Teacher, Miss Watson. Instead
of a quarter holiday for this four
weeks period, the first grade had
a regular grown up party. All
busted off their party manners
and had a good time. The decor
atoms were green n white.
Eva Pipal, lone Stanley, Doris

off Of the list. We have 80 In
dams in our list. About 40 of
them are being cut off of the list.
At 4Oc per day of attendance this
is going to mean a heavy loss to
the Wolf Point school and a heav-
Ter loss to the Poplar
public schools. The Fort Peck
officials are not to be blamed.
The ruling is from Washington.
40 pupils are taking piano les
sons as a part of the regular
school work. Mrs. Severson and
Mrs. Shipman are the teachers.
1913 children are taking bible
instruction each Wednesday after
noon.
Tom Barton has gone to Glas-

There will be a school matinee
on Thursday afternoon. The
youngsters like to see Jackie Coo

list with 9S. William Sand has a
perfect 100 for Roosevelt.
Alvin Wiebe has SO for Pioneer.
The other rural reports have not
been checked yet. Some of them
are not in.
We hope someone will soon

cut a tremendous hole in atten-
dance this year in all schools
Cloth town and country. Small
pox is still picking out the few
left overs who would not be vac
cinated. Children with colds bet

themselves. Colds often lead to
pneumonia at this time of year.
Sometimes I think many young
sters ought to be ducks. Every
puddle has it's attraction. They
will pass up a dry cement side
walk for a path through a puddle.
The teachers have been talking
to the grades about taking chances
with trains. Mr.. Swedberg has
noticed some of the northside
children taking unnecessary risks
in crossing ahead of moving
trains, crawling under and be-
tween cars. If a train prevents
a child from getting to school on
time, we always give satisfactory
excuse. We urge them to wait
until the train has gone by.

He showed why Montana should

Montana withdrew her support

The Civil wal was fought over the
principal of notification. Mon

New Indian Ruling
Mr.. Livingston was at Poplar
last week checking On the Indian
children of District As. The In
dian department has made a very
severe ruling in regard to tuition.
The government will not allow
tuition for any child whose par
ents have taxable property, even
though the taxes are not being
paid. Children under one-fourth
blood are also cut off the list.
Again there are a number of In
dian children who through n
cause or another have lost their
rights. These are also cut

The surprising efficiency of this engine is aug
