In two rooms, Miss Stearns and Miss
Detwiler's, there has not been a case of
hardness this year. The pupils of
these two rooms are determined to
keep up this good record.
Two new pupils, Wyman Harvey and
Percy Scott, both from Extra, entered
school Monday. Both were placed in
room seven.
Mr.. John A. Nash the president of
the school board, gave an excellent
talk to the little people of rooms three
and four last week. The little people
are glad to have Mr.. Nash with them.

CHRISTMAS IN HARD TIMES.

Thanksgiving day is hardly past be-
fore Christmas looms up on the horizon.
1t is but three weeks until the Yuletide
season is upon us. The half-planned
preparations must begin in good ear
nest. Usually Christmas is the holiday
anticipated with the most pleasure of
all the festal days of the year. But
this winter st. Nicholas himself appears
like something of monster. Where
are Christmas trees and full stockings
to come from when the agents of the
dear old saint have so much difficulty in
collecting his good-natured taxes ? His
pack will be lighter than usual this
year and his RENDERS will have a
shorter nights gallop.
The children are beginning to talk of
their great expectations, while their Ell.
ders are puzzling over impossible ways
and means of realizing them and dis
charging the social obligations the sea-
son brings. TO many family, accus-
toned to some little celebration, Christ
mas this season will be but name.
Sensible people among the many who
will still observe the day, will recognize
| it as q hard times Christmas and make
the best of it from that national stand.
