Some of the latest ways of spelling are as follows:
“Witch” for “which,” “wheather” for “whether” and “steak” for “stake.” - For instance, Joan of Arc was burned to a steak.
The most striking thing about me is whenever I start a thing I finish it. For instance, problems in Algebra. - Fay Rush.
Who got the mitten? Ask George.
So near and yet so far. - C.K.K
John’s father was giving him some advice - “All I have to say is this: You’re going out into the world -- you’ll find the road rough. But strike out, my boy, strike out.”
“Not if I can help it.” replied John, “I’m going to be a base-ball-player.”
If the wind had only blown the other way,
We surely reached the town of Winn that day, (Ask the Skaters)

Perhaps the most important improvements made since the new school house was built are the electric bells and the new pictures. The bells go to all the rooms and there is also an outside gong. The new pictures, “The Angelus,” “Aurora,” “Sir Galahad,” and the “Good Shepherd,” are hung in the high school room and are very pretty.
