Bruce Herald: We went down to
Brookings Saturday and the train was
met on arriving at the depot by some
three or four hundred hoboes and
squaws which was a good representa-
ton of the dirty tramps that are afraid
of taking a bath for fear it will injure
their health. They marched up town
led by the Bookings band where they
gave an exhibition at the corner neal
the National Bank.
The Press Club Of Brookings gave a
dinner to all visiting editors present,
some fifteen or twenty, in the school
building, where the visiting editors
were given a practical illustration of
how to serve a tip top dinner, in these
days of high priced food, for twenty
cents a pate, which was done by the
young ladies in the high school, and it
was a dinner good enough to be serv-
ed at a wedding.

NEW SCHOOL HOUSE DEDICATED

During the past summer and fall a
new school building has been erected
in District No. l, better known as the
Bitterness school. The new BUILDING
was accepted from the contractors by
the school board last week. The old
building. which in it's day served its
purpose well, was no longer adequate
and will be removed by the contractors
this week.
The new building Is modern in every
way. To begin with it is large and
warm, sunny and beautiful. Under the
whole is a large basement divided into
two rooms, n of which Is occupied
by the furnace which heats the build.

as a play room in bad weather. This
second room will also be used as a

lie and this year it was postponed as a
fitting celebration of the entrance into
their new hall, so that Friday night
the supper was served in the new
hall to about two hundred guests. The
ladies are always proud of their sup
per and outdid themselves this year.
Homemade candy and postal views of
the school buildings were sold by the
young ladies of the grange. After sup
per the school board joined the grange
in receiving the guests in the new
school room above. Here the monthly
lecturer presented a splendid program.
Mr.. Baldridge was the first to speak
and was very proud of this honor.
Miss Stedman also spoke, saying
among other things, that the school
was by far the best rural school
building in the county. Worthy Master
Faulkner spoke in behalf of the
grange. Marvin'Keck gave two pleas
ing trombone solos accompanied by
Miss Lydia Keck. The Misses Ian
phier and Beals of Bookings, gave
some fine readings and both respond
ed generously to hearty encores. The
principal speaker Of the evening was
Prof. Hutton of the State College, and
he gave a most interesting and valu-
able talk. With several songs by the
grange this completed the program
and an evening so pleasant and profit
able it will long be remembered by all
present.

Watertown Saturday News: Whether
the term Hobo Day" as applied to a
college celebration Is one wisely
chosen may be open to question.
For som years past it has been
the custom of the State Agricultural
College to attach this appellation to
the "doings" of the college on a given
day each year.
The students, in large numbers.
array themselves in suitable" gar
ments in keeping with the character
istics usually linked in the public
mind with the garb and department Of
the so-called hobo" and emulating the
supposed example of the Weary
Willies of the highways, they solicit"
edibles from the people of Brookings
and observe all the forms of the hobo
tourists in preparing their meals and
in consuming them.
Upon this OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES IA,
1914-the Hobo King" was crowned
with BETTING ceremony, and the hobo
band furnished the stimulating music
for the Indian dance that followed
the coronation.
1t was all very interesting, to say
the least, and the hobo" students and
the Indian maidens," arrayed in all
their finery, deported themselves as
gentlemen and gentlewomen, both on
the streets and on the campus where
the ceremonies took place.
But, as suggested in the beginning
whether some other term, more ap-
prOpriate for college students and
more dignifed college professors,
more edifying in the public mind than
Hobo Day." could not be utilized, or
invented" is a question which might
possibly be well considered by the
student body and the faculty.
But the days program was inter
esting throughout, as a representative
of the Saturday News is able person
ally to testify. The street parade in
the forenoon attracted a large assem-
blage of people-in fact, it was a gala
day for Brookings people and the col
lege.
At noon, the domestic science econ

did meal for twenty-five persons at a
cost of only 20 cents per plate. In
these days of the high cost of living
1t is gratifying to know that our edu-
cational institutions are so success
fully solving such practical problems.
The main feature of the day was
the football game between the State
College and the University of North
Dakota. This resulted in a victory for
the home team, though it was a hard
fought and holly contested struggle.
There must have been at least two
thousand spectators witnessing the
game and enthusiasm ran high during
the exciting moments when one side
or the other gained temporary advan-
tage or scored a point.
