ADDRESS BY COACH COOK

Clyde Cook, coach of high school
athletics and instructor of history
in the high school, this week gave
a speech to the entire assembly on

He said that TO him, a person who
was cultured was one who had de-
veloped a many sided interest" The
person who had done this was more
cultured than the person who had
a high interest in business. but who
couldn't be interested in any other
subject than business If one went

PUBLIC SPEAKING

In connection with the public
speaking class, which is under the
supervision of p F. Gaiser and con
sists Of junior and senior boys, each
member of the class is required 10
give a speech before the student as
sembly and faculty before they re
ceive credit for their semesters
work.
The first of series of these
speeches was given last Friday,
April 20, and those on the program
were George Libby, Robert Schroeder
Herbert Vosburg and William Stein
er, The speeches were very well
given and each one required ten
minutes or more.
George Libby spoke on the sub.
ject of the yellow Peril" and his
talk dealt with the exclusion of lap
anese and Chinese and also the dan
ger in connection with allowing
these races to enter this country in
the large numbers which they do.
He also spoke of the birth rate of
these two races and the danger that
might arise in the future if they are
permitted to enter the United States
at will.
Robert Schroeder spoke on Char
acter Development of High School
People"-mentally, morally and
His talk dealt with the
problems and difficulties that CON
front the ordinary student during
his high school career and how the
average student could benefit him
self by working harder not only on
his student work but also to develop
Herbert Vosburg spoke about
The Benefits Derived From a High
School Course" His talk dealt
mainly with his personal experiences
in P, II. S. and the mistakes he
made during the early part of his
high school career.
William Steiner gave a talk con-
corning The History of the State of
Washington" His address was well
outlined and he traced the growth
of the present state from the time
it was set aside from Oregon terri
tory as separate territory in 1853
to the time it secured admission
into the Union under the Omnibus
Statehood bill. He also told about
the difficulties the pioneers faced in
settling the territory and ended his
talk by telling of the natural wealth
which the state has at hand and the
great future for the state of Wash
ington.
The instructor of this course,
along with the members of the class,
believe the course is very beneficial
and is fulfilling its mission in the
fact that it teaches the students to
express their thoughts forcefully and
in proper English. Mr.. Gaiser re-
marked that he hoped to see the day
in the near future when every one
would be required to take a course
in public speaking.
This week, Friday, the second
series of talks in relation to public
speaking will be given This week S
talks will be in the form of debates
with Edward McCully, Wesley
Haynes, Franklin Berry and Lloyd
Gage debating the question: Re
solved, that the courses of home
economies and manual training shall
be abandoned for an indefinite per-
iod of time, as part of the course
of study in P H, S."
Judges have been selected for the
debate and each speaker will be al
lowed ten-minute constructive
speech and a five-minute rebutal.

HIGH SCHOOL CARNIVAL


school on Friday evening, April %,
was great success in every way.
All who attended it enjoyed the
evening greatly. The carnival was
given for the purpose of replenish-
ing the high school treasury and for
purchasing some much needed new
track equipment. The door receipts
were very gratifying to all those in
charge OF the event.
The carnival consisted of a stunt
program in the auditorium of the
high school and several attractions
in the gymnasium. These consisted
of inspiring side shows and booths
where refreshments of different
kinds were obtained The big slide
from the city park was strong at
traction and many dignified nigh
school people renewed their youth.
The program in the auditorium
consisted of three stunts put on by
the freshman, sophomore and jun
Tor classes. These stunts kept the
audience in laughter for the unusual
features were uniquely presented
The Baby Show, the freshman stunt
was much enjoyed The nervous
doctor, Marion Yelle, with his as
sistant, the calm nurse. Vivian
Duthie, delighted all who viewed the
baby show, where Ruth Parr, as
Lila Nader, was awarded the prize
for being the most perfect of all the
babies entered. The other entries
in the baby show were Aileen Ma
guire, as Gladys Atherton; Beulah
Wilson, as Gladys Nash; Tvor Melan-
der, as Dick Hays. and Esther Gwinn
as Charlotte Mathews, who lost all
chance of winning the prize because
of her large bump of idiocy.
The negro minstrels certainly did
their part in entertaining their adj
miring audience. The dusky enter
tanners proved to be talented mem
bers of the sophomore class. For
some time they entertained the
crowd with their songs and jokes.
Hedges and Archer distinguished
themselves by their marvellous abili-
ty in shaking dice and shimmying.
An all-star cast of gifted players
from the high school presented the
play, His Model Wife" The play
delighted the audience and the stars
won great deal of we'll deserved
praise
After the program was over the
gymnasium was opened and there
the awed visitors viewed many Won
derful and untold sights. The mar
velous animal that was a cross be-
tween harbed wire fence and a
monkey and the horse whose tail
was where its head should have been
were viewed with wonder. The ami
NAL show was highly instructive and
very amusing, while the deeds of
DIR. Gass'em" were constant
source of pride to his managers. The
great and thrilling melodrama, 1.-The
Villain Still Pursues," will long be
remembered as one of the most pa
thetic and yet thrilling marvels yet
witnessed. Many hearts glowed
with hope after they had been
cheered by the words spoken by the
palmist, Mabel Adams.
The French chefs, William Stein
er and Chalmers MeKarcher, distin-
guished themselves to a very great
degree. Before an admiring crowd
they prepared their famous hot dog
sandwiches, which were in great de-
mand.
The crowd also revelled in ice
cream cones, candy bars and cream
puffs. which were sold at one of the
booths.
The carnival, which was one of
the most enjoyable ever given by
the high school students. was de-
cided success as over 500 was
realized from the receipts.

SWAMP LAND MADE VALUABLE
How Mosquito Breeding Plague spo.
Was Turned Into Twenty Acres
Of Good Ground.

A notwithstanding swamp is not
only source of neighborhoOd discom.
fort and danger but also an economic
liability. Often it may be converted
into valuable asset by inexpensive
draining.
The United States public health
service notes an illustrative case in
Georgia, where, near the town of Mil.
len, an experimental operation was re.
Gently performed upon a 2O-acre
swamp. 1t was mucky place, nearly
all of it under water, with tree-stumps
plentifully scattered.
The operation consisted Of ditching
with dynamite; trench 1900 feet
long being blown with sticks of the ex.
plosive placed in holes two feet deep
at intervals averaging one foot. Extra
charges were used for stumps.
The resulting ditch averaged width
Of 71h feet at the top and depth of
3H feet. Total cost, including labor
and 1000 pounds Of dynamite. was
$270. When the job was finished there
was a freely running stream through
the ditch.
BY this simple and rapid means the
swamp was transformed into 20 acres

bers and to the state. In carrying out
this policy he has built up Legion
Service bureau which handles one
thousand ex-service claims a month
and department branch of the
American Legion News Service.
Early in 1921, when the Federal
board for vocational education pre-
pared to send representatives to six
teen centers in the state to examine
disabled veterans, the authorities
were handicapped by lack of pub
licity. Commander Vernon prepared
twenty thousand large posters and
placed them on every billboard in the
state. This was supplemented with
information to every newspaper in re-
gard to where every disabled man
should report to receive compensation,
vocational training and medical treat
ment.
When an unexpected number of
veterans enlisted for vocational train
ing. Mr.. Vernon appealed to 10000
business men to place the men in their
establishments. The merchants and
manufacturers responded with good
will and all the vocational students
were placed to good advantage.

NOT MUCH OF A DISGUISE
School Ma'am Not Likely to Pose as

A rather successful Hoosier school
ma'am has for one of her ambitions
never to look her profession so
that people can guess it when they
see her. So whenever she goes on a
vacation she poses as a stenographer,
clerk or a member Of some other
profession than her own. When she
left at Easter time she said that this
time she Twas going to be a widow

She succeeded in carrying off her
pose successfully, too, until the day
before she started home. Then on
that day she overheard the colored
elevator boy talking to a man she
had met. $50 she am a widow?' he
said.
"Yes," the man nodded his head.

INTER-COUNTY DAIRY TOUR.
Dairymen of Five Counties in a Days
Tour to Visit Big Herds of
R1nodod S<nrk

The first annual inter-county> dairy
tour including the dairy BREEDERS of
Sherburne, Anoka, Hennepin, Ramsey
and Isanti counties will be held on
Thursday, June 9. Anyone within the
county who is at all interested in dairy
cattle should make it a point to take
part in this tour. The committee has
arranged the trip in such way that
all attending from tEis county will
meet at Anoka at 8 a. M, on the
morning of June 9. Hero the Skcr-
burne and Anoia county breeders will
also meet and then continue on to Mr..
Webber's herd bf Gucrnseys and Mr..
Tenney's herd Of Jerseys at Lake Min
netonka; thenste- J.. B. Irwin's herd of
Holsteins, and from there to Universe
ty farm. The plan is to arrive at
University farm at noon and everyone
should bring picnic lunch along so
that all can have lunch together at
the farm. In case a picnic lunch is
not carried lunch can be obtained at
the cafeteria at.the farm. After lunch
the cattle at the farm will be shown
and anyone so desiring may go
through the barns and see everything
that there is to be seen. It will be
possible to see very good Individuals
of any breed at the University farm.
From University farm the tcur will
proceed to Arden farms and Ramsey
county homo, both Of which have very
largo Holstcin herds. A map will
be available to all who take part,
showing the various breeccrs along
the route, SO that if any wish to make
other stops on the way and not visit
some Of the scheduled places they may
| do so.
The herds selected are some Of the
best in the northwest and a large
share Of the foundation stock through
out the county traces back to these

herds. The time Of this tour will
come Immediately after very busy
season and everyone that can possibly
get away should welcome day off.
The whole trip will amount to about
$50 miles and will take just one day,
The trip will be well worth the effort
and will be worth much more than a
county picnic Of breeders. Remember
the day, Thursday, June 9, the first
annaul inter-county dairy tour.
It is hoped to have tour each year
and visit some of the breeders located
around the twin cities. Such an op-
portunity as this to visit some of the
very good herds around the twin cities
is not available to those more distant,
and therefore this tour should fill a
long felt need. To those who are

a Picnic."

r~-"+ "Picnic." : vel"
Many of US seem to have an idea
that "picnic" is a purely American
institution. Perhaps it is in the sense
of an outdoor party where all particle
pants contribute to the entertainment,
the serving Of the meal, and at times
the supplies which constitute it.
But the word is of French origin.
"PiQue-niQue" is the French term for
an informal party, mostly indoors, at
which each participant makes a con-
tribution to the table,
A French paper published in 1879
contains a sentence which shows clear
]y how different "piQue-nique" is from
'picnic," and how much more for
mality is required to comply with it's
rules:

"Go;nq Fishinq."

Now's the time for everyone with
the bug to go fishin'. The game hog
goes for fish-the real sport goes for
fishing. The one chap would clean the
streams and pickle the product for
personal use if he could. The other
would stock the streams with the
gamiest fish to increase the joys Of
fishing.
There is more than one way of show
ing you have been fishing. The in
creased health, vigor and tan give evil

fishin' puts pep into your thinking
and punch into your performance. Fish
