High School Notes
__________ %
All of the High School students
were given their vaccination by
Dr. J. B. Tucker last Tuesday
morning. This precautionary mea
sure will prevent certain diseases
from getting a foothold amongst
the group.
We are proud that two of our
Junior students, Margaret Bjorn
stad and Jennie Sayers, won sec
ond and third places in the recent
selection of a Nome beauty Queen.
The bookkeeping class has pro
gressed very rapidly in their work
this year. They feel happy in that
more work has been covered than
is required in the course.
The first High School volleyball
game was played with the 53rd
Airways team resulting in our fa
vor. The team gives promise of
becoming one of the strongest in
the league.
In 1816 there was no summer
and birds froze to death in June.
The sun rose each morning red
and rayless, shedding little warmth
or light. The farmers planted crops
but the seed would hardly sprout.
For three years later few birds
visited the northern states. It is
said that the sun spots were so
large that they could be seen with
the naked eye through the smoky
atmosphere.
