Ladies of Grover Aid Work Of Schools
The Domestic Science class of the
Grover School, Grover, Colo, gave m
exhibit and lunch a. the closing event
of the years work in domestic science.
The class has been taught by q number
of ladies in town and the results as
shown in the exhibit are very encour-
aging. The plan used jn the Grover
School is a. follows:
Several ladies who were known to be
skillful In certain lines of cookery, were
asked to give lessons in the lines in
which they excelIed. The girls taking
the work are excused at 3:3O and 60 to
the home of the instructor on the after
noon set for the lesson. The instructor
first gives talk on the article, giving
the recipe and suggestions concerning
its preparation, all of which is taken
down in notebooks by the students.
The article is then prepared and cooked
in the presence of the class. The girls
carefully try the recipe at home with
the aid Of their mothers. until they be-
come proficient. They then take 4
sample of the finished product, which
has been prepared without aid from
anyone, to the instructor.
A record is kept by the school on
filing cards covering each article signed
by the mother and instructor. The
course consists of twenty common
articles of food to be covered in two
years, for which one credit point is
given.
Some Of the advantages of the sys-
tenn are: Recognition of the cultural
value of domestic science; utilizing the
knowledge and skill of practical house,
keepers of the community; bringing
high school girls into friendly associa-
tion with real home-makers; giving
these girls frequent opportunities of
seeing and noting the arrangements of
many home interiors from kitchen to
parlor; seeing the most respected and
influential ladies engaged in culinary
operations; doing all the work in real
home with home surroundings and en-
vironment; placing honor upon toll in
the home; giving recognition to the
work on the records Of the school. &C.

Carl H.worth Pays His Wager

Years ago when Carl Haworth and
Earl Quackenbush were mere boys,
they made wager concerning which Of
them would get married first. And it
was agreed that which ever one entered
the bounds Of matrimony first was to
serve the other with an oyster stew.
Last summer both the boys attained
their majority and filed on homesteads
within the same week. But batehing
didn't appeal to Carl. 20 during the
Christmas holidays, he secured . fine
little housekeeper; and about six weeks
ago, Earl followed suit by winning \
June bride. On Thursday evening,
Carl and his help-mate paid the wager
with not only An oyster supper. but also
with dinner of fried chicken, ice
cream, and other good things. Besides
the two married-msn and their wives.
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Quackenbush sat
at the table nicely spread for six.

FROM MR.. AND MRS. JACKSON

Greetinss from Boreas Pass to Keota
Friends:
AZ we cannot write each Of you indi-
viduaily on account of the post Office
being nine miles from US and its re-
quiring 20 many stamps and so much
stationery, and assuming that some of
you, at least, would be glad to hear
from us. we thought we would drop you
. few lines thru the News, thus help
ing out the editor, and profiting our
selves by writing to all of our friends in
one, for we have you all in mind while
writing this.
However, there is nothing much to
write about up here but the weather
and scenery-not as.many people AZ you
have thers-so III say q word or two
about the weather. 1t has been glor-
ious ever since we have been here.
pleasant during the day and cool at
night. But there came a cold rain and
snow today, the Fourth. and Mr..
jackson got cold feet getting wood, and
filling up the boiler and tub with water
to wash with while our little spring
fsom the mountain side was running SO
freely. 1t has been little weak the
last few days but it is the finest water
in the world cold and soft-and there
are plenty more such streams if it gives
out. tho not right at the door. And
how wish you had carload, or at
least an arm-ioad. each Of the wood
that is going to waste all around US.
We spent yesterday afternoon piiing up
brush and failen wood and burning it so
the snow won't catch and. bank near the
shaft-house at the mine next winter.
1t seemed almost sinful to burn it, but
it had to be gotten out Of the way and
we couldnt get it to you.
said there were not many people
hare. We have some next-door neigh.
bors, just like in town, but they are
Italians and don't speak much English
30 we can't talk very we'll. and have no
other neighboss to talk about If we
could. They live In the .seetion-h house.
There are also COW men, prospectors
and mining men passing back and forth
and blasting equal to the Germans
guns in every direction. The sheep
men too will soon have their sheep
scattered over the mountains, as this is
q forest reserve and b LEAKED from the
government by the stockmen. the sheep
grazing above timber-line and the cat
tie below.
Then we have two passenger trains a
day-just the same as you-and q
freight that is the busiest thing in the
country. It has to bring part of its
load to the top Of the range-that il
here-and 60 back after the rest, and
most always two engines working to
the top Of the hill.
A6dlast, but the greatest Of all, are
the grand, wonderful mountains which
we never tire Of looking at with their
beautiful trees and flowers that bloom
even among the snow and ice.
Mr.. Jackson was afraid l couldn' I
stand the altitude here, but says can
climb like mountain sheep. And we
have done some wonderful climbing,
and have more planned.

0. B. U. AND DE SOTO ATHLETIC
CLUB BATTLE TO TIE

Immediately after the Pennington
Perryville game, the Ozark Business
University and the DeSoto Athletic
Club tangled up in a real "go-in-and-
get-'em" game. Both teams at times
developed strong offense, but could
not carry it far enough to score.
Most of the play, however, was in
DeSoto's territory, and on two occa-
sions the Ozark boys had opportuni-
ties to cross the line, but couldn't find
the necessary punch. The University
boys had several "old-heads" in their
lineup, and they played up to stand
ard but we want to say right here
that DeSoto had some players who
were not youngsters at the game, es
pecially their two half-backs, Son and
Brown, and their red-headed quarter
back. To watch big Bill Springer
performing at right tackle for Ozark
brought one back to the old days Of
1908, when Springer performed in
the same position for the Carleton
team. Bill certainly is there, and
when DeSoto attempted to run any
thing through him, they found the
nothing doing" sign waiting for
them.
1t was q treat to watch Dutch Wich-
man and Smiley" 0rten tackle
whenever they hit a runner, he just
naturally ''swapped ends" Smith
and McClintock, at half-backs, played
hard, fast game, McClintock running
punts back in great shape. Murrill
and Keith, at ends, were always in the
play and covered punts like veterans.
The Remainder of the line, while nat
urally not as much in evidence as the
bacl-field men and ends, were in the
game all the time and took good care
of their places. Dobbins went into
the game along towards the close, and
was there with both feet. The Ozark
boys. with little more team work,
will be dangerous opponent, and we
will take off our hats to the team that
defeats than.

GIRLS BASKET BALL

The Bismarck and Pennington High
School girls played their first game
of the schedule on the Pennington
court on Saturday night before good
crowd. Pennington won by the score
of Ia to 8. The Pennington girls sue
ceeded in making six field goals, while
Bismarck found the hoop for but two
They were more lucky, however, on
scoring from fouls for they made four
out of six trials, while Pennington
made none out Of three trials. The
Pennington girls played a consistent
game throughout, but showed some
weakness on scoring when given
chances by their centers. The next
game of basket ball will be with
Fredericktown on Friday or Saturday
night, notice of which will be given
in due time.

SOCIETY
OPENING A SUCCESS

The first meeting of the 1867
season of the Pennington Literary So
ciety last Friday night was success
full in every way. The immense crowd
attested the survival of a keen inter
est in this community enterprise, and
the program given was promise of
even better and more interesting meet
ings than in either of the former
years. 1t is gradually becoming I'M
derstood and appreciated BY the pub
lie that participation in these pro-
grams is a beneficial thing to those
who take part, meaning much in self
development and desirable training in
appearing before an audience. Form
erly it was apparent that a good many
people felt they were doing someone
favor by taking part in the pro-
grams. But this selfish spirit is rap
idly melting away, and the community
as whole getting the right view
point and giving that spirit of cheer
full cooperation which. brings real
reward to those who give it.
The next program is to be given on
October 9th, for which date the fol-
lowing program has been prepared:
IldHO oOlO--MiSS IleleH bIdNS5.
Reading-Miss Louise Lang
Violin Solo-Mrs. o. H. Duggins.
Duolog-Miss Lidora Guth and Geo.
Munsch.
Vocal Sextette-Six Girls, under d.
rection of Mrs. C. o. Nelson.
Flute Solo-Miss Alma Radle.
"Down in Dixie"-15 minutes of re-
fined minstrelsy, by the Megaphone
Melody Boys, under direction of
Chas. Francisco
The program committee will be
very grateful for suggestions from
anyone in regard to desirable numbers
for these programs. If you can do
something yourself. or a member Of
your family, or friend, or your pu-
pill or anyone you know has a number
prepared or soon will have, the COM
mittee will thank you for the name,
and it will be given immediate and
careful consideration for inclusion
with the next program or one soon to
be given. There is no occasion to be
'bashful" in proposing numbers for
these programs. 1t does not indicate
egotism nor forwardness. On the con-
trary it is real expression Of your
