THE BABY CORPS.

A call meeting Of the w. R. c..
Daniel McCook Corps, No. 10, was
held at the Sprague hall yesterday
afternoon. Nearly all of the mem
bers were present. The Daniel Nc
Cook Corp, No. Is, has the honor of
being the baby corps of Washington.
Although not a year old until the
goth of October, it has Ga members.
The desire of the corps to have an en-
rollment of one hundred on its birth
day is slowly being reafizeG, as 2l
new members were admitted yester-
day. Mrs. Jennie B. Stoves, assistant
department inspector of Leavenworth,
was present. All members were found
to be in good standing. Mrs. Stoves
was we'll pleased with the afternoon 5
work. Considering the age of the
corps and with no drilling, the work
was put on in an excellent manner.
In closing, Mrs. Stoves said: ct gives
me great pleasure to witness the will
ing efforts and the growth of this
corps, and may it double it's member
ship in a years time" Mrs. Stoves
leaves this afternoon for Cashmere,
where she will inspect the corps at
that place.

Beacon Hill Claims to Have All
Other Districts left "In The
Shade" In Regularity of Attend
ance and Percentage Passing the
County and State Examinations.
Challenges Other Districts.

Beacon Hill claims to be the best
school district in the county. 1t is
pretty broad and sweeping statement,
but the patrons and pupils back their
statements with figures that would
put a statistician all to shame.
There are now in the school ninety
pupils, with three rooms. AS soon as
the apple crop is picked the number
will reach 100.
Concerning the record claimed by
Sunnyslope, this district secured the
highest average in the state exami-
nation last year.
For the highest percentage of at
tendance it also holds the ribbon.
Besides this there is an agricultu-
raj and horticultural class, the only
one in the county.
This is also the only county district
which entered the declamatory con-
test recently held in this county.
Added to all these is the hustling
literary society connected with the
school. This society on Friday de-

Clay and Lloyd Peters sustained the
Affirmative and Clyde Gockley and

The members of the school board
are: Mike Koran, Harry Shotwell and

of the county.
There has never been district
