This town at its recent Town meet
ing increased it's appropriation for
the payment of High School tuition to
$3.50, thus providing with the State
Stipend $500 in all for High School
purposes. Because of this, the trus-
tees have voted to extend the Acad
envy year from 80 to 80 weeks and to
revise the courses of study to meet
the requirments of the State Superin-
tendent regarding the first years work
and to equip a suitable scientific lab
oratory. With this accomplished
there will be no excuse for any pupil
leaving this town to attend another
secondary school, for Somerset Acad-
envy with its new courses of study and
equipment and Prin. A. w. Boston at
its head can give them just az good
an education at home and at far less
