There is perhaps nothing that in
terferes more with effective school
work than parties given during the
school week. If the time actually
spent at the party alone be considt
cred, the ill-effects on school work
would possibly not be so marked.
But experience has taught all of us
that the mind cannot be centered
on school work, either while antici-
pating a jovial time or while the inn
pressions of night of amusement
are fresh in our memories.

Let everyone keep hustling to i'm
prove the appearance of their streets
and lots. Keep all kinds of rubbish
off the streets and sidewalks, and
see that your houses, fences, etc., are
neatly painted. There is nothing that
helps the looks of a town and in
duces newcomers to settle in it more
than neatly painted houses and
fences, neat and tidy streets and
walks, and fruit and shade trees
on your lots. Let us see what you
will do for the benefit of our pro,
gressive little city.
Where is the man so happy as
the one who applies himself to man
ual labor? Where is the home so
happy as the one where each mem
Der Of the household feels, at the
close of the day, that they have per-
formed some at least of the many
duties devolving upon them? There
may be clash some day between
capital and labor. Should this per-
iod ever come, the hope is that la
Dor, with the conquering tread of
hero, will trample beneath it's heel
the power that has, to a consider
able extent, made labor laborious.
We are all IbOrers in our little city.
