UPPER HIGHLAND
The Highland Literary Society met
Friday, February 24. One of the in
teresting things on the program was
the reading of the "Highland Bugle",
our Literary paper. It seems to spec
ialize in making the youth and maid
ens of Highland blush.
The debate was fast and furious
both sides had extremely good talks.
The judges gave the decision to the
afirmative side. The next subject
for debate is, "Resolved, that single
life is more pleasant than married
life." The leader of the affirmative
side is Philip Wetmore, his colleagues
are Lawrence Mudgett and Loeta
Nicholas. The leader on the negative
side is Mildred Simms, her colleagues
are Mrs. Skidmore and Mrs. Ches
lick. A good program will be render
ed by the school and community. Ev
eryone is cordially invited to our
meetings.

Our play shed has certainly been
some help to our school during the
rainy weather we have had most of
the children have been incerasing
their muscular system wonderfully, as
it takes some " strength to cross our
horizontal ladder. We also have a
new trapeze, and rings. But maybe
Avis Nicholas will learn some day
that a horizontal ladder is not to fall
off of, as the poor girl crawled up
on it the other day and rolled off just
because she saw some one else do it.

of it, as she injured her head and
back.
After so much wind and rain, we
are now enjoying some warm spring
