The teachers will spend the holidays
in various ways. Mr.. Wiedmann and
family will leave on Monday to attend a
reunion of the Wiedmanns at Greeley,
returning to Denver in time to attend
the State Teachers Association. Miss
Nelson will enjoy visit to her home at
Monte Vista; Miss Peters will visit in
Denver and in Greeley and will attend
the association; Miss Mcleod will visit
in Goldield and Cripple Creek and will
spend the last week of her vacation at
the state meeting. Mr.. Green will be
be at home in Denver; Mr.. Momyer will
spend short time at his home in Great
Bend, Kansas, returning in time for the
state teachers meeting. Other teach
ers will spend the holidays in Central
City, except that practically all of the
teaching force of the city schools will
avail themselves of the opportunity of
attending the association at Denver.
Nearly eight hundred books have been
checked out of the library since the be-
ginning of school. Considering that
practically none were checked out dur
ing the first month, we feel that this is
very creditable record. Miss Mary
Floyd is doing efficient work as libra
rian with library hours each school day
from l: 10 to 1:30 and from $3.50 to 4.
Theodore Steneck fell from a window
in the Clark building on Tuesday after
noon and sustained severe cut on the
head. DR.. Fraser found it necessary to
take several stitches to close the wound.
The sewing classes held sale of their
sewing work at the Hale building on
Tuesday afternoon which was very sue
cessful. They will hold an auction sale
in the reception room in the Hale build
ing Friday afternoon Immediately after
the Christmas exercises. The proceeds
of these sales are given toward furnish
ing the reception room.
Prof. E. House, state high school Wis
itor for the State Agricultural College,
visited the high school on Wednesday
morning and addressed the students at
assembly. Prof. House spoke very high
ly of the work of the high school. He
said that he had been all over the state
in his visits paying particular attention
to the work in science and mathematics
and found the work in these lines in the
Central City high school to be the best
he has seen anywhere. This judgment
from man whose business it is to visi,
and judge high schools is very crafty,
ing and will do much to give our schools
the reputation over the state that they
deserve.
