the faculty members of Dakota Wes-

an unlucky party. AS the guests
arrived they we're received inform
ally at the door by the hosts and hos
tesses and.as they entered, they pass
ed under a.ladder ana were required
to--whistle, presumably to drive away
all omens Of i'll luck. This caused a
great deal Of amusement, especially
on the parJ of the ladies as sone
were not Very adept wbisllers.
Many different arrangements and
methods, all of an entertaining char
acter. were tried through the evening
to--dlive away the evil spirits and to
prevent the calamity OF bad luck
coming upon tie guests of the even
ing. But the greatest amusement Of
the evening cane when each one
was required to relate the most UNI
lucky experience in their lives.

tily decorated in green and white,

nature. Only IL we're allowed in the

10 was drawn by lot. when it came
time for the guests to depart they
were REQUIRED to leave through the

rimen, and some %uEeaslness was caus-
ed, lor it is unlucky to 60 out the
back door. But hope was regained,
when they found they were passing
under a guided horseshoe and all
left, thanking Mr.. and Mrs. Wilt and

Northwestern University. while pur-
suing the course in music. She

f. A. Bangs, and for three years took
special work in voice, tone product

the general rule that the church ii
nances are about that sum in arrears
at the close of the year. There is
something strange about human ma
ture, but an eloquent talker can take
a lot of people huddled together into
a union mass meeting and induce
them to give him the money they owe
to their butcher, grocer or newspaper,
and they usully repent it in a few
days much more sincerely than they
did their sins when they got on the
mournersi bench. Some folks believe
that %reyivaiists are a great help 10
the church, and perhaps they are,
but there is no reason why they
should be paid, at the most, more
than twice as much us the local min
lister.

FOR CITY SuPERlNTENDENTS
State superintendent Ramer ISSUED
a Call for Them to Assemble
in Mitchell.

The city superintendent of schools
OF the state and village principals,
meet in Mitchell in the city hall
auditorium on Thursday, Nov. 2, as
the result of a call by State Supcrin-
tendent Ramer. The assembly will
be called to order at 80. and the
meeting may extend over another
day.
The primary object OF this confer
ence will be to revise the state course
OF study for.rural schools, in the hope
that it may be done so as to meet the
requirements of the grade Of the city
schools. 1t may be we'll to state at
this time, that the committee on re-
vision passed a resolution at it's
meeting in Mitchell, to provide for
Y sections OF work, to be divided in
to eight grades of nine sections each.
This "a done in order to meet the
needs Of the grades in cities and viii
lagos. 1t is noticed that the COM
mittee proposes to dispose Of the
word month and also of the word
~"year." This, we hope, will to a
certain extent eliminate the quest
ion Of time in the country. 1t is
quite probable that the rural schools
will need to take nine or ten years in
which to cover these q sections Of
work. OF course this is simply adj
visory, and will remain so until ad-
opted by the State Educational Asso-
citation next December.
The secondary object Of this confer
ence will be TO consider the revision
of the Canton high school course.
There is a general impression. in
many parts OF the state, that this
high school course is now ready for
revision, and it is altogether possible
that the conference can agree on an
improved curse.

ORDAINED AS A DEACON.
Rev. E. w. Greene Ordained as Dea
con in st. Mary::s Episcopal
Church Sunday.
Church Sunda,

After serving St. Mary's Episcopal
church in a trial capacity for the
past nine months, Rev. E. w. Greene
was ordained as a deacon of that
body, Sunday morning. the service
being:conducteu by Bishop Hare and
Rev. John III Babcock, of Sioux Falls.
The service was an impressive one
and was attended fy a large congrega-
tion. The presentation OF the candi-
date was conducted by Rev. Babcock.
who was a former rector Of the local
church. Bishop Hare delivered the
sermon of the morning, in which he
explained the relations that should
exist between the pastor and the
people. Following the Communion
service the ordination service Of Mr..
Greene was given by the bishop as
outlined in the prayer book. The
otfertory solo vas sung by Mrs. w. M.
Herbert, who rendered Ito the
Angels" in excellent voice.
Rev. Mr.. Greene has long been in
the ministry, having served ds pastor
in the Dutch Reformed church for
twenty years, and Civ ng up a large
church in Brooklyn, N. y, when he
came west to enter the work of the
Episcopal church. The sermons that
he has presented in Mitchell shows a
careful thought and study on his par.
and he is giving good satisfaction to
the supporters and members of the
church. In the evening he had
charge of the regular service and was
assisted by Rev. Mr.. Babcock. The
sermon that he gave was an urgent
appeal for the church to engage in
harder work for its upbuilding, and
hoped that as the day was a new era
in his life that it would also be one
in that Of the church. Mi. Virgil
Boyles sang a bass solo in the even
ing, entitled "Calvary.'' which is
admirably suited to his voice and he
gave it a fine presentation. The
vested choir sang very acceptably at
both the morning and evening ser
vice and added much to the effective
ness Of the programs for the. day.
