Figures have just been compiled for
The attendance at the Spearfish Normal
summer school which viii close August
n. For the first time in the history OF
The school, summer school has continu-
ed for twelve weeks instead of the usual
six weeks. The total attendance has
been for the first term, two hundred
dfty-two; and for the second, one hun
attendance the entire twelve weeks
Thus, there have been three hundred
forty-four different attendants in the
school this summer. There has been a
very noticeable increase of the students
from east of the river, due, no doubt,
to the attractiyeness of the location OF
the school. Last summer there were in
attendance seventeen students from
twelve counties east of the Missouri;
this summer there have been tifty-une
students FROM twenty-six counties east
of the river, leaving bnt eighteen in
that part of the state without represent.
atives in the school Besides this, there
were students from eleven states other
than South Dakota, namely: Wyoming,
Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota,
Iowa, Wisconsin, Colorado, Indiana,
Kansas, and Florida. 1t seems as though
by proper advertising of the merits oi
the school and the beauty of the Hills,
this school will grow into one of the
largest summer schools in the country.
1t is, in fact, already the second largest
in South Dakota, and must soon have
additional buildings if it is to properly
care for its increasing student body.

spending a few days in Custer, the
guests of Rev. Campbell Mr.. Currau,
who is principal of the Lead high
school, has been at the Y Camp the first
session, as chaperon of the Lead boys.
Mrs. Curran is very popular in Custer
where she taught some years ago in the
Custer high school. She is better
known as Miss Gleckler to the Custer
community. On Sunday evening Mrs
Curran occupied the Methodist pull pit
and gave reading, Vandykes THE
Lost Word" which in the style and
ability of Mrs. Curran was as fine as
anything ever heard in Custer. 1t was
a rare treat and the only regret was that
a larger number were not there to ap
preciate it. On Monday evening Mrs.
Curran gave humorous evening at the
Sanatorium to the great delight of the
patients and management who always
appreciate the class of work done by
Mrs. Curran. She has rare ability and
the combination of wnsome spirit gives
her work great power. Custer people
