Public School
Studies and Activities
What Our Children Are Doing
And The Records They
Are Making
High School

Taxpayers, have you seen the 1913
edition of the Miller-Palmer English
book used by the tenth grade? We
know you would enjoy the chapters
on Newspapers and Periodicals, Sour
ees Of information, Choosing a Vaca-
ton, and the Dictionary in use. When
your money was spent for those books
1t was wisely spent.
There are now f~orty-four ninth
grade classical students getting acqu-
ainted with the mysteries of Latin,
Algebra and Ancient History. Of
these Edmund Phillips made the high
est average in September with 87.8
and Thomas Frazer and Louise Gala
han second highest with 81.
During October Thomas Frazer
was ahead with 88.5 and Ed
mund Phillips second with 87.5. Per-
haps 1t is even more important for US
TO know who is making the greatest
improvement on his own work. James
Moore increased his monthly average
by three in October. The Juniors think
their chief contribution to the school
IS in athletics. 1t is true, but they
have leaders in another big school inter
est, scholastic standing. The class
agrees that Muriel Candy, Lillian
Erdner, and James Blasioli lead the
class in this most important activity.
The Seniors in English are learning
to see Americans as the English saw
them in IT'S. Did you former stud
ents ever read, Burke on Concil-
iation'? Wanted-A person with miss
ionary spirit and a little money. You
who are interested may borrow "Will
1t Pay Ne to Go to High School ?" and
can Interview with Harry L. Doherty."
Consider the contents of these leaflets
and the interests of the community.
You may decide to invest 10 cents for
a copy. Mr.. Doherty says in part:
Our national vice is extravaganza.
How long will it take me to get rich
if Icontinue to spend everything / get?
Opportunity is not apt to stop and
knock at the door of the man who is
but an Indifferent workman. The
great majority of the rich people of
to-day We're the children of the poor
people of a generation ago. People
ask, what is the greatest problem
which confronts this country" An
swering the question broadly | would
say, it is the difficulty of getting our
people to think seriously and think cor
irectly. Seven girls and three boys

 Prices were reactionary. from the outset, contrary to the hopes of those traders who sought to extract de- gree Of comfort from easier rates Tor demand loans and the failure of the federal reserve bank to advance lnter- est and discount quotations.
 This action of the Clearing House in limiting the interest rate on de- Snand balances was accepted, how eyer, as a prelude to further restric- tive measures by the central bank, es- peciaIly as affecting commercial dis counts.
 Minor oils and unclassifed special ties again featured the initial decline but the movement soon comprehended high priced oils and affiliated issues, notably Motor subsidiaries and ship. pings.
