the grades of the High school.

I'VE hardly know how it has been
done, but under the inspiration of
Miss Keatley the children have bought
a sewing machine, procured ironing
boards and an electric iron and al
ready the keenest interest is manifest
in this very practical subject, result
ing in some very creditable work al
ready on display in the sewing room
In East Americas, with only the
two first primary grades, taught by
two of our best teachers-right here
let be congratulate the board on hav-
ing so many teachers of that kind, 1.-The
best"-the industrial idea is encourag-
ed by school gardening and in beauti-
flying the grounds. Trees, shrubs and
flowers have been planted, but the
most significant thing is that a half
acre of the grounds has been fenced
and the land prepared for planting a
fall garden.
This school proposes to sell veg
etable to raise a fund for further
beautifying the grounds and the build
ing.
I'm Prospect Heights we have the
ideal location for a primary school.
Here, overshadowed by magnificent
trees, the homes of squirrels and of
all our native birds, it does not take
much of a stretch of the imagination
to people them with fairies, and the
teacher there, Miss Keith, surely
knows the way to fairyland, and is
on the best of terms with the fairies
who come at her bidding to please the
little ones of her school. The COM
munity spirit is fine. The teacher has
visited her pupils in their homes, and
the parents have returned the visit at
the school,
THE natural beauty of the place has
been improved by the helpfulness of
the neighborhood. Fertilizer has been
given and one friend sent his horse
and pillow to prepare the lawn for
flowers and grass. With a long long
schools, l do not remember to have
seen quite so much interest and en-
| thusiasm."

INTEREST AND ENTHUSIASM MANIFESTED
AMONG STUDENTS IN AMERICAS SCHOOLS
Given Mathis In
Keeping Handsome Buildings in
in Beautyng Spirit by
and
erintendent and Board.

The Americas public school system
possesses now four handsome new
and modern brick buildings which can
easily provide accommodation for g.
500 pupils, or several hundred more
than at present attend these four
white schools. The city has thus
builded wisely, and it will be long
while, comparatively ere another
building will be required. These four
buildings, located in Rees Park, Fur
low school campus, Prospect Heights
and East Americas, are alike the pride
of the people of Americas, and CT
the pupils as we'll.
Just now the school grounds are
being beautified, the campus of Fur
low school having been laid off by a
landscape gardener, and flowers and
trees will soon add beauty to the sur
roundings. The same is true of the
other school grounds.
In his report to the Board of Educa-
ton a day or two since, Supt. Mathis
stressed the spirit of progress mani
tested in the schools. A part of this
report is of much general interest, and
is given herewith:
Under the many interruptions over
which We had no control the schools
have done and are doing remarkably
we'll. A new school spirit has been
developed, growing out of an emula-
ton among the several schools to ap-
pear to the best advantage both in
the school surroundings and in the
school work. At Furlow school there
has not appeared single DETACHMENT
as the wilful act of a pupil, but on
the other hand all take a pride in
the building and a movement is on
foot to raise fund to buy pictures
for the halls and corridors.
"At the High school the same care
of property is observed. Without any
assistance from the Board of Educa-
ton, sewing has been introduced in a
