OCEAN PARK SCHOOLS
INACCURATE FIRE DRILL
Finding Room for Pupils. Proves
Difficult Task

OCEAN PARK, Oct. 6-Upon recommenda-
ton of Roy Stackus, assistant chief engi-
neer of the Ocean Park fire department, fire
drill has been inaugurated at the Ocean
Park school. Five companies have been or
ganzed among the pupils of the higher
grades. Each company has ats station near
a water plug in the building, to which the
members hasten when the alarm is given.
The plan calls for the removal of the pupils
OF the first and second grades from the build
ing hrst followed by the pupils in the
classes on the upper noors. The drill is
copied from that in use in the schools OF
many of the larger cities.
The board of school trustees has been puz-
zled to provide for caring for the
oyercrowded classes in the local school. In
the first grade sixty-fve pupils are enrolled.
In order to avoid employing an additional
teacher or seeking larger quarters, the trus-
tees decided to divide the primary grade into
two classes. In this way one class will at
tend in the morning and the other in the
afternoon. There are sixty-four more pupils
in the school this year than when the term
opened one year ago.
