The Juniors entertained the seniors and faculty members at the annual
junior

Rse and silver, the senior class colors, were used in an old-fashioned
garden
idea.
The toast program with L. B. Smith as toastmaster included: Welcome to
the
Seniors, Ethel Smith; Response by Ula Green; Toads Snakes and
Butterflies
by Loren Brown; The Class Prophesy, Denise Wolford; Toast to the
Faculty, Jean

SENIORS
TO WEAR CAPS AND GOWNS
The seniors of this year will break the precedence set by seniors of
former
years and wear caps and gowns for commencement. The caps and
gowns, to be
rented, will be worn commencement night only, it was decided.
Of the
three sample colors sent to pick from, blue was the almost unanimous
choice of
the class.
*
* * * *
Speaker
for Commencement
Arthur G. Langholz will be the commencement speaker this
year. His topic,
“The Successful Life,” is sure to prove very interesting and
helpful. Mr.
Langholz is the Lutheran pastor at Preston, Iowa. He comes to
us very
highly recommended and we hope that many will be able to hear his
address.

KEEP
OFF THE GRASS
The beauty of a school is increased or decreased by the condition of
the lawn.
During these warm spring days the ground is soft and the yard is in
danger of
being made very rough by the careless walking on the ground by
students.
A beautiful school lawn this summer depends on the care by the students
this
spring.
“B”
AVERAGES
One thing interesting to note about the “B” Average List this six weeks
is that
there are as many boys as girls. Usually the girls take the
lead but this
time the boys are right with them. Maybe next time they will
pass them.
For the fourth six weeks of school there were twelve students on the
list or
one-fourth of the school. This time there are ten or about
one-fifth of
the pupils. Somebody must be getting tired on the
job. We don’t
want to let this good record to go down but to keep on increasing
it. Of course, we realize that
there is a lot of
activity towards the end of the year. What with the Senior
play, Junior
and Senior Banquet, Baccalaureate and graduation, but that is no reason
why we
whould let our grades slump.
Lt’s all work hard this last few remaining weeks and make a better mark
than
ever.

* * * *
HITS
& BITS
Bob Kirk must have come to school one morning before he was
awake. Anyway
when he walked in front of the assembly he fell over a seat that was
out in
plain sight, or maybe he hadn’t gone to bed yet. Which was
it, Bob?
Bennie Mills must have the idea he’s a grown man by now. The
other night
when Mr. Bruce told all the boys to wait a minute, Ben just stands up
and
nonchalantly walks out. However, he found out very soon that
he was still
a boy and could wait with the rest of the bunch.
We thought every one in high school would be able to sit up on a
straight char
now, but guess it’s our mistake as Jean E. seems unable to do
so. At
operetta practice Tuesday afternoon, she just couldn’t manage to sit on
the
hard old chair so Denise obliging held Jean on her lap.
According to Harley Kirk, a dynasty is one of those large prehistoric
animals
you read about. Suppose a dinosaur is some kind of government
they have.
Virgil Vetter seems to be the farming exert of High School with raising
corn
his specialty. When asked the other day what crows did to
hurt corn that
was just starting to grow. Virgil replies, “Why they pick off
the
ears” Must be a special kind of corn to grow ears so early,
isn’t it
Virg?”
Afraid te high school will have to have some curtains before long if
Denise
tries to lower then very much. Last Monday she started to
pull down the
shade and before you knew what happened the whole works came down, the
rod,
cord and everything.
Harley was as absent minded as usual Wednesday that he took his English
Lit
book to Physics class. Or it might be he’s so interested in
English that
he was just going to put extra time on it.
A world series baseball game in miniature was played here Tuesday night
during
the hard rain storm. Atalissa came down to play a baseball
game so rather
than postpone it, they played an indoor kittenball game. The
Atalissa
boys had little trouble in sliding the bases as they played in their
stocking
feet. All enjoyed the game as much or more than if the regular game had
of been
played.

some in a
glass of water and some in a glass under damp cotton. Third
graders are
watching seed corn sprout in a glass of water and some of us planted
grapefruit
seeds.

We are working very hard on our combinations and find there are many
interesting ways to drill on them.
The coconut which Joyce brought to use from Florida is ripening raidly
and we
are anxious to see what is inside.
Second
Grade
We are finding the study about transportation very interesting,
specializing on
the train. The traveling library has supplied us with two
books which are
very helpful.
Third

We have completed our Child Library readers and will begin work on our
Bolenius
readers soon.
In Arithmetic we have made charts and are watching our work in the
self-testing

Foreign
Correspondence
Louis Milder received a letter last week from his foreign friend that
lives in
Hammerfast, Norway.
It was read before the English Literature class and proved to be very
interesting.
Some of the odd characteristics of the letter were he told of his
schooling. Ten years of school seven of which are grade
school and three
are grammar school or high school.
He told us that nearly all the sports we played here were over there
but
baseball and basketball. Skiing an ice skating are the most
important
sports over there.
He was a very good letter writer and he had an excellent usage of the
verb
shall and will.

FEATURES
Tiny
Tots Must Play
Well, Senior Play practice has started. Of course, eating
candy, etc. and
swinging when they should be inside is all a part of the seniors’
amusements. Instead of dignified seniors they act more like
freshman. Talk about silly things, they always do the
impossible.
Even down to giggling and just playing. I wonder if they will
ever grow
up. We all know our school days here at N. H. S. will soon be
over.

* * * *
Yum
– Yum – Toast
What a dreadful time they had with their toasts and not the simple
bread and
butter toasts either, but the after dinner speeches at the banquet.
For weeks and weeks of so it seemed the Juniors and Seniors were trying
to find
material and something to talk about. They had their topics,
but they
didn’t seem to help much. They certainly had a terrible time
and took
suggestions from everyone. One innocent senior girl said,
“Oh, just take
a piece of toast along.” She knew better and they really
weren’t so easy
to prepare as that.
At any rate the program was well done and relished by all in spite of
their
troubles.
*
* * * *
Class
Day
After much arguing and discussion the seniors have finally decided on
their
class day trip. At least some of the their plans have been
arranged.
Des Moines is the place they have selected in preference to
the Maquoketa
caves and such places around Dubuque.
Visiting the capitol will probably be the chief interest of the
class.
They are such history minded students you know. Well anyway,
lets hope
they remember something about it, at least where it’s at.
