The County Fair a Success
Everybody who have attended the
Cass county fair from all over the
county came back with the satis
faction of knowing that the exhibit
is above the average and that -they
have some of the best displays not
alone in stock but in every line
which it is expected that exhibits
i would come from. The school exhi-
bit as well as the home is well re
presented and it looks like the
stock portion could not be bettered
anyway. We will have more to say
regarding the exhibits personally.
later.
Does Not Look That Way
The Chautauqua matter is one of
considerable perplexity these days
when they do not pay out. The one
held at Nehawka was a success last
which came out behind has in aj
manner deterred the people of thisi
place from taking hold of the mat-;
ter with much interest. Mrs. Crane1
representing the White-Meyers Co., '
which gave a course here last year, f
was in town last week but met
with little encouragemest. The con
ditions are perplexing when one
company has been doing a town,
they by the ruses of the companies
agreement are entitled to the field
the following year. That means if
Nehawkaa does not sign up with
the White-Meyers people they can-j
not have some one else for the ccm-i
ing year, but must wait fo.- anoth
er year until they can make a con
tract with another company.

give up the Ship," by Phoebe Carey.
Earnest Opp was absent from

count of the death of his little
brother.
In the fourth grade the pupils
are to study the life and works of
Longfellow. They have started to
memorize "The Village Blacksmith."
Vilas Sheldon was absent from
school Wednesday. He is one of the
boys who belong tor the pig club
and was .attending the County fair
at Weeping Water.
It was decided, that it was not
necessary to excuse school for the
county fair at Weeping Water as
those who wished to go could get
there easily after school.
Examination of the ears, eyes,
nose and throat is taking place this
week. The teachers are giving the
examination for the eyes and ears
while Dr. Thomas will examine the
nose and throat.
The Sophomores entertained the
Seniors at a party at the scnool
house last Friday evening. Games
were played and an interesting
time was enjoyed by all. Sandwich
es, pickles and orangeade was
served.
The grades each sent a small ex
hibit to the fair. The Home Econ
omics department sent over quite a
large exhibit, consisting of cakes,
pies, cookies, canned fruit and fancy
work. Mr. Burby, who took the ex
hibit over in his Ford could hardly
keep from eating it up.
Thursday afternoon, September 27
the 5 and 6 grades took a nature
study hike and at the same time
had a wienner roast. A number of
interesting specimens were secured
and -will be used for various lan
guage and drawing lessons during
the remainder of this .week. The
little folks enjoyed the wienner
roast as little folks usually do, to
say nothing of the toasted marsh
mallows. The Crops and Soils class has
been gathering seed the last few
days. It is planned to test this corn
out this winter, most of the boys
will use it in planting their pro
ject plot. One interesting part of it
is the collecting enough corn from
prolific plants to plant one tow
thru their plot, the plant must have
at least two good sized ears to be
eligible. The ears on the plants on
this row will then be counted next
fall to see if anv has been made in
I comparison with the; other rows.
On Thursday afternoon, Septem
ber 22. at the close of school, the
girls of the 5, 6, 7, and 8 grades
met to organize a sewing club. They
, held election of officers and decid
ed to meet every two weeks on
; Thursday afternoons, either at the
school house or at the home of one
; of the members. Miss Scott and Miss
Steinmeyer will act as guardians at
these meetings. The aim is to teach
the girls some of the arts they may
accomplish by handiwork. Social af
fairs will also be included for the
girls.
The English classes in the high
school are planning io re-catologue ,
the school library. It is planned to
put all books into one central li-
brary to be kept in the high school
study room. After they are all cat
ologued which will take about two
weeks, they will be checked out to
the students of the entire school,
providing they are old enough to
read them. It is hoped to add to the
library as many good books as pos
sible. This should be of especial in
terest as Nehawka has no public library.
