Miss Tobey has been so busy with
the Junior and Senior plays that Miss
Gill has had charge of looking over
the material for both the Freshman

Roseburg high has been conducting
a campaign to beautify the high school'
grounds. Shrubs have been planted
and a great improvement has beeji
made. Various organizations and clubs
of the town have donated money and
the different classes and faculty havie
raised funds.
This is a good idea for us to adopt.
Since our back yard has been cleaned
up, suppose we add some more im­
provement to the front. Plant some
shrubbery and clean up the space
around our new gym.
Resourceful Girl Who
“Parked" Her Sleeves
I am not going to reveal her identity
more than to say that her name is
Margaret, and she lives in Hamburg,
I a; < i will say that on a certain occa­
sion this young woman showed herself
possessed of resourcefulness.
When she dressed for that reception,
or whatever it was, she did not know
that it was going to be a formal affair,
so she put on a dress or a gown or a
frock or—gee, being a man is some­
thing awful when it comes to writing
about women’s clothes. Guess I better
call it a dress. She put on a dress
;,with long sleeves.
When she got to the place where the
reception or whatever it was, was go­
ing on, she discovered that every other
woman there had on a sleeveless gown.
I guess gown is right. But did she let
that spoil the occasion for her? Not
this young woman. Not by a long shot.
She slipped upstairs,' slipped into a
room, slipped off her dress, ripped out
:' i s sleeves,, slipped the “gown” on
again and slipped downstairs in less
time than it takes to tell it.
Approaching her hostess she said:
“Tell me, please, where I can park
these sleeves.”—Buffalo News.
Advantage
of shopping here is that you
need concern yourself with but
two things — the suitability of
the goods to your purpose, and
the price. The qualify you may
