| The Winslow public school
will open on Monday, the 18th
day of September, with Prof.
Hickey as principal, Miss Alex
ander in charge of the interme-
diate department, and Misses
Cavanaugh and Henderson in
the primary department. Our
scholastic population has in
creased SO greatly and the schol-
arship improved to such an ex-
tent that a graded school has
become imperative. The trus-
tees realizing this fact, have eX-
erCised the greatest care in Sc
lecting teachers. Prof. Hickey
and Miss Alexander come with
recommendations that would
justify their employment in the
higher branches of a Normal
school, Misses Cavanaugh and
Henderson are eminently quail
fed to fill their positions in any
school. Parents or guardians
who have children of school age
can rest assured that the coming
term, SO far as scholarship and
experience in teaching is con-
cerned, will be second to none
in the territory.
