, The school observed Washington's
Birthday by holding a “straight ses-
sion.” We had a very interesting
program in chapel which consisted of
readings, a selection from the high
school quartet, and ‘selections by the
girls chorus. This was very capably
conducted by Miss .Park, one of our
high school teachers.
We were also very pleased to have
the opportunity to listen to a short
address by Rev. James Burleigh, of
Lehman.
The Lehman boys ‘clashed with the
retreated victorious by a very small
margin, the score being 22-23.
The Senior Class published on Wed-
nesday the first issue of “The Last
Minute,” a weekly school paper. It
consists of news of the social and
athletic activities of our school, facul-

practice in journalism we hope the]
paper may become a creditable rep- |

Basket Ball
| In recent basket ball games Coach
Carey has frequently made us of the
humble Scrubs and with good results.
Twice they have pulled seemingly
hopeless games from the fire. The
youngsters seem to show a do or die
[pe which is so necessary to a win-
ning team. The varsity has not been |
able to get going in recent games |
with anything like the form they
showed in the early season. We hope |
\they have ended their mid-season
| scores. They have been much ham-|
pered by sickness among their num-!
{ber and may revive to better form |
with the return of all the invalids.
EXTRA SPECIAL—The Juniors |
have nothing to say this week to the |
reporters.
| Last Friday afternoon an interest- |
ing game took place in our gymna-
, sium when our Seventh and Eighth
Grade girls met and defeated the sev- |
enth and eighth grade girls from |
Laketon. The score at the end of
the first half was 10-4 in favor of
Laketon. A little encouragement
land our team gained fifteen points,
| the final score being 1910.
The girls expect to have a return |
| game in the near future played on
the Laketon floor. A feature of the
game was the fine spirit manifested |
by both teams. /
| Britain’s Famous Port
The name “Liverpool” is supposed
to be derived from a Norse word
meaning “Che Pool of the Slopes.”
Liverpool began its career as a ship-
ping port in the Twelfth century when
Chester harbor became too silted up
for heavy-laden vessels, and the ships
were compelled to seek harborage in
an inlet in tk» Mersey estuary.

Caesar In Revised Form
| The following selection is taken
| from the first chapter of Caesar, but
|is revised, and for this fact we would |
| offer profuse apologies to him—if he |
were living! (Poor Caesar!)
All Laketon is divided into four
parts and they who inhabit the as-
| sembly. hall are called Freshmen,
Sophomores and Juniors, while those
who inhabit the class room, in our
language are called Seniors. All the
languages, studies and laws differ.
The Seniors are separated from the
other classes by the wide hallway and
two partitions.
The bravest of all these are the
Seniors, because they are farthest
away from the others. = Nearby are
the Juniors, with whom we often
wage ware. Because lof this we must
surpass them in bravery, for we also
wage war in their territories and
often overcome them.
