Cities Report
Prices Decline
In Every Line

Boston, Sept. 2S. Apparently
the historic dollar bill will go
slightly further in the retail
stores to-day than 1t did a matter
OF eight months or a year ago.
Whether it can be stretched any
more to-day than it could four
months ago say early in the
summer-is a question.
Certain it is that certain sta
pies, though patheticalIy few in
number, have dropped in price.
Sugar, for example. is at last
selling in the retail stores at
from II to 20 cents a pound in
Greater Boston, although the vi
cnity continued to pay near the
top prices for weeks after the
slump was in full effect in New
York and elsewhere.

There will be a vacant chair

guests invited to attend the El
Paso international Exposition and
Military Carnival. It's no other

Villa was invited 20 attend the
exposition by Norman Walker
while the latter was in Chihua

Villa would be very glad to
come and attend the exposition,
he told Mr.. Walker, but he had

The seventh grade, under the
able leadership of Miss Layer, is
doing some very fine work in
drawing and color work. This
grade will surely be ready for
the art exhibit next May.
Last Tuesday, Mrs. Gumm took
her class in civics to the Repub-
lican county convention, to see
how things were done in a prac.
tical way. Miss Neff took her
class in Spanish, third year Span
ish, to the same convention, to
test their ability to understand
the Spanish language as it is
spoken. This is a good idea and
we believe the students learned
something that is not likely to be
learned from books only.
Mrs. Greene is going ahead
with her work in a business-like
way. She is making strict
examination of all the pupils
along all practical lines. Her
work is making a big showing.
Pupils are coming to school with
cleaner teeth, cleaner hands and
