HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The regular Wednesday mornin,
talk was given last week to the HigI
School pupils by Mr.. Stovall
Naturally in accordance with his oc
cupation, he spoke along literary
lines taking for his subject tn,
writing of the short story-its plot
construction and form were outlined
and skillfully dealt with in an inter
esting and instructive manner, thu.
giving much valuable informal. on tc
the student in composition work.
One of the interesting features OF
the Grants Pass High School this year
is the track team that has Just been
organized. 1t is composed of High
School students and will be directed
by Mr.. Harrison, principal of the
High School Active work has al
ready begun and arrangements are be
ing made for the securing of suitable
grounds for the purpose. The team
may probably join the Southern Ore
gon Association, and compete with
other High School teams in this Sec
tion Of the state.
Athletics have become permanent
addition to the High School corricu.
lum, and rightly. too. for anyone
can readily see that trained mind in
a neglected body is not the best stock
in trade for young person starting
ont In life. 1t must be admitted that
the Grants Pass High School has been
rather deficient along this line of
work, but this year has seen great
improvement. The Girls Basket Ball
Club has done considerable to arouse
an interest in things athletic, es-
pecially among the girls. The club
consists of II girls with Miss Bridge
as instructor. They practice three
times week and have made consider
able progress. Although no match
games have been played as yet, they
hope to do so before the season is
over.
The social given by the Basket Ball
Club and the Petta Gamma Society
on st. Patrick's Day was we'll attend
ed. The hall was decorated with
green and the colors of both clubs. A
program, containing some rather
novel performances, was rendered by
members. Light refreshments were
served. Rowdyism, which mars so
many socials, was noticeable by its
absence. Everyone seemed to have a
good time.

women will remain true to the man
who has won their love and will cling
to him no matter how he may neglect

Regarding Camp Sanitation.

Washington, d. c., Aug. by
direction of Acting Secretary oliver
the military secretary has written to
the commanding general of each of
the camps of instruction located in
different parts of the country, as fol-
lows: 'In view of the length of
time that the troops will be in camp
and the consequent possibility of the
outbreak of camp disease, such as
typhoid fever, diarrhoea, malaria
fever, etc, the attention of camp
commanders is called to the necessity
for strict enforcement of measures
to prevent such disease. The gen.
eral principles of camp sanitation
are set forth in the field service regu-
lations and other manuals, but the
particular rules to be applied will
vary with the local conditions, which
make plain the necessity of personal
study by each camp commander of
the problems in sanitation arising at
his camp, with a view to their best
solution. In malarious districts mo-
squito nets and head nets should be
used
The surgeon general states that
it would be very desirable If test
could be made in manoeuvres oi
regimental sanitation squads which
would be composed partly of hos
pital corps men and partly of civilian
employees (scavengers) hired by th'

the peerage that counts in England
now has an American girl as wife.
1t is reported that the king is 60
ing to stop racing and sell his racing
stable-all except some of his fam
Gus sires. which will be kept in the
stud, which is very profitable. The
king has lost tremendously on the
turf this season and is really tired
of racing. 1t will be a great loss
to the British turf if he does retire,
unless, as it is suggested, the prince
of Wales takes over his horses and
begins racing on his own account.
He is the first prince of Wales in a
good many years who has not had a
racing stable. The prince, however,
being a sailor, never cared very much
for horses. However, as the princess
generally rules the roost, perhaps
she will take the management of af-
fairs.
The prince of Wales has suffered
a great deal from his Indian trip.
1t did him no good for brandy, If
taken in too liberal doses in the hot
climates, is not health-giving fluid,
The prince has had very bad time
of it lately and has found himself
not only in need of rest, but of a
doctor. There is an old prophecy that
his father will outlive him. and II
all the reports are true, there is g
chance of that prophecy being full
filled.
