Miss Bennit hopes to enter the journalistic pro- fession later. It is really wonderful the amount of rcefulness and real ability her graduation lalong various lines that is displayed by the girls in the local high schools. They do make up their minds as to what lines they wish to follow while they are still in school, and if some- times they. do not follow these courses which they have laid out tentatively, at least they have done some constructive thinking and plan- igave two very interesting talks on |ning, which is a great deal more than most girls of high schoul age receive | credit for. And many of them achieve their original ambitions. Therefore, girls like Margaret Bennit, who are already charting thelr courses, should receive the greatest encouragement and best wishes for success in realizing their plans. Normal News Grows | As Lively Publication ‘ HE Normal News, the lively little } bulletin that is published every | two weeks for the girls attending the i Wilson Normal Training School. has | with | just made its bow under the new edi- Christmas work on the playgrounds, | pervision. The next! torial staff's gotten out this week. This paper has risen from the ob- scurity of a small pamphlet to the proportions of a sheet the size of any } of the school papers. The giris who had the making of the paper during the past year worked conscientiously and continuously to develop it and the present staff found affairs in ex- cellent condition when they took over the publication three weeks ago. Miss Jeannette Speiden, a former student at Central High School, is the editor-in-chief of the Normal News, and the assistant editors are also graduates of Central, being Marjorie Mothershead and Ruth Finnle. Ruth Smith, the editor of the locals’ col- umn dubbed the “Knormal Knocks,” 18 a graduate of Eastern High School, as is her assistant editor, Edna Bur- rows. Jean Jackson, the advertising manager, and Ethlene Walter, the business manager, are also Central- ites, and Edythe Buckler, the circula- tion manager, is the one representa- { tive from Western High School. These girls all have desires forl further education than that afforded by high school, and even normal school, and the majority of them ex- pect to specialize in one subject at college 50 as to teach it later in high school. Most of them plan to take afternoon classes at George Washing- ton or summer courses at other col- leges or universities. Jeannette Speiden, Ruth Smith and Marjorie Mothershead desire to speclalize in English in college with a view to teaching it later. Ruth Finnle has ambitions to study law and follow the legal profession, and Edna Bur-l 1 rows wishes to study English with a view to teching, possibly for awhile, and later entering the journalistic profession. _Edythe Buckler and Eth- lene Walter are both interested in taking special work in physical train- ing, 8o that they may act as athletic directors for girls in high schools. Jean Jackson is planning primarily to teach and her further course is not definitely decided upon. The Normal News is helpful to teachers as well as being of soclal interest to the girls of the tmln\nzl school, for it contains carefully worked-out projects for use in the schoolrooms and suggests novel methods of instructing children in cer- | tain subjects. It also contains notes and literary doings.

When the skirmish was over, Bar- clay and his junior. with half a dozen, Hausas and a lantern or two, made a round of the compound, counting the dead and attending to the wound- ed.

Suspicious of his man. him to be no more than stunned, captain had him handcuffed and lo up in one of the inner rcoms of the fort. When the wounded had been attended to they were left in the guardroom. and the little garrison retired oncc mor within the fort. The enemy had had s u beating that Barclay did not expect an other attack. For all that. he was taking no risks. . and knowing the when the Just before daybreak. world was a place of curling White mist and grayness, ther ame stampede of horses. And. above th thunder of hoofs, the wild Moham- medan war cry. $ “Deen!

In wild disorder they turned and stampeded back, soon 10 be lost in the screening mist. “I don't think theyll face another ose,” the junior remarked. However, he was Wrong. Presently from out of the fog came the same wild war cry and the thunder of hoofs. There was an- other charge wlith sadly depleted numbers. “For reckless courage Barclay had never seen anything to equal their; youthful leader. Again and again he rallied his men and brought them on. until finally, with ouly about dozen men, he swept through the deadly zone and on towards the fort. In the very teeth of the Maxims his black horge literally flew over the high stockade. But the youngster was the only one who faced the guns. His following broke up and turned back under the fierce fusillade. ‘Although the leader got over the stockade alive, his horse did not. It crashed and fell dead beneath him. With a quick side spring—a marvel- lous piece of horsemanship—he avoid- ed injury and, with drawn sword. rushed on toward the little fort. The Hausas would have shot dow the reckless youngster, but Barclay stopped them. : % “We don’t make war on children. he said in their dialect. A closer inspection show leader of the Arab horde to be dly more than a child; a handsome boy of about fourteen, who, suddenly realizing that his followers had de- round serted him, now stood gazing in a fierce thwarted fashion. — On finding he was alone he did not retreat, lltiollgh Barclay gave him every opportunity. Instead, he stood his ground and hurled a challenge in Arabic at the men clustered on the of the fort. o8 mce there was no reply to that. he shouted again, this time in French. “Who and what is the youngster Barclay asked. “He doesn’t look any more Arabign than T do.

Barclay was a skilled duellist, but in this wild youth from the deser he _met his match. . For all his finesse and =superfor height and weight, the Englishman had his cheek laid open and his arm ripped up in the course of a minute. Things would have gone badly with him, except that a shot from his junior put the boy's sword arm out of_action. ‘With a rattle his weapon fell to the ground, his arm useless at his side. But, even -then. there was no plea for mercy. With a prond gesture he threw .up his head, facing his enemy in arrogant fashion. '"“Kill me.” he sald in French, “But let my father live.” “Who is your father?” Barclay ask- ed, as with & handkerchief he tried to stop the blood gushing from his cheek. “The Sultan Casim Ammeh,” the boy answered proudly. "The reply told Barelay. that the ‘man he had under lock and key really was the marauding Arab chief. He scanned the boy closély. Except for his coal-black hair and eyes and fie: arrogant expression, there was no resemblance between father and son. If he had not heard to the contrary, he would have said the boy was as. French as the lan- guage he spoke. “I've no intention of killing you,” Barclay remarked. “On the contrary, in | y from the rest of his following. ) a thorough ! ort, | huge | i George Barc shman watched him it the Eng! tained murderer- seemed that.*blood fas the sultan at least this bi yme son of his ioved him.
