The men have worked for the completion of the building and the offices of the women and children are to furnish and beautify. The schoolrooms and auditorium are large, well ventilated and well adapted to light and sunshine. The grounds slope gently from the building with here and there native shade trees. When the flower beds and hedges have been planted it will be an ideal park, and a great neighborhood attraction, so much more is being done for the schoolroom today, the advantages for the pupil are more varied and inducements offered are far more conducive to active interest in the school work, rendering school days more inviting than in the past Compare the accessibility of the school today with that of yesterday; then the boy went to school,

 Worlds Biggest Clock
 Big Ben," the worlds largest clock, one of the sights of London as 1t tolls the hours from the tower at the eastern end of the Houses of Parliament, is to have its first real cleaning in 10 years. Lest any American should be found who contests It's claim to be the world 8 biggest 1t should be pointed out that the American clock with a bigger face has only one dial whereas Big Ben has. four. If all the power of Big Ben 8 works were concentrated on one face it would drive the hands of a dial of 40 feet instead of its present g feet or the 24 feet of the American clock.

 Some idea of the magnitude of the task of overhauling can be obtained from these facts: The clockroom is 1S0 feet up. The minute hands, which are copper, are IA feet long and travel 100 miles each year. and the hour hands are ninefeet long and weigh heavier.
