HIGH SCHOOL NOTES I "Behold how the gods pro|this tect. the guiltless." We had assem bled for music as usual .Monday af ternoon expecting nothing and hoping for less. We sang a num ber of patriotic selections as is our wont OH any occasion, of a pat|the riotic nature. We had finished singing at ihe usual time and had repaired to our respective seats, looking forward to another after noon of hard labor, stern lessons fearful recitations, mighty doubts 'and dreads and above all else to a quiz in physics—we had done and anticipated all this when suddenly like a gleam of sunlight, through the dismal and. foreboding hurri cane came the announcement by way of Miss Austin that there Bernard ft Canham Oxy-Acetylene Welders Have rented rooms in the Wahpeton Garage Company's new building, and are prepared to do all kinds of welding, such as steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, copper or anything made of metal, and do all kinds of boiler repairs. Will answer telephone calls from the country and will go out to make repairs of anything too large to bring in. Remember the place, Wahpeton Garage Company's building, Wahpeton, N. Dafc. Telephone call 157. Bernard ft Canham Oxy-Acetylene Welders would be no school for the remain der of the day. After the shock had passed and the assembly had received ample time in which to gain their equilibrium a joyous, exultant, liberated student body was dismissed.

S. basket ball "team visited the high school in the company of Hiram Putnam Monday afternoon indulg ing with us in our patriotic inusi ca.l program. That lovely and ever delightful topic known as 'Moonlight on the Lake," was '"ally discussed in that famous ethical society, the American literature society, at one of that society's sessions. Miss Fennel gave a very lengthy and interesting lecture on this subject, closing with the words: "Those who have not seen the gleaming of fair Luna's mellow light, as it glistens and sparkles on the uubri an azure surface of the lake and is reflected and reflected on each tiny little wavelet, have missed a most beautiful sight. I am happy to say that I have been fortunate enough to have seen this charming scene." Who would have thought it? lluth Douglass, professional known as Madame Sembrick II, is pianist this week. The following amusing incident occurred in the assembly room one afternoon just as school was about to have been dismissed for thai day: Miss Austin: "1 wish to see Leslie and Barrel after school, evening." Leslie P. (turning I to Barrel R. with a feigned look of surprise) "Then must have been some mistake." Miss Snvder. a member of the faculty, is at present confined in St. Francis hospital at Breck jenridge, having undergone an op era! ion because of a very serious ithroat trouble. The operation was 'successful and she is the road to recovery. We expt her back in Ischool in a week or ten days. The sympathy of the entire school is with her as she is very popular with the student body. Lo! What have we here Is it really true or do my eyes deceive jme? Charles Qniim (P.
