SCHOOL NOTES
> 80 80 90 Z

A few minor changes nave been
made in the high school course of
study. Heretofore physics has been
required of all juniors. To conform
with many other schools on the west
ern slope this has been changed so
that the student now has a choice be-
tween physics and chemistry. german
has been dropped from the course and
another year of Spanish added. Those
students who have had one year of ger
man may take Spanish instead pro
vided they have had two years OF
Latin. Commercial arithmetic will
now be given the first semester fol-
lowed by bookkeeping, this is the OPP
posite order from last year. A change
was thought best as a few students
failed bookkeeping on account of not
having had the arithmetic. Manual
training and French will not be given
this year as it is impossible to secure
competent instructors in thse depart
ments.
In looking over the past records we
find that a comparatively small num-
ber of students have taken domestic
science. This year very capable in
structor has been secured and an eff
fort will be made to make the course
both interesting and valuable 1t is
hoped that a goodly numbr of students
will register for this practical subjct.
In order to facilitate matters of reg
istration on Tuesday September 3, it
is desired and students are urgently
requested to appear for registration
at the following hours: Freshmen
and Sophomores from nine to ten, the
Juniors from ten to eleven, and Semi
ors from eleven to twelve. In this
way no student will be detained for
any great length Of time. No assign
ments will be made until Wednesday
morning Wednesday morning at 3
o'clock there will be an assembly.
