GREETING.
LsstSprfng, -.·esaid good-bye to fe11o• ·-studfnts
and facult.y ••ith •·ann hand chlSJ) and •·ell wl8h~
for the Summer's work.
With oortaln members o! the !acuity, ho•-e•·er.
our varting was of a ditreren\ nature: for •-e kne"'
that they were not to be with us the coming ~·ear,
and possibly we might. ne,·er P~.ee them again.
Our first thought on entering school thlo Fall
was of the old members of the faculty that have
At.ood by us In the pastt and in whom • ·c have
Implicit !alth. We missed some o! the old !amlllar
faces; and became a\ once anxious to meet their
I'IU<:CeSSOI"S.
We have not forgotten those who ha••~>lcfl us;
for the Influence of their lh·es bu s made imprints
upon us ,.•hlch will be carried to our graves.
On the opening of .school we found that. the
\'&cant places were ably filled; and we extend a
hearty welcome to the new members, and hope that
they "'ill enjoy their sta y wilh u;;.
been ••lth us bu\ a short time, !lhe is an es1-.ecial
favorite both Ln the school and In tho gradeil.
~tl ss Fink was engaged for some time a!'i

where she had unusual success to her- musical
work. Later she graduated !rom the Full Counw
In Miss J. Etta Crane's Normal Training School

enterinsr upon her SJJOO-Ial training for he r- work
in nlU!$lc, ~ll ss Fink ~orr-aduated from the ad vancet.l
cour-se In the~.tl lwaukoo Normal School; so oouX'~
to us wilh a knowledge and !o$ympathy for tht..
Normal School work. Under- her su}Jer'\•lslon, thcGloo Club and I he Treble Clef have been re·ot-gan·
b!ed ond promiMe to be even moa"e successful than
In tho post. Miss Fink is an active worker, and
Is a l way"' ready to lend cheerful assistance to

The game started with a kick otT by Stevens
Point. Oshko!!h a'd\'anced the ball ,.ome; but was
held for downs. Stevens Point. tried to carry the
hall: but failed to gain ground. The ball was
g-iven to Oshk~sh. who tlnally pushed it over for a
touch down. The Pointers fought hard, but could '
not hold t' e opposing team, and a st>COnd touch·
down was made by the visitors before time was
l'alled at the end of the tirst half.
The second half was simply a n>petition of the _
tirst: and when time was calll.'d, Oshkosh had piled
up a !!core of 21.
The Pointers were defeatl.'d; -hut felt they had
been beaten
. bv• . a heavier team and one that had
luul far more experience. ThE' home team played
a plucky game. and did not give up until the time
ket>per c.alled time. The Oshkosh boys are a nk-e
st>t of boys and played a good, clean game.
Bad luck s£"emed to folluw the O!!hkosh ~arnE'.
I 'a pta in Malloi'Y was not able to be out at all, on
llcl·ount of pleuri~y. Widmer and Nelson we1-e
laid up with game legs : and Patch and Peterson
stopped playing. The lo~s of these men left the
lt'llm \'t>ry Wt'ak. Tht>re were not (·Dough men out
fill' a good practil'e: and so tht>team went to pil'Ces.
\
"\ game with Hipon ( 'oiiE'I!e had ~n arraol{ed
for to be pla.yt>d at Ripon. O.:tohe1· :lrd. When
the time came tht>t-e wet\' six no:w men, Stradet·,
Atkins, ~latl'lt', Bt·unsted , Smith, and Shimek.
The thus weakened team wt>re much surprised
tu tlnd a jolly burich o.f Norma} girls down at the .·
,lepot, who wet-e Joyal to the teaun altho ti1e~· did
not t•xpect them to win.
The bi1~·s reaclwd
ltipon at 1:! ::10 p. m., wlwn> "the~· wei"(' well enter'"ined h,v the Ripon boys at the 1-:nglebrightHot('l.
Ripon has a good team one that knows how to
play 1\ gamt.' ~ foHt ball which is clean. Th .. ir
team was far superior to ours: and the score of.4tr
to 0 was not. much of a surprLse.
The Ripon boys showed themselves gentlemen.
and we hope to meet tl\em again on the 17th at
l'\tRvens Point, when we hope to do better than
at ·Ripon.
The liearty support given a losing team, by. th~
~iris. is truly an honor to the school as well as
to them~elves.
At the Oshkosh game their loyalty was sbo"·o
by their presence as well as by their songs and
cheers. And later on, when ~efeat came to tht>
boys, they not only encom-ageci them by words ,
but told them to go o~nd get games and a <:oach
and they w~ see that~ wt>re furnished.
.
We can say trul~· that our· girls are "true blue· "
and we can't Ia •v our defeats
to the lack of lovaltv
it
•
..
of the girls.
Several letters have been received by tbe manager of the Basket Ball team, asking for games.
No games have been arranged for, as nothingha.... _.
been done towards getting up a team; but the
prospects are good, as some of the old playeN4
are back.

are called carbo-hydrates.
\Vu studied the Potato because it is ''ery inter·

potato io made u1> o l hundred• of little cello each
of which contain• grain• ol starch.
We made Potatoo In the half shell. First, we
..ashed a potato and baked it. After the llOtatoe•
were bakecl,.. we cut them in two and scraped out
the lnsltle, IP3.\'ing tho shell clean and .,.,.hole. \V~
