On account of exposure to cases OF
scarlet fever among students of the
High school the city board OF health has
closed that school until Monday, March
9. Another announcement will be made
in the papers next week depending upon

Certainly, it is misfortune that the

necessary that all cooperate to prevent
what could easily become greater ca
lamity to the whole community in the
form of an epide: l:c.
High school students, stay at nome
Go in the open air, but not down the
streets. Stay apart as far as possible.
In case of sore throat have a physician
examine you at once. Battle well and
change your clothing today, and often
during the week. Review all your
studies diligently and make yourselves
thorough on all the work Of the last
three months. The examination will be-
gin on the first day of your return.
Phone your teachers freely for any as
sistance or SUGGESTIONS. They will be
very glad to help you.
The debate and the basket ball games
planned between you and Clinton High
