HIGH school, NOTES

Freshmen seemed quite the vogue
among the upper classes of high
school yesterday morning AT least
twenty or thirty Seniors and Juniors
had possessed themselves with a
freshie each. Young green ones were
preferred-and they paraded them
through the streets in the vicinity
OF the school. 1t was a mighty
parade. Each innocent young thing
carried a bunch of weeds to signify
their greenness. When the school
grounds were again reached the
young ones were forced to take off
the coverings of their pedal extremi-
ties and dance a barefoot dance upon
the dewy lawn. Just about this time
Claudia D. Jones, honorable assist
ant principal of the school awoke to
the fact that something unusual was
going on SO with a body guard, con-
sisting of Prof Michaels, Mr.. Stone
and Mr.. Gambee, swept down upon
the disturbers of the peace. The mob
dispersed but managed to carry away
about two thirds of the shoes that
the freshmen had so kindly parted
with
The upper classmen strolled calmly
to the cement park in front of the
auditorium where they deposited the
shoes in a heap. The freshmen, I'M

tempted to locate their respective
boots but the crowd was too great
to allow a comfortable sorting of
shoes so Mr.. Jones stood guard over
the tiny bootlets until a dray could
be obtained to take them to a less
conspicuous place. Just then the bell
rang and the excitement was over

WILSON WARNS U. S.
PRESIDENT SAYS THERE is A
FOOD SHORTAGE IN THE
WORLD.
AMERICA MUST FEED ALL
U-rc fiore Grain ne Planted and
Yield Per Acre Also Be increased
Address ade Before Business Men
of the Nation.

Washington, Feb. 5.-"There is
shortage of food in the world now.
That shortage will be more serious
few months from now than it is now.
1T is necessary that we should plant
a great deal more, 1t is necessary
that our land should yield more per
acre than it does now.
1T is necessary that there should
not be plow or spade idle In THIS
country if the world is to be fed"
In these words President Wilson ad-
dressed the people of the nation on
Wednesday night through several hun
dred representative business men at
tending the annual convention OF the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States.
The president declared that we
must all pool our interests" in order to
discover the best means of handling
public problems.
The creation in the United States in
time of peace of the same KIND OF
united spirit which moves nations dur
ing wars was advocated by the presi-
dent, who remarked that when peace
is as handsome as war there will be
no wars" and when men engage in
the pursuits of peace in the same
spirit of self-sacrifce as they engage
in war. wars win disappear"
Speaking of the foreign trade of the
United States the president asked that
business men devise some way of al
lowing exporters in the United States
to combine to secure common selling
agencies and to give longtime credits
in such a way that these cooperative
devices may be open to the use OF all.
He declared that apparently the
antitrust laws prohibited such combi-
nations now, but that he would favor
change if a method fair to all could
be found. He spoke of the work being
done by the bureau of foreign and do
mestic commerce in surveying the
world" for the benefit of all business
men.
Business men themselves are to
blame if intelligent laws affecting
them are not framed, the president
asserted. He added that they should
come out into the open and use their
knowledge of conditions to bring about
fair laws to prevent business evils.
The Mexican question was men
