The Oskaloosa herald., 1909-10-07


of about two hundred and fifty stu
dents,o only sixty-four have signed their
name to the membership roll OF the
Athletic Association. There is some
thing wrong some place and an adj
justment should be made. II you are
not member of this organization you
should see about it at once. Remem-
Der that the girls are cordially invit
ed.
The members of the Kratistos and
Beltistos societies have been divided
between the Aristos and Lostos socie-
ties. There will be only two organi-
cations this year. The membership
of the societies will be somewhat diff
ferent from that of last year. New
members will be received by two
| thirds vote of the members. The
membership committee will present
the names of all desirable students.
Claire Arnold left Tuesday evening
for Lockport, H., where he will enter
the county High school, which is be-
ing superintended by Prof. II. W.Hurt,
formerly of this city. Claire has been
member of the school and the foot
ball team for about four years and he
will be greatly missed. Mr.. Arnold
played right half in the football game
with New Sharon last Saturday. His
position will be Glled by Ruby or Pat
terson.
The members of the Lostos Literary
society of the school met in Miss Nc
Cune's room Friday evening and elect
ed officers. Twelve members of last
years society were present. The Of
ficers chosen were: Roy Wymore, pres
ident; Paul Phelps, vice president;
Maxwell OBrien, secretary;a nd Thos,
Watson, sergeant at arms. The fol
lowing were placed on committees:
Program. Paul Phelps, chairman, Ethel
Terrell and Sidney Hirsch; Member
ship Robert Miner, chairman, Addie
Wing and Willard Fitzpatrick.
There is some talk at the school
of organizing a girls basket ball team.
A number of the girls are interested
but not enough to take the matter in
hand. Ottumwa, Washington and AL
|tbia High schools have such an organ
ization and there is no reason why Os-
kaloosa cannot have one. 1t is posi-
BILE that the girls could use the floor at
the Penn Gymnasium for practice.
The girls of the school are among the
best boosters we have and they ceg.
tainly could make it pay financially af-
ter it was well started. Better try.
The first meeting of the Aristos Lit
erary society was held Friday evening
in Miss Duboc's room for the election

result of the election was as follows:
Alberta Paine, president; Cecil Smith
vice president; Raymond McFate, sec,
rotary; and Edwin Dodds, sergeant at
arms. The president and vice presi
dent meet with all committees. The
names of the committees and those
chosen are: Program, Lyle Venable
Dwight Abrams and Dull Miller.
