school; fathers are hustling for thei'
shoes, and bread and butter; the chill
dren and teachers are looking for
ward, some with Joy and some witt
dread, for the opening of school, and
so the different seasons continue to

terests that are equally new every
year.
The following teachers are engaged
at the high school: Miss IRE, of Sal,

Miss IRE is located with Mrs. Marie

tainly a treat. The piano solo by Mr..
Peterson was very fine and showed
up to great advantage. Mr.. Olson
and Hanson Brothers vocal as well
as instrumental selections were great
and we just wished we could enjoy
them little oftener. Our home tai
ent did exceptionally well. AS ever.
Mr.. ,Omer's cornet selections were
highly appreciated. and the chorus
girls were not encored just to pass
the time away. Had the recitals by
Lenora Merrill and Aldine Burnham
been a contest, surely they would
both have taken the first prize. Pres.

All Got a "Squar" Neal

The writer, through the cOur-
tesy of Bishop John Hunt, got a
ride Monday to Daggs reservoir
dam to take in the Dedication ex-
ercises. After the exercises
lunch was spread under the cedar
trees by the good ladies, all of
whom brought heap plenty.
We got an invitation to eat with
the Hunt folks, some fifteen or
twenty in number, besides there
were invited guests. We want
to say right here that when it
comes to eating we re there every
time-if we can find the chuck"
and get IBID. /" But we were
not alone in the eating line. For
instance, we might casually men,
tion H. S. Frady, of Texas, who
wasa guest at our table. /" Now,
we have been informed that
down in Texas the people eat
once in while, but from the way
Mr.. Frady went after that grub
/ don't think he had been eating
that often. | looked every mo-
ment to see Lewis Hunt (no
doubt he was jealous, as he's
some on the eats himself) rope
Mr.. F. and tie him up to a cedar
sapling. 1--WE were sorter uneasy
of Lewis getting us, too.) In
the meantime, j. M. Flake, after
eating at all the other places in
camp, came to our Spread and
tried to ''gobble up" everything
in sight, but he didn't. Anyway,
if the kind ladies hadn't had
more than plenty, we'd have all
gone away hungry.
