standard. Pupils from this school are transferred
to the Norral School soon as they reach proper
state of preparation for more difficult studies. It

bers until yesterday 1t registered 914 pupils. It's
average attendance is 60 per CENT 1t requires three
department principals aud seventeen class teachers.
The male department has 1872 pupils. the female 256,
and the primary ATT. Spelling, reading, writing and
arithmetic are taught in all classes. History in two
ard grammar in one. The pressure In the primary
department has been great as to necesstate four
or five promotions to the grammar department, in
eighteen months. Tho educational grade of the
