Vaccination of Pupils.
Owing to the fact that there has
been more or less exposure from
smallpox at the Horace Mann and
Longfellow schools, and the city
health commissioner considers an
emergency to exist. the board voted
that pupils from those schools be at
once vaccinated.
Bonds TO the value of $25. 900 ma
turing June l were ordered paid out
of the fund created by the payment
of the insurance on the high school.
Two Remington and two Ham
mond typewriters were ordered for
use of the business class at the high
school, to be paid for at the begin
ming of the next school year.
Plans Soon Ready.
The building committee reported
that the plans for the proposed high
school will be ready Tuesday, Msy
81, and when the board adjourned it
was to meet again on that date.
There was some question whether
to follow the usual custom of observ-
ing Memorial day by closing the
schools, owing to the fact that this
year it falls on the day previous to
the last day of school. but upon the
assurance of Supt. Hayden that it
could be arranged for with little in
convenience, holiday was voted.

month ending May a total enroll
ment for the year OF 3. 67S, gain of
