(Addie)“ Oka, do you find Benjamin Franklin in
teresting?”
(Oka) “ No, it gets pretty dry, and sometimes I al
most choke.”
W e’re having circles in our “ plain” geometry now,
and find it not so bad as we thought. In botany we
are taking up “ stems” and we find that they are
necessary to the plant in many ways.
The Senior class, with Mr. and Mrs. Hall, Mrs.
Brickell and Virginia, enjoyed a jolly evening given
by our teacher, Mrs. Risser. We had a ’very dainty
and attractive lunch which was served in the Do
mestic Science after our play last Friday evening.
One event we shall never forget as a class.
Not only those whose names appeared as actors were
responsible for the production of “ Her Husband’s
Wife.” The entire class of ’23 was busy. Oka Paul
ina, Minnie Patawa and William Minthorne were on
the advertising committee; Frank Johnson, curtain
man; Anna EaRance, prompter; Alex Beauvais, Stella
Ridley and Carney French were on the committee for
stage properties; Cecelia Smith was business manager
and was assisted by Robert Johnson who also looked
after the tickets and programs; John Pesterkoff, our
musician, rendered the wonderful music. The coach
reports that every man was reliably on the job every
minute.

Chemawa Boy Scouts Vs. Salem Boy Scouts
A visit to the laboratory during any school day is
always a deep satisfaction to those who enjoy seeing
pupils industriously and intelligently working.
The pupils of the primary department are to have
the pleasure of making the decorations for the hospital
Christmas trees. The little folks hailed the opportun
ity with real delight as it gives them a chance to do
useful work in sharing Christmas with others less for
tunate. The period assigned for construction and
seat work will be used for this purpose.
When a boy walks six miles to school these frosty
mornings, and cheerfully remarks that “ I t ’s all right”
and that he “ needs the exercise,” we conclude that
he needs the education, that he knows he needs it,
and is determined to have it. When all Chemawa boys
get this spirit the teachers will have the Christmas
gift that Miss Gunn urged the students to present to
them.
On Thursday four members of the 9th grade, B di
vision lined up in battle array over the dead body of
Julius Csesar. Anna Dee Thomas and Roderick Hill
contested in reciting the speech of Brutus; Rose Seeds
and Ernest Hill contended for highest rating in reciting
the Antony speech. Each contestant did well. And
the judges felt inclined to award a decision in favor of
each one, but a final checking of ballots gave the
decision to the Hill brothers.

SEN IO R NOTES
We see we have some good actors as well as good
orators in the class, as was proved by the play that
was given.
We are glad that our play is over with so that we
can get down to real business. We regret that it is
gone forever though.
A senior boy tried to commit suicide the other day
by falling into the swamp, but quickly decided he
wanted to stay with his class.
We plan on breaking all diplomatic relations with
the hospital soon, and recalling our number of am
bassadors who have in turn represented us there for
some time.
