HT HAPPENINGS each should make a contribution of fifty cents toward wiping out a cer tain debt. Most of them have paid and the burden of debt is consider ably lighter. As Mr. Cowles says, Alex. Springs “is still in a receptive mood.” THE FRES.MAN’S PRAYER The Editorial Staff wishes to an nounce that an article which ivas pub lished in the last issue of LEXHIPEP, and claimed by a student of the high school, was the property of a New York paper. We are sorry this occurred and are certain it will not happen again. TIME TO LAUGH Charles: “I don’t think I should get unsatisfactory on conduct.” Miss Cassell: “Well, I don’t either, but that’s the only thing I can give you.” Misses Doris Humphreys and Aileen Kirkman, almost ex-officio manager and captain of the girls’ basketball team of 1922, announce that they have about twenty-five dollars on hand. This seems to be a great improve ment over previous clubs and teams sent out by the Lexington High School and the young ladies are to be con gratulated. We are sorry to announce that the boys have not yet been heard from. (History teacher: “So they killed all the aristocrats except Julius Caesar, then a boy of seventeen, who escaped into the mountains.” Student (struggling through “Cae sar’s Gallic Wars”): “I wish they’d killed him, too.” Listener (during debate): “Which side are you on?” Martha Burkhead (wearily): “I wish I were on the outside.’ The boys of the high school, under the leadership of Foil Brinkley and Major Grissom, are preparing a very high class and up-to-date minstrel. It is said by the advertising commit tee and management that this is going to be the best minstrel ever held in Lexington. It is for the benefit of high school athletics and the admision will be announced later. Teacher (giving test): “Herbert, are you getting help?” Pupil: “No ma’am, just looking to see if I have the right answer.” Miss Walker asked the question, “What happens when there is an eclipse of the moon?” Weldon Shoaf: “A great many peo ple come out to look at it.” The girls’ basketball team, having lost but one game played in this state, and won 11 consecutive games, have entered the championship race with that pep and action that spells suc cess. The coach. Miss Mary Noble Hill, accompanied by the captain, Aileen Kirkman, went to Greensboro Saturday, March 4th, where they ar ranged to play “Walkertown. Teacher: “Thomas, what do you come to school for?” Thomas: “I don’t know, ma’am.” Teacher: “Then go to Mr. Grissom and find out.” Thomas: “I—I—I know now.” Boy to his dad: “Dad, can you sign your name with your eyes shut?” His dad: “Certainly.” Boy: “Well, then, shut your eyes and sign my report card.”—Literary Digest. Louise Ti'itt, ’25 Now I lay me down to rest. Before I take my Latin test; If by chance I fail to wake, Thank Heaven, I’ll have no test to take. If the ship leaked would Edmund Sink? If Edgar Beck is old is Floyd Young? If Robert is tall is Sue Lohr (low er) ? If Curry would act “Cute” would Gloria “B” Jolly? If Robert Curry is black is W’allace White? If it would rain all day would “Wat ers” be high? When the new mill was built was Bufort “A” Miller? A COMPLAINT. Rebecca Walscr, ’2.5 We, the class of ’2 5, Plope and pray we’ll be alive. To see our great-grandchildren wan der To the new “High” building yonder. Where we longed to go. Way back there in ’21 When the wmrk was just begun, They said, “We will make it snappy, And we hope you willl be happy. Just watch this ‘high school’ grow.” And in dear old ’25 We’ll be most grown, my sakes alive! Will the school be standing yet? Will the people still forget? Come on, town, let’s go. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF Mr. Grissom failed to have at least ten commandments when called on in chapel? The new school building were finish ed in time for our great-great-grand children to graduate in? There were not at least ten pupils around the pencil sharpener at one time ? Druzilla Evans were not on the hon or roll? Mr. LeFevre forgot to say, “Re- ""’mber you’re in First Year High School?” At a meeting of the boys of the high school recently, it was decided that Freshman disappears—she went in to the room and the radiator. Professor Cowles fired—with indig nation over the high cost of building material.
