TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Mary MarsoD, 1900. spent Thurs
day afternoon with us. She declares
that in a school of thirty or forty pupils,
time does not hang heavy on ones
hands, but less than thirty is too few
for the animated teacher. Miss Marson
will attend either the Oshkosh or Mil
waukee normal school during the COM
ing year. She has found that greater
freedom lies in the upper atmosphere
if one will only make tie ascent.
Ink has now been furnished by the
Board, and copy books have been OBJ
tanned by the students. They are en-
deayoring by continuous effort to se-
cure legihle script in the time allot-
ted. To read. write and spell with a
fair degree of readiness and accuracy
is no small part of the years work.
We are pleased to note that Oscar
Binzer, who attended the Training
school some time ago, still remembers
as. He contemplates taking up the
study of book keeping during such
time as he is able to leave his business.
Mr.. Binzer possesses persistence, and
persistence will bring success.
Miss Jaeschke, 'O9, and Miss Mayo
were visitors at the school on Friday,
and favored us with the usual interest
ing account of life in the country.
Each had experienced many days of
inspiration and happiness in the regu-
lar routine of school work, and ac-
knowledged that great benefit had been
derived therefrom. Miss Nellie Nc
Hugh, 'O3, will supply for Miss Mayo
during two weeks absence of the
latter.
The students are all pleased to be
able to hear the great Boston educator.
Though amateurs in the educational
field they are still wise enough to real
ize that intellectual growth is greatly
furthered by hearing men of as broad
intellectual attainments as DR.. Winship
possesses. He never fails to charm his
audience with the easy and happy pre-
sentation of his profound thought
The sparring between members ii
west side schools and outside parties
eliminated Friday night in cowardly
assault upon a student The incident
was followed Saturday morning by the
arrest of the offender and several con-
federates. The final hearing of the case
was postponed until Saturday.
Mr.. j f. Wilson, the agent for Rand,
McNally 4 Co. Supt Lamont, District
Attorney Genrich and Mrs. Froemming
were visitors at the school last week.

WILL HAVE LIGHTS.

That Athens will soon have electric
lights is almost assured and it is prob
able that al electric lighting plant will
be established in the spring. For some
time the matter has been receiving
considerable attention, but no definite
action was taken. Every merchant and
resident of the village saw the necessity
of such an improvement and were
anxious for its installation. The result
of the agitation has eliminated in
something definite at last and the Riet-
brock company will probably put in the
plant if other parties do not care to
make the ventuTesc Mr. l.. A. Meyer, of
Milwaukee, was hereithis week looking
over the ground, and made estimates
on the probable cost of the plant
That the Rietbrock company can
furnish the light cheaper than private
parties, or even the village, can readily
be seen. The plant would be pu, in at
the mill where fuel, etc, is whithcut
great value and the necessary expenses
would be such that the lights would be
much cheaper than the lighting system
now IN vogue Athens Record

SUCCESS OF GEO A. FUTILE.

Many Riponites and in particular
those who recall the college days OF
1878 will learn with pleasure of sthe
success of Mr. George A. Tuttle OF
Wausau, now a government employe
at Washington.
Mr.. Tuttle, who was student at
Ripon College in 1SS7-S took the civil
service examination at Wausau and
was appointed to position in the gov
ernment printing office at Washington
in 1899. Prior to his appointment he
was employed in the newspaper office
of Eugene Thayer, at Wausau. Since
his appointment at Washington he has
risen from the ranks of the myriad of
printers employed in Uncle SAINTS
shop" until today he is in charge of a
section of the night force with the ac-
companying responsibi bilities as well as
handsome salarly attached thereto.
Mr.. Tuttle receives a salary of about
81, 800 per annum and he is classed
among those reliable men at the great
printing office known as ''trustys. !"
His success is due wholly to his own
efforts and reliability and the old ac-
quaintances in Ripon will undoubtedly
feel satisfaction in this success

principals in fight that had taken
place the previous evening on the road
near the Agricultural school, Walter
Franzen, son of Chris. Franzen of the
town of Day, appeared as the com
planning witness, he having received a
severe beating at the hands of several
boys of his own age while going home
from school. Three of his assailants,
Don Mccormick and Arthur and Oscar
Sievert were brought into court, but as
it appeared that there were others
mixed up in the affair, an adjournment
was taken to Saturday, Jan. oath, that
the others mightalso be made to appear
From the accounts, young Mccormick
was the principal assailant He has
had consider; Die practice with boxing
gloves, as be acknowledged, and is
youthful pugilist and he took consider
able delight in pummeling young Fran
zen. Ffanzen attends the agricultural
school and 1t appears that number Of
the students of that Institution have bad
trouble of late with the students of the
city schools, especially with those of
the Lincoln, which is situated near by.

ing strenuous efforts to break up this
feud, and will make examples of some
of the rowdies. When the case is called
