A Mistaken View

The Pensacola Journal and other

it. The Herald does not believe 1t to

To Drill Wells for Irritation.

ALLIANCE, Neb., Sept. 25.-(special)-
A special committee from the Alliance
Commercial club met with the county
commissioners Wednesday, asking their
cooperation in promoting the sinking Of
some wells for irrigation purposes. Water
is now found at a depth Of from fourteen
10 thirty-fiye feet, which has been suffi
cient for stock purposes, but up to date
these wells have not been tried out for
irrigation purposes. The commissioners
agreed to drill at least three wells. and,
if they produced 5000 gallons I'm ten
hours pumping, the farmer was to pay
all expenses, and II they did not produce
that much water the county is to pay
half the expenses. c. \. Newberry, the
hardware merchant, has agreed 10 furnish
all the piping and other material free to
the farmers for this experiment.

THE object Of the great proportion Of
artillery the Germans employ is 10 beat
down the resistance Of their enemy by
concentrated and prolonged fire, TO shat

fore the infantry attack is launched. They
seem TO have relied on doing this with

has taken them several costly expert
ments TO discover this fact.

pears that they have been greatly dlsap-

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Doris Wyatt, one of the shining
lights of the Sophmores entertained
the students last Thursday with vivid
narration of her Florida trip. Attic it
was Miss Doris 8 maiden speech" she
seemed not whit embarrassed and
gave splendid account of her travels.
If perchance you should notice figures
creeping over the High School lawn mi
croscope in hand, do not be needlessly
alarmed, for it is not detectives track
ing footpads, but is only the Agricul-
ture class, peacefully questing for young
grass. A few adventurous young
sprouts hove boldly into sight Monday,
and Thanksgiving was Immediately
proclaimed.
The older students are glad to notice
the large number of Freshmen who are
striving to become Honor Roll students
and only hope that they may be able to
keep it as their goal throughout the
four years of their High School life.
The requirements for place on the
Hoi1or Roll are that the student have
no failure marked against him for any
term, and that there be majority of
Els out of the possible g..
Some of the Freshmen who so far
have met all requirements satisfactory
ly are Luna Kinney, Kathleen Church
and Carrie Harper. The work of Luna
Kinney has been especially good. She
received E in all her four subjects for
each term. Her lowest grade is 81.
FRESHMEN NOTES.
The first of the last quarter! In a
short time many of US. at least, will be
no longer Freshmen. But in passing
from the Freshman year, as we hope to
do, we have one deep and abiding re-
greet. We must become soft Sophmores!
But at least, we will be far superior to
the Sophs Of, this year. 4--=

The Chemistry class is now taking
up the most interesting part of their
year work, the making of compounds.
Each member of the class has collec-
ton of wee bottles, in which to store
his precious compounds.
Prof. Coonrod has solemnly sworn to
exhibit the best collection of specimens
and the best experiment note book at
the Fair next fall. So we must work.
SENIOR NOTES.
Inasmuch as the music department is
part of the teachers training course, it
is fitting that the members of the class
should have some experience in teach
ing music. Therefore the decree has
gone forth that each member of the
music class shall be instructors for one
day. The lessons are to begin with
rote singing and are to take down to
part songs. The first lesson, rote sing
ing came on Monday and was in charge
of Resale Funk, first division) and
Margie Greenup (second division.)
After school Monday evening the mu-
sic classes visited Miss Shepard,s room
at the north school building to observe
her method of teaching rote singing.
The Physics class made an expedition
to the railroad tracks Monday morning
to experiment on the velocity of sound.
It would have been quite lark if the
day had not been so rainy.
There will be three girls on the Hon
or Roll this year-Selma Gench, Merle
Adair and Helen Cook.
