What is that awful crash? Where
does it come from? It startles every
Sne. The teacher in charge is dis
furbed. The sound is traced to the

C. w. Harlan appeared at the Ar
mory last Friday evening under the
auspices of the High school and en-
tertained small but loyal contingent
OF the High school with a few town
people. Mr.. Harlan scored hit with
his audience and made good as vo-
calist and as an impersonator. No
doubt he could have done better if he
had had the inspiration of large
crowd. The receipts left the athletic
funds with deficit of forty-five dol
lars which will have to be made up
by some other means.
The last of September a picnic was
given
To the new teachers by the old.
To Cowells farm we'll go, not to
Chautauqua
Prof. Taylor was told.
But his memory must have failed him,
For to the Chautauqua he went
And thru this forgetfulness of his
he missed the whole event.
Yes, to this fine picnic most tardy
was he,
Which shows very plainly that he
should take
Some lessons from the bee.
Wednesday morning Mr. Biles, our
agricultural teacher gave very in
teresting talk on the the habits of the
honey bees. He named and described
several species Of bees. The students
appreciated his talk very much.

padded all over. Inquire Of Webby.
The High school football team went
to jamestown last Saturday and play.
I'd the college team there. The re-
sulting score was II to 0 in favor of
the college team. A heavy rain falling
driven by hard wind, throughout the
game and consequently both teams
were at disadvantage and had little
chance to show what they might have
done. jamestown scored in the frs,
quarter and then was held until the
last two minutes Of play when an I'm.
fortunate kick due. to the numbing
rain and wet ball gave jamestown the
ball within five yards of the goal. A
return game will be played later in
the season.
II the high school will support the
game and II the athletic fund RECEIVERS
