The enunciation of the next orator
was, The Journal fancies, the best of

somewhat in oratorical power The
thought of the exercise showed what
pure minded and loyal Americans

and was very worthy effort.
The last speaker presented perhaps
the most carefully worked out exer-

treatment was oratorical and it was
given with some real oratorical power.
Certainly it was worthy of the high
position given it by the judges for it
lacked but fraction of receiving as
high mark as that of first honor.
Not less attractive than the above
features of the program was the mu-

rendered. Miss Perry had charge of
it and won honors for herself and
the other performers.
The decision of the judges was
given by Prof. Robert Dunn of the

SCHOOL REPORTS MARCH.

The reports from the teachers of
the township schools show the fol-
lowing features:-
The average attendance of the boys
decreased Is, while that of the girls
increased 3; the monthly enrolment
of the boys decreased 8, of the girls
2; the total enrolment in all the
schools increased 16-that of boys
II, of girls. 4.
This shows that while a number of
new pupils were enrolled in March,
considerably greater number were
Withdrawn and ceased to attend.
Seven pupils were Withdrawn on
account of parents moving from the
district, eight on account of sickness
and 80 for other reasons.
Nine were received who had at
tended other schools, eleven returned
who had withdrawn on account of
sickness and four entirely new pupils.
These statistics show that for some
reason or other the parents are not
very anxious to have their children
complete the regular years work of
the schools. This fact detracts from
the efficiency Of the schools, and
teachers nor officials are to blame
for it. Parents alone can remedy this
very serious defect.
The boys of district No. 8 had the
best per cent of attendance, those of
No. Is the second best; but the girls
of No. and of No. Is had a better
record than any of the boys.
The following districts had no tar
dy pupils in March, numbers 8, 8, 10,
and IA; while numbers 5, 7, and Is
had but one tardy mark. District s
lhad Is pupils who were neither alb.
sent or tardy, number had 16: in
all the schools there were GA boys
and 40 girls. District number eleven
had one truant. Numbers Z, 8, 8, 12,

the case and seemed unable to cure
it or assure me of cure. l tried sew

advised by a friend who has used

habit which used to PROSTATE me two
or three times year, causing much
discomfort to my family and suffering
to myself.
My brother-in-laW was cured OF
chronic, constipation by leaving Off

come even more fond of it than he
was of the old coffee.
