oAKEs STATE HIGH SCHOOL
Kind hearts are the gardens,
Kind thoughts are The roots,
Kind words are the blossoms,
Kind deeds are the fruits.

Kind hearts are the gardens,
Kind thoughts are he roots,
Kind words are the blossoms,
Kind deeds are the fruits.
The weather tried the heating plant
a little harder than common last week.
Ross Mccartney and Edward Bitt-
man were visitors at the high school
last week. Their schoolmates gave
them hearty welcome.
The class in physics have been seek
ing to discover how the lines in a mag
netic field can rotate the armature of
a motor. Electricity is an interesting
force.
The school notes last week were
hindered by the heavy snow and the
cold wave. The school was in session
and all work ed we'll under the condi-
tions imposed.
The classes in Latin are finding some
difficulties as we'll as much pleasure in
mastering the lessons. The farther
the classes advance in the study the
better they like it.
The question of the commission plan
of government for cities is interesting
the schools of the state. The pupils of
the high school have been writing to
different parts to get information.
The boys and girls of the several
grades are taking good interest in the
work and the teachers report good
work from them. All are striving for
the training and power as we'll as for
the grades.
| Next week the state examinations
will begin. The school work will be
carried on with all who are not trying
the tests so that no more time than is
necessary will be taken from the
studies.
The boys and girls are making a
resolution to make perfect record for
attendance and punctuality. They
want the Oakes school to have a first
class report to send in to the depart
ment. It will require the united efforts
of all to make the best.
It is difficult task to learn to study
and one that can be learned only by
the act. 1t is the great object Of the
schools to teach how to study. A pupil
who has learned how to study has the
power in his possession to accomplish
almost anything.
The ninth grade will take up the
subject of elementary agriculture in
a short time. It is very interesting
subject. It does not deal just with
raising grain but teaches how to beau
tify home grounds as well as how to
get the best out of the soil and still
improve the soil. It is subject which
is of interest to every one as the living
comes from the soil.

Perfectly Lovely Party.

oI4oCtAy AOVo4y A3tys
We have considerable reason to be-
lieve that there was a delightful party
at the McCulley home last Saturday
euening given by Miss Roberta.
TLeastwise long about Tuesday six
teen of as pretty girls as have appeared
in the Photographic sections Of the
magazines since the protected paper
trust forced the price up to fifteen
cents spontaneously and simultaneously
appeared in this news factory and ask
for the local editor, Eyes they did) and
this jollied US so that we forgot to
scowl for two hours. Now most callers
don't realize that this sheet has local
editor, in fact they don't know us or
seem to care for US, they just ''holler"
for ''Alec." Of course it is not implied
that these sixteen girls care flor US
but they asked for us and that was
worth the price Of admission to see
Billy Burke. Maybe there wasn't six
teen Of 'em but that was our estimate,
based on the different silvery keys in
which they giggled. And we tried to
count 'em, in fact we did count all but
one and she Wouldn't stand still long
enough.
But did they tell about the party?
Did they? They told singly, severally
and unitedly, in four-four, syncopated
rag time, that Roberta had party
and it was just perfectly lovely and
there were about twenty there. And
we said, says we, innocently, "were
they all girls?" And they said, ''well
we should say not, the idea," and the
way they said it. And they had the
dearest refreshments ever devised
by Mrs. Rorer, Mrs. McCulley or any
body else. And we thought how nat
.ural it is for the ultimate consumer to
rave over the dearness Of food.
And the games they played. There
were six-handed, four-handed, and some
just two-handed games, each Of the
two furnishing one hand, changing
from left to right every twenty min
utes. But that principal game that
was played I'VE tried 80 hard to UNDER
stand about It and did really get an
impression that made, Us think. along
the next day when we had lucid
interval, Of Count CARPET Sweeper or.
Viscount Vacuum Cleaner or it might
have been Sir Hinkum Feather Duster.
Anyway it 3 .sjust perfectly killing
and isplayed something like authors Or
postoflice or pullaway or button button
and, I'VE hope we have it right we
think the object was to zee who went
home with Grant Bush.
But seriously we thought 1t awfuIly
sweet Of the young ladies' to bring ii
the news and il everybody In Oakes
would tell us as much about what is
going on In their own circle this paper
would be published in English, Iceland
! ish, Swedish and school girlish. daily
