REVIEW OF IMPORTANT WEEK

This may be said to be pre-univer-
sity week. The work of preparation
in all departments has been com
pleted. The public has answered
handsomely to the appeal made some
time ago for accommo dations but much
remains yet to be done. An import
ant feature has been the work of CO.
operation. The chamber of COM
merce has been active, and on all
sides citizens have aided in the work
credentials from the high schools
have been above the average this
season. From many outside states
the applications have been numerous.
Another feature is that for the first
time students who take up the cour-
SEES at the school of mines will have
the benefit of cooperation from the
U. S. bureau The week has shown
also that the high schools, the grades
and the primary have been started
under the most suspicious of cir
cumstances, and that all incoming
teachers have found good homes. The
tribute paid those who responded was
a graceful act on the part of the
SUPERINTENDENT. In trade circles the
heavy receipts at the grain ware
houses have made records That far
mers are shipping grain goes with
out saying and prices have shown
somewhat of tendency to go up.
There appears to be a demand for
grain In ex-soldiers circles the
drive to wipe off all claims against
the government has begun with two
representatives on local departments
appointed. Council has met and paid
attention to the pure food laws by|
ordering. an amendment to its dairy
products ordinance. The medicos
have been active at their meeting on
questions of treatments, clinics, and
surgery. The new White Way for|
Moscow is nearing completion. The
Methodist conference has had it's
bearing on a large congregation i'll
Moscow And the program of side
walks and curbing has kept pacel
with other improvements. The week
has been one of Importance and it is
on the cards that the fall will see
houses go up in many of the resi-
Dental sections.

The vice president and the secre-
tary of the treasury are the silent
men of Washington. They move
but efficiently. If they
each had bass drum, they couldn't
catch up with Josephus Daniels in a
thousand years in a personal public
