Christian to be a soldier and take up his
Weapons. offensive and defensive. he Is not

der difficulties. The new rooms
were not quite ready for the
classes, and the Labor Day cele
bration also had its effects, but
by the following day the rooms
were supplied with temporary
blackboards, to be used until
the new board arrives and pu !.
pills and teachers have adjusted
themselves to their new sur
roundings and all moving along
nicely, with fairly good atten
daEce. Monday of this week
brought many more to each OF
the rooms, until at present we
have a total enrolment of 1876,
with all grades well represent
ed, from the first to the tenth,
inclusive.
We feel that the school has
made a good start. and the pros.
poets for a good years work are
very encouraging.
1t is needless for us TO say
that the people of Wagner may
well be proud OF their new
school building, and can boast
of having the best school build
ing of any city of It's size and
age in the state. Not only does
i. express with strong emphasis
that its patrons are alive 20 the
interests OF education and the
welfare of their children, but It
also serves as a great incentive
TO pupils and teachers.
Following are the teachers
for the year: Primary, Miss
Nina Campbell; Intermediate,
Miss Margaret Donahne: gram
mar. Miss ELLA Foley; high
school, f. J. Farley.
At the close of each month we
win publish report OF punctnal
pupils for the month aud hope
the list will be long one. We
notice the children are good In
punctuality, and trust that they
and their parents will continue
to watch this, because it is one
Of the first requisites OF a good
school.
Those having children who
will be OF school age during this
school year, il they intend send
ing them TO school this year,
will saye the teacher and pupils
much unnecessary Inconvenience
and extra classes by starting
them now and sending them as
regularly as possible. This is
true OF all grades.
The books which we ordered
for the high school are now in
the hands Of the pupils. aud the
classes are well into their work.
We are thankful 10 the Wagner
Drug Go. for the promptness
with which they have filled our
order.
The course OF study we have
outlined for the ninth aud tenth
grades are as near the state re.
cairements as we can make
them under the circ um stances.
About the only thing lacking is:
We are obliged 20 make the raci
tation period few minutes
shorter than the required time
but with little extra work on
the part OF the pupil. we are
confident that those completing
the ninth and tenth grades here
will be accepted IN almost any
school with fnll credit for their
ninth aud tenth grade work.

made application for admittance TO the
school. OF course as the district
schools have not adjourned for the
year as yet, there are no teachers in
school, but large number are expect
ed by the college authorities in two
weeks. The courses offered during the
spring term are of such nature as to
particularly appeal to the teachers.
There was a small loss of students this
term from various causes but the total
enrolment will remain practically the
same as last term

PRESS CLUBS ORGANIZE
Newspaper Men of Three COL

EARLHAM TO ENTER FOLD.

The Indiana intercollegiate Press
association was organized yesterday
at the Denison hotel in Indianapolis.
Delegates from three Indiana colleges,
DePauw, Indiana and Purdue, were in
attendance, each school being repre-
scented by three men. Officers were
elected and a permanent organize
ton effected. A committee OF
constitution reported and a constitu.
ton was adopted.
College press clubs maintaining per
manent organizations are to be eli
gible to membership in the associa-
ton. New clubs may be admitted at
the annual meetings on the unanimous
concurrence of the several organiza-
tons. A press club is now being
formed at Wabash College and it is
probable that when this club gets into
operation it will be taken in the asso-
citation. Earlham College is consider
ing the establishment of a press club,
and with this and the addition of the
new club which is to be formed at But
Ter college next term. the intercollegi-
ate will be formidable and effective
organization.
