mer's pupils Friday evening. A very
nice program was rendered which was
greatly enjoyed by all.
Several of the Normal Training
students from the High School Wis

Thursday. By present indications L.
H. s. will turn out several full-fledg-
ed school ma'ams" in the spring.
Mis- Bourn, public health nurse
made an official call last Thursday.
We hav- f uni it necessary to ask
for her assistance in several instances
and always find her eager to respond.
We certainly appreciate her help.
Commencing the first of next week
we are starting class after school
for scholars that are doing failing
work or are having especial difficulty
in any of their subjects. If your
child is asked to stay for this period
we trust that you will make it pos
sible for him to remain. In this way
we hope to give the child the extra
attention tha' we find it impossible
to otherwise give. Let parent and
teacher cooperate in raising the
standard of our schools by turning
out better prepared scholars.

MRS. MILLER ADDRESSES
WOMEN AT M. E. CHURCH

Mrs. Miller addressed large crows
of women and girls Sunday afternoon
at the Methodist church, with most
inspiring and interesting message.
She took for her text "Be We, there
fore perfect, as your Father in Heav-
en- Il perfect" She said in part:
ave cannot expect to be perfect
in this world, but we can be perfect
ed or mended. God Sees sea of bro
ken hearts, crushed hopes and shat
tered plans broken promises and
VOWS, all because somebody sinned.
"Some people are fragments OF
people; they give God that which
costs the least; their lives are shat
tered and useless"
"There is a department in the
church called the spiritual hospital
where church members have to go to
be repaired. God has some difficult
cases in this hospital and some men,
bers of the church when they are
needed the most are out of commits
sion and have to go to the repair
shop, and some soul has lost an oppor-
tunity."
400 much time is spent in the
repair shop, keep close to the great
physician"
"Our mind is compared to square
and Gods will to a circle. Before
the square can fit into the circle the
corners must be taken off and there
must be surgical operations. There
are two powerful operations neces-
sary, amputations and grating. Pre-
tention must come off before the
square will fit the circle. God hates
pretention. What we are not let us
not pretend, but what we are let us
be. Lots of church people are white
washed, but not washed white, and
when the world buffets us about it
shows, and the world detects it first"
"Lots of people are just veneered.
The world may not know, but in eter-
nifty, we take our real self"
"There are too many compromising
mothers. Some girls are put out
on the sea Of life without life boat. I"
when we give ourselves to Jesus
he gives us back ourselves better than
we were. There are people in Lib
eral waiting for you to speak to them.
Look in your heart and see if you are
veneered or pretending. There is no
pleasure that can take the place of
Jesus. Forget what you give up and
think of what you will get. We can
not compromise and be Christian"

SHED FULL OF HAY
TOTALLY BURNED

An old structure filled with hay To-
Gated just across the highway from
the Magnolia oil station on the Rock
Is! nd right y way caught fire just
before z o'clock tonight and was con-
sumed by the flames. No one seemed
to know how the blaze started, but it
made quick work of consuming the
building and contents. The strong
wind from the south blowing the
sparks over the big oil station made
things look hazardous for while but
when the stream from the fire hose
was played on the flames they were
soon subdued. The hay belonging to
jackson Brothers, and the building
to Mr.. Keen, both were total loss.

Mckinley SCHOOL
H. L. Ross, Principal.

Kinley and Junior High 7B boys re-
suited in 38 to 8 victory for our
boys. Our boys were all out and in
! excellent shape for this game and
they certainly redeemed themselves
for the defeat suffered at the hands
of Garfield last week. The Junior
High boys played nice game and
, made several neat plays, but lack of
practice and overconfidence played
good part in their defeat. There
is also possibility that our boys out
weighed them considering the team
I as whole. We congratulate the
7B boys on their true sportsnnanship
attitude and the fact that they are
good losers. We have one more game
on our schedule which will be play
ed with Garfield some time in the
near future. Present indications
show that this will be the best game
of the season,
Our school, with the pupils Of sew
eral annex rooms, had their picture
taken one day last week at the Nc
Kinley building. Mr.. Pate, our local
photographer, did the work and ne
promises us a picture that we can
well be proud to own, considering the
fact that he was compelled to include
the faculty, which will make his pre-
diction next to impossible to fulfill.
Any one wishing to obtain one of the
pictures may call Mr. Pate or Mr..
Ross. Mr.. Pate used his revolving
camera, which makes it possible to
make a photo of from twenty-four
to thirty inches in length.
We are glad to report that eleven
pupils in the fourth grade, and ten
in the fifth grade have been on the
honor roll in spelling for four weeks.
Miss Davis and Mis- Barnes spent
the week end at Fowler visiting the
latter's sister.
Little Lucy May Edwards fell from
one of the swings last Monday and
suffered badly bruised hip.
A number of our boys who attend
the Baptist church will enjoy a pic
mic Tuesday eve.
Mrs. W. G. Young visited our
school Thursday. We wish more pa
rents would avail themselves of this
opportunity as we are especially glad
to welcome the parents to come and
become more thoroughly Uniformed
in regard to the work their children
are doing.

Mr.. Mergler, the new Presbyterian
miniter, enrolled Thursday.

SIX MONTHS FOR
 KILLING FRIEND

James Briggs of Stamford, who pleaded guilty to a charge of man. slaughter yesterday before Judge Christopher L. Avery was sentenced to six months in jail. The circum- stances which were connected with the killing of his best friend, Arthur Doran were of such q nature that some punishment should be meted' but not grave enough to indicate that the shooting was intentional
 Briggs was tending bar for his brother in a Greenwich saloon, after midnight, July 2, and while taking the days receipts from the cash register, Doran, who had been in-the place for the greater part of the night. upon seeing the revolver, dared Briggs to shoot him
 Before IeveIing the revolver at Do- ran, Briggs turned back the barrel so that the hammer would strike empty chambers. He levelNl it at Doran, pulling the trigger once too often so that the hammer struck a loaded sending a bullet into Do ran's body Doran died and Briggs was held charged with manslaughter.
