everybody was feeling languidly dis.
tended, Prof. J. III. Shepperd intro
duced DR.. Van Els, who responded t.
the toast The Southland. In this hi
| related several of his humorous eXper-
fences In the south and he gave Mr.
Churchill much humorous advice
which will probably be of some use
to him i'm his new home.
Professor Dolve responded to the
toast, Anticipation, which consisted
largely of comical stories, yet inter-
woven with q serious vein Of humor.
Professor Hoverstad responded to a
toast on Preparation. In this he told
of his first meeting with Professor
Churchill, when he first came to the
institution, a smooth faced, long-hair-
ed short trousered Michigan boy some
seven years ago. He also showed how
he developed into the broad should
cred brawny man he now is, as he
leaves for Oklahoma. He also show
ed how he might copy the fine execu
tive ability OF his chief, Professor
Shepperd, as well as some good quail
ty from each member present, with
whom we had been so closely asso-
ciated with for the past seven years
Professor Churchill then responded
to the toast, What Shall the Harvest
Be? In a humorous manner he told
of his many pleasant associations with
the different members of the faculty.
He stated it was with mingled regret
and JOY. he was leaving; regret at
leaving behind the friends at Fargo
joy at taking up the new and broader
work at the Oklahoma school. He
told of what he expected to do there
in that state where the cereals of the
north grow side by side with cot
ton and the fruits of the southland.
He hoped his pleasant associations
here would not end and he expected
to receive many pleasant letters from
each member present. He stated, II
hard, conscientious work would win an
abundant harvest he would certainly
reap such a harvest.
Professor Shepperd made some very
fitting and humorous remarks when
the cigars were again passed. The

hearty hand-shake and was hidden

latte Mr.. Trageton. His selection is but
another evidence of the superior work
done by the graduates of q normal
school In an institution of higher
learning and justifies the university in

ing to such graduates. While they
may lack something in the number
of book facts, yet their experience

them an equipment that enables them
to surpass the average high school
graduate who has been in the univer-
sity year.

TuE WAY.

According 10 the Record Herald,
the school management committee Of
the Chicago board of education has
recommended, at the instance of SUI
p-erlntendent Young ana the Juvenile
Protection league, the opening of one
OF the schools on two evenings and
n afternoon each week for social
ana recreational purposes. The after
noon session is intended for mothers,
ana lectures on hygiene. the home,
proper care OF children and kindred
topics win be arranged for them. At
the evening sessions singing, games
and gymnastics win be provided for
the youngsters, who viii thus be kept
off the streets and out of questionable
dance halls. 1t is TO be hoped that
the board will heartily lndorse this
proposal ana take an already too long
delayed step in the right direction.
The opening Of one school Tor the
purposes specified viii surely lead to
the grcntcr and wider use OF other
school buildings outside of the regu-
lar hours for study.
