Mr. Stockwell. Mr. Stockxvell has made an ideal class adviser. This is probably due to his kindly, sympathetic, fun-loving nature, topped by the fact that he is an all-around good sport.” 'Pile first class meeting was held on the seventh of ()ctober. At this time the class organization took place. The class, aided by these officers, then began plans for tlie coming year, and entered full force into the spirit of “I” High. The first party took place .November sixth, at the home of the president. It is needless to say that everyone had such a nice time that waiting for the next one proved a not altogether easy occupation. After the Christmas vacation came to an end and school had been resumed, the Freshman boys were “initiated” at “Kangaroo Court.” The results were lnitli interesting and satisfactory, for the unlucky boys furnished amusement for upper classmen and. after all. is that not the best thing a Freshman can do? The second party given by the class was a sleigh ride, which took place late in January. Mrs. Westerson very kindly opened up her home to the class on this occasion, which went a long way to make the party as successful as it was. »£ • Thirty

The chemical substance seems characteristic of the whole can. and it is acting in a way not at all unusual in Sophomore Classes. This is what is commonly called a 'Sophomore Dance.’ The smaller and daintier of these atoms seem to be revolving about on the stage in a most miraculous manner: but larger and more stolid-looking ones seem to be sitting along the edge in a very stupid way. Yes, there does seem to be one of the heavier type of molecules who is dancing about with the smaller ones. He seems constantly in demand. I believe that the more masculine-appearing atoms, barring this one, do not know how. Let us pass on to this distilling flask.” Look.” cried Mother Hubbard. Just see that wee globule rushing about! It seems to be simply spoiling everything. See how tiny it is in comparison with the rest of the members of this group. I should call it Impishness, shouldn’t you, Air. Powers?” Some of the test-tubes contained very brilliant-looking atoms, with wise expressions. They seemed very serious-minded, indeed. Then there wre frivolous globules, which seemed constantly going in and out of a certain popular place where they sat at miniature tables and enjoyed some sort of delectable delicacy of which they seemed very fond. In every case, they all seemed to be working for the same end: in spite of their foolishness, they were all pretty generally in earnest. “Oh, Mr. Powers.” cried Mother Hubbard, 1 never can thank you enough! I am sure Hisbila will take it. even if he doesn’t like it very well. By Tommy Tucker, Who wrote this for his supper. Pane Ticcnly-nine

But it must not Ik thought that the Freshmen spent their entire time planning and attending parties, as may Ik imagined from what has just been said. So. indeed, in spite of many temptations, spring fever” lieing among the most difficult to overcome, the Freshmen did not neglect their studies. The old saying, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. is ever true, nevertheless, ami thus the good times just mentioned served only as oases on the desert of work. Xo doubt there is more than one Freshman who will feel a bit of regret mingled with the joy of the realization of the arrival of the summer vacation, which all boys and girls usually feel, for it will also be the realization of the end of the many good times which the past year has held for the members of the Freshman Class.
