DURING MONTH OF SEPTEMBER
City Schools VIII Open Monday Morning, Sept. 2 and Ar.
rangements For Opening Are Well Under Way
Agricultural College and Fargo College Both Preparing Fol
Opening, Beth VIII Begin Sept. 16

Fargo's various educational institu-
tions will all be opening during the
coming month and there is every rea-
son for believing that the tepms in
! all of them will be very successful.
Probably the greatest number OF
people are interested in the public
schools which will open their doors
on the morning Of Sept. 8, at 8 o'clock.
Superintendent Hoover Is of the be-
lief that there will be a greater at
Z tendance than ever before in the his
tory OF the schools of the city. There
have been many applications from out
side the city, and of course these will
all be compelled to pay tuition.
Should Call Early.
II is very desirable that all parents
who have children to enter in the pub
city superintendent's ONCE which is
located in the Central building between
now and the date of the school OPEN
ing in order that their little ones may
be given the proper credentials which
will entitle them to school as we'll as
to place them in their proper rooms.
The office will be open from 8 in the
morning until 5 in the afternoon, which
will give ample time.

looked, is the fact that the board OF
health requires that every child shall
furnish proof of vaccination,

In addition to the fact that the new
Thirteenth street school building on
the southside will be open for the first
time a good deal Of interest Is mani
fest on the improvements hat nave
been made in several Of the other
buildings, and particularly the Central
and high school, where a great many
changes will be apparent. Many of
the pupils who have been attending the
Central building will find themselves
transferred to the new building and
some of the other grade school pupils
will be transferred to the Central. 1t
will take several days after the term
begins before everything will be found
to work perfectly, but superintendent
Hoover is anticipating 40 trouble. w,

Supply Co., which Is furnishing 1.-The
seats, etc, for the new school building,
says in his opinion there will be no de-
lay on the part of the company that
he represents.
Fargo COLLECT.
we are expecting a very large In
crease in students" said President
Creegan of the Fargo college. In
deed, already we have been receiving
many letters in regard to the opening
of the college, which takes place Sept.
16, and this will be one Of the registra-
ton days. We had an attendance
during the past winter Of Sal and we
are looking for a much larger attend
ance during the coming term. The
college has made some changes in the
faculty of which you have made due
mention and we believe that the stu
dents will find increased facilities for
learning. Our institution while n of
the smaller colleges, is just as thor
ough and up to date as those of more
pretensions, and as | said before we
viii have a great increase in attend
ance."
Agricultural College.
The fall term of the North Dakota
Agricultural college in this city will
begin Sept. 16, and that date will be
the first registration day Of the -erm
With two or three dates following IL
necessary, although II Is hoped by
President Worst and the other mem
bers of the faculty that each student
will be as prompt as possible, so that
the classes may commence right on the
dot. 1t might be mentioned that the
high school and college course will be-
gin on that date, but that the special

IA. During the last fall there were
about 325 in the high school and col
lege course, but it is confidently ex-
pected by those Of the faculty who
have kept in touch on the matter that
there will be a very large increase
during the coming term. In fact,
many letters have been received from
all over the state making inquiries in
regard to tuition, boarding, etc.

ticular pride of Fargo have been gone
over and have been put in the very
best possible condition, so that when
the college opens Sept. 16 everything
will be in readiness.
Athletics in Both.
There will be a football team rep
resent Fargo and the A. G. each and
the boys will be at practice very soon
after the term opens. 1t was stated
last season that there was great ma
terial in each of the places of learning
for the coming season and the old time
rivalry between the college on the hill
an the one in the north may be expect
ed. 1t is expected that shortly after
the two institutions are opened sched-
ules of football games will be
ed. The grounds are being placed In
good order at each of the two colleges
and it may be expected when the term
begins each one of the athletic grounds
will be found to be in well nigh perfect
condition.
The Business Colleges.
An inquiry at the two business col
leges of the city shows that the indi-
cations could scarcely be better. Pres
ident Watkins Of the d. B. c. states
that for some time the letters of in

there does not ppear to be any abate-
ment The attendance last year was
something like 700 and he says that he
will be greatly disappointed If there
are not more than 100 over that mum
Der the coming term which opens on
Tuesday next, with registration day
today, August 81, although there will
be opportunity for registration on
Monday and Tuesday and the other
days at the beginning of the term at a
slight advance. IT never saw the
prospects better said he to The Fo-
rum, and we are consequently very
much pleased over the showing"
President Aaker Talks.
Fl. H. Aaker, president of the Aaker
Business college, in speaking Of the
prospects at his college, said that they
never were better than just now.
From all over the state we are re-
ceiving inquiries as to terms, n the
date of opening. Our college will
open Sept. 3, and registration day will
be Monday, with the other days follow
ing as the same. We have secured the
services of Miss Josephine Freyerison

branches of shorthand and she has all
ready arrived and comes very highly
recommended. We are looking for a
very prosperous year and the fall term
promises to be ar exceptionally good
