NOTES FROM
THE SCHOOL

Almost six weeks of the entire
thirty-two are gone. Has your
child been getting very much
good during these first weeks?
The enrolment is steadily
climbing upward. yet it is not
near complete. The census for
1914, which has just been com
pleted, shows 165 children be-
tween the ages of six and six
teen. When all are in their places
all available space viii be occu-
pied beyond capacity.
The respective rooms have been
honored by a few visitors. May
their number increase during the
coming weeks!
Evidently the potato crop is
ripe and harvesting is in prog
ress. At least the large number
of absentees this week and last
bear evidence TO that fact. Fully
twenty-five per cent of the pupils
of the two upper rooms are alb
sent.
The school board and the jani-
tor reached a mutual agreement
last week. Hereafter the entire
school building will be thorough
ly scrubbed once a month. An
excellent agreement.
Last week the larger girls pro-
cured a basket ball and started
to play. This week they are
playing the game every moment
of spare time they have. The
larger boys have been playing
