HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The program committees of the two literary societies held a meeting Tuesday evening and it was decided to have the" next meeting, which will be the last one of the year, a musical, to be given jointly by the two societies. It will probably be about April 30th. As this is the last of the second six weeks, the six weeks’ ‘examinations have taken a prominent part in the toils of the pupils this week. The seniors were given tests in both history and chemistry on Tuesday; and the juniors in English and German on Thursday. Lee Adams was absent the first of the week nursing a case of measles. The seniors, who are studying U. S. history, are about to finish their course and will then take up the study of civics for the rest of the year. The senior German class is starting to read “Harold,” a short play. The play, to be given by the seniors is being talked of a great deal and the one about to be decided upon will need about thirteen characters. This will be definitely determined next week, and the cast will bo chosen.
