JUST DRAGGING A BIT.

Why is a newspaper unless it can blow its own horn a bit
occasionally Away with modesty when you have chance to
boost your own business. OF course we might do our Dragging
in our advertising columns but since this space belongs TO MS, well
just turn it loose right here. -
DO you know that your little home paper told you the news
OF the acceptance OF the Separate peace" agreement by the shop
men, at least fifteen hours ahead of any OF the big dailes that
come TO Chekasha?
This was devidedly one OF the biggest news items OF the week.
The reason why the Daily Express published it first was because
it broke" in the afternoon. long after the large papers reaching
Chickasha had been printed, and also because the United Press
beat the other news agencies to it. The news which the United
Press leased wire, working from 7 a. m. till 3 p. m, delivers to the
Daily Express is the news of the day, not yesterday, and lit is print
ed today. The other afternoon papers received in Chckasha must be
printed early in the day in order to be delivered here in the after.
noon and, therefore, they cannot print all of the late news OF the
day. The irresistible conclusion is that you must read your home
paper il you want the news up-to-now.
Another thing: Did you observe that one OF the large after
noon daiies coming to Chckasha brought the news Thursday that
the Rock Island had accepted the separate peace" settlement?
You could scarcely have overlooked it, il you saw the paper at all,
because it was spread over the front page in box-car headlines.
You didn't read that in the Daily Express for the simple reason
that it wasn't news-it didn't happen. Instead, you read in your
home paper that no such settlement had been effected. In the
rush OF the days work, all news gaherers make mistakes, but this
time it was not the United Press that pulled the bone" The Daily
Express does its utmost to give its readers news that is strictly
reliable. 1872 III
That will be about all for this time. Some day, when YOU are
whoopng 1t up Tor home industries, and home things in general,
DO a little boosting for your home paper. Every little bit. helps
thank you. N

TURKEY N GREECE.

Having rejected the counsel of the allied powers, and called
back Constantine, who was known to be most objectionable to

IAN oLD-FAsHIoNED HOME"
is EVANGELIST'S THEME

"An Old-Fashioned Home" is the
subject of the free lecture which
Mrs. Hostetter will give Friday
evening at eight o'clock at the Carl
son chapel.
The evangelist gave this address
to a delighted audience in Sparks
and was requested to repeat it to
the Parent-Teachers' Association at
their annual melting. Since she has
no time for repeating messages she
advises that these organizations ar
range to attend in a body Friday
evening.
"Mrs. Hostetter is a Charming
Speaker"-so one of the Fallon
papers stated when she was in meet
ings in that city.
Another paper commenting on her
work says: "Her discourses are log
ical, plain and delivered with an
earnestness and tenderness which
only comes from one whose being is
aflame with love for God and man."

week. Thirteen pupils are to take
the eight-grade examinations. Di-
plomas will be awarded to those
graduating on Friday morning,
June 9, the closing day of school.
No graduating exercises are to be
held this year on account of the

stituted as a closing exercise for
the eight-grade pupils as we'll as
pupils of other grades.

PLAN MEMORIAL
DAY OBSERVATION
American Legion Post of This CITY
Assured Supreme Judge Ducker
Will Be Here to Speak in
Honor nf Those Gone

Preparations for a Memorial day
program to be held next Tuesday,
May 80, are being made by Vernon
Robins Post of American Legion,
under the direction of Tiffany
Poulin, vice-commander. 1t is ex-
pected that an official program will
be given out within a few days.
Plans for the order of the day,
however, as announced by the vice
commander this morning, include
speaking at the Nixon opera house
in the morning, after which various
orders will march to the cemetery.
Supreme Court Justice E. A.
Ducker of Carson City has been
secured as speaker, and L. o. Haw-
kins will act as chairman. Mrs Don
Copper has been asked to sing. 1t
is expected that the pupils of both
schools will march to the cemetery,
where a short service will be held.
Professor J. d. Scott is to deliver
the Gettysburg Address. The pro-
gram will no doubt include several
other numbers when all plans are
near completion.
1t has not been determined as
yet whether red poppies will be had
this year, to be worn by citizens
as they were last year, but it is
understood that an effort will be
made to secure them.

NORMAL SCHOOL
HERE NEXT YEAR.
One-Year Course for Teachers 10
Be Part Of High School Bene-
faction With Three-Year
Certificate for Pupils

A county normal school will be
part Of the Humboldt county high
school curriculum beginning with the
opening of the new semester next
September, in which graduates Of
this and other high schools may en-
rol. This announcement was made
following conferences between State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton w. J. Hunting, Principal J. D.
Scott Of the high school and mem-
bers of the high school board Of
trustees.
For the normal school a room IL
to be fitted up in the high school
building. This course will cover one
year here, which will entitle stud
ents taking it to a three-year
teachers certificate in any public
school in the state, and q further
advantage is that the year thus
spent here will entitle the student
to credit for one years work at the
University of Nevada, in case he
or she should decide to attend the
institution later, presumably after
he or she should have earned
enough money teaching school.
Teachers for this course are to be
paid by the state, thus saving local
taxpayers any added expense.
This year of normal work should
be of great advantage to many
pupils who feel that they cannot
continue their college career as they
have had hopes of doing, as there
is no time limit upon when they
must enter the university, and in
one or two years any energetic
pupil should save enough from his
teaching to put his through the
university for the balance of his
course.
High school plans discussed for
next term also included the pro-
posed domitory and a survey is
now being made to determine the
number of students to be provided
for, that building Of proper size
may be leased. It is the plan to
furnish dormitory quarters for out
of-town students at actual cost. It
is thought in this manner that the
expense attaching to school atten-
dance will be materially lowered,
thus increasing the number Of
students in attendance by making
it financially possible.
While here, Superintendent Hunt
ing highly complimented the high
school body upon the work being
accomplished.

FAREWELL SUPPER FOR
HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS

Seniors of this years class at
the high school will be guests of
the juniors tomorrow night at a
supper to be given in the gymna-
SUM at the high school building.
That great fun will be furnished
is evident from the fact that all
senior girls are required TO attend
in short dresses and hair down their
backs, while the boys are to wear
knickerbockers, peterpan collars,
windsor ties and rolled socks.
While the supper is to be the main
event of the evening, it is certain
that the seniors will be objects of
various stunts and that they will
long remember this farewell party
given in their honor.

RIVER WATER RECEDINC
BUT RISE is EXPECTED

Farmers and garden growers are
rejoicing over the May shower
which visited this section today.
While causing a little discomfort
to the few pedestrians on the
streets who were clad in summer
attire, and little worry to the few
pround owners of straw hats DON
ned for the first time this season,
the general effect on this COM
munity is expected to be all good.
The water in the river this morning
has receded to nine feet six
and one-half inches, but will prob
ably raise before night. Prospects
for crops and range this year ap-
parently are improving daily.

CARNIVAL TO BE HELD FOR
GRAMMAR SCHOOL CLOSING

Something entirely new in the
line of closing exercises for the
grammar school is being planned
for Tuesday night, June 6, and it
is expected that the affair will not
only remain as most pleasant
memory in the minds of the chill
dren but in the minds of the
many of of the grown-ups as well.
A real carnival is being planned,
the whole thing to take place on
the grounds of the grammar school,
which will be made festive by
dozens of chinese lanterns, and it
is understood that full moon has
been ordered. One of the main
features of the evening is to be a
fish pond which is to contain fish
and catches of many descriptions,
fishermen to be allowed to angle
for the prizes for a small fee.
Various other carnival stunts will
be arranged, and what will probably
appeal to many Of the older people
will be the dancing in the assembly
hall.
Credit for the success of this
carnival will be due to Miss Jessie
Diamond, principal of the grammar
school, who is the originator of the
plan. All who have attended the
different school exercises which have
been given under her direction will
look forward to this one with keen
anticipation.
The money to be realized from
this carnival is to go toward making
final payments on the new Sonora
baby grand phonograph which the
grammar school purchased a few
weeks ago, and for which all pay
ments previously made have come
from similar entertainments given.
This phonograph is used for singing
and for physical training exercises,
being used by the little tots as well
as the eight-grade pupils. The
new Sonora replaced the old Victor
phonograph which has been in the
grammar school building for prac-
tically six years, the old one being
used mostely for marching.
A large attendance is hoped for
and plenty of fun is promised
everyone.
