Be Careful Boys!

School will be out this week
for the Christmas holidays and
the boys will be, and it is right
too, for having all the fun they
can possibly crowd into the
short vacation. No doubt d
good part of this sport will be
with fireworks. Nothing wrong
in this either, but it is we'll to
have care lest they burn the
town. Everything is very dry
now and with the winds loose at
both ends such a disaster as this
could happen and the result
then would be about as bad for
the boys as anybody else.
SO be careful boys and when
you celebrate with these toy
powder magazines steer clear of
buildings and even then It's we'll
to see that all the sparks are
out.
The News likes boys, good
true boys, boys full of nerve and
buDbling oyer with life and fun;
such boys make the men of at
fairs who control the destiny of
this grand world of ours, and in
the days to come Canyon City
will beyond doubt furnish her
share of them.

St HOOL NOTES..

The Public School will close
Friday, Dec. 3, for a vacation OF
one week. This may not be long
enough to suit some, but long va
cations are detrimental to school
work, In fact, Start vacations do
not add anything to the benefit of a
school. We will have to call winter
vacations a necessary evil.
The 3 Of Dec, closes three and
one half months of school. Com
paratively speaking, the work has
been quite satisfactory. The new
school building has aided greatly to
the efficiency of our work, How
ever hard and cold the north wind
may blow, it is "Summer Time" in
the several rooms.
The teachers and pupils have
been very careful that no marking
or defacing school property occurs
1 don't think any writing or mark
ing can be found on the school
property that has been done since
school commenced. We trust this
kind of a record may continue.
Anyone that would Intentionally
mark, cut, break or detace school
property should be dealt with
seriously. In fact, think eXpul-
sion is the best remedy.

Gapes.

Gapes is cause by a worm known
as Syngamus Treachealis. 1t does not
make it's appearance until the wealth
er has become warm and settled 1t
seems strange that some sections are
not troubled with this germ at all,
while others are never free from its
ravages. This worm is about One-half
inch long, and upon close inspection
we find male and female permanent
ly united for breeding purposes. The
color is mostly deep red caused by
feeding upon the blood of fowls.
Upon it's first outbreak remove the
chicks to a new location which has
been plOWed up and thin coating OF
Stacked lime spread upon the surface.
Prompt measures must be taken to
combat the germ, as in less than a
week it will fill the windpipe. The
best and easiest remedy is to place
the chicks in a box and tack a cloth
or sack over it. Then sift air-slacked
lime through the cloth so as to Gre
ate a dust in the box. This dust forces
the chicks to cough, thereby dislOdg-
ing the germ which is then easily
expelled.
