numbers songs were sung by Mr..

On Friday, March II, the State In
Oratorical contest was
held at Superior, Wis. The recep-
ton rendered the visitors was fine.
Large delegations of students met
the trains and escorted the new ar
rivals to the hotels. Friday after
noon at 2 o'clock a big rally was
held. Speeches were made by repre-
sentatives of the different Normal
schools. The Milwaukee Glee club
and the Oshkosh Normal band gave
a few selections. Immediately after
the rally social dance was given for
the visitors. Of our representatives
at Superior we have a right to be
proud. M. Sanderson, state presi-
dent of the Oratorical association,
presided at the business meeting and
conducted the meeting like veter-
an. AS climax to Mr.. Sanderson's
good work as president came his
election to be one of the four state

Gets Three Miles Farther up
Mt. Hood Than Any
Other Car.
HAS TERRIFIC BATTLE
With Snow and Rests on Steep
Grade When Blizzard
Stops Climb.

The Paige Fairfield "Six-4G" which
won fame and silver sup for being
the first car of 1916 to reach Govern
ment Camp at the base Of Mount
Hood, Oregon, has acquired new hon
ors which far surpass the first After
winning the cup, the Paige proceeded
up the difficult and trcacherous side
Of tn mountain in an effort to make
a mountain climbing record that
would be nothing less than sensa-
tional and it succeeded in shattering
all records to such an extent that it
is freely predicted its achievement
. will remain unapproached for all
time.
The Paige, frequently referred to
as the Rocky Mountain Goat, or
the alpine Marvel" battered its way
through the snow and up the terrific
grades and reached the highest point
ever attained, getting three miles be-
yond where any other car had ever
Z reached and at least three quarters
of a mile beyond the timber line. NO
car had ever before come within two
miles of the timber line.
Before it turned back the Paige,
resting on a grade of fifty per cent
was at an altitude Of $500 foot
which in view OF the extraordinary
difficulties of Mount Hood, a fayorIte
of the devotees OF mountain climbing,
was far beyond anything that was
considered possible by those who un-
derstood tho nature Of the task ana
remembered the failure Of others VINO
had made similar attempts.
Cold figures give no idea of the
amazing nature OF the achievement or
Of the adventures of the car and crew.
As n matter Of fact the climb Of the
mountain by the Paige-an under
taking that took one month of the
hardest kind of labor for men ana
machine-Glled the western papers
with stories and Iettcrs to the edi-

There are stains upon her honor;
There is blood upon her hand;
There's spell from hell upon her
Just across the Rio Grandc.
Like harlot, mad from drinking
She's self-consuming brand,
While the world Is grimly thinking
or the blood upon her hand.
While protesting Don and Peon
With their groans have rent the
sky,
During each succeeding con,
She has laughed to see them die!
Like field by murder maddened
She had flouted Gods command
While humanity is saddened
By the blood upon her hand.
She has fouled her fair dominions,
Dragged her blrthrigbt in the mud,
While the vultures preen their PIN
ions,
Gorged upon her chIldren's blood.
Thus to us task Is meted
BY Omnlpotent command,
And the task must be completed
For there's blood upon her hand!
