ADOLPH MEYER.

An impressive as we'll as a pleas.
ing ceremony took place last Thurs
day morning at the morning exercises,
when the pupils who had made sue
cessful scores in the Athletic Test
last School year were awarded the
pins and buttons as reward The
principal took this occasion to con
graduate the pupils on their success
and to encourage them to keep up the
very excellent work that had been
done during the last year.
Our enrolment mas now passed the
800 mark, with quite a few more yet
to enter. We are very proud of the
growth of our school, and have every
reason to believe that it will still con-
tinue to grow.
Miss Albert, Supervisor of Music,
spent the day with us on Wednesday.
Miss Griffith, Supervisor of Physical
Training, was also with us for a part
of the day on Wednesday. This year
Miss Griffith will visit us every three

great pleasure.

cient teacher of the Fourth Grade,
was i'll two days during the past week.
We are glad to have her again with

attendance are contributing factors in
the promotion of pupils.
Success in any line of work calls
for self sacrifice on the part of the
individual and this is no less true in
school life. SO it is well that pupils
realize that success or advancement
to a higher grade can be attained only
through constant and daily applica.

execution of duties assigned to them
either in the classroom or for home
Dr. Wymer visited our school last
Wednesday and vaccinated all the

MANY TOURISTS

More tourists have gone through
this city during the past week than
any week during the past summer.
Gasoline and service stations report
that there has been a great increase
in the number of itinerants.
This is accounted for by the fact
that everyone is beginning to return
home. Those who have been touring
all summer, those who have been in
the government parks are all starting
toward their respective homes before
cold weather. Cars from all parts of
the country have been noticed going
through this city and most everyone
who was questioned stated they were
going home. The great government
parks are rapidly emptying them
selves according to a number of the
tourists.
