Miss Birdie Thompson is teach

been received and the work
seems to go on nicely.
Miss Long who is teaching the
temporary school in the north
west end of this district, too, has
been short of books, but is ex-
pecting to have the use of more
soon. This is Miss Longs first
term. She takes interest in her
work. They are doing some
good work in this school.
This is Lincoln year, the one
hundredth anniversary of his
birth. This is the year to devel-
op patriotism. We believe all
schools should have some appro-
pirate exercises to commemorate
the valuable deeds of this illus

Smart Touch for a Handbag

A New York woman recently dis
covered a use for heavy gold Ink
watchchain (of the style long ago dis
carded). belonging to her husband.
She had a small. gold-mounted hand
bag. with leather strap The latter
having become rusty from constant
friction with the hand. she removed
the strap, riveted the gold chain on
with gas pliers. and. behold, an add
ed smart touch without expense or
recourse to a jeweier. Since the pass
ing OF this style of chain those who
own ornaments of the kind find them
something of problem The splendid
workmanship often makes the smelt-
er's Office seem a sacrifice. and to
convert them into bracelets at Jew
eIer's is costly Here for more than
one of us is a really practical sugges-
ton requiring no outside assistance.
