Regular attendance at the school at
present is 1875 pupils and students.
Of these 81 are high school students.
The premium money for the win
ners of the school has at last been re-
ceived. The general prizes amounted
to $76.1O; the boys corn contest
prizes to $85; the pig contest prizes
to 81, making total for the school
of $168.1O. This is a good showing
for our school, and is relatively more
than was received last year.
The Monarch Hardware Co. have
literally offered to let the district
have all the furniture, electric light
ing equipment and furnishings for the
teachers home at strict wholesale
prices. This should be recognized
as saving of large sum of money
to the district. Mr.. Maanum, clerk,
was one of the hardest workers for
the proposition.
Last Sunday evening the whole
teaching staff of the Alberta school
was most pleasantly entertained by
MIR. and Mrs. L. M. Larson at their
home. The turkey was prepared and
served a la Larson, which style is
well known to culinary critics. The
teachers had an extremely pleasant
time. Rev. Thornell was also pre-

presence and his wit. a. q RI

peared on the scenes. In some way
the news had leaked out that GER
tain young man from the northern

with them one of the latest type rae

the young man to the heart of the

a car and had it in all readiness be-

". with the highest respect for your
great grandmother, it was no trick at
all to be a frugal housewife in this
town eighty-odd years ago. There is
hint, for example, that "sweetbreads
may be bought for six or eight cents"
although the butcher, crafty tradesman,
had habit of "reserving it for his own
USE" AS for beef (again reading over
your great-grandmother's shoulder)
"the chuck is very good piece for
roasting; and it is cheap, being from
four to five cents a pound" Indeed, as
before more than intimated, there was
no end to the catalogue of cheapness

your great-grandmother, so she reads

indeed?
