"The class in Latin viii now recite," said
the Latin teacher at onei of the city high
schools the other day. r. q,
The members of the class in Latin con-
sisting of 80 or more bright looking girls,
with three or four boy$iacame forward and
took their places. All moved along smoothly
until the declination Of the noun "donum'
was in order and them there was trouble
1t was the ablative that caused the trouble.
For the benefit of those not acquainted
with the mysteries of Latin it may be men
toned right here that the 4blative is ''dono"
and the pronunciation is the same as if one
should say don't know, 'slurring the two
words, as is so frequently done, to don
know" r,r,

of the class, what is'the ablative of

for a satisfactory trade this week, both in
the retail and wholesale branches of the mar
ket. Trade logging horses was quite active.
Although on q retail basis. the aggregate sale
was large. The requisition Of farm horses both
in North Dakota and Manitoba must be
gent, evidenced by the large purchases Of such
horses at this early season on this market.
The prices farm stock so far has no material
change from last week. market has been
heavily supplied with that class Of horses, but
an advancement in prices will soon be inaugur-
ated as prices too low to warrant a stay.
