Number 1 The Cat
Now boys and girls, open your
nature readers to page 23 and we
will have our first lesson in natu-
ral history.
Our subject for today is the cat.
Cats are car-ni-vor-ou animals,
They are quad-ru-ped mam-mal-
i-a, equipped with nine lives and
sharp claws and their fur is fre-
quent-ly used for mink jackets
and sealskin coats. Cats are fe-
line, which brings us quite na-tur-
al-ly to fe-male. one being closely
asso-ci-at-ed with the other, there
being two sec-Lions,
to-wit: cats
and kittens. A fe-male loves to
be called a kitten. She often gets
away with acting kittenish but
heaven help the one who calls her
a cat! Males sometimes act kit-
tenish also, but when they do.
someone needs to slap their ears
down.
Cat-a-gor-ic al-ly speaking.
cat family; cat-aplasm, cater-waul,

has nothing to do with spasm. If
you cater-waul it means that vou
rllHiV!te
cats make when they think they
are singing. If you are a catalogue
you are a fe-male who knows ev-
erything and passes It on but
if you are a cat-astrophe there is
ab-so-lute-ly nothing you can do
about it except to pick up the
pieces and go home.
Which reminds me that it also
is time for me to go home. That
is all for today, children. Close
your books. Stand. Pass. Wipe
your nose Josephine. Horatlus. if
you don't quit kicking little Will-
iam on the shins there will be a
cat-aclysm right here in this
school room and I dont mean

The GAA basketball season has
been very successful and later a,
tournament will " be organized
among the three trams. This year
more attention has been give.i to
training officials and working out
plays, so that a.l the GAA girls
will be competent in both playing
and refereeing.
Mouryne Burton, Rosemary
Messenger and Florence Neufer
are three new members of the
organization. The first two were
members of junior high GAA and
the latter came from Kelso, Wash.
Basketball also is the main
theme of girls' health classes this
month. Tournaments were organ
ized two weeks ago among the
teams in each class. In first per
iod class, Dorothy Morris's team
won the title with 1.000. Winner
in the second period class was
Jeanne Stillman's team. All three
of the third period class teams are
tied.
All these games were complete
with timekeepers, storekeepers,
umpire and referee, and gave val
uable experience to everyone.
Whether or not there will be finals
has not been decided.

Many have signed up for the
girls' ping pong games and every

with girls waiting to practice. The
tournament promises to be inter
