Yes, it's the dear "ole' Seniors a-

l.ne day is long. But after all, who
wouldn't be after a week-end like
the one just concluded.
Well, Ira, you prophet, you said
that you were going to make two
touchdowns, and sure enough you
did. That's fine Stowers. Keep up the
good work.
Jack, they tell me that you were
just a shade bashful Saturday night.

what were you doing sitting on the

Smithville.
Hubert, I never thought you'd do
vuch. Just robbing the cradle. You
better leave those "Fresh" girls a-

Lee and Bea witnessed a christen-

Freshman girl named her car "End"

Ethel Cartwiigh: >r' >t the week-
that
cat-
Tlie Junier class had a meeting
Thursday of last week to decide on
a class flower, class colors, and class
motto.
We had a hard time deciding on a
motto. No one could think of a good
one. We finally decided on "1 can,)
you can. we can." 1 thought the best
one was "If you lie down with dogs,|
you shall rise up with fleas."
That reminds me of the English
class last Friday. Mary Pearl was
asked to give a definition of the word
"velocity." She answered, "Velocity
is a three-wheeled bicycle." Frances
Williams was sure that "mutinous"
was a person who could neither hear
nor talk. Frank Green insisted
"posture" was a place you put
tie.
THEY DID THEIR PART
With the help of the citizens of
Bi.strop and the remaining student-
body the Pep Squad showed onlook-
ers how to celebrate a real football
victory last Friday night.
With only a moments hesitation in
which they got their breaths, the
squad in its entirety marched uptown
singing and laughing to the turn of
honks and yells.
Gathering in center of the street
near Frenchie's, ttne crowd gave an-
other yell and in that gala mood, they
reluctantly parted in the highest and
best of spirits.
However this was not ell that this
active group did. Since the beginning
of the game the Pep Squad supported
| the Bears with all the enthusiasm
j and loyalty that they could muster.
I Truly in a big way they sliow tTie
good (le school spirit.

"The Last Trail" is a story of the
bonier by Zane Grey. The scene is
: laitl at Fort Henry, where Col. Eben
ezer Zane with his family have built
up a village despite the attacks of
savages and renegades. The Colonel's
bri titer and Wetzel, known as Death
wind by the Indians, are the horde*-
men, who devote their lives to th*
welfare of the white people. A splen-
did love story runs through the books.
That Helen Sheppard, the heroine
should fall in love with such a brave,
skillful scout as Johuathan Zane
seems only reasonable after years of
association and defense of the people
of the settlement from savages and
renegade:".
