SENIOR NOTES
Fred Harris, one of our prominent classmates, grad
uated last week upon completing his barbering course.
We extend our sincere hopes for his successful appli
ance of the trade.
Sam Shoulderblade, that stalwart Indian athlete, is
our latest addition to our class. He hailed from his
“happy hunting grounds” just a few days ago.
We are proud to note that several seniors have ap
plied to enter colleges next fall.
Individual pictures are being taken for the annual
and a number of seniors have already had theirs taken.
Why not the rest of you? Gertie Adams and Sam
Scott are in charge and will gladly help you if you
turn in your measly 25 cents.
THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT?
What is the Christmas spirit?
It is the spirit which brings a smile to the lips and
tenderness to the heart; it is the spirit which warms
one into friendship with all the world, which serves
one to hold out the hand of fellowship to every man
and woman, to every boy and girl.
For the Christmas motto is “Peace on earth, good
will to men, ’ ’ and the spirit of Christmas demands that
it ring our hearts and find expression in kindly acts
and loving words.
A man there was and he had a friend
(Even as you and I),
And he tried to think of a wish to send,
Original “stuph” with a subtle trend,
The kind that a highbrow might have penned
(Even as you and I).
But the man was stripped of his foolish pride
(Even as you and I).
For he saw at last that the wish was tried,
Not by the words but the thought inside,
So “Merry Christmas’’ he wrote and sighed
(Even as you and I).
