FARMER HIGH SCHOOL An entertainment si yen laat Friday after noon by the primary department of the school, proved a gret success, and each "little tot" who said a "speech" did it with much credit, both to himself and the primary teacher, Miaa Marshall. We believe in these old time Friday evening speakings, snd think they should be put into practice more than they are in the rural schools. Uuder the supervision of the r teacher, the little iiunils had, on the day before, sent out invitations to their respective ''mammas" asking them to come to the entertainment. And it was easy to see in their faces how deliahted they were to know that their papas and mammas were interested enough to answer these invitations with their presence This program by the little folks was supple mented by a play, "To Meet Mr. Bradsuaw" oiven try nine of the laieernirla. The com plete success oi Uiis waa due to tne taol mat the name ef the gentlemen whom the nine girls were expecting to meet, w s kept a profound secret, the entire program wss much enjoyed. Wbea a cold becomes settle I in the sys tem, it will take several dava' treatment to cure it, and the best remedy to us a is Cham berlain a tough Keuiedy.
