Prophesy of High School—Evelyn Freeland. The public is cordially invited to these literary meetings. Mr. Stemler, representing the engraving which has the contract for the Chaos, spoke to the junior and senior classes Monday. He pleaded for co-operation among the students and the Chaos staff. The main difficulty lies in the ’fact that the students are rather slow in getting their pictures taken in order that the Chaos might send the material to the engravers at an early date. This should be attended to at once. The show given under the auspices of the manual training department Friday night at the Princess netted them $27.35. The last draft of the senior themes are due not later than April 12. The track team, consisting of ten men, will go to Burnett’s Creek April 14 to meet the team at that school. Daniel Guild has been elected captain of the basketball team for the ensuing year. The playground slide, which was donated by the Ladies’ Literary Club, has arrived. The children of he primary* building are enjoying themselves very much. The senior German class is now reading Lessing’s drama “Minna von Hamhelm.”
