When the days of September come
again the members of the high
school faculty will miss their familiar
faces and the sound of their voices in
class room and Railways; but they
will comfort themselves with the
thought that the members of the
class of IL are going on to accom-
plish great things in the wOrk-a-day
world.
The high school courses which
have been adopted by our board of
education look forward not only to
college aud university entrance. but
to the practical side of life as it
exists in our present complex ciyili-
ZatiOn
Our high school offers three dis
tinCt courses of study: the scientific,
the Latin scientific and the CONNER
cial or business. course. The meth
cd of choosing elective studies per
mits the students to group their worl,
IN many different ways To illustrate;
II a student takes the latin scientific
course. he may take two years of
Latin and two years of German; or,
three years OF Latin and another sci
euCe; or, three years of German and
another science. and many other
combinations can be made Each
course contains full work in English,
Each course also contains mathemat-
les and history
Our high school is on the ac-
credited list of the North Central
Association of High Schools and Col
leges. II is also on the accredited
list of Nassar and of Smith. Our
graduates can enter over fifty col
leges and universities without TAX
ing the examinations.
The object of our board of educa-
ton is to make the high school train
ing practical without neglecting the
cultural. BY the introduction of n
four-years' business course very care
fully planned and arranged, better
opportunities than ever before are
given the boys aud girls who desire

they graduate from high school or

. HERE is at least one man

IT HERE is at least one man
now in the United States
who believes in the prob
ity and exploits of Doctor +.
A. Cook. That man is in Grand
Junction today with the geographers
party, and is Prof. Oluf Olufsen,
of the chair OF geography of the Uni
versity of Copenhagen.
1t was to board of inquiry of
which Prof. Olufsen was mem Der
that DR.. Cook submitted the evidence
of his discovery of the North Pole.
and this board acclaimed him as the
first explorer TO reach the polar goal.
Other members of the board have
since recanted from that position but
not so Prof. Olufsen.
The topic of Cook and the North
Pole has been tacitly omitted by the
other members of the party from
conversation with the Danish scient-
lists, but to Sentinel representative
this morning Prof Olufsen said:
Yes. | know that DR.. Cook dis
covered the North Pole. There is
nothing to disprove his statements,
and | have never doubted him. Your
American Peary may have been
there. too. ! have not seen his evil
dence. But Cook was there first"
The fact that the doctor has been
discredited by the scientific world
and the public in general has no ef-
feet on Olufsen. Cook, he insists. is
a great contributor to the geographic
knowledge of the times and Is enti-
tied to the credit which Peary is
now receiving.

seen in their travels; and then later
through the orchards.

were hungry for information about
