Evening Republican, Volume 23, Number 309, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 28 December 1920 — NOTES. [ARTICLE]

NOTES.

Notes, what* does this word suggest about school life in general? The first kind of notes that we will consider are those taken in the classrooms on lectures. Oh, how weary we become, writing, dotting, dashing, waiting for the end. The second kind are those passed in the Assembly Room. The teacher is reading when, “Zip,” “Pass,” “Pang.” The note has reached it’s destination safely. Third, there are the musical kind, if such they can be named, which are produced by the orchestra. “Oh, be merciful unto me.” What have we done that we should merit such punishment? , Then in conclusion, we might be permitted to name those notes which one carries to a banquet in expectation of a toast. First, a small card, few words, concealed in the hand or under the edge of the cloth and “all’s well that ends well.”
