able conditions row prevail ing and the
advances in scholarship, membership
and regularity OF attendance. The sta
tistics are that we have a total Of $50
pupils enrolled In the high school we're
90 boys and 108 girls, I08 of this num-
Der being tuition pupils Average at
tendance IN high schaol was 1856, for
total attendance an average Of $50 Of
enrolment, 1913 boys in the eraies and
AZ from the high school took manual
training, while Id girls in the grades
and So in high school availed them
selves of domestic science training. Two
of the Junior class girls made their
party dresses, having acquired the fa-
cility to do so from this instruction.
Many people availed themselves of
the privilege of inspecting the manual
training and domestic science exhibits
at the high school Wednesday after
noon and evening Too much cannot
be said in praise Of these departments
and the practical efficiency resulting
therefrom. We trust that the passing
years will see them enlarged and per-
fected up to the point where our boys
and girls may leave their alma mater
as skilled artisans ready 10 take up life's
physical work and fill our homes to be
acceptably and well.

workmanship in the manual training

ourette. Both articles of furniture are
now on exhibition at the Kuebler store.
