It is a lamentable fact that we do at times misspell words, get our sen tences twisted and have our nouns, verbs and prepositions in discord, but if we were not reminded of these slips of pen, say on the average once a week, we might go on forever, not knowing that any one was offended. So it is with pleasure that we publish a pupil's item under the head of "a criticism." Presuming that this youug man writes his iteris without flaws, we are safe in saying that the majority do not. As everyone knows that the printing force is made up of pupils from different grades and-are inexperienced in the a;t of printing and it is a very difficult task to always get perfect work from them, although the copy before them is correct. The ' omission of letters arid whole words sometimes occurs, also parts of sentences, which we let run through as we have no time to make up a new stick. We know that our dear readers under stand things as they are. To the Editor: The adult and receiving pri mary grades, wish to inform Col.- Rand lett through the medium of your paper that their tree was named in honor of the dear "Old Man" and wish to be recognized. , . A Criticism Speaking of patient and careful work ers, the"printer" as a general rule, is very patient and careful to see that no word or letter is changed. But I can not help noticing that through some slight care lessness, several of my items have been changed, by putting, or changing a word and even some times several words chang ed or added. I reminded two of the print ers of this, but they denied any know ledge of it. Now I do hope that the print ers will be more careful hereafter, because my items have been criticized through their carelessness. A pupil. The End of the Limit. "What do you get for all this work?" . I was asked the other day; "Oh, nothing at all but the thanks," 1 Faid; "Our glory is our pay." And straightway 'round the corner came Some classmates on the run, And advancing toward my helpless self Said, "Gee, this issue's bum." Ex. WANTED Two hard worker boys to learn how to bake. Apply to Mr. Teabo's office. WANTED An experienced barber, apply to "Soldier Boy's" office in,; room 17, Mitchell Hall.
