PET SHOW??
A few months ago our Student Coun-
cil spread the news through the school
that it had planned a pet show. 4 com
mittee to take charge of the arrange-
ments was appointed, but what happened?
The rules of the show were announced.
The date was reported to be "fn the near
future."
Yet, in spite of all these plans
and preparations no positive date was
set. The students are still waiting for
the promised pet show.
The students were interested in
this affair, and pets were all ready to
be exhibited. This precedent as q gen-
eral practice is not to be applauded.
HAVE YOU A BRIGHT IDEA?
The Girls’ Athletics Club of Milne
is sponsoring a contest to obtain new
cheers from the talent of the student
body. Perhaps you've never tried your
luck at moking cheers, but now is a good
time to start. As an incentive the
G.AeCe is offering a two dollar prize to
il cheer. These cheers mst have ac-
,vions to 40 with them. Either write out ;
,’he actions on the paper or show them to
© Senior High cheer leader,
Just remember, if you want
cheers, you must work for them.
anyways; you may win!

CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE
By Prof. Ixnay
As first president, founder, and
member of the A.E.P.S. (Anti-Emily-Post
Society), I take it upon myself to speak
to the members of Milne High School
The manners of Milne High students
are absolutely vindicative. Each time
the buzzer buzzes for cless dismissal,
everyone crowds to the door to get hims
self out first. It shouldn't be that
Wayt If everyone would help everyone
else push, it would be O. K. Under the
"Gnu Deele," we need and demand bigger
and better pushese
another point I want to bring up is
that of throwing "spitballs." They're
horrid for the simple reason that one's
hands get a11 messed up in moking them.
Now all this would be simplified if
one used "Ixnty's Patented Collcpsible
Bean Shooterj" They're accurates Sold
exclusively at Sckwolsky's Super-Depart-
ment Stores (cdve)«
Milne students should not only
shake hands to start their wrist-watches
but also gut of courtesy. Speaking of
wrist-watches, I wanted to tell you of
mine! It's such a good one that it will
do an hour in forty-five minutes.
Well, remember what I told you and
watch out for your "Eti--Etic---er uh--
Et--oer--Etic--I mean manners,
P.S.e When you eat soup buy "Ixnay's
Patented Noiseless Soup Spoon - sold ex-
clusively at Schwolsky's Super-Depart-—
ment stores (adve).
