NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

lief to get back to cool Flagstaff.
 While in Phoenix the president went on hunting trip with George Judson, superintendent of the Osborn school near Phoenix.
 Mrs. L. B. McMullen gave supper in the domestic science rooms We'd nesday evening after the concert in honor of the artists of the Miller- Van der Veer company. Those pres ent were Miss Nevada Van der Veer, Reed Miller and the members of the faculty of the school.
 The Van der Veer-Miller concert gave delightful program at the Nor nal school Wednesday evening.
 Music from year to year is occupy ing a more important place in the school curriculum. In fact many high schools and colleges are giving credit for music thus indicating that music occupies an important part in liber- al education. Its value from a moral an aesthetic side cannot be excelled. Shakespeare in speaking of music said, "The man that has rot music in himself or is not moved with con- cords of sweet sounds is fit for trea- son, strategem and spoils."
 Too much cannot be said in praise of the Normal schools policy which makes it possible for its students and the general public of Flagstaff to hear such artists as Nevada Van der Veer and Reed Miller with their accompan- ist Mir. Willie.

The Normal football team played it's first game of the season Saturday with Winslow. Flagstaff lost the game without making score. The Normal coach and team do not practice mak- ing alibis and say that everyone played hard, but Winslow had the more experienced team. The Winslow team was heavier, had played pre- vicus games this season and the in- dividuals had played more football than the Normal individuals.
 The Normal men learned many things about themselves in the game with Winslow that should help them materially during the rest of the season, and have even better hopes of making showing in the rest of their games.
 The Normal team goes to play Pres colt tomorrow at Prescott. Prescott is supposed to be the hardest team in northern Arizona to beat, so the Nor malls showing against them will be somewhat of an indicator of how the season will go.
 Miss Payne, the girls basketball coach. announced that the first game of the season will be on November IT with Holbrook and will be played in Flagstaff.
 Last Saturday evening the Normal gave dance in Ashurst auditorium in honor of the visiting football team and her own team. Almost all of the football players on both sides were quite stiff and sore after the game but they danced and enjoyed the evening.
 Or Monday, October 31, at S:30 o'clock in Ashurst auditorium, the fac ulty of the Normal will entertain the students with a Halloween party and dance. This is an annual event and is always looked forward to with much interest. The hall will be decorated with everything possible suggestive of Halloween and the color scheme will be gold and black, the school colors. Refreshments are being planned by a special committee.
 Prizes will be given for the best man and the best woman costume sug- gestive of Halloween This is strict ly an invitation affair and masks will be lifted at the door when invitations are presented.
 The Normal and high school sem iors are planning a Thanksiving en- tertainment in the form of a novelty dance. This is another annual event of the Normal school and has already begun to create much interest. The general, decoration and refreshments tn1 ox.I are getting an early start on the prep arations.
 Mrs. R. H. Drake, Miss Margaret Walsh and MT. Ridgely went out into the woods Tuesday afternoon to gather typical green and decorations for the Halloween party to be given by the faculty. The snow storm Mon- day morning they feared was fore runner of heavier storm, so they got their decorations while the roads were still passable.
 Among the visitors on the campus this week were Dr. and Mrs. c. H. Hunt and party, of Bisbee. The party was returning home from a visit to Grand Canyon and stopped in Flag staff to visit Dr. Hunts nephew, R. M. Kimbro, who is attending the Nor maj. The party was Dr. and Mrs. Hunt and Junior, their son, and Miss K. Rogers.

SUNS GLOW CHANGES SHAPE

The Gegenschein. the mysterious midnight glow in the sky opposite the sun, is not constant in form. Prof. E. E. Barnard finds that in early autumn 1t appears as roundish diffused mass of noticeable light, sometimes 40 de grees or 90 degrees or even more in diameter. At no other point in its path is 1t so large. But in October 1t becomes smaller and elongated. a change believed to be due to the mingling of it's light with that of an auroral band reaching 1t at this sea son of the year.

Bridge Materials

All Bridges on the Line Will Receive
Immediate Attention to Put Them
in Good Shape for the Winter.

Five carloads of bridge materials
were brought in last Saturday, and
four more carloads are now in the local
yards, in preparation for practically
rebuilding all bridges on the local line
ut the hands of the Union Pacific, and
this work will 20 forward as rapidly
as possible in order that the bridges
may be put in the best possible shape
for winter use.
The long bridge over the Platte at
Saratoga will be rebuilt to n large ex-
tent, in order that it may withstand
the high water next spring, and many
new piling will be driven. This bridge
has been somewhat weakened the past
year by timber lodging against 1t and
by heavy washing about the piers
caused by a change in the river chan
mel. A Union Pacific piledriver was
employed to make temporary repairs
last spring, and the structure came
through the high water in good shape.
but much more work will be required
to prepare it for next springs freshet.
The track work on the local line is
going FORWARD rapidly and many thou
sands of new ties are now in position

Course of Erection and Part of Casing on Hand.

Developments of the past week would
that at last there is to be n
thorough investigation of the POSSIBLE
ties of the oil structure north and west
of Saratoga. The Southwest Petrol
cum Company, following the ADJUST

STOCKNIEN WOULD BUY UP
PUBLIC GRAZING LANDS
Natrona County Association Urges
Purchase by StOclmen Of Remain

Charging that the livestock industry
in Wyoming has been placed in jeopar-
dy by the encroachments of home
.steaders in taking up land fitted for no
other purpose than grazing. the Ma
roma County S-tockgrowers' associa-
tion in annual meeting at Casper last
week, adopted resolutions urging upon
Wyoming representatives i'm congress
the introduction of n measure author
izing the government to sell the re-
naming vacant unoccupied land to the
stockmen at $1.2j an acre on the 20
year payment plan, proceeds to be used
for soldier compensation. Discussion
of the matter brought out the claim
that much land is being taken up which
is fitted for no other purpose than graz
ing and the fencing of these areas
makes much |unoccupied land inaccess-
ible. Ex-service men would derive
greater benefits, IL is believed, from
the proceeds of the land than by taking
up homesteads.

their money and the other two are said
to have left the city. In addition, the
embryo government truck drivers were
told they would have to secure forest

to the forest office that the scheme be
came known, and the Officers were put

1t is estimated that from 10 to 20

likely that the stormy weather Of the

there was seen for the first time
since the war one of the most an

hounds of the Dowager Duchess of

SIX priests blessed the hounds
while huntsmen blew music on
their horns, and the hunting sea-
son was officially open. A large
number OF huntsmen were present.
The ceremony was held on the
anniversary Of st. Hubert, the
apostle of the Ardennes and patron
saint of the hunting field. 1t was
at the same point in the forest
that st. Hubert, son of the duke of
Aduitaine, saved his father from
being Gored to death. Since then

hounds in memory of the cour-
