HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.


President-Frank Raab.
Vice-Pres.-Otto Eggebrecht.
Secfetary-Madeline Komers.
Treasurer-Margaret Laut.
Miss Selma Pagenkopf was visitor
at the high school Monday.
Miss Annie Sole has returned to
the high school to take post gradu-
ate course. She was a graduate of
last year.
In the Industrial school IS boys
have been enrolled for the coming
year. There are at present 80 girls
and the number of scholars is increas-
ing.
The new corporation, Carl Goerling,
John Manson and Hobart Edmonds,
gave their initial dance last Friday
evening at the Wausau club. The
boys will give another dance in about
three weeks and as this will be their
second, good crowd ought to turn
out.
A meeting of the Lincoln Debating
society was held at the high school
last Wednesday evening for the pur-
pose of electing officers and enrolling
new members for the coming year.
The following officers were elected
Otter all those wishing to become
members had enrolled.
President-Albert Mohr.
Vice-Pres.-Ju Young.
Treas. Frank Rowley.
Eugene Thayer.
| Sergeant A rms-Alfred Crandall
Councillors for the Messrs.
Goodrich and Snyder The society ex-
poets, so we understand, to hold week
lily meetings after short time Ex-
temporaneous debates are much
favored and may be used on questions
of local interest. 1t is thought that
if questions of local interest were
used the members of the society
would attend the meetings regularly
and take an interest in its meetings.
last Friday afternoon an half hour
was given over to foot ball talks given
by Rev. 0. d. Briggs and Messrs. S.
| B. Tobey and Ira c.. Painter. In
preparation for the coming season
the meeting of all the pupils in the
assembly hall served as a starter.
Rev. Briggs gave splendid talk in
which he urged that there be no
backing out, saying that to win the
team needed the support of the team
and that everybody should turn out.
He gave a splendid Interpretation of
a foot ball player, bashful of course,
who was called upon to say few
words to the school. He showed how
the players words were uttered or
rather mumbled so that it took
pretty close attention to understand
what the player meant, and said
Rev. Briggs, SIN my younger days
would have felt well pleased with
myself had been able to stand before
an audience with the ease with
| which | stand before you now. S.
B. Tobey said he hoped that there
would be no calling on the sideline of
sob, you old lubber, or something
similar. Ira G. Painter summed the
rules up to which a foot ball player
must observe and we can realize how
much some of cur high school young
men are giving up for the school
when it comes to eating, sleeping,
drinking, smoking, etc. 1t takes a
pretty good boy to size up to the
standard set by the international
Athletic association. The rules laid
down, if violated in any way, make
the contestant for place on the
team, ineligible.
Thursday afternoon L.Ie Junior
class elected the following officers for
the coming year:
President-Eugene B. Thayer.
Vice res.-Lawrence Smith.
Treasurer-Alice Tobey.
Secretary-Helen Curtis.
| On Saturday last quite number of
boys came to the high school grounds
to help set posts around the foot ball
field. Wire will be put all around
the field and this will be big benefit
to the fool ball players as the crowd
will not be able to gather on the
field. 4o s
The first meeting of the Latin club
was held last Friday after school for
the purpose of organizing for the
coming year. Many freshman stu
dents have been enrolled in the Latin
course. On next Friday evening
these new Latin students will be
inflated into the club.
Miss Crane has enrolled the boys
and girls for the glee clubs which will
meet regularly this year
This is the fourth week of the
school term. Only two more weeks
remain before report cards will lee
given out.
Next Saturday afternoon the Toma-
hawk team win come to Wausau to
play on the high school campus. The
game, it is thought, will be of greater
interest than the one of last Saturday,
which the locals ran away with easily.
A big crowd ought to come out to see
tie Wausau team win.
