sion at first but experience quickly de-
cided the change. The officers are a
Mayor, a Board of Supervisors COM
posed of seven members, all of whom
must be members of the highest
grade of the school; a Clerk, Judge.
an Attorney, a Sheriff, a Deputy
Sheriff, all of these hereafter to be
elective; and a Chief Sanitary Inspec-
tor, Road Supervisor, Truant officer,
Poundmaster, Supervisor of Public
Works and Librarian, and three cleo
ton inspectors who are to be appoint
ed by the Board of Supervisors.
The duties of each of these offices
are those which would naturally be
expected from the title of the office,
modified by the needs and, limitations
of the school city. For instance, the
Chief Sanitary Inspector and his as
sistants are required to inspect daily
all parts of the school city and see that
they are made clean and kept in good
and sanitary condition. The Pound
master looks after and receives all ar
ticles lost and found and gets them to
their owners.
The work of the sanitary inspectors
has been SO effective that the school
grounds are kept in better condition
than ever before. There is a growing
appreciation of the appropriateness of
we'll kept grounds. That is the object.
The work that is done in keeping the
grounds in good shape is not done for
the exercise of the work, nor even to
teach the dignity of labor, but as
Principal Davis expresses it, 'for the
educative effect; to accustom them to
recognize that tidy, sanitary, well-kept
buildings and grounds are the natural
things, and the habit thus acquired
will be carried into the home, and in
to the business of life hereafter"
Where there are duties and obliga-
tions and only human beings to bear
and perform them, there is pretty GER
tain TO be some duties shirked, some
obligations violated. This calls for
courts to hear and punish, and the
school city has it's police court with
a session every day at 1890 o'clock
The constitution declares that there
shall be but one law in the Royal
School City, and that law shall be
Do Right. This shall mean that each
citizen shall do unto every other. citi-
zen as he would have every other eiti-
zen do to him. When there is any
doubt about what is right or wrong
the Principal shall be the judge in
the matter. All punishments for vio-
lations of the law shall consist of the
loss of some privilege, or the doing of
some extra task.
The Board of Supervisors meets once
a week. The election will come just
as soon as the pupils become suffi-
GENTLY interested and informed. This.
is what Principal Davis says of the
workings of the experiment:
THUS far the experiment has been
fairly successful. This is shown in the
earnest manner in which both officers
and citizens have taken hold; it also
expresses Itself in neater rooms, clean

er halls, better kept school grounds
and in gentler manners throughout the
whole city. Just how much of this is
due to the novelty of the thing can
not, at this time, be estimated; but if
such is the case to any considerable
| degree it becomes the task of the
teachers to devise ways and means of
sustaining the interest"
This improved care of the buildings
and grounds is accomplished by the
pupils themselves. Each pupil devotes
one hour a week to the manual labor
assigned him under the law of the
city" AS was said, the object of this
labor is not primarily to care for the
buildings and grounds nor to teach the
dignity of labor but for its educative
influence. The kind of work done will
be seen from the report of the Chief
Sanitary Inspector. the Superintendent
of Public Works, and the Road Super
visor, specimen reports of which and
other officers are given in this article.
The officers of the Royal School City
are as follows:
Mayor-Alex. Asam.
Board of Supervisors-Abbie Oni.
Jennie Wong. Kappa All Lo, Miriam
Fern, Frank Rodrigues, Henry All
Young, Robert All Wal.
CIerk-George Nunes.
Judge-Toyoichi Nakamura.
Police Clerk-Stanley Shaw.
Sheriff-Henry NakaiawaIu Ali
Deputy Sheriff-Peter Kinolau Ka-

Manuel Miguel.
Road Supervisor-Naohe Hamaguchi.
Chief Sanitary nspector-Masaats
Shibata.
Attorney-Sam Smith.
Truant Officer-Benjamin Nakila.
Poundmaster-Char Spencer.
Librarian-Rebecca Koo.
Besides these there are twenty po-
licemen and twelve sanitary inspectors.
In the police court a very simple
procedure is followed. Pupils arrested
by the police for violations of the laws
of the City are brought into court by
the sheriff. There is a hearing both
against the accused and in his behalf.
and sentence to an extra half hours
work or more or less according to the
gravity of the offence, or of denial of
some accustomed privileges for a linn
tied time.
The Board of Supervisors conducts
its proceedings in a simple but parlia-
mentary fashion, and reports of all
executive officers are made to the
board, acted on by the board, and are
filed away by the clerk.
The school exercises begin in the
morning as at other schools with the
assembly of the pupils and the salute
to the flag. One of the illustrations
given herewith is of the school as
sembled ready to give the salute to the
flag and proceed 20 their rooms.
Nothing can show the actual work
ings of the School City better than the
reports of the officers and heads of
departments. which are here given ex-
actly as they are made. imperfections

The progress of this experiment is
being watched with much interest by
many in the community. Superintend-

course, very much interested in it.
Former Governor George r. Carter

it considerable attention. He has been
a spectator of all the processes of the

in bed Sunday morning at her residence
on Slate avenue in Mortified. She rs.
tired in her usual health and when she

life had been extinct for some hours.
The cause Of death was due to heart

at two o'clock from the Congregational
church, Rev. j y. Sargent officiating.
The burial will be at the Center Gene

The following tribute to this worthy
woman IS kindly furnished BY her pas
tor:
THE community was greatly panied
on Sunday morning last 10 learn OF the
death Of Mrs. Guild. As she had been
about her usual work on Saturday, her
death came as great shock to her fam
lily and friends Sarah j. Clough was
born in Nershme, VT. 65 years ago, her
parents removing to Mortified, when she
was bat six weeks old. Early in life
she united with the Congregational
church In Barre ana later removed her
church connections TO Lowell, Mass,
where she resided for q time. On Janu-
aig ., 1892, she became member OF the
Congregational church in this town,
where the greater part Of her life has
been spent
Twelve years ago she was married
70 Dan Guild, whose death of pneumonia
two weeks later left her again alone
! Thus are chronicled some of the events
Of her life, but Of her faithful and un-
selfish life work none but those who
knew her well could understand She
often sacrificed her own inelmations for
the sake Of being helpful to Others
Deeply interested in missionary and
lphianthropio enterprises, she was gener-
Gus at the expense Of her own ease and
comfort,
For some years impaired health has
made it difficult for her to listen to
public speaking, but her continued con.
slant attendance at church and Sunday
school witnessed 20 her love for the
church All its interests were dear TO
her and in her death the church loses a
most faithful member 10 say that she
