Central Normal Notes.
By Uno Who
The great secret of success in bust
ness is advertising. No money ex-
pended on that is ever lost. Others can
| learn lesson from the C. N. c., when
| it is known that Pres. Stryker has spent
over $500 ia printers ink, and before
the year is closed the bin viii be over
$1,000.
| A debating society has been organ
lied, composed of the students of the
advanced class in German. All the
deliberations are in German. Tuesday
they discussed s'Holz ist mehr nuttslich
ais Eisen.'
! The science and scientific. classes
deliver the third series of final essays
next week.
| Profs. Hill and Wright and Mr.. c. L.
Hobart went to Hoisington to assist
the Peak Sisters.
The teachers class was greeted with
another crowded house Saturday even
ing. And they deserved it. All ac-
quilted themselves well, particularly
Frank Gum, who impersonated the
negro, and III. III. Tracy, who played
the Irishman excellently. The best
exercise was mock Gen. Ex., in which
the several members of the faculty were
unprecedented. Notwithstanding the
jam, the reunion was held.
Prof. Striker says he will enroll fifty
new students next week, and before
the term ends, seventy-five. Thus far
200 have been enrolled. fifty of them
are from the city. The citizens are
invited out Tuesday morning to the
organization for the term.
| Prof. Gaines headed q crowd that
went duck hunting Monday. Six
trophies reported.
They say tenors should not firt with
sopranos.
The regular classes will be organized
next term. AS the majority attending
will be teachers, classes will be furnish
ed to suit their needs. The botany
class will go to the fields, and the
zoology class will do considerable dis
secting.
The following very complimentary
letter was received by Prof. Wright, a
few days since. Coming from the
source it does the Prof. may well feel
proud of 1t.
ITO whom it may concern: 1t affords
me pleasure to commend Prof. E. E.
Wright as a teacher of elocution and
dramatic reader. Prof. Wright has
been for some time past under my in
struction and know he is well acquaint-
ed with the elements and principles
of expressions and most successful
teacher. He also possesses rare talents
and attachments as dramatic reader.
In some styles have never heard his
superior as reader. I can confidently
commend him as a teacher who will
give invaluable instruction and as
reader who will entertain and delight
an audience
Wednesday eve., next Co. OBJ Of the
drilling company will give an entertain
ment at the opera house. The program
speaks for itself, the ability of the
performers being well known in the
city. Admission, 25 cents. The pro-
ceeds will go to furnishing supplies for
the company and also to the Congrega-
tional church. During the evening,
refreshments will be served by the
ladies of the church. Come out and
help the cause along.
