The mandolin club gave a very en
joyable party at the dining hall Mon
day evening. About fifty couples were
present and the fore part of the evening
was spent in social intercourse and
dancing, later a very nice light lunch
was served. Weekly Review.
He that hath money and refuseth to
subscribe for the School paper, . but
looketh over his neighbor's back to
behold the contents therof, is like unto a
donkey, who, having a mangerful of
straw, nevertheless nibbleth that of his
companion and then brayeth loudly
with brutish glee. The Arrow.
The new choir is progressing finely
and the anthems rendered on both last
Sunday and 'the Sunday before, did the
members credit. The choir was recently
reorganized so as not to include members
of band, orchestra and mandolin club,
and it is a surprise to many that the
new members are doing so well.

While the various classes of girls in
the domestic science cooking school at
Sherman secure training in the manu
facture of fancy articles, yet their train
ing in the more important every-day
cooking is not neglected, for Miss Miller
is very practical and manages her de-"
partment so that her pupils are given
thorough instruction in home, all-round
cooking. The three meals each day are
cooked and served by the classes, while
a course dinner is prepared and served
each day in addition for invited pupil
guests. Sherman Bulletin.
There are sixteen married men among
the employes with families at Sherman,
and all of them, with two exceptions,
have children and other attache in their
families. With such a large number of
persons not connected with the school
on the grounds it would seem that no
little Harmful gossip and mischiefmak
ing would be going on, but such is not
the case at Sherman. The wives and
families attend strictly to their own affairs
yet they lend a helpful and loyal inter
est to doings of the school which is quite
commendable. Our employes and at
taches are not given to listening to harm
ful gossip nor passing it on. Sherman

The man who lays his hand upon a wo
