Lincoln High.

The German entertainment was an
enjoyable event of Friday. - This is
an anual event at Lincoln and always

ly attractive and a large audience
listened attentively to the different

given by the students.

held an Important meeting in Room
310. A very difficult question for
the class to decide is, "from where to
graduate."
It is evident that the school audi
torium is too small for so large a
class and the expense of an outside
graduation is very large. A commit
tee is working hard on the program.
The February '17 class will decorate
the stage for the graduates. This will
be an established custom In the fu
ture for the remaining seniors to deco
rate the stage for the departing gradu
ates.
The question of the June class float
In the Rose show, was also discussed.

cided to hold a tag day, but Instead
of the usual worthless tags there will
be sold something useful. This will
be a fancy blotter.

Franklin High
-By Vera ElwelL
Last Friday Memorial day was ob
served here. A few of th old vet
erans visited us, and a program was
given in their honor. The program
was as follows: Reading of Lincoln's
Gettysburg address, by Wylie Doran;
"The Little Green Tents," Eloise Mc
pherson; "The Blue and the Gray," by
Genevieve Spriggs; an address by I
A. Melendy. Music was furnished by
the double quartet. Those belonging
to the quartet are: Nellie SandPis,
Helen Johnson, Helen McCready
Lorlne Geinrich, Fred Kelly, Wesley
Reynolds, Carl Wilson and Wylie
Doran.
School was also dismissed at
O'clock Friday on account of the track
meet. A number of the students went
to hoost for the home boys, and were
proud of the showing made.
Last week the domestio science
girls gave another luncheon for the
benefit of the Franklin high associa
tion. Sandwiches, salad, and fruit
gelatine with whipped cream was
served at five cents apiece. Five
dollar's and fifty cents was cleared.
More of these luncheons will probably
be given in the future.
The Ice cream sales have been going
on with the same success as that with
which they started out.
The Home Economics club has
grown so large that It Is Impossible
to take all the girls at once on a fac
tory visit. Therefore the club will
hereafter be divided Into two parts
the domestio science girls and the
domestic art girls. This next Wednes
day the domestic science girls expect
to visit a large bakery. The domestio
art girls will, without doubt, go at a
later date.
S. F. Ball, principal of Franklin and
nis secretary, Mrs. warde, axe ex
tremely busy arranging the records
for next term. The records of the
commercial departments have to be
gathered together and arranged In
proper order. Several new subjects
will be added to the curriculum next
term, when the new building is opened
and a list of the equipment needed in
each one of those, as well as addi
tional equipment in the old subject
must be made out and sent to the
school board. The commercial depart
ment will not be separated from the
other part of the school as hereto
fore, but the students will be seated
according to their credits, those hav
ing the highest credits In both de
partments, being seated together.
Besides this, permanent records of
the school since the beginning are
being compiled. Mr. Ball and Mrs.
Wards hope to have all the work com
pleted by the time the new building
is occupied so as to have everything
go along smoothly.
The new building Is nearing com-
ar
pletion rapidly. Almost air of the
rooms on the second floor ara plas
tered, and the men are working on a
wonderful frlese In ths library. In
the second wing of the new building
ths concrete floor is nearly completed,
and the workmen will probably be
laying the brick in a few days. The
second unit has progressed wonder
fully. The concrete foundation will be
In in a few days and they are working
on the concrete floor.
The Parent-Teacher association has
been working to get the Richmond
street car line extended to the grounds
of the new building. At present there
Is no line nearer that the Ml Scott,
which Is about five blocks from tne
school. There will probably be be
tween 1000 and 1200 students in the
school this fall, and when the build
ings are all completed, there win be
about 2000. These students will come
from a raduia of about three miles
and better street car facilities will be
needed. J - !
Efforts have also been made to ex
tend the streets south of the grounds,
so that the school may be reached bv
them. Several former attempts have
been made to open these streets, but
they have been unsuccessful. However
It is ald that there Is every hope for
success now.
A committee has been at work try
ing to get a branch library out In the
vicinity of the school. There are a
number of valuable books which can
not be had In the school library, but
that could be found In a branch
library. These books are necessary to
the school work, so every effort is
being used to secure the library.
The commercial class in second
term mathematics will devote two
days to the practical work of a clear
ing house. The class will take up the
daily duties of a bank, thus broaden
ing the work in- mathematics by ap
plying it to actual business transac
tions. a
The Salesmanship club held Us
meeting Wednesday, and a lecture was
given by Mr. Stelsel on "The Psychol

sidered. The Salesmanship club is in
charge of the tickets for the Inter
scholastic track meet at Multnomah
field, and will use this opportunity
to put into practice the theories of
salesmanship studied at the meeting.
Much Interest is being shown by the
commercial student in the "Commer
cial Law-Giver," tho paper which is
published and posted In the halls
twice a week by the Students of the
law class. The "idea of publishing
this paper was originally Mr. Clark
