HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Although the school opened half
an hour earlier today than usual.
there were but two cases of hardness.
The Progress and Efficiency Commit
tee has arranged a percentage basis
Tor each section room to, discourage
hardness, and already it has borne
fruit. This plan is, one of the many
in the scheme of student government
Icing worked out at the school. Each
section is organized with four Off
GERS who conduct such matters as
this.
Because of the fact that the sched-
ules of some of the pupils will not
give them time to return to their
homes for dinner, there is consid-
cradle talk about starting a lunch
room at the school This plan was
considered some time ago, but be-
cause of the lack of a sufficient APP
preparation to finance it, it was
dropped.
The following judges will act at
the coming debate in this city: Prof.
LIE Row A. Rowland of Wesleyan, E
O. Shierden of this city, and Rev. ].
W. Denton Of Plainville. Prof. w. r.
Fav will accompany the team to
Hartford, and Coach w. E. Krano-
WITT will remain with the team in
this city.
Owing to the change at the school,
Headmaster Farnham will have his
Office with Vice Principal Moody for
the present.

MacBeard Finds His Destiny.
He gazed at 1t still hypnotized; he
was trying to fight his way back into
consciousness. For few moments
he did not know where he was, or
what was happening.
Then, gradually, he began to be
aware of his surroundings. He saw
the body at his feet, and the high cliffs
about him. And in the distance he saw
Clouts and Davies running toward the
motorboat.
Ida stood watching Donald. She
was still hesitating: MacBeard had
found that he could start his engine.
His hand was on hers. Davies and
Clouts were fifty PAGES away.
"Come ~ said MacBeard.
The girl shuddered, and suddenly
she leaped into the boat. MacBeard
threw himself against the gunwale and
pushed It into deep water. He sprang
aboard. He was twenty PAGES from
the shore when his pursuers arrived
at the water line. Davies whipped out
his revolver.
MacBeard crouched behind Ida and
raised her body before him for a
shield. The girl knew nothing of this
maneuver, for she had tainted.
Surrender, you BLACKBOARD" shout
ed Davies, hoarse with passion.
MacBeard. trembling, covered be-
hind the girl. With his hand, stretched
out behind her, he guided the little
craft. The distance was increasing
swiftly.
Davies let his revolver hand fall. He
knew that at that distance 1t was inn
possible to hit MacIIeard with any GER
tainty. And he could not run the risk
of shooting Ida.
Impetuously he plunged into the wa
ter. At first his desperate strokes
seemed almost to carry him as fast as
the motorboat. But soon this was
shown to be delusive. The distance
was increasing every instant. Davies

He had seen the F55 settle beneath
the waves, and knew that by no pos
sible chance could Donald catch him.
He turned to Ida, who was just
opening her eyes. He took her hand.
1t lay limp and cold in his own. He
saw her shudder. and diabolical fury
overcame him. He struck her across
the face with his open hand.

Merchandise In Stores.--In all parts
of the country there is a serious eco

be repaired so as to make them prac-

flour, seeds, and meats, may always
be protected in wire cages at slight

agement Of these Is badly needed.
Such places are centers Of rat propa-
cation. 1t Is common practice to
leave offal Of slaughtered animals to
be eaten by rats and swine. and this
is the chief means Of perpetuating
trichinae In pork. The law should re-
quire that offal be promptly cremated
or otherwise disposed Of. Country
slnughter-houses should be as clearly
and as constantly inspected as abba
toirs.
Another Important source Of rat
food is found in remnants Of lunches
left by employees in factories, stores
and public buildings. This food, which
alone IL sufficient to attract and sus-
tain small army Of rats, Is commonly
left In waste baskets or other open
receptacles. Strictly enforced rules
requiring all remnants of food to be
deposited in covered metal vessels
would make trapping far moe effec-
tive.
Military training camps, unless sub
jected to rigid discipline In the mat
ter of disposal Of garbage and waste,
soon become centers of rat infestation.
Waste from camps, deposited in COW
cred metal cans and collected daily,
should be removed far from the camp
itself and either burned or utilized in
approved modern ways.
