HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By Frances Hinkle)
School was resumed Monday after
the enforced vacation with a fairly
| good attendance. All precautions
are being taken to insure the safety
of the pupils. A nurse examines any
children who are suspected of having
| the flu every morning, and if any in
disposition is discovered the child is
sent home.
The stamp contest in high school
is now closed, and no stamps are to
be bought or sold on either side. It
is not known which side has won.
as Miss Ross, captain of the Golds,
has not returned to school yet after
an attack of the flu.
Teachers are ready and glad to
help any children who are forced to
miss school because of the flu. As-
slgnment of lessons will be made up-
on application to the various teach
ers, and a fair amount of work can
be covered in this way. The teach
ers urge this, as the progress of the
pupils and students has already been
greatly impeded.
The high school debate has been
postponed, and it is very doubtful
whether it will be held this year.
The per cent of children in all the
grades in each room that are attend
ing school this week is 44.

When your back is broke and your

bones knock and your tongue is
furred, and your tonsils squeak aud
your hair gets dry, and you’re dog-
gone sure you’re going to die; but
you’re skeered you won’t an afraid
you will, just drag to bed and have
your chill, and pray the Lord to see
you through, for you’ve got the Flu,
boy; you’ve got the Flu.
When
your toes curl up and your beit goes
flat, and you’re twice as mean as a

dismal course, and your food tastes
like a hard boiled hearse; then yoar

craw with moans and groans, and
sometimes, maybe, you get well,
some call it the Flu—I call it hell.
