aware of what would happen and
quickly made plans to get back un-
der the big tent. Eddie Plank quit
some time ago and is living at his
farm over near Gettysburg.
The Bethlehem Company take tho
attitude that while the big league
circus was a treat and diversion to
it's men, nevertheless more games
played by the employees themselves
will benefit in different manner. A
canvas of the huge plant was made
this week for good ball players, and
what the public may now see is more
battles for title among the various
department, if a league of this sort
is found to appeal to the men.

today that the baseball league would

used for games among the various
departments at each park.

CENTRAL HIGH NOTES
Commencement Argus

Lewis h. Rimer, Business Manager
of the Argus, began his first work
today on the Commencement Argus
cards were placed in the hands of
every senior who wished TO have his
or her picture in the extra edition
OF the Argus that is published every
year in June. Rimer has made ar
rangements with the Musser Studio
to take photographs of all seniors
who wish to appear in the commence
ment number. The cost of these pic
lures is exceptionally low, the charge
being only sixty cents each. These
include the taking of the picture
and the cost of making the cut for
printing. y large number of the
seniors have already signed up for
their pictures, and the business man
ager expects nearly every person in
the class to have their pictures in the
class edition.

that had been called for next We'd

off by the edtor-in chief. Carl B.

called for thai evening, which would
have required six of the members of

Of the school visited the electric
power plant on South Cameron street
this afternoon. The classes, under
the charge OF Professor Henschen,
instructor of physics, were shown
through the big plant, and had the
various parts of the big dynamos ex-
planned to them in detail. Inas-
much as the seniors studying physics
are dealing with the electrical end
of the subject at the present time,
the trip gave them an excellent op-
portunity to seeing just how the
large dynomos, which they are study
ing in detail, work
stan VIII Meet
The editor-in- chief of the Argus
announced toda that there will be
meeting of the staff on Monday az
ternoon at the school. The late ed
ition of the Argus will be gone over
at this time, and definite plans for
the editing of the commencement
Argus will be formed.
The ChOirs
Much discussion has been going on
throughout the school as for what
purpose the two choirs are being
kept together and are being drilled.
Although there have not been Xery
many occasions on which the choirs
could be used this year, there have
been several where selections by the
choirs would have added greatly to
the success of the occasion. And yet
they have not been given an oppor-
tunity to show what they are capa-
BILE of doing. although there has been
a practice held every week. At the
recent Triangle Debate there was a
fine opportunity for the choirs to
sing, but they had no place on the
program. 1t seems a pity that two
such musical organizations. which
have been thoroughly trained, should
have to take a back seat both in pub
lie entertainments and in the regu-
lar assembly exercises of the school

that the parents do not value educa-

BELLEVILLE NOTES.

School attendance is of prime i'm
portance at present. Time has been
lost because of the closing of schools,
incident to the Influenza epidemic,
Christmas holidays and inclement
weather. To make up this loss, it is
imperative that each pupil attend
school regularly. Belleville school is
well heated. The teachers are careful
to see that the children wear their
cloaks when leaving the class rooms
and their play at intermission and al
recess is carefully supervised, so that
no more ideal place for a child's
physical as well as mental wellbeing
can be found than the Belleville

Many of the brighter children pride
themselves to overcome adverse
weather conditions. Rainy days have
no terror for them. Rubbers, rain
