The Junior High School is now in
| its seventh year and is composed OF
the seventh and eighth grades. Pro
motions in this department are now
lock-step grade plan. The work is So
organized that students of strong alb
ility and a disposition to do extra
work may be assigned work addition
al to the normal assignment. This
plan will permit strong ambitious
student to shorten his time in our pub
lie schools.
In addition TO the regular subjects
of the seventh and eighth grades,
Manual Training and Domestic Sci
ence and Art are provided The aim
of the Junior High School is to in
tensify the work of each subject by
having a teacher specially prepared
to give instruction in various subjects

Junior High is a strong aid in the
realization of this aim.
In the course of construction. spec
ial emphasis is put upon the work in
agriculture, the predominating inter.
est of this community. This work be-
gins in the spring of the year. Spec

ure. In this course the practical
things of farm life are dealt with, such
as farm accounts. selection of seed.
Judging of stock. testing of milk
Much interest is added to this study
by many interesting experiments.
One feature of our Junior High
School work is the general exercises
held in the large assembly room of
the Lincoln Building Two mornings
of each week are devoted to chapel
exercises conducted by some member
of the faculty. the exercise may con
reading of some good article. Often
an outside speaker favors the Depart
ment with an address. These general
exercises have proved to be of in
estimable value to the children for in
spiration and character building AMI
are looked forward to by them with
much interest
The Junior High School is divided
into five divisions. three divisions of
seventh and two of eighth. Those
doing part High School work are en-.
rolled as eighth grade students. Each
division has its class colors. pennant
and literary society. At intervals,
each division gives literary program,
in the large assembly room. Friend
ly rivalry has developed in the giving
nf these programs which has resulted
in bringing forth the very best efforts
of the children.
The Junior High School period is
recognized as n critical period in the
child's moral and phyical development.
II is the earnest endeavor of the fac.
ulty of the Junior High School to help
the child through the trying years OF
his life by instructing him as to his
obligations to society and himself.
This can best be done by instilling
into his mind desire for an educa.
tion and to be an efficient social fac
tor.

The Primary department consists
of the first three grades. There are
two divisions in each grade.
The aim of the First grade is to lay
the foundation for the future work of
the child, not only in his school life
but his social life as we'll
Problems are taken from the child's
real life. Making beds. furniture.
games with toys. money. and measures
are functional ways of teaching num-
bers. Incidental arithmetic is used to
good advantage in language and nat
ure study. There is the danger of
objective as well as too abstract and
so transition is made from objective
to mental reasoning as soon as the
child can visualize for himself Very
little formal English is given.
Second Grade.
The first month of the Second Grade
was principally spent on review. BY
refreshing the children's memories on
their phonics and constant word drill,
the pupils were able to take up Second
Readers at the beginning of October
During the months of October and
November Second Readers have been
used the word and phonetic drill still
occupying a recitation period of twen-
ty-five minutes per day
Counting of numbers. and the read
ing of the same, as well as the com
binations up to ten were thoroughly
reviewed during this period. Com
binations to fifteen and the tables up
to the As have been the arithmetic
work for the past two months.
The language study was mostly or
al, consisting of picture study, re-
production of stories. proper use of
seen and saw" etc, original stories,
language games using correct forms.
and the memorizing of poems adapt
ed to Primary children.
Third Grade.

portant subject in the third Year. 1t

About two hundred and fifty boys
are taking work in the Manual Train,
ing Department of the Delta schools
each week. the work being required
in the sixth, seventh and eighth grade
and optional to the High School stud
ents.
The sixth grade boys are divided
into three divisions. each division tax
ing the work of the department one
hour each week. The sixth grade oe'
ing beginners in woodwork. the kind
OF work done is necessarily quite ele-
mentary The first articles or models
made in this grade are a plant label.
jewel box. etc. The primary purpose
in making these elementary models
is to train pupils in the use of the COM
mon square. etc.
There are three divisions of the
seventh grade also. Two divisions are
making book ends and the other comb
cases Some of the seventh grade boys
have finished their book ends and
have started their second models.
More or less choice is given to the
boys where they have finished the
first model. Two boys are now work
ing on magazine holders and another
is starting a pen tray. The seventh
grade classes are so large this year
that there are not enough benches to
accommodate all in each class at a
time. This congested state deprives
part of the boys of their full time in
the Manual Department each month
The seventh grades take manual train
ing two double periods each week
The two classes of the eighth grade
hlso take the work in this department
two double periods week. The first
model in this grade is taboret Of
unique design. When this first art
icle is finished the eighth grade will
be allowed almost entire liberty in
choosing what shall follow.
The High School is allowed com
plete liberty in their election of prob
lens and are permitted the use of oak
in the manufacture of furniture. There
are present two piano benches. sever
al magazine stands, and numerous
other smaller articles in course OF
construction. The High School also
assists in repair and construction of
playground apparatus and anything
coming under the head of Manual
Training Department that is needed
for the school. In this line there are
at present under construction six
small kindergarten tables which will
be used in the Methodist church, two
large screens for shutting out the
light from long windows when the
school stereopticon is used, and the
apparatus for two volley-ball courts.
Parents of boys taking work in the
Manual Training Department may
assist the Department very much II
they will suggest small pieces OF fur
niture or other things needed at home
which will provide problems for the
boys. by doing so the department
can be brought to n much higher de-
gree of usefulness. Parents are ur
ged to do this.
