High School Student Deceased
The Reporter, this week, is forced
| to chronicle the saddest event in the
history of the school, viz, The death
of Madeline Arnett.
Madeline was splendid student,
beloved by both faculty and all the
members of the High School Her
quiet ways, faithfulness and reserve,
had gained for her a host of friends
who had learned to recognize her
sterling qualities.
Madeline has not been in good
health all year, but through it all she
bore her suffering without complaint
and tried to carry her school work at
the same time. This left her in such
a weakened condition that she was
unable to resist complication of in
fluenza and pneumonia.
She passed away quietly on Friday
morning at about two o'clock.
The funeral services were held at
and interment was made at the home
stead beside her mother who had pre-
ceeded her in death six years before.
Several beautiful floral gifts were
offered as a final tribute to our dear
student and classmate.
New Radio Set Tuned In
The radio set the physics class has
been assembling was tuned in Satur-
day night and worked splendidly. This
radio is duplicate of the very ex-
cement one assembled by the JacoDs
boys at Paxton. The school now has
two sets. This will be sold at just the
cost of the parts.
Inert Quits School
Inert Amundson withdrew from
school Wednesday to go out to the
ranch to take care of the cattle. We
hate to see Inert quit at this time.
Lloyd: Have you heard the B. v.
d. Orchestral"
Donald: mo, is it good?"
Lloyd: "Oh, its only one piece"
Power Tubes Arrive
Power tubes and additional batter
les for our power amplifier have ar
rived and have been tested out with
satisfactory results. The instrument
provides sufficient volume for our
auditorium with but little distortion.
Amplification in radio is like using
a hard needle on the phonograph You
get more volume but less perfection
inreproduction. Or, it is like enlarging
a picture; all the defects are enlarged
as we'll However, for large audiences
several stages of amplification are
necessary, and the power amplifier
is supposed to give a minimum am
cunt of distortion.
A radio concert will follow the
program Friday evening.
On Yo' Way
boy does yo' get a letter from de
Ku Kluxxes, what you gwin do wit
it?"
Read it on de train"
Limerick
Afellow who hailed from Oshkosh
Had about as much brains as
squash;
All corners he'd round
With two wheels off the ground,
And now he's an angel, b'gosh!-
Farm and Fireside.

that Washington's birthday is still
school holiday as they failed to show
up Thursday afternoon. They are now
quietly serving their sentences, by
staying after school writing out an
swers to missionaries given them
by Mr.. James.
