GOOD CLOTHES for HIGH SCHOOL BOYS Right in Style Low in Price Long or Short Pants For the one short day of Monday, Dc- eemlier the 7th, the dignified Seniors were kids again on the annual Kid Day of the High School. Little boys and girls with suckers and dolls tlironged the halls and class rooms from cight-tliirty until the end of scliool. Everywhere they were the center of at traction. 'fhe freshmen jiointcd them out admiringly, the teachers laughed, and Ihe other students envied. This last was occasioned by tlie unusual jirivileges that tlie kids enjoyed on their lucky day. 'riiey ate suckers almost continuously, were late to all tlieir classes, and tor mented the very lives out of the teach ers. Even Miss Blackmon fiinally be came disgusted. Dorotliy Lea and Marvin Iseley were the leaders of all tills commotion. They could not but create an admiring circle around them because the extreme origi nality of tlieir costumes always drew i. crowd. Dorothy carried tlie students hack to the days of the little log school house in the clearing; as for Marvin, everybody hojicd tliat lie had never looked as ludicrous as he did. Mary Lyon in her little brown sailor hat was al.so much admired. Others who were very originally dres.sed were: Paul Seur- loek, Irene Hester, Margaret C'rews, and Helen Felder. All of the costumes were good, hut these were generally consid ered to he the best from the standjioint of appropriateness and originality. 'I'liis Kid Day was one of the most successful that lias ever been staged in the High Scliool. Perhajis one reason for tliis was that the Seniors succeeded in coinjiletely surprising the other class es. Some of the freshmen, before they eauglit on to the big idea, even tliought that tin* Seniors were again trying to hurlesijue tlietn. However, they soon realized tlieir mistake and joined in the fun. It was one more glorious day of childhood not only for the Seniors hut for the whole school. IN THESE PLACES YE SHALL FIND THEM Green.sberry Hie Skule is the plase wliur a lotta boys and gurls colleck to- getlier, to lurn a lotta fulisliness. Most of this fulisliness is dun in the elass-rumes, but I will not diskuss that faze of it for feer of provokin my deer teachers' rath aginst me. To tell awl I no about sum of my classes wood be to rite a comic liistory of tlie coming gen- erashun, so “mum’s the wurd.” 'Hie jiertickler faze which I wish to jiut before the wurld is sjiorts. Sjiorts is a meens of making life time enemies of hoys and gurls so as to stimulate com petition in bizness after our papas have joined our ancestors in the happy clirnbin grounds. In futball, 2 teems get on a feel an kick a ball at each other. Tlie one what gets it is the one what kwits playin first because all 13 of the otlier teem jump on him, an the umiiire too. 'Hie teem what nocks out the most men beets. Fut- hall is a kowards game thoe, because whoever gets the ball is usually skaired lie will get liert an he runs. But the moral is never run with a futball be cause the otlier teem will kech you any how an jHit you out of the game. Basketball is a game whur 10 men are put in a kage an fite over a ball. It is a ruff game, hut a lion tamer heljis to keap order; when the boys get rowdy, he blocs a whisle an they (]uit fitin over the hall, the tamer jHills them ajiart an takes it away from them. 'Hien tliey stand about 2 feet apart and when he blows his whisle, tliey jump in an slap eaeli other on the fase. In the mean time 2 more players fite over the ball. Baseball aint so bad. 'Hie piclier tries to hit tlie batsman, but hardly ever doe, so all is well. It's rite fulisli, tlioe; a man will hit a ball an run around in a circle an then come rite hack whur he started. Aint that crazy? I would like to play feelder because you get to .slcej) during most of the game. 'Hie side whicli tlie referee has got the most money bet on wins. 'Track is a vulgur game. All the boys run all over town in the A. B. C.’s an get out on the track an run they fool lieads off till they get red in tlie face an come rite back to the plase they started from.

'Hie next big feature was the apjiear- ance of a newsboy shouting “Extra!” “Extra!” His news sheet created a great deal of excitement for it proved to be a scandal edition entitled “Spy Lights”, which contained dark secrets concerning the Seniors and the members of the faculty present. At intervals during the evening clever toasts, all carrying out the Christmas spirit, were given. Especially clever was the toast to Mr. Archer, Miss Mitchell, and Mr. Phillips which was made by Elizabeth Umberger and was called, “'Po Santa and His Two Reindeers”.
