SCHOOL NOTES.

A number of inquiries have been
received relative to the number of
children in school compared with
last year. These questions have no
doubt been prompted by discussions
on the new school house. The en-
|rollment for the past week was 412
land last year for the corresponding
week it was 407. The attendance
for the past week was 375 against
|341 for last year. The records show
that many more pupils moved away
during the first two months of
/ the term than have moved this year.
fThe pupils moving in, however, are
about the same in number. The in
creased daily attendance is chiefly
Zin the high school and the first
grade. There has never been SO
barge high school within the his
fory of the school. There is now
pm enrolment of SO and still we
hear of more who will enter soon.
There are many indications to prove
fhat this increased attendance is
que largely to the new school build
ing.
Recently the high school boys and
iris organized an athletic associa-
Ion for the better promotion of
thletics in the high school. With
pc hope of having a gymnasium for
|ames within a few months, large

AIR BREAKS WORK WELL.

The test of running a train of thirty

worked successfully. This is the larg
est train of loaded cars that have
been taken down. Several repres-

present, besides some railroad offic-

would save much inconvenience in
setting out cars at this place on over
loaded trains.-Reubens Citizen.
