that some pupils can do many times

and they shall now have the opportuni-
ty to do this together with the credit
for doing it. The Iock-step system is

progressing with unusual regularity
and system. There is definite organ
ization in each department, and the
usual getting started" bug-bear has
been a minus quantity.
Due to the augmented attendance,
the president who in the fall term
did no class work, but spent the great
er part of the time travelling in the
interests of the school, has been COM
PEELED to teach a number Of classes
this term. 1t is mainly the classes
in religion that he has in charge.
Activity in the various student or
ganizations, e. g. the band, the Choral
union, the Athletic union, and the lit
erary societies, was evident from the
very outset, and much new strength
has been added with the arrival of so
many new students. Concerning
these various organizations their work
and plans, more will be said in later
issue.
The patronage given the music de-
partment of the school this term made
it necessary to engage two more teach
ers in pianoforte. Mrs. Langie of
Fargo and Miss Lillian Wright of this
city have been added to the music
faculty and already their schedules
are very we'll filed. Miss Norma L.
Olsen, who teaches the advanced piano
pupils. has had more applications than
she. has been able to take care Of At
present there are ever 100 registered
for piano and voice culture instruction
at the college.
