertaining—and how they extricate themselves from the tangled skein which they are woven will furnish one of the most hilarious evenings you have ever spent In a theatre. Hold Everything Is more than the title suggests. It is full to the brim and running over with good, clean, wholesome fun—the kind that will linger In your mem ory for many a day. Watch for the date for tthe treat of the season. SENIOR’S WISH FDR MRS LEE V e. as the members of the Sen- Ion Class, wish to express to Mrs. Lee our appreciation to her as our sponsor.

STUDENTS EDUCATE 8. L. TEACHERS Well, we students aren’t the on- ly ones that are learning things up here at school. The teachers have learned also, especially dur- ng mid-term examlntlons. Mr. Hearn learned that If one dozen oranges cost 30c. two oran- ges would cost 60c. Mr. Nix learned a new way to pell Chicago—SAC AGO. Mlaa Stallings was greatly sur- prised when she learned that the earth was flat. Mias Wilson learned that a su- burb was a railroad. One of her pupils wrote: T had five scents In my pocket. Mrs. Axtell was shocksd when she found out that Taxaa was the capital of the U. S. and that the Hudson River was in Texa . One student gave the word fitting the definition of nothing inside as hungry’. She also learned that a .opposed character that gives gifts on Christmas ave ia the -oachor. Mrs. Lee was Indeed surprized when she learned that Dolly Win- -mop married Silas Marner. MUs Jinkins asked: 1. What Is a tariff? What ia IU relation to political parties? Answer: Pro- ..-ctlve tariff la factories. The political parties did not want .manufacturing. Protective tar- iff did not become a problem un- til after the war of 1812 because .hey had a bank and a few slav- 33 and did not need It. Other answers that she receiv- . ora. 1. One of the provisions of tho .. eaiy at the close of the Revo- .utionary War was that England «reed to leave the SL Lawrence ,-iver where It was. -. The difference In Houston's .nd Lamar’s Indian Policies was that Lamar thought all Indiana mould bo dead and drug off. Houston thought they should be -uve and working. Mrs. Dughtrey learned that when a rich dessert Is served, .he rest of the meal should be sour, that tender cuts oi meat arc -.ound In the legs of animals, that oxrometera are used to tell tem- perature. that vegetables rich In iron are yellow, and that the op- tj nerve la the nerve leading to the brain from the middle ear. .the also learned that mustard .-taster Is made from mustard seeds and water, and should be .ett on from four to six hours. Mr. Boedeksr learned to spell center, senter, and that people had ..or roller In the counties. Mr. Edclmon learned that sounds are reproduced by the dlaphram coming up Into the vo- cal chorda. FOUR NEW STUDENTS ENTER SCHOOL Four new students have enroll- ed In the seventh grade. They are: Inez Turner. Kerrait, Texas; Hazel McCleskey, Holdenvtll. Okla- homa; Nolan Mallory. Slnton. texas. and Lewis Currey. Lone Wolf. Oklahoma. Sidney - Skinner has recently withdrawn from school. Jewel Alexander la back in school aftsr having missed some time working. FROM OLE NOSEY Dear Children, Here we are after so long a time and do we know the gossip! Babe surely likes to write let- ters. She seems to be correspond- ing with two or three boys be- Jdes Lowell. Lowell, you had bel- .sr see that It doeen't go any .’atther than corresponding. Lena Martha haa surely fallen .or Herbert. She was noticed talk .ng to him an unusual length of time the other day. The following couples were seen .ogether Friday night: Klvts He- stand and Oneta Lemons. Faye olgman and W. O. Jones. Waldo Drake and Mary Jane Smyth. Ed- na Packard and Foy Cook. Beat- rice Falknor and Leo Cook. Eloise .«oiland and Olen Cupp. Lucille Johneton and Paul Landers. Babe Kelly and Lowell Hite. Oneta seems to be rather popu- lar. She aald she had four or five chances to come to the ball gam- es Friday night, but sho turned them all down except Elvis. She and Elvis suroly had lots to talk about during the games. Mary Jane didn’t seem to enjoy Friday night until after the game was over and she was seated by Waldo. J. E. Harland and Bill Vlcaent were seen escorting two Amherst girls to the car Fiiday. We '«on- er what this could mean. Travis la atill trying to hook Ke- cll but he la too Interested In Ol- eta. What doea Clota Belle do these days? Is she remaining true to Walter and to Everllt? It seems that Hollis Bills has up a real caso at lazt. He gels a jreat kick out of writing lettera to Loulae Wright and letting her wear hla closs pin. I saw Margaret holding Her- bert’s hand the other uay. Now. what does this mean? Don't dare tell Jimmie Sue. Jimmie Sue told Roberta that she didn't have tlmo to write him a letter. Who Is him, Jimmie Sue’ Letter writing seems to be all the go at Spring Lake. The oth- er day Hollis carried a letter In tils pocket from a seventh grade girl, and the same day. she read one from him. Louise seems to be the most beautiful name Hoi Ila ever heard. Junior said. Hol- lis is Jealous of me because I think Louise Is pretty.” Amie Lee Allen was wearing Oneta Lemons coat the other day. Is It possible Arnie is falling at ast? We heaid Junior tell Elsie the other day that close friends al- ways quarreled. We have been observing that Junior and Lena Martha quarrel a lot. We heard that Errnma Lee was going to get married! Wonder who the lucky one la? She counts the days. We’ll let you know more about this later. So long. NOSEY NEW STUDENT ENTER SPRING LAKE There has been one new stu- dent enrolled at the Spring Lake High this week. She Is Margie Faye Montgomery, classified as a zophumore.

He was coming around the comer of the house pretty fast, when the bus drove up. Did he change his mind and decide to get out of sight? You should have seen him. Rosie, can't you see? Monday ahe started down the hall looking for Elsie, after falling to find her she came back to room 16 and she was sitting about two seats from where Rosie had been sit- ting. Joe says he ate twenty-seven biscuits one morning. What a man! We thought he didn't like anything better than peanuts. That Toby Shelby Just whispers all the time. Goodness She must know lota of secrets. Now we have been watching J. E. and Wanda Lou and how they act around each other. All we have been able to make out of It Is Just a “very sweet friendship.” However we are still watching to see just how U will turn out. There Isn't much room to wond- er why Arnold is so fond of Mo- dette. What boy wouldn't be when she can play basket ball so well (and has three more years to play). THOUGHT OF THE I KK Selfishness Is that detestable vice which no one will forgive in others, and no one la without In himself.—H. W. Beecher.

ROSE PETALS These students surely aro changeable. One minute they arc full of pep and the nextthey are drowsing around. We also notic- ed from the facial expressions that several of the students have been ill and are ctlll under that influence. Maybe that accounts for it all. Several of the students have been overheard saying their new year's resolutions. We think it is one of the best things a person can do. Many times wo make re- solutions and fail to keep them Even If we do not keep them, wo have accomplished something for trying. It is better to make them and break them than not to make them. Many of us need to make resolutions toward our school work. Be loyal, patient, obedient, respectful and one who works to the finish. The auditorium-gymnasium is nearing completion. These good ole Spring Lake ••kids” surely do deserve it too. Although they hove played out in bad weather during years past, they never lost that united rage for something to' do. Now the gym has given them new hope and something to look forward to. Some of the girls who are not playing basketball have been sell-1 ing candy to help the basketball teams. When the candy is sold, an official basket ball will be giv- en to the teams by the Arm- strong Company of Martel. Tenn.' For this reason, If no other, we should show appreciation to the coaches who made it possible! and to the girls who patiently sell each day at noon. Education “Every man must educate him-. self. His books and teachers are but helps: the work is his.”—Web ster. Honesty There is only one failure in life possible, and that la not to be true to the best one knows.”—Far- rar. The basket ball boys and girls and the coaches have received new sweat suits. These suits are made of heavy cotton Jersey They are gold trimmed In green. Twelve suits were received for the girls and ten for the boys. GYMNASIUM ANI» AUDITORI- TO BE OPENED SATURDAY In answer to the ever growing - uestlon When are we going to t to see a game In the new lym, three games with no ad- .lisrlon charge is to be the fare or the fans Saturday night. Jan. when the Wolverines engage the cagers from Hart Camp tor i urat home game for the Spring Lake teams this year. Fol- •jwinj the two school games will 3€ the second encounter between he Olton Outlaws anB the Pun- ,;ln Center Pirates. Visitors are asked to bring '•■ I'kJts If the weather is cold as the heating plant has not yet w.j.i completed. Exceptionally fast games are x peeled, due to the fact that ihe playing floor has been es- pecially treated to prevent a sllpery surface. Two coats of All „:oiicsn Oymnaslum finish, a resin compound, to provide a per- .ecl playing floor. Bleachers for more than four '-.undred spectators has been pro- .ded. Every seat in the building will provide an unobstructed view of the entire playing court. According to Mr. Boedeker and Mr. Edelmon. the crowd for the oopening games will tax the seat- ing capacity of the building to I. limit. Following the opening games, the Wolvcilnes will meet Frlona chiefs, district champions of last year from district 1. here Tues- day. Jan 12. Having suffered two defeats at the hands of the chiefs this year, the Wolverines hope to get re- venge before a home crowd here next Tuesday. NEW STUDENTS ENTER SPRINGLAKE Three new students have en- tered Spring Lake High School since the Christmas holidays. Oneta Lemons, from Amherst has entered the Freshman class Her subjects are English 1. Al- gebra 1. and History. J. C. Wright, a sophomore, is from Bulo. He Is taking Eng- lish It. Algebra 1. and Agricul- ture 1. Rennie Hays, who has attended Spring Lake before. Is a fresh- man. His subject are English 1 History 1. Algebra 1. and Agricul- ture I. CHIEFS WIN OVER WOLVERINES TUESDAY' Showing Improvement even in defeat, the Wolverines went down fighting before the experience Cagers from Friona In a double header there Tuesday. January 4. by scores of fll to 12 and 35 to 16 for theglrls and boys respec- tively. Both teams held their oppon- ent to a clearer score than those of the games played Dec. 18 in the Frlona Tournament. RESOLUTIONS FOR STUDENTS At the beginning of a new naturally turn their thoughts to ••-ar the Spring Lake students the mistakes they have made the part year and they resolve to cot rest them. Resolutions that every student in high school should make and carry out la to study harder and get all work In the day It is due. This makes It much easier for the teachers to grade the papers and they will give you a better trade than they would If you handed the paper In a week or •wo after it was due. When a make-up slip is issued offer you have been absent get It 'n and save the teachers the trouble of hunting you up and reminding you. Be a good sport when playing basketball or any other game you •re taking part In. When you get beat laugh at your loss and you will be entitled to good sport- n-.nshlp on the part of the other team when you are victor- ious. Always obey your teachers and bus drivers and school will be moro pleasant for you the com- ing year. If you are determined to car- ry out these resolutions it will be much easier for you than It would be If you made a resolu- tion and were not determined to carry it out.

L Wolverines were defeated; the scores being 17 and 21. The girls on the string were: Ila Lewis. Mary Jane Smith. Clota Belle Sanders as forwards; Modette Lewis. Wanda Lou Bar- tee and Lucille Joston as guards. Lucille Price and Elolse Holland were the substitutes that part dur ing the gam . The Wolverines are going to Frlona to night (Tuesday) to play their second gam . Guess Who Last Week—Lowell Hite In the senior class there's a Wolverines Out Play Olton Throughout Game The Spring Lake boys won over Olton with a score of 33 to 23 In the favor of the fast playing Wol- verines. The Olton boys fumbled the bail a great deal In the first part of the game but played a much better game the last half The Wolverines played a very good game the first half but slowed up In the third quarter for a few minutes and Olton mad a bid for the gam at tlm . The scores at the half were 22 and 6 in favor of the locate. The boys who started the game were: Hite and Cox at guards. Harland and Trull at forwards, while Banka held down th center position. Th substitutes were: Drake. Bar- tee. Baggett. Price, and Hardin. FROM THE HITES Happy New Year everybody! Well. Well. Ethel seems to be getting more of a baby all the time. At any rate she fell off th bed the other night. Santa Claus surely was good to Lillian (or was It Santa Claus.) We notice that she Is wearing a new wrist watch. What ''Piice' Lillian? Mr. Nix seems to be getting forgetful in his old age (you know he Is “Grandpa now.) Saturday night he carried the keys '.o .he bus off with him and all the poor basketball kids nearly froze to death before Mr.Boeker could wire some wires together and get the engine started. W ll kids. Christmas is gone and th new year 1937 Ishere. Let's mak some resolutions and keep them. Let's strive to be better students In the futuie and try to make better grades. Say that new Gym floor is swell, to say nothing of the scen- ery and chairs. We should be proud of the structure. Hazel has never mentioned wanting to be a dancer, but she Is always trying to tap and we believe that her ambition is to become a fan dancer. Travis visited in Oklahoma dur- ing the holidays. She said she surely had a keen time because she went with her old sweetheart Sonny Boy (Carroll) Is surely smart sine Christmas W don't know what happened but even Sister Girl can't win an argu- ment ny more. But that Isn't any reason for Sonny Boy to think she won't ever win anoth- er because Sister Girl is pretty hard to out argue on certain sub- jects. Sonny Boy says he can milk. sew. cook. wash. Iron, and also eat. So he thinks he dosn’t need a wife, not even Pauline. certain one Who Is wise, witty and full of fun. He is not so large and not so old. He rolls his sleeves and never gcla cold.

As she stepped back into the room every- one got quiet except Beatrice, who seemed not to heed the Sh’s of her class mates. Mrs. Daughtrey. realizing that Beatrice had been misbehaving, sat down. turned Beatrice over her knee. and reached for a ruler, and before we real y knew It.

Re- gardless. the girls will be a lit- tle better In claas because they know that Mrs. Daughtrey rea l can us a paddle board” or a ruler. HOME ECONOMICS CORNER The second year home econom- ics girts have been studying home nursing. They have been prac- ticing making up a bed the way they are made In hospitals by nurses.

The mustard plaster and the vinegar and flour poultice was demonstrated in class by some of the students. The girls are also making mina- ture device) such as: beds, barrel hoops for holding cover up rings and pade for preventing bad sores, and blocks for elevating a bed to a desired height.

These questions n- tzred by mind when I walked In- to the press club room Monday. I noticed several article assign- ments still on the board. I very quickly noticed thot there was only on student working on an article. I’m as guilty c» anyone, but together let’s resolve to do our duty toward our paper. Each week took on the bulletin board to find your assignment ami then start working on It Immed- iately. Do not wait until the edi- tor remind; you of It naif a doz- en times. By so doing wc will help make our paper a success. Let's start a new semester with a new determination to work. Once Charles Dickens was arked the secret of hla success. he ic- pllcd that It was due to herd work and ?. motto which ho had faith- fully lived up to: Whatever is worth doing is worth do.net well. If we do not plant Unowicdg i when young. It will give us no rhade when wc are old’’—Lord Chesterfield. Some of the rooms rre not kept rs neat as thoy should be. If wc arc neat we'll keep our surround- ings neat Dr. Whitaker says that neatness and It; reserves or al- most c. certain test of moral char- rcter. For this reason and to help our Janitor, let’a use a little com- mon sens: and remembrance and keep our rooms more in order.
