The latest 'linguistic aoheivmniit <
the class of ' 02 is''sechords" by Mis
Ayers.
Mis Lucilla Slinard entertained th
10th grade very pleasantly at her hom <
last Thursday evening.

P.-of. Crabtree , s'ale inspector of ac
credited schools , was with us Wednes
day. .He expressed himself as being
well satisfied with the school.
Miss Bess finds that some of the H
S. students aie nt-t even as providen
as the old ficotchiimu who wrote a bool
and at the end put a page of punctu
atiou marks saying that , folk could sal
and pepper it as they liked.
TheH. S. , Grammar-room and sev
eral visitors , Thursday afternoon , en
joyed talks by Mrs. L-iw and Prof ,
Greeloy of S. D. University. The foi-
mer bpoke on Domestic Science , deal
ing especially with the rt of cooking ,
the latter gave us a pleas-ant little mis
cellaneous talk ou subjects pertaining
to education.
A graduate of "one of those antique
classes which date back into the lOtli
century , was recently heard to remark
with refei ene to the class of ' 03 that fl
new generation had "sprung up" . II
weliave rightly construed tbe language
of thase ancients , we presume that thin
one meant to insinuate that the class oi
; 02 is of the mush-room variet } * . which
show how little hhey know about it.
Last Friday morning Prof. Watson
was vaguely troubled by the unusual
disturbance in the II. S. room and said
BO. exhorting the pupils to studying and
quietness. Now it appears that all the
disturbance was due entirely to the
class colors of the illustnons clash of ' 03
which they wore that morning for tun
first time and which ( being apple green
aii'l salmon pink ) are so loud as to be
heard even out in the hall.
' We are like a flock of pigeons with
snow white feathers which were mad
todecend and fight each other'and
ever } thing amid soot and wire for a
poor living in a dirty world. If a
feather gets broken , broken it stays ; if
one gets blackened nothing will clean
it Perhaps we shall all fly home at
last , nnd when the hand of the unseen
fancier in streetched forth to receive us
Iio\r cun he possibly smite any one of
us , tho' we come back to him besnandg-
ed and bedraggled past all recognit
ion. " From A Kentucky Cardinal.

A quiet Yet beautiful wedding took
place at the residence of Rev. White-
house ou Thursday eve Nov. 21,1901.
The contracting parties were Mrs.
Clara Kicharda of Valentine and Ser-
geutVm. . L. Cole of the 10th infantry
of Ft. Niobrara , Nebraska. The bride
is a wealthy young widow of high
standing in this community. She rep
resents the true type of the western
woman and is highly refined and re
spected by all , Sergt. Cole is one ot
the true blue St. Louis boy's who step
ped to the front when our Hag w s H
sailed by the treacherous Spaniards ,
and stood firmly and staunchly by the
cause till peace spread her wings over
our fair land again. By strict atten
tion to duty and examplary and pa
triotic conduct he attained the rank of
sergeant in his regiment where he leaves
many firm friends who regret to see
him leave the old command. Sergent
Cole has always been a man of the
highest respectability and his character
is above reproach. His kindness and
entlemanly conduct in tbe army has
won for him a host of friends that will
always remember him kindly wherever
bis lot may be cast. Quartermaster
Sergeant James L. Green and Miss
Florence-Thompson were io attendance
ind performed tbe duties of brides-
groom and brnlesmaid , After the cer
emony was jn-j formed and Rev. White-
liouse had nride a beautiful talk to fhe
lewly married couplfl the crowd repair
ed to find supper where all enjo3ed
, hernselv s splendidly till 11 p. m.
Sergeant Cole and bride leave.for an ex-
; ended trip to the east where they will
ipend a month in Chicago , New 1 ork
md other cities daring their honey moon
ifter which they will go into bnainesss
n St. Louis. It is hoped by alh
fiends that the angel of peace may
ipread her wings'over them and guide
h'm in the and
straight perfectway
ind when the great drama of life draws
o aclose like a mighty curtain and
oath has flown and old age steals up-
m them stealthily'it is to be hoped
hat the beautiful lines of the immortal
K > et may still ring in their eirs as
wtfetly and serenely as it did amid the
lour of their youthful courtship. Let
hose lines reverberate from the hill
sps of their youth to tne silent declivit-
PS of old age and be their motto along
tie turbulent stream of life.
Two souls w ith bm a single thought.
Tno hearts that beat as one. i
oDtMvlio was present. '
