 "Ah, studying voice? ?" Anna jerked shortly over her shoulder at Hilda- Grand opera-perhaps?
 We all saw the insult she meant the words to convey, and we waited to see what Hilda was going to say to it. But she didn't say a word, didn't even look at Anna, only she sent the full and rich words of the song throbbing through the room. Anna hesitated, gave her black head a shake and swept the music off the keys with a rush Hilda sang with such abandon that the high notes were sometimes harsh and uneven, but for the most part she gave a delicate shading and finish to every note, and she sent quivering InOuSn IL d Vitality anu d pulse mat quickened the song into a living thing.

Discipline or the kind which is ad- ruinfstered at West Point Is what is 1kely to put an effective stop to the dangerous practice Of haZing. Why those who participate therein should expect Co escape from the penalties f-escr5bed for such insubordination is hard to explain It is proper to an ticlpate that those who dance must pay the fiddler, and such Is the com mendabie position which Secretary Garrison takes when he reDukes the cadets of the military institution, who cnou being required to take their pun fshnent as any member of the insti- tuition who breaks the rule, wrote home asking their parents to intercede and hring influence and pressure of po- ligfcal nature to bear in their behalf
 It is because too much of that kind cr dodgiug the penalty has been car rled ora iu the past that cadets are SD willing to take the chances of being caught Hszins has no legitimate place at any educational institution, bur when lt is practiced with 8 fun know ledge of the penalty those who are caught should be prepared to take fhalr medicine.

CONSTRUCTIVE THINKING.

What is more ambitious, in fitting into the great task of rendering ser vice to mankind. than preparing ones eeIr ror constructive thinking and ser vice to the world rather than for the narrow purpose of personal gain It was mon this which President Had -4,- in his uafriculatiOn sermon at Yale --f7 rar+icuIar- stress in calling atten- +fa7 -o inc important duty which rest rd with the students 10 improve the inheritance and the opportunities which are theirs at the university.
 There was excellent advice which he offered. not only to the students r5fare him. but to all young men with Ike privileges. when he said: fhe --.aria service of Yale and colleges like Yale does not stop with the work of preparing men to fill political offlces' >-o- private emolument. but public use ruIne-s. not the gain 10 be made for ones self but the gain to be achieved for the commonwealth. this was the object in the minds of Yale founders and this has been the purpose Tn the hearts of generations of boys and men, Every one who uses his talents pr1- marf-y for other men and only second grfIr for himself, is a public servant. The honorable man of business who treats his work as trust renders pub 7f1 service. The scientific disCOVerer renders public service. The preacher who makes the church an influence in +ea life of the world renders public service. All constructive thought is public eervice-often uuappreciated, almost always underpaid, out worth many times more to the world than the things which bring money and rep utatior."
 President Hadley set mark worth striving for when it is realized that mans worth is measured by his ser vice to his fellow men rather than by his wealth.

Mr.. Cornell was a man with an ex-

word for every one. He made friends
wherever he went, and though cut
of in the prime of early manhood
his influence will be felt for years to
come by those whose pleasure 1t was
to know him in life. He was a man
In whose word confidence was placed
and whose daily life was above re-
proach or criticism. He leaves q
wife and one little son. The re-
mains were taken back to his old
home at Fisher JlIipoia whara tho
funeral was held and the remains

gan only two years. The family has

WHEELER.

Wheeler is one of the old towns
which has not fossilized with the
years but still gives evidence Of ell
terprise and hustle. A hotel has
been opened by George Cooper
which is getting fine patronage
and for which bran new, up-to-date
register has just been provided IN
which the leading business men each
have a card or an advertisement or
their business.
The Bank of Wheeler, which was
established in 1906 under the man
agement of Messrs. Johnston, Mead
and Mitchell, is a strong bulwark or
the town. The farmers are it's
chief customers and money is not
loaned to any stakeholder or officer
of the institution. Mr.. Henry G..
Mead is the vigilant cashier.
The Wheeler Hardware Co., form
ed by ID. N. Wilson and w. +. Brad
ford, use as their motto 1--WE Never
Sleep" They were burned out a
year ago but now occupy a new brick
building with a full line of farm i'm
plements and general hardware. Z.
j. Gazette e Co. do hustling gen.
eral store business in buying cream
and all kinds of produce for outside
markets. Mr.. William Folkert
meets the demand for dry goods,
shoes and groceries.
Mr.. G. I. Rich has a hardware
business established by eleven years
of patronage and makes a speciality
of pumps, gas pipes and plumbing
fixtures.

er of observation and a clear idea On
the part of the pupil. The original
work, that done without any assist
ance from the teacher or the aid of
models, was very interesting.
1t would be difficult to say tina,
any particular section of the exhibit
excelled. While some seemed to
be more attractive to the spectators
all were equally fine and received an
equal amount of praise. The teach
ers in the grades who were directly
responsible for the success of the ex.
hibit are to be congratulated upon
the high character of the work they
are doing while the board Is also to
be commended on its selection of
such we'll equipped core of teachers.
Within the next year the domestic
science department will be raised co
the same position as that of the man
ual training department. At present
this department has no head IN
structor. The work under the pres
ent system is conducted by the In
structors in the different grades.
This policy while carrying out the
idea of the domestic department to
certain degree can not do It with the
same results as WOULD occur II sep
arate teacher was employed for this
work. With view of making this
an attractive part of the school work
to the girls the board have decided
to hire a teacher who will have COM
plete control of all the work of this
department. The instructor has
been determined upon and will COM
mence her work at the opening Of
the fall term.

received as much inspection and fav-
orable criticism from the ladies as
the manual training work did from
the men. In fact it would be difficult
to state whether the domestic science
work or the manual training depart
ment excelled the other. 1t was both
equally we'll done. The sewing was
inclusive of the more fundamental
work of the art as well as the work
of an advanced nature. In the low
er grades examples Of different
stitches and the methods of sewing
were displayed while in the higher
grades the results of this prelimln-
airy instruction was exhibited. Arti-
cles in the form of wearing apparel,
embroidery and fancy work, and
others for use about the home COM
pleted this display of the exhibit.
The section of the exhibit repre-
senting the years work in the uraw-
ing department is deserving of es-
pecially high commentator. The
work of this department was a COM
plete exhibit in itself and great cred
1t is due the instructor who has had
so much to do with the development
Of this artistic temperament in the
grades. The display contained pieces
of free hand drawing water COL
ors, landscape sketches, map draw.
ing and crayon work. BY far the
most artistic and attractive of all the
work we're the landscapes. The free
hand drawing and the water colors
were very good but In landscape
work the children appeared to have
exceptional ability. In the matter Of
details, shading and arrangement

tended to set forth as we'll as the
results of the tool work. Pieces rep
resenting the fundamental principles
in wood cutting and the use of the
several different jointers were exhib-
tied along with the more advanced
work of the second year students In
finishing, etc. The tables, desks and
bookcases made by several of the
more skilled workmen attracted con-
siderable attention. These articles
were exceptional in every detail. The
jointing and putting together was
perfect while the finishing and pol
ishing was more typical of a master
mechanic than one just learning the
fundamentals of wood work.
While the accomplishments of the
boys were given a prominent part in

in sewing were not neglected and
