ASHLAND HIGH SCHOOL
Personal Notes That Tell of Activi-
ties in the Realm of the
Three RS.

Miss Sergeant of Pueblo, Cal, and
Miss Edmunston of Portland have
lately entered the high school.
The new electric power saw has
been installed and is kept busy most
of the time. Its music livens up the
dull studies of Latin and history.
About % students are getting out
to orchestra practice each Thursday
evening and the prospects are bright
for good organization.
The boys have almost enough bas-
ketball games to assure them a trip
north during the holidays. Dallas,
Newberg and Cottage Grove all want
games both on their floor and at
Ashland.
The jingling of the bell sent the
students rushing for the outside of
the building Friday afternoon for
their first fire drill. The larger boys
have been assigned to duty in d'f-
ferent parts of the building so that
there is little danger of a panic.
The building was cleared in about
minute. One of the features of
the drill was Alvin Wheeler's grand
getaway from the Caesar class. He
would evidently rather fight fire
than Gauls.
A number of Halloween parties
are being planned among the teach
ers and students, with every assur-
ance of general good time.
DR.. Gregg addressed the last meet
ing of the Agricultural Club on In
tensive Poultry Raising" giving his
experiences in raising poultry on a

to continue the same line of discus
sion for the next meeting.
The chemical department has re-
ceived its supply of chemicals and is
now equipped for the years work.
Mr.. Coen has been greatly handi-
capped in his work by the delay in

The members of the Abof Club are
Claire Johnson, Margaret Patterson,
Vivian Greer, Lucille Barber, Esther
Whited, Margaret Siemantel, Marion
Hodgson, Olive Thorne, Josephine
Saunders and Ruth Turner, all very
prominent in high. school and social
affairs.
Many of the high school students
attended the Trinity girls dance, one
of the most delightful invitation af-
fairs of the year. Memorial hall was
comfortably filled with the very mic
est of young people. The Trinity
girls fully lived up to their reputa-
tion for hospitality. Chaperons were
Mrs. Hill, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs.
Barges.'
Jan Mowatt, '12, has returned
from California and has entered
schools:
The Abof girls are giving a unique
affair for Thursday night, which,
judging by whispers and rumors,
ought to be one of the pleasant af-
fairs of the Halloween season. Its
being leap year, the girls are inyit-
ing their boy friends. An old vacant
house on Oak street, opposite Greer's
residence, will be the scene of the
revels. Mrs. Greer, Mrs. Turner and
Miss Carr will be the chaperons.

come another corrupting influence

am opposed to The dollar diplo-
macy which has reduced our State
Department from its high place as

guise of providing elasticity to our
currency system and relieving

means of concentration of the

OPERATIONS AT BONANZA

Superintendent Oril Russell of
the Raleigh Mining company of
Bonanza, Colo, and w. j. Bennett
former we'll known mining man
located at Bonanza, but now res
ident at Golden, Colo, were in
Del Norte, two or three days this
week in connection with business
at the U. s. land office concerning
the property of the Raleigh CON-
pany.
This company is behind the
largest and most extensive develop
ment work ever undertaken in the
Bonanza district, having operated
in that well known mineral belt
for several years past. At the
present time work is being pur-
sued in driving the Raleigh tun-
mel, the completion of which prom
ises great things for the entire
district.
The object of the tunnel is for
exploration and drainage purposes
and cuts territory at a great
depth, which is highly mineralized.
The bore is now in a distance of
over 1000 #. and when completed
will measure $500 feet. In driv-
ing this tunnel Supt. Russell re-
ports that two modern machine
drills have been used and three
shifts of machine men with five
muckers to the shift have been
employed The distance driven
each month has been over 400 feet,
but during this month the record
would be broken by drifting 500
feet.
When this tunnel is completed
we look for Bonanza to become
one of the large mineral producers
of Colorado -Prospector.
