Ostrich Drove Stampedes
Causing Death of Woman.

Ell Paso, Texas, Nov. 10 SIAM
pede in drove Of long-legged os-
triches caused panic in southern
Arizona yesterday, and resulted in
number of rnnaways and the death
of Mrs. John Adams, a resident of
the Salt River Valley.
The ostriches were fenced in big
runway when they became frightened
by an automobile with its muffler cut
out. The leaders ducked their heads
and ran with wings extended as if
trying to fly. This was the signal
for general stampede.
Cowboys from the neighboring
ranches were enlisted in the efforts
to round up the birds, but only sue
ceeded in making them run faster,
understanding the riders by many
yards.
Mrs. Adams horse became fright
ened and ran away. She was thrown
from her vehicle and killed. The
ostriches finally were stopped by
barbed wire fence.

Senior Notes.
We have bad four happy days for re-
adjustment and chance to breathe in
freedom. theoretically, we should
have come back to school enthusiastic
ally seeking work with which to en-
ploy our freshened aspiring minds. Well
we found the work all right, stacks of
it, all just piled up and waiting for US
but our minds somehow weren't so
fresh as they night be, neither did
they reach out for knowledge as the
"flowerlet for dew" Monday is pecu-
liarly susceptible to blues anyhow, but
Monday after holiday -
. The next Thursday is story telling
day wonderful accounts of Little Red
Riding Hood, the Three Bears and 9TH
or unknown characters are waiting to
be told to the little folks of the second
grades.
The members of the American His
tory class owe Mrs. Hill a vote of un-
diving gratitude tor assigning no les
sons for Monday. 1t is custom of
hers never to assign lesson after
holiday, and we find it in our hearts to
wish the other teachers would adopt
the same plan. Instead of lesson we
had forty-fve minutes crowded with
the very best fragments of the St. Joe
lectures. Those little class lectures are
surely a part of our education. There
are lectures and lectures, however,
some are most enjoyable as well as in
Others, well we call them
curtain lectures because we always
want to draw the curtain-''L'A lero"
was preceded by curtain lecture in
English class last Tuesday, but we
won't mention that, please.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The teachers all left us last Thursday
and Friday to attend the state Teach
er's Associatio so we had vacation.
Out of town pupils had chance to Wis.,
it at home and in town pupils chance
to visit away from home. So you see
it was very enjoyable all around. Some
of the teachers very kindly took part
of their Monday recitation periods to
tell us interesting things which they
saw and heard in St. Joseph.
"a Domestic Science Club" how
does that sound? But it is more than
sound By next week it will be a
real working organization. Miss Faux
ner, anxious to do more for the High
School girls than she is already doing,
will on next Tuesday organize Do
nestle Science Club. All the girls who
want to learn the useful arts of cook
ing and making correct menus, of plain
sewing, embroidery, crochet and so on
will be welcome in this club. 1t will
meet once week. Altho there is no
apparatus in the. school, we will do
hand sewing and after studying re-
ceipts, menus and best methods of
cooking things there will be meetings
at the homes of the girls to try out
some of the things. Then look out for
dinner parties and dainty luncheons.
Miss Faulkner has had a special course
in domestic science and is we'll able to
instruct. She does this with no fee or
reward except the hearty gratitude Of
the girls and the knowledge that she is
accomplishing something worth while
to them, believing also that this move
ment will hasten the day when full
course of domestic science will be a
part Of this school.
Two orders of new books have been
received and are in the library ready
for use. Seventy-nine books on Eng
fish, Agriculture, Teacher Training SUBJ
jects, etc., are there besides large
dictionary for the English room. A
good High School without a library is
an impossibility, therefore we are try
ing to make ours better every year.
Also considerable new apparatus for
the chemistry laboratory was received
last week.
A closed session of the Delta Kappa !
literary society will be next Friday.
Only members of the society are al
lowed to be present. They have post
ed an excellent program so watch for
their open session.

brain, and soothe our disjointed nerves.
Quite kind, I'm sure.
