Institute Announceme Mt.

The twenty-fourth annual session oi
the Custer County Teachers Institute
will be held at Custer, June 9th to
July 1st, inclusive. Teachers are ex.
pected to enroll Monday morning and
attend the full FIVE days.
1t is the aim of our instructors to give
special attention to methods and subject
presentation. Each year the county
goes to large expense to prepare the
teacher for better work in the important
line they have chosen. They must
know what to teach and how to teach
it; and it is the purpose of the Institute
to help along these lines.
Mr.. +. J. Kelley and Miss McGrath,
the instructors, have made teaching a
life work and are able, from their expe
rience, to aid and encourage young
teachers. Let US come to this meeting
for the good of all and return to our
work with brighter hopes and higher
ideals.

Custer People Support School.

EDITOR CHRONICLE
The closing exercises of the Custer
High School we're held on Wednesday
and Thursday, June l and 2.
Owing to the precedent that had been
established of making no charge for the
graduating exercises, an admission fee
was charged for Wednesday, to help
cover expenses. The citizens turned
out we'll and the receipts of the evening
amounted to S74.s5. This sum covered
expenses incurred by the class and left
a balance of few dollars in the Senior
treasury.
The Custer people showed by their
large attendance, close attention and
generous applause that their interest in
the school work is not dead. This spirit
in the past has contributed largely to the
advancement of the reputation of the
pupils who have gone to other institu-
tions. I felt very much gratihed with
the conclusion of my three years work
and wish to thank my friends for their
support.

In its article of the High School exer-
cises at Edgemont, the Express says
Superintendent Mossman, who in brief
manner introduced the speaker of the
evening, Rev. Katherine Powell, of Gus
ter. Mrs. Powell gave one of the strong
est addresses to graduates that it has
been our pleasure to hear She took
for her subject "The Past, Present and
Future of Our Country" and advanced
several pointed and convincing thoughts
for everyone in the audience to remem-
Der and work upon. To the graduates
her address was of the fact that they
were now commencing life in earnest
and, though apt to forget much, should
always cherish ideals, even to the swell
head which was much better than the
little head as the former would be soon
trimmed down while there was no hope
for the latter. The closest attention was
paid to her speech, many expressing re-
gret as to its briefness, though it lasted
for forty minutes

HIGH SCHOOL GLASS POEM.
The years have flown
Our school days gone
And tnp;ohf xva maat

Our school days gone
And tonight we meet
Our friends to greet.
These years have been supremely good
They've fed our minds with wisdom's
food.
But now the journeys end Is here
And we must part, from classmates dear.
One nine, one naught,
The year that brought
Halley's comet to pass
To honor our class.
So, here we are-the Seniors ten:
Eight girls we have and two brave men.
We're short and tall and lean and fat,
But always "iust right, for all of that
Our thanks to you,
Dear teachers true:
Your work is past,
But the good will last.
Each year you labored to send us higher,
Till at last we reached Professor Pryor.
A faithful Instructor he has proven to be,
And the result of his work-tonight you
see.
Herbert and Mont
Have stayed to the end.
They're the only boys
To share our joys.
We are anxious to see what they will do
For they have great minds, and Of plans
not few; ...
Mont. "the class baby, has surely done
well,
And "double H." great artist will be
we foretell.
Dear Belle and Ruth
1--WE speak the truth
Are very wise maids;
Just glance at their grades.
Then, there's Alice, the sunny, and Ter
resa, the fair,
Such girls as they, are certainly rare.
If the future fulfills this present pre-,
diction
They both will figure in popular fiction
Then there's Hylda Marie,
A busy girl she;
And Josephine Ann
Who'll marry a man.
For Hylda has always the class candy
made,
And Josie, at times, has at housekeep
ing played.
And Cora, so dear to US all, and so good
Making duty a joy-as all of US should
And l, the least
On the old class list,
Am sick at heart
That we must part.
For, where shall we find again sucl
pleasure
AS school days bring with all thei
treasure?
And will any OF Us live our lives il
vain2
And when, oh when, shall we NEE
againP
And still we ten
Wise maids and men
Must part to fight
For truth and right,
Along life's pathway and thru its door
Into the future-tnere to explore
And build a name and fortune great
Or shape the destiny of State.
But what may fall
To one and all
In future day
We cannot say.
We cannot see, nor now foretell,
But must prepare to meet it we'll
BY doing our part with the mighty
throng;
Bringing them cheer as we pass along.
