THE SCHOOLS ARE NOW OPEN
Prospects for Successful Year Are
Very Bright.

The Yerington schools opened for the
fall term on August 29, with good en-
rollment. There is only one change in
the teaching force, the new member
being Miss Mckay, who has charge of
the grammar department.
One or two innovations have seemed
advisable ana desirable This year a
reward system has been inaugurated
When a pupil is perfect i'll attendance,
conducts himself satisfactorily, and re
ceives IS per cent. or over in his studies,
he will be given two holidays on the
fourth Thursday and Friday of the
school month. During those two days
drills and tests will be given to the
children, who for any reason, failed to
subject
Music and drawing are receiving es-
pecial attention and will no doubt prove
very valuable to all the pupils.
The afternoon recess has been elm
mated and school closes at $50. This
change has met with approval on all
sides.
Many of the pupils have not vet en-
tered, but it is to be hoped that they
will not delay, as regular work began on
the first day of school and each day lost
means work to make up before the first
month ends.
The basketball teams will soon be
organized and other sports will be in
troduced when the cooler weather ar
rives. Many friends OF this school and
city are hoping that several patrols of
American Boy Scouts will be organized
by the men of the city. All the men
with military training have a great work
ready to hand.
Great interest is manifested bv all the
pupils aud we hope the parents will lend
all the assistance possible. II YOU visit
the school, make friends of the teachers,
study the needs OF the school. you will
then be prepared to build for your chill
dren, in the near future, such building
as will be credit to your city and
lasting benefit to your children. Give
them good chance for the education,
that as free born American citizens,
they are entitled to.

PRIMARY SCHOOL OPENS.
Mrs. Davis Has Twenty-one Pupils
on Roll at Present.

The Primary school. with Mrs. Bessie
Davis III charge. opened Monday morn
ing with an attendance OF Il pupils
More will be enrolled i'll few days, as
some have not as yet returned from
their vacations.
The children are taking kindly to
their studies and each day the pupils
are given health talk by the teach
er. The importance of this subject, and
particularly the importance of instruct
ing the little ones in the essentials of
healthful living. cannot be overestmated.
In addition, any child who coughs
will be sent home at once and before
returning must have physicians GER
tifcate that he is not suffering from
whooping cough. 1t is to be hoped that
all parents will understand this matter
fully and that no ohense will be taken
should child be sent home Whoop-
ing cough is quite prevalent and it
should not be allowed to become epi-
demic.
A library OF 50 volumes will arrive
next week for the use of the school.

j. e. HalIett, of Standish, California,
Wants to Know.

Recently THE TIMES published an
article telling Of the arrival of ten
pound boy at the home of Editor Gar
side of the Manhattan Mail, during the
progress OF a dinner to some OF their
friends. The article was read by J. +.
Hallett, of Standish, Calf, who was
misled thereby and addressed the letter
below to Editor Garside, Yerington,
Nevada If anyone can give informa-
tion of Mr.. Hogan to his partner, they
should do so. The letter follows:
Dear Sir:-A partner of mine left
here to 90 to Goldield to make some
collections. He made the collections, or
most of them, and then went to Yer
ington The last heard of him was a
year ago the first of last June, when he
wrote me he would be home in about
twenty days. He was first-class cook
and was employed as such at some place
in Yerington, where he was getting
s. so per day. His name is W. r.
Hogan, and / hope you can get some
trace Of him. dead or alive, for me- He
did not drink nor gamble, and l am
afraid he mas been murdered and robbed.
Yours truly,
