PEARL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
Many improvements are being made
at this school, which are both useful
and ornamental. In a few days the
exterior view of the building will be
as pretty and as pleasing to the eye
as any school building in the city.
The superintendent of schools, Prof.
II. C. Weber, has directed the school
painters to paint the woodwork OF the
building, giving it two coats and also
to paint the tin roof. The first coat
has been applied and the building has
begun already to look bright and fresh.
Some days ago the principal asked |
that a brick walk be laid across the
front yard so that the girls of the First
Floor would not have to pass out or
the school yard to the sidewalk and
back again in going out at recess. Ihe
Superintendent at once granted this
request and had the bricks sent down
and soon the girls will have a new
brick walk.
Two nice, large, new clocks now
hang on the walls of the rooms OF the
Manual Training Department.
The girls in the cooking classes can
now cook their foods and boil their
eggs by clocl1-time Your reporter

time Leasing was so absorbed in study
that he forgot to eat. When the pangs
of hunger touched him he called for a

egg, whereupon Leasing commanded
her to leave, saying that he would
J boil the egg himself. On departing

egg lust five minutes. After remain
