NOTES OF INTEREST FROM THE NORMAL i | i INCREASED ENROLLMENT. This week completes half of the first year’s work in the new State! Normal School at Bemidji. During the fall term which closed at Thanks- | giving, not a single student who en- rolled at the beginning dropped out and a number of new students have| been added during the winter term.!| In' phe elementary department, consisting of the Kindergarten and| first four grades, many more children ‘have applied for admission than -cm’:I}g be received. e winter term will close Satur-| day, March 6. I SPRING TERM OPENING. The spring term will open Tues- | «day, March 16, and continue till! June 3. There is much inquiry by prosepective students concerning the school and undoubtedly the spring| term will see 3 still further increase in the attendance. SUMMER SCHOOL. Beginning June 14, a six weeks summer school will be organized and the indications are that the enroll- ment will be much longer than last year. Many of the last summer stud- -ents have indicated that they will re- turn and many new ones will enter. THE WOMANS BUILDING. Work is progressing on the new «dormitory and the contractors say that the building will be completed by May 1st. The Normal School Board has already placed orders for most of the equipment. This build- ing when completed will provide Tooming accommodations for fifty _girls and a larger number for board- ing. Room and board will be furnisheg at cost. Already students are be- ginning to reserve rooms. This may be done through application to the President or Secretary. - The location of the Normal School in the beautiful thirty acre campus of native trees on the lake shore, to- gether with the excellent coursesl offered and the accommodations pro- vided, will make the summer session one of the best found anywhere. The bulletin for the summer school will be out soon. Provisions will be made for all courses desired for cer- tificate purposes and regular credit will be given toward the Normal School diploma. The State Board of Education recently has arranged to discontinue Teachers Summer Terms at the Farm Schools in Crookston, Morris and the University Farm. These students wil be provided for in summer terms at the State Normal Schools and the University School of Education. PRESIDENT AND FACULTY. The President and faculty are in constant demand at teachers’ insti- tutes and community meetings. Dur- ing the fall term Miss Kavanaugh of the Rural Department, gave all her time to Institute and Field work. Other faculty members also partici- pated in various meetings in different <communities. - This week President Deputy will give = addresses at Fosston, East -Grand Forks, Crookston, Eldred and Neilsville and will visit the Univer- sity of North Dakota in the interest of the Normal School. All of these are intended to be of mutual help to students, teachers, patrons and the Normal School. COMMUNITY WORK. A significant feature of the work of the Normal School is the Commu- nity Classes in Physical Education which meet in the Gymnasium of the Normal School each Tuesday even- ing. Seventy people are enrolled in this work, making it necessary to di- vide the class into two sections. Mary L. Deputy is the instructor. SATURDAY CLASSES. Since the holidays the Normal School has changed to the plan of holding school on Saturdays and not on Mondays for the following special Teasons: 1. Under present train - service out-of-town students who go home over Sunday or at special vacations find difficulty in getting back to regular classes on time Mondays. 2. With the Normal School in session on Saturdays teachers in service will have an opportunity to wisit the Normal School and arrange for work in special classes which will be formed. Already some interest has been shown by such teachers in the plan. : 3. With the Normal School in ation on Mondays members of the faculty will have better opportunity own schools with mutual advantage to both. Vi cartea rim. The sour-faced man looked at his seat companion on the train, who was jittering the floor “wiin shells, and said sneeringly : “Down where I come f=om they use peanuts to fatten hogs.” “That so?" sa!d the other. ‘“Here, have eome.” A Misunderstanding. “Gladys and her hushand have started for their honeymoon in a veri- table ecstasy.” “That must be a new make.” Just Its Case. “T understand we will have to part with our candy fea e “Qh, that is a parting which is such &Eweet SOrrov Its Nature. “Don’t you think my gift of a wriat watch to my friend \vwus appropria\»?" “I must say I think it was timely.” Repr Admiral William 8. Sims, U. s to be born to trouble as the sparks fly upward. You see, he has the sailor's habit of speaking his mind. A year or so before the war he was given an official reprimand for publicly stating that American and British battleships would be found side by side in the hour of danger. Just the same, this same sallorman not long afterward was in command of the Americap fleet that went to the aid of England—and did some admir- able work. On his return to this country Ad- mirable Sims wrote a series of articles on the American navy abroad. He fell foul of the Sinn Feiners in Ire- ‘and and raised another rumpus. And now Admiral Sims declines to accept the distinguished service medal awarded him, and practically accuses Secretary of the Navy Dan- jels of gross favoritism in making the Uion awards. It appears that Secretary Daniels did not pay much attention to the list of 19 naval officers recom. mended for the distinguished service medal by Admiral Sims. Any Sec- retary Daniels ordered the navy departinent’s board of awards reconvenad, to revise the recommendations. Chairman Page of the senate committee on naval affairs requested full information conc rning the recommendations of the board of awards and the secretary’s changes therein. There may be a congressional investigation going into e whole matter, President Wilson has the final say in the award of medals and crosses. ———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— UNITED STATES NOTES BEST Central and South American Natisnl Have Their Currency Printed in This Country. The American style of banknote has become the standard in the countries of Central and South America. The experience of the Brazilian govern- ment led the way in this, after va- rious disappointments. First the much-vaunted Austrian system was tried, the notes being engraved and printed in England under that system. They proved a complete failure. Counterfeiters flourished. The Bra- zillans tried banknotes made in France, and these were promptly and extensively imitated a® soon as the counterfeiters could get their plates and paper ready. Brazil tried Ger- man and English establishments, but still without success In the protection of the banknote circulation, and at last turned to the United States and found a type of bills practically im- possible to counterfeit with success. So it is no boast, but a mere record - of fact, to state that Americans make the best banknotes in the world. Bonds for Shelf Paper. Seattle, Wash.—How $4,000 of Se- attle improvement bonds, bought by a son for an income for his mother, were ‘used by her to paper pantry shelves, was disclosed when some of the mu- tilated bonds were brought to the of- fice of City Treasurer E. L. Terry to see if they had any value. According | to the stor'v told Accountant A. B. Lund, the bbnds are the property of an elderly woman who has been Mv- ing alone in Seattle several years. Dur- ing a long illness five or six years ago she is paid to have suffered a tempo- rary lapse of memory, and when she recovered apparently had forgotten everything about the bonds and their value. Indians Just Quit Work. Winnemuccu, Nev.—When time was called the other morning on the trenches being built on the new water mains, all the Indians on the job sat down and waited’until D. O. Church of San Francisco, who has the contract, | came along. *“What's the matter, why aren't you fellows at work?’ he asked. Then one of the Piutes ex- plained that they wanted 50 cents more a day. They _had made no de- mands, sent no committee to the boss, nor anything but just quit work and waited until asked the reason. The job has to be rushed with all pos- sible speed, azd the red men got the raive. MAYBE SHE HAS A REASON Joan—His wife never seems to care how late he stays out at night. Jane—If you were married to him, would you?—Answers, Lon- don. G ' > - MUMMIES STILL HIDDEN. Although the armistice was signed more than a year ago, Egyptian mummies belonging to the British museum are still lying in cold, damp underground tunnels of buildings, where they were reinterred so that they might not be injured by Zeppe- lin raids. Previously having spent centuries in the tombs of kings in Egypt, if they could speak the mummies would resent this troglodytic exist- ence, but school children have spoken for them. They want to see the mummies again, but the museum is still closed to the public and the mummies are still left in their hid- ing places of Zeppelin days. He Didn’t Know. Sentimental Mary—Oh, don’t you just love to cuddle up against the zood old spring and feel the glorious- ness of it! Mere man—I don't know. ways slept on a mattress. DESIGNING WOMAN.
