Such a rule ought not to be made

About one-third of the pitchers

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Carrie Gibellini entered the High
School recently, bringing the num-
Der of students enrolled up to AZ.
This is the largest enrolment in the
history of the school.
The text books used in the teaching
of civic patriotism arrived during
the week and were given out to the
students Thursday.
On account of the influenza in this
county the schools were ordered
closed October "a until the epidemic
had subsidized. The situation SEEM
ingly improving, school was reopened
Thursday, November Z, but when
several new cases developed in diff
ferent portions of the county the
situation was discussed and it was
deemed best 10 again close the
schools, and so on Friday morning
school was dismissed for another
week. We all hate to lose this time
now as it makes harder work for both
teachers and pupils later on, but we
must not think of ourselves only,
but the health and welfare of the
community.
In order for the High School to
take an active part in raising money
for the United War Work campaign
beginning November II and ending
November Is, different ways of
raising the needed money were dis
cussed Thursday. The prevention of
all public meetings will undoubtedly
have it's effect on our plans, but
nevertheless a large number of the
students have already pledged them
selves to learn and give" a certain
amount toward this good work. Miss
Isabel Merialdo is County Executive
of the Victory Girls. while Principal
Morgan is County Executive Of the
Victory Boys.

count of the spread of sickness, but
literature describing the cause for
which the money is being raised is
being sent to all precinct chairman
of the sub-councils of defense and
will be by them distributed through
out the county.
In addition letters with pledge
cards are being mailed to-day to
every person in the county, and these
pledges are to be returned filled in
for whatever amount you can give
either to the chairman of your pre-
cinct or to the County Chairman at
Eureka.
Cash can be paid instead of INSTALL
ment payments if one so desires, in
which case fill in the pledge card,
mark in paid in cash and send it in.
There is much talk of peace. which
seems to make it harder for one to
realize why the money raising is be-
ing pushed forward, but even if
peace were declared tomorrow, to
slack up now would be a serious
thing. 1t will be many months after
the declaration of peace before the
boys will be returned to this coun-
try or before our training camps are
emptied. 1t means that there will
be many calls for luxuries and COM
forts to maintain the trench-worn
weary boys until they can reach their
homes.
N. P. Morgan has been appointed
County Executive of the Victory
Boys and is urging all boys between
IL and 20 to join by signing their
learn and give' pledge as quickly as
possible and turning it in; buttons
and service emblems will be sent i'm
mediately upon receipt of the
pledges.
Miss Merialdo is County Executive
of the Victory Girls. and they toe
will receive their buttons and ser
vice enlblems as soon as they have
pledged themselves. All pledges are
to be signed and turned in by the
18th of November.
j. J. Lucey has been appointed
the County Executive of the Knights
of Columbus organization, and those
particularly interested in the work
of the Catholic association may senc
