THE BIRMINGHAM SCHOOL,

The Birmingham School for Girls Bir-
mingham. Pa, opened its sixty-second
year Wednesday. September rs. It's en-
rolment Is the largest in it's history,
registrations having been closed since
the first Of September. Under the pro-
eressive management OF President Aivan
r. Grier Birmingham School has been
conducted through, sixty-one years with
full efficiency and adequate equipment.
Mr.. Grfer's father, DR.. L. G. Grier, in
association with Miss Nancy ]. Davis,
A. NJ. Ia II. D., founded the school with
clear purposes which have never been
obscured--a combination Of character,
culture and competency. Two years ago
Preston s. Moulton. A. B.. Brown Uni
versity. and his wife. became associated
with Mr.. Grier In the work Mt Birming-
ham and In the furtherance Of these
ideals.
Most prominent among those things
promoting the building Of character has
been the establishment OF student gov
| eminent In all phases OF school life, ex-
| cept those having to do with the health
OF the girls. Both dormitories and study
hall have been exclusively under the
charge OF proctors appointed by the stu
dent council. body In turn chosen by
the school as a whole. Possibly most
popular and timely Of all has been the
introduction OF military drill. This Is
held under the direct supervision Of tho
head master on the hockey field in the
fall and spring and in the gym in the
| winter. 1t has done much to correct
| faulty posture as well as to promote
alertness and prompt and silent obedi-
ence. Capt. Paix OF the French High
Commission. who came to Birmingham
on field day to present medals for ex-
cellence, was enthusiastic over the tech
meal proficiency shown.

The north meadow has been trans
formed into a great smooth lawn upon
which the smaller boys frolic to their
hearts delight. Much labor expended
on the tennis court with plenty OF new
material has left It with n fine surface
most suitable for play. The bathing
house has been thoroughly repaired and
the long boardwalk conducting to the
1lmpoff is in better condition than ever.
Besides the high school classes there
are now only three grammar grades al
