On new term with new opportunitie

The average student always heave
sigh Of relief when the first min
weeks are over. 1t is the period of ad
justment, the formation of habits o
study, Standardization to new teacher

Louise Meade, one Of this years ser
ious seniors gave a. very pleasing voca

then addressed the students on 1.-THE

FRESHMEN NOTES.
During the past week the English
classes have been studying LowelPs
poems. AS soon as the classes finished
their outside reading, 1.-THE Arabian
Nights Entertainments, they will take
up the study of Dickens Christmas
Carol
The study of positive and negative
numbers in Algebra has proved very
interesting, especially the solving Sim
possible" problems. 1t is trying work
to find the height of tree and then
later find that the tree does not exist
There were some whose examination
grades rose to 100 per cent. in Ancient
History. Miss Marguerite reports our
English papers to be unusually good.
We have not as yet heard from our
tests in Algebra, but we are devoutly
hoping that they may be as good as our
other test grades have been.
Miss CRUDE is greatly delighted with
the progress the Freshmen Latin class
is making in pronunciation.
The majority of the Freshmen are
very anxious to see the report of this
their first quarters work. We are hop
ing that there will be no term failures
but that we will all be on the road to
success.
Harry White enrolled this week as a
new member of the Freshman class.
We are always glad for new member
and we heartily welcome him into our
band.
We are sorry to say that we lost
three members this week from our class.
They were, Jesse Moes, Frank Mosier
Clifford Terry. The latter is reported
to be attending school of telegraphy
at Chillicothe, Mo.

young ladies and gentlemen of both q
The young men were CARRIED I
decorously in the customary evening
dress, while as usual the fair damsels" i
biossomed forth in perfect dreams" I
IF Partisan gowns. The house was ar
decorated with weird Jack-o- Z
anterns. All the games sacred to All
Hallows Eve, such as bobbing for ap- Il
lies. were played. The party broke up d
It the witching hour Of night, and af- u
er seeing the girls safely home, the Y
'oys hastened about those rites pecu- e
iarly sacred to Halloween.
That hated English test has fallen q
nd our grades are just about - We o.
