SCHOOL, SCHOoL!SCHOOL

ochool Will open on Wednesday
morning, September 10Th. All the
departments will open at that time
and continue fo- a term of nine
months. We hope that all pupils
of a schoolable age will be in school
on the above named morning ready
for a most successful years work.
There will be no graduating class
at the end Of the school year as one
more years work has been added to
the course, which was a ten years
course. 1t is the aspiration of the
school board to ultimately have a
welve years course, at which time
Webster will have one of the few
irst class schools of the state. Our
tile city is first class In many
Ether respects, and in a few years
Fupils graduating from the Webster
khools will be able to enter the"Uo
rom our schools.
No pupils under five years of age
ill be admitted to the First Pri-
barry, as we are not able at this
me to handle pupils younger than
Eve.
Any one desiring to purchase
looks will please buy no books I'M
ii hearing directly from the teacher
nder whom such pupil may be, by
o doing such ones can save money.
We trust all pupils will enter the
very first morning, and should any
2areless pupils remain away and
continue to absent themselves from
school, any one knowing of such
would confer a favor by notifying
he principal or the president of
he school board, and at once action
viii be taken to have them enter
,ur schools.
Our building is new, we'll venti-
ated, seated and heated, and we
rust the parents of pupils who
lave been in the habit of destroying
