he found the prices higher or the
goods Of poorer quality than those

While there may be merchants
in the county who still cling to the
former frontier prices of pioneer
days, there are now many wide q

order houses on their own ground,
and that with better class of goods
the latter can secure. a
The secret of the success of the
mail order business is extensive

School Notes

I0e lake seems to be the attraC-
ton now days. That's the reason
why we hear so often in the school
room II don't know" When asked
''are you going skating tonight, "
q troubled look comes over the
usually wise student and he meekly
replies again that The does not
know. This seems to be most
especially indicated II the ranks st
the Freshman class, who are often
unable to study with the thought of
skating in the evening on their
brain. But when they become as
old and experienced as their older
brothers, they will be able to laugh
off that sleepy feeling that comes
over them about 9 o clock q. m.
The high school listened to an
able talk last Thursday morning by
E. R. Pope of Minneapolis on
''Training for Greatness" There is
good deal of sentiment abroad con-
cerning the organization of q ''No-
body" class. There: is certainly
plenty of material at hand, and if
it should be perfected, they would
undoubtedly let the rest of the
school know who they are.
Look in another column for the
description of our proposed new
building. This is what we need,
and we ask the cooperation of
everybody interested in the school,
to help secure it for us.

markable scenes were witnessed
around the criminal court building.
