SCHOOL NOTES

Miss Florence Johnson has accept
ed a position in the public schools OF
Red Wing, Minnesota, for next year.
John Bowlin '22 is leaving school,
as the family is soon moving to Col
orado to make their future home.
The girls and boys basket ball
teams had their pictures taken. One
picture of each team will be framed
and hung in the assembly room.
Miss Olga Kueter has resumed her
work in the Longfellow school. Mrs.
Dickey had charge of the work dur
ing Miss Kueter's absence.
Superintendent Theo. Utne spent
a couple of days last week in St.
Cloud on business.
r. V. Bennett, representative for
the International School of Cores
pondence, sang several solos before
the high school last Monday morning.
These solos we're so much enjoyed
according to those who heard him
that Mr.. Benefits return will be
welcomed by the students any time.
The caste for Nothing but the
Truth" is hard at work to make this
years class play "the best ever"
Rumor says that James Cosgrove in
the part of Bob Bennett really goes
twenty-four hours, telling Nothing
but the Truth"
A great deal of interest has been
taken the past week in the house, de-
signed, built and furnished by the
girls of the Home Economics Glass.
Hours of hard study have been spent
and wonderful results have been OBJ
tanned One home is so completely
furnished that porch boxes, filled
with violets are found on the front
porch-yes, even letter was found
in the mail box. While we are hav-
ing such wonderful weather, a trip
to the school house in order to see
the work of these girls, should not
come amiss.
Practical demonstration in salads
have been held by the Home Econ
omics II Class the past week. Mem
bers of the faculty have had the op-
portunity to sample the salads,
which the girls have made out of the
things, which they happened to
have in their homes"
The Social Problems Class has
shown great interest in their topic
for the week, Marriage and Div
orce." Many interesting facts we're
discovered, when a special study was
made of the marriage and divorce
laws and conditions in their own
state, in the U. S. and especially in
foreign countries.
The spring primary class will start
Tuesday, April 10Th. All children
who will be six years old before the
first of January, may enroll.
Come to the class play-see how

The Junior class adjourned to
Pomme de Terre Wednesday after
noon where a wiener roast' was
given as farewell party to their
president, John Bowlin.
The book keeping class has started
on their "Wholesale Books" which
is the last set to be given this year.
Questionnaires on what is. de-
manded of a Stenographer" have been
sent to some of the business men of
Morris. The answers have been very
much appreciated and are of great
help to the students, who are prepar-
ing to go out as stenographers.
Students in Miss Mabel Macomber's
class are busy reading classes for
book reviews. Each student will re-
port on six books before May 1.
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1921-04-15

Mr.. Schools took his Physics Glass
who have been studying the X-Ray
down to DR.. Geenty's Office Monday.
The class had the opportunity of see
ing and enjoying practical demon
stration.
Students are busy getting their
essays ready for essay contest which
closes April rs.
Announcement cards for the class
of 1921 have been received. The
Seniors have had their class photo
graphs taken-they are beginning to
realize the end is near.
1t is natural that all people do
not agree. See if you agree with Bob
Bennett when he says that Ethel
Clarke's singing in Nothing but the
Truth" is just awful.

The Crime Wave

S.nrering human life, 10 deserving OF more

s.ellne far below our most pressing needs.
=, Ia conditions like these which men, in

n,t The more dangerous element are tho
tw,,an yultures who follow iu the wake Of
disaster to prey upon Its victims 1t 10 this
after class who furnish the majority OF
i present-day criminals. Most OF them make
crime n profession and are far moro intel

tSlers to twist the law in their favor and
thus defeat the ends OF justice.
This method Of beating the "bulls' en-
couraRcs others and the ranks are kept

lice arc asleep ON the sob. Sometimes the
police themselves fnd robbery lucrative
