Jessie Bishop is quite seriously ill.
Mabel Perry has retired from the 9th grade and school.
Mrs. H. C. Smith was a visitor at the East ward building, last Friday.
The choir was slightly reorganized, last Monday,—with a new pianist.
Miss Jennie McClung of Indianola has been assisting Mrs. Cordeal in the 1st grade room, for the past two weeks.
The quartette was unable to sing at the concert, Friday evening, as E. E. Magee's vocal organs were slightly impaired by a cold.
Miss Nora Stroud returned from her vacation in Kansas, last Sunday, and has resumed her duties at the South McCook school.
It was announced on the programs at the concert, last Friday night, that the loan exhibition of lantern slides would begin this evening.
We had a merry foot ball team,
That was just wild to play.
But for some reason we know not
They never had the say—if they
could indulge in a game, so each member went off alone and quietly disbanded himself.
The concert, last Friday night, was a charming success, both in a social and financial way.
About $30 of full legal tender were taken in, which will be of a sufficient quantity to liquidate the outstanding indebtedness incurred by the visiting teachers of the association.
Pupils of the high school will have to know how to read properly before they can have their promotion cards signed, and now, most likely, the pupils will devote themselves to studying reading to the neglect of some more important study, which will not be much of a gain in the end.
It is reported that Ernest Cordeal is to play a cornet solo at one of the lantern classes in the near future. Ernest has made great strides with the above mentioned instrument, lately, as people living in that neighborhood say he can be heard at a much greater distance now when practicing than he could be two or three weeks ago.
