AT the recent meeting of the
State Board of Education held in
indianapolis in the office of Charles
A. Greathouse, state superintendent
of instruction, action was taken
looking to uniformity in the high
schools of the state. It was decided
to ask for all certifcations of all
high schools surrendered on June
30. 1912. They will then all be sub
mitted TO re-examination, and made
uniform in scope. This will insure
a uniform basis. and all certified
high schools will be the same in re-
gard to requirements. If thew can
not measure up to the required
standard they will not be what are
called certified high schools.
Plymouth high schools will have
nothing to fear from this action, but
rather will be gamer, for it is not
the aim of the state officers to lower
the standard, but rather to raise it.
and as Plymouth is now we'll to the
top in all that can be required, it is
sure of position. Many schools that
have made claims that we're not well
grounded will now be required tc
raise the standard to meet the state
board or the certificates will not be
issued.

A Pleasant Surprise.

Richard gathered at her home Sun
day evening and gave her a pleasant
surprise, the occasion being her
twenty-frst birthday. Arrange
ments were made for the crowd to
meet at the store 827 north Center
street, at 7:30, then 60 to her homo,
where she was taking life easy In
the coy corner, not dreaming Of
the pleasant time planned for her
nor did the approaching footsteps
throw any light on the subject as
she thought it was only ''--,"
the customary Sunday evening call
er. Surprised was the greeting;
hut all did not end here, for a half
hour later the sudden and unex-
pected appearance of friend of the
hostess, Miss Mary Gerstbauer of
Mishawaka. After this the games
were again resumed in which every
one took lively part. During the
evening an apetizing three course
lunch was served. Many beautiful
gifts were brought as souvenirs of
the event which will long be re-
membered by those whose departure
at late hour bespeaks the pleasure
so thoroughly enjoyed by all.

PLYMOUTH DEFEATS wINoNA
In Fast Game Local Basket Ball
Team Mows Down the Boys
From the Lake.

p. H. S. Basket Ball Team met
and defeated Winona Academy Fri
day night by a score of SO to %.
This was, beyond a doubt, the fast
est game of the season. Both teams
did some excellent work and as thew
are about evenly matched the strug-
gle, for it may be justly called
struggle, was highly exciting dur
ing every minute of the play. There
was large crowd present and Plym
outh showed an abundance of the
right sort of school spirit in their
yells, which were lead in first class
style by Don Stephenson, who is
proving himself one of the best
cheer masters P. H. S. has ever had.
The score at the end of the first
half was IL to ID favor of Winona.
The second started with some lightn-
ing work on both sides which con-
tinued up to the last minute. Every
man on the home team played an
exceptionally good game. especially
Capt. Richter who scored the most
points of the game. Winona men al
SO put up a good fight, lead by their
Center Trowbridge and Capt.
Eickenberry. They brought about
twenty-five "rooters" down with
them and Bremen was also repre-
scented by about ten students.
Following is the lineup:

Miss Elsie Peoples.

Miss Elsie Peoples, who has for
many years made her home with and
been cared for by Mrs. Mary Morri-
son on Plumb street, and before
that with Mrs. Morrison mother,
the late Mrs. Fisher, was taken sick
a few days ago, but was not thought
to be seriously i'll. A sudden change
caused her death at seven O'Clock
Thursday evening.
She was not known in society,
being of low mentality. but she had
many traits of character withal
which could be emulated by those
who had brighter minds than she.
She was faithful and true. Perhaps
wilful at times as a child, but her
friends could depend on her to do
what she conceived to be hers to do.
She has a sister, Mrs. Mahala
Kipfer of Bremen, but was in no
way related to. the people who have
cared for her nearly all her life, and
provided her a home and all the
comforts she could appreciate.
The funeral will be conducted by
Rev. W. c. Logan Saturday after
noon at 200 o'clock from the home
of her benefactress, Mrs. Morrison,
and she will be laid to rest in Oak
Hill.

A BIG CONVENTION.

The County Sunday School con-
vention held last week has far sur
passed the expectation of the man
agement. 1t has become one of the
big annual events of the county,
and all classes of people must sit up
and take notice of che convention
dates and doings.
The work done In training teach
ers for better work in Bible teach
ing is bringing about almost a revo-
LUTON in Sunday school work. Old
and poor methods In Sunday school
are giving away to good methods, and
as a result of these better methods
more people are being interested in
the work than could have been inter-
ested under the old plans-or rather
lack of plans. Sunday school chill
dren are actually beginning to learn
something about the Bible, Bible
lands and history.
The energy and enthusiasm which
the officers and other workers have
put into the county convention have
had telling effect and are produc-
ing results. Marshall county is
right at the front in this work in
Indiana. and Indiana is at the front
in the United States. The remark
able success of the convention last
week shows with what we'll
directed and enthusiastic efforts the
officers have carried forward their
plans of work.
