JULIUS CAESAR AT SCHOOL.
Latin Kultur Gets Boost When Name
of Roman Ruler is Found Upon
Freshman Roster.

Waterloo, Ia, Oct. with the
name of julius Caesar inscribed up
on the roster of the freshman class
there is no talk of disseminating the
study of Latin at West Waterloo High
school this year. Far be it from the
members of the faculty and the
board of education to deprive this L.
year-old youngster of the unique
privilege of reviewing his own pre-
natal commentaries written centur-
les ago.
Waterloo's julius Caeser is an
American. His parents have resided
here many years. His grandparents
came from Scotland and his English
ancestry has been traced back to the
reign of Queen Elizabeth by Judge
Purdue of Winnipeg, Can, who fur
Their discovered that the last known
ancestor of the local school boy came
to the British isles from Italy to con-
tinue the line of the Caesars.
julius is a bright student and has
been elected to represent his class on
the student council. Principal S. NJ.
Wallace remarked upon the fact that
at this time when Belgium has fig
ured so courageously in the war in
Europe that there should appear the
namesake of the man who wrote so
prophetically, "Fortissimi stunt Bel
gaze"
