We enjoyed our Hallowe’en party very much? There was a parade, games, popcorn, candy and apples. Our guests were Mrs. Whitehead, Mrs. Darr, Mrs. Strieby, Mrs. Ray, Mrs. Ruple, Mqs. Harvey and Juanita Trailer. We want to thank the mothers for our refreshments. Fifth Grade. Tests were the order of the week in our room the past few days, the goal being better report cards. However, several people tried to rest on the laurels they - had won last month and it just wasn’t successful. We wish to thank the parents for their cooperation in making our Halowe’en celebration a success. There were some very attractiv and interesting costumes. Duane Unrue made such a good girl that few people knew it was a boy. He says he’s glad he’s a boy and doesn’t have to wear high heels. Sixth Grade. It does’nt seem possible but the school year is one fourth gone already. Teacher’s convention and Hallowe’en are past and we are looking toward Thanksgiving.

Seventh Grade. Kenneth Metcalf has moved to Elkhart. We were all very sorry when we heard this. Mir. Beck told us some news that we liked. He said our history grades were better this month than last month. We hope he will be able to say that next month. The absent members this week were William Cory and Billie Applegate. The first two months we used our language books and now we are using our literature books. We think we will like it. Eighth Grade. The fourth meeting of the Up-to-the-Minute club met with the president in charge. The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. The Spic and Span committee gave a report of what they did. Members then payed their dues. It was moved and seconded that an announcement be made to the seventh grade about what the Spic and Span committee is doing so that they will cooperate. The Clean-Up committee also gave their report. The election of officers was as follows: Priscilla LeCount, chairman of the Clean-Up committee, and her helpers are Harold Halsey, Mary Droke, Kathryn Clouse and Carl Shroufe. The chairman of the Spic and Span (Continued on page 8.)

.\l' 1/ u, MEN LOVE >Btß‘ girls with rtr If you are peppy and full of fun, men will invite you to dances and parties. BUT if you are cross, listless and tired, men won’t be interested. Men don’t like “quiet” girls. When they go to parties they want girls along who are full of pep. So in case you need a good general system tonic, remember for 3 generations one woman has told another how to go ’’smiling thru” with Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. It helps build up more physical resistance and thus aids in giving you more pep and lessens distress from female functional disorders. You’ll find Pinkham’s Compound WELL WORTH TRYING!
