.School Notes.
Miss Carrie Stetter made a brief
call at the high school Tuesday.
There are a number of bright
boys and girls from the country in
school now and we promise to make
the school mean something to each
one who does a reasonable amount
of evening-study and takes from
nine to. ten hours sleep each night.
We believe that never since we
have been in Valentine has the
school run with as little friction as
it is running this year. However ,
we have more tardies than we
should have. Parents could be
very helpful to their children by be
ing a little more sensative on this
point.
Miss Anna Hahu , with her par
ents , made a brief call last Satur
day and brought us four fine water
melons. Such remembrances from
our former students leave a pleas
ant taste in the mouth. Anna has
taught one week on her term and
now feels like a full fledged "school-
marm. "
We have had inteiesting letters
from Floyd Pettycrew , Prank Fisch
er , Allen Gould , Nellie Oollett , Bes
sie Gaskill , Nellie Basley , Clinton
Collett and Olive Bliss recently. We
certainly appreciate these letters ,
although we have bean too busy to
answer them as promptly as we
should.
The tuition from non-resident
pupils for Sept. this year was $10.50
against § 27 for the same month
last year , and the tuition for Ojt.
this year is ! ? 51 against § 22.50 for
Oct. 1905. We understand there
are still a few more non-residents
planning to enter. The sooner they
come the bettor it will be for them.
Miss Anna Stetter and Mrs. Wat
son will teach some of the classes
in the high school while Supt. Wat
son attends the Northeast Nebraska
Educational association at Emerson
on Oct. 13 , and the state association
of superintendents and principals
in Lincoln on the 18 , 19 and 20.
Between the two meetings Mr.
Watson will incidentally look after
any breaks which may have occurred
in his political fences along the
eastern border of the state.
Some More About Kansas.
Of the 105 counties in Kansas ,
85 are without a pau-per , 25 have
no poorhouses , and 37 have not a
criminal case on the docket. In
Kansas , women have had full
municipal suffrage since 1887.
If during these IS years women
had neglected their homes for
politics as the opponents of equal
rights prophesy that they will , hal :
the men in Kansas would have
been brought to the poorhouse by
lack of thrift and domestic in
dustry on the part of their wives ,
and the rising generation woulc
have gone astray and filled the
prisons to overflowing , for wan !
of motherly care. Just the
opposite has happened. This is
another illustration of the fact that
"it is idle to argue from prophecy
when we can argue from history. "
When a bill was introduced a
%
year or two ago to take municipal
suffrage away from the women of
Kansas , no wonder it was voted
down almost unamimously , and
"amid a ripple of amusement. "

The W. C. T. U. will give an
oyster supper at Bethel Hall on
Oct. 19th. for the benefit of the
Rest and Heading Koom. We so
licit your patronagefeeling ifc is an
enterpri/.e that all might be in
terested in. According to Mrs.
Callen's report the Reading Koom
has been well appreciated this
summer by visitors not only of our
town but those coming from other
places. In one instance , a little
child belonging to an Omaha
visitor was cared for by Mrs.
Callen , which gave the mother an
opportunity 'to see the town and
attend to business to better advan
tage and it also placed a little sum
into our treasury. In this way the
Best and Reading Room may be
come a natural benefit to all who
wish to enjoy it and we do not
lesitate to ask the aid and co
operation of the friends oi : Valen
tine in this direction.
The supper will be 25 cents ;
