MEsks CONTRIBUTION TO
THE NEWS OF THE DAY
SHORT ON ENROLMENT

The Mesa Union high school and the
grades opened with an enrolment a
little under the enrolment for the first
days last year. Due in the greater
part to the fact that a great many are
busily engaged in the cotton fields.
The corps of teachers are complete,
and the facilities for conducting stu
dies are. being rapidly put in shape.
There is some little delay in books and
supplies for the various schools being
experienced because of the changes
made in the attendance of some classes
in the different buildings.
In the high school up to noon there
were enrolled 165, compared to 21S last
year. OF these so are freshman, 40
sophomores, 33 juniors, 20 seniors and
80 in commercial department. The old
Central school building has been fitted
I'd for the commercial students.
There were 656 enrolled in the pub
lie schools, III attending at the South
building, 314 at the new Central build
ing and 225 at the North building.
The enrolment is increasing slowly.
Superintendent Sherwood is making
4 thorough investigation of students
who failed to pass their grades last
year and who desire to enter higher
grades. He is treating them without ia
vor and considering their individual
need. which in time will be conducive
of better results.

DEFENDANT ACQUITTED

Not guilty, was the verdict rem
dered in less than thee minutes time
yesterday afternoon in the case of
the county against G. A. Goodwin,
charged with assault on the person
OF Bryan Moss some two weeks ago.
The case in court arose as the result
of a dispute between Young Moss
and Manager Goodwin of the air
dome, in which Goodwin claims Moss
was creating a general, disturbance
in the show house. Moss was fin
ally elected one evening and in the
miniature scuffle that followed
grounds are found on which to base
the complaint of assault. The
court trial lasted an hour or two
during which time nearly a dozen
witnesses were examined Evidence
to warrant conviction was quite lack
ing for in almost no time the unan
imous verdict of acquittal was rem
dered
