offers to parents for their children
perhaps the best care of any institu-
ton In the state and as good as any
in the state. It is to be hoped that
every school can soon be given a like
equipment.
G. l.. Bake. former student OF
the normal, writes from Fort Morgan,
Colo, that he ia now assistant chem
list In q large sugar beet factory there
and that his brother Emil holds a
similar position in a plant at Stirling
in the same state. Good for the boys!
Graduates and all former students
OF the normal school are urged to at
tend the state educational meeting at
Fargo. If you are a teacher it is a
privilege to attend this meeting and be
a part in the great educational move
ment in a state that is moving right
along in the front of the procession
educationally as well as materially.
The programme provides something
each morning of Nov. I. and 8 for
the rural and the grade teacher es-
peciaily. 1t is the aim TO make this
meeting OF practical value. Attend
and get into closer touch with the
present movement in the educational
world.
The State Normal school graduates
and former students will hold a re-
union during the state educational
meeting at Fargo. Plans for such are
now being made and special notice
regarding the same will be given at
a general session during the associa-
ton meeting. Very pleasant reun-
ions have been held during the past
four years and IT il expected that
this will eclipse those both in size and
interest.

the, benefit OF those who are unable
to secure the catalogue.
The z M. and z. w. C. A. gave one
OF their delightful receptions last Fri
day evening in the gymnasium, in

a general air of jollity and good fell
lowship prevailed and the new corners

pirate rewards for the winners were
