Kinsman Literary Society of K. H. S. The Twentieth Century and Ciceronian So- cieties are literary organizations of the Jr. and Sr. High Schools which meet in Library Hall every six weeks. The aims of these societies are to broaden the minds of its membersg to discover and bring out new and hidden talent, as well as to encourage talent already discover- edg to overcome the self-consciousness of the average high school student and to prepare him for future undertakingsg for diversion of students and teachers from the daily routine of school life. Then, too, we wish to please and entertain the members of our community who are interested in our school activities. tl is the sincere wish of the graduating class that their respective societies may continue to up- hold the standards maintained in the past. -Florence and Margaret.

Liberty School The Liberty School Building was erected in 1922 at an original cost of S175,000. In 1926 an addition of six rooms was built making twenty-seven rooms in the entire building. The combined auditorium and gymnasium has a seating capacity of six hundred. The play ground and athletic field contains six acres. Liberty High School dates back to 1903 when it received a third grade charter. It was made a second grade high school in 1917, and in March, 1924, it was charted as a high school of the Hrst grade. There are sixty-six pupils in Liberty High School. Our total enrollment is four hun- dred seventy-five. Eighteen teachers are em- ployed in this school. ' XVe have two general aims in our school work. First, we aim to give our Pupils a practical education. Vocational training is emphasized for we are surrounded by urban communities. Our second aim is to train the youth of our township the importance of be- coming good citizens so they may help make this world a better place in which to live. Liberty School Busses The Liberty Township Board of Education purchased last September four Dodge-Graham school busses with McKay bodies. The pupils are transported to school and re- turn safely, promptly, and economically. Both teachers and patrons of the school are pleased with this eiiicient transportation system. A report of our transportation costs for Sep- tember, October, November and December of this school year as compared with the cost dur- ing the same months last year when the busses were privately owned may be of interest to you. During the first fourmonths of this school year 54,464 pupils were handled, 1,567 gal- lons of gasoline were usedg 18 gallons of oil, 8 gallons of alcohol, 10,401 miles were traveled with an average of 6.6 miles per gallon of gaso- line. The total expense was S2,073.27, which is ia little less than four cents per pupil each day. Transportation for 15 or 25 less pupils per day for the same four months for last year was 54,753.80 ,or 32,680.53 more than the ex- expense this year. This difference will more than pay the cost of one of the new busses.
