The second instalment of the Tissot
Bible pictures, at the church Sunday
night, attracted large and interested
crowd. The pictures were especially
fine, and the accompanying discourse
by Rev. Leitch was very good indeed.

stereopticon working well, and it shows

had an unusually good growth this

probably have checked the growth to ;
some extent, but still there will be !
fine crop. 1t is also little earlier than
usual. {

from the county examinations in the c

very well indeed. Three failures were d
oPoi tcOy bui SOiHe VI llltii were VI pu-
oils who had been behind. and only took t
chance to catch up. The grades in the v
'egnlar eighth grade class were very 8
good indeed A different system of
marking was apparently followed from =
hat used in Blaine county. where aver c
Ige grades of SO and upwards were re- t
ported. Only one pupil was conditioned y
rom Richfield, and with that one, it
vas in only one study, the other studies h
aving been good enough to call for the +
uperintendent's making the suggestion Il
hat a special examination be given to hi
nake it up. In all. the work of the d.
'ichfield school seems to have been re- OF
1arkably successful; probably much 81
