We were glad to see a number Of
visitors at the high school last Friday
afternoon. We were also glad to hear
the many words of commentator for
this our first serious work along the
lines of debate and parliamentary prac-
tice. The judges, Mrs. Chase and
Messrs. Fielder and Knight, decided
that the boys proved Lady Macbeth
guilty in spite of the heroic efforts of
the girls to clear their client of the
terrible crime. The arguments on both
sides were well thought out, cleverly
arranged, and given in such manner as
to carry conviction. The entire pro
gram was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

not very serious. Criticisms regarding
proper protection against fire are many.

ing an advance OF over point. Lake

range of points with the close show
ing slight gain for the day. North
Butte covered n narrow range and

affect it. The New York market was
up fractionally.
Trading on the curb was active.
Keweenaw was a feature selling as

were plentiful I'm this region but 1t has
been several decades since any of the
animals have been killed. 1t has been
only within the past few years that
there have been fresh indications OF
the presence of the big game. Now
il is noted that moose tracks nave
been found at various points on the
Lake Superior shore in the country to
the east of Munising, and hunters
bring word that moose have been seen
by woodsmen at frequent intervals. 1t
is the opinion that these animals have
migrated from Canada, crossing to the
American side by way of the st.
Marys river. Confirmatory of this
supposition is the fact that the most
plentiful moose signs are found In
Chippewa county. Moose are pro-
tected by law In Michigan, and they
doubtless will be until their numbers
have attained large proportions. That
the animals thrive in the upper PEN
insula ample evidence is found at the
Cleveland Cliffs Iron company's game
preserve on Grand island. The small
herd confined there and which were
procured from Canada some years ago,
are in the best of condition.

Pretty Homemade Curtains.

Pale Green hopsacking, burlay or
coarse meshed linens make n very
pretty and heavy curtain for the Ii
brary. They are to be worked with
a broad border in a cross stitch de-
sign. The borders may be placed
either down the curtain and across
the bottom, or a narrower one may
be used down each side across. or the
vertical stripes can be omitted and n
deeper border substituted, applied two
inches and a half above the edge.
Handsome curtains for bedrooms
can be made from unbleached muslin
with floral borders of cretonne.
These are carefully basted to the ma
teral and the edges of flowers cut out
and buttonholed. These are mucn
newer than the stitched crctonne
bands. If the borders are put IT
the edge Of the curtains without q
margin OF muslin and the outline
made irregular the effect of the hand
embroidered curtain can be obtained.
