His whereabouts were unknown’ to the family until we received a nutice from Sesser, Ill., seeking information about his relatives or friends. We wired the recording secretary of ‘lo- cal Union 1287 U. M. W. of A. ofthat place for information concerning his death but received no reply. We left immediately for that place and arrived there Thursday evening only to find that he was dead and buried. Saturday the body was exhumed for identification and on hisdeath cold face still remained the imprint of the family resemblance. Fred left home in April, 1898, when the war broke out with Spain, at the age of seventeen years and it was feared that he had joined the army and was sent to Cuba. All efforts to locate him were futile until 1899, a year later, he was located tat Richmond, Mo., where he had found employment in the minesat that place. Letters were written pleading with him to come home, but he wrote to his mother not to worry or grieve over him, some day he would return. When the trouble between the coal companies and the miners came up that year he left Richmond for Illinois the last we heard of him until a few days ago. We had long looked for the day when he would return, but our fond- est hope was blighted when we re- ceived the sad news of his death. Fred loved home and was always obedient to his parents and why he has treated us so these many years has always been a mystery and one that has caused much worry and anxiety and many bitter tears over him have been shed.__But all_is_for- given and all we can hold in memory dear is the few short years of his boy- hood days and the blessed hope to meet him in the spirit world. A lady with whom he had been boarding: said Fred had frequently told her he was going back home to his people but it seems all had forgot- ten where he lived, only in Missouri, and remembered him speaking of Rich Hill, hence the letter of inquiry of his relatives was sent to that place. To bring him home this way makes our grief doubly hard, but it will bea trouble is that whenever she asks for an outline the Seniors hand her & Seon, : : The Amerf€an history class is get- ting elong nicely. They are starting on the Causes of the Revolution. Miss Grube sprang a ‘little trap on the Cicero class this Monday. Instead of sending them to the board and di- viding the sentences as is her usual custom with composition work, she had them remain at their seats and write on paper the translation of the English seritences which were written upon the board and hand them in. Thus she shrewdly calculated to find out those of the class who were working. Chemiatry is considered a Junior sub- ject but inasmuch as several of the Seniors are taking it instead of Physics this year, we feel that it has a part in the Senior notes Hence we hope when- ever any- mention of the Chemistry class is made that the Juniors will take no offense at what they call ‘‘stealing their glory.”” During the past week the class has been engaged in another struggle ‘‘terrible’? Chemistry prob- lems, but thru the valient efforts of Prof. Coonrod, who certainly cultivating allthe characteristics of amonument of patience, the majority of the class has been rescued from the Slough of! Des- pond and are on sure ground once more. The Physics class has been having an English argument. The book said ‘If the air WAS pumped out.’’ Some mem- bers of the class insisted on ‘If the air WERE pumped out.’’ Every teach- er in the school was confronted with the great question, for might it not mean a mistake in our otherwise infal- lible Physics author? Eveerywhere the same answer came, ‘‘Was the air real- ly pumped out, or was it a condition contrary to facts?’’ Over this point the battle raged hotter than ever. The class was divided in opinion as to that fact All the satisfaction we got was “of the air was really pumped out ‘was’ is correct.’’ The Training Course students will finish psychology by the end of this week and will then take up the hygenic condition of the school room and of the bodyn == The observation class will make their first observation tours to the various schools next week, The Seniors are now studying Julius Ceasar. They expect to finish by Fri- day. They are taking one act a day and there are only five acts. . JUNIOR NOTES.

Fred Arbogast was born January 8rd, 1881, in Johnson county, Mo., and moved with his parents to Bates county when a baby. Died Septem- ber 13th, 1913, in St. Mary’s Hospital at Centralia, Illinois, of typhoid fever. Age 32 years, 8 months and ten days. He leaves father, mother, six broth- ers and two sisters, besides a host of relatives and friends who deeply mourn his death. The body arrived Tuesday and after short services at the grave by Rev. Sage, all that was mortal was laid to rest in the beautiful little city of the dead at Salem cemetery near the home of his boyhood. To the good people of Sesser, Illi- nois, who so kindly administered to the last sad rites of our son and broth- er, Fred Arbogast, do we express our sincere and heartfelt thanks. These tokens of love and friendship shall ever be cherished within our memory. D. H. Arbogast and family. . HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. Miss Doris Wyatt opened chapel last week with an exquisite pianosolo. Rev. Hanby followed this by a psychological lecture on ‘Personality and Environ- ment.’’ This was especially interesting afraid to hear the outcome of the pa- pers for fear of becoming deaf ae the result of hearing such-awful things as Miss Snider would be forced to tell us about them. Mrs. Hill gave us anoth- er history test. She said we did fine. We are expecting a test in Ceasar soon which will be on what we should know. Miss Grube says she expects good pa- pers. Weare therefore going to try real hard. Oh unhappy day that will bring that English test. The Sophmore basket ball. captains are sure putting the teamsthru. Even if we did lose a game it isno sign we aren’t going to help ourselves to the pennant. The Sophmore bookkeeping class is larger than ever before. It was necessary to add two extra seats to accommodate the students. FRESHMEN NOTES. Examinations last week, and more are promised to us.. May we fare well! Some of the Freshmen are making use of their Latin vocabularies, it seems. Recently on the blackboards was seen in a boy’s writing ‘‘Amos Miss Snider.’”” There has been no more than the usual number of students absent this week. Many of the country pupils went heme as usual Friday. Among them were Kathleen Church, Junett. Shesler, John O’Day and others. Sam Allen and Mrs. Hill arestill hav- ing their daily atguments in the an- cient history class. Recently the chos- en topic for discussion was the various kinds of breakfast foods.
