The storm of yesterday and last night was perhaps the most furious of sev- eral years and for a time travel, even on the city streets, was difficult in the
 extreme. Toward evening the town was literally buried under an avalanche of drifting snow so thick that at times
 the street lights were invisible a half block away Practically all business was suspended throughout the after noon and the merchants had some what unexpected half holiday owing 10 the absence of customers. As the blizzard increased toward nightfall 1t was only the yenturesome who ap- peared on the streets and at eight p. m. a wayfarer was a rarity. Long before midnight the drifts had become mountainous on the back streets and Nelated citizens living on the outskirts of town had no little difficulty In get ting home. It is reported that several neople became bewildered in the fly
 ing snow and wandered from their course to the degree that they were compelled to seek information as to their whereabouts. This morning prac- .ically all buildings on the north side
 If Front street were sheeted with
 -ating of white and huge drifts were filed up before the doors of the busi- ness houses. Although a number of people took to the trail yesterday all were able to reach shelter with the exception of the Fort Davis school cam which was lost while returning home.

Academy Notes

Last Friday the Theology per-
iod was set apart for separate
meetings, the boys meeting in
the gym and the girls in the
Study room. The church schools
believe that the teaching Of re-
ligion should be practical and
made applicable to present day
problems and it has always been
their policy to inculcate high
moral principles into their stu
dents. The purpose of these
separate meetings is to discuss
problems vitality affecting young
people of to-day, problems of
health, moral purity, the dance
etc.
Part of the time of the girls
meeting was set apart for the
organization of the Buff and
Blue Girls of the S. S. A."
Their representative has the fol-
lowing to say:
''The Buff and Blue Girls are
still alive. Although they have
had a long vacation, they haven t
lost their ambition nor forgotten
the purpose of their organization.
1t is their aim to awaken loyalty
to the school and it's ideals. They
intend to do a great deal of work
this winter by a sentiment for
good. This is not to be accom-
plished by the efforts Of the
president alone, neither b y
any individual girl. but by the
united efforts of all. :"
The following are the officers
of the Buff and Blue Girls"
Clara Rogers, president; Bertha
Ellsworth, vice president; Rose
Palmer, secretary.
