At the last meeting of the State Nor

the presidency of the school. President
Avery, after due deliberation and to the
great regret of all concerned, decided to
not accept the reelection rendered to
him by the board at its last meeting.
The students attending the normal hav-
ing unitedly presented a petition to the
trustees, praying for the appointment OF
Prof. j. Z. Perigo to succeed Mr.. Avery,
in view Of the latter's declination, and as
MI. Perigo's recommendations and work
we're satisfactory in every respect, the
choice of the students was adopted and

was unsolicited by Mr.. Perigo and this
spontaneous manifestation of their at.

gratifying to him. The salary offered

president-elect will assume the duties Of
the new position next week.

The Worlds Drinks

Beer was the universal drink of the
English until the introduction OF tea
and coffee about 1850. Siberians prepare
an Intoxicating beverage from mush-
rooms. In Sweden an appetizer is made
from common fennel. The word brandy
is from the Dutch "Br andwijn''-burnt
wine. Maraschine is distilled from
cherries, the fruit and seeds being
crushed together. Absinthe is an alco-
ho}ate composed of anise, coriander and
fennel, favored with NORWOOD and col
ored with indigo and sulphate of copper.
Curacao is made by digesting orange
peel in sweetened spirits and favored
with cinnamon, cloves or mace. Kisch-
enwasser is distilled from cherries. Yer
muth is composed of white wine, angel
lea, absinthe, and aromatic herbs. Kim
mel is brandy sweetened and favored
with coriander and caraway seeds. Tea
has been grown and used in the East for
ages, from India to Japan. Coffee was
introduced into Persia in 875, and into
Europe in 1915. Cocoa was sent to
Europe from Mexico by the Spaniards
in 1920. Eating is more important than
drinking, and especially on a journey,
When travelling, you should take the
Burlington, whose dining cars offer all
the delicacies of the season, exquisitely
prepared, and are operated on the cafe

own selection. Many other advantages

A Month Of Early Growth

April will long be remembered, says
Director Bronson in his bulletin for
April just out, as the month of early
growth. The preceding month had been
the driest March in the state since obser-
vations began to be taken. January and
February were also months OF unusual
drouth. Three months of such weather
rendered the soil very dry and farmers
began to despair of being able to pillow at
all. But the copious showers of the mid
die and latter part of the month changed
conditions amazingly. The farmers put
in every minute they possibly could in
seeding, and the rain falling on newly
sown ground caused q swift and crafty
lug start to be given spring crops.
What promised to be a backward spring
and failure Of crops has actually resulted
in a fine growth full three weeks ahead
of the average spring in this region. The
rainfall was above the average for the
month.

The Salary Equalization.

The Salary Equalization.
Beginning June LIST, an adj ustment Of
all employees Of the Northern Pacific not
paid according to the schedule, will go
into effect, including those Of general
Office employees, agents, etc. No change
in rate of paw of train and engine man
has been made. No great change is
made in any n case, either of increase
or decrease. The section men nov get
$1.25 instead of Sl.35 per diem, 10 cents
more than the same class of labor gets
on the Great Northern and other roads.
Attention is paid in making the new
rates, to the class Of labor, the degree of
intelligence and ability required, the cost
of living, and the demands of the road.
In no case is the reduction SO great as to
cause encouragement or dissatisfaction
so far as can be learned. There seems
to be a realization of the circumstances
under which the readjustment is made
and cheerful acceptance of the same.
