pleased to get back to their old home,
while the new set left in the afternoon,
all in happy anticipation for their new
work at the ranch. Sherman Bulletin.

The lack of assuming responsibility
is shown very often on the part of the
student teamsters who drive to the
school from the farm. Wagons which
have just been thoroughly put in order
are driven here. with end boards gone,
rods for holding sideboards together
missing, and harness put on horses with
straps missing. Ihese teamsters cer
tainly show a serious lack of pride and
the element of responsibility as well as
,. shiftlessness when they use their teams
and wagons in such condition. Sherman

Mr. Wildish, a gentleman from Wis
consin, was at our Sunday school assem
blage yesterday and gave us a good talk,
referring to us as a party of tourists
journeying on an automobile and giv
ing us the name to remember: The
Phoenix Indian School automobile. He
also said that we must not stray too far
away from our automobile, that . we
might get left and be lost. The point
that he wanted to bring out was that we
are journeying on the grand road of life,
and that the Bible steers and guides us,
so that we shall not be lost, until we get
to the end, wheje we will be rewarded.
