centag of class grade depends.
There are but few students who
failed in one or more studies last
remester. We are on our way for the
next semester exams.
Owing to the softness of the
ground we would like to see that
cars are not driven over the play
ground at this time. The ruts will
remain to be graded down before
track and field practice.
An oral recitation each week by
English two classes cerves a dual
purpose: (1.) Practice in speaking;
(2.) Search for current news of po
litical, social, and scientific charac
ter. It should lead to reading habit:,
and has been made obligatory once
each week.
The morning march has been re

Twice before the boys and girb of

never better than on this occasion.
G. A. Hood of the Pacific Power

and will begin very soon the wiring
of the new gym. Enthusiasm runs
high and the boys are doing every
thing they can to help.
Practice on "When a Feller Needs
a Friend," by the Freshman cla s pro
gresses slowly. They are trying
hard but their lack of experience
makes the work difficult for them ss
well as their coach. That they will
succes. fully uphold the honor of
their school goes without saying.
The play will be given some time in
March. Those of you who wish to
enjoy a pleasant evening should not
mks this Freshman play. It will be
good.
Clyde Oliver, one of the stalwarts
of the town, has been laid up during
the week with a bad cold. He does
not feel especially well just now
but manages to put in just about the
entire day at work on the High
school gym.
We appreciate the many friends
who are standing by us so loyally
and are assisting us in every way
they can to secure those things
which all boys and girls in High
school are entitled to have.
Shaniko School Notes
The report of the last school
month showed that less than 50
of all the pupils attended regularity,
being neither absent nor tardy. This
record is low compared with our at
tendance in October, when 90 of
our pupils were perfect in atten
dance. Some of the recent ab
sences were due to absence from the
town, but most of them were due to
illness. " Perfect attendance record
ed by departments were as follows:
High school, 80; Grammar school,
33 1-3; Primary, 25. Lets do
better next month.
Having been startled by reading
the above parents and guardians of
the boy3 and girls will not feel so
guilty when they learn that the per
centage of attendance wa.t 92 plus.
It is a case of a large number of pu
pils being absent for short periods.
There is, however, some room for
