In summers past the assistant secretaries were the officials who held the bag" as it were. They were left in Washington as acting and remained to fIoun- der around in the heat until their chiefs might decide to come back.

They have. of course, been given a months vaca- ton in each year, but, in official cir cles. a month is not regarded as any vacation at all. IL is not enough of a to open ones summer place. nor enough to go to Europe and not enough to go to the Pacific coast. It Is looked upon simply as g breath Ing spell.

WILL REVIVE THE ALUMNI

From Saturdays Daily. "
Yesterday afternoon from five to
six, a tea was given in the kinder
garten rooms at the normal, to which
members of the alumni of the normal
school and the present senior class
were invited. In addition to the So
cial feature, a business meeting was
conducted with A. J. Veigel in the
chair. 1t was voted that the last
elected officers should be retained in
office until the regular business
meeting next June. Those officers
are George w. Sugden. president;
A. ]. Veigel, vice president, and
Amelia Iceberg, secretary. A com.
mittee of three was then appointed
whose duties are to arrange for. fu-
ture meetings, to revise the constitu-
ton, and to report upon the feasibil-
ity Of having two meetings during
the year, the first to be held in Feb
ruary during the teachers conven-
ton and the second in June at com.
mencement.
Eight resident alumni poured cof-
fee and waters were served. Fully
$50 people were present and great
deal of enthusiasm was manifested.
The normal has had no alumni meet
ings since 1903 and this attempt to
revive the association and to make
it a powerful influence for the good
of the school is most laudable and
deserving of the loyal, active sup
port of all graduates.

of the commission form of govern

Sewers and Water Bill.
The following is the report of the
committee on the sewer and water
bill
ITO HOn. Fl. A. Patterson, Persi
deM Of Mankato Commercial Club.
Sir: The undersigned committee ap-
pointed to consider and report upon
the merits of bill to require the
state board of health to examine
plans for and inspect the cOnstruc-
ton OF waterworks and sewerage
systems i'm this state, copy of
which bill is herewith presented, do
respectfully report.
THAT we consider the proposed
law desirable one in It's general
features.
'The act of congress authorizing
our state government, prescribing the
boundaries of the state, reads
thence (sOutherly in direct line to
the head of Big Stone Lake, thence
through its censtr to it's outlet,
thence by a due south line to the
north line of the state of Iowa
THE Minnesota river is the out
let of Big Stone lake, and this due
south line may for q short distance
run along and in the Minnesota
river, so as to constitute the Min
nesota river, for short distance
near Ortonville in Big Stone county,
the boundary line between Mime
sofa and South Dakota, and if so, and
if any city or village in that state
should discharge sewerage into that
river at that poiht, then that river
would be excluded from the operation
of this act.
while the provisions of section
6 may be considered as somewhat
drastic in its application to drains
and creeks through farm property,
yet if some such law had been in
effect at times in the pask,> several
epidemics of diphtheria and other
diseases might have been avoided
On the whole we recommend the
bill for approval. Signed Lorin
Cray, John Wilson, Carl ]. Holman,
committee.
