school year just closed has been one
of progress. The results of the super
intendents efforts to cut down abb
sences and hardness have been very
gratifying The average attendance
has risen from "a per cent. in the fall
term to sc per cent in the winter term
and to 80 per cent. in the term Just
closed. The number of cases of tardi-
ness have been cut to less than one
half the number recorded in the fall
of the year. The number of visits by
citizens is commendable.
The progress in studies has been a
pleasing factor in the years work
