MAYVuLE NORMAL

Mr.. and Mrs. Fox are making prep
arations to leave Mayville on Thurs
day for Hubert, Mimi, where they will
spend about two weeks at the lakes
with Mr.. Fox's sister, Mrs Owen, at
their summer cottage. From there Mr..
Fox will go with Mrs. Owen to Mari
nette, Wis, for a short visit. AS was
said in former news notes, Mr.. Fox re-
signed his position in the normal
school to accept the position Of head
Of the department of English. in the
West division high schol in Milwaukee.
This is a better position and means an
advance to Mr.. Fox and one which his
friends congratulate him upon. While
the major part of his work will be
teaching English, yet much time will
be spent in supervision as there are
several teachers in the department all
Of whom will be directly responsible
to Mr.. Fox.
E. Lindaas purchased Mt. Fox's new
house the other day. This is a new
building and will make an elegant
home for the owenrs 1t is in a good
location and is conveniently arranged
with al modern conveniences.
The annual. summer school picnic
was held in the city park last Friday
evening. A picnic supper was served
by the school and a fee charged for all
who are not boarding at the dormitory.
The park makes a delightful place for
such picnics and the supper was ex-
cellent. Therefore the occasion was
as pleasant as possible.
A week ago the auto owners of
Mayville treated the students of the
summer school to a twenty-mile ride in
the surrounding country. The stu
dents desire that these men learn how
much they appreciated this treat.
Some suggested that If two rides were
promised for next year they would
each bring back several other students
just on the strength of the rides. Such
thoughtfulness on the part of citizens
living in Mayville does add much to
the enjoyment of the young people
living at the school.
The pupils ofthe model rural school
were given a picnic by the normal
school on Monday afternoon. They ate
their supper in the city park and en-
joyed a delightful time, no small part
of which was the supper.
The school board of Kelso were
visitors at the normal the other day
inspecting the model rural school
buildin. They expressed great salts
faction with the plan Of this building
and decided to advertise for bids using
the plans and specifications of the
model rural Scnool Dullulng except that
their building is to be on a larger scale
1t is gratifying to the management OF
the state normal school at MayvilIe to
find so many who take the plans OF
the model rural school as a model.
