MCDONOGH No. 4.

1t is with regret that we report
robbery in our school. Who
would have ever dreamed of such
thing? On Wednesday morning
before the school was assembled. the
news spread like wild fire that the
school had been entered during the
night. All teachers desks had
been ransacked and contents strewn
around, several clocks. new scissors,
and various other things were taken.
The School Savings Bank was car
ried off, broken open, and its con-
tents in cash and stamps taken.
The police are still working on the
case.
We are glad to see little Joe Will
more back at school although he is
still carrying his arm in a sling.
All of our teachers were kept
busy attending special meetings at
the Behrman Gymnasium.
Since promotion time is fast
approaching, we publish this clipping
from one of our latest magazines
and hope that it will teach helpful
lesson for future guidance.
Who Docs The Promoting?
Dainty dressed and altogether
charming, she entered the school
room as the years work was. draw
ing to a close. 1t was her first
visit to the schoolrOom, and so she
had to introduce herself to the
teacher-she was Peter Van Han
sons mother.
peter is afraid he is not going
to be promoted" she began smiling
ly, and l thought l would come and
talk it over with you. Both his
father and I are so anxious to have
him advanced and not lose a year.
"Yes?" The teacher was non
committal. Peters fears for his
promotion were well grounded.
Now hope you are going to pro-
mote the child" his mother went on
at is very unfortunate for children
to be held back and he is getting to
be such big boy; he is really very
sensitive about it,

| unfortunate. and l would like tC
promote Peter if could, but I dom
do the promoting
ooh, is that SO? I thought the
matter was entirely in your hands
Whom must I see? Who does the

"The children do all the promot.
ing; you will have to see Peter?"
What do you mean?"
'I mean that the promoting is mo-
thing that is done at the end Of
the year by the teacher; it is done
all through the year by the pupils
each for himself. Most of my chill
dren have been as busy as bees al
the year, promoting themselves; {
few. Peter among them have done
nothing but play. You know have
written to you several times during
the term asking you to come and SEE
me about it."
YES, I know. but 1 have been Sc
busy that I simply couldn't find the
time to come"
"Well, l have done all that know
how to do. not only for Peter, bu
for all the children as well, and
will do all I can for them always
