Following the movie they gave a demonstration on the proper way in which to climb a flag-, pole. Fred Schott, a senior, assisted them in this event. It was an interesting and certainly a different type of assembly program. —D.H.S.— The sociology class of Deane Dorwin has been given a selfevaluation sheet and each member of that class is supposed to evaluate himself according to a set pattern. It is a tough job and one which many do not like. The results will be interesting just the same. —D.H.S.Don't forget the D-club banquet which is being held tomorrow evening.

tut which will be held at Greentown. Accompanied by Darrel Gerig, director, the band will leave for Greentown at 7 a.m. The band’s “contest numbers" are “Storm King", a march; “Laureate", an overture", and “Homage To Youth", a concert march. MHS wishes the band the best of luck in the contest! —M.H.S.— The singing of the hymn, “Fairest Lord Jesus", opened the chapel service last Wednesday. After another hymn, led by Mr. Gerig, Ron Bittner introduced Rev. Gerald, from the First Missionary church of Decatur. Rev.

The grade school service was held immediately following the high school chapel. —M.H.S.— An "honor J winner" for Monmouth lately was Lowell Beineke. Lowell was one of the two advanced math students who participated in the district scholastic contests which were held at Bluffton last Saturday.

Each student will now be required to write a report about the trip. Watch next week's column for a full report of the trip. From the snatches of conversation which have been heard this week the other Monmouth students have gathered that the freshmen had a good time in Chicago. The art students are again working very hard on a new project. This time they are making all posters for the junior class play. A great deal of work is involved in making posters which are all alike and are neat and easy to read. The “artists” are doing their best to make good posters for the juniors.!—: —- -
