The proposition to provide a eonven- ^ tion hall in thie city has been discussed ^ several times during the past ten years, ten thousand dollars having been invested in a bond issue ordinance for the purpose at one time and the bonds probably sold, though we do not recall whether they were or not. The Board ^ of Trade resolutions, recently passed, . suggest that such a hall be erecto*- Did t it ever occur to its sponsors that the f saying need for a high school building ^ can be met and that in such a building ^ properly constructed an auditorium ( could be included, large enough to seat a ( convention of one thonsand. There ^ would be fiothing to hinder the use of , such an auditorium from early in June ( to September for any convention pur- ( pose whatever, and such convention# aa ^ have been held here have been held dur- _ iug this period of the year. A high j school building or some other form of en- ( largement of our school facilities is imperatively needed, has been needed for three years or more, and should be given ( the right of way in the list of contemplated improvements, above everything else.

"While conducting a research for inon the origin of certa'in fash- * of the past," writes "Zira" in CarMarine. "I discovered the reason the existence of the squeak in shoes. The squeak was once deemed fashionable, and men of great importance in the affairs of the country demanded it in their footwear, and cobblers were paid shillings extra for putting it. in . squeaky boot denoted the approach of someone of importance, and the way was made clear at once in the same manner as a bicycler's shrill whistle warns to look to your interests. During the squeaky period men found it difficult sneak into the house after twelve P. M. without being discovered and disgraced. Removing the shoes' before entering the home is an invention which followed the squeaky shoe era and, while the former is now almost obsolete, the latter is still in vogue and as popular as ever with married men!"
