Public School Notes !.
Mrs. Henry and Ralph Taralseth
We're visitors at the high school build
ing last Wednesday afternoon.
Professor Stomberg, OF the State
University, gave an interesting talk at
the high school last Thursday. He
spoke of the carelessness Of young peo-
pie nowadays, common expression
which they llse being II should worry
In these serious war times we really
should worry. He also told Of the most
mort rthern school he ever visited. It
was located several hundred miles
within the polar circle. His visit was
made sin July and when out boating
the boat became caught between Ice
cakes Here the children were trying
to make garden, but it was hard
work: We, situated in such fertile
region, ought surely to be thankful
Prof. Sjostrand accompanied him to
the high school building.
The double quartet of last year gave
us several selections at assembly period
Friday which were very much enjoy
led.
The school seems to be center Of
attraction, as members OF the last
years graduating class can't keep
away. Scarcely a day passes but some
ALUMNI comes walking In.
Mr.. Lundquist and Mr. Aug. John
son were visitors at the high school
Friday forenoon
Monday, atsassembly, the high school
was very well entertained by Mr.. Leon
Hammit violinist, with Miss Lucille
Farrell, as accompanist. They were
called back time after time and the
pupils would have liked more.
Monday afternoon the high school
andseighth grade we're given short en-
tertanment by Clarence w. GLAND. He
drew one cartoon and played one sell
lection on the violin and another with
Swiss Bells The only fault found
with the entertainment was that it was
too short
Five boys were enrolled in the high
school Monday morning, two Seniors
and three Juniors. ==.ss
S Wake up and have meeting,

The Department of Public Instruc-
ton, as directed by the Public Safety
Commission Of Minnesota, is seeking
Information from all the schools of the
state as to the nature of the material
in the text books used in the various
high school Of the state, an inyestiga-
TONS also to be made Of the private
Iand parochial schools where the Ser
|sman language is being taught.
The law now requires the teaching
of patriotism in all the common,
graded and high schools Of the state.
This may be accomplished in many
ways but perhaps one Of the best is
thru the medium of song and speaking
during the general period when all
pupils are present.
i The sewing classes in some schools
are devoting their time to assist in the
/ making of garments for the Red Cross
societies. We see no reason why this
plan should not be followed as the ed
ucational benefit of such work is pro.
badly as great as II the classes follow
fthe regular course usually pursued and
moreover the unselfshness Of such q
movement is to be commended;
The home training teachers Of the
various schools Of the state are re
I.quested to meet at various places IN
order to consider problems OF conser.
yation, that all forces may act in uni
son with the state and national govern
ment to accomplish the best results.
The high school boys have chosen
4 Henry Halyorson as their foot bal
captain. They could have made nc
slbetter choice as Henry is able, enthus
iastic and manly. If the boys who
wish to play present statement Of
permission, from their parents, and are
able to meet all the school require
ments as to grades, etc, an effort vii
be made to schedule games.
