The Sedgwick County High

in student activities. More and
more, the boys and girls of Sedg.
wick County are availing them
selves of the opportunity of
high school education. If you
are one of those who did not reg
lister, do it now.
Miss Natalie Snare, a splendid
athlete and competent coach, will

tics this year. The girls, under
the guidance of one who has the
athletic situation 80 we'll in hand

The High School is indebted to
Mrs. Sherman Stevenson for the
History of England in four vol
umes by Macaulay. We appre.
ciate this gift and commend the

Owing to the increased demand
for commercial work over for.

Last Friday morning Miss
Snare favored the students of the
High Scheol with two excellent
violin solos, accompanied by Miss
Labaree.
The interest in student activi-
ties has started with everyone on
his marks. Francis Rook has
been chosen to see that those with
powerful lungs de not let that
supply of good material perish.
Tuesday morning at assembly
period, Mr. Rook took charge
and in his enthusiastic manner
showed the students how to yell.
Mr.. Young entertained the stu
dents Monday morning with a
short story which they all enjoy
ed immensely.
Slowly but surely our Domestic
Science department is increasing
its equipment. The girls are
much pleased with the large sew
ing table, which makes the work
much more convenient.
After much study, the boys de-
cided their numbers were too
small to work up winning foot
ball team, and Tuesday evening
held their first meeting in the in
terest of basket ball. Much en-
thusiasm was shown and all signs
point to winning quintette for
1914. Track practice will be tax
en- up soon to work up endurance
for few of the events at the Fair
and to get into shape for the stren-
uous season to follow.

GOVERNMENT POWERS
Court Decision Extends Them in Con-
troll NavigabIe Rivers.

Washington, June 4.-Because the
sweeping extent to which it upholds
government ownership and control of
water power on navigable rivers the
decision of the supreme court in the
Chandler-Dunbar case is being printed
as a public document at the request of
Senator Burton of Ohio.
The senator regards the opinion as
epochal in that it holds that the gov
eminent in seeking to improve a river
for navigation is not required to pay
out millions to owners of the river
banks or of the riverbed for water
power incident to the banks or bed.
The court held these owners have no
ownership of the waterpower as against
the government seeking to improve
river for navigation.
Senator Burton also sees in the de-
cision an answer to the recent argu-
ments of Senator Ogorman, of New
York, and several western senators.
Government after improving a river
for the purposes of navigation could
not control the waterpower resulting
from that improvement but let it revert
to the adjoining land owners. He lays
emphasis upon that part of the decis-
ion which says the government need
not let this power go to waste but may
use it or lease it to private individ
Ual or concern.
