BEAUTIFYING THE GROUNDS.
The league hopes during The yea
to draw up a plan for planting tn,
grounds in approprite trees and shrub
berry. We believe it better to form a
definite plan for planting the ground.
and then follow it out, than to do pro
miscuous planting without due regard
to the effect when the trees and shrub
| berry have matured. Lying by tn,
railroad as 1T does this ought to bt
made beautiful and attractive place

THE LIBRARY.
We plan to enlarge our library, moi
| alone for the benefit of the school but
! that it may serve the town as we'll
We need first a standard reference
encyclopaedia which We hope to pur-
chase soon. We hope to add
during the year many other valuable
books. Books donated to the library
will be greatly appreciated.
1t is our purpose to add scientific
apparatus from time to time to the
equipment already on hand so that
the work in our science course may
be done in satisfactory manner.
In brief we hope to encourage and
help the work of the school in what
eyer way we can.
