We expect to have an oratorical
contest among the High School pu-

i've to the oratorical contest of the
high schools of the Valley, which will
be held in Roswell in the spring.
The success of these athletic and
o~ratorical contests will depend upon
the interest manifested by the people
of Roswell in their public schools.
The contests mean much to our
schools in the way of creating and
fostering a healthy school spirit am
ong the pupils, and in showing a vital
interest on the part of the patrons
in our schools. All first class hign
schools have these contests and
meets, and the Roswell High School
can't afford to drop behind. The pu-
pills take a deep interest N these
things so them by your
presence and the small contribution
of money that will be charged as an

The teachers of the grades will fin

grades the first of next week. The
examinations ave been thorough and
have embraced the work done during
the term.
The students, as a whole, realized
at the beginning of school that they
must know their work thoroughly,
and a very large per centage of them
will pass the terms work. But there
will be some demotions in all the
failed this term have don so be-
cause they have not applied them
selves as they should to their studies.
Some of them have allowed the skat-
ing rink and the theatre to interfere
with their studies. But taking int
consideration the conditions under
which both pupils and teachers nave
labored the past term, the number
of failures has been few, indeed.
We expect much better work the
coming term ana we nope Uno Idll-
ures will be greatly reduced. The par
ents can be of great assistance along
this line by seeing that outside at
fractions do not interfere with the
home studies of their children.
The High School pupils will rende
their regular program Friday
afternoon at four O'Clock at the Cen
trail building.
The Eighth grade pupils will take
up the study of civics this coming
term.
Our grades are all crowded with
eager, enthusiastic pupils and more
are entering each week. The people
of Roswell will soon have to confront
the proposition of more school room.
We have had to turn away twenty-five
or thirty little children in the last
two months because we did not nave

pupils, and for the last three months
has resorted to halliday sessions in

We are not jealous of other mer-

to do business as we have, but we
try to set the pace. It is bosss idea
to lead and let the others follow.
He is paying me and the newspapers
to advertise the right business pol
icy and thereby help to make Bis

all the time he is going to boost.
