Judge James f. Ailshie was in town
the last of the week on legal business
and remarked to the writer that while
business had taken him from Grange
vile for a number of years there was
no place in Idaho where he felt so at
home as in Grangeville and his friends
here were among his esteemed. Since
retiring from the bench the Judge has
built up an excellent practice having
been identified with some of the most
important litigations in the state and
it is rumored has an income from his
practice many times greater than the
salary received while on the bench.
Frank Wyatt passed through town
the first of the week on his way home
up the river. He has been down in

well furnished, plenty of wood and good
things to eat and is taking life easy all
of which will be glad news to Cote

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
OPENED MONDAY
Over Fue Hundred Pupils EnroLed-Music Part of the Daily
Curriculum

cipal R. F. Friedel, Miss Mabelle
Pennock, Miss Minnie Armstrong,
and Miss Katharine Baird, and
teacher of music, Miss Ruth Shep-
herdson.
Perhaps the most noticeable
change in the schedule from that
of last year is in the time set
aside for music, feature which is
certain to meet the approval of
the townspeople. The director of
this work, Miss Ruth Stephenson,
is graduate of the conservatory
of Cranes Normal Institute of
Potsdam, N. Y, who has an un-
bounded enthusiasm for her work,
which leads one to predict for her
a great success in the undertak-
ing. Miss Stephenson will teach
rather than supervise, in daily
periods in all the primary and
grammar grades. In the high
school the time will be given prin-
cipally to chorus work.
Owing to the changes on the
list of text books, authorized by
the State Board of Education, as
recently issued, great many
changes have been made in the
books throughout the grades. All
of these were ordered weeks ago,
and were on hand Monday, ready
for the use of the children. Classes
according to the permanent sched-
ule will begin tomorrow. School
opens at 8 o'clock, dismissing in
the primary grades at 11.3O, in the
high school at AS. In the after
noon the sessions convene at LIS,
and close in the primary building
at 3.15, in the high school at $50,
and in the grammar grades at 3.45.

Newark Public Schools opened
on Monday of this week with a
total enrolment of five hundred
and three, divided as follows: sem
ior class including six commercial
students, completing the work be-
gun last year, 27; second year,
four year course, 20; first year,
four year course, AZ, or a total in
the high school of SO. In the gram
mar school the records show an
enrolment of 242, and in the pri-
mary, 1853. For the last two years
there has been noticeable falling
off in the number of pupils from
outside the district, a fact which
is accounted for by the ruling of
the State Board of Education,
making it necessary for all pupils
so entering to pass an examina
tion, in order to standardize
throughout the state the work OF
the various grades. Of the thirty.
two who presented themselves fo,
this examination a very small pro.
portion received the desired certi
ficate.

in greater part, remains the same

RECOMMENDATIONS
MADE TO COUNCIL
B2ud of He.n Ace in Enforcing Rulings for 7oun Beterment

Activity is the rule of the hour
in Newark Board of Health cir
cIe, the members individually and
on nasse recognizing the need for

hig1lv gratified at the record of
the last eighteen days-two new

the conditions that prevailed six
weeks ago. According to opinion
axrressed Tuesday Newark is off
the black list, and residents stand
in no greater risk of infection
bore than in other towns of Del
aware.
on the CONTRARY the strenuous
campaign being waged promises
"a pIace the town first on the list,
in sanitary rating, among towns
of the Peninsula. At a recent
meeting of the Board a motion
was adopted requesting Council to
make some arrangement for the
collection and disposal of garbage

dressed to Council, to be read at
the next meeting, expressing the
opinion of the Board of Health
that the allowance of water grant
ed each residence, at the regular
rate, be increased from $500 to 3,
