 DENT FLOYD.
No Eighth Grade h Elementary Schools as This fs Now Carried Over as First Grade of High
 School.

The oficial list of the text books to be used in the grades of the elementary schools of the city for the coming year has been given out by Superin- tendent Floyd, and 1t is announced that all of the books necessary for the elementary courses are to be had at the depository for the city schools.
 It will be observed that one of the grades has been left off, the eighth. It was explained to all of the pupils of the graduating class and entering eighth grade last June when the schools were closing, that in the fu- ture there would be no eighth grade. Pupils entitled to enter that grade would in the future attend the high school as the pupils of the first grade, making five grades in the high school instead of the four of former years.
 To meet the extra room require ments, the large assembly room at the girls high school has been made smaller. and the room for the extra grade put on that floor. At the boys high school on Clayton street no such remodeling was found necessary.
 Superintendent Floyd announces that the date for the ringing the bell on summer vacations will be the last Mon day in September, as fixed by the city statutes. Books may now be bought that everything nave move off smooth ly on September 2S.
