 The public schools of Globe will re- open on Monday, September s, for the fall session and large enrolment is expected. All pupils who expect to attend school this year should call on the superintendent, at the Central school September 1 to 4, between the hours of and 1, for the purpose of registering and receiving their assign ment cards. Pupils without promo tion cards and reports from their for mer teachers may arrange to take their entrance examinations on the same dates. Written examinations will be required of all who are not proper ly classified and no favoritism will be shown auy one. All those who were absent from school last year during the month of May are in this list, and will be required to take the eXamina- tions before being admitted to any of the Globe schools.
 Miss Elsie H. Gum, an A. B. grad
 
 uate of the University of California, has been assigned to the principalship of the South Side school. Mir. John T. Hefey, an A. B. graduate of the Uni versity of Oklahoma, will have charge of the sixth and seventh grade and will act as principal in the Central school Miss Annie Maude Hord, of the Texas State Normal school, will act as principal of the North Side school. Miss Augusta Commentz, of | the Wisconsin normal, will have charge of the fourth and fifth grades in the Central school. Miss Eloise Oliver, of the New York state normal, will un- eighth grade, and Miss Lnlu B. Win gar, of the Arizona normal, will have the work in the first and second grades aU the Cen raj school The tenth and eleventh grades will recite to the su- | perrin tendent, and the niuth grade will be divided between the principal and the superintendent. This arrange ment is made necessary by the increase in the number of grades for this year.
 Recognition has been accorded our nigh school courses by all the state | universities in the surrounding west. ern states, 50 that graduates from these courses may be admitted to any of these institutions without examina- ton. The University of Arizona, at | Tucson, was the first to accord us this recognition, and we shall ever feel grateful to it's distinguished president Prof. Yale Adams for this favor. Our courses as at present arranged will bear favorable comparison with those found in the high schools ot Phoenix, Los Angeles and other western cities, and there is apparently no reason why the young people of Globe should seek this instruction in other places when 1t can be had just as well in their home school
 1t may be of interest to our patrons to know that music will be added to our course of study during the coming year, and Miss Oliver who has had exceptional advantages ln this subject will act as supervisor for the primary and grammar grades Miss Augusta Commentz will act as supervisor of physical culture and we have every reason to believe that she will have the same success here as that which crowned her efforts in the schools of Appleton, Wisconsin, last year.
 The library will also be enlarged and enriched with a great many new and valuable books, and in order that it may be more accessible and conven- ient it will be moved to the vestibue on the first floor. It is hoped that the citizens of the town will assist us in increasing the library and it's useful ness by donating any books which they have read and do not care to retain. Those who make such donat- ions will be allowed the same library privileges as are now extended to our pupils. One hundred dollars worth of books have been added to our list during the past year and we would like to double this amount during the coming year. At present We are not supplied with good histories and en- cyclopeadias and donations from these sources will be especially appreciated.
 Arrangements have been made for holding Reclamation contests some time in November or December and handsome gold medals for this occas- ion have been generously offered by President J. N. Porter, of the Bank of Globe. Sometime later during the year it is proposed to hold an oratorial contest provided sufficient interest is taken in the enterprise.
 Other announcements concerning the work of the school will be made after its opening on September Sth.

 superintendent.
