CHANGES IN BOOKS.
Necessitated by Rearrangement
of Classes i'm the Pub
lie Schools.
CLOSE OF FIRST HALF OF YEAR,

Supt. h. C. Young Discusses Advance
ment of Pupils in the Various Grades
and Tells About the Studies That Are
TO be Taken Up-Some Information Val
liable to Those Interested.
The first half of the school year
closes tomorrow, Jan. -. At this
time several changes take place in 4
number of the classes which, Supt.
X. G. Young states. it may be well to-
mention for the information of those
interested. These changes are made
necessary by reason of the regular
advancement of the pupils and are
therefore in the nature of promotions
to more advanced work.
The changes referred to are as fol-
lows: First grade pupils begin
Barnes first reader. Second grade
pupils having completed their first
copy books are Gadyauced to the
second of the series, shorter course
No. ,. Third grade pupils who have
thus far used no book in arithmetic,
now take up the Werner arithmetic.
No. /. This is the book just adopted
by the board of education, and so can
be had at exchange rates-an old book
end 81 cents. or 10 cents without the
old book. The purchase of this book
now will obviate the necessity of Pur-
chasing a book at the beginning OF
the Fourth grade, as has been the GUS
tom heretofore.
Special Promotions.
Nearly or quite $50 pupils of the
Second grades in various schools of
the city who are qualified by reason
of the length of time they have been
in school, wilfbe advanced by special
promotion to the Third grade next
Monday. These pupils will need in
addition to the arithmetic, spelling
book, language book and third
reader.
Fourth grade pupils regularly begin
the advanced work in spelling and
will need Reeds Word Book. Classes
in the Fifth grade at this time COM
plete the elementary geography and
will therefore need the Barnes Com
plete Geography.
Seventh grade pupils are complet-
ing the advanced geography and will
take up Barnes United States history,
while the Eighth grade classes will
begin elementary algebra. On March
l Eighth grade pupils will drop United
States history and begin the constitu-
ton of the United States.
Necessary Changes.
All the above changes in the work
of the classes, except those caused by
the special promotions, are regular and
are made necessary by the advance
ment of pupils. Such changes are
made at the beginning and the middle
OF the year and are the necessary re-
suit of the progress of the pupils in
scholarship.
Supt. Young hopes parents will be
prompt in supplying their children
with the necessary books in order that
the work of the remainder of the year
may not be hindered. The purchase
OF these books ut this time will obvi-
ate the necessity of making these
purchases at the beginning of the next
school wear
