puhlic School Notes

Steve Williams and CIVIL Ap Roberts
have been elected by the high school
to represent it in the high school de-
partment Of the Daily Cardinal, U.
of W., Madison.
Some would-be funny folks cracked
some stale jokes Monday evening, i. e.,
they piled some loose lum Der against
the school house door. One can easily
imagine the fun they had putting it
there. it was so much easier than it
would have been to do the same
amount of work at home.
A number Of pupils went to Hudson
Monday to meet the returning
soldiers.
Last Friday closed the second
month Of the school year. The records
show only two cases of hardness in
the high school during the month,
while the per cent of attendance was
1924. Not a bad record, but it might
be better.
Miss Liens room had but one case
Of hardness last month Good.
Make it one better,
Three hundred and forty-seven diff
ferent pupils have been enrolled in
the schools this year.
The average daily attendance Of the
whole school for the last month was
two hundred eighty-three and half,
while the average enrolment was
three hundred five.

adorns the front wall of Miss Guiser's
room.
And still the pupils come, One
more in the high school and two more
in the grammar room since our last
report.
The foot ball team had arranged a
game with Saltwater high to be play
ed in this city next Saturday, but
Saltwater Cancelled the game. Since
then ARRANGEMENTS have been made
whereby the team goes to Hastings to

find their opponents a strong team,
but they propose to give a good ac-
count of hemselves.
The banks will be closed next Tues
day, day Of general election-a holt
day.

barn on his residence lot on the cor

just vacated by Mr.. Olmstead on Cas-
cade Avenue.
At her home on last Saturday night
many invited guests we're delightfully."-
entertained by several members Of
Miss Powells music class. Each num-
Der richly deserves special comment
and praise. The accuracy and grace
with which the younger members OF
the class executed their parts was
simply wonderful The good work
that is being done in our little city
along musical lines should greatly in
terest our people These recitals
given by our young people under such
pains-taking direction as Miss Powell
gives are the most enjoyable enter
tainments we have.
