HIGH SCHOOL

The Baseball team of the Morris
High School had their first practice
Monday night and fifteen men turned
out. Eight of them are last years
men and the rest are new men.
| Darling will catch, Burns and Satter
will do slab duty, Bicknell, last years
| shortstop, is the only man out for that
position. so that place will be filled.
First. second and third are bones of
contention. two or three men trying
for each position. Left field is prac-
tictaIly decided. Ed. Nelson last year. S
left is again out for it. Center and
right are being fought for, by about
six men. Last year the H. S. had a
very successful season and completed
a bigger schedule than has been at
tempted for years by the previous H.
S. teams and won all their H. S.
games in the bargain. This year the
team will have new gray suits with
orange and black stockings, so anyone
making the team can congratulate
himself on being able to sport the
High School colors.
A new member was added to the
"Troquet Club Tuesday. The club
is in flourishing condition and new
members are being constantly added.
The number has now sweIled to nine
and under the able plotting of Presi-
dent Satter should continue to grow.
Hjalmer Dohlen has formed a class
in photography to teach the young
hopefuls of the High School the gen.
tie art of taking pictures. Gobbler
is a very accomplished artist and
should make good. He took his first
class out for short lesson last Sun
day. All report a most enjoyable
time.
The seed train special attracted a
large number of the High School and
lower grade students. Permission was
given by Mr. Fuller to attend and a
large crowd from the school were pre-
sent. The High School were compell-
ed, much against their will to give the
Agricultural school few lessons in
yelling. The Ags. are little peeved
over their non-success but they must
remember that they are still veritable
kids in knee pants. The speeches of
the takers seemed to bring forth
many startling discoveries for it de-
veloped that one of the H. S. girls
never eats.
The Senior party had planned to at
tend a basket social, to be given at
Miss Blanch Kohl's school near Han
cock on Thursday evening but the
date was change to Friday evening
and this makes it impossible for them
to attend. It is regretted that they
were unable to 60 as very enjoyable
time was expected.
Ed Nelson's glove has been lost or
stolen. If it has been lost. finder
will receive pleasant look. If it has
been stolen, he that took it will get |
his neck wrung. Sweeny is on the
warpath. |
Martin Berg is now following the
example of Olaf Satter and1is taking
music by correspondence. Ask Martin |
to favor you with his latest Greek
song. Hilda Kohl accompanies him
in all his selections.

MIR. Ormond's Letter.


Your interesting letter of Feb. 26,
relative to the consolidation of rural
schools in the Township of Hegbert, is
received. I am very much in favor
of such a consolidation.
While I do not wish to criticise the
rural schools of this state as presently
organized I feel that they are entirely
insufficient to meet the demands of
education in the agricultural COM
munities. Children are oblidged to
leave home to get the benefits of high
er education, and in so doing become
attached to their new surroundings
and seldom return to the place of
their early training. am inclined to
the belief that the present tendency
to desert the farms and migrate to the
cities is largely due to the defects in
our school system as now maintain
ed. 1t is wholly impossible to main
tain four district schools in the town.
ship of Hegbert and enjoy at the same
time. the full benefits of competent
teachers. suitable school buildings
and necessary equipment. By the
consolidation of the schools greater
economy could be practiced in
those lines and you would be in posi-
tion to employ the services of the best
teachers and enjoy the benefits of
proper school buildings and pleasant
surroundings. The average pupil could
then acquire at home suitable educa-
tion and would not be compelled to
leave home for this accomplishment.
A consolidated school in your town
ship would. in my judgement, be
most desirable thing, greatly increase
your educational facilities, the plea
sure of living in the community and
naturally tend to make farming life
there more attractive and consequent
ly add to the value of the agricultural
lands. This seems to me certain
ana definite consequence. .t..
I trust that you will be successful
in your enterprise and, if you do, you
can rest content that you and those as
sociated with you in your efforts to
make this consolidation will be re-
in the minds of future gen.
erations of children when the little,
old, white rural school house has pass
ed into the scenery of dreams.
Very sincerely yours,
James B. Ormond.

THE REAL MEANING OF THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

Iii lSlHldS, the magic SCdSOIl,
when men, inspired by the senti-
ment of the age old message:
peace on earth, good will to
men," by voice and pen, nomen-
{ tarily take up for serious consid-
Grafton mans duty to his fellow
men, brings to light much that is
to be admired and some things
that are to be deplored.
No doubt Herbert Kaufman
in his editorial on Christmas and
the girl behind the counter"
which appeared in the Workers
Magazine section of last Sundays
Tribune was promted in its writ
ing by his conception of a Christ
mas duty.
In this article he takes the buy
ing public to task for its harsh
judgment and unappreciative atti-
tude toward the overworked toll |
er to whom the holiday season
means increased labor without
any special reason for happiness.
But through its entire length
runs the undercurrent of the bust
ness admonition SHOP early; buy |
now; purchase quickly. Come
and spend your money without |
further delay so that your pres |
ents may come into the, waiting |
hands of loved ones unstained by |
the tears of misery rom overtax- |
ed workers"
We look in vain for that Christ |
spirit which puts human joy
above financial gain. It's simply |
a business argument robbed of
any real Christmas significance
and intended to help the money

seeks 10 COln everything into
money, can't keep even from soil
ing the beauty and glory of the
Christmas season with sordid
ideas?
Writers like Kaufman are not
to be blamed. They work for
money the same as any laborer
does; and in order to hold their
job, must do what the newspaper
for which they work, wants them
to do.
The newspaper that depends
for. existence on advertising is in
no better position since it must
obey the voice of its master the
merchant prince who controls the
advertising.
And this merchant prince,is out
for the coin and nothing that will
add to his profits is ever passed
up untried-small pay, long hours
and unpaid overtime have been
the policy of most of them. The
new 10-hour law for women helps
some, but it hasn't increased their
wages.
The Chicago vice commission
boldly stated that the low wages
paid women and girls by depart
ment stores was the cause of so
many girls going astray. The
daily newspapers know this is
true, and might, under the infu-
ence of the Christmas spirit, use
the columns of their papers to
play Santa Claus to the miserably
underpaid wage-slaves of the de-
partment stores, if they weren't
afraid of what would happen to
their advertising.

MURRAY TO STAY
AS COMP TROLLER
OF THE CURRENCY
Reconsiders Decision to
Leave After Talk With
MacVeagh.

It was announced aat the White
House today by Secretary MacVeagh
of the Treasury that Lawrence o.
Murray, Comptroller of the Currency,
would not resign, but would serve out
his present term of FIVE years.
Later in the day Mr.. Murray him
self announced that he had recon-
sidered his determination to leave the
Treasury and that he would stay on
until the end of his term to put into
effect the changes and reforms initi-
ated by him.
Secretary Macveagh said today that
he had had a conference with the
comptroller this morning. At that
time Mr.. Murray said that as he had
not been appointed to office by Presi-
dent Taft, he felt that he might now
give way to some other man whom
the President might prefer.
This idea the Secretary opposed, as
surfing the Comptroller that the Admin
istration was pleased with the way in
which the office was being run and
urged Mr.. Murray to remain with the
Government. The result of the confer
ence was the reconsideration and the
rejection by the Comptroller Of the
handsome offer to become president Of
the First National Bank Of PIttsburg
This bank had rendered the presi-
dency to Mr.. Murray and II the Secre-
tary and the President had not pre-
vailed upon him to remain in the Treas
ury probably he would have accepted

TO FIGHT
MOTHERS PETITION
FOR ANNULMENT
Fifteen-Year-Old Brides Pa
rents-in-Law Will Op-
pose Action.

Determined that the marriage of
their fifteen-year-o daughter, Bena
Virginia, to Reuben Rose, a young
, Pension Office messenger. shall be
annulled, Mr.. and Mrs. Virgil Polling
were today in conference with their
attorneys regarding preparation Of
the petition. According to statements
of the family the papers will be filed
in District Supreme Court within the
week, and the action brought to a
speedy hearing.
In the meanwhile young Rose and
his runaway bride are occupying
apartments at an address they refuse
to divulge, and say that the knot tied
last Friday in Rockville will not be
severed without a fight. The young
mans family likewise is determined
be marred by marriage annulment
and say that they will aid him in his
struggle to keep his wife.
Additional light thrown upon the
circumstances of the elopment this
morning by Mrs. Polling showed that
Miss Polling and Rose had been stu
dents together in grade school, and
mat the runaway marriage was but
the elimination of a childhood court
ship. That Rose was a caller at the
house for only one week preceding
the elopement except in the manner
OF numerous schoolboy friends of the
girl, Is, however, insisted upon.
Were Schoolmates.
six months ago Bena was in short
Skirts said her mother today. Her
hair was down her back in pigtails, and
yet the family of Rose say that he had
been calling upon her for more than a
year. 1t is ridiculous. Like any other
girl, Bena had her schools friends here
at the house at different times. II Rose
was ever here it was upon these occa-
sions. In my opinion the entire affair
was nothing but school boy and girl
love affair"
The aunt and sister of Rose, who live
at 1922 New Jersey avenue, stated this
morning that the bridegroom had pro-
and that, despite the interference of the
girls parents, the couple would be
happy. They refused to say what de-
tense Rose would set up in the annul-
ment suit when brought.
Mothers Plans.
Directly the marriage is annuled, If 1t
Is annulled, the girl will be placed in a
convent school, according to the ex-
pressed plans of her mother.
My daughter has been brought up
not to realize the sense of discipline"
said Mrs. Polling, land she undoubtedly
thinks that | will forgive her for this
marriage. She learned our intentions
ON this matter, however, when she
called up her father Saturday. If we
can break the marriage Bena will be
placed in school where she will learn
obedience"
According to reports from the license
clerks office at Rockville, the officials
there, moved by the fact that Rose and
the Polling girl so easily secured
license, will in the future insist upon
proper Identification. 1t is probable
that a movement will be started to do
away with Washington marriages un-
less the couple are accompanied by wit
nesses who can vouch for them.
