IMPROVEMENTS IN SCHOOL
 ROOMS

School opened again this morn ing with a large attendance and it is estimated there will be more than 12O students in a short time.
 Many improvements have been mdae to the school rooms in or der 10 accommodate the pupils and to make the work more efficient. The room used last year for assem- bly, purposes has been fixed for use as the High school room, and the room in the northeast corner, which has not been used for some time, has been re-floored and plas- tered for use as the auditorium. A platform has been built in this room.
 Twelve manual training desks have been made by the instructor, L. H. Pedersen, for use by the boys. These desks are made in the most up-to-date style, are bolted to the floor, and are finished with all ap- pliances that make it easy for the student to learn woodwork.
 The domestic science kitchen, painted in white iap-a-lac, is slick and clean, and ready for work there under the instruction of Mrs. AL bert Reinert.
 The whole school building has been cleaned from top to bottom, and new floors have been laid in parts of the building.

THAT FIRST DAY OFF TO
 SCHOOL

His mother gave his hair a pat and put his hat on straight, And tucked his satchel in his arm and said to hold 1t tight; Then, while the other children wait ed for him at the gate, She kissed him, and we let him go, our eyes with pride alight- Away to school, away to school! Our little baby boy.
 That's never been away from US three hours ebfore, to school! We stood and watched him out of sight, and smiled, but not with joy;
 His mother cried 8 little bit = and I grinned like 8 fool.

For oh, there is so much to learn' so much we grieYe must be, So much of sweet and sorrow and so much of right and wrong, We yearn to keep him sheltered but we sadly know that he Must learn to vie with others or he never can grow strong Must learn the thousand lessons which the teachers never teach, Must learn the elemental laws the elemental way;
 An, yes! we know it's best of him, yet aching arms we reach And wish we had our baby back, the one we lost today.

Conflict Of Road Rules

An instance occurred the other day
with a couple of local auto drivers
that disclosed an unavoidable conflict
of road rules. An auto facing another
vehicle should pass to the right. An
auto coming behind a vehicle should
pass it to the left. If two autos are
approaching a slower vehicle from
opposite directions this rule takes
both OF them to the same side. Ordin-
arily they a e each other and slow
up. But in this instance the slower
or middle vehicle was a big load of
hay. Neither auto driver could see
the other. They both turned out ac-
cording to rules. which took them on
the same side of the load of hay.
Had they maintained their usual road
speed a clash would have been in
evttable, but fortunately they were
cautious dri9ers, and had slowed down
to pass the load of hay. BY reason of
this caution they were able to stop.
facing each other without a bump.
All of which demonstrates the wisdom
of safety first"
