There was a day when the meeting
Of freshmen and sophomores of tn,

other insignia of lowly state. were
frequent sights. while the soaking aid

day occurrence. And uny.eky was the
lonely soph who feL,nio the hands OF
the freshman Apng.
But in. thNe war like times things
harsv changed immensely. Now the
sophomores. instead of demonstrating
their superiority by physical power,
will be given an opportunity TO bring
to light the real or fancied inferiority
of the first-year students by the means
of wordy war. In other words, the
sophomore freshman debate, which will
be held at the high school during the
next two weeks. will replace the
ancient rough and ready battles be-
tween the first and second year
classes.
Plans for the commencement of the
hostilities between the two classes
have been completed by Lewis Shines,
In charge of debating at the high
school. On account of interest shown
by the members of the freshman ella SIS
in the debate, an elimination contest
will precede the interclass battle. Six
teen first year students have entered
this elimination contest, which will be
held at the high school next Wednes-
day afternoon at o'clock. From these
16 candidates 10 will be selected to up
hold the honors of the class. The rep
resentatives of the two classes will be
divided into five teams, with two on
each team, and each of these teams
VIII draw an opponent from the OPP
posing class. The class which wins the
majority of the five contests will be
the winner of the debate. While the
subject OF the debate has not been an
nounced as yet, il is probable that it
will concern the question Of the elm
ination of final examinations in the
high school work.

John Brechbil1

Wishes to have a straightfor-
ward talk with the voters Of Mis-.
souia and to tell them this:
"For the past two years. my
only term in office, have been
attending to my duties as a MEM
Der Of tho city council, and,
which is equally important, | have
been saving for the city the sum
Of $500 a year, or 5000 for the
period have been in office. This
have been able to accomplish by
acting as Street Commissioner and
giving personal supervision to the
work Of the street department and
by directing personally the expen-
diture Of the money appropriated
for this division Of civic activity.
"Now, this business of superb.
sion-and il must be done-caIIs
for virtually all Of one mans
time. As everybody familiar with
local conditions must know, | have
been going to work early and quit
ting late. The job Of street COM
missioner-call it that or street
foreman, or what you willis
worth $500 year and was pro-
vided for by ordinance and in the
eity's annual budgets at that fig.
ure.
1.-THE annual appropriation for
the fiscal year that is soon to be-
gin provides $500 for paying the
man who shall serve as city en-
gineer. This mans work keeps
him about half his time on out
side work and half his time in his
office at the City Hall.
"A Councilman can do the City
Engineers work 'or the work Of a
street commissioner or foreman,
BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR
ONE MAN TO BE COUNCIL
MAN, CITY, ENGINEER AND
STREET COMMISSIONER At
THE SAME TIME. The jobs don't
track; that is all there is to il.
have saved the city $500 a year
during my term by doing the work
as street commissioner as above
state which is all a councilman
could possibly save by serving as
city engineer. Eeither is a mans
job in itself.
"Now to my notion, the position
of street commissioner is more
important than that Of engineer,
for this reason: The man in
charge Of work on the streets is
the man who spends the annual
appropriation for that purpose;
this year Il is 5000 and while the
appropriation is $1,000 less than
last year, I feel that with my past
experience ! can do as satisfae-
tory work this year with $1,000 as
could before with $4,000. The
street commissioner must watch
this fund; he must not spend too
much on this and leave that to
be neglected; he must spend the
money where It will do the most
good to the most people and in
this he must exercise care and
discretion-above all, he is the
man who spends the money.
These are the reasons why I
bellows that ,Ial~n my record,
sho6yt ~ soturnsd to the position
that now hold. have done my
best on this job and III keep right
on II the people see fit to elect
me-"
