The Bainville Trip
The two Franks, Catlin and
Livingston. took the Wolf Point
music memory and spelling con-
testants to the Bainville contest
last Friday night. 1t was fine
trip in every way. Our contes-
tants were: spelling, Frances Nah
lum of the French school, Tena
Penner of the Wide Awake and
Freda Ann Chamberlain of the
CITY schools. There were "a spell
lers. The rural pupils did much
better this year than last. Fran
ces Nahum was the first OF our
team to go down. pivot" stopped
her. Tena Penner found "coulee"
was too hard to cross. Freda bat
tied for dear life and had her op-
ponent wobbling more than once.
However, Miss Waldron of Froid
recovered her poise and Freda
started to weaken. They were on
the last column of the second list
when Freda stopped on the word

who won the music memory con-
test, is expected to represent Wolf
Point if their list is similar to our
county list of records. The mu-

music. Twenty records were |
played at Bainville. More details |

schools and made a big hit. Mr..
Penner furnished Tom. Tom re-
ceived little coaching and gave
the play away at Wide Awake.
Evelyn Nahum, Lucille thinner
man and Nellie Funk took the
parts of the three elderly ladies.
We wish to thank Messrs Staples,
Herman and Styer for their cars.
The patrons in the country appre-
ciate your help at these school
affairs. The Liberty program was
almost a duplicate of the one at
Wide Awake Humorous recita-
tions were given. There was
some misunderstanding about the
names of those who recitated but
they are believed to be Willard
Nahum of French; Frances Lund
of Liberty; Ruth Schultz and
Thelma Blankenship of Volt. AS
a result of the spelling contests
the race for the Volt field meet

and Wide Awake school each have
a credit of so points. Dry Fork
