SCHOOL'S OUT! TO
“TAKE IN" M ?
Vacation Is One of Longest on
Record. Owing to Highly
Popular Calendar.
Atlanta school children kept olio eye
on the clock and the other on Christ
mas shopping lists all through today's
session, and there wasn't an eye left
for lessons. Nobody could have expect
ed a boy or girl to think about the
boundaries of North Dakota or the
number of times one can insert 12 l-_
into 97 without any left-overs when
Christmas day is only a few days
ahead. This was the last day of school
for two weeks.
The report, was circulate' at the Da
vis Street school that in futu < then
wouldn't be any last day. Jahnny Duf
fy brought in a rumor that Huperin
t> ndent Slaton, having obsei v. d how
little tvbrl: was done on the last day
tad decided to make that also a holiday
in future. No official verification ot the
Tumor has been given out.
School will not "take in” again until i
January 2. the day after New Year, and I
the vacation this season is one of the I
longest on record. It happen'd that
way because the calendar
that way. Christmas comes next Wed- |
nesday. as everybody more than a year i
old knows. And even the board of <-d - [
u cat ion knew there wouldn’t be the .
slightest use in having school on Mon- ■
day and Tuesday, with the teachers all I
having their minds on presents for the i
sweethearts —and from them and neg- .
looting the pupils who would be study- 1
ing so hard and so anxious to recite. |
So the board and Mr. Slaton decided to
scratch off all the days between today I
and the day after New Year's and let '
everybody have a good time.
