Advice to Freshmen
Freshmen, for four weeks you
have been alloweel to tread the prim
rose pth unmolested and unadvised.
The time has come when we of the
senior class take it upon our shoul
ders to assume the responsibility of
letting you know in a slang phrase.
What is what. We do not expect
you to follow the various enumera
tions listed below but a vicissitude
is compulsory.
You must not employ machina
tions upon your superior fellow men.
You must condescend to please the
powers that be.
Your mien must be that which
cannot lie criticizerl.
Do not roost in seniors' cars.
You access to the dictionary is
limited.
If any member of the spnior class
does not wish you to speak, bow
your heael in utter submission and
pass on.
It has been said that the freshmen
have infringed upon the rights of
the seniors. The time has come (to
pass) when you must step down from
your perch and spend the rest of
your year m subjection. In otner
words, humble freshmen, "Watch
your step."
The Hikers Wienie Roast
Thursday of last week the hiking
club, composed of the teachers and
the high school girls, set out after
school, each girl carrj-ing all the
wienies, fruit, etc., that she thought
she could eat. In spite of the wind
that did its best to blow them out
of their course, they hiked out to
the Ahrens land on the south side of
the O street road. There they built
fire which nature fanned so vigor
ously that it had to be whinned
many times to make it stay in its
place as a good fire should. The
wienies and marshmallows were
roasted and eaten with the usualy
jolly picnic spirit. On the return
trip kind motorists took pity on the
plodding pedestrians and brought
them on into town.
Elsie Stool is back in school this
week. The total enrollment of the
high school now is fifty-four.
