School is crowded and class room cpace was neceded. In the study| hall during the last two periods of the day were 51 students. These; were sent home or rather just ex-| cused from school at 1:45 for the| rest of the day and the study hall| was then used for class room in- structional purposes. The students.| most of them, did not like the idea. They wanted to stay in school and offered many excuses. The first day it was a lark afte they actually did get out of the building. They went to town and put on the appearance of sneak day or a school picnic. But in a| few days they will begin to real- ize that this hour is for study pur- poses and not for running around “If the experiment does not work they will be called back to school and some other method sought to alleviate the acute room shortaze in the high school building. Every effort has been made to utilize! class room space but it is almost impossible to crowd 280 pupils into class rooms intended for 170. | “The probable reason for the| trouble now is that last June only 30 seniors graduated from high school whilt the eighth grade grad- uated 88, most of whom are ¢én- rolled as freshmen in the Juneau High School. Next year the prob- lem will be the same. About 40 are to be graduated next June but about 90 will come from the pres- ent eighth grade. “Every available bit of room space has been completely util-| ized in both the grade and high school buudmgs 4 “The down MILWAUKEE, Sept. 23.—Next!

Miller, museum historian, and you'd be surprised how much time he spent in a quest for the last essential item—a shmy 18-inch brass cuspidor. John Olmstead of Orfordville (about 70 miles southwest of Mil- waukee), finally produced a cus- pidor of the proper vintage in an- swer to a plea broadcast by His- torian Miller. Now this receptacle takes its place beside the old straight- backed barber chair and below the well case containing a score’ 0f shaving mugs, some decorated by the old “transfer picture” process, some hand-painted, and all bear- ing names or initials of former owners. The striped pole outside, the old-fashioned coal-burning stove and a ‘19th century painting are larger objects of interest. Then there are the fancy “stand | bottles”—for toilet water and toa- ies—lining a shelf below a mirrar. There are ancient perfume bottles, antiquated razors and sclssors a pewter talcum powder shaker, and one bottle—nearly full—of 18th century hair tonic. Other centers of attraction i MRS.
