HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

"A very CUIillliCIa 1ClAioAN AAo"
lonesome the streets look since
school was dismissed"
All of the pupils hurried out OF
town as soon as the closing eAer-
cises were over. Several of the
boys have secured employment
on the sheep ranches.
Wednesday was a perfect day
overhead, the roads were fine and
everything appeared favorable
for the trip to Brandon lake
which the juniors were giving to
the seniors and the teachers.
They left about noon and reached
the lake about two O'Clock. 1t
took but few minutes for most
of them to pull off their shoes
and stockings and wade in that
beautiful sheet Of water. There
was fun galore all of the after
noon and then came those eats
and such eats as those juniors
had prepared. They built fire on
the beach and boiled coffee and
also wieners. They had prepared
abundance of other good things
and their guests had prepared
appetites. A little past six they
started for home all feeling,
Twas the end of perfect day. :"
The eighth grade exercises FRI
day afternoon were very pretty
The stage was decorated with the
class colors and flags. They had
good program and DR. Fifer gave
most interesting address, one
to encourage both parents and
pupils of the necessity of the pr
pills going on. Mrs Weir delivered
the diplomas that mean so much
to these young people. There
were thirty two in the class.
The Commencement exercises
Friday evening were especially
pretty and all of the parts were
well taken. The singing was
better than before, the program
shorter and the address excellent
DR. Fifer gave the address that
everyone declared was good.
Edna Mason gave an Grafton en-
titled The Puritans, Bequest and
Willard Thomas gave one, The
Unification of America. In the
absence of the class president,
Melba Akerly, Miriam Nye pre-
sented the school with beauti-
ful piece of statuary. Diana of

present for the school. There had
been mix up in inviting some
one of the board to present the
diplomas and neither one of those
asked was present, but Mr. Pfost
came into the hall and was asked
to deliver the diplomas which he
did much to the pleasure of all
concerned. Mr. Pfost was unpre

of his advice and the sincerity OF
his remarks.

HOME OF EMPRESS JOSEPHINE
Fort de France on Island Of Marti.
nique interesting as Birthplace Of
Napoleon's First Wife.

The little town of Fort de France on
the island of Martinique in the French
West Indies is of the greatest inter
est to travellers, because it was the
early home of Empress Josephine, the
first wife of Napoleon. She was the
daughter Of a French army officer who
Hved on d large estate about five miles
from the town. Here Josephine was
born in 1903 and here she lived until
she was married to her first husband,
Beauharnaise, when she was sixteen
years old.
The future empress seems to have
had much education and to have lived
the simple life on a West Indian plan
tatiOn. The site of her birthplace is
still known and it is delightfully."- stu
ated in a grove of trees near the banks
Of a small river. A certain pool In
this stream is still known as the bath
Of the empress, and here the creole
beauty, according to local tradition, al
ways took her morning plunge.
After her separation from Beauhar-
naise Josephine returned to Marti-
niQue and to the quiet life Of the little
ISLAND. Passages from her diary at
that time show that she was very fond
OF her rambles in the woods and of the
quaint, easy social life of the place.
She passed three years there with her
little daughter before returning to
France to become the wife of world
eonqueror and one of the most famous
beauties of Europe.
4 statue of the empress has been
erected in the square at Fort de
France. 1t conveys a charming i'm
preston of the woman who for a time
ruled the man Of destiny and of whom
he said that she was a mistress Of the
art Of pleasing.

WHEN POISONING WAS ART
None Gained Greater Proficiency Than
a MarchIoness Of 5rinvilliers In
Z Seventeenth Century.

4 The sixteenth and seventeenth CEN
furies developed a large number of
persons who brought the crime OF poi
lsoning to an art. None attained great
Ter perfection In this than the march
ioness Of Brlnvllllers. She was the
daughter Of Dreux D'Aubray. a high
Official in the reign of Louis XIV. In
l1651 she was married to the marquis
of Brinvllllers. heir to an enormous
fortune. She herself brought a consld-
lerable dowry.
She was woman Of prepOssessing
appearance and great charm. She lived
happily with her husband until one
iSieuF G0din. commonly known as st.
fCroix, was introduced into the family.
The marquis took a great liking to
him, and ST. Croix made his home with
the aristocratic couple. The march
'ioness soon fell in love with the adj
.venturer. De Brinvilliers had st. Crolx
imprisoned in the Bastille. Here the
latter met an italian who was an adept
in pOisons. and he taught st. Croix his
arts. When the latter was released,
after a years confinement, he resumed
his acquaintance with the marchioness,
but more cautiously. The Italian came
out of prison and entered the services
OF the pair. They at once entered into
schemes to poison the wOman's father,
her two brothers and her sister, so as
to get possession of the family fortune.
They succeeded in all cases except
that of the sister. Yet they escaped
suspicion and would have gone free
had IL not been for an accident. While |
mixing poisons the mask worn by st.
Croix fell from his face and he was
srTocated by the poisons he was pre-
pairing for others. Then the whole
dark tale was unfolded and all were
condemned to death.

Finds Volcano Is Hottest at Ton.

Notwithstanding what the old text
Books say, it now appears that a vol
eano is hottest on its surface. This is
the conclusion drawn by a scientist
who has made extensive investigations
In craters in Hawaii and has obtained
samples Of gases and lava before they
reached the air. Laboratory studies
Of these samples make it appear that
much of the heat required to keep an
open. lava basin in fluid condition is
supplied by the chemical action Of the
gases. From these investigations the
scientist concludes that In times of
great activity the temperature at the
surface Of a volcano undoubtedly is
1Gher than that below the surface.

Polsoninss In MunItion Plants.

The industrial intoxieations arising
from the making of war munitions
open a quite new field of study. Alice
Hamilton, in her investigation among
10000 workers In Al plants, found that
the real cause Of illness was recog-
nized by few even among the factory
physicians, but there was evidence Of
poisoning in 2.50S cases, of which SO
resulted fatally. The most harmful
materials were nitrogen oxide fumes
and trinitrotoluene, which, with ben
zine, caused all but three Of the fatal
lpoIsonings. Among other Injurious
substances are included nitrobenzlne,
toluene, phenol, ether, mixed acids,
sulphuric acid, picric acid, illuminate,
ammonia, mercury. nitroaphthalenes
and chlorine, but these are not likely
to produce serious results.
