High School Notes.

There was general rejoicing
among the high school students
when it was announced that school
would close Dec. l8. and not open
again until Jan. 4, 1904. Sixteen
days vacation I tell you, that is
what we like.
Certain members of the chemistry
class seem to be having gay old
time with their lessons. I wonder
II chemistry really is as bad as
those people try to make us believe.
In Mr.. Angus spelling division
the students are given a failure
tree' gratis, for nothing if they miss
three or more words the same dav.
Look out for your report cards next
month, fellows.
The hobo party given by the jun
lors last Saturday evening is re-.
ported a decided success, Out of
the many people wearing stunning
costumes, Pauline Day and George
Wilson were awarded prizes for
wearing the best 'duds." Refresh
ments were served, program was
rendered and hobo orchestra fa-
vored the guests with a few selec-
tions. We understand that the sum
of twelve dollars was handed over.
from the ticket receipts, to the
keeper of the piano fund.
A mock trial will be the item of
interest on next Fridays program.
Visitors are always welcome to
come and listen to our programs.
1t was thought necessary by GER
tain people last week, to request
the seniors not to interfere with the
preparations for the hobo social.
Ot course it was almost an insult to
the good taste and sense of the SEN
ior class to ask them not to do a
thing which they decided not to do
long before the well-meaning advis-
er knew that a hobo social was CON-
ing. We would like to impress the
fact upon the mind of that same ad-
wiser that we have nothing at all for
which we are trying to get even
with the juniors. In fact, the very,
opposite is the truth, for every
thing that the juniors have tried to
do, for the last couple of months,
has been to get even with US for
tearing down their flag.

To Christmas Shoppers.

The columns of the SHEAF this
week are given over largely to the
merchants of Warren for the max
ing of their holiday announcements,
and this matter is fully as impor-
tant as anything else we might pub
lish. At no time of the year are
the advertisements more eagerly
scanned by both young and old than
"just before Christmas. Every
body then wants to do little shop
ping. After perusing the advertis-
ments appearing in the SHEAF this
week, no one need remain in doubt
as to what to buy for Christmas
presents or where to buy them.
The shelves and counters of all the
stores in Warren are loaded down
with holiday goods of all descrip-
tions. Santa Claus has estab-
lished head quarters in each one of
them. This year especially is there
an abundance of toys and things
that will delight the hearts of the
children. For more than week al
ready the stores have been thronged
with buyers of holiday goods. The
people of the county recognize that
Warren is the place where they can
do their trading for the holidays to
the best advantage.

a number of questions on building
silos to A. W. Trow, who is the
best authority on this matter of any
man in the state. The following
are the questions and answers:

have to justify building silo? >-

Does the frost seriously injure
fodder corn for making silage?
A. Not seriously, in fact there is
no better place for frosted corn than
in the silo.
How many farmers can use the

silos?
A. Four or five can get along
nicely; ten of us in the south part of
the state used the same cutter dur

from Gustavus Adolphus Col
1apa

le&e.
r The fall term of the Gustavus
Adolphus College is now at it's
close.
All recitations ceased last Satur
day, and this week is devoted to the
examinations, all of which will be
finished by Friday noon, when the
christmas vacation begins.
Good work has been done dur
ing the term in both class and prac-
tical training obtained in the numer-
Gus socities. Literary society work
is an important feature of this in
stitution, and is certainly of great
value in giving the student
chance for the practical appliance
OF the knowledge and theories
which he obtains from his studies,
and also gives him confidence in
himself, which is so necessary in the
duties of active life. The different
societies of the institution are as
follows: The Philomathian sociey,
the Literary Circle, the Missionary
society, and Die Deutche Gesell-
schaft OF the Collegiate department,
the Lincoln Debating society of the
Academy and the Commercial Club
OF the School of Commerce.
During the fall term two orator
ical contests have been held, the
first in English. in which the win
ners were P. J. Youngdahl, first
prize, and G. A. Gunderson, second
prize. The Swedish oratorical
contest took place Dec. 4. Six
contestants took part in this, and
Amandus Johnson received first
prize, c. G.. Benson, second prize.
G. G. Benson is former resident
of Marshall county, where he has
also taught school. He showed his
superiority as writer as he receiv-
ed the highest marks in thought
and composition, but hoarseness
hampered him in delivery.
A reading contest was also held
by the students in the Academy de-
partment Nov. 3d. This was some
thing that had not been attempted
before. Three contestants from
each class partook, and Louise Will
fred of the third class, and Carl
Leaf of the first class, carried off
first and second honors.
Professors F. Lindholm, violinist,
and S. K. Hall, pianist, of the
School of Music, gave recital Dec.
7th., assisted by Miss Hurdohl, of
Minneapolis. The entertainment
was of a high order and very enjoy
able, each participant in the pro-
gram displaying great efficiency in
his or her sphere.
Winter in this section has been
very mild up to the present. Here
has been no snow until the last two
weeks, when we had light snow
fall, but as yet it is not enough for
sleighing.
