song, and when the time comes to
together sing the familiar strain. Al
time passes you will find that it is not
quite SO easy as at first to have a full
meeting of the old girls. Some will be
on the other side of the globe; some
will be engrossed in professional life
or in business; some will be married.
1t is hard for you to think of golden
haired Edith as a doctor, or brown
eyed Florence as a grave professor, or
merry Dorothy as a traveller who shall
write scientific books, Or laughing
Gertrude as a trained nurse. But you
girls are not going to stand still. After
you leave school you will find plenty
to do, and the powers you bring to
bear upon school work will find scope
in careers of some kind. / hope for
most Of you the pleasant career OF
true womanhood may keep you close
to the hearth and give you the joy OF
being hcme-makers. But though tie
class reunions may grow smaller they
will vary from year to year, and they
will always be very pleasant.
If it happen to be your duty to act
as president or secretary or toast
mistress do not worry about the way in
which you may or may not carry out
your role. Girls are apt to be much
too self-conscious. At the bottom OF
most of our endorsements ip life
and most Of our clumsiness lies the
defect of thinking how we look and
what other people may say about us.
If we can entirely overcome this
failing We shall be winners in the
game.
In order that responsibility may be
divided, it is a good plan for each
class to elect several girls who may
act as a committee and help one an
other to make the programme for any
coming occasion.
The art of having a social function
go off well is simple enough. 1t should
look spontaneous, but in reality there
should be very careful antecedent
preparation. When the house is built
you take down the scaffolding; YOU
do not want your scaffolding to be
seen, but you do want your house to
be built on good foundations. If there
is in the class a shy girl or one who
has had any great sorrow or trouble,
always take pains to bring out the me
and to give the other a specially good
time.

TYRANNY of the Tall Hat.

Kissed and booted home by the crowd.

and uncomfortable Leadgear, heavy
and fragile at once, has since succeed

The Art of Doing Nothing.

There is a side life for which no
preparation at all is made. No life is
or can be one of unremitting work:
sooner or later every one has a day
off, and in nine cases out of ten has
never been taught how to use it. In
the schools of our Utopia there will be
professors of the great art of doing
nothing, of sitting on a gate."-Ion-

When a citizen puts in a good word
for his town when he is away from
home, he never knows but what it
will eventually result in the invest

dollars. The good done by a single
optimistic word is hard to compute.
Always put in the good word, and the
results will show up sooner or later.

The strenuous efforts being made by
several Mississippi judges to have the
law strictly enforced in their judicial
districts should be just as strenuously
upheld by the people. A laxity of en-
forcement will eventually grow into a
general breaking OF the law. An ex-
ample of this can be had in the city of
Memphis, in our neighboring State OF
Tennessee. Enforce the law rigidly.
If the enactments are not just, have
them repealed, but by no mean allow
q laxity in the enforcement.

The Southern League is picking up

Americans have left here each year in
shape to go through the season at fast
clip and stay the full distance. As a
trainer of ballplayers Captain Collins
has no superior. He is with his men
every minute and keeps close watch on
their condition. He has a good idea of
practice work. and while not forcing the
men apparently the boys must follow
him, and that is all that is necessary to
put all in shape. never knew a lot
of ball players to talk less shop than
the Boston men. They have played to-
gether so long that signs or talk of new
plays are not necessary, and looking
for the weak spot in their rivals is
never mentioned outside of their secret
conclaves. The members of this great
team are absolutely temperate in all
their habits and never indulge in
wrangles with themselves or outsiders.
and what is better still, they never pose
as chapmions.-T. H. Murnane

San Francisco, Cal, March 21.--
Marvin Hart, who is train to fight
Jack johnson on the 2sth of this
month, is working hard at Sheehan's
out on Ocean beach. Not morning
passes that ne does not run eight
miles in his work. The big Kentuck-
ian seems to enjoy his work and the
more difficult the task the more he
smiles. Jimmy Britt, Jack McCormicS
and Dave Barry are his sparring part
ners and every afternoon he boxes
four rounds with each Of them
BIRTHS speed is great help to the
southerner, who needs plenty of fast
work. johnson, his opponent, being
rated as speedier than Jim Corbett
ever was Hart, however, is handi-
capped in his boxing practice. he
cannot turn loose for even a minute.
He is essentially an inhghter and
such a vicious one that even pneumatic
body protectors are of little services
to sparring partners. 1t is claimed
for him by Jack Mccormick that
Johnson's extreme cleverness VIII
avail him naught. for Hart viii fight
him till he jumps through the ropes.
Down at Milletts Jack johnson is
working hard and saying little.
Twelve miles are covered on the road
every morning and Denver Ed Martin
and Jim Haywards, the New York
heavyweight, go six rounds apiece
with him in the afternoon. The col
ored bower is already in excellent con-

KANSAS ORATOR IN TROUBLE.
Judge Head in the Clutches of Law in
Cincinnati.

-
Cincinnati.
Salina, March H-"Judge Head who
lived in this city from 1896 to 1901 has
succeeded in getting into very serious
trouble in Cincinnati where he is now
located. Dispatches dated from Cincin-
natl have the following to say of the
matter:
'sRichard L. Head. who says he was
four years in the judicial bench in Sa-
lima, Kan, was sent to the county jail
of 1000 bond. on warrant charging
him with illegally living with a woman
in a fat. The prosecuting witness IS
Carrie Head, the wife of the prisoner
Mrs. Head stated that she married
Richard l.. Head in Milwaukee, Octo-
Der 5. His wife says he did nothing 10
support her. The woman who gave her
name as Leonora Graham, was allowed
to depart"
He claimed to be a lawyer and was ed
ucated for that position but as far as
known he did no work while in this
city. The statement that he was on the
judicial bench in this city, is false.
Judge Head claimed, when he first
came to this city. that he was an orator
under direction of the Republican ma
tional committee.
His parents and brothers are respect
ed and wealthy people living in Latrobe,
Pa. One brother, bank CASHIER IS
worth nearly half a million dollars the
other brother, a lawyer, is also wealthy.
The three boys were given the best OF
education but Richard who was always
known as the black sheep of the family.
did not use his for the betterment OF
himself or any one else as far as known
1t is said that he has many creditors
in Salina.
In 1893 Judge Head organized the
fastest ball team Salina ever had. The
team did not hang together long, how
ever, as Head got all the money.
loft chicago
in 1901 where he said he was claim
agent for a railroad. Since that time
he has wandered about, finally landing
in Cincinnati and trouble.
1t is further said, by people who knew
him while here, that he has several
wives living.
