Margaret Slavinsky and her Russian
chorus appeared at the junior high
auditorium to present an evenings en-

The performance consisted of three
acts the first a series of Russian songs

led by her daughter. The songs were
sang in the native language.
The second act was also a group
of songs, but somewhat Of different
nature. These songs of the group per-

variety. This group Of numbers were
sung in the native language.

Torrance consisted largely of dancing.

MANY FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
IN HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

Our high school, although it is not
exceptionally large, is we'll equipped
with fire extingushers and fire hose.
We have Ii fire extinguishers. Five
of them are new The other six al
though they are not new, are in excel
lent condition and ready for imffedi-
ate use. These extinguishers are placed
in various rooms and hall ways. There
is one in the janitor's supply room,
one in the large gym and one at the
entrance to the little gym There is
50-foot fire hose in the hallway be-
tween the two gyms. On the main floor
of the building we have four fire ex-
tinguishers. There is a large extin-
guisher between room IL and room
IS, and small one at the entrance
to room TO- There is another in the
east hall way at the right Of the main
entrance. We also have a 50-foot hose
on the main floor
On the upper floor there is a small
extinguisher in the chemistry and
biology laboratory At the east and
west entrances to the assembly there
are extinguishers and between the two
is another 50-foot hose. There are also
fire extinguishers placed at the east
and west entrances to the stage in
the junior high assembly.
The extinguishers are metal con-
tanners which have in them solution
of carbon tetrachloride When the
handle is pumped the liquid is re-
leased, the heat Of the fire causes
the liquid to form gas which spreads
over the fire like a blanket and
smothers it,

OUR FRIENDLY ENEMIES.

The scholastic activities between our
school and other schools often result
in emnity that sometimes reaches
hatred
The competition between schools of
this day and age should tend to bring
them closer together instead of sep
arating them like it usually does.

"A GIFT TO THE GEOLOGY CLASS.

Through the courtesy of Rev. r. w.
Orr, the Libby schools have received
a fine collection of fossils and silicated
deposits from the region surrounding
Bozeman. A friend of Rev. Orr's,
Charles A. Kinsey of Belgrade, makes
geology his hobby. He has unearthed
several valuable specimens of early
life, some of which have been added
to the museum of the Smithsonian In
stitute and to exhibits of various col
leges
Learning through Rev Orr that the
local school was making an elementary
study of the subject, Mr. Kinsey
boxed up a number of interesting
specimens and sent them with his
compliments and with the suggestion
that the school make proper study
and display of them In the collection,
he has included dinosaur fossils,
ancient sea life and some beautiful
specimens of petrified wood The school
acknowledges and appreciates the in
terest Of these two gentlemen.
Hardly week passes now that some
curious formation or some ancient fcs-
sill life form is not brought in by a
