students are too prone to watte all the.
iftctnoon* In recreation and automo
bile riding and such diversions, and
all the (.‘veilings la attending the pic
ture »how. rather than using the pro
per time in preparation of lenaons.
It was thu waste of time and oppor
tunity that Professor Snipes warned
the student* against, and he declared
ihbt the student- mud »tudy the com
ing session.
“If these h gh school lessoni arc
not prepared,“ * started the Superin
tendent, “you need not expert to get
passing grades."Preparation from day

or neglect overrule. waV urged by
Profrrtor Snipe*. Ha spoke on some
of the forms that would be abided
by, and stated that gathering* In tha
auditorium would be frequent. Flags
would be placed there and all the stu
dents must learn about the American
flag, stated the superintendent in this
connection.
