SCHOOLS NOW
IN GOOD SHAPE
Some Adjustments Had to be
Made for the Present
Term

Statistics of Wilmington's school popula-
tion for the term just begun show an in
crease of about 100 over last year. In some
schools this increase has necessitated a
slight Encouragement of classes. but on
the whole the city's school system was
well prepared to receive even a much
larger increase.
The High School was affected noticeably
by the increase this term and as result
40 pupils in the sixth grade of the gram
mar department were sent 20 School No.
2S. The High School population is now 2s'
boys and 42S girls and 223 in the grammar
department.
Four new teachers have been added to
the High school. They are Miss Christine
Fellows. A. NJ; Miss Edith Supplee and
Miss Rachel G. Robinson in the High
School department and Miss Lucy NJ
Carvin in the grammar department The
only changes in other schools to meet the
increase this term were made at Schoo
No. l6, colored; and at School No. L.
class room of children from School No. II
has been sent to the new colored schoo
over Eleventh street bridge, and a tenth
grade, the highest in the primary grades
has been added to School No II. This has
saved the children the trouble of com
ing over the bridge to School No. 20, a.
