B. U. SUMMER SCHOOL.
Plans for School and Entertainment
Assuming Shape.


| of a Jolly bunch of our own boys
who have been away for a college
year. They are a recognized part or
! the Ellsworth summer, and as wei
come as the birds of spring. me
| bows who have been here one or two
years realize this, and are anxious
| for the time to come when they can
| take boat or train for Ellsworth, and
some of them plan to be here in adj
vance of the opening of the summer
school.
The school will open this year on
! June |. which is earlier than usual,
and about. a week before the high
| school closes. Accomm odation for
| the classes for the week before the
| high school building is available
| has been provided for in Odd Eel
| lows hall and other halls.
| C. E. Bellatty, director of the
| summer school, and John Waters,
registrar of the College of Business
| Administration, have been in Ellis
worth few days, primarily for a
little rest, but incidentally to take
up a few matters of preliminary ar
rangements for the summer school.
| 1t was Mr.. Waters first visit here,
but says he hopes it will be found
necessary for him to spend few
days here in the summer. After this
visit, meeting the people of Ellis
worth and hearing how they refer to
] the summer school boys, calling
many of them by their given names,
he says he can understand why the
boys who have been here are so en-
thusiastic about coming again.
Among other matters taken up
with the board of trade while here
was the matter of some form of en-
| tertainment for the boys on the five
school holidays that have been as
signed. Mr.. Bellatty found it was
only necessary to mention this to the
| board of trade, and the matter was
taken out of his hand. These
special days, details of which are to
| be arranged by committees from the
| board of trade, are as follows:
| June 2-Reception
| June 19-Deep-sea fishing trip,
out of Manset, with a lobster dinner
for those who do not care to go out
in the boats.
July 4-Carvinal The B. U. sum
mer school boys will join with Ellis
worth in making this the liveliest
Fourth in Ellsworth for years
Among the events of the day will
probably be rifle-shooting ,tOurna-
ment. Four of the men of the B. U.
| rifle team, which is cleaning up all
the colleges of New England, will
be here2Frank Amelssie, captain of
the team, Capt, Frank P. O'Neil, U.
S. A., Lewis C. Pitcher and r. C.
Smith. Six of the ten men on this
team made perfect scores in one
hundred shots in recent match
a worlds record for team. A pro-
gram of water sports will also ap-
peal to some of the summer school
experts in this line.
July 2S-Picnic at Molasses pond.
| August 1S-Clambake at La
moine.
Hollis E. Anderson will probably
be in charge of the mess hall again
this summer. He satisfied the
boys last year, and they would like
the same mess-hall force again this
year.
Arrangements will probably be
made with Harvey Pickett to put a
wireless telephone outfit, with
megaphone attachment, in the as
sembly hall in the Odd Fellows
!
the wireless concerts and service
| now being sent out. Another
pleasure in store for the boys of the
summer school is a promised adj
dress by Justice L. B. Deasy.
1t is expected that between 1875
and $50 boys will be here. Perhaps
more than half of these will be of
last years school. There will be
| q tura
| Guiding six from South America, and
Tarvin Guptarak, sophomore, and
Nom c. Patipan, freshman, both
from Bankok, Siam.
The faculty this year will include
some familiar names, while others
will be here for their first year.
Principal Abernethy of the Ellis
worth high school will be on the
faculty this year, teaching class in
second year French. Other in
structors will be Prof. Hugh Babb,
Prof. Leo d. O'Neil. Prof. VIM. G.
Hoffman, Prof. Atlee l.. Percy, Prof.
Oscar F. Smith, j. Montgomery
Isenberg and Henry G. Honeywell.
| Dean and Mrs. Lord will be down
for the opening of the school, and
will probably spend part of the
summer here.
Lee c. Hascall, of the trustees,
will probably return this year.
c. E. Hostettler, in charge of
commercial education in the United
States, who was here last season, is
coming for a week this summer,
| with Mrs. Hostettler.
Accommodation is wanted for
about ten married couples. This is a
matter of vital Importance to a few
of the boys, who cannot come unless
they can bring their wives. Op-
portunity for light housekeeping is
desired by few, while others wish
just rooms, and can arrange to take
meals at the mess hall. Cottages
also are wanted. Those having
these accommodations or. cottages
are urged to list them with H. c..
Stratton, secretary of the board of
trade.
