THE MARKETS


Wheat continues to be an uncertain
proposition, and as in the past month,
there seems to be no way of making
good guess as to which way the mar
ket will turn, for the simple reason that
world conditions are far different from
tnat experienced by any of the present
generation. For the first time in the
history of the coast there are no boats
to carry wheat.
The egg market seems to be on the
climb, with "a cents offered in Port
land by some firms, while others quote
30 cents. Several houses in the city
are today paying 30 cents cash for
fresh eggs and No. candled are quoted
at 80 cents

PROMOTION in SCHOOLS.

The semi-annual promotions in the
elementary schools Of the city were
made yesterday. Through Superin-
tendent Clifford J. SCOTS adjustment
of the curriculum, the promotions
were placed upon a new and more
satisfactory basis. and the number of
pupils repeating their grades will be
greatly reduced.
AT the High School the mid-year
examinations were not concluded un-
til yesterday. Principal A. H. Berlin
and the faculty were busy getting the
roster for promotions in shape to
make the change early on Monday
morning. Superintendent Scott is
greatly interested in the introduction
of the new two-year course. This
course Is not elective in the sense
that pupils may themselves choose it,
as is the case with the four regular
courses. To the contrary. pupils will
be assigned TO It. if upon the judg-
ment of Superintendent Scott. the
principals and teachers. 1t is the con-
sensus of opinion that that is the
course best fitted TO the present and
future needs of the children.
While It is too early TO determine,
from the schedules as they were
handed in at the Office OF Principal
Berlin, il is believed that the per-
centage of promotions at the Will
mington High School will be higher
than usual. The entering class from
