SCHOOL NOTES

Several pupils who have been absent on account of sickness re- turned to school on Monday.
 A Junior Red Cross is to be or ganized in the sct ool. One of the objects of the Junior Red Cross is to teach the children the history and work of the Red Cross, to teach patriotism and current history. As the Wran- sell Chapter has to report to headquarters about the organiza- of Junior Auxiliary, the school will not be able to complete it's organization until after the Christmas holidays.
 On Monday of this week the school began using cable time. By using this time school begins later in the morning than hereto fore and so has better light. The recesses have been shortened to five minutes each and school is excused at ten minutes past three instead of half past. The tWen- ty minutes lost by eXcusing early is made up by the shortening of the recesses.
 MT. Matheson last week pre-. sented the school with set of Encyclopedias which were great. ly needed and are much appreci- ated by the school.

 FROM WASHINGTON

Nicholas Nussbaumer writes the publisher of the Sentinel that he arrived in Washington, D. C., on Thanksgiving Day in time for a good turkey dinner. He says he found six inches of snow in Washington, and asks how much snow there was in Wrangell on Thanksgiving. Fol lowing is an excerpt from his letter:
 Some of my .boyhood friends are in my company, which of course makes it more pleasant for me than if l was wholly among strangers.
 My first disappointment is that l am not likely to have MT. Weigle for captain, but l am determined to make good no matter under whom 1 serve.
 ''I should be glad to. hear from old Wrangell. I have not heard one word from there since I left. ''In the best of spirits and with the kindest regards, remain,

Be Ready to Follow.

There are some who are always at
their best when they are allowed to
lead. If they occupy prominent po-
sition, If their decisions settle doubtful
questions, they are ready to work as
hard as anyone. But If someone else
is leader, their activities are confined
to criticism and faultfnding. 1t is a
good thing TO be ready to lead when
you are called TO leadership, but it is
most unfortunate not to know how to
take a secondary place, and do your
part.-Exchange.

Whitcomb High School to Lose Another
Principal Because Of War.

|
Mason w. Huse, acting as principal o.
Whitcomb high school since Principa
II. w. Haskins was called to the colors
early in the fall, has been notified to hole
himself in readiness to report at any
time within 10 days as clerk in the
quartermaster's department of the army
in which he enlisted soon after this coun.
try entered the war. Although it was
known when his services were secured
that he was subject to call at any time
his success as a principal has been so
great that widespread regret viii be felt
at his departure. The school board will
| fill the vacancy as soon as possible, sew
eral colleges and agencies having been
appealed to in the emergency some time
ago, but with very little encouragement
owing to the thinning of the ranks of
male teachers by enlistments or other
more attractive calls than that of the
7 school, Whitcomb high school never was
| more efficient nor more popular than now
and every effort will be made to main
tain the high standard of the present.
Acting Principal Huse is graduate of
Dartmouth college, taught last year in
the Hanover, N. H., high school and his
parents live at White River Junction.
