The Home of Our Forefathers.

The home of our forefathers! Yes
the home of our forefathers is being
built in the first grade room Of the
South Side this week.
1t is autumn and the trees are o
cred with gold, red and yellow leaves.
The chipmunks are gathering hazel
nuts for winter.
Poor old forefathers had to cut
down large trees to build their houses
in the wilderness! If they had not
endured hardships we would not have
been in Glasgow now.

400 Aim Street, Bern Switzerland,
Oct. 25, 1922.
Dear Readers of the Glasgow Courier:
Since we last wrote l have taken a
trip from Munich, Germany, to Bern,
Switzerland. AS I was walking down
one Of the streets one afternoon l
became acquainted with Mrs. Agassiz
who lives here in Bern. She asked me
if l wouldn't sit down and have a
"chat" which / did very readily.
l asked her about Switzerland and
the different portions of it. She told
me many things n being that she
could speak two languages German
and French). The people in the south
ern part speak Italian and a little
French while the people on the east
ern part speak Austrian and German.
Switzerland is surrounded by four
countries, Germany, France, Italy and
Austria-Hungary," said Mrs. Agassiz.
"Our land is very mountainous so that
it protects US from other countries
and besides Switzerland is what you
would call a buffer country. If Ger
many should try to rule us, it would
have a war with the other countries
to that's how we remain independent
in spite of the fact that we are sur
rounded by large countries on al
Sides" said Mrs. Agassiz.
"Our country is divided into twenty
cantons. They are not very large"
"What are cantons?" l broke in
From what she told me l understoo,
that cantons correspond to states il

Our Music Contest,

Our music contest started on Mon
day, Nov. 9Th. On Wednesday Miss
Herman played the first three pieces
which were as follows:
Humoresque, by Dvorak,
Largo, The New World Symphony,
by Dvorak.
Barcarrolle, by Offenbach.
The pieces were all very pretty, but
l thought Humoresque was by far the
prettiest because it gave you a glad
and happy feeling. 1t also made you
want to get up and dance.-Ellen Ly-

Evalyn Michel made a very at
tractive poster illustrating the things
made from flax. On the poster is a
piece of linen, a bottle of linseed oil,
some linoleum, a piece of celluloid and
some other things. When we were
over to the court house she showed it
to the different teachers. She told
something about flax too.-Jane Lewis
Last Tuesday afternoon the pupils
of the sixth grade had a Halloween
party. The girls decorated the room
with black paper cats, owls, bats and
hideous looking witches. There were
large jack-o'-lanterns with their ugly
eyes and noses. That afternoon those
that were dressed in costumes
mached into the seventh grade room
to show themselves off. For refresh
ments they had popcorn, peanuts and
apples.-Faith Smith.

Our room has been changed quite a
bit this week. The flag that once was
above the door has been changed to
the front of the room. All of the
Halloween decorations have been TAX
en- down. The big wasp's nest is still
in the back of the room. l guess our
teacher left that there to scare us
when we start cutting up. But it
doesn't seem to scare us much. The
teacher has moved her desk to the
back of the room now. She said she
moved it so she could face US when
we tell our language stories in the
front of the room. We will also have
to talk much louder now so she car
hear US. l think there was also an
other reason for moving her desk bach
there too.
The pupils in our grade as we'll as
the teacher wish that someone woult
donate a long table so we could USE
it for a reading table. We will have
to do a lot of reading SO we a write
interesting stories to the Courier iron

WOMAN SAYS FLAPPERS
CANNOT Be REFORMED
Scolding Won't Stop Girls From
Demanding Rights of Vices
of Men.

Likening "happeritis" to the disease
of women's rights and the feminist move
ment,' DIR. Lucille Liberles, in an adj
dress at Baltimore, on Tho Modern
Girl the other day, said there is found
"the same denial of authority, the same
neglect Of conventions, the same in
dependence, recklessness and expendi-
ture of energy without the presence of
the minor symptomatologt of the
iapPcr.'
IL read very opportune article a
few weeks ago which spoke of the flap
per IS forming the left wing of the
feminist movement" said DIR. Liberties.
Just as women are demanding equal
rights with men TO work in the business
and professional worlds, so the happer
is demanding equal rights TO all habits
and vices which it has taken men gen.
erations TO acquire"
DIR. Liberties said she knew of no spe-
cific for the disease. The causative
agent must first be discovered before
one can combat the disease intelligent
w." she said. Each patient must be
studied individually and treated in an
understanding manner. Scolding, coerc-
ing, artificial restraints and restrictions
are without effect and, if anything, tend
10 intensity the condition and render it
more serious"
