ing with an attendance of about 80 pupils. Classes at the other schools in Berlin and Kensington will begin a week from today. Superintendent of schools J. W. Dows found it ad- visable to start classes a week earlier at the Worthington school, which is also known as the Model school, so that the teachers would be able to receive instructions as to methods employed by the local instructors. The teachers at the Worthington school this year are Miss Ann Scollon, Miss Edna G. Bugbee' and Miss Rose Nelson. Miss Scollon and Miss Bug bee taught at the school last year, Miss Nelson being new teacher. Miss Nelson last year taught at Mad ison and comes to Berlin highly rec commended as an instructor.
 Although all the teachers will have to report for duty on Monday morn ing, September 10, the children will not have to be present to answer the roll call until the following day. On the opening day, MT. Dows will be present at the Kensington Grammar acnool and will outline his plans for the coming year. The morning ses- sion will begin at 10 o'clock and in the afternoon the teachers will at tend the Berlin fair in a body.
 There will be but few changes in the local teaching force this year. Mrs. Inex Crane, who taught at the Kensington Grammar school has been transferred to the Persival school, while Miss Mildred E. Aspinwall, who conducted the classes at the Percival school last year, will be at the Ken sington school this year. Miss Dor tohy HorsfaTl of New Britain, who has has been competent teacher at the Kensington Grammar school for the past two years, has notified Su- pervisor Dows that she will not teach here this fall and Miss Margaret Da- win will replace her.

 there will be enough room to accom-
 modate all the children.
