Mayviile. n. D., Aug. 1.-THE an
nual summer school evening Of fun
was thoroughly enjoyed by both stu
dents and faculty in the gymnasium
when all participated in the Sum
mer Amusements" found therein. The
students were divided into groups
representing the different grains
grown in North Dakota and there
was competition among the several
groups to secure the highest total
score. The several afnusements en-
joyed were baseball, tennis, croquet
on the campus, fishing, hunting the
big game in North Dakota, yachting,
ring toss and such. The rivalry ran
high and the various groups proved
r sportsmen. The honors were
won by alfalfa, the best crop in North
Dakota. Frappe and waters were
served at the close Of the feast of
fun and seemed to be az welcome as
the amusements.
Master Frank Walton. Gould is a
new arrival in the faculty family and
will make his temporary home with
Mr.. and Mrs. ". C. Gould. The par
t are receiving congratulations.
Advertisements for bids on auto
matte control and rewriting Of the

have been placed and the contract is
to be let on August Is.
Hon. ]. NJ. Devine. member Of the
normal school board Of control from
M1not, was a visitor at the school on
Wednesday and addressed the assem-
b!y at IL O'Clock. speaking on THE
educational and Material Advance
ment in North Dakota" His address
was listened to attentively and was
not only interesting but instructive as
well. The prospective teachers know
entirely too little of what hopes have
been blasted and what others have
been realized in the making of North
Dakota history. He lectured to q
large audience during the evening, his
subject being Abraham Lincoln"
This was an able lecture and the
points made were timely indeed, while
the incidents recited served to give a
much better idea Of Lincoln, the man.
Mr.. Devine was welcomed especially
by those who remember his former
visits to h school when he was state
superintendent Of public instruction.
After the lecture on Wednesday .ev-
ening the faculty together with Mr..
Devtne and Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. L. Ell
kin met informally and enjoyed a 30
cfal hour in the gymnasium.

Fans In the Eighteenth Century.

A letter in the London Spectator
dated May. III, gives a most interest
ing description of an academy where
ladies could be drilled in the proper
use of their fans and initiated into the
mysteries of 1.-The angry futter, the
modest fiutter. the timorous fiutter, the
confused futter, the merry futter and
the amorous flutter" In the eighteenth
century at dancing assemblies in Lon
don. Bath and other places of fashion
able resort gentlemen chose their part
ners by lottery Of the fam" The fans
of all the ladies present were placed in
a hat, whence each gentleman had the
privilege of selecting one. the lady TO
whom it belonged becoming his allotted
partner for the evening. Of course
such a custom entailed a great study
of fans On the part of the gentlemen.
Boswell. Steele and Pope found some
thing to say about the fan. and Guy.
charging upon the efforts of his prede
cessors. wrote a long poem in praise of
the fan. attributing its invention to
Venus.

New England.

SPRINGFIELD, MASS, Oct. Il, 1913.
Heavy rains Sunday and yesterday
were productive of the best tobacco
damp of the season. Hundreds of
growers worked early and late yester-
day taking down cured crops. A large
amount of leaf has been delivered to
warehouses in the bundle and the ware
house season will soon be under way.
The bulk of the new crop has been
sold at prices which have varied but
little from the outset.
The actual facts are that the New
EnSIand crop is not more than 70 or
Is per cent yield and that IS or 70 per
cent would probably be nearer actual
results. Thousands of acres of tobacco
soil which ordinarily produce from 1900
to 1900 pounds of tobacco per acre did
not yield more than !, 900 to 1900 pounds
this year. Hundreds of acres was of a
quality which scarcely warranted the
expense of harvesting.
