BOYS OUTNUNBER
GIRLS IN CLASS

Since the Tonopah high school be-
came a four,year high school, one
graduating class was composed en-
tirely of girls. one class counted
one lone boy, two classes had two
boys each; five classes were made
happy by the presence Of three boys
each. and two classes reached four
each in enrolment of boys. To
those who have been interested in
the growing interest Of the Tonopah
boys in securing a higher education
than that offered in the elementary
schools 1t will be gratifying to learn
that among those who expect to
graduate next June from the Tono-
pah high school there will be ten
boys-more boys than girls-since at
present there are but six girls in
the class A stn more gratifying
fact is that of the boys enrolled.
Practically every one is laying his
plans for entering the university
after completing the high school
course.
