EDITOR INDEPENDENT:-Dear Sir: Last
month one of my schoolmates wrote you a
few lines stating truly that the columns of
your valuable paper are always open to what
may promote the advancement of education,
and to impress upon the minds of the young
generation its absolute necessity in their
struggle through life. Now, convinced that
you do not object to the publishing of a
scholars communication, make bold to ask
you if you could spare little space in the
INDEPENDENT for these few lines.
The month of February 1882, has been
swept away by never-resting time into that
abyss where so many others disappeared;
and the second of the proclamations, which
has been looked for with an eager eye by
students of the different departments, has
appeared, and we are now launched into an
other month OF mental toll. The proclama-
ton took place on Sunday, the Goth of Feb
ruary, under the presidency of our beloved
principal and teachers, besides were present
several of the parents and friends of the
scholars. A few of the students of the diff
ferent departments favored us with select
declarations, which, judging from the way
applauded, pleased everybody present. AT
ter this the standing of the students CT each
division was proclaimed, and the results are
as follows:
EXCELLENCE.
Senior Department. Div, Mr.. Edward
Schofield; ii Div, Mr.. Ben Wall; 3rd, Mr..
H. Saindon; 4th, Mr.. G. Raleigh.
Junior Dept.--I Div, S. Mcdonald; II
Div, John Learney; End, James Learney;
Ord, John Morgan.
Primary Dept.-I Div, Chas. Mcdonald;
II Div, W. Rating; iii Div, A. P. Burke,
b. H. Moore.
Our dear president closed the exercises
with few beautiful and practical remarks
on the duties and life of a scholar, after
which we all retired animated with a new
zeal and ready to commence the struggle
with new courage.
Yours truly,
G. R., Student Holy Angels College.

A valuable COW on the premises of C. Kali

the heart.
The ball at Bozarth's hall on the 2lst in
slant, given by the Highfalutin Society,
was grand success. The Dew Drop car
ried many of the attendants to and from the
dance.
j. H. .Pieper has disposed of his mercan-

he still might succeed. JOHN SMITH.

A Bridge Sch eme.

For months past scheme has been origi-
mating itself in the minds OF a certain few
La Center people whose corner groceries and
boarding houses would be the actual benei-
Charles Of the same, to have the river at that
point bridged. This project has been the all
absorbing topic of many whispered consul
tation and combination among those whose
interests otherwise are widely at variance;
frequently antagonistic to degree only pos
sble in country village. That the deter
mination to bridge at La Center is deep, all
can see and comprehend by the determined
stand which was taken by this selicentred
community in opposing much needed public
improvements in other parts of the county,
to the end that their pet project should not
be frustrated by detraction of county
funds to another and more laudable under
taking, and by these means virtually kill, or
at least indefinitely postpone, the building
of a La Center bridge That the point des
ignated is not suitable one and assuredly
not the most convenient for travel, is,
think, apparent even to the most casual OBJ
server, and that the taxpayers do not want
to shoulder the unwarrantable extravaganza
Of bridging a stream in proportions of four
fifths swamp to one-ffth river is also an in
disputable fact more especially when p
miles below the natural advantages are such
that bridging could be accomplished with
one-third expense, and then. in reality, be
at the head Of steam navigation of the East
fork, if it is an object La Center worthless
ever to have it there. The county put a
ferry at La Center that cost 500; the peo-
pie showed their appreciation by allowing it
to float off at high water. Those that know
say it was an understood thing; as to that
everyone is at liberty to draw their own in
ferences. CAPAC.

FOREST & STREAM.-On opening our mail
one morning we found number of Forest d.
Stream, with request to give it notice. That
was hardly necessary, for we noticed it first
of ALT could not escape our notice. For
eighteen years it has been to those persons
who like the sport and recreation of gun and
rod, field and and food, an authority and
refuge 1t has settled their disputes, named
their species taken in the chase, furnished a
safety outlet for all their good stories of the
brook, the field and the summer vacations,
and given items of value to the sportsman to
be obtained from no other source. 1t is a
journal purely American in its inception and
conduct, and as such merits the hearty sup
port OF every sportsman. 1t is of equal
value to those who are too much engaged in
business or are prevented by circumstances
from taking to the field and the streams.
When the treadmil of toll stands still long
enough to permit business man to peruse
its pages he gets the same recreation from it
as from the chase, without itsfatigues. This
is also the only weekly publication of Amer
lea that is fully up to the times on the latest
topics of natural history and kindred sub
jects, and it is well worthy place on the
table of every Industrious reader 1t is still
published by the Forest & and Stream Pub
fishing Company, 80 Park Row, New York.
Subscription price 81 per year.
