Soph English Class
Rewrites Fairy Tale
Of course everyone has heard
the story of Little Red Riding
Hood. Mrs. Simon's English
classes had, too, but they were
not content with the old "once
upon a time" version, and so
they rewrote the story to suit
their own tastes in numerous
different styles. Little Red Rid
ing Hood (King James Version)
by Diana George.
An it came to pass that in
the days when mothers made
goodies for grandmothers who
were stricken in years, there
came forth a young maiden by
the name of Red Riding Hood.
2. And in the twentieth and
third year, Little Red Riding
Hood's mother did command
her to go forth into the forest
and deliver some goodies to her
grandmother, which her moth
er had prepared.
3. And behold, as she did
travel into the deep forest, the
extremely foul odor of goodies
did attract the creeping thing
and the fowl of the air.
And they did flocketh unto
her.
4. But alas, little did she
know that among the creeping
things, there was a wretched
wolf.
5. And the wolf did approach
unto her and saith: "Where go
est thou, fair damsel?"
6. and she answereth thus:
"Wolf, thou talkest too much;
thou knoweth the script."
7. And so the wolf departed
therefrom, and hastened to
grandmother's home where
Long Five Minutes
I think I should write a let
ter to the school board and
find out why the clock always
slows down the last five min
utes before 3:30. Something
really ought to be done about
it.
Everyone is making so much
noise grabbing up their books
and rattling papers that I
can't hear the assignment. I
probably wouldn't have done it
anyway.
Really, why docs the time
drag so? Four minutes till 3:30.
Maybe I could sneak out. No.
The last time I tried that I had
to stay till 4:00. This is really
terrible. I think I'll pay a re
pairman myself to fix that
clock.
Just three more minutes now
and it'll be all over for anoth
er day. Maybe if I don't think
about it, time would go faster.
Oh, it's just no use. That
clock ticks so loud and so slow
ly I can hear it with my ears
plugged up, but now there are
only two minutes left.
I have so much to do, when
I get home. Why can't the time
go faster? Finally, at last, only
li minute to go. Now 20 sec
onds, 15 seconds, 10 seconds,
5 seconds, r-r-ring. Freedom at
last!
SAY YOU SAW IT IN
THE ROGUE NEWS
there, he did cat grandmother
and then he hideth the sack.
8. Soon Little Red Riding
Hood comcth to grandmother's
house and knocketh on the
door. A deep voice therein did
say, "Who doth knock on my
door?" And Little Red Riding
Hood did answer saying, "Tis
me, grandmother, one of thy
descendents. I bringeth thee
goodies." And the voice there
in did eagerly say, "Enter thou,
and welcome." (Slurpeth, slurp-eth)
And it came to pass that
when Little Red Riding Hood
did seest her grandmother, she
did not think that she was ex
ceedingly handsome, for she
had grown a mustache. Yea, she
was exceedingly handsome.
10. But behold, when the
wolf did grin at her with a
hungry look upon his face, she
knoweth then who it was and
she was sore afraid.
11. And behold, when the
wolf did try to get her goodies,
she did strike him and it did
smart.
12. But alas, this did not stop
the wretched wolf, for he did
then try to grab her and she
did shriek, as loud as thunder.
13. And hark! A woodsman
in a far-off forest did hear the
fair damsel in distress and he
earnest hence, and killed the
wolf.
14. Then the woodsman and
Little Red Riding Hood did
dissect the wolf and scotch tape
the grandmother back together
again, and they did get a "one"
in biology.
Yea, the end thereof.
SPRING PLAY
CAST CHOSEN
Rehearsals for "The Little
Shepherd of Kingdom Come,"
the Anniversary Play, began
last week, according to Mrs.
Lucy Susee, director.
She added that the students
participating in the play will
become more excited and work
harder as the date of presenta
tion nears.
Mrs. Susee stated that the
backstage crew will get the
props ready for the play.
Students participating in the
play expressed their views:
"After a few weeks of this I
will feel like a real Kentuckian.
Old Tom feels that he 1 sget
ting blacker every day. If you
've never seen an exciting play
before, and you're looking for
a clean, pure, exciting one, this
will about top all we've ever
put on."
Coming fro the hills of King
dom Come, I have very little to
say, but even if I could say any
thing, my English would be so
atrocious the audience would
not have sufficient mental ca
pacity to quickly translate my
grammar into proper English.
Other than that, I humbly beg
all to see the play."
"I'se a lazy, sweet, an' shif-
less li'l darky. So come an' see
me tin the play."
"I think it is going to be a
smash!"
SOPHOMORES COMPLETE PROJECTS
As the end of the six weeks
again came around, sophomores
in Miss Christopher's English
classes decorated the room by
displaying their projects.
The majority of the projects
were concerned with the novel
"Silas Marner," which all soph
omores read. Karen Wood and
Aleta Marion drew pictures of
different scenes from the novel.
Sharon O'Keefe cut pictures
from magazines that illustrated
the characters in "Silas Marn
er." Rich Pierce, Paula Prescott,
Frances Pentland, drew graphs
of the plot of "Silas Marner."
Jim Freeman made a pictorial
map of Raveloe, the village
where the novel takes place.
Mike Cotton and Craig Pen
nington, with the help of Clau
dia Everett on art, made a small
stage with a scene from the
novel. They also taped a twenty-five
minute production of
the conversation from the
scene. The scene took place at
the Rainbow Inn.
Terry McKinnis and Tracy
Fontaine each dramatized
chapter from "Silas Marner.
Diane Fieguth made a chart
comparing "Silas Marner" with
"Romola."
The scene where Silas finds
the baby by his fire place was
put into a shadow box by Jane
Hennick. A plaster map of
Raveloe was made by Elaine
Neads. It has small paper
nouses and twigs for trees.
Not on the subject of "Silas
Marner" is the bulletin board
to the right of the door. This is
on the subject of Shakespeare
and includes many pictures and
pamphlets. The board was ar
ranged toy Paula Prescott.
