SCHOOL CLOSES
Officially Yesterday Morning When
Students Are Given Final Report 4.
Cards-Percentage Of Failures
Small This Year.

Yesterday was the last day of school
for the 1916-l7 term, the students be.
ing at their respective buildings for
about an hour to receive their report
cards showing whether they had pass
ed or not and to bid farewell to many
OF their classmen for the summer.
The percentage of failures this year
IN the grades was very small accord
ing to Superintendent Caplinger's re-
port before the School Board at its
last regular meeting. In the High
School there were many failures in one
or more subjects, the average being
about the same.
The reason given for there being so
few failures among the grade children
was the fact that school was not COM
PEELED to close this year on account Of
any epidemic and thus take the minds
OF the students from their studies.
Only near the last of the school did
there seem any serious nance from
any disease at that time 1t being the
measles.
During the past year the new sys-
tenn of promotion>the midyear-was
introduced. At first there was serious
opposition to the new movement but
after seeing its merits the opposition
melted away. This system proved very
successful and many students are a
half year further advanced in their
studies.
Although the past year was very
successful one in the school, work is
now being carried on to make the
schools more efficient during the next
term.

YOUR PATRIOTIC
DUTY
BUY A LIBERTY
BOND

Danger for the complete success
OF the Liberty Loan turks in over-con-
fidence.
The announcements in the press of
large applications by Institutions and
men Of great wealth are apt t,ssen-
gender the comfortable feeling that
all will be we'll without the efforts of
the small subscribers. This line of
thought together with the idea that
through Observation-Disclosures al
lotments may not be made, must be
dispelled from the mind of every pa
triotic citizen.
1t Is not sufficient that this issue
should be merely bare success. 1t
must be a striking demonstration of
the overwhelming strength of purpose
animating all sincere friends of Lib
erty to bring the war to a speedy and
successful termination.
The eyes of the enemy are watch
ing this preliminary skirmish and our
victory must be made effective by a
truly popular subscription exceeding
MANY TINES the amount offered.
1t behooves every INDIVIDUAL to
let his action be entirely guarded by
the conviction that upon HIS UT
MOST PERSONAL EFFORT depends
the only result worthy of the great
cause which all free men desire and
INTEND to make triumphant. Hest
fancy as to the Importance of the
amount available should not be al
lowed to prevail. The Bonds are in
denominations as low as $50, and all
Purchasers of one of these will con-
tribute their quota towards swelling
the volume of subscriptions.
No thought of the detail work at
tendant upon subscribing to the loan
nfed deter. We will = as we have
already stated attend to that free
of any charge. All that is necessary
is that we receive notification of the
amount desired.

GEN. HINDENBURG NOW HELD UP TO
 INSPlRECONFIDENCE
Prisoners Recently Captured Ex- plain the Reason for The
 Late Retreat.

PARIS, May 4,-There is increasing evidence which shows how the Ger mans are using the name of Field Mar shal ven Hindenhurg in an effort 10 sustain the morale of the German fight ing men which was lowered by their retreat from the Somme front.
 Prisoners recently taken also tell how von Hindenburg continues to be ha,d up to the German population as the man in whom it must repese con, fidence and hope for final victory.
 The recent retreat is explained by the desire of the German command to take up position in the famous Hin denhurg line and prisoners HOW say that when it becomes known in Ger many that the British have turned this position and taken possession Of several miles of it southeast of Arras great depression Will be cause.
 Civilians. as well as soldiers, placed great faith in this line on which they say millions upon millions Of marks have been spent They had been told the line was 50 inyulnerable that the Germans could sit in il for the re mainder of The war.
 , The German class of 1919. il is learn ed is being called up. but is still train ing.
