'English II


The third debate in the English II
class took place Tuesday morning and
was a very interesting debste. The
question was: Resolved, That the
United States should feed Germany
Those on the affirmative side were
CAPTAIN Bessie Kent and her col
league Ellen Jones. Those on the neg
alive side were Captain Lcrene Green
street and her colleagues Elsie Jones
and ay Hamilton. The negative side
won BY a majority Of seven votes,
but we are sure The other side would
have gained more votes II their Otn-
er colleague, Elsie Horton, had been
there. .E
The last debate in the Eng. II class
took place on Wednesday and Thurs

Bessie Diveley was absent Thurs
day on account Of sickness.
We wonder why at the beginning OF
the week the SophOmores went limp

much weiner roast last Friday.

members of the Tenth Division who
lived on farms When they enlisted are
going back to the farm, and in addi-
tion a vast number who came from
offices, stores or common labor jobs
are registering for jobs on farms.
This not only holds good for the
Tenth Division, but also for the cas-
uals who are being discharged at
Camp Funston.
For this reason there will be, an
adequate supply of labor for farms,
except at harvest time. 1t is believed
that when the spring work opens up
the supply of farm labor will easily
meet the demand. The Employment
service is anxious to get in touch with
farmers who need help during the re-
naming winter months, in order to be
able to place these boys of the Army
and Navy who will be discharged
within the next few weeks, and who
want jobs at once.
Men who worked in Offices, stores
and at other inside jobs are not an
xious to get back inside after having
once received taste Of outdoor life
When they apply for jobs they want
places where they will still be out Of
doors, and the Kansas farm offers the
best opportunity.
