(For the Patrons and General Public
 Some changes in the general man.
 angement of the High School have
 been made for the present year, and for that reason a public explanation might not be amiss
 The purpose of the present teach ing force is to arrange the different activities of the school in such man. ner that the best results possible may be attained.
 Every channel possible will be kept open so the patrons and those inter- ested in the school and it's work may see for themselves just how much the students are doing, and just how much is being done for them.
 Parents may wish a clear under standing in regard to the fees that are paid in. This year we have two new organizations, the High School Glee Club, and the High School Ath- 1etic Association Both are con- plete organizations being controlled by constitutions, student officers and faculty advisor for each association.
 The Glee Club has a fee of fifty cents required of each member. This money pays for the sheet music used during the year. The Club is under the direction of Mrs. Will Chesnutt, with Miss Edna Kline pianist. Not more than three small cantatas will be given during the year and com plete operetta will be given during commencement week. The Club meets during school hours in Friday of each week for one hour of chor- ous work. Open meetings are held on Friday nights once every six weeks and the public is urged to attend all such meetings. The first of these will be held Friday, October 24th and an interesting program will be given free of charge. To each student doing the work required in the Club two high school credits are given. The returns from public en- tertainments, charging admission, will and the surplus for such enterprises as the Club may vote. The open are free of charge.
 Tie Athletic Association is formed to meet the physical need for recre- ation and pleasure. It is controlled by constitution the same as the Glee Club. The chief purpose is to establish a fund so that all uniforms suits and supplies may be bought and owned by the school and to meet ex- penses of games played. Students may buy and own their suits if they wish It is rather doubtful whether in one year the Association will be- come strong enough to buy all sup plies but a good start will be made.
 The fee of one dollar paid by each student belonging, and he may belong he participates in the sports or not, entities him to admission to all games of the school during the year. This is a saving to the student as under the old system he paid 25 cents admission for each game. The students have subscription list out and are calling on those interested to and make it possible to start a fund that will support the as socation permanently This list will be published in full when completed. In addition to this subscription list and the fees, the Association will stage a college play at the Princess, Oct. 31, for further financial sup port, and they also have billed for Nov 17 and IS, the Byran Trouba- dor singers who were here last year. Any person subscribing $2. 50 will be given a season ticket to all games of the school for the year.
 For the girls, Gym work, basket ball and tennis, with volley and medicine ball are offered. Mrs. Chestnut has charge of the training and coaching, while Miss Ives serves as faculty advisor. The Girls Gym class will give public demonstrations from time to time.
 For those taking part in the train ing two credits in the High School are allowed.

 For the boys, football, basketball, baseball, tennis and track are offer ed MT. Pearson is coaching root ball. while w. w. Carpenter serves as faculty manager.
