School Notes

The annual moving period is
making some difference in the ap-
pearance of the school. Some of
the familiar faces are gone and a
few new ones have appeared.
The monthly report cards are
distributed. 1t is hoped that pa
rents will carefully note the stand
ings, sign the card and start it
back as soon as possible. Any
mark below Is indicates unsatis-
factory work.
Mr.. Wheeler, the president Of
the Board, visited school Wednes-
day. The teachers think he was
around to see how many deserved
an advance. They are probably
correct. 1t is certainly proper for
the Board to have first hand knowl-
edge of what is going on before ex
pressing an opinion so important
as that Of reelection.
The second division of the senior
class held their debate last Friday
on the question: Resolved that
the present naval policy should re-
ceive the support of public opinion.
The affirmative, supported by Roy
Beecher, Josephine Sternhagen
and John Cary won two to one.

Mrs. Patrick Breen, who under

that she also had cancer of the

caused her death. Mr.. and Mrs.
Breen lived for several years west
of Scotland, but moved to Stanley
