 It Is interesting to note that the present graduating class of the Girls High School is the largest in its his- tory.

The work being done in the Boys High School is most thorough and cofnpre- hensive, although the attachments of this branch of the public schools of Montgomery has never received a great deal of recognition. A diploma from the school represents a course of suc- cessful study which entities it's owner to enter the sophomore class of any college in the South. The excellence of the Boys High School is being de- monstrated yearly and the high stand ard of achievement demanded of the graduates is noteworthy.
