High School Notes Tho seventh termers had a enndy pull at the home of Idrys Weimer on Saturday, March 29.3 The boys of the Senior class gave the Senior girls a party on March 21). A sketch from Mac Beth was given, after which they played games. A girls' athletic meeting was held on Tuesday. Many of tho girls gave enthusiasic talks en couraging the others to come out for tennis track and base boll. There was a heated discussion as to whether there would bo an indoor base ball team, or both. Much to tho regret of the students, Mrs. Hichurds, the Chemistry and Biology teacher loft for Minnesota on Friday. She was greatly missed in both Cemistry and Biology, out oven more so in athletic, because she was the coach of tho girls basket ball team. One of the most intoreiting lectures of the term was given to the Sociology class on Friday, March 28, by Superintendent Lonelier of the Boys and Girls Aid Society of Portland. Mr. Lonelier is a specialist in child ren's problems. He spoko con corninir dilfercnt classes o children: dependent, dulintpiont and defective, distinguishing them by telling stories of each type. On Tuesday morning, Major Jack Hamilton gave the students of James John a very Interest liiir talk concerning tho orphans of France, lie came under the Aiisnices of the American Com mitteo for Devastated France fiuikinif an anneal for the adop lion of some of these bereft children. He himself had been there and seen these little ones sillier. He tells how when the Allied armies were going thru this town in France to the from they saw homeless parents am children carrying their house hold goods on their backs. When the Allied Armies were coming back thru the city, retreating before the Huns, they saw many of the older pcoplo lying in the roads and naslures dead, iliey had drank the water that the (ionium Hides of the city hat poisoned to kill oil' the British Army. Tho Allied Armies load oil the children, who were yet a live, probably because they hai more strength than the old poo pie, into cars and sent them to mriiml. Hero their photo graphs were taken so that they coulil Do iiieutilied ny their par cuts where they would come to look for them.
