DECEMBER WEATHER.
Hicks Has Laid Out Some Frigid
Forecasts for this Month.

'lrl Hicks predicts much cold
weather for December. The first
storm period is central on the 4th
and 9Th when the temperature will
rise and storms of rain. turning to
snow and sleet will visit most parts
OF the country. The second period
will extend from the 10th to 18th and
large areas of tie country will be
visited by storms of winter rain. AS
these storms advance over the
country they will turn to general
snow storms and billiards. in north
ern sections and will be followed by
a severe cold wave.
The third storm disturbance will
be central on the 18th, 10Th and
18th. Sudden changes to quite
warm, often followed by winter
lightning and thunder, are quite
natural. Rains will quickly follow
and end in snow, the temperature
falling rapidly and a general cold
wave will sweep oyer the country.
On the 22nd occurs the 4th period
OF storms. This will prove one of
the worst storms of the month.
Rains in the west and south, snow
in the north, winding up with fierce
northernly gales and sweeping
cold wave. Another storm will
gather in the west on the 9th and
the probabilities are that clear, cold
weather will prevail at the end of
the month.

"A farmer has proposed new
game called improved ping pong"
1t is to be played on farm in the
fall of the year. The player gets
up at four o'clock in the morning,
milks the cows, feeds the hogs and
horses, eats breakfast, then bitches
his team to a wagon about the size
OF box car and starts for the corn
field. Here is where ''ping pong"
comes. Your grab big ear of corn
with the left hand and with the
right hand yank the shucKs off the
corn and throw the ear at the big
wagon. When said ear of corn
strikes the throw board it goes
ping and then it hits the bottom
OF the wagon and sounds ''pong"
making very interesting game at
about two and one half cents a
bushel.

Recently We we're asked to come to
Fork Union for consultation with the
authorities OF Fork Union Academy con-
teriiing our leaving. lit was stated that
there were grave charges against us.
Two Of our number returned and when!
asked Individually; to SEQ tho authorities
were refused on the. grounds that we
were a committee representing all who
had reslgncd, and thu III he cases OF all
were practically the, same. Before il we
knew anything further az dishonorable
dismissal Of the two was announced for
the following reason rs 4 IA 3gs
First I'll For leaving the I. Academy per-
neutrality-suspicious. written permission from
the head master. NJ al Y fst

consent OF head master. 81 St5i
Third, For not tending. classes day

us permission to come home. Il "
We also went visiting on Sundays; but
did not think we were disobeylng the

one mile limit is also customary for
lnon-commissioned officers to ylsl t, after
Ireceiving permission from a tcommlss on

We did not attend classes on the. day
before leaving because It was tho Begin

VIC did not intend ntcrinE the second

l5defend ourselves before tho authorities
I and the authorities demanded OF the Fork
Union people not to receive us into their
homes; even the hotel was barred against
US. We were not allowed to go on the
grounds Of the Academy. 81 nor 70 speak
10 theF;students, although We had been
misrepres6ntcd by one OF them .s gi
e When one Of tho trustee committee was
told that we had been nisrepresented and
asked In "a most gentleElanlys wa y II there
4 was any way that we could correct this
