This week Laketon High School
basketball games were scheduled for
t night instead of Friday as usual.
There were very interesting games
yed.
; The very first ge that our boys
“played this season were played at
Weatherly. The boys motored to
Weatherly early in the season and
‘both teams wereb eaten by a large
score. Now we are very desirous of
‘having basketball fans, of which
re are many around Laketon, see
what our boys can do in the line of
defeating. We are sure it will be
“worth seeing, if only to see what a
fine group of sports we have. We al-
so want want to give Weatherly an
unusual warm welcome, because—
well, then perhaps they won't go
away feeling quite so badly.
We are not just boasting for our
arsity, as no school boasting for our
arsity, as no school in the country
S a better second team when it
omes to “good-lookers” and grace-
1 motions. And when, every now
‘and then, they play the varsity, it
‘are beaten, and sometimes they de-
feat the varsity.
A girls’ game is also scheduled for
‘that same night, when the varsity of
‘Laketon will meet the varsity of
Kingston Township High. Our girls
‘are looking forward with pleasure to
his game, as they have never before
played this particular team until this
year.
So, “fans,” if you want to see a
series of good games, and get your
‘money’s worth in the bargain, come
and see our boys and girls play. You
“are assured of plenty of cheering, as
we are all taking special care of our
lungs and throats this week.

Third Grade
(News from Japan—Louise Frantz) |
I will tell you about Japan. Most
of you know Japan is many many
miles away from where you live. We
must cross the Pacific Ocean to go
to Japan. Japan is called the “Land
of Cherry Blossoms” or sometimes
the “Land of the Rising Sun.” Jap-|
an’s most important foods are tea
and rise. They, raise these better
than we can because the land is so
The Japanese wear shoés made of |
wood. Their shoes are called clogs. |
The people of Japan sleep on wooden
pillows at night. They sleep this
way because their hair does not get
mussed as much as if they used
feather pillows. Japanese ladies do
[not fix their own hair. A hair dress-|
|er comes ‘Tu the house to fix their |
hair. i
Fourth Grade - |
(Abe Lincoln by Frank Klug)
Abraham Lincoln was born in the
backwoods in a little log cabin in
1809.
Little Abe went to school for a few |
months and then he had to come out]
to help his father. Abe was fond |
of reading books such as “The Life |
of Washington” and “Pilgrims Prog-|
ress.” He worked very hard at]
splitting rails. When he needed a
new pair of pants he would split five
| hundred rails to earn them. |
Young Lincoln rowed two men out |
(to a steamboat and earned his first |
| dollar when the two men threw two
{ silver coins to him.
He was glad |
to earn this in such a short time. |
One day Abe borrowed a book of a
neighbor. He promised the neighbor
he would work for him to pay for
the book. The neighbors said Abe |
was honest but Abe insisted on do-|
ing the work.
Later he got a job taking a flat|
boat down the Mississippi River to]
New Orleans. That was the first |
young Lincoln was away from home. |

Miss Florence Weintz entertained
the Junior Class at her home on
Monday evening. The evening was
spent in music and pulling taffy. At
a late hour a light lunch was served
to the following: = Misses Jean Ma-
jor, Lillian Casterline, Nell Holcomb,
Louise Brown, Ella Frantz, Ruth
Scovell, Hildreth Garnett, Mary Mec-|
Caleb, Marion Weintz and Florence
Weintz, Messrs. Emerson, Brown,
Mike Skopic, P. H. Aurand and Carl
Brandon.
We are all wondering where Bryce
Major and Lanceford Sutton were.
Do they always retire ats even? Or
is taffy-pulling too violent for them 2
Miss ‘Katherine Stolarick has isa)
ed several days of school on account
of sickness. Her classmates wish
her a very speedy recovery. No won-
der the Junior girls lost at basket
ball last Friday.
Questions ? 2? 7?
We wonder why the Junior Class
are all considerably agitated over the
double seat question? “Teacher” has
refused to interpret it for us. Every-
body wants one—with somebody else. |
We are also wondering why, how, |
when and where the fad of boys wear-
ing aprons originated? Only those
who are henpeckedd o wear ‘such or-
naments.
