HARTFORD COLLEGE NOTES.
BY a Pupil.

Up to the present time, there
have been approximately one hun.
dred pupils enrolled in the High
School Every one of them seems
to be taking a deep, and responsive
intesest in their work. Seemingly
they are all ready at any time to
do anything that will help build up
the name of the school, and this is
indeed a most desirable spirit, not
only in a High. School. but in any
other similar oganization.
All four of the classes have now
oganized, each having a president,
secretary and treasurer The pur-
pose of these organizations is that
when there is business of interest
to the class to be conducted. the
class president may call meeting
of the class where the affairs may
be conducted in a business like man
/ ner. This would he almost i'm
possible unless the class was or
gained. Each class also has its
own notices. yells, class colors,
and remnants. 1t is generally
known that an unorganized class
never shows as much enthusiasm as
one that has been organized.
The Junior Red Cross has again
been organized this year. Every
class repots full, and complete
membership, with class collection
/ over the scheduled amount.
-. The glrls--nf- tha-nelrly- organized -
Domestic Science class are progress
ing nicely with their work, under
the personal supervision of Miss
Bell Walker, who is indeed a very
capable teacher.
More interest is being taken in
athletics this year tran ever before
/ Ire girls.as we'll a the boys, are
participating in the basket ball
practice and we hope soon to be
able to book both teams. in a match
game with some of the other High
Schools of our County.
There are rumors out now that
Hartford High School is soon to
boasta five-piece orchestra. which
will furnish music for the class So
Gals, and other special occasions.
Wednesday. October l. from
goo p. m. to $500 p. m. was given
over to the rendering Of the flag
day program which had previously
been arranged by Supt. J. F. Brun-
er. and was successfully carried out
on this date. Following are the
patrons that took part in the pro-
gram: First Prof. Hill made Il
very interesting talk on the origin,
and construction of the different
American Flags, up to our present
one. after which Reverend Russell
Walker conducted the devotional
exercises. Next was a very eloquent
patriotic address made by Judge }.
S. Glenn, Mrs. j. +. Pirtle. represel
ting the Parent-Teacher's associa-
ton, presented the flag in a very
pleasing manner, after which Supt.
j. +. Bruner in behalf of the en-
tire school, responded to the presan
tation with a short talk of accept
ance.
This having completed that part
of the program which was to take
place in the interior of the build
ing, the entire school marched in
body down on the campus in front
of the building. The flag was then
raised by Edward Hoover, who was
formerly machine-gunner in the
L. S. Army. but is now a student of
this place. AS the flag was being
raised. the crowd cheered vigorous
ly until it reached its proper posi-
ton. Each one of the pupils then
renewed their pledge to the Flag.
The singing of the Star Spangled
Banner concluded the program.
Quite a number of the patrons
were out to witness the flag raising,
and seemed to have enjoyed ii.
We take this method of express
ing our thanks for the good work
the Parent Teachers Association is
doing to improve our school in gem
eral We want especially to thank
them for the very beautiful flag
which they have just presented.
and to assure them that the many
| things they are doing for our good
= and pleasure are being appreciated
very much by us--the pupils
