SCHOOL rlEETING.
All Three Members of the Board
Were Reelected.

The annual school meeting was
held at the high school last Saturday
evening. 1t proved a very quiet meet
ing and everything went along salts
factorily. Geo. E. Darling was elect
ed moderator, after which balloting
commenced for members of the school
board. There were two members to
be elected for three years term and
one to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Mrs. H. S. Judson, for
one year.
F. E. Newell was the first to be
balloted for and was reelected with
out opposition, except few scatter
ing votes. There was some opposi-
ton for the second member, but j. D..
Danielson was reelected over D. t.
Wheaton by vote Of 80 to 26. The
third, to fill the vacancy, Mrs. l.. G..
Spooner was reelected without oppo-
sition.
A sentiment of the people present
was asked as to the ACCESSIBILITY of
combining the seventh and eighth
grades of the TWO schools and placing
them both in the high school build
ing under two teachers, which seems
very feasible idea, and was discussed
and finally left to the discretion of
the board and an adjournment taken.
The attendance was not as large as
it should have been considering the
Importance of the meeting. Parents
who have children attending school
should make it a point to attend all
school meetings. School life of the
young are the most important days
of their entire life and too much care
and attention cannot be shown by
the parents.

selves of this glorious opportunity to

an evening of pleasure. The price of

Crop Prospects.

At the present time the prospects
for good crops in this vicinity were
never brighter, and if conditions con-
tinue unchanged to harvest the crop
will be the largest ever known in the
history of the county, The wet
weather together with the warm
weather has caused an abundance of
straw, even heavier than ever before,
and taken into consideration the large
crop and heavy growth of straw the
demand for binder Irvine is large.
The following taken from the Mime
apois Journal ought to serve as a
forewarning to the farmers that they
might place their order for Irvine early
and be on the safe side in case the
dealers should run short:
"Grain straws are numerous this
year and they are larger than usual,
which means that more Irvine will be
needed than the dealers have pro-
vided for. There is already a scarcity
in the market, owing to the fact that
some dealers were too cautious in
their orders and others have been
careless in not getting around in time
with their stocks. The same condi-
ton prevails IN Kansas City and
Chicago, where the dealers are tele-
graphing all over for twine.'

BASE BALL.
GraceYille and Norris to Have a
Tussle for the Hogshide.

The base ball enthusiasts seem to
be fairly aroused in our city, A large
crowd went down to the park last
Thursday to witness the game, and
all are anxious to see more, and more
they will see. Arrangements have
been made with the Graceville club
for two games here next Thursday
and Friday, July % and %, at the
Driving park. The Graceville team
has been playing excellent ball this
summer, while our boys have scarcely
played game, and close and ex-
citing game can be looked for. Our
boys have been practicing consider
able of late and none Of them seem to
have lost any of their old-time traits
and skill. The boys are working hard
to get base ball park closer to town,
and have already commenced on one,
and the people of the town should
show their appreciation and encour-
age them by turning out we'll to these
games. If they get the right kind of
encouragement they will push ahead
with the new park, and when it COM
pleted will bear provement and a
credit to the town. -
Go and see the two games to-mor.
row and Friday. The admission fee
is placed at the small sum of Is cents,
in reach of all.

The negotiation pending and spok-

which had not. developed far enough
to mention particulars, was for the lot
owned and occupied by c. A. Smith
as confectionery store. 1t was sold
to J. r. Kruger and Fl. B. Lund.
The purchasers, as you all know, are
two of our energetic and enterprising
business men. They have purchased
the lot with the intention of building,
at some future date, an imposing
business block, the first floor of which
will be occupied by themselves as a
drug store and a jewelry store and
the second foer to be fitted up for
first-class offices. The change will
be creditable improvement to the city
as we'll as to themselves. No changes
will be made in the present occupancy
of the lot this year.

The grand concert to be held in

week ofAugust is causing considerable
comment: and even anxiety anxious
to hear one of the finest musical treats
ever rendered in the city If plans
and expectations mature it will I'M
doubtedly equal, if not eclipse, any
thing ever produced not only in this
city but in the Northwest.
A glance at the array of talent is
enough to convince any one Of its su-
periority. The talent is not confined
to Morris alone, but includes some
we'll known singers and musicians in
neighboring towns. Miss Lois G.
Swartout, the charming contralto of
Herman, will take part, as will also
Miss Inga Arneson, the thrilling re-
otter, of Watson. The Misses Annie
Wells and Cora Hulburd will render
piano solos and duets, which goes
without saying will equal anything
ever heard. Then there is the ladies'
quartet, Mesdames E. J. Jones, E. F
Smith and F. A. Hancock and Miss
Laura Thoele, which is unequaled in
the state, and will be we'll worth the
price of admission. Besides the

SUMNER SCHOOL.
Those Who Are Taking Adyan-
taee OF the Opportunity.

The summer school has been in
progress three days. at the High
school, and promises to be the most
successful and satisfactory in the
history of the county. The conduc-
tors, Profs. Tibbetts and Wassen,
have both had great deal of exper-
fence in institute and summer school
work and are reported as presenting
line of work of exceptional interest
and of great practical value to those in
attendance. 1t seems to be the con-
sensus of opinion among the actual
teachers that the course of study is
perfectly adapted to the needs of
Stevens county teachers, and those
neglecting to avail themselves of its
benefits are making great mistake.
Teachers who do not hold normal
diplomas can i'll afford to miss the
professional work now being done at
the summer school.
