This is the season of the year for
county normal institutes, and along
with the summer girl and other insti-
tute attractions comes Il feeling of re-
greet. There is Il determination on the
part of the county superintendent, usu-
ally, to make the attendance large.
livery teacher, real and prospective is
expected TO be present or accounted for.
There is Il tendency to have II desire
that the teachers shall say the eNami-
nations We're severe. All of which is
beautifully progressive, but there is q
trampling upon the n-trodden.
An instance occurs to the writer of a
young lady attending the institute in

magnificent sum of So per month. 1t
Will take one month to pay institute
expenses and the other TO pay for board

hat and surplus OF receipts over eN-
ncnditureS are coming in is beyond the
writer's apprehension. That young
men are scarce among the teaching
fraternity and young ladies So often
teach Il few terms and quit is not in the

Not their Girl.

One of the incidents of the
militia encampment at Water
town was the rapid removal Of
one of the entertainments in
in connection with the street
carnival. 1t appears that among
the attractions of the carnival,
was one named "My Girl, where
a dance was given in which the
"ladies" of the outfit were not
as completely robed as they are
supposed to be in polite society,
the material of their apparel
possibly being so expensive that
it was found necessary to econo-
mize in the amount of cloth used,
and the garments were made
decollete on both ends, so that
they couldn't have been any
shorter if they had been cut with
a header. Whether the militia
boys made objection to the warm
weather style of dress, to the
character of the dance or to the
short change and other fakes
attempted will probably never
be fully known, but they came to
the conclusion that the thing
ought to be removed and they
gave the proprietor some Is
minutes to get his outfit away, a
trick which he performed in the
allotted time. Before leaving
Watertown the militia boys were
presented with a souvenir from
the w. G. T. u. of the city,
thanking "every soldier boy of
the 1902 encampment who by
word or deed placed himself on
record against certain evils
existing in the city during their
encampment.' People may
learn after a time that even an
encampment of soldiers prefer
something clean for their enter
tainment.
