NOVKMIII.U 91. I a I. CROOK COCNTT JOVRNAL HIGH SCHOOL NEWS NOTES Knthrrlne Drury Hon. In The IJxt Mr. Evans hat Junt compiled the scholarship of the entire student body ot the high school for the first six weeks' period ending October 1. He has also determined the scholarship by classes, and the average scholar ship of the school for this period. The Seniors lead all classes in the group scholarship, making a percen tage of 88.7. The Juniors follow with 86.6 per cent, the Sophomores with 86.9 per cent, Freshmen with 84.1 per cent. This seems consistent with things, that the Sophomores should excell the Freshmen and so on through the four classes, but when we come to the ten highest ranking students In school we do not find this consistency obtaining, for here we find that 4 Sophomores have place In this list, Katherine Drury leading not only her class but the entire school with a percentage ot 96.6. The Freshmen have S In this list, the Seniors S. and the Juniors but one. Following are the ten students who have highest averages and rank ot each: Katherine Drury, 96.6; Essie Reams. 94.76; Madge Rowell, 94.6; Clarence Mertsching, 94 1-8; Olive Bhaun. 94; Esther Adamson, 93.76; Cecil Bowlin. 9S.75; Lila Maddox. S.76; Virginia Pancake, 93; Blanche Rowell. 93. Average scholarship for the school, 86.3 per cent. We venture to say there will be a change In this line-up next time. Watch for the report. w. a. 1.

He started up a business on a dollar eighty cents. The dollar for stock and the eighty for an ad brought him three lovely dollars In a day, by dad. Well, he bought more goods and a little more. space, and he played that system with a smile on his face. The cds- tomers flocked to his two-by- four, and soon he had to hustle for a regular store. Up on the square where the people pass, he gobbled up a corner that was all plate glass. He fixed up the window with the best he had and told them all about It In a full page ad. He soon had 'em com- lug, and he never never quit, and and he didn't cut down his ads one darn whit. And he kept things humming in the town ever since, and everybody calls him the merchant prince. Some say it's luck, but that's all bunk, why, he was doing business when thn tlmea were nunk. People have to purchase and the geeser was wise for he knew the way to get 'em waa to advertise. Ex.
