SEWARD SCHOOL NOTES!
Where were the school children of
Seward borh? In Alaska, 34; Wash
ington, 14; California, 8; Oregon, 2;
Pennsylvania, 2; and one pupil in
each of the following: Colorado, Wy
oming, Utah, Oklahoma, Idaho, Japan.
Could the 34 have been more fortu
nate? We’ll say not.
Baseballs and bats are much as evi
dence, and New England is still blan
keted with snow. Outdoor basketball
and volley ball will soon' begin. A
committee of boys has been appolnt
1 ed to get the equipment in shape.
Now that the fortune teller has gone
we are again getting back to normalcy.
The Van Gilder was a mecca for the
time he was in town. But the high
school pupils showed up the would-be
1 wielder of mysticl powers. ' Ask Wil
lis Perry to show you the complete
notes of his skilfully planned visit to
the modern medicine man as taken
down in shorthand by Willis’ secre
tary. We claim that he’d better play
it safe aDd deal with the future rath
1 er than the past of people. NexX bluf
fer step up, please.
j At the usual assembly Friday morn
ing the pupils* enjoyed the take-off on
phrenology and palm reading as plan
ned by the high school pupils. Willis
Perry played the part of the mystic
seer with lull equipment of crystal,
1 incense burner, black robe, dark gog
1 gles and even Mr. Jones’ black cat.
' And what he didn’t tell ’em of their
' past didn’t exist. The large number of
' gaping mouths changed into laughing
• ones when the bluff was exposed after
the “doings.”
Miss Stella Fuller gave another of
her series of first-aid lectures on Fri
day afternoon. The pupils are Indeed
fortunate to learn first-aid work from
one who knows the field so thoroughly
and demonstrates so clearly.
The class in Vocations, whom Mr.
H. E. Wilson addressed recently on
the fundamentals of banking, were
conducted through the local bank at
the usual class hour, Friday after
noon. Mr. Wilson and his assistant,
, Miss Inez Waugh, courteously explain
| td the functions of the various de
partments. Incidentally the class saw
more money than they have had the
pleasure of seeing for many a moon.
And we’re all ready for the begin
ning of a new week. Only eight more
| to go. The first thing on the program
is a wiener roast on the fceach at the
noon hour, Tuesday. Don’t forget to
1 tell the folks that you won’t be home
to luncheon.
