SCHOOL. NOTES.

Mr.. Herbert Hengstler, one of our
loyal supporters of high school athletics,
was so pleased with the twenty to moth
ing victory over the Litchfield football
team last Saturday that he entertained
the entire football squad at the Dream
land Theatre in the evening. After the
show Coach Textbook treated the boys
to ice cream at the Johnson Ice Cream
Parlor.
We wish to thank the managers of the
Majestic and Dreamland Moving Picture
Theatres for their kindness in advertis-
Ing our last weeks football game.
Mr.. o. A. Norman, Chairman of the
Willmar Fire Prevention Committee,
called on us October 8th to see what
plans we had made for Fire Prevention
Day. We were glad to have him come
to see us. He found US prepared to give
talks, to hold fire drills, and in other
blocks farther to walk, but no other
plan for taking care of them could be
worked out.
At last we are prepared to move part
of our over-crowded first grade in the
Lincoln School to the Industrial Build
ing. The sewing room has been fitted
up to care for them, and Miss Helen
Doyle will be the teacher in charge.
The room is not large but comfortable
and we'll lighted. We realize that some
| of the children will have two or three
| blocks farther to walk, but no plan for
| out.
| High School report cards were given
out this week. We hope that parents
will make a careful study of the results
| indicated on these cards and do their
best to help the teachers in making this
a successful year for their children
| The teachers are anxious to have all
the boys and girls in their charge do
we'll, and will be glad to consult with
| the parents at any time.
| The school is in need of one more
substitute teacher, Any one who wishes
to undertake supply work in the grades
or high school should call up the sup
erintendent's office The work of course
| is irregular, and supply teachers are
not expected to do as we'll as regular
teachers. For this work we will pay
three dollars in the grades and four
dollars per day in the high school.
