THE MOUSE BEFORE CHRISTMAS BY ABIGAIL MILLER 'Twas the week before Christmas break, and all through De Kalb, not a Creature was stirring–well except for the mouse. Just like Santa, he came down the chimney for a surprise. The students were all screaming, but it was not with delight On Monday, December 13th, in Mr. Wardlow's first hour class, a mouse decided to be Santa for the morning and come down out of the ceiling. “I just turned around to ask Wardlow a question, and I saw it climbing out of the hole in the ceiling,” says Senior Rebbie Reagan. Although it was nice of it to stop by, the students decided it was time to say goodbye. “ I went and got a box, and when I came back, it had gone behind the filing cabinet. I moved it, and it jumped out and was running around the hallway,” says Mr. Wardlow. Eventually other classes heard all the commotion and wanted to see what was going on, so Mrs. Hansbrough's class came out into the hallway. “I saw a mouse running so I just dove for it,” says Senior Janessa Bowen. After capturing the mouse, they put it in the box Wardlow had found, and it didn't seem to mind until it jumped back out and Brayton Furr had to pick it up and take it outside. “It made me feel like a superhero,” says junior Brayton Furr.
