BOARD OF EDUCATION
important Business Transacted. Report
of Supt. Williams Filled.

The Board of Education met last
evening with Messrs. Curtis, Nielsen
heder, Dye and Richardson present.
The usual routine business relating
to the conduct of the various schools
and the adding of improvements to the
several school buildings and grounds
was gone through with.
The committee appointed for the Sc
lection of suitable place in which to
hold the opening devotional exercises
of the High School reported favorably
on the selection of a room in the FlrEt
M. E. chhtch. The report was adopted
and the High School will meet at the
place selected for the first time Friday
morning. aoss%
Sup" Williams reported that the
Baptist church had asked for the priv
elege of using a room. in. the, Fulton
burg school Sunday afternoon for mis-
sion purposes. The church agreed to
stand good for any damages done to
furniture or books during it's occu-
pancy and also to pay costs of heating
and so forth.
The Superintendent's report was
presented last night and is full of in.
terest and incidentally Of surprise to
the majority of the city's citizens. A
comparison of the record of attendance
made last year and the one which was
compiled by the Superintendent fol-
the past two months presents the most
convincing evidence possible of Mari
etta's growth and increase in popula-
tion since last fall. While it was
known by the general public that the
increase in pupils over last year was
sufficient to cause the erection of q
new building anduthe extension and
amplfication of others, the extent OF
this unprecedented requirement ol
new pupils by the schools of the city
was not a matter of general informa.
tion. The knowing that the detailed
report would be of interest to it's read
ers, the Leader gives the following list
of the attendance at the several
f, buildings. The list is accurate and is
not guesswork, but an actual authoriZ-
ed statement of the facts. The schoo
register shows the following results:
