Separate shelves are being constructed to house the volumes of books, pamphlets, bulletins, and monographs. The content of the library at present consists of twenty-five monographs of the A series secured from the Commonwealth Book Company. Each one describes a trade in a clear and concise lan guage which can be easily understood by pupils of the Junior and Senior high school level. There are three series, A, B, and C, which it is hoped will be completed in the future. In addition, there are over a dozen books, a few pamphlets and fifteen mono graphs of the occupational index type describing various trades. The nature of the literature is such that it will not only interest the junior and senior high school folks, but also adults. The general public is cordially invited to examine and inspect the library when it is completed. It is hoped that the youth of Dillon will avail themselves of the opportunity offered by this vocational guidance library and that in a small way it will be to their benefit. 0.

Has anyone ever told you of some of the shy, retiring Dorm girls? If they have, come and see for yourself how wrong those people are. The Dorm girls have at last been given their chance to show what they can do. The show is opened with a “bang” by a chorus of beautiful (?) girls who will sing and dance their way into your hearts (maybe), but anyway, they will try and you can’t blame them for that. After this opening the girls on the different floors and wings of the Dormitory will each put on a show well worth your while to take the time to come and see, so be sure and come early so as not to miss any of the fun, and so you’ll be sure to get a seat, a good one, that is. YOU’LL BE SORRY NCE again the Chinook staff is calling for snapshots—good ones, clever ones, funny ones—just any kind. All of the students of M.S.N.C. would like to see their picture on the snapshot pages of the annual. Oh, they may say “It’s too silly for words,” or some such statement about the picture, but to come down to bare facts, they will be sorry if no mention is made of them other than the few lines necessary to tell who they are. In years to come, the students may lose some of their prize snapshots but never will any of them lose a Chinook, so why not make this Chinook a permanent snapshot album? Prizes are being awarded to those handing in the best pictures. Who knows, you may be the winner. Enter the contest for if you don’t you’ll be sorry! 1 P A R T Y L I N E Ask those three freshman girls about “your cash store.” “Dolores” — Carol Miles. “Kiss the Boys Goodbye”—all the M.S.N.C. girls, as another one of our brawny heroes is “Caught in the Draft.” Have you noticed— Some of the changed expressions around the school since certain par ties have returned from their Thanksgiving vacations? That Pat Peterson is back in the Dorm with her pet Chameleon? Hurry! Hurry! Have your Chinook pictures taken early! Freshmen—the week begin ning December 8 will be Fresh man Chinook Week. During this week all Freshmen are to have their pictures taken. Make appointments at either the Orr or the Japanese- American stu dio. Sophomore, juniors, and sen iors, may use old pictures, but you must have a glossy print made. LA MAR MOORE WRITES FROM VISALA, CALIF. LaMar Moore, who is an aviation cadet in Visalia, California, writes interestingly of his life there. Eight flying cadets, he says, share one room; but each cadet has his own desk and locker for which he is personally and solely responsible. He also adds, “Our beds have to be made just so, for inspection comes every morning. If there is a wrinkle in one of the sheets or blankets, the cadet responsible is given one or three demerits. If he receives more than six demerits, he is confined to the post for the week-end. If he receives seven demerits he has to walk the hangar for an hour.” (We hope you are good at making beds, LaMar.) The first week in camp, the cadets were confined to the post, spending 4V2 to 7 hours each day learning how to march. The second week, they began ground school work in the afternoon. For an hour in the morn ing, each cadet flies with an instruc tor, the rest of the morning being spent on the flight line watching planes take off and land. There is a canteen at the post where cadets may buy stationery, stamps, candy, and tobacco. Lights are out at 9:30; cadets rise at 5:45. Their laundry costs a flat rate of $4.25 a month. LaMar is one of the second class to go to that school which has 60 upper class cadets and 75 beginners. There is still much work to be done before the school is completed, but when it is completed, it is to be the largest of its kind. At the time of his writing, Mr. Moore, like all lower classmen, was wearing coveralls but all had been measured for the tan uniforms in which they are later to appear. The letter closed with this state ment: “I’m hoping to hear from some of my classmates and schoolmates.” (We hope that a number of stu dents will write to Mr. Moore. His address is as follows: Aviation Cadet LaMar Moore, Air Corps Detach ment, Visalia, California.) THE EXCUSE PROBLEM “What are you going to give as your excuse?” “I don’t know, I’ve used every one I can think of.” Yes, this has really been a problem late ly. For help, read the list posted on the bulletin board. The one about the alarm clock is really getting worn out, but it does happen some times, especially when the droning sound cuts into the cold morning air and you roll over, turn it off, and doze for five or ten minutes—or more. Some excuses are really excusable, especially the one about “having a sick headache.” We all have them, but there are certain remedies to cure that nuisance. Of course, it does take time and an hour or so to lie down and sleep it off—the headache. There should be a book written, “Bigger and Better Excuses for Stu dents,” but there isn’t. In case the announcement is made that this type of document is to be published, this institution could contribute a good deal to it. For instance: Carried election returns to the dance; study ing for a make-up test in -------- ; went hunting; had a chance to coin $50, and took it; was delayed and detained in a barber shop; felt ill when I woke up, so I slept in; and the never-failing one—I had my hair in clamps and curlers and the nurse wouldn’t let me go out with a wet head! But until someone gets a brain wave of this sort, the old gray- haired excuses will have to do—that is, until our esteemed excuse com mittee gets tired of them and makes it impossible for us to further our education here.
