Floy Wissler has been transferred
to the seventh grade.
The class in Plain Geometry find
plenty to keep them busy.
Drawing lessons will be given

The Caesar class is improving
every day and doing good work.
The ninth grade is doing some
splendid work with figures of
speech.
Nels johnson, our splendid janit-
or, was somewhat under the weather
tuesday.
The discussions in Political
Economy are enthusiastic and full
OF good thought.
Arthur Hansen of Brayton has
entered the sixth grade and expects
to attend here throughout the year.
Those pupils that have entered
the hrst grammer room from other
schools are taking up the work
nicely.
The Board have ordered the
necessary books which will be on
hand in a very few days, and surely
Will be appreciated by teachers and
pupils.
Rhetoricals are required in all
grades. This work will not be diff
t1cult but the fact that it is some
what new to the pupils makes it
seem hard for the first.
Last Saturday new single seats
were placed in the first grammar
room, which will be an aid to better
work quieter and a pleasanter
school. Teacher and pupils are
highly pleased.
The first grammer room will give
their first literary program next
Friday afternoon, after which
Rhetoricals will be given, by one
half the pupils every two weeks.
| All who are interested in the work
| The school year will be divided
into two terms or semesters of four
and one-half months in each. Reg
ular written examinations will be
given only at the end of each SEM
ester. A monthly record of class
work will however be sent to the
parents.
At the meeting of the School
Board last Friday evening the new
proposed Course of Study was
adopted. This remodels the work
OF the grades and highschool and
| places our school on the accredited
list OF the State University from
which it had been dropped.
| No pupil in either of the last four
grades of their school course can
do satisfactory work without an
average OF an hour to an hour and
halfs study at home. This is
necessary and will be insisted
upon. Pupils should make school
duties their first business and con-
slider all else secondary. Either do
your very best with what you have
before you or let it alone. 1t does
not pay to fall into the habit of halt
doing anything. Pupils of the
higher grades can and should make
it rule of their school life never to
come to class with an unprepared
lesson; and thus will your school
work be both enjoyable and profit
able and your hours of recreation a
pleasure. We will have the very
best text books published placed in
your hands in a few days. The
Course Of Study is up to date and
with every teacher doing all posi-
bic for your happiness and welfare
your opportunity is certainly a
| great one.
