Benscoter Attends John Deere School C. J. Benscoter representing Rural Supply Co. has recently re- turned from Syracuse where he attended a week-long intensive’ ser- vice school on the complete new line of John Deere Tractors. More than 100 men attended this first in a series of service schools on the “New Generation of Power.” These men studied and worked on the new variable speed engines, transmissions, final drives, electrical and hydraulic systems. Classes were divided into small groups so each mechanic could be- come fully familiar with the service procedures of these ‘‘new-from-the- ground-up-tractors. Service certificates and group pictures were given t¢ each man attending the banquet Thursday evening. Bongo Instruction L. P.

So with note- books, textbooks, and pen in hand, Misericordians resumed classes on January 5. Some, quite naturally, were not too pleased to give up vacation life, especially when they opened dusty books and found that they had for- gotten so much and needed a thorough review. But the calendar said: “Semester exams begin Jan- uary 23.” Vacation memories were quickly laid aside and slightly rusty minds began to grind into motion one more. January's calendar also shows numerous events that are relief to crammed brains . . . Misericordians now more than ever have no excuse for any lapse in etiquette. Miss Ann Culkin, lec- turer and editor of ‘The Catholic Light,” conducted a two-day charm course on January 5th: and 6th. First reaction of most students at the thought of a charm course was UGH! But after Miss Culkin’s in- formative and amusing course we agree that it was a great experience. She amused everyone with her exhi- bitions of poor table manners, pos- ture, etc., and we were surprised to discover that we fitted into some categories. Guess we weren't as perfect as we thought! Senior students then had an op- portunity ‘to put their charm into use at a dinner dance at King’s Inn in Kingston on January 7. Junior rings were blessed by the Reverend Michael Rafferty on Jan- uary 5. The class of 1962 will cele- brate the reception of the long awaited bands at a dance January 14 at the American Legion in Wilkes-Barre. The varsity basketball season will be inaugurated the same day, Jan- uary 14. The team will play their first game at Cheyney State College. Co-captains of this year’s squad are seniors Emma Engler of Trucksville and Esther Burke of Elizabeth, N. J. So the time has come, the calendar says, when ‘each day means study and when each spare moment is filled with spiritual activity. WESTMORELAND High School News The Samuels Twins, Karen and Sharon STUDENT COUNCIL tudent Council has donated new Bibles to every homeroom at West- moreland, and everyone thinks this a fine gesture on their part. The Council has also had new television sets installed in the laboratory and in Room 1, so that students and teachers will be able to watch the inauguration ceremonies, televised educational programs, etc. while attending classes. : NEW FINERY We notice many new outfits in school these days, and also some new jewelry and pocketbooks. We can guess that many a “Doll” received a nice gift from her boy friend for Christmas. And from what we've heard, many a beau received nice gifts from his girl, also.
