PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES

The auditorium has been fitted up with new lights of the latest and best make. We hope to have lighting of the best from now on.
 Rooms 9 and 10 have been supplied with enough copies of St. Nicholas to furnish reading matter for the Eng fish classes in those rooms. This is one of the best magazines to be had, and we hope to see good results soon from it's introduction.
 We have tried hard to interest the pupils in reading newspapers, but they claim the reading matter is not inter esting to them
 Our high school pupils are working the town with our survey and are get ting some excellent answers. We ap- preciate the spirit that seems to prompt our friends who are so kindly helping us get in touch with condi- tons. We hope every one who is ap- preached will take time to answer all the questions as fully and as fairly as he can, for in this way only can we
 
 patronizing public.
 The cooking class put on soup sale last week and realized enough to buy an electric iron for the sewing class. A light was installed in the sewing room, a much-needed addition.
 Sometime ago we noted the fact that Alice Purifoy had swallowed pin. For some time the whereabouts of the pin were as much of mystery as the fate of the Bremen but last week the doctors found and extracted it. It had buried itself in the vocal chords. We fear Alice's voice is per manently injured by the accident.
 Only those seniors who make at least B on department are to have privileges this year. And B is about as hard to get nowadays as A.
 Only three new pupils this week: Arlie keathley, Ira Belle Monroe and Roy Logan. This gives us 13 pupils in a room without teacher. Grace Clanton has nominal charge of the room.
 It you want to see boys sewing, visit room 4 late in the afternoon. One boy is fast becoming an expert seam- ster.
 How do you feel about the public school? Is it serving you as you think it should? Is its course of study sat isfactory to you, it's government, it's standards? If it is or if it isn't, say so on the blank that will be furnished you. We are not asking for compli- ments, nor are we particularly hungry for criticism, but we do want the facts We want to serve you in the best pos sible way.
