.state of semi-panic. O'Shaughnessy
has been Instructed to watch the sit

longer. -Decision

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Sophomores Entertian at tlie Lane
School liiiildlng.
A delightful tlino was spent at
the Lane school building iasf night
whon the Sophomores entertained
the Junior class frlendB. The halls
were beautifully decorated In aut
umn leaves and corn stalks. The
evening was spent in games, music
and social converse. At a late hour
delicious refreshments were served
and the guests departed to their re
spective homes.
A scholarship has been sent to the
high school by the Albany college,
it is to be given to the Senior mak
ing the most satisfactory grades, it
will no doubt cause much competi
tion in the school.
The first classics for the year huve
just been read and the book reviews
written. As a result a number of
the high school students are think
ing very seriously of qualifying as
critics in literature.
Owing to the faulty construction
of the building mentioned in the
last notes It is a very noticeable
fact that the manual training class
is not receiving the attention from
the teacher that it should. It Is said
that Mr. Atchison spend the largest
part of his time standing at the door
of the domestic science room smell
ing the dcllcatable odors that issue
from that room.
