class passed the passing mark IN
Arithmetic, and nine out of 13 got
100 in spelling examinations. We
weren't able to find out what we
were In grammar and history, but
most OF us don't care to know, be
cause we can about guess.
This item was written little while
after the graduating exercises had
taken place. They were enjoyed by all
There were three songs sung by the

The diplomas were all In a fancy
basket trimmed with blue ribbon. and

got bicycles which they said they
could ride to high school on.
II seems very hard for the boys and
girls that they must graduate 70
leave the school they went to SO
many months and days, but they will
always be welcome to visit the school
or get help from Miss Lantz or the
teachers In anything they are puzzled

say about the evening classes, which
should be OF interest to all readers.
Since ! have enrolled In the printing
department have made great deal
or progress at my regular work and
have not only received BENEFITS from
my own work but also from the crit
icism which Mr.. Walker, the instruct
or, has given me and other pupils.
In fact. have derived more good in
the short time that have attended
this class than have gotten in two
years. at work In print shop 1
hope the school will be open ,or a
longer period next term"
II have derived more pleasure from
teaching the boys OF the evening class
than l get from almost any other
work. This is because the boys at
tending this class are very serious
In their work. They come to learn,
and they do. The class has been ex-
cellent In attendance. and know
that IL the shop was open four nights
a week instead OF two, az now. we
could have two separate classes and
have each one we'll attended. know
this is true, as many OF the students
in my classes this semester also at
tended the first term. and have
been asked several times if arrange
ments could not be made TO have
class on Tuesday and Thursday even
ings, besides having one on Monday
and Wednesday evenings as now"
The evening classes are going to
turn out a paper entirely written and
printed by evening pupils, telling
what they think about the evening
schools, classes and their own work
and how much they have been bene-
fitted by the school.
