SESSION WILL BE UN-
DER SUPT. CANNON, BEGIN
MING JUNE II.

perintendent r. H. Cannn, Mrs. Ida

tendance should be large enough to
justify it. The session will last at
least II and probably IA weeks. A
tuition fee of So per month will be
charged, and no pupils will be enroll
ed for less time than II weeks, ex-
eept by special arrangement.
