The appeal of Cue bowling alley Is still strong but the sunshine \culls some to baseball and the plans of others tend toward getting the ten nis court In shape and' playing tenr nia. The problem Is, will the boys with these 'attractions utill stick to their studies? 1 They must not fail to remember that their studies are of prime im portance and should have hrst place. All the sports are good if lessons are not neglected. None of the boys have challenged Prof. Harden to bowl as yet, although there have been offers of two prizes bqered to the boy who succeed In npt bowling the members 'of the faculty. Possibly the boys are practicing up and yet intend to try their teachers skill on the alley.

Last Friday we planned lor un "Old Fiddler's Convention" but it rained the ''Old Fiddlers" away. Not withstanding the rain, the trustee's and patrons with a great many neigh bors, came with lunch boxes which we sold for about thirty cents each, then having two cake wnlks. We made a nice little sum of ten dollars. We will use u part of this money preparing for field day. The children are delightd with the idea of getting to attend Hold day, and are trying hard to prepare for it. Hoth teachers and pupils are expecting a nice day. Lnst year we bought a new three hundred dollar piano. Ily having lit tle parties of different kinds we have almost paid tor It. Once the young people of the com munity, who have finished school, ar ranged a good play for us from which we realized farty-flye dollars. Then another thing was to have a pig. One of the patrons gave him to us, a tiny baby, and we found nearly twenty dollars in him when school closed. We fed him almost entirely on the scrapes from the lunch baskets. Sometimes the children would bring him little buckets of milk. I think by the time wo have our convention again, and have a play we are planning, we will have finished paying for the piano. The piano Is so much help in the opening exercises. The honor roll for this month will appear In this paper lafer in the week. We enjoy the Educational Page. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO o ?
