News Notes

The Fort Hays Kansas Normal School
Truckers Association met last week
and held their drawing for plots of
ground for gardening. Fifty one boys
were in the drawing and there were lots
for thirty so that twenty one drew
blanks. The work of gardening will be
under the supervision of the Agricultur-
al Department and the selling of the
crops will be under the direction of the
Mathematics Department. The gar
dens will be irrigated and each boy pays
a certain rental on the land 1t is
thought that a student can make enough
on half acre plot to pay most or all of
his expenses for a school year.
The History Department is getting
returns from its History of Western
Kansas efforts. Several valuable con-
tributions have already been made in
the way of old books, pictures and ac-
counts of the early days.
The lantern-slide making department
has thus far made something like five
hundred slides of various subjects and
lines of work. The students In the
science departments are learning to
make LANTERN slides so that as school
teachers they canmake their own slides.
Stereopticons are coming into abundant
use IN the school room and the students
who go out to teach, knowing how to
use the lantern and how to make the
slides. viii have valuable equipment for
efficiency.

THE TWO D1PPERS AND HOW TO FIND THEM.
Taking it for granted that everyone
knows where to find the Big Dipper, we
will take it as a basis for observations.
If one looks, one will find that the two
stars forming the cup of the big dipper,
the ones at the end, point almost direct
ly to rather bright star. This is the
North Star. With the North Star as
nail on which the Little Dipper swings
and also the first star in the handle of
the Little Dipper.. If one looks at
about nine O clock, one will find that the
Little Dipper hangs downward and
little to the East of the North Star
This is not perfect dipper like the big
one for the handle connects with the
lower part of the bowl instead of the
upper part. This is the true Little Dip
per although many people mistake
other consultations for it. The Dip
pers are only a part of the consultations
known as the Big and Little Bears.
THE STORY OF THE BIG AND LITTLE BEARS
Callisto, maiden beloved by Jupiter,
God of the Heavens, excited the jeal-
ousy of Juno, Goddess of the Heavens,
who changed her into a bear and she
had to roam the forest afraid of both
man and beast. One day a hunter
came into the forest and Callisto, recog-
nizing him as her son, rushed to en-
brace him; but he raised his bow and
arrow and would have slain her had not
Jupiter taken pity on them both and
transplanted them to the heavens as
consultations. Juno, enraged at this,
went to her foster parents, Tethys and
Oceanus, and complained to them and
begged them not to let the. guilty couple
come into their waters. The old couple
consented and consequently the two con-
stellations move round and round in the
neighborhood of thepole but never sink,
as do the other stars, beneath the
Ocean.

The ''bad man" of the west is a per-
sonage of the past. He belonged to
the frontier days. While he would de-
fend his 'fcode of honors,' get drunk,
Shoot up the town, cut ''notches'' on
his gun stock indicating the number he
had killed, but according to the rough
social laws of the ragged edge of that
Grass civilization, men who knew this
"bad man" of those early days would
now consider him a gentleman when
comparing him with the rough necks, -
"the FOUNDERS" and brutal bruisers'
of the cultured east of today. Back
east it is an easy manner to see SNUG
looking men who are free-lovers,
atheists, anarchists, bankrupts, and
human riffraffs, who are thousand
times worse than the bad man" of the
west The western man has past, the
eastern is an ever growing menace.

The wage Garner is the most bene-
fetal man in society. He is made to
bear the burdens of civilization. He
works longer hours, receive a less wage,
is made to feel the change of the mar

sooner, fights the nations battles hard

him, expected of him, and we give to
him less support and appreciation than
