One of the most enjoyable affairs of
the school year was the monthly teach
ers' spread given last Thursday by the
teachers Of the Lafayette School The
dinner served was very fine in every
| respect and shows that school teachers
can prepare a good meal. The teachers
are very grateful to those people Of the
Lafayette district who assisted in the
preparation of the dinner and in the
loaning of dishes for the occasion.
The basket ball game played here with
Hancock last week was one Of the hard
est fought games of the season. Our
boys Won by score of % to Is. One
of the best features of the game was
the excellent spirit which was shown
toward each other by the members of
the contending teams and by the aud
fence. Willmar has the reputation of
treating visitors sQuarely and the school
authorities are doing everything they
can to uphold that reputation. We want
our boys to play as hard game as they
know how, but we want it to be clean.
Our coach, Mr.. Trebilcock, refereed the
game to the satisfaction Of everyone.
On Wednesday of this week we played
our second game with the 2Litchfleld

will be given next week.
