UNFURL FLAG WITH
APPROPRIATE CEREMONY


A blizzard out of doors did not
halt the flag raising at the library
yesterday afternoon, although the
arrangement had to be changed to
suit weather conditions. In the
presence of a large number of school
students and townspeople, the flag
was lowered from the dome to the
rotunda of the building. The Rev.
DR.. F. s. Blayney delivered an elo-
quent address upon subject fitted
to the occasion.
AS the flag was lowered, the
high school students led in singing
the "Star Spangled Banner" The
boy scouts led the salute to the
flag.
The flag is SKIS feet. Voluntary

went around town collecting money.
He had a letter from the secretary
OF state and . letter from the bish-
op OF HeIlsbaloo and he wanted the
funds ITO build a church in Asia"
The queer thing about II was that
he got the money-he had about IS
on the list when he struck this Of
flee.
Why, men and brethren. whom
there are families In this town need
ing clothes and food. when there are
churches that need funds to pay
their running expenses, when there
are state homes for the care OF un-
fortunates to. which we... all pay
taxes. why should people allow
themselves to be worked for suckers
by travelling coliectorsY Two have
been here this week, They live at
first class hotels, work little and get
large percentage of the money
they collect. The country is full of
them. Some turn In the money they
collect; some keep It.
This town would be hundreds OF
dollars ahead every year If 1t would
absolutely refuse to. allow beggars
OF this sort on the townsite-be-
sides discouraging one OF the most
flagrant schemes now in existence
for making money without working.
Make q rule to turn down. every
collector for any ''home," church or
institution whatever outside OF
Dickinson county, unless the appeal
comes through your church. Let's
have some everyday horse sense
about this.
The next one who shows up call
the secretary of the Business Mems
association and see what will hap

Several weeks after the theologi-
cal seminary deal fell through, a
genuine idea pierced our inherent
dullness and be believed that a way
had at last been found for the dis
posal OF that $4,000 which had
been subscribed by the generous
citizens Of Abilene for securing the
school. There appeared before our
blinking eyes a vision of a. magni-
ficent addition to the high school,
completely equipped In the most
modern fashion. There was a de-
partment all fitted out with tools
and machinery for iron working, and
Just opposite 1t was model car
penter shop, containing electric
sdffvens saws and lathes. Next we
noticed the printing department,
where the students could print small
pamphlets and papers. There were
also several rooms containing fix
lures and equipment for CONNER
cial course, which would enable the
students to acquire modern business
methods without paying high tut
tions in other schools. Last, but not
least, was the physical culture de-
partment. This appeared as a fine,
large well-lighted. room with a
smooth hardwood floor and contain
ing all the apparatus with which
the young people like to timber up
their cramped limbs after dday OF
concentration upon things intellect
ual. While all this appeared as but
a fitting shadow, yet we have I'M
plicit faith and confidence in our
fellow townsmen, that because of
the great necessity, they will not
spare their efforts to materialize
this fanciful vision. &

HIGH , SCHOOL NOTES

The basketball game yesterday
afternoon between the sophomore
boys and Garfield boys was won by
the high school team. The score
was 40 to 80. For the sophs, Oak
man starred in goal shooting, hav-
ing found the basket for ten field
goals. Mullin also performed well
in finding the basket and especially
80 In floor work. Chase worked
we'll for the Garfield. Wheeler and
Sleeper, referees.
Some excitement was caused be-
tween halves wnen smoke was seen
issuing forth from a crevice over
the girls dressing room. Upon ex-
animation It was found that an old
rag had been placed too near a
stove pipe. Considerable damage
might have been caused had 1t not
been discovered.
The orchestra is spending the
time very profitably. Practices are
held twice week. Everyone en-
joys the music, including the fac
ulty. Students who are in the
building during practice are caused
to step lively and some even execute
rag which usually disappears into
sober walk when one of the
powers" is seen.' A suspicious foot
swinging to the music is the near
est approach, however, any one has
seen to any undue levity on the
part of the dignified faculty.

The three boys who entered the
manual training class the second
semester are: Byron Flippo, Ray
Baer and. Harvey Rohrer. They had
to begin. with the first of the course
and will probably finish it the first
half of next year. Most Of the other
boys have been. making cross-sec-
tional drawings of their tools this
week, while few of them are still
working on their furniture. The
teacher, Prof NJ d. Collins, vut out
samples of all the different kinds of
wood, and placed them on the wall.
They were either oiled or waxed, or
both.
The physics instructor, Prof. G.
A. Anderson, has been spending his
spare moments with the boys, in
making a case for his physics labor
atory apparatus. He just received a
large shipment of fine apparatus and
having no place for it, the only
thing to do was to get busy and

about 1890 in the morning. would
