JIMMY TART
His Cousin
Sure Started
Something
A year ago A. B. John
son, district school princi

listing the grades of a Dunn
High freshman. “Can you
top this?” h* asked. Not
one of the freshman’s marks
dropped below 95. Most of
them verged on 100.
Jimmie Tar:. who earned those
grades, is a sophomore now and 1!
years cud. HU fellow students have
just elected him Student of th«
Month, proving that teachers ant
students are not always in tote
disagreement.
Jimmie hasn't had a B since the
eighth grade. He is sergeant of arm;
erf Allied Youth, a club which ed
ucates against drinking: a membe;
of the Latin Club; and chairmar

is aiming at the moment to get a
bicycle rack installed at the higt
school.
Jimmie's ambition in life is U
be a surgeon. Algebra and biology
are his favorite subjects They hav.
en’t got to the dissection part ye1
in biology. but he ia anticipatini
It keenly (Jimmy once disseotec
some sparrow's eggs with a pocke
knife and his fingers).
He is stunned but pleased at be
ing 'named Student of the Month
He’s inclined, though, to put 4h
whoie thing on his cousin. Lib Lew
is. A while back, Jimmie acted a
campaign manager for Lib whei
she was elected treasurer of th
Student Council. So Lib, on th
you-scratch-my-back, ill - aerate!
yours principle, started a petttioi
for Jimmie.
He needed lots of votes beside
