The eighth grade girls continue to
work on their print dresses. They
have chosen for their motto in serv
ing, ‘‘As you sew so shall you rip.’
They are trying to do very neat work
for nothing seems to disappoint them
more than to hear the teacher say,
"Take that worlt out, I think you can
do much neater work.”
Emphases is placed on the proper
use of the thimble for most of the
girls insist they can sew faster and
better without a thimble.

attention a;3 the end of the school

the negative by William Hughes and
Beverly Gary. The negative won with
a vote of 17-13.
We regret very much that Dorothy
Green has quit school. She will be

our eleven years together.
After much debating and discussion

If the suggestions from our themes
on “If I were Teacher for a Day’
were adopted, there would be manv
changes in our school. Periods would
be cut to thirty minutes.
Pupils would leave the room at all
hours and promenade in the halls. In
stead of the usual quiet in study halls
there would be loud laughing and
talking. Punishment would be un
known.
We were glad to start having chapel
again this week. Now we shall not
have so many spelling lessons.
Because of the balmy spring weath

not only >to be on time, but to wait
for half an hour until Mr. Powell un
locks the door.
