The pupils who made the highest
average on a written examination
at the close of the first month are:
Ninth grade, Maud Platt
Seventh grade, Rosa Jamie
Fourth grade, Irwin Rollins
High third grade, Frank Angle
Low third grade, Mary Throm
Second grade, Ruben Mcdaniel
First grade, Bertie Rogers
Chart class, Bertie Throm.
The following is comparative
record of the enrolment, number
of tardies, and per cent of attend
ance in the different rooms.
In Miss Caruthers room, No. pu-
pills enrolled, 35, No. tardies, So,
per cent Of attendance, 90.
Miss Tuttle's room, No. pupils
enrolled 46, No. tardies 40, per
cent of attendance 98.
Mrs. Davis room No. pupils, en-
rolled 55, No. tardies Is, per cent
of attendance 90.
Miss Covert's room, No. pupils en-
rolled &C, No. tardies IA, per cent
of attendance 92.
1t will be noticed that the older
pupils make by far the largest
number of tardies. Let us again
ask the parents most earnestly to
help us to break up this habit of
tardiness and make every effort to
keep the children in school every
day. 1t is not justice to the child
nor to the school to keep your
children out Of school one or two
days of every week. The loss of
one lesson may cripple childs
progress for days.
We are pleased to record very
pleasant call during the month
from Mr.. Ijams, Mrs. Sydow, Mrs.
Freeman and Mrs. Iams, Mrs.
Jennings, Mrs. Morrison, Mrs.
Todd, Mrs. Dunlap and Mrs. Pow.

New York, Aug. 6.-The early dealings

chow some considerable losses as the gem

cially notable in the Pacihcs. Northern

rate would he Increased at the to-day's
meeting. The stock fell back IL when
the declaration of the same rate of diV
dend as the last was announced. Sugar
weakened on the report of the shading
of several grades of soft sugar. The
more cheerful feeling regarding the iron
and steel stocks lifted prices IN that
group. Colorado fuel was conspicuous.
The preferred stock was bid up from 40
TO LIS. at which price 100 shares changed
hands. Tho bid price was then further
advanced to 127i3 without bringing out
stock. Preparations for export of gold on
Wednesday were reported. Sterling cN-
change rose an additional fraction. The
