A LITERARY SOCIETY
One of the features that we as an
enterprising student body, lack, is a
literary society• The occasional sug-
gestions that we have had, failed to
inspire any notable enthusiasm. This
.is due chiefly to the prevailing idea
that the activities of such a society
would consist of writing irksome
themes on dry-as-dust subjects. But
themes could be omitted entirely•
The time could be devoted to the
reading and discussion of any inter-
esting field of literature, the best
short stories for instance. Besides
the entertainment afforded, it would
greatly assist all English students in
their work and thereby win the un-
dying gratitude of the English teach-
ers--a thing that surely wouldn't
come amiss. --A Student.
TRIOS
Three things to love: Courage,
months, returned to Shclton last week
and they will resume their studies in
the Freshman Class for the remain-
der of the year.
Last Friday we had no entertain-
ment because of the failure of the.
president to appoint a committee. We
have assemblies every Friday but we
seldom have an entertainment, the
entertainment generally being sick
(?), called out of town (?), so of
course it is not the 'committee's fault.
We expect a good entertainment this
week because the Junior Class is the
entertainment committee and if they
fail us you will hear about it next
week.
Vera Dunbar and Murtle Kent of
the Freshman Class left school lost
week. Vera is working in the tel-
ephone office and Myrtle being em-
ployed in the Montana Cafe.
The Seniors invite the Alumni and
their friends to the Senior Ball which

ity of reading this announcement.

Seattle, March 31.--The State Vet-
ens' Welfare Commission announces
that thousands of returned service
men from the Great War who are
entitled to compensation through dis-
ability incurred while serving with
the colors w.ill lose their benefits by
lack of attention. A government reg-
ulation provides they must file appli-
cation for compensation within one
year from their date of discharge or
release, and those failing to do sc
will be eliminated or seriously de-

It is stated that most of the vet-
l erans who were seriously incapaci-
i tated have had their claims adjusted,
/but those with minor injuries have
to l faile d to gain advantage of their
[rights. In order to hasten their dis-
to ]charge, ninny stated they were in
good physical condition and there-
[fore have an erroneous idea they arc
not compensable. Likewise, some be-
lieve they have no claims because the
defect was not notd on their discharge
i or because they were not in the
front line trenches. The government
however, has recognized these acts
were due to the natural enthusiasm
of the boys in their desire to return
home, an'd has waived them as a
gentleness, affection.

Three things to contend for: Honor,

Three things to govern: Temper,

The Junior and Senior ball teams

Frank Fredson Jr. who has con-

flies to the outfield and thus began
the first real practice. We hope that
the weather will clear up so that
barrier to compensation.

Extensive Additions Being Made to
the Brunswick Tire Plant.
An announcement of significant
importance has just come from the
general offices of The Brunswick-
Balke-Collender Co., at Chicago, rel-
ative to the enlargement of their tire
factories and the installation of an
enormous amount of new equipment.
"Estimates just approved show that
the new Brunswick Tire Factory at
Muskegon, Michigan, will cost a
million and a half dollars," said H.
F. Davenport, secretary. "In ddi-
tion to this expenditure for build-
ings," continued Mr. Davenport, "we
have contracted for new eqmpment
:and improved processes that will add
at least $250,000 more to our Musk-
egon investment. Also we will in-
crease our housing accomodations for
l employees and thus be assured of
l additional and high-type and skilled
workers."
The new Brunswick factories are
being built by the Osborn Engin-
eering Co., of Cleveland, Ohio, who
have become celebrated for their
knowledge and ability in designing
and constructing the most efficient
tire factories.
Because of the popularity and de-
mand Brunswick Tires enjoy, these
makers have been forced to provide
these factory expansions and still
another program of construction is
planned for 1921, we are informed.
