In issuing diplomas. the board
has been very conservative. A
good many others were very near
the mark and we hope that we
have not discouraged anyone.
We feel. however, that TO give a
diploma that is not earned is a
more serious mistake than 10 with,

Eighth Grade Examination.

One hundred sixty students
wrote the eighth grade examina-
ton in Charlevoix county on May
Sc.
The list Of questions this year.
while it was very comprehen.
sive, was considered to be verv
fair one.
The results were verv crafty
ing to,the tear hers Of the county
in general. The average stand
ing of the pupils this year is some.
what higher than that of previous
years, yet close examination of
the records discloses the fact that
the work is not so we'll balanced
as that of former years, numer.
Gus cases icing noted in which
the stndent has earned very high
marks in half or more of the sub.
jects while their marks in the
others would be so low that we
could notissue diplomas.
We do not know whether this
is caused by the tendency of the
times to specialize or by weak.
ness on the part of the teacher or
pupils in handling certain sub
jects but we are at a loss to know
why student WHO can write a
paper that is worth 50 per cent
in arithmetic and grammer should
earn but IL per cent in geography
or why another who earns 81 per
cent in arithmetic and 81 per cent
in geography should get but II
per cent IN grammer.
Such examples as these kept
the number of diplomas granted
away below what the general
work of the applicants would
seem to warrant.
In Boyne twenty.three diplo-
mas were issued. In Charlevoix
while but three diplomas were is
sued. yet twelve of the students
passed in everything excepting
Civil Govt. which is twelfth
grade subject in the school there
and the students were not expect
ed to write good papers in that
subject.
In East Jordan but part of the
class wrote. Seven diplomas
we're issued and several other
students will be allowed to take
ninth grade work and make up a
subject or two in which they were
low.
We will not take the space to
print the names of the students
from the villages as they will
probably be given by the Super
intendepts reports. The follow.
ing students from the rural
schools were given diplomas
