The grade boys are having great fun with their new vaulting pole. In De Kalb, on May 1 and 2, there is to be a district superintendent meeting. Miss Coe, the county superintendent ' was here last Tuesday for a short visit. The community club met at the high school auditorium last Thursday night. x * The Lyceum* number is to be held in the high school auditorium this (Thursday) evening. Preparations are being made for the rural grade examinations, that are to be held on May 8. The Public Service company sent a speaker up to give a talk to the physics class last Tuesday. In the Waukegan and Waucond* basket ball game, McHenry's Athletic ^association received $18 profit. Wauconda won the game by a 2 point margin, after 5 minutes overtime. Mr. Duker is going to Woodstock to attend the School Masters' club. The following matters are to be discussed. The helping of the schools, giving financial aid to the schools in the tornado stricken zone, the formation "of a circulating library for the rural schools. SCIENCE The Botany Class Studies the Spinal Cord of Plants Recently Mr. Tallmadge* developed p. new habit. He makes us study a trtain lesson for School and then he Iks to us for forty minutes on something that isn't in the book. We don't know1 whether we like it or not! Last week we studied the development of the fibro-vascular bundles in plants. The book pointed out that they , were comparatively recent but Mr. Tallmadge told us how the world must have looked When there were no supporting stems and all plants lay horizontal. He gave us a new ideal--of the plants of early history. We are co accustomed to thinking of them as our own but in reality they were not as large/' We think it is time for a Botany field "trip. Lucy Hughes has promised to guide us through the Tamarack jvoods if we should care to go there Jo look for flowers. t We are looking for hip boots at the wholesale prinse! Some one suggest- .ed that we go on horse back. The only objection is that the horses would have to be suspended from tree branches to keep from losing their shoes in the mud and we understand that many of the horsds object to the suspense thus caused. We tiiink, however, that we will go. If the physics class can go to Crystal Lake and the basket ball roys to all the towns in the neighborood we think we ought to see the tamarack, woods; especially if they are as famous as the teachers say they are. Physics Class Had Fine Trip The physics class is very grateful to Mr. Miller, of the Public Service company, for his veiy interesting explanation of the Crystal Lake Sub-station. He took them through last Wednesday. The boys have been looking forward for several days to the trip which has promised to show them the practical side of the distribution of electricity. It surely was a worthwhile trip inasmuch as it showed the enoi mous power that engineers had harnessed and the marvelous accuracy with which it is controlled. Mr. Miller's explanation was very interesting and concise. Chemistry .Claaa The chemistry class made sympathetic ink, indelible ink, and many other inks. They turned out good: Yes! we could write with them! The class been writing themes on ink, photography, cement, and other compounds. We like that kind of work very welL We hope laboratory will prove more interesting however. PHYSICS CLASS VISITS SUBSTATION The five boys forming the physics class enjoyed a very interesting explanation of the system on which the Public Service company operates. They were very lucky to be conducted thru the plant by Mr. Miller, who formerly taught physics at the University of Missouri. To begin ^rith he first explained how the generators at Waukegan generated 132,000 volts and sen#1 them down to Evanston, where the lines connect with the lines of the Commonwealth Edison people of Chicago. From Evanston a line is run to Crystal Lake via DesPlaines, while another is run from Waukegan to Crystal Lake via McHenry ; still another line comes into Crystal Lake from Dixon where it connects with the Northern Utilities company's lines. Each of these three lines which come into the Crystal Lake sub-station, carry 3$,000 volts. With this arrangement > the house to house service may continue even if two of the high lines go,.down in a storm. ' When the hifch lines come into the sub-station they are connected with a switch ihat may be grounded to prevent injury to those who are working on the lines. Inside the switch there is a wire leading down to a lightning Arrester which carries off the high frequency charge of lightning by means of chemicals. Attached to this wire leading towards the lightning arresters is the line that carries the current to the oil switches. To prevent the lightning from going to the oil switches there is a choke coil which permits on!y 33,000 volts to go through. Any higher current is forced down to the arresters. The oil switches are there so that any line may be cut off and another one switched in. From the toil switches the 33,000 volts, go to the transformers where it is stepped down to 2,300 volts. A single iron core is used in thtae transformers around which both primary and secondary coils are wound. There are three transformers hooked up in a series which makes it a three phase connection. The largest part of the current is then brought into the sub-station and from there dispatched to the different totfns which that station supplies. The rest of the current is sent to the potential transformers where it is stepped down to the voltage required for use in the sub-station. Inside the sub-station there a*e several machines that keep the voltage constant at all times as it is easily seen that more voltage is required at 8 p. m. than at 2 a. m. There "is also another piece of apparatus which keeps the amperage at the right point on the street lights to prevent them from causing a "yellow" light. This niacnine consists of an iron core and a stationary coil around it. Another coil is suspended around it by means of a pulley and weight. This produces a magnetic field. When other lights go on the amperage per light is lessened and the repulsion due myself. More news some other day. Yours truly, Sasbox. April 16, 1925 Dear Nickodemus: You had better see the junior class play. I visited the rehearsal the other evening and it was uproarous. Mr. Tallmadge directed the practice. He demonstrated by tripping in In his effeminate way and planted himself <>h the arm of Dick's chair. The climax came when, he tickled him under the chin. He gave a good demonstration of a horse,laugh too. We better ask him to officiate sometime when we are giving the horse laugh yell, I'm so peeved right now I could eat someone Everybody is crazy but you. . , V " Bored to tears, ' S a s b o x " ; April 17, 1925 Dear Nickodemus: Our Spanish class has been solving cross word puzzles latfy to improve their vocabulary. Fom one puzzle he learned the people love with their extremities. Haw! Haw! I guess _he's purty smart. Last nite we went out for a ride ir a real swell car. There's not much more than the engine and the front seat to the whole works, but it held eight people on, to say the least. Mayme ought to be an expert horsewoman after her experience of bouncing^ on the rear spring. She nearly shut off my supply of fresh air in ,het desperate efforts to stick on. ***> The only way you can keep warm is to put your feet on the engine. Toots had the advantageous point of sitting on the engine, but she said it didn't keep her especially warm. She had to bat her arms around like one giving signals in order to keep her blood circulating. We lost Floribel for a minute, but after ' much unpiling we discovered the poor dear at the bottom of the pile; that is, with Cornelia and Lill on top. Mayme was all the time apolo gizing for having her arm around Teddy's neck. She insisted she couldn't hang on any other way, but we all noticed that it wasn't especially distasteful tp her. I'll send you a picture of the open air bus some day. Feelin' good, Sasbox. P. S. Every now and then we had to reach out pnd haul Toots down out of the air. She just seemed to disappear whenever we hit a bump. JL PAPER NUMBER 27 "FOLLOW ME" Mr. Ralston bought a beautiful home on Mirror Lake in the Ozark mountains.

My Dear Old Nickodemus: - Old pal, you should be a member of our staflt. Hie other day we had a waffle party--but, strange to say. there weren't any waffles. Inspite of the fact there were no waffles, we had plenty to eat. There were wienies and rolls and barbecued steak and marshmallowt and mustard and sweet pickles and dill pickles an£ SALT, but no water. After eating the lion's share of this Mr. Tallmadge innocently declared he had lost his appetite temporarily, but my gosh I wouldn't htfve been surprised if he lost it permanent-, ly. » . Weren't we nuts, though, to go without drinking water? We found a spring, however, after much scouting around, but it was two feet below the level of the ground. Some of the gang dived down after it while the others drank from the pickle dish. Oh! Good nite! You should have seen Ernie. He tore his trousers on the fence. Ha! Ha! Today in our commercial law clas3 Gus was causing quite a disturbance with his feet. In order to prevent the noise she (teacher) moved him back a couple of rows where she said he would have plenty of room for his big feet. Now what do you think of that? I'm writing this the last period and there's nothing to do but whistle.1 ' ,. „ Yours truly, Sasbox. April 14, 1925 Dear Old Nickodemus: I made a very important discovery the other day and since it is so unusua! for me to discover anything I'll tell you, my best pal. What d'ya think-- There's only two boys in the whole high school that still wear short pants. Even Skeexis, the infant of the. schbol. has donned long trousers. To-day our editor caused an awful lot , of excitement in the building. Everybody ran to him from all corners of the building to get a peek at the new outfit The™ he was with a velvet suit--you know the kind. Little Lord Fauntleroy used to wear 'em. Too cute for words. I was dumfounded flowers of the most beautiful hues of red, yellow, orange and pink. Back of the house were large evergreen trees in groups that made a beautiful background for the house. » Catherine Ralston invited three of her college chums, Olive Harmon, Dorothy Holmes and myself to spend a week of our vacation at her summer home. William Ralston, a big brother of Catherine, took her to meet us at Spring Brook, the nearest town, which was five miles away. We arrived home about sunset, the time of day when everything is most beautiful. We all thought that Catherine had an ideal summer home and told her how fortunate she was. After supper we went down to the ,ake*ST»d there we found Bill with three other fellows from the next cottage. We a^l went to the show at the nearest town. After the show it was such a beautiful night we went canoeing on the lake. The next morning we got up early and dressed up in our knickers and sweaters and packed our lunch. Olive looked especially nice for she was very plump and had sparkling x>rown eyes and jet black hair. We started at eight o'clock on an all day hike up the mountains. It was a "beautiful morning. The sun shone brightly and "the birds were singing gaily. We were chattering together as we walked single file up the winding mountain path. Soon the clouds began to gather in the heavens, the thunder roared and the lightning flashed. Then the rain began to pour. We were frigtened to death-. "What shall we do?" wailed Catherine. „ "Oh! We will he struck by lightning," I screamed. . " "Let's go back," cried Dorothy. "But it's too far," said Olive. "We will find shelter some place.- Follow me!" So we followed Olive and kept on going. Olive was getting freightened herself for there was no house of any description in sight. Just a* soon as we turned a bend in. the mountains, quite a ways back from the road Olive spied an old house. "There's a housej',"8he cried. We all jumped for joy and started for the house. When we reached the house Catherine cried, "I hear all kinds of noises, I bet this is a haunted ho\ise, I've read about them in stories." "That is the lightning and thunder that you hear," said Olive, "don't be scared." There Were the most peculiar sounds coming from the attic, however. "That noise seems like a humar* being calling for help, so I am going to find out what it is," said Olive: , She then started fof the stairway: "Don't go, Olive, you will get hurt," cried Catherine. "There may be witches or ghosts up there,"-I cried, _• / / "Don't go! Dont go!*': #e;411_oried together. "Nothing will hurt me if you d*j, a,s I say," said Olive; "You come with me and stand on the stairs, if I'need .you I will call for help-" So we agreed to do as Olive said. Olive climbed the stairs and when she reached the landing paused for a moment. She heai^ a faint voice cry, "Let me out," from one of the roorhs She went to the door and turned the key. The door petted and there stood a little old man with a bag of money. Olive stepped back for she had never dreamed of seeing ap old man there. "Don't be frightened, itiy child," said he, "I just came up here to count my money and the door blew l^ut and I was locked in. I heard some one down stairs so I made a lot of noise so that they would come up and let me out. When we saw that it was art old man we were no longer frightened. He then told us to go down stairs and make ourselves comfortable. "How did you girls happen to get up in the mountains so far?" asked the old man. Olive spoke up and told him about how vip got lost in the storm. "How do you happen to liye up here all $lone?" asked Catherine. . He then told us that a long time ago he had read about the wonderful Ozark mountains arid that men were wanted to cut down trees in the mountains. He" said he wanted to go but his mother did not want him to. He said he was determined to go so one night he ran away. "Little I knew what I was up against," said he. When he reached the mountains they had all the men that were needed. He could not find work anywhere and he did not want to go home empty handed. He said that he met an ok! hermit that wanted him to stay with him for company, so he finally decided to stay. He said that the hermit had a lot of money and before he died he told him he could ave it all for taking care of him while he was sick. He said he did not want to go home with that money or people would think that he had stolen it and so he had lived there ever since. "My name is Frank Harmon," Ipaid >e. • At this Olive jumped from her chair and ran to him. "You are my uncle that mother told me ran away," said Olive. "We thought you were dead long ago." "Well if it isnt my brother's little Olive," he cried. "Thank God my people have found me at last!" John Fay told us that he knows a jeweler who eats the carats off his diamonds.

CAPTAIN "Sib*' Whiting Elected' Captain For J . 1925-26 Thursday a meeting was held to determine the captain of the McHenry high school basket ball team-. Eight members voted. ' "Jess" Whiting was not present, his vote being cast by his brother. There wore only three players eligible for the position, namely: Overton, Whiting and Barbian. The first vote cast resulted in a tie, Overton 4, Whiting 4, Barbian 1. The second cast also was a tie, Overton 3. Whiting 3, Barbian 2. J. Whiting's vote was not put in this time. The third cast resulted in Whiting b<?ing elected. Ex-Captain Overton of the "County Champs" was the first to congratulate the new captain. S. Whiting is well, equipped for his new position having shown himself up as a good player "in all his games. S. Whiting is a good man lor he can guard and can also shoot. We have confidence in "Sib" and are sure he will be the next captain of the team to receive a cup. All right nine rahs for Overton and nine rahs for "Sib." Rah, Rah, Rah! Rah, bah. Rah, Rah, Rah!

He thanked the team for the gift and praised them for the splendid co-operation through put the season. He seems well satisfied with the prospects for next year also. He then read the names of those who won letters for their work during ttie season. Mr. Duker then spoke of the rise of McHenry in athletics during the last two years. He mentioned the success of the football team in the past season and expressed his desire that the track team would give a good account 1 of themselves during the season. Mr. Duker then present the fallowing men with major "M's": Captain Overton, Captain-elect Whiting, Harold Bacon, Jesse Whiting, Augustine Freund, William Nye, Ernest Barbian, LeRoy Conway, Adrian Thomas. Also minor "M's" were awardedx to Earl Conway, Joseph Barbian, James Fay- Arthur Krause. ' ' After more singing and two yells led by Angela Petesch,- the party adjourned to the gymnasium where a few hours of dancing were enjoyed. The music was furnished by Carl Weber, Ernest Barbian, John Young and Herbert Schoewer. "M" Insure--in sure--insurance with Wm. G. Schreiner. Office at residence.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY Wt- extend our thanks to the patrons of the McHenry community high school, the members of the orchestra, and also the members of the cast for their support in helping us, the juniors, stage our play very successfully. Every member of the cast carried his or her part well. Don't you think that Catherine Walsh acted the heroine's part well and the same might be said of te truthful Frank Page. We hope that Frank will derive some benefit from his sirf weeks' endeavor to tell the truth. He just couldn't lie for the sake of the $10,000 and the heroine. Paul Patzke, although he filled a minor role in Clarence Van Dusen, gave the audience many laughs 1 y his own innate talent. He's going to be Harold Lloyd's understudy when "he grows up." ^ Arthur Krause as E. M. Ralston, Ernest Barbian as Richard Donnelly and Albin Anderson as Bishop Dorftn help considerably to make the play a success. Violet Vycital played the part of the irritable Mrs. E. M. Ralston splendidly. We cannot over-estimate the parts played by the dashing shebas, Lillian Baur as Mabel Jackson and Amelia Regner as Sable Jackson. Albin An derson, as the Bishop, took his part weto. Monday afternoon news came that Mildred Gibbs had the Measles. We thought surely that our play would be spoiled, but Mary McAndrews came to the rescue and took Milly's part very well. Frances May certainly did make a good maid. She surprised us Only a few can realize and appreciate the work of Miss Miller in staging this play so successfully, but nevertheless the junicbrs wish to give her special thanks in aiding themTi BASKET BALL BANQUET On last Saturday evening the students of the McHcnry high school honored the basket bail team with a banquet and dance. The dinner, which was prepared by the cooking class under the direction of Miss Stockebrand, was very delicious, consisting of chicken a la king, salad, potatoes au gratin, ice cream, cake and coffee. Needless to say the dinner was enjoyed by all. After we had finished eating, Mr. Koerner, the toastmaster, gave a short talk, telling us about his third and fourth teams and expressed his opinion that they would be the future FRQM THE Songs* "Somebody's Wrong" ..Algebra Class "Why Should I Worry Over YoU"...
