The September Nevada Educational
Bulletin says that this is the year for
the five district Institutes to be held
according to law in zach OF the five
supervision districts. Attendance is

Top districts to the third supervision
district The territory under Mr..
Whiteley's official jurisdiction other
wise includes Eureka, Lander and
White Pine counties.
Recent legislation has increased
the compulsory school age to IS
years in Nevada, says the Bulletin.
The consequent increase in high
school enrolment will for the most
part include those who will want
some form of Industrial training. and
while no less emphasis should be
placed upon the cultural aud aca-
demic studies now being offered TO
meet the demand of those pupils WHO
them, a greater emphasis will
now have to be placed upon the prac-
teal and vocational studies to meet
the needs OF the increased enroll
Inent Of pupils who will desire TO
lake these A larger emphasis should
also be given to the social studies
and the trimming for good citizenship.
The principal topic OF discussion at
the formidable meetings in the high
school section of the several district
which will be held this fall
be the new high school courses

especially observed by the principals

sage to former service men during
his Sabbath activities at the pecan
side at Atlantic City, n. j., last Sun
day. when he delivered an address
to veterans OF the fifth division of

what you and your division did at
the Mouse. All America Is proud of
what our soldiers did in the war"

The men who came back wound
ed and impaired deserve the fullest
aid in our power to give. and I pur-
pose to use all influence | have to see
he gets 1t. But I am not so much
concerned with those who came out

in your welfare.
II am not unmindfui OF the jol
you did over there. / am not unmind
full OF the service you rendered undeI
your former commander. and I asl

service. There Is still greater ser
vice to be rendered in establishsn,

cmy from within.
Il want this to continue as n,
