Students Wear Old Clothes TO School

1t has been voted upon and decided
by the boys of the Boomers Ferry high
school that they will wear khaki
trousers or overalls and dark shirts
for the remainder of this term. This
measure has been taken on account
of the high cost of suits and other ar
ticles necessary for school wear.
Overalls and khaki trousers are
much cheaper than suits so u stud
ents have decided to cut the high cost
of living by wearing them. Some
boys dread going to school on account
of not having good looking suits like
others, so this movement helps them
as well as 1t does the other boys. The
students do not have to change their
clothes when they go home to do the
chores. In military training they
have to get down on the dirty
floor sometimes, and IL a boy has a
good suit on or a light shirt, he gets
them dirty and probably ruins his
suit. This applies to manual train
ing as we'll for q person feels more
like working with his overalls on than
if he wore his good clothes. These
different garbs can be washed fire.
quently so there is no need of a per
son coming to high school with dirty
clothes on. A good suit of schoo
clothes costs from s25 to s35 and
pair of overalls costs about So, s,
there is a great saving for the studen
In wearing these clothes.

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF -
IN LAST OF MOHICANS''

Early American history is graph
ically represented on the screen in
Maurice Tourneur's new special film,
1.-THE Last of the Mohicans," which
shows at the Grand theatre Saturday
and Sunday. st
I The actual event repeated was the
horrible massacre Of Fort William
Henry, New York, which took place
on August 10th, 1857. Strangely
enough, Tourneur filmed the identi-
cal scenes on the tenth Of August,
1920, and for time it looked as if
the calendar had returned to colon
ial days, so realistic was the big
scene.
1t was a bloody affair, but only one
gallon of glycerine blood was spilled
over the ground at the Tourneur stu
do. Montcalm, the French general,
set out from Canada with savages as
his allies, determined to capture the
British forts. The general, Col. Munro
and thousands of soldiers and lndi-
ans lived again in the film scenes.
This special picture comes with an
all-lead cast, headed by such we'll
known players as Wallace Berry, AL
bert Roscoe, Joseph Singleton, Bar
bara Bedford, Lillian Hall and Henry
Woodward, with an array of player
talent that is capable Of carrying a
picture unaided.
