Girls were more punctual in at
tendance at the High school during

made a creditable showing and their
percentage OF attendance Is only
slightly lower. During the semester
122 girls were enrolled and eleven
girls were not absent at all for the
SS days. Eight boys were present
at every session OF the school with
out an absent mark TO their discredit.
Enrolled in the school during the
9emester were 92 boys. The perfect
percentage Of girls was IL and a frac
tlon per cent. whsle nine per cent of
the boys attended regularly.
This afternoon the regular month

at the High school by Superintend-
ent J. A. Carnagey. The Rev. Meyer
Lovitch, rabbi Of Temple Israel. de
livered an instructive talk to the
teachers. HIS subject was "The
