HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

to date is 166. This is an increas,
Of "a over the enrolment at the clos'
OF the last school year and is 2:
more than were ever in the Higt
School at any one time before.
The increase in attendance il
largely due to the good looks of the
new teachers.
Pupils who enter after the present
date are requested to bring camp
stools and suit cases to be used as
desks. Additional room may be
found on the attic stairway.
The High School win soon make a
change in song books and the old
ones will be taken as paru payment
for the new. The pupils are delightst
at the prospect of having some new
music.
The Girls Glee Club organized
Tuesday afternoon with forty mem
bers. Five new selections have been
secured and the girls are ready for
work.
The first foot ball game OF the
season was played on Saturday, Oc-
tober with the Weiser team at
Weiser. The game was called at
three o'clock with Weiser kicking off
to Payette. Weiser showed that their
practice game with Caldwell the
week before had helped them and
In the first half they pushed Pay
ette hard, but after that our boys
settled down to work and kept Weis-
er from scoring. Because OF loose
playing due to lack OF practice our
boys did not succeed in scoring over
Weiser.
AS Weiser has not been able to
figure out why they could not win
from Payette on their own grounds
they refused to play return game
here last Saturday when both teams
had an open date. Psyette has an
open challenge to play Weiser when
ever they feel equal to the occasion.
The city council has. passed an, or
dlnance charging a license fee OF
$500 per day for playing foot ball
games in the city. This, we presume,
was done because we always come
out Gin the hole" anyway. We al
ways lose money on a football game
adding to our burden of loss. The
High School pupils are very indig-
nant about it. They would not be If
we could make expenses.

things, he expresses good wishes for
