1T AYANA is the capital of Cuba
and the middle name of all good
cigars.
Nowadays Havana does not overbal-
ance the globe by its size and impOT-
lance, but a hundred years ago it was
as big as anything on this hemisphere.
Havana people put on airs when they
visited New York and Rio Janeiro and
said Nice little city you have here
with impunity, and the harbOr OF the
city was filled with ships from all the
world. Havana has grown ever since,
but has got off the main line. 1t now
has 100000 people, and tourists visit
it for its qUaintness, not to see its
skyscrapeTs.
Havana is situated on the north side
of Cuba, within 100 miles Of freedom
and progress until 1898. when both the
above mentioned moved down and
scOOped it in. 1t is a beautiful one
story city, decorated with tropical
plants, colored stone and plaster homes
and bright costumes. 1t has drives and
alamedas around its harbor instead Of
wooden wharves, and its cathedTals
palaces and castles are large enough
to strike the tourist from this country
with considerable awe. For years the
most prominent resident of Havana was
Christopher Columbus, whose remains
Law in the cathedral, but he recently
succeeded in getting home to Spain after
almost 400 years of exile.
Havana was founded Just 400 years
AGO by the Spanish and has had as much
excitement as a rabbit in hunting sea-
son. For two centuries the faYOrte
amusement of warllke parties was to
come over and shoot up Havana, 1T was
besieqed bv buccaneers and French and
threatened BY Drake. In 1889 Spain
built Moro castle and these amuse-
ments ceased for a while.

NORMAL STUDENTS
TRAINED IN GYM
Physical Work Being En-
phasized at the Mayville
School This Year.

State Normal School, Mayville, Nd.
Nov. l6.-The work In physical edu-
cation for both men and women in the
school Is now on q better basis than
ever before. This is particularly true
of the work for men. A large part Of
work while never before was q man
employed as physical director. While
in the past the work In athletics has
been we'll handled by Mr.. Tharaldsen
who was able to produce winning
teams in spite Of tho fact that he had
full work In academic lines. there was
not time to devote to other forms Of
gymnasium work for the men in
school.
From now on It is the plan of the
school to pay particular attention to
physical education and perhaps less
TO the competitive games in athletics
With this in view, Mr.. Lehman has
Just completed his first series of an
thropometric measurements and has
tabulated the same. expecting to place
data from other series OF measure
ments upon the same blank for COM
parison.
Miss Zichy has been doing the same
for the women in school and 1t is ex-
pected that the last measurements to
be taken near the close Of the school
year will reveal gratifying result in
physical development.
Owing to the mild weather during
the entire fall there has been no in
side gymnasium work for the men
until this week. Tennis has been the
game enjoyed and much Of the work
for women has been on the tennis
courts too, but the men are now do
ing work on the side horse and the
mat and will begin preliminary prac-
tice in basketball next week.
Tho two handbsll courts in tho op-
en- gymnasium are much in use and
e u expected that this game will grow
IN popularity at Mayville.
Miss Olson attended the annual
meeting of tho state library associa-
tion Of which she is a member She
read paper which was very we'll re-
eotved and received much favorable
comment.
Mr.. Butterfield was again called
home on account of relapse in his
mothers illness.
Several Of the young women stu
dents attended the Y. w. c. A. con-
ference at Fargo and thoroughly en-
1oyed the interesting meetings.
