Art Department

The Art Department has its usual
summer overflow. Almost every stu
dent is carrying box of materials.
The work is being made very pract-
zeal. Art projects are given that may
be used in the school room-rural or
city.
The decided interest shown in Art
is very encouraging. The work is far
reaching.
The rural or city teacher who
brings art work into the school room
has a far reaching influence. This
study creates an interest that usually
results in departmental work being
done in this subject.
Very few subjects are not in
fiuenced by Installation, and art
teaches the students to see things.
No doubt the two hundred twenty
art students will find beauties in
nature never realized before.-Lead-
er.

vest their grain.
Kings apple orchard is a sight

Peaches have nearly doubled in
size the past week.
Our alliances are prosperous and
members enthusiastic for the Peoples

The mosquitoes are presenting their
bills now. Suppose the printer will
present his next, and maybe we can
pay with taters.
The man with 500 or more bushels
of rs cent wheat to sell this fall will
experience no difficulty from a scare
ity of money.

Whole truth About Genius.

a great idea grows like a flower. It
changes. In its evolution it leaves
crudity and imperfectiOn behind. 1t
assumes a new form, more pleasing in
its outline and more striking in its
beauty, as it is nodded into a thing
of deathless energy. An idea which
is different to all else is a thing of
wonder-if it is true. 1t is original
thought and this is all that genius is.

a Kansas judge says a minimum
length of cOurtship should be fixed by
law to prevent hasty marriages. The
judge may know a lot about law and
the power of the courts and what

venting from getting married two
