The High School Bulletin Editor-in-Chief, Maude Pratt. On Tuesday moraine, January 2nd, the ohool ohlllren again wended their way to the Hall of Learning after a happy and profitable vacation of two weeks and a day. In the meantime the janitor and assistants had donned the roomi up grnerally, so that everything wag gplo and span for the tchool work Of 1906. Last Friday evening, as the third number of the lecture course, Dr. A. A. Wllllts gave his lecture on "Sunshine." As Prof. Scott said In Introducing the lecturer, although over 84 years of age, Dr. Wllllts Is certainly the prince of lecturers. His Btrong personality, plead ing voice and refreshing humor kept his audience spellbound. ' Ills lieture vividly Bhowed : That sunny temper aments make beautiful faces ; the un hangable crime of those who "murder" human happiness by their 111 temper ; unselfishness as the best source of hap piness ; the fallacy of uBlng religion as a "Ore escape"; and that the best gift we can give our follow-men Is a sunny disposition. Perhaps his lecture could best be sum tried up In the rhyme he gave for every onn to remember : "That mull l blest Who doe his la'st And leaven the rest Don't worry. Certainly no one could heiir his simple philosophy for a happy life, without wishing to adopt It. Prof. Scott gives us two weeks of grace in which to preparo for exams. No basket ball games, no nothing but good hard work till exams arn over. Wednesday morning the hills leading to the school house were one glare of loo and many a school child, and school marm too, took a grand old tumble. The ashes and salt sprinkled on the walks were appreciated by all who un dertook to climb them. This week tho Seniors hand in their biennial attempts at oratory. Surely they will astonish the world by their solution of Its most complex subjects. The days of woudorB are not ended, as some of our Illustrious Juniors, come to class day after day with no lessons prepared and then make from HO to 95 per cent In examination. Thoro muBt be a Bcrew loose somewhere. Another humorous crime : "The Mystery of the Weedville Hotel : or Who Stole that Freshie's Trousers ?" It seems to be the motto of one in class '08 to "Laugh and grow fat" only she doesn't grow fat. Judging from the new things worn, Santa Clans must have been pretty good to the Sophomores. Adda Myers, one of tho class of '05, - visited rooms 14 and 15 Tuosday of last week. Hereafter whon excused from the room, please don't stay all day.
