The journalism class was a little worried last Wednesday when Pat Minis suddenly got a dedicated look on her face and started to count the holes in the acoustical tile on the ceiling. The class had just finished a discussion of feature writing. Feature writing consists of han dling an every day subject in such a way that it becomes in teresting reading for the public. Pat immediately decided that she wanted to write a story about how many holes there are in the ceiling. During the rest of the week journalism students were seen counting the number of stairs in the building. One enterprising student even added up all the locker numbers in the school. By the way, at latest count, there are 252 holes in one square of acoustical tile. Flowering Peaches Should Be Pruned Flowering peach trees should be pruned either now or after full bloom when blossoms have fallen from the tree, according to C. B. Cordy, county horticul ture agent. Cordy said pruning flowering peach trees now will result in fewer blossoms this season. He explained that heavy pruning of trees after blossoms fall will force new growth of wood and increase the number of blossoms for next year. Summer - flowering peaches should be pruned in the winter and spring flowering peaches should be pruned after blossoms fall, Cordy stated. Spring and early summer are the most likely times for torna does to accur because of the col lisions of cold polar air and air streams from the gulf's warmer weather. in o look for the 14 A fillin ' This is your assurance of 1116 aOIUII cleanliness.
