The School.

Two months of school have closed with total enrolment of 180. For the month ending November g the average attendance was 130, an in- crease of 10 over previous month. The results from the second months work were more satisfactory than the first, and, on the whole, there was gener- al improvement in the school. But that it has yet approximated our ideal we would not for a moment as- sert. The position the teachers occupy is a trying one but they are not on that account discouraged or discomfted. We only hope that parents will bear with us and remember that we are putting forth our best efforts for their children. We have made and will continue to make mistakes, but they will be of the head and not of the heart. It may not be generally known that teachers are fallible and have the same limitations in common with the rest of the race. That such is the case, however, no one will deny. At all times it will be pleasure to the teachers to confer with parents about their children and to have them visit the school.
 While it is true that two teachers cannot handle to the best advantage 150 pupils or more, composing five grades, it is hoped that no pupil will stop school, and we assure parents that if their children attend regularly that "somehow or somehow else" "they will complete the work of the various grades to which they belong.
 Respectfully,

CIGAR STUBS OF CRIMINALS.
They Have n Generic similarity OF

According 10 Prof Hans Gross, Of
Berlin. valuable clews toward tie de-
lection of criminals may be obtained
through an examination of cigar tips.
OF course, this applies TO those who
smoke cigars the tips of which they
care,essly throw away in the street or
elsewhere, SAYS the London News.
If You pick up any tip he says,
"aud examine it closely the chances are
that YOU will be able 20 learn some
thing as TO the personality and social
position of the man who threw il away.
In the case of criminals the first point
10 be considered is the manner in which
It was cut of from the cigar. If a
knife or any other instrument was
used for this purpose, then this instru-
ment Will doubtless be found on the
criminal. If, on the other hand, il was
bit of with the teeth, a thorough eN-
animation of the tip will show what
kind of teeth were used for this pur.
pose.
