SCHOOL NOTES

Harold Woodward, Valdez Greenig,
Violet Hoover and Patsy Seheffler.
The Cordova school sent a number
of spellers and readers and other
books to the Kennecott school for use
in their night school.—D. B.
The High School had its quarter
holiday on Friday.
Eugene Tibbs has donated a book to
the school library.—B. L.
A few of the High School pupils
have been helping Miss Keever stamp
the new library books this week. They
will now soon be ready for the pupils
to have.—E. T.
This month the pupils of the High
School spelling class are receiving per •
1 cents to be proud of.—E. T.
Miss Keever read a play about good
and bad speech to the pupils of the
ninth grade, and then asked them to
write one. ’Most all did fairly well,
but some had not paid strict attention
to the assignment and wrote theirs
in story form. They were required to
rewrite them.—Pauline.
The freshman class in English has
been studying “Silas Marner” in a dif
ferent way lately. We have been ask
ing each other questions on a chap
teer, which makes the work very in
teresting. We have found that the
teacher hasn’t such a “snap” as we
thought. It really requires as much
work to ask good questions as to an
swer them.—D. D.
► Friday the pupils of room four had
earned their stars to have a holiday.
Some wanted it and some didn’t, so
they voted on it. Twelve wanted it
and six didn’t. The majority won.
Miss Keever has made rules that
no schoolboy can throw snow at any
ladies or children on the way to or
from school. We all think this very
satisfactory, as some injury might re
sult from doing so.—P. DeV.
' The general science class is pro
gressing nicely. We have made sev
eral interesting experiments. One day i
during a science period Mr. Townsend I
explained the process of heating the
school house. He showed us how
the furnace works. He explained the
working of an eraser-cleaner he had
made himself. It runs by water power.

A Little Nonsense
They Didn’t Ride "Cyclopedias”.—
A hook agent approached a farmer.
"Sir,” said he, “those are mighty
fine hoys of yours.” _
“They are, stranger. The finest in
this part of the world.”
“I reckon you buy them anything
, they want.”
“Why, sure, stranger; T buy them
them anything they need, whether
they want it or not.”
“Then, sir, let me sell you an en
cyclopedia for them. There’s nothing
e>se that will benefit them so much.”
The farmer looked at the agent in
astonishment. “Why, stranger,” said
he, “them boys of mine don’t need no
cyclopedias. They ride hosses!”—Our
Dumb Animals.
A certain young sophomore who
was very ignorant liked to pretend
she had traveled very extensively.
One day a freshman asked: “Have -
you ever been through algebra ”
Sophomore—Yes, but I went through
during the night, so I missed the
sights.”
“Get off my feet.’’
“Aren’t they made to walk on?”
“Yes. hut I want to reserve that
privilege for myself.”
A Bismarck schoolma’am who had j
been telling the story of David ended
with, “And all of this happened over _
three thousand years ago.” A little -
cherub, his blue eyes open with won
der, said after a moment’s thought,
“Oh, my! what a memory you have
ftot!”
Thickly Depopulated.—“Can any lit
tle boy or girl tell me something
about Belgium?” asked the chairman
of the board of trustees, who was vis
iting the village school.
“Belgium is one of the most thickly
depopulated countries of Europe,”
promptly responded the brightest boy
in the class.—New York World.
* Fresh—\^hy do they have knots on
the ocean instead of miles?
Soph—Well, you see, they couldn’t
have the ocean tide if there were
no knots.
In the second year history class one I
of the pupils, in writing of Julius
Caesar, quite unconsciously supplied
the name of Julius Eltynge in place
of Caesar’s. There is something in a
name, after all. _
