School Notes.

Mr.. Irinn, Stute Inspector of
High Schools, spent all day Thnrs-

visited practically every class aud
examined our course of study. lab
oratory and library equipment very
closely. He spoke very compli-
lnentary of the character of Our
work, our standard of scholarship
and the general attitude of our
student body. We are now in the
rank of lat class High Schools and
our students will receive full credit
for l6 units of WORK. The cont
munity should feel very proud of
this fact. Our school last year was
approved as Bird slass High
! School because we lacked sufficient
units of work, teaching force and
equipment. This year we came up
to lst class standards without hav.
ing to spend one year rs 2nd class.
Credit for this is largely due the 10
boys and girls who so patiently
carried their Bird year work at night
last year in order to he able to take
up the 4th year this winter.
The valne of-a I year approved
High School is emphasized when
one of our boys wants to be a
physician, lawyer, dentist or enter
any other profession. In prac,i.
caIly all these professions the boys
must nave II 4 year High School
course in an approved school be-
fore lie can enter these schools to
prepare for his life S work. Now
because Of the splendid patronage
of this community we have u
school in which our home BOYS
and girls may get years of ap-
proved training that is worth Just
rs much aud will carry the same
credit as such work done in any
preparatory school of the state.
Now when your boy or girl finishes
this school they will he entered
