H. S. SCIENCE CUSS
BUYS LIBERTY BOND
The first year Ueneral Brleuce
class was the first class In the On
tarlo High School to purchase a lib
erty bond. The class was so thrilled
with patriotism lust before the big
drlvo for the sale of liberty bond,
that they hit sure they could do
this llunli
The Idea waa first suggested by one
of the members of the clasa. At
Hrci It looked a though It MlU not
be done, but after each student had
duly coiiHldered all ways and means
It developed that sufaeleel aunt
could be raised to purchase one bond
at least. The example they have set
la one that Is becoming to s real
scientific class but Just the sntouut
f sacrifice II will require will prob
ably be noticed sa the sudden drop
ping off of sales Ink the chewing gum
market and the possibility of fore
going the pleasures of su evening at
the movies. However, although the
mot lea may be forced to close snd
the chewing gum factoriea cease lo
be, the Ontsrlo High School scien
tific class are determined that Bill
Kaiser shall go tot be scrap heap also.
The bond was accompanied by plan
which each member Is now wearing
The members are: Harry Cleve
