himself and the child apart"
Referring to Mrs. Elkins' prop
oIty Mr.. Elkins declares that the
former IL in possession OF personal
property, consisting OF rugs, ETC..
which belong to his mother worth
about $4,000. and that she IL en-
1oying the benefits OF all this In
ddition to tho settlement agreed
upon and which he carried out.
OPPOSED TO INCREASE.
Mr.. Elkins says he fought not to
be required to contribute any more
money than he has already con-
tributed and that Mrs. Elkins ought
not to be allowed any more money
han $500 IL month without some
fair and equitable arrangement be-
ing carried into effect as to the
ime that he and his mother may
be allowed the companionship and
society and assist in the future well
fare OF the child" --
1t Is alleged by Mr.. Elkins that the
child is "now mostly left to the COM
partnership of a colored woman who.
while kind and good In her attention
toward the child, OF course. Is not
equipped - give the child that cui-
turc and rearing and learning which
would be possible il his mother were
allowed 10 have him portion OF tn
time in her house and permitted him
the advantage of proper tutoring"
Mr.. ETlxins declares that he Is en-
titled to have the agreement OF May
% last carried out as to the proper

lowed said child. He declares that
Mrs. Elkins as not entitled under
the guise of obtaining additional
money for the maintenance and sup

establishment which she has already
been provided with funds to do.
ASKS FOR CHILD.
Mr.. Elkins asked the court to grant
him the right to have the coMpan-
ionsfiip OF the child during certain
portions OF the year. and to allow II
the opportunity OF visiting his grand
mother and sister as may be deemed
proper. ..,a -.
Mrs. Elkins obtained an absolute d.
yorce June 8 last from Mr.. Elkins
on statutory grounds. :.
According to the agreement OF May
20 last. Mrs. Elkins agreed to accept
100000 in settlement for alimony;
the sum consisting OF bonds guaran-
teed by the Bethlehem Steel Company.

Answering Mrs. Elkins' claim that
$4,000 year Is not sufficient for the
support Of the child, Mr.. Elkins de-
clares at is fully adequate to support
her and to provide for the proper
maintenance for the child as we'll; the
child being between five and six
years of age and" the income from
the bonds amounting to $4,000 per
year, or $500 per month, which Is

REGARDING MlD-YEAR
EXAMINATIONS

Rewards in the way of exemptions
from Mid-year examinations are offer
ed to those pupils having the following
standing:
For tatol exemption: General aver
age of SIS per cent or better, with av-
ersge for no subject below 70 per cent,
and with no absence or tardy marks
(eXcusable if on account of personal
sickness or of sickness in the i'm
mediate family, or if on account of
calamity and if department has at
all times been satisfactory.
For partial exemption: An aver
age of 80 per cent or better in any
subject, with no months grade below
70 per cent in that subject entities ex-
emption in such subject, provided de-
pertinent has at all times been salts
factory.
Beginning Wednesday afternoon,
February 4th, and ending Friday P NJ,
February 9Th, examinations will be
given for the benefit of those who do
not classify under the above heads
In counting the yearly average, the
Mid-year and Final examination grades
will each have the same effect as one
monthly grade. 1t is intended that
thorough reviews be given in eacn
subject which has been taught during
the year, and that all members of each
class be required to give the same at
tention to preparation and recitation,
whether they are or not expecting
exemption.
Those who are exempt from all the
examinations will not be expected to
return during the examinations. If
one has partial exemption, he will be
expected only during the time of the
examination in those subjects in which
he is not exempt. 1t should be re-
membered however, that those who
thus earn a vacation would of right
lose their exemptions il they should
in any way disturb those who do take
the examinations.
In arriving at conclusion regarding
these exemptions, we consider:
A plus 9S; A 95; A minus 92; B
plus IS; 3 So; b minus 80; C plus rs;
c rs; G minus 70; U between so and
70.
We have used every means, we
think, to give every one opportunity
to show up such recoiG A. will ell
title exemption. If some have failed
to present this kind Of data fer the
Mid-year terw, let It be remembered
that practically the same regulations
will obtain exemptions from the ex-
amlnaticns at the close of tho year.
Only it should be stated that the
matter of excuses must be looked after
by each pupil as occasi n arises in
stead of waiting until necr the close of
the term. Furthermore it should he
born in mind that on excuse Is in no
way an excuse unless it shows a
reason. Respectfully, w. A. Cox
