The practice school during Mrs. Hoods absence will be under the direct supervision of Dr. McNaughton, his daughter, Miss Amina w. McNaughton, relieving him of the academic work. The drawing class in charge of Miss Harriet Morton will meet thoroughly organized tomor- row. Miss Morton will organize an etching club and judging from present tendencies membership in it will be highly prized. Miss Fanny Bury will organize a glee club with the pur- pose of making it splendid company. It will be composed of young ladies who will give to music the time given to military drill by the young gentle men. It is not too much to suppose that during the year the boys will drill to the music Of their fairer school mates. Vertical handwriting has been made compulsory in the normal this year. It was taught last year, but whether CT not it should be taken was at the option of the students.

 There was teachers meeting of the public school this afternoon for the purpose Of organizing the years work and apportioning it among the teach CTS. From present indications the school will suffer this year in attend ance. The normal is taking larger number this year and the parochial school instituted by Father WesthOff will take nearly sixty Mexican chil- dren. For this, as near as can be learned, Father Westhoff and the Mex ican parents can hardly be criticised as the children were too slow to keep up with the rest, mostly on account of not being able to understand the Eng fish language readily, and consequently they could not be kept in school, which condition was not very conducive to an average education.
