"All right. Then sit down here be-
side me and play" muttered Wallace,
wondering rather srimly what there
was for her to play with.
But the grubby little fingers were
DOR busy In the snndy soil. Wallace
watched the child. wondering who she
was. and how 1t had happened that
the father had been forced to take her
into the jungle. into the midst Of the
contending armies. Her clothing was
almost in rags, and she must have been
drenched by the rains Of the preceding
night. It had certainly been a des-
perate and a difficult adventure for the
dead man.
The light began to fade. Wallace,
half dellrious now from pain and
thirst. struggled to preserve his con-
seriousness for the sake Of the little
girl. Sometimes he would emerge
rom a seml-stupor and look round for
her ~anxiously; but he always found
her, no great distance away, building
sand castles u Of tho soft soil and
chattering to herself as happily as II
she had already forgotten her sorrow.

 Something that every school-room should have is large flag. At pres ent four are needed in our school, and in order to obtain them each pupil has willingly offered to donate a small sum. The entire amount should not exceed thirty dollars and any outside donations will be appreci- ated. If there is any money remain ing in the treasury after the purchase is made it will be wisely spent for new library books.

 Rev. Shriver closed his talk by sum- ming up the three things that made Washington the great man that he was-his splendid physique, his we'll developed intellect, and his trust in Divine guidance.
 (This address was reported by Geneyieve Rosswog, who took notes during the talk.)
 We were glad to have a number of visitors at our Washington day exer- cises. Among those present were Mesdames Burchett, MacCormac, Lacy. Field and Howard.

 Under the direction of the principal the Ayres spelling test-"a measur. ing scale for ability in spelling"-was given to various grades on Monday and wednesday of this week, Many of the pupils in each class made a grade of 100 per cent, but a few very poor grades served to lower the class average materially.
 This test consists of standardized lists of words for various grades, with the minimum class average which each class is expected to attain. It has helped to emphasize the need of more careful study of this important subject in certain quarters. The standings were as follows:

Wednesday the school had great scare. The snow had frozen to ice on the roof. When it broke and start ed to fall, we thought the roof was go- ing in. It was fortunate 1t did not happen at recess, for I'm afraid there wouldn't have much left of the school children, especially the smaller ones playing in the yard, if those large blocks of ice had struck them.
 The Eighth grade has had hard time with some of their history. They have been on one lesson all week and are just finishing it.
 The Sixth and Eighth graders had spelling match Thursday. It went off just as we thought it would-"our side won," or, rather the Eighth grade. We were counting on Earth, our champion speller, standing up last, but we will have to give the honor to Brooke Lamrey.

Notes by Margaret Foster.
 To the great surprise of Miss Kol- benson, when her pupils had been seated one afternoon last week, Junior Lydick was not among them. Upon inquiring about him, she was informed that Master Lydick was up to his waist in a snow-bank, from which the efforts of four or five of his companions had failed to remove him. So all of them went out to the scene of the distress. As hard as Miss Kol- benson pulled she could not get him out. So the shovel was sent for, but could not be found. However, the janitor appeared with a shovel and Junior at last was freed. The rest of his afternoon was spent sitting by the radiator, drying out and bewailing his sad fate. This accident caused great humiliation, as Master Lydick is the champion jumper.
 For some time the High School English class has been studying diff ferent types of the essay. During the past week Miss Keever read Elmer sons essay on Self Reliance" to the High School English class. Notes were taken, after which the pupils wrote resume of the essay. It was the first attempt at this kind of work, and the papers were very creditable. First and Second Grade Notes, by

He reviewed briefly the life of Washington, mentioning that he had had the advantage of only grammar school education. When 16 years old he became surveyor, at 19 an officer in the army of Virginia, and later en tered the house of burgesses.
 At the convention in 1775, wher John Quincy Adams nominated Wash ington as the leader of our army against England, Washington was afraid he was not capable of the un dertaking. But he proved his worthi ness, and Frederick the Great ranked him as on a par with, if not above any great general of his age.
 At the constitutional convention il 1787 Washington helped to form con stitution that more modern republics have copied, Russia being the lates } to consider adopting it.
 Washington married at the age o 27, and had two step-children. He tool particular interest in his plantation spending most of his time in the sad dle, riding over the estate. This out door life made him physically perfec |, He was very hospitable to all visitors
