EDITORIAL Many of the high school students nave been neglecting to show their thoughtfulness and friendship to others who are sick and unable to attend school and enjoy the spring sunshine. Why not go and spend a few minutes a day chatting and talking to relieve the monotony? Spring fever has got into the bones and minds of most of the students and they are beginning to slacken up in their school work, counting the days until the long awaited April 15. Remember thou ;h that school life isn't half so bad as the life two of the boys of school are leading lying in bed these beau tiful spring days. Do you enjoy the Friday after noon programs? If you do you will surely enjoy the out of school func tions sponsored by it. Loyalty to the school should come before your other activities. You should feel that you ought to put school first above all. It needs the support to keep it financially above board. Lets' pfut school functions first. Teachers to La Grande.

Juniors Show Radio Talent Anson Rugg gave the assemb v a great big surprise last Friday dur ing the Junior radio program. An son was the most reverend Mr. Hang Nails can you imagine It? He sent out a most urgent call for the ladies to all attend the egg shower on Mrs. Oattleberry and ad ded that "the ladies will meet Mon day and lay eggs in the vestibule." Roy Gentry made his appearance in a wheel chair and the announc er, Francis Nickeison, told the aud ience that they were looking on the haggard countenance of Professor All-But-Gone (as if the audience couldn't see that), eminent physical culture expert. The professor lead his radio fans in a group of setting up exercises that made "of me the man I am today." This statement was followed by violent coughing which left doubt in several minds as to the prof's physical well being. The local Eddie Cantor, Marvin Morgan (we want Cantor); Bing Crosby, who being absent was sub stituted by Francis Nickerson; and Rudy Valee. Matt Kenny, sang "We Ate the Boloney." Then Paul "Snooty" Phelan came out on the platform and was intro duced as the" Baron Munchausen. The Baron told a story of a man who had accidentally killed his lit tle dog Fido; so he skinned the dog and gave it to a neighbor, whom he disliked very much, saying that the dog was a possum. The neighbor and his wife decided to go to the country for a few days, and not wishing the possum to spoil, they gave it to Aunt Chloe, a colored mammy, who had a reputation as being a wonderful cook. Mr. Brown was attracted by the smell of pos sum and sweet 'taters as he walked home that night so he stepped in and had supper with Aunt Chloe. When he had gorged and gorged he asked Aunt Chloe where she got such a fine fat possum and upon finding out it was his dear depart ed Fido, poor Mr. Brown stumbled outside, and leaning weakly against the door, gasped: "Fido, Fido, I Nothing does so Trying days?

"And now little Hotsy Totsies you are going to hear your own dear Uncle John (Billy Thomson)." Un cle John, famous bedtime story tell er came out to the mike with a bathrobe on and a lighted candle in his hand and an unearthly grin on his face. His story was some thing like this: "And the wolves jumped at little Red Riding Hood and they tore off a leg, and they tore off the other leg, and they pulled off an arm, and they pulled off the other arm, and they bit utt her head, and they chewed her body into bits, and there law poor little Red Riding Hood, just one mess of flesh and blood and bones all gory.
