the getting of a right
piece of fur.
But how can you know
whether it has been done
properly or not, if some
one doesn't tell you? And
who will tell you? Not

The only way to do the

examine these things for

Colonel Walter r. Daley. president of
the Board Of Education, in his two
addresses at the graduation exercises
of the Boys and Girls High Schools,
in which he urged a 100000 bond

for the express purpose of building
high schools.
