MONTHLY REPORT
 OF NEWARK SCHOOL
Superintendent Isgrig Submits Re. port Showing Progress of the
 School Work

Report of the Newark Public School for the month ending Dec. 18th, 1914.
 The term enrolment Is as fol- lows: Boys, 179; girls, 152; total 331. We have these 331 pupils crowded into six rooms, which is too many for this amount of space. As consequence, the work of both teacher and pupil will neces- sarily suffer neglect to some ex- tent.
 The attendance has fallen off some during the closing week of the month. This has been due to the inclemency of the weather. The number of cases of tardiness for the third month was about the same as for the second month, which would indicate some i'm provement along this line as we had an increased enrolment dur ing the third month over the second. Parents are urged to see that their children attend reg ularly and get to school on time.
 Parents are also urged to visit the school and inspect the work being done and offer any sugges- tions for its betterment. We might be able to better instruct your child if you would call on us and explain some of the home conditions.
 Following is the honor roll for the third month:
 First Grade: B. F. Adams, Pearl Cunningham, Lacy Fields, Jimmy Green, Louise House, Ray Hunter, Reba Powell, Jewel Price, George Witt and Dave Witt.
 Second and Third Grades: John Alexander, Denner Clearinghouse, Jesse Crosser, Dolphus Combs, Eva Cunningham, Bert Crowell, Oscar Craig, Pearce Dearing, Grace Drennen, Alta Foster, Bry. an House, Ava Harrelson, Mayme Harris. Mildred Kinman, Ellen

LITTLE ROCK BANK
 ROBBED IN DAYLIGHT
Cashier, Teller and Stenographer Imprisoned In Vault and Ban-
 dits Secure Over $500

Little Rock, Jan. 4.-The bold- est and most daring daylight rob- bery ever witnessed in this sec tion occurerd at 2 o'clock this after noon, when three white men en- tered the Central Bank & Trust Company on Sixth and Louisiana streets, and carried off $3,668 in gold and currency after imprison- ing the teller, cashier and stenog- rapher.
 I. E. Hale, teller, was engaged in counting money in his cage when the bandits entered the bank one of them asking for change for $5. As MT. Hale reached for the money to accomodate the man, large blue steel automatic revol- yer was whipped out and he was told to keep your hands down." At the same instant the other two men had covered Cashier E. E. Walden and Miss Lucille Walden with automatics, and all three were ordered to back into the open vault and fall on their faces. Miss Walden, thinking the whole affair a joke, laughed and refused to comply. She was soon convin- ced of the seriousness of the "hold up' being staged by these three well dressed men, and with her uncle. MT. Walden, and Mir. Hale she compiled with the request. The bandits locked the door and made away with their haul.
 Five minutes afterwards T. B. Ford, III charge of the insurance department of the bank, and Book keeper J. D. Sullivan returned from luncheon, heard the cries of the imprisond trio and released them.
