enrolment, now had to be
maintained for four or five
pupils. Prof. Hollis said:

to comparison with these, pic
lures of the better class of con

In some instances the children

conveyed to school in buses
hired by the district. Views
were shown Of students at work
in the manual training shops,
domestic science rooms and in
other departments where they
were putting into actual pract-
ice knowledge derived from
books. The athletic and social
aspects of consultations were
also illustrated. Teachers in
such schools do better work
and better work is expected of
the pupils. They are not given
a hurried recitation of ten or
possibly Is minutes, but are
given from 80 to 40 minutes.
He compared the grades e
ceived in the same examination
of children from small country
schools, consolidated schools
and city schools. 1t was not
so surprising to note that the
city children had more than

 "A flood of specifications of all kinds of finished materials came to the offices of the steel companies during the last few days of the old year. Seldom, if ever, in the history of the trade has there been such a complete cleanup as buyers were anxious to get every pound of material for which they had contracted
 ''The new year opened under very fa- vorable conditions, with mills and fur naces doing their utmost to meet the con- tinued strong demand The congestion in the east is still very serious, but exporters who are so fortunate as to have vessels to carry products to foreign lands are finding it easier to obtain shipments to the seaboard and during the past week there has been a freer movement from Buffalo and other points.
 "A vast volume of inquiry for steel from the entente allies is still pending, but the high prices asked are having a tendency to check the entering of orders and rep resentatives of foreign governments as- sert that it will not be necessary for them to order immediately, as intuition mak- ing plants in England are turning out constantly increasing tonnages and France is uderstood to have considerable tonnage in reserve. Foreign buyers say that they expect the market to be more nearly normal toward the close of the first quarter of the year than it is al present
 "December's pig iron production shows a gain of 165, 403 tons over November. The output was 3,200,6 tons for December and 29, ,572, ,094 tons for the year, exceeding 1914 by more than 6,500,0O0 but 100000 less than the record production of 1913.
