IMPROVEMENTS

Anyone passing the school last Saturday morning might have beheld two high school students busily at work (it is possible!) They were building a road with implements usually associated with the manly art of ditch digging.

They were building what they believe to be a vast improvement to the school grounds—they know you don't, but don't shatter their youthful dream.

All this fall, those using this path, which connects with the road behind the school, have jumped over one puddle after another, usually landing in the middle of each one.

These two girls, who use the path daily, decided to make the trail. They were very proud of their stone steps until some mysterious villain of villains broke them. However, the mere mention of Mr. Rasmussen's name worked wonders and the structure has remained for five days so far.
