St. Mary's Academy was founded at Jacksonville In 1865 and many of the young worn en who were educated within its walls live in other cities and distant states but there Is still a sufficient number of former pupils of the sisters In Jacksonville, Medford and vicinity to make the permanent association of former students which it is proposed to organize at the forthcoming re union a strong and interesting body. This Is the fiftieth year since the establishment of the institution and the proposed organization would seem a fitting commemoration of the work of fifty years. That no loyal pupil will be absent from the gathering is the earnest hope of her alma mater. j i, the Social Realm Men Make Good. Exhibit.' Tien have proven themslves.

Under the new physical training department the high school girls are gaining an In valuable training which will stand them in good stead throughout their lives. The beauty and variety of the evo'utions and folk dances performed by the various classes amazed the aul dlence, who came prepared to sit through an uninteresting "one, two, three" dumbbell drill and a march or so. The program was varied, and worth while throughout. Contests and games provided a change from the drills and gymnastic exercises.
