Many, perhaps, are not aware that
the school has added to its curricu-
lum manual training course The
total number of students taking this
which is made up of Eighth graders.
The object is to fit the pupils as
nearly as possible to meet the prac-
tical problems along this line which
they will meet outside of school AS
yet no machines have been pur-
chased, but it is possible that next
year few lathes may be bought for
the use of the high school students.
The lower grades are being taught
the first steps, such as saving and
planning Each member has COM
pleted some article for the use of the
shOol and all are now working on
articles for their own use. The high
school students have completed a
staining and gluing table and a sec
ond is also under way. The work is
very interesting, as is proved by the
fact that Mr.. Davis, who has charge
of this departm ent, finds it neces-
sary to almost drive the boys from
the room at quitting time. This
work is certainly of practical value
and should be encouraged. At pres
ent the quarters are very crowded,
and. if plans to give the whole high
school a course in this work are car
ried out, much more floor space will
be needed.

Tomorrow afternoon the undefeat-
ed Pullman high team will meet the
Rosalia squad, also undefeated. On
this game hinges the county cham
pionship and the story of three years
of hard work on the part of the Pull
man team will be told. Needless to
say, the boys will do their best to
again win the cup that it may come
into our permanent possession.
There are but few ways of compar-
ing the two teams as Rosalia has
played but one team which we have
met. With their lineup in very poor
condition at the beginning of the sea-
son they defeated Tekoa 1870, while
Pullman. in the best of condition,
only defeated them by score OF ~
to 0. The Rosalia boys are very
heavy and If the field is in good con-
