SCHOOL GAINS
|. PUPILS STEADILY
Nine New Ones Entered This Week
New Building to Be Completed
In About Two Weeks.

School is now fairly under way
again after the Christmas holidays,
pupils having quite recovered from
the excitement of their two weeks
mid-year vacation and teachers hay
ing settled down to their duties once
more. Good progress is being made
in all the classes, according to report
of Principal p. c. Cullen.
About 10 pupils are now attend
ing school in all the branches and
as a few new ones are coming in
daily IL is EXPECTED that the roll will
be largely enhanced before the be-
ginning of the second semester. Nine
new pupils have entered this week.
In a little more than two weeks it
is expected that the three rooms in
the second story of the new school
building will be ready for use. The
upper grades from the Sixth to the
Eleventh will move into these when
all is ready for them. The other
grades will be moved into the build
ing as it is prepared for their recep-
ton. The last of needed materials
for the completion of the building
have arrived and a force of men is
being worked to the end of rushing
the structure to completion.
AT present there are no changes in
the course of study TO be made but
it is expected that little later, prob
ably about the middle of the term, the
Eighth grade will complete the
course now in hand in arithmetic and
United States history. They will
then take M in place of these courses

OVER LOSS
BOLD THEFT OF PET HOG ARGUS
rs YOUNG MAN-STOLEN FROM
COSY CORNER BEHIND HITCH
EN- STOVE.

Lost, most probably stolen, is q
pig which has been the chief care OF
the life of Bob Nye for several days
The most narrowing part is that Nye
after hearing threats of dire deeds
which would ieopardize the welfare
OF his pet, had tied the animal behind
the kitchen stove in his home. re-
moving IL from the pen and, as he
believed, from all danger. So bold
theft Is hardly edualled in the his
tory of local police circles.
Each day since Robert took the
strenuous tug of war with his pig
lets which gained him the official
title of chief swineherd of Ely, he has
solicitously attended to the welfare
of the animal and giving him nutri-
tious food in order that weight might
be the chief factor in his raising.
a few days ago friend suggested
to him that oatmeal fed the animal
from a spoon. was the only proper
diet for really ambitious pig. as
this seemed to be- and acting upon
the suggestion he started in on the
operation few mornings since.
Possibly the pig did not unders tand
that Bob was trying to benefit him,
or maybe Nye hurt him in forcing the
enticing morsels down his throat, for
his yells and plaintive squeals at
traeted the whole neighborhood to
the .eene. At this time threats were
made which led to the extra precau-
ton of bringing in the hoglet at
night.
Yesterday morning Nye arose as
a I. IL q
duty of the day. feeding the pig. He
somehow felt that something was
missing. He thought for a moment
and discovered that it was the ia
miliar grunt of the affectionate little
pet he had adopted. With the spoon
and package of oatmeal still in his
hand. he advanced cautiously around
the stove. Nothing doing. and with
a wall Nye dropped the cereal to ex-
anime the rope which had securely
held the animal when he retired the
night before. II had been united, and
although he searched over the whole
place, there was no sign of his pig
ship to be found.
Starting at once for the court
house without either coat or hat. Nye
gave a general alarm TO the officers
and the search has been on ever
since. All to no avail. 1t is probable
that the Pinkerton force will now be
called in to locate fhe missing hog.
While Nye's grief passes descrip-
ton. the anger and chagrin of the
Strollers who were later to feast on
the animal. can better be pictured
than described. Hungry looks have
taken the place of the Snug express
sion adjoining their faces since the
news that a big feed" was in store
for them spread. and their despera-
ton bodies i'll for the offender who so
valiantly purloined their feast on
foot. as 1t were.
A reward of large proportions will
be offered, it is understood. in case
the animal is not located today by
the anguished owner.

Altering Sleeves.

AS every one knows, the sleeves of
a gown or waist will make it either old
fashioned or up to date. and therefore
many waists or dresses which have
almost been discarded as old fash
Toned can be made to look smart and
quite new simply by altering the
sleeves.
Sleeves are being made somewhat
smaller than they have been for some
seasons. and therefore the old full
sleeves lend themselves to remodeling
readily. The sleeves may be made
after an entirely new pattern. or the
old sleeve may be cut into strips
measuring from two to four inches in
length, the strips then being Joined in
one long piece. One edge of the en-
tire strip is then hemmed and trimmed
with lace and the other edge may be
hemmed and gathered.
A sung-fitting foundation sleeve may
be made and the rufies sewed, with
the top Of one just hidden by the lace
on the one above it. The seam Of the
foundation sleeve then may be sewed
up and finished with a cuff. Dainty
sleeves for fluffy summer garmentt
can be made in this way.
