Notebook

Probably to no one has the war
in the Philippines, and in Bataan
in particular, been more interesting
than to Mr.. and Mrs. c. B. Col
lines of FL Centre for it was their
home for a number of years-in
act they we're married on the
Pampanga river just 40 miles from
Bataan, the wedding taking place
almost 40 years ago.
Both went out to the Islands as
teachers, Mr.. Collins having been
assigned to a post on the Island
of Masabate where they lived, af-
ter their marriage, for some two
years before returning to the
States.
The province of Masabate is To-
Gated on the San Bernardino
straits which divide Mindanao and
Luzon, and when Mr.. Collins first
went there, there was still fighting
going on in the back country He
was assured that an army detach-
ment would remain at the post fol
six months, but the detachment
left after the young American had
been there six days, leaving him
with no military protection, and
also no interpreter. With the help
OF the COMPANY cook and the SER
geants 'muchacho" who we're left
behind, he picked up enough of the
language to get along, and he and
Mrs. Collins both had a workable
mixture of Spanish and native
dialect which served them well.
All the country which the United
States and the Philippine troops
have been defending for so long
and SO bravely, is home to Mr. and
Mrs. Collins, and in Mr.. Collins
opinion, judging by his former ex-
perience, guerilla warfare will con-
tinue for some time to come.
Many years were relived recently
by A. H. Keller, a f e C ii o n ately
known to his friends as Pop" KEEL
lar, who in April went back to
Upton, Iowa, to attend the centen-
NAL celebration of the Upton un-
ion school which he attended in
1873 and 10, the school then moving
| to new building.
The old building, which was re-
modelled into a private home, is
still there and this school was the
first high school to be established
west of the Mississippi. Private
schools existed but this was the
first public high school and was
opened in April, %, 1912. On Febr-
uary l6 of 1880 it was abandoned
For the centennial celebration a
pageant was one of the highlights
in which the history of the school
was portrayed, from the days of
the town fight over whether or
not the school should be built to
the present time In the first days
the idea of free public education
was not so popular, many tax
payers voicing strenuous objections
to paying taxes for the education
of some one else's children. Mr.
/ Keller says that he remembers
when the new school was built in
1880 there was big argument over
the bonded indebtedness which
reached the terrible sum of $4,000
but that when he returned this
last time, he found the community
was keeping pace with the times
for the indebtedness for the present
school is slightly over 100000.
Two from California, one of
which was Mr.. Keller, we're present
for the celebration and out of Mr..
Keller's class of IA only six are
now living, but one of his teachers
is still alive and Spry as ever was
at the reunion.
But, says Mr.. Keller, in Upton
they don't call me Pop" they call
me Homer.

But whether you choose one OF
