SCHOOL NOTES


Friday, October 12, the first Stu dent Body meeting was called by the new president, Josephine Harvey. One question brought up was wheth- ed to continue or discontinue the school paper. MT. Whaley made a motion that the paper be dropped. This motion was carried. Donald Richfield's resignation as yell lead CT was accepted and Gertrude Good rich was elected in his place. Mar iorie Johnson, appointed by the pres ident as chairman of the music pro- gram committee, was given the pow CT to appoint the other members of the committee. After the business meeting the remainder of the period was turned over to Supt. Rasmussen. <
 Supt. Rasmussen explained the purpose of the Honor Society of the Wrangell High School. In order to receive an Honor pin each year a pu- pill must have so many points to his grade. Marjorie Johnson received the torch pin signifying that she has made at least eighty points. John Everson, James Whaley and Juanita Lewis each received a two-bar pin signifying that they have fifty points or more.
 D-sr A. Az -fx weeks period, the past week was period of apprehension and restless ness at the high school. caused by the presentation of examinations to the pupils by the various teachers. Re- port cards were given out on Tues day, October 18th. These were the reports of the first six weeks of the year and consequently the grades were not so high as might otherwise have been expected.
 
 William Lewis, a Junior, started school Monday morning. He is a member of the basket ball team and a pupil of good standing. He has lately been employed at the Wran- geu Lumber and Power Company.
 Girls of junior and senior high are making preparations for the es- tablishment of Girls League which will assist in carrying on va rious school activities. This is the first time that such a league has been started in Wrangell.
 On Wednesday, October 10, the seventh grade organized class club. Loyd Goodrich was chosen president, Cherry Sorset, vice president and Aida Lewis secretary. A motion was made that a name be chosen for the club. The motion was carried and it was decided that the selection of a proper name be left to the next meeting. It was also decided that each pupil should bring five cents apiece to pay for a notebook in which to keep the minutes of the meetings.
 The clever posters displayed in the windows of the business houses this week, advertising the hospital bene- fit card party tomorrow night, were made by the teachers of the grade school.

Help Kidneys
By Drinking
More Water
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and
Help NeutraIize lrri-
tating Acids

Kidney and bladder irritations often
result from acidity, says noted au-
thority. The kidneys help filter this
acid from the blood and pass it on to
the bladder, where it may remain to
irritate and inflame, causing a burn
ing, scalding sensation, or setting up
an irritation at the neck of the blad-
der, obliging you to seek relief two
or three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread; the wa
ter passes sometimes with a scalding
sensation and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in voiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call
it because they can't control urina-
ton. While it Is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
often one of the most simple ailments
to overcome. Begin drinking lots of
soft water, also get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from your phar-
macist and take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast. Con-
tinue this for two or three days. This
will help neutralize the acids in the
system so they no longer are a source
of irritation to the bladder and uri-
nary organs, which then act normal
again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia, and
is used by thousands Of folks who are
subject to. urinary disorders caused
by acid irritation. Jad Salts causes
no bad effects whatever.
Here you have pleasant, efferves-
cent Whitewater drink which may
quickly relieve your bladder irritation.

Mellon Family Richest

The Mellon family is probably the
richest in America, with the Ford,
Rockefeller and Baker families fol-
lowing in the order given. This is
the conclusion of writer in the Bos-
ton News Bureau, financial newspa-
per, who says that, based on actual
value of securities and asset values of
other property owned, the Mellon fam
lily heads the list. The 4,390,716
shares of Gulf Oil company stock held
by the MELONS is cited as one reason.
And this is only one of the big indus
tries in which the Mellon family is

tradition and proposing, such prece-
dents are plentiful enough. There is
for instance, the case of Priscilla,
the Puritan maiden, who didn't put
the question direct, although young
Alden would have been a dullard in
deed if he didn't know what she meant
when she said "Why don't you speak
for yourself, John?" Somewhat similar
is the case of the late Adelina Patti,
who is said to have remarked to the
man who later became her husband,
when he told her that all Paris was
saying that they were engaged, "Well,
why not? am sure / will be happy"
Another instance is the late Queen
Victoria who invited young man to
be her escort and made him her Prince
Albert. She was bit slow in popping
the question, so the gossips say, and
nearly lost him.
Which brings to mind that her great
grandson, Edward Albert, prince of
Wales, despite the anxiety of the
whole British Empire over the ques-
ton of when he is ever going to
marry and make sure that the House
of Windsor will have future line Of
princes of Wales, still seems very
much content to remain a bachelor.
He is, therefore, one of the most elig-
ible men in the world for some leap
year proposing. OF course, it simply
'cawn't be done" in the case of Ed
ward Albert David Windsor, but
judging from all the fuss that was
made over him when he visited this
country year or so ago and the way
In which he was sought after by
matron and maid alike, even he would
not be safe from leap year proposals
If he came to America again In 1928
If some fairy should promise the
average girl that one Of her leap
year proposals should be accepted by
any one of three eligibles she might
name, it is doubtful, however, if the
prince of Wales would be the first
on her list For Miss America seeking
a husband-that-m ight-be has new
hero who holds first place in her af-
fections. In the United States army
he is known as Col. Charles A. Lind
bergh, but to the whole world who
has thrilled over his exploits in the
air, he is ''Lindy." And what Amer
lean girl would not place "Lindy"
ahead of even the prince of Wales
in her list of three?
Going on the assumption that they
would be two of the three, who would
the third man be? That might be the
most difficult selection of all, for there
is a great variety in the opportunity
offered to the girl who wishes to ex-
ercise the prerogative of woman pro-
poses" this year. This years crop of

famous single men include not only
an internationally known aviator and

There's list for you! Leap year,
girls-Get your mani"

was enacted in Scotland which read
as follows:
1t is statut and ordaint that during
the rein of hir maist blissit Megeste,
for ilk yeare knowne as lepe yeare, ilk
hayden layde of bottle highe and lowe
estait shall haze liberte to bespoke We
man she likes. Albeit he refuses to talk
mir to be his lawful wye, he shall be
mulcted in We sum ane pundis or less,
as his estait may be: except and avis
gift he can make it appeare that he is
betrothit ane ither woman he then shall
be free.
Perhaps the custom goes back even
further than that, but whatever its
origin it has become fixed part
of our social tradition, even though
it is probably more of popular joke
than an actual custom, limited to reg
ular four-year periods. For the men
who are bold enough to say that they
know all about women will tell you
that
First, then, a woman will or won't, de-
pend ont,
If she will dot, she will; and there's
an end ont.
But If she won't, since safe and sound
your trust is,
Fear is affront, and jealousy injustice
Aaron Hills cara"
Which, in the case of popping the
question:" can be translated into the
statement that If she decides to pro-
pose, she will whether it's leap year
or not, and if she doesn't so decide
it wouldn't make any difference to
her if every year were leap year.
Fiction furnishes several examples
in support of the above statement, as
for instance in William Dean HowellS'
story, "Dr. Breen's Practice" where
a real proposal comes at last for the
heroine herself, the lover being too
slow in coming to the point so she
helped him along.
Frank Stockton, in "The Late Mrs.
Null" takes humorous view, placing
his hero and heroine outdoors in an
advantageous place. Being sure of
this desired catch, she said: "Mr.
Croft, / am going to give you your
chioce. Would you prefer being re-
fused under cherry tree or syca-
more" There was a smile on her lips
which he did not quite interpret, but
he said, 81 decline being refused I'M
der any tree" swell, / prefer the
cherry tree, and there is just the one
nearby"
And if we believe what we ''see in
the papers," leap year proposing this
year is neither a popular joke nor
fiction, but a very live fact. Here is
the news story that came from EN-
poria, Kan, recently:
Emporia's bachelors, at least 100 of
them, are rallying to parry thrust
made at them this week when Probate
Judge MILFORD Riegle published in an
Emporia newspaper a list of men
whom he declared were the most eligi-
BILE bachelors in the city. Judge Riegle
presented the names with the sugges-
ton that, this being leap year, the men
would be available for marriage, and
he recommended each one on his list.
The news of the publication of the
| list spread rapidly. Telephones began
| to ring and the bachelors were fairly
| swamped with calls from women. AS
| result the men have organized pro-
| tective alliance.
Millions for defense, but not one
| cent for matrimony," was the motto
| adopted.
