The Lake Township High School
students are making good progress in
their English classes. Subjects tak-
en up are not only about adjectives,
adverbs, nouns, pronouns and other
English subjects which are demanded
according to the school code, but also
writing of poem, nomination speeches,
letters of condolence, invitations and
the like which will be of priceless
value to them later in life.
This Thursday our assignment was
to write a toast, and all the class said
that it couldn’t be done, but when
called upon, we were prepared. There
were toasts for every occasion.
We have decided to publish at least
a few of them, so that others might
become acquainted with what we are
doing. Here are some toasts written
by members of the Junior and Senior
classes:
‘Toast for the annual banquet of
the Latin Club, by Josephine Grey;
Senior: “In frita dum flueri curreat
dum montihus umbrea bustrahunt
palus dum sidera pascet osempir
lonas nomequer turim laudesque man-
ibunt, quae me cumque vocant ter-
rac.”
(Virgil)
Translation—As long as the rivers
flow into the sea, as long as the
shadows flit over the mountains, as
long as heaven feeds the stars, for-
ever will your honor and your name
and your praises remain, whatever
lands may call me.
Toast to “Lucky Lindy” and his
bride-to-be:
Here’s to “Lucky Lindy,”
The pride of all our land;
‘Who flew across to Paris, \
And won honors big and grand.
Shy of girls and bashful,
A bachelor man that he’d be;
But he stole a march on all of us,
This lucky author of “We.”
Miss Marrow is to be his bride,
Some sunny day in June;
“Another chance gone,” say all the
girls,
He’s set the date too soon.
Raise your clear, cool crystal,
To our bride and groom-to-be,
Don’t forget we’ve chances yet,
We're very young, you see.
(Lena Koeber, Junior)
Toast given at Annual Flappers’
Banquet: }
Here’s to the wonderful one-horse
shay, *
That our grandparents
their happy day;
| Here’s to their customs and sly de-
meanor,
Their robust maidens (today they're
leaner)
Here's to the grand old fashioned
beam,
Tho’ these things are allright we’ll
have you know,
| That we prefer
shays,
And rather relish the modern ways.
(Lois Sorber, senior.)

active support of A. P. Cope, county

School activities of the respective schools;
to inform the public of this section
about matters pertaining to the school

develop the literary talents of the stud-

To the reference books of the li-
brary a set of encyclopedias have
been added.
The valentine boxes were very much
enjoyed at the school. After the
Seventh Grade had distributed their
valentines the ‘box was filled with
fruits and sent to one of the missing
pupils.
Miss Caroline Klug, who has been
seriously ill in the Homeopathic Hos-
pital, is now back to school.
Miss Edna Harvey, after an ap-
pendicitis operation is at her home on
Parrish Heights. :
Mr. Bowman received many valen-
tines. One seemed to interest him
very much. It consisted of many
little hearts in one large heart. Mr.
Bowman is interested in taylor-ing.
Oliver Mason is not only growing
up physically but also in manners.
He picks up Kathryn Penxa’s pencil
every time she drops it now. Kath-
ryn likes to drop her books and pen-
cils so the boys will pick them up
for her. Here’s hoping Kathryn
makes the boys stoop for her always.
The class in science is studying
electricity this week. Richard Temp-
lin is our best pupil in this subject.
He not only comes up to the stand-
ard work but also does extra work.
He has just completed an electric
bell. His bell was done all by him-
self and the class is sure of one good
electrcian.
Glenn More sat by Ruth Crawford
in Latin Class the other day. The
results are, Glenn is suffering from
a black eye. Ruth would much rath-
er have her Shavertown sheik sit by
her.

because our star player, Thomas
Traver, was back on the job after a
long siege of illness. Wetherly was
to fast for us, however, and we were
close in the score until the last quar-
ter, when they gained on us and the
final scare was 12-19 in Wetherly’s
favor.
We must add that Wetherly showed
marked sportsmanship throughout the
game. Always giving us the benefit
of the doubt.
Referees were Rood and Kuchta.
Walter Hoover, a resident of Rug-
gles and a well wisher of our basket
ball teams has donated a modern
make score board.
We all wish to thank him publicly.

Special chapel services were held ||
on Friday morning in honor of Geo.
Washington and in celebrating his
birthday. A guest speaker added
much to the occasion as well as did
the special music by a selected quar-
tette. The entire group sang sev-
eral numbers appropriate to the oc-
casion.
The glad emotions on the part of
the pupils greeted Tuesday’s snowfall.
Joy was foremost, because most of
the pupils are outdoor folks who take
much pleasure in the various winter
sports.
About twenty- ive Lehman pupils,
under the care and protection of two |
teachers, enjoyed a bus ride to
Kunkle last Friday where they were
the guests of the Dallas Township
basket ball teams. The ride will be
remembered by many for a long time,
by some longer than others.
Again there has been considerable
absence due to sickness. The Junior
Class was especially hard hit, and
the absentees were mostly boys.
The entire school joins in express-
ing sympathy to Mary and Katherine
Stolarick, whose father’s death took
place last Saturday. We also wish
the speedy recovery of other folks
who are seriously ill among the fam-
ilies of our pupils.
The Juniors are preparing to pre-
sent a drama, “Headstrong Joan.”
They were much pleased with their
recent program of magic and appre-
ciate the support it received. Now
for a successful play.

Seniors
The Seniors welcomed two visitors
last Wednesday: Irma Johnson, a for-
mer member of the class and Rebecca
