MCMILLAN NOTES.
(By William Hickman.)


One long anticipated hope has
been realized. On Tuesday, October
16, the sample uniforms arrived, and
were fitted to more than a hundred
boys. Notwithstanding that the uni
form costs $500 and that 1t is get
ting late in the season, the boys were
enthusiastic over the fact that in
about three weeks, we might look, as
well as act, like real soldiers.
The popularity of the library is
increasing: Something new once in Il
while tends to add spice to life, SO
It is with the shipments of new books
that are arriving to add to the use
fulness of our library facilities.
About 250 volumes have been added,
at a cost of $2OO.>It is planned to
spend $500 of the fund received
from library fees Tor new books,
while the rest will be used to repair
old books.
Perhaps many spectators gazed
with mystified astonishment at some
boys walking around the lot back Of
the school time after time time af-

Mcmillan Band. under Captain
Stoy made q trip Friday with some
people who were lecturing in behalf
of the second Liberty Loan. They Wis
tied live of the most centrally located
schools of eastern Audrain. They re-
port a fine trip and a good time.
Before an assembly Friday Prin.
L. II. Strunk made plea for our
support in the sale of Liberty
Bonds He urged that tho we may
not be able, many of us, to purchase,
yet We could be of inestimable value
in the advertisement OF them. After
which Supt. Pryor addressed us on
the seriousness OF our international,
national and domestic situation, urg-
ing each to play our part of the
game in the present crisis.
There are few schools that have
helped the nation in this hour of per-
Il as has Mcmillan. Ever true to all
righteous causes, Mcmillan has pur-
chased q Liberty Bond. 1t has not
been decided what to do with it
when the class graduates, but it is
suggested that they donate it either
to the school or to the Red Cross.

The fue. situation in Mexico is al
most desperate. Many people have
not enough coal on hand to make a
fire. We look for many families to
go after the big trees in the front
yards. The trees would make heat

in more sunshine. They would-be

big trees along the streets. Put
them in the fire, and thus help re-
lieve the near coal famine.

script the wealth of the nation. We
don't want to do it, But the Gov
ernment is conscripting the man
hood of the country and when it is
conscripting human life to carry the
war TO a successful conclusion, is it
any time to be more tender with our
dollars?"
