We hope everyone had a Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Now that our vacation is over,
we’ll have to start studying again.
Kathy Strand visited here dur-
ing the holidays. We hope to see
her again soon.
Where was Teddy Thursday
night? A certain person found out
that she really has a temper!
The Sartwelle boys were here for
Christmas and we heard they got a
couple of “country girls” to cook
their breakfast!
Congratulations to Dolly and
Bonehead!
There was a great party on
Welch St. Sunday night. Everyone
there had a fabulous time, but
who gave everyone a sore throat?
Here are some suggestions about
what you should do if you get
caught in certain situations: “Your
Girl’s Dad Opens The Door, Just
When You Are Kissing Her.”
1. Kiss her Dad and then say,
“Happy New Year, Sir”.
2. Tell him you’re learning to
read lips by touch.
Your Girl Gives Back Your Ring:
1. Nonchalantly reply, “Oh, so
it’s you who had it.”
What did Ann do Sunday after-
noon?
We hear that Tommy, Carl, and
Janice have had their fill of wrecks.
Isn’t that right?
Has everyone seen Joan Carol’s
engagement ring? Congratula-
tions!
Seems as though Susan and Gail
have taken up painting since they
can’t find anything else to do.
What A Girl Is Like:
A Book—usually bound to please.
A Train—often gets on the
wrong track.
A Magazine—lots of fiction be-
neath the cover.
A Program—subject to change
without notice.
An Automobile—often runs peo-
ple down.
A Lamp—apt to flare up and get
turned down.
A Banjo—often picked on by her
friends.
A Thermometer—often of a very
high degree.
A Cigar—inclined to be puffed
up at times.
A Stove—often needs a new lid.
Happy Birthday to Kay Koerber
on January 1.
Everyone study hard and make
good grades—it’s almost time for
six week’s tests again.
