get back to school once more, and of
course glad to see our teachers,
Miss Lucy Nunnally and Miss Addie

glad to get back to school that they
were here an hour before time.
After we took in school Miss Lucy
gave us a nice little talk. ‘ She told
us to study hard, and learn to behave
nicely at all times, to obey our teach¬
ers and above all to have good les¬
sons.
Two of the trustees were here at

the way to learn is to study and I am
going to study harder than ever.—

I am very sorry to write that our

it began last year.
Our teachers are just as they al¬
ways were, they do just as though
there were a hundred. We have
some good teachers and they take a
big interest in all the scholars. We
big school so thai we could keep our
other two teachers, for they were
both good and kind, and I hope they
will have success wherever they go.

POSE WHILE ASLEEP
English Society Adopts Fad
Started by Austrians.
Latest Craze Is Being Photographed
While Asleep—idea Comes From
Austria, Where It Is Al¬
ready Very Popular.
London.—The latest society craze
is being photographed while asleep.
The idea comes from Austria,
where it is already very popular, but
it has spread to Lcndon, and inquiries
may show that photographers have
begun to follow the fashion or are pre¬
pared to do so.
One well-known woman profession¬
al photographer recently caused a
small sensation by an exquisite pic-'
ture of a group of sleeping children
which she took, and other specialists
in portrait work are endeavoring to
emulate her, not only in pictures of
sleeping children, but in pictures of
oblivious grown-ups
Discussing the subject, Mr. George
Henry, the well-known portrait paint¬
er, said he could not understand why
anyone whose waking expression is
pleasant should want to be photo¬
graphed asleep.
“Still, there are some people whose
faces look better in repose," he
agreed. “There Is no expression to
be obtained from the eyes of a sleep¬
ing person, of course, but there may
be something undesirable banished
from the face.
“Many people go through life with
a set expression—a ‘purposeful mask’
-on their faces, but when asleep
they forget that set expression and
you catch them as they-really are.
“The chief difficulty in getting a
sleeping photograph is, 1 imagine that
no one—or few people—can go to
sleep at will. They may close their
eyes and pretend to be asieep, but
that does not give them a natural
sleeping look."
“I do not say that you will get a
true likeness of a person when asleep,
but you will certainly get a very in¬
teresting one,” said a well-known
sculptor. "The comparison between a
‘waking’ and sleeping portrait of the
same individual should be very inter¬
esting.
“The stress of modern life and con¬
ditions generally line and mark peo¬
ple’s faces, but sleep blots out much
of this facial disfigurement, and that
is one great reason why women espe¬
cially should go in for sleep photog¬
raphy. Children, too—although not,
of course, for the same reason—ought
to be ready and beautiful subjects.”
BOY SCOUT TROOP 111 AUSitA
Organization Was Effected by Rev.
Winfred H. Ziegler of Valdez—
Movement is Spreading.
New York.—Alaska has a fine troop
of Boy Scouts of America, according
to advices received here. The organ¬
ization was effected by Rev. Winfred
H. Ziegler of Valdez, Alaska. He has
gathered American boys and Indian
boys into patrols and is putting them
through the course of training for the
tenderfoot degree. The boys, it is re¬
ported, have taken eagerly to the
scout work, and under the guidance
of Mr. Ziegler, who is the head of an
Episcopal mission in that city, they
are not only engaging In hikes, bridge
building and camping, but are doing
many things to show their patriotism.
Mr. Ziegler has applied for a scout
master’s certificate through his broth¬
er, Rev. Howard B. Ziegler, who is
connected with St. Paul’s chapel. Win¬
fred Ziegler was assistant scout mas¬
ter of the Eighty-second New York
troop before going to Alaska. The
t 'moment there he decided that
he got
the educational and other advantages
of the scout movement were so great
that he wanted to start an organiza¬
tion at once.
Every territory and every colony of
the United States now has a troop of
the Boy Scouts of America. There are
troops of the Boy Scouts of America
in the Philippines, Hawaii, Porto Rico
and Alaska. The total number of
scouts In the colonies amounts to sev¬
eral thousands. The scout movement
also has spread to Cuba, Mexico, the
Bahamas and also there is a strong
organization in Canada.
