A new manual training room has
been built and we'll equipped. Nine
teen boys are enrolled for the work
under the principal as instructor. A
domestic science sewing class has
been organized with fifteen girls en-
rolled in the work which is progress
ing finely under Miss Martha Howell
as instructor.
Agriculture is being taught in the
grammar department but will not be
taken up in the High school this year
A nice large supply of library and
supplementary books have been ord
cred for the library and we feel that
! that ought surely be appreciated by
all. There is nothing like having a
good library for reference and plenty
| of good material to work with.
Another month has been added Il
the school year making nine months
school.
The course of study followed is il
accordance with the Oskaloosf
schools and we expect to be accredit
ed according to state requirements.
With the hearty support and CO op
Grafton of all our patrons we hope II
make this the most progressive yea
for the Rose Hill school.
We extend to all a cordial invita-
ton to come and visit our schools anC
see what we are doing.
1t is an incentive to do good worl
Where the parents take an interest II
the education or their children.
We are feeling confident that NJ
department of the community is en-
titled to more consideration than the
boys and the girls who are in oul
schools.
Literary societies have been organ
lied in the High school and Grammar
departments.
| Some open programs will be giver
during the year and the proceeds user
for the benefit of the school.
The school will also undertake tt
hold a lecture course here this win
! ter. We invite you all to come out tC
our programs and lectures. The pro
= eeds will be used for a piano.
! We are cramped for funds anC
things do not progress as rapidly al
we would like to see them, but WI
feel that in the near future we will
have as good a school and as wei
equipped as any in the county.
| We trust that every one will boos
for our school and help US make 4
what 1t should be.
Come and see us.
Yours in the interest of your boys
and girls.
Mrs. Emma J. Breiting, Prin.
