caused some doubt in the minds

ern Star society, a few couples
INDUCING in dancing after the
feast.
Some women declared that
none Of the money should be
accepted; some said only that OF
the dancing couples should be
thrown out, while others sug-'
gested that all of these guests
be made to pay double for the
supper.
A committee probably will be
appointed to settle the matter.

The Goldman Addition Tract contains 10 acres, exclusive of the streets, cost ing $500 an acre, or s3000. There is difference of a little over two acres and S1770 in cost price-this is some thing for the taxpayer to think of This is enough to fence and beautify the grounds.
 The distance to the water mains are practically the same, about two blocks, (Ask the city marshall and we don't hardly think that Tempe will vote for a sewer and leave out Geld mans addition as a large part of the residents live in this addition
 The syndicate's tract of land is 700x470 feet; street on three sides, but none on the north. The Goldman addition tract is 400x1100, facing Mc- Allister street on the west, Nichols school street on the east, and a new street to be donated on the south, and street will be opened on tre north without cost to the Union high school when that tract is cut itao lots.
 And so we say, why not be fair- let both tracts come square before the qualified voters. Let the qualified voters determine by their vote where the Union high school shall be located We only ask a square deal. 'y (Signed) J. E. PRICE.

The advantages of manuAl training and domestic science is every where recognized by educators, and it is also agreed that such work should be begun in the 5th and 9th grades, where such is possible. Owing to the necessary expense of equlpping these departments and providing a special ist to conduct them, and also to the
