We believe that cleanliness In
every way tpgplres children to
be neater and cleaner In their
habits and will encourage them
to do better work and to live and
play happier.
We also believe that If the
children help to do the clean-
ing they will have a deeper re-
spect for their school and will do
their best to help keep It clean
be beard, but as we thought ire
Cloud was only fooling us, as he
has so often done this summer,
we went on to Caradan. Several
rela drops hit us In the face as
a warning—hut still we did not
heed. Finally, as If In ptintoh-
,t for disobeying Are warn-
ing, it started to rain very hard.
Before we hardly had time to
turn around we were soak!
wet. Not- to have all our songs
and yells wasted to rein, we
gave them going home and quite
had quite a lot of fun. We were
a wet and bedraggled pep squad
when we reached our homes,
nowerer, we still hare our fight-
ing spirit and are ready for the
next game.
