Officers,

Not in a year has the Greenvi1le Repub-
lican League held such a successful event
as thai of Saturday evening, when the
first progressive euehre ever given by the
club took place. The clubhouse was
filled with members, a scene which vas
never witnessed under the reign of the
officers of last year. Members left by the
score because of the management of the
clubs affairs. and vowed they would
never be active workers Until a certain
element was gotten rid of. This was ac-
complished when the present officers took
charge, and the change became appar-
ent almost Immediately. New members
are coming in each week and the organl-
zatlon is in a fair way to regain it's old
position.
The euchre showed plainly the interest
taken for the members were out in force.
Eleven tables are used. The crowd was
a jolly one, and the two hours OF play
passed away pleasantly.
Among those who won prizes were

bottles of VINE. An informal entertain-
ment followed, after which lunch was
served. The merry gathering did net
break up until after the clock in St.
Paurs tower rang out the midnight holr.

SCHOOL NO. Is OPEN
Over -Four Hundred Seats
Occupied This Morning
= Crowds Of Visi-
tors Yesterday.

The new No. 26 School, at Palisade and
Reservoir avenues, opened this morning
with 4s3 Of its 600 seats occupied. About
800 of the children had been transferred
to the new school to relieve the over
crowded condition of Nos. 6 and 5, and
the remainder were some of those who
had been without permanent school
homes. 1t is expected that all the avail
able seats will be occupied before the end
of the present week.
The new schoolhouse was again
thronged with visitors yesterday. All af-
%ternoon, parents whose { children have
been denied admission to other schools
on account of lack of room passed
through the new building inspecting its
perfect details, happy in the thought
that their little ones had at last been
provided with a school home.
Committees from the Hudson City I'M
provement Association and the Teutonia
Maennerchor, both Of which o~rganiza-
ions will take part in the opening exer-
cises on the evening of February IA, con-
ferred with Director Mersheimer yester-
day afternoon. An elaborate programme
is being prepared. The exercises will be
open to the public generally, and no spe-
cial invitation will be necessary to OBJ
tain admittance.
Director Mersheimer has been visited
by many parents living outside of the
district lines from which No. 26 scholars
must come, and who were anxious to
have their children admitted to the new
school. Others living within the lines
wanted their children to be permitted to
remain at the schools which they were
attending instead of being transferred to
the new school. The Director wishes it
announced that such applications are
useless, as the matter is entirely in the
hands of Superintendent Henry F. Sny-
der, who has carefully prepared a list.

The company operating the new Bethle-

capital stock of $500, 600. The interested
parties are now turning their attention
this way and are looking after fran

There was not only large increase in
