SNOWBALLS:
Must we throw snowbeulls? This is a
question which confrents Milne Junior
students. Of course everyene will agree
thet it's gre:t fun, but not around

Window. Just think this over carefully,
will you?
SPEED LIMITS AND NOISE
Cuntt we heve ¢. huppy medium? First
we go ruaning up the stuirs und then we
slowly scunter up the stirs. When
we run up the stairs we shove everybody
out of the way, and there is dunger of
