teachers and students.
The teaching force is quite
decimated with Mrs. Foster and Miss
Lee both gone. Mrs. Foster is ex-
pected back next week, as her mother
is much better.
A good class in stenography is
making fair progress under Prof.
Owen.
The executive committee will soon
decide upon plans for the new build
ing-to be called Ranney Hall-and
expect to let the contract just as
soon as the weather will permit the
builders to begin work.
Among the new students that have
entered the school this term are
Messrs. Edgar Smith of Pocatello,
Ruston Shaw of Plymouth, and Mr..
Feelan of Salt Lake City.
Owing to the generosity of Mr..
E. T. Merritt of the Board of Di-
rectors, who gave the Academy a
horse, they are now able to drive 8
four horse team to the bus.
Mr.. Harold Blalock has gone tc
