The Art Exhibit

Our schools have claimed and
held the attention of the public for
a week past. 1t has been our priv
ilege to study fine copies of some
two hundred old masterpieces in
art, which our teachers had placed
in the High School building for
the benefit of their pupils and
patrons. All school children were
admitted free and others were
charged ten cents, which money
goes to purchase pictures for the
various rooms. Catalogues were
placed at the disposal of all who
desired them, containing descrip-
tons of the different pictures
together with brief biography of
the painter. We feel that this was
an opportunity which will come to
some of US but once and we would
have felt sorry indeed to have
missed it.
In connection with the Art Ex-
hibit in the High School was the
| School Exhibit in the different
F, grades. Each teacher was IN her
respective room showing and
explaining the work of any individ-
ual pupil under her charge and
anxious, worried or proud parents
as the case happened to be could
be seen on every side examining
the hand and school work of their
children.
During the last two or three
years, manual training has been
gradually introduced in the four
lower grades and the sewing, draw.
lug, mat basket-and rug weaving,
paper cutting, cooking, ETC., taken
in connection with the regular
school curriculum of work, made a
display far beyond our expecta-
tions. We feel safe in making the
assertion that the "critics" of this
school exhibit will be those who
ibid not give the teachers and pu.
pills chance to chow them their
work, rather than those who
attended. There were about two
hundred and fifty who took advan.
.age of their opportunity to see
Something Worth While during
the three days of the Exhibit. We
consider this fair attendance
considering the continuous bad
weather.

Ice! Ice! Ice!

There seems to be an impression
that owing to added cost securing
our crop and that there is shortage,
ice will be higher than formerly.
The ice we harvested cost us much
more than formerly and what we
took from Mr.. Cook cost still more.
With both we think we have enough
to supply our trade and will sell the
same as last year.

'IOWANS INSPECT

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF

COUNTY sulLpINe-THEY Ex.
PRESS GREAT SATISFACTION.

The fame of the beauty and con-
veniences of the Cass county court
house has not only reached out over
the two Dakotas, but has gone over
into Iowa and other states. People
have come to know that the courthouse
here was built honestly and WELL and
that the taxpayers actually got the
worth of their money, which seldom
happens anywhere else outside of
North Dakota when a public contract
is to be made and carried out.
This is why the county Commission
ers of Muscatine, Ia, landed in this
city yesterday in company with Archi-
tect Bell, of Minneapolis They came
here to make an inspection of our
courthouse and they left for home more
than pleased with what they saw. In
the party were w. H. Fishburn, chair
man; r. T. Shannon, "A. C.. Noble, M.
J. Shallabarger and c. j. Lang, and
A. f. Lawrence, the latter the county
auditor. They were shown all through
the courthouse and were told all about
the conveniences, etc, and as said
above they were more than pleased
with the general plan. The county of
Muscatine has issued bonds in the sum
of $135,000 for the erection of the
courthouse building, and $4,000 for
the erection of a county Jail, making
$150,000 in all, and the work is being
arranged for this summer. The plans
are being prepared and it is under
stood that they will in a measure fol-
low the lines of Cass county's temple
of justice.
