The Lake Mills Leader says that
all schools in the county were closed
on account of the teachers institute last
Friday. We fail to remember such an
occurrence, Possibly Lake Mills has
removed it's chools 10 a different
county.
We presume that the division Of the
Freshman class is based on compari-
son namely, Fresh. Fresher, Freshest.

A large audience assembled last
Thursday evening to hear the lecture
on Charlemagno, The use of Concor.
Dia Opera house had been generously
donated, as the capacity of the Assem-
bly, room was altogether insufficient.
The hall however was poorly heated 10
the discomfort of many. and the bowl
ing was also the source of some an
noyance. The next lecture takes place
Thursday Nov. 10. the subject being
Lorenzo a; Medici.
