NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES

In spite of the deep snow and de.
 layed trains, the Normal schoo
 opened very auspiciously. Three o1
 the boys who went to the southern part of the state by automobile were stuck between Ashfork and Williams and those living in the country south of Holbrook and Winslow are finding difficulty in getting in. The regis. tration on Tuesday was carried on as scheduled and regular class work was begun on Wednesday. A gain of twenty per cent in the number of boys registered over those registered last quarter is reported, with quite a number of new girls. The whole at- tendance situation is improving. While seven were graduated on December 22 twice as many have come to take their places. The addition to the number of boys will be a great asset in ath- letics as we'll as other things that boys can do and are wanted for.
 All the students who stayed on the campus during the holidays were quite disappointed gecause it did not snow enough during vacation to take a much planned sleigh ride that MT. Hcllar promised them. This disap- pointment was largely atoned for on Tuesday night after the big snow. A large wood rack was placed on the Normal's big bob sled. Four hohses were hitched on with harness covered with bells. Then with lots of blankets and furs to keep out the cold, about forty students and teachers piled on. It was a merry party. This was the first experience of sleigh riding for most of the party.
 Wednesday evening the fourth num- Der of the Redpath Lyceum course was given in the auditorium bv Mon raville Wood, the scientist and invent or. He gave demonstrations of the gyroscope and it's application to the aeroplane, the mono-rail car and sub marine torpedo. His revelation of the ultraviolet ray and other scien- tific wonders were interesting and educational. In his early days Prof. Wood was closely associated with Thomas A. Edison. He is the invent or of the two-button switch as well as many other practical devices.
 Prof. Woods entire program was filled with surprises and humor of a highly interesting and educational type.
 Saturday morning president McMul- len, MT. Ridgley and Mir. Drake hiked up on the San Francisco peaks. They made camp at an elevation of $500 feet in place commanding a view of the valley so that their camp. fires were seen from one of the dormitoriea of the Normal campus and at times when the view was not obstructed by colude they could see Flagstaff and surrounding points of interest very

plainly. Sunday they camped within five hundred feet of the saddle. They climbed to less than five hundred feet of the top but were prevented from going on up by very heavy snow cloud just above them. Monday morn- ing they awoke with six or eight in ches of snow on their beds, and tramped home through the slush that morning.
 Altogether the party had a very nice trip and also some novel experi- ences. It is almost unheard of for anyone to attempt climbing the peaks at this time of year.
 The Pine staff is working hard this week trying to get out their first edi- tion for this year. There was so much going on in all the branches and lines of school work, entertainment. ath- letics and all that the Pine was neg lected during the first quarter. Just before the first quarter was over the school body elected the members to the Pine staff and left it to them to get out the paper as the ysee fit. The paper Is to be the folder type, to he published each of the first two months of each quarter. In the third month regular quarterly edition will be published in book form.
 The first edition that the staff is working on now is expected to be out next week. This will be a trial edi- tion for the staff to work from in the future.
 Those on the Pine staff are: Fac ulty advisers, MT. Gunter and Miss Boyer; editor in chief, Robert Kimbro; business manager, Miss Louise Swift ger; athletic editor, Miss Lowitski; art, Miss Maxwell; editorials. Miss Fairchild; jokes, Miss Kapanki; scien- tific, Miss McGookin; alumni notes, Miss Kidd; soicety editor, Miss Hol- singer, and literary, Miss Frost.
 Tonight the entertainment commit tee of the Normal are giving a get-to- gether dance in the auditorium. This is one of the annual events of the school and something that is always looked forward to with much interest by both faculty and students. It helps everyone in getting back to Normal life" after the holidays and vacation trips and to get re<ec- quainted, also for the new students to take their places in the school ac- tivity.
 The Normal school orchestra is do- ing some very good work and making some wonderful advancements in technique, personnel, additional mem bers and instruments. They are play ing for various school affairs now and are going to play for the end mems dance to be given next month. The Normal now has an orchestra to be proud of and it is rapidly advanc- ing in quality.

POPULAR EDUCATOR
 DIES AT BISBEE

Charles F. Philbrook, for many years superintendent of Warren dis trict schools and one of the best known educators in the southwest, died in the Copper Queen hospital at 12:50 Thursday morning.
 Death came as a result of a stroke of paralysis suffered by Mir. Phil brook on Christmas eve just as he had finished assisting members of the miners and Legion Christmas tree committee in distributing presents to hundreds of local children. At that time it was thought that MT. Phil brook had merely tainted from over exertion, as he had worked long hours for several days previous. He

THESE GIRLS ASK
 WHEN TO SMOKE

When is a girl old enough to smoke? This question has cropped up at Columbia university and is pun zling hundreds of co-eds who want to be told why Barnard college rules say nothing about the use of the soothing weed in graduate dormitor- ies and prohibit those of the under graduates.
 Two undergraduates recently were suspended when they were caught smoking.

THE CAMP FIRE GIRLS


 We didn't have a meeting during the holidays. We all had a jolly good time, too, but we wish this good snow had come before the holidays or even a week ago.
 On the Thursday preceding Christ mas the Campfires had Christmas tree for the little Mexican kids. A big tree was put up in the kindergar- ten room at Emerson and all the lit tie tots were brought in. Santa Claus, alias Katherine Hillebrandt, came and distributed to the fully mystified children. Each and every one believed that they were getting their gift from Santa himself. After the tree and gifts had been enjoyed Adelina and Gilbert Martinez enter tained with a dance; then others were persuaded to dance and they all en- joyed themselves immensely. Santa even condescended to dance with An his McGookin.
 On December 23 Mrs. Gum and the Camp Fires conspired together for a
  grand surprise party for Velma Gum to celebrate her birthday (we aren't going to tell what year it was). We all met at Mrs. Kennedy's home and then noiselessly we went down the street to Velma's. Those present be- sides the hostess were: Anne Amelia Noble, Mary Lamport, Annis McGook- in, Agnes Switzer, Dorothy Hyde, Hazel Allsup, Mabel Fry, Marian Wal lace, Mary Wilson, Violet Raudebaugh, Miss Reinhold. After an evening spent in games and music punch and cake were served.
 There will be another meeting on Thursday and we have something nice in store because another group of girls have taken hold of the program.

CANNED SALMON MOVEMENT FROM
 SEATTLE GROWS
100000 Cases Moved in Last Few Weeks Eng
 lish Buyers Appear.

The movement of canned salmon on the Seattle market during recent weeks has been unprecedented con siderng the season of the year. ac cOrding to information received in Juneau It is estimated in some quar- ters that the volume of business done in the past several weeks is between 90000 and 100000 cases.
 The tone of the market is said to be materially stronger and the trade is encouraged over the outlook A statement from the Seattle Chambe" of Commerce says: Regarded as an encouraging sidelight is the jump in as it indicates that the British pack is virtually exhausted and hence out of competition with Pacific North west stocks. A few weeks ago. it is pointed out. United Kingdom buyers were scarcely interested in pink sal mon at so cents to 90 cents a dozen cans. Today, however, more favor able exchange and decreased trans portation costs mean that the Eng, fish broker can pay $l to $1O5 dozen and still lay down salmon in his home market at a cost even low CT than when he paid the 80 to 90 cent price"
 Haines Gees Prosperity
 A. F. Haines, vice president and general manager of the Pacific Steamship Company, is quoted as say ing his company anticipates the doubling of it's Alaska business dur ing the present year as compared with that of last year. He is also quoted as follows:
 "As a result of the revival in sal mon prices, cannery operations this year, it is expected, will double those of the past year. Last season the cannery plants used up all their sur plus of tin plate, boxes and other equipment and supplies. They pack ed less than 90 per cent of their nor nal output. For the coming season they must purchase new supplies in great quantities. They will send more men north. The national ad- ministration has awarded mail con tracts for the Southeastern and Southwestern Alaska routes as well IS for the westward route from Sew ard. The awarding of these con tracts shows that the administration is not only interested in Alaska, but is ready and willing to help in it's development in every way possible That is one of the most welcome signs of the times Early completion of the governments Alaska railroad is another factor. It will stimulate business in the region through which it runs. The decline in prices and in wages means that gold mining will begin to come to the front again in the north in 1922"

business interests are trying to get it for some new building. Those wishing to secure it for historical purposes have obtained an option ol the property and are seeking funds necessary to complete the transac- ton.
 The building IS well preserved and the quaint interior could be easily restored. it is said The historic rooms where Mary Todd spent her childhood and where she received MT. Lincoln are much the same as when she married and when she wis tied her old home after marrying Mir. Lincoln.

Prof. w. G. Nc Clure Dies
After Brief Illness

Mr.. r. c. Mcclure and Mrs. T.. j.
snyder received q telegram last Friday
announcing the death Of their nephew,
Prof VIM. G. Mcclure which occurred
Thursday night at Fulton. Mo. Ac-
counts OF his Illness were published IN
the NEWS last week and the week
before. Appendicitis caused his death.
The burial took place at Fulton,
which was the home OF his wife before
her marriage, The wife and a little
son, age eight survive. Also, his mr.
ents, Prof. and Mrs. George NJ Nc
Clure. OF Danyille, KY, two brothers
and one sister. The parents and
brother, Jasper, were with him during
the last days. His sister Mrs Ebert
iary Sutcliffe was there a few days
before.
Prof, Mcclure was only 80 years OF
age. but his unusual ability and eff
fieiency had already won for him the
high position OF superintendent Of a
great State institution. He went TO
Fulton as a member OF the faculty Of
the School for the Deaf In 1918, re-
naming as teacher until 1920, when
he was elected superintendent OF the
North Dakota School for Deaf.
The Fulton Gazette pays the highest
possible tribute TO Prof. Mcclure. We
can use only a part OF II:
mir. McClure's work with the deaf
was prominently successful. The child
OF deaf parents. he had deep sympa thy
for the deaf and possessed OF unusual
wInsomeness, he obtained and held
their confidence and affection. When
q, was announced to the pupils OF the
Missouri school In May, 1921, that he
was TO come back as superintendent,
they made an extraordinary demon
stration Of approval, while In North
Dakota when II was announced that
he had accepted the Missouri position,
his students individually and at a mass
meeting besought him TO remain with
them.
Ellis work at the Missouri school at
tracted attention throughout the deaf
world The official family OF the in
stltution fell In with him In his plans
10 raise its educational standards and
TO open up larger fields or service for
the deaf and the work OF the year
under his leadership brought most
happy results, Up 10 his last illness
he was working on plans for the en-
largement OF the school plant, for more
extended manual training courses and
for larger attendance. which at his
suggestion a number OF the members
OF the faculty are now spending the
summer In study away from home to
better prepare themselves for theit
work.
Few men that have lived in Fulton
have entered so heartily into the life
OF the town and more Willingly given
Of their time and talents TO the com
, munity. II Is not too much TO say
that by his brilliance. integrity, up
rightness and graclousness he gained
the friendship OF everyone with whom
he came In contact"
