Bolo's brother is a French Arch

SCHOOL NOTES.

On Wednesday of last week case Of
scarlet fever was promptly reported by
the health officer. The schools were
closed in the afternoon. the buildings
fumigated, and other precautions tax
en- to prevent the spread of the disease.
No other case has been reported and it
is hoped that the danger of contagion
is passed.
The students who have in charge the
publication of the first annual to be
published by the Mineral Point High
School have been busy getting material
ready for the engraver and printer
THE Pointer" is the name selected
for the book. In spite of the fact that
the school has never attempted this
work before, we believe The Pointer
will be a credit to the energy of the
students and to the high school. The
business men have practically unani.
mously supported the effort by taking
advertising space, and this fact has
made the book possible. Now we want
one hundred more subscriptions and
we will break even. The price is one
dollar and subscriptions may be made
to Chris Hendra, George Bliss, Fred
Jeuck or Marion Penhallegon.
Miss Cozzens acted as judge at the
declamatory contest held at Darlington
Friday night.

Drew Large Audiences.

Mrs. Lulu Shepard of salt Lake City,
rightly credited with being the silver
tongued orator, gave two spicy and
impressive lectures at the Municipal
Theatre last week under the auspices
of the Anti-Saloon League of Mineral
Point. Her audiences were large.
Mrs. Shepard is a strong, fluent and
somewhat dramatic speaker, unques-
tionaby the peer of any lady on the
American platform.

Thinking.

If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win but think you
can't,
It's almost cinch you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you're lost.
For out of the world we find
Success begins with fellows will,
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're outclassed, you
are;
You've got think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself, be-
fore
You can ever win prize.
Lies battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But soon or late the man who wins,
Is the one who thinks.he can.
