SCHOOL NOTES
Macbeth"

Now that the High School has seen
Macbeth, there is time for retrospect
and sohloquy.
The High School congratulates the
Junior Class and their advisors upon
the results of their splendid and
well organized advertising campaign.
The circular letters and posters
which the class prepared and sent out
to the schools in the surrounding
territory sold the entertainment so
well that 450 advance ticket sales had
been made to students and adults
from outside of Redwood Falls.
Miss Fallon was in charge of the
advertising and advance ticket sales.
Mr.. Clipfell acted as supervisor of
the ushers. Miss Everett took charge
of overseeing the sale of candy, while
Mr.. Limburg ably acted as cashier.
The class home advertising and
ticket-selling campaign was equally
effective, as before the doors opened
and all reserved seats had been sold,
a final checkup showed an attendance
of SOS paid admissions. In addition
to this, number were turned away
and others did not come at all because
they learned of the complete sell-out.
The play itself ably presented by
professional actors proved entertain
ing and instructive. Redwood Falls
students who now are making a study
of this play find that this presenta-
ton of Macbeth was valuable sup
plement to their classwork. Similar
expressions were made by the stud
ents and teachers of the other schools
attending.
Financially too, the venture was
successful. The financial condition
of the Junior treasury now is such
that they will not, this year is in
former years, have to solicit as large
a financial donation from their par
ents for the Junior-Senior banquet.
All in all, having Macbeth played
in Redwood Falls by the professional
actors was an unusual opportunity.
The students are unanimous in voic-
ing of their appreciation to those who
made it possible to have the play
presented here. They also unite in
expressing appreciation to all those
who supported the program by at
tending.

throws. If all the "Niggar Babies
were knocked down, prize was re-
ceived.
The Freak" show contained the
Human Faced Donkey" which was
picture of yourself in mirror; "a
Big Bat" baseball bat in a cage;
Deep Sea Fish," some canned fish
in a pail of water; and the Smallest
woman in the world" a dress and
arms pinned to a sheet with head
sticking out hole cut in the sheet
and shoes from the bottom of it.
The Chamber of Horrors" was in
the basement. On the stairs crow
like creature put your hand on some
liver. Ear piercing shrieks accom-
panied you to place where snakes
were visible by candle light. The
stairs was the exit.
"The Hot Dog and Pop Stand" was
the means of getting refreshments.
1t was probably the most popular
stand in the carnival.
In the center of the room tables
and benches had been arranged for
the "Bingo" game. 1t was reign
ing favorite.
"The Circus Act" consisted Of some
Human Tumblers," some "Wild
Horses" and Mischievious children.
The Junior High School wishes to
thank the teachers and students for
a very enjoyable time.

Happiness

What is happiness? Webster says
it is the state of being successful or
satisfied. What words could better
describe it? When success crowns
your efforts, are you not satisfied?
And satisfaction brings happiness.
Each one of us is given an equal
chance to possess happiness or salts
faction both in school and in later
life.
In school we are given definite
assignment each day. If we prepare
this to the best of our ability, there
is within US a feeling of satisfaction
that comes only when we do our best.
Has not everyone had this feeling?
If in future years we continue to
do our best and do it honestly, this
feeling of joy will remain within US
and we will receive more from doing
our best than from being slack.
If each and everyone would think
this over and continue to do what is
right, this world would indeed be a
much happier place to live in. We
would all be able to share in its joys
and good times together.

nlval night.
Upon entering the gymnasium each
student was handed a pack of tickets
These were for admittance to the
various booths that had been prepar-
ed for our entertainment by the
teachers and students.
The booths were made Of sheets
which were brought by the different
members of the Junior High School.
"The Fish Pond" called for a green
ticket and when you fshed your catch
was almost always bright cap, a
sack of confetti or candy.
"The Popcorn Stand" sold popcorn
for a white ticket. That stand was
a great favorite. "The Wheel OF
Chance" gave you a chance to spin a
revolving arrow for blue ticket.
If the arrow stopped in marked
portion, the prize was yours.
"a free booth! Everybody come to
see the finest Baby Show in the
country" were the cries of the bark
er who barked for ''The Baby Show"
The show consisted of two chambers,
the first showing pictures of famous
babies and the second a real baby.
The baby was big boy dressed in pink
and blue with another boy attending
him as nurse. The nurse was dressed
in white and made a particularly
amusing spectacle.
The boys tested their skill, accur-
acy, and speed at the "Niggar Baby
stand. Upon presenting a black
ticket each person was allowed three

minute period, Miss Aske presented
a suggestion to the assembly. She
said that if the students desired it
they would be allowed to talk between
classes. She brought out that if
this suggestion went into effect it
was expected that asking permission
to speak during assembly periods
would be reduced. We agreed to the
plan and beginning Monday morning
it is to be tried for a week. If it is
satisfactory it will continue and be
considered as regulation.
We are going to do our duty in
seeing that is to be satisfactory.
A stand for the large dictionery
has been placed in the northeast cor
ner of the assembly. 1t was made
by the manual training department.
Assignments this past week have
contained much review. Among as
signments for next week the detest-
ed word, examination" appears
rather often.
The past few days we have been
having number of fire drills. From
all indications there would be abso-
lutely no danger in case of an actual
fire.
On last Wednesday evening the
Girl Scouts held meeting in Miss
Melin's room. The general business
concerned new scout pins, meeting
night, and the work of the organiza-
ton for the coming year. Miss Mel
in is the captain of the troop and
Miss Kotasek is her lieutenant.

Editorial Comment
SPANS BID FOR RECOGNITION

SS~SVsS
Like the east. for many years Spain watched the pro-
prosperity and was content with its memories of its own
past fame and wealth. But Spain has awakened and the
opening of its international exposition in the city of Sc
vile Is a proclamation to the world at large that its days
Of manana are over.
Spain has taken philosophically the loss of its world
empire whose last remnants were Cuba and the Philip
pines. It aspires no longer to colonies and it is believed
would gladly withdraw from Morocco If it could be &C
complished without loss Of prestige. All Spain now desires
is a cultural empire, and it is particularly ambitious to be
the center of affection and cultural inspiration for Latin
America. where, now that its material dominion is a
thing Of the past. it is increasingly loved. King Aphonso
has long contemplated trip to South America and there
is a possibility that II he comes overseas he will visit the
United States also.
Under the dictatorship Of Primo de Rivera. Spain has
been making a bid for recognition of the travelling public.
It has been building fine roads and erecting modern ho-
tells throughout the kingdom. Students have long been
going to its cities and its countryside to search its records
and to write Of its ancient glories. But more and more
tourists are also visiting 1t and the Seville exposition will
probably be a magnet this ummer that will attract
thousands Of travellers. The exposition is splendidly
staged. its buildings and surroundings are handsome and
dignified. Not the least attractive of the structures are
the three fine buildings put up by this government, one
Of which will permanently remain and will be used as
the United States consulate In Seville after the exposition
closes.
America, both north and south, has many ties with
Spain, and It will be the hope of the people of the United
States that the Seville exposition will be a success and
the opening Of q new day for the Iberian peninsula.

A DANGEROUS ATTITUDE

It seems to be quite the thing nowadays so to obscure
the real purpose OF courts and court procedure that JUS
tice becomes subordinatcd to the showmanship of the
legal talent. And too often the presiding judges LEND
themselves to the carnival for fear that they VIII DC over
Swallowed and appear inconsequential to the gallery.
The law seems to be clear enough in defining crime and
punishment, but court procedure appears to be designed
to place obstacles in the way OF tho laws effectiveness.
Lawyers apparently arc concerned primarily with their
adroitncss and rcsourcefulness. giving the administra-
ton Of Justice secondary consideration.
The fact that a defendant is a confessed murderer un-
der unmitigating circumstances only spurs the present.
day barristcr on to find new ways to circumvcnt and de-
feat the purpose Of the law. Regulations arc made not In
promoting justice but in thwarting it.
Perhaps sentiment against capital punishment plays
some part in this attitude of the criminal lawyer. So
ciety would like to believe that something resembling q
principle or an honest conviction is involved.
When the efforts, or antics, of defense counsel arc In
tended to insure a fair trial guaranteed to all by the con-
stitution-no legitimate objection can be raised. Dis
gust grows out Of the grave suspicion that lawyers for the
defense in some cases intend to be unfair to the state and
hence to society.
It is q species of dishonesty for the state to set up one
thing as law only to discredit 1t by legal practice. II
capital punishment is wrong. the state should recognize
the iniquity and draft its laws accordingly. instead OF let
ting clever criminal lawyers take the law in their own
hands.

BAMbOO SHOOTS

There are q number Of foods which
have been used since time imrnemor-
ial In China and Japan which have
not yet attained much recognition IN
this country. Among the most valu-
able of these may be found bamboo
shoots which ere a favorite succulent
vegetable in both China and japan.
The young shoots Of the larger var
ieties Of bamboo are usually selected
for eating. They resemble In appear
ance, though much larger, the shoots
of the asparagus plant. Large speci-
mems may be several inches In al.
ameter and weigh several pounds.
The most tender part grows UNDER
meath the surface, and for this rea-
son they are usually dug out and
broken off. They may be banked
with earth In q similar manner as
asparagus to produce a greater length
of underground shoots.
The flavor, which resembles the
artichoke, and the firm, solid flesh.
are highly attractive and are a valu-
able addition to the ordinary non
starchy vegetables. There are q NUM-
Der Of different methods of prepar-
ing them, the simplest manner being
to boil them in plain water. After
wards they may be favored with but
ter or other sauce. They may also
be cut into thin slices and French
fried in oil until cooked. They may
also be added to soups and stews,
boiled and sailed and dried, or
picked or candied.
The bamboo is really a tree of the
grass family and In its native country
a grove OF the large type may resem-
BILE q forest. The smaller species
grow bush-like in the shade Of the
larger trees. The edible fruits Of the
different species may differ greatly,
some having the appearance OF grain,
others nuts, and others as fruits.
Seeds of some species are edible. In
this country, they rarely develop into
maturity.
In any Of the larger cities of Amer
lea it is possible to secure the bamboo
shoots in q canned form, and in those
cities where there are Chinese mar
kets 1t is possible to buy shoots in a
variety of forms.
Bamboo shoots make an interest
ing addition to common foods,
and although they are more expensive
than most of vi non-starchy vege-
tables, I think 1t is a good plan to
use such foods occasionally in order
to vary the diet and keep u meals
as interesting as possible.
Those who try living on diets which
I suggest in this column will often feel
q lonesomeness for certain foods such
as the starches, but those who SUBJ
stitute q sufficient quantity Of the
n~on-starchy vegetables will not no
tice the loss Of starches so much. !

tetic errors which practically every
one makes Is to use too large an

MORGAN'S RAID

On June a, 1863, Brig. Gen. John
Hunt Morgan began his spectacular
confederate raid into Indiana and
Ohio.
Morgan wa ordered to attempt to
draw Union troops from Tennessee
by an expedition into Kentucky. He
exceeded his orders and, breaking
through the Union line in Kentucky,
he marched north and northwest to
the Ohio river and crossed to the In
diana side.
He had with him about 5000 cav
airy or mounted infantry and four
field pieces of artillery. He swept
around Cincinnati, closely pursued
by Generals Hobson and Shackleford
and opposed everywhere by the mi
litia.
A sudden rise In the Ohio river al
lowed gunboats to reach Burlington
Island and prevented him from re-
crossing the river. Here about TOO
Of his men were taken prisoners. two
companies succeeded in crossing the
river and he, with the remainder, set
out toward the Pennsylvania border
to join Lee.
After an exciting chase he wa cap
tured at a place three miles south of
New Lisbon, O., and was afterward
confined in the Ohio state prison at
Columbus. November ~ of that year
he escaped with q few companions,
and reached the Confederate lines In
safety.

DARROW'S UNIQUE CAREER

An American career that has no American parallel Is
that Of Clarence Darrow. who has held the spotlight OF
public attention longer than any of his professional con-
temporarics who. like him, have not dabbled in public
life.
It Is strange news to those who have known OF this
man only during the last 20 years that he first came into
prominence as q corporation lawyer. and one Of the best
He made much money and a great reputation at that bus
mess. but he doesn't boast of it now, because he regards
the days he spent in the service Of corporations as largely
wasted years.
His abandonment of the practice OF corporation law
followed a change Of heart. He was converted. and no
penitent ct = revival meeting was ever converted more
completely and permanently. That conversion amounted
to . decision that nothing else in life was SO well worth
q lawyers doing as to seek justice for those who seem ia
have small chance Of getting 1t. So he started on the
career that has made him world famous as the great
advocate Of the under dog.
This is no attempt to estimate his career at the bar and
his influence on the administration of justice. It is simply
to point out that at all times he has done what he wished
to do, undeterred BY fear Of punishment or spurred by
hope Of reward. Therefore he has been ono of the con-
spicuously successful men Of his time.

NARROW
New York Times

President Buffers commencement address at Columbia
was marked by the directnesS and courage in dealing
with public affairs to which he has accustomed us. His is
one Of the voices that utter words which no one can
suspect Of self-Seeking. It is his habit to strike his hand
upon the spot and say: Thou ailest here, and here.
The particular tendency which he deprecates in our ma
tional attitude just now is that Of looking only to local
and immediate advantages, without considering the
larger and longer interests which unite US in a common
concern with the whole world. DR.. Butler is especially
many Americans to rush to Washington to secure per-
sonal gain through tariff laws. To them, he declares,
the international questions which are all the while be-
coming greater and more urgent mean nothing whatever.
They give not q single thought to "thc economic and
financial rebuilding Of a war-hroken world" They fancy
that they are exemplifying q spirit Of pure and worthy
nationalisrn. but do not see how in the act they are dis
crediting and harming the very nation which they
profess to cherish and serve.
These remarks are peculiarly opposite. coming as they
do just after the great achievement at Paris. There some
Of our best American minds have been working tor their
country with the highest possible motives. and with a
true grasp Of the value Of International relationships to
the United States today. The final settlement. arrived
at after four months Of indefatigable labor and uncon-
Querable hope, win undoubtedly be Of great benefit to this
nation. while at the same time 1t contributes enormously
to I 9 stability and happier outlook Of all Europe. In
this splendid result We zee nattonaMsm lifted out Of its
selfish limitations and made . blessing not only to the
citizens Of this nation but to those Of other lands. 1t is a
fine illustration Of the truth that he who makes his
country the world serves 1t best.
This Is because today the interests OF any one country
ar tied up in one great bundle with those Of the entire
earth. 50 when Mr.. Owen Young and Ais associates re-
turn nome with this magnificent gift in their hands. they

citizens Of the world. In them national spirit Is success
