HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Florerce McCook, Editor-in-Chief

Friday evening, at 1880 an ex-
temporaneous speaking contest will
be held in the high school assembly
room. The subjects for the speeches
$3.50 that afternoon, and they will
have from then until time for the
contest that evening to prepare
these speeches. This is a new idea
in high school, never having been
attempted before this year, but as
they have been having such work
in the Public Speaking class, it is
hoped that this may be very good
program. Music will be furnished
by the Glee clubs. No admission
fee is to be charged for this Pro-
gram.
The Senior United States History
class took their Semester examina-
ton last Friday morning.
Many of the pupils were. absent
the latter part of last week taking
the Normal Training examinations.
The next Inter-Society debate will
be between the Roberts and Dolli-
yer societies. This will be the last
debate this year, and will decide
which society will hold the cham
pionship for the year. The ques-
ton for this debate is: Resolved,
that the true solution of the trust
problem lies in the direction Of
combination rather in the breaking
up of combination, and restoring Of
competition The Dolliver socie-
IL, represented by Paul Rrown, Ira
Melaas and Harlan Church will up
hold the Negative, while the Roberts
society, represented by Gertrude
Kessel, Charlotte Melvold and Flor
erce McCook will uphold the affirm
alive.
Do not forget to come out to the
extemporaneOus speaking contest
Friday evening, Feb. 18th. It is free.
The Normal Training examina-
tons that were held last week were
more difficult than usual. The pu-
pills were given very thorough prep
aration for these examinations, and
so they do not anticipate failing.
Work on the new building is
again under way, and it is hoped
that from now on progress will not
be interrupted.

seeing the need of such an institution
has started a campaign to purchase

ton, but it is to be started and Or
gained under a non-sectarian sys-
tenn.
Mrs. Blair believes the property of
the Idaho Sanitarium ideal for such
home. The sanitarium proper is a
brick building with % rooms and 10
lots go with it at the price. In addi-
ton DIR. Mary Donaldson, after the
purchase price is paid to her for the
property, agrees to give $1,000 toward
the home as a gift.

to retire to private, quiet life and are
therefore willing to sell the property

BRITISH GOVERNMENT MAY
BUY THEIR HORSES HERE

c. H. Turner, of Turner & Haley,
brought in carload of horses from
the Succor Creek country Wednes-
day for the government inspection
which was to have taken place this
week, but has been postponed until
the first of next week.
Mr.. Turner is just completing an
arrangement with the British Govern
ment to establish an inspection point
here for horses. The British govern
ment does not require as ''breedy' a
horse as Uncle Sam. They will &C
cept horses lighter in color and any
good stocky animal FIVE years and
older, of fairly good lines, stands a
good chance for acceptance.
This will make Caldwell very
much better horse market and will
add considerable impetus to the bust
ness.
