School Notes.

The High School enjoyed their
annual wiener roast last Friday
night. About 80 of the students
with the High School faculty were
there. All had a good time except
some of the Freshmen who were
afraid they were too close to Coon
Creek. Their fears were unfound-
ed and all came home safely.
The Seniors had charge of the
Assembly program last Thursday
morning. They presented a mock
wedding which was amusing as
well as entertaining. The Juniors
have charge of the assembly next
Thursday morning.
Lena Sidwell enrolled in the
High School Monday morning.

Thu, County Y. M. ca.

The County Y, M. c. A. which
was started last spring is just
about completed. Mr.. l.. E. Ril-
ey has been secured as the first
County Secretary and will begin
his work about the 18th of the
month. This type of association
work should prove successful and
beneficial. There are at the pre-
sent time over $50 counties organ
lied in the United States. With
this type of organization practic-
ally every point in the county can
be reached. Every center can
have the advantage Of organized
athletics and other forms of associ-
alton work. 1t is county wide
and the resources of the whole
county can be brought to bear on
each individual community.
The best way to reach boys
has been found to be through base
ball, foot ball, summer camps,
illustrated lectures and other
things in which they are interested.
These activities are carried on
in churches, schools, homes and
halls. Some OF the most success
full are in country homes. The
work is under the direction of the
county committee composed as
follows: Geo. j. Kusterer, Chair
man ; Ffank~ b. Sass, Frank e.
Hitner, Forrest Chambers, E. C.
Vandervoort, S. E. Borgess.,
Mark Farrar, w. H. Black, Geo.
Masters, A. F. Drake, and Rev.
j. M. Stewart.
The plan has taken well in the
county. Carthage has given
$l40O, Joplin $4,000, toward a two
year budget, although none of the
secretary's time will be taken up
in these places. Oronogo, Duen-
veg and Carl Junction have made
their quotas and plans are being
made to visit other centers. Jas
per is being asked by the county
committee to contribute $500 to
a two-year budget, or $3.50 for
each year. During the coming
week the cause of the young men
and boys of Jasper will be present
ed TO its citizens and in this we
feel that she will not be behind
the other towns.
