Joseph H. Sawyer, principal of Will

report presented April 30, frankly ad-
mits that eve are not getting the re-
suits in scholarship which were OBJ
tanned here 40 years ago. and prob
ably every veteran preparatory school
principal could say the same, if equal

DR.. Sawyer's explanation of the fact
of common experience:
In that earlier time college prepare.
ton was a very definite matter 1t
was limited to few subjects and to a
clearly specified amount in each. Now
with the larger number of electives
and the wide difference in entrance
requirements..we face conditions that
do not make for accurate scholarship
Formerly pupils knew much about 8
few things; now they know something
about many things, but less about
each.
DIR. Sawyer adds that the willing
ness of the colleges to accept pupils
who are conditioned iH some sub
jects, also embarrasses us. =" Prepare

"I the coat fits y0g, PIT If on. "

The signing of the contract in re-
gard to the proposed railroad improve
ment in this town is not only the
cause of much satisfaction on the part
of the townspeople but is great re-
lief to the members of the committee
that had the matter in charge. The
succession of delays that occurred be-
tween the time the town made the APP
preparation for its share of the work
and the document covering the matter
was finally executed kept alive the
possibility that some unforeseen de
velopment in the New England rais-
road situation might arise to thwart
the entire project. Now that the sig
natures of the town officers and the
railroad representatives have been af
fixed to the contract the ikihood OF
any further postponement is too re
mote for consideration. 1t is true
that the public service commission has
yet to decide the height of the Bridg,
street overpass, but as all the partie
concerned are practically agreed OF
this question there is no reason t,
| suppose that this point will cause an,
| delay The chances are that the worI
of removing the Vernon street ledg
viii start within a very few days an,
that the venerable Brattleboro Hous
will soon be but a memory.

been brought back.
