Fire was discovered on the roof of Mrs. Kettleson's house Sunday noon, having caught from a defective place in the chimney. An alarm was im­mediately given and help arrived in short order. Luckily the fire was dis­covered before it had gamed much headway, so after a few minutes of strenuous work it was extinguished with very little damage. Had it been a few minutes later it would have been impossible to have saved it in the strong wind prevailing.

The revival meetings last week were larg ly attended, the church being filled to capacity. Rev. Johnston opened the meeting on Monday even­ing, while on Tuesday Rev.

An old-fashioned dance was enjoyed by a large crowd last Tuesday night at I. O. O. F. hall. Music was furn­ished by Chas. Iliff and John Hayak, and the way that bunch kept time was a novelty. Evidently the musicians thought they might as well let them dance while they were there and kept them continually on the jump. Why, the men even had to remove their coats in order to be comfortable. Bert Iliff danced with all the girls and says he never had a better time, no, not even when he was a young man. Nial Neumann swung the ladies with a vim that left them almost breathless. No doubt there are numerous other tales that would prove interesting if one might judge from the amount of

we have missed hcv so much. How ever, her house caught fire Sunday, so perhaps sh doesn't miss the excite­ment of school.

All of us in the "upper four" joined the Little Citizens' league and named ourselves "The Beaver Workers of Zimmerman." We meet every two weeks. Our dues, which are 5 cents a month, are to be used as voted on, with the help of our advisor, Miss Bishop. Our officers are: Martin Charvat, president; Clifford Nash, vice president; Erma Briggs, secre­tary treasurer.

Wc hear that Ernest Meyer may not be able to attend the rest of the term, but we surely hope he will get better and come back to us.

We must take off our hats to Ed­ward Kiernan of the sixth grade for ho has the most stars for good de­portment.

Mrs. Conger visited the high school and found it so interesting that she didn't get to the grades.

Both the upper and lower grades grades have new library books. The way they were seized shows how we like to read.

Russell Stillman and Florence Nord-wall have been on the high school sick list and Lindsey Mode hurt his aim, but he claims he wasn't a bit sick.

The eighth grade is just cutting its teeth and "cramming." They r re de­termined to pass the state exams with with flying colors.

The grades joined the junior Red Cross some time ago with money ob­tained from the Hallowe'en progrcm. i Those who have been perfect in at-

delivered A d y ^ I r v i n g B e a n > E b b i c j e nnison. Miss Bishop: "Why do we need an

education, Albert?" "Because if we didn't have one, we'd all grow up to be farmers." Miss Bishop then gave us a trlk to show that the farmer is king of all he surveys, and that to be one is more desirable than otherwise.

Laurell Stillman is back again af­ter his illness and is making the sev­enth grade sit up and take notice as usual.

We, in the grades, wish the father of our country had had more than one birthday a year, for we surely dq. like those holidays.

The fifth grade has a new member, Letha Wilson, but she has been very ill with pneumonia, so we aren't very well acquainted with her yet.

Men Who Repair Skeletons. There are two kinds of skeleton-

menders—the bone surgeon and the skeleton-assembler. Art schools, medi­cal colleges, and students of anatomy require an accurately constructed skel­eton to aid in their work.

All the bones must be properly as sorted anil carefully put together. They are strung on fine wires. The skeleton-assembler must also pick out of the hundreds of odd bones that are sent him the 200 or more1 bones that belong to the particular individual be­ing reconstructed. It is not an eas>y task, and the price of skeletons is justified by the amount of work re­quired to construct them.—Popular Science Monthly.

May Use South American Wood. The Pennsjlvania railroad, owing

to the unprecentlented cost of railroad t i c , has decided to investigate the adaptability of the hard woods of Central and South America for this purpose, it is announced. Normally the Pennsylvania system uses from 5,000,000 to 6.000,000 ties annually The a\erage net cost has risen fully 100 per cent since the beginning of the uar. Furthermore, white oak, which the company regards as the mo«*t desirable wood for ties, is be-comins scarcer. Therefore, the com­pany has inquiries under way to de­tenu ne the comparative cheapness and duraoility of southern hard woods for railroad ties.

The Useless Bell. "The bell on sour house has been

out of order for weeks. I should think you would have it repaired."

"What's the use? Nobody ever rings it any more. Our friends just sit out in their cars and honk their auto horns until we come to the door."
