months ago the president am

Of Germany and has insisted up

that AIr. Cores resolution was

GORE S RESOLUTION

"Resolved. That the Senate re
spectfully advise the president
that it is the sense of the Senate
that the treaty concluding the
present war and requiring the
consent Of the Senate should be
made with the peoples concerned
through representatives duly
elected by them for that purpose
and empowered to conduct such
negotiations in the name and by
the authority Of the peoples of
Germany and Austria-Ilungary.
Resolved further. That the Sen
ate fayors the vigorous and unin-
teTupted prosecution Of the war
until a democratic. just and ac-
ccptable peace is made certain,
upon terms approved by the pres
idcnt and faithful to the cobel-
ligerents of the United States. "
Senator Gore suffers from the
lack Of physical sight-a misfor-
tune in which friend and foe
must synpathize with him-but
nobody can accuse him Of not
having sense enough to come in
out Of the wei when the flood
gates Of heaven are opened This,
we take it, is the explanation Of
the foregoing resolution which he
recently introduced in the United
States senate.

resolution is concerned, nobody
will find fault with it but that the

Thanks to the sensible meas
ures devised by President Aus
tin and approved by the health
authorities. the Oklahoma College
for Women continues its work
despite the flu !" With the pre-
cautions that are taken for the
protection Of the health Of the
students, they are as safe in the
dormitoly and in their class
rooms as they would be in their
own homes. The girls in the dor
mitory really constitute one huge
family and, With the safe guards
that are thrown about them there,
they are probably in less danger
than they would be if they were
sent home, scattering over the
state, and many Of them doubtless
going into localities where "flu |"
is far more prevalent than it is
here.
President Austin wisely has
provided that girls boarding in
the city shall not attend the col
legc while the danger of an cpl
demic persists, thus reducing to
minimum the possibility Of an
outbreak of the malady in the
school These students will con
tinuc their studies at home and
every possible advantage will be
given TO them to make up for lost
work when they return to school.
On the whole, it appears that the
arrangement which has been
worked out presents the most
practicable plan possible for pro-
tecting the health Of the students
and at the same time permitting
the work of the school to go on
without interruption.

STEVENS COUNTY WILL
HOLD SPELLING CONTEST

Rules for the county spelling
matches have been issued by the coun-
ty superintendent. All pupils from
the third to the eighth grade inclu-
sive, must be entered.
There will be five contests for the
year 1918-1919 on the following dates:
Oc. 18, Dec. 6, Jan. "a, March 7,
April lS.
The words for a written examina
ton will be taken from the Merrill
Speller, the lists for each grade be-
ing chosen by the county superinten-
ent and sent in time for the test to
be given on the required date. Five
per cent of the words in the seventh
and eighth grade lists will be taken
from the paper called Current
Events" The address is Current
Events, 30 North Michigan ave-, Chi
cago.
When the tests are given the teach
er shall correct the papers on a basis
of 1000 and not later than one week
after the contest forward the results
to the county superintendent. In
getting the class average all pupils
belonging must be counted, whether
they contested or not, provided, that
any child who is absent from school
because of actual sickness need not
be counted.
The misuse Of hyphen or cap
ital will make the spelling incorrect.
The examiner may pronounce a word
twice and may define it. After the
words have all been pronounced, five
minutes shall be given the pupils to
look over their own papers, during
which time no comment on the exam
ination shall be made by the exam
iner.
In order to avoid unequal cOmpeti-
ton, schools are divided into two
classes, A and B.
Glass A-Schools having a term of
six months or of seven months.
Class B-Schools having term of
eight months Or of nine months.
To the school in each of the classes,
A and b, making the highest average
for the year will be awarded a pen
nant.
1t is suggested that the community
spelling bees and spelling matches
between neighboring schools be ar
ranged by the teachers Independent
of this written contest.
