Leave his girl behind.
Louis Jost, who lives at 2152 w.
Harrison street, and who is 10 years
old, loved the girl across the street,
Elizabeth McGill, who is 9, but their
parents frowned upon their marriage.
So after struggling against that
terrible enemy to true love, parental
opposition, for long time, Louis de-
cided to go to war, and he wanted
to get right in the forefront Of the
battle, so that he might be shot down
by Mexican greasers as fitting re-
venge on cruel parents who had tried
to blast his romance.
Yesterday he met Elizabeth at the
appointed place. He bid her the
usual soldiers farewell Of course,
though, Elizabeth began to carry on
in the usual weak, womanly waysand
create scene.
She said that if Louis went, she'd
go, too. This was a puzzler for
Louis. But finally he agreed to take
her along and try to induce Gen.
Wood to give her a job as nurse OF
some thing. And so they started.
A long time they rode. Their minds
ran to being threatened by Indian
tribes, but Elizabeth was with SOL
der, so she didn't mind. They
imagined wild animals would appear
and worry the engineer, but Louis
knew he could kill off few of them

Two seniors, Misses Sadie Jordan,
and Mary Summers, will be ready for
graduation in January. 1t is probable
that they will be good teachers. TWO
others who are doing senior work,
entered school late, and so will COM

On Wednesdays both classes have

One noticeable thing is the inter-

They respond to all calls for re-
hearsals and are developing singing
ability in a very satisfactory man

IN the cast half of the yard.
Tie woodshed that Mr.. Griggs
built this fall will serve a good pur-
pose as a much needed storage room
for janitor's supplies, as well as a
place for wood.
The building, on the whole is in
good condition Some evaporating
pans over the furnace, to moisten
the hot air would be a very good
thing.
Books for Model School
The books in this school are get
ting old. Some of the first and sec
ond grade readers are gone up"
This year the fourth grade is the
largest class in numbers. 1t is also,
by far, the largest fourth grade class
we have had We are very snort
in books for this grade. In fact, We
shall be unable to do satisfactory
work with them in Reading partlc-
ularly. unless We get some new
books. They also need an elementary
text for use in Arithmetic. The
books for the Model school are not
very expensive, and l recommend
that we increase our equipment
therein.
Spirit of the Training Schoo!

exception, very earnest and faithful

improvements Made


improvements Made
To prevent the furnace smoking,
and to improve the heating capacity,
extensions to two chimneys were
made.
The walls in two rooms were bad
ly cracked and very black from
smoke and dust and it was neces-
sary to kalsomine them. Other walls
need same treatment next season.
There being no fuel room, the
board caused a frame Wood-hoGse -
be built at the rear of the building,
the janitor doing all Of the work
without extra compensation
A small amount was expended IN
improving the grounds by setting.
shrubbery and trees. More needs to
be done.
The course of study is being ex-
tended to include instruction in agrl-
culture and Domestic Science. To
make that work profitable, we rec
ommend that your Honorable Body
at this session appropriate at least
5000 for starting an equipment for
industrial training.
A limited amount of apparatus and
working material are indispensable
for this extension of the schools use
fulness
You gentlemen are, perhaps, not
all aware that at the Ladysmith city
election held July last the office OF
CITY Superintendent of schools was
abolished and Ladysmith became
part of the school system of the
county. and that the city schools are
thus placed under the supervision or
the county Superintendent. By so do
ing twenty-five more teachers, one
fifth of the former number, are add
ed to the Superintendent superVls-
DRY work.
Further; by this change the city
of Ladysmith will be obliged to pay
it's pro rata Of the superintendent 5
salary; will be given it's vote in the
election of that officer.
Conclusion
All reports required by law to be
made by the county superintendent
have been made. The library BOOKS
have been ordered and are now,
believe, in use in all the schools.
Blanks have been supplied to all
teachers through this office, and
teachers send us full reports month
" as to the classification OF pupils
and the condition of their schools.
II is my aim to assist in placing
teachers in schools for which they
NAV best be fitted, and in most IN
stances We have been quite we'll sat-
isfied with results, although in few.
owing in part to local conditions, 1t
is otherwise.
wish to again acknowledge to the
County Board of Supervisors, school
officers. patrons and teachers, my
sincere appreciation of the hearty re-
snorse. earnest cooperation and as
