VII NOTES

Langdon high school was represented
by Alex. Robertson and Richard Boyd
in the Fargo inter scholastic track meet.
Our boys did fine work there, Alex
Robertson taking second place in the
mile run and also in the half-mile run;
while Richard Boyd captured the second
place in the broad jump and third in
one and two hundred twenty yard
dashes. Our school scored a total of
thirteen points. The news of these
achievements reached us by long dis
lance phone Saturday evening and our
loyal rooters lost no time in getting to-
gether and giving a few good yell. Mon.
day noon the high school and grammar
pupils went down in a body to meet
our %conquering heroes. Today the track
team goes to Grand Forks and we hope
that we will have another opportunity
of cheering our boys when they come
back Monday noon.
Athletics by no means absorbs all
of our attention. We are on the eve Of
the long prepared for examinations,
every subject is being thoroughly re.
viewed.
The German II class have begun a
general review of the classics which
they have read during the school year
They are now reading "Der Neffe Ais
Onkle" and are laughing wei the pre-.
dicament of the poor uncle.
The geometry class is again laborine
through the mysteries of projections
and mean proportlonals
The. freshman classes are making g
supreme effort to acquire some high
school credits.
On Tuesday the school was honorec
with a visit from Mr.. Hyler, president o.
the Mayville normal school.
The eighth graduation exercises viii
take place June 3rd at the opera house
The members of the graduating class ART
hard at work on their class play.
A school exhibit will be held on Fri
day May 9th. Some work in drawing
and penmanship will be exhibited.

MORE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.

Democratic politics continue to hold
the center of the stage and added in
terest is manifest with the announce
ment this week of John Reid, of Olga,
for the senate and E. J. Moen, of Osna-
brock, for the house in the Fortieth le-
g~islative district. The combination is
one of such strength that the outcome
of the battle which the opposition have
on their hands to fight out at the pri-
maries is certain to have little if any ef-
feet on the ultimate result in November.
Mr.. Reds candidacy is beng received
with an unqualified approval right from
the start, the position he has held for
years on the county board and his public
service extending over the eastern part
of the county practically dates back to
the time of its first organization and
marks him as a capable mar to repre-
sent the Fortieth district in the state
senate at Bismarck.
The voters of the Fortieth district
have shown Hon. e. j. Moen, of Osna-
brock that he owes it to them to stand
for reelection this fall. The announce
ment of his candidacy in fact has been
awaited both by his democratic and re-
publican friends alike since the cam
paign has first opened. His record of
two years ago is a clean n and invites
the inspection of all who would support
a fearless fighter for clean, honest legis-
latlon in behalf Of the people.
The democrats are again the pace
makers in bringing out candidates for
the vacancies that occur this year in
three of the commissioner districts. In
the First district MIR. Louis Schneider,
who was appointed to fill out the term
of Com'r Mcknight, deceased, is not a
candidate for reelection, but the demo
Gratis of the whole district are united in
their support of the candidacy of Mr..
Elias Porter, of Calvin, who is sure to
add to the strength and harmony OF the
democratic band wagon in the weatern
portion of the county. Fol the Second
district Munich finds for itself represent
tation on the democratic county ticket.
Mr.. John H. Heeren, of Munich, is a new
candidate, but the way in which Munich
urges his candidacy plainly demon
strates that he is the logical representa-
tive of the southwestern part of the
county on the board of county commits
sioners. In the Fifth district Com'r
Alex Russell stands for election, appar-
emily without opposition whatever. In
filling out the term of Mr.. Brady, who
retired he has made a splendid record on
the board and his election is generally
demanded by his constituents.

PROSPECTS ARE VERY BRIGHT.

We have been informed that Miss
Helen Sullivan, A. b. 'O6, has recently
announced herself as candidate for
county superintendent of Cavalier Co.
Miss Sullivan entered the university
in the fall of 1903 and graduated in
1906, having with the addition of two
months summer school completed the
four years course in three years.
During her course she paid special
attention to the science and art of teach
ing and received the Teachers college
diploma as we'll as her degree.
The friendly disposition and the Wig.
orous way in which she attacked her
work and entered into the university
activities o made her a favorite with
the students and professors and led to
her being recognized as a promising
student.
Her ability as a debater was early
recognized. By the end of her first
year a place on her society's team in
the Gansl medal debate was assured
For two years-until her graduation
she was a member OF the winning teams
in this debate. She took a great deal
of interest in basketball, playing as sub
stituts on the girls team the first wear
as a regular member of the team the
second year and as captain the third
year.
The year following her graduation
she did post graduate work at Trinity
college. Washington, D. G. Through
the courtesy of North Dakota senators
and representatives she enjoyed Q K
%ceptionable opportunities to see and
profit by the life of our capitol city.
The year 1907-O8 was spent at home
assisting her father in his business
matters as she had done during the
summer for several years.
The fall of 1908 she took up her duties
as principal of the first class high school
at Cavalier. The following spring she
was reelected to the position.
At the meeting of the Pembina Teach
ers' association last November she was
unanimously as elected secretary and
made a member of the committee on de-
batting. Her many friends feel that if
elected she would make an energetic,
efficient and tactful supsrintsndsns.-
