Academy Notes

The Academy has now been open
two weeks and is well settled down
to good solid work in all of its many
departments. There is good en-
rollment at present which will be
greatly increased as the work upon
the farms is finished. The students
in attendance are all good earnest
workers, who are fully impressed
with the Importance of the work in
hand, and are even this early max
ing rapid progress in their studies
All indications point to very sue
cessful years work, and that the
school will continue the good work
of the past, making such improve
ments from time to time as may be
necessary to keep up with the best
schools of the day.
The Manual Training depart
ment. under the charge of Prof. l..
A. Nelson, proves to be very pop
ular with the students, many of
whom show natural ability to
learn to do wood work. We feel
that this will be of inestimable
value to our young men in whatever
walk of life they may choose to 90,
and no doubt will develop some
tirst-class carpenters among them.
Miss Greenwood has large class
organized in vocal music, and also
quite number of students taking
private lessons. She has few
hours open yet, but which will no
doubt all be taken as the students
enroll later.
Prof. H. M. Cottrell, of the Colo
RADIO Agricultural College at Fort
Collins, called upon us Tuesday,
the Both, to arrange for short
course in agriculture in connection
with the school, to be held about
the first week in December. Some
of the best men in their respective
lines will be here to instruct our
young men and young ladies in
some of the elements of the science
of agriculture. Also there will be
some of the best lecturers of the
country to edify the people the sew
eral evenings of the course. We
trust that the not very distant fu-
ture will see a fine agricultural
course added to our school.
The Science department under
Prof. A. p. Anderson, is making
fine progress, especially in the
study of botany. Quite IA lot of
apparatus has been ordered for the
labratory, and the students are
showing a great deal of interest
and enthusiasm in their studies in
this department.
All the teachers and nearly all
the students attended farewell

enjoyable time was had by all.
The faculty gave social to the
students last week. After short
program was rendered, games and
dancing became the order of the
evening, later the students were in
vited to rooms ) and 6 where a
watermelon spread WAS awaiting
them, and with huge slices of
the fruit that made Rocky Ford
famous, all feelings of being
strangers to each other disappeared
and the party broke up with all
feeling much better acquainted and
more fully determined than ever to
work unitedly for all the good we
can possibly accomplish.
Soon sweet notes of music will
be waited to our ears from the
Academy orchestra. A meeting
was called on Wednesday evening
to perfect the organization.
President Christensen visited us
all day Wednesday, the 23rd. We
enjoyed the visit very much and
think he did, too, until he reached
the Domestic Science department,
where the young ladies were calling
for water. But as usual President
Christensen was equal to the emer-
gency and ordered pump put in
at once, and left the young ladies,
as well as their teacher, Miss John
son. wreathed in smiles.
Mr.. Marshall Biddinger has been
chosen manager of the various
sports this year and has entered up
on the duties of his office with ii
zeal that guarantees success in our
athletics for the ensuing year. A
little practice has begun in base
ball, but at present much interest
centers around basket ball A town
team defeated a picked up Academy
team Monday, by score of ) to 3.
But wait A tennis court will
soon be laid off, a track for races,
etc, also, and our students will
have an opportunity to develop
sound bodies as well as sound
minds Neighboring schools will
no doubt take notice and be prepar-
ing to meet and defeat us in
athletics, bat we are like Teddy
Roosevelt will be after he finishes
his term, looking for big game"
The student body organized
shortly after the opening of school
and elected the following officers:
President, Wallace Funk; Vice
President, Celia Christensen; Sec
retary, Martha Smith; and for
pianist, Mabelle Crowther. All are
well qualified for their respective
positions and well worthy to hold
up the standard of our beloved. in
stitution whenever and wherever
occasion may demand.
The officers of the student body
have made list of places where
room or board may be obtained at
very reasonable rates, and left the
same with President G. Fl. Ander-
son, so that students desiring ac-
commodations may receive aid in
securing the same by consulting
Pres. Anderson.
