Were the public school teachers,

great was the 'demand for such

cMi.tiir.ifd as, during the past few
years but additional courses have
been added and special hour-- have
been arranged to convenience many
who could not come except for Sat

The daily work at Br'ainerd seems
to be a pleasure to both teachers
and students. Much interest was
shown Wednesday morning, Oct. 3
when students were given a chance
to become members of any club
of their second choice. . The organization
'of various clubs, with
teachers as snon-orers nf flv? ncti
vities, is another one of the extraearricula
fixtures of the school
to combine work and play in such j
a way as to have some constructive
results.,
Thursday morning, Oct. 4, our
former president and wife. Dr. &

?
Mr. B. L. Martin, made it possible
for the Brainerd group hear a

Pa. . Dr. Glasco gave us a very
timely message about the import
tanee or having faith in Go;lr ones
