The powder workers upon arriv-

their homes in various parts Of the

that today will be a record breaker In

MORE QUARTERS
WILL BE NEEDED

Superintendent Clifford j. Scott
stated at noon today that the public
schools had opened this morning
without hitch While he had not re-
ceived official reports from all at that
hour. he thought the total enroll
ment would reach $4,000. AS about
500 pupils left the schools last year.
this means that 1900 children who
never attended school before were
enrolled today.
The High School as well as many
OF the other schools are over crowded
and additional buildings are impera-
lively needed In some buildings
new rooms Will be opened.
An innovation which, IL is thought.
Will make an appreciable change in
TIE grammar schools Is the arrange
ment Of studies by departments in
the seventh and eighth grades Each
instructor In these grades will have
